hi! my gf bought me a bottle of Ffern perfume for Christmas (Spring 2026 bottle), but the scent is a little too green for me. I want to sell on a different subreddit, but the brand is a small-batch perfumery. I'm asking for advice on whether people actually know about this brand and their general thoughts and feelings about it!

hi again! I have a new perfume quest: I would like a smell that reminds me of being a Chicagoan. I think these are my concept notes:

• an empty car on the pink line at sunrise
• drinking a Hugo Spritz at a restaurant w patio seating in Andersonville
• a jazz night in Bronzeville w your homegirls and ending the evening at the Whistler
• writing a poem when Harold Washington is busier than usual
• eating red fruit on the beach at Ohio St on the hottest day of the year
• the farmers market in Rogers Park
• a brownstone apartment in Hyde Park, where you're eating dinner with your girls on a warm, rainy Tuesday night

I want it to be fruity but crisp and light w a heavier/muskier dry down. AND IF YOU'RE ALSO A CHICAGOAN PLS LMK YOUR THOUGHTS!

EDIT: ppl keep dogging me about my love of an empty car; let me be clear: an empty CLEAN car LMAO

hi hi! first time poster on this sub hehe

I think as soon as I turned 24, my obsession with perfume increased tenfold. my goal is that before I turn 25, that I have a signature scent. my ideal scent describes the title; I love fruity scents but I hate that a lot of perfumes have vanilla or are too gourmand for my liking. I always end up smelly like a sticky toddler, which I hate. I want to smell juicy and I want to smell like a picnic w sparkling, sweet fruity wine or a smell that places me on a beautiful estate over a bridge (for some reason) with the sun beating down and a bowl of various fruit in my lap. the notes I know I have enjoyed are:

• rhubarb
• vetiver PLUS a fruit (any fruit)
  • usually vetiver and rose work as long as there is a fruit with it
• pomegranate
• currants
• gardenia
• lychee
• oakmoss
• mimosa flower
• jasmine sambac/pikake
• lily of the valley
  • or any white floral
• red fruit but not strawberry

here are some perfumes I have also enjoyed, for more context of what I'm looking for:

• Venus in Fleur by Sorce
• Under the Mango Tree by Anjali Perfumes
• Winter 26 by Ffern
• Very Good Girl by Carolina Herrera (I know it's not Indie)
• Lazulio by Diptyque
• Granada Salvia by Guerlain

if any of this description reminds you of a perfume you've enjoyed, please let me know!!! I'm excited to be exposed to more Indie perfumes overall.
