I would love to hear about your "gentle beauties" because I am always getting asked about those type of fragrances. Please let me know your thoughts below!
Artimisia by Penhaligons is a lively soft easy fragrance I feel I can wear anywhere ,also Prada d Iris !!
Aromatics in white. By Clinique
Irene! I smelled that at the Cosmetics Company store in December and thought it was so nice, I bought little one ounce sprays for my friends at work. Every one of them LOVED it.
Orchidee Vanille. I wish it was just a lil bit stronger
@@ThePerfumeNest Yes!! it's soft, peacefully. I love it.
Yes to the rice fragrances video!!!!! 🥰 Love Heeley they have amazing and unique fragrances ! Overall Chris, your selection of fragrances is great, very thoughtful and on point my friend 🥰💚💚
You started the list with one of my favorite "quiet" fragrances as I call them too: Mia La Perla. Great list, Chris 💜
You work so effortlessly on your content Chris. I love you so much 💗
Aw. You are my heart. ❤️🥲
Lavandes Trianon is so unique imo. Nothing quite like it - in the same family, but not close. Wood Sage & Sea Salt is so light and appealing - you're right. 💖 But it was hard to hear you because I was busy admiring those insanely perfect curls! 😁🥰😘
What!?? Thank you for always being my cheerleader. 🥰🥲💕
Some great picks Thanks for the shoutout Chris!
Another gentle beauty that i love from Pascal Morobito in the pearl range Pearl precieuse🌸 its gorgeous and soft Top notes are Rhubarb, Pear and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Rose, Tuberose and Water Lily; base notes are Musk and Vanilla youll love it. I also love Rituals cherry blossom 🌸and rice powder (its the only rice one I have) very soft. La Perla is good too. Office safe.
Great video! A very much appreciated topic!
Wonderful! From the feedback…looks like there will be a “Part II”
Excellent video and choices. Thank you!
Thank you!!!
I’m a fairly new subscriber to your channel and love it! I wanted to also say I love the title of this video…Gentle Beauties. I cannot handle all the white florals and fruity florals out there today and I really appreciate all your suggestions and even bought La Mia Perla…can’t wait to get it! I really think there are a lot of people who would appreciate this video. Keep up the great work! 🙂
Aw! Thank you Victoria! 💕🥰
Beautiful in winter white - a perfect choice for the theme of your video.
I think there's totally a place and time for scents that don't pack a punch, as you say. Lovely list! And who doesn't love an affordable scent? Thanks for this! Looking forward to the rice video!
Aw! Thank you for Scent Sister!!!!🥰❤️💋
Hello. I am soo looking forward to the rice video. i am going research and look at some of your awesome recommendations for a soft fragrance.
Hi Ana! You are so sweet! Always watching my videos and leaving comments. I so appreciate you. 🥰and I saw you put your name down for my IG giveaway! Good luck dear! 💕👍🏻
LOVED THIS EPISODE!!!!!
Why thank you!
TX for this! I love gentle perfumes ! 🧡💚
Awesome! I’m due for a new version!
Your hair is always fabulous!
Aw! Thank you so much! I never feel fabulous at these unGodly hours! 😂💕
Hi beautiful lady! Again great video! I discovered Pure Perle because of you! It’s so creamy and delicious! I actually layer it with philosophy fresh cream, another one of your recommendations! It’s just so good! Thanks for the video.
Hi Martha!!! That’s awesome!!! And I am SO going to wear that combo! Fantastic idea!!!!👏🏻💕🥰
🙀 Burglar! 🤣🤣 I have so many perfumes that are fitting for this list, mostly because my skin eats everything! Love Lavandes Trianon and Iris Dragees! I have the body wash, body creme of Wood Sage & Sea Salt, it does help with performance. I need to 🏃♀️ to Target! This was a great video😘
Omg what perfumes work for you? My skin does the same! I’m having such a hard time
Hi gorgeous! The Zara with a rice note sounds good! ❤️
It is! 🥰
Hi Chris! Sandalwood Temple is good for the soul! ❤️ La Mia Perla is lovely but doesn’t last, definitely a great option for when you need something subtle. 😘💕
Yes ! Thanks for stopping by my friend. 🥰
Thierry Mugler Over the Musk is the dainty of demure fragrances. It's un line any musk I've ever smelled. Thank you for sharing your picks!
Oh Zakia! Twist. The. Knife! I have been trying to get my hands on a bottle of Over The Musk forever!! There are zero bottles available here in the states. The only place it is currently sold is the Mugler boutique in Paris. That’s it. And they won’t ship to USA. So I finally gave up and bought Musc des Sables from Les Indemodables. It’s beautiful. 🥰Thsnk you do much for stopping by! 💕
Soft smells 💕. Aqua Donna is one of my favorites. Great video Chris 👍
Oh isn’t that discontinued!??? I tried to buy it last year and had the darndest time!!! I’ll look again! 🙏🏻👏🏻💕hi Sammie!!! I miss talking to you. Hope all is well my friend!!! 💋
@@ThePerfumeNest Hello Beauty! I know, I've been MIA. I'm surprised that I've been able to stick to my no buy 😂. Aqua Donna is really pretty.. It has a LaBelle vibe but replace the pear with almond.
@@Sammiein oh em gee! That sounds amazing!!!!! You have so many beauties …you don’t need anymore. But thanks for stopping by to say “hi” and to chit chat my friend. I use the chapstick and lotion everyday and think of my Sammie! 🥰
La Perla Mia is my favorite bedtime fragrance 🥰 it’s very comforting and beautiful
Yes it is isn’t it??❤️🥰so glad other ppl know this soft beauty.
Love your channel! I liked your suggestion about white tea fragrances, if you’d give more recommendations similar to bvlgari au blanc I’d appreciate that!
Hi Diana! Thank you so much! 😉💕
This is a great list. I’m a therapist/clinical social worker and try to wear the softer, calm fragrances at work. There is a place for fragrance in mental health but I try to select my perfume and other scents in the room wisely.
Also, I can’t wait for your rice video!! It’s such a fun note.
Hi my dear!! I got your lovely card. How incredibly sweet of you. Handwritten notes seem to be a thing of the past so I treasure them when I get them. 💕❤️ oh I hope ppl are excited for rice! 🤣🤣👏🏻
@@ThePerfumeNest I’m happy it made you happy 😊 Sometimes it’s important to keep the past alive 💝
I have a category like this too! Anything that puts me in the mind of 5 star hotel bed linen...lazing around that first morning on holiday wrapped up in that astonishingly plush, sumptuous bedding....the smell of boutiques and the smell of particularly good fabric conditioners, well kept textiles or ironing water and years of strangers fragrances built up in walls of the hallways I'm sure. "Fabric Conditioner" is a dreadful category to verbalise but it really is that sort of thing. A ghost of a gourmand note or a flower or a fruit, who knows when the overall vibe is a very gentle fuzzy musk, soft warm vanillia warmth and well rounded florals or fruits where there's a gentle hum rather than once voice soaring or screeching over the choir to be noticed. I have trouble picking out notes in these sorts of fragrances, aside from the obvious suspects which is cheating in a way, haha. Clean, supportive, gentle beauties, you said it well. My own list is too long but I'm so glad I have found your video describing such fragrances because not many reviewers have their own idiosyncratic self-titled categories in their collection. I TOTALLY get it. I'm so glad you started a channel. My second tier in the category of clean fragrances (aside from hotel bed linen/fabric conditioner, ahaa) is 'shampoo blow dry'. That's the other type of fragrance where I really can't pick notes as they just remind me of freshly shampooed hair. Fragrances like 'Pivoine Suzhou' by Armani Prive, 'Jacinthe et Rose' by E Coudray, 'Hummingbird' by Zoologist and so on. There are many.
PS= Every time I open my suitcase upon returning home from a holiday I stuff a fistful of clothing under my nostrils and inhale because mysteriously they all smell like the foreign apartment or hotel room I stayed in. Ahhhh. JoLoves have a GREAT candle called 'The Beaumont' which smells divine and I highly recommend it to everybody.
What a wonderful comment you left. I’m guessing you are a writer….elegantly loquacious …..I can imagine those smells exactly by the way you describe them. And yes….freshly shampooed hair is great. Especially if someone uses Lush or Aveda…I’m so fond of those spa/ earthy /aroma chemical scents. ❤️
Am waiting for My Elizabeth Arden White Tea in the mail. I was a bit agnosmic to it when I tried it at the mall but I need a new gentle fragrance in my collection and TH-cam convinced me to give it another go. Am intrigued by Charriol's Imperial Saphir. I think you're the only reviewer who talks about Charriol fragrances - need to check the house out! Thanks for this feature, Chris!
I’ve had my eye on that also for ages ! But there is only so much room on the dresser ….😂❤️my friend really enjoys that one…
Hello Chris😍 Great Video🤍 Nice Soft Beautiful Fragrances🤍Have A Great Week💖
I really enjoyed watching your video's 🤩
Thank you!
I remember when you de cluttered sweet pastry in Paris and I wanted it so badly !! I ended up getting a bottle given to me from Chantel Tiffany when I was over in the UK last year !! I adore it 🥰 and I reach for it ofton because it’s so soft and comforting
How sweet of Chantel! She seems like a lovely person. Yes that was so tough but I have like 10 gazillion lemon perfumes….I needed to share the love and let it go. 😂
Ha! This is my favorite category as I really don’t like opulent scents. A few of my favorites to add to the list: Oolong Infini by Atelier Cologne, Fog by Henry Rose, YOU by Glossier, Ambrette 8 by Le Labo, Lazy Sunday Morning & When the Rain Stops by Maison Martin Margiela - all really nice skin scents good for all year round !
Hi my friend Jennifer!!! Well I have you to thank for falling in love with Henry Rose! I’m slowly adding them to my collection. There wasn’t a single one I didn’t like or love. 💕
Oh and YOU by Glossier has been on my “to buy” list but it’s not easy to procure! 😂 it’s been sold out. I need to check again…
I have a few quiet fragrances and unfortunately not the ones in your list🤩😍👌. Emozione is a beautiful fragrance that disappears within 2 hours of application on my skin😩😩. I also use various Sollinotes fragrances when I want something light😍😍. I also like Dirham Wadi but man I have to look for it after 2 hours🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. I exercise at home so I mostly go for fresh, lemony/orangey or tea based fragrances, nothing heavy. Great content as always👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰.
Hi Pinkie! I bought Wadi a few months ago….sprayed on paper and it seemed really strong but didn’t give it a full wear. I need to do that. 🥰
Hi Chris, just recently came across your channel and I've been enjoying your videos. I agree that JM Sea Salt and Sage is wonderful, but I too wish it packed a bigger punch! I find the scent highly addictive and only wished it projected and lasted longer. I also love a few scents from Olfactive Studio, which are incredibly addictive, but again, quite weak. I simply adore Autoportrait, but I have to overspray a lot so that I can detect it. Same with Still Life in Rio and Lumiere Blanche- stunning scents, just a little quiet. Granted I don't think that every perfume should be beast mode, I do think that there are times scents should be a bit tamer and to enjoy just for yourself. Like with Autoportrait, I know no one is going to smell me...but I can and so does my partner, who loves it on me too! Thanks again for your content!
Hi Ryan!!! I’m so glad you came across my channel also! 😉Thank you!!! ❤️ so funny you mention Olfactive Studio…..so many have been on my wish list, but I’ve been hesitant to pull the trigger because they would be blind buys. So looks like you saved me some regretful purchases. Two days after I filmed that video I bought a FB of Wood Sage & Sea Salt. It’s just like you say but perfect if I’m going to be in crowds or at work. I know I won’t offend anyone. Again thanks for finding me and leaving such lovely comments! TTYL. 😉💕
I’d love to see a miller Harris house review of you haven’t already done one - I’ve sampled a couple such as powdered veil and I think they fit this description pretty well. Love to know your impressions. ❤
Thanks for stopping by. I’m not sure I have enough to do an entire house review…..🤔
Can’t wait for the rice with you! Request here can we get a realistic pastry video?!
Oh yes!!!🙏🏻👏🏻Mua!!!!!!
🐱 🦹♀️ I love the cat burglar !!!
🤣🤣
I LOVE la Mia perla! It’s a great frag. Yes a lotion type frag. Xxx
Yay! Hi Rachel! 😉💕
Another great video from you Chris . I just added La Mia Perla to my collection . For your rice note video , have you ever smelled Dojima by Mona di Orio ?
Stay warm !
Hi there ! You are amazing! Can you believe I ordered a sample of that with my last lucky scent order about 3 weeks ago and they forgot to include the samples! So I’m trying again! I hope you never stop visiting and commenting on my vids…..you know about such amazing hidden gems! It’s so fun ! 👏🏻🙏🏻🥰
You’ve made me interested in quiet fragrances, I have to get a couple on this list! I think the only “quiet” perfume I have is No 7 English Laundry & you should definitely try it! I find it to be very comforting & soothing. It’s not too quiet, but you can get more or less projection depending on how you spray & it has moderate longevity.
Oh hi Claire! That sounds lovely! I love those “fresh laundry” fragrances. I’d that what it smells like?
@@ThePerfumeNest It definitely gives me a fresh laundry vibe, but not like fabric softener or detergent, & it has a gourmand quality to it. The top notes are apricot, pear, jasmine, & melon. The middle notes are almond, gardenia, & jasmine. The base notes are whipped cream, vanilla, sandal wood, & musk. It’s very creamy & soft. It has a fresh, fruity vibe, but the whipped cream & almond are the stars of the show. It makes me think of clean white linens that are hanging outside drying with a breeze lightly flowing through, & there’s bowl of honeydew melon sitting nearby. It’s very easy going & inoffensive, but I don’t find it to be basic.
@@magicka8857 oh my goodness that sounds dreamy! 💕
I love a good quiet fragrance! I think there is a time and place for those “beast mode” scents . On a day to day I don’t want to suffocate anyone 😂
It’s not very often though!!! But yes…often times I have to behave with my fragrances. 😉💕
@@ThePerfumeNest 😂😂
😂😂loved the cat burglar reference. Great fragrance recommendations too. I love the sound of the Healey fragrance…shame it’s not available in Australia
Hi there!! Lol. Well if the shoe fits!!!! 😂😂oh that too bad! I purchased my bottle from Nose Paris. They make some real nice ones (Heeley)
Good morning Chris 💗you look stunning 🤩
Francis thank you so much! It was another late night marathon. I’ve got it down to filming two videos twice a month….and releasing once a month. It takes me two hours to apply and remove that heap of makeup….I need to be efficient so often times I do not feel beautiful at all. So those words go straight to my heart. Big hug. 🥰🥰
Ooh La Mia Perla has always piqued my interest when I hear people talk about it! It does sound right up my alley 🥰 And a couple of the ones you mentioned in this video were included in the package with samples you sent me and I am loving! I have been meaning to send you a message with my thoughts on all of them but I have gotten sidetracked by life these days 😅 I will definitely do that soon!
When it comes to Wood Sage & Sea Salt there are no words for how much I love that one .. it is so close to my heart and the very first perfume that ever totally blew me away, there’s just something about it! I think it is the ambrette that just floats around me like a mesmerizing unbelievably gorgeous heavenly cloud ☁️ The first time I ever sampled it I was on the ferry and everyone was hustling around getting food from the cafeteria, etc and I felt like I had a secret that no one else knew and the world almost stopped. Like everyone else was living their hectic fast paced lives and my world became slow motion like a dream. Sound dramatic? I don’t care, fragrance affects me that way 🤷🏻♀️ what can I say. Lol So it was my first ever “expensive” purchase. Love love love it 🤍🤍🤍🤍
I love that story! And I love it (Wood Sage) also! As my caption in the video showed, I bought the 100 ml FB also! 🥰
And I would love to hear your thoughts! It would be great if you posted on IG what you thought of the FB freebie. (Then I could repost). Unless you didn’t card for it and we’ll just keep that to ourselves! 😂❤️❤️❤️😂
@@ThePerfumeNest yay I’m glad you got the 100ml! 🥰 The lotion is lovely too 😉 Yes I’ll message you soon! And maybe I can do an IG story sometime as well ☺️ xo
@@tammyroxanne. that would be awesome! 🥰👏🏻
Wow thank you Chris
Thanks for stopping by Irene! 🥰
@@ThePerfumeNest Absolutely
Off the top of my head I would add milk musk by Molton brown. In a similar vein to LA Perla, and also cerruti image woman which is a gorgeous citrus leather. I wear that to the gym all the time.
Very nice enjoyed watching always stay connected.
Have a good day.💕
Aw!! Thank you so much!!🥰❤️
I adore a soft quiet perfume
It definitely has a time and a place. 💕😉
Lavandes Trianon 😍😍 getting a backup bottle soon.
Lol!! I do the same!!! 😂I’m glad I’m not alone. 😄💕
you have such class lucky to see your channel and talk
Aw! Thank you! 🙏🏻🥰
Ooohhh I’m on the 51 edp Train 😍 I want it, nooo I need it😜❣️
It’s VERY gentle but perfect for you and I and our professions. I got mine at Fragrance X for a good deal….well for Roja! 🥰😂
Hello Chris and thank you for the shout-out!!!! The day when this video went up I was still in Barcelona, the same day I was at the Perfume Museum situated in the back of the Regia perfumery. It was a fabulous discovery because the museum is not advertised in any way. The Lady who helped me pick my fragrance was amazing and she spent one hour showing me all kinds of perfumes. In the end, I purchased Jasmine d'un riad Maroccain by Sandra Iruela (she is the creative nose). Then, she said, "would you like to visit our museum?".....Entering that place I almost fainted, luckily my daughter was with me and I went straight into a frenzy of joy looking at those BEAUTIFUL old bottles and old powerhouses...I have taken some pictures and I keep looking at them ....that museum was sensational!!! I loved your selection in this video, I also do not wear perfume in the gym but if I spray myself at home before going I guess people can still feel it by the time I am in the gym. Never had any complaints though....he he he.... You look lovely Chris, as always, and I totally enjoyed watching !
Oh how exciting! I think I’m finally going to be able to travel to Europe this summer!!!! Tentatively going to Spain, but it’s in the air. I am definitely going to the Perfume Museum if it’s Spain!!! Sounds wonderful!!! 👏🏻❤️

Yass my sista! 🙌💕
@@ThePerfumeNest Well 🤗 10 minuttes in, and I have ordered the Mont Blanc one 😂💕
I like soft perfumes 😍
They definitely have a time and a place. 😉❤️
I really enjoy your scent reviews very much so! Btw I'm quite sure you'd like "Act" by DER DUFT (small German Niche House, nose is Prin Lomros. You may have heared of "Pride"), because you love citrus notes for the warmer seasons, right? Me too. "In here the citruses stay with the cypress the whole way through, they stick around pretty much into the drydown..." That review made me buy this perfume
Hi there!!! I don’t have anything by that brand but I’ve seen it. It’s on my list now!!!💕and yes…I love citrus notes in the warmer weather. 🥰💕
@@ThePerfumeNest Hey there, fantastic! I'm very curious to hear your impressions of it! On my list is now "Pride" from this house...
Thank you for this list, this is my favorite scent category. When talking about the JM scent towards the end, you mention this or another scent when going into a crowd, a Narciso Rodriguez one - which Narciso are you talking about specifically? I apologize if I missed it :) Thank you again!
I wondered about which Narciso, too.
I would guess maybe Pure Musk?
Poudre?
Hi there,
I’m not sure if you’ve ever heard of a company called ‘Jenny Glow’, they do brilliant dupes. I’m from Ireland, and they are everywhere over here. Anyway, I feel the same about Jo Malones perfume performance, and their interpretation of her scents are second to none! I have lime, basil and mandarin and Wood, sage and sea salt and they smell exactly the same with better longevity.. no weird drydowns or anything, plus they are super cheap!!! They also do Tom Ford and Chanel dupes. I’m not sure if you’re into dupes but I felt like mentioning them to you anyway. 😁
Hi Deirdre! I have heard of them. Maybe I saw Irene talk about them over a year ago? I think they are a European brand? 😉
My Gentle Beauties recommendations: Nobile 1942 Muschio Nobile, Guerlain L'Instant Magic, M.Micallef Royal Muska, S.Ferragamo Emozione, L'Artisan Parfumeur Mirabilis... 🥰 I also love Wood Sage and Lavandes Trianon 🤍
Oh Paula! A few I’ve sampled and several I have not! Thank you for those suggestions and I will definitely check them out!!! 👏🏻💕
Great video. I still love kenzo summer (soft yellow clear leaf bottle) and jill sander pure, they are missed. Both discontinued for what i know..
So nice you were able to pick those up. ❤️
Love wood sage and sea salt , I like it after bath before bed , clean and refreshing, The JM Myrrh and Tonka is strong , I first smelled it from a lady in a distant restaurant booth, I had to ask her the scent and bought next week
Hi Mary! Myrrh and Tonka has been on my wishlist for a year! Time for me to move on it. 🥰😉
Great video! I love Zara A Mochi Atelier in Tokyo, too! Have you tried Hermes Un Jardin Apres La Mousson? It's a lovely ginger, cardamom, and watermelon scent that I think you might like. It's aquatic but somehow powdery, too.
Also, as a rice note lover, have you tried L'Artisan La Chant de Camargue? I sampled it recently and really want a full bottle. Thank you!
Hi there!!! Thank you so much for stopping by!! I do have a Fb of Chant de Camargue! It is lovely and you will see it in my rice video! I’ve always wanted to sample that Hermes one! Let me see if my friend has it……🥰
@@ThePerfumeNest excited for the rice video! Would also be interested in a bread/pastry one. I hope you can sample Mousson - I think you'd like the "feel" of it. It's a summer staple for me. ❤
I am addicted to La Mia Perla and think I need to get a backup or two because I believe it might be discontinued 😩. Some fragrance in the same category that I appreciate are Pierre Guillaume Le Musc & La Peau and Essential Parfums The Musc. There are lots of lovely soft Iris frags like Penhaligon’s Iris Prima and Houbigant Iris des Champs. I find Frederic Malle L’Eau d’Hiver to be a stunning and delicate scent that whispers on the skin. I find a Bvlgari Omnia Crystalline to be a really nice, soft fresh tea scent.
Wow Meghan….you just named some amazing fragrances! I want to try the new La Perla fragrances also…..
Ooh this is my kind of perfume. I have a lot of gentle ones, those are the ones that I reach for most I think. Mine are Jimmy Choo Illicit flower, Glossier you, all saints metal wave and weirdly, recently, I know a lot of people hate this one, but boss orange EDT... 🤷♀️
Glossier You still on my list! 😂
You mentioned working in a hospital and I have wondered what you do in the past and guessed you worked in healthcare some how. That maybe sounds weird but I had nicu babies (one was in for a long time and very sick especially). And you remind me of some of the confident, matter of fact yet kind people I dealt with while sitting there for months with my baby.
What? That is such an incredible compliment and I can’t even tell you. 🙏🏻❤️ My own son was born 5 weeks early and was in the NICU and those nurses who cared for him were my literal heroes. One day I will reveal my alter ego but I do work in a field that requires me to be very calm and level headed and gentle. So thank you….I really appreciate it. Big hug. 🥰
@@ThePerfumeNest it shows for sure in your calm confident nature. Whether or not you go bedside I can see you have that manner. My son was 27 weeks and very sick and my girl was born with a rare complication because of some issues with my crappy carrying children body. I am still in touch with some of my sons nurses almost 11 years later.
@@kara8911 Aw! Yep! I’m “bedside” pretty much throughout the day. But when I get home it’s silliness, hiking/exercising , spirits to wind down. I’m anything but calm and serious when I’m not at work. Your poor babies!!! Poor you! That is so hard !!!! Both of mine born preemie Also…and went into early labor with BOTH at 32 weeks…..bed rest and all but my son just couldn’t stay in that turkey. I have a crappy baby carrying body also! 😂 🥰 I never thought my skinny little boy who was on a ventilator would grow up to be the huge and strong teenager he is today. 🙏🏻 miracles…..
@@ThePerfumeNest I’m glad you are in a position to help people when life is not going well or at least when they are needing help. Oh no, you had them both early. Thank goodness you all made it. I’m so grateful that there are people so much smarter than I ever could be that have develop technology and methods to help our poor babies (and ourselves) survive and even thrive. My first was a uterine rupture. A miracle we survived. I’m sorry you also had a crappy baby carrying body! Haha! They are miracles. Thank God!
@@kara8911 Amen to that my dear. 🙏🏻🙌💕
I quite like Bella by Tocca. It's so gentle and subtle, I believe.
Also So Delarenta by Oscar Delarenta, is soft. ☺️💕⚘
I need to get Bella. I sampled it this summer at a cute little store and loved it! 🥰
Lavandes trianon.....so hard to find now damn.....is there gonna be at least one for me lol 😆
Great review and perfums greetings from the Netherlands
Well hello!! We had a lovely young man from Holland stay with us over Christmas Break. My son met him playing video games and they became friends. He introduced me to Stoup waffle (he gave me as a gift) and Holy Cow! I’m hooked! Can’t wait for him to visit again. 💕
@@ThePerfumeNest its called stroopwafels and very Sweet Nice to hear that,but i am not dutch im german living in the Netherlands
🥰
I'd add Dama Bianca by Casamorati Xerjoff. So darn good and soft. I just ordered a sample of the L'Artisan Parfum with the rice powder note (the name escapes me now). You featured it in another video I watched recently.
ah yes! Le Chant de Camarge! 👏🏻💕🙌perfect for spring!
@@ThePerfumeNest I got tracking from Luckyscent that it is on the way.
@@roxw7221 🙌💕💕👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻yay!
I want Lavandes Trianon. But I wish there were such a thing as a gentle fragrance that also had great longevity. I would love gentle ones more if they just lasted! I am like you with JM- I can't see paying a lot for a perfume that doesn't last. BTW, I bought a dupe for Wood Sage & Sea Salt because the dupe lasts a lot longer, and I don't feel guilty about dupes if I feel I am getting price-gouged and a perfume doesn't have longevity. I have the original JM version, too, and sometimes I spray the original on top of the dupe and it really lasts.
Wonderful! I think I’ll find a similar body cream. ThT always helps. Wood Sage I love it even so and has a nice role for me…work, crowds…and I finally bought a full bottle so I can wear it more. 😄💕
Hi Chris, 👋🏽
I’m one of those that prefer my scents discrete and understated. I just don’t like the idea of suffocating others with my perfume and bc I have a sensitive nose (i.e. I can detect very faint odors), I know it doesn’t take much for some. Especially when you’re trapped in a situation (movie theater, airplane, etc.) I’m adding the Montblanc to my cart!
To your list, I’d add L’Artisan ‘Safran Troublant’, Bvlgari ‘Petits et Mamans’, and Teo Cabanel ‘Je Ne Sais Quoi’ (which has a nice rice note)
☮️💟
Hi there!!! I have been the owner of Je Ne Sais Quoi for about a year and love it. ❤️ isn’t Safran Troublant discontinued? I remember trying to look last year but couldn’t find it. I’ll look again! 💕Thank you!
@@ThePerfumeNest sigh L’Artisan needs to make up their mind? 🤦🏻♀️ From what I could tell (and it’s kind of a blur like all my pandemic memories), it did go through a discontinuation phase… but then I thought it was back (which made me feel silly after I’d bought a backup bottle). I didn’t see it on their website just now so I guess it’s DC again. Boo. Nevermind to that one then! And I’m so glad you like JNSQ! I don’t hear much mention of the line and I think they’re a good one. 🤓

My gentle beauties are Trussardi Delicate Rose ( so light and wispy), and 2 recently discontinued : Armani Si Fiori ( pale pink bottle)when sprayed lightly, and the original Valentino Donna ( softest rose with the inside of a fancy kid glove). Thank you Chris, for introducing us to so many categories of fragrance moods.
Hi Suzanne!!! I have a couple of Trussardi fragrances that I love but never heard of Delicate Rose………Donna (Valentino) and Si Fiore are beauties! 💕
Gosh, I need to get my nose on Sandalwood Temple!
It is gorgeous. 🥰💕
Love this list so much! I have to be circumspect with fragrances at work (just in case anyone has sensitivities). Thank you for these Fabulous ideas! I often wear gentle frags to work (or under-spray my bigger scents) and shower again right when I get home so I can wear more opulent fragrances in the evenings. 😀
I love that way you think!!! 😆I try to pack as many scents as I can in also!?😄
I don’t have many quiet perfumes but the one that I reach for is chabaud lait de vanille
Oh shoot! I should have included that! You are right. I just posted that to IG last week for vanilla week (or two weeks ago). 🙌❤️🔥
I enjoyed this video. My son works in the healthcare industry and is looking for a calming and mild scent, any suggestions for guys?
Hmmmm….That’s a tough one. Clean Reserve “Skin” would be perfect but he might find it a little feminine. Chanel Blue and Bal d’Afrique are nice and fresh. I love when my colleagues wear it and we’re in a hospital.
I love quiet fragrances! In fact I like that I can put on more sprays with them 💦😄
Absolutely!! 🥰
I love Musc et Le Peau by Pierre Guillaume and Eau Duelle by Diptyque
Oh those are so lovely!!!
You should try Poppy and Barley from J.M. I accidentally try it and I bought it right after I realized it has such a great longevity on me. I could not believe it! Most of my perfumes are winter-y cause nothing last on me! I have a really hard time with freshies...
Hi Ari! I just purchased Poppy &Barley blindly a few weeks ago (still haven’t received it) for the barley note. Can’t wait to get my nose on it. 🥰
@@ThePerfumeNest That's great!You'll see it has better performance from the other J.M. even better than Wood Sage and Sea Salt wich i have and I can compare 😉
@@arikokkinou1120 I’m just looking forward to a fragrance with barley! Sounds fun! 👏🏻❤️
I really like Gucci Memoire d'une Odeur and Le Couvent des Minimes - Eau de Missions (discontinued, available on eBay).
Ah yes Le Couvent! I had a bottles years ago…just darling. Considered getting another…….❤️
I get migraines and I’m enjoying Ellis Brooklyn Myth.
Ok!!
When I saw the bottles behind you I was convinced it was zara sweet pastry in Paris. This one I've missed completely
Sandalwood temple also sounds really nice!!! First I thought by the name it would have incense aswell. Definitely need to check it up
Wood sage and sea salt hands down my favorite from Jo Malone. Me and my wife keep fighting about it in the summertime! Great video
Gorgeous!!! But quiet!! Very soft!
I can see why! Love it! 💕
One of my favorite categories! I will add Anamor All That Matters and Barbara Bui and Jo Malone Honey & Crocus(if you can still find them)
Honey and Crocus???? Ok…I’m intrigued….💕
@@ThePerfumeNest it was from the LE English Fields collection. It was a soft beautiful fragrance…more vanilla than honey. The whole collection was pretty good.
@@susanbohm3601 I just ordered Poppy and Barley. They barley was calling my name! 😂
@@ThePerfumeNest I liked it from that collection and then they re-released it and to me it didn’t smell the same:( But I might be confusing it with one of the others…the one with rye maybe
@@susanbohm3601 we shall see….I’m into carbs recently if you haven’t noticed! 😁
Hi,
Do you have any recommendations for a raspberry scented perfume? something like Lavandes Trianon but replace lavender with raspberries? Thanks
Hi Ramona! I do not have many raspberry scents but the ones that come to mind are Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue Royale or Cacharel Yes I am. Both incredibly inexpensive.
Oh, thank you for this! I can’t stand smelling someone I can smell 20 feet away.
😂🥰
Great video. I only counted 11 fragrances. What is the fragrance on your far right?
Omg!!! As I was editing last night I noticed that also! Lelee……this is what happens when you are a ding-a-ling like myself and film late at night (back to back videos). You FORGET to mention a fragrance that is right in front (or behind) you. It’s Pistachio Brûlée by Urban Outfitters! Oy! Ok….it will be on another one (although it was in an IG reel last week) 😉💕
You are no ding-a-ling 😂. Thank you for the reply. Truly enjoy your content.
Btw I appreciate non beast mode perfumes. I have a strong personality so I don’t want to wear something that equals it; I’d prefer wearing soft approachable fragrances when around others
Lol! ❤️
Omg I can't fo fragrances with an Orchid note. I thought I would like charriol but I'm thinking no now.....damn
No orchid!??? What about Ange Ou Demon???? That has orchid……🥰😘
Tova Nights from QVC
I’m always asked what I’m wearing.
Really?? Ok! Thank you! That’s a new one. 👏🏻
I have the la per
Awesome! An underrated gem! ❤️
Can’t remember if you have smelled Jousset Accident a la Vanille. Talk about a vanilla sandalwood 😂👍🏻
Yes!!🥰
Repeat viewer 🙋🏻♀️
I love you so much chica! 💕
Not overly offensive and too risqué......oh well I have no requests then 😮😆
Omg!!! I seriously died laughing reading that! Died!!!! Belly laugh. Gosh I adore you and your humor. 😂😂😂😂😂🥰
👌👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
HOLA MI AMIGAAAA.
Hi Marcial!
10 to 12 sprays would be 30 on me lol 😆
Omg!!!! Lol!!!! I know!! 😂😂😂
We can never go to the gym together 😬
Lol! Staph it! I’m talking about those guys who are wearing 2 pounds of cologne to cover up man stink!!!! 😂😂😂
@@ThePerfumeNest uuuuffff yea thats bad lol, I wear light ones for sure. My fave for the gym has been Pacific Rock Moss!
1-2 hours on a Roja????? No way, no thank you mam 😟
Yep. That’s what I thought about the Essence Line even though many were very nice.
