😅 welcome to the perfume rabbit hole…

I can already tell I’m in trouble! 🤣🤣

I blind bought Frederick Malle lipstick rose and absolutely HATED IT!!!!!! Stinks so bad and I love lipstick fragrances. Iris and orris root I’m such a sucker for. Lipstick rose smells like Johnson and Johnson baby powder, butt wipes, and a hint of rose 🤮 I immediately sold it on mecari to someone else. I blind bought Vi canto Stricnina and I love it. I also bought two cabanel “Ohh La La” and I adore it it as well. I blind buy but their more hits than misses.

You are brave! 🙈 I dislike all of those sentences. 🙅‍♀️ I'm glad you enjoy all of them. 😊 I love buying parfums but have to many bad blind buys so now I test out before I get the full bottles but it is fun to blind buy.

I think you did a really good job describing the scents 😉. And I enjoyed watching your first reaction and subsequent (initial) conclusions. I have had the Xerjoff scent for a while now and indeed my bottle has a peach fuzz exterior. Perhaps it's a new(er) bottle design.
As far as blind buying goes... everybody says not to blind buy. They are correct. And still I blind buy 60% of my perfumes 🤣.
Maybe I'm a thrill seeker, or addicted to the rush 🤣🤣. But I am quite careful. Even when I don't blind buy. I do a lot of research online.
And the fact that I don't have the funds to buy all I want is also very 😜helpful 😆.
I liked this... a lot!!!

Thank you so much!!! I know it’s irresponsible to blind buy but yeah sometimes you gotta take a risk! Haha

It's Frag Nat Ika 😂

Lolll yup definitely missed a few letters and just went off of vibes 🙈🙈🙈

You were right about the Xerjoff bottles. Some of their fragrances, such as Erba Pura, Accento, Opera, Ouverture, used to come in velvet drapped bottles. Now they revamped the bottles.

Thankfully-hate those furry velvet bottles😅

Good to know! Yeah I had a vague memory of it but wasn’t sure!
