MAC calls Velvet Teddy an oriental fragrance with wild honey and creamy musk notes. I think I was somehow expecting these to actually smell like lipstick! Maybe a Replica Lipstick On or Frederic Malle Lipstick Rose experience! But none of them do! They are actually compiled of some very interesting notes and Velvet Teddy might just be the most unique of all however, you probably smelled it somewhere before. Or just buy the fragrance and not a lipstick. It also means you can mix and match any of the shades you want in any combination you want or not buy any of the lipsticks at all and just indulge in the fragrances. These are sold separately which means if you hate the Velvet Teddy Lipstick shade but love the fragrance you won’t have to have the lipstick shade forced on you and vice versa for the fragrance. I actually thought MAC was selling both the lipstick and the fragrances as a set but that’s not the case at all. This comes housed in 1.7 oz frosted glass square bottle with a cap that matches the Velvet Teddy Lipstick that inspired the fragrance. I hope this is correct as I didn’t pick up a backup of this scent and I really, really will need one if it is limited edition. I asked MAC and according to them Velvet Teddy will be a permanent fragrance. I’m still debating on a few of the others but compared to Velvet Teddy none were as eventful.
I’m actually glad I waited because the only scent that really stood out and grabbed me was MAC Velvet Teddy. MAC Velvet Teddy Shadescent will come as absolutely no surprise to Tom Ford lovers. I was going to pick all six MAC Shadescents up on a blind buy when they launched but sometime told me to wait and smell them in store.
MAC Velvet Teddy Shadescents Perfume ($57) is one of six new fragrances that MAC introduced earlier this season which are inspired by cult-favorite lipstick shades in the MAC permanent collection.
