What It Smells Like

She's a Witch by Sorce is a comforting, aromatic gourmand inspired by the cosy home of a kitchen witch. At its heart is the smell of warm Italian pizzelle cookies, delicately spiced with anise seeds and dusted with powdered sugar. Heliotrope, sheer woods and musk add softness and depth, creating a fragrance that feels nostalgic and familiar while retaining an unusual aromatic edge.

The opening is immediately distinctive, with anise taking centre stage. Rather than smelling like heavy, medicinal liquorice, the anise has a brighter, almost herbal quality. It brings a cool, slightly minty freshness to the fragrance, contrasting with the buttery warmth of the pizzelle cookie accord. The result is reminiscent of freshly baked anise biscuits, with a delicate sweetness and a gently spiced character.

As the fragrance develops, the cookie accord becomes more prominent. There is a soft, buttery, almost nutty quality to the pastry, while powdered sugar introduces a light confectionery sweetness. Heliotrope adds a delicate powdery facet, with a subtle almond-like impression that complements the baked-cookie character. The anise remains present, but begins to blend more closely with the sweeter elements.

In the dry-down, sheer woods and musk create a soft, warm foundation. The buttery sweetness settles into a more intimate, powdery skin scent, with the aromatic anise lingering in the background. The result is less like a freshly baked biscuit and more like the comforting warmth left behind after spending an afternoon in a kitchen filled with the smell of baking.

One of the most interesting aspects of She's a Witch is the way it balances anise with a familiar gourmand profile. The anise is quite prominent and may be divisive, particularly for those who dislike liquorice-like or herbal notes. However, it is precisely this contrast that makes the fragrance stand apart from more conventional vanilla and cookie perfumes.

Overall, the fragrance feels like a batch of warm pizzelle cookies dusted with powdered sugar, with aromatic anise, soft heliotrope and gentle woods creating a cosy, slightly magical gourmand.
