I used to but the 50 or 100ml in a new fragrance…I’ve learned to just get the travel spray…since I’ve been doing this, I’ve only gone back to get the full size of a fragrance twice in 2023. Love your channel ❤️😊~Kim
I’m 36 and have only needed to recop a full bottle over again for like 4 different fragrances ever lol . I used to fall in love with how beautiful the bottles were , but now I’m often looking for smallest size available. I just got molton brown milk Musk and really wish it wasn’t a 3.4 oz. It looks so bulky and heavy on my mirror tray and I’m not used to how heavy it is lol😅
The perfume companies have definitely taken notice of the popularity of perfume on tik tok and most of the people on there are younger, gen Z and younger, that can’t afford these super expensive perfumes. That’s why we are seeing so many body sprays and young leaning fruity perfumes.
From the Garden was a cool experimental scent. It literally smelled like dirt and tomato on my skin, so not something I would get a bottle of, but I still really appreciate the artistry and creativity of these houses!
I want it so bad for spring and summer 😂 but I’m afraid it won’t be tomato enough for me. I don’t have a Sephora close by so I might just buy the travel.
I wanted a tomato leaf fragrance that is juuuust enough of a perfume to smell good. And to me, From the garden is perfect! I don't get a dirt note, just luscious tomato plant with a green perfume quality.
i wanted more tomato, like Demeter's tomato. it opens well, but dries down on me like a powdery floral. worth a try! very unique amongst sephora perfumes@@thejulietocean
Hey Lauren! Do you think you could do a "wedding fragrances" video or series? I'm getting married next year and am so excited to find the perfect scent. I'm having a smaller wedding and want something warm, a little sweet, and joyful. I think of wedding fragrances as being generally people pleasers but also...special? Could be a series based on venue or vibe (sexy vs romantic vs cool girl). Love and trust you!!!
@The_Cherokee_Gypsy Agree! But mostly l would say to any bride whatever scent make you feel happy, sexy, but also whatever scent make their groom drool! We all know what scents our men react to strongly.
That From The Garden is one of my new favorites. The first time I sprayed it, I literally went “Oh my gawd!” It’s clean and fresh, green and simply beautiful.
I will always LOVE vanilla ❤️ but the 540 dupes I'm SOOO SICK OF!!! My top 3 vanilla is 1 Burberry Goddess 2 D&G Devotion, and 3rd is Mugler's Alien Goddess
Ombré leather is one that stays in my rotation. I mix it with the 7 virtues cherry ambition and Lovefest burning cherry. I have also been known to mix it with rose prick as well!
Rare beauty's hair/ body if you read the ingredients it's actually for your hair. Can spray on body, but I love love love it for my hair!! The scent is fresh yet so comforting ☺️ ❤❤
A banana scent? YUM I need to look into that. I have recently started using Hempz original scent body wash, its labeled floral banana but it reminds me of the banana runtz candy. I also love using the brand Sun Bum for banana scented hair products as well as my SPF. All I am missing is a spray!❤
Also, if yall want a cherry coke scent, BDK rouge smoking is the one. I own Tom ford cherry smoke (One of my favorites) and Tom ford Ombré leather (another favorite of mine) and Tom ford rose prick (not so crazy about it anymore) I own black opium over red and I love it. I bought amber haze and i took it right back! Smells like dentist flouride!
Love 7 Virtues Amber Vanilla. Thanks for the recommendation! Read a Sephora review that said it reminded them of B&BW Sweet Pea. Can confirm, maybe a little more grown up. I will be saving up for a full bottle once I finish the travel size. I don't like really strong perfumes so this is perfect.
I've had my eye on In Too Deep but I think you just saved my wallet! I have Cheriosa 59 and im not really loving it so definitely dont want to add something else similar to my collection
I’m so glad I picked up Paris Corner Emir Cherry Cola because that Kilian Born to Be Unforgettable sounds more expensive but a wimpy version of the Emir Cherry Cola.
Hi, I'm new to all these fragrances; I like Ballet Rose and Magnolia by Philosophy and the original Soap and Glory scent, and some others by Bath and Bodyworks. I wondered if you've ever smelled a candle called Frazier Fir by Thymes. It's my favorite Christmas candle. I am in love with your channel; I've watched you on your beauty ❤channel and really enjoy, but this channel that I just discovered today is incredible!! I'm hooked! Thank you❤
Queen of fragrance reviews, I'm always thrilled when you drop a new video! I've gotten a few scents on your recommendation and I'm living my life FRAGRANT! ❤
My first time watching your fragrance channel and I’m obsessed! Not only are you so well spoken but the comments are so friendly and supportive. I’m a hooked!
BASIC Vanilla are my favorite scents. ❤ I’m OBSESSED with SDJ 59. I’m almost out of my big bottle 😂. It’s a vanilla whipped cream scent ! It’s so light and yummy.
I just ordered 5ml samples of Escapade gourmand & bianco latte and sooo much more impressed with these and saving them for going out nights or feeling sexy!
Not a comment about perfumes, but I LOVE your nails ❤❤❤ Also, i appreciate all of your perfume reviews. I just got into perfumes back in December and I have watched so many of your videos since then
I just picked up boardwalk delight the body and hair mist on sale on the skylar website.i have the perfume and love it!so I'm looking forward to the mist.😊❤
Would you be up for a bracket style of your favorite fragrance families? Skin scents, chypres, vanillas, etc? I am finding it so hard to not buy all the things and I wonder if those direct comparison would be helpful and fun? Especially with March madness coming up?
Hey Lauren, do you plan on doing another video based on specific fragrance notes? I think it would be really interesting if you did fragrances with a cashmeran note!
I'm not a black opium fan but I like the over red. I get so many compliments on it. I had to write it down for the teller at my bank because she wanted to go buy it
i swear 59 reminds me of something i’ve smelled before which is why i didn’t end up buying, i also caught a mild plasticy smell .. ! i might buy it later on once i go through some of my other mists. i DID just buy a large size of rio radiance tho, that is my ABSOLUTE FAVE!
Have you heard of D’Anamm fragrances? I saw a video of the sampler set that includes pho and rice fragrances and would love to hear your thoughts on those!!
Ive been obsessed with daisy wild. I never read the notes before watching this video and i was suprised. my thoughts was always that it smelled like green apple skin and fresh cut grass. 10/10 scent.
Loved this video ❤ I have bought so many fragrances in the past couple of months it's insane. Sol De Janeiro 59 is one that I really really enjoy! Tom Ford Vanilla Sex is easiest the worst smelling fragrance that I put my nose on..lol..smh. Love your content.
I wanted to pick up the 7 virtue on a blind buy, but glad to hear that you love it. I picked up the sample set from Henry Rose and 5 sens as well as phur missing person in the oil, bc as much as I love that scent it does not last on me. I love Tom Ford Oud Wood on my husband. And their (I think) Tobacco Oud makes you smell like you have an investment portfolio. Definitely love TF on men for sure, but not on me...too masculine.
I found it finally!! We clicked on the beauty channel with Fall & Winter scents. I'm so sad when it's time to put them away because I don't like floral!! I like Viktor & Rolf Nectar, Killian Love don't be shy and still love Sol de Janeiro '62, but desperately looking for something new! Sephora sale starts tomorrow... I'll pick up the Ellis Brooklyn discovery set but I'm not confident. I'd love to find a niche (cause I don't like 80% of scents) I just want to get a sample or buy a travel size. Oh I loved 7 Virtues Santal Vanilla this past Winter, maybe I'll try the Amber hopefully I can wear it for summer. Thanks 🤍
I'm definitely interested in the 7 virtues amber vanilla and the 5 sens in too deep. Also excited to get my nose on phlur strawberry letter. I don't have the funds to buy a bunch of travels unfortunately so just have to keep waiting and see if they come in store! But my current scent obsession out of my collection is dior poison girl edp layered with the nette the vanille
Cheirosa 59 is so fking good I hate it 😭 it’s 3x as expensive as a bbw travel size for only .5 oz more but it’s so good I had to get it and the cream and now my wallet cries forever 😢
I was thinking the same thing about stuff feeling very bath and bodyworks adjacent! Definitely got that vibe from Sunkissed Dahlia. Nothing really wrong with that, but it wasn't the vibe I was picturing haha
The in the garden smells SOOOOOOO good as a candle. I cannot imagine wearing it on my skin but i am obsessed with the tomato leaf scent in my kitchen….. also its so funny how your description of vanilla sex makes me really want to smell it haha
Loved the video! I'm a perfume splurge at the moment but live in a remote part of the world so don't really have a way to test stuff before I buy it. Your videos have helped guide my purchases, thank you
need!! an opinion on V&R ruby orchid i am OBSESSED and i typically hate florals, i have a sample i sprayed once at night, fell asleep and when i woke up it was still there
I'm super excited to smell the new Donna Born in Roma Green scent! It just popped up on Sephora a few days ago and it's not available to buy as of this moment (:
phlur amber haze body mist lasted not at all on me. if i sprayed a bunch of it it would last a bit but by doing that it would smell too sickly. i’m not one to complain about the longevity of a fragrenace usually. especially not a mist. but
Love your reviews! My top three perfumes (one is an oil) - are 1. Juliette Has A Gun - Lady Vengance 2. Hot Topic - Ragdoll 3. Sugar & Spite Bathery - Grimm (perfume oil)
It is so interesting that perfumes smell so different on different people…the Kayali Litchee is very woody on me with a touch of floral. Nothing sweet after 10 minutes.
Got from the Garden. Hermes did it well. Had to do the travel size, and will enjoy from time to time. :) Thanks for the insights, you are saving me from myself :)
Only Tom Ford scents that work for me are Ombre Leather and Tobacco Vanille. I only mix them with floral or fruity scents. Or skin scents to make them deeper sexier.
Have you done a review of Goddess by Burberry? Ive been wearing Clinique Happy for yrs but just found Goddess & am soooo in love with the scent. Thanks for your honesty assessments i appreciate you. ❤
When it comes to spring time perfumes….everyone either wants to do strictly fruity, or strictly floral but I have yet to see a fragrance that a combination of a both, while being a big sweet however not a super heavy scent. For me personally, with fruity scents I don’t wanna smell like I just sprayed myself with fruit punch and with floral scents I don’t wanna smell so much like florals that I end up attracting any bees. I want a combo of both that’s not too strong so it can also be layered with other fragrances and then strong enough that you don’t need to spray that much of it, and you can tell that it’s there and will last all day.
Totally agree with you on TF Vanilla Sex. Gross notes in there and in my opinion his fragrances are way over priced in general. SDJ 59 is lovely and comforting. Vanilla skin Phlur been sold out at Sephora for quite a while. May never know what that one is like and I may just give up inquiring on availability at this point. I have bare vanilla and vanilla 28 and you are not the first person to say they are similar. Better to save the $ lol.
I tried the SDJ 59 scent in store and I found it too be a little too powdery for me. Where as I blind bought the 5 Sens In Too Deep fragrance (no testers) and I love it way more. I see how they seem similar because of the vanilla and sandalwood. But In too Deep to me has such a bright opening with the bergamot and to me is not powdery at all. To me it smells like a sugar cookie with the pink icing with a bit of citrus. I’m surprised it’s not cloying syrupy sweet but very light spun sugary and warm with the sandalwood. I’m also surprised how long it lasts considering it’s a clean fragrance.
I get the burny nose feels with the Snif Vanilla one. When I spray it, it dissipates and is better, but straight from the bottle it smells like alcohol or something.
Nice reviews I ordered the lychee from next yesterday in travel size been side eyeing it for a while hope to like it rocking the mood ring from phlur I’m obsessed with that one and yes body mists is a thing I’m glad more and more are coming out but I don’t know if it’s just me but I didn’t like the new purple sol de jereno body mist which is strange I like all of them but that one 🤷🏼♀️
The Nest perfume is nice!! Definitely gave me Delina vibes!! I can see how the new Sol de Janeiro scent could be off for some people! As much as I love it, it does seem different than the others from the line and almost has a plastic or medical type note to it to me! 😊
lychee: lie-chee not lee-chee ❤ i love mood ring, favorite scent of the year for sure, i wanna try the new daisy wild as well! 59 isn’t bad but not super interesting, hated from the garden!
Girl same on Eden Sparkling Lychee. I was so hoping for something amazing since I love Lychee notes in perfume, but this was such a miss. It is 100000% giving gummy worms, and lasts for maybe 3 hours on me. Not worth the price when you can get a similar vibe and performance from body splashes.
Into the garden smelled just like freshly cut grass, and I couldn't get pass it. It does last a good 6+ hours I feel that after that it becomes a scent bubble/skin scent.
glad i'm not the only one whose nose burns from vanilla skin! don't get me wrong, its a great scent, but that burning sensation at the beginning is a little off putting and makes me question whether or not i want to repurchase.
Daisy Wild smells unmistakably like banana flavored runts, or banana laffy taffy. I was super disappointed honestly, because the bottle is SO COOL and the name implies something more earthy or maybe woodsy. The scent doesn't match at all to the aesthetics imo!
