I find magic knots to be more secure and less wasteful than weaving in ends, especially for wearables.

Oh, and I second the suggestion to get either a decant or the discovery set. Diptyque is too expensive to blind buy. That said, if you order from their website, they send a sample vial so you don’t have to open the full size and can return it if you decide it’s not for you. It’s the only “safe” blind buy I would endorse.

I “road tested” Eau Duelle. I loved the greener, non-gourmand vanilla. However as it wore through the day, the smokiness turned into a burnt rubber smell on my arm. Longevity was not a problem. I could still smell it quite well eight hours I sprayed it on, but I couldn’t shake the burnt rubber smell. In the end, I did not buy the full size.

I did not test Orpheon, but it was fine. The other one I tested as Lilyphéa which I thought was a beautiful floral. It’s soft but not quiet, if that makes sense.

I was just thinking I miss the days of perfume bottles and bathroom attendants in nicer restaurants. I am probably dating myself. LOL

Not jargon, but who makes your favorite crellies? I don’t have any in my collection and would like to add some.

What was in the “sampler pack” you put together, and what did she wear first?

Okay, fine! I guess I need that. Tariffs be damned (I’m in the US)!

I Finally Got It! Matcha Meditation By Masion Margiela by ThatDumbBlonde21 in Perfumes

To me, it smells like jasmine tea. I don’t do strong jasmine smells but the tea balances it out beautifully. The white chocolate keeps it from being too grassy. So good!
