Has anyone used any fragrance by DS & Durga? They have a ‘fragrance enhancer’ called I Don’t Know What and it is *divine* by itself but apparently meant to be used for layering over other perfumes.
Wanted to buy but woefully expensive.
I got a tiny sample of that one in a Space NK fragrance kit. It doesn’t smell of much to me. It’s alright but faint and with very little staying power.

Definitely wouldn’t recommend as a blind buy.

Have had on Narciso Rodriguez -All of me today. Shame the staying power is rubbish as it smells lovely .

I'm not buying Glossier You anymore because the price is eye-watering these days, I remember when I first bought it and it was like £45! (plus they changed the formula years ago and this one is just not the same)

MOD by Ariana Grande are really nice and subtle perfumes for everyday.

Zara perfumes are nice but they discontinue them all the time so I can't be bothered to sift through them by the packed out till area to never be able to buy it again lol
It’s insane now! I took advantage a long time ago of a sale they had and stocked up for the person I buy for, a solid and three sprays. I’m not going to be buying more either.
Zara do my head in changing the designs of what are the same perfumes and I never go in one to smell them, and their website is appalling to use. I’ve blind bought in the past but only liked one!

I'm wearing Elie Saab Elixir today. Doesn't smell that great from the bottle but is much better on, I'd forgotten how nice it is. Def a good winter fragrance, there's quite a rich and unusual base note.

Has anyone tried the Ouai perfumes
I've tried their "flagship" one (Melrose Place, iirc?). You must really like the smell of Ouai haircare, imo, to enjoy it as it's strong version of that on me, but it quickly took on some quite sharp/shrill notes quite quickly as it dried down (could just have been my chemistry, tbh).

I think Kayali is making me break out and itchy 🤣 and I’ve used too much in the space of a few weeks. It’s not a rebuy for me

Yes north bondi is my favourite, it smells exactly like their wave spray. I love the new mist in st Bart’s too. Really good performance from both of them and worth the price tags for sure

Elie Saab is the perfume brand I get the most compliments for. In white is my favourite

I honestly didn’t know that they did perfumes ! now I will spend the evening ‘researching them’ ha ha
I did buy the St Bart’s hair and body mist , it’s gorgeous and I had a few compliments on it

Boots had the last bottle of Alive and it was super cheap. Fragentica had really really negative views however I like it.
The first time I wore it I had a girl ask me what I was wearing and then the next time I wore it this guy said how amazing I smelt.

Replica Springtime in a Park was the last on to try. A floral but fruity number - didn’t think I would like it; not really a floral gal. Was pleasantly surprised.

I would suggest you get samples and try them, they're too expensive to blind buy imo. I haven't tried halfeti. I like glossier and delina. Glossier doesn't really last, it's more of a skin scent. Delina is strong, long lasting and projects a lot so just depends what you're looking for

Thanks that’s what I think I will do as I would imagine that they are all very different to each other ..
