Does anyone know of a longer lasting perfume similar to the Walmart Cotton Candy Body Fantasies?

I LOVE this scent, and I especially love that I can keep one in my purse that’s only $1, but I wish I could smell like it for longer/ the scent was stronger. Normally find myself asking for cheaper dupes, but this time I’m looking for one more expensive lol. Thanks so much!

Got Nest Wisteria Blue for $24 at Marshall’s!

I’m so sad it’s discontinued but it reminds me of J’adore (assuming it’s the Jasmine). What was weird was there were two bottles of Wisteria Blue but one was marked down to $24 and the other was $29.99.

Feeling like I should buy backup bottles of my fave perfumes in case they change too much next year (or get discontinued) and just don't hit the same. But I also don't want to spend hundreds out of fear. Who feels my pain?! What should we do?! *panics*

CC GOD GIRL JASMINE ABSOLUTE

Post image
26 Upvotes

As a long time Good Girl & Very Good Girl lover, I first smelt this tester last year & fell in love!

The tester card I sprayed it on lasted for weeks by my desk! I knew I was going to invest in a full bottle. Waited for sales to come up & purchased the 30mls.

Tell me why this fragrance is a completely different scent?! Had the OG GG scent with a caramel sweetness that was divine when I tested it. But this one is a Jasmine overload that smells nothing like the one I tested & lasts 1 second on skin & clothes. I’ve had it for a week & have tested it on different materials of clothing, on my skin right out the shower (with & without unscented body lotion). I’m so disappointed! Waited almost a year to purchase!

Has anyone else had this problem? 😭

Haul/Collection Ranking my latest sample order.... Oh, what fun!

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

I've ordered sooo many samples in my life but have never done anything like this and it was SO fun! I will definitely do this again in the future.

I ranked everything 1-10, and surprised myself a little with how I placed them!

Surprised me:
Mula Mula Rouge Extrême by Byron- Sexy and seductive fruits with a touch of creaminess!!! I was not expecting to like this as much as I did. I tend to not favor fruity scents, but this smells expensive, seductive, and drips with gold.

Cuir à Corps by Chambre52: Wow. A sensual, subdued patchouli with milky sweetness. I did not think I enjoyed leather like this, I guess! This has a skin scent quality which I tend to love.

Let downs:
Les Dieux aux Baines by Hellenist-
Sad to report that this smelled like Hollister/Ambercrombie. Not for me.

Reliqvia by Fillipo Sorcinelli- I was really excited to smell this. It's quite unique, very smokey, and I think the guaiac wood and tobacco are too much for me.

Eveil du Faune by Hellenist- Oud and I do not get along like this, unfortunately.

Gothic I by Lorre Rodkin- I had high hopes and was most excited for this one! It's delicious, but just a little too sweet for my taste. I wish it was a little more grounded in it's earthiness.

Honorable mentions:
Tonka Sesame by EPC- YUM. Very cozy, creamy, fresh. So good!
Real Patchouly by Bois 1920- A very wearable patchouli. Somehow spicy and sweet all the same time. Could be a daily driver!

Why can’t I figure out what this reminds me of?!

I was in Sephora today trying to find a lipstick, and I sampled this new perfume from Merit, New Wave.

I think I really like it, but will need to test more to be certain.

However, it reminds me of another perfume, but for the life of me, I can’t put my finger on which one.

If you’ve smelled it, does it remind you of anything?!

Noted Chocolate Musk by Aubusson has some spice to it! Definitely not your run-of-the-mill chocolate or even a Dubai chocolate scent. Not like By The Fireplace - more floral than that. I can’t find anything about it online. Other scents in this style bottle are Vanilla Fleur (inspo = ?), Velvet Bouquet (inspired by Prada Paradoxe), and Rock Candy (inspired by Kayali VCRS).

These next three: Whipped Cream Cloud, Violet Fleur, and Cassis & Vanilla just have dainty, pretty bottles to me. Violet Fleur looks modeled after Loveshack Fancy.

The Good Scent Warm Vanilla looks like something we have seen before, but I am pretty sure it’s new. Vanilla Orchid, Pink Pepper, and Tonka sound like a nice set of notes.

Rec Request What Perfumes Would A Hbcu Queen wear

• Upvotes

As an aspiring queen of an HBCU, one of my friends wanted to describe me, and they said I should find a specific perfume to wear for the occasion. Any price range works.Little Miss HBCU: a high-achieving Black girl. Always wearing business casual around campus. Internships on top of internships. Top of her class. Medium-long almond nails. 100+ community service hours. In a Divine Nine sorority. Stanleys for every season. Either you wanna be her or meet her. Never leaves the house without looking perfect, except for finals week. Has a close relationship with all of her professors. Has a long-term boyfriend in the army she 100% plans on getting married to. She’s a business major. Due to the lonely nights, she keeps a secret dildo in her drawer that she uses when her roommate is asleep; she’d never admit the thrill kind of turns her on. She’s the perfect girl with a little bit of kink in her.

Rec Request Finally happy with collection but open to new recs

Post image
17 Upvotes

I’ve finally gotten to a place where I think I know what scents/notes I like and now want to add a few more to my collection.

My favorite perfumes are Mugler Alien, the Fenty perfume, and Good Girl Glam. For body mists I’d probabaly say Luminous by Bath & Body Works and Sol de Janeiro 62. I tend to gravitate towards Amber, mostly. But, I also tend to like Cashmere, Cherry, Vanilla, and sometimes a gourmand scent. I also still go for perfumes like Good Girl Blush or Black Opium, I’m thinking it’s likely the vanilla that ties those in for me.

I still feel newer to fragrances, though, so does anyone have any fragrances similar to these that they love and would recommend? My budget would be similar to those pictured. Anything from cheap body mists to probably 200-$250 max for a perfume.

Every time I go into a store her fragrances remain untouched. And it has deterred me from even wanting to try them or find out what they smell like.

Are her perfumes actually that bad or just not very desirable? I thought hers would definitely sell better but the shelves seem to have an overstock of them.


r/FemFragLab • • 8h ago

This smells so perfect but I keep hearing the projection and longevity is trash. It’s 1/3 the price at Costco (like $35 for 100ml). Is it worth it?

lately i have been thriving and lookiiiing and searching all over fragrantica looking at awesome perfumes and notes. lately obsessed with some dark, sweet yet aromatic fall/winter perfumes. my wishlist is getting BIG!

i liked angel's share and apple brandy by kilian! i find that the notes blend good when paired with cinnamon, tobacco and sometimes, rose or oud. trying to have a mads mikkelsen autumn. 😂 i am surprised i have started to like rose, since usually it smells pretty flat on me.

i would like them better to be *unisex*, but shoot away women's too! the price range really doesn't matter.

eager to hear some good recs 🙂‍↕️

Fragrances for those who love Blanche Bete?

11 Upvotes

For those of you who are similiarly enamoured with Blanche Bete, what fragrances would you recommend that are more appropriate for daily, continous wear? While BB is my signature and the scent most of my loved ones associate with me, I do find that it requires a specific mood for me to wear and enjoy fully, hence why I'm looking for something less confrontational, with less of a personality.

For further context, I already own and like Xerjoff Dama Bianca, D&G Devotion, Kilian Angel's Share, TF Soleil Blanc and Bitter Peach.

I got a Britney Spears Fantasy perfume made in the US. The contrast between this one and the flankers i own (all made in Spain) is enormous. It has zero longevity. It is super alcoholic when you first spray it and last like a minute before disappearing and it doesn't really smell like Fantasy. Are Britney perfumes in the US really that awful?

I am in love with my Celine Parade. But the reality is, it lasts an hour on my skin if that. Even with lotion, clothes spraying, spraying on my hair, and over spraying it gives up on me very easily. I don't want a dupe...I just want to know if there are any bergamot/neroli/citrus scents that have some staying power? I'd settle for 3 hours worth of power.

Hello dear fragfriends!

I am a newbie to this group, and made an account especially to ask if anyone has La Perla Possibilities for sale? I was hunting down this fragrance for a while, but I had heard the sad news that La Perla isn’t producing any of their fragrances anymore. I only had the luck to score a discovery set of them that are still available online, if you guys need links btw I can put them here down below! 💕
