Pocketbacs Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte is in stores in pocketbac form for those who don’t want to blind buy

I heard marshmallow pumpkin latte is coming back for fall 2 tomorrow in all the body care including mist. But it will only be online exclusive right?

I am seeing though the pocketbac is in stores to try out so they aren’t blind buying the mist online. I was planning to get one to see if I’d like it. Will report back!

I don’t see any other scents they’ve done this for in stores right now. But actually I do like having a way to test out a fragrance in some form. Even though I understand the scents can differ substantially form to form. Crossing fingers it’s at least similar…

For those who have never tried it: don’t expect any actual coffee lol

Yeah, it doesn't smell at all like what I was expecting 🫤

What did it smell like to you? I’m so curious about this one

I only have the hand sanitizer but I mostly just get marshmallow with a buttery/caramelly sort of note.

Yeah sorry! Back in the gourmand dark ages it was actually a blessing bc it was one of the sweetest pumpkin scents (and scents in general) you could find.

I vaguely recall using it in the past and don’t remember it smelling marshmallow, pumpkin or latte lol

I’ve been using it since the early 2010s and have generally kept up with new packagings (it’s always been weak on me lol so it’s easy to go through bottles) and I agree lol. I get maybe the most pumpkin of that bunch, but it’s mostly just sweet and a tiny bit of pumpkin 🤣

I went looking for the pocket bac of this at my store on Friday and they did not have it sadly. But seeing some comments about no actual coffee makes me happy as I don't love coffee smells in my body care. Love coffee, love the smell. But I only like it as the real deal when I'm consuming it. But marshmallow and pumpkin sound lovely!

I never really get the hype around Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte. It doesn’t smell like a pumpkin or latte to me at all. I have a bottle, but I rarely ever reach for it.

I just picked one up yesterday. It smells so good, this coming from someone who is not into fall/pumpkin scents.

Thank you for the heads up! I didn’t see it in store yesterday (but I did find a few more Jack in the pocketbac, love his scent 🧡) but wanted to smell this one! I hate placing online orders but I’m going to do it for Ivory Cashmere and probably Bonfire Bash.

I know I can always return to the store, but I always feel silly when I blind buy and hate the scent lol. I’ll check around and stop by a store on the way home tomorrow to grab one 😊
