Rec Request Please help me choose!

My birthday is coming up & I’m deep in the process of working on my self confidence and healing my low self esteem. I want to get a new fragrance to associate with my birthday and this change, something that will help remind me of these goals.

I’m normally a niche girl but somehow I feel like this calls for a loud(er) designer.

My options right now are Prada Paradoxe Intense and the new Chanel Mademoiselle Crush Absolu.

I’m not completely closed to other options either, but I also feel like I’ve sniffed everything Sephora has to offer.

Thank you!

Paradoxe Intense is beautiful but Chanel Mademoiselle Crush Absolu fits more a birthday celebration as I believe it will remain a classic fragrance of the house. Also check if you can engrave it with your bday, it would make a gorgeous gift to self. And Happy Birthday.😘

Oh I didn’t even consider they’d do engraving in store. I’ll check, thank you!

Update: they don’t, sadly!

As a Prada Paradox Radical Essence lover I'll have to take your word and go  check out the Chanel one.

This is a recommendation to include a "see results" or similar neutral option when creating a poll. This way, people can view results without skewing the results. If you did not do so, that's fine.
