Reviews of FragranceGems, the shop behind NicheGems
The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all...
The composition
The curve shows the order in which the notes come forward, not their strength.
On the skin
The top starts with fior di latte, cocoa butter and heliotrope, with sweet orange zest and frangipane adding a gentle lift. Mohea vanilla is already present, and the brand pairs the milk and orange with delicate vanilla. The opening is creamy rather than sharp: milk and butter come before the sugar.
Cocoa flower and chocolate make the heart, with dark chocolate adding a little bitterness against the sweetness. Fior di panna brings cream, while roasted hazelnut and dates add roundness and tonka bean adds warmth. This is the richest part of the perfume, close to a dessert in feel.
The drydown is where the brand's own words fit best: a soft, sugary cuddle of brown sugar, caramel and toffee, with vanilla bean, benzoin and white musk underneath. Barrel-aged rum adds a warmer, boozy note. The extrait concentration keeps all of this sweetness dense rather than airy.
Wearing it
Sugar Kisses is sweet and creamy, so one or two sprays are enough. Apply to the chest or wrists and let the milk and cocoa warm on the skin first. It is at its best in cool weather and in the evening, but it also suits an easy, casual day when you want something comforting.
For people who love gourmand scents: milk, chocolate, caramel and vanilla in a soft, rounded form. It is listed as unisex. It fits cosy evenings, autumn and winter days, and anyone who wants a perfume that feels like a treat rather than a statement.
Sugar Kisses has a personal story behind it, a gift from its creator to a little girl, and it shows in the soft, careful build of milk, cocoa and caramel. It was made by Lorenzo Pazzaglia himself and handcrafted in Italy, in the brand's Gourmand collection.
Questions
Yes, it is a gourmand scent built on milk, chocolate, caramel and cane sugar. Dark chocolate and roasted hazelnut take the edge off, but it stays clearly sweet and creamy.
The brand describes it as a tribute to the pure shades of childhood, made as a gift for a little girl on her eighth birthday. The box carries the dedication.
Cool days and evenings suit it best, from autumn through winter. It also works for a quiet night in or a relaxed dinner. In high summer, one light spray is plenty.
This listing is the 50 ml bottle. Because it is a rich extrait, one or two sprays are all you need on a given day.
The house
Lorenzo Pazzaglia, also styled PAX by Lorenzo Pazzaglia, is an Italian artistic perfumery from the Marche region. Every perfume is an Extrait de Parfum, and the scents are vivid and playful: summer cocktails, sea air, rum and vanilla, cherry and chocolate.

The store’s selection is really good and comprehensive. Placing an order was very easy, and shipping was really fast. The fragrances were well packed and they were all excellent. I’m very satisfied. 👍💯👍
Very good quality profume, it last long and it has a good price for its incredible aroma and mixes of fruit and wood smell
A cozy, slightly sensual vanilla that feels like warm night air by the sea. Easy to love if you enjoy gourmand perfumes with a soft smoky edge.
This perfume is really well blended, I just removed a star because I personnaly don't like the top note (citronella)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Good cologne, love the citrus and ginger scent making it a playful combo while the tea base makes it a bit more mature. Great for the gym
FragranceGems is again really quick with their releases. I hope this one smells better than Too Damn Good. Already rating a 5 star because of previous experiences!!
Already pre-order. As always, FragranceGems is the first with good releases. Looking forward to my bottle!
The cap of the bottle came with a small part of it broken off and the glass pieces were in the box
