Please don't ever stop being "harsh" or overly critical in your reviews. As brands/influencers continue to push new releases onto consumers, your honesty is invaluable and much appreciated 🙌🏽❤️
I’m a little late but I agree too. Sometimes people get after reviewers for being “negative” but I want to know the real quality of each product! Products don’t deserve a good review just for not being actively bad.
Covered in roses smells so elegant and mature but not in an old lady way haha🌹 they better at least keep it online if they are going to be limited edition in stores
Im a perfume enthusiast, and I gifted my mom a little sample of Delina, and she fell in love. She ended up also buying the Covered In Roses. It literally lasted and projected so well, it lasted on her for 8 hours.
As someone who is very picky with fragrance, I love having the option of trying expensive fragrance at an affordable price even if they’re not as long lasting. They’ll give me an Idea of the scent and some time to try it out for a while. I was so stocked when the launched in Canada and ordered a few when they were on sale for $7.
friendly reminder that bath and body works has a sale going on atm -- all body care is $5.95 online/in store until sep 3rd so you can grab these/any other scents on the cheap right now
Please do more dupe videos! I love your videos for when I need to do research to invest in an expensive fragrance for a special occasion but I love having good scents that I can wear everyday and not feel like I'm wasting really expensive purfume for a non event.
My fav is also covered in roses. It’s a gorgeous scent and surprisingly lasts longer on my skin than most B&BW fragrances. I also have Delina and I can confirm that it’s a 10/10 dupe! Love this video btw ❤
I bought 8 of the 10 from the collection when it was released. I think this is the best collection that B&BW has ever done. It far surpassed my expectations. I bought backup bottles of Covered in Roses, Pink Obsessed and Petal Parade when they went on sale. I’m dying for them to make matching soaps & lotions of this collection. It would really help with the performance (although the performance is surprisingly not bad at all for a body mist). 🌹
@@Aphrodite01 I didn’t get If You Musk (smelled like a hair salon according to my husband lol) or Lost In Santal (just not a fan of that scent profile). My top 5 are: 1-Covered In Roses, 2-Pink Obsessed, 3-Petal Parade, 4-Floral Fantasy, 5-Oh Cherry. My top 3 are the most used, though.
1. Petal perade : prada paradox 2. Covered in roses: Perfums de Marly Delina 3. Viva vanilla: billie eilish 4. Floral fantasy: Victor & Rolf flowerbomb 5. Pink obsession: Valentino Donna born in Roma 6.Get away: Tom ford soleil blanc
I smelled covered in roses a few days ago and HAD to grab it. I have Delina exclusif and love it, and that spray blew my mind. And it lasts FOREVER! I was shook!
Covered in Roses does last long. I live in the Caribbean and heat and humidity usually causes body mists to sweat off or it disappears after a few mins but that one held on.
I can’t explain it but if you musk reminds me of being in Disney… it’s so cozy and nostalgic. I just want to put it on after a hot shower and jump in bed and nap.
To me If You Musk reminds me of when I was a kid and my family would come home from a long vacation and the house still smelled floral clean from before we left but still a hint of musky stagnant air, in a good way
To me, On the Horizon is spot on for MAC Turquatic. I don’t get Sailing Day much as that perfume has a salty ocean brine smell that I don’t smell in On the Horizon at all. I do enjoy both those fragrances though so either way, it’s a win win :)
Is this weird? I love your voice, I love the clarity in your speech and how you talk. It's not your accent, because I'm from Canada too, it's just the way you pronounciate and the way your speech sounds so crisp yet smooth. Hard to describe. 🤣 But also love your content! 🤗
Thanking you for reviewing these. Thank you for the "pencil shavings" and "pickle" descriptions. My thoughts exactly when it comes to those two scents. I have a few of them. They are much longer lasting than their regular body mist line. For the price, I find it a super bargain. Covered in Roses is SUPER strong and long-lasting to me. To me, it's more of a dupe for Delina Exclusif. I had gone to pick up a target order in the drive up while wearing this. A few hours later, I forgot something in the back of my car and opened it and OMG I was hit in the face by Covered in Roses. I was actually embarrassed because I'm sure it had the same reaction to the Target associate who loaded my car. So my point is, have a light hand when spraying it. I also have Armaf Club de Nuit White Imperiale and I find that one is an exact dupe for Delina Exclusif. It's also SUPER DUPER strong and ONE spray is all that is needed or you will clear a room with it and not in a good way. Have you tried the Club de Nuit one? I don't have "le nez" when it comes to perfumes but you sound like you do. I'd love to hear your thoughts. ♥
If you have vanilla romance, I'm curious about the comparison between the two vanillas. Another great dupe is Brightest Bloom, smells just like Daisy and I've been enjoying in these last days of summer.
I appreciate your opinion so much because you describe scents SO well - I bought pink obsessed , covered in roses and if you musk . If you musk I like WAY more than glossier you - it’s more fruity shampooey and idek just comforting ! Glossier you seems less complex some how?! I LOVE pink obsessed it’s just like a perfect perfume that most people will like as you saif
Could you do a vid for wedding fragrances? I’m getting married next month and don’t know what perfume I’m going to wear. The most romantic and girly ones you can think of pls!
i need to try if you musk, i had the same issue with glossier you not working with my chemistry! also viva vanilla... i really hope b&bw continues making dupes because clearly they know what they're doing!
I have On the Horizon and it reminds me a lot of Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana. It’s a little outside the typical scent profile I like, but I mostly wear it for working out or when I want to smell fresh!
I bought the On The Horizon because I like it, but I feel like it has zero projection and zero lasting power. Does it last on you? I didn't return it yet.
I get what you’re saying about the Oh Cherry scent, but I actually really like it. I’ve learned that I really enjoy magnolia as a note because it gives me a very clean second skin smell without feeling sharp on the nose like a lot of musk fragrances do for me. I’m a nurse and would normally never wear any fragrance to work, but this one is so subdued that I would. To me it’s a clean floral with the slightest hint of cherry. Not complex, not attention grabbing, but I still catch wisps of a soft fresh smell that doesn’t make me smell like I showered with Febreze.
I just discovered Prada Paradoxe, and have been on a fragrance journey to find "the one" for me for a year now. I really think this is it. I am going to try the intense one just to be sure, but the original meshes with my chemistry perfectly!! ❤️🔥
I just bought Covered In Roses and wow, it packs a powerful and delightful punch. I definitely used a bit too much cause I'm not used to body mists being as powerful as a high end fragrance, but even with just a little, it's pleasantly strong and lasts for HOURS. Such a sweet and feminine scent!
A genuinely thank you for these reviews. I just purchased some. It’s been so difficult finding something that I like that smells good/lasts a bit longer. Fav perfume is Scarlett Poppy and I can never smell it on myself after a minute. Honestly so frustrating for the price. Thanks again for these!
I loveeeeee Delina is one of my most compliment fragrance… and I brought the covered in roses and it smell just like delina.. chef kiss to bath and bodywork’s for this dupe
Getaway soirée is a solid 9/10 dupe for Soleil Blanc. SB is my summer fragrance that I wear all day every day and I was shocked by how close Getaway Soirée is. I bought several just in case they discontinue it 🤣
Oooh!!! This is so interesting, I want to try Donna Born in Roma and Delina now. I just got into perfumes, I only have two purse sprays and am never ever going back. Burberry Goddess and Lancome La Vie Est Belle L'Elixir ♥
Loved this video! I picked up most of the collection and am finding myself surprised by what I like. I usually hate rose but Covered In Roses is amazing to me and my husband loves it too! If You Musk is right up there, too. And I think Oh, Cherry is def a TF dupe because I don't think the Cherry Baby perfume was even out yet. I get TF because of the Tonka :)
I'm so happy I discovered your channel! I just bought the Covered in Roses based on your review and I LOVE it. Its so warm and pretty and I find quite long lasting for a body spray. Looking forward to watching your other videos. You're so generous to share with us!
Covered in Roses has been my signature scent and because I wear it most of the time, one mist will only last for only two weeks. I have one on-hand so I have to order a lot from resellers. I just regret that during it's first sale I just bought like 4 of them and they take a long time to arrive because I'm in the Philippines.
It’s also took me a few years to appreciate Prada Paradoxe but man do I love it now. It’s sooo pretty and feminine and sweet. The neroli and vanilla are right up my alley. And I have to be careful not to overspray cause it’s potent ❤😂😊
The drydown of Viva Vanilla is, to my nose, identical to Ariana Grande Mod Vanilla. Viva Vanilla, however, opens with a horrendous blast of black pepper. After that dissipates, it is a spot-on dupe of Mod Vanilla. I'm not a huge fan of either of them, because I think the fruity plum note is incongruent with the super musky vanilla base. I also think the vanilla smells cheap and thin. The more recently released B&BW fragrance Vanilla Romance is in the same realm as both of them, but far superior, in my opinion. Instead of plum, there is an aromatic, camphoric cardamom note. The vanilla is richer, almost like vanilla extract, and it's less musky and more woody. Can't get enough of it! Beautiful from opening to drydown.
I hopped over to bath and body works specifically excited about If You Musk as I have their other Musk scent and love it, but HATED if you musk on myself!! did not work at all on my chemistry but smelled amazing on my friend. Smelled all of them, my two favs were floral fantasy and lost in santal (shockingly!!) picked up lost in santal, in my opinion it almost smells like coconut curry (in a good way), warm fragrant spices! I’d compare the scent to Native’s Coconut and Turmeric scented products :)
Great review, Emma! 10/10. The Prada dupe is heavenly and so complex. I’ve tried Delina dupes before and it’s usually just rose petals to me. But the BBW dupe is really lovely.
First time viewer and I have to say I loved your deep dive on all these scents and how you described the smells! I historically have not liked body sprays bc they tend to smell so cheap and overpowering. Some of these scents piqued my interest! I'll have to go check them out. So happy I stumbled upon your channel. SUBSCRIBED ✅
Would love the comparison of the different Donna Born in Roma fragrances! I love the original but recently smelled the Stravaganza and am considering buying it.
Nice opinions & images comparing the perfume to the bbw dupe. Pink obsessed smells so close to VDBIR & I love that perfume. Do a review on the BIR collection. I just got the green stravaganza & enjoy it. The new gold perfume came out & would like to hear your opinion.
Bought samples of these 10, and first tried your least fave (Lost in Santal). It's not bad on me, upon first spray it felt familiar and realized it smells like Lazy Sunday Morning by Replica (which I like)! 🤗 Excited to try all the others.
What I get from this is I definitely want Viva Vanilla, Floral Fantasy, If You Musk, Covered in Roses... And maybe Lost in Santal. These are going on my wishlist next time B&BW has a sale as I just missed the last one and have a few body mists to go through before buying more. 😅 Edit: I wasn't a huge fan of Prada Paradox either but I think I'll add Petal Parade to my wishlist too. 😊
My favorites are Covered in Roses, Viva Vanilla and Floral Fantasy. So much so that I drove to a few different stores to smell the perfumes that they're dupes for because I was afraid that if BBW discontinues, I'd have to buy the more expensive perfumes. Oh Cherry was the scent that made me even care about this collection but I was the most disappointed with that one. I probably get around 4 or 5 hours out of my favorite ones and On the Horizon so I'm not even mad about that for how cheap they are
Out of the ones I've tried thus far, Viva Vanilla is an absolute BEAST! The one I would wholeheartedly recommend out of the entire collection; whereas the others are YMMV.
I have both the Born in Roma (I love) and the Pink Obsessed is exactly the same, in my opinion. I recognized it immediately when I smelled it in the store without knowing what it was supposed to be a dupe for. Additionally, I was told by someone in BBWs that Petal Parade was supposed to be a duplicate for Good Girl. I've never smelled the Prada one, so I'll have to see but it does smell like Good Girl. I also loved Getaway Soiree. Good review!
I have a crazy video suggestion haha, to find dupes for Hilary Duff With Love and Wrapped with love perfumes. (Cheaper options and luxury ones too if possible). Haven't found anything like it, and is such a good perfume! Thank you for this video! Very detailed and I trust your judgment ❤
ahh I just picked up the delina dupe!! I have like 7 samples of delina and I want the full size eventually but covered in roses + my samples will last me lol
I bought a backup of Covered in Roses last week and it smelled different compared to the one I bought earlier in the year? The packaging is slightly different as well, I hope they’re not making things that are lesser quality already….
loved the video!! you mentioned that there's something offputting in vanilla vice and i TOTALLY agree! i was so excited to try it and i was super let down because the smokiness has a sharp, almost chlorine-like scent to me 😭
@@perfumerism that's my best bet since i'm not tooooo familiar with orcanox, but i haven't noticed it in the few other fragrances i've tried that have it 🥲 oh well it is what it is
Floral Fantasy identical to Flowerbomb and Petal Parade same as Prada Paradox. Those are my go to. The OG Paradox is weird with my body chemistry but Prada Paradox Virtual Flower is beautiful.
I had been super curious to try these when they came out but my local b&bw have them yet. Watched this and immediately went to check again. I picked up covered in roses and if you musk! Floral fantasy was my third favorite but i thought it smelled similar like another b&bw scent I have called dark kiss. Less sweet though.
Pink Obsessed and Petal Parade smell the same to my nose and in a negative way. However, Covered in Roses is my signature scent now. I've been liking rose scents for a while now and Covered In Roses is my no. 1 now.
I have not smelled the collection you are reviewing, but per my experience with the BBW in the past, they have always had badly balanced sprays for ages. Men's line has been equally ridiculous. They all feel they are half-done and cheap. Your review motivates me to go to BBW now and re-evaluate all the fragrances there...
Thank you for saying that about vanilla vice 🥴 it smelled like someone scooped vanilla ice cream into booze and let it sit in the hot sun on me. Made me sick, which is sad because I LOVE the house.
Add vaseline or a lotion to extend longevity by a mile. Finery green bottles jungle and before the rainbow are ok, good bar and mix:bar has nice scents
I bought If You Musk a couple of weeks ago. I love it. It kept reminding me of something i own, couldn't put my finger on it....then i see your video. Not the same as GY, but same feeling (if this makes any sense)
Please don't ever stop being "harsh" or overly critical in your reviews. As brands/influencers continue to push new releases onto consumers, your honesty is invaluable and much appreciated 🙌🏽❤️

Covered in Roses does last long. I live in the Caribbean and heat and humidity usually causes body mists to sweat off or it disappears after a few mins but that one held on.
I’ve been layering covered in roses and delina. It’s a killer combo.
I can’t explain it but if you musk reminds me of being in Disney… it’s so cozy and nostalgic. I just want to put it on after a hot shower and jump in bed and nap.
To me If You Musk reminds me of when I was a kid and my family would come home from a long vacation and the house still smelled floral clean from before we left but still a hint of musky stagnant air, in a good way
Been waiting for this one, you’re the only one I trust with recommendations of dupes!!
To me, On the Horizon is spot on for MAC Turquatic. I don’t get Sailing Day much as that perfume has a salty ocean brine smell that I don’t smell in On the Horizon at all. I do enjoy both those fragrances though so either way, it’s a win win :)

I recently learned that perfume oils actually don't last as long as regular perfumes because the alcohol in regular perfumes act as a preservative.

Covered in Roses has been my signature scent and because I wear it most of the time, one mist will only last for only two weeks. I have one on-hand so I have to order a lot from resellers.
I just regret that during it's first sale I just bought like 4 of them and they take a long time to arrive because I'm in the Philippines.
It’s also took me a few years to appreciate Prada Paradoxe but man do I love it now. It’s sooo pretty and feminine and sweet. The neroli and vanilla are right up my alley. And I have to be careful not to overspray cause it’s potent ❤😂😊
The drydown of Viva Vanilla is, to my nose, identical to Ariana Grande Mod Vanilla. Viva Vanilla, however, opens with a horrendous blast of black pepper. After that dissipates, it is a spot-on dupe of Mod Vanilla.
I'm not a huge fan of either of them, because I think the fruity plum note is incongruent with the super musky vanilla base. I also think the vanilla smells cheap and thin.
The more recently released B&BW fragrance Vanilla Romance is in the same realm as both of them, but far superior, in my opinion. Instead of plum, there is an aromatic, camphoric cardamom note. The vanilla is richer, almost like vanilla extract, and it's less musky and more woody. Can't get enough of it! Beautiful from opening to drydown.

Nice opinions & images comparing the perfume to the bbw dupe. Pink obsessed smells so close to VDBIR & I love that perfume. Do a review on the BIR collection. I just got the green stravaganza & enjoy it. The new gold perfume came out & would like to hear your opinion.

What I get from this is I definitely want Viva Vanilla, Floral Fantasy, If You Musk, Covered in Roses... And maybe Lost in Santal. These are going on my wishlist next time B&BW has a sale as I just missed the last one and have a few body mists to go through before buying more. 😅
Edit: I wasn't a huge fan of Prada Paradox either but I think I'll add Petal Parade to my wishlist too. 😊
My favorites are Covered in Roses, Viva Vanilla and Floral Fantasy. So much so that I drove to a few different stores to smell the perfumes that they're dupes for because I was afraid that if BBW discontinues, I'd have to buy the more expensive perfumes. Oh Cherry was the scent that made me even care about this collection but I was the most disappointed with that one. I probably get around 4 or 5 hours out of my favorite ones and On the Horizon so I'm not even mad about that for how cheap they are
Was sooo excited to see you were making a vid about this!
ooh yes!! please do a video on valentino donna BIR and its flankers!
Out of the ones I've tried thus far, Viva Vanilla is an absolute BEAST! The one I would wholeheartedly recommend out of the entire collection; whereas the others are YMMV.
I have both the Born in Roma (I love) and the Pink Obsessed is exactly the same, in my opinion. I recognized it immediately when I smelled it in the store without knowing what it was supposed to be a dupe for.
Additionally, I was told by someone in BBWs that Petal Parade was supposed to be a duplicate for Good Girl. I've never smelled the Prada one, so I'll have to see but it does smell like Good Girl.
I also loved Getaway Soiree.
Good review!
It’s definitely good girl and paradox had a baby. Even gives a bit of Giorgio Armani My Way.
Oh my gosh I have so many nostalgic memory’s from water world. I don’t live there anymore but you brought me back with that comment
I have a crazy video suggestion haha, to find dupes for Hilary Duff With Love and Wrapped with love perfumes. (Cheaper options and luxury ones too if possible).
Haven't found anything like it, and is such a good perfume!
Thank you for this video! Very detailed and I trust your judgment ❤
I just made a video that might be helpful! It’s called “how to find a dupe for anything”
ahh I just picked up the delina dupe!! I have like 7 samples of delina and I want the full size eventually but covered in roses + my samples will last me lol
I HOPE YOU LOVE IT
I bought a backup of Covered in Roses last week and it smelled different compared to the one I bought earlier in the year? The packaging is slightly different as well, I hope they’re not making things that are lesser quality already….
I hope not. I bought a few backups as well. I’m going to have to compare them to first batch.
loved the video!! you mentioned that there's something offputting in vanilla vice and i TOTALLY agree! i was so excited to try it and i was super let down because the smokiness has a sharp, almost chlorine-like scent to me 😭
Yes!!! I wonder if it’s the orcanox? It’s so weird?
@@perfumerism that's my best bet since i'm not tooooo familiar with orcanox, but i haven't noticed it in the few other fragrances i've tried that have it 🥲 oh well it is what it is
Apparently if you musk is a dupe for their kaleidoscope, which was similar to glossier you.
more content around cheaper perfumes!
I went out and bought Covered in Roses because of this. It really does smell like Delina...I hope it stays good for a year
Floral Fantasy identical to Flowerbomb and Petal Parade same as Prada Paradox. Those are my go to. The OG Paradox is weird with my body chemistry but Prada Paradox Virtual Flower is beautiful.
I had been super curious to try these when they came out but my local b&bw have them yet. Watched this and immediately went to check again. I picked up covered in roses and if you musk! Floral fantasy was my third favorite but i thought it smelled similar like another b&bw scent I have called dark kiss. Less sweet though.
I'm in shock also I had to tell the sales rep in Saks 😂😂😂
If you musk is great and so is Glossier You❤ love them both
Pink Obsessed and Petal Parade smell the same to my nose and in a negative way. However, Covered in Roses is my signature scent now. I've been liking rose scents for a while now and Covered In Roses is my no. 1 now.
Muchas gracias por este vídeo! Te empecé a seguir hacer un mes aproximadamente, y me encantan todos tus vídeos he aprendido demasiado! 💝
I have not smelled the collection you are reviewing, but per my experience with the BBW in the past, they have always had badly balanced sprays for ages. Men's line has been equally ridiculous. They all feel they are half-done and cheap. Your review motivates me to go to BBW now and re-evaluate all the fragrances there...
My goodness! These are good! Sprayed both the Vanilla & Musk on 12 hours ago and still smell on my arms! These 2 are very long lasting on me.
Thank you for saying that about vanilla vice 🥴 it smelled like someone scooped vanilla ice cream into booze and let it sit in the hot sun on me. Made me sick, which is sad because I LOVE the house.
I would not replace covered in roses with my delina perfume but I would replace it with the hair mist.
I absolutely love bath and body works fine fragrance mists 👍❤
Omg you have a youtube channel?! This is amazing i love your taste 🙏🏼💕
I love (almost) every one of these!
can you do a video like this but with all the target fragrances? i’d love to know your thoughts on those
Add vaseline or a lotion to extend longevity by a mile. Finery green bottles jungle and before the rainbow are ok, good bar and mix:bar has nice scents
We don’t have target in my country💔
@@perfumerism nooooooo
I bought If You Musk a couple of weeks ago. I love it. It kept reminding me of something i own, couldn't put my finger on it....then i see your video. Not the same as GY, but same feeling (if this makes any sense)
Absolutely gorgeous! I'd love to try it out😍
Delina is a masterpiece. Hope to get my nose on the dupe at my bbw. They did not have them in store this summer(online only).
I have lost Cherry and oh Cherry and I wear them together because they are really close. I put the lost Cherry on my skin and oh Cherry on my clothes
I bought Covered In Roses last week. Although I hate roses, I don't mind this one, and I would never pay $$$ for Delina, so Covered in Roses it is😂
Viva Vanilla is inspired by Byredo's Vanille Antique. ❤ It's an identical body mist version.
Going to try Covered in Roses, Petal Parade, and Pink Obsessed. I also have a body chemistry that disagrees with Glossier You.
