So, recently i have noticed some of my fragrances don't smell exactly as they should and was worrying i was getting COVID again but i don't seem to be unwell and that was a whole different roller-coaster ride of my ability to detect certain notes and fragrances smelling nothing like they should.
Recently it has more so been certain notes just not registering as they normally do. For example my favorite note in The Most Wanted Parfum is the bourbon vanilla but the last few times i have worn it the red ginger is more up front and the vanilla is very faint.
So i can only presume i am going nose blind to vanilla, which is not surprising as it is in a lot of my fragrances so i thought i would take a break either from fragrances that have vanilla in them or just a total break from fragrances for maybe a week, just to allow my nose some time without fragrances every day and hopefully get some of my favorite noted fragrances back smelling as they should be again because i read that citrus based fragrances can help with going nose blind but i noticed even my CK ONE is not exactly as it should be. Nothing as bad as when i had COVID, dear god it smelled awful lol but i am noticing other fragrances that usually were great with longevity are also fading pretty quick and i need a fresh spray way too soon compared to other times where they have still been present 12 hours later after a good nights sleep.
I just wondered if anyone else takes a little break and if so does it work? How long for? Etc.
