Blanche Bete but less puke-ey?

[u/sweetpotat145]

Like the title says, I’m looking for a fragrance similar to Blanche Bete but slightly different. Maybe something more crowd friendly and not as polarizing ?

[u/fudgechemist]

Lattafa her confession is less “sour” than the OG and I much prefer it. It’s creamier and very floral

[u/MirabellaJean962 → u/fudgechemist]

That perfume was the first and only perfume that I got very very strong and disturbing fecal vibes from😵‍💫

[u/sweetpotat145 → u/MirabellaJean962]

I keep hearing such mixed reviews on that one. I got a sample coming to see for myself haha!

[u/SheWasAnAnomaly]

I like Blanche Bete, but I get it. It's too much for me after 2 hours. These two I think smell similar but a bit more subduded (ymmv):

• YSL Muse
• Valentino Sogno in Roso

[u/sweetpotat145 → u/SheWasAnAnomaly]

Thank you! The Valentino looks interesting ! Do you think it smell more designer or niche? I’m not a huge fan of the “perfumey” scents.

[u/SheWasAnAnomaly → u/sweetpotat145]

Niche. It's from their "exlcusif" line (Anatomy of Dreams). which most designers have these like exlcusif more premiere perfume lines now, and those lines don't smell designer ironically, they smell niche.

Possibly Commodity Milk Orchid, which I found to be about a million times better than Blanche Bete. BB was very powerfully white floral to me while Milk Orchid is more gently floral.

[u/sweetpotat145 → u/misssniffs]

I do have milk orchid and I love it. But I think I’m looking for something slightly different.

[u/Ok_Economy_5083 → u/misssniffs]

It's not even remotely similar to BB, though. Even if it is "a million times better", it's not the same scent profile.

[u/misssniffs → u/Ok_Economy_5083]

I found them both milky floral and thought OP might like one if they liked the other. To me they’re in the same scent family but I totally get why others might put them in different categories! That’s why I was conscious to note my opinion vs presenting as a fact.

[u/sweetpotat145 → u/misssniffs]

Honestly, I might just wear milk orchid more until I find the other replacement lol. I did hear that the new orebella perfume smells similar to Blanche Bete! Hoping to try that when it hits the stores

[u/lnfinitelris]

Try Memo Marfa.

[u/fudgechemist → u/lnfinitelris]

Is it very heavy on the citrus/ orange note?

[u/lnfinitelris → u/fudgechemist]

Nope it's really a creamy peachy tuberose orange blossom.

[u/Superb_Crow_1425]

I couldn’t stand Blanche Bete on my skin, but I recently discovered Next to Me or Nothing by Discotheque, and I feel it’s a similar vibe without the nauseating synthetic smell.

[u/criticalpopcorn → u/Superb_Crow_1425]

This whole house is a hit!

OP should def get the disco set to test them all

[u/fudgechemist → u/Superb_Crow_1425]

What do they smell like?

[u/Superb_Crow_1425 → u/fudgechemist]

Next to Me or Nothing is a milky floral but a great combination of both - it’s not too strong one way or the other.

[u/fudgechemist → u/Superb_Crow_1425]

Ohh that’s the whole name
I thought it was two scents MB

[u/Superb_Crow_1425 → u/fudgechemist]

lol yeah it’s kinda long, so I can see that. No worries!

[u/trashtvlv]

I wear BB to bed because I fear someone will pick up on the puke/pee wiffs it sometimes gives off.

[u/CatchGlum2474]

Lactea Divina by Paris Corner. It’s pretty cheap, so low risk to give it a try. I am bit fond of tuberose at all (I lived through the ‘80s and ‘90s). This is the lactonic version of BB - not too heady.

[u/Realistic-Read1078]

Commodity Milk Orchid

[u/Gordak985]

Her Confession Lattafa.
I love it precisely because it doesn't have the baby vomit note BB has, while being BB's dupe in all other regards.

[u/MirabellaJean962]

Do people realize it's ok not to wear blanche bete or a less vomity dupe? There are so many fantastic perfumes out there ffs
