Perfume soc "niche twilight" set arrived.

Got Maya Njie Tobak on one hand and PDM Valaya on the other.

Tobak is pretty horrifying - stale and fuggy with a hint of poop in it 😱. I bet it's going to be impossible to scrub off too 😔

Scrubbed it off and replaced with Goldfield and banks Mystic Bliss. Much nicer. Kind of creamy fig?? Reminds me a lot of a fragrance I've had in the past (or maybe a body lotion??) but can't place it

Has anyone tried anything from Beaufort London? I'm intrigued... I'm also an absolute sucker for this sort of marketing vibe....

Tiny spritz of Fracas on my upper arm... Gonna rock Jilly cooper baddie vibes down at the gym 😂

Although obviously if I were a real JC baddie I'd be DRENCHED in it

@NotTheFreudYoureLookingFor
No sorry. None of them are appealing to me 🤣🤩
I love the descriptions though. Who tests what some of those things smell of? 🤩

Anyone had despatch confirmation from perfume society? The essence box sold out not long after I placed an order and ive had nothing apart from the initial order confirmation email. Hoping it's still happening!

You’re going to need more than a tiny spritz of Fracas, Jilly’s ladies always drench themselves in the stuff 😆

Edited: just noticed your second post saying exactly that 🤣

I’ve done several applications of EA Green Tea Coconut Breeze today. I’m tempted to put it in the fridge tonight ready for tomorrow.

I succumbed and bought the next fragrance box which has a full size armani power of you, then mini dabbers of infusion d'riis, alien pulp, black opium glitter and lancome idole. Definitely don't want the idole or the power of you. Interested in the prada and the alien pulp, on the fence with the black opium glitter. So at least two I'll keep maybe 3.

One of my new samples won't spray... Any idea how to fix it? I can see there's a big air bubble in the tube, and no amount of pumping will dislodge it!

Haha!!

I received mine today via DX, the email says it's coming from ultrasun not perfume society, if that helps?

After all the mentions I’ve had a little spray of the Barrois Aldebaran.

Oh! Creosote and germolene. Hint of medicated tooth powder. Leading into pencil shavings.

I’ll wait for the dry down but first thought is a definite no!

I got mine today.

Damn, I am fearing they sold out now. Will email them.

Sotd abel laundry day. Perfect for sunny weather.

Hahaha! I just love it. Did you warm to it at all?

If not, would you like to swap it with one of my samples eg if there's a barrois that you prefer? if you like Tilia I'd happily swap it for your Aldebaran. I've only used two sprays from that sample.

I didn’t warm to it!

Happy to swap, I’ll have a sniff of Tilia! Thank you!

It’s my birthday today! The kids have bought me A Drop D’Issey Essentielle with their pocket money ❤️

It’s described as an aquatic green floral, to me it smells like when you visit the garden centre and they’ve been watering the plants so all the lilacs have opened.

spoke to TPS and they are processing it now for delivery tomorrow! I wasn't sure whether to go in to the office or work from home, due to the heat. but this is worth missing the air con for .

SOT Afternoon = Salvatore Ferragamo Signorina. This is a fruity floral, quite inoffensive for the office. One of those perfectly nice but nothing to write home about scents.

Great! I'll DM you.

Sote prada ocean
I love masculine leaning scents that are fresh x

You would probably like commes des garcons, if you don't already. I got the discovery kit from liberty to qualify for the gwp. Interesting scents , quite urban/ minimalist.
