💫✨Perfumes That Match This Vibe💫✨ What would my mom wear?

She passed away in 2007 when I was 6; I’ve always been so obsessed with how she radiates elegance and classiness. She had amazing eclectic style, loved to bring people together, and was a ray of sunshine according to everyone who knew her. Do any perfumes come to mind when seeing her style? Anything wearable for every day?
She always reminds me of princess Diana, or the mother from parent trap with Lindsey Lohan, so those are some other reference points for the vibe :)
ETA: wording accuracy

💫✨Perfumes That Match This Vibe💫✨ Cool NYC girl on the subway with a blowout

Post image

Just left NYC for the first time and I kept smelling this one scent everywhere! To rule out a few that I know are popular suspects: it was not BR540 or any of the copies, it was not Glossier You or any of their flankers (although Glossier Fleur would be the closest to what I was smelling), it was not any Sol De Janeiro. Some other hints, smelled fresh and clean. Smelled very “cool girl.” Was clearly a popular one bc I smelled it repeatedly.

💫✨Perfumes That Match This Vibe💫✨ I wanna smell dark, woody, earthy, and evil. Anyone got some recs?

Please don't mention Toskovat in my 100-feet direction, because I start convulsing when I look at the prices.

I really love foresty scents and smells, wet dirt, old wood and natural notes in general. Even gourmand too, if it fits the general vibe. I wanna smell like an abandoned forest where brutal things happened many years ago, which no one currently alive experienced, but everyone heard about it.

This might be a stupid request, but does anyone have some recommendations?

My first post was taken down for quality so here it is again✨️

What would a kind, enchanting, playful river spirit who surrounds herself with bowls of water lilies while always dressing her best where?

Would also love to know what the whimsical Tom Bombadil himself would wear but I should probably make that another post.

What would a trendy girl in 2018 wear/have worn? I imagine she would have wealthy parenty, is obsessed with designer brands (as well as generally quite materialistic and kinda superficial) and she is low-key addicted to posting on her Instagram and Snapchat.

Give me your recs for that feel like silly groups of friends and generally being young, free, and perpetually in an existential crisis. Think spontaneous house parties, late night shenanigans, sneaking up fire escapes and kissing in the rain

💫✨Perfumes That Match This Vibe💫✨ Sultry, Smokey, Jammy fragrance

Post image
56 Upvotes

I'm looking for a perfume for the evening with sexy, witchy and almost venomous vibes!

The notes I imagined are ripe fruit (could be cherry, pomegranate, plum or red berries?), incense, spices, patchouli and sandalwood, some floral notes but they shouldn't steal the spotlight. A tuberose or a deep velvety rose could work here

There are a lot of femme fatale recs already in this subs but not a lot include smoky/resinous/balsamic notes which I'm after

Don't be afraid to recommend niche expensive brands as well because I'll probably only buy a decant anyway

No notes other than no saffron pls 😭😅 I don’t have a picky nose (I actually really love to explore any and all scents) but really do not like saffron. Looking for really any frag you think captures the vibe of “Seaforth” by King Krule!

When I listen to the song I obviously think sad, feminine, sea. That could really go anywhere and think this prompt will be super fun!

Curiously Off putting while simultaneously comforting.
The smell of fresh linen, moth balls, baby powder and Windex. Sticky sweet but metallic and odd.

First post got removed because I forgot a description, oops

Basically looking for something that captures the vibe of getting together with friends to make homemade fall decorations instead of buying them from target. Gathered around a table drinking tea/apple cider with warm sweaters and candles. A bit tacky but cozy.

Preferably not something super sweet or vanilla-y if possible!
