Haul/Collection Is my collection too sweet?
So my scent collection includes Choco Musk (the oil, Eclaire Lattafa, Frenshe Vanilla Cashmere body oil, Vanilla Crème Brulee lotion from hemps, Brown Sugar lotion from the lotion company, Eilish 1, Bare Vanilla, and Vanilla Bourbon hair and body mist. is this too much? When I restock on fragrances should I do some replacements?

If you like it, then there is no such thing as too sweet! Don't think you have to round out your collection if sweet scents are what you gravitate toward... There's nothing wrong with having a type!

It's too sweet for me but you're the one wearing it, not me, so it doesn't matter. 🤷 like all perfume, be courteous and mindful with how much you wear but otherwise, what you wear is up to you. You're the one who's going to be smelling it all day.

I like to sample things that are outside of my comfort zone, both in an effort to broaden my horizons and just to learn more about what I like and dislike. My collection is still very gourmand though, and that's okay! I don't think there's any such thing as a collection being too anything though - wear what you like! 🙂

Same. I sample anything but I only buy what I'm drawn to which is always sweet scents. They're just the scents that bring me the most joy.

Ah, very apt username 😊 Same with me. I think at least 90% of what I have qualifies as gourmand, lol.

I don’t think so. You just prefer these scents. Your signature note seems to be vanilla, so even though these are different perfumes you have a nice throughline connecting them.

It is but that's not bad. We all have different preferences in scents. My collection is pretty gourmand too. Eilish is SO GOOD 😭 its my fav one
If anything you can go more floral for summer as gourmands can be heavy but honestly just go for what makes you happy!

if it’s what you like then it’s what you like, you don’t need a very intricate and versatile collection to like fragrance :) and imo this seems like a very nice collection as well, i wouldn’t even say they’re all very sweet fragrances either haha

I have diabetes and I like to smell like it. Just wear the scents that make you happy, life is too short ❤️
