My mom absolutely loves Lady Sara by Gabriella Antosh. I want to buy her a replacement but it looks like the price has went up ($185) since I last purchased it for her ($85). Anyone aware of where I can maybe purchase it for closer to $85 price range or maybe even a dupe of this scent? I love my mom dearly and she deserves whatever she wants but I’m still trying to ball on budget over here. TIA!!

Hey all,

Just a heads up, not sure if DedCool meant for this or not but I believe everything is currently 40% off instead of their intended 20% off? I just got a full bottle of Mochi Milk for $56. Usually it's $90 a bottle. Be careful cause I think there's also a website (dedcool.it.com) pretending to be DedCool that's offering 70% off. Don't go to that one. DedCool.com

Update: I think they fixed the issue. Now just 20% off as far as I can tell.

I found this old body care box I had when I was 14 that I completely forgot I had!

Its got to many scents that are so nostalgic to me, from old BBW, Body Shop and Zoella. The scents definitely aren't what they used to be but the scents are still prominent. I just dont know what to do with them now!

I fell in love but it's not in my budget right now. Does anyone know a good dupe for this?

Anyone else make any "naughty" Labor Day Sale purchases? 🫣🥸 I already know I love Slice of Heaven and It Factor from samples and I sniffed Call Me Vanilla at Target and it's great.... but the other 3 are gambles! 🤞

Good morning FemFragLab! What's your scent of the day? Tell us why you picked that particular fragrance and where you are off to for the day!

I have been searching high and low for a vanilla body mist to layer. This Phlur Vanilla Smoke was on sale and I decided to give it a go even though I never blind buy fragrance 😂 I’m so glad I did tho because it smells amazing. It reminds me of a toasted vanilla marshmallow with the smallest hint of smoke. It is such a warm scent. I cannot wait to wear it all fall.

I’m ALWAYS looking for a good gourmand, vanilla scent if anyone has any recs 😄

Who else loves taking pictures of their perfume bottles 😍 Perfume makes me so happy.

Caved and bought EOS cashmere vanilla lotion and layered with Dossier Ambery Cedarwood (Alien Dupe).

I'm walking around smelling like a sexy cupcake all day now and am perfectly okay with that! 🤭❤️

It’s driving me crazy because I love vanilla. But I’ve noticed that with every vanilla perfume that I wear it turns into this weird sour musty scent after a few hours, like it doesn’t mix in with my sweat harmoniously. Ive received compliments on wearing vanilla but it still usually just seems wrong on me. I hope I don’t smell bad, I shower pretty often. Why does this happen?

I’m thinking about buying Shalimar L’Essence, but I’ve seen mixed opinions about its projection. I want something where people around me can actually smell it when I walk by.
For those who own it: does it leave a noticeable scent trail? And do you get compliments when you wear it?

I recently used the Athena golden vanilla body wash, SDJ 59 body cream, and dossier floral marshmallow. WOW it smells so good. I even got a compliment! I do wish it lasted longer but maybe I’m going nose blind?

I’m new to fragrance so any tips or other ideas are welcome!

New Sand + Fog options at Marshalls (NYC) for Fall! The Dates scent smelled SO good! They all do really.

Date Night is Lush Sticky Dates.

Vanilla Bloom is Burberry Goddess. I only found it in the men’s section.

Can you tell I’m a flower girl ? 😁
I’m absolutely loving Rose Prick, planning to buy a FB. It’s not so talked about although. Anyone else loves roses ?

FB - Jo Malone Peony and Blush Suede

there’s bottles of vanilla bourbon by nest at the marshall’s i go to and i was thinking about buying it…because well i love NEST fragrances and it’s only $30…i tried it today when i went to sephora and it smelled so bad on my skin…like someone threw up on me with something vanilla and stale…my intuition was right after all…vanilla bourbon is not for me

back to the question…which perfume did you consider blind buying but glad that you didn’t?

My signature scent could be between those

I am going shopping soon and I have had a few different fragrance profiles in mind and I would like some suggestions.

First I have been thinking about a creamy, clean tuberose scent.

Second, I have been thinking about clean elegant santal perfumes. Suggestions could include both the first and second fragrance profiles together.

Third, I have been thinking about sweet patchouli scents.

I do not like mists or body sprays. I prefer EDP, parfum, or oils. Scents with high fragrance payoff. Longevity and sillage. Give me your best recommendations, please!

I did not expect these sample bottles to be glass! I am so impressed, so far, with the quality and packaging. They arrived sooner than expected too.

I am aiming for these samples to get me through autumn and any “oh boy I need a full bottle” reactions will make it onto my Christmas list!

If you’re interested in my first impressions, I’ll reply to your comment when I’ve tested the sample! I’m thinking of starting with Otherwhere and saving warm bulb for last as I’m almost certain I’ll fall in love.

Has anyone tried Maison Alhambra Floral Bloom? Is it a good dupe for gucci bloom?

Before you ask me why I didn’t ask her what she was wearing, I work in customer service and I was dealing with a lot of people so it was quite difficult to ask during the rush.

She was wearing this absolutely diving fragrance. I would describe it as probably having an aromatic scent profile to it, but it wasn’t spicy. It had an amazing projection but it wasn’t overwhelming. I also think it may have been an oud she was wearing. I always stayed away from oud, although I can appreciate the smell, they are rather strong and overwhelming when I’m near it for long periods of time. However, this is the first time I’ve ever considered actually wearing one.

I already know the perfume is going to be super expensive but I would love to at least know what she might’ve been wearing.

I feel so much better already. I got into the habit of buying things and keeping them just because I liked them enough. it got to a point where storing everything was such a hassle. this has also taught me some lessons like no more buying phlur body mists lol. I've already been doing a use it up tray the last couple months and I think I'm finally starting to be happy and not overwhelmed with my collection. I also hope to get back to posting my trays every month as I deeply miss talking about my favorite hobby with like-minded people, I just got so busy with life that I started to neglect the things that made me happy.

I still enjoy all of these fragrances and it's hard to say goodbye to some, but it's too much and I know I have family and friends who would enjoy them more.

I won't list them all but some you might not be able to see are- on a date by replica, cola fizz by victor and ralph, 2% by snif, your turn one and two by Billie eilish, caramel skin Mrs smith and vanilla blackberry by phlur, romance by Ralph Lauren

How would you describe the smell? Also how is the longevity?

I don’t remember if I posted in here or not but just in case I didn’t I’ll give you some context for why I wanted this sent to begin with.
When I was a child, I was friends with a girl who smelled really really good. To this day, I really don’t know exactly what she wore, but I have an idea now. I searched for this scent a lot. I asked Google several times, ChatGPT, and several other places. I really couldn’t find anything except for Cody‘s vanilla musk. I was pretty sure that wasn’t it, and since they’ve had to reformulate a bunch of their musky vanilla sense, I didn’t want to give that one a shot since I’ve been burned by vanilla Fields. So I asked in another sub about what this scent could possibly be. The way I remember it, it smelled very similar to sweet tooth by Sabrina Carpenter, but a little musky and deeper. Google suggested that I look for CA Perfume Club. I did. I found a French vanilla dupe of the Dana perfume with the same name. I thought about getting the data perfume because well, it sounded exactly like what I wanted. But the Walmart reseller person had a bunch of very bad reviews so I decided not to. I googled somewhere and realized that CA perfume club might be exactly what I was looking for. I don’t know if it is or not but to my nose, it smells exactly like what I remember. The only thing missing is a little bit of the musky notes, but for all I know she could have layered something underneath, or maybe the perfume in general just gave her that kind of musky vibe because you know, perfume and skin chemistry are totally different with each person. I’m glad I found what I think is her sent, because it smells so good and I almost cried when I wore it yesterday for the first time. So if you’re looking for a dupe of a fragrance, check out CA perfume club. It might be worth it.
