I really love the Phlur brand!

Could you share if the perfumes are long lasting?
Today’s perfume is Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir. Haven’t used it in a while so I thought I would give it a go today.
Wearing Jessica Simpson Fancy today
Wearing Si by Giorgio Armani today. Love it.
Jo Malone wood sage & sea salt today, always makes me feel rich, even though I am far from it
Tried Jo Alone Myrrh and Tonka today. It smells slightly different to the Aldi knockoff I think, fractionally nicer to me, but seems to have very little longevity on me. The dry down is really pleasant but very faint.
I find jo Malone perfumes to be as you describe them. Lovely smells, but do not last. I’d urge anyone curious to try the small bottles first before splashing out on the bigger bottles.
I learned the hard way with Jo Malone - got a massive bottle of peony and blush suede after falling in love with it in store. I sprayed it liberally on each wrist. By the time I'd driven home, I'd got a banging headache and felt so sick. I've had that reaction with a few perfumes - annoyingly with Creed Windflower that I badgered my husband into buying me for Christmas last year. He noted the other day that I've barely used it

I’m wearing Bois d’Ascese by Naomi Goodsir - very smoky and tarry. I love it.
Sounds like something I’d like. (Just googled it) i wonder where I can sample it beforehand…
Edit I’m wearing le labo baie 19 and I’m always disappointed by the projection. Kind of can’t wait to finish it.
Peony and Blush is my fave JM and lasts all day. So annoying that happened to you.I learned the hard way with Jo Malone - got a massive bottle of peony and blush suede after falling in love with it in store. I sprayed it liberally on each wrist.

And it's flippin pricey too!
same. i love the JM orange blossom but the smell just does not last at all. by contrast, the aldi versions seem to be incredibly long lasting (based on their pomegranate dupe at least).
You can buy a 1ml sample for £5 from Bloom... a bit expensive I know but I think if you register and buy the sample then if you want a full bottle you get the price of the sample deducted https://bloomperfume.co.uk/products/bois-dascse
Trying Montale intense cafe again, I have a sample and after a second try I still don't like it, actually makes me feel a bit sick. Smells like smoked coffee to me 
I bet I'd love it!Trying Montale intense cafe again, I have a sample and after a second try I still don't like it, actually makes me feel a bit sick. Smells like smoked coffee to me
Glad you got a sample rather than finding out you don't like it after buying full size.
Today’s fragrance is Boss Orange.
Funny how scents are so different on people - I find intense cafe to have a coffee/ tonka bean smell on me. Although rose is meant to be a prominent note and I don’t pick up any rose at all. The Zara dupe ( Rose Gaumand) is heavier on the rose for me but not so much the coffee note and the tonka is there but it’s in the background.Trying Montale intense cafe again, I have a sample and after a second try I still don't like it, actually makes me feel a bit sick.

There are bits of it I like but most of the time it's too much, it's the coffee I think which is strange since I normally love the smell of coffee

Yeah I always make sure to sample as even if I like a scent immediately, I want to make sure it lasts on me!
