...@KathrynA66 although this is a BBW mist, it has impressive longevity + projection and is very salty/beachy (it does come in a perfume concentration if preferred - just as a mini size though). The bergamot seems to amplify the "salty" feel - it's one of my favorites with "salty" notes! 🌊🏖️At the Beach At The Beach Perfume Spray**Edit: I'm now realizing that I can't remember if it's the one above, or if I'm actually thinking of Saltwater Breeze Fragrance Mist Saltwater Breeze Eau de Parfum (which does come in a full-sized EDP!). I will do some digging and get back to you! 😃

...@Nsamiee great question! Because there are countless fragrance notes, kits for these are often broken down by theme - like educational kits from the Perfumer's Apprentice (I'm not affiliated with this brand/site, and have never tried their kits - but have seen them recommended on Reddit). You can also search for "perfume organs" to have a wider variety of size/set options.If there are specific notes you're unsure of, you can always order any single note fragrance oils you want to explore.

...Hi @Angie1111 , welcome to Parfumo 🤗 hope you're enjoying it here, I love Bath & Body Works too! 💖When you read Vanilla Coconut is coming back with different packaging, do you mean "Radiant Coconut and Vanilla" in the BBW Summer 2024 releases? I saw it has notes of coconut, tonka, and tuberose instead of coconut, vanilla and peach blossom that Vanilla Coconut has. Or did you see a different one?Even though they have different notes, I heard that Vanilla Coconut might be a repackage of an older mist, Whipped Vanilla Chiffon - but I haven't compared the two side by side. Have you tried that one? Here are some other vanilla cupcake/coconut-focused options: Vanilla Buttercream Confetti Cake Pop Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere Coconut Passion Fragrance Mist Lait de Coco Eau de Parfum Keep us posted if you find anything new that you enjoy, and good luck! 🤗 💖

...@Dssszzz this is my favorite topic, I love gourmands! 😄 💖Fragrance longevity:- Do you know if you're going "nose blind" while wearing? If a friend or family member can still smell your fragrance after a few hours even when you can't, then you'll know - Vaseline or body oil on your skin can help make the fragrance last longer; spraying on your clothes can also help- Some gourmand notes often don't project well (vanilla) or last as long as others do (lemon), so it's hard to make some of these notes last or feel stronger; layering with a body oil of the same fragrance type (i.e. vanilla perfume layered with vanilla body oil) can helpChocolate: Choco Musk Eau de Parfum , Chocolate Greedy , Over the Chocolate Shop Coffee: Coffee Addict , Replica - Coffee Break , French Coffee Bread: Crumb Couture , Fior di Pane , Panettone

...@Ashb12  if you have a picture, can you post the picture here of the fragrance you're looking for? That might help people who are viewing your post, to know how to help you better. Best of luck in your search!

...Thank you for explaining, I appreciate it!

...Hello! I submitted research to add the fragrance "Caramel Cascade" from the brand Paris Corner's "Taskeen" collection.It was rejected, and I was told the reason is that it is a "banned brand" - but Paris Corner Perfumes is not on the Parfumo Banned Brands list.I understand that some brands request to be included on the banned list, and some brands are banned from Parfumo's directory if the brand creates "dupes" of fragrances. Caramel Cascade has been compared by some fragrance reviewers as being similar to Bianco Latte , but:- it does not have the same fragrance notes as Bianco Latte- Paris Corner's website does not say it is inspired by Bianco Latte- this comparison or claim of it being a "dupe" of Bianco Latte, is purely from the opinion of fragrance enthusiastsI've also seen some brands who have a large presence in the Parfumo database, but who still have many "dupes" which are included in Parfumo's database - such as The Dua Brand, with one example being their Popped Cherry fragrance (dupe of Lost Cherry Eau de Parfum , but it is still in Parfumo's database).Could someone please help me understand better why:- some dupe brands are still allowed in the Parfumo directory (like The Dua Brand), while other dupe brands are not?- some submissions would be rejected for being a "banned brand", when the brand is not included on the Parfumo Banned Brands list?Thank you for your help! 🙂(Caramel Cascade research rejection: https://www.parfumo.com/fdb_n_... )

...Hi @Desro ! Since this is so subjective based on what each individual person feels, I think it all depends on which fragrances you enjoy most.I search for fragrances I'm interested in on Parfumo, and then see who is leaving reviews on these fragrances to know which accounts to follow.If you are looking for fragrance reviewers who do not focus on mainstream scents, I know that @NicheOnly reviews only niche fragrances, and writes high-quality reviews + blog articles - so you might enjoy following their account, to see what they are sharing in particular!Otherwise if you are interested in seeing the overall "top reviewers" on Perfumo, you can find them here: https://www.parfumo.com/Commun... Best of luck in your fragrance journey! 😊

...Hello, and welcome to Parfumo! 🙂 Hope you enjoy your time here. I have not smelled the fragrance you mentioned (Evidence by Yves Rocher) - but since you mentioned loving Earl Grey, here are some ways I try to find potentially similar fragrances.I go to Parfumo's "advanced search", and then I type in which notes I want to search fragrances for. The link I've included here will take you to the advanced search page, and already has "Earl Grey tea" added as a note for you to search fragrances by - so it will hopefully start to lead you in the direction of comparable fragrances you might be interested in.Another way I check for similar fragrances, is by going to the fragrance page I love (such as clicking here on Comme une Evidence Homme , in your case) and seeing what is listed under the "Similar" button below the fragrance notes. This is where users have voted on other fragrances, when they perceive them as being "similar" to the main fragrance.Wishing you the best in your journey to find another fragrance that you love!

...Gourmandgrl It's ok sweetheart, I've been very busy myself too. 🤗 I am sooooo happy you enjoyed my nails, dear friend, so honoured to hear such beautiful...

...through Parfumo? I hope you have a fantastic time seeing each other, and wishing you the very best in your journey together!! 🥰🙏💕@Gourmandgrl  Not snooping at all, in fact very nice of you to wish us happiness like that, thank you 😊, we have been very public about it after all in...

...Gourmandgrl Thank you so much my sweet friend! 🤗🥰 We are truly happy together. We did know each other from Fragrantica earlier but yes indeed it fully...

...OmnipotatoYou should try "17/17 - Symphonium | XerJoff". It smells like lightly orange-flavored chocolate. It does have a bit of vanilla sweetness, but it blends well with the woody oud in the drydown. It's probably my favorite gourmand fragrance.This sounds incredible, thank you for sharing - I'll definitely need to get my nose on it!

...Scent of the day: Pear Crème Brûlée - the custard + baked pear is so delicious and unique 🍐🍨💚 P.S. Not to snoop (hopefully I am not overstepping my bounds), but I just noticed the exchanges between you two @Lempi @Mitchcraft - I love seeing you both in love with each other!! So happy for you both 🥹💖 was this romance started through Parfumo? I hope you have a fantastic time seeing each other, and wishing you the very best in your journey together!! 🥰🙏💕

...@Lempi I'm so sorry I'm behind on responding to this! I thought I'd responded already 🙈Ahhhhhh congratulations on reaching your 100th perfume bottle-inspired nails!! What an amazing accomplishment 👏🥳🎉I love the white marble of that perfume bottle, and how it feels very wintery in matching up with your snowflake, winter-themed nails! You are so talented and creative 😍 it was also so fun for me to scroll through your Pinterest board with more of your unique perfume-inspired nail sets! I especially love your Violet & Amber Absolu look - the purple + goldenrod are an especially stunning combination, and your design is gorgeous!! 💜 🧡

...Have you tried Light Blue Eau Intense (even though it's not "pour Homme" it's very unisex, smells great on guys) or Light Blue pour Homme Eau Intense ? With it being citrus and more refreshing, it's a good option for warmer weather climates like Texas.

...so I promised to let @Gourmandgrl know when I'm celebrating my 100th perfume bottle inspired nails and that's today! 🥳💅🎉 All 100 nail designs can be found from my Pinterest...

...I happen to know that Santa will be bringing Vanille Eau de Parfum which is what I asked for - can't wait to open it and get to wear it! Such a fun question, I've enjoyed reading through everyone's responses too 🥰
