From Full to Empty: Perfumes I’ve Used Up

Recently, I've been striving to truly use up my perfumes, including both full bottles and travel sizes. With a collection of over 80 full bottles, I prefer not to expand it further. I'd rather appreciate what I own than allow wonderful scents to remain unused in a cupboard. I'm making good progress! Here are a few recent ones I've finished that I'd like to share.
Tonka 25 — Le Labo (travel size)
Soft, comfortable, and slightly sweet. A simple, everyday fragrance. Initially, it didn't appeal to me, but it gradually won me over.
1969 — Histoires de Parfums (travel size)
Spicy, warm, and a bit playful. A lovely blend of patchouli and chocolate. I now own a full bottle, so I'm ready to part with this travel size.
Orphéon — Diptyque (travel size)
Clean, soapy, and slightly powdery, suitable for almost any occasion. It's recently become one of my most-used and favorite fragrances. I've already bought another travel size and am seriously thinking about getting a full bottle.
Baraonda — Nasomatto
Boozy and cozy. I really enjoyed it and am still considering whether to purchase a full bottle. Maybe after some time.
Mon Guerlain — Guerlain
Lavender and vanilla comfort — a classic, feminine, and beautifully balanced fragrance. I'm seriously thinking about exploring more of Guerlain’s perfumes; they truly are timeless.
Cédrat Enivrant — Atelier Cologne
Fresh, bright citrus. Ideal for warm days and very easy to overspray. I still have an old bottle, so I'm undecided about whether to let it go or keep it as a little treasure for the future.
