Thank you for the discovery! 😊 003 became an easy grabber for me in warm/hot weather and I found the format really convenient for travelling during holidays. I still need to test more 603 and I feel like the weather is now perfect for it 😄
@@OlfactiveStories you're so lucky with all that plum japonais too! Yes, Des Cendre smelled nice from the cap but gets too smoky on my skin. I need to give it more wear time though. 💙
Happy New Year Karine🎉, what a beautiful line up; your first had me drooling ❤. I purchased Xerjoff Ivory Route , Memo Russian Leather❤️,Diptyque 34❤️, Chanel Les Exclusifs Bois Des Iles❤oh myyyy ❤️. Shalimar Millesime Iris; I prefer the Tonka but this is pretty. I found a 100ml bottle of Bal D’Afrique( I adore this for daytime and work) Byredo BD’A oil ( new) has really enhanced and prolonged the longevity. It’s my only freshy that I feel comfortable and elegant with. The citrus freshies on my skin turn a bit air freshener 😭, yet I love it on others. I purchased a Perris sampler and the Ylang Ylang Nosy Be is GORRRRGEOUS on my skin; so that will be a definite new one. Thank you Karine, have a beautiful and prosperous 2024 🥳🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺❤️🧡
Happy New Year! 😊🥳 Oh what beautiful fragrances you got. I also have Bois des iles, it's really special for me 🥰 I got a travel spray of Russian leather, love it too 😍 I don't know which version of Shalimar is my favourite, I have many and I love to change the version of it depending on my mood and the season 😁 I adore citrus notes in fragrances but I'm also really picky about them. To me Guerlain and Les indémodables have the best bergamote so far. If you want to try good citrus fragrances, don't hesitate to check the ones by Laboratorio Olfattivo and Perris Monte Carlo. JC Ellena worked on these ones and I find them really good ❤
@@OlfactiveStories Oh my goodness, I missed your message🙏🏻 I completely agree about Shalimar versions, it really does depend on mood and weather for me.. The refreshing surprise I found was the Shalimar Eau Légére Parfumée , light . If I find the Guerlain Les indémodables , I’ll definitely try and I’ve just started on my Perris journey🧡 Thank you Karine🙏🏻❤️🧡Stani
If I lived in France, I probably would've taken Chypre Mousse off of your hands! 😉 Didn't know about that TF sale either. But 250 mL?? 🤯 Wowza. I've been eyeing a 30 mL of Iris Medicis myself, mainly because I love how Patricia blends florals. Thank you so much for sharing Karine!! Wishing you a splendid new year full of new fragrance finds. 🥰
Haha yes I couldn't believe they had these crazy sales on all these discontinued TF fragrances. It gave me the impression that they did their inventory and found lots of bottles they forgot to return but cannot sell in store anymore. And they put them on sales adding a huge discount on the price they were sold years ago 🤣 If you enjoy n°19, Bel respiro and Nicolai fragrances in general, I guess you would enjoy Iris medicis indeed 😊 I wish you a wonderful year! 🥳🥂
You've added some beauties to your collection and what a bargain you got with that Tom Ford. Sometimes it's about being in the right place at the right time👍. I'm still interested in Unspoken Musk; is it like Musk Therapy?
Exactly! Such a good surprise to see these fragrances available ... and for a vey good price! I've not tried Musk therapy but if it's about clean white musks then it will be quite different. The musk in unspoken musk is not clean, it's smelling more like skin. It's sensual and has some sweetness to it.
I was so happy to discover these sales, especially that I was really looking for a back-up. And I found the price was reasonable for that quantity (+/- 250€)
I bought a bottle of Blue Lotus from TRNP a few years ago. My bottle is a tiny bit spicy but for me it smells like a rich vanilla custard. I typically struggle with vanilla but I do enjoy this one. I think her scents vary from formulation to formulation. My hands down favorite from this house is Irises. It’s a rare warm gorgeous Iris scent. You made some wonderful purchases in 2023.❤
Oh I wish I could try that one but it looks like her offering is evolving quickly. And yes indeed, depending on the batches it could be very different. Blind buys are always tricky, still I very happy with my purchase 😉
Your videos are very relaxing to watch. I like the intro but the outro wakes me up every time. Otherwise I could do your videos on repeat while sleeping. Good explaination about every fragrance tho 🏩
On the Galeries Lafayette website. I checked their sales this summer and noticed that they had huge sales on many discontinued TF fragrances. I guess they got their annual inventory or something and noticed they still had these discontinued bottles in stock 😄
congratulations on finding TF Plum Japonais! I also jumped on a backup when I found it posted on a fragrance group. Plum and licorice 🤤 I blind bought 3 redundant scents from TRNP so I could experience how Teone works w oud across different vintages - Embers 2 different years, and Sacred Ground - SG was the work she said she was most proud of. In the US, I paid I think $230? for 30ml, I wish I could try more but it’s too pricey.
Indeed that was a good deal 😄 I cannot remember the price for the TRNP and I'm not sure I received a bill or a confirmation email before it was sent so I cannot tell. Still I think the price was still good during the sales, the only problem for me was the custom taxes I had to pay when it arrived in France 😅
Bonjour, j'adore vos vidéos. On a des gouts très similaires. En effet souvent sur Fragrantica quand je regarde qui d'autre possède certains de mes parfums peu connu, et bien je tombe sur vous! Lol. La marque TRNP me fait de l'oeil depuis un petit moment mais je ne trouve aucun revendeur sur la France. Vous avez acheté où vos flacons TRNP ?
Haha oui je me sers de Fragrantica pour garder un historique de ce que je porte, ça m'aide beaucoup pour retrouver mes favoris du mois ensuite 😉 J'ai acheté mes parfums TRNP directement sur le site de la marque. J'ai profité de grosses soldes sur le site vers mai-juin. C'était super intéressant du coup, par contre un peu moins quand j'ai reçu mon paquet ... j'ai eu presque 100€ de frais de douane 😭 Pour l'Europe je sais qu'elle a un revendeur européen (suédois si je ne me trompe pas). Essayez "Gents TRNP" sur Google. Ils ont beaucoup moins de choix et les prix sont plus élevés (mais en contre-partie pas de frais de douane)
My skin tends to emphasize the sweetness of fragrances, so sweet fragrances are always tricky for me. Still it seems that this one finally works for me in colder weather. I hope it will also work for you in the end 😉
You have given me hope that I may yet enjoy Millesime iris. Congrats on the giant flacon of plum japonais- what a find! 🤩
Hi Cherie! Indeed I guess it's too hot in Australia right now for this flanker 😉
@@OlfactiveStories for sure! I got it too late in the year (October I think) so will wait for winter to roll around again :)
We are delighted to be part of your collection 🤩
Thank you for the discovery! 😊

Belle Àme is so lovely. Up at the top off my wish list. Beautiful. Thank you!
Very beautiful discovery ! I also really enjoy Des cendres 😍

Your videos are a sheer delight! and WOW - that Plum Japonais would sell for HUGE money in the US. It is extremely rare here.

Which is the Iris one, what is the name?
Belle Ame 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Love it ❤ I wish I had Des cendres too 🥰

It's the signal that it's time to go to bed 😄 I'm joking but I do the same with make up videos 😂
Greta buys dear ❤ happy new year ❤
Happy New Year! 🥳🥳🥳
Where did you get the Jonquille de Nuit!? 😢

I didn’t get on with the Millesime it’s so waited until Xmas to try again and still nada, too caramel heavy for me. I’ll wait a couple of weeks again!
