What fragrances lived up to their hype?

What fragrances lived up to their hype?

I ended up loving Maison Margiela Replica By the Fireplace (though I haven’t enjoyed any other scents I’ve tried from the brand) and Le Labo Santal 33, both of which are very, very popular mainstream scents.

What was the last perfume you didn't like?

What was the last perfume you didn't like?

Fresh Rose Morning Eau de Parfum, which I only bought because I love the scent of Fresh’s rose skincare, and this is so “perfumey” to me… not like fresh roses at all.

What was the last perfume you fell in love with?

How important is the packaging for a perfume?

How important is the packaging for a perfume?

I just prefer a perfume I can spray on, rather than roll or dab, so that’s my only requirement. I find I don’t like most perfume bottles anyway, so packaging has become a nonfactor outside of functionality.
