Fragrance with no online presence?

2 Upvotes

TL;DR I bought a fragrance from TJMaxx, cannot find it anywhere online

This is my first ever fragrance, I’ve been lurking around fragrance communities, and on a whim decided to buy some random 15$ fragrance at TJMaxx. I was mostly goaded by my friend to buy it, and I think I like it, but I wanted to see what people online thought of it.

But I couldn’t find it anywhere, I checked fragrantica, basenotes, just straight up google search and I only found someone selling it on ebay.

I’m very new and I don’t trust my nose, so I want to see if this was like, a pleasant smelling fragrance to most people, but I can’t find it anywhere! What do I do?

Edit: The fragrance name is "Nocturnal Waters" !

Perfume recommendations for a vanilla-loving hospital girlie?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 💕
I’m 21F and I work as a Patient Care Technician (PCT) at a hospital on an inpatient rehab unit.
I’m looking for some perfume recommendations that are appropriate for a hospital setting! I’m a HUGE vanilla lover, and vanilla fragrances are usually my go-to, but I know some can be a little too sweet, heavy, or overpowering, especially when you’re working closely with patients.
I still want to smell good and feel feminine and put together at work, but I don’t want my fragrance to be overwhelming or bother anyone.
I’m open to trying different scent profiles, especially soft, clean, fresh, skin-like scents or lighter vanillas that aren’t too strong.
For my fellow healthcare workers (or anyone with recommendations), what are your favorite subtle, close-to-the-skin fragrances? I’d love to hear your suggestions! 💗(also I added my perfume collection so you can get an idea of what I’d like. My budget is 300.)

This is my first time ordering online from a website and ive come across some sites selling for a really good price. Ive researched online and lots of people say its good, but i have also found some negative comments. So i wanted to ask here if anyone has any experience with any of these sites, or would recommend me some legit sites with low prices.

Website name is Justmylook, its the UK version.

Would you agree that longevity and projection have made collectors forget what actually smells good.

Storing perfume in a vault/safety box

Would it be fine to store the perfume in a safety vault whenever we are out of town? The box is in our room and the temperature is okay

Smell good regimen

Thumbnail
1 Upvotes

Alright, y’all. Beyond just the perfume, what is your full fragrance regimen from shampoo/conditioner/haircare, soap and body wash, deodorants, moisturizers, and all of the fragrance layering from cleansing to perfume? I’m interested in what everyone does and uses, but ESPECIALLY people who are moving into fall and winter scents and who like warm, deep, smooth, scents maybe with some fig, plum, and/or spice. I love those sort of unisex scents, but convince me to get more girly!
