...MitchcraftI am glad to see it has got busier recently. @EmberRose and I have certainly been pumping out a few new topics to hopefully bring some fun in the off-topic section and the perfume section also. We can only create the topics, though others need to take part in replying. I know this is an old post, but i do want to try to let new people know who maybe read this that there are some of us posting daily and coming up with new stuff on top of the regular kind of posts you see on most forums.Good for you.  That is great to know!  I have been so busy in the last year or so that I do not check in on the site unless I receive an email about a new review for one of the perfumes in my collection.  I try to take a look at the new reviews as they come in, but it is a flying visit.

...Welcome, Kathryn!  Nice to have you with us.  I hope you continue to enjoy Parfumo.  This site is not as active as some others, but the people here are nice, and as you say, the reviews are great.  Funnily enough, I was watching a film about St. Louis just last night.  Any time I think of St. Louis, I think of Judy Garland and the great old film, Meet Me in St. Louis.  😋  

...Welcome, Churi.  I hope you enjoy you time here.  🙂

...Has anyone tried the new Zazan?  What did you think of it.  Who is the perfumer?  

...Bonjour Dorothée. Bienvenue chez Parfumo ! Je suis sûr que vous trouverez ici de nombreux autres membres qui partagent votre enthousiasme pour le parfum. Je sais que je le fais !     😊

...Hello Giodevil.  Welcome to Parfumo!  I also love wood and incense notes.  😊

...Hello, Loanna!  Welcome!  Glad you joined us! 😊

...Hello, and welcome to Parfumo.  I remember your reviews on the other site.  I hope you will contribute reviews here, too.  I hope you enjoy your time here.  😃

...Hello and welcome.  I hope you enjoy the site and find it very useful on your perfume journey.  :)

...Hello Telekenic.  Welcome to Parfumo.  Congrats on getting past your allergies so that now you can finally enjoy perfume--one of life's great pleasures in my opinion.  There is a lot of information on this site, and a lot of members write reviews, which should help you to make up your mind about blind buys.  I bought almost my entire collection blind after reading many reviews and studying notes, and I can honestly say, in all these years, I only had 2-3 fragrances at most that I disliked after receiving them.  If you do your homework, I think you can blind buy successfully, too.  In addition to the site you mentioned, there are other perfume sites and blogs to explore, and a lot of people do video reviews on YouTube, so check out those videos, too.  🙂Cheers! 

...Hello Dedmar.  Welcome to the community.  Your journey sounds much like the journeys of us all as we fell down the rabbit hole, too.  😄  

...That is one patient mum!  😄

...Looks like eBay took down the page.  I wonder if they reversed the policy?

...You can search fragrances by name and read the notes in each one.  Most will have a few reviews.  You can also write fragrance reviews if you are so inclined.The site also has various forums where perfume and related topics are discussed.Hope you enjoy the site.  Take care and Merry Christmas! 🙂

...I just read about this and am absolutely gobsmacked.   Please sign the form and ask your friends, family, and co-workers to sign as well.  This is nothing short of outrageous!!"If you resell perfumes on any site, those sites are now required to report the amount you sell to the IRS regardless of the fact that you paid taxes on that item in the first place. You will still be required to pay more taxes on that item if you sold $600 or more within a year. Right now, selling sites are issuing petitions to urge Congress to revoke the new law which was sneaked into the 2020 stimulus package. The new law also exposes all the personal information of the seller to the buyer. Unfortunately, it seems our elected officials don't even bother to read the bills they are voting on. If you want this new, unfair law overturned please sign the petition to urge Congress to revoke this unfair practice. Have all your friends and family sign it too."https://www.ebaymainstreet.com... … 2022-1099K

...Oh, well that is okay then.  🙂

...EmberRoseAdding to this but I'll be getting two extra back-ups of Le Male Le Parfum one 125ml and a spare 200ml because I'm going through my current 200ml bottle at a stupid rate, mostly because it's helping to ease my anxiety. Well, if it helps you at the moment, then do what you have to do, but if you are having an ongoing crisis of some sort, perhaps you should consider talking to your doctor or someone?  Wishing you all the best.  Stay safe, EmberRose.  

...I just noticed the perfumes now have an audible pronunciation feature.  Love it!  This is a great addition to the site!!  Kudos Parfumo!!  😍 🎉

...I buy almost all of my perfumes on-line.  I would say that 99 out of every 100 of my perfumes were purchased on-line, so this is significant for me and people like me who buy a lot on-line.  I have purchased from several grey market sellers with few problems overall.  Last year I purchased an expensive fragrance from The Perfume Box in New Jersey.  At the time, I recommended them in one of my posts somewhere.  Well, I can no longer recommend them after what they did with my private contact information today.I planned to order several fragrances in a couple of days, so I logged into my account and put some fragrances into my cart.  A short while later, they sent a marketing text message to my mobile re one of the more expensive fragrances in my cart..  I was/am livid!!!  My mobile number is for friends, family, and legitimate business phone calls ONLY and never for marketing text messages from ANYONE!!  I have never given my permission to ANYONE to send me marketing text messages.  I cannot imagine anyone wants to receive marketing text messages to his/her personal, private number.I tried to bell their 800 number.  They STILL have their number on answer phone, and you cannot leave them a message either.  I tried to bell the number they texted me from.  The number cannot be called.  Tells you a lot about how much they want anyone, even customers, to contact them by phone or text, huh??I am SICK TO DEATH of inappropriate marketing.  I have mostly stopped all junk mail coming to my home.  I have blocked many phone numbers and emailers.  I hate marketers!!!  If I want to buy something, I do my research and make a decision.  No amount of marketing of any kind will ever induce me to buy anything.  This has gotten so out of hand.  From last Thanksgiving onward, I received 5 or more emails PER DAY from various companies including Macy's, Lancome, Neimans, etc., all the way until well after New. Years Day.  This goes too far.  They look desperate, and they show their total disrespect for people by doing this sort of thing.  They go TOO FAR.  NO ONE WANTS TO RECEIVE 5 MARKETING EMAILS A DAY FROM ANYONE!!  And, personally, I do not ever want any messages sent to my mobile by anyone who sells anything.This was a egregious breach of trust and a total abuse of my personal contact information.  I do not pay for phone service to receive spam text messages from ANYONE.  Beware of what they will do with your contact information if you allow them to have it.  I recommended them last year, but I no longer recommend them.  CAVEAT EMPTOR!

...I am unfamiliar with either of those perfumes, but that might have something to do with it.  The D&G definitely says "banana," though.
