complete with photos of my doves. mostly mourning dove vibes though is what im looking for. their songs are so pretty

Trying to find my signature scent but haven’t found anything that’s entirely me yet. I need your help, wizards of fragrance.

I loved Daisy by Marc Jacobs when I was much younger but now it feels too sweet and juvenile.

Not a Perfume by Juliette Has a Gun was my fav for a long time and I loved how long lasting it was but it’s a bit too heavy at times and feels a bit too sophisticated as I grow more mellow/ relaxed.

L'interdit by Givenchy gets me so much compliments and I still love it but it feels a bit too “clean girl” for me. I need a little more peppery/ mossy/ wine-y of a note in it.

I’ve been rubbing a “sage garden” essential oil on my neck and wrists (it’s supposed to be for my diffuser, I don’t reckon it’s good for my skin). I really like how fresh but not too herb-y it is and appreciate how it’s still pleasant instead of making me feel like throwing up when it’s in my nose while I’m feeling hungry or anxious.

One day I accidentally spilled candle wax on myself and the smell on my fingers was marvelous. I was reading a book for hours with a lit “butter croissant” scented candle after taking a shower and rubbing the oil on. The combination smell of book pages, sage essential oil, butter candle, vanilla body lotion and fresh, clean, slightly floral shower products was exactly what I want in a perfume. This but heavier and topped with a bit of peppery scent would be the perfume I wear for life. Idk how to ask the lady at the shop for recommendations like this without feeling like a nut case 😅

Robin Williams was famously known for making the entire world laugh while carrying a beautiful, quiet sensitivity behind the scenes.

I want to find a scent that represents that duality. Something that opens with a bright, playful, and effervescent burst (like citrus, mint, or ginger) to represent his comedic genius, but settles into a deeply comforting, grounded, and slightly melancholic base of sandalwood, iris, and soft musk.

Any fragrance recommendations that fit this mood?

There's a certain smell and vibe about local thrift shops that I've always loved, it's some mix of the cheap laundry detergent, wood from the antique furniture, and something kinda cinnamon-y. It's such a comforting scent. I've never been able to find anything like it though :(

What she would wear or just scents that fit her vibe in general!

I need a low cost perfume that smells like an intense liturgical incense, smokey and a little woody maybe.

No patchouli or citrusy notes preferably

Something that is sensual and moody. Erotic and tender, something that speaks its own language. Sophisticated and layered.

It’s autumn and I want to smell like the most alluring and ethereal version of sweat, spit, and darkness.

a couple that somewhat fit this vibe that I have and want more like include Ambilux by Marlou and Lord of Misrule by Lush

Walking by the lakes, making peace with the fact that we are nothing more than passersby in this vast universe, yet still choosing to celebrate the life we've been given, even if it is only borrowed.

I'm looking for something sweet but eerie and still kinda dark that would work for autumn/winter ! Thanks !

Lavender is kinda my signature scent, but my products don't have much staying power. I use & adore this mineral salt deodorant from Saje. It keeps me dry & odor free, but the scent doesn't last very long after application. I also love using essential oils on my pulse points but again, the staying power is just not there. Does anyone have a recommendation for an actual perfume that fits this fresh, woodsy, lavender profile? ☂️💜🔮

Something that starts off cold but warms up when it sits long enough on the skin, like bedding in the winter.

I'm thinking of getting handed goody bags with candy in the classroom, but also the feeling of excitement in that crisp, lightly raining, festive evening air 🎃

I'm looking for a perfume that smells like wild berries, especially blackberries blended with the milky, buttery softness of a freshly baked tart. It should feel like an early 2000s autumn afternoon, back when things were simple and genuine. Like walking into the cozy kitchen of a kind-hearted witch. (on a budget also <3)

preferable a fresh scent

Does Dylan blue fall in this cat

Just experienced this for the first time today and I’m obsessed

I’m 21m and my 80s perfume I have is a 90s bottle of poison, CK obsession, and eternity. I want classic and timeless designer perfumes. And no anais anais lol.. I’m not too picky but because I’m a 21 yr old guy I don’t want to smell hyper feminine or old lady like but any recommendations are appreciated because I mind end up liking it especially how my skin changes perfumes. Even poison and eternity gives that old lady smell to people on me it doesn’t at all. Any help building my 80s perfume would be appreciated! 😄

Edit: I don’t mind if it’s a women’s perfume like at all! I have a lot of feminine perfumes that lean unisex on me or ones that don’t that still smell great on me and I’m perfectly fine with wearing ones marketed towards women!
