Only Mine

I would consider myself to be someone who’s drawn to more unisex scents but the description and reviews of this one caught my eye. This is absolutely a very feminine scent, sweet, light, and fruity. Upon first spray I was disappointed by how sweet smelling it was but over a couple weeks I grew used to it. It lasts all day and leaves a very vanilla heavy scent at the end. Most of its more complicated/layered notes leave within the first 1-3 hours of wear but the base notes make up for that loss, for that reason I think it’s a great scent for layering with other perfumes and colognes. The packaging is a 10/10 for me and I love the spray (its a pretty wide mist) I’ve never owned the original scent so I can’t tell how faithful it is but I love this fragrance.

I found Oakcha on Instagram a couple months ago. I kept seeing ads about Praise the perfume and Viral vanilla. I really wanted to smell nice without spending a load of money, so I kept it in the back of my mind.

One day after about 2 months of seeing the ads, I thought it was time to spend some time researching. I explored the website and they obviously sell dupes of brand perfumes, so that was intriguing. Another thing that made me decide to buy was their reviews. Holy sh*t, hundreds of mostly positive reviews on EVERY bottle they had, I was sold.

I ended up going to my local drug store and Sephora trying to find some perfumes that resonated with me. I took a bunch of samples home and went to see if they had it on their website. I made sure my selection was perfect. I got the free mystery fragrance, got a bit of a discount, then CAD $300 later, I bought 6 fragrances.

I want to start off by saying SHIPPING TIME SUCKED. I waited 3 weeks which was extremely annoying.

I advise you to not spray all of the perfumes you get in your bedroom. (Unless it’s like 1 or 2). The smell lingered for 4 days and triggered my asthma T-T Spray them in a garage or in a ventilated area. If you do spray the perfume and it stinks up the space, I sprayed some vinegar and water mixture on my carpet and left it for a couple hours. It worked well!

DON'T judge too quickly! It took about a week to gradually use every perfume and analyze it. When I sprayed them all at once it jumbled my nose and I…

Smells nice and I am happy with my order BUT... it's does not smell exactly like the hypnotic poison. People saying it smells exact clearly do not own the original, because I do and I did a side by side comparison and the oakcha version has a rosey floral note that the original hypnotic poison does not. A little disappointing and I wish that they didn't add the rose note to it... but it still smells very nice and has that vanilla almond smell to it that makes it sort of resemble the hypnotic poison perfume.
