sis stacies83221 yung earthworm sis hindi naman amoy bulate :p amoy lupa lang :p hehe.. tumawad pa eh no?:P i actually like it kasi :p alam mo yung amoy ng ginseng? yung parang kabubunot palang sa lupa na amoy? medyo ganun lang ang amoy niya sakin eh. pero for those who find it disturbing, yung dirt by demeter din, mas light and mas medyo acceptable ang amoy niya ;) i have their crayon cologne as well :D amoy crayon talaga, yung waxy na amoy pencil case :p
i actually love demeter fragrances kasi yung mga cologne nila may nostalgic effect sakin :) minsan hinahalo ko rin sa mga perfume ko para mas maging interesting :) yung mildew ayoko na i-try baka sumpungin ng hika yung makakaamoy sakin :p hehe.. gusto ko yung cologne nila na amoy barnyard, gusto ko kasi i-compare sa miss dior originale kung ano ang mas amoy barnyard sa kanila :)

MsP sis okay lang yan ;) some people prefer buying clothes, others love makeup, yung iba food ang trip :) tayo perfume ;) if hobby lang naman siya, i don't think there is reason to feel guilty. ako i'm sure hobby lang siya cause i know i can live without my perfume. you can only call it an addiction if there is adverse dependency and bad consequences resulting from it. If bills are paid on time, and you have money saved, and give enough for those in need, i think it shouldn't be a problem that you love perfume. and if you really do feel guilty owning a lot of bottles, do swaps :) so you can experience as much perfume as you want without buying a full bottle each time ;)

i collect mostly difficult to find, vintage and discontinued fragrances. It is my ode to the geniuses who created them to preserve their creation :) and i don't feel any guilt in that :)

stacies83221 sa wakas napadala ko na rin sayo last saturday yung samples sis :p hehe.. i hope you like 'em ;) grabe, everyday palala ng palala ang pagiging groggy ko :p and i'm realizing na may mga scents nga akong ayaw ngayon, like mahora :p i haven't touched it in a month :p but medyo sharper nga ang nose ko ngayon, mas madali ako makarecognize ng notes :) minsan nga napipicture ko baka paglabas ng anak ko mala-grenouille :p hehe.. wag naman sana :p lol..

sis stacies83221 siguro dapat panghalo lang sa ibang notes yung secretions magnifique :p hehe.. pero for those na naamoy na ang lahat, and find recent offerings boring, intriguing siguro siya ;) oh, and i got my chocolate greedy na ;) hehe... hindi ko pa nga lang tinetest :D

Thanks sis rouged! :) yeah, im sure i will. Im not worried na it will smell something like secretions magnifique... Hehe nakakatuwa naman at heightened ang sense of smell mo... Im still struggling with some notes pero keri lang. :) im sure your baby will be the most beautiful baby youve ever seen. :)
Hmmm... Ill see if i can do layering with secretions magnifique... Im giving myself the time to appreciate it. Im sure na sensory overload lang ako nung first try ko kaya ganun ang effect sa akin... Im  gonna try it one more time but not now lang. True, it's more of the thrill of trying out something new and unique... Very intriguing talaga sya kaya i dont regret buying it.
nice! i hope you'll enjoy chocolate greedy! :)

sis stacies83221 yung earthworm sis hindi naman amoy bulate :p amoy lupa lang :p hehe.. tumawad pa eh no?:P i actually like it kasi :p alam mo yung amoy ng ginseng? yung parang kabubunot palang sa lupa na amoy? medyo ganun lang ang amoy niya sakin eh. pero for those who find it disturbing, yung dirt by demeter din, mas light and mas medyo acceptable ang amoy niya ;) i have their crayon cologne as well :D amoy crayon talaga, yung waxy na amoy pencil case :p

Naku sis, yung earthworm eh amoy bulate at lupa para sa akin. hehe :p pero nakakatuwa lang kasi di naman sya talaga ganun disturbing. Dirt is tolerable, tama ka. Demeter creates weird scents pero bilib ako kasi they make scents for you to enjoy a certain olfactory experience. Like Play-dough smells really like the clay we played with when we were kids, so as Egg nogs, pero i find it somewhat sweeter than the Eggnogs we grew up with... Naku sis, nung tinest ko yung Mildew, feeling ko kumapal yung lining ng throat ko. Haha anyway, masaya rin talaga na mag explore ng mga scents and odors na unusual.

Sis, sillage monster talaga yung Angel kaya spray sparingly. Natawa akonsa friend ko, kasi last night nag PJ party kami then, when we were gonna sleep... I sprayed TF Black Orchid (like, Angel, another sillage monster) once sa pillows nya. Pagpasok nya sa room, ayun, ubo ng ubo at feeling nya nagstuck yung scent sa throat nya. Tawa ako tawa sa reaction nya. The lesson of the story, not everyone enjoys the perfumes i prefer. pero I suuuuper love love love Black Orchid per se, but I have to be on the mood when i put it on. :p

stacies83221 and rouged n perfumed, thanks mga sis :)

hehe. Yeah, kanya kanyang taste lang yan. I dont want to smell like vajay-jay either. I have Angel and  Womanity... And may mga weird notes talaga sila like sis Rouged n Perfumed pointed out, but it is something that makes them stand out...mga avant garde perfumes sila, imo. Not everyone can pull them off nor like them. :)

preciosa thank you sis! :D at tama ka dun amoy kinder at elementary days yung crayon na cologne :D i love it for that :) at may pang partner ako dun ;) hehe.. yung John Galliano Parlez-Moi d'Amour amoy stationery naman siya :D kino-collect ko yan nung bata pa ko eh so nung naamoy ko yan para akong nagtime travel ;)

mischa04 hehe.. sa perfume naman kasi sis maraming notes eh so unless i-single out mo yung weird na scent, pag halo halo na siya, hindi mo na minsan mapapansin ;) unless demeter yan kasi sa kanila pag sinabing amoy lupa, amoy lupa talaga :p hehe... like yung barnyard na fragrance nila, amoy barnyard talaga, kasama pati yung animals sa loob :p hehe.. pero yung miss dior originale, first whiff lang yung barnyard note then it settles to something woody, so wearable pa rin naman :)

ay, naalala ko pa nung first time kong ini-spray yung earthworm tapos naamoy ni hubby, ang bilis ng pasok sa room, sabay sabi, "ano yun? parang kagagaling lang sa hukay" hehe.. pero pag nakahalo na siya sa ibang pabango ko hindi na niya napapansin :P parang yung kingdom, nung una niyang naamoy, super excited pa ako when i got my first bottle, ang sabi ba naman sakin, natatakot daw siya sa amoy, amoy nitso daw :p hehe.. pero when i go out na gamit yun, di naman niya napapansin :p may isa pa, yung annick goutal mandragore pourpre nirecommend ng isang friend ko kasi amoy witch daw, and boy was he right, amoy witch nga :p

stacies83221 sis, sobrang thank you sa recommendation ng chocolate greedy, im really looking for an orange-y chocolate fragrance and this fits the bill perfectly :) i was about to give in na nga sa bagong jo malone kaso nanghihinayang ako sa pera kasi cologne concentration lang siya, for the price, not worth it eh :p now ang problema ko nalang kung paano makakakuha ng full bottle dito satin :p hehe..

Rouged n perfumed, glad you liked it. :) sa luckyscent ka makakabili ng FB ng chocolate Greedy Bought mine there. :) Tignan ko kung may mahanap pa ako na iba, try mo rin sa allaVioletta.com or sa ebay. Ako puro samples/decants lang Jo Malone ko kasi di nga worth it bumili dahil sa poor longevity. Im currently exploring Frederic Malle,  Byredo and Neotantric. Sa FM, i liked Une Rose, Portrait of a Lady and Musc Ravageur. Carnal Flower is very strong for me, headache-inducing initially.. explosive yung green notes and tuberose. But after a while...Naging parang milky coconut sya na may hint ng eucalyptus and white flowers.  This will be on my a-list perfumes. Love it. :)

^amongst all those, yung musc ravageur lang ang hindi ko masyado type sis. hindi lang siguro talaga ako musk lover :) the best sakin yung une rose kasi may truffle note kahit masyadong green yung rose ;) and yung portrait of a lady kasi smoky :) try mo din yung bigarade concentree sis and en passant. they're simple creations pero very pleasant :)
worry ko kasi shipping eh baka doble bayaran ko pagdating sa post office :p ang daming nightmare sa pagclaim ng packages sa postal office, alam mo naman dito, madaming corrupt :) buti kung dito didiretso sa bahay, okay lang siguro :) if ever, i might ask my sis na isama nalang niya sa susunod niyang package :) i still have my sample vial anyway so makakawait pa naman :p hehe..

mixxy16 sis kaamoy ba siya nung daphne home scent na mint jasmine infusion? i like that one eh kaso home fragrance siya :)

Sis rouged, i love musk! I am drawn to animalic notes recently, like ambregris, musk, leather, honey, caviar, beeswax lately. Ewan ko ba... Hehe among the 4 i mentioned i liked Une Rose best, second yung Portrait. i tried also yung bigarade but di ko sya masyado type. Yung En passant out of stock nung pumunta ako sa scent heaven.
Yeah, Yun lang talaga ang problem jan sa atin... Pero dito rin when i buy perfumes online outside Norway, I pay a good deal of amount para sa customs and may VAT pa. So if i purchase goods amounting to lets say for example 150USD, i pay around 70USD for tax and customs fees. So yeah, just wait na lang for the box. im sure mas marami ka pang mabibili na perfumes dun sa pera na gagamitin mo na pambayad sa customs. :)

Sis Suluna, what fragrances are you into? I mean give us examples of what you usually wear so i can think of perfumes that i can recommend. Also, are you into fruity, florals, aquatic, citrus, etc. Scents?

Preciosa, are you a member sa fragrantica.com? We have our perfume wardrobes there. :)

Sis Suluna, mukhang you are into floral fruity scents, lalo na yung may citrus notes. These are just my suggestions pero of course it will still depend on your body chem and preference at the end of the day. Have you tried these?


Chanel Chance - this is not exactly a fruity floral perfume, but has citrus, floral, musky notes on it. It has a quite strong opening with the patchouli and citrus notes. But mellows down into soft/creamy, semi sweet floral- citrus concoction. Chance and coco mademoiselleare are similiar, often compared, but CM is more stronger on the drydown. Chance has stronger opening but becomes softer afterwards.
Chanel Coco Mademoiselle on the otherhand, is sweeter than Chance. I get a hint of Bubble gum note. :) pero it is just me. there is also a nice rose note combined with the citrus, patchouli, musk, etc. Kaya i prefer this over Chance. Plus I am a sucker for perfumes with strong sillage and personality. Chance IMO is milder and safer  to wear. Between Chance and CM, i feel that CM is more elegant/sophisticated-smelling given the right body chem.
Armani Code for women -  this is a floral scent. But i think it is floral fruity because of the orange note. This is one of my go-to evening formal fragrances because i love the cominabtion of orange, honey and white flowers, it makes me sensual and sexy. The sillage is quite strong so if you are dont want to attract attention, this might not be for you.
Amyris by Maison Francis Kurkdjian - a sparkling floral perfume. Great for spring/ summer, because of the lemon-citrus combo with the flowers. Very easy to wear both for evening and day events. Hindi sya matapang from start to drydown.  Soft and girly. The price for a bottle is a major deterrent. A cheaper alternative can be Ellie Saab's le Parfum.
Paco Rabanne Black XS - a wild card i just picked which you might like. This is warmer, spicier and bolder than the rest Ive listed above. Definitely not a floral fruity... more of a cherry-cacoa-vanilla blend sya. It is sweet, kaso Baka mabigla ka at masuya ka kasi it might be too sugary for your taste. This might be appropriate for a night out and dates, or if you want to exude a classy and mysterious aura. :) Not formal, but can be.. i just thought you should try something different. :)
Tom Ford Black Orchid - another wild card.  Be warned, this perfume is STRONG so spray only once. Pero very longl-lasting talaga sya. It is chocolatey, na may creamy coconut and may whifs ng citrus and incense. It is very unique because of the heaviness and despite the many notes, there is a very nice cohesion there. A fave of mine and I only wear this for special occasions and black-tie events.
Fan di Fendi - not a a candy sweet fruity perfume... It smells bright tangerine and pear with a dark twist because of the leather. Leather is not something msot women would not prefer but this one works with the tangerine and rose notes. It is well blended and the drydown is soft and powdery. I also like this one because of the rose note, plus it is not a girly girl scent.


I'll think of more. :) hope this helps.

sis Suluna, may I add three more...

Narciso Rodriguez for her - Let me say first na the reason that I recommend this is because I am a big fan of Maison Francis Kurkdjian and that you have one musk perfume on your list. Another inoffensive, pleasant  yet interesting fragrance. There is no sweetness...  but this is a perfume that exemplifies that sugary note isn´t necessary to make a scent comforting.  When sprayed on, I get a faint aroma then develops on your skin and becomes recognisable... para syang woodsy- floral laying on a musky base. Close to skin lang sya but the longevity is good. A good sensual, feminine and sophisticated perfume.
Guerlain Idylle - This is similar to NR. Delicate, sensual and inoffensive. The difference is that while NR is muskier and heavier, Idylle has more flowers in it. Quite rosy yung amoy, pero this is not a rose scent. It just starts a bit sharp flowery but tames down quickly.

La Vie est Belle by Lancome - let me also add this... A Fruity Floral with pralines! :) If you´ve tried Viktor& Rolf´s Flowerbomb, this is her twin sister, but less of a sweet-tooth by one or two notches. :) I can´t help but think about cotton candy when I smell this one. :) Softer yung pagiging sweet nya pero dahil sa pralines, parang may menthol kang maamoy. It has a strong projection kaya hinay sa pagspray. Lasts long on the skin too. :)

Anyway, I hope you´ll find  the scent you are looking for. :) Again, when it comes to perfumes, it is highly subjective. Not all that I´ve recommended will actually smell good for you... basta give the perfumes sometime to dry and settle on your skin and then make the decision. Dont let the top notes discourage you, unless na linear (not changing) yung amoy from beginning to end. Good Luck!

Sisses stacies and rouged thanks noses nyo! I appreciate your replies.

You´re welcome sis MsP. :) You have a nice lineup of perfumes na nabanggit mo sa previous post mo. Kaya just enjoy the ride. :) Sis rouged is right, as long as the bills are paid on time and priorities are set straight, it´s ok to indulge on perfumes. :)

On the side note: Napansin ko na madaming may gusto ng Eclat d´arpege. Maski yung mga previous threads, madalas ito namemention as a fave. Hmmmm, I wonder if it there is a certain age bracket that prefers this perfume?
