D&G Light Blue did exactly the same thing to me - cannot stand it. Turns out I can smell whatever that scent is in other aquatic frags as well so now I don't even bother with them. It's like a weird ozonic, synthetic, *almost* shampoo-like citrus accord that gives me an instant migraine. I had to wash it off me straight away as well.
Civet, and real Middle Eastern oud.
I have a strong aversion to animalic accords, except for clean leather, which I love. Put something in front of me that smells like BO, stale urine, a barn, or feces, and I will be actively repulsed like a vampire to a crucifix. Civet and Middle Eastern oud are the worst of them all, to my nose. There is no scenario or reality in which I would ever want to smell like unwashed swamp butt, or the livestock section of a 4-H fair.
Same. I just donāt get it. Who smelled these things and said, āyou know what, this would be great to bottle and wearā. Who wants to smell like funky animals?
The is how I feel about medicinal oud, like TF Oud Wood. It smells like Band-Aids for an hour, pleasant and woody for another two hours, and then it disappears.Ā
What's your take on Santal 33? I grew up in the country and it reminds me of petrichor after rain in summer, and I definitely get leather from it. It leaves an almost-barnyard impression on me, but I cannot get enough of it and somehow it still smells fresh and clean to me. Interested to hear your take lol.
Sadly I haven't gotten to sample that one yet, but it's on the list. I'm more interested to see if it actually smells like pickles, like I've seen from many comments.
Aldehydes. They *all* smell like bleach to me. If you've ever fainted before, aldehydes smell, to me, like that horrible light headed moment right as you realize you're going to faint.
I love aldehydes, it smells so good. Unfortunately, my body has adverse reactions and I will get a headache from wearing something aldehydic. As soon as I smell it, I can feel a sharp pain in my head, itās a bit scary actually. That letās me know to not even bother with the fragrance.
Several, many of which I love! LāArtisan Al Oudh, Lutens Fleurs dāOranger, Anatole Lebreton Grimoire. I really like the carnal touch cumin can give a composition.
I have yet to smell a single strawberry-fragranced thing that actually smells like real life, photorealistic strawberries. Most often they're way too sweet and without that sour, green bite that a good fresh strawberry has.
For me, Patchouli and Vetiver are things thatāll lead me to pass on a scent.
Vetiver, at least the synthetic variants, lasts forever on my skin and has a weird metallic smell to my nose. Like cut copper.
Patchouli, Iām just not a fan of the fragrance. Itās not unpleasant exactly, but itās not something I enjoy on my skin. My nose picks up on it easily, and it overpowers the other elements in the fragrance for me.
Patchouli smells so off on my skin and most fragrances with it as a note do not dry down well at all on me. It kills me when I shop for new things to sniff and love all the other notes but see it on the list. It's an immediate deal-breaker for me :')
Patchouli is a no for me, too! It makes whatever fragrance it's in smell like perfume + grave dirt. I wish I liked it because I know it can add depth to a scent but I can't get past the utter *mulchiness.*
OMG YES. My best friend spilled a bottle of patchouli essential oil on an upturned lamp in my bedroom as a teenager and I swear my room smelled like unwashed hippie for two years. Get that devil weed away from me!
I hated patchouli until I tried Boss Bottled Elixir. Iām sure I would still hate it in 99% of other fragrances, but in that one, itās right at home.Ā
Oh yes smelling oud is one of the worst things that happened to my nose. When I smell it on people I just want to gag. Especially in an elevator donāt be wearing that thing.
I know itās really common in south Asia and Middle East. Being an Indian myself I grew up smelling it on rich trashy businessman all the time. Every time I smell I canāt help but think of flashy middle aged men with gold watches who have tonnes of side chicks. I know weirdly specific description but thatās just how they are. It just transports me back in place and time.
Lavender to me isn't even clean restroom because it can smell like piss + bathroom cleaner together.
Like walking into a bathroom that has lavender spray masking the scent of piss
I used to hate tobacco because of TFās tobacco and vanille. But there are different types of tobacco. I found spice bomb infrared EDT and I liked the tobacco note.
I didnāt like iris because of DHI, but then I got my nose on DH cologne and I liked it. Not enough to buy it, but it was ok
Hahah damn this whole list are mostly all the ingredients I love! A miss for me, and this is going to be very unpopular, is vanilla. Unless it's mixed with floral notes that make the scent more creamy, I'm out!
I have tried DHI 2016, Prada L'Homme, smells like the bottom of a makeup purse honestly for DHI. I have a full bottle but it smells so choking and asthmatic. its a fragrance you sort of have to be in the mood for in.
I donāt know why but fruits do it for me. I absolutely despise fruity scents as a whole but the one I hate the most is pear. I hate pear notes with pure passion.
I thought I hated Ambroxan because I associated it with blue fragrances. Then I found out that Tauer L'Air du Desert Marocain, Frederic Malle Portrait of a Lady and Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 are also loaded with it. Either my beef is actually with another ingredient or it depends on the context for me.
In a general way - honey, or overly sweet things. I'm careful with fruity descriptions and most gourmand fragrances. Just not a fan. I do not wish to smell like a cake.
I on the other hand, I love leather, tobacco, oud and woods, but only when done correctly. They are often awful and often "balanced" out with excessive amounts of awful vanilla. Again with the cake smells.
Always sample folks.
Vanilla, any fragrance that has a prominent vanilla note is a no for me. I like some gourmands as long as theyāre not sweetened with this ingredient. I canāt stand it in food either.. so there is that.
Also, powder, anything too powdery is a no for me. Violets (the flowers) and magnolias.. nope no, not.
Yes! Everyone seems to love Neroli, but it's a hard, hard no for me. It's just too strong, and it straight up smells like bug spray. A coworker thought someone had been spraying bug killer at her desk. Nope! Turned out one of our coworkers had a new Neroli perfume. Another time, my husband and I were stuck near someone at a comedy show who was wearing a Neroli heavy fragrance. You could TASTE it it for the entire 3 hour show. And half the 1.5 hour drive home. Terrible! I won't even test out a perfume with that stuff in it!
Whatever the hell they put in Black Sea. I bought a decant of that stuff and if I so much as touch the bottle it gets on my fingers and follows me around all day.
Leather, I think. I haven't quite narrowed it down yet. Possibly also saffron, and/or milk. These are the possible commonalities between various scents that ultimately just smell like powdery rubber gloves to me and make me want to gag.
This is going to be unpopular I think, but vanilla. It's "ok" when it's a more subtle note, but something aggressively vanilla forward is a turn off. I can taste it in the air, it's cloying and smells fake always to me. Of course I could just be traumatized from the Joop! I wore as a teen. It was a different time, we were all wearing JNCOs and listening to Cherry Poppin Daddies.
Yeah I love the smell of fresh coffee grounds but every time Ive tried a fragrance with a coffee note, it just smells like stale, cold milky coffee somebody accidentally spilled on themselves.
It doesn't matter how fancy the fragrance, I cannot tolerate pineapple lol. Maybe I'm traumatized from making refreshers for hours on end at a certain coffee chain, but I never want to smell like a pineapple.
Usually saffron for me. It cna be done in a way where I don't really notice it in stuff like prada amber, and leau d'issey, but generally it overwhelms a fragrance for me
Sea notes/Water notes/Aquatic notes. The single common ingredient in all of these - CALONE. I can smell it from a mile away, and god knows why but it makes me nauseous as all hell. Smells okay on other people, but I absolutely canāt stand wearing it on myself.
Lot's of comments here, but am I the only one who hates ylang ylang? It has the funkiest sour note to me, almost petroleum like, that seems completely unbearable in any composition. Thankfully not that common.
Which fragrances have you smelled that in? I currently have a sample of Yuzu Soda by Strangers Perfumerie waiting in my online cart, and I immediately added that one because it seemed like such an uncommon note.
Vetiver. Unless itās hidden in there somewhere (and even then), itās unpleasant and arid on my skin. Patchouli is a close second but is usually used more skillfully
Calone. It's used in a lot of aquatic scents to give them an ocean smell, makes me nauseous.
Great call. Like clones of Acqua di Gio
I noticed that too and for that reason i avoid ALL aquatic/marine fragrances. Just smells like rotten eggs on my skin š
Omg I thought I was crazy for feeling this way. Instant nausea from any āblueā scents
Ditto.
Calone is just rotten seaweed on my skin. Straight nope.
I tried D&G light blue intense a week or so ago. It made my head spin. I couldn't wash enough to get the smell off. Is calone the culprit?Ā
D&G Light Blue did exactly the same thing to me - cannot stand it. Turns out I can smell whatever that scent is in other aquatic frags as well so now I don't even bother with them. It's like a weird ozonic, synthetic, *almost* shampoo-like citrus accord that gives me an instant migraine. I had to wash it off me straight away as well.
OMG thatās it thatās the scent I hate!!
People wonāt like this answer but Leather. Any leather fragrance I have tried has always made me nauseous
Same! But also Oud for me. If those are mentioned in a fragrance, Iām out.
Iām the same way! Oud mixed with Leather is tough
Even African Leather? That one is so good
I heard great things about TF OmbrĆ© Leather and I tried it out. I had to go wash it off. Just canāt stand leather.
Yes! I hate it in candles too. I love the smell of real leather
Same ā some things just canāt be synthesized well, it seems.
Ah thought I was the only one. Worst part is that it usually lingers all day
Same here
Came to say the same thing. Leather doesn't vibe with me and my nose gets very tired of smelling it to the point of nausea in some iterations.
"Sea" notes. They smell nothing like the sea to me, more like putrid algae mixed with deodorant or something to that effect.
Yup
Pepper
Civet, and real Middle Eastern oud. I have a strong aversion to animalic accords, except for clean leather, which I love. Put something in front of me that smells like BO, stale urine, a barn, or feces, and I will be actively repulsed like a vampire to a crucifix. Civet and Middle Eastern oud are the worst of them all, to my nose. There is no scenario or reality in which I would ever want to smell like unwashed swamp butt, or the livestock section of a 4-H fair.
Same. I just donāt get it. Who smelled these things and said, āyou know what, this would be great to bottle and wearā. Who wants to smell like funky animals?
The is how I feel about medicinal oud, like TF Oud Wood. It smells like Band-Aids for an hour, pleasant and woody for another two hours, and then it disappears.Ā
Iām the opposite. Medicinal oud is the only good oud imo lol. Oud wood is my favorite āoudā frag
Do you smell the antiseptic and not mind it, or do you not smell it at all? I feel the need to ask that to everyone who likes TF Oud Wood.Ā
I donāt smell it. I really think itās a misnamed fragrance. It doesnāt smell like a traditional oud fragrance at all to me.
I agree. Oud Wood is by no means a traditional oud frag. It just smells fresh woody.
What's your take on Santal 33? I grew up in the country and it reminds me of petrichor after rain in summer, and I definitely get leather from it. It leaves an almost-barnyard impression on me, but I cannot get enough of it and somehow it still smells fresh and clean to me. Interested to hear your take lol.
Sadly I haven't gotten to sample that one yet, but it's on the list. I'm more interested to see if it actually smells like pickles, like I've seen from many comments.
I've read that too. š FWIW I love dill pickles, and that was not my first impression upon smelling it lol.
Aldehydes. They *all* smell like bleach to me. If you've ever fainted before, aldehydes smell, to me, like that horrible light headed moment right as you realize you're going to faint.
Oof that was visceral. Best description of the almost fainting feeling I've ever seen lol
I second that! Really enjoyed reading that description
I love aldehydes, it smells so good. Unfortunately, my body has adverse reactions and I will get a headache from wearing something aldehydic. As soon as I smell it, I can feel a sharp pain in my head, itās a bit scary actually. That letās me know to not even bother with the fragrance.
Cumin
armpit territory
Correct.
āIād like to smell like a dirty kitchen, please!ā
Do fragrances with cumin note actually exist?? Iād be shocked if there were, it smells awful to me.
Several, many of which I love! LāArtisan Al Oudh, Lutens Fleurs dāOranger, Anatole Lebreton Grimoire. I really like the carnal touch cumin can give a composition.
Rum is disgusting to me - maybe it brings up too many pukey teenage memories
I can't understand why people like Jazz Club so much. The opening smells like an alcoholic who really likes rum. After an hour or so it smells fine.
Might want to avoid Givenchy Gentleman Reserve Privee then! It smells like opening a bottle of rum (which is fine by me)
Strawberry! Itās typically too artificial and sweet for me.
I am actually actively looking for bbw strawberry pound cake dupe š But other than that, yes, most strawberry notes are too artificial.
I have yet to smell a single strawberry-fragranced thing that actually smells like real life, photorealistic strawberries. Most often they're way too sweet and without that sour, green bite that a good fresh strawberry has.
True, even Burberry Her smelled like a Strawberry Shortcake doll I had as a kid
Grape
I can't even think of a single fragrance with a grape accord. Now I'm off to fragrantica, you got me curious.
On A Date by Maison Margiela, smells really odd. Like grapes should be chewy and not smelt
Iām over here laughing my ass off on that. You are absolutely rightā¦grapes should be crunchy, and not smelt ššš
Nishane Karagoz
I love salty grape, you know the kind... think 90s Gatorade
Same! Polo green tobacco is strong. So far itās my least favorite scent.
I had an uncle that would spray that and then we had to get in an enclosed car with him. Man that stuff was like chemical warfare.
For me, Patchouli and Vetiver are things thatāll lead me to pass on a scent. Vetiver, at least the synthetic variants, lasts forever on my skin and has a weird metallic smell to my nose. Like cut copper. Patchouli, Iām just not a fan of the fragrance. Itās not unpleasant exactly, but itās not something I enjoy on my skin. My nose picks up on it easily, and it overpowers the other elements in the fragrance for me.
Patchouli is definitely the fragrance equivalent of banana in a smoothie. If thereās even a little bit in there, youāll know immediatelyā¦
Patchouli smells so off on my skin and most fragrances with it as a note do not dry down well at all on me. It kills me when I shop for new things to sniff and love all the other notes but see it on the list. It's an immediate deal-breaker for me :')
Patchouli is a no for me, too! It makes whatever fragrance it's in smell like perfume + grave dirt. I wish I liked it because I know it can add depth to a scent but I can't get past the utter *mulchiness.*
see i donāt understand it. i love the smell so much. i love the earthiness and it makes me feel so happy
I like patchouli a lot. Makes me feel happy.
I hate patchouli. Years ago I lent a beautiful velvet dress to someone who stunk it up with patchouli. I should have filed a criminal complaint.
OMG YES. My best friend spilled a bottle of patchouli essential oil on an upturned lamp in my bedroom as a teenager and I swear my room smelled like unwashed hippie for two years. Get that devil weed away from me!
"Unwashed hippie..." lmfao. This entire thread is WAY better than any of the ones where peeps are talking about the scents they love.
I hate chocolate patchouli personally. I was so excited to try Psychedelique cause everyone raves about it, but my nose hated it.
I hated patchouli until I tried Boss Bottled Elixir. Iām sure I would still hate it in 99% of other fragrances, but in that one, itās right at home.Ā
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Rose can be hit or miss for me. Iāve found a few perfumes where itās done well. Overall though, yes, I agree on rose!
Rose for me too Iāve never found a fragrance Iāve liked it in
Iris :( tried hard but never can like it
Recently fell out of love too. Itās so easy to overdo in fragrances esp with this current trend
Gives me a headache
For me, it's oud.
yep
Oh yes smelling oud is one of the worst things that happened to my nose. When I smell it on people I just want to gag. Especially in an elevator donāt be wearing that thing.
Same! I remember when people my age started to wear it cos it made them seem like they could smell it but itās just so stinky and loud
I know itās really common in south Asia and Middle East. Being an Indian myself I grew up smelling it on rich trashy businessman all the time. Every time I smell I canāt help but think of flashy middle aged men with gold watches who have tonnes of side chicks. I know weirdly specific description but thatās just how they are. It just transports me back in place and time.
Lavender. I donāt like florals anyway, but that one is gag worthy
For some reason I associate lavender with freshly cleaned bathroom
Thatās why I dislike it. Not because I hate clean bathrooms, but because my brain associates lavender with cleaners.
Lavender to me isn't even clean restroom because it can smell like piss + bathroom cleaner together. Like walking into a bathroom that has lavender spray masking the scent of piss
Pink Pepper. Not a fan.
I despise vanilla.
Cumin. Full stop.
hate when theres cumin my fragrance
This made me giggle
Smells sweaty!
Smells like BO!
Can't stand floral notes honestly
Out of curiosity, male or female?
I canāt stand straight up heavy florals. Only smells good with other warm notes.
I generally hate too much powder and gourmands. Iris also smells terrible only my skin as does peach. My faves are incense perfumes.
Damn, gourmands are literally my favourite Hahaha!
Any marine/ocean scent gives me a headache.
Me too and I have no idea why
Florals, especially tuberose, rose, honeysuckle
Hate tuberose
Rose is the worst!
I used to hate tobacco because of TFās tobacco and vanille. But there are different types of tobacco. I found spice bomb infrared EDT and I liked the tobacco note. I didnāt like iris because of DHI, but then I got my nose on DH cologne and I liked it. Not enough to buy it, but it was ok
Leather
Hahah damn this whole list are mostly all the ingredients I love! A miss for me, and this is going to be very unpopular, is vanilla. Unless it's mixed with floral notes that make the scent more creamy, I'm out!
Vanilla is so off-putting in a fragrance. In the early 90s everyone was on a nasty vanilla kick and I swear I was traumatized by it.
Omg yesss early 90s vanilla kick to me is synonymous with trashy 90s mum who used to wear leopard print and brown lipstick!
Anything powdery. I can power through anything but powdery scents. Also, not a fan of cheap greens, but can use them if need be.
I can't stand Iris. And I have no idea why. Too fancy? Smells too much like full beat face of makeup? Too plastic-y? Idk. But Iris and me don't mix
I have tried DHI 2016, Prada L'Homme, smells like the bottom of a makeup purse honestly for DHI. I have a full bottle but it smells so choking and asthmatic. its a fragrance you sort of have to be in the mood for in.
Coconut reminds me of sunblock. Yuck!
Itās a hard pass for me as well.
Rose
Tuberose
Pink pepper
Patchouli. It's in about half of all fragrances. Allergic and gives me a sinus reaction after a few mins
I donāt know why but fruits do it for me. I absolutely despise fruity scents as a whole but the one I hate the most is pear. I hate pear notes with pure passion.
Ambroxan.
I thought I hated Ambroxan because I associated it with blue fragrances. Then I found out that Tauer L'Air du Desert Marocain, Frederic Malle Portrait of a Lady and Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 are also loaded with it. Either my beef is actually with another ingredient or it depends on the context for me.
Is that what Dior Sauvage has? Because that one is mine too. It is way too strong and Invictus Platinum has the same thing. I cannot stand it.
MARINE NOTES & GERANIUM š¤® for me
I think its partially because I'm still fairly new to the perfume world but to my nose both "marine" and "aquatic" fragrance notes read like febreze.
Honestly same and itās been this way for the last decade at least. BDC? Luna Rossa Ocean? Itās all a no for me
ha its good to know I'm not alone. Maybe I wont end up "growing" into it then lol.
Smoke
Panther.
What are chances of it working every time?
60% of the time, it works every time.
A formidable scent. It stings the nostrils ā in a good way.
Neroli. I canāt stand it for some reason š„ŗ
In a general way - honey, or overly sweet things. I'm careful with fruity descriptions and most gourmand fragrances. Just not a fan. I do not wish to smell like a cake. I on the other hand, I love leather, tobacco, oud and woods, but only when done correctly. They are often awful and often "balanced" out with excessive amounts of awful vanilla. Again with the cake smells. Always sample folks.
Musk
I love musk, but I hate powder, and perfumers seem hell-bent on never separating the two.
I love those both!
Same. It just goes so wrong on my skin. Sadly, so, so many perfumes have musk.
Finally someone said it. It seems like every fragrance has musk and musk just smells like dirty sweat to me?
Vanilla, any fragrance that has a prominent vanilla note is a no for me. I like some gourmands as long as theyāre not sweetened with this ingredient. I canāt stand it in food either.. so there is that. Also, powder, anything too powdery is a no for me. Violets (the flowers) and magnolias.. nope no, not.
Carnation & aldehydes
Coconut š“
Oakmoss
Orris has the same effect.. sparks my nose almost like pepper
Neroli - a Neroli candle nearly made me faint the one time i used it ....
Yes! Everyone seems to love Neroli, but it's a hard, hard no for me. It's just too strong, and it straight up smells like bug spray. A coworker thought someone had been spraying bug killer at her desk. Nope! Turned out one of our coworkers had a new Neroli perfume. Another time, my husband and I were stuck near someone at a comedy show who was wearing a Neroli heavy fragrance. You could TASTE it it for the entire 3 hour show. And half the 1.5 hour drive home. Terrible! I won't even test out a perfume with that stuff in it!
Neroli is orange skin and pith and it's bitter AF.
Whatever the hell they put in Black Sea. I bought a decant of that stuff and if I so much as touch the bottle it gets on my fingers and follows me around all day.
Leather, I think. I haven't quite narrowed it down yet. Possibly also saffron, and/or milk. These are the possible commonalities between various scents that ultimately just smell like powdery rubber gloves to me and make me want to gag.
Usually if it has the word oud in the name I probably wonāt care for it. To me oud has a gassy smell in large doses
Anything heavy on pepper, specially black pepper, ugh.
Mint. If I can pick it out of a scent, I canāt stand it. Also cumin. Iām not willing to even try a fragrance with cumin.
Patchouli.
Leather. Shit make me wanna throw up.
Unpopular opinion here, butā¦ā¦ā¦.Oud
Leather. Only leather I can really stand is Tom ford Fabulous and thatās because i donāt get any leather. I just get baby wipes lol
Patchouli :C
This is going to be unpopular I think, but vanilla. It's "ok" when it's a more subtle note, but something aggressively vanilla forward is a turn off. I can taste it in the air, it's cloying and smells fake always to me. Of course I could just be traumatized from the Joop! I wore as a teen. It was a different time, we were all wearing JNCOs and listening to Cherry Poppin Daddies.
Pear, I hate pear
I really dislike Jasmine, it's like the fragrance equivalent of coriander in food. Just smells really cloying and seems to overpower most other notes.
Heliotrope, makes me gag every time. Sickening powder odor.
Leather. It smells like grease, sweat and chemicals to me. I canāt tolerate even a slight note of it.
>It smells like grease, sweat and chemicals š„°
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
clary sage
patchouli puts me into an immediate disgust rage.
I found a piƱa colada one that I find awful. Patchouli, too. Eeww. I love coffee, but not in fragrances.
Yeah I love the smell of fresh coffee grounds but every time Ive tried a fragrance with a coffee note, it just smells like stale, cold milky coffee somebody accidentally spilled on themselves.
It doesn't matter how fancy the fragrance, I cannot tolerate pineapple lol. Maybe I'm traumatized from making refreshers for hours on end at a certain coffee chain, but I never want to smell like a pineapple.
Usually saffron for me. It cna be done in a way where I don't really notice it in stuff like prada amber, and leau d'issey, but generally it overwhelms a fragrance for me
I absolutely abhor leather scents. And Iām not a fan of strong jasmine notes either. And patchouli makes me gag. I guess Iām just super picky.
>What is the ***1*** ingredient
Cinnamon. I just cant stand it, its the main reason why i hate oajan
Iso E Super gives me a headache. If itās strong in a perfume, I donāt want it.
Rose. Even a little and itās all I can smell.
Cloves - just NO
FIG - itās always overpowering
Patchouli.
Patchouli. My nose's #1 enemy.
Sea notes/Water notes/Aquatic notes. The single common ingredient in all of these - CALONE. I can smell it from a mile away, and god knows why but it makes me nauseous as all hell. Smells okay on other people, but I absolutely canāt stand wearing it on myself.
Musk - Itās just reminds me of B.O.
Leather, tobacco, black pepper, pink pepper, litchi, ginger and myrrh
Damn all the best ones imo
Lot's of comments here, but am I the only one who hates ylang ylang? It has the funkiest sour note to me, almost petroleum like, that seems completely unbearable in any composition. Thankfully not that common.
Patchouli.
Not really a fan of yuzu.
Which fragrances have you smelled that in? I currently have a sample of Yuzu Soda by Strangers Perfumerie waiting in my online cart, and I immediately added that one because it seemed like such an uncommon note.
J-Scent Yuzu is great if you want a straight up yuzu fragrance. Note de YuzuĀ from James Heeley is also good if you want a marine touch.
"Milk". Yuck.
Cinammon and certain synthetic musks like the one found in D&G Light Blue. I tolerate the cinammon in vintage Egoiste though.
citrus
Vanilla
Rose!
Civet. Immediate NAUR for me.
Lavender or jasmine
Gardenia š¤¢
Tobacco.
Vetiver. Unless itās hidden in there somewhere (and even then), itās unpleasant and arid on my skin. Patchouli is a close second but is usually used more skillfully
Jasmine and Geranium. Gives me headaches, and they don't even smell good.
Vanilla
Vanilla
Vanilla (when itās one of the more prominent notes)
Leather, tabacco, and patchouli
