Say hello and/or introduce yourself (if you like)

Haha, you ain't kidding! In the past couple of months, I'm shocked by how much I've spent. Love it

Hi guys . I'm new to this forum. I've been collecting for many years, more seriously in the last couple. My favorite perfumes are gourmands, but I also like candied patchouli's and fresh/clean scents. I am hard core! I know what I love and I want more, more, more!!

Hi everybody from Spain,

I'm a man in his thirties who really likes perfumes. During the last months I've spent much money buying some perfumes for men, some of which I haven't liked much. That was before I discovered I could buy samples online, which is really the way to go to try any perfume without losing all your money. Hahaha!

Hello everybody!

I'm a student (about to graduate this spring) from Finland and alongside my studies I do some software / application development.

I became more interested in perfumes in August 2012 when I started searching for a new bottle of perfume after I had used up one that was gifted to me. At that time I realized there're so many choices that there's no way I could limit myself to just one perfume.

Other things I really enjoy are nail polish, video games and cats.

Welcome CakeCuddles, Jumbotron and Lah2o!

Hello from another Finnish user! I've been on Parfumo for a few months but I haven't really introduced myself yet. I'm 28, university student slash bench jeweller, and fan of cute dogs and hot men. I started on the perfume trail in September 2013 and have been sampling and sniffing voraciously ever since. It will take a while before I calm down I occasionally write a perfume blog in Finnish, and update frequently here on Parfumo. I'm really glad to be a part of this community!

Hi Sweetgrass! It's good to have you here. Enjoy the fragrance journey.

Hi parfumo just registered and already wrote a few reviews. Simply put it's nice to have options! Thanks for the informative site, kind regards.

Hi, I'm Veronica. I'm finishing up some coursework for a degree in computer programming and database management. Good fun geeky stuff!

I've loved perfumes for as long as I can remember. I'm glad to have found others like me.

Waving to you Exciter76.

Hi Veronica and welcome!

Welcome Veronica! We like hanging out with you too.

Just saying hi!

My name is Dave, a 27 year old multimedia design student who has had a love for fragrance forever, but who has only discovered the deeper nature of fragrance about a year ago.

I've come over from Fragrantica and I have to say this site will take some getting used to, but I already see several features that are still missing in my "other" fragrance community.

It's nice to see some familiar faces around here!

Hi Dave, waving to you from coastal South Carolina. Hope you enjoy Parfumo.

Thank you! Right now it's a huge task getting my fragrance wardrobe organized, hehe.

Hullo, Deefit!

The conversation isn't as...fast paced as Fragrantica, but I like the features here to keep my collection organized. Enjoy your stay.

Hello, Parfumo

I'm Jamie, a formerly globe-trotting electrical engineer turned novelist. How's that for a one-eighty in career? Since September I've also been a perfumista and can't go a day without sniffing a new fragrance. At last, a happy use for my hyper-reactive nose which previously only disabled me at the slightest whiff of bad chemicals or bacteria. [I actually could be used as a human canary.]

First of all, let me congratulate you on your terrific database which allows such easy setup of a collection. It’s already helped me, a sample fiend, avoid rebuys.

To learn notes and identify new loves, I like to plunge into a house or genre with the help of my trusty perfumery kit and try to name what my nose detects. Already I've learned a lot, but still have a long way to go, so I really welcome comments from those who know their way around this subject.

Don't be surprised if a fictional character speaks up in one of my sniff-fests. Mini-stories often seem to pop up when I write about perfume.

ScentSir is my hubby, but he’s not much of a talker. After multiple vials were put under his nose [in "OMG, you’ve got to smell this!" fashion], he became a perfumisto. Now I get to smell Nasomattos, Norne, Bois d’Ascese and such on him. Heaven!

Nice to find you.

Hi Jamie, welcome to Parfumo. Novelist : Hope to read you soon

Hi, cincy. Thanks for the welcome. I write thrillers of the Da Vinci Code variety, except lots more characterization. Will message you a link.

Hey you!

Yes, I've noticed. But I don't mind contributing to the forum to make it more lively. But just like you, there are lots of interesting features. Especially the souks are really a welcome addition. Making it a lot easier to see who exactly has what for swap or sale. And who is looking for something. Very functional!

See you around!

Hi there, welcome Esoada. Start posting and you won't be new anymore.

Hello, Esoada. I'm pretty new, too. As you'll see, parfumo has wonderful features, especially its vast database of perfumes.
