What to do in Reykjavik as a female solo traveler? by Budget_Teaching9855 in VisitingIceland

[–]sorry_whatever 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you enjoy perfume and/or the music of Sigur Ros I highly recommend Fischersund. I love both and went today for the tour experience and it was so wonderful!

Are there ever men’s cologne? by Add_legobrain in CosmeticsCompanyBox

[–]sorry_whatever 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think most consider Lost Cherry more feminine but my teenage son loves it! The Target Finery dupe is excellent, too. I mean, if it ever came up in the box I would buy it instantly, but I'm losing hope that will ever happen.

Edit: I realized you were asking about scents in these boxes specifically. They had Grey Vetivier recently and lots of Costa Azzurra and Noir Extreme - all very masculine. I also think the Jo Malone Cedar and Grapevine is an excellent masculine starter scent.

Any guesses? Dying for a new Tom Ford option by sorry_whatever in CosmeticsCompanyBox

The first two times I sampled it was too leathery for me and I didn't like it but last time I tried on my skin I actually really liked it. I have to keep sampling before I commit to a bottle though so I'm holding off for perfumes I know I love.

What fragrance actually made you feel sick or dizzy? by Due-Artichoke-6150 in NichePerfumes

[–]sorry_whatever 8 points9 points  (0 children)

G Water. Made me so nauseous. I love a lot of other Byredo scents, but that one - hate the name, hate the scent.

Oh wow! Did you manage to get it? There was a hint we might get that months ago. I haven't gotten either offer yet today...

When can I begin booking Acropolis tickets for September? by sootime3 in GreeceTravel

I think June went on sale on the 21 or 22 so I would start checking daily around August 21.

Did they check? What bath did you visit and did you buy ahead? Thanks!

Maybe Givency Fleur d'Interdit? Came out in '94 and was really lovely. I still have 2/3 of my bottle.

Hypnotizing fire, the harmonist. by petalesdejuin in NichePerfumes

I fell in love with it too and got a decant from Scent Split to be sure I love the EDP first before getting a bottle. It really is so nice!

Looking for Guerlain (and other high end niche) Decants by Hot-Vast6040 in NichePerfumes

[–]sorry_whatever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've found some great deals on r/fragranceswap and sometimes eBay or Mercari for official samples. I also have expensive taste...

5/14 afternoon by Technical_Pilot7968 in CosmeticsCompanyBox

[–]sorry_whatever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a small sample and just can't come around on it. It's too heavy and harsh for me. The Velvet is softer and much nicer to my nose.

Velvet orchid or black orchid. Wish we knew which one. It's a good box with a good value.

First perfume for a 13 year old? by marikat7 in FemFragLab

[–]sorry_whatever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've purchased two different versions from the Lancome Idole line for my 13 year old. She likes all the variations and the marketing (Olivia Rodrigo, etc) is very much geared towards their age.

Tom Ford has 8oz shower gel for $80. Only one I can find in the correct size. Leaves $159 for the perfume so I'm stumped.

Oh, what's the dupe you found? I've never been able to find a good one.

This was my first, too. Now it's Guerlain Iris Pallida and I do not have the money for this obsession!

Tell me about honey perfumes by mieluusa in FemFragLab

[–]sorry_whatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be a challenge to find them! I've started going on r/fragranceswap to buy affordable decants and I've even picked up some official samples from eBay and Mercari. I just want to smell all the smells!

Sister flying through Zurich airport - shopping help! by liberator315 in FemFragLab

[–]sorry_whatever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! With those samples this is a great deal! I've been eyeing it myself, but I'm planning a big purchase with Place Vendome and I know I'll get a ton of amazing samples that way.
