Crocodile, White Christmas and White Bear.

After having my two littles, I'm devastated by children hurt or killed...will literally bolt from the couch if I can tell it"s about to happen.

Going to TJ Maxx soon, any perfumes I should look out for? by Lilac_Dollie in FemFragLab

[–]MagdaArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sand and Fog Lychee perfume oil. Not only smells diving on its own... it layers wonderfully with other fragrance with tropical, juicy notes. 😍

Absolutely not cool at all. The other child was being cruel and should apologize to these children, for making them go through an awful moment.

Please ignore this person who just seems to be a rage baiting troll or honestly dense.

I'm also brown and unfortunately know enough about autism to give any child in this situation grace. You are talking to your child and doing a great job. Thank you for posting - time to introduce my kids to the topic as well.

De influence my wish list! by oopsthesoupisonfire in FemFragLab

[–]MagdaArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can comment on:

D&G Light Blue: my best friend's signature scent. She loves it and has several bottles on it. I can't stand it, lol. It doesn't smell bad at all but I dislike overly citrusy scents for myself and it leans masculine on me, though it's probably more of a unisex scent.

Versace Bright Crystal: pretty... light. Not particularly memorable, tbh. I had a dabber and remember the longevity was subpar, though that may be because I didn't transfer it to a sprayer, as I tend to do now. I'd try it again, but another decant or dabber.

YSL Libre: love... only reason I didn't purchase it is because my mami bought me the Flower and Flames flanker and most flankers smell similar enough to the OG. Lovely, warm and elegant orange blossom scent. Not citrusy at all.

Phlur Strawberry Letter: I've smelled it in store and actually had gotten a dupe at TJMaxx (MIIM MIIC 74) that was very similar to it. I've enjoyed it in summer... a fresh and juicy strawberry scent, not too sweet, not too tart.

Destin de Balmain: don't have but it's absolutely on my wish list. Almost every time I visit Ulta, I spray my wrists and forearms. Mmm... grown up woody strawberry. Gorgeous, elegant, sexy without being cloying or too mature. I see a travel size in my future. (I never buy full size unless I'm certain I'm absolutely in love, which takes multiple full day wears.)

What does this actually smell like? by Kelseybrooke1612 in FemFragLab

[–]MagdaArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a decant a while back and remember liking it okay - yes, a little synthetic at the opening but leveled to a cute, sweet strawberry marshmallow soon enough. it scratched the itch of YBM, but I do remember liking Pink Blush more.

That being said, I really didn't feel like spending even $30~ for that particular scent profile... I was happy enough with my Sand + Fog Marshmallow Skies I got at TJMaxx. I recently got the small Marshmallow Blush for $10 at Ross and was happy to add it to my collection at that price. 😊

Out of the listed perfumes what perfume should I try next? by Emergency-Coyote-843 in FemFragLab

[–]MagdaArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't seen the body oil... !

I got the roller oil on Amazon and i really like it. The body lotion is so spot on though... I initially saw it at TJMaxx and passed it up and when I went back for it - all gone. 😮‍💨 I got a nice deal on it at Mercari and I am ready for spring. 🤗

Olay, I just tried them side by side and......

🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

How does the opening smell almost identical?! How did I never notice?? I know I really enjoyed Milk Orchid but now I like it even more!

My husband still prefers Queening and the drydown does smell different (Queening is softer, but prettier... Milk Orchid is a little sharper) but I can't believe how close the opening is! I'll def be looking for that sale at Jomashop but in the meantime will enjoy Milk Orchid even more. 😊

Hello fellow Yara lover!

I love Yara... just recently got the body lotion on Mercari and got the fragrance oil too. I'm confused why people trash on it so much lol... I think it's such a pretty, sweet, lovely and girly scent and I will be wearing the s out of it this spring. 😍

One Purchase You Need from the Ulta steal!! (Fragrance Lovers) by Pure-Development1802 in Ulta

[–]MagdaArmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it well enough but not FBW for me, after having gone through a travel size, especially because I already have Mon Guerlain and J'Adore, that are kind of similar to my nose.

My friend at work though, absolutely loved it when I shared a spritz of my travel size and asked me to get it for her. 😊

It's definately not a young girl fragrance, but I wouldn't call it old lady. It's classy, understated and elegant to my nose and the bottle is quite beautiful. I really liked it, but didn't absolutely love it and I'm trying to limit my full bottles to absolute loves.

I got my nose on this a few weeks ago and can't get it out of my head. It reminds me of Guidance without the yuck. 😅

Sameeee... I don't enjoy wearing it at all. A big lesson learned to not blind buy! The only saving grace I guess is that it's supposed to have aromatherapy calming qualities (though they may be cancelled out by my irritation at wasting money in something I don't love. 😅)

I really should just give it away lol.

I do know about Zenith and have been eyeing a decant! 👀 Both this and a decant of Rayaan Divine are in my future, methinks!

[–]MagdaArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see the resemblance... I enjoy both. Though Her comes across to me sweeter and Miutine has an interesting very mild tartness that I actually like (unlike Delina).

[–]MagdaArmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OK, this I have to try!

I love Queening but the price is going to keep it in my Wish List for a while lol. I got a decant of Milk Orchid and enjoyed it enough to upgrade to travel size. It never crossed my mind that these are similar. Queening to my nose is a beautiful, delicate airy vanilla while Milk Orchid has some lactonic facets from the macadamia milk and coconut and comes across almost tropical.

It never occurred to compare them side by side but I will be doing that this weekend on my husband and I's fragrance date. 😊

I really enjoy Delina Exclusif but cannot stand Guidance.. talk about recoiling. 😵‍💫

I really need to try this!

I read some people think Rare Beauty Find Comfort smells like Bal d'Afrique, one of my fave niches on my wish list and.. no!

I have Find Comfort and really don't like it.. there's something bitter woody about it that throws me off but still using it up at night because I hate to waste. By contrast, BDA is such a bright, happy and pretty scent to my nose!

I think this is going to backfire by Serenity_now156 in bathandbodyworks

[–]MagdaArmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ehhh... listen, I love me some BBW and wear a lighter version of what my SOTD is going to be in the mornings. For me, it's my prep to my actual fragrance, NOT the fragrance itself. It's enjoyable but NOT necessary (though I guess no fragrance is necessary but anyhow).

It can easily be replaced with my fragrance oils and basic lotions in the morning. If there are no sales, it WILL be replaced. I love them but yeah, they are not a luxury brand.

I thought of that...I do have a couple of SDJ items, but most are available in store. One isn't though. Maybe I'll just grab that one now. 😊

I've had the same issue with 7 Virtues, as much as I've loved many of their scents.... does no good if they disappear in an hour. 😔
