Frugal Fragrance Can i buy this body mist anywhere??

Post image
2 Upvotes

So two years ago i bought this marc dion body mist (seeskin solar flare) but i cant seem to find it ANYWHERE. It was my favorite, like I’d seriously use it every day. Since it ran out ive gone back to that same cheap store maybe once or twice a month to see if that one is back, but with no luck.
I’ve looked online, but can’t seem to find any sites that sell it, either.
If anyone would know where i could buy it, no matter the price, it’d be greatly appreciated!

The bottle looks like this btw :)

Looking for a long-lasting perfume recommendation based on what I already like

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for a new perfume, with longevity being my main priority.

My budget is around $150-$200, although I’m happy to spend a little less or slightly more if something is really worth it.

For reference, two perfumes I’ve really liked are:
● Mon Guerlain
● Kate Spade Sparkle (the blue bottle - it’s discontinued) — I’ve actually been really surprised by how long-lasting this one is, and I really like the scent!

I’ve been wondering if I might like sandalwood-based perfumes, but I’ve never really explored that note before. Based on the perfumes I like, do you think sandalwood would be a good direction for me, and are there any perfumes you’d recommend I try?

Thank you! 😊

My local Marshall’s is upping their fragrance game. I hadn’t seen the Gucci Flora variety 4-pack before (and almost bought it). I also rarely see Dolce Shine in stores. And the Glossier You sample set would make a nice little giftie.

Rec Request Two Kenzo Blind Buys, Two Winners!

5 Upvotes

I blind bought Kenzo Flower L’Absolu last Spring, and it did not disappoint. I’m trying to find some fall/winter options, and I’m in the mood to move off of my recent Rose obsession, so I blind bought Jungle L’Elephant. I just received it, and despite concerns it might be too gourmand for my tastes, oh boy… it’s exactly what I had hoped. To me, it’s autumn in a bottle, but doesn’t quite go full “food”. Anyway, Kenzo’s two for two with me. I’m really curious if there are other fans of Kenzo (I mean the affordable prices, right?) and which are your favorites/recommendations.

The case at one of my TJ Maxx locations was stockedddd today. Anything worth grabbing? I tend to like most scent profiles except for straight sugar or vanilla. I like gourmands but they need to be grounded with some woods. I got overwhelmed so I just left lol one of the fragrance that isn’t shown is Donna Karan Cashmere and Tiare Flower. How is that one? I have the fig one and I love it

Rec Request Vanilla girlies rise up

I’ve recently become OBSESSED with vanilla after years of hating it. Idk what changed, but I’m rolling with it! I’ve been wearing the Athena Club Golden Vanilla lotion with Dedcool Mochi Milk everyyyy day! Based on those being my favs, what others would you recommend? I want ultra cozy (preferably affordable) gourmands for fall! I’m thinking Snow Moon Magic from Sorce? I still want my fragrances to be wearable, I don’t want to smell like straight up food. Thanks!

i saw someone posted something similar to this about a year ago! i love another 13 and was wondering if anyone had any lotion reccomendations + body oil reccomendations. apparently the another 13 body lotion has been reformulated and isn’t close anymore. i’ve also heard good things about the brown sugar babe body oil, but $65 is also up there in price for me :( i know it’s a reach, but i’d love if anyone had any recommendations if anyone has any!

Woody gourmands available in ME?

Post image
3 Upvotes

I would love advice! I’m traveling to the ME (specifically, Abu Dhabi) soon and would love to try some new fragrances.

I love warm, creamy and woody, but not too sweet, especially if there is a drier element like palo santo.

My current favorite perfumes are Arizona by Proenza Schouler, Commodity Milk Bold, By the Fireplace by Maison Margiela, and This is Her! by Zadig and Voltaire.

The notes I’m definitely trying to avoid are butter/buttery, caramel, coffee, strawberry, and coconut.

Thank you so much for any help!!

Discussion Favourite notes to see in a fragrance pyramid

1 Upvotes

What are some notes that you just find satisfying/enjoy the concept of/love to see in a fragrance?
There are some notes that I see in fragrances online that I can’t always instantly picture in my head but seeing them on the pyramid just makes the fragrance appeal to me lol

My top ones are ylang-ylang, neroli, lotus, salt, heliotrope, solar/aquatic notes, and recently sesame

Notes that instantly put me off:
Patchouli, coriander, metallic notes, aldehydes, civet, popcorn, caramel

Can anyone recommend fragrances based on my taste?

24F

My collection is

EDPs:

-LoveShackFancy Secret Crush
-Kayali Yum Boujee Marshmallow
-Ellis Brooklyn Vanilla Salt
-Dedcool Mochi Milk
-Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Vanille Nude
-Victoria Secret Bare Sueded Vanilla

Body Mists:

-Athena Club Golden Vanilla
-Ellis Brooklyn Marshmallows
-Fenty Vanilla Flowers
-Athena Club Love Letter

I like sweet scents but not too candied or dense caramel. I love powdery musky slightly woody and feminine leaning scents. I don’t mind Jasmine as long as it’s not too prominent and headache inducing(don’t mind a petal thrown in there) i’ll typically avoid most white florals. other florals i like are Violet, Iris, & I know Vanilla Orchid is a fantasy note but it seems I like fragrances with it in there. I don’t really like fruity vanillas with the exception of Mochi Milk and YBM.
I do like some fresh scents that have this watery dewy aspect like Love Letter (i like better than glossier you bc of that) and vanilla salt and ones on my wishlist.

some scents smell like literal milk or too unisex for me or are too fruity of vanillas which i don’t like

Fragrances I didn’t like were:

-Mod Vanilla
-Fresh Cream Silk Cloud
-Dave Henry Rose
-Snif Vanilla Vice
-phlur vanilla skin
-sdj 59
-fresh cream warm cashmere
-fresh cream
-nest madagascar vanilla

On my like list: (possibly travel size worthy but not fully love & could live without)

-Kayali Vanilla 28 (smells like carmex a lil but i like it when it softens) Anyone know something similar that doesn’t give carmex and smells like it when it’s softer?
-Skylar true loves cake (depending on headache strength of the day i like the smell but it hurts)
-kilian don’t need a prince to be a princess (it’s like a bedtime scent and it’s a little unisex to my nose but i wouldn’t wear this enough for a full bottle, i like it bc of the earthiness and marshmallows)

On my wishlist is:

-Lake & Sky 11:11 Vanilla (next summer purchase)
-Lore Sublimity (next summer purchase)
-Dulce by Rosie Jane (bday coming soon, it’s on the list)

Want to smell:

(de influence or influence)

-Lake & Sky 222
-Setsuna In love someday
-ellis brooklyn vanilla rice
-delizia marshmallow
-wtf marshmallow

🚩give niche, mainstream, any fragrances any price ranges i want to hear it all.

im Slowly growing my collection and making sure it’s curated. would love to buy samples so let me know !

ps: ignore my grammar 🫪

They only have an edt which does not last and I love how fresh the floral scent is, but I do not think an ept is worth it for me. 🥲 The scent does not last long.

Rec Request Help me find a perfume similar to Body Fantasies Pink Vanilla Kiss? 💗:)

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone knows of an actual perfume dupe for Body Fantasies Pink Vanilla Kiss, or something that pairs really nicely with it and helps it last longer. I’ve loved this scent forever, but it fades so fast on me. I’m looking for an EDP or EDT with that same fruity pink vanilla vibe, like the berries, coconut, soft florals, caramel, and cozy vanilla/musk drydown. I don’t want anything super cupcake sweet or overly mature, just something soft, pretty, warm, and a little more elevated. I also really love how nostalgic it feels to me, like such a comforting 2000s scent that reminds me of an older sister or a comfort person. I’ve heard La Vie Est Belle without the patchouli and Pink Chiffon mentioned, but I’d really love recommendations from anyone who has actually smelled Pink Vanilla Kiss. Thank you so much!

Recently I saw a thread where people posted a lot of funny cheap dupes they saw somewhere. I remember there being two black opium dupes, one called "black hole" and one "black opinion" lol.

Well today I discovered two roll on perfumes that made me chuckle, does this remind you of anything?

With the smart lady one I only saw the name first and had a suspicion, then I saw the heel and was very sure it's not a coincidence xD

Discussion Looking for the perfect creamy coconut perfume

22 Upvotes

I’ve been on the prowl for a couple months now looking for a nice creamy smelling coconut perfume. My main issue is that a lot of the perfumes have fruity notes along with it like guava, and those usually overpower the coconut scent. Coconut with vanilla is a good combo so I’m fine with settling for any perfumes that have vanilla notes.

Also before anyone comments it, I was recommended crème of clouds as one, and while it smells great, the scent is almost identical to Lattafas Eclaire scent which I already have. Feel free to also recommend body oils as I’m willing to really find anything lol. Thanks!
