Today's #SOTD is part of a rabbit hole I've fallen into involving lilac scents. There are just two notes: lilac & petrichor. It's heavy on the fresh, aquatic florals. It's stemmy & green. But something about it leans a bit dill pickle-y on me, which I am not enjoying. #fragrancesky #perfumesky - ThreadSky

The dill pickles are real!!! And frustrating. IA Falling into the Sea had me falling into a pickle jar

Nooo! No thing worse! And I love dill pickles, I just don't want to smell like one lol. I'm hoping this doesn't become a thing with lilac perfumes for me!

I’ve been in a lilac scent rabbit hole for a year now! They’re so good! Which ones are your faves?

goodchat.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'm still fresh to it, so I can't say just yet. I've got like 5 more samples to try! What started it was Dream Sequence by Marissa Zappas which was such an unexpected love! What have you discovered and loved??

rwchal.bsky.social•4 days ago

Dream sequence is so good!!
I’m a fan of universal flowering’s lilac, so our tastes might differ!
My most beloved is tears by regime des fleurs. Pacifica’s French lilac is a shockingly good cheapie! Lilac city by DS & Durga was a surprise fave. Also Lilas by Osmofolia!

Love it!! I've got samples of Tears, Lilac Brulee, Love at First Sight, Lilac Love, and Totally White to go through. I also blind bought a partial bottle of Nosferatu.... eek. I'm worried it might be too reminiscent of Lilac No. 4 but I guess we'll see lol. I'd like to try Lilac City too!

Let me know how you like tears! I have a sample of love at first sight coming soon too, which I’m excited about. I haven’t tried nosferatu but based on the notes it sounds like a colder lilac, so hopefully it’s different enough that you like it!

I have high hopes for LAFS... I hope it delivers! Let me know your thoughts when you try it. It's fun to find someone else down a lilac rabbit hole haha.

rwchal.bsky.social•4 days ago

I made a list of all the ones I want to try in the future!

Also hello to another Minnesota fraghead!!! Always exciting to find another one of us in the near wild haha.

rwchal.bsky.social•4 days ago

Omg! That’s exciting!! I feel like we’re all so hidden here.

Have you ever tried Highland Lilac? It's the truest lilac soliflore. Just like sticking your nose in the blossoms

goodchat.bsky.social•2 days ago

I haven't, but I have heard about it and definitely need to give it a try!!
