Fragrance Help
Hello all,
I collect men’s fragrances and my wife, all these years later, has finally started to get interested in fragrances. She has a sensitive nose and has always shy’d away from the wearing them, usually due to intensity. Even now that’s she’s starting to wear them, she’ll specifically spray on the back of her neck and her high forearm/inside of her elbows so she doesn’t get blasted by the fragrance if she brings her hands to her face.
I’m considering getting her a fragrance for the holidays (yes I understand the risk lol), what would you all recommend may be in her wheelhouse? I figured I’d ask now so I have time to get decants and test at stores. I put some notes about what she owns and what she likes.
- Right now she owns and loves Mojave Ghost Absolu, Gypsy Water EDP, PDM Delina Exclusif, Delroba Rose
Musk, TF Soleil Neige. She also likes some of the Roger & Gallet body sprays, specifically Fleur de Figuer and Amande Persiane
- She’s currently on a hunt to smell Champs Elysee by Guerlain. She has a coworker who wears it and she loves the way it smells. I mentioned to her spraying it on her own skin to make sure she likes the way it smells on her skin specifically.
- Some fragrances shes smell on me or just smelled independently, she enjoys PDM Castley, PDM Greenley, PDM Galloway, TF Grey Vetiver, TF Ombré leather, TF Costa Azzurra Parfum, TF Neroli Portofino EDP, Ex Nihilo Blue Talisman, Versace Man Au Fraiche, MFK 724, MFK Gentle Fluidity, PDM Valaya, PDM Palatin, Initio Atomic Rose.
- She hates/thinks is too strong - Pegasus Exclusif, Layton Exclusif, Oud Maracuja (very depressing for me lol), Hibiscus Mahajad, Nishane Ani, Guerlain L’homme ideal, Byredo Black Saffron, Le Labo Santal 33, TF Black Orchid, TF Vanilla Sex, TF Ebene Fume, MFK Baccarat Rouge, MFK Kurky, Xerjoff Erba Pura.
- She hates oud, doesn’t like anything overly floral or sweet.
Any help or direction is greatly appreciated :). And for anyone who was ready to say it… I’ve already purchased or am price watching Delina, Delina La rosee, and Valaya lol. I’m getting her each of those before the holidays. No
