Do you store your frag in the box?
by Violette | Perfume Discussions
...I always keep my collection at about 30 bottles, which is not much but already a lot too. Keeping them in their boxes would be annoying. At some point I used to keep fragrances I wasn't wearing at the moment in their boxes but I stopped because I enjoy having them on display, and I was making rotations too often anyway. Also, it would double the space, while I enjoy having all my frags all at the same spot (on my desk). I know someone who has fragrances displayed everywhere in his house though. I wear fragrances on a daily basis, sometimes different fragrances at the same time on different spots, I spray perfume on scarves, carrés de soie, drapes... Because I use my fragrances so much I don't really care about longevity as long as I keep them away from humidity and light. Sometimes I can finish 2-4 bottles in a month. But I know that if I don't intend on wearing a bottle for some time I will keep it in its box then.so the boxes mostly come useful for transport and reselling for now yes. Also I just really enjoy pretty packaging and reading the texts when there are some. I can't even throw away empty bottles and their boxes yet... But I will have to when I have too many.

How to organise perfume bottles?
by Violette | Off Topic
...parfumo's assistant is a really nice tool as well, i think it usually makes good picks and if you use the "spray" function enough it will also show you which fragrances you don't wear much

How to organise perfume bottles?
by Violette | Off Topic
...I don't have too many bottles yet and I avoid it as much as possible (I bought 4 frags last month, but before that I had finished 4 frags as well) but I still arrange specific rotations. I work with style/feelings and season and rotate my frags according to this. and i put the frags I chose on the first line. i organize other frags by predicting next rotations or by sorting them together according to their style/type. so currently first line is fall rotation, second line is sweet/gourmand, third line is predicted winter rotation, etc. can sort from anything depending on why you like your fragrances (intensity, brand, etc)the inventory idea is pretty good i think ill do it too. ill take my journal which i use to write on fragrances in general

Fragrance You'd Buy For A Teenager That Likes sweet Scents
by Violette | Perfume Recommendations
...vanilla, cherry, cacao, pistachio or marshmallow scents & realistic gourmands (like Bake ). tea frags too, maybe matcha?completely different and not super sweet but i highly suggest Milky Dragon . its powdery, fresh, with a superb tea note and later it smells a bit like apricot jam (osmanthus), it has a gourmand feel without pure sweetness, its really nice. perfectly unisex. feels mysterious, smells delicious, comfy, easy to wear, would overspray, any occasion to wear, daytime or nighttime.

...Une Pistache Awake Pêche Exquise + figue délicate (another vintage berdoues from same collection). Maybe will buy Églantine raffinée as well. I'm trying to complete the collection, even though only Pêche exquise is referenced online, meaning I can only find them by luck on eBay and Vinted. I don't even know how many exist in this collection. I guess I could try and contact Berdoues though. was also gifted a bottle of Ninfeo Mio by a seller who got a liking for me. It's not full ofc but there's still like 1/3.

...I often wear a different fragrance on my wrists, for my own personal enjoyment. I can even wear a different frag on each wrist, especially when I want to use my samples.

Tea note
by Violette | Perfume Recommendations
...Will soon try Milky Dragon inspired by milky oolong, which I did try recently, and it was a delicious sneak peek of the tea note and the buttery and roasted aspects of this fragrance that I heard so much about I wish I could get my nose on Tea for Two as well.I really love to drink and smell matcha. I own Replica - Matcha Meditation and tried Je Ne Sais Quoi recently. I like the white chocolate in Matcha Meditation but the Cabanel is much closer to matcha and is even more delicious. When I finish Matcha Meditation I will replace it with the Cabanel
