What a wonderful discovery set! Appreciate the fact that they include test papers and the booklet. This is the 1st I’ve heard of this brand. Thanks for the review.
It's a really well thought out set! I agree that it has some lovely extras that make it feel quite bespoke and luxurious. It's a nice testing experience that I wish more brands would think about. Thanks for watching 🥰
I love how you add your final thoughts in the end, it helps so much! I feel like there are just sooo many brands that would do better as room sprays and candles. I agree with you that it is a matter of your personal taste, however sometimes it may feel disappointing and makes you wonder "What's the point?" Every brand is trying to create perfumes now 🙈
I am sorry to say it, but I have to be honest, there's absolutely no point in this otherwise. I do think they have some nice fragrances but for me a lot are more candle or home fragrances rather than perfumes. It's so so subjective though and I'm sure someone else would love some of these as perfumes. We're all different 😊 thanks for watching 🥰
I spent a long time trying these but sadly they mostly weren't for me, but I thought it was worthwhile to share my opinion on these. Haha, yep, Wednesday videos are a rarity. Thanks for watching 🥰
Hi Claire, looking forward to this video! It’s nice that you got the sets for free! 😊 Love Story sounds nice to me but my husband probably wouldn’t like the rose or spice. No to cat pee lol but from the description I would have thought I’d have liked it too. I love orange blossom and sandalwood
Thanks Mona. I was happy to try these but I can't say that most were for me. There were some likes though! Haha 😂 I find partners quite often change their opinion on exactly the same fragrance, it can be hard to pin it down! Thanks for watching 🥰
Nice surprise to see a video of yours midweek Claire 😊 I've never heard of Saltworks. That was quite the project testing 20 fragrances! As you say a fair number of these might be better as home scents, candles etc.
Absolutely it was! And I wrote the reviews first time around back in March and then my laptop failed and I lost them all 😂 and I had to do it all again 😂 I can't say these grabbed me sadly. It's a well thought out discovery set though with the blotters and booklet. It was nice to try them. 🥰
I have not heard of this company so thanks for the review! It looks like they've changed up their website...now they have men's and women's discovery sets. 🤯
I hadn't heard of them either until a subscriber told me about them and then I got contacted by the company a few weeks later so I thought people might be interested in a review, which is why I agreed. Yes! They brought out a men's one, a woody and spicy and a romantic set all in the last 5 months. They seem to be very hot on new launches. There are often new fragrances being launched too. Thanks for watching 🥰
Hi Claire 🤗 never heard of the brand! So good to hear your thoughts, I actually have used some fragrances as room sprays because they have that home candle scent! 😊
Me neither until a subscriber told me about them, then weirdly the brand asked me if I wanted to try the fragrances a few weeks later. These didn't grab me unfortunately, there were some likes though. Thanks for watching 🥰
Interesting! Sounds like they might be better suited for use in home and body type scents as opposed to fine fragrance? Edit : lol you just said exactly that in your conclusion. I should have watched til theend before commenting I am wearing Kilian Woman in Gold tonight and it really reminds me of the scent used in the Oi range by Davines haircare if you have ever smelled that. They do a hand balm in that range that I absolutely adore and need to rebuy 🖤
Yes! I am sad to say that was my conclusion. Ooh! Yes I've tried that one. I've not tried any Davines haircare or other products though. I watch Hailey O (Just buy the makeup) and she's always talking about Davines. They sound good! 😊
Excellent overview Claire. 💜 Didn't even know about this brand. Bottle designs remind me of Hugo Boss meets Phaedon meets Zara meets PdM. 😄 Incidentally wearing Tabac Rouge today layered with Kayaan Classic. 😊 A bombastic combo.
I have never heard of Salt Works. Oh L’Orangerie sounds amazing actually but I am a sucker for citrus as it really energizes me and is always bright! Love the makeup as well balanced well with the colours of your top! 🥰🥰
Thank you Denise 🙂 I'm not sure whether Saltworks are just UK, I assume they might be actually, which might be why you've not heard of them. l'orangerie has a lovely opening for sure! Thanks for watching 🥰
They might be UK only, I'm not sure. It's weird but there are hardly any reviews for them. I hadn't heard of the brand until a subscriber told me about them and said she was going to send me her discovery set... In the meantime, the brand contacted me and sent me two 😱 it took me absolutely ages to do this review 🤣 I wrote them all just before my laptop failed in April and then lost them and had to retry it all and start again 🤦♀️
They do have lovely ones for sure. Their website is absolutely stunning! I was very impressed with it. Everything looks so beautiful. Thanks for watching 🥰
I've heard of this house, mainly through the freebie samples they give away from time to time via Facebook. Every scent of theirs I've heard of sounds kind of "basic" and a bit meh. Many have sounded fresh / aquatic and perhaps more traditionally masculine leaning, and so overall just not to my taste, or interesting enough to make me care to be honest! You did a good job to get through all 20 Claire 🙂 dedication to the cause for sure! But I think you also confirmed what I'd already suspected, that this is unlikely a house I'm fussed about digging into any more.
Hi Emma! Lovely to hear from you! ❤️ It's weird, but there are hardly any reviews for Saltworks... I hadn't even heard of the brand until a subscriber told me about them and said she was going to send me her discovery set... In the meantime, the brand contacted me and sent me two! 😱 And you know what? It took me absolutely ages to do this review 🤣 I wrote all 20 after three months with them just before my laptop failed in April and then lost them and had to retry them all and start again 🤦♀️ nightmare! I think if brands want a speedy review, sending 20 at a time isn't the way to go about it 🤣 I can't say these were at all for me, I have to be honest otherwise there is absolutely no point in doing this. There was the odd one that I liked though. Thanks for watching 🥰
Oh yes! That's actually probably a better comparison! It's very sweet! I get what you mean about Mr Kipling, the heavy texture of the icing and the moist feel along with the sweetness. I struggled with a lot of the aquatics sadly, they just aren't my bag. 🙈
I'd choose the second discovery set over the first. But if you are not into aquatic citrus and fresh woody fragrances it might not be for you. The first set was quite sweet and floral, although the second set was also reasonably sweet. They do have a woody set too, which I haven't tried. I can't say the ones that I tried here in the video were for me. I hope that helps. 🙂
I bought the original discovery set to try last year. Wasn’t impressed at all. Some of them instantly reminded me of a few designer perfumes I already own. To me they are just glorified designer perhaps niche dupes. When I asked the question if they are dupes on their instagram post, my post got instantly deleted. They are also far too expensive for what they are.
I can completely understand that. The original discovery set did make me think of a few things, but nothing was that spot on. I can't say I loved these, and I was in two minds whether to even make a review as I hate to be negative, but they just weren't for me, as you can see from my conclusions! I thought most might work better as home fragrances or soaps. It's a bit sad if posts are deleted, it's a fair question to ask, I agree that these seem expensive. Thanks for watching 🥰

@@dr.claire.perfume it was through watching Hailey's and Caroline Hirons empties videos that I discovered them 🤗
Aaah! Hailey does talk about them a lot! 😂

Thank you ❤️ Yes! That's a fab mashup description of the bottle design 😂
Haha! Wow! Can people smell you before they see you today? 😉
@@dr.claire.perfume 😅 No comment. 🤣

How come I have never heard anout these? Thank you so much for reviewing the brand!❤️ Watching 👀

I have a travel size of Tabac Soleil and love wearing it on a cold winter’s day.
That was one of my favourites from the first set, possibly my favourite actually. It was for sure the most interesting of the ten. 🥰
Thanks Claire! I haven't tried any from the brand. But I love their photos!
They do have lovely ones for sure. Their website is absolutely stunning! I was very impressed with it. Everything looks so beautiful. Thanks for watching 🥰
Interesting video! At least this time the company has a German distributor 😅❤
Thank you ❤️

Ko Meme reminds me of the Viva La Juicy fragrances
11:07 😂 It does smell like a candle. I still get that Mr Kipling feel
I didn’t like De La Mer 🫣
Oh yes! That's actually probably a better comparison! It's very sweet!
I get what you mean about Mr Kipling, the heavy texture of the icing and the moist feel along with the sweetness.
I struggled with a lot of the aquatics sadly, they just aren't my bag. 🙈
Out of these which would you say is more male scent many thanks
I'd choose the second discovery set over the first. But if you are not into aquatic citrus and fresh woody fragrances it might not be for you.

I can't say the ones that I tried here in the video were for me. I hope that helps. 🙂
I tried this first set. For me all of them felt flat, without any depth. I didnt bought any full bottle :)
I can't say they impressed me, as I say in the conclusions at the end, these just weren't for me either. Thanks for watching 🥰
I have never heard of this brand
Me neither until a subscriber contacted me about them, then very strangely the brand contacted me about 3 weeks later... It was super odd timing!
