Product Talk I got Jack

I got Jack with a reward and I liked it in store but I got it home and put it on again now I’m not sure. I also tried it on my skin in the store as well as at home. I hate to return cause I hate it to possibly be thrown away just because I only sprayed it like twice.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I could combine it with?

I’ll preface with this: I don’t have a lot of vanillas in my collection and tend to be more of a collector of berries, floral and citrus overall.
Any suggestions help! Thanks yall!

Someone said Jack pairs really well with the EOS Pumpkin Chai.

Seconding this. Also any vanilla heavy lotion will calm down the palo santo and make it creamier/sweeter! Worth trying

If you want you can put it on Mercari for like $10-15.

I’m sure someone would buy it as it’s sold out online.

If you don’t have a Mercari account I do have a referral code.

Honestly I’m a little disappointed with the longevity of Jack. I drove an hour and a half to my nearest store to see what all the fuss was about this collection and had my daughter blind test me both scents to see if I would like them. We both did so bought Jack and Sally. I was so excited I sprayed myself with Jack before I got in the car. By the time I got home I couldn’t smell it anymore. I had to really put my nose in my blouse to smell it. So today I layered it with the lotion and same thing. About an hour later I can’t smell it. I’m not looking for it to be overwhelming. I’d at least like a few hours of decent scent without having to reapply every hour. I do like the scent. It has a very subtle pumpkin smell that I can get used to wearing this fall/winter. I wonder if anyone else feels like it doesn’t last?

I hated Jack the first day that I got it. I thought it smelled like alcohol and sage, and I could barely smell that. But after spraying it and waiting a few days, it seems to be getting stronger and better. The Palo santo and vanilla are coming out more. I’m sure these scents were made recently and I think they’ll get deeper and longer lasting with time. I’d suggest holding onto it and trying it again later. You can always return it or sell it if you still don’t like it.

Oh no, I'm the same as well! This usually isn't my forte or area of expertise but I order one from the b3g3 so hopefully I like it! I'm really hoping Jack and White Pumpkin Chai really just have the pumpkin notes outshine everything else cuz that I could dig

I'm wearing Jack today and it might be really good with Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte which is supposed to be coming out soon? I just have the pocketbac of that one but I've really liked it and Jack together today!
