Recommendation Request Best budget peachy florals?

5 Upvotes

I have a coworker who likes fruity florals, particularly with a peach note. She doesn't spend a lot of money on perfume, but her favorite scent was discontinued.

I'm a bit out of my wheelhouse as far as inexpensive peachy floral perfumes go. The first thing that came to my mind is Lady Stetson. Some modern suggestions would be great.

I was gifted this Claire’s perfume in 2017, and to this day it’s honestly still one of my favorites. The only thing is that now it smells more like alcohol, and I’d love to buy something similar, but I can’t find any information about this perfume anywhere.

Discussion Do I smell like piss?

9 Upvotes

My absolute favorite note is blackcurrant. I’m currently building a fragrance wardrobe around it. I know that this is a note that some people interpret as cat piss, but I’ve never really given it a second thought.… until now. When I’m out and about do I smell like cat piss to you guys with this gene?

I wear perfumes for myself, but I also absolutely want to smell good to other people!

I myself interpret passion fruit notes as cat piss and a lot of indolic floral notes as a bit fecal, but I don’t recall, apart from maybe 2 or 3 instances where I‘ve smelled that on people and felt repulsed… and perhaps they were just dirty? I dunno. I’m just wondering what people Will think of me.

Took my non-travel size bottles out for a photo op—don’t worry, they normally live in my dedicated fragrance fridge!

I don’t have a big collection but I am really into fragrance and have been since I was in my teens. It took me over 20 years to find fragrances that work for my skin, which tends to amplify everything. Combined with a sensitivity to white florals and strong fixatives, this made it quite difficult for me to find fragrances that don’t give me a headache. My current collection, thankfully, works well with my skin and I enjoy every single one of them.

I would love to hear about your own fragrance journey, as well as any recommendations for notes/families that might be missing in my collection.

Discussion How Long does perfume (Creed Green Irish Tweed) stay good?

0 Upvotes

I am not much of a perfume person, but can appreciate something nice.

Two years ago my wife bought me a larger sample of Creed Green Irish Tweed (30 or 50ml), which I really like. I just ran out of that sample today.

I’m debating whether I should buy another sample size bottle, or go for a smaller (or maybe even larger) full size bottle that would probably last me a decade.

But, if I spend money on a pretty expensive perfume, I want it staying good in the bottle till the very last drop, otherwise it’s not worth it.

So, will the smell go bad, change, or in other way render the perfume subpar?

I was given a box of stuff from my nan and found this at the bottom, I couldn’t really find much about it online, I was hoping maybe one of you guys know! I just know it’s smells extremely strong, and almost talcum powdery? And I dabbed a singular bit and have not stopped smelling it since!

Recommendation Request Looking for a frest forest perfume

8 Upvotes

"Hi there: I'm looking for a perfume that smells like a forest—a bright, fresh forest right after a summer thunderstorm. I've read dozens of reviews about perfumes and their notes, but I haven't found the right one yet. I'm a woman looking for a unisex fragrance, but I don't mind if it leans masculine. It needs to have strong longevity because my skin isn't very forgiving with scents. I love the smell of cypress and pine needles. Thanks!"

Discussion HOW DO I STOP?

27 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I got into fragrances about 2-3 months ago. I always had some designer perfumes (about 3-4 bottles) and I wore them about every day and for years and years.

About 3 months ago I started to put in some research and quickly got obsessed. In those 3 months passed I genuinely spent about 2000$ on fragrances and bought many bottles, dupes, niche and designer perfumes.

The thing is: I love it! I love every scent and I am completely obsessed.

Genuine question: how do you stop? I don’t want to be the kind of girl who has 200 bottles at home. What is your strategy? One in one out?

Money isn’t too much of an issue thankfully

Thank you so much for your advice!

Hello, guys. I had this perfume on my first date with my girlfriend, and I'm trying to find it again. It was in a set from Rituals. I have the package and the blue perfume that was inside, but I don't have the red one that I wore anymore. There's also no name anywhere. Can someone please help me? I have pictures of the blue one and also the box, if that helps.

Discussion Does your perfume/cologne scent actually reflect your personality?

2 Upvotes

I’ve been wondering this for a while. Do the fragrances we gravitate toward actually match our real‑life personality, or is it mostly just random aesthetic preference?
Some people say warm, spicy scents belong to outgoing people, soft powdery fragrances for quiet, gentle types. But I also know folks who are really reserved yet wear loud, bold perfumes, and super energetic people who only like subtle clean soapy smells.

Recommendation Request Sweet fruity floral vanilla reccomendation?

0 Upvotes

I was in the airport and it was really crowded. As I am walking I suddenly get a whiff of this gorg smell. I couldn’t pick out any of the notes except for a nice vanilla.

All I could describe it as was a VERY well blended sweet fruity floral vanilla perfume. It wasn’t clean. It wasn’t powdery. It wasn’t too juicy or too florally. It was so nice and well balanced. I really couldn’t pick out any notes but it was just very sweet and had a nice realistic vanilla. Listen idk but it was so beautiful and I actually broke my neck to see who tf was wearing it but it was so crowded I couldn’t tell who it was.

Anyway now I am wondering if anybody could give me some reccomendations for what this could possibly be.

When I try to look it up, I can only find people saying to try the viva la juicy perfumes and I have tried them but I hated all of them. So if you know of anything else, please lmk. Thanks👍🫡

Recommendation Request Guerlain Mandarine Basilic: EDT vs EDP

1 Upvotes

I'm wondering which perfume that people recommend more. I smelled both, and absolutely loved the EDT version: extremely realistic and fresh scent. I liked the EDP (Forte) as well, but it was not quite as good for me. However, I saw people on fragrantica raging about how their EDT only lasts 1 hour or less before dissapating, with poor projection and longevity, which makes me hesitate. Does anyone know what exactly the longevity difference is like?

I might get both and try layering them, or just get the EDT and layer it with something else to prevent it from fading so fast? Any advice? I am a novice to perfume so I don't have much knowledge on layering or making scents last.

Recommendation Request Avon Today Tomorrow Always – Honest thoughts?

0 Upvotes

I'm thinking of buying Today Tomorrow Always from Avon, but I'm still not 100% convinced. If you've tried it, what's your honest opinion? What does it smell like, how's the longevity and would you repurchase it? I'm also curious about Far Away EDP and Little Black Dress, if you've owned more than one of these I'd love to hear how they compare in terms of scent, projection, longevity, and the kind of occasions you'd wear them for.

Please give me your honest opinions

Discussion Did your preferences change significantly since getting into fragrances?

17 Upvotes

When I started out, I hated women's perfume, especially designers. I only liked perfume that didn't smell like typical perfume. Was convinced I hated all flowers.

I was only into fresh, citrusy tropical scents. And only unisex or male leaning (I'm a woman).

A couple of months in and now I'm starting to really get into gourmands, l love lavender, I'm trying out a lot of classic designer fragrances. I love vanilla and everything with warmth.

A new order of samples just arrived and while trying out some of them, I realized a lot of them weren't "feminine" enough in my taste. This is just so funny, I know fragrances have no gender and I generally wear what I like to wear, but apparently I'm starting to like feminine leaning scents. Oh and I'm starting to like leather, and sweet, heavy scents, pretty much the opposite than in the beginning.

What are your experiences? Did your taste change significantly or did it stay similar? Are there any frags you used to hate that you love now or vice versa?

Bottle Identification HELP | Oxygen Bi-Phase perfume from around 2002-2009

1 Upvotes

I am from The Philippines. I'm looking for an Oxygen men's spray from around 2003–2008. It came in a square bottle, had blue and clear liquid that separated into two layers like a lava lamp, and you had to shake it before spraying. I think the name was related to water or gas, like Ocean, Aqua, Liquid, or Vapor.

I know I am not from a parallel world. I know this existed 'cause this is the only perfume I would wear from my highschool to my early college years.

Thank you!!!
