I'd try it!

I have to say though, I'm pretty fed up of every autumn/winter perfume having vanilla notes 😅

Not sure if it's already been mentioned - sorry if it has.
Coco by Chanel the foaming shower wash is discontinued! I can order some from Europe, but has anyone found a good dupe or similar. I can find loads of mademoiselle but not Coco 😭 the perfume is still available and body lotion (randomly)

Now you're going to have to give me a list of what you wear!
Pretty please!

Mostly M&S ones (especially the no longer available Discover Sunset which I love) but also La Vie Est Belle and Black Opium get me the sugar cookie comments - any perfume with vanilla in smells predominantly vanillaey on me for some reason. Oh Britney's Midnight Fantasy too.
Wearing Discover Sunset today and a guy just asked if I could smell cake 🎂 🤣

Today’s try out was Lazy Sunday Morning. A light floral scent; pleasant enough but just not for me
Yes agree, I shelled out £60 and thought it sounded wonderful, to be honest it's weak and nothing special, I should have bought the samples before ordering

Is anyone selling on their buying mistakes on eBay? Are things going? Or not? I don’t want to put on vinted as I didn’t even manage to sell a room spray on there without getting it removed

I've sold a few over the years that I grew tired of on ebay. Obviously the rarer or discontinued ones will go for good prices, but I've not had difficulty in selling popular or contemporary fragrances as long as they're in good condition, well priced and honestly described. I think sometimes the market waxes and wanes, but before the festive period is usually a good time to go for it. The last time I sold was a few years ago, so things may have changed? But I'd definitely do it again. Better some cash back rather than a regretful purchase gathering dust. :)

That's so interesting! When I wear La Vie Est Belle I don't get the vanilla at all and I'd love to cos I love vanilla!!
I find it fascinating how different perfumes smell on different people.

I have just bought that one because it doesn’t smell of vanilla.
I really don’t like vanilla smells

You must have great body chemistry because I've tried all of these and apart from Britney, none of them smelled like vanilla or cake on me.

Resale sites have got so strict, perfume basically has to be wrapped new in the original box for it to be allowed.

It's been a while but Depop was the least strict for allowing opened or half used perfume last I checked.

You can probably get away with it on Ebay if you still have the box and list it as new other or something like that.

Otherwise, Facebook groups and marketplace!

I treated myself to some Good Girl on holiday as I got a good deal and it smells lovely. Unsure how I've never tried it before.

The OG? There are so many lovely flankers for it too. I think supreme is my favourite. it’s very sexy. Really gorgeous Tonka bean note.
