Nice but not too strong

Hello everyone! I’m new to perfumes and I don’t usually wear them because I have a sensitive nose but I’ve been getting into them lately. Any recommendations on a perfume that smells nice but isn’t too strong?

Re: Nice but not too strong

@Anonymous  Others have made great suggestions! If you still find regular perfumes too strong, you might do better with perfume oils or solids which do not project as far. LUSH makes very affordable solids with safe synthetics if ingredients are a concern. Otherwise, many houses have oil/solid versions. Some like Tocca have hair mists as well.

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely try these if the others are too strong!

@Anonymous I Like Juliet has a Gun in Anyways but I also love atelier's cedre atlas and Moab, Greylock, and Sandara from Phlur. I tend to prefer woodsy/earthy scents but i think this presents a little range. Juliet has a gun offers a great discovery package for $25 on sephora's site, Atelier's fragrances often pop up in the free samples with order and you can get samples made up in store. Phlur I love and I was so excited when they launched with sephora, but you'd probably be better off building a sample set directly through their site since there's better descriptions and you can make it to your preferences

@Anonymous   I second Juliette has a Gun Not a Perfume (there are several fragrances in that line but that, to me, is the softest one.)  Here's a link to a sampler of most of that brand's fragrances if you'd like to experiment:

If you would like something a little more complex, Philosophy's Pure Grace is an oldie but goody.  It smells like clean, soap, a little musk, a tiny bit of floral, and berries.  Have fun with your search!

Hi @GimmeSomeShadow check out Juliette Has a Gun Not A Perfume 3.3 oz/ 100 mL

It was designed for people who are sensitive to fragrances.
