I'm really interested in trying this one - how is it in terms of performance?

Moderate. On me I only get 4/5 ish hours from it. .. but it does smell lovely.

what Frederic le Malle did you order? I would love to try musk ravager and portrait of a lady.

I got the ‘DISCOVERY TRIO SET’ there’s a decent selection (not everything is available by the looks of it) so I picked:
(1) Promise
(2) L'eau D'Hiver
(3) Carnal Flower

€24.50 including postage, both of yours are available!

Not really a scent but Elemis Frangipani Monoi oil on today.

I had the body wash and cream of this. It is lovely.

I have been wearing Armani Si a lot lately, it makes me think of warm summer nights.

SOTD - NEH - The Light . Tangy rhubarb - its fruity but sharp ( a bit like grapefruit). On me - not remotely sweet or overly fruity.

Has anyone tried YSL Libre L’eau Nue? It’s got orange blossom and bergamot in it . Keen to know people’s thoughts.

Reviews were not that positive, longevity seems to be an issue.

How do you find scentbird? I have thought about trying them but some of the reviews put me off.

So far I am liking it but this will only be my third perfume. I find as it comes from the states the delivery is so long, like almost end of the month for each month's scent. I am only using it to get scents I want to try that I won't see in the shops though. Think I will cancel in around 6 months when I have got all the scents I'm interested in.

SOTD Miu Miu Fleur De Lait. I’m still searching for my coconut sunscreen fragrance and as much as I love this I don’t get much coconut!

Is there anywhere you can sell opened perfumes? I’ve got a bottle of Tom ford Bois Pacifique, used maybe 5 times before I realised it’s too spicy smelling for me and made me feel like I needed to sneeze each time I wore it

 

[CherryAcid]

I love Scentbird! Such a great way of trying new and unique fragrances

Yea I thought I would try it for a bit to see how I get on. Theres quite a few that I want to try. What has been your favourite one you have tried?

 

[Crumpet41]

This just doesn’t work for me. Wish I smell what everyone else smells

What does it smell like on you?

 

[Onepotatotwopotato]

One of my favs! I have a sample and waiting to go through the airport to pick up the full size

The new glossier You Soie arrived and I really like it! Opens a bit alcoholic but disappears nearly immediately. Settles to lovely gentle rice, almost coconutty, suncreamy floral. Ambroxan comes out after a while on my skin but I get less than zero bergamot.

That sounds so good might have to blind order it lol

 

[readyplayerson]

I have added all my perfume collection into Claude (AI) along with the perfumes i have trialled and all the thoughts on them. I was thinking i could create a table so its easy to digest ( as its a lot of information)

Would anyone be interested in this?

I would be interested

 

[Girty Drifter]

Yes, it's lovely essentially a sweet, makeup powder scent

Thank you

SOTD - M&S Soft Neroli. Not one I particularly like, it’s not offensive, it’s just a bit meh. The furthest I’m going is to the CoOp to buy milk

 

[readyplayerson]

What does it smell like on you?

Really sharp and masculine, maybe bitter might be the word I’m looking for? Tried the exclusif as well and it was just the same! I don’t know how it’s compared to fleur Narcotique or levant, it smells nothing like them to me!

[it’s not been changed?!]

I can still smell fashionably London on my watch strap today. It was the elixir version. I don’t need anymore perfume atm, though 🫣
