In an attempt to get around to using more of the samples I had waiting at home, I decided (ill-adviced) to spray 8 Prin Lomros fragrances on skin all at once (I do have a lot of skin) and make shorter reviews for them.

Honestly, had you asked me 2 years ago, I probably would’ve enjoyed Sweet Farewell a bit more. Now, this style of dry, biscuit-like, rice-cookie gourmand has been done so many times, that I was not really interested in Sweet Farewell that much. And given that I wore it alongside many other fragrances, I stopped paying attention to it, so take this review with a grain of rice, no, salt.

I felt like the rice and pandan scents didn’t really come through for me as much as I was expecting based on other reviews, and what I smelled was a lot more common, generic gourmand, bordering on cloying. There is a green, soapy touch, lemongrassy perhaps (probably just pandan), but it was understated in my testing. I was not overly impressed with this one.
