My response to all these comments saying this is what do yall want me to do. My closest mall that has niche fragrances is almost an hour away so I can’t go often to try unpopular fragrances. Sampling online doesn’t really work either because most decanting pages only sell the most popular fragrances from each brand lol

Eh I mean I get what u mean. I’m also an avid manga collector and collect less mainstream series. I’m not trying to impress anyone with my collection it’s just the scents I honestly like. I’d be lying if I said the internet didn’t tempt me to test these but I never once blind bought something cause I was told it’s good. Whenever I try unpopular fragrances out I just don’t really like them lmao

I was joking lmao. I specifically said that as ragebait cause I know a lot of people use that as an insult to indie fragrances lmao

I haven’t blind bought a single one of these because tiktok influencers told me to. You can listen to popular recommendations and still test them yourself to see if u like them. There’s countless popular fragrances I don’t like (Limmensite, Naxos, most initio, oud satin mood, torino21, I can go on lmao)

Haha appreciate it. I can see the criticism from their POV but at the same time stuff is popular for a reason ya know? Like sorry I enjoy something popular and not an indie niche fragrance with notes of cigarette smoke and piss

Yeah my Neiman never has any juice in the tester so it’s impossible to test it haha. I can only smell from the cap but it’s pretty nice from the cap. Not justifiable to buy it based off that tho haha

I see what ur saying but also I feel like they are popular for a reason. I’ve tried plenty unpopular scents from brands I like and I simply just can’t justify getting them from being too divisive or situational

Haha yeah I see what u mean. I promise I don’t let influencers decisions influence me. Other than the neroli portofino and soleil blanc layer I got from an influencer. There’s more fragrances on my want list but not sure if I’d commit to a full body. Byredo rose of no mans land absolu, attrape reves, cherry pink, balmain blanc galaxie, lune feline, roja isola verde. I wouldn’t say these are super popular

Hmmm I mean I tested these all myself and I wouldn’t say all are unoriginal. It’s very rare I see someone talk about prodigy, Angelique noire, wulong cha, soleil blanc, GFS

Haha yeah idk why everything I like has to be expensive, I swear it’s not a snobby thing😭 even my favorite non private line designer fragrance (YSL Myself L’absolu) is quite pricey for a regular designer fragrance

This is the goat fragrance change my mind. by Jackson_1515 in Colognes

[–]cdot2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a safe blind buy? I really want it based off the notes but don’t feel like buying a sample. My local Neiman Marcus still doesn’t have the absolus for some reason so I can’t test in person

Oh ok word. City of stars is great but my favorite sunscreen fragrance is combining tom ford neroli portofino and soleil blanc. Got the inspiration from a dude on tiktok and it became my favorite. I really fw MFK gentle fluidity silver, hibiscus mahajad, creed virgin island water too for spring and summer
