    Welcome to The Scented!
    Today's video is all about fragrances that are NOT safe for the workplace. These fragrances are either too sexy, too strong or too polarizing and would be risky to wear in a typical workplace environment where fragrances are generally allowed. I will also provide a recommended alternative for most of the fragrances mentioned.
    All fragrances mentioned are linked below:

    I'm a nurse, so I also can't wear strong scents to work. I usually wear 1 squirt of something super-fresh, like Ferrari Bright Neroli, or EL White Linen. Yes, I know they are dated, cheap & not 'glam', but they are soft & oddly, get me a lot of compliments. I think there are enough nasty smells in a hospital, that a soft nice smell can be comforting to patients, but also realize that some people are very sensitive to scents. Also, I love the cooing in the background. I hope you're having the best time ever, enjoying yur new baby!

    • @strawberryfields81

    Hot take but I think any scent can work as an office scent if you don’t over spray and go light handed. I’d wear Olympea to my office job, but I’d just spray it maybe once on my neck and leave it. I also think Lancôme Idole Aura would be a good office replacement for Olympea. It’s not as sweet or vanillic.

    Lou Lou, ahhh my Lou Lou. (sighing in love). That was my first love since I was 10-11 years old. Such a special, unique scent. There's nothing like it. It was ahead of its time.... and YES, I have dared wearing it to the office. Luckily, it has been complemented.

    Back in the 90s mother used to work in a leather retail store and her co-worker used to wear a fragrance called Design by Paul Sebastian. This co-worker must've doused herself every morning with this fragrance because before you even walked into the store you could smell her perfume and it got worse once you were in the store. It was headache inducing, and this is coming from someone who has always loved and collected fragrances. You couldn't even smell the leather when she was working, and that's saying a lot.

    My work scents; Boss days when I'm not seeing patients just going to meetings or talks, Cristalle de Chanel. Patient days when I'm doing the rounds or in clinic all day:Spanish eau de colognes (Alvarez Gomez or Nenuco), Eden by Cacharel or Bulgari Omnia Cristalline. Depressing days: I used to spray Clinique's Calyx (they've discontinued it!) because it was an instant mood lifter, I need an alternative!. Study days or days when I'm going to be seeing all the difficult cases, Fig and cassis by Jo Malone (sadly discontinued). Private Practice day, Chanel No5 L'eau...Nightshift: Cristalle. Shower after the nightshift: Shalimar. Going to bed after a nighshift, all clean and smelling of vanilla was heavenly.

    To be honest I love only strong or at least moderate sillage fragrances and thus I own only them. So yes Alien, Kenzo Jungle L'elefant, Addict, Hypnotic Poison, Black Orchid, Terracotta Le Parfum etc. But I have got very dry skin and on me, it smells only in my personal zone (circa 20-30 centimeters). Usually, I receive compliments on Addict and Jungle L'elefant at work (as PT on Outpatient).

    While Alien is a fragrance with a presence, It is the only jasmine that to me has zero gag factor (some jasmines are so pungent). Anyway, I only ever wear it as a light fragranced gel at work, and I checked prior with my immediate colleagues if they were OK with it - and they were. 😁 Btw, awesome makeup, Yana!

    Funny story: so at work the daughter of our Big Boss wears Angel. Like if she passes in the hallway and I pass there 5 minutes after you can still smell it and you know that she's been there. So on one side it's great because you can smell her coming before she's in the room, so we can stop talking shit. But on the other side she kind of ruined Angel for me, because now I associate it with her. I'm thinking about starting to wear Alien to work just to get my revenge :D

    I was in a fragrance store to buy me a fragrance. Ended up in the women’s section and was testing every fragrance. Nothing was sexy enough for me. I was looking for something my girl could rock. Smelled Gucci rush. I made a whistle and the whole store was looking at me. This fragrance was so dripping sexy that I was getting wild thoughts immediately 🫢💦 It was so hot that I could not resist but buy it. Ladies listen, buy this fragrance for seduction, it’s not even fair for your competition. Should be named „Gucci 🔞“
