The perfect vanilla (for me)
...My boyfriend wears GoddessGoddess and despite the composition being very simple, I think it’s a really glowing vanilla, well supported by the lavender.The chord of iris-vanilla in Shalimar MillĂ©sime IrisShalimar MillĂ©sime Iris is really beautiful, too. It’s not niche territory at all, but I find these very pleasant to have around.

Fresh , Green Parfum for men ?
...JSO60H24 Herbes VivesH24 Herbes Vives . This new fragrance is very green, fresh. When it gets to the base note, Physcool, it should also be cooling. The weather was a little too cool where I was to notice that.I also have Herbes Vives, I agree it's a perfect match for green freshie! On reddit I also suggested it to people looking for scents that give "futuristic" vibes. The picture I get with this one is like smelling a blade after it has sliced a juicy pear.

Say hello and/or introduce yourself (if you like)
by Riviael | Parfumo Community
...Hi everyone!I'm from France, Normandie which is a lovely region. I go by he/they pronouns.I've become really interested in fragrances last year during a trip to Frankfurt. I saw a Diptyque stand in a shop there, which is a brand I had never encountered. My first fragrance love was Phylosykos, it was the first time I encountered a fragrance that much different from the ones you buy at regular shops. Very realistic and I was so transported ❀Didn't buy it because Diptyque bottles are pricy, only bought the bottle last November but the scent kept in my head all that time!Before that I never was interested in perfume beyond having a bottle at hand for special occasions.I care a lot about gender roles, and so about gender labelling of perfumes. I think they are restrictive and often serving the narrative of gender roles in society (always cringed at the marketing). I'm happy to find perfumes that blur the lines despite keeping a marketed gender!You can see in my collection that I purchased more after finding Phylosykos! I'm in a phase where I'd like to explore as broad as possible the spectrum of notes and scent profiles, and enjoy the process of getting to know the classics and discovering new types to love!As for presence in the forums, I always have been a lurker but I may get my head out once in a while if the topic piques me!
