Exploring My Perfume Collection

my perfume collection

Now you may be thinking.. Melissa, thats far too many perfumes and my reply it’s not that much (There is always room for more) haha! If I told you this time last year that I only had 4 perfumes in my collection would you be shocked? Well, it’s true. Last year I had 4 perfumes in my collection and that was over the course of 7 years. I didn’t really go for perfumes before that because I didn’t wear perfume much, now I can’t leave my house without dosing myself in perfume!

Last year, I started seeing different perfumes on TikTok, and I purchased Lattafa Yara. The perfume addict inside me awakened! From March last year until now, here is where my collection is at. I am shocked myself sometimes haha!!

I never really heard of Arab perfume brands before but over the last few months I have collected a fair few and wow! So many of them are divine!

Which perfume was on your wishlist the longest?

I remember leaving school when I was 15 with my school friends to have coffee, after that, we went to Frasers and looked at perfumes and I fell in love with ‘Guerlain Insolence’. I forgot its name for years but finally got it 19 years later as a gift for myself. Teenage Melissa would be so happy. It’s like walking in a violet garden on a warm summer day.

Which were your original 4 perfumes?

I didn’t buy perfume much before and 2 of these were gifts if I remember correctly. But the original 5 are ‘Lush – Princess Peach’, which is a blend of pineapple and peach. ‘Alien by Mugler’ which is a blend of jasmine and amber, Il be honest sometimes I love this perfume and other times I think ew. I dunno why. Next is ‘Marc Jacobs-Honey’  which is a gorgeous summer scent with its floral and vanilla blends, I bought this because my name means honey bee. Lastly, we have ‘Tom Ford – Orchid Soleil‘ which is a floral scent, Now I really don’t like perfume, it’s awful in my opinion. Maybe it’s just my skin chemistry but damn.

A good perfume collection is like a time capsule. Each scent carries memories, moods, and a little bit of personality.

I’m all for a large collection of perfumes; I buy new ones almost every month because I love a good smelling perfume. You have a great collection; each scent carries its own unique fragrance.

I love how you are so honest about your experiences. Your review of Mugler’s Alien and Tom Ford’s Orchid Soleil is refreshing because let’s be real, not every hyped perfume works for everyone. It’s great to see someone own their personal taste instead of following trends.

I haven’t worn perfume for years, but I work with special needs students so I can’t have the fragrance on around them. I will wear it on the weekends sometimes or when I’m going out in the evenings.

Its great to see so many perfumes all gathered together. I wish I had kept my selections over the years just to compare them. I tend to finish them and then dispose. I cant say I have a favourite but just always love my current one!
