Henry Rose Rhu Berry
The opening is really nice and tart - lots of rhubarb, some peaches and a little hint of citrus. I love this opening! Somewhere in the middle, got the strawberry jam note, which had a slightly artificial smell, like strawberry candy. It wasn't off putting necessarily, and settled down really quickly. As it wore on, it got so much better. The best way I can describe it is a baked jam. Like a warm berry cobbler or tart - how the fruit smells right out of the oven. But not overbearing - like you're smelling it from the next room. The pastry/bread note isn't prominent to my nose. It's there, but sort of in the background, grounding everything.
I was very excited when I first saw it because the notes sounded so good. Blind bought a travel size, and it's a hit for me! This is my first time to review a fragrance, so I hope I was able to convey my thoughts well!

Dream blush found
I just wanted to sing the praises of the Ilia blurring blush - in Glimpse. The color and formula are so good! I went into Sephora fully intending to buy a YSL blush, but after I tried this one, I was sold. This blush wasn’t even on my radar until I kept seeing it suggested on this sub. I’ve not had luck with other Ilia products, but this is a winner!
I’ve been struggling to find a blush for about a year that works with my skin tone. I have fair, cool leaning neutral skin with some underlying redness. Most blushes pull too warm on me, and then others look almost clown-like. Trying to find a balance of a soft rosy pink that doesn’t have too much red has been a struggle! Glimpse is the perfect balance for me, and the very subtle shimmer is gorgeous!

Return Advice
I bought a NWT dress and when I received it, it had stains on the hem and under each armpit that you can’t see in the listing photos. Seller responded to my return request (as expected) that they inspected the item and it wasn’t this way when shipped out. However, when I went back and looked at the listing photos, I can faintly see one of the stains, since I now know where to look. If you don’t know what it is, it kind of just looks like lighting.
Should I respond? Or does this just go in their favor that you can subtly see one of the stains? Should I just let Posh sort it out?

Seeking Cream blush match to Rare Beauty Hope
Rare Beauty in Hope really is that perfect neutral shade for me. I’ve tried LOTS of blushes, and while the color is perfection, I miss the ease of a cream blush. Do you know any *almost exact* color matches to Hope in a great creamy formulation? I use Westman Petal from time to time, but it’s definitely more pink on me than Hope. Though I love that formula!

I feel betrayed! (And a warning)
Kayali Fleur Majesty has been on my list to try because the notes sound like a blend I would really enjoy. I love warm leaning fruity florals, especially when rose and peony are involved, and the peach! I’ve seen it referred to as Delina-esque, and I adore Delina.
I was in Sephora today and spritzed ONE small squirt on my wrist - heaven! The opening of this was almost perfection in my book. Juicy fruits wrapped in gorgeous flowers. Not anywhere close to Delina on me, but beautiful, nonetheless. This is surely a winner, I think to myself. But let’s not be hasty, and see how it wears a bit.
Ten minutes later, this is still marvelous, though it’s turning quite sweet. No problem, I do enjoy some sweet fragrances. A little later in the car…wow, this is becoming SWEET sweet. Like I smell like a pink starburst, in the most unpleasant and artificial way. That one squirt was starting to claim every inch of fresh air available. Cloying and beast mode are not adequate descriptions. Three scrubs, two soaps and an oil cleanser later, it’s finally bearable. But not gone. No, I’ll be living with this poor decision for a while longer.
Moral of the story - never judge a fragrance within the first ten minutes. Let alone the first hour. Body chemistry has a way of taking things sideways sometimes!
Which leads me to a question: which of the notes in this are likely the culprit for the sugary bomb that nearly took me out today??

Can a return be cancelled?
I purchased a dress that arrived with a stain in the front, and Poshmark approved my return. The seller also responded and said it was likely makeup, and she would like the dress back so she can try to clean it.
It wasn’t a huge spot, right on the edge, so I thought…I’m going to try and get it out. I’ve searched for this dress for almost a year - I finally found it at a great price, and was SO sad about the stain. I got it out! So I would like to keep the dress.
Is there a way to cancel a return? Can I just click the accept button? Or do I just not send it back? I don’t want her funds held up - what’s the best option?
(I messaged posh support but they said it could be 1-3 days before hearing back, and I’m supposed to send the return back in the mean time.)

Men's Clothes
Do men's clothes just not sell?
I'm a relatively newer seller and have had decent success with my own clothes. But my husband recently cleaned out his closet, and I thought I would list some of this things - brands like Travis Mathew, J Crew, etc. Zero traction. No shares, no likes. Crickets.
I know the recent update has affected things, because I'm feeling it with my women's listings as well. But I had posted a small handful of his items earlier this year, before any updates, and they also just got ignored. So thinking maybe Posh isn't the right platform for men's clothes? Would love any feedback.
PS - all my listings are steamed, in great lighting, with measurements and detailed descriptions
