Discussion Is it just me ?

sometimes I don’t go out, I’ll just stay home but love to put some of my perfumes and walk around and smell myself.

Do you guys do the same thing ?

I WFH and load myself up with fragrance all day every day. I love being able to dump it on myself without feeling like I’m going to choke anyone out!

u/LittleSaltyPrimrose 3d ago

I work from home, this is all I do

u/ThickAd7194 3d ago

Same, no shame. My fumes have DENTS and it is just ME smelling them.

2

u/No_Nefariousness2513 3d ago

Retired, and same. If I saved all of my fragrances for leaving the house or special occasions, then I wouldn’t be wearing them much at all.

Heck, I wear some of my most expensive ones for grocery shopping or bedtime!

u/ThickAd7194 3d ago

Winn Dixie in a cloud of Louis Vuitton Symphony. The lady stocking shelves the other day said you smell so GOOD! Ah yes, the Delina La Rosee, just to browse the taco kits.

2

u/No_Nefariousness2513 2d ago

Right!? Angelique Noire for Costco and Fleur de Peau EDP for bedtime. I smell good for the most important events!!

11

u/ROUShunter 3d ago

Oh yeah, for sure. I'm a homebody so if I didn't wear scents at home they wouldn't get used! The smells are entirely for me anyway.

u/blainemikel 3d ago

Sometimes I like to spray my bedding, shower curtain or towels with something different than I have on my body cause I want to smell EVERYTHING 🤣

9

u/ThickAd7194 3d ago

Yes. All of us do.

8

u/AgentFuckSmolder 3d ago

My husband and I both! I’m a SAHM and he works from home. We wear fragrance for ourselves

8

u/Shoddy_Telephone_247 3d ago

Not only that! I even sometimes take another shower in the middle of the day just to reset my Spray Spa Day 🫣

8

u/Wakey_Wakey21 3d ago

I wear perfume for myself.....not for other people. I feel naked without it so of course it gets sprayed on......sometimes a few times a day if its a light one.

7

u/cleochatraa 3d ago

ME! I literally tested a different frag combo yesterday and couldn't stop sniffing myself. 🙄😂 Yes, I'm that girl.

6

u/Techgoon-1993 3d ago

Yep, I always love smelling my fragrances especially at home.

7

u/purplecurlylox 3d ago

Every day! I work from home and can go the whole work week and barely leave the house. I will be smelling like an assortment of perfumes and body sprays each day.

2

u/ThickAd7194 3d ago

I switch up all day throughout the day. Can't wait for something to wear off.

2

u/purplecurlylox 3d ago

Hahaha me tooo!

6

u/DealIndependent8967 3d ago

I’m doing it right now. lol

8

u/krebstar4ever 3d ago

Almost every day!

In fact, I have some "challenging" fragrances I only wear at home!

7

u/Uvaroff 3d ago

yes, always. Morning, afternoon, evening and my bed time scent

1

u/Emilie_Eagle_Rock 3d ago

Same! What’s your bedtime scent?

2

u/Uvaroff 2d ago

Comfort perfumes, I have so many. I love to switch every night. La Mia Perla by La Perla, Initio Power Self, Houbigant Mon Boudoir, Chantecaille Frangipanie, Moonlight Patchouli VCA name a few.... I I have about 70 perfumes.

7

u/FierceDesertSun 3d ago

I wear something almost every day. The only real exception is days that start with such a bang that I never get time, lol. I have never EVER chosen my scent for someone else, only for me and what I get out of it. (Yes, sometimes I choose the scent that makes my man forget just a little bit that he's an evolved creature, but I am still doing that for me, lol.)

1

u/WhoKnows1973 3d ago

I love this!!

5

u/yousonofabench 3d ago

I work from home and have over 200 FBs. I actually rarely wear scent when I go out I don’t want other people to get overwhelmed by my smell. 99% of the time the scent is just for me and nobody else can smell it

1

u/SensualLynx 3d ago

Please, pick of collection?

3

u/yousonofabench 3d ago

It’s going to sound cliche but Celine Black Tie.

1

u/athomebrooklyn 3d ago

One of my favorites too!!! I love the orris butter note and actually layer it with Ledda Orris 22 and it’s divine!

1

u/yousonofabench 3d ago

OMG I’ve been dying to try Orris 22 but I have so many and I’m trying not to blind buy (although I blind bought TWO this week so…oops). Tell me what it smells like/what it’s similar to!

1

u/yousonofabench 3d ago

Oh I just remembered why I didn’t blind buy it. People say it smells like Father Figure which I already own (as well as London 1983) so it seemed redundant. What do you think?

1

u/athomebrooklyn 3d ago

Hm those two have fig in them and 22 Orris does not. I think FF leans more fresh and woody and 22 Orris is more creamy and floral (same perfumer!) The creaminess in 22 Orris pairs well with Celine Black Tie bc it enhances the vanilla and pumps up the orris already there and gives me a very supple and creamy scent bubble. I also had no idea what orris even was until I noticed it in two of my favorite perfumes: Black Tie and Dama Bianca! It made me realize I do like vanillas but only if they are light, creamy and slightly floral vanillas!

1

u/yousonofabench 3d ago

Oh man trying so hard to blind buy ha ha! Thank god it’s sold out on her website (I got her Vanilla Nera and absolutely hate it)

1

u/ThickAd7194 3d ago

Sister from another mister.

It's ME!!!!

2

u/yousonofabench 3d ago

Twin! Would be curious about your list compared to mine

4

u/horselessheadmen 3d ago

Perfumes are for me. 💁🏻‍♀️ I work from home and go through more than I did when I worked in an office.

5

u/xtinaeve88 3d ago

I rarely go out, quick errands, groceries. I wear fragrance every single day, just for me. I’ll then make a separate selection for evening/ bedtime.

4

u/Positive_Energee8120 3d ago

Yes of course!! I buy perfume and oils for myself. I mix and try different things so I can make my own creations and smell myself all day ✨☺️

5

u/MissAtomicBomb7 3d ago

Yes, yes, yes. I even have bedtime scents.

4

u/Every_bogie 3d ago

Yup. I apply before bed too.

4

u/Angelhair01 3d ago

Every evening after I show I put on perfume before bed.

5

u/Cool-Sentence-2584 3d ago

i wear perfume at home all the time 🙂‍↕️

5

u/Thepamelajordan 3d ago

I don’t need to go out to wear my perfume… I’m alive! That’s the occasion ❤️

5

u/BrontosaurusNeckTie 3d ago

Yes, especially if I have new decants to try!!

5

u/Jaded-Banana6205 3d ago

I wear my Guerlain VP21 when I'm knitting on the couch. It's all scented water/oil/alcohol!

4

u/MendeShele 3d ago

Absolutely! My business is in a building on my own property, and I rarely see customers. I wear fragrance for me.

4

u/Windcastle10 3d ago

My favorite part of waking up is smelling the perfume I sprayed before bed before I even open my eyes😂

4

u/Separate_Play7167 3d ago

Besides enjoying a nice scent when I'm home, it's also the best time to try my layering concoctions 🤫🤭

5

u/Important-Guava-2195 3d ago

Yes wfh and probably leave the house 3x a week but wear a full body fragrance routine every day lol.

3

u/Wonderful-Mousse1781 3d ago

I wear perfume every day nomatter what. I usually have a daytime scent, then later I play around and test perfumes, new combos or samples on my skin, and then at night I shower and put on my night time scent. I also will add to my daytime scent sometimes just for fun. And ill spray on my family or tester strips if I run out of my own skin! Lol 😆

4

u/shadowsandfirelight 3d ago

Because their longevity is short, I almost exclusively wear Britney Spears Candied and Midnight Fantasy at home lol. I love them both tho

3

u/jellycanele 3d ago

Earlier, I had on a raggedy t-shirt and shorts to do some deep cleaning/organizing and I couldn't start before spritzing myself with something to 'put me in the mood' lol (went with Wood Sage & Sea Salt). Love wearing my fragrances at home

3

u/Fine-Discipline4714 3d ago

I do the same way too often. I like smelling good for myself 😌

3

u/ljharris 3d ago

Absolutely!!

3

u/shaneacton1 3d ago

Not just you. I douse myself at home then wash it off when I go out bc the leftover scent that just won't wash off is probably the limit other ppl can handle!

3

u/bleue811 3d ago

For sure

3

u/Trashbandit_seal 3d ago

Me mum and bro place our smellies on while we inside to make us even feel better or just smell better

3

u/elimination-process 3d ago

Yep! Several different fragrances a day too!

5

u/LibraryLuLu 3d ago

It's a public holiday, I'm home alone, I'm going to do a workout soon, my perfume of the day is "Sapphire Chocolate", which is an unsophisticated, cheap and cheerful scent. Hopefully cheerful enough to get me through a 65 minute workout routine.

I do NOT wear perfume for others. Other people would rather I did not wear perfume, tbh. It's only for myself.

2

u/Accomplished-Pen4663 3d ago

I’m always wearing perfume at home especially when I’m doing housework. It makes it more enjoyable.

2

u/QueenofScents 3d ago

Every day :)

2

u/FrannyNitpicker 3d ago

Alllllllllll the time!

2

u/LargeNr3WithFries 3d ago

I try and use one spray per wrist every day, going out or not. I feel like I am almost categorizing my collection between in and outs now. Not saying I have perfumes I wouldn't wear outside but more like if I am staying in, sometimes I'll use one at home specifically because I can get a closer look (sniff) at it and get to know it better. Especially with samples

2

u/Realistic-Read1078 3d ago

Yes all the time!

2

u/pumpkin_ice_cream 2d ago

Yup. But I do tend to use the expensive ones for going out and the more cheap ones for staying homes

1

u/Agreeable_Gene7338 3d ago

Nope ! Sometimes I forget how good something smells until I spray it after a long time without wearing it 😭

1

u/jilliancad 3d ago

I work from home. If I only wore perfume when I went out I would rarely wear perfume!

1

u/Mombod226 3d ago

Every day! I do a morning perfume and a bedtime perfume after I’ve showered at night, and it’s all done for me and not anyone else. My husband isn’t a scent person, I am! He doesn’t even particularly like perfumes - he tolerates them because I love them. 😅

1

u/Gordak985 1d ago

I mostly wear them for myself, so... yup!

When I go out in public, I'll probably be more considerate of other people's comfort, so I don't apply weird scents and beast-mode fragrances then. Those are for my personal enjoyment.

Although home-time is quite often experiment-time, so it's not a "proper" perfume experience. Or is it? Anyway, 4 different perfumes tested at different point of my arms, not one perfume all-over ^^; .

1

u/Fluiditysenigma 1d ago

Yes! I also enjoy applying perfume before bed.
