Hi um buying perfume on the internet is a hobby of mine, so you have any places you recommend? Thanks!!!
yeah definitely!! so for the longest time origins' ginger essence, skylar's fall cashmere, and tokyo milk's honey & the moon have been my go-to's just to like ..... ig give you a feel for the profiles i look for (basically: bright spicy scents, warm spicy scents, and/or woodier gourmands). even though honey & the moon is my go to i've tried other tokyo milk perfumes before and i definitely recommend checking them out if you haven't before!!! it looks like margot elena is having a pretty decent sale on a bunch of their fragrances rn.
i haven't used any other skylar perfumes before but fall cashmere lasts forever on me so i can at least personally recommend the formula!
i only really started looking at indie perfume brands in the past year & so far i've purchased from lunarlifeapothecary & lovesick witchery. i liked the scents i got from lunarlifeapothecary but the shop looks like it's pretty scaled back rn & none of those scents are still available to purchase lmao. but check them out if you want!! the packaging is cute & for roll-on perfume oils they've lasted pretty long on me. but obviously ymmv with that.
lovesick witchery is great though!!! you can choose which formula each scent comes in (perfume oil or EDP) & they have way more sizing options available than most other online indie perfume sellers i've seen. they really offer a ton of cool scents & have a masterlist of all of them + their profiles right here if you want to check that over and see if anything works for you. again, the formula really works for me but that's always something that depends on your own skin so while i recommend it you can always start w samples & see how you feel about them.
PLUS rachel from lovesick witchery makes custom scents, which i haven't tried before but that could be something fun to try if this is a hobby of yours!!
