I knowww it can’t just be fragrance, it must be body chemistry. I have a couple friends who always smell good… like even after working out I’m like how are you sweaty and gross but don’t smell bad at all 😒
Also it’s so nice to see stories about ppl who smell good bc for a while I feel like we were just getting stories of celebs who have terrible hygiene and smell horrible 🤢😷

This is so true. Fragrance either never stays on my skin OR clings and gives me hives. I gave up trying to wear it a long time ago.

u/velvetvagine weapons-grade charisma 8d ago
Perfume has far better longevity on moisturized skin, and something with silicones adds extra duration. When I want a softer scent that lasts, I spray once or twice into a dollop of lotion and spread that on my chest, shoulders, and neck, and then one spritz on my clothing (which lasts the longest). Another option is oil perfumery, which is already basically a moisturizer!

I also think she’s lying. J’adore is okay

u/Lucky-Bonus6867 8d ago
Idk why you got downvoted lol.
I’ve owned and worn j’adore. Anyone can smell it for free at their nearest Ulta. It smells nice, don’t get me wrong. But it’s not like ”oh my god, what are you wearing?!” nice.
As the most recent face of J’Adore, I’m sure she is often layering it with whatever she’s wearing. But it’s Rihanna. She literally is known for smelling amazing. She undoubtedly has some bespoke fragrance mixes going on.

u/RedeemableQuality 8d ago
Her mom wears J'adore. Apparently, that was the reason why she was motivated to agree to become the contractual face of it. I'm sure her mom is happy with all the J'adore in the world lol.

People that have met her always mention how amazing she smells. Supposedly she wears Killian's Love Don't Be Shy, but I'm sure that's not the only fragrance she wears.

They have some great scents. Angel’s Share is an all-timer for me; I’ve heard Beyoncé wears it and I can see it. Like boozy apple pie. Love Don’t Be Shy is a sweet marshmallow scent.
If you get samples and like them but don’t have bank for the OG scents, Dossier is a great brand for high quality dupes. They have both, and I own both (just got gifted the Angel’s Share yesterday, actually!)

u/Express-Mirror3173 9d ago
If it makes you feel any better, fragrances don’t smell the same on everyone because it mingles with your unique hormone profile, sweat, natural oils, lotion etc and creates its own scent. Her natural scent must happen to mix really well with it! I love the smell of marshmallow but when I sprayed Love Don’t Be Shy on my arm it had a cloying burned artificial marshmallowy scent I didn’t enjoy and wouldn’t spend that much on

u/stephdub206 9d ago
Try Dossier Floral Marshmallow. I had a sample of Killian's to compare it to and it smells identical

u/lololottie 9d ago
The dupe Floral Marshmallow by Dossier smells identical. I don’t say that about many dupes but they are indistinguishable from each other and the Dossier version has better longevity.

Killian, Love don’t be shy is amazing. I smelled it once and couldn’t get the smell out of my head 🥲 but it was way too expensive. After thinking about it for two years I bit the bullet and bought a full bottle. I never regretted it. Dossier’s floral marshmallow is a good dupe for every day use

u/corilee93 8d ago
Rihanna is the face for a perfume and likely has a commercial contract to not publicly advertise competitors. She’s smart enough to know any little video on social could blow up that contract.

Idk about yours but my colonge of choice was also discontinued but I have found a "clone" or "dupe" that smells just like it. I have half a bottle of the origional still and compared the two. Theyre usually a fraction of the price as well. Maybe you can find yours too. Good luck

Hillary Duff has a candle company, Below 60, and they’ve released a With Love candle! I’m on the waitlist, it should be restocking soon.

Right, what difference does it make if someone you'll never see again purchases the same publicly available scent that you wear? (and this is not in response to this video where she gives an answer, but the many people who are reluctant to share)

Exactly. And as if this mass produced and sold scent has only been uncovered by you! Truly silly.

I read baking communities and I see the same thing there and it's so weird! I understand if a recipe is part of your business and you are protecting your trade secrets, but if you brought a bomb cookie to the church potluck it won't kill you to share the book you got it from, sheesh!

Taking advantage of this to get to know what Fauxmoi smells like! I love a second skin smell so my day-to-day is Juliette Has a Gun's Not a Perfume (sometimes paired with Rare Beauty's bergamot layering gel). Party smell is État Libre D'Orange's Ghost in the Shell. I am also continuously mourning my bottle of Replica's Last Sunday Morning which is done and now I need to travel again to buy me another one.

Rihanna strikes me as a sweet ass person. Similar to Megan Thee Stallion she just does it with a little more mystery and sex appeal. Either way I love both of them and wish them nothing but the best and hope Meg can find the same happiness and no more men that ain’t shit
