What perfume have you bought recently?
by Exciter76 | Perfumes & Brands
...@Oriane wow, that's a big ol' YIKES! I know when I order off of eBay I'm rolling the proverbial dice. It doesn't stop me but you're absolutely right.Speaking of rolling the proverbial dice, I ordered a used bottle of #Guerlain With Love a few months ago from eBay. The price was good, and it's a less revered Guerlain I'd sampled long ago and enjoyed. I'm looking forward to using it as the weather warms up.

The chocolate fragrance?
by Exciter76 | Perfume Recommendations
...I fell head over heels in love with Olympic Orchids' take on chocolate: California Chocolate and Seattle Chocolate. Both are dark chocolates: California Chocolate has a nice, tart orange and Seattle Chocolate is a unique mix of inky dark green moss and dark chocolates. I crave both when I want a substantial chocolate fragrance.Amour de Cacao and Serendipitous are straightforward chocolate fragrances. If you want a very affordable option that satisfies, try Choco Musk Perfume Oil.

Why Is This Site So Quiet?

...With the exodus from *that other site*, I'm seeing a shift in the forum. You guys are definitely breathing new life into the place. That's something worth celebrating.

Best masculine rose fragrance
by Exciter76 | Perfume Recommendations
...I'm wearing Encens Mythique. It feels very versatile and unisex. I get hints of a dry rose, subtle oud, and something akin to dryer sheets. It's oddly clean and beautifully filthy, simultaneously. I'd love to smell this on a man.

...and in all honesty, when you first understand the language of Parfumo and the functions... it is MUCH better than Fragrantica! 🥰But welcome, Exciter76!...

EXILED! The stories from Defected Fragrantican Members
by Exciter76 | Parfumo Community
...StaciaSadly, I find myself still checking Fragrantica more often than I'd like, simply because there are perfumes I'd like to know about that have zero reviews here. And every time I find myself popping back over there I'm like UGH because the pages take forever to load (especially if you're on mobile... it'll just break the page instead of loading). Too many ads and shit crammed onto their pages. I wish I never had to go back but like I said, some perfumes just don't have any info here (yet). Welcome!It's a group effort that will take time but I'm certain Parfumo will surpass Fragrantica in number of reviews. I remember when Fragrantica had few to no reviews. I'm moving my reviews from there to here. If there's anything you've tried or something you own that's worth reviewing, please do! As an added bonus, there's no balloon system to erase your reviews AND there's an option to have direct interactions with people regarding your review. It's such a nice feature.

The messy of Mainstream/Niche and the Retro of Vintage frags

...Also, @ChillScent, your observations would be best suited in a blog post. You bring up many good points, but I don't know if you are looking to start a conversation or simply make a statement.

The messy of Mainstream/Niche and the Retro of Vintage frags
by Exciter76 | Perfume Discussions
...OmnipotatoI think what you call "messy" is a good problem to have. I'd rather have too many perfumes to choose from than too few. I'd much rather be a perfume hobbyist now than, for example, in the 70s or 80s, when the internet didn't exist and the entire universe of fragrances to choose from was restricted to what they had in stock at your local department store. We are IN the golden age of perfumery.This is such a great statement. I am so glad I'm a perfume enthusiast now, where any type of perfume is at my fingertips. I remember a time when all that was available was whatever was being sold locally. If I was lucky, a friend or family member would bring a perfume souvenir back from their travels, but that was rare.

Big Jasmine, Where Art Thou?
by Exciter76 | Perfumes by Note, Accord, Genre
...You know, I thought I put in my $0.02 but apparently I did not. Hmmm...I adore À la nuit. It smells like Southern California air on a summer's night. Everyone's jasmine bushes are in full bloom and it's so intoxicating. This really encapsulates that smell.Lust Perfume is an indolic jasmine bomb. It's very polarizing but I love how skanky it is.I recently picked up a rollerball of Flora Gorgeous Jasmine as gift for my aunt's birthday. I'd been disappointed at how absent the gardenia was in Flora Gorgeous Gardenia Eau de Parfum, at least to my nose. I wasn't it expecting Flora Gorgeous Jasmine to be such a lovely jasmine-dominant perfume. Now, if only Flora Gorgeous Gardenia Eau de Parfum had been as satisfying.

...Diddilybopelixir charnel gourmand coquin - guerlainYes, yes, absolutely yes. I heard a rumor that Guerlain is bringing this one back but as an exclusive. Can anyone confirm this? It's not like I have $1000s to spend on a bottle, but still, I could hit the lottery, right? 🤣

Scent of the Day
by Exciter76 | Perfumes & Brands
...GenghisM11Layering Hindu Kush with some Florida Water = Florida Kush😂 nice mix👌🏻I'd say you're today's winner of the internet! 🤣________________________________________________Today's scent: Far Away Aloha. I'm on the fence about this one. The drydown is divine but the opening is HARSH. I'm taken back to my 1990s high school's gym locker room, where girls are trying to cover up their b.o. with some sugary floral concoction they picked up from the local KMart. I was promised tropical florals but I'm not getting them, at least not anytime soon.
