To me, Lalique Le Parfum is a true masterful olfactive creation: elegant, elevated, nuanced, unique yet wearable. I don't think I've ever walked by that fragrance and not stopped to smell the atomizer. Rare Tiffany goes everywhere with me in the hotter months. A mate smelt it on me and asked if it was from Creed. Girl, Creed wishes. I'm trying to not add anymore vanilla frags for awhile; but I'm going to pick up Tocade...there really is no such thing as too much vanilla anyway. Great vid as usual, Veronica!!!

I will always associate Quatre with you and your channel Veronica! I bought it shortly after you did I believe, on your recommendation. I believe it may have been in a Mother’s Day video. Anyway, even though it was very early in my collecting, it’s the one that I think I’d keep if I could only keep one. That baffles me a bit because though people like it, it’s never been one that people get super excited over. But you’ve always appreciated it, and it’s so special to me! As for a recommendation, especially one that seems to kind of go with your list, I’d say Lolitaland is really good too! Loved the video as usual Veronica! Hope you’re having a great weekend! ❤😊

@petraroos3413 Год назад

Lalique Le perfume smelled lovely from the atomizer but sadly on my skin smelt like plastic bug spray. So I suspect, looking at other reviews, this fragrance is made or broken by ones skin chemistry. Personally my favorite "cheapie" vanilla/tonka based fragrance is Joop le Bain. It is a beautiful Tonka bomb, with hints of cherry. I'm glad you mentioned it!! But my most complimented cheapie has been Shaghaf Oud by Swiss Arabian. You need to like sweet fragrances and the oud is slightly synthetic but it really is beautiful, fun yet grown and romantic. Great for Valentine's day. 🙂

@VeronicaSays Год назад

Hi Petra! Awww sorry Lalique Le Parfum did not work out for you. Joop! Le Bain is so underrated and lovely. Shaghaf Oud is fantastic! I didn't include here as it's a dupe and I was trying to do a video with no dupes, but Shaghaf Oud is a GREAT fragrance! 💖🥰👍

Because I want to try so many new smells, affordable is right up my alley for experiments. Years ago, I loved Tommy Girl by Tommy Hilfiger and Lucky You by Lucky. They're still in the affordable range and are easy reaches/everyday jeans scents. My newest additions, carefully curated and blind buys are Beachscapes by Jennifer Aniston, Anais Anais by Cacharel, Glow by Jennifer Lopez, Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker and Shock for Her by Calvin Klein. I adore all of them. Not one second of regret and make me crave more.

Hi neighbor, firstly I watched the video of you and your husband and laughed so hard. It reminds me of the rapport my husband and I share. We frequently say I’m embarrassed and the other always say I’m embarrassed for you!😂😂 I had to share that. So, I know I’m a niche lover and consider myself a fragrance snob. I’m just concerned it won’t meet my high expectations. In my mind you pay for what you get. I also know that this can be a false narrative. I’m stepping out of my comfort zone and on your recommendation I’ve ordered Rare Tiffany. Fingers crossed I like it. Love the content of your videos and your personality really adds to the enjoyment in watching them. I always learn something. Take care!

Hi Jeanette! 💖🥰 Hope you're enjoying the Superbowl from a warm space with your hubby. I love the humorous rapport!

I've spent a lot on some niche that gave me the opposite of "you get what you pay for," so it really just depends on the fragrance.

@VeronicaSays Год назад

Hi Cee! You know, no one has ever said that Rare Tiffany is duping anything but I have wondered. Perhaps you nailed it! I've never sniffed that X Nihilo, but would be curious to do so.

@ymdroid73 Год назад

Great list, and love that you don't shy away from making lists that aren't entirely niche. Lalique is definitely a love, and even though I joke that the inspiration was pot roast because of the bay leaf it smells nothing like a pot roast. 🙂Pure Nectar is a good one too. Nisha from Spicy Looks raved about it and also said her husband loves it on her, so it might also be a contender for secret man killers. I love Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere as a layering scent. If I pair it with scented body creams or perfume oil, I find the performance is a bit better. Definitely not a beast, but closer to 5 or 6 hours than the 3-4 I think most people get. But honestly the 3-4 hours is fine for me if I'm wearing it as a night time scent where I just want to smell something nice as I fall asleep. I'm a sucker for a good freshie, so I may have to get my nose on Rare Tiffany for summer. In that vein, one of my favorite affordable scents is Martinique by Tommy Bahama. I personally love the opalescent bottle and it smells *extremely* similar to Scent of Peace (purple bottle) from Bond no 9. I have both, and I'm talking smelling them side by side there's barely a difference. Scent of Peace performs better - as it should, but since Martinique is $20-25 I have no problem reapplying.

@VeronicaSays Год назад

Tommy Bahama has some fun scents and the bottle shapes are great too. I get about 4ish hours from Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere on its own, and I'm totally okay with that. Not everything has to be a 12 hour banger, you know? I learned of Pure Nectar from Neesha too, and when she mentioned the part about her husband, I added to cart. 😂😂😂 She was telling the WHOLE TRUTH! 💯👌

@dimsumgirl2860 Год назад

I have smelled all of them on your list, except Tocade, and I absolutely agree with your picks! They are all very lovely and well priced to boot! I also adore the regular Boucheron Quatre as well as Boucheron Nuit. Two I would add to the list that are completely 100% hidden gems and I am shocked no one talks about is Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue Royale (I've found75mL bottles for $20 CAD) and Giorgio Beverly Hills Gold (100mL for about $30). Both are very contemporary boozy, wood (very light oud), with fruity top notes. Raspberry in the EA, plums in the GBH. Love them both.

I love Le Bain and Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere. There is a very hyped niche fragrance called What We Do In Paris is Secret which smells almost EXACTLY like Le Bain, but at about 5 times the price. The Cremo line is very good. I have Vintage Suede and Spice & Black Vanilla. Both hit way above their price level. Another one of my budget faves is Adam Levine for her, which I found as a 2 bottle set (100ml & 30ml) for $10! It’s discontinued, but you can still find it at discounters. Added: Sofia from Sofia Vergara is also a great “cheapie” fruit-chouli.

@VeronicaSays Год назад

Oh! I'll have to try my What We Do in Paris Sample one more time to see if I get the comparison - thanks for that tip! I need to try the other Cremo fragrances. They sound great! And I have Adam Levine and Sofia, although my time with Sofia is coming to an end. She's still gorgeous though. Thanks for sharing your recommendations! 🥰💖

Years ago I was enchanted by a fragrance worn by a lady who worked at the firm I worked for. She drove a Jaguar and her fashion aesthetic was Silent Luxury. She shared the name of the fragrance, and I ran to the perfumery across the street where I was delightedly shocked to find it for $16 for a full size $8 for a purse spray. Months larer I returned to stock up for tracel gifting but it had been pulled from stores and eventually exclusively sold at Barney's. I think its only available in France since the Barneys closed.

If anyone is looking for a dupe for Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Coconut Fizz, two of the Hawaiian Tropic body sprays have the same fresh airy green coconut water note. They are Tropical Haze and Coco Magic and are incredibly affordable at about $15 for a large 250ml bottle. And they have lasting power as good as any edt.

An underestimated niche brand is Fragonard, more specifically “les Jardins Fragonard” line. All are under 50€ and are definitely better than lots of designer options. My favorites are grenade pivoine, Jasmin perle de thé, rose lavande…Mon Lys and Mon Immortelle are also beautiful.

@Carolina-ef3uy Год назад

Let me just say the that I love the fact that you set a price of $50 because honestly I get annoyed when influencers call something affordable and it’s $180-$200. Maybe it’s affordable to them, but not to the majority of people. Btw, Rare Tiffany gets a really bad review from most people on Fragrantica, they say it’s smells like water park and urine. I made me scared to blind buy it.

Hi Carolina! 💖 I agree - $180-$200 is a stretch to be called "affordable." 🤔 Water park and urine? Oh my goodness! 😂 I thankfully don't get either of those smells from Rare Tiffany. 🤷‍♀️
