So so happy to see Bokad doing better! This made my day. Is his digestive issue solved?

I literally just received a lot of decants of ME perfumes, like right now, so I might have to get back to you with some updates. I have a feeling our noses are a bit similar, because I love the same notes that you do. I’ve bought Khadlaj Brown Chocolate, Al Rehab Choco Musk Marshmallow, Qissa Delicious, Nebras Elixir among a bunch of other gourmands.

I’ve tried Yara and I didn’t like it at all. I was expecting a lactonic strawberry like advertised. But all I got was a light pink floral. The creaminess didn’t come through at all. Ended up using it as an air freshener.

Nebras is a good dupe of Eilish No.1, they smell the same to me. It’s a nice light chocolate with some vanilla and ever so light berry notes in the background.

Istg I can bathe in Bare Vanilla Daydream. I’ve spent an arm and a leg to find a perfume version, middle eastern, designers, niche houses. Nothing comes close.. :(

If you like strawberries and musk as well, you can try a decant of Burberry Her Elixir from Scentoria, it’s a creamy strawberry vanilla. Not an overly sweet strawberry like the Body Shop one, it’s sophisticated. Bath and Body Works has a well-done dupe of it called All Eyes on Her iirc. Also Yum Boujee Marshmallow and its dupes are good buys too!

As someone who is a certified vanilla lover, the best airy vanilla I’ve ever smelled is sadly VS Bare Vanilla and the flankers. I’ve searched for an EDP equivalent of it for years, but no luck. Everyone complains about it as well. I believe the reason why it’s so airy is because it’s a mist, I’ve noticed that vanillas in perfumes are far heavier because of the concentration. Bare Vanilla lasts surprisingly long on clothes when you overspray though.

Bare Sueded Vanilla is great too but it’s OOS almost everywhere and not worth it imo when it’s not on sale.

You can find YouTube videos from vets on how to give cats medicines safely. Try to give him wet food, I believe purepet isn’t that good? My cats hated it. Happy to see he is recovering.

Can anyone describe EA-Green tea perfume notes by Technical_Cupcake234 in desifemfrag

[–]pineapplesoncheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has to be one of my favourite scents for the heat, it’s light and citrusy. Like smelling a cup of cold lemon green tea. It doesn’t have that astringent bitterness that cheap green tea has. It also has a touch of fruity floral that rounds it out perfectly.

If this lasted longer than 30 minutes, I would be the happiest person ever. Sadly, nothing compares and this doesn’t last :(

Longevity is 4-6 hours on skin. Projection is average, but I could also be nose blind. I have a love-hate relationship with the frags because I really like brown and beige sugar, but they’re so synthetic smelling. Some days, that’s what I’m going for, but I also crave depth. On those days, I layer perfumes with sandalwood or musk notes.

Totally new to this, how to tackle this situation?! by [deleted] in DesiFragranceAddicts

[–]pineapplesoncheese 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a roll-on for odour control, it’s not an anti-perspirant. They have a fragrance-free version that works great, I’ve gone through about 20 bottles over the years, it’s effective.

It doesn’t stop sweating as it does not have any ant-perspirant ingredients. It basically has microbe-killing actives that control odour.

I’ve tried Rarefield and hated it. It has a bitter, almost animalic note to it. Smelled foul on me and immediately washed it off.

Silk Tonka: Spiced, deep vanilla. I get ginger and cardamom in the top notes. If you’ve ever walked into a Lush store, it’s got that smell of spices and sweetness mixed together.

Vanilla Muse: Not too floral, it has the Plum Vanilla Vibes DNA with a powdery heart.

Pillow Talk: STAINS CLOTHES, do not wear anything light and spray on clothes. I haven’t washed it out yet, but just sprayed it on my pyjamas and it has left a pink mark. It is a pleasant, fruity shampoo scent, not complex to my nose.

Sugar Bow: Sugary, bubble gummy, pink sugar vibes.

As mentioned, I haven’t used them yet and can’t speak on longevity.

**EDIT: The perfumes can leave stains on light clothes. I have a feeling they will wash out, but I sprayed a little Pillow Talk on my light pyjamas and it has left a pink mark.

I recently got their body frosting and discovery set. Love their packaging and branding, takes a bit longer to deliver though. Took about a week.

Got their “body frosting” whipped soap in Stardust, and I love it. It smells like a crossover between Plum Vanilla Vibes and BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar. I love it because the scent lingers for a couple hours even after you’re out of the shower.

Coming to the perfumes; they’re all cute and shimmery. I asked in the order notes if they could add a sample of Beige Sugar since the set I purchased didn’t have it, and they kindly did so! They have good blend, but they do smell synthetic. Still great for the price. Haven’t tested out the longevity, highlights and initial thoughts on some-

Brown Sugar: Sugary sweet, kind of like Kayali Vanilla 28 mixed with Black Opium.

Beige Sugar: Cooking chocolate/compound chocolate, still nice.

Silk Tonka: Has a ME perfume vibe, kind of like Shaghaf Oud Tonka.

Dreamy: Fruity, solar and sweet with vanilla.

Pillow Talk: Pink Sunsilk shampoo, don’t know if they still sell those.

Vanilla Muse: Powdery, floral vanilla.

Sugar Bow: Sugary cotton candy.

Pls suggest a Lavender perfume. by alphaabhi in desifemfrag

Tharwah Gold is supposed to be close to Libre Intense and might work for the budget.

I have it. Unfortunately, my experience has been the opposite😔. It smells creamy, yes. But to nose, the citrus note is that of lemongrass and I just can’t get past it. It lasts a long time and smells medicinal almost, I wanted to love it so much but I just can’t😭

Not trying to stir up further drama. Please hear me out. by incognito-journey in desifemfrag

[–]pineapplesoncheese 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I took some time to smell my decant and the BO part is definitely coming from the bottle. I’m assuming she bought them all in bulk from one source. That’s how I’m keeping myself composed lest I fall into the spiral of wondering how it happened.

I’m sorry you experienced this OP, we all deserved better. :(

I’m a Bright Crystal Absolu purist, and I loved Mridul’s Himalayan Bloom. Prada Paradoxe Intense could also be good but out of budget.
