Just some of the samples I’ve ordered….more on their way. I may have taken the “treat yourself” a bit too far this time

Tauer Perfumes - Geranium Absolue (2026) I do have a predisposition for geranium, but I would recommend this to just about anyone. Delightfully green and fresh, with just the right amount of vanilla sweetness, the whole geranium flower comes to life. I sense a full bottle purchase coming. Sigh.

I’ve never been. The closest I get is San Francisco. I really need to make it to LA!

I love that this exists and that you have it. RIP Bob Mackie.

I went on a rampage of buying perfume samples and discovery sets, and 2 full bottles. Sniff season is upon us.

I would have never guessed a suede/leather scent coming through with that pyramid

Got my nose on this new released from Frederic Malle yesterday. Overall, I wasn’t impressed. Some interesting spices, but then became rubbery upon dry-down. Neither adventurous nor cozy.

Huh…am I into “soapy” perfumes now? Didn’t see that coming!

On it’s own, Monte Kush (Extra Virgo) leaned a bit too hard into cannabis and rosemary for my liking. Layered with IDKW (DS & Durga) tempers the greenery, and combined become a very exotic floral that is absolutely delightful. Took me some time to unlock the right pairing. #fragrancesky #perfume

If you get apple, then there’s apple! I’m going to try it out!

I never heard of Dark Tales. I’m now looking at their site and they seem fascinating!

The Geneva Fragrance Collection @gvafragcollection.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

That sounds excellent! But I’m looking at the build and I don’t see any Apple notes… am I looking at the right one?

The Geneva Fragrance Collection @gvafragcollection.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

I’ve read a lot about the Pineward Apple. Does the apple note stay after the dry-down? I need to look into Chris Collins Apple.

I feel this. Heat waves make my tobacco scents smell like an ashtray

This seems very close to what I’ve been hunting for. I’ll have to see where I can try it out.

I’m struggling to find an apple-forward perfume for autumn. Most perfumes seem to either go heavily into vanilla or wood (which, are fine, but not what I’m looking for). I really want a juicy apple accord that stays for the dry-down, even if other notes are part of the story. #perfumesky

Excellent choices!! Did you consider Animal Cafe by Extra Virgo?

I broke my own rules and blind-bought a bottle of “London Fog” by Brandt, and I have 0 regrets. The lactonic and earl grey melange is the perfect level of saccharine, and the way the fresh green notes linger after dry down ensures that this sweetness never becomes cloying. #fragrancesky

Phew… life got busy, blinked and suddenly it’s been months since I’ve been on Bluesky. Since then, bought a few more nice perfumes, tested samples… How is everyone? #fragrancesky #perfumesky

BDK Parfums - Vanille Caviar (2025) A peculiar blend of domestic warmth and flamboyant panache. Homemade vanilla pudding paired with opulent boozy notes - kir royale, imbibed while in pyjamas. The perfume is “hygge” and “raffinatezza” distilled. What a feat. #perfumesky #fragrancesky #scentsky

Real life has gotten in the way of my usual perfume exploration for the past month. Hate when that happens. #perfumesky #scentsky

Ode Ona - Moonkissed Rhapsody (2025) I fell in love with this soft, drowsy lavender musk wrapped in hay and a trace of vetiver — I found it soothing, like a faded old sweater that you put on in the morning. No one else seemed to notice; they just called it meh. #fragrancesky #perfumesky #scentsky

Thank you so much!! ♥️ I will be ordering them online, unfortunately I won’t have much time to go to shops.

I would appreciate any advice on perfume discovery sets by US based niche perfume houses. I will be in the US at the end of the year, and want to take advantage to get some samples of perfumes I can’t get (easily) here in Europe. Thank you!! #perfumesky #fragrancesky #scentsky

I feel like TF Tobacco Vanille is *the* point of reference for this scent profile - and with good reason, it’s flawless.

I’m loving the reviews of this perfume, someone described it as “being punched in the face” 😂 I love that there is an apple note!

I live for chocolate too, but I need it in solid form, in my mouth. Smelling it only just drives me wild!

I’m not huge into chocolate gourmands, since they usually just make me hungry all day. But I do appreciate that this one has some complexity to it with the fruity florals

Creed - Fragaria (2025) Something between stale strawberry bubble gum and some type of medicinal syrup for children. I can’t imagine who this would be for. It’s not off-putting or cloying, but if it were it may have actually been more interesting. #perfumesky #scentsky #fragrancesky

It’s a really beautiful floral leather. It just seems to hit that sweet spot of being perfect for any occasion.

The three I own are AlUla, Endymion concentré, and Terrible Teddy. Endymion is a huge compliment grabber. “The Inimitable William” is also on my list as one I would consider buying.

I really enjoy Penhaligon’s. I have a few full bottles, and always give their new scents a sniff when I find them
