JAFRA Tender Moments Fresh Baby Cologne

It smells like what you think it should
I’m really into fragrances. Im also having my first child in a few weeks. After going totally clean and being green washed several years back, I developed sensitivity issues and eventually cancer. Since being in remission for a few years, I honestly don’t care about the fear mongering surrounding fragrance in products. I also no longer experience the irritation and sensitivity I experienced when using all natural, non toxic and clean products because I now refrain from using those type of products. I personally do not care for the scent of essential oils and raw butters. Rose oil does not smell like fresh rose petals and shea butter and lavender stink. I just had to put that out there first. So don’t judge me for subjecting my soon to be child to smelling pretty.Okay, I just received this Jafra Tender Moments fresh baby cologne in the mail. It smells like everything I imagined. My first thoughts is that it is both soapy and powdery. It smells like baby shampoo mixed with baby powder. Its definitely not the baby lotion scent. I can totally see myself using this on my baby. I know just pat it on my child’s clothes. I can’t see the difference between putting this in a baby’s hair as too different from putting it on a baby’s skin because of the proximity of the hair to skin. If my child does not exhibit any irritation from using this product, I wont hesitate to use it on her skin.It doesn’t last long and the scent is soft. I can mainly smell it if I put my nose to my skin. So low projection and a skin scent. I mainly want to use it to freshen up my baby after diaper changes. I’ve yet to smell a baby that has the newborn baby smell people say they love. I’m convinced it just the ephemeral scent of baby products we use on the little wee one. My favorite category of fragrances to wear are the ones that smell like the result of good hygiene rather than smelling like perfume. So i prefer the scent of expensive body lotions and toiletry items to linger.This isn’t really a travel friendly products. It has no spray apparatus to it. I’d probably repackage it in a tiny mister bottle to fit in my diaper bag. Also, at the bottom of the bottle it has a 6month shelf life after opening it symbol. So I should not try to hoard this product and just use it freely.I can’t say if I’d repurchase just yet. It is a bit expensive for what it is. If it had longevity, then the cost would be justified. However, Im only recently finding out that baby powder is no longer recommended because of the particle size getting into babies lungs. So I don’t know if baby powder is even easily accessible these days. So this might just capture the scent that might be gone, but very much smells like traditional clean baby. I’ll update in 6 month if not consumed by mommy brain.Update: It’s been about 6 months since I did the original review. My baby is now 5 months old. The fragrance is not so light as I originally thought, but it still smells great. Although the packaging is really pretty, it is impractical. I don’t find myself using it as frequently as I thought I would because of the packaging. I’m not sure why splash bottles are the main packaging for many baby fragrances. Also, The fragrance doesn’t look or smell like it’s gone bad even though it now been 6 months.I’ve tried a few other brands and they don’t compare to Jafra in terms of smelling like traditional baby. Ones by Para Mi Bebe and Ricitos de Oro don’t even conjure ideas of baby, but work because they are fresh. I wish I could find one with a little different spin on the traditional baby smell like the scent of Noodles and Boo or Dreft scented beads. Those smell like baby even though they don’t smell like baby powder nor Johnson’s baby lotion. Unfortunately, they don’t make cologne. I do use the linen sprays though, but it’s not the same.If you wanted to try baby cologne for the first time, this would be your best bet. Many fragrances out there don’t smell like what you would imagine. I’d repurchase for sure.

Nostalgic
I bought this as I am expecting my first baby. My mom has used it on me and my too siblings when we were babies. It is such a beautiful scent. It is not irritating on the skin. It also lasts ALL DAY. I opened the box and tested it out just a drop on my wrist to smell it and the smell stuck with me all day. I love it! Can’t wait to use it on my little boy.

Smells good!
I bought this because I saw that it is some what of a dupe for Burberry Baby Touch. It smells a lot like it but not exactly. But it still smells really good, I’m happy with it.

A good option for your baby smells delicious.
I am fascinated by the smell, it is very soft and fresh, it is added to clothes and a long-lasting fragrance for your baby
