...There was an exodus of active members who left Fragrantica and came here. I followed them here out of curiosity but fell in love with the site. I've met some wonderful people and enjoyed members' profiles as a means of getting to know the people behind the reviews. Overall, it's more intimate and welcoming here.

...It's a weird quirk of mine but I really hate the telephone. So a letter it is!When it comes to snacking, salty or sweet?

...Before I lock the topic I just want to say I'm so excited you're getting a bottle of "Eau de Cologne Impériale"! :D

...Exciter76:I don't necessarily put on a perfume specifically for sleeping but sometimes I'll spritz something after a shower/before bed. That go-to scent for me...

...I don't necessarily put on a perfume specifically for sleeping but sometimes I'll spritz something after a shower/before bed. That go-to scent for me is "Eau de Cologne Impériale".

...you’re enjoying it, Exciter76. I expect to be buying their Jasmin & Ylang as well. Hope to continue soon. It’s such a delight to explore perfumes of this quality...

...How is it I'm just now noticing this thread?! Sheesh... I'm getting a kick out of reading your thoughts. Thank you for sharing your impressions thus far. I haven't had a lot of luck with natural perfumes but I'm always open to trying new ones. I want to blind buy Davana & Vanille Bourbon based on your review. Jasmin & Ylang Solaire sounds like my kind of scent; I'm anxiously awaiting your thoughts on that one.

...I'd assumed I'd already contributed to this topic already. Oops! Let me make my contributions...· I'm deaf in one ear· I have no children but my nieces are my world· I was considered a prodigious child artist· I actually enjoy working on minor home repairs· If I could do anything I'd be a professional student

...Trucklady:Oh, wow...! I had NO idea it wasn't just me getting the tail end of Zoka's whip. Thank you for providing this thread. It confirms a lot of things I have witnessed, and experienced, at Fragrantica. A few folk recommended Parfumo and I'm glad I am here. Such a different vibe going on. Even the quality of reviews is remarkably different.I'm really glad you're here, Trucklady! :D

...I'm a total makeup junkie! I picked up a few Nyx eyeshadow palettes recently. I've been feeling bright eye colors/nude lips for nights out and simple cat eye/loud lipstick colors for everyday. I used to work for Clinique so I'm partial to them but I love Benefit, MAC, and Urban Decay.Do you have a favorite brand (or brands)? What about makeup looks--do you have a go-to look? Maybe I'll be brave and post one of my makeup looks. Do you have pictures of your favorite makeup looks?

..."No. 02 - L'Air du Désert Marocain" is one of my favorite cumin-containing fragrances.

...That's a gorgeous bottle but I have no clue what it is. Maybe "Nilang 1995 Eau de Toilette"? I'm curious to know what it is!

...KingPin:Franfan20:This won't happen. This content won't be made visible.Feel free to browse your review answers or other reviews of scents in your collection to find like-minded people.Why not? Is there a specific reason?Like FranFan20 said, there's the issue of envy and dispute. (Yes, there is an echo here!) Let's say I like one of your reviews but I don't give a 'thumbs up' to the review below you. Then let's assume the reviewer below you takes issue with the fact that I didn't vote positively on his review and he confronts me. Where do you think this will go? Another thing to consider? If we're listing the names of people who vote positively, then it would have to be assumed the names of people who vote negatively will be revealed, right? Again, how do you think this will play out?I agree, again, with FranFan20--reach out to others who have spoken favorably about a scent you enjoy. Or commiserate over the poor souls who wear a scent you loathe! There is the wall feature, which allows members to converse directly, and of course, there is the forum. I love the many ways of reaching out to others here on Parfumo. Play around with it and see what suits you! :)

...I'm a two-spray girl usually, three to four sprays if it's weak.

...Wow, those are very nice! Thank you for sharing your ads. Anyone else? I'm enjoying the eye candy!

...Seems like it's as good a place to post! I think it's a really cool idea. I'm nosey--would you be willing to share photos of the ads you have? That might help generate some interest, too.

...@Xanthon and @Pepdal thanks for the recommendations!I'm craving more dupes. Anyone?

...Anessa:Parfumo - a hot tip as a treasure trove of informationNo matter if a certain website would call Parfumo a "nasty pesky copy-cat spam-website with trashy pages" or treat Parfumo's name as some kind of Voldemort of the perfume community - Parfumo has long been discreetly enjoying its reputation as the hot tip for one-of-a-kind information.Without bragging about the fact, Parfumo has been quietly serving as THE high-quality source for many perfume-related websites worldwide.· · ·Openly or not, Parfumo's status in the serious online perfume world has long been established.Kudos to Parfumo - let's continue setting high standards as the back-stage role model and the source of inspiration for other perfume-related websites worldwide!Yes! Agreed!

...My pleasure! I hope I was able to help.I haven't tried the newest bottles out there but I've used one from 2016 and it smelled fine to me. It was long lasting and just as beautiful as I remembered. But, again, hopefully someone who has tried the newest bottles can confirm your suspicions. I've heard people complain about the newest bottles of "J'adore" and original "Poison".Best of luck! :D
