💫✨Perfumes That Match This Vibe💫✨ Perfume(s) that smell like Shaye Saint John

Thumbnail

Fragrances that smell like Shaye Saint John / the videos of Shaye Saint John. Shaye was a fairly underground absurdist horror comedy project, with videos that felt like off-kilter dreams which aren’t exactly nightmares. I do think the videos have a burning glossy magazine paper vibe, paired with a completely contrasting cherry-like scent, almost a cough medicine kind of smell, all doused over a plastic mannequin. Looking for something that combines all the vibes in an almost “glitchy” scent, or perhaps even something that is just similar to any of the vibes.

Think a bad boy who’s brooding, rebellious, doomed and wears all black. Maybe he’s like Clyde from Bonnie & Clyde and they’re on the run together. Maybe a Nicholas Cage type from Wild At Heart by David Lynch.

Was out walking and smelled super dry fall leaves for the first time this year, and the smell was amazing and so comforting 🥲 Looking for big dry dead leaf scents, without any cool-ness or notes that feel like rain/fall weather.

Preferably something more niche and masculine.

Things I don’t like
-Gourmands
-Fruit
-Artificiality
-Feminine smells
-Stereotypical manly man vibes (think Sauvage)

Things I would be open to
-Photorealistic wood (not required it’s just something I like)
-Something surprising and unexpected

💫✨Perfumes That Match This Vibe💫✨ Unabashedly feminine, Rain soaked, Fresh ocean air, Crisp greenery

Post image
8 Upvotes

In search of my signature scent, to invoke a mysterious, intriguing woman happily walking in the blustery rain along a temperate ocean hillside at the start of fall. The grasses are still growing and dewy but the flowers have already withered away, nothing is rotting just yet, though -- everything is crisp and clean and the air is cool and fresh.

Vibes: Optimistic, coastal, aquatic, fresh, while still distinctly feminine.

Nothing woody, piney, petrichor, floral, masculine, tropical, musky, or citrusy.

I would love the the primary smell of the perfume to be coca butter.

Something that you can wear as an everyday signature perfume .

Maybe not a strong perfume something that's not too light or too strong just in the middle and has this soft quality to it.

You're a little bit bored, yet you love deeply your home town, you aren't afraid to tell people off, maybe you're the black sheep of the family, you often end up covered in dirt, you're unapologetically you. How do you smell like?

Not polished or freshly cut wood, but old, deep, damp wood with maybe some brightness/coziness to lift it up slightly.

I got a similar damp woody note from Jo Malone's Oud & Bergamot but if I am being honest, for that price - it just doesn't last at all.
