Also got to try the new NR Vetiver Musc and it STRONGLY reminded me of something I already smelled before. Another cypressy vetiveryl acetate woody amber heavy on the geraniol. Not even a like.

Hey, Chris! I'm with you on the name of the new TF perfume. TF trying to be shocking is so stupid. I'm also annoyed with "gasm" on makeup and perfume, such as with the new Kayali ones. Charlotte Tilbury won't stop with the "gasm," either, and it's all so overdone at this point. Anyway, I also am finished with buying cherry perfumes. I have a few and they all smell too similar, so I will wear them and enjoy them and I will not buy anymore cherry perfumes. I worry the oversaturation in the market of notes like cherry is going to make me tired of certain notes more quickly, though I never seem to tire of vanillas.

Really enjoyed your candid takes on these new releases!!!🤣 Loving banana notes at the moment and I got a kick out of your Nanatopia experience! I was also disappointed in it, not quite as bad as you, but I also got a powerful earthy woody note, I think it must be the cypriol oil/nagarmotha they used that I wasn't jiving with, because I usually love damp, complex patchoulis like Serge Lutens Borneo 1834 & Coromandel! I just wish I got way more of the gourmand notes like the banana, bread and tonka! For banana bread, have you tried Haus of Gloi "Fancy Bread" (from their Yule collection)? It smells exactly like real warm, banana bread straight out of the oven to me! I want to get it in body products next time, highly rec if you haven't tried it!

If we don't initially like a fragrance, should we try it again? I liked Penhaligon's Yasmine when I first sprayed it and it was fine. After showering, I used a few sprays, and decided I didn't like it. It seemed more like an air freshener. When I woke up in the morning, I liked it again, but had to touch my wrist to my nose in order to smell it. This fragrance has me more confused than any other fragrance. I can't decide if it's full bottle worthy even though everyone likes it. I suffer from FOMO.
@ThePerfumeNest11 ай бұрын
Honestly I really don’t unless I blind bought it and I’m going to lose a lot of money selling it; I’ll try it a few times more. If it’s a sample? Nope. I’m usually done at that point. ❤️
@deannas151511 ай бұрын
I also think that if we don't like it from the start, others who smell it on us may not like it either, even if we've grown to love it. @@ThePerfumeNest

@@ThePerfumeNest I went through a sample. Then a decant. And then opted for a bottle. And it has a decent sized dent in it. Sugar Addict is referred to as a "fragrance sweetener". Which sounds like marketing BS. I mean, couldn't any sweet fragrance suitable for layering be a "sweetener"? 🙄

Smelled TFVS during the holidays and thought it was really yummy at first, then dried down to a super plasticky sweet almond. In fact, when people say a fragrance gives them the nostalgic doll smell, I didn’t know what they meant. It’s this. Thankfully didn’t get a dirty smell on my skin but I am not interested at all. I did get a decant of TF Vanille Fatale and it smelled a-ma-zing on my husband.

Vanilla Sex was boring. I am not a fan of Miss Dior, but am thrilled that Francis is taking over the fragrances. That Montale is surprising with the name that it is so floral. Won't be trying Nanatopia (it wasn't on my radar anyways). Not interested in a coffee fragrance now that the weather is changing to spring. I smelled Narcotic Delight on a test strip, wish I had tried on skin now. I had Musk Therapy on my mind because I had just bought Rania J Musc Moschino and people told me they were similar. Musc Moschino was 100% better than Musk Therapy so that made me happy I had made the right choice. I work with a 3rd grader who when someone uses the work "Hate" she says that's a bad word and looks horrified. Love your outfit!!
