Oh I love that you included Narciso Poudree! I'm blond, green eyes, pale skin, and I have always been kind of suspiscious of sweet, rich, powdery fragrances, as I thought they would not fit me at all. I was leaning towards fruity florals, freshies. But Poudrée has changed everything. What a gorgeous dry-down...I feel as if I was covered in a soft, creamy, deliscious capuccino in a small, Italian village full of history, smiling people and blossoming flowers. And the lasting power is great indeed. 3 sprays take me through the day.
Crème De Cuir is also my favorite BDK fragrance. It’s lovely. I find that women say it’s too masculine and men say it’s too feminine. It’s just a perfect unisex fragrance. Lol For context: Crème De Cuir is backup bottle worthy. I will purchase a backup after I’ve chipped away at my wish list a bit.
I just got Tiffany intense in the mail today. I love it , fresh and classy. Néroli & Orchidée by L'Occitane en Provence is another powdery one I love and it lasts a long time.
I recently discovered Dusita Le Pavillon d'or. It starts out green and minty very fresh and uplifting. Gets more powdery and dries down to a very comforting powdery woody scent.
It’s funny your description of Crème de Cuir - a new Uggs boots that just came out of the box and you accidentally poured butter on it. 😂 Yes, that will be unfortunate. Thank you for this video, I learned something new. I will try that back of the neck spray. I read somewhere you can spray on the back of your knees too, is that true and does that work, and what does that do. I forgot what I read. 😅
Crème de Cuir is my favourite BDK too! Been loving Sonic Flower l, just ordered a full bottle. I just sold my Junoon Rose but I still love the original Junoon. Powder bomb!
Green Butterfly is one of my favourite purchases this year. Big gamble blind buying it, but thankfully it totally stole my heart. I find it so delicate but also elegant. Beautiful scent
Junoon Rose is a beast. I really adore it. Potent, lovely and feminine. One of my all time favourites and one of the very few i finished one bottle from and got another one.
Tardes is amazing. Btw, recently I did about 5 sprays of it in the morning, and that day I spent the whole evening sitting next to my friend, and he said that he could smell my perfume even on the next day, when I was away of course. So I would say it is a beast for me)
Sonic flower sounds like one of my favorites by ELDO, la fin du Monde (iris, ambrette, carrot seed, gunpowder, and popcorn) very floral and slightly savory; it's so nice. I love your back of the neck suggestion! I usually do one spray on my chest then one on my tummy, but tomorrow I will try your behind the hair trick. Thank you!
Hi Yana. Don't you find that the longevity of fragrance depends on each individual 's body chemistry? Of course if you spray onto fabric, it will stay the same for everyone. The Narciso Poudre sounds amazing. I have the Musc Noir, but the Poudre sounds wonderful. I love the Glossier You, the Sonic Flower sounds fabulous as well. The Tardes sounds right up my alley. D & G The Only One, and Glossier You are for now, my go to powdery scents. Thanks ever so much! 🩷🩷
I love powdery perfumes and I love iris. I thought I would love LVEB Iris Absolu, but it turned into a fruity mess in the drydown on me. None of these are safe blind buys since not everyone can wear powdery perfumes, but the LVEB Iris is definitely not a safe blind buy even for an iris lover!
I'd have to add Aquamarine and Powder to the list. My current squeeze is also powdery and lasts well; Bianco Latte; so good as well to layer under so many fragrances x
I have not tried Andrea Maack's CERAMIC but, because you said it was your fave from that house, I'm wondering if you've tried COVEN? I love it because I love green scents and it is an absolute green bomb. Curious as to what you might think of it. Cheers!
I’m on the hunt for a new signature scent. My all time favourite was the original Coach Love from 2012 but it’s discontinued. Any suggestions on how to find something similar?
Sounds like I'm not the only person with a sneezing neighbour! 😂🤧 He always gets me laughing. How can you manage a sneeze every 6 seconds for like 5 minutes?? After the first minute I'm cracking up. Because I'm a terrible person. 🤣
