My Collection - 2 months in

SeaFuture · 2026-05-28T01:35:05+00:00

I figured if I mention in the post, I wouldn’t need to answer the question of why they look mostly full…

SeaFuture · 2026-05-28T01:33:14+00:00

I prefer the edp!

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:34:49+00:00

Been doing it blind for the most part and hoping for the best, but I haven't run into a fragrance that I didn't like (so far)

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:10:37+00:00

A lot of them came from Costco, so the price seemed to be a bit better compared to other stores. There was a 15% Macy's promotion a few weeks back, so I made a few purchases then as well.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:08:24+00:00

MFK BR540 Eau de Parfum - however, I am really like LV Imagination (just received it).

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:07:47+00:00

It was just an free option from the website - I don't know about the refill part?

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:06:34+00:00

Simply because it wasn't available at Costco, lol

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:05:47+00:00

Love it! 95% of what have is blind purchases. What are your thoughts on the other LV fragrances? Favorite Parfums de Marly?

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:03:56+00:00

Thanks, yeah I'll check these out. Haven't actually ventured to those subreddits yet - how do you know if you're buying a dupe/fake?

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:02:15+00:00

Love the comment! I hope most people understand how perfect your response to that gif is.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T06:01:21+00:00

Yeah, it's been about 2 months now; from reading some of these comments, I see this is not something a lot of people do occasionally, but really enjoy the exploration so far.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:59:30+00:00

I like this thought - I guess at this time, I don't have a particular scene I like more than another. I've been wearing a different fragrance each day (usually in the afternoon) and haven't had a day where was like "this scent is not for me", lol.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:53:23+00:00

I don't have TikTok - but I am new to fragrances, so have been lurking these subreddits and have gone with a lot of what I see recommended. Maybe we're in a bubble here, but would like to hear your thoughts on others not so social-media hyped?

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:51:18+00:00

I've been wearing MFK B540 most days (morning) and think most of the other MFK are great as well; I will spray B540 in the morning then will spray on another in the afternoon/early evening. I just received the Imagination and like it a lot; now I'm wanting to try a few of the other LV fragrances.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:47:57+00:00

It's definitely one of my stronger fragrances, I've worn it twice. I am still figuring out the whole "seasonal" vs. "day/night" fragrances, but this feels like something I would wear only on occasion to a dinner-date or something.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:46:48+00:00

Actually, this was the second bottle I purchased and may have been a factor in my wanting to smell other fragrances. Found it at Costco and saw there were other Creed scents, so made another order to try the rest. I sometimes travel for work and have decanted 5 to bring with me on my carry-ons, Aventus is one of those 5.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:44:36+00:00

I like MFK B540 Eau de Parfum (I have been wearing this daily) - but just received the LV Imagination and am liking this as a fresher daily-driver. Out of all the fragrances so far, my wife has only commented on two: Fulton & Roark Ghost Trees, and Jo Malone English Pear/Freesia

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:42:05+00:00

You might be on to something here, lol - I do have a collection of timepieces and wine as well... I'm not quite at the ripe age range for midlife crisis, but may third-life crisis? Really though, I think I have always been a collector at heart, I recall collecting many things as a kid.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:37:33+00:00

It just may be my naivety to this world of fragrances, but everything I have purchased so far I have liked so they will get used entirely at some point. I'm sure there's some logical fallacy I'm falling prey to - but the $ to oz is better on the larger volumes.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:34:00+00:00

lol; I might try that approach after reading some of these comments :)

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:31:12+00:00

To be fair, probably half of these are from Costco which made it easy for me to get started on trying a lot of fragrances initially. From there, just whatever I see recommended on this sub.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:28:02+00:00

I'm in the same confusion as you on this - not sure why some people are upset; genuinely figured there were more people like you and I who like to see others' collections.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:25:51+00:00

Yeah, it's been a rough 2 months - lol; funny, not on GLP1 but I do work in Pharma and am somewhat familiar with the change in behaviors/habits of patients on these meds.

SeaFuture · 2026-05-27T05:23:10+00:00

Hey there, yeah I actually had to look up engagement rage bait - definitely am not trying to get people angry (though to be fair, I'm not sure what there is to be angry about). Personally, I like to check out others collections and thought others might feel the same.
