HuffPost's Voices director recounts her attachment to a discontinued cake-scented perfume and surveys 18 replacement fragrances marketed as 'gourmand,' featuring notes like chocolate, marshmallow and croissant. A perfume content creator is quoted explaining the category's appeal, tying it to a broader desire for comfort and compliments.
