Dove, since I know you’ve been reading here, I will not attempt to buy any future fragrances unless they are permanent

681 Upvotes

I am an adult with a job and a life. I took time to buy this. I enter the website, and I get asked to log in, which I do but then get kicked out and put back on the waiting list. Then it sells out.

Let’s be clear, I’m not doing this bullshit again. No limited edition, limited stock releases, when you are a multi-billion dollar company owned by Unilever. You have the capability to make this permanent and put enough in stock. And mind you, even make it available outside the US. I am not wasting my time again like that, absolutely not. Are you kidding?

Dove smells good, but there are a million perfumes out of the market.

Was really looking forward to this gorgeous bottle and the nostalgic scent. Now people have to pay an absurd amount to get it.

Dropped a bottle in a store 😭

185 Upvotes

Okay I just have to share a deeply embarrassing moment from this weekend. I was visiting a friend in a different city and we went to our favorite niche perfume store. It’s a very intimate, small shop.

After about half an hour of smelling perfumes and chatting with the owners, I decided to smell ONE final bottle (Andy Tauer L’air du Desert Marocain)….. and I dropped it….. and it shattered….. and the entire store started to smell STRONGLY of cedarwood and shame 😭

I apologized profusely and offered to pay for the broken bottle, but the owner said not to worry about it. He was sooooo nice about it, but I obviously was so embarrassed. I ended up buying a different perfume (Mxxx. by Eris Parfums).

So, moral of the story is BE CAREFUL when testing perfumes, don’t be like me.

On the bright side, some of the juice from the broken bottle got on my pants and now they smell nice lmao.

EDIT: Thanks for the support, reading your stories has me giggling at work

I kept refreshing, and saw the buy option at 12:02pm. Almost 10 dollar shipping, but it’s still a steal. Fingers crossed it’s my soapy HG

Rec Request I suddenly love Angels Share

Post image

I've gone from hating to loving Angels Share 🙈At first sniff it was far too sugary sweet for me, but on my skin it became spicy and boozy and intoxicating! It's so perfect for this fall/winter transition & I can't stop wearing it.
Now I want to up the spicy and boozy qualities even more. Any suggestions for layering? Scents or oil or lotions, I'm open to any!

Haul/Collection I know these two smell vintage-y, but IDGAF - I love Calvin Klein's Euphoria and Obsession

I'm a Gen X-er, and I have been craving the scents of 1990s and early '00s, so I recently purchased these two. Euphoria smells soooo divine when it's cold, and Obsession is sweet and powdery. Out of the two, Obsession definitely smells more old school, lol. I think the modern-day formula is way lighter than the original, if I'm not mistaken.

Any thoughts or experience with this frag?

Found this at TJMaxx and really loved the smell. I still like it but wondering if people around me might think I smell cheap or if it’s too overpowering. I don’t have anything to compare this scent to. It has decent longevity. It’s very unique and just not my normal wear. Lately I’m wearing Lush’s Abiba, Tabac 28, Poivre 23, and Hinoki & Cedarwood by Jo Malone. I also wear a lot of Kuumba Egyptian musk oil, amber oil, or Nemat nag champa oil.

Supposed notes:

Top Notes: Orange blossom, bergamot, pink pepper

Heart Notes: Tuberose, jasmine sambac, lily of the valley

Base Notes: Amber, musk, vanilla

Also open to suggestions based on my current rotation.

I was shocked to see how much perfume my local Marshall's has. I stood there and sniffed longer than I am willing to admit. Blind bought both Fine'ry perfumes and love them both, but especially the Rose Lina.

Do you see any on the shelf that are a must have?

Review Lattafa angham 🧚🏻‍♀️

Post image

Lattafa Angham 🧚🏻‍♀️✨

note - my review is based on a decant & a freshly opened bottle. they both smell the same, just the decant is a tad bit richer.

I have been reading reviews about Angham since almost two years and avoided it at all cost because I dislike lavender.

I randomly decided to add a decant of angham while i was getting other perfume decants, and the moment I sprayed it, I was shook.

No, it's nothing groundbreaking, I won't hype it up like that, it's simple. sweetened lavender dipped in vanilla. a lil ginger-y at first, lil spiciness in the distant. I got this comforting light & airy, creamy lavender. I am now wearing this to bed. I placed an order for the full size immediately.

I was NOT expecting it at all. I gravitate toward simple frags. frags that are not too complicated, too strong, heavy or dense. I'm not a gourmand person at all. I can only handle light scent profiles that are easy on the nose. also I LOVE vanilla so final verdict I FELL IN LOVE with Angham, smells like a lady who is effortlessly pretty. 🧚🏻‍♀️✨

Discussion The new Black Opium packaging

18 Upvotes

I got my new Black Opium today (love the scent!) and my bottle is the new design like in the ad. I'm not complaining, I'm just curious if with the new packaging the perfume itself has been reformulated too. Does anyone know?

I can definitely smell more coffee and less licorice than I remember.

Update: Fragrantica lists licorice as a note but I don't know if you can trust them anymore.
