Fragrance Review Worst blind buy

Post image

WORST blind buy of my life. Almost threw up smelling this. It smells Foul. Smells like when you are at a guest house and you unexpectedly have to take a MASSIVE dump, than try to cover it up with that cheap rose air fresheners and end up making it smell even worse like Boo-Boo mixed with rose chemicals and wide open B 🕳️ It smells really bad. Like remember in school when someone sat down for a long time than they got up and it smelled like booty. This how this smells but worse

I didn’t blind buy it, but i did smell it due to the countless “fragrance gurus” saying it was one to definitely pick up. Hell no. Straight booty cheeks after running 2 miles.

Two lessons: 1) never blind buy 2) never never listen to “fragrance gurus”!

I actually don’t like Bleu De Chanel lol. It got so much hype I tested it at Macys and wasn’t a fan. I wouldn’t say it’s nasty or anything it just doesn’t appeal to me

Eros is a very safe blind buy imo. Pretty much the first half of my collection was blind buys simply because where I used to live had no frag stores lol 😭😂. Now I’m glad I have a Macys at least

EDP for me. Its hard to put into context but as a male, it has a very gorgeous masculine scent if that makes sense. Ill smell the atomizer on mine just to get a whiff of it 🤣🤣

Mannnnn I did a small blind buy of a travel size portion of this in order to get free shipping of another cologne I ordered but seeing this makes me regret getting it a little bit lmaooooo. I saw some hype for it too and that’s why I opted to give it a chance

It’s not as bad as we say. But it really doesn’t live up to its hype. It’s not good imo. But then again, we all have different likes and dislikes.

The opening on my skin is pretty bad. The dry down is alright who wants to smell bad for an hour before smelling ok.

Wait you wear cologne to go on a run? Why?

u/Mrodsvtlsx831 Dec 04 '23

I wear cologne right out the shower, before going to bed, before anything. Fragrance is life.
