🖤First of all, I think you look stunning in pink! Just beautiful! Also beautiful and stunning is that HOS presentation! Lawdy lawdy! I don’t think I have ever seen prettier packaging. The fragrance that intrigued me the most is the La Vie Este Belle Oui. Want! I actually have, and love the OG and can’t believe everyone doesn’t love it. I also love long videos, especially yours, and especially with my morning coffee, so thank you for the treat! Happy Valentines Day, Veronica!❤
Thank you so much for your kind comments! 💖🥰💖🥰 Yes, the packaging and products for the HoS gift are FANTASTIC! Hope you get to try La Vie Est Belle Oui. I love it!
Boo-Ed up might be my favorite new expression. I’ve been married for ever lol 38 years. So we’re low key at this point. Usually a special dinner at home. I bought my daughter the HOS lipstick case for her 30th birthday. The black enamel one. I’m not sure she uses it a lot but it looks pretty on her vanity (she’s got a toddler, is in grad school, and works as a stage manager in theaters so not a lot of time for fancy places)🖤
🖤🖤🖤 I love "boo-ed" up as an expression! 😂 Awww how lovely of you to purchase a lipstick case for your daughter. I'm so impressed with what I received! Just stunning! The pictures do it no justice.
No it wasn’t me that said Velvet smells like a velvet curtain 😂 but I said it smells like a more feminine version of Jazz Club, which I’m sure there would be some velvet curtains in the jazz club 😂
I don’t have a significant other or Valentine’s Day ritual. I do occasionally buy myself some beautiful spring flowers to arrange in a vase to tide me over until Spring when I can get out for some dirt therapy and vitamin D. lol. Loved the video! You once again outdid yourself in descriptions and chuckles. Thank you
Another great video. So glad to see you talk about Narciso Rouge. Although it's been discontinued, it's so beautiful and nobody talks about it anymore. 🖤
"I ran, I didn't get my shoes or nothin' Jesus" 🤣🤣🤣 "And then I caught bronchitis. Ain't nobody got time for that." You cracked me up with this Sweety Brown reference. I hadn't thought of that in years. You are hilarious and look beautiful. Thanks for another awesome video.i love your hidden gems ones. I now have several successful blind buy purchases thanks to these types of videos from you.
I used your link to buy at Jomashop last weekend! I ended up getting Tom Ford Soleil Blanc. It should be coming today. So excited! Now I need to find Kilian Princess on sale somewhere. Thanks so much!
You nailed your makeup! You look romantic 😍 Love all the recommendations and the HOS box! I Here we go out for dinner, flowers and chocolate, even after 10yrs of marriage ❤
Oh love this makeup look on you Veronica - glamorous A++ Hubby and I are celebrating with dinner out on the 13th; it’s not really a holiday we put much emphasis on. Ha Ha I have a 10am tee time with my gals on actual Valentine’s Day🏌️♀️⛳️
V-Day is my wedding anniversary (1993). I'm going to "let my Jersey out" and say that Erotika Minimale will enhance that mob wife/ Housewives of NJ type vibe. Let that cougar roar!
Happy Valentine’s Day Veronica. We don’t really celebrate after all of these years. We celebrate anytime the mood hits us and now we treat ourselves. ❤❤❤❤
I just paused this video to tell you - I want to see what's in that box! I like the element of surprise! Always appreciate your videos and giving us one for Valentines Day is awesome.
V, you look so lovely💕and the scents you’re presenting are getting me thinking about what I’m gonna wear!😍👌 …I’m so sentimental (and my hubby knows it) & there’ll always be a young girl’s heart inside of me that beats a little faster for Valentine’s Day fun!❤😘
I could sit down all day long listening to your voice and your reviews on perfume and not be disappointed. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this selection of perfume. I hope you enjoy your passion de lamour because it’s so beautiful and very long lasting. ❤❤❤
Lalique Soliel is one of my absolute FAVORITE fragrances. Its also the only Lalique fragrance I've ever tried. I'd love to try more!! What's your favorite of the house?? 😘❤🤟🏻
I love your description for Narciso Rouge! ❤ I loved Tocca Florence around 2014 ☺when I was big on Tuberose. I rotated between Florence, MK White and Fendi Furiosa, All man killer perfumes 😳! My Valentine's Day picks from my personal collection are Chloe Love Story, signature Chloe Edp, Carner Barcelona Besos, Miss Dior Parfum (2024) new to my collection and feels very romantic🥰, Parfums de Marly Oriana, Puredistance White No 06, Kayali Sweet Diamond Pink Pepper 25, VS Bare Rose, Simone Andreoli Pacific Park, YSL Lavalliere, Born in Roma Intese, and Delinaaaa 🥰💋
We don’t do big on Valentines Day. We do dinner either a night out somewhere nice or a special dinner that’s a little extra! We don’t do gifts we just make sure we make time to focus on each other. It’s worked for 15+ yrs. We just bought side of grass fed beef so we save the filet’s and we’ll add shrimp or lobster. I’ll make him a great dessert but I don’t do the sweets being a Type 1. He usually does a gift card to nursery and I’ll buy a special plant or tree for our yard or enclosed sunroom! Running joke with us about spending the money on a dozen roses just buy a rose bush and plant it!😂 We love this! I love Narciso Rouge but the last few months my special perfume has been K-Bridge Club from Xerjoff and we both love it on me! I did get Shunkoin and Dama Bianca with the sale! I’ll always love DB!! You look gorgeous!! I love the pink!!💖💖 Enjoy those lil luxuries you deserve them!! I love them!!😍 🖤 🖤🖤
Thank youuuuu Jackie! 💖 I love the food and plant-a-bush traditions - PERFECT! I bet your sunroom is simply FABULOUS! Glad you picked up some fragrance beauties. Yes, girl! Enjoy the luxuries that bring you joy. Those HoS products are AMAZING! 🥰🥰🥰
Valentine´s Day is a normal day for us.. but it was such a big deal when we were younger 🤣 Nowadays, if someone has something special planned, then it´s a surprise or a bonus for the day ! 💕
Pink lipstick and sweater💝 we go out on or about Valentine's Day. We also exchange something. He usually gets me gift cards, and I usually give him fragrance. Go figure 😅💘
Valentines is flowers and chocolate and I cook at home. I try to avoid the crowded restaurants on holidays. I love to go out on a different day to celebrate.
Pink suits you so well, Veronica. You are truly a beautiful woman inside and out. Silken Tent by Alkemia perfumes is probably my favorite romantic Valentine's Day scent. I also like Velvet Gardenia by Tom Ford, which was sadly discontinued years ago. I hope one day TF decides to relaunch it. Other smells that evoke a Romantic vibe for me are Burnt Roses by BTSO, Caswell Massey Elixir of Love, Guerlain Apres l'Ondee, YSL Mon Paris, Narciso Rodriguez All Of Me, Lancome Poeme, TBS White Musk Smoky Rose, Solstice Scent Rose Mallow Cream, Roja Elixir Pour Femme Parfum, DKNY Red Delicious Charmingly Delicious, & Rosa Galore by Attar Collection. Erotika Minimale peeks my interest; it sounds similar to the old La Perla La Perla perfume in the early 90's which I once wore and loved... Very... well... erotic. 🤫Ha! Tocca Stella used to be one of my favorite fragrances. For whatever reason it gravitated so many compliments from men and women.
🖤And yes I know the reference! We still laugh at it today, especially when we're craving a cold pop😂Absolutely love the lipstick & thanks for the recommendations.
Chanel charges $8,0000 per handbag and they're not even gold plated anymore. 👀 Vintage items had gorgeous, refillable packaging. I can appreciate HOS bringing that back. 🖤
@VeronicaSays Hopefully I will come across my 1990s coffret bottles soon! I've been 70% packed and ready to move since I started watching this channel and I am relieved it's finally happening.
Musk Blanc Femme by Robert Piguet is never spoken about and you can only purchase it at the fragrance vault, but it is daydreamingly gorgeous. I think I will wear it this Valentine's Day. It's got hints of musk, peach, jasmine and some other floral notes. Great choice in makeup 😘😘🤗
❤❤❤🖤. Me and the hubs go for sushi most valentines. I always wear his favorite donna born in Roma, so I can slip in when are we going back to Italy? 😂 That HOS presentation! My anniversary is next month🧐😂
Veronica!!!❤🤗😙 What a lovely lineup! The only one of these perfumes that I have is La Vie est Belle Oui, and a travel spray at that....😂 I'm married to the most wonderful man.......who never, EVER notices my fragrances..😂🤣 So.....I'll make a romantic dinner for us, and wear fragrance for me! 😊Not noticing fragrance is such a trivial thing in the grand scheme of life. 50 years later, he's still the love of my life.... The HOS components are exquisite! I don't know how you managed to keep from drooling on them! 😂 Beautiful collection....you deserve to own them and enjoy them for years to come! My Lira is arriving today! I'm so excited! By the way....I ordered Still with the cursive writing on the bottle....and they sent me the one with printing! 😨 I remember that you said that there wasn't too big a difference.... but I was still annoyed!😑 Even the version I received was everything you said it was! ❤❤
Oh I'm so thrilled to hear that Still worked out for you! Wonderful! 💖🥰 Awww treasure your husband. 50 years in today's world of fast marriage and divorce is something to treasure. Hope you love Lira. And YES, House of Sillage NAILED it with that gorgeous package and goodies. 🎊🌟🥳💖🥰
You nailed it with this lineup! Salvatore Ferragamo pour Femme was my wedding day fragrance so it holds strong romantic associations. 👰♀ Last year I wore Lilac Love for Valentine's Day. Here are other recommendations from my collection- Fort & Manle Charlatan, Vivienne Westwood Budoir, Sofia Vergara Love, Thierry Mugler Alien, Mizensir For Your Love, Lush 1000 Kisses, Lush Lust, JPG Classique Eau de Parfum, Dior Addict Eau Delice, Dior Addict, D&G The Only One, Fiorucci Love You, Tom Ford Black Orchid, and Givenchy L'interdit Rouge. Some others that don't exist in my collection but that I feel would fit Valentine's Day date night: Frederic Malle Carnal Flower, Frederic Malle Musc Ravageur, Ex Idolo Love and Crime, Miss Dior, Strangelove NYC Fall Into Stars, Rouge de Revlon, and TT Delox.
I ended up wearing my favorite, Hypnotic Poison EDT ❤ My bottle is a vintage batch, 2004 🥰. These are some other festive Valentines fragrances I own: Dior Addict, Montale Roses Musk, JPG Classique EDT, Bath and Body Works Dark Kiss, Accident a la Vanille Madeleine de Proust Jousset, Victoria's Secret Very Sexy❤❤❤, Prada Candy Night, YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Classique Essence de Parfum, Lush S-x Bomb (self explanatory), and Hilde Soliani Fraaagola Saalaaata.❤ Oh, and I love Tocca Florence too.
🖤 My husband and I never celebrate Valentine’s Day. He’ll be bowling with his friends and Oll have the house to myself….so I guess that’s his gift to me! 😂😂
🖤 I really love the structure of this- day into evening and beyond. Very clever! Not married now but was for 26 years working and raising kids. V day seemed like a lot of pressure so in the busy years we went together to the Barnes and Noble, browsed and treated ourselves each to a book or music cd and that was our vday present. Everyone got what they wanted and we didn’t need reservations. But kids did not come 😊. PS. I have a few of the Tocca fragrances, but they may be my worst performers. Too bad.
Where did all my novella-length comments go??? Ugh. Anyway, at the risk of repeating myself, you look stuh-NING! Those lips and eyes!!! That HOS package, tho! I'm with you: if I want something and it's within my means to get it without going into debt or really causing financial angst, then Imma treat myself. I'm wearing Milk this evening (ew. that sounds AWFUL!), and really enjoying it. Commodity really knows what they're doing. (I sing Black Velvet all the time for karaoke. Duet when you're here? I just got a new system for Christmas!) 🖤 If we're going to go out, Ryan and I go out on the 15th (anniversary of our meeting 16 ((yikes!)) years ago). But more often than not we cook dinner together and drink wine and watch hockey. So...just like every night. And I love that! Hope you and Darin have a great time tomorrow night!
Did your comments disappear???? What happened? Thank you so much! The HoS package is just BEYOND! I'm jealous that you have a karaoke machine. 🎤 Have fun tomorrow night with Ryan! 💖💖💖
3 Treat yourself. You couldn't of said it better. I always tell my husband as long as the bills are paid, I contributed to the savings I deserve to have what brings me joy.
I'm telling you! I was just chuckling at how easily I get obsessed with things. It's kind of fun though and I'm learning to embrace and ride the obsessions. 🥰🥰🥰
Wow wow. I love these and I'm glad you didn't steer into the direction of stereotypical scents that are heavy, cloying and might not be everyone's flavor! In the category of fun and flirty, I may wear Annick Goutal Petite Cherie, Signorina from Salvatore Ferragamo, or Peony Blush Suede from Jo Malone !!💞💗 If I want to take it a step up, I might wear Bottega Veneta, Gallagher Wicked Good, Viva la Juicy Gold Couture, or Tuberose Vanille by Panah London!!💞💗 Take care xo
House of Sillage ia ao lux I love it. They have a wonder woman lipstick case to die for! I'm glad they treated you. I don't buy you an introvert. There's no way!! You're so much fun! ❤
My birthday is the 18th so I've always celebrated the whole month. I've always bought myself fragrance for my birthday month. I'm single post menopausal so I just love smelling pretty for me. Love your videos and descriptions
Beautiful look on you with the makeup/hair/outfit! I can’t fathom even paying half off at $400-wow. I guess my ship hasn’t come in and remains adrift at sea. 😂 Not complaining, I’m blessed more than I deserve. Not judging, everyone can enjoy scent however they see fit❤️
I love that you mentioned Very Sexy For Her ! ❤️❤️❤️ Victoria’s Secret was a great store in the 90s-early 10s for perfumes. I loved the original Secret Garden collection, and wish the store would go back to their roots with some of those scents :).
🖤 you look fantastic in pink!!! Glad you mentioned Tuberoza…..it’s definitely not what I expected but have come to truly enjoy it! HOS has the girls together with that packaging for sure!
I'm sorry you're turning 50 next year? Like how, I mean you look at least a decade younger! Major JLo vibes. Keep rocking them fragrances and sharing your experiences dear. Narciso Rouge was a love at first sniff for me, it has happenned to me twice, first time with Dior Pure Poison.
My dad was always my valentine, whether I was single, coupled up, married then widowed. He passed away last May so this will be my first Valentine Day without him. My partner will likely go out of his way to help me get through the day. Thank you for all you do
🖤 Always!! The Stamina 😘❤️ It's always a pleasure to catch up with you gorgeous Veronica!!! 💗🌹 I Love how you matched your gorgeous Gucci lipstick 💄 with your beautiful nails 💅 You are the Best!! Much Love, Fiona 🫂❤️🌹👋
Thanks for opening that pretty HOS packaging for us. I am celebrate Valentine's Day with my children cooking at home. By the way! You look gorgeous in Pink.
I feel the same about Narcisco Rouge. It might be the only true powdery fragrance I own and I sometimes think about decluttering it, but there is just something about it that makes me keep it. I think Tuberoza might be the first Nishane fragrance I try. Love, love tuberose. Now going to go watch the New Notes video.....Exotica Minimale sounds intriguing
I've thought about decluttering Rouge also but I sniff it an get sucked back in. 😄 Let me know if you try Tuberoza or New Notes. Would love to hear your thoughts.💖
My Valentine's gift to myself for the past couple of years has been perfume. I could use a new daytime pretty scent, and Lalique Reve D'Infini sounds good. 🖤
Oh that lip is gorgeous on you!! We are getting a winter storm up here. Probably will have a cozy chill indoor evening. I think Nudiflorum by Nasomatto will be my scent, it's very carnal smelling to me.
I can’t find the black heart lol but I’ve watched until the end. I love romantic, girly fragrances. I’m doing a low buy and shipping my stash, but I’m getting the Lalique. Sounds right up my alley and the price is right 😊
Watching you from a parking lot, waiting for the grocery store to open😱😱. We used to go out as 5 couples for Valentine dinner but we are so busy these day we hardly see each other😍😍. Hubby and I go out for a lovely dinner and prefer to do it on a weekend😍😍. I haven’t tried any of of these except for Scarlett Poppy but they sound lovely 🤔🤔. Oh yes to spoiling myself if I can afford it🤩🤩. Stay gorgeous 🖤🖤
🖤🖤 I love Velvet expressive. I also really like Gold in the white bottle too. They smell so good. I haven't tried any Lalique yet, but I'll have to check them out too!
🖤 Here til the end! 😁 Btw, your French pronounciation was excellent. And Black Velvet was sang by Alanah Myles. (Music trivia is fun!) You mentioned a few interesting ones... Rêves d'infini sound good. There definitely are some good fragrances to discover with Lalique. And you can get them at such a good price online. I'm wearing my Valentines Day gift from me to me right now, the new Black Opium. ❤
Hi Veronica! Thanks for another awesome video. I appreciate the lesser known gems you have. Serge Lutens Rahat Loukoum is delicious - it reminds me of those old-school Valentine's heart candies kids used to hand out in class. In addition it has that plato smell like in Scarlet Poppy. My gripe with it, and most Serge Lutens fragrances, is the poor longevity for such a high price point. I picked up an old Victoria Secret perfume called "Romantic Bouquet" on ebay and it's heavenly, but I'm clueless on the note list. I think it's well-suited for this holiday. 💖
My youngest was born on Valentines day 7 years ago and hubby points to her every Vday since and says 'SURPRISE'!! 🎉😁🙌 Cheeky bugger 🙄 I'm gonna insist on a fragrance this year, or else!! 🤬😅Xx
Hahaha that black lady who was interviewed after that fire! The way I laughed when you said that! I want to dip my feet into more LVEB flankers. I bought the body spray of very sexy because of you and finished it! I want to get the proper perfume, but I don't want to pay the Canadian price😂❤❤❤🖤
Oh wonderful! Glad you loved the body spray! 💖🥰 I wonder if your Shopper's Drug Mart might have the perfume? The woman in the fire interview had me laughing for an entire year after I watched that clip. She's a gem!
Hola Vero! Tiene razón… quien quiere estar viendo gente abriendo cajas!! Pero esta me gusto. Vero, esas pestañas están muy largas pero igual te quedan ok. Ese lipstick está divino!! Me lo compro.
