I love rose. Almost any iteration of rose. People my age never want to be open-minded. They often automatically discount rose and white florals, without giving them a chance!
I have always disliked most rose forward scents... One of the many reasons I love how personal perfume collecting can be❤️ our noses associates things emotionally and we've all had different emotional experiences
@@izzybitsyspider03 I will admit that I think rose can smell a little musty, or old, to me. I do tend to associate it with being old fashioned. That being said, I loved the way my grandmother smelled and she wore very rose forward scents. I just don't usually like it on my own skin. Every perfumer does rose differently so there are exceptions to my disregard for it. Happy scenting! 💕
I 100000% agree with everything you said about Gris Charnel... I AM OBSESSED! And with that you said about Delina. Have you tried Atomic Rose? Jus de Rose calls it Delinas sexy older sister, and she's right!
I just wanted to say how much I love your content!!!❤ it's so relatable and informative. I appreciate the videos you put out and always look forward to watching them!!! You're amazing!!!
I completely agree about Amber Haze. I was in the market and a woman walked passed me and she had this on; I later found out. So I walked up to her and said: “ I must know that scent you have on please!” And she showed it to me on Sephora’s website. I thanked her and gave her a compliment and bought it as I finished my shopping.
Loved this video! Also your makeup is 🔥 Gris Charnel sounds absolutely perfect since I prefer small scent bubbles. Would love to see a video in the future that goes over perfumes that don’t project as much
Oud for Greatness is SO polarising (and so. freaking. good) - I was with my mum the first time I tested it and we had completely opposite reactions. I was instantly obsessed, eyes rolling in the back of my head, oh-my-fucking-god I have to have this, OBSESSED, and my Mum was totally repulsed. Not just "nah it's not my thing", but a full-on GET IT AWAY FROM ME RN type response 😂 gonna have to be careful when and where I wear that one when I eventually find a good enough deal on it!
Love your content! Plus your personality is fire 🔥! That hair color suits you! I’m a new subbie and I’ve been watching several of your videos! Great 👍 job! ❤
Seeing you post makes me so excited ❤ love this video Video suggestion that I'd looove see you do : 'ice cream' fragrances. I love the ice cream note in pistachio Gelato by kayali and I'm hoping to find another fragrance with that sugary coldness 😊❤
Black licorice!! 🤯 You nailed Erba Pura too. Massive overdose of whatever woody amber molecule they used. Ruined it for me. Loving your layering suggestions Olivia! 🖤🤍
I have to disagree on the BR540. I have some dupes and tried many others and I also own Baccarat Rouge itself and none of the dupes quite catches the sophistication of it and that magic that the original has. And I am not some perfume snob, I love designer fragrances and cheapies as well, and I mostly own those. But Baccarat Rouge is simply unique, no matter how much they try and copy it.
@@joniwestbrook7962 This is also my suspicion, but I've never even tried the Extrait version, so I wouldn't know for real but based on the overall description of the scent, I also think the dupes most probably fit better with the Extrait version. To me, no one has mastered the duping of the original fragrance yet. I don't really think no one ever will.
@@andmoreagain7 I do own the extrait and everything they claim matches the extrait some more alcohol than others and some just so overpowering. I'm not sure what that one ingredient is but it is almost to much. If they could get a handle on it then def a dupe for the extrait. Now I purposely purchased a fake of each to see how China was trying to make it pass nope they can't even make it similar. I feel sorry for the people being fooled by the knockoff pretending to sell the real deal for 95 dollars
Italica - there’s nothing like it out there. Man, it tickles my memory hole big time, lol. Ahhhh, I LOVE roses vanille, it’s so beautiful & beast mode! I think I wanna try the orientica version of gentle fluidity gold bc that MFK price tag is🤯! I’m loving these videos, love hearing ur true thoughts on all these popular frags! Keep ‘em coming!
It is crazyyyy how we share the sameee taste in perfumes !!! 😮you said everything I needed to hear about every single perfume in my mind ❤ I adore Delina Exclusive but I didn’t want to spend that much money on it but I decide to order it finally but but but when i was in my way to order it I heard about Armaf Imperial so I ordered and got it two days ago and let me tell you I was like a kid that got the best candy in the world because how perfect and so similar to DE it’s literally her twin identical sister, you need to try it, also now I can decide about Italica and orintca amber rouge, I will order them today because of you, hopefully I will love them like you, thank you so much for an awesome job ❤️
I blind bought Orientica Amber Rouge a while ago. I personally think it's better than BR540 🤷🏻♀️ It has 0 medicinal notes and I never become anosmic to it.
That hair color looks beautiful on you! I just got Italica today! And I was like oh no! She’s going to tell me there’s a dupe but I’m glad nothing compares!
I looove that hair color on you, it's mesmerizing. :) I often wonder if niche perfume in a sense stop being really niche when they become popular and Erba Pura is the one that prompted those thoughts.
😍👏Happy Saturday from Seattle,my favorite "fragrance fairy godmother"!!....ONCE AGAIN, a FANTASTIC video of so many of the MOST POPULAR niche fragrances!...I will never wear Lira again without trying to sniff out that "hint of licorice"!.😉....LOOKING FORWARD to NEXT Saturday's content....by all means,let's hear about all your LATEST & GREATEST new "goods"!!!!💜
Hey,Olivia! I wonder what you think about welton's secret amber? It's rose vanilla scent and there are basically no reviews about it, or the brand, in fact...
hi Olivia. I think your makeup looks on point in this video. what is the eyeshadow and the lipstick? I really enjoy your quick reviews of many fragrances. This really helps me focus in on which scents to try next or avoid.
In one of your other videos you said you really like Replica by the fireplace, have you tried Emir camp fire? I think it is an exact dupe but lasts much longer on me and the 100ml bottle on Amazon was under 50 dollars.
For me, BR540 smelled gorgeous, and I WAS going to save up to purchase it UNTILL I noticed that everyone on the train wore it. Now when I smell it, I immediately think about train platforms, and that really does suck 😞
I got a decant of Delina and I like the smell of it but I hate it on me. It just got louder and rosier as the day wore on and as soon as I got home I changed clothes so I didn't have smell it anymore. Too bad because I was super excited to try it.
Small Town Girl 🙋🏻♀️ OG Delina is a Masterpiece in my opinion it’s beautiful! It’s a sparkling fragrance that brings me joy ever time I wear or smell it. The Exclusif unfortunately did not work for me its way too powdery on me reminds me of “Baby Powder” so it’s a no from me 😬
I absolutely adore your content and oh my goodness, your makeup looks incredible! I'm so curious, do you mind sharing the deets of the products you used?
I’m the same about Fig! Love fig! Loved even BBW Brown Sugar and Fig which was discontinued. And I was also looking for bigger projection for Gris Charnel. So I got the extrait. And with that I got cat piss with the fig. 😢
Now I thought that I wouldn't be able to find a spot on dupe for Italica either - but I did!! GENRE PARFUMS makes the BEST dupe for Italica. Seriously y'all
It's funny how Baccarat smells different to everyone. My friend loves it because it's expensive and floral. I don't smell that at all, to me it's cheap pine - like PineSol! It's not unpleasant to me, but I bought a dupe and use it as a bathroom spray where my cat litter box lives!
Love your videos and your onest opinions! I tried also mancena Aoud Café, for my coffee lover out there. It is still preisy but love it. Need to find a cheaper version of a coffee perfume
I have never smelled the original itálica but I have the Julianna’s perfume version and absolutely love it. I also ordered the God of fire dupe and love it!!!
Would you be so kind as to make lotion recommendations for scent lovers?? I’m having a hard time finding nice smelling lotions and idek where to start. I’ll check out the baccarat rouge one you recommended
Do you list your eyeshadow and lipstick colours because I am always wanting to know what you’re wearing do you have like a beauty space that’s lipstick, blush, eyeshadow, highlight related?
The only full bottle I have of those featured is Initio Oud for Greatness (I'm a dude). Its a saffron near-bomb. And oud of course. The leather-like accord is that saffron. I associate saffron with a monarch's closet. The wood, the clothes. Elegant. Oud for Greatness is very synthetic though. I have a decant of Mango Skin. Just OK. I normally like mango, like in the Hermès Un Jardin series. My holy grail fruity scent is Byredo Pulp. And second is the just-discovered Porthole by Loumari. I think the Casamorati is just a line within the Xerjoff brand, isn't it? I have Fiero from that line.
I have never been able to smell Any Sweet or sugary notes in BR540.... I have heard other people say it has a burnt sugar note and I would like THAT because that WOULD totally be my vibe because I love sweet dessert type gourmands but I swear all get is IN THE STARS through and through and I ABSOLUTELY HATE THAT STUFF!!
Well hello hello ☺️☺️ I’m glad you worked your way around silly IG and the censor of “dupe” or whatever smh. But that being said, there are a few I own that have me about to just sell the OG lol. Also I hate that Lira is ruined for you.
Pas ce soir was a big letdown for me. I was hoping for a realistic tart quince note but that’s not what I got at all. My search for an accurate quince representation continues.
I always wonder why no one talks about the licorice in lira. I’d like to find a lemon without it. I am on the same page on so many of these! Pas ce soir though I do prefer the original. Every time I wear la capitale or gris charnel I am in love with myself 😂😂 I don’t real like like any of the delinas. In fact I dont feel the need to have any of the parfumes de marley. Sorry, I know that’s not popular.
