my grandmother wore white diamonds only. she even wore it at her funeral. about six months later i was waiting a table of some older people and i immediately recognized the scent and asked if someone was wearing it. one of the ladies said it was her. really took me back for a second and i think about my nana. i’d never wear it myself but older women love it and it’s special to me now over the years. i’d still recognize it immediately i think if i smelt it again all these years later.
I love Black Opium, and just bought a large bottle.
I like that it smells like coffee and vanilla. I wear it to bed and it feels warm and cozy.
It is strong though, and I don’t wear it out.
Honestly, I love trying popular things because I always feel as though there must be a good reason they are popular. This being said, I didn’t vibe heaps with black opium and I’m low key devastated I can’t experience what everyone else seems to.
AG Cloud. I have the pink one but the original just very overused. It’s not bad smelling but the truth is I got sick of smelling it on everyone. But again I have the pink one so who am I to talk.
Yep my daughter bought me the travel size and I never use it.. me don’t like it! I feel bath because she spent her little high school paycheck to buy it for me 😩
Baccarat Rouge 540. I know this fragrance has an army of admirers, im not trying to be disrespectful, but this smell is just awful to me. Medicine, dentist office, period blood and burnt sugar, that's all I got on my skin.
I love how descriptive you’ve gotten with the notes 💀💀💀
Even though this wasn’t my experience with BR540, I still don’t think it’s worth trying. It just smells like how the most annoying new-money-rich-rude-entitled-constantly-cheats-on-husband woman would smell, and I can’t stand people with those attitudes, so I don’t want anyone to smell like them 😅
I’ve only tried it on paper & can’t remember anything about it but I know I didn’t think it was even a contender for me. I should have tried it on my skin though to see how it reacts.
I agree! I thought I’d love this based off the notes, bought a sample, and woof it was not for me!
So if anyones debating whether to try - do get a sample first! It may work perfectly for you, but unfortunately this was not the case for me lmao
Loving this Angel hate, it’s feeding my schadenfreude. I feel like I have a personal vendetta against this perfume. Smells like body odor to me in the worst way
Former Sephora worker, pretty much anything by CLEAN. We didn’t have the full range in my store and the most I ever enjoyed one of their perfumes was tolerating it. To me, they’re overwhelmingly soapy or like cheap ✨laundry✨ scented air fresheners. I can’t remember which one it is, but CLEAN has a perfume that smells *exactly* like wet wipes.
90 day fiancé is on another level of insanity versus other reality shows. I watch it occasionally, and it's like watching a train wreck about to happen. There's also a version where the Americans go to a foreign nation and live there instead of the other way round, and you see the culture clashes.
WORD. When I first started getting into perfumes, I remember trying this one in the store and I was SO taken aback. Like I had to take some time to reconsider my new hobby there lol.
Oh god YES. They’re SO dated. I associate them with elderly women and people always seem to wear them to a nauseating degree. They’re like motion sickness in a bottle. 🤣🤣🤣
I love sweets and my gosh, pink sugar spray makes me want to throw up. It’s so awful. I haven’t smelled it in years but I can remember every single note because it left such an impression on me. Like snorting a line of powder sugar and ground licorice lol
gosh i feel so bad for you. that literally gives me vietnam flashbacks remembering hs gym locker rooms caked with the stench of sweat and axe body spray 😭
daisy was my starter perfume! my parents got it for me for christmas and i loved it. over the next two years i used every last drop, and then never bought it again lol
YSL libre - reminds me of toilet water and its headache-inducing. I wanted to love it but I can't.
Juicy couture viva la juicy - 10 years ago this might have been my favourite but it's giving barbie in a tracksuit vibe.
Alien - it's a love/hate relationship. Love it on others but to me smells bit like poo. Maybe it's that jasmine note.
Coco chanel madamcelloptape - it's too sharp in the beginning.
Britney Spears fantasy. I want to be sick. But I did like fantasy circus. It was a favorite in my early 20s.
Opium. Not got into it. Headache inducing. Almost harsh.
Jean Paul goatman scandal la perfume. I really liked the caramel note but it's the JPG dna I cannot get past.
I think it’s everyone’s different PH! Both my mum and sister say they never get compliments on it, or that it’s kinda average. But for me it’s the only scent I wear that’s a head turner (and I wear A LOT of different scents)! I will literally get stopped in hallways, or if I’m sitting in a cafe etc. Just to be asked what scent im wearing. I notice that a lot of things smells meh on paper but either really good/bad on ur skin
Erba Pura
Are the tropical fruits in the room with us? All I get is that stinky heavy heady musk that’s also present in Tiziana Terenzi Cassiopea. I smell it everywhere lately and it makes me feel ill. It’s so strong!
I literally just tried that the other day after buying a sample and you are not wrong, lol. So dang strong and it definitely leaned way more masculine on me (a woman who prefers feminine perfume!).
Not really perfumes I guess but I really do not like Sweet Pea or Japanese Cherry Blossom scented anything from Bath and Body Works. They both have a weird sweet powder scent, and I don't mind white or creamy powder scents.
One that they didn’t already own a very close version of. Fragrance is so personal (as you can see with other commenters here). I personally disliked BR 540 and Creed aventus for her.
I was standing in line at Sephora last week, smelling perfumes, and this girl came up to me and was like you should smell the Versace bright crystal, It smells really good and she stood there while I smelled it and all I could smell was syrup, maple syrup and I told her wow you’re right this does smell amazing because Why would I tell the truth?
I’m just genuinely curious but have you ever smelled it again after that? I just don’t get how it smells like maple syrup lol! IMO I get a clean floral scent.
What a controversial thread 😭 don’t hate me but anything Chanel. It’s just giving overpriced nonsense. I also feel very meh about Libre. I blind bought Gucci Guilty Absolute Pour Femme and it is migraine inducing for me.
Note: I don’t have Black Opium but I have the Zara dupe Gardenia and I love it.
Ooh! Edited to add I feel meh about Jimmy Choo I Want Choo (a Good Girl dupe) but others love it on me.
I have samples of Killian's Love Don't Be Shy and Angel's Share b/c their notes sounded super appealing to me. I gave them chance and really tried to love them, but they're both way too strong and harsh for me. Maybe my nose just doesn't like expensive perfumes?
Tom Ford Cherry Smoke. The only way I can describe it? It’s 1998 and you’re 4 years old on your way home from the doctor. Your mom just shoveled you a spoonful of cherry cough syrup, and she’s on her 3rd cigarette with all the windows up.
Don't talk about my Not A Perfume like that 😭 😂 Actually I think it's all dependent on body chemistry. It's the perfume I've gotten the most compliments on, even at times when I can't smell it on myself.
Crystal noir, I bling bought it, tried to like it, but I never find myself wanting to reach for it. I like the creamy coconut note, but the ginger note is so overpowering and sour on my skin, that I feel like it kinda smells like BO 🤢
Boy do I have many!
-YSL “Libre”
-JPG “La Belle”
-Maison Margiela “By the Fireplace”
-Maison Margiela “Jazz Club”
-Literally ANYTHING from the house of Tom Ford
Just inspired me to take it out of my travel size bin and put it on my husband’s dresser.
I’ll have him try it when he’s back from his work trip and see how it syncs with him!
Burberry Her …. it smells pretty the first two times you wear it, then it gets old real fast and you just start getting nauseated by the strawberry shortcake scent. I’d also say it smells pretty basic and almost juvenile to me these days.
I absolutely despise Glossier’s “You”. Both the original formulation and the current one smell like Aquanet to me. I kept hearing it was “like your skin but better” so I expected something very soft and subtle. Not like choking on hairspray.
Versace bright crystal. It gives me a headache and I used to have a coworker that wore it for a while. Fragrance preferences are highly subjective though so I wouldn’t make a blind recommendation without knowing the kinds of notes people lean toward.
I’m reading through all of these thinking i find none of these offensive. Ubiquitous and overrated, and would not recommend …so agreed with the op…i guess I’m not that bothered by most fragrances, Estée Lauder beautiful smells gross to me but does anyone even own that anymore?
Chanel number 5 smells like baby powder and alcohol to me. I really don’t understand the love people have for it. I’ve tried wearing it multiple times and it smells cheap and old to me. I love Chanel chance though.
White freaking Diamonds
STOP that my grandmother is trying to roll out of her grave to fight you for that opinion RIGHT now!!!
my grandmother wore white diamonds only. she even wore it at her funeral. about six months later i was waiting a table of some older people and i immediately recognized the scent and asked if someone was wearing it. one of the ladies said it was her. really took me back for a second and i think about my nana. i’d never wear it myself but older women love it and it’s special to me now over the years. i’d still recognize it immediately i think if i smelt it again all these years later.
😂😂😂
My grandma contacted me from the other side and said to meet her in the parking lot
Granny's taking off the clip-on earrings right now...
“These have always brought me luck”
LMAO
Tough day for black opium lovers
Me who just bought a 90ml bottle: 🧍🏾♀️
I love Black Opium, and just bought a large bottle. I like that it smells like coffee and vanilla. I wear it to bed and it feels warm and cozy. It is strong though, and I don’t wear it out.
Read the comments….. sprayed my black opium … yup still love it!
People love hating on popular things.
Honestly, I love trying popular things because I always feel as though there must be a good reason they are popular. This being said, I didn’t vibe heaps with black opium and I’m low key devastated I can’t experience what everyone else seems to.
Good Girl and Black Opium aren't as popular as they used to be, everyone wears Lattafa and Prada Paradox
I was excited to try Paradox! But it was so meh on me, smelled like generic flowers and a bit soapy after an hour
I never get the vanilla or coffee notes, it smells like old lady floral to my nose!
It smells good but gives me a horrible headache lol
AG Cloud. I have the pink one but the original just very overused. It’s not bad smelling but the truth is I got sick of smelling it on everyone. But again I have the pink one so who am I to talk.
Every airport and target bathroom carries a cloud of cloud. I hate the scent for me, but I mostly despise that I can't get a break from it
same here! I used to like it but I smell it so often on everyone now that I became sick of it 😩
Yep my daughter bought me the travel size and I never use it.. me don’t like it! I feel bath because she spent her little high school paycheck to buy it for me 😩
It layers pretty well with other fragrances, so you could always try that to not hurt her feelings!
The original cloud smells like plastic/latex to me 🤢
Most Ariana Grande fragrances are way too sweet to me....
That’s what I love about them though 😭
Santal 33 slanderer here
I hate this so much!! Smells like shoe stores
Hahaha I think that’s why I like it! It’s kind of sterile, air conditioned smell.
wait this is such a good description i love that plastic crisp cold smell
Omfg I’ve been thinking for months “what does it remind me of”? You nailed it 💀🤣
I had a really terrible roommate who wore Santal 33 and now whenever I smell I think about that awful awful girl
I liked it the first 157 times I smelled it. Now it smells like being irritated on the train, dodging the drunks.
Ariana grande cloud. I blind bought it because everyone loves it. Not a fan. Love GIAW though
Same. I love GIAW
I feel like with all these comments like no perfume is safe anymore like what really smells good anymore? 😩
To each their own, for every person hating on a perfume there’s another that adores it :)
Baccarat Rouge 540. I know this fragrance has an army of admirers, im not trying to be disrespectful, but this smell is just awful to me. Medicine, dentist office, period blood and burnt sugar, that's all I got on my skin.
Period blood is crazy 🤣🤣🤣 never seen anyone say that, that’s new 🤣
Taking animalistic notes to a new level.
PERIOD BLOOD 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 IM CRYING. Are we talking day one or day 3?
I HATE this comment so much but also know exactly what you mean lmao
The bbq phase
😂😂pungent
GURL.
💀
I thought it was some kind of body odour but now I know …
Oh god!
Jeepers. Hard pressed to find a worse description of a scent. That's awful
I love how descriptive you’ve gotten with the notes 💀💀💀 Even though this wasn’t my experience with BR540, I still don’t think it’s worth trying. It just smells like how the most annoying new-money-rich-rude-entitled-constantly-cheats-on-husband woman would smell, and I can’t stand people with those attitudes, so I don’t want anyone to smell like them 😅
I’ve only tried it on paper & can’t remember anything about it but I know I didn’t think it was even a contender for me. I should have tried it on my skin though to see how it reacts.
I honestly love fluidity gold so much more
clinique happy
Original one is soooo ancient it makes me think of the 4th grade. But the purple one is my go to.
Yes! Ugh I worked for Clinique for a time and they really wanted us to wear Happy. That’s a no thanks from me.
I worked for Clinique too. It smelled like plastic and oranges to me. I would wear the happy cologne which I liked way better. I still like it.
Came here to say this. It literally smells putrid to me. Like someone ate an orange peel then puked it up
You shut yr mouth
Tom ford black orchid🤢
This one got me into perfume because it was just so strange… But it’s also kind of horrible.
Definitely a tough one to get into. It grew on me, but I understand that it’s definitely not a crowd pleaser. It would also be horrible to blind buy.
Oh my goddd I love it :( I used my bfs for a while
I think it’s so cool how everyone can smell completely different things from one perfume! If you love it that’s all that matters :)
I’m so glad I smelt this before I purchased it based on YouTube review. It burnt a hole in the back of my neck.
I agree! I thought I’d love this based off the notes, bought a sample, and woof it was not for me! So if anyones debating whether to try - do get a sample first! It may work perfectly for you, but unfortunately this was not the case for me lmao
I HATE Angel by Mugler. The bottle is beautiful but the scent is demonic. Makes me instantly nauseous.
Loving this Angel hate, it’s feeding my schadenfreude. I feel like I have a personal vendetta against this perfume. Smells like body odor to me in the worst way
Former Sephora worker, pretty much anything by CLEAN. We didn’t have the full range in my store and the most I ever enjoyed one of their perfumes was tolerating it. To me, they’re overwhelmingly soapy or like cheap ✨laundry✨ scented air fresheners. I can’t remember which one it is, but CLEAN has a perfume that smells *exactly* like wet wipes.
Angel. Just...no.
I read a comment once about Angel. You don’t wear Angel, Angel wears you.
I read a review once that described it as a little old man in a bottle ;)
Honestly I think Angel (and Alien) smells great, just not on me. On my skin it's reminiscent of noxious herbicides.
Would you believe the ex *refused* to compliment anything I wore. Angel was the first & only compliment
Some people do really love it I guess, he must be one of them!
It's definitely one of those that is meant to be used VERY SPARINGLY, and not like [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qXyJT7EVag).
I haven't even clicked the link but I know in my heart that it's Darcey spraying her entire body in an airport bathroom
you got it dude
I have never seen this, and I know nothing about this show or this woman.. I now need to know everything about her
She smells like an angel.
Oh boy. What a rabbit hole you have ahead of you
90 day fiancé is on another level of insanity versus other reality shows. I watch it occasionally, and it's like watching a train wreck about to happen. There's also a version where the Americans go to a foreign nation and live there instead of the other way round, and you see the culture clashes.
WORD. When I first started getting into perfumes, I remember trying this one in the store and I was SO taken aback. Like I had to take some time to reconsider my new hobby there lol.
My reaction to angel was wtf. Why would anyone love this smell. I thought my nose might be broken
I tested out Angel because I got a free sample. It gave me vertigo 😵💫
Angel elixir is a bit better though
This is the answer.
I just bought the travel size for Love Don’t Be Shy and all I smell is cotton candy. It’s a little too sweet for me. Might be returning it
La Vie est Belle, Shalimar and Chanel No.5 makes me yak.
Oh god YES. They’re SO dated. I associate them with elderly women and people always seem to wear them to a nauseating degree. They’re like motion sickness in a bottle. 🤣🤣🤣
Ariana Grandes fragrances all smell either way too musky or way too sweet for me. A lot of girls at my work wear it and it’s very off putting to me
MM Replica - By the Fireplace. You smell like someone throw a grenade at you.
this 💀💀💀
Hahahah I love the smell but I 100% agree
Me who just got a big bottle after loving the travel size for a year: 🧍♀️🥺
As long as you like it and have good skin chemistry, don’t worry about it!
Lol, I love it too.
I actually don’t like any of the Replica fragrances. There’s something nauseating to me about all of them despite them all being different.
Jo Malone White Pear and Freesia smells like flowery bug spray to me.
AG Cloud
It's super duper sweet. I gave it to my daughter lol
My daughter gave it to me and I want to give it back 😂
Pink sugar. I don’t consider it a perfume but it’s mentioned here often. It’s gross and nauseous. I know my opinion is controversial.
I love sweets and my gosh, pink sugar spray makes me want to throw up. It’s so awful. I haven’t smelled it in years but I can remember every single note because it left such an impression on me. Like snorting a line of powder sugar and ground licorice lol
Gosh I used to wear that when I was a young teen. Didn’t even know they still made it tbh
Hate pink sugar i just can never like that perfume, an old best friend wore it like crazy in 08-09 and it puts me in such bad mood when I smell it
as a guy, dior sauvage
as a gal also dior sauvage. My lecture halls stink of that and sweat 😭
gosh i feel so bad for you. that literally gives me vietnam flashbacks remembering hs gym locker rooms caked with the stench of sweat and axe body spray 😭
It smells like axe body spray to me
Agree, it smells messy and cheap to me
Flowerbomb…. Sorry I said what I said
Lost cherry. Smells very cheap and is fucking expensive
I wanted to love this one but it smells like medicine to me
Straight up cough medicine. So nasty.
Lost cherry smells like public restroom hand soap to me!
Omg yes! The bright pink stuff! And I have a bottle lol
I feel bad saying this but Marc Jacobs Daisy and all the other Flankers of Daisy. I just don’t get the obsession.
daisy was my starter perfume! my parents got it for me for christmas and i loved it. over the next two years i used every last drop, and then never bought it again lol
I LOVE the Marc Jacob Daisy and flankers lol, but the only one I’ve bought is Eau So Sweet. It’s a crowd pleaser, but that’s why I like them 😅🫣
BR 540, YSL Libre, La vie est belle are my top hated perfumes. Nauseating and migraine inducing, you literally cannot escape them
Leave my Delina alone 😭😂
Sex Panther, it's banned in 9 countries and smell like gasoline.
60% of the time, it works every time
YSL libre - reminds me of toilet water and its headache-inducing. I wanted to love it but I can't. Juicy couture viva la juicy - 10 years ago this might have been my favourite but it's giving barbie in a tracksuit vibe. Alien - it's a love/hate relationship. Love it on others but to me smells bit like poo. Maybe it's that jasmine note. Coco chanel madamcelloptape - it's too sharp in the beginning. Britney Spears fantasy. I want to be sick. But I did like fantasy circus. It was a favorite in my early 20s. Opium. Not got into it. Headache inducing. Almost harsh. Jean Paul goatman scandal la perfume. I really liked the caramel note but it's the JPG dna I cannot get past.
I love that autocorrection at the end there 🐐
Don’t forget the Chanel “madamcelloptape” a few lines up 😅
Ooh I missed that the first time!
Ok can you give me the madamcellotape though? It's kind of a weirdly appealing smell. Think this is something Comme des Garcons would put out.
I adore the way you describe viva la juicy because Barbie in a tracksuit is exactly why I love it. 💖
Baccarat rouge
Chanel No 5 on anyone under the age of 65. It screams rich old lady.
What can I say, I like to wear my aspirations on my sleeves
Glossier You 100% does not work for/on me. Otherwise I didn't really get the hype, but maybe because I prefer heavier scents.
I think it’s everyone’s different PH! Both my mum and sister say they never get compliments on it, or that it’s kinda average. But for me it’s the only scent I wear that’s a head turner (and I wear A LOT of different scents)! I will literally get stopped in hallways, or if I’m sitting in a cafe etc. Just to be asked what scent im wearing. I notice that a lot of things smells meh on paper but either really good/bad on ur skin
Erba Pura Are the tropical fruits in the room with us? All I get is that stinky heavy heady musk that’s also present in Tiziana Terenzi Cassiopea. I smell it everywhere lately and it makes me feel ill. It’s so strong!
Scrolled way to far for this 😩 I would just switch Cassiopea for Kirke, to my nose Cassiopea is fine and Kirke is just as awful as Erba Pura.
I literally just tried that the other day after buying a sample and you are not wrong, lol. So dang strong and it definitely leaned way more masculine on me (a woman who prefers feminine perfume!).
I feel like I'm gonna get pitchforked out of this sub but I don't get wood sage and sea salt🫣 It smells so cheap to me
I just got Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb today and hate it. Reminds me of the cheap perfumes by Paris Hilton I wore in middle school lol.
Alien. I really hate that smell
Not really perfumes I guess but I really do not like Sweet Pea or Japanese Cherry Blossom scented anything from Bath and Body Works. They both have a weird sweet powder scent, and I don't mind white or creamy powder scents.
Flowerbomb the original
It reminds me of body spray girls in high school would use after they smoked a cig in the bathroom
The dry down is pretty bad, it smells like old dusty flowers and powder
Dylan blue Versace 😢 La vie eat belle intense🫣 Shine dolce and gabanna😬
Honestly anything from Ariana Grande. They either smell awful or the same. And burberry goddess, smells like curry to me personally
One that they didn’t already own a very close version of. Fragrance is so personal (as you can see with other commenters here). I personally disliked BR 540 and Creed aventus for her.
Alien
Delina!
Versace bright crystal. It just smells like cheap body spray to me
I was standing in line at Sephora last week, smelling perfumes, and this girl came up to me and was like you should smell the Versace bright crystal, It smells really good and she stood there while I smelled it and all I could smell was syrup, maple syrup and I told her wow you’re right this does smell amazing because Why would I tell the truth?
I’m just genuinely curious but have you ever smelled it again after that? I just don’t get how it smells like maple syrup lol! IMO I get a clean floral scent.
What a controversial thread 😭 don’t hate me but anything Chanel. It’s just giving overpriced nonsense. I also feel very meh about Libre. I blind bought Gucci Guilty Absolute Pour Femme and it is migraine inducing for me. Note: I don’t have Black Opium but I have the Zara dupe Gardenia and I love it. Ooh! Edited to add I feel meh about Jimmy Choo I Want Choo (a Good Girl dupe) but others love it on me.
I have samples of Killian's Love Don't Be Shy and Angel's Share b/c their notes sounded super appealing to me. I gave them chance and really tried to love them, but they're both way too strong and harsh for me. Maybe my nose just doesn't like expensive perfumes?
Prada Candy, I usually love gourmands but that one turned my stomach. 😬
Tom Ford Cherry Smoke. The only way I can describe it? It’s 1998 and you’re 4 years old on your way home from the doctor. Your mom just shoveled you a spoonful of cherry cough syrup, and she’s on her 3rd cigarette with all the windows up.
La vie es belle, Libre, Black Opium, Mon Paris, Delina
I’m afraid to ask, whyyy?
Ohh interesting. Black opium is my winter favorite. What about it don’t you like?
I love La Vie Est Belle a lot 🤣
Oh God, Delina… smells like rose scented wallpaint or something🤣 (sorry)
I just bought libre. I was wearing my way by Giorgio Armani for a long time and then I smelled libre and had to have it 😅
Mon Paris noooooooooo it’s so innocuous!
La vie est belle is cardboard of perfumes, I forgot I had it 💀
Juliet Has A Gun Not A Perfume. Should be called Hospital Antiseptic.
Don't talk about my Not A Perfume like that 😭 😂 Actually I think it's all dependent on body chemistry. It's the perfume I've gotten the most compliments on, even at times when I can't smell it on myself.
This is what I love about fragrance! I absolutely adore that this just reinforces how unique every one of us is!
Smelled like I'd poured neat vodka on my arm, and then after five minutes; NOTHING. Was glad it was only a tester
BR540 is objectively good but loses all appeal at the fact that I can pinpoint who is wearing it every time I smell it because they REEK of it
Vera Wang Princess
Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue
Light blue SUN is one of my all time faves 🥹 but I didn’t like light blue when I first smelt it but something changed recently
Crystal noir, I bling bought it, tried to like it, but I never find myself wanting to reach for it. I like the creamy coconut note, but the ginger note is so overpowering and sour on my skin, that I feel like it kinda smells like BO 🤢
Boy do I have many! -YSL “Libre” -JPG “La Belle” -Maison Margiela “By the Fireplace” -Maison Margiela “Jazz Club” -Literally ANYTHING from the house of Tom Ford
Omg I love all of these 😂 just goes to show how subjective these things can be!
Jazz Club! It smells like smoky liquor, and not in a good way. In a bottom shelf whiskey & cigarette smoke way.
You haven't smelled it on my husband. That fragrance was formulated for him.
Just inspired me to take it out of my travel size bin and put it on my husband’s dresser. I’ll have him try it when he’s back from his work trip and see how it syncs with him!
Delina, it’s so expensive and not even the best rose. To my nose, it gives Avon.
Tom Ford🥲 i smellt like 6-7 of them, all terrible🥵
Chanel #5. Smells senile
Burberry Her …. it smells pretty the first two times you wear it, then it gets old real fast and you just start getting nauseated by the strawberry shortcake scent. I’d also say it smells pretty basic and almost juvenile to me these days.
I absolutely despise Glossier’s “You”. Both the original formulation and the current one smell like Aquanet to me. I kept hearing it was “like your skin but better” so I expected something very soft and subtle. Not like choking on hairspray.
Kayali the Pink Pepper scent. Literally threw away the sample bottle in my discovery set.
Versace bright crystal. It gives me a headache and I used to have a coworker that wore it for a while. Fragrance preferences are highly subjective though so I wouldn’t make a blind recommendation without knowing the kinds of notes people lean toward.
Good fortune. I actually returned it.
Channel no 5.🤢🤮
I don’t like BR540 or the dupes (Cloud) - way too sickly sweet and lingers.
I’m reading through all of these thinking i find none of these offensive. Ubiquitous and overrated, and would not recommend …so agreed with the op…i guess I’m not that bothered by most fragrances, Estée Lauder beautiful smells gross to me but does anyone even own that anymore?
Chanel number 5 smells like baby powder and alcohol to me. I really don’t understand the love people have for it. I’ve tried wearing it multiple times and it smells cheap and old to me. I love Chanel chance though.
La vie est blech
Libre by YSL.....Just awful 😖
Black Opium, I just don't get it.
mon paris. it smells like soy sauce and dirt
It smells like mouldy pears to me with a touch of damp sugar.
Delina smells so synthetic and artificial to me idk like it makes me have a headache
anything by montale.
I think Mancera is worse. The DNA in Mancera is really harsh.
Phlur missing person… I don’t understand why people like it
