Glossier You!!! In fact all the glossier ones!

JoRaRaRa · 18/03/2026 19:32

So I've just covered myself in the Phlur Rose Whip and realised why I love it so much. It smells just like Delina 😍 I don't like to use that one when wfh as I don't want to run out, so at least with this, I can wear it guilt free.

Ooh sounds good, I was just thinking about trying that one out as I'm in my Rose phase, it sounds like it's a light rose rather than your heavy oudy type?

What's the phlur rose whip in?

Space NK package landed - oh joy! Keen to try the Rose Whip and Father Figure and also the Xtra Mochi Milk and other milks.

I've already tried the Glossiers but liked them all before so may keep them in storage for when the others run out. Glossier is good for big office days as quite subtle.
Up at dawn by Replica another one on the try list .

I love afternoon delight but have the bigger one already. This may be good for travel.

I bought the new travel size Summer Friday Sunlit Vanilla from SNK. It's supposed to be airy and not too sweet but still reminiscent of rich ice cream. We shall see if it lives up to that when it arrives tomorrow.

I thought it would be nice to take away next month. I'd like to take Alto Astral which is a perfect holiday scent to me but don't really want to travel with the large Byredo bottle.

Yes, it's quite light, it's very nice 😍

Father figure is nice too, I got that one in a SNK cracker last year and have worn it a few times. It's quite light but comforting too.

The afternoon delight is a bit sickly for me, I like up at dawn though, but I need to sell some to recoup some of the money to justify buying more stuff 😜

That's pretty much my modus operandi. I will probably keep the phlurs and the dedcools, the rest I can part ways with although may keep back some glossiers. Reve is my favourite with fleur (actually not very floral) a close second. Doux is so-so.

Was it someone on here that did the DS & Durga experience at Liberty? I’m thinking of going into London for a day trip on y birthday and booking this? I’ve got about 140 in my beauty drop and another £20 in loyalty vouchers, plus parents gave me 200 for fun money, so I can go fs. Yeay!

Doglover73 · 18/03/2026 21:11

Are the listing for the space nk wrong. I cant see plural rose on listing's?

@JoRaRaRa
I have a phone father figure from said cracker. Not tried yet.
Dont want to open and not like. 🤣

JoRaRaRa · 18/03/2026 21:18

@IDontHateRainbows i think you Doux is my favourite, but I'm going to wear the 2 I've received over the next few days, so that might change.

@Doglover73 yes, it's in the photo for the floral edit but the description is wrong.
I think it was @OvaHere who loved father figure and wore it a lot towards the end of last year. Or I might've just made that up. The name did put me off a bit but it is nice 💜

That was me! They tried to get me pissed on champagne, like REALLY tried and left me in the little booth with the whole bottle, in the hopes presumably that I'd emerge in a drunken stupor and spend all my money. Well it backfired! I did drink a lot (I went on my own) but not the whole bottle but I'd already fallen in love with some perfumes at Covent Garden so went back there and haemmoraghed my bank account at Tom Ford and PDM. @JoRaRaRa was enabling me if I remember!

It was a good experience though, about 40 minutes. Plus you get chocolates. If I'd fallen in love with any DS and Durga I may have been tempted but I already had a lusting for TF Fig Erotique which couldn't be surpassed.

Tried the Up at Dawn by Maison Margiela. Very nice, despite spilling a bit on my skirt. Scent profile says musky rose, seems similar to Rose Whip from the scent profile, has anyone tried both? Seems a bit redundant to put both RW and this in the same set but if I like them both then double the fun I guess.

Yes it's rose whip in the floral set. the listing has cherry stem in error.

Yes it was me. I do really like it. I've not yet found another Phlur one I'm as keen on.

I didn't try the up to dawn on my skin, but I sniffed it 🤣 I agree, very similar to RW. I wonder how similar the kayali is to them too? I have a sample of the kayali so I'll test tomorrow 😊

I call that kayali the poor man's delina so it is in the same vein but not a patch on real delina.
Just tried the rose whip and yes it is very delina-like.
Still prefer original delina although delina exclusif tops that.

Bit samey of space nk, they could have had a white floral, or a ylang, or a darker rose in there.

I still prefer delina too, the Phlur will be good for days when you don't want an intense delina, or wfh and fancy it but don't want to use the good stuff 😊

I might sell the kayali from the floral edit too then if it smells like another delina copy, I don't feel like I need anymore.

I'm the other way round spray the good stuff when wfh as its usually stronger and the weaker stuff for office days. Fleur royale or whatever its called is not great compared to Delina so I'd definitely sell it on.

I have a part used 2ml of Cherry Stem. I wasn't keen on it but maybe I should try again. I think I tried Rose Whip in store, I can't really remember what I thought but it can't have been very memorable otherwise it would have made it to my want list.

TheFutureIs · 19/03/2026 08:08

Forest Lungs for me today. Found a tiny sample I got ages ago in a scent edit. It’s comforting and grounding. Just what I need for a hectic day in the classroom

82blue · 19/03/2026 08:19

One of my favourite rose perfumes is Serge Lutens fille de berlin. Its a heavy rose, dark and strong. Highly recommend trying this if you like Rose scents.

IDontHateRainbows · 19/03/2026 08:22

Memo Odeon today, a sweet amber rose. Also put a dab on the new Replica up at dawn from the SNK floral edit. Combines quite well, the up at dawn is a musky rose, a little fresher but enough similarity to combine.

Sounds interesting. I do prefer the darker side of rose. My fave so far is radical rose extrait by matiere premiere, such a quality house. The bottles are ridic expensive but I've ordered a little sample off perfumista, and hope I don't fall in love with it too much. Also I really enjoy Scherzo by Miller Harris.
