PHLUR Strawberry Letter Eau de Parfum - Travel Size Perfume Spray - Strawberry Gourmand Fine Fragrance (9.5mL)

I absolutely love fragrances.. I love smelling them, collecting them and that ever elusive search to find my "signature scent". I've gotten close before but nothing ever seemed to stick with me until 'Father Figure'. It hits all the right notes and lasts quite a while. I've gotten so many compliments on this scent and even had people go out and buy it for themselves. The price point is a little steep but honestly it's worth it as it lasts me a while and I just love the scent so much that much I'm willing to pay a little extra. The best part of this fragrance other than the scent, is being asked what I'm wearing..

Father Figure is one of those perfumes that totally catches you off guard—in the best way. It’s cozy, nostalgic, and has this grounded, woodsy warmth that somehow still feels soft and feminine. Think cashmere sweater on a rainy day or hugging someone you deeply trust.It starts off a little fresh and clean, but the dry-down is where the magic happens—smooth sandalwood, a hint of spice, and a skin-like musk that lingers all day without being overpowering.I’ve never worn a scent quite like this before. It feels confident, intimate, and a little mysterious. If you love warm, gender-neutral scents that still feel elevated and personal, this is a must-try.

God I love this smell. I want to bathe in it. I want to ingest it. I want to drown in it. For me, the scent starts off with a floral/rose scent and then develops into a more complex floral warm musk. Delicious. Yum.

Notes of vanilla, sandalwood, pink pepper and jasmine. The end result smells more sandalwood and after dry down it does have a nice vanilla scent with sandalwood. It wasn't really what I expected. It's on the borderline of too musky imo. Item is ineligible for return.

… and I’ve learned my lesson! I kept seeing the ads on Facebook and Instagram about Phlur fragrances and Body Mists. I know better! I created SEO content for major brands for a decade and am one of the jerks who used all those fancy key words and inserted them into ads just like the ones Phlur uses to suck gullible consumers like myself, into buying something. Even worse, I’m a fragrance snob who usually sticks to what I know works with my body chemistry. But nope, I ignored my own gut telling me this was NOT going to be a fun and fruity scent. Initially I ordered the Mango and another fruit scent via Phlur’s site after caving in to the ads. Then I read through more of the comments and kicked myself. A LOT of people said to order off Amazon if ordering Phlur scents because when ordered straight off the brand site, orders were never received or were coming from Scandinavia and Europe in general. I ordered this scent, Strawberry Letter, via Amazon as so many suggested doing. Received it in two days (still haven’t received order directly from Phlur).Upon smelling the perfume in the bottle itself, it was a bit acrid smelling (reminded me of the sharp, unpleasant smell that Glossier’s “You” has) and then a super sharp cheap strawberry wine scent hit me. Yuck.TLDR … I guess my body chemistry laughed and said, “So you decided to FA & you FO …” It smells like Baccarat Rouge 540 which I loathe! It smells like cheap men’s cologne and curry on me. This Phlur Strawberry Letter stuff smells like the Baccarat fragrance but with sour-milk-swamp-booty notes that dry down to stale- curry-and-old-man-in-the-Deep-South.Save yourself some disappointment and a potential headache (like the one I’ve got) and go to Sephora - the only retail store that carries Phlur- and smell/sample this stuff BEFORE you buy it.I am going to return this and pray that the “Heavy Cream” scent (also Phlur) that I blind-bought on Amazon and gets here Friday, smells better, and that I receive the other stuff ordered from Phlur directly and that it doesn’t make me shed massive tears of fragrance-regret.

Such a yummy summer time scent. Long lasting and I get so many compliments! Smells like freshly peeled cuties

My son bought this to spray on the dog after her bath. She smells like a musky milky very sweet strawberry cream pie--in other words, like a teenage girl. To be fair, this is a little like Angel, foody & sweaty, so perhaps more interesting than teenage body sprays--but two sprays is a headache for me. This would work better on a real teenage girl than on my poodle. One spray from a distance is plenty and lasts for at least 24 hours (my daughter and I both tried it). I wish my expensive perfume lasted this long!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I chose Father Figure because I fell in love with the smell of it. The quality of the perfume is amazing, the scent lasts on my skin and clothes all day. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments since I started wearing it. 10/10 would always recommend
