Milky peach, custard cream and vanilla

Pastel Rumours is Sarah Baker's 2024 Eau de Parfum, composed with Chris Maurice and described by the brand as a dreamy, milky peach with a defiant streak underneath. Fruit loops, custard creams and milk are listed as notes, which makes it a playful gourmand. Playful gourmands depend on personal taste, so a vial comes first.

On the skin

How it unfolds

  1. Peach and fruit loops

    Peach leads, soft and round, while fruit loops contribute a bright, candy-like sweetness and ginger adds a faint warm thread. The opening is light and playful rather than sharp and juicy, as gentle as its pastel name suggests.

  2. Milk, cardamom, caramel

    Milk softens the heart into a creamy blur. Cardamom brings a cool, slightly green spice so the sweetness does not clog, and caramel lends a toffee-like roundness. Nothing is sharp here; the effect is a soft focus, like a photograph taken through a thin veil.

  3. Custard creams and vanilla

    Custard creams, vanilla and musks make the base, so the perfume ends as a vanilla biscuit close to the skin. Whether that biscuit feels comforting or too childlike is a question for your own nose, and one that only a few wearings can answer properly.

Testing it

How to test it, for whom and why

How to test it

A soft gourmand for daytime and mild weather, so try it in spring, early summer or autumn. Apply it to clean skin on neck and wrists and let the fruit loops step back before you judge the milk and vanilla. Wear it on a casual day and again on a night out with friends.

Who it is for

Meant for lovers of sweet, cosy scents that do not take themselves too seriously: admirers of vanilla, milk and biscuit accords, and anyone wanting a fruity gourmand that stays soft rather than syrupy. If you look for dry woods, smoke or fresh citrus, this is probably not your corner.

Why try Sarah Baker Pastel Rumours as a sample first

Notes like fruit loops and custard creams are charming on paper and hard to predict on skin, and sweetness differs from wearer to wearer. The 10 ml decant is filled by FragranceGems from the original 50 ml bottle and labelled by us; Sarah Baker is not involved.

Questions

Frequently asked

Are fruit loops really a note?

Yes, the brand lists them in the opening, with custard creams in the base. Together with milk and vanilla they carry the scent's childlike, comforting sweetness.

Is it very sweet?

Sweet, but soft. Cardamom and ginger draw spice lines through the milk, caramel and vanilla, so it stays a gentle gourmand and not a syrup.

Which strength is Pastel Rumours?

It is an Eau de Parfum, lighter and airier than an extrait, which suits its milky character. The vial holds this same strength.

The brand

About Sarah Baker

Sarah Baker Perfumes is run from a studio in East London by two artists, Sarah Baker and Andy Hsu, and it works the way an art project would: every perfume is a collaboration with a different independent perfumer, credited on the bottle, and each is cast as a character in an ongoing fantasy world with its own mini screenplay. Characters this vivid, a vengeful peach, a mermaid's tidepool, a gilded oud, are better met in person. A 10 ml decant is the introduction.

      Duarte Review of the FragranceGems shop
    • Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !

      Rudy Review of the FragranceGems shop
    • Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
