15 MOST HATED FRAGRANCES... ( these are the worst perfumes according to you )

[@sinjint13]

As a dude who lives in NYC everybody and their mothers wear Santal 33 or BKR 540. Its everywhere. I think thats why people hate them so much and not necessarily because they smell bad.

[@xSBAx]

I never liked Chanel no5 in my younger days but now I absolutely love it 😻 it’s clean and very strong. I really do enjoy it now. My nose has evolved 😅

[@hayley.clough]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@FragranceJunkie]

Same! I hated no5. Now-I own EDP, EDT, L’eau… I’m obsessed ❤

[@alvarod9288]

Same! I think it's because it was the first time i smelled civet in a fragrance, I've never had anything against aldehydes or powdery florals

[@auntieemmee]

I really struggle with gourmands. Either too sweet, too chocolaty or coffee... i appreciate all fragrances, but i just cant smell like food.

[@PuntodeVista3176-xc9gd]

Same here... I cook every day, I do not want to smell more food ( bakery) all day long.

[@reneecrotty6910]

I HATEEEEEE GUIDANCE WITH A PASSION!!!!!! I am sooo glad to see finally people agree!!!

[@lonnekeoonk4442]

I personally love Chanel No°5 and it's the only one more high end perfume I have right now. I think it smells so soft and classy. I can't get enough of it, I always get complimented when I wear it. So I've never understood how it's the most disliked perfume for some.

[@ksmith3064]

I really can not understand the hate for BR 540. As many have said, “It’s a victim it’s own mass appeal ‼️”

[@deadlyradiation7977]

BR 540 is a boxer dropper for me.♥ I know that is more than you wanted to know.

[@jJ-xg6zq]

I understand.. I hate the fragrance, but with a different reason. It is connected to child trafficking

[@ksmith3064]

@ 😢😢🥲

[@BGalwah1]

I like it but honestly it’s a common scent profile now. It smells like really crystalized sugar to me with a tinge of stale cigarettes

[@Ilona__]

I do not like BR because the smell is not pleasant to me. I guess the hate comes in for two reasons: it is everywhere and it is super potent. If it were weaker, those who do not enjoy the perfume, would not care...

[@star579_Chandra]

I kind of wonder, with how fragrances have exploded bc of TikTok, if there is now a lot more exposure to fragrances that are not intended to be “mainstream.” I do not feel like these niche or more unique fragrances were meant to be enjoyed by the masses but bc of the exposure, they have become well known. Honestly, it can (and should) take time to “train” our noses to enjoy more “niche” scents.

[@frankiefavero1666]

Great list, but where is that screechy, tart and unbearably incense-y Delina?! I know I'm swimming against the current here, but I cannot stand Delina, it is so sharp, strong and loud and whenever I smell it, I feel queasy and annoyed haha. On the other hand I like BR540 but I LOVE the Extrait, it's my ride or die :)

[@mel8807]

It has waaay too much rose for my liking

[@oshifish2]

I cant stand Delina!

[@Kimmb1968]

I also can’t stand Delina. To me rose reminds me of funeral homes. I agree it’s screechy. It makes me feel queasy and I have to wash it off my skin after testing. I don’t get the hype. Rouge is a lovely scent.

Hi Hayley, please note that Dior Poison is very different from Hypnotic Poison. You inserted a picture of the latter when talking about the first.

[@joannathesinger770]

It has taken me literal DECADES to not loathe Chanel No 5. In the past year, I've oddly begun to appreciate it. No, I still have a hard time getting past the gag reflex I have from the aldehydic overdose (it may be reminiscent of having my mouth washed out with soap when I was younger), but once past the initial spray, I can enjoy it. I'm actually considering buying a bottle, which is coming a LONG way round for me! Now...I ordered a small decant of Houbigant Quelques Fleurs to see what the hype was about. Another aldehydic overdose...but also with overwhelmingly unbalanced floral notes in it that don't smell like actual flowers. Yikes!!! Not for me and will never be for me!!! I also blind-bought Choc de Cardin because the bottle was very inexpensive. It may have been a bad bottle, but it has THE skankiest vile patchouli I've ever smelled. I put it away and am considering trying again since air was introduced to the bottle to see if it has improved over the past year. It's kind of reminiscent of uncomposted manure, which is not a pleasant smell. I was hoping for a chocolate patchouli like the name suggested.

[@jennywho604]

This is a fun one Hayley! I’m on Year One of my fragrance journey and have been really surprised how I don’t like many popular fragrances, because they smell different to me than how others describe them. At times it’s a real bummer, for example Velvet Tonka just smells like straight baby powder to me, no other notes at all 🤷‍♀️ But then the ones I love, I *really* love! I kinda like that some fragrances are polarizing, to me that means they have a strong “point of view” so to speak. Thanks for another great video!!!

[@breannacarels6479]

Me too. I learned early on I have a different nose than many other people. The only way to know is to keep smelling / sampling. Velvet Tonka (and many Tonka fragrances smell like dirty diapers to me). Funny that others get that from Vanille de Tahiti!

[@irinka_kat]

With Chanel no. 5, eau de Parfum makes me feel a bit oily but the pure Parfum is beautiful. Clean and classy.

[@shahzebnasir4692]

I'm surprised to not see a single Montale or Mancera on this list. I remember a teenager that used to watch fragrance TikToks in the gym once came in with what must have been 30 sprays of Red Tobacco... I've since discovered the beauty in having a home gym and have never looked back 😭😭😭

[@kevinwilliams1256]

😆

[@AmiAbroad]

Ohhh, interesting topic. Hate is such a strong word. I generally dislike perfumes that are tooo heavy on the florals, rose in particular. La Vie est Belle, the OG is tooo sweet for my nose. But the Iris Absolu flanker is lovely! But Baccarat Rouge haters? Naaa. I don't buy it. BR540 fatigue I can understand, though.

[@maxfortefan2947]

BR540 is good but its overplayed and annoying now, like the same song playing on the radio every day for 5+ years…

[@hayley.clough]

Haha!! Yeah totally get that

[@EWinGVL]

Any perfume described as "creamy or milky sandalwood. " Unfortunately, they lean sour milk, urine soaked diaper, or both 🤢. It's unfortunate because I WANT so badly to enjoy it. I've tried so many, but they pretty much all hate my skin chemistry.

[@me4011]

Then spray on your clothes

[@EWinGVL]

@me4011 I've tried so many (just on my clothes) but I'm at the point that it turns my stomach. It's probably psychological, but I'm done with those types of sandalwood scents.

[@oshifish2]

Thats sucks because they work realllly well with me! I could see that being the case for some people! Im the same with the real lemony ones out lately like the latest Gucci in the yellow bottle. My coworkers are raving about it. I smelled it and it smells like gas station bathroom lol!

[@Alliebrad17]

Why isn’t CH Good Girl on this list 😅 so gross and synthetic

[@humayrachowdhury3246]

You know something is very popular when it also gets a lot of hate 😅 and it is not limited to just fragrances. Regarding the fragrances mentioned here: 1) Vanille de Tahiti - I also get a feces smell 😂 2) Bianco Latte - While I don't dislike it, I don't like it either. To me, it's just sweet vanilla and there is nothing more to it. I prefer my vanilla perfumes to have some woods, spices or a bit more character. I can see why Bianco latte is so popular but it isn't my cup of tea. As for my most hated fragrances 1) Allende from Xerjoff - very cloying vanilla and smells very synthetic/plastic-y 2) Luxor from Xerjoff - smells like feces

[@jraysunrise]

I don’t understand why people are hating N°5 to me it’s smells classic “old money” vibe.. it was my perfume when i was 20yrs old eventhough i wear the eau premiere now more often than the OG. But yeah been my signature scent for years now am 31 so 11yrs in my wardrobe

[@BGalwah1]

Not sure why most people hate it but I’m sensitive to aldehydic perfumes. They make me 🤢

[@Deem57]

When you posed the question, 'What perfumes are the worst?" I immediately thought Red Door, Hypnotic Poison, and Youth Dew.

[@teetee9302]

I totally agree with Amouage Guidance...I just don't like it and I've tried it several times. But Bianco Latte is a love for me so I disagree with that one. And BR540 is and always will be a LOVE for me!! It's a holy grail for me and will always be in my collection.

[@jerseycatmews828]

I have and adore BR540 and Bianco Latte too. BL smells like an expensive vanilla ice cream on me

Im convinced people love to hate BR540 just to be different😂😂 it’s not a bad scent at all. Maybe it’s overdone with all the dupes but overall it’s not a bad smell … but I guess fragrance is subjective so each to their own. I originally disliked Guidance and a year later I fell in love with the scent 😍🥰 currently my signature scent!

[@yorkiemom4272]

Burberry's original was my go-to perfume. I try different fragrances, but I have to wear it around the store before buying or get a sample. I agree with some comments here that fragrances change on different people, and you should wear very little because people can be triggered by scents. Remember White Diamonds and Heaven Scent. Those would littlerally make me gag. Thank you for your unbiased report!

[@AScentedSoul]

Yes I absolutely hate Bianca Latte… most gourmands can be too sweet and often smell like a cheap doll to my nose but this is just too Smokey almost charred and I can’t wear it. And Black Orchid is disgusting and gives me an instant headache. Velvet Orchid Lumiere used to be a good one that I owned years ago. And yes, fragrances are def subjective. No one hates your perfume just because… our noses pick up on scents quite differently❤

Absolutely agree with the ending of your message 🤗

Dior Poison or hypnotic poison? Poison is the original from the 80s, hypnotic poison ( edp/edt) is the very popular flanker with vanilla and licorice/almond. Almost none use the original poison today, sadly. She is a favorite beside shalimar to me. A fruity masterpiece

[@matildalepoglavec9267]

Out of all mentioned (I didn't try them all) I love Guidance the most. It's my top 10 perfumes.

[@elisasanchezcorrea9739]

My most hated fragrances are Dior Eden-Roc and Juliette Has A Gun Ode to Dullness; they both smell to me like a woman who hasn't showered in days and is trying to cover it up with fragrance. Also Giardini di Toscana Christos, which I don't dislike at first but after a while it becomes too overwhelming and even nauseating. About Baccarat Rouge 540, I know that a lot of people have grown tired of it because it's very popular in the fraghead community, but in my personal social circle no one has heard about it, because no one is interested in niche fragrances.

[@hayley.clough]

[@thewanderingorphan]

I hate the initial pencil shavings burst on top. Like so much. But within five minutes anyone around me is throwing compliments and my hubby won't get his face out of my neck. So I suffer the first five bc after that it's amazing. To me, at least. But I totally get what you're saying❤❤❤

[@agnesmeszaros-matwiejuk8783]

I agree basically with the whole list. I myself started loving Guidance 46, I also started not hating the OG. The worst on the list for me are La vie est belle including also all its flankers. I can‘t take the sickly sweet DNA it has, could not take it a decade ago, but revisiting it lately I still hate it as it makes me nauseous. The other is Erba Pura, for me the opening is nice, but the drydown is way worse. The amberocenide makes it insufferable, not only on me, but everyone else wearing it around me. It comes off as very sweaty BO that you cannot even scrub off. :(

It was also Marlyn Monroes favorite.

[@VanessaMaddoux]

With Red Door being on there I would for sure add White Diamonds as a contemporary scent of the RD that is equally appalling, ha! Whew! And, not to point out a particular scent (as there are several in the recent year) but I don't like the popcorn note. It throws me off. I feel like sometimes a caramel scent will add too much salt or something and it starts smelling like popcorn to me. I like edible scents and even like caramel/toffee notes but if it goes into popcorn, it's a no for me. The Cirque De Soleil scent is like that and I got some of that from Amore Cafe and just couldn't go there.

[@barackhab]

Unfortunately I have to agree with the dislike for Vanille de Tahiti. I received a decant of it free with a purchase from someone and just sprayed it on without any prior research just to feel uneasy and lowkey nauseaous in a few seconds. Had to get rid of it, I really strongly got that ominous note. Also Guidance is a strange one for me. Love getting a whiff of it out and about but on me? Absolutely not. I also dislike Bianco Latte, Alien and Angel unfortunately. The rest are either just okay or I don't even know, no major loves for me on this list!

Have set aside but a little hesitant to spray it on me again. 🤢 Eventually I’ll give it another try but it’s a hard pass on first try. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I notice vintage perfumes get a lot of hate. While we may not want to smell like our mothers, I think if you're a true fragrance fan you should at least respect that these perfumes were what created the art of modern perfumery, like we wouldn't have gourmands today without Angel, which was the very first gourmand ever. So, while everyone's entitled to their own opinion, I think they should at least respect fragrances like Angel, Alien and Chanel No. 5 as the icons that they are.

[@vanbart9303]

Some of these comments are still terrible despite the disclaimer at the beginning. Most of you have novice noses. You're not perfumers, you're probably not even halfway decent hobbyist reviewers. I cannot imagine the height of arrogance it would take to blatantly claim that a famous, groundbreaking, well-regarded perfume is "garbage/disgusting/needs to be banned/inexcusable" or whatever else. Taste is one thing, but making definitive statements as if have the authority or experience to even qualify those claims is absurd. And stunningly narcissistic. I'm not even going to mention which ones I love, am neutral toward, or hate. It would be nuts for me to go as far as to say the ones I dislike are worthless though. Most of you need to stay off Fragrantica or Basenotes. There is an absolute famine of worthwhile writing on Fragrantica especially (Basenotes reviews are subject to moderator's choice to publish or not and undergo a pending state before being approved or denied...so there's that at least) and with most people lacking the ability to see outside their own narrow perspective, it would be prefereable if people learned how to remain detached and fair before being allowed to submit anything. Since maybe 20% or thereabouts are even remotely worth reading, I think something akin to "The Basics of Art Appreciation" should be taught in schools. It could cover a myriad of topics at a glance - music, cuisine, visual art, olfactive art, poetry, etc. Honestly, my kids know not to dump all over someone else's preferences, and approach differences in a more consructive manner. It's not difficult, but clearly most of society had really suboptimal teachers and parents 🙄
