100% agree with Decadence. I first got a tester of it and it was during summer a couple years ago. It made me feel sick almost. But in the middle of winter that year I sprayed it on me and was like WHOA. I got past that strong initial smell to the gourmand sophisticated smell and now it's my go to for fall and winter nights out. ❤

I relate to your experience of having a much narrower palette in the early days of fragrance collecting compared to now. Chloe Nomade smelled like mildew to me initially, a year later I received it as a gift from my husband and it is now a top 3. Hermes Twilly was a huge thumbs down when I tried it in the store, but I tried it a few times with a sample and I have a full size I use in spring.

Recently bought First Kiss Exclusive because of you and I am not fond of it as of now but I am hoping it grows on me. The lasting power is freaking amazing on me, I sprayed a little bit on my wrist and could still smell it after loads of scrubbing in the shower. All I really smell is a strong rose and some chocolatey notes but I think it reminds me of some kind of medicinal home remedy from my childhood lol, it might be the incense note or the oud

I am still building my perfume collection. And so my nose is still maturing. As I step out of my comfort zone and familiarize myself with different scent profiles and notes the more I appreciate different fragrances even if they’re not my fav. And with that I notice certain fragrances are growing😊 ‘Rain Drops’ is a edp from an Arab brand called Ajmal, I just had to have this fragrance because of the name, I just love the rain but it was totally not what I expected, still isnt. It is growing on me tho and I like it better and better each time I wear it😊

I've been hesitant to try any oud frags lol. The word oud just sounds yucky to me lol. Idk why. Frags that had to grow on me: Jimmy Choo(that patchouli lol....) and I'm still up and down with this one, YSL Mon Paris on first spray it smelled so sharp, and kinda like a cheap men's cologne, Mon Paris is now my current favorite, MJ Decadence and Divine Decadence. Alien (of course), I'm not really a big fan of Mugler otherwise.

Yes, I first experienced Oud in one of my boyfriend's fragrances and I lived it on him. So I think because I smelled it on him, and then of course the female fragrances are a little less sharp and harsh with the oud, it makes it more tolerable for me to wear myself. :)

@@thesimplechiclife thanks for your reply. I think you have (maybe unintentionally) helped me to realize something....perhaps I'm making a judgement about oud frags before even trying one. Well, I think my days of hesitating are over. So, as soon as I get the chance I'm going to try to find a sample vial or a small/affordable oud frag. I think I'll try the Shaghaf Oud since you're the one who has inspired me to give oud a chance, and since that's the one you mentioned in this video. Also, I'm going to wear it at least 3 separate times without scrubbing it off before I decide whether I like it or not. I'll come back later on and let you know how it goes. Thank you, my sister.

I'm just remembering my first spray and sniff of my current favorite: YSL Mon Paris and how horrible I thought it was. So sharp...so "cheap men's cologne that's borderline expired..." Lol. And just like I thought I knew what my opinion of YSL MP was then, here I am thinking I have an opinion about oud when I haven't even tried it, much less give it a second or third chance to grow on me. The honest truth is I have no idea what it even smells like at all, and I vaguely remember reading somewhere that it comes from a tree. If I'm even remembering that correctly. My mind has associated oud with yucky. Like maybe when I first heard of it I subconciously thought it should have been spelled "eww-d" bc that's what it sounded like to me. Silly, I know

And I still can smell it on me the next day.

I have steered clear of Alien because it has been described as an indolic jasmine centric scent. Muglers in general somehow never interested me. However, after getting more obsessed with frags recently, I decided to try the Essence Absolue flanker because I figured it's the most gourmand of the line with a strong vanilla note and if I could love any of them, this would be the one. Smells like vanilla flavored bug spray to me 😑🤷🏾♀️. It gave me a headache and I ended up scrubbing it. I keep going back and smelling it hoping to like it each time but it hasn't happened yet.

Similar vibes as Alien, Hypnotic Poison and Mia’s Blend. I’ve been wearing it for a week now and I have layered it with Alien and Mia’s Blend. I also layered it with Bottega Veneta. Its very nice and unique. Reviewers says not to over spray it, but I don’t care if I do. It smells so beautiful that I purchased a full sized bottle. I love the smokey powdery amber vanilla in the dry down. It last all day. 🥰. I love unique scents. I heard from one of the reviews that Aura has similar vibe to Decadence.
