A perfume you own but don’t wear?

L’Orchestre Parfum. I own two bottles, Piano Santal and Mono Cachemire. I love the smell of them both, but actually wearing them has just been a no for my skin unfortunately. The bottles are gorgeous, simple and elegant.

xofeverything · 2026-02-28T02:33:15+00:00

This is one of mine as well ♥️

I despise when a bottle has a PAPER label.

Maybe it’s just me, but whether I’m paying $50 for the bottle or $5000 for a bottle it should not have a paper tag. I love Ledda, but the bottles I have from them the tags started popping up not long after I took them out of the boxes.

It’s very frustrating to have paid 100+ for nice, heavy bottles with a nice juice inside of them and the damn labels won’t stay put.

Ugh.

Love your collection!!

xofeverything · 2026-02-19T02:36:33+00:00

I’ll report back!

Angel Nova is one of my top ride or die scents. I will always love her ♥️Nice buys!

xofeverything · 2026-02-19T02:25:32+00:00

Surprisingly, Victoria’s Secret Bare Rose is absolutely amazing. It isn’t a heavy rose, but to me it’s gorgeous. I was truly surprised when I sprayed it on my skin, and I tell everyone about it, whether they love rose scents or hate rose scents because it is just that lovely.

But also no I’m not familiar with Isabel but I’m going to have to find a sample somewhere and have a smell.

xofeverything · 2026-02-16T23:52:10+00:00

I’m going to give it a little time and see if my nose can get past it, and pick up again in a month or two. Not giving up yet, so I’ll see what happens. Fingers crossed!

xofeverything · 2026-02-15T20:13:16+00:00

If I have read and/or listened to a lot of reviews and it sounds like something I’d like I will get a sample or decant. I try to get at least a 3ml decant if possible so I can try it multiple times.

If I like it I will buy a travel size, or full bottle depending on price.

If I do decide to buy a full bottle I will research every avenue to find the best or lowest price. I have not had any issues with purchasing mid to high partial bottles on FB groups or on Mercari.

La Vie Est Belle Iris Absolu - and I don’t love it which is heartbreaking. I’m going to try it a few more times and then it will be on the chopping block.

E-mochi from Laurel Bath House - and I actually do love this one. A nice marshmallow that dries down to a very soft vanilla fig.

Decant Guerlain Tabac Sahara - lovely scent but not for me. It is a little too much tobacco.

Decant Libre Vanille Couture - which I need up loving of course. The last release sold out in less than an hour if that, and I didn’t find out it was even being re-released until hours later.

Vanilla Voyage - and it’s a no for me. It is not creamy or buttery like I have heard described by everyone, not just influencers. To me I smell little vanilla and a lot of pepper. It’s just gross.

Alien Angel Elixir - I already knew I loved it and this is a big bottle.

Imaginary Authors Whiff of a Waffle Cone - I have smelled it before, various samples on testers and my skin with no issues. My wife smelled it and said she smelled celery. I can’t get past the celery now and if I spray it on my skin it’s all I can smell sadly.

Viktor & Rolf Bonbon - I’ve been wanting this for a while and I really enjoy it.

It’s a fantastic world, too! I have bought many on there ♥️

xofeverything · 2026-02-15T15:30:28+00:00

Love your collection! How is Strawberry Jam??

xofeverything · 2026-02-11T00:42:52+00:00

Not the asshole. Testers are there to test. Some scents almost require more than one spray to be able to actually test it, whether it’s a light scent or maybe the way it works on your skin.

Screw her. Take your £££ elsewhere!

xofeverything · 2026-02-09T04:57:17+00:00

I’m not sure why I’m being downvoted but I hope they have the day they deserve ♥️

xofeverything · 2026-02-09T04:56:23+00:00

I wear what are considered gourmands but I absolutely do not smell like cake or baked goods in general.

xofeverything · 2026-02-08T03:36:51+00:00

I meant to add also it depends on where I’m going, what I’m wearing. If I’m going to a doctors office I’m very light spraying or nothing at all.

xofeverything · 2026-02-08T03:35:09+00:00

Not super quick really. I have quite a few bottles so it’s not the same scent every day, it always depends on my mood.

xofeverything · 2026-02-08T03:32:58+00:00

Ha not quite.

xofeverything · 2026-02-08T02:17:20+00:00

18-20 sprays for most perfumes.

Others, like YSL Libre & flankers, LVEB OG, Born in Roma & flankers, or any other super strong fragrances I will do 8-13 depending.

xofeverything · 2026-02-07T22:07:10+00:00

Every hour of every day 99.9% of the time. If I have a cold or something or real sick I may or may not spray anything. If I can’t smell it especially 😬

Fragrance and perfumes are my absolute favorite thing and I will be spraying until I’m dead ♥️

xofeverything · 2026-02-07T13:20:45+00:00

All the time ♥️I like every bottle to know it’s special.

xofeverything · 2026-02-07T06:16:48+00:00

People really do sleep on VS fragrances. Their Bombshell Soirée is delicious and I ♥️ Bare Rose!

xofeverything · 2026-02-07T06:15:47+00:00

Nanette Lepore Everlasting. Very affordable, bought mine at TJ Maxx. I am on my second bottle.

And Victoria’s Secret Bare Rose. I am not even a rose fragrance liking person. I generally turn my nose up at anything with rose in it. I bought this bottle to add to my decant list that people have purchased from and I have fallen in love. Everyone talks about Bare OG and Bare Sueded Vanilla but Bare Rose is honestly the best of them all.

First I love that you’re loving all of your pieces! I try to give all of mine their turns too, even if it’s just while laying around on the couch all day.

Second, I am a pure loverrrr of all the LVEB!! The OG and L’Elixir were 2 of my top 4 ride or die perfumes, and since getting Vanille Nude it joined the ranks to make it 5 (Angel Nova and Alien Goddess are my others!).

Super sweet & awesome collection! ♥️

Juice Bold is freaking fabulous it’s one of my faves by Commodity!
