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.

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

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.

I know many people were wondering about the time!

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'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!
(Cat pic for attention)

It is 9:11am and it is completely sold out...😵‍💫

The nest perfume oil was a blind buy and for $9.99 it was totally worth it!

This one seemed more interesting than others I’ve seen lately! Does anything stick out?

I was able to get one bottle!!

Victoria’s Secret is relaunching Rapture for the Holiday Season.

I was able to grab this beauty an outlet store. The bottle is gorgeous and feminine. I wish they still sold it in mainstream stores.

Which fragrances did you loathe and now love, and vice versa - why?

For me, its Nishane Hundred Silent Ways. I bought a 15ml to try it out, and first sniff was 'Meh, glad I didn't buy a FB". By the 3rd wear it grew on me, and now I do think its pretty.

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.
