best whipped cream/heavy cream scents! GO... 🍦
ok friends, looking for the best either whipped cream or heavy cream parfum and/or body oils !! if you have a *lotion* suggestion as well i'll listen to anything related to this scent !.
i tried all the philosophy fresh creams today & my fave is the original. i've also been looking on small businesses pages at different scents, and there are just so many.. i figured id come here & get your opinions of what smells the best.. most photorealistic, long lasting gourmand, creamy scents!
all price points welcome (i probably won't get anything too expensive but i know that's subjective so just throw them at me!!) PLEASE! 🙏🏼🍦🩷
Bought this for the thrill of it, expecting to return it.. and I actually love it🤣!
Name your favorite cheapie, bonus points if they last long!
I am looking for a true lychee perfume! Ideally one where the lychee note lasts for longer than 5 seconds 😭 please give me your recommendations!!
I'm looking for a simple gourmand vanilla.
I've tried a few different vanilla decants (Bianco Latte, Fire At Will, Althair, Vanilla Powder, Dulce). The only one that doesn't give me a plasticky, waxy, artificial, and/or playdough scent is Black II by WIDIAN. Unfortunately, it's very expensive: well over 300$ CAD for 50mL, which I just can't justify right now.
I should mention that although it's slightly synthetic (and yogurty) I do like the EOS Vanilla Cashmere lotion.
I despise super ambers, so if you can also actually smell them like I can I’d really value your input! Nothing by JHAG, Initio, Matiere Premier, Goldfield & Banks, or BTSO please; every fragrance I've tried from these brands contains super amber(s).
I'd love some suggestions for what decants/samples I should try next!
TL;DR: I’m looking for a relatively inexpensive (ideally under $150) gourmand vanilla that doesn't smell like plastic, playdough, or super ambers.
I'm so happy! I've been wanting her FOREVER but have such a hard time buying anything that isn't a travel size. Anyone already have her and love her, or have another favorite Sorce perfume? I have a sample of Snow Moon Magic and English Major I have yet to try!
I’m in the hospital and having an extremely difficult time. I’m on very intense antibiotics, etc. I am losing hope and I not sure I will ever get back to baseline. Usually when I am down or going through something, I will use perfume as a pick me up and buy a new one to celebrate an accomplishment. Are any of you the same? And if so, what are you wanting next?
Coming soon! NEW Yum Body Care collection from Kayali!! These lip balms ($24) and body creams ($48) release August 31 at Sephora and Kayali's website. - credit: scentreport
Well it looks like Mona was teasing lip balm and body butters but to be honest these prices are a bit higher than I anticipated but I’m definitely going to be waiting on the reviews before purchasing also for those body butters prices they could at least put them in glass jars and not plastic but that’s just my two cents what are your thoughts on the new drops?
I've been actually having the worst week, but forced myself to go out and do some small errands after my shower.
I stopped by my bank and when I was about to leave, the teller told me how great I smelled. I usually only get compliments from people I know, even at my doctor's office with the staff, so this was a really nice surprise and it really lifted my mood ☺️
I'm not normally a huge fan of Kayali or Josie Maran, so it's kind of ironic lol, but I bought some stuff recently for the first time in months and I'm glad I did as they smell really amazing and it's been helping me feel like myself a little more again.
I am looking for a new pear scent to add to my collection and I would like to hear your recommendations.
Juicy, could be a bit sweet, not too heavy, I am open to all kinds od suggestions.
I really love Jimmy Choo and I am currently trying Paris Corner pear potion, so feel free to share your opinion.
Please remain kind and respectful, thank you.💚
I’m currently in South Korea and came across a bunch of Korean perfume brands that I’m not very familiar with, including Pleuvoir, SENNOK, RboW, LOiViE, and Longtake. Does anyone have experience with these brands or specific scents you’d recommend? I’d love to pick up a few while I’m here!
I’ve always been curious about Poison by Dior, the hype, the legendary status, everything. I never got around to sampling it, even though friends and forums kept mentioning it. Recently, I finally tried it at a counter, and the dark, spicy sweetness hit exactly how I imagined, intense, bold, and a little mysterious. It made me wonder what all the fuss had been about for decades. Is there a fragrance you’ve avoided for years just because it felt too hyped or expensive?
*Weekend not weeking obviously
Hello smelly folks (lol) !
So, this weekend I'm meeting a new friend / crush (🤭) for the first time and I can't decide on a scent to bring with me...

Elizabeth Arden - White Tea
Prada Paradoxe - Virtual Flower
Chloé Nomade - Lumière d'Égypte
Lanvin - Éclat d'Arpège
Issey Miyake - A drop
Baïja - Primavera (scented mist)
Thank you ! 🪻🌷🌱
Recently came to the realisation that all my current perfumes are summery/ fruit-forward. Looking for something gourmand but not necessarily sugary, not childish or overly mature/sexy. Does such a thing exist? 🙏 I'm also a fan of woody and incense fragrances that lean feminine without having overt floral or powder notes.
I picked up Versace Bright Crystal Absolu at Costco yesterday for $59.99 but now am debating whether I should keep it or not. The price is similar to discounters like Jomashop and FragranceNet. I have not smelled it previously. It was the only Versace EDP - the rest of the Versace fragrances were Bright Crystal EDT. I enjoy a wide range of scent profiles, from creamy tropical and solar to oceanic freshies and fruity florals. I also adore deep sensual warm evening type of scents like Versace Crustal Noir EDP and Parfum. Some have compared this fragrance to Victoria's Secret Bombshell and I have to say I really like a lot of the Victoria's Secret perfumes, including many of the Bombshell flankers. Others have said this is generic and not long lasting. Any insights are appreciated. I have a relatively large collection so I am trying to discern whether or not I truly should keep this fragrance!
Fragrance Family: Floral
Scent Type: Floral, fruity, musky
Key Notes
Top - Yuzu, Iced Accord, Pomegranate
Middle - Peony, Magnolia, Lotus Flower, Raspberry
Base - Acajou, Vegetal Amber, Musk
I was explaining to him the fragrance wheel, notes, designer vs niche, current trends etc and he goes chocolate, we want you to smell like chocolate.
I was like wait what? I hate gourmands but I don't want to miss an opportunity to convert him from a "water in bottle" to oh that's green and fresh, also because I want to find a sexy chocolate fragrance that could possibly signify sexy time.
I am a floral-chypre lover otherwise with a hint of fruitiness to it.
If y'all can drop your most chocolatey non chocolatey fragrances that aren't artificial and can make me change my mind about gourmands, preferably a dark chocolate, I will spray some baccarat rouge on you 🌹
I’m looking for a super airy and light floral with no heavy base notes! Maybe even just a 1-3 note floral!
Maybe it’s just my skin, but a lot of the time the base notes in fragrances get really intense on me and florals I’ve been excited to try just smell really intensely like whatever the base is on me- vanilla, tonka, leather, oud, amber, woodsy notes, ambergris, etc. I’m looking for fragrances that are essentially lacking a heavy base note.
I’m really into Blomb no. 31 dreamy, it’s violet, mimosa, jasmine, almond blossom and musk. The musk is very very quiet in this one. It actually stays jasmine and violet forward on me the whole time I wear it, but it’s sadly pretty short lived. I’m curious about lilac no.4 from universal flowering but I’ve read a lot of reviews about it being heavier than you’d expect for a one note lilac scent. Of course I’m still gonna grab a sample, but I wanna add some others to my cart while I’m at it!
I feel like well done one (or few) note airy fragrances are few and far between! I’m not a perfumer but maybe it’s just hard to nail it without something to ground those airy notes, but I’m asking nonetheless! I see 11:11 by lake&skye recommended a lot for this but on me it was just a warm, woody musk.
I got a small tester and the smell is very yummy and almost close to beast mode maybe, it really has a realistic caramel popcorn smell like you are in the cinema , I wonder if people will find this offensive ? or its just a scent I use when I'm alone?
Ngl I don't like KAYALI that much they are overrated but they nailed it this time, I really find the smell is addictive and guilty pleasure.
