... Very strange: The writing on the bottle looks like the writing on the boxes and bottles for "S (Eau de Parfum) | Escada" but this bottle looks entirely different than the bottles one can find on the Internet. This bottle looks more masculine, but as far as I can see there wasn't a men's edition of this perfume...Any way: the perfume S was released in 2007 so not even that old.

Favorite Perfume Names

Ringtale | Perfume Discussions

... I have an additional question: Do these names above also smell like the names suggest ?? I find many of the above names beautyful and very inviting, but...do you feel as though they also smell like the name suggests (and maybe which one and why). I have "Mitsouko (Eau de Parfum) | Guerlain" for instance and it really smells like it illustrates the name and story behind it, same goes for "L'Air du Temps (Eau de Parfum) | Nina Ricci". Oh and "Fleur de Peau (Eau de Parfum) | Diptyque" ofcourse :-)

Are you being followed?!

Ringtale | Parfumo Community

... Wusubi Ringtale What would be their goal I wonder? 1) Hack an older, inactive account 2) Pump it with copy-pasted reviews, statements, add some wall posts from other hacked accounts 3) Give awards to these reviews with botted accounts 4) Once you finally appear trustworthy, you can start scamming people on souk There’s been an influx of such cases. Parfumo team is doing their best to keep the botters at bay. Oh dear!! Must be very pittyful people then!

Goutal Heure Exquise versus Chanel 19?

Ringtale | Perfumes & Brands

... Jomas @Ringtale, you're welcome! 😊 Yes, the bitterness is stronger to me in "Heure Exquise | Goutal" than in "N°19 (Eau de Parfum) | Chanel", and the Goutal starts off stronger and darker, with a quite animalic touch. I find Chanel to be a tad creamier, whereas Heure Exquise is more vegetal. I never thought of any of them as being a dry perfume, now that you mention it, maybe No19 is a bit drier because the iris appears to be kind of paper-y, which is not the case for me in Heure Exquise. If you feel that No19 is strict, I guess you will feel the same way about the Goutal. The drydown of Heure Exquise is absolutely beautiful, dispite the persisting bitterness. There is also some sweetness there, I guess there is some vanilla, because I notice the liquid becoming darker as time goes by. Thanks again @Jomas I think it is risky for me then. For instance: I love the opening of "Azurēe (2015) | Estēe Lauder" (completely different scent profile but just for reference), but the bitter drydown often spoils it for me, so I'm probably very sensitive to 'bitter'...On the other hand, I don't like very sweet scents either. I guess I should sample first...:-)

... Raluko111 Ringtale Most fake accounts show up in the weekends or when Don is away (he told us once if I remember it well). Then the whole forum often gets invaded with fake accounts (always saying 'new user') posting messages containing links (spam!). Very annoying ! You mean those weird links and posts that show up in Forum? Those are certainly annoying, but the accounts I`m referring to don`t appear as `New User.` Yes, I mean those. as for other possible fake accounts, I never noticed, but I think I don't use the site that thoroughly maybe. What would be their goal I wonder?

What's your "hit rate" with samples (or blind buys)?

Ringtale | Perfume Discussions

... Notes alone don't tell me anything really. Except maybe the ones I really dislike (like vanilla) or love (like Iris and carnation), but even those, when more or less well blended, can sometimes surprise me positively or negatively. For me it is all about the blend and about the scent profile: I skip 'gourmand' for instance. Like you, I read as many reviews as I can and, also here, I don't need to read about which notes come first or later etc. I like reviews that give me an impression of the scent asif it is a painting of the perfume :-). I hate it when people are telling which celeb they associate with a perfume by the way, most of them I can't relate to, so then I tend to bow out. Often happens with chypres and characters from Dallas or Dynasty, lol. With time I get to know the taste of some people on this platform, so I also often check out their ratings when they seem to have a similar taste as me. Then, when I'm wise, I may sample or - when being impatiënt, greedy or less wise - I blind buy (seldom a succes.. :-( )

Goutal Heure Exquise versus Chanel 19?

Ringtale | Perfumes & Brands

... Oh thanks @Jomas! that's so sweet of you to spray both perfumes to give me an impression 🥰! And thanks @Raluko111 for your comment🥰! So Heure Exquise is even more bitter than No19? Oh I don't know then..I love Galbanum but it can become too bitter on my skin..For reference: I love Galbanum the way it is done in "Miss Dior (Eau de Toilette Originale) | Dior" (very different from the pink colored flankers!) where it is lifted by the carnation maybe and where I sense a slight sweet 'tingle' (don't know how to put it otherwise). I find No 19 quite dry and a bit 'strickt' is Heure Exquise also dry and 'strickt'?

Goutal Heure Exquise versus Chanel 19?

Ringtale | Perfumes & Brands

... Hi, hope anyone can tell me a bit more about the differences between "N°19 (Eau de Parfum) | Chanel" and "Heure Exquise | Goutal" They are being compared often. I have Chanel 19 and love it but I would like it a bit more feminine/romantic maybe without it being too opulent or 80's style. Would Heure exquise be something I might like then?

... PerfumeL0v3r Raluko111 I get this creepy feeling that the more reviews one writes, the more it seems like the number of followers increases and it's not all of it real. Who are these 23 people following me? A few, 3 or 4 I know, and they are friends I knew from before Parfumo, a few others are folks I met on here, but I wonder how "real" the rest of the followers are. Anyone else feel that? In these days of bots and fake, AI generated content, I tend to prize authenticity above all else. I just have one follower 🤷‍♀️ Don't know if it helps @PerfumeL0v3r, but I often read your threads and visit your profile to see if there is a new Guerlain in your collection 😀 so not following you doesn't mean 'not interested' 😉.

Ringtale | Parfumo Community

... Gourmandgrl @Ringtale here’s how you follow someone (screenshots)! You have to opt in, Parfumo doesn’t subscribe you to someone involuntarily. I personally like that follow lists are private; I might be less inclined to follow others if this were visible, simply because I don’t want to seem creepy by following someone I don’t really know/talk to regularly. 😅 I follow people I interact with - but also follow tons of other people only because I enjoy reading their stuff, and don’t want to forget how to find them. Thanks Gourmandgrl, although I probably won't use it. I just check out reviews of those who write about perfumes, giving me the impression they have a taste I can relate to and see their collection sometimes to see if there's anything worth while checking out etc. It's fun enough that way :-). It also doesn't appeal to me that, when there is a new follower, you get 'congrats' asif being followed is a merit...I write reviews hoping to inform others, not to 'gain' followers :-) I also like the 'helpful' comment though because it makes me more mindful about what kind of reviews really are informative.

Are you being followed?!

Ringtale | Parfumo Community

... I really don't know how this works, I have only 11 followers and I wrote quite some reviews. I can't see who these followers are either which is why I don't follow someone else (because what's the use if someone doesn't know or can't see that I'm following her/him and it feels sort of 'secretly' also that way). Is there a way you can see who is following you?? Not that I mind, I just don't know what it means :-). Edit: I Just looked through the website and I also can't see which action one can take to follow someone else so maybe it just happens when you look at someones homepage more often (?) I sometimes do that when someone seems to have same preferences and such. Could it be that I then get 'registerered' as 'a follower' of that person?? So without knowing?

Leaving reviews

Ringtale | Parfumo Community

...When you are on the page for the perfume, under the notes pyramid you will see ratings for scent, sillage, longevity, bottle and value for money. Then, under that, there is a space, sometimes mentioning 'interesting facts' and under that you see little Icons for subscribtion, collection, rating, review (click that one for reviewing) and statement (click that one for statement) etc. A field will be shown in which you can write your review and/or statement when you click those. Hope this helps.

... For the late afternoon when attending a farwell-party for a co-worker (in the warmth of a heatwave here in Holland) I changed to "Givenchy III (2007) | Givenchy" also one of my favourites. I just checked Givenchy's website and saw Orris listed as a note. (unlike the notes listed here) I now understand even better why this is a love :-) Orris/Irisses seem to be one of my favourite notes. Have a lovely evening
