What kind of perfume do you all like?

To be clear this isn't a discussion about why strippers should wear or not wear perfume.

I don't care if these are male/female/unisex scents whatever.

Are you more into perfume, eau de toilette, mists/sprays? Oils or whatever?

What brands or types of scents do you like? Sweet? Fruity? Amber? Spicy? Certain notes?

Sorry no offense u people discuss the most boring recycled shit half the time, needed a break.

My favorite scent believe it or not. I love sun tan lotion spray. Whatever that copper tone scent is it reminds of the beach and it’s a light scent is, not overbearing at all. I’ve been wearing that instead of cologne which I think is too much sometimes. Although I liked Creeds Green Irish Tweed for awhile. I might do another Creed one day.

Some girls go OD with some of those cinnamony/super sweet stuff it’s too much.

Idk much about creed lol other than it is premium. At one point though I sort of looked down on cheap perfume and body mist and now I realize some of it is amazing lmao!

One thing I've been seeing is it seems at every club at least one girl has Ariana Grande Cloud. It is supposed to smell good but I literally cant smell the stuff even if I spray and put my nose right there. I think something is wrong with my nose. I also couldn't smell some of those other ariana grande perfumes that are supposed to smell good lmao

And I try to avoid some of the common ones that everyone else has, like Dior Savuage, 1 million Paco Rabene etc. (but then again I’m rocking fucking sun tan lotion so IDFK) I also might try a Tom Ford too one day. They are expensive but these things last a while if you rotate them.

There is one perfume I’ve encountered on many dancers over the years. I don’t know what it’s called. In my head I call it β€œInsecticide”. In addition to not being pleasant, I start to get a headache after a minute or two. Automatic dealbreaker; I shut down any conversation quickly.

I agree with Heaving: I prefer neutral. Many dancers apologize for being sweaty after coming off stage, but I’ve never minded the scent of natural perspiration.

For the most part, for me, less is more with regard to perfume or other scent. And none is the most of all. With uncommon exceptions, a healthy woman's natural scent is going to be the most pleasant to me. Even exertion mostly just enhances that.

But that's not the question.

One of the girls I met recently was something she called "Ambre". I know where she told me she got it in Louisville, a place called Revelry down on Market Street, but it's apparently a small company in Indianapolis that actually makes it.

It was one of the better scents I've smelled. It's one of the few that didn't smell bad to me.

I prefer clean scents, some of the sweeter perfumes irritate my sinuses, for women it's best if they are lightly scented , citrus and spice seems to be the lightest to my palette, for myself I prefer Agua di Giorgio, sparingly and I've received many compliments over the years.

It's hard to recommend scents coz the way they smell on people vary with body cgemistry...

Victorias secret bombshell intense is a nice smell. Any of the victorias secret body sprays are good for the club. I like the more tropical ones like the summer Sands, surf or something like that . .


As far as more expensive perfumes go then Gucci Rush. I love that smell.

As for colognes. I really like Ferragamo sport or night. Not many wear it and it smells good on me.

I'm not a big scent guy for myself, so I have no real insight into the matter. I've got a few that I use sparingly and infrequently but otherwise I smell of soap.

I’m nasally challenged - as I have a large prominent nose but I have a very poor sense of smell.

As long as a dancer uses a modest amount of scent, that’s all that matters to me.

I can’t tell if she’s wearing an expensive scent or a cheap body spray.

All I care is that somebody smells good. I could care less if it was cheap or not. I will say though I don't have an experienced nose- I have noticed that there tend to be more luxury brand perfumes that last a long time, have a more complex smell, and tend to be less straight up sweet or straight up fruit than the cheap stuff. A lot of the cheap stuff smells good too though. And some cheap perfumes are real powerhouses- though I have found it is more common for the cheap stuff to have poor longevity- sorta like a body mist- with perhaps a slightly more complex smell. That to be is really the only time I think it was a total waste of money. I am not that picky though.

On dudes at the club- I have noticed that some of the Giorgio Armani stuff smells good.

I guess I will agree that the more important thing is impeccable hygiene, but I think that adding good smelling stuff on top of great hygiene is like the cherry on top. To each their own.

On my last visit to my favorite club, a dancer walked by trailing a combined scent of vanilla and chocolate. I mentioned that she smelled delicious. She yelled back at the bartender, "See, I told ya!"

LOL I know ski was trolling with the vag comment. Fuck no in my case. But I have seen a lot of girls spray their vag with something in dressing rooms. I hope these are feminine sprays and not fragrance mists/perfumes, but somehow I think that area is sensitive and the best approach is to just have good hygiene. I feel like spraying fragrance there would make w/e bacterial infections or irritating worse, but Idk!

And anyways to you all commenting about women should be clean and not cover up with perfume or w/e... Here is the thing- if their pussy stinks then spraying something won't help- I really doubt it would. Also if someone stinks of sweat/body odor then perfume won't hide that lol. You will just smell the perfume plus the bad smells... So anyway I go back to my point of being clean and having fragrance is nice. I also understand the point of just being very clean w/ no fragrance, but that is boring.

I feel the need to update on this.

I do not like anything by Ariana Grande except for REM, but that would probably definitely not be 1 for the club lmfao! I know everybody loves Cloud, but I just don't get it with that one nor any similar ones to it. Supposedly Cloud smells like Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 which is ultra premium, but if that is the case I don't want anything to do with it anyway cuz yuck.

I never got to sniff the Givenchy Ange ou Demon as it isn't out anywhere I've been as a tester. I loved their Givenchy Irrestible EDP though and bought that. I liked everything I smelled by Givenchy at the store, but obvs not gonna go that crazy rn.

I like Valentino Donna Born in Roma, but not enough to buy a full size bottle. I bought some cheapo cute travel size kit with a 0.5 oz and a 0.2 oz piece of this one for a bargain $38 at ulta. That is very cheap for premium brands samplers in bottles that look similar to the full size bottle, just smaller. I gotta say this one goes on strong, but it fades into an ultra weak scent so quickly. I did smell it on paper b4 buying obvs, but just didn't realize how fast this one fades into barely there. Also I saw a lot of people online are leaving reviews like it is floral or woody. I get nothing but straight up fruit from this one, at least on me.

I am not crazy about Carolina Herrera Good Girl, but I love the bottle so I got the most adorable mini for only $15 lmfao. The heel is so cute, love it.

YSL is consistently good imo. I haven't smelled anything of theirs that I hate.

Jimmy Choo is probably my favorite. I keep buying their brand of perfume smh.

I also really like Lancome perfumes.

I like Victoria's Secret perfume in their Very Sexy line, and Bare is good too. Everything VS Bombshell literally smells like bug spray to me. yuck no thanks lmao.




As far as the ***ultra cheap*** that I love. I would say I really love a lot of Victoria's Secret body mists and Bath and Body Works body mists. The celebrities imo with good cheapass perfume are Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Mariah Carey. Other really nice ultra cheap stuff is Liz Clairborne and Target perfume lmao.

I need to resniff Ariana Grande's stuff. Everyone else seems to love all or most of her perfume except me. Maybe my nose is fucked up. Britney Spears perfume is decent quality like for longevity for cheap stuff. I guess I do not personally love her stuff, but I will give her credit that it is above avg. There is another one that is trending these days, that Billie Eilish in the funny boob looking bottle. Supposedly it smells really good, but I just didn't experience that with her stuff.

There was one cheapie I wanted to buy for shits and giggles and cuz the name, but like looking at the notes, it didn't seem like anything I would enjoy. It's called Maroussia Slava Zaitsev. I am not a fan though of aldehydic or civet notes in perfume.

I like a lot of traditionally feminine smells of course, but then I also like a lot of perfumes where there's reviews bitching about a masculine or unisex smell LOL. I am all over the place while still weirdly somewhat picky.

And idk if I already mentioned this, but fragrances can smell wildly different on a test strip then on skin. They can also smell totally different on one person and the next. I remember I tried on a man's fragrance LOL and it smelled amazingly crisp and nice and extra fresh on me. Then I smelled it on a dude and it smelled all musky like a totally different fragrance, but same bottle. πŸ˜‚

In certain cases - logic doesn’t work. It’s like me - as I have a huge nose - and yet my sense of smell is miserable. I think it’s the same with what you’ve mentioned about fragrances - as they can change as they react to the oils in a person’s skin.

I’ve tried fragrances in the past, and they can vary quite a bit depending on the dryness of one’s skin - or other factors. I think the efficacy can be lessened in winter when they are more rapidly absorbed.

My all time fave, every day wear, would be Chanel Coco Mademoiselle. Always gotta have a bottle of that.

I don't really feel like stuff marketed for one gender should necessarily only be worn by that one gender. It is whatever someone wants to do. I also think it is cultural. I remember dancing for an Ethiopian and he definitely smelled like the coconut fragrances we tend to market for women. I didn't mind though. I am pretty sure it was a fragrance product and not him rubbing coconut oil or something on his skin or hair.

I wanted to add that yall should be careful because everything gets reformulated these days, including $100 and up perfumes so read the shit out of reviews. Sometimes it is better to buy an older/possibly used of the same fragrance than a brand new one because I've been seeing a trend of the newer editions/reformulations being weaker or even having somewhat different fragrance notes to some people. I personally expect beast level performance out of the higher priced stuff.

My sense of smell is about as refined as my taste in wine, which means somewhere between poor and non-existent. I've received many bottles of expensive cologne over the years and never worn them, except maybe to show some false appreciation toward the girl that gave it to me.

I find the "good" stuff (meaning expensive) to be overpowering, even when used sparingly. And since I'm the one closest to the origin of the scent, it annoys me until it finally dissipates enough to be less noticeable.

My favorite scent to wear is almost any kind of cheap aftershave. Brut, Aqua Velva, Skin Bracer... Not too powerful when you first put it on, and still slightly noticeable later. The smell reminds me of when I was a kid and first started shaving, or the free stuff they have in the locker room at a golf club.

As far as women's perfume, I couldn't distinguish between a few thousand dollars a bottle, or bought from the discount rack at CVS. I do take notice, however, when a woman enters a room and immediately the entire place stinks like the perfume department at Bloomingdale's. I don't know how women go out in public like that, and I wonder if they realize how ridiculous it is.

If scent has any impact at all on an alluring interaction, whether a lap dance or a civie encounter, I think the sexiest thing is when a woman simply smells clean, like she just got out of the shower. A slight whiff of shampoo perhaps. More than that is overkill to me.

Scent is one of the most important senses. A smell can remind you of things people bring back vivid memories. I'm like that with colognes and perfumes. The memories hit me hard when I smell some.

Scents can bring up certain moods for me. It is almost like aromatherapy. FYI essential oils are not necessarily healthier than synthetics. Like you still can't put undiluted essential oils on your skin, and if you put them in soap or lotion or something it's still gotta be diluted below or up to a certain ratio. Also apparently some essential oils can potentially cause abortions 🀣 (idk how true that is tho)

I never messed with essential oils. But like some colognes like Ferragamo ones take me back to nights with my ex. Hugo sport reminds me of my first crush. Gucci rush which is discontinued reminds me of my mom. Things like that. Axe reminds me of raves I've been to

I guess for me- no, they do not bring up memories whether good or bad. But they just set me in certain moods idk how to explain. And I'm like *all* over the place with my fragrances.

Icee you never got the chance to steal creed, maison kurkdjian, parfums de marly, initio, tom ford, etc? Looks like you’ve never even been offered to sample those, they can tell you’re a looter by looking hence the best youve smelled is ferragamo and hugo lulz

They affect moods too. Some smells make me happy. And it's weird but a few trigger anxiety

So I don't think that price is always related to quality with scents. There are quite a few mid and high priced fragrances that don't perform for shit. I've heard about Tom Ford perfume performance. I'd never waste that much money on something that doesn't even last all day. There are also a lot of very cheap scents that do perform well and smell good. I guess it just depends on preferences.

Kinda random, but I think that "fresh" scents marketed for men are usually way the fuck better smelling than the "fresh" scents they usually market for women. That kinda upsets me. It is sorta like men's deodorant is usually better. Not ok! πŸ˜‚

I've noticed that a lot of reviews bitch about something is masculine if it isn't a sugar bomb/real edible smelling. I've seen that a couple times for lavender heavy scents, which I find funny as I don't find lavender to be strictly a masculine scent. I also see this sort of commentary for a lot of woody/smoky scents which imo tend to pull sweet on me.

I try and be careful with the purely gourmand (edible) type scents. Sometimes they trigger me to eat when I shouldn't lmao.

Some smells do just make me happy every single time.

Some are comforting before going to sleep.

Some wake me the fuck up and energize me.

Some scents I have to be in a particularly dominant/loud/idgaf mood that day to wear.

Smelling stolen or looted fragrances means nothing... if everything you smell is stolen, then your sense of smell is also stolen!

oops Idk why that cut out the rest of my message.

Anyway that is my reaction to some cheap imitation dupes in fact being better than the pricier real version I ended up buying.

Omg lol. I couldn't care less what paying customer would smell like. But it is a bonus if they are either fresh/clean or have a nice scent on them.

Well, not liking BO/stinky pussy I can understand. Sounds like these ladies need to get in the habit of showering or at least use baby wipes or something if they don't stink too bad.

I usually reek of pot when I just get to the club. When strippers mention it I say it's my favorite cologne - 'Eau de Mary Jane'.

If there is a perfume that one is too greedy to divest themself of then one may spray multiple perfumes in 1 spot to create a new scent 😁
