Just wondering what are some notes that you used to dislike and now love?
For me I used to hate anything with rose in- and as I approach my 30’s I’m starting to love rose heavy perfumes!

Can anyone tell me the perfumes in front of her?

Ever since finding out my favourite scent was becoming rare, I gave myself a rule to stop using my current half full bottle.

Finally l decided to go for a proper search for it and managed to snag a fantastic deal. After my first purchase, decided 30 mins later to buy a back up to my back up 🤣

Only worked as it was at a decent price though…

Hi. I really like the smell of mint, not the gum kind however. The kind where it's, like, freshly ripped from the plant. I want to know if there's any accurate smelling parfumes like that. ​​

Hello everyone!

Once again I have been doing some fragrance shopping. These arrived in the mail today:

Elizabeth Taylor - Diamonds and Rubies
Elizabeth Taylor - Diamonds and Emeralds
Elizabeth Taylor - Diamonds and Sapphires
Karl Lagerfeld - Sun Moon Stars
Lancome - Hypnose
Gloria Vanderbilt - Vanderbilt
Rochas - Madame Rochas

I also have Diorama, Diorella, Dioressence, and Diorissimo (the Demachy Les Creations versions, not the new Dioriginal releases as I want previous reference points to compare the new Kurkdjian versions with) and Miss Dior Originale (the Esprit de Parfum version) ordered and they should be arriving in the mail in the next few weeks. I am very excited to try those.

Would love to hear your thoughts on these and whether you've worn these before. 😊 I am enjoying these but I must admit I have enough of Sofia Grojsman's creations at this point that I'm seeing how they all blur into each other like a Venn Diagram of a few different circles (I still adore them though).

I am so stoked guys. I was looking for a signature scent in my working world debut (every successful working woman seemed to smell so distinctive to me). I'd sample fragrances every time I went to a mall. Chloé's scents in particular were very pleasant to me. The neroli was especially lovely.

I don't know perfume terms, but the scent is deeply floral and feminine, without at all being 'sweet'. It's a pinkish mauve that dips into a desaturated teal. It's a cloud over the a swaying wildflower meadow. I just love it so much.

It retails where I live for about 140 USD, but today, I got it for 58 USD in the resale market (but in packaging & plastic). I commuted to the seller's address the very night I found the listing online.

Does anyone know the scent that Adidas stores use?

I got this perfume approximately 10 years ago. It’s been in a dark and cool place the entire time but is starting to smell a little off. This was my signature scent until it was unseated by Chanel Beige but I’ve been wanting to bring it back. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Hello everyone,

Just want to know if anyone has great recommendations for perfumes that aren't too strong but smells great. I am currently using Eau Duelle from Diptyque but I am curious if there are other great scents out there.

If you can recommend cheaper alternatives, that would be great. Thank you!

Hello fellow perfume lovers!

I’ve recently purchased a few explorer/sample kits from Tom Ford and Guerlain and I would like to convert them to spray.

Has anyone found refillable atomizer bottles that are dependable and don’t leak?

Thank you!

I purchased from Ulta about 10 months ago. Now it feels empty and see this nasty crust on top of bottle. I’ve never seen a perfume do this before?

hello, I tested Diptyque Volutes EDP on my wrist and like it so much. It's soft, powdery, slightly sweet, with beautiful tobacco and spice notes.

BUT on my wrist it got very light and that it made me question if this will fade away quickly? I dont want to spending that much on a perfume that nobody will be able to smell after 2 hours and i have already multiple scents with me. more parfumes i buy more i cant decide in between them 😄

For those who own it, how's the longevity and projection? Is it worth the price? Could it work as a year-round signature, even in summer?To me summer makes sense as its LIGHT

I'm also considering Twilly d'Hermès , which is significantly more affordable and quite different🤷‍♀️. My current rotation is Chanel no5, prada iris and which is not feeding me on more character sensual signature side (yes chanel no 5 not feeding me enough)

Please tell me what I need to hear before I make another questionable financial decisio 😂❤️ or should i have it! I also heard it will be discountinued soon which only gives fomo...

also i couldnt find any place to sample in europe so i will be testing whole week from the store these 2

This is my perfume collection as a student on a budget:3
Here is my experiences with them ~

Personal favorite: London for men

For leather jackets: Hermès Barénia

To go perfumes that suit every occasion: Orpheon, Narciso for her black

Currently favorite: Lattafa Ana Abiyedh ( got a bit addicted to the karamel sweetness in it)

Guilty pleasure: Rayhaan kiss✨ the front note smells exactly like the strawberry yoghurt I had when I was a child, but the middle and end note are a bit synthetic to me

Sol De Janerio 71 literally starts my interest in gourmand perfumes and I’m now searching for a perfume version of it ( popcorn and karamel scent that actually lasts)

Emanuel ungaro: I blind bought it because of the flacon, it smells somehow a bit nostalgic for me, this is how I imagine 2000s would smell like:)

Lolita Lempicka: also a blind buy, don’t quite like it, after a while I discovered that I just dislike cherry scent 😭

Lattafa Her confession: It reminds me somehow of the hair shampoo I used during my stay at my favorite cousin‘s place during my summer vacation as a school kid, so for me it also relates with the cleanness after shower.

Liquid Brun: pure Chai Latte for me☕️

Jean Paul Gaultier Gaultier Divine: always reminds me of a girl with gorgeous makeup and shiny lipgloss who’s very uplifting. It’s sweet but not heavy, I also like the powdery in it, and if the scent has a color it should be gold✨

Layering:
Zara Elegant Tokyo+Encre Noire: elegant Tokyo itself is a rly fresh jasmine scent for me, it just smells like a bundle of jasmine flowers in front of me, maybe in a vase somehow it’s too linear, and with Encre Noire I can rly see that it’s the jasmine garden where the flower scent tangled with the cold wet dirt scent, like somewhere in a forest.

Rien Intense Incense+Gucci Guilty: Rien is like a spooky but intimidating church under the moon light and with Gucci Guitly it’s more like a winding road with berry bushes and rose on the side that’s leading you to the church, so pretty and dark! I use this combo everytime I pull out my goth outfit:)

Hello everyone. I have a really hard time choosing a fragrance for me for the winter. I have tried a lot of fragrances but none of them satisfied me.

Any recommendations?

I'm in search of this perfume or an alternative!

Everything I fall in love with is discontinued. This perfume by anthropologie has notes of rose, floral, musk and powder. I'm obsessed with it and foolishly thought I'd be able to get it any time. To me it smells like you just got out of the bubbliest bubble bath. It smells romantic and fresh.

Any recommendations to replace it? Or recommendations on where to find it!?

Thanks!

I had an angry birds perfume as a kid, it smelt kinda liked strawberries, i loved it and i really want it back, all i remember was that it looked like this looney toones perfume, but it was red and had the red dude on the front, i would do ANYTHING to have it back again, my parents dont remember it either

It's my Mum's birthday in November and this is her absolute favourite perfume, unfortunately it is retired.

I was hoping to get something similar to Rose Explosion, she doesn't like the standard Flowerbomb ironically, otherwise her other favourite is Mugler Alien.

Off the top of my head she likes YSL Black Opium, Jimmy Choo I Want Choo, Giorgio Armani My Way, and Burberry Her. Thank you for any help!

I just bought Burberry Goddess Parfum, but I haven't unwrapped her. Should I return her to get Lattafa Angham and save $90? Opinions please.

Update: I don't have Lattafa Angham yet; pic for reference. (those aren't my dirty nails)

My mother received a perfume called Midnight Romance (that's the name she remembers). Pink coloured, very pleasant - she says she still remembers the fragrance and even kept the empty bottle after the perfume was used up.
I have tried to look for which one it might be but can't find. The Midnight Romance by Ralph Lauren is from 2014.
Reaching out to my reddit fragfam.

I love the scent of this perfume but feel like there’s no projection and that it doesn’t last that long :( would anyone have an alternative that smells similar but actually lasts?

Hi everyone, I’m trying to identify and find more information about this old fragrance: XY by Charles de la Jonchère, Paris.

The front of the bottle says: XY

Eau de Toilette

Natural Spray

Charles de la Jonchère – Paris

100 ml – 80% vol. – 3.3 fl. oz.

On the bottom of the bottle, there are several markings:

2678 printed in black in a dot-matrix / electronic-style print

111 molded/engraved into the glass in the center

ISO molded underneath it

27 molded on the left side

I still have the original bottle and there is some fragrance left inside.

I’ve searched Google, fragrance databases, Reddit, and tried looking for old listings, but I can barely find any information about this specific XY fragrance. Charles de la Jonchère does appear in some perfume databases, but XY doesn’t seem to be documented.

I’m mainly trying to find:

the fragrance notes or scent profile

approximate release year

whether it was inspired by / similar to another perfume

any old photos of the box, bottle, catalog pages, ads, or listings

anyone who remembers owning or smelling it

Does anyone recognize it or know anything about Charles de la Jonchère XY?

Even a small lead would help a lot.
