With perfumes, you often discover that something which smells great in the bottle might not smell great on you. Now’s the perfect time to try out some weird ones
Photo: Hulton Deutsch/Corbis via Getty Images I have an astoundingly dumb number of bottles of perfume. It’s something I’ve always loved since I was a teenager, wearing Juice Bar body spray. I’ve gone through many a signature scent, from Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely to, most recently, 19-69’s Rainbow Bar. And the older I get, the more I’m attracted to unique scents that no one else will have.
Strangers Parfumerie “Sangre Dulce” Strangers Parfumerie Sangre Dulce Eau de Parfum $70 Notes: Sangria, rose water, strawberry, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, tobacco, pomegranate, ylang ylang, benzoin, Peru balsam, maple syrup, civet, patchouli, blood orange.How it smelled on me: Initially, I thought it still had a “store that sells decorative scarves and lava lamps” vibe. There’s also a slightly sticky element, like I managed to spill syrup all over myself.
$72 at Nordstrom Buy Penhaglions “Changing Constance” Penhaligon’s Portraits Changing Constance $278 Notes: Cardamom, pimento, salted butter, caramel, tobacco, vanilla, cashmere.How it smelled on my body: It smells amazing off the bat, buttery and floral at the same time. I imagine it’s what Winona Ryder smells like in Martin Scorsese’s The Age of Innocence. It’s really light and fresh, but with a unique note when it starts to fade out. I smell like an heiress.
How in smelled on my body: At first, it reminded me of Irish Spring soap which I don’t totally mind. There’s a distinct laundry scent, and a very masculine musk that’s appealing but isn’t a scent that I think works on me. It’d probably work better on someone I’d want to make out with. $180 at Nordstrom Buy Imaginary Authors “Bull’s Blood” Imaginary Authors Bull’s Blood $95 Notes: Patchouli, rose, costusroot, tobacco, black musk, bull’s blood.
