EXILED! The stories from Defected Fragrantican Members
by VieilleDame1 | Parfumo Community
...ProudwingI haven't had any horrible experiences myself as I never really talked to anyone. (I've heard of the rampant homophobia and transphobia though, yikes.) The main reason I left is that the UI here is so much cleaner and more intuitive. It feels like the 90's on Fragrantica and not in a good way. The fact that the owners are anti-vaxxers is another nail in the coffin.Hi Proudwing, I’ve always thought the same thing about Fragrantica’s UI! It’s so wonky and user-unfriendly (likely done on purpose no doubt). And yeah, the whole anti-vax, anti-climate crisis had long been huge turn-offs for me. The hate speech towards the LGBTQ+ community and allies was my final nail in the coffin.

...ArcencielMeadhbhJust left due to an article about a Pride perfume blowing up with some really awful commentsSame here! (formerly curiouscats) It looks like there are quite a few of us. Hopefully there are many more to come!My comments supporting Patric and other LGBTQ+ folks kept getting deleted by the mods. Yet the despicable vitriol kept getting posted. Unfortunately for Patric, they took down his article sometime this morning.If it wasn't for TranceNdendalist over there mentioning Parfumo in a comment in the Pride article, I would've never known to come here.I'm still in the process of transferring everything over but I already prefer Parfumo's interface. Parfumo seems like a much more welcoming place too. I'm happy to see Non-Binary as a Gender option. AND there's explicit anti-discrimination language in the Community Rules specifically including sexuality and gender.Hi Arcenciel! I am glad to see you here! Like you, I'm pleased to see the non-binary option here. As a straight cisgender woman I was sickened by the comments under Patric's wonderful article. My downvotes for all the hate speech kept getting removed. I've only been on Parfumo a few days and already really like it here! 🥰

...ModernistaHi, I'm an escapee, too, but following the horrors of abuse fellow human brings are being subjected to, it was more than time to go.  My user name 'over there' is/was Lady of Wahey.  Glad to see several others on here I recognise.  Bear with me as I've not added any of my wardrobe yet.  Over and out for now!  Hi Modernista (Lady of Wahey)!Great to see you've made the move over! Hope All is well! I've got my collection up and a photo album and look forward to seeing yours again soon. It already feels really good to be here in a more welcoming community. I'm still learning to navigate the site, but it's very enjoyable.See you soon! 😊VieilleDame1 (formerly El Capitan)

complimentition - notable unsolicited frag compliments 😃
by VieilleDame1 | Perfume Discussions
...I'm 61 years old and in all my life thus far, I've never received a comment from anyone about the perfume I'm wearing. And I wouldn't call myself a light sprayer. I figure at 61 and a woman (short and fat), I've become pretty invisible to most of society, so that tells me I can wear whatever I want and as much as I want. Liberating! 😁

Best Rose Perfumes ?
by VieilleDame1 | Perfume Discussions
...For the price and quality, I love Tea Rose by Perfumer's Workshop. It packs a punch with (to me) such a realistic rose scent and it has solid longevity. And for years I've also loved Ombre Rose, which I have in L'Original EDT and a vintage parfum in the black opaque bottle). I am attached to powdery scents (powder power!). I have 4ml sample of Guerlain Rose Cherie, which is touched with a bit of violet and since I'm currently going through a violet craze, I find Rose Cherie my cup of (rose) tea. ❤️🌹

Fragrances your parents wore
by VieilleDame1 | Perfume Discussions
...When I was a child, my now 90 year old mother wore Madame Rochas and Ma Griffe (1960s-'80s/'90s). For several years, she's been wearing Lancôme Miracle. About a year ago, I gifted her a vintage MR edt and a vintage MG edc. She still keeps wearing Miracle (me no likey!) and when I remind her that she has the MR and MG, she tells me she wants to finish off the bottle of Miracle. I let her know that she's not getting any younger 😅 and to wear some of the MR or MG before it's too late...(You're 90 mom!).

What are your worst performing fragrances?
by VieilleDame1 | Perfumes & Brands
...I've recently been getting into violet fragrances and have purchased Yardley April Violets (old version), Violettes de Toulouse, and Violetas Francesas. The Yardley is the only that lasts beyond about an hour and even it barely gets past that one-hour mark. But they all smell so lovely that I don't really mind. They're all nice to wear just after a shower. For a big, strong violet I'll usually wear Insolence (old version in flying saucer bottle).

...I have also defected from the morass that is Fragrantica after the recent hate-filled comment thread following a perfectly lovely article by Patric Rhys. I'm happy to be here in a fragrance community that respects and welcomes all members of every persuasion.
