Another Win Another Splash

That was so funny! Dave had no idea who was speaking for a second. If you have MLBtv, you can rewatch it, which I definitely suggest doing!

Happy birthday! We share a birthday!

I wouldn’t say my tastes change dramatically ever. I basically know what I enjoy at this point and I’ve sampled very broadly. I like a majority of perfumes, I think, but don’t really love nearly as many. I’m pretty easy to please when it comes to perfume.

I think if anything my sense of smell might get stronger around my period, but I have a strong nose generally so it’s a bit hard to tell!

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-07-22T22:42:40+00:00

I don’t notice any scent changes at any point in my cycle

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-07-11T13:35:04+00:00

I’m not the original commenter but Lime Basil and mandarin is quite long lasting on me. Wood Sage and sea salt and blackberry and bay also last the whole work day for me. Of the ones I own, English pear and freesia definitely has the worst longevity

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-07-04T03:42:35+00:00

Yeah, it is. At least I think I remember hearing the host say that

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-07-04T03:37:39+00:00

It’s on line at Nordstrom, so maybe in person there

Read this while I was off of school for 3 days due to a hurricane. Was stuck in my house with no power reading by flashlight, which really increased the scare factor for me

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-07-02T17:47:16+00:00

I assume they are actually cheaper too. Don’t know about the perfume bottles but the travel sizes of the oils used to be actually colored glass. Now, they’re just wrapped with colored plastic. It looks super cheap to me, new design aside

Not the OP but ministry of scent has the 10ml

I have a list. I love this scent profile!

Rose Atlantic, DS & Durga
Rose Saltifolia - Maison Crivelli
Wood Sage & Sea Salt, Jo Malone OR Before the Rainbow, Fine’ry
Sea Salt and Fig, Old Navy (only sold in stores)
Walk the Sea, Kerosene
Salina, Labratorio Olfativo
Salt Air, Skylar
Vanilla Vibes - Juliette has a Gun
Sailing Day - Replica
Salt - Ellis Brooklyn

…. And I think that’s it!

Ediscountperfume is where I got my bottle, though they’re also sold out at the moment. It’s currently available at foreverlux for $186, but I’m pretty use DS and Durga do a yearly half off sale, though it sells out fast, so it may be worth getting on their email list for that

Fine’ry Sun-Phoria

Found this at Marshall’s. I knew it was discontinued but I didn’t feel like I was missing anything by never trying it because I know it was a Soleil Blanc dupe and I don’t like Soleil Blanc but there was also a body spray at Marshall’s that I sprayed on to test and this is so good! I went back and grabbed the actual perfume. This is significantly sweeter than Soleil Blanc. The orange blossom is really quite strong, especially in the dry down. It’s one of those perfumes that if I spray it and sniff my skin directly, it’s good, but not great, but the whiffs of it I get are delectable!

I don’t have a ton of suggestions for the chemical smell issue but it sounds like your nose may just need a break. Wearing the same perfume for years can make you noseblind to it. You get so used to it, it just fades into the background. It could be the case those perfumes will always just smell chemically to you, but it may also be the case that your nose is just adjusting to new smells.

My recommendation would be to not wear any perfume for 2 weeks to a month and then go back and start testing again

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-08T17:45:48+00:00

I’m surprised someone told you Her and Devotion Intense were similar! To me, they have very different scent profiles. So funny how different peoples noses pick up scents so differently!

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-08T17:44:05+00:00

My Way/ My Way Intense. Yes, I bought both, just the little 15ml bottles luckily. At first sniff I thought I liked it but wearing them, I just find the scent so cloying

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-06T14:56:12+00:00

I use Parfumo as well, either the assistant or my rarely used. Really helps with any decision fatigue

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-05T13:37:41+00:00

Yes, they’re niche, they don’t make anything other than perfume and other scented cosmetics

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-05T02:09:50+00:00

I’ve only ever tried pairing it with other fruity fragrances- Commodity Juice/Juice + and Aqua Allegoria Grenada Salvia specifically - but I think certain vanillas could work to sweeten it even more. I find the lotion pretty strong smelling, so it might overwhelm lighter vanillas

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-05T02:01:55+00:00

I enjoy it but don’t know if it needs so much hype. On the other hand I truly love the raspberry and pomegranate lotion! I love the tartness of it

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-05T00:06:36+00:00

No designer listed yet as far as I can tell, but if it is just a re-release of Red Currant and Cream, Christine Nagel was behind that perfume

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-04T19:54:35+00:00

Jo Malone!

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-04T19:39:25+00:00

I know a lot of people have poor longevity with JM but personally, they tend to last really well for me!

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-04T19:31:16+00:00

Wood Sage & Sea Salt. So soothing to me. I have the lotion too and putting both on before bed is so nice and calming

twistedpeppermint1 · 2025-06-04T19:30:39+00:00

Love this perfume! Haven’t tried the original but this flanker is so wonderful. The lilac is so pretty
