Oh come on! Not another fruity-floral! This is soooo not going to last.
Well, according to the copy, it isn't a fruity floral but a floral…
…with fruit?
white peach and mandarin are fruits
Fragrance family classifications are made based on a scent's predominant characteristics, not the notes…Joy, for instance, has fruit but is not a fruity floral. Mitsouko has fruit but is not a fruity floral, etc etc. So just the presence of fruit doesn't mean anything — you'd have to smell it.
… “skin accord.” That could mean almost anything.
(Now, if somebody bottled “freshly washed baby,” I'd consider it.)
thanks for information, I didn't realize that. I just assumed that if certain notes are advertised, they might be predominant ones. Now I know better
It's all confusing! But makes sense when you think about it…almost all fragrances have flowers, but they don't all get classified “floral”…
But probably means: musk.
Clearly, I just need to personally test each and every perfume on the market….because ALL , yes I do mean ALL, of the descriptions sound wonderful to me! I know that is the goal of those tricky marketers but to be honest: I can tell very little about a fragrance from the list of notes….unless it contains one of the few notes I know to avoid….like if something says 'tar' –then it's a no-go. Other from that I'm like a defenseless babe in the woods.
oh, did I mention…..WAHHHH!
Tar… napalm… skank… you have clearly been reading over at Perfume Posse, haven't you?
heheheh busted, I've been cheating on NST…
oh, btw….that bottle of L'ame Soeur is getting ordered tomorrow……yippee….very exciting!
Daisy, nobody can tell much from the list of notes…but you'll have to get over the desire to smell everything or you'll have no time for anything else
