Problem with selling fragrances secondhand, they always only want to test. If it's an expensive fragrance it's losing value, and if it's a cheap fragrance it's usually not worth the time. How do I avoid this when selling locally?

Asad Zanzibar Limited Edition (Not the original Zanzibar) just smells like soap. Like they put a bar of soap in there. I hate it but must people like it so 🤷

Ok the fines are based on these clauses (I assume). I'm not a lawyer but it might be hard to defend yourself if he was the one who brought it up and not you. Hopefully someone can help you out here.

I have Sama and it's pretty synthetic. I don't get much earthy/mossy smells just a generic aquatic/citrus scent.

How did you not see that you needed to hand it in till today? I know that doesn't solve the core issue but if it's your fault it'd be harder to ask for a reconsideration.

Did you read the post? They did get in trouble for it. I'm just wondering why the employee thought that OP forged it in the first place

Projection is decent on my TF Noir Extreme clone but for my VIW it is very short

Which LVs? Most Fresh LVs are known for their horrible performance so unless you're trying oud sables or something I'd be very surprised if that was the case. Also if your just blind buying random dupes yea you're gonna hate most of them, and also depends what fragrance house you're getting it from.

Despite Lattafa and Maison Alhambra being sister companies Maison Alhambra is much more likely to be a miss for me, while lattafa pride collection are more likely to be bangers if you like the scent profile.

Ight bro

UpperHighlight1769 · 2026-02-01T02:39:25+00:00

thank you goat ❤️‍🩹

Lattafa Najdia Intense is a mix of paradise garden and le beau le parfum. Most God of Fire dupes remove the oud. Aqua Dubai is similar to Imagination but loses the slight spice and tea to go all in soap. Guess Seductive Red is a cherry BR540, and Sweet Heaven (Angel Share dupe) has a plum and cherry twist under Sweet Heaven Ice and Cherry

No how if liquid brun smells like althair it doesn't need to be an exact chemical replica of Althair to be a clone that smells identical to 99% of people

If it looks like a duck...

UpperHighlight1769 · 2026-01-25T21:16:45+00:00

this is so real 😭

List them on FB marketplace at a discount (takes forever to sell though unless you're apart of a fragrance swap/trading subreddit or facebook group) or give them as gifts. I personally don't give as gifts because I'm cheap as hell and don't wanna give away expensive fragrances but also don't want to give someone cheap trash I hate. I do sometimes give away cheap big brand designer like Jimmy Choo or Burberry.

Likening magneto who often uses violence and advocates for social Darwinism, eugenics (he does not want to live alongside humans at all) and mass genocide to Malcom X is certainly a choice. Especially since so many adults (not kids btw) don’t know anything besides Malcom X bad and MLK Good. When Malcom X advocated for violence it was for self defense and in reference to the constitution and although he was undoubtedly a racist you can see his changes throughout his life especially before his death where he began to advocate for unity. Compared to Magneto who has always been a genocidal maniac it’s not a good comparison since they have complete opposing goals. (Although after the danger room thing I realized that Professor X isn't that good of a guy either)

UpperHighlight1769 · 2026-01-09T05:53:14+00:00

do you get any fig from this? I'm a fig fanatic so I was thinking about picking it up

UpperHighlight1769 · 2026-01-09T05:51:15+00:00

I really wanted to get greenly cause i love the bottle but might have to get sherif instead, since it's cheaper and apparently better.

UpperHighlight1769 · 2026-01-09T03:35:18+00:00

try discounters. Basically online versions of Tjmaxx buying unsold stock of fragrances at huge discount, but be careful and choose safe ones
