    Culinary school? 😯 that's awesome!
    Ughh i hate it when I lose my fragrances to evaporation. Good to know about that fragrance bottle.
    And I totally agree with your point about when to return products! I used to work in retail and the thought about waste really breaks my heart.
    This was fun to watch, Tara! Thanks for sharing your responses with us. 🧡

    Great video, Tara. I've only returned 3 fragrances and normally felt guilty about doing that...except for once. I was at Nordstrom one day chatting with the Tom Ford sales assistant and was just casually telling her how I purchased Venetian Bergamot like 6 months prior and didn't really like it and she said "oh, just bring it back and we'll give you something else!" That's why Nordstrom will always be my favorite store!

    This is my first time watching your videos, and I gasped out loud when you mentioned wearing Nirvana Amethyst to bed. 🥰 I've never been that into fragrance, until very recently, so I only owned a few scents I loved -- and thats one of them. Never heard a TH-camr mention it!

    I do the diaphragm area, too! I was watching that new Dior documentary on François Demachy, and a women who owns one of the French jasmine farms contracted by Dior told a story about her grandmother putting jasmine flowers in her corset while dressing. Maybe spraying the diaphragm area with perfume is a modern (corset-free) version of that! How chic and French of us! 😉 💕

    Shocking how similar our wearing routines are. As for evaporation, it took 80% of the juice out of my SJP Stash bottle. 🤣 Literally felt like they packed it with propellant since the atomizer was always cold. No biggie. It's only alcohol that goes and what's left is a super potent syrup. 🧇 Couldn't agree more with the waste of materials bit Tara! 🌳

    • @Olfactofiles

    I’ve really been enjoying this tag, and any tag that just allows us to get to know everyone better.
    Fragrance that best embodies my current taste? Prada Amber Pour Homme. Resinous amber fragrance, but somehow also a soapy barbershop fragrance, while being a soft musky fragrance, all at once.

    Interesting, I like to know what motivates people. So you mentioned your makeup/foundation, which prompts me to ask: what is your lipstick? I always love your lipstick and think that I need that color. You seem to wear a cool pink-mauve often.

    • @Olfactofiles
      @Olfactofiles  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks! Yes, this is my favorite color of lipstick. It's Too Faced Queen B. It's a liquid lipstick so I usually only wear it one or two days a week so it doesn't dry out my lips, but it's lovely.

    Try a Berger Lamp in the house ... they are fabulous, especially if you like fragrance. So few people know about them, I own 4 at this point... check them out! I buy them as gifts as they’re so unique!
    I’m almost afraid to ask... why don’t you like samples from Luckyscent? I just put in a order yesterday that was $$$ due to shipping and taxes to 🇨🇦
    Such a great tag! 💞

    • @Olfactofiles
      @Olfactofiles  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! I'll look into those lamps. Never heard of them before! I don't like the samples from Luckyscent because they are tiny dabbers. I only get one full wear usually (maybe 2) and I feel like dabbers don't give an accurate representation of how the fragrance will perform if sprayed. I still order from them if I can't find samples of what I want elsewhere, but they are the last resort for me when it comes to samples.

    I like your answerson this tag by Emily.U often watch her channel.I find it really interesting.
    I just remembered that I happened to watch a _ not having bought things for a long period of time_ video if yours and I really admire that. Currently I'm trying to control my tendency to buy things.
    I also admire your speaking speed which sometimes leaves me breathless! I would like to ask you if you have been trained on very quick speaking and if so would you please give me any informationabout it?

    I figured we shared the similar taste in perfume because after I watched your review on Angles’ Share I went to the shop the next day and got it! I also got Roses on Ice as well because layering them together on me is divine.
    As you mentioned Iris in this vdo, I wonder if you tried Atelier des ors Iris Fauve and if you like it. I’m interested to get it but it will be a blind buy. Thx!
