You're like me l also don't want to be a collector, l want to be able to wear every scent l have.

Well I am in love with By The Fireplace during the winter😍. For years, since Marshmallow Fireside wallflowers came out at B&BW, I wanted a perfume of it. I would beg the managers to give them word about making body care. Then one day I went to Sephora and asked the SA to find me a scent that’s close to it. She referred me to BTF. I’m in love. Yes the first spray is intense but the dry down.... omgggg. It’s the perfect winter scent. I love spraying my big furry winter robe or even scarves with it. It feels so comforting and cozy for me. The longer the scent sits, the sweeter it gets. Like sweet marshmallow with a bonfire far in the distance. Comforting bliss!!

Elie Saab is my signature scent! It works perfectly with my body chemistry and I can wear it all year round.

I am so glad u don over hype any fragrance.. It actually helps n prevents from blind, thoughtless buying..

@bubbleblizz8572 3 года назад

Blind buy Ellie Saab because I watched this video, and OMG I fell in love with it! Just elegant, fun, light, happy, pretty fragrance! I can definitely wear it all seasons, all day any occasion! And I’m 49y/o, it makes me feel younger!thank you for the video!

Nice to hear that you love coco mademoiselle intense! That’s my fave scent on top of coco noir. Still to try ellie saab edp and aerin hibiscus palm.

@ChaoticCurlz 4 года назад

i'm just realizing that i don't prefer a patchouli heavy sent. but the note is growing on me because before i wouldn't give it a chance at all. but now i appreciate the depth it adds when blended just right.Thanks for another lovely vid =)

@shellsm3818 2 года назад

Just blind bought Elie Saab and Coco Intense! I’m nervous with Le Perfume because JP Scandal really overwhelmed me and I gifted that to my mom. I heard CM intense is similar to Miss Dior so I hope I reminisce!! I love your reviews and purchase Be Layered Elixir thanks to you and I LOVE it. I am so appreciative of your reviews thank you ❤️

I like the way you stay true to how you want your collection to be. We can always rely on you to give an honest opinion & not just follow the crowd on 'popular' fragrances.. thanku! 😉 ❤

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

thank you so much! Yes I can only try to be transparent and honest :). I think I do like some of the popular ones for sure but others I really don't care for. :). Thanks for your kind words!

@Pocahontas689 4 года назад

Thank you and i appreciate her for doing that.

@jbell6852 4 года назад

I agree. Chanel Mademoiselle Intense is strong. One spray is all you need and the scent never leaves your clothes. I prefer the Intense over the original bc the og is too floral. I was glad to find the Intense which was perfect for me. If you have the coins it’s nice owning both. Wear the og for daytime and during the hotter months and the Intense for the opposite. But you don’t necessarily need both. The Intense stays true to the og dna. It’s a warmer scent but still floral. I wear mine anytime and the scent fits me just fine.

@sxy291 4 года назад

I ended up getting Coco Mademoiselle Intense. It's beautiful! I trust your opinion and reviews, now I probably should wait till next spring before I purchase any more fragrances!

@benda-annevanniekerk6833 4 года назад

I don’t understand the hype on Coco Mademoiselle (sorry not sorry) but the intense is sooooo nice

@sxy291 4 года назад

Hi. I absolutely love your channel and reviews! Since I own the original Coco Mademoiselle, I’m so intrigued about the Intense version. I need to try it ASAP and from your description of this scent, I can be fairly certain that I will love it too! For someone who loves patchouli, this will surely be a hit for me! This could be my new fall/winter fragrance. I love perfume!! Thanks so much for reviewing it!

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

Thanks for your kind words! No problem :):):)

@cassandratapia5123 3 года назад

I just got Ellie Saab in the mail today and I thought the exact same thing. I hope it grows on me I really want to love it.

@Mark_R_Tho 3 года назад

CM Intense is INCREDIBLE!!!! I wear it on my wrists, then a men’s cologne everywhere else. When it dries down, it smells like dessert (in a good way!)😍

@1naturalbeauty 3 года назад

I just received samples of Hibiscus Palm yesterday (picked them up thanks to your channel). I have travel sizes of TF Eau de Soleil Blanc and Soleil Blanc, and although I think they are beautiful fragrances I think I prefer Hibiscus Palm.

Unfortunately, Le Parfum was a major miss for me. The honey note was so nauseating to me. I gave it away right away to my sister and she seems to like it. Lovely video!

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

Sorry to hear, it's not everyone's cup of tea. Who knows, maybe I'll end up gifting it again at some point. Thank you for sharing! :)

@HappinessSparkles 4 года назад

I totally agree about not smelling like a fireside candle and there seems to be a lot of that out there !! I do love solel blanc ,I have a sample of it and put it on at night It’s funny how we can change our minds about a fragrance . Ohh coco Mademoiselle original is in my top 10 and my bottle is getting low 😞 so I do need the intense as well Awesome review Hugs Frances 🥰🥰🥰

@samahabdullah718 4 года назад

I am glad that you mentioned By the fireplace, cause I have it in my wishlist. Thank you.i have and adore coco Mademoiselle intense

@maribethnewell6743 4 года назад

Just recently sampled by the fireplace and in the library. They are both nice but I feel like they would work better as a room scent for me. I also sampled Lipstick On and that one was instant love 💕 oh my it is beautiful! Elie Saab is a nice one but doesn’t last long on me.

@bonniehelms9072 2 года назад

I love Coco Mademoiselle. I was sent a sample of the Intense by Chanel. At first I didn’t like it. Now I do so will order it along with the body gel and lotion.

@szilvia266 4 года назад

I love your minimalist perfume approach. I only started collecting fragrances late last year, but am keeping an eye on not getting overwhelmed and collecting too much. Wondering if you have a rule of a certain number? I just have Elie Saab Le Parfum in my cart 😍 so beautiful on the skin. You've got me very curious about the Bvlgari Goldea, I love ylang ylang, sounds divine and I've never heard anyone talk about it! 🙏

@betsybrig9066 4 года назад

I love Hibiscus Palm more than Tom Ford Soleil Blanc and Eau de Soleil Blanc it’s my favorite beachy scent. By the Fireplace was a love at first sniff for me I would probably by the 10 ml and only wear it to bonfires or if I ever went camping 🤣

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

Haha exactly. It would be a great camping scent! 🏕

You should try Elie Saab le parfum intense, I think it is better than the edp and the nose behind is MFK.

@thuvo5167 Год назад

Can anyone tell me is there any perfume like elie saab? A person that I hate wear le parfum ( sister from my husband) so I need a another perfume like elie saab because I don’t want that my husband think at his sister if I wear le parfum

@dat9096 4 года назад

Patchouli is a very polarizing component in perfumery. Depending on how it's used I have heard being described as airy, light but also I have heard the term 'dirty patchouli' which I imagine is how would it smell when it is highly concentrated. A lot also depends on the other notes it is blended with, concentration etc. so I don't find it at all surprising that people who dislike patchouli in a perfume like Angel wouldn't mind it in others like the some of the Chanel perfumes. 😜

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

Yeah true! I totally agree... I’m actually starting to get sick of the patchouli in Jimmy Choo believe it or not!

@sumiller833 4 года назад

I agree with you Elie Saab la parfum has a great balance of honey and orange blossom. I'm not a big patchouli person, but I don't mind it in this perfume.

@TranCamTu-Thai-Viet-all 3 года назад

I am about to blind buy Elie Sab le parfum but I decide to hold on until I can sniff it first. Thanks for the review.

@mysticveile 3 года назад

I have the Elie Saab le parfum, trying really hard to love it but... not there yet. Your review is really encouraging me to keep trying. I'll wait some more and try again, otherwise might have to find a better home for it. I wouldn't mind hoarding it just for the pretty bottle (I don't have a huge number of perfumes so decluttering is not an issue) but I might as well swap it for something I love and will wear, right?!

@thesimplechiclife 3 года назад

Exactly. I ended up decluttering it because I just couldn’t make myself wear it; it gave me a headache. So beautiful to me but .. just couldn’t wear it!:)

@kathihaynie3264 4 года назад

Thanks, so interesting to know the fragrance notes, love flower bomb, do you think I will like Aaron hibiscus? I am a nurse too! Am a fragrance addict as well just wish I could discern the notes! Thanks for your lovely videos!

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

If you enjoy a somewhat beachy scent but without smelling like sunscreen, and you like something luxurious and sparkling you'd like it! :)

@tinyartbymak5163 4 года назад

I have both coco mademoiselle and love them both but intense is my favorite of the two.

@ikkeprasetyaning5727 4 года назад

I found that some niche fragrances are not to be worn directly on skin but to be sprayed around you to give this special setting like sitting by the fireplace etc. But it's too expensive for me to spray niche fragrances in the air. Could you please review the elixirs of nature line from body shop? The swietenia one smells like honey and orange blossoms. And I like their technology to create the perfume without destroying the flowers

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

I would love to; I have yet to try some of the fragrances from the body shop.

@ikkeprasetyaning5727 4 года назад

@@thesimplechiclife the body shop perfumes are mostly too light and simple for my taste. But the elixirs of nature line is quite good.

@AniaAntul 4 года назад

Cody! Don't make me buy any more fragrances, haha! :)) I just got back from Shoppers Drug Mart with Sarah Jessica Parker - Lovely, and Elie Saab - Girl of Now Forever - both for $19,95! I couldn't believe that GoN was in that section! And also, I got back home to a package from PerfumeOnline - Olympea and Insolence EDP. And I'm still thinking whether or not I should get YSL Manifesto, because it's on sale on their website ($82.60 for 90ml!) and of course because I really adore the scent!

@PaolaBianka 4 года назад

Hey! Is Elie Saab a safe blind buy? and there's cedar in the base, does it register bitter? I have that in my next blindbuy list...

@thesimplechiclife 4 года назад

the cedar is not very noticable, like I say it's majority a white floral and honey, I wouldn't say it's a safe blind buy just because when I first blind bought it I didn't like it. I was expecting it to be sweeter because girl of now is so sweet, so I was disappointed initially. But everyone's different :)

I will try it again to see how i feel about it now. I had it in a 50 ml bottle ...

@OpinionatedScents 4 года назад

By the fireplace is just too much. Eau de Soleil Blanc is stunning so is Soleil Blanc. All of the Elie Saab le Parfum's stink. I do not like dated old lady smelling fragrances. If the scent is described as mature, sophisticated or classy it means dated, old lady and boring. I find that I like perfumes that don't smell like perfumes or chemicals. My favorite perfumes right now are La Belle, Mon Guerlain edp, Poison Girl edp, MFK540, Delina, Olympea. I think that Chanel and Tom Ford are the worst perfume houses ever. LOL I still like watching your videos even though I don't really agree. I find that most times if you don't like it I love it which is refreshing. We can't all walk around smelling alike.
