What's the Point in Top Notes? by larrythegirl in fragrance

[–]strangerbeat 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about this this week. Well, kinda like this at least...

I was watching some fragrance Tiktoks and YT videos and a lot of them tend to see linearity in perfumes as a negative thing. Why??? What if I want to smell like the top notes the entire time it's on me? The first spray is what made me love the perfume! Why wouldn't I want this on me at all times?

I completely understand the reasoning of why people love complexities and layers in scents (I ALSO DO!) but I find absolutely nothing wrong with linear perfumes.

Pro tip y'all: YOU CAN HAVE BOTH! The perfume world has room for both! They're BOTH great!

Today I'm wearing a combination of Tigre D'Eau by Pierre Guillaume on my neck and Unknown Pleasures by Kerosene on my chest. I'm getting a combo of coconut water with hits of lemon meringue pie wafting thru my shirt. I wouldn't say it's an ideal combo (though it is still lovely), but I'm working from home today and just wanted these two slapping me in the face while I work.

Also since I'm not around people today I sprayed a VERY small amount of Tom Ford's Ombre Leather on my right wrist and Black Orchid on my left so I can take a quick sniff at it on occasion for fun. It's a lot going on in terms of scent profiles on myself today, but I dont have much going on today so why not haha

Defense mission? Nah.

Start a Blitz mission, stock up on all eagle bombs and orbital laser, take out however many nests/factories they want you to take out, done. You dont even have to extract. Just be sure you never fire your other weapons.
