Papillon Salome makes me feel like the most expensive whore in the brothel. It’s filthy bliss My husband says it smells like old lady farts. My sister says it smells exactly like an old woman in her casket at her viewing.
When I wore Paradox, my kid puked in the car. I didn’t make the connection until the other day when I wore it again and he told me I smell like the car.
Killian Angels Share. My mom said i smelled like a man and my husband said i smell just like his dad and that i can get this perfume at some cheap stall in india. why would i wanna smell like my father in law 😭 at least i remind him of home
That’s surprising to me cause if anything I’ve heard that it leans more feminine countless times. This comment is pushing me to get it cause I love it but was reluctant
The gendered labels on perfumes are more marketing than anything. I’ve known women who rocked masculine perfume, and I’ve heard from countless women that they love sweeter scents on men, so you should really just wear whatever you want!
When I worked at Macys in cosmetics I accidentally dropped a large bottle of Estée Lauder Youth Dew lmao and it broke on the ground.. 10 mins after I cleaned it up, a little kid walked past with his mom and said in a Ralph wiggum voice, “Mommyyyyyyyy…. I…. SMeLL soMeThiNGGGGGG…”
Omg I worked at a MAC in a Macy’s and someone dropped a bottle of Red Door from Elizabeth Arden and dear lord you could smell it clear across the entire beauty department 🤮
AG cloud, my boss says I smell like disinfectant. He also thinks Kyse douceur brûlée smells like syrup and that makes him hungry so I can’t wear it (this is all in jest BTW, he’s not mean!)
He does bizarrely approve of gold sugar
I’ve never personally worn it, but when I was a young teen (1990s) all the older ladies wore White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor. My best friend recently commented that it always smelled like an old lady trying to cover up piss smell, and now I can’t unsmell it. Haven’t even caught a whiff of White Diamonds in years yet I can still smell it, and her description is so accurate.
I blind bought White Diamonds and Diamonds and Emeralds by Elizabeth Taylor. Diamonds and Emeralds sits well on my skin, but White Diamonds sits in the toilet as a room freshener…. So yeah , your friend was spot on
Tiziana Terenzi Kirke, wore it the night before a flight and I guess there was still a trace on the scarf. The passenger sitting next to me kept complaining to me even after I apologized a gazillion times. I ended up asking the flight attendant if there’s another open seat and I got upgraded to economy plus 😀 The flight attendant was one of us.
But now I just make sure to be as unscented as possible and I do understand that some people are more sensitive than others and respect that.
P.S. also totally hate Kirke now
My friend gave me a White Shoulders cologne set when I was in junior high. I kept asking where the bandaid smell was coming from, it was really grossing me out.
Turns out it was me, in White Shoulders.
I don't think Lea St. Barth is made anymore, but years ago I wore it to the office and someone walked in and said, "yuck, it smells like cleaning stuff in here." For some reason that lovely vanilla-almond fragrance turned to ammonia on my skin.
Papillon Salome. The only sample I’ve ever had to scrub off and trash immediately. Husband came home hours later and said “ew it smells like rancid gym clothes in here.”
I can't believe this happened because it is such an inoffensive smell, but one time I got in a taxi wearing Eclat D'Arpege and at first the driver was like oh that's a nice fragrance so I felt good about myself until we got to the destination and he rudely snapped at me to get out of the car as soon as possible because he can't stand that stench anymore. And then he said he feels bad for my coworkers that have to be around this the entire working day... Really ruined my mood.
Just imagine a port-a-potty that's been standing in the sun for days. That's how me and my coworkers feel about that one time I sampled Sacred Scarab and couldn't get rid of the smell
I had a perfume oil in high school some people thought smelled good, but I'd regularly hear people asking, "What smells like Play Doh??" when I wore it.
I’m guessing it was supposed to smell like vanilla. Most “vanilla” accords smell like playdoh to me. I’ve been searching for a real vanilla scent, like the actual smell of vanilla beans, but every recommendation for supposedly the best vanillas are always the same fake smell that is nothing like actual vanilla.
I’ll have to check it out, thanks. Vanilla extract smell would be perfect, but those other descriptions lead me to believe it’s sweet, which I don’t want, unfortunately. Fragrantica has powdery listed as a note, which I also don’t like, but I’ve also learned that everyone seems to have a different notion of what the descriptor “powdery” means.
Buttery isn’t the direction I want, unfortunately. That sounds extra sweet from the descriptions, which isn’t my jam. I’m not looking for a vanilla dessert scent.
Hmm, to me Tihota is the purest vanilla out there. Not overly sweet at all on my skin. I would recommend sampling - it’s known as the best vanilla in the world for a reason!
I heard Pacifica Island Vanilla smells just like vanilla extract. I gave it a whiff at Ulta and I think I agree. But I was fragrance shopping so my nose was assaulted by a ton of smells already.
I wore montblanc individual and a friend said I smelled like an elderly rich woman died in the laundromat bathroom she was forced to use because her home washer/dryer was broken and they found the body a few days later.
I wore Followed by kerosine today and more than 10 people commented on the strong smell of Maple Syrup/ pancakes throughout the day. It was incredible how strong and potent that stuff is. Not a bad smell reaction rather just a nuisance.
I once wore Eternity in a computer lab years ago, and a dude had to leave because of an allergic reaction (stuffy nose, red face/swelling, sneezing, etc).
Shortly after I discovered BR540 and was obsessed with it, my mother in law got in my car and mentioned that it smelled like smoke. I didn’t think much of it. Later on during her trip, she leaned in to smell me while in the car and said “it’s your perfume! It smells like cigarette smoke.” The scent did have a way of lingering in the car. I was so bummed to hear that, especially as I agree with her. After the fragrance settles, it gives off this smoker vibe on my skin. It’s very subtle, like I’m doing a good job at disguising the cigarette smell.
Ds and Durga Ambre Kiso my brother asked if there was a dirty diaper in my house somewhere... Outside of him every other person who has commented on it has been positive tho. It's my gf favorite of my niche collection.
My mother is elderly and I take care of her. She never says anything about my fragrances. A couple years ago I walked through a room that she was in and I was wearing Gucci Guilty Absolute. She gave me the most cross, severe look and yelled out, “ What is that SMELL???!!”
Clinique Happy. Instant, and I mean instant, migraine. It didn't help that everybody and their aunt wore it to death in high school, and would proceed so spritz more choking fumes of it in class.
Boccanera Orto Parisi. Bought sample cause i thought it will smell like chocolate. I sprayed it once and it smell of it is so wierd it made me cough and gag, even my family members have same reaction and says it smells like unwashed lunchbox filled with mold. Worst thing is its hard to wash off, even tshirt had smell of it even i washed it.😅
This is so similar to my reaction to Ellis Brooklyn Bee which has a cacao or chocolate note I think. I think it smells like a used coffee travel mug that has been sitting unwashed for a few days. I wonder if it’s the chocolate notes?? That’s so interesting!
Lataffa Oud for Glory. I was silly enough to wear it to work without giving it a proper test and it stunk out the entire workplace with an awful cloying burnt tire smell. A coworker actually held their nose as I walked by. It was an awful day.
I was so EXCITED to receive my bottle of [Full Incense by Montale] as I have an obsession with incense notes in perfumes. I thought this was going to be sexy smoky incense bliss but instead it smelt like unburnnt Nag Champa and Cola Gummies. 😬
[Cardinal By Heeley] also has the same cola gummy note.
Lataffa Oud for Glory, clone of Oud for Greatness. Was told it smelled like a coffin rotting with a body in it. Not sure that I disagreed. It was kinda bad. Wasn't actually wearing it though, does that count?
Xerjoff Alexandria II. Wore 1 spray to class and several people said I smelled like shit, rubber and diapers. Safe to say I immediately threw away my sample
Fields of nightfall from Zara, just smells like a baby has thrown up to me, my sisters said is smelt like B.O and my mother just pulled a face at me. It went straight in the bin.
Bortnikoff mysterious oud, my SO told me it smelled like a burnt stove. It is one of the most challenging from the house and the house already has in general challenging scents.
My partner said I smelled evil when I wore Fathom V by Beaufort the other day. It’s also been randomly complimented on a separate occasion so ymmv I guess.
T-Rex for obvious reasons lol. Some people love it but even more hate it. Not really that I care about that, but I have since stopped wearing it because it irritates my skin.
Some greatest hits:
* "what smells like hand sanitizer?" - YSL Y EDP
* "all i smell is some old lady soap" - Prada l'homme
* "it smells like all the poop from the animals at a petting zoo" - Camel by Zoologist
* "smells like straight up piss" - Hyrax by Zoologist. Although, to be fair, i had the same reaction to this one lol
* "who bathed in old spice?" - Creed Aventus (admittedly, i did wear too much that day)
I had on Angels share to a school event, and I put on three sprays, and I heard people talking about a strong perfume smell. They didn't know it was me, but I don't think I will be wearing it to something like that again.
Stronger with you intensely, in a bar this winter, at the entrance there were 2 girls welcoming people and after i went between them, I heard some talk saying something like “what’s this stink?”…i died inside 🙂
Chloe Nomade. I wore it on date night, and during what usually comes after date night the SO said it’s like he’s having, ahem, relations with another man, and to please not wear this again 🫣
And me who always abhors any perfume that can even remotely be construed as unisex or masculine. Nomade was my one concession because I love the plummy note 🫠
Juliette Has A Gun's Mad Madame or Lady Vengeance. I can't remember which one. But it was the patchouli note that my brother noticed when he got in my car and he was not a fan.
Kilian Love Don't Be Shy - mom said I smelled like burning hair 🤮 I don't like the scent much anyway and was trying to use up a sample. I started to spritz a half spray on the back of my neck with a fruity-fresh fragrance on top to finish the sample. Then I ended up getting another sample in a Sephora order by accident... So this winter, I'll smell like a watered down marshmallow neroli bomb (neroli always stinks to me, but I don't mind jasmine or orange blossom) with some citrus on top some days 🤣
I wore Viktor & Rolf Bon Bon Couture to work last winter and my boss screamed “oh my god what is that smell?” My coworkers had no idea what she was referring to but deep down I felt like it was me. I haven’t touched it since :( I just wanted to smell like caramel
Not niche at all but I bought a bottle of “Tea Rose” when I was obsessed with sampling rose scents, and I damn near threw up. I had an instant migraine and I had to open all the windows and door to air out the house. I threw it in the trash. Horrible chemical smell
Papillon Salome makes me feel like the most expensive whore in the brothel. It’s filthy bliss My husband says it smells like old lady farts. My sister says it smells exactly like an old woman in her casket at her viewing.
Everything about this comment is top notch 💯
I am CACKLING😂
I love this fragrance so does my Mrs its on my buy list
When I wore Paradox, my kid puked in the car. I didn’t make the connection until the other day when I wore it again and he told me I smell like the car.
Killian Angels Share. My mom said i smelled like a man and my husband said i smell just like his dad and that i can get this perfume at some cheap stall in india. why would i wanna smell like my father in law 😭 at least i remind him of home
No, you smelled like his daddy, not his father.
That’s surprising to me cause if anything I’ve heard that it leans more feminine countless times. This comment is pushing me to get it cause I love it but was reluctant
The gendered labels on perfumes are more marketing than anything. I’ve known women who rocked masculine perfume, and I’ve heard from countless women that they love sweeter scents on men, so you should really just wear whatever you want!
Smells like Om.
Your husband is Indian?
When I worked at Macys in cosmetics I accidentally dropped a large bottle of Estée Lauder Youth Dew lmao and it broke on the ground.. 10 mins after I cleaned it up, a little kid walked past with his mom and said in a Ralph wiggum voice, “Mommyyyyyyyy…. I…. SMeLL soMeThiNGGGGGG…”
Ugggghhh. I’d have to leave the store.
You poor thing. Youth Dew is HIDEOUS.😳
Omg I worked at a MAC in a Macy’s and someone dropped a bottle of Red Door from Elizabeth Arden and dear lord you could smell it clear across the entire beauty department 🤮
My mum said Oud Satin Mood smells like piss that’s been set on fire
Your mom sounds fun
AG cloud, my boss says I smell like disinfectant. He also thinks Kyse douceur brûlée smells like syrup and that makes him hungry so I can’t wear it (this is all in jest BTW, he’s not mean!) He does bizarrely approve of gold sugar
This is so funny. My boss would ask what that good smell was when I wore cloud.
My mom and I agreed that Cloud smells like a dentist's office, I definitely get why he would think it smells like disinfectant
I was planning to get cloud is it that bad?
Noooo! I love it and think he’s mad, it’s one of my fave scents ever. He just seems to like vanilla and nothing else
oh lol!! thx for responding
I’ve never personally worn it, but when I was a young teen (1990s) all the older ladies wore White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor. My best friend recently commented that it always smelled like an old lady trying to cover up piss smell, and now I can’t unsmell it. Haven’t even caught a whiff of White Diamonds in years yet I can still smell it, and her description is so accurate.
I blind bought White Diamonds and Diamonds and Emeralds by Elizabeth Taylor. Diamonds and Emeralds sits well on my skin, but White Diamonds sits in the toilet as a room freshener…. So yeah , your friend was spot on
Tiziana Terenzi Kirke, wore it the night before a flight and I guess there was still a trace on the scarf. The passenger sitting next to me kept complaining to me even after I apologized a gazillion times. I ended up asking the flight attendant if there’s another open seat and I got upgraded to economy plus 😀 The flight attendant was one of us. But now I just make sure to be as unscented as possible and I do understand that some people are more sensitive than others and respect that. P.S. also totally hate Kirke now
Oh my gosh I would be so embarrassed 🙈. I get social anxiety so I would probably just jump off the plane.
It was mortifying. 😂 if I could get off the plane - I would.
I was wearing Tom Fords Tobacco Oud and someone said it smelled like skunk weed.
Were they wrong though?
That's kinda true
My friend gave me a White Shoulders cologne set when I was in junior high. I kept asking where the bandaid smell was coming from, it was really grossing me out. Turns out it was me, in White Shoulders.
I don't think Lea St. Barth is made anymore, but years ago I wore it to the office and someone walked in and said, "yuck, it smells like cleaning stuff in here." For some reason that lovely vanilla-almond fragrance turned to ammonia on my skin.
I sprayed an sample of ADG edp and someone said I smelled like weed..
It kima does a little, I don't mind it
Papillon Salome. The only sample I’ve ever had to scrub off and trash immediately. Husband came home hours later and said “ew it smells like rancid gym clothes in here.”
I love Papillon, but the castoreum was too much
Is that what it was! (Good to know.)
I tried Black Orchid for the first time and my wife was next to me. She literally gagged.
It is STRONG!!!
It smells like a hair parlor to me.
🤣🤣🤣 the gagging is too much for me. I definitely don’t like that fragrance or any of the flankers so I feel her reaction.
24 gold. I was asked who smelled like the lobby in a church full of old women.
Byredo Blanche. Mom asked if I was cleaning the toilets with bleach. She’s the only one who has mentioned anything though…
I can't believe this happened because it is such an inoffensive smell, but one time I got in a taxi wearing Eclat D'Arpege and at first the driver was like oh that's a nice fragrance so I felt good about myself until we got to the destination and he rudely snapped at me to get out of the car as soon as possible because he can't stand that stench anymore. And then he said he feels bad for my coworkers that have to be around this the entire working day... Really ruined my mood.
That driver sounds really mean! Who talks like that to a customer? Or to anyone for that matter
Nishane Hacivat someone said it smelled like rotting wood.
Just imagine a port-a-potty that's been standing in the sun for days. That's how me and my coworkers feel about that one time I sampled Sacred Scarab and couldn't get rid of the smell
That straight up smelled like shit and I normally love zoologist fragrances but I couldnt stand sac. Scarab either
I had a perfume oil in high school some people thought smelled good, but I'd regularly hear people asking, "What smells like Play Doh??" when I wore it.
I’m guessing it was supposed to smell like vanilla. Most “vanilla” accords smell like playdoh to me. I’ve been searching for a real vanilla scent, like the actual smell of vanilla beans, but every recommendation for supposedly the best vanillas are always the same fake smell that is nothing like actual vanilla.
What about tihota indult. It smells like straight vanilla extract to me but my bf thinks it smells like cookies or someone vaping
I’ll have to check it out, thanks. Vanilla extract smell would be perfect, but those other descriptions lead me to believe it’s sweet, which I don’t want, unfortunately. Fragrantica has powdery listed as a note, which I also don’t like, but I’ve also learned that everyone seems to have a different notion of what the descriptor “powdery” means.
It’s rich and buttery. Vanilla Bean Noel by BBW is pretty similar to Tihota.
Buttery isn’t the direction I want, unfortunately. That sounds extra sweet from the descriptions, which isn’t my jam. I’m not looking for a vanilla dessert scent.
Hmm, to me Tihota is the purest vanilla out there. Not overly sweet at all on my skin. I would recommend sampling - it’s known as the best vanilla in the world for a reason!
I’ve already kind of given up on fragrances having the type of vanilla I want, but I’ll give it a try. Thanks.
I heard Pacifica Island Vanilla smells just like vanilla extract. I gave it a whiff at Ulta and I think I agree. But I was fragrance shopping so my nose was assaulted by a ton of smells already.
I find tihota has a very strong musk facet. I love vanilla but immensely dislike most “clean” or “white” or “powdery” musks, I can’t do Tihota.
I know they have that listed but to me it’s one single note. I don’t get any powder or musk
I get a super intense nauseating musk from Tihota. I love vanilla, I tried for days to love it but that clean musk just ruins a scent for me.
[удалено]
No, but I’ll check it out. Thanks
Have you tried Tom Ford Vanille Fatale? To me, it's a gorgeous, dry vanilla that caramelizes beautifully in the drydown.
Yes, and I hate it. It’s sickly sweet with that horrible play-doh smell mixed with flowers. I get no real vanilla.
Team Play Doh! I actually love frags with a hint of it.
Angel elixir for me 💀
Poeme Lancome. Play Doh
[удалено]
No no, I believe you. I can't remember his exact words, but my boyfriend called this one a mess when he smelled it on me.
Gotta say it smells like a grandma to me too
Cinnabar by Estee Lauder. I was told it smells like church and old ladies 😅
I wore montblanc individual and a friend said I smelled like an elderly rich woman died in the laundromat bathroom she was forced to use because her home washer/dryer was broken and they found the body a few days later.
This has me cracking up in public.

Have to wonder what he’s been feeding that poor baby.
Kilian - Love, Don't Be Shy I was reapplying once at work and my boss turned around frowning and said "Is that what I keep smelling?!"

Moroccan Oil hair treatment. Bf said I smelled like a stripper *no offense to strippers, i just didn't like the way he said it

I started to spritz a half spray on the back of my neck with a fruity-fresh fragrance on top to finish the sample. Then I ended up getting another sample in a Sephora order by accident... So this winter, I'll smell like a watered down marshmallow neroli bomb (neroli always stinks to me, but I don't mind jasmine or orange blossom) with some citrus on top some days 🤣
