@CoastalGal I did not like the last apple product either. I love this one, as I have had a chance to smell it when I was at the salon one time. It is much lighter and crisper in scent. The other one was overpowering for me.

Hi @World Traveler, thank you for posting this. It sounds lovely. I'm gonna get some of these, definitely. Will there be some NBTs or other things in this scent?

Really interested in knowing what everyone thinks of this new scent. Think it is going to be a winner!

it smells like a fresh cut McInstosh apple absolutely zero spice, zero maple, ...doesn't smell anything like FAS.

Thank you! I was on the fence and saw there was vanilla in the scent description so was hoping for something other than just fruit scent. If it's just Apple smelling, think I am passing. I need warmth or something for fall not just fruit. Will stick with the pumpkins

Does FFA smell like Kids Apple CC?

@BigAppleBella It doesn't to me, but I have only smelled it once at the salon. And it has been a while since I tried the Kid's Apple. If I were to choose between the two, I would go with the Fall Fresh Apple instead of the Kid's Apple.

By the way, with a nickname like yours, you should get the Fall Fresh Apple and also the Bella Spirit products!

@worldtraveler
Thanks! Very helpful since the scent of the Kids Apple is too strong for my nose. I like vanilla notes, so I may like FFA.
Actually, I was born and grew up in NYC and always think that the Big Apple is a beautiful (Bella in Italian) city. I’m sure i will like FFA and Bella Spirit Indigo CC. Thanks again!

Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts on the new Fall Fresh Apple! 🍏 🍎

It will be awhile til I get to try it, my TSV is stuck - no movement since it was “in transit to UPS” and my FFA styling trio is still in process with my Bella Spirit duo.

I used it as a first cleanse last night, and while I like it cold, when it's warm on my head, there is a musky undertone I don't like very much. I'm glad I only have 16 ounces to use up as a first cleanse, and not sad I'm allergic to it. I hope those of you who aren't allergic love the scent, I imagine it will work as nicely as the rest of Chaz's honied seasonals. The cold scent is indeed fresh, crisp, juicy apple, that part I just love!

@CamilleP I'm confused. What was the allergic reaction you experienced with the fall fresh apple?

Re: Fall Fresh Apple

CamilleP — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 21:23:02 GMT

It's not the FFA in particular, it's the honey compound in all the new seasonals Chaz has been producing since he introduced Summer Honey Peach. I developed an allergy to it, I don't know why, but now all the CC's that contain it make my scalp itch terribly. I can't use MIF or PJP, either. That's why I was so happy to see that Indigo does not have honey in it, it means I can use it as a second cleanse as intended, and it won't irritate my scalp.

@CamilleP

Sorry to hear of your problem with the honey ! 😿

My hair LOVES it and it is SO shinny.

Re: Fall Fresh Apple

CamilleP — Wed, 05 Sep 2018 21:41:10 GMT

Thank you, Drythe. My hair loves the honey, too, most especially the SHP CC and styling products, nothing matches the shininess from that formula for me. However, when my scalp is itchy and bumpy and red, that eclipses the shininess factor, so I avoid the formulas that I know cause me grief.

ETA: I just went and looked at some formulas, the particular compound I'm sensitive to seems to be Hydroxypropyltrimonium Honey.

@Souperkrys I used it this morning and like it very much. To me it doesn't smell like a regular apple, as WenKids does, it smells more like a spicey baked apple, and the scent is light. I used it as a second cleanse with TT as my first, and my hair looks full and glossy. Hope when you finally receive it, you will like it, too.

Re: Fall Fresh Apple

World Traveler — Thu, 06 Sep 2018 14:01:07 GMT

@qtrmoonlady1 Thanks for the review! Am so eager to receive my TSV so I can try it. I was not particularly fond of the WEN Kids Apple, but loved the other two scents for the kids. I definitely did not like the Fall Apple Spice.

I think the Fall Fresh Apple will be the perfect "in between" the two apple scents for me.

Good to hear! Whenever I used FAS, ppl would ask why they they smelled apple pie and I would have to explain it's just my shampoo. Plus my hair didn't particularly care for it vs. other seasonals I've used.

Washed my hair with Fall Fresh Apple second cleanse after TT today.

I like this new CC. The smell is light and not overpowering.

It's scent is nothing like Kiddy Wen Apple. It smells more subtle, or like maybe freshly baked apple, with something else, it could be a little vanilla.

The consistency of FFA is creamy and it cleansed very well, while rinsing out nicely.

My hair feels very clean, soft, voluminous and manageable all day today.

Over-all result - excellent hair!

Thank you @sonechko @CamilleP @bruingirl

I appreciate your comments and look forward to reading others too, as I patiently await my tsv...which is still in process.😞
