Your Latest Fragrance Purchase

Let me tell you something - these just arrived and they are a steal for the price - I didn’t have any expectations - given that they were $20 - but they smell natural. My only problem is that they smell exactly like their cocktails. Now I already have a much more expensive version of a Caipirinha like scent from L’Artisan Perfumeur - but this one is great as well. These are so realistic - probably won’t wear them while driving lol

I looked a little into Demeter -just because I thought for the price - and that they are into novelty scents - that I could pick something up for Aidan - so I think I’m going to get him a cotton candy, tropical dots (like the candy from movie theaters), and watermelon jolly ranchers.

They seem to have over 100 scents - some really bizarre - Funeral Home (like really?) and Frozen pond (which has earth note listed) - But they have a lot of boozy ones - and I figure for the price - if I’m going to the pool this would be good ones to wear or go with some of my fun summer soaps.

Sounds interesting , was that 20 a piece or for the pair?
 
@Scuttlesoap I just found their website and thought I would mention they have an earth day sampler pack for 25 bucks.. Also wanted to say they have a Coffee scent for our coffee guys !!

I had to edit to add something !!

If you have been wanting to have a scent made they have a create your own signature scent so you could have them CUSTOM make a scent for you.. IE maybe something that's out of production now...

Yep, It says they have over 300 scents...
They have a set that I bet @Spider would like , its called Zombie Trio 1 oz Set Zombie Trio 1 oz Set - Zombie Trio 1 oz Set !!!!!!

Here is the intro of them....

Limited edition, available for a short time only.

Just because you’re dead, doesn’t mean you have to smell bad.

You’re a Zombie. Or you know a Zombie. Or you might become a Zombie at any moment.
Any way you slice and dice it, you need a different kind of fragrance. Fragrances that can make
the living pass for dead without overwhelming, and the dead simply pass without offending.

And now, the Zombie Apocalypse is ready for your dog, too.


Here are the descriptions of that set...

ZOMBIE FOR HIM
Death and Decay on the forest floor. Zombie for Him is a combination of dead and dying vegetation, mushrooms, mildew, moss and earth. Not for the faint of heart, if you still have one.

ZOMBIE FOR HER
Think forest floor. Zombie for Her is a combination of dried leaves, mushrooms, mildew, moss and earth. And for the feminine touch we’ve added a little bit of dregs from the bottom of the wine barrel.

ZOMBIE DOG
Zombie Dog is more than Death and Decay on the forest floor. Yes, we have the standard Zombie combination of dead and dying vegetation, mushrooms, mildew, moss and earth. But Zombie Dog, Man's Best Friend, deserves something more, so much more... SMOKED BACON!

Those definitely sound like right up Spider‘s alley
 
Darn these good deals I keep finding!

Have one of these on the way:

Caused a lot of upset when it hit because it’s not classic Dior Homme at all…but people have evidently come around and now label it a good all-rounder.

Only one more to hunt for my Homme collection…going to stop with Cologne…pretty sure anyway… 😂🤫
 
It's time to start adding to my lighter more sunshiny scents.
This is very much a classic cologne, with a strong orangey opening, great longevity for a cologne and a incense/leather drydown that is nicely subtle, and somehow keep the citrus feel alive. No florals in this cologne, which though I don't mind a floral touch, I don't always want it, and thus find this a very welcome addition to the collection. I'm sure it will get a lot of play this season.
I guess a bit pricey for a cologne, but IMO worth it.
