Scent has a remarkable ability to evoke memories, trigger emotions, and even transport us back to a particular moment in time. The fragrance worn by someone significant—like an ex—can linger in your mind long after the relationship has ended. Whether it was the perfume they wore every day, or a specific scent they wore on a memorable occasion, these fragrances often become intertwined with the person’s essence. In this article, we’ll explore a selection of perfumes that carry with them memories, bittersweet feelings, and trauma.
1. ULTRA MALE BY JEAN PAUL GAULTIER
We bet it wasn’t until too late that you found out he was a player.
2. STRONGER WITH YOU BY GIORGIO ARMANI
Unlike Ultra Male, Stronger With You is far from subtle. This perfume screams “I’m gonna give you the biggest trauma of your life.”
3. ARMANI CODE BY GIORGIO ARMANI
You were probably dating a millennial whose toxicity technique was a bit outdated..
4. VERSACE EROS
Were your standards really that low?
5. BLEU DE CHANEL
Umm, we can’t deny that anyone who wears this has refined, impeccable taste in fragrances—and they’re probably always well dressed. However, that never stopped them from messing up.
6. DIOR SAUVAGE: THE KING OF TOXICITY
Really? Did you deliberately let that guy fool you? Here’s a free tip: the next time you meet a guy wearing any of the Sauvage flankers, don’t even bother with a second date.
7. BOSS BOTTLED PARFUM
It sounds like you endured a lot of ego trips and constant disappointments for quite a while. Sorry about that.
On your upcoming first date, make sure to ask them about their fragrance collection.
