KathrynA66 Smell is a potent wizard that transports you across thousands of miles and all the years you have lived.” – Helen Keller. .............................................................................................. -I don't have a "signature scent" because fragrance is all about weather and mood for me. Where we live the weather is very fickle, and on the playground of life, I have a tendency to monopolize the mood-swing. 😀🥰🙄🫣🥺🤪 Stats: Gen X, Happily Married 👫(30), 🐕🐕, Midwest, 1 year ago

This is a really pretty peaches and cream fragrance. It's light, sweet and perfect for gourmand-lovers to wear in warm weather. The vanilla in used with a deft hand. It's definitely present, adding a bit of spice, but it never becomes cloying....

When penguins are grown, they head for the sea, but I learned from a Werner Herzog doc that sometimes, a penguin will head inland, away from the sea. I like to think of this fragrance as the journey of Malcolm, one such sea-avoidant...

This starts as a creamy, fluffy sweet fragrance, but unfortunately, on me, it becomes very synthetic w/ a sour milk accord. Don't blind buy.

Horrible. Very synthetic w/ a burnt plastic edge & doesn't get better. The blending is muddled; notes don't go together well. It's a mess

This is woody, very dry & linear on me. I don't find it reminiscent of paper. The longevity is middling-fair; intimate sillage. Unisex.

On Rating Fragrances

I think we all rate fragrances in a certain way, and for me, it's helpful to know how other folks rate fragrances. The following is my general method. SCENT: In one sense, I try to be objective. If I dislike a fragrance, I know it does not follow others will dislike it too, and as such, I tend...
