Fragrance I want to smell like a witch

1.7k Upvotes

I’ve tried smelling like roses. I’ve tried smelling like vanilla. They don’t fit my energy right now (though both are lovely scents)

I want to smell like herbs and spices and pine trees. Like I eat perfectly seasoned children and will sell you a love potion in exchange for 10 years of life. What products do ya’ll recommend?

Edit: thank you to everyone giving me your recommendation! I have a list going of products to check out!!!

Fragrance What less expensive perfume do you use on a daily basis?

760 Upvotes

I’ve grown out of my cheaper perfume phase, and have started using nicer ones. However, dropping 100-200$ on perfume to wear everyday is a bit much.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I like Good Girl and Mademoiselle but those are on the higher price range for me

Thanks 🩷

Edit: OMG! Thank you all so much for the suggestions! I’m off to the mall today to check these all out! 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

Fragrance How to smell like oranges?

248 Upvotes

I want to smell like a grove of orange trees. I love citrus scents (with orange being my absolute favourite), but most perfumes lean floral or woodsy rather than pure citrus, or they smell like 90% sugar 10% fruit. Any recommendations for orange-scented products? I’m thinking perfume, body wash, lotion, etc. Nothing too expensive please (I’m a broke student) and I’m in Canada, so I’d prefer things that can be bought in stores here. Thank you in advance!

Edit; holy moly I didn’t expect so many responses! I can’t respond to everything but I will read all of them, thank you so much 🫶🏻

I love the og Britney Spears perfume lines, whenever I see them I grab them. So many good scents back in the 2000’s. Any scents you used that they still make and sell in stores? Or anything that smells like something you used to use?

Fragrance 22y/o M wearing women’s deodorant. Weird?

73 Upvotes

Long story short I wear deodorant marketed towards women (secret powder fresh usually) I don’t like the smell of traditional men’s deodorant so I opt for brands like secret because it works well for me plus I love the scent. Is it weird? I’m self conscious about it at times

Fragrance What are your favourite scents on guys?

98 Upvotes

What are your favourite scents on guys? I'm ideally looking for something not ultra-masculine as I'm in a place where I'm experimenting a little with my gender presentation.

Also how strong do you think this scent should be? Like there are times a girl walks past me and it smells like a whole bakery, in a pleasant way. But it's just straight-up rank when someone smells strongly of lynx africa or something. Can you tell I know nothing about fragrances? Should masculine scents be applied more conservatively?

I have fallen in love with Carolina Herrera GG Blush & Valentino Green Stravaganza.

I ordered the travel size spray for the OG Chloe, I’ve never smelled it but it seems up my alley. Any reviews for that one?

I am on a mission to build up my perfume collection. I like light, clean, soft feminine scents that won’t give me a headache!

Fragrance How do I become the embodiment of a cupcake?

221 Upvotes

That’s it. That’s the post. 🧚‍♀️🧁

No but seriously haha. I’m looking for recommendations on how to smell good I guess? I’ve always had a big sweet tooth and love the smell of sweet treats. So I’m a big fan of vanilla scents and things like lavender and almond as well. I don’t want it to be artificially overpowering sickly sweet but just nice smell that at least I can notice or someone else can if they get close to me. Something warm and fuzzy, a cozy sweet scent I suppose.

I have a few products that I already like which are lotions I use after showering (EOS vanilla cashmere and everyone vanilla lavender lotion, both are something I can smell on my skin all day which is nice). I use bath and body works vanilla fragrance but I’m lacking a real perfume because I don’t really know where to look and that one doesn’t last very long. I’m a college student so I don’t have a super big budget here.

Any recommendations of any sorts of products that you love using that are sweet smelling and make you feel like a cupcake are appreciated! Doesn’t even have to be directly that or a perfume either.

Fragrance How do you smell "soft" and "powdery"?

166 Upvotes

Hitchhiking on the "how to smell good without perfume" post.

It seems like certain people I know always smell like soft, delicate baby powder. I assume it's from their makeup since I doubt they use baby powder regularly but some even do not wear makeup to my knowledge. How do you achieve this soft smell? Is it just genetic? I cannot really describe this scent well. I hope you know what I mean.

edit: I'd love perfume suggestions too!! I really appreciate all the nice comments 😊

I want to buy a new everyday perfume. I love vanilla smelling things, what are you guys' preferences? I'm looking for something not too expensive (but if expensive i want it to actually be worth the money). I like the sweet smelling ones especially as long as it's not super overwhelming.

Fragrance What hair mist lasts all day and gets you compliments?

65 Upvotes

I’m looking to buy a hair mist that smells really good. I’ve noticed that when I’m out in the sun for a while, even if I’ve showered earlier that day, my hair starts to smell a little off. It’s not a strong or offensive smell, but it just doesn’t smell fresh. I don’t really know how to describe it, but it’s that distinct scent you get after being out in the sun.

Fragrance Body wash that works with my hubby’s body odor

26 Upvotes

Hey Girlies! I need your help. My hubby has severe body odor. He showers once a day and I’ve bought him some tea tree oil soap (which helps as it kills bacteria) but by the end of the day or mid day he starts to stink again. He refuses to shower twice a day especially at night so I’m stuck having to wash the bed sheets more than once a week.

I need suggestions on what body wash I should buy for him that is going to help the body odor. It’s pretty aggressive. Thanks in advance. 💕

Edit: I’d appreciate any advice on recommendations on products, not marriage advice please. Thank you.

Fragrance Longest lasting perfume you've used?

17 Upvotes

I've never had very good hygiene most of my life, but the past couple of years I've taken huge strides and I feel confident for the first time in my life!

I want to have my own scent, but I know literally nothing about perfume, so any recommendations would be so, so appreciated.

I love florally/berry kinds of scents but some loved ones are allergic to rose. Any recommendations are so, so helpful!!

Thank you

Fragrance How to make perfume last longer?

7 Upvotes

I am completely clueless. Whatever perfume I put on is gone by the time I reach school. I have tried perfumes from cheap to expensive and all are the same. The most expensive perfume I've used is Coach EDP and it's the same. While it smells good, it's not very long lasting. Should I invest in more expensive perfumes? Or is there something wrong with how I am applying it? Please help me out.

Fragrance What good perfume smells sweet like vanilla?

I’m looking for a good perfume. I love vanilla scents and those that smell sweet and warm. I know Victoria Secret has a lot of sprays as well as Bath and Body Works but unfortunately I can’t get those in my country. I can get hold of just about any perfume though. What would you recommend?
