Have you ever taken a whiff of something and been immediately transported back in time? No, we’re not talking about time travel; we’re talking about nostalgia! Throwing ball with your dad, building blanket forts with mom, playing video games with friends. Well TikTok claims this new perfume (Phlur Missing Person) is meant to bring out ALL of the nostalgia. Not necessarily memories of childhood, but of someone you miss. But does this actually work? We tested the TikTok product to find out!

Regarding the "you put it on a card, not your wrist" is this: Putting it on the skin will automatically give it a more personified smell. Your human smell mixed with the perfume = person's scent Perfume on card = perfume's scent I think MatPat was trying to see if it was the perfume by itself doing all the "missing person" work, but didn't think to say it to us, or over think it in general.

Exactly! Test on the paper to find ones you like them on yourself to find the one that works best bc it will change on you. Got a men and women's sample the other day(different brands). I preferred to females despite normally wearing men's (I am a woman). Once I sprayed them on myself the women's began to smell like older lady vanilla and dead flowers the men's became less musky and more clean and fresh. One thing I can say is the women's lasted forever!

I’ve actually had experience with finding a smell that reminded me of a lost one. One of my grandparents (we simply called her “Grandma by the river”) passed away when I was young. One of my teachers recently had come back to a trip to Germany I believe, and one of the items she brought back was a bar of hotel hand soap that smelled EXACTLY like my Grandma by the river’s house!

Makes sense that the perfume would smell akin to a grandma's/grandma's house/an old dressing room. The familiar scent is possibly coming from used makeup products/perfume that is stacked heavily in the dressing room of your mom or grandma that has accumulated skin cells after much usage. Hence, the volatile organic compounds that triggers smells of the ingredients from the used beauty products + the skin cells attached to the makeup object or perfume creates this unique scent, which then the producers try to replicate using skin musks. Or not hehe.

Recently, about a month or so ago, I randomly had a scent bring me right back to my childhood. I'm a mother myself now, and when my kid came up to me and wanted me to make her some soapy water because she wanted to go outside and blow some bubbles. So I went inside our kitchen, and pulled out some rather expensive dish soap that my husband bought and BAM! When I opened the bottle, it took me right back to childhood summers spent with my grandma in my grandparents' little vacation home. That was the exact brand that she used when she was washing dishes and making soapy water for me to use to blow bubbles with as a child. When I had sent my kid outside to do her thing, I immediately called my mom to tell her. My grandma died 20 years ago.. I still miss her

I tried some wine on a trip to Italy at a fancy wine-tasting event (I wasn't the one who came up with the itinerary), and it was still the same taste that I find rather nasty. I don't know what to make of this. Food Theory idea maybe?

But I also know that no one wants to put smelly things on their body that will then be there all day so I get it lol.

My only question to this is: does spraying it on your own skin make the difference? Because that's the biggest difference between how Team Theorist smelled the perfume and the TikToks. Also, I wonder if it isn’t supposed to remind you of a person who's worn a similar perfume, but to remind you of a person's actual scent. A scent that is supposed to able to be brought out by a particular perfume that smells like nothing to you but smells attractive to someone else (or so I've been told, I can't confirm). If these are things worth looking into, I think they'd make cool follow up videos.

Hey Matt! Great Video! I am a perfume enthusiast and will be attending a perfumery school in the fall to become a perfumer, and I think there are a few biases here. Firstly, it seems like you viewed the fragrances almost entirely from a chemical perspective (save for the mentions of memories) and focused your analysis through that lens. I think including the other, equally important side of fragrances in potential future videos on the subject would be helpful. Art. The process of making a fragrance is not dissimilar to that of making a painting. Aroma chemicals act as our paint and the skin our canvas. Secondly, in a similar vein, fragrances are meant to be worn on skin and are constructed to interact with the chemistry of your skin. Wearing the fragrance very well could change the results, as some ingredients carry vastly different smells on different skins. Despite my criticism, I am exceedingly happy to see you discuss fragrances and I really hope to see more! I hope my words here were helpful!

I don't know why MatPat focused so much on romantic love here, the perfume just says it reminds you of someone you love and miss, so actually bringing the up the grandma is exactly the sort of thing it's meant to do. It was never meant to bring up an ex for someone happily in love with someone at present

Yes omg i've been looking for this comment! Seems like the obvious implication, right? Like why would you want to smell your ex? That's probably not the kind of emotional you'd willingly experience from a perfume.

I used to work in a professional perfume shop and every scent is gonna smell a little different on every person, and the best way to smell test a “skin scent” like this one is to put a very light amount on your wrist and let it sit for a minute or so before smelling it. It shouldn’t be applied heavily at all, and when first sprayed it will be much stronger than it’s meant to sit during the day

When I heard the pitch, my mind immediately went to “granny scent”. After all, it is the most likely candidate for someone to miss - childhood memories of the grandparents’ house are usually positive, which cannot always be said about exes. This perfume works like a horoscope!

I want more! You tested the scent on stinky cards. However, scents typically react when sprayed on our skin as they mix with our pheromones. I want to know if your team had different memories after spraying on their skin and smelling their skin at the different scent release intervals.

The perception of scent is wildly variable. I don't care for commercial perfumes or cologne because the alcohol carrier contaminates the scent profile way too much for me, but I sometimes buy the less diluted oils from places like Black Phoenix or Conjure Oils. I had one from BPAL that was from their 'Chaos Theory' line where every bottle was a unique mystery blend, and I swear it smelled like pot roast. Black pepper, thyme, bay leaf, the whole thing. I sold it to someone else and they just waxed rhapsodic about how wonderful it was to them and apparently nary a mention of pot roast... I wish them the joy of it. I'm just glad I moved it... Incidentally, your 'old lady' scent will be the jasmine and musk. Some musks (usually white musk, but 'skin musk' as well) often read as baby powder to the nose, especially the synthetics.

I wonder how much the scent changes when you put it on your skin. It’s known that putting perfume on yourself Vs a piece of paper smells differently and that’s because of your natural scent being mixed with the Perfume. And in a lot of the TikTok videos they put it on themselves and wave their arms to dry the perfume. So maybe when it’s mixed with your natural scent it might actually remind you of someone.
