    You are not alone! Or maybe, I don’t feel alone now! For me, I tend to either love most offerings from a house, or dislike most offerings from a house. This house just doesn’t work for me. And that’s ok. I’m so glad it works and brings joy for others! ❤

      I haven’t tested Phlur fragrances in depth, but what you’re saying matches my limited experience. Money saved for other perfumes!

If you reviewed everything positively that could come across as disingenuous, so keep doing it your way. The full time job comment gave me a chuckle 😃🇦🇺

    Thank you for your honesty. I thought it was just me that wasn't impressed. Whenever I test Phlur in Sephora it's so obviously one of those houses that make frags that smell great in store with great openings. Most ppl are spraying these in store, smelling how great the opening is and buy it. I would prefer to get Bath and Body Works body sprays over a lot of offerings in Sephora.

    I do absolutely agree with you, Chris, about the perfumes from Phlur. I've tried four scents of the brand: Apricot privée, Lost cause, Not your baby and Missing person. The only one I can tolerate is Apricot privée, but even this suffers from what I consider the main problem of this brand: they smell SOOO SYNTHETIC! I cannot find anything realistic in the perfumes I've tried and that makes me so disappointed with the brand. Besides, the lack of longevity, projection and all the olfactory qualities that make a good scent are characteristic of Phlur. Many thanks for being so honest,
    probably more people than you think share your take on this brand.

I have one of those dogs too - he’ll find a cat pee patch or dead something spot in the grass and roll around happy as a clam - he did that on Wednesday RIGHT AFTER bringing them home from the groomers!!!!

Still waiting on the vanilla one to be reviewed but had to comment immediately after that dog spot.

    @Blondie77128 2 месяца назад

    Thank you for the honest review. We need more of this open unfiltered content. On the longevity I can personally attest to the briefness of Phlur performance. I purchased vanilla skin, truly love the fragrance but within 2-4 hours I need to respray. Going anosmic to vanilla perfumes is not an issue I have. Plus there are plenty of reviews that support this experience.
    Phlur execs are exactly the folks who need to hear your review. For nearly $100, the performance just isn’t there to justify the price tag. I won’t be repurchasing this fragrance. Maybe they could lower the greed factor, take a small increase on cost of goods to amp the oil content and gain profit margins by getting repurchase actions from consumers.
    Probably they banked on the success of their body mists, just add a pinchmore fragrance oil to an alcohol base and call it perfume et voila! 😉

    I love your videos and I also love vanilla even though I have to make do with what I already own, which is lots of perfumes. However, I have been into this perfume obsession for many years as I am certain I am probably one of the oldest subscribers on this channel. . Nevertheless, I hope to continue being a subscriber despite the fact that I am older than all of your other subscribers. I miss my frivolous days of buying so many perfumes, especially because I can no longer do that, but I am glad that I still have some of them, even if they are now old. However, in retrospect, even new fragrances will eventually be old as everything else. So I say use what you already have until you use up all of them. Hopefully, we all eventually only own what we love and what what works for you.

I also get little wafts, but very subtle. I love Tangerine Boy on my husband and he uses citrus lotion to enhance longevity. Not your baby smelled so good on paper, and became sour on skin, like when a baby drinks milk and it gets stuck in their neck rolls and they smell like a baby, but also sour sweet milk and they need their neck cleaned 😆

    Phlur in a Blur what a cute title!! 😍 I guess I didn’t realize how many Phlur scents I hadn’t tried yet! I do have a travel size of Father Figure (such a clever name) that I am really enjoying right now but it is so close to Ellis Brooklyn Sunfruit in the dry down. Although that “glossier you type” opening does make it special though!
    I have a 5ml deluxe sample of Tangerine Boy and I agree it’s kind of a cool scent, but I wouldn’t purchase it.
    Two years ago I bought a travel size of Not Your Baby and I absolutely hated it, it went straight back.. a very sickeningly sweet putrid scent to me 🙊🤭😆
    I’ve had Phloria on my Sephora wishlist for so long I forgot it was even there, so thank you for saving me the trouble of trying it and having to return it! 😅😅
    I also recently got a sample of their newest, Soft Spot which is quite pretty and musky however there’s a lot of jasmine in it so it ends up just like any other pretty girly jasmine-centric scent to me. 😊
    Now as much as I love and adore missing person, I have had a lot of people come over to sniff perfumes, and most of them cannot smell this one, so you are not alone!
    Loved hearing your thoughts, great video Chris! XO ❤❤❤

    Great, Great video! I really appreciate your honest opinions! I am one of those who like Missing Person, but it does not last at all as far as I could tell. But, those around me could smell it and they liked it. I did reapply later in the day and that seemed to last a bit longer. It reminds me of the Le Monde Gourmand 000 perfume - it has to be reapplied throughout the day. But the Le Monde Gourmand fragrance is significantly less expensive. What would recommend as a longer lasting scent similar to Missing Person and Tangerine Boy?

    I’m with you on this brand, Chris. I’ve tried a discovery set, a deluxe trio, and a few other samples, and outside of Tangerine Boy (agree-it’s delicious), I’m just unimpressed overall with the brand’s offerings so far. It reminds me a lot of Ellis Brooklyn, which I also haven’t found a good, long lasting fragrance from. Luckily, as we know, there are so many other brands out there! Thanks for the honesty, which I didn’t think was heavy handed at all!

    I really like my Phlur fragrances, but I can understand how others may not. They are my favorite when I want a soft fragrance without much projection. I love Not Your Baby, and I can still smell it on my clothes hours later. The first time I wore Missing Person it brought me back to my childhood, so it holds a special place, although it didn't last at all on me either. I am also enjoying Soft Spot and Vanilla Skin Body Spray (which actually has good performance for a body spray). I haven't tried them all, but once I'm done with these I'm not sure I'll repurchase them, even for office days.

    I think this is a totally fair assessment of the brand. I think some will find a scent within the line that grabs them (for me, it’s apricot privée, I absolutely love it), but most of the scents feel like filler. Clearly they’ve had great success with marketing and mass appeal, though, so more power to them. I also really like their Vanilla Skin body mist and just bought a travel size of the new EDP and have been enjoying it so far. For me, Phlur is always worth a smell but I don’t get my hopes up.

I actually bought the supposed dupe from Fine’ry (Without a Trace) which I can smell and has great longevity, especially for the price.

Years ago I would spend big money on fragrances and be very disappointed then I was stuck with a big purchase that I wouldn't use. I love your channel because you seem to be well educated take on the fragrances and give your honest opinion. I would rather have an honest opinion than a politically correct one. I have in this last year learned what type of fragrances I like and what to stay away from (its hard work!). By the way I bought a few fragrances from your store at Jomashop and look forward to receiving them. I was influenced by your recent video where you were wearing the green silk shirt. I have discovered that I like Arabian fragrances and I originally learned about them from you. I also bought Coco Shimmy from SNIF and looking forward to receiving it, sounds like a fun summer fragrance. Be well!

Totally agree on the other scents though. Couldn't find the scents to father figure or missing person, I thought someone had replaced the testers with water at Sephora. Tangerine Boy is great- I apply either a vanilla perfume oil or one spritz of vanilla 28 under it and it sticks better. But yeah.. probably wouldn't buy it full size. Thanks for the thorough review!
