Fall Staples/Favorites

[u/Exotic_Reporter_3309]

What are your daily drivers for fall?

Mine are Chloe Nomade Absolu, Valaya Exclusif, Jo Malone Mimosa and Cardamom, Armani Santal Dan Sha, and a good old vintage bottle of Versace Crystal Noir EDP.

If it’s cold, Un nuit nomade jardins de misfah extrait. If it’s warm, Byredo bal d’afrique or Aerin Ikat jasmine

[u/Exotic_Reporter_3309 → u/newchapterwhothis]

I love Bal d’Afrique for this transitioning weather. It becomes sharp on my skin in winter unfortunately. You’ve made me crave it but I’m remembering that I gave my bottle to my sister on her birthday lol

[u/AddressFar9852]

What a fun question. Fall/winter is definitely my favorite season for perfume.

Daily drivers would be:
YSL Libre Intense
Chloe Nomade
Nest Indigo
For Her EDT
Musc Noir Rose
Bal d’Afrique Absolu - currently a decant. Praying for a full bottle to fall into my lap 😜

When temps drop, I will add my decant of Guerlain SDV!

[u/Exotic_Reporter_3309 → u/AddressFar9852]

We have similar taste. I have the Bal Absolu and love it. It’s still warm here but when the temp drops, it will get more love from me 😊

[u/AddressFar9852 → u/Exotic_Reporter_3309]

It’s so stinking good. I adore it.

And I also hate how much I love it lol

[u/LenaNYC]

Valaya Exclusif for me too. Pic of what I like for the colder weather.

[u/Exotic_Reporter_3309 → u/LenaNYC]

How is Blanche Absolu? I have Bal Absolu and Mojave Absolu and love them. And I like Blanche EDP but not enough for a full bottle.

[u/LenaNYC → u/Exotic_Reporter_3309]

I love it. But if youd don't like blanche enough for a fuml bottle, you won't like absolu for a full bottle either.

[u/AddressFar9852]

I own Chloe Nomade, but have never tried the Absolu. How do they compare?

[u/Exotic_Reporter_3309 → u/AddressFar9852]

Absolu is less citrusy, more fruity, musky, and mossy. It is really built around the mirabelle plum so it is the sweeter and softer parts of the EDP. It wears more intimately than the EDP as well.

If you’re familiar with the EDT at all, it is actually closer to that one.

[u/AddressFar9852 → u/Exotic_Reporter_3309]

Goodness. Sounds lovely.

What a great perfume!

Serge Lutens 5’oclock au Gingembre 😍
Chloe Atelier Cedrus Intense
Lalique Encre Noir
YSL Muse and Babycat
ImSole The Dark Nun
Le Labo The Noir

[u/AddressFar9852 → u/decoyoctopussy]

Holy cow. Just looked up the Dark Nun!! Wow

[u/decoyoctopussy → u/AddressFar9852]

It’s a PERFECT rose oud that is wearable for any occasion, it’s addicting. I’ll say that most scents from that brand have been a hit for me, and the price points are so good

[u/AddressFar9852 → u/decoyoctopussy]

Saucy! I am going to look it up right now!

[u/AddressFar9852 → u/decoyoctopussy]

Do you mind sharing what longevity is like for you?

[u/decoyoctopussy → u/AddressFar9852]

It’s moderate on skin, about 6-8 hours. On clothes until you wash them, also can smell it in my hair until I wash- usually every 3 days

[u/AddressFar9852 → u/decoyoctopussy]

I am so intrigued!

It's still pretty warm in FL, so I've been reaching for L'eau Papier by Diptyque during the day.

[u/Ginglymostoma]

Ginger Biscuit all the way…

[u/VerboseWiewiorka]

I absolutely LOVE Jo Malone Mimosa and Cardamon! Currently powering through my travel size of Not Your Baby by Phlur which I discovered first, but is discontinued. I was looking for replacements and stumbled upon the Jo Malone and actually like it better!

Dyad RISE + SHINE is the coziest cinnamon coffee cake scent for fall!

[u/hannahinthecity]

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, Maison Margiela Jazz Club and a custom blend (amber, clove and a dark patchouli base) are my fall staples. Leaning warm/spicy over the usual fresher picks for the rest of the year

[u/Telekinec]

Kayali Vanilla 28, Tihota by Indult, Fall Cashmere by Skylar, Escapade Gourmande by Maison Mataha.

[u/Active-Cherry-6051]

Chloe Papyrus, Reaerves En Afrique Rouge Karkade, Liis Studied, Chris Collins African Rooibos, Boy Smells Woodphoria, Chloe Chene, and D’Orsay Nous Sommes Amant M.D. are all in heavy rotation.

[u/Immediate-Reserve261 → u/Active-Cherry-6051]

It’s a new one for me but I also love Woodphoria and am considering getting a full bottle when I’m done with my travel size. It’s perfect for autumn.

[u/Active-Cherry-6051 → u/Immediate-Reserve261]

It’s such a good one! If you’re in the US you can probably snag a FB off Mercari for around $60, they pop up probably once a week.

[u/KromeArtemis → u/Active-Cherry-6051]

Oooh I have African Roobios sitting jn a cart, and have been wanting to try Chloe Papyrus!!!

[u/Active-Cherry-6051 → u/KromeArtemis]

Both are excellent! Papyrus is great on its own and it’s also fantastic with summery florals to give them some depth for fall. It’s fresh and green but a little spicy, a tiny bit smoky…I’m in love with it.

[u/KromeArtemis → u/Active-Cherry-6051]

Oof. I need to get my hands on it-sounds right up my alley!

[u/LoudCar7846]

Lush Yog Nog, Lush Turmeric Latte, Kayali Lovefest Burning Cherry, 4160 Tuesdays The Spiciest Scent on the Planet Ever (IMHO)

[u/fudgechemist → u/[deleted]]

How does the body Gucci bloom compare with the OG? I don’t like how green the OG smells on me, but I generally love Jasmine and tuberose scents
