    I’m almost 40 and I like juvenile scents, some of the “mature” or “sexy” scents I can imagine I’d call old lady scents. My nose may be perpetually 16 years old. 😂

    I'm 100% ON PAR with you about Versace Crystal Noir! I saw so many people on tiktok raving about it and when I read the notes I was like YEAH NOT HAPPENING. But omg, when I finally smelled it, it absolutely blew my nose off! SOOO GOOD! And really doesn't smell anything like the notes IMO? It's uber sexy and I can't wait to buy a full size!

    If you like Candy Yum Yum you should try Wonderland Peony from Floral Street!! It’s very similar and shares two of the same notes (the guava and cotton candy) so it’s still fun but it’s more floral and woody and fresh 🥰

    I was at BBW today...when I first sprayed the coconut & cotton in the store I loved it. I kept spraying it on the card and smelling it while I was still shopping. Before I went to the register I sprayed it on my wrist and I HATED it...so I did not purchase it. I agree with you on the other BBW scents as well.

    Oh man, i love Flowerbomb Midnight! Theres actually no Patchouli in it, its a vanilla base as you said, along with Musk. Top notes: Black current, Pomegranate, Mid: Peony and Night Blooming Jasmine. My favorite Flowerbomb is Nectar tho, i LOVE Nectar! But I also love Midnight because of no Patchouli. I really enjoy the OG more and more as time goes on though.

    I blind bought Thank U next yesterday and it honestly wasn't what I thought it would be. When I fist sprayed it, it smelled like a dirty sour musk. That goes away after a minute or so and then it turns into a fresh floral for some reason. That's just what I smell- there are no floral notes in there but it's just what I get. :)

    Flowerbomb midnight is amazing on my skin . I have Versace noir and Mon Paris as well and love those too. Flowerbomb midnight was my most complimented scent in 2021 . I purposely tested all my perfumes to see which ones people stopped me to compliment and flowerbomb midnight got about twice as many as the rest .. it is such a deep nighttime dreamy scent on me I was sad to hear “ dried old flowers” .

    Oh well, it has to be done: I must challenge you and find that one gorgeous plum fragrance that you will adore. I STRONGLY recommend Rivalite Imperiale by Plume Impressions. Nobody talks about it, it's under the radar still but for the upcoming spring and summer...wow, what a gorgeous everyday scent. Please do seek it out and give it a test run on a happy, warm afternoon to see what you think. I look forward to hearing your verdict on the luscious, almost apricot compote-like mirabelle plum note. There's a distinct ghost note of toasted coconut which I keep chasing when I sniff my arms. I just know it's there, despite only one reviewer having the same experience, haha! A gentle vanilla tobacco without the coumarin sister note or ashtray vibes, don't worry, but stewed fudgy dates and apricot plum. Oh, I can't! It's happy summer holidays in a bottle and I highly recommend it to you. :)

    If you like REM by Ari you will probably like God Is A Woman. It's like a mix between REM and Cloud for me.
    My favorite B&BW body sprays are mostly discontinued, but my husband searches for them. The available ones: are Dahlia, Forever Red, Lavender & Sea Salt and Sweater Weather. The discontinued ones are: Lavender Sandalwood and Midnight Peony.
    I love Bare Vanilla from VS too and I mix it with Ari God Is A Woman. Most times, many more compliments on that than my niche and luxury 🤣🤣

    Have you ever found a Bbw spray you like? I feel like their quality went down a lot in the last few years. Same with Victoria secret and pink. Also hate that they discontinue the best formulations! I had a cheapie coconut scent from Pink that I was in love with, still haven’t found any to compare with it. I do have some questions for you, how do you feel about dolce and gabanna pour femme, pour femme intense, mon guerlain edp, libre intense, DG Crystal noir, Estée Lauder bronze goddess, Valentino Donna born in Roma, AG REM, AG SLC, AG Ari, philosophy fresh cream warm cashmere, hypnotic poison edt and khloe blue sapphire. I trust your opinion and I want to buy a nice fragrance for myself as a gift for passing a difficult nursing exam. My collection right now includes a lot of perfumes! I have GON (love), la belle (love), narciso poudree (love), nirvana bourbon, nirvana black (a solid like), CK eternity now, S Vergara’s love and Sophia, outremer vanille, Mariah’s dreams, Nina Ricci rose extase/caresse/l’extase/absolue (kinda like), Michael Kors glam jasmine, kkw pure honey/fleur fatale/original, Burberry her edp (love), Burberry Brit, Burberry classic, Jessica Simpson fancy love, Ariana Grande cloud (love), dkny be delicious pool party lime mojito, nirvana amethyst, Jennifer Anniston chapter one (love), kkw glam (like), sjp lovely, Burberry London.
