This big box of perfumes for the giveaway is a little different, as I say in the video, I’d like to see it going to someone who doesn’t have a lot of perfumes but really enjoys wearing fragrances. Esp those on a really tight budget for whatever reason (single parent, student, difficult circumstances , illness, recent job loss, struggling with life, addiction, etc.) If you are too uncomfortable sharing your story here, please send me an email to …theperfumenest@gmail.com. I try to read all of my email unless they go to spam. I will let this go one to two weeks. Must be in US because this box weights A TON! Good luck. And I’ve got more Giveaways coming up (actually this Wednesday for Valentines). ❤
Hi, Chris! I really enjoy your content and learning about fragrances. I am a returning student on a tight budget living back at home. I own very few perfumes, but exploring scents is so exciting and creative. I really appreciate being considered for the give away. It would help me start a collection until I graduate and get steady work in my field (graphic and web design). Thanks for the consideration. Looking forward to future content.
Well I get 1000 a month on disability and have for 3 years now. It's tough but it's just me and my 12 year old tea cup yorkie so I can pay my bills. I have 3 niche perfumes in which I can send u 1 I got 4 x mas that I do not like. At 2. were gifts 1i saved and bought which is honor by amouage. I do splurge and get scentbird on months electric bill is not to much. If u choose me I will be thrilled. How fun it would be to start PT with new scents. U have a beautiful day !!!
Hi, I'm a person who never comments for giveaways but I just had to for this 1. I'm fairly new to the fragrance world. I am falling in love due to the price and longevity of the arabian perfume. I would love to have these to my little collection. Especially the quissa pink, I hear so many good things about that 1!
Hi. I would really enjoy getting these perfumes. I love to wear fragrances but I can’t really afford them. I have a mental illness and I am on a fixed income. These sound like they smell great! Thank you for your consideration!
I adore you and love watching your content. My hubby has a TBI & PTSD from the war and we have 3 children in which 2 have Autism and Epilepsy. We are on a very limited budget as we live on my hubby's disability pay. I can't afford to spoil myself as most perfumes are priced high. Would love to have the gift box but don't want to take away from another more deserving. Thank you for all you do.
How absolutely beautiful of you to share with someone that may love fragrances but may not have the budget available to purchase. You are a true angel.
Hi Chris.... What a wonderful gift for someone......someone who loves fragrance, but can't afford to indulge... at all. I hope just such a person wins. I have enough....I'm not entering... This is such an incredibly kind gesture....💛💛💛💛
I am a huge perfume lover, but am on a fixed income at 70 years old. I tend to try to find dupes of the popular trending fragrances because of the fixed, limited income. This is how I found Rifaaqat, which I LOVE! I just can’t spend more than $50 for a fragrance no matter how much I want it, and many are over $300 a bottle. Middle Eastern fragrances give those like me out here some affordable options. Thank you for thinking of us. That is very kind and sweet of you.❤
Ha! I just bought Khamrah Qawah. Never bought the original as I own Angels share and love it. It sweet on me and not necessarily beast but does leave a lovely cloud around me. The giveaway is awfully sweet and as a subscriber admire that you prefer to give away rather than resell items sent inPR. It’s the best way to pay it forward. I’m not in need, and have been eyeing Quissa and is currently in my cart, so I hope these go to someone who deserves a treat! Thx❤❤❤
Thank you for this video. I'm sure I'll be looking into a couple of these (I ordered one of them yesterday, already have both versions of Khamrah (with no intention of decluttering either), and really hope your gift goes to someone who is looking to expand their own collection, and is also on a limited budget. I've been collecting for such a long time and have been fortunate enough to be able to do so. I applaud your "paying it forward" generosity and hope the fragrances go to a home where they will be loved and appreciated.
That’s so sweet of you Chris to share. I am a fan of your channel and I trust your opinion on a perfume. I just love listening to your calming voice when you describe a perfume you love. But of course I could just imagine them coz I can’t afford a lot of them. I would really love to receive your gifts. Thank you and may you and your family will be blessed more.
Ive been wearing rose 01 for a while and have gotten so many compliments… thanks for mentioning it, i know i can trust your nose 🥰🥰🥰 may try a few mentioned in the video
Starting to obsess over middle eastern perfumes which is how I just found your channel, I have yet to bite the bullet on any being a single mom and it would be soooo awesome to be able to try these ❤🎉 hoping you review more bc you are so fun to watch😊
Thank you for this! I’ve been looking and looking but haven’t pulled the trigger on these M.E. Fragrances, except Junoon Noir, the Dama Bianca dupe. I just don’t fully trust anyone else to not fall for hype and just be honest when something isn’t that great or flat out smells cheap, but I know you’ll be unabashedly honest ❤
Sad to miss out (I'm in Australia). But I really appreciate your comprehensive review of these budget friendly fragrances. I am just starting to learn more about perfumes, and it can be overwhelming trying to discern what I would really like. Thank you for the time you put into your videos 🩷
Hi Chris! I have recently started my journey with fragrance and am obsessed. I am a business owner and primary caretaker of my 96 year old mom so there isn’t a lot of $$$$ left over for full bottles of fragrance. I live your channel and when I wake up in the middle of the night and can’t quiet the worry in my head, I watch your videos and my thoughts will ultimately turn happy. Thank you for your commitment and the hard work that having the social media channels you have must take! ❤😊
Chris, you never cease to amaze me. I have always owned a few middle eastern perfumes, but thank you so much for this video, as there are now many more available that fit the bill.
I don’t need these fragrances but I wanted to say how much I enjoyed this… I love Arabian fragrances (some) and boy do you get a bang for your buck with those babies! I’ve got Rifaaqat by Paris corner in my cart and I’m looking forward to getting my nose on it, (blind buying) because you’ve mentioned it several times and it sounds amazing 😊
@@ThePerfumeNest I haven’t but I’ve heard wonderful things and the notes are right up my alley… BTW, I’m curious, I’m getting “pickle” from scents with sandalwood… is it the way my brain works, my body chemistry or the perfume? It smells the same to me on others 😟
Taskeen sounds so intriguing - love those peachy notes! Thanks for introducing me to new fragrances regularly - your descriptions make it so much easier to make up my mind what to spend my limited perfume budget on! 😊
Hi Chris , great video....I have put some of your recommendations in my wish list super excited....I am new to the perfume community, so i am learning and have an inexperienced nose...I am not familiar with this type of perfume ...anyway I love being educated and am grateful that these are an the affordable side....have a blessed day ❤
Wow, what a sweet generous gift offer😊 i would be thrilled to have those perfumes.. I mainly buy oil impressions of high-end fragrances due to affordability. I was forced to retire from my work as a hair stylist 4ys ago after i busted my back and became disabled. My income took a big hit...so, some luxuries are not practical 🤷♀️ but, I'm always grateful and stay positive ☺️ i most especially enjoy your "cheapies on a budget videos" pls keep us in the loop on these.❤
😆❤️ You have such a nice collection already. The draw for many of these in the community is their price tag but the negative is it’s hard to sample them first. So it truly is hit or miss. I simply cannot do the popular ME Oud/musks. Those are a big “no” and I declutteted/ gave those away.
I adore fragrances. I dream with them. I can't live without them. Its a feeling, memories. I'm from Greece. Every time i see you and i enjoy your reviews. I know that i' m very far. Thank you.
I've been really wanting to delve into Middle Eastern fragrances. I went down a rabbit hole and got completely overwhelmed. This is so timely. Thank you! *armadillo poop!!!
Everytime I watch your videos like I’m like 🤩🤩🤩🤩 you’re so beautiful, elegant, that person that we look and know that take good care of themselves. I love that on people ! 🫶🏻 I can see your daughter looking up to you and being inspired by you. If one day I have a daughter, I wanna be like that to her too.
If you're a big mango fan, I wonder what you'd make of Masa from Lattafa's Pride collection. It's supposed to be an 'inspired by' Ganymede with a mango twist. And the bottle design is honestly one of my favourite ones from the Arabian houses. It looks like a genie is supposed to come out of it.
Thanks for doing this video! I love your perfume tastes and I have a more limited budget. I have found a lot of Arabian perfumes that have worked well for me but some that really didn't - seems like they are very polarizing for me. I love watching reviews since they are hard to sample.
Please enter me in the giveaway 😊 I want to build my collection but it’s hard on a stay at home mom budget. Just discovered your channel by the way and really enjoy watching!
It was so fun to go through these with you! I have decants of most of them (from a kind friend to whom I am grateful) and own a couple. When you spoke about each one I grab the decant and could smell along with you. 💕💕💕
I have Delina, Delina Exclusif, and Rose 01. I’ve gotten more compliments on the Rose 01 than the two Delinas combined. I personally prefer the Swiss Arabian version. It absolutely has a better lasting and overall performance.
Great video! Other than the two rose perfumes (Mohra and Rose 01), I've got them all. 🙈You are 100% correct about eternal coffee.. It's more German chocolate cake, than coffee-like! Mango Punch! I am currently in my Mango Era, and I prefer this fragrance to Mango Skin.
@@ThePerfumeNest lol.. For real. Got them all and then some. No, no RU-vid channel. Another fragrance you should try is the new Lattafa /Quentin Bisch collaboration, the fragrance Teriaq. It's a very sweet fragrance, with apricot in the opening and lots of vanilla and a bit of suade in the dry down. This gives me LaBelle (the OG) vibes. The apricot comes off as pear to me. I'm curious to hear your review!
Really enjoyed this video, I've been noticing that Arab fragrances are cornering the market. I would like to sample the four giveaways that you are so generously donating. "Thank you so much and keep up the good work." 🙂👍
So happy to hear you talking about Musamam White Intense, I just bought it. I also ended up decluttering Lira because I prefer Sana as well. Great list 🫶
These all sound amazing! I've been adding to cart like a mad woman throughout this video. Will need to go back and watch again to narrow it down. I've really been getting into Middle Eastern and Arabian fragrances lately so love all these new recommendations. Would love to be considered for the giveaway.
I’m always so impressed with the quality of the bottles I knew you would talk about Casablanca and my one and only middle eastern fragrance that I own Some of these others sound really nice also Watching while I clean up my kitchen !! Mango punch sounds intriguing, I might like that one 🤔 Good luck to the winners Thanks for sharing Chris Hugs 🥰
@@ThePerfumeNest I searched it up while watching the video. There must be a lot of people talking about it. I have a ton of other inexpensive, Middle Eastern scents I want to try. I added it to my long list of “perfumes to try”.
I am in Canada , cannot win but enjoy your videos, just ordered Sana as that scent profile is a favorite of mine. I have oakcha's version, italian cello, but another version is welcome in my opinion. Thanks.
Oh my gosh! It’s delicious! It’s still on sale at Max Aroma for 106$!! Hopefully you can get it for that price. I was thrilled it did. I can’t stop wearing it.
And yes….this honking box would cost 587$ to ship to Canada! And I’d get tossed in the clinker also (since Canada don’t allow individuals to ship perfume by air). 🤦♀️😆
Hi Chris! I watch you religiously and I have actually bought some of your recommendations and they did not disappoint. I’m on a very very limited tight budget and feel that Arabian perfumes were my best options. Thank you sooo much for your unbiased content and i look forward to watching more videos! ❤❤❤
Hi Chris. Thank you for sharing your Middle Eastern recommendations. I would love to be considered for these fragrances. I am a fragrance lover, but l lost my job last year. My birthday is in March, so this would be an early present. I appreciate your consideration.
@@ThePerfumeNest @ThePerfumeNest only if you have time to decant.❤ White Intense, Eternal Coffee, Mango Punch and the Lira one were the ones I was considering. They all sound amazing!
Hi Chris, first... I can't unsee your candle covers as red glass pasties 😂 I'm getting Lira hair mist sent from a V's Day sale, I'm so excited! I have lots of hair but not lots of money for niche. I also got Delina as a hair mist a while back. Of those you reviewed, I only have Khamrah and 20ml of Nebras. I'm not as much into caramel or sweetness as I thought I'd be, so, won't be getting the Qahwa since a disappearing coffee note would sadden me 😢 And as much as I like Nebras, I think my sample of Eilish is better, however I don't need both. I've blind bought Qaa'ed, Infini Rose (both are beasts!), Fire Your Desire, Raghba, and a sample of Ansaam Silver. (Just to be clear, I'm not entering, but on behalf of your viewers, thank you for the giveaway!)
I would love I would give so much love to these giveaway fragrances. Fragrance is to expensive for a mom like me. The ones you picked are perfection. I hope I win, I never have good things happen to me. You are a lovely soul to do such a thing. God bless you sweet girl.❤ Julie s
I have several middle eastern fragrances - they are so good quality! They were affordable when I bought them. Now several prices have creeped up to 120-15 usd in online stores that deliver to my country and I have to pay 40% additional taxes. Quite sad.
@@ThePerfumeNest I live in the Faroe Islands 😊 Shaghag Oud Tonka goes for 124.95 USD. Rose 01 and Casablanca are both for 129.95 USD. Fleur de Orientica is 139.99 USD. Lattafas Eclair is even 268.68 USD 😱 Those are middle eastern perfumes I am interested in and therefor looked up 😊 But that price plus 40% is just too much to pay and actully more expensive than designer perfume at the store. But I try to remind myself that perfume is a luxury and not a nessescity. And the perfumes I own bring me great joy, even though I don't have a big collection. I still watch your videos and love to hear about fragrance - even if I'm unable to own many of them. 😊❤️ Thank you for your videos.
@@jorunpolsdottir7114 oh my gosh that is insane! Please don’t even consider spending that kind of money. You could get some amazing niche perfumes for that. But thank you soooooo much for the lovely comment and for stopping by!!
I am a senior citizen who started watching you from the beginning of your reviews. At first I thought you would be too classy and high-end 34:22 34:22 but boy was I wrong! You are all-encompassing… Nicki Minaj. Guuurl! Anyway, please include me in your giveaway and keep up the good work!
Just recently discovered your channel!! Love your fragrance content! As a single mom of 3 who adores perfume I would LOVE to be considered for your giveaway! I’ve really been wanting to try Quisaa Pink!! I tried Oud Tonka but it’s just too almondy for my taste. Thanks for sharing your gifts!!
I've been telling everyone about Musamam White Intense and how I was at a gathering one night and just kept thinking about going home to spray it on and get under the covers. Heaven.
@@ThePerfumeNest I went nuts (for me) and did a haul of that, plus Mayar Natural Intense and Ajayeb Dubai Portrait. Not stuff I'd normally go for but I love them all.
Another great video! I’ve been trying more Arabian fragrances this year also. Love both Khamrahs & I have Qahwa, but Angels’s Share beats them out for my taste. I’m also enjoying Qaed al Fursan Unlimited. It’s a tropical vanilla.
Peach me pleaseee, Jus making it thru college so majority of my sampling is in store and 2mls, would love these arab frags! ✨💛 even if its not me love ur giving spirit Chris
I would love to have all of these! I have 9 children and am currently in school to be a nurse. My husband is a chaplain and working on a master’s degree. We are also foster parents and have adopted out of foster care. Needless to say, our budget is very limited. But I love fragrance and would be so appreciative if you pick me. Thank you!
Have been watching quite a few videos covering ME fragrances lately and am developing a list of products that may allow me to wear those profiles that I normally could not afford. Just added Sana to the list. Thanks.
Please make sure you check it out on Max Aroma first. I’m not affiliated but it’s on such a great sale now I’d hate it if you paid full retail while it’s 40% off. ❤️
Great content! I find a lot of people compare Khamrah to Angel's Share based more on the bottle and the cinnamon. Try comparing Khamrah to Dates Delight by House of Oud and you'll find it's more similar.
id love those perfumes!! what a kind gesture🎉❤ i know exactly where i would place them in my room 😂😅 im in the US & im subscribed with my bell on :) !!
I discovered you a few weeks ago. I love your notes and links and straight forward, sensible way of presenting fragrance. Because of this video, I am buying Mohra Rose for my daughter for Easter. She loves Schitts Creek and would be tickled to wear a perfume with the name of her favorite character.
OMG! That person on a more than restricted budget it's me! And I'm not complaining or crying about it because I know there are people on a much worse situation but I LOVE fragrances and I'd love to be able to try the ones you showed at the end of your video...perfumes make me feel pretty and put together no matter the health and/or financial hardships so I would absolutely love to have the chance to get those perfumes and I'll absolutely share with others. Thank you Chris 😊 ❤
I just received the shaghaf oud Tonka the beginning was Delightful!! But the end notes of what you said I don't Like The Tonka or Wood! At all the End is Disgusting! Man Scent I wish it would stay in the Beginning fresh sweet almond /cherry scent also I just got it so I learned it needs to Sit!! After about ten sprays! I will let it sit cause the Wood Or Oud Dry Down is for Men! And I want women if you like that you will be Happy The End Notes I Do Not! Like At All.
I’m not crazy about Angel’s Share. It’s okay but too much really - for me. And I don’t find lasting power great, unlike a lot of people. I want a good cinnamon fragrance. I used to love Lauder Cinnabar when my mother wore it:-))
I'm sitting here enjoying my coffee and listening to all of these amazing sounding fragrances! I agree- Shaghaf Oud is too strong for me to actually *wear* , although I do think it's gorgeous, but I've been hearing quite a bit about the Tonka one, I like velvet tonka pretty well, so maybe I'd like this one even better!
I’d love Quissa Pink! I’m in Florida so that would be perfect. I have zero budget and terrible issues with anosmia so the list of notes I can smell is small! ❤
I do love wearing fragrance, though, so I guess I need to stick with ones that are tried and true for me, mostly the warm gourmands-coffee, vanilla, caramel, etc, and maybe lighter gourmands in warmer weather. I can't afford to keep trying even cheapies and have them not work for me because they do add up, $20 at a time. I have just tossed some brand new ones in a box to give away to the Humane Society Thrift Store, including Rare Tiffany, Khaltaat, Barrakat Satin Oud, Armaf La Rosa (2nd bottle, partially used), Armaf Momento Lace plus a few others that are not Arabian scents. Maybe my skin chemistry is changing or my nose is just exhausted, LOL, who knows? I did use entire bottles of Khamrah and Casablanca since Fall, though I prefer Casablanca to Khamrah, and I love Barrakat Ambre Eve. I have used an entire bottle of Al Rehab French Coffee, but their Choco Musk is less appealing to me. A success so far is Lattafa Liam, very unusual, not like anything I've ever owned. Though, as you know, I'm on limited budget, I'm going to keep my name out of this one, let someone else have a better chance to get this very generous box of fragrances. Thank you, Chris, you're a real peach, appreciate you! ❤ ~Cynthia
Please suggest a very sexy, "best of middle eastern perfumes" scent that I could wear on a night out on a date. I don't like florals and I throw up at a name Marc Jacob's. Please it should be very complex and dark perfume- not cute but sophisticated and mysterious, but also not so niche that nobody else gets it...I still want a compliment getter
Hello Chris! I have been enjoying your videos and content for over a year now! I have been trying to dip into middle eastern fragrances as I love fragrances and find them more budget friendly for me. I am supporting three kids with one in college and another about to start in the fall with a lot of medical bills. Thank you for your fantastic and informative videos. If you would please enter me into the contest I would be very grateful. Thank you!😀💗💗💗
Hey Chris:) I have several ME fragrances i declutter, i never resell them and around me, everyone alreday got so much, thry dont wanna get more, if you wouod like to have (of course for free!;), Casablanca (besides a view sprays, they are all full and a view months macerated), Lattafa Delilah, Al Haramain Amber Oud Ruby Edition, Lattafa Fakhar, 2 other Lattafa's i dont have the boxes anymore and there's no name written on it, forgot them, but if you wanna have them, I'll send them your way?
@@ThePerfumeNest naaah, you are so sweet🤌😘 Oh ok, bcs of the weight it gets so expensive, but if you would be exited or want them, I would love to ship them... Have a beautiful weekend, katharina🫶🧚♀️💫
