This was a really fun blind buy under $5!

This was a really fun blind buy under $5!

The packaging it came in is fun, the bottle looks like a cigar. At first spray it smelled fruity/aquatic/fresh and then the dry down became more of a fruity floral but woodsy. I just purchased another one to give to my sister! The packaging is unique and different. I for sure thought I’d hate this so I was surprised! My husband also likes it and said he’d wear it himself. It’s not typically the style I wear but after so many let downs lately with discovery sets, this was a surprise especially how cheap it is and also off of Amazon..I had low expectations.

I wish I knew the notes but every source lists different notes so I’m not totally sure. The scent is very light and I don’t think it lasts very long but if you’re wanting to smell something new for $5, I think this is worth it!

Searching for something I love with strong sillage

I went through my mom’s collection and tried her Carolina Herrera good girl and I can still smell it hours later. I want something with the same intensity but my style. My husband loves the GG but it’s not me. I realized after trying GG that my perfumes just don’t last. I used to get compliments all the time on my scent and my friends know me as such but lately no one smells me!!!

My faves past and present:
Dark Rose by Octavia Morgan
Colette by Tocca
Dulce by Rosie Jane (only vanilla I’ve liked)
She called but he was unreachable (discontinued)
Sexy little things Noir (not tease, also disc.)
Turkish Rose and Seville Orange by Nest
Rosie by Rosie Jane
7 summers by Dime

My vibe:
Rose, labdanum, slightly woody, sultry, deep, mysterious, intoxicating, fresh, plum, blackberry, resin, musk, orange, aquatic, subtle pepper, bergamot, subtle vanilla, feminine and masculine, incense

Not my vibe:
Gardenia, dessert, overly sweet, overly floral with sweet, tonka bean, smokey

I’d love any recs!!!! I’d like to stay under $200 but open if it’s the right perfume. Thank you!!!

$10 from Walmart! G Water dupe and Colette Tocca dupe

When I purchased it from Walmart last night I couldn’t smell it at all. It was straight water. I was bummed but gave it another shot today and I can still smell it hours later! It’s not super strong but it’s nice for wearing around the house or right out of the shower.
