Message of the day: don’t settle for anything! If it’s not a heck yes it’s a heck no! 💕 #mycurrentmood Also, I have to reiterate what a gorgeous scent especially the Watch is; it’s not my cup of tea but that doesn’t mean it isn’t someone else’s! 💕 😊
Yes to this entire message. I also started buying perfumes in February/March and i have waaaaayyyyy more perfumes than I can really wear, and many that are just "good" to me, not great loves. So I have started to gift and giveaway, and also I will be starting a Macari Page to sell some of them at a discount. I genuinely love trying new perfumes, but my taste has already changed since I started trying them out. And decluttering perfumes has inspired me to get rid of clothes, shoes, and bags that I just never wear or use anymore. It might seem like a waste of money, but at this point it just makes sense and means more to me.
I completely agree about decluttering fragrances that you are just trying to use up, while not wearing the ones you truly love!! I am going to take a hard look at some of mine that I should let go... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love your view on life! Do it now because later isn’t promised. Brava to you! I used to save things for those special events, now I treat everyday like a special event. This has done wonders for my psyche ☺️
I really really appreciate how honest you are in this video, the fact that you got it gifted this from them and Its a big deal they are an amazing company and still was so honest about what you thought makes me trust your video on a completely different level. Really enjoy this video. I just bought two perfumes from you from poshmark, I had no clue that you had that but since you are so honest I couldnt resist
Thank you so much! Oh wow thank you as well for purchasing them!:). Yes I feel I must be honest because otherwise my recommendations would be lacking credibility.:)
You’re so honest that’s why I really trust you! And I totally agree with you...life is too short! You never know how much time you have left..so, do the things which make you happy 😊
I love your videos you’re literally the best!! 😩❤️ I relate to how you said you’ve been collecting more since lockdown, I’ve been the same don’t know why 😂 I guess everyone is just trying to find their happy place
I remember a comment you made about receiving criticism regarding your declutter and clean with me videos. This comment is not meant to be rude (and I hope you don't take it that way) and I do love watching your videos. I have a suggestion, maybe in between declutter and clean with me videos, you can talk about different topics such as get to know me tag, craziest stories heard at the hospital (with confidentiality applied to clients), etc. to switch things up
Very happy to see another great Video from you🤗🧡 wow, Micallef Sounds sooooo Good, wanna get my hands on it next year😍I declutter my scents i don’t like too, i also think Life is too short and I wanna feel good with my scents on me😊❣️🌸🌲also love declutter videos👍🏻
Hey girl! I'm strongly considering glamour (mainly because it's been compared to Rouge Malachite). Have you smelled Rouge? Do you think they share any similarities?
@@thesimplechiclife thanks for insight! I find alien to be quite soapy/clean on my skin, do you think glamour has that same soapy quality or not so much?
It's so important to stay true to ourselves, you're doing the right thing! 👍 Taste evolves, and we want to discover and try new things. I think it's kind of a trial and error experience. We get to know what we really like (and love) and there's nothing wrong with that! People appreciate you for your honesty and your authenticity Ilythia 💕💕
Might I suggest buying samples or decants instead? More cost effective and you still get to enjoy the high of blind buying if you crave it :) You have featured 136 decluttered perfumes on your channel, 114 of which are full bottles that have about 90-97% remaining juice each. These are only the featured ones. Your wallet might not hurt by purchasing full bottles, but it will thank you so much for purchasing decants or samples instead ♡
@@thesimplechiclife enjoy! I've been a fraghead for several years now, and that is what really helped me satiate my thirst to explore new frags without the guilt of letting them go if they turn out to not be 10/10 for my skin :)
Have you tried the other SJP Lovely parfumes? I think she has 3 different ones..I just got a sample of the new Valentino Vivo (Lady Gaga) and I agree with you - it is nothing special and smells very generic. I also got a sample of Tiffanys edp. Love it for the day time and it is sooo elegant. Have you tried it? Also the Tiffanys love & co is good, a bit more sweet than the original.
Okay I was in sephora 2 days ago saw the 7 virtues vanilla woods thought of you tried it out and had to buy it..😊 Lovely is next... Really enjoy your videos...
I love the Micallef couple I follow them on instagram and they seem like such wonderful people in real life! I’m hoping I can find a micallef for myself as I love florals. I feel like what you described might be up my alley! Shame they’re hard to come by second hand here in Australia..
Your so good at decluttering.. I try to declutter and it’s so hard for me to get rid of stuff 😂 but I’m getting better. Your videos help me get the motivation to be more Minimal and to declutter more!
How come that you have acquired so many perfumes since March! This is translated into a small fortune! The bottles from Mikalef are really stunning and very luxurious! I agree with you on Coco mademoiselle the OG. It's so classy and elegant. I think the OGs are most of the times the best ones. A good idea would be to include SJP in my wish list. Thanks🌹🌹!
The Micallef perfumes are gorgeous shame they weren’t an absolute love. Maybe layering Kayali Musk with Watch to help balance it out. Appreciate your honest review!
You said that you love oriental and woody fragrances. Have you tried Midnight Amber Oscar de la Renta? I've got it, but it's not to my taste. I do not like the opening, but love the drydown. At the beginning I smell a red wine in a wooden barrel. I think this fragrance is excellent for layering, but do not know which perfume would be ideal with MA. I tried, but so far it did not work. I need a fragrance that would overpower the opening of MA.
Hello! I have always been passionate about perfume since I was little, but I started my collection from confinement .. weird .. maybe in this dark period the only comfort I find is in the perfumed, soothing scents what does the perfume get .. do you have a vinted account to resell some of your perfumes ?? I am French so we only have (to my knowledge) vinted .. thank you for your video!
I agree - I also started to get into perfume due to COVID, one day I went to buy and they had everything locked up so I had no choice but to start researching and buying blindly and it became a hobby. I sell privately or on instagram. I am also on poshmark poshmark.ca/closet/ilythiamarie
@@thesimplechiclife thank you for your answer! .. I am also a subscriber to your instagram account, I can not wait to expand my collection, why not thanks to the perfumes you want to resell 🤗🤗... I have also bought a lot of perfumes blindly .. the best in my opinion is the "la yuqawam jasmine wisp" by Rasasi ... for me it's the best and yet reading his notes I did not expect this .. it's fabulous, and cheap this which is shocking .. thank you for your videos😘 !!!
Don't know about others but holding on to the things that I don't use makes me guilty and decluttering those gives me relief. By the way I was just wondering if you got rid of tiffany and co intense 😉 last time didn't see it in your collection.
Me too! Unfortunately I dropped the Tiffany intense and broke the atomizer. At the time I didn’t realize I could decant it somehow, so I sold what was left of it to someone. I am tempted to bring it back. It was such a beauty just expensive!
I said goodbye to Chanel 5 eau premiere. The aldehydes was headache inducing and the powdery scent is too congested for my taste. I sent it back. But the bottle was definitely pretty. The original Chanel 5 seems to be better than the eau premiere that has more vanilla at the dry down. Love your vanity tray 🥰
I don’t know what with.Your more the expert. I do love how they engraved your name. Also I understand the D clutter I do it to. It’s funny how 2020 has seen my daughters ones obsess over different material to Sow with the other has gone mad buying make up, and everything like that.I’ve turned to perfume.
I like declutters because I like to know why someone wants to no longer have a scent as that may give me an opinion on if I want to buy that fragrance. The only thing I have about perfume declutters nowadays is that they are always for the most part the same reason, bc I have being buying too much and I don't want so much. I believe this behavior encourages consumerism in a negative way. I prefer to see someone actually buy a decant and test the fragrance if that is what they want to do for viewers than buy a whole bottle and then no longer want it. My humble opinion.
I guess we could make that argument for many other things too like kitchen appliances, clothing items, and other non-essential things that accumulate in the home. This is really the only area that I splurge or over purchase in. I don’t have nick nacks or random things in my house, everything either serves a purpose or is an item that brings me happiness. I don’t even have mainstream television. I have also had bad luck with decants before leaking on me before arriving and it’s such a pleasant experience opening a bottle. I also make sure they go to good homes, and in turn I’m allowing someone else to buy a perfume they love at an affordable price, so it helps others out. It’s not like I’m tossing them in the garbage 😊.
I should add, I also feel the same way you do about makeup gurus who have endless drawers of eyeshadow - which none of us need. But I don’t say anything because each person does their own thing and I can only do what makes me happy. 😊
I envy you! It's just amazing that you can afford it all which is amazing to! Plus u keep and declutter which is good! But I couldn't do it I would keep them all. But I can't afford anything right now! I'm going through health problems right now and been off work for awhile so things are tight. I do what I can. I do know that I need back surgery really soon. I would love to have anything u have it's just amazing!
The fact that you had to explain yourself in the intro is so sad to me. Now that I’ve started collecting fragrances I’m sure I will de clutter at some point. I love your de clutter videos. Thank you for being honest as well with your reviews. One of the many reasons we love your channel.
thank you for that. yes unfortunately I have learned that I have to do a disclaimer of some sort because there is usually a negative nancy somewhere who makes some unsolicited rude comment about my choices lol. :) oh well! such is the public eye. Most people are wonderful. And thank you!
Lol...you're a perfume reviewer and you need to purchase a lot so we can have the fun of watching your videos. If people feel unhappy about your de-cluttering, then they don't have to watch your channel......

I already did ,I decluttered more than 12 perfumes . To make a space to new lovely ones. 🥰
Yessss:) best feeling ever!!:)
And why we have such an array of fragrances to choose from
I would love to meet a perfume addict near me to exchange our fragrances. Of coarse, not now. I live in Bouctouche, NB.
The consistent uploads!! What did we ever do to deserve you?
I agree. Life is too short. I only wear fragrances that I love or really like.
Who would've thought coco noir outlasts the others in your collection 🤣
I personally love the declutters.
You're so consistent, and super relaxing to watch! Great video :)
I love your advice...simplicity is soooo endearing and beautiful. I am in a minimalistic point in life..Great intro!
Thank you:) 💕

Hi, how are you satisfied with Glamour from M. Michallef? Does it last long and how does it project?
Very happy to see another great Video from you🤗🧡 wow, Micallef Sounds sooooo Good, wanna get my hands on it next year😍I declutter my scents i don’t like too, i also think Life is too short and I wanna feel good with my scents on me😊❣️🌸🌲also love declutter videos👍🏻

Hey girl! I'm strongly considering glamour (mainly because it's been compared to Rouge Malachite). Have you smelled Rouge? Do you think they share any similarities?

Sell them on poshmark, Depop, gift to friends or family or just plain Facebook marketplace!
Yes!! This content!! Never clicked so fast 😂

So far the Ylang in Gold has been my fave!:)
Did you sell that Chanel 5? How do we find you on poshmark?
its in the description box of all my videos now but also poshmark.ca/closet/ilythiamarie
Have you had the White Tea perfume by Elizabeth Arden? It's really bomb!! 😊
No I haven’t lately!! I think some years back. I’ll have to revisit:)
