I’m in total agreement with you about wanting to smell the fragrance on myself. I find perfumes that don’t project enough, where even I can’t smell it, is a waste of money. Saying that, I did blind buy Oriana too and I absolutely love the smell. I just have to keep spraying it on myself every couple of hours. Hence, the waste of money. I have a ton of designer and niche fragrances, but I find that Montale’s fragrances are the only ones I can smell on myself all day.
I agree with your like on this one. I love the fragrance but am disappointed with the projection. I do however love it layered on Cassili which I think you have as well? Like peaches and cream. Thank you for sharing and enjoy it! ♥️
I was waiting on your review of this because I was so tempted!! I think this may be a pass for me because I need that projection! I went out with my girls wearing Delina and they could not stop smelling me and asking what I wearing!! For $300+ I need that every single time lol💗💗
Just bought a sample for $6 from Lucky Scents - reviews haven't been the best and I've learned my lesson 🤦🏾♀️ the hard way ...not dropping $300 for a skin scent
@@vivian318 Try a sample first (like Scent Split), that is what made me go crazy! I'd say 45 mins-1 hour but I moisturize, spray crazy, and in my shirt - I think the body heat pushes it up so I smell it. It really is so pretty 🌸💜
Brought this perfume and was so excited.. tried it out and returned it to Saks ASAP.. two days later. For 345.00 no way that generic smelling perfume filled with orange blossom was all I smelled..I have cheaper perfumes that project last all day and night..this smelled like a perfume I brought from ROSS .. NO THANK YOU ORIANA😩
I literally just sat down and said… “let me catch up on Ayeshas videos” Then this popped up 🤦🏾♀️ If you make me buy this ……🙄🙄🙄😂…… ok imma watch this video😂 Ok… the projection situation is annoying😩 I mean, can I smell myself at least🤷🏽♀️? Im going to order a sample and see what happens. Thanks for the video!
Dua fragrance!! sell dupe and it’s call hey sweetie. It’s better than the original and it last longer. Dua is a Niche fragrant house is based out of Los Angeles, they make original fragrance and also dupes. Sometime the dupes are better than the original fragrance and the projection last longer. Give them a try😍❤️
I love Oriana and Safanad fm PDM. I initially loved La Rose but this one is so soothing and lasts me a good 8hrs on my skin without layering... I feel like I'm floating on clouds when I smell this scent, sooo lovely!
Great review hun!! Can’t wait to get my nose on this one. I feel like the marshmallow is going to turn me off, but I want to try it anyway because the bottle is just so cute lol. I think this is a like for you 💕.
Great video! I am a projection and longevity snob!! I need a trail. I need a big silage. Fragrances that don’t-usually stay at the store 😂😂😂 but if one sneaks home-I’ll wear it to bed…tfs!
I totally agree with you, I love the scent but the projection it’s not there I love too have a scent bubble as well. I’ll try layering it hopefully that works… Great Video!!!
I totally agree on the lack of projection of this fragrance and was really disappointed. I would not recommend the purchase and the marshmallow is not as prominent as I expected.
I am waiting for a 10 ml decant of Oriana to arrive in the mail. I sprayed this twice on my wrist and the dry down is wonderful. But as you said I couldn’t smell it on myself I had to sniff my wrist to notice it. I hope we figure out how to make Oriana more of a banger. Thanks for this review!
I smelled this at Nordstrom, and my initial reaction was that it smells like RAZZLES! (The old school powdery candy that turns to gum). I didn't try it on my skin, though. Always love your reviews! ❤
Thank you for sharing your review I got this fragrance as a early birthday gift and I love it. I wish they would have created a body cream so it can last. Or we have to wait for @Ai the great, to do a layering video 🤣. So we can see what she's using
HMMMM...I MAY AT SOME POINT HV 2 WORK UP TO ORIANA...I KNOW THE D&G PERFORMS GREAT ON ME!.... I CAN JUST IMAGINE HOW THEY WOULD BOTH B TOGETHER!.......WONDERFUL VID, AS ALWAYS!..:)
Great video. I knew that l had a fragrance that reminded me of Oriana, but l couldn't put my finger on it. Prada Pour Femme is a fragrance that l enjoy. Pour Femme seems to last and project better on my skin but Oriana is smoother to me.
That’s awesome that Nordstrom is starting to carry PDM two years ago they didn’t have it, not an international Plaza anyways. I have to agree with you the projection and performance of this virus is very poor, so disappointing because I wanted to get it but I can’t pull the trigger on such an expensive fragrance that has no performance, too bad because it smells so beautiful 😞😩
I had this fragrance for 2 weeks now, and I do like it, I'm not in love with it tho, to me it smells like Bubble gum, but the more I smell it the more I like it 😊 ..I got a 25% off when I purchased it
Adding that I have had a similar experience. I'm typically a light sprayer and don't need to reapply, but I found myself overspraying and being a little disappointed with projection. I have similar projection needs - I also just want to be able to catch whiffs easily.
I promised myself that I would no longer invest in fragrances with poor projection. I feel like bc I have so many like that it seems like I spray perfume all day every day lol. So this might be a pass for me....but it sure is tempting.
Ooh I’m so glad this worked out. I love it on paper, but not on me. I don’t get any of the fruity notes, it’s just dense whipped cream, marshmallow and lots of musk. I’m going to try my sample again when it’s cooler.
@@simplykura 😂😂 seriously, you are the third person to tell me this recently, including my hubby! I’m going to upgrade my phone and start filming before I invest in a camera.
I did this too☹️ . Not a fan. Big blind buy mistake. It’s overrated. This marshmallow/ crowd pleasing/whipped cream is more marketing than reality. It’s close to a D&G pour femme which is majorly discounted
I gave in as well but only because Saks had a sale. This is the first Parfums de Marly to disappointed me. The fragrance smells too similar to Dolce and Gabbana Pour Femme. Even the bottle was a disappointment in person, on camera the bottle looks way more vibrant. It's a meh for me...
