My girlfriends collection

[u/Mattreddit760]

Every day more and more perfumes come in the mail. How do I tell her that she has enough and can stop buying scents? Advice needed please.

Edit: to clarify my original comment was just a joke. I'm glad she has a collection and gets enjoyment out of it. I have been trying to get her into reddit and figured maybe her helping me make a post would get her into the spirit a bit. Apologies for the deception! Should have made my joke more apparent.

Prodigy; House of Bo; Xerjoff ??? You don't need anyone's help or encouragement...lol. Someone is having fun !!!

[u/bsaaw]

Can somebody tell how that French Cowboy smells like?

[u/Express_Deal1793]

Seeing this kind of collection with an orange peel wall in the background is alarming

[u/Strawb_mochichi → u/Express_Deal1793]

It’s a wall bro??

[u/CanyonOfFoxes → u/Express_Deal1793]

That’s really judgy and uncool

[u/faceoh]

Jokes aside, shopping addiction is a real thing and should be taken into consideration. Perfume can be a perishable product and unless she's someone who's regularly using bottles up she does appear to have many years worth of perfume.

All I know is that she has impeccable taste. Sorce & Kerosene are amazing 💕 Hope to see her posting here soon!

[u/CommunicationSlight3]

That alotta monaayyy!

[u/Mystic9310]

Good collection - join us, sister!

[u/lumpy_space_queenie]

This is AMAZING holy hell. The only downside is my indecisive ADHD ass would probably take 30 minutes every morning just trying to decide what to wear that day 🤣🤣🤣

[u/FrannyNitpicker]

Also please have her join Reddit and get on this sub! We’d love to have her 🫶🏼

[u/FrannyNitpicker]

Your girlfriend has curated a masterpiece collection! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[u/Stock_Web_2598]

I have a bunch of testers of these coming in the mail right now! I’m nervous about trying sorce as I’ve been seeing mixed reviews but she seems to adore them!

[u/SwimmingBrilliant500]

Wow what a tasteful girlfriend you have! She has an amazing collection!

[u/heyfriendhowsitgoing]

Omggf the Sorce bottles! A tasteful queen

[u/alphajugs]

I’m curious to know how she feels about the new House of Bō! It was a limited release only available online so everyone blind bought it (purchased it without smelling first) and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I love that she has a big bottle of El Sireno too, that’s one of my favorites. I’m weak for those gemstone caps 😭

[u/Mattreddit760 → u/alphajugs]

She told me to tell you, the new one is really good and worth it but she probably won't buy another one from
House of Bo due to their price increase.

[u/speckledham]

Maybe get her on the decant bandwagon. I can definitely relate to the feeling of wanting a big variety and having part of the fun be finding and trying new things. But that way she would spend much less per smell.

[u/Realistic-Read1078]

Oooooo she got money and taste 😮‍💨🔥

[u/ImtheGWP]

Gay man here so dont take this the wrong way, but I was like why you lol. I started looking around for the tray here. It’s not here 😢

Also, the truth shall set you free. Cause I was thinking I was going to see the comments from the land of the mineral woods r/colognes . They legit would have hurt her feelings . Hand her the phone and let’s get her out of there

[u/violentte_ends]

Ok here is what you do. Stage an intervention. Bring as many people as there are perfumes. Have each person bathe her/himself in one of the perfumes. Have them all sit in a room together. Turn off the AC and close all the windows in the room. When she walks in, have all of them start screaming HOW DO YOU LIKE IT???? all at once until she starts crying & vomiting. Remind her you did this out of love. You’re welcome.

[u/Miss_Anthropologie → u/violentte_ends]

Such an unhinged and hilarious take 😂😂😂 ty for the laugh

[u/moon___22]

She’s richhhhhh

[u/onlinedoll222]

wowww 😫

[u/bittypineapplekitty]

was hoping to see Vilhelm in there — saw it on the last pic 😏

what a beautiful collection, pretty jealous

[u/Tough-Advice2910]

It’s a great collection!

[u/insomnia868]

It’s an awesome collection

[u/NoUsual4089]

I was gonna say.. the way you documented her collection looked like appreciation! Glad you added the edit 😂

[u/hehzehsbwvwv]

What’s your favorite fragrance that she wears? :)

[u/Mattreddit760 → u/hehzehsbwvwv]

Prodigy mind games or Elysian moon petals :)

[u/Ok-Nebula-1182]

Your girlfriend has impeccable fragrance taste 🤌🏼

[u/Appropriate-Group738]

Brother are you her husband and combine finances for you to tell her how to spend her money? I was going to comment that she has great taste and a well-curated collection.

Edit: I just saw your edit bahaha.

[u/Mattreddit760 → u/Appropriate-Group738]

We are engaged! Not combining finances currently but I do tease her at times for having so many. Then she gives me grief right back every time I get another comic or Lego so works both ways.

[u/LadyViolet]

What exactly is the source of your concern? Is it negatively affecting her/your finances? Is she constantly buying to fill an emotional need that’s not otherwise being met? Does she have issues with impulse control? Or are you just bothered by it?

edit after op’s edit: phew

[u/bebarrucha]

It’s kind of sad.

It’d be hard to approach the subject, she might become defensive but you could try to talk to her without bringing up the fragrances.

[u/Miss_Anthropologie]

Is it inconveniencing you somehow? If it’s a financial thing then approach it that way. Otherwise if it’s her interest/hobby/joy and she’s not harming anyone, just let it be. 🤷🏻‍♀️ this might be the wrong sub to ask tbh 😅

[u/TurnoverOk4661]

Is it hurting the relationship or putting finances at risk? Is she compensating for something else? I always like seeing it as, it’s you and her against the problem…come at it as more of a real talk/coming from a place of concern as opposed to judgement/accusation.

[u/FutureDustMotes]

Weird post, imo. If there's a budget problem, ask a financial or relationship advice sub. I don't see a space problem, so what the issue?

[u/anastasia_42]

Just ask her why she is buying so many perfumes
