martinezjessica+FollowLooking for: A Perfume That Smells Like an Old LibraryAnyone know a scent that really smells like wood bookshelves and old pages? Not just sweet sandalwood — I mean real dusty-library vibes. Tried a few “library”-themed perfumes, but they didn’t hit the mark. Still searching for that cozy, quiet, wooden-shelf-and-vintage-book smell. #beauty #fragrance #perfumehelp #libraryscent #fragrancechat #nicheperfume00Share
martinezjessica+FollowHow to Tell If a Perfume Is Good1.Smell it. 2.See how long it lasts. 3.Check the ingredients. But the real answer? Just smell more perfumes. The more you smell, the better you’ll know what’s good. Same as eating — try enough, and you’ll get it. #beauty #fragrance #smellslikehome544Share
martinezjessica+FollowAny fellow green grass scent lovers out there? 🌿🚗I once bought an IKEA green grass diffuser for my car… My dad sniffed it, said “hmm, nice,” and stole it. I missed the scent so much I went hunting on Fragrantica. Ended up blind-buying Guerlain Herba Fresca — couldn’t afford the pricier Herbes Troublantes from their exclusive line. This one? Definitely grassy. Think fresh-cut stems, a bit of crushed mint, even a hint of earthy roots. Very refreshing, but heads up: the opening smells exactly like mint toothpaste 😂 #beauty #fragrance #greenscent #grassyvibes 20Share
martinezjessica+FollowWhat perfume do I wear most? Depends on the day, honestly.Weekdays it’s usually Davidoff Cool Water Men. Safe, fresh, no drama. I’ve worn it for years — smells like “let’s just get through the day.” Weekends I switch to YSL Opium. No one ever says it smells good. I love that. I hate the whole “boy-magnet perfume” thing anyway. Why should I smell like someone else’s idea of cute? Once, in Melbourne by the ocean, I wore D&G Light Blue and felt like the color pale blue. Wind in my hair, sunscreen half rubbed in, perfect. TF Black Orchid is my going-out scent now — with Cherry Lush lipstick. That combo makes me feel a little dangerous. And sometimes, it’s just Chanel Bleu, sprayed on a winter coat. Something about men’s cologne in cold weather feels… grounding. I guess I do like masculine scents more. Always have. #beauty #fragrance #smellslikehome101Share

martinezjessica+Follow❓ What’s a Tester Perfume?Just found out not all perfumes are sold in those pretty full boxes with shiny caps. So here’s the deal: “Tester” perfumes = the big bottles they use at stores for people to try. They’re real, same juice, but usually no fancy box or cap. Just a plain cardboard box. Sometimes even says “not for sale” on the bottle. Brands don’t sell them officially, but people still get their hands on them and resell online. Perfect if you’re buying for yourself and don’t care about the packaging. Not great for gifts—unless your friend enjoys saving money more than unboxing. Tip: skip testers for perfumes like Anna Sui’s fairy bottle—half the charm is the cap. #beauty #fragrance #testerperfume33Share
martinezjessica+Follow🍊 Blood Orange, Blush, and a BiteLira by Xerjoff – Smelled this thinking it’d be a full-on dessert vibe. It’s not. More like: blood orange, sugar dust, a flower on the table. Kinda girly, kinda fancy, but not edible. If you want thick vanilla and cream, this won’t do it. This one smells nice, looks pretty, and keeps its distance. Like a girl who shows up, smiles, and leaves early. #beauty #fragrance #softbite10Share
martinezjessica+FollowWho Says a Man Can’t Love CakeKerosene Unknown Pleasures – It hits like a lemon pound cake covered in powdered sugar. Super sweet, no shame about it. Then it shifts—Earl Grey tea sneaks in, makes it calmer, less sticky. People say it’s “too sweet for guys,” but I imagine muddy boots, chipped mugs, someone licking frosting off his thumb. Softness can be cool too. #beauty #fragrance #genderlessgourmand150Share
martinezjessica+FollowIt Smelled Like Cake. Then It Left.Akro Bake – Smelled it and instantly got: lemon curd + whipped cream. Like walking past a bakery window full of tiny frosted cupcakes. Delicious—but short-lived. An hour later it’s gone. Like someone ate the last one before you even ordered. Checked my sleeve—nothing. Just butter-scented memories. #beauty #fragrance #smellslikecake131Share
