      I got a floral smelling perfume that was labelled “for men”. Really liked it. But got told a bunch of times “someone’s wearing a lovely women’s perfume”. Maybe I just want to smell like flowers too goddamnit.

        I just straight up started wearing women’s perfume. I really like sweet and powdery smells, as well as vanilla notes. You don’t really get stuff like that ‘for men’, but their stupid labels can’t stop me.

        I just really have to clarify whether someone actually said these specific words to you

      Right? I’m a fairly big hairy bikery punkerish type. I am told I look intimidating.

      But if you get up close what you’re going to smell is blueberries and vanilla!

      I don’t know what “Ocean Charge” is supposed to smell like but it was cheap.

      I just use cheap products and if they don’t pass my “do they work” test I dont ever buy that one again. My body wash test is extremely simple. If I wash my armpits and I can still feel antiperspirant still there after, the body wash fails and I’ll never buy it again.

      If it washes it all out… It passes.

      Edit: That said some products by the same company fail while others don’t. I found a pomegranate one time that worked extremely well and I swore I was going to stick with that moving forward… It apparently was limited time couldn’t find it again and the next product I bought from the same brand failed my test… So I was sad.
