What's some of your pet peeves about the fragrance world?

I thought it would be interesting to see what some of the things are that bother you all in the realm of fragrances. It can be fragrances themselves, business practices by companies, reviewers and influencers, anything - take your pick.

My big one is when a company decides to put their fragrance in a bottle where you can't see how much juice is left. It's in either really dark glass or a bottle made out of a solid material. If you're going to do that at least leave a little bit clear on the side so we can see. I don't want to rely on my sense of hearing when I have to shake the bottle and judge how much is left.

A close second is when a company makes a flanker of a fragrance line and it smells nothing like what came before. It makes no sense. Just give it a different name, please!

What are some of the things that get under your skin?
