DogiCocoSixAmbregrisNinamariahHapax@Ninamariah If you select which fragrance you are currently wearing, this fragrance will automatically be added to the tested fragrances if it is not already there. You can use the Assistant to see which fragrances you have worn and how often. Click on your profile picture at the top right to find it. You can then click on „Tracker“ to see which fragrances you have worn often or rarely and can select a specific year or „Overall“ for the total.
Thank you so much @Hapax ! That I was thinking but it s seems that many are using that shelf for "Tested" ones not worn ones (of course it's basically the same thing). I want that I have separately tested perfumes of which I have made some kind of decision whether it's for me or not and I have some kind of picture of those scents. Tested are for me as well that kind of perfumes which I didn't like and have given the rest of the samples away. I don't want to mess my "worn" shelf with something which I didn't like at all and needed to scrub off.
As a side comment: I had been looking everywhere, including in the German forums, what the difference between the "Wishlist" and the "Watchlist" was, to use them "properly". And what I gathered overall, in the end, was that it was pretty much up to you do decide what to do with each!
I'd say we could also re-appropriate the "Tested" shelf, then - I don't know yet what I'll do with it, but in the meantime, I've been deleting the auto-added SOTD from it every time as I personally have no use for that.
And for all shelves, I find the option to add "Notes" to every perfume listed invaluable, it allows you to customize pretty much everything.
The intended use is:
Tested - everything you ever tested. Worn fragrances get added automatically because the algorithm assumes that you have tried something when you have worn it. It's a bit annoying for people who want to separate fragrances they merely tried and moved on from those they own.
Wishlist - I want to own it (like a birthday wishlist).
Watchlist - I want to sample it (or maybe in some cases also: I want to keep an eye on the reviews).
Of course everyone can decide what they want to do with their profile and use it differently, but that's how most people use it. You can always add custom collections to make it more clear or to separate different sub-groups. For example I have a huge collection of samples I currently own and don't want to move to "tested" yet because I feel like I don't know them well enough.
That's so useful, thanks! I'd been thinking of "watchlist" as a list of fragrances that I want to try when they come out, but which aren't out yet... This makes more sense!
(I'm also a new user, from the US, and have been interested in fragrance briefly in the past but am finally getting into it as a hobby. Looking forward to chronicling my adventures in nice-smelling things here!)
