perfume

perfumes are a semi-new interest of mine! i mostly just research on fragrantica and parfumo (i luvvv parfumo) but i do have a collection that im always looking to expand! usually i love scents that are gourmand, sweet, fruity, spicy, or floral (to an extent). i love jasmine! i hate patchouli but im ocasionally willing to excuse it if its not strong. im not super into woodsy, oriental, smoky, or excessively floral scents. i dont like most tom ford, diptyque, or dior fragrances. im a big fan of guerlain and the mugler alien line. in general i spend way too much money on perfume lol

my favs

angel's share by kilian

probably like one of my favorite gourmands EVER!!! it literally smells like an apple pie. its so fall. its like a little bit more of a woody scent than i normally go for but it smells too good to not love. kilian has amazing branding also -- angel's share is from the liquors collection (hence the insanely beautiful bottle) and its named after the spirits in the barrel that evaporate when the alcohol ages! because it like goes into the air for the angels or whatever idk i think its a cool fun fact for a wonderful perfume

alien goddess intense by mugler

ive always heard that mugler scents can be controversial in that you either love them or you hate them. personally im an angel (one of their other lines) hater and an alien LOVER. i lowk copped alien goddess intense off a shady fragrance website that sold it to me for half the price sooo i guess i dont actually know if i have the real one 😭 BUT i can at least testify that mine smells fantastic esp as a jasmine lover! i feel like its super versatile as well - ive always thought it leans spring/summer but it could really be anything tbh

very good girl elixir by carolina herrera

ok i know some people think these bottles are tacky.. but i feel like theyre kinda cunt..... idk... anyways i have this one as a 10ml sample that i got for free!!! i love me a good cherry scent and i feel like the cherry lasts for a long time in this one even though its just a top note. at least on me its probably one of the stronger perfumes that i own - might start to veer into heavy territory. i dont wear it often because its definitely more of a night out kinda perfume but i feel like its a v noticeable fragrance. one lady stopped me once when i was on vacay and told me she loved my perfume! i was super happy!!!
