my favorite perfume has always been killiab angels share. the price point is….suboptimal so ive always just had to resort to trying samples and just smelling it whenever i see it in a store. however, bath and body works came out with a dupe for it a while ago. i bought jt, used it, and eventually grew tired of it. i didnt dislike it, but it was just not for me. I recently smelled angels share again, and it no longer hit the same. It just was way too similar to the dupe and now i wish i had never gotten the dupe because i don’t like the real thing anymore. has this ever happened to any of you?

in most fragrance communities online, when trying to promote or persuade others to try a perfume, they use getting “compliments” as a main selling point, as if the quality of a fragrance is determined by how many compliments from strangers it gets you. Hot take, if I am going about my day and someone compliments my perfume, and they’re not within arms reach of me, I would be mortified. It either means they have a very keen sense of smell, or I sprayed too much. The most likely scenario is that for every one person who thinks you smell nice and compliments you, there are multiple others who are irritated but are not saying anything out of politeness. I collect & wear perform for my own personal enjoyment. not to turn myself into a scent bomb. and if someone is close to me and gets a whiff and compliments, that’s fine, but wearing so much that people far away from you can smell is obnoxious, even if it gets you compliments & should be discouraged by more people in the fragrance community.

I’ll soon be able to do everything ive ever wanted to with my hair. platinum blonde, pastels, neon colors, you name it, with minimal damage

I have well fitting clothes ranging from small to large in my closet. I went thrifting today, and had items ranging from size 6 to size 14 fit me snugly. Vanity sizing makes trying to get new clothes hellish and has totally distorted my view of my body, like am I slim, chubby, or fat? brands, make up your minds please.
