Hot tyres / rubber smell - help!!!!! 0

I recently purchased a bottle of 1270 as it was glorious!!!!!

But now when I wear it, I get a strong smell of car tyres after a few minutes. It's ruining this gorgeous perfume for me as unfortunately it's long lasting!

I don't know if it's a reaction with my skin, or just an oddity of my nose, but I did a search of the forum and it is mentioned quite a few times about a variety of perfumes.

What ingredient or note would be causing this?

Gaiac wood may cause this. Take a break from the fragrance, try it again in a week or two. See if anything changes. Maybe, it's just your nose (or CoV!d)?

Thanks for the advice.

I will be taking a break because this morning I came out in a speckly red rash where I sprayed it. Looks like I'm also allergic to something in it.

Oh no! Hope you feel better soon! 🌸

Sometimes with a recent buy, the rubber smell subsides after a while. I've never noticed it with gaiac but I sometimes get that sort of impression from leather scents, and it has sometimes gone away with time.

The pulse points on my wrists and inside the elbows can be quite sensitive to strong concentrations. I get a rash there occasionally from powerful fragrances.

Hoping that for you the reaction isn't an actual allergy, but just skin sensitivity.

Good luck.

Be aware that the note pyramid is a marketing tool, best used to give you an idea what a fragrance is like. It is not necessarily an exhaustive list of all the notes the perfumer used in the fragrance.
