Another great dupe for La Vie Est Belle is La Rive Queen of Life! It's so good. Pacifica Cherry Moon actually retails for $22 at Target! So you got a good deal.
I bought HB Deep Red. Love at first sniff when I got it, and I immediately ordered a backup bottle :) It's similar in scent profile to Dali Laguna. (imo, any way) I still wear Sand & Sable--still my favorite gardenia forward scent.
I just got rid of my dazzle because zara cherry smoothie is superior and lasts way longer for $25.00 i can see dazzle being good for layering if you want to add some cherry but it doesn't project enough. Longevity seems to be a problem for me with my cheapies so I just wear them around the house and to bed. If they can last at least 5 hours then I won't wear them out. Also I just subscribed to you 💕
I like Paris Hilton's Dazzle too, even more than Flowerbomb and La Vie Est Belle which both sit unused in my closet. Patchouli is a hard note for me to wear, but I do really like Dazzle. Also, my perfume eating skin does really well with this scent, it lasts longer than most of my much more expensive perfumes.
I love Bora Bora and Mambo by Liz Claiborne and I hope to always have them in my arsenal. Bora Bora is ginger and orange blossom delight with a touch of tuberose. Love!
Ok so always great!! So glad to see you on you tube! There are just so many fragrance reviewers now and they are not all created equally! Thank you for your personal and fun opinions on fragrances!
I have a bottle of deep red coming and I’m super excited to try it! Blind buy. I also have a few other cheapies coming I’m super excited for!:) love your consistency with videos lately ❤❤❤
What a great video! Thanks so much, was fun! I too have S.Dali’s Laguna and you’re right! There’s something a bit overwhelming about it… so what I’ve discovered is layering it over Chopard Casmir! If you have both, give that a try and lmk what you think. They both have very similar note but smell completely different. But when layered together… fantastic!
Love your vids! ❤ I think that Britney one is actually Rainbow fantasy.( I know theres so many 😂) Intense is a darker magenta color and has gold accents. Intense fantasy is probably my favorite flanker! So delicious 💯👌👌
Great video! You have me curious about the YZY fragrances. I have the Oscar Tropicale, and I like it a lot. It lasts a long time on me for an eau de toilette!💗
Thank you for your video!!! I dig your affordable suggestions, I got Selena Gomez on your recommendation and I loved it! Saving it for spring cause It's the end of fall now in Chile 💙💙💙
I love watching your chanel! You talk about such a big variety of perfumes, and it's always fun to find hidden affordable gems. Do you know anything about fragrances made by New Brand? They look to be fairly new, and they make dupes of well known designer perfumes, kind of like La Rive. There isn't much info on New Brand online. Fragrantica have a handful of their perfumes listed, but far from all, and only a couple have actual reviews. At the super low price point (in the vicinity of $10 +) for 3oz really cool looking bottles, I decided to get 2 to try, their dupes for Armani Code and Mugler Alien. Eyeing a couple of others if the first 2 are good.
@@thecuriousperfumer My 2 bottles came yesterday, and so far I am pleased with both. The scents are very close to the original, though I am not an expert. I am wearing one of them today, the Armani Code dupe. It's after 9 am and I sprayed it before 5 am, though I do spray on clothes because I am a chef and work in sometimes hot and humid conditions, so normally perfumes don't seem to last on me as long as I like. But so far I can smell it distinctly on me. I'm anxious to try others by New Brand.
I've got White Point on order because of you. It sounds so nice! I'm really looking forward to trying this line. I haven't tried Laguna but Alfred Sung Jewel seems along the same lines even if the two don't smell the same. I really like Jewel.
Have you ever heard of Tessori d'oriente? It's a very cheap Italian brand. In Poland you can buy their perfumes for between 4 and 7 $. I really recomend some of them, especially the one called Byzantium.
Do another please? Loved!! I have that Oscar. Nice. Need to touch up. Since he passed away they ha ve new fragrances that are nice but if you can find some of the older they are so feminine which is what he was known for. Enjoy!
I love this kind of perfume review. Just started perfume collection in 2020 and I have a number of beautiful, affordable scents. I have 5 guess fragrances but not Red. I don’t think you can go wrong with these goodies. Bora Bora sounds interesting. Thanks.
@@thecuriousperfumer I grew up wearing bora bora in high school and I recently smelled it, too vintage smelling now and mature for a girl in high school lol idk what I was thinking.
I liked my dis Lui Blanche right away, but was unsure if I needed it because I found it to be in the same vein of CK in2U, however I think this one lasts way better!
Bought some of ur suggestions and was very satisfied! Thank you...and White Point by YZY does smell like a scent I used in the past..the original Paris Hilton perfume!! Keep these budget videos coming!!💖😁
@@thecuriousperfumer I just ordered it I’m so excited so thank you :) Since you always rave about the la rive perfumes..do you have an opinion on the la rive in woman (dupe for Armani si)?
Do u think u can do a video on underated fragrances that many ppl don't kno about. Pleassee love ur channel would love to see more videos and maybe favorite summer perfumes too.
love your southern accent! would you consider saying the notes out loud when introducing the scent or listing them a little bigger? otherwise this is my first video and I love affordable scents!! 💕
I get straight up cherry medicine with that Pacifica Cherry Moon one. My marshalls has it on clearance for $6 because no one wanted it either. It might be the weather here in Washington 🤷♀️
Try it again if it gets really warm outside. I was outside last weekend (where it was 90 degrees with probably 60% humidity) and it was DIVINE! I'll try it this winter around here and see if it's super synthetic too.
Yes, to a sequel of under $25 fragrances. Just found you, and subscribed right away. Great video!
Awesome! Thank you! Be on the lookout for part 2! 😍
I agree
I've got YZY Double Diamond too! It projects like crazy and is a wonderful powdery scent! Great video.
Another great dupe for La Vie Est Belle is La Rive Queen of Life! It's so good. Pacifica Cherry Moon actually retails for $22 at Target! So you got a good deal.

Love deep red, very unique. I like it on its own and sometimes layer it with BBW Mad about you mist which gives it extra juicyness..
I just got rid of my dazzle because zara cherry smoothie is superior and lasts way longer for $25.00 i can see dazzle being good for layering if you want to add some cherry but it doesn't project enough.

Will do! Be on the l👀kout! 😍

I was SHOCKED by Bora Bora, my cousin kept telling me about it it and I finally grabbed it I
Ok so always great!! So glad to see you on you tube! There are just so many fragrance reviewers now and they are not all created equally! Thank you for your personal and fun opinions on fragrances!
Bora Bora is my favorite, it smells so good and longevity is a beast. It’s a Ross for 19.00 . Love it !
Thank you for the heads up on YZY Fragrances. I put everything they have available in my cart on Fragrance X.
Love this selection and would love to see Part 2! I have Guess Seductive Noir🖤and Red❤️ and I love them both! Noir is one of my faves!!🖤 TFS
I have a bottle of deep red coming and I’m super excited to try it! Blind buy. I also have a few other cheapies coming I’m super excited for!:) love your consistency with videos lately ❤❤❤
I hope you like it! Let me know your thoughts when you get it. I wasn't sure of it at first 🤔
I love affordable fragrances! Yes

Omg welcome back! How come I haven't been getting notifications?? Great list! These perfumes are right up my alley
Turn those notifications on!! 🥳
Yes part two please! 😃
What a great video! Thanks so much, was fun! I too have S.Dali’s Laguna and you’re right! There’s something a bit overwhelming about it… so what I’ve discovered is layering it over Chopard Casmir!

Bora bora was my very first perfume ever. Got it for my 8th birthday. Will prob buy it soon and try it again 😊
great video! i love how open you are to trying new fragrances! keep it up girl! 💗
I love all fragrances and I looooove exploring! 😍 Glad you liked it! Stay tuned for part II!
I've got my eye on that Calvin Eternity Intense! I haven't heard of this flanker but those notes are totally me.
Love your vids! ❤ I think that Britney one is actually Rainbow fantasy.( I know theres so many 😂) Intense is a darker magenta color and has gold accents. Intense fantasy is probably my favorite flanker! So delicious 💯👌👌

Ok, I HAVE to order the Tropicale now! *adds to cart* LOL!!
@@thecuriousperfumer the madness continues!😂
Yes to part 2 ☺️
Yes! I like trying new fragrances, but don't like spending a lot of money on the misses.
Thank you for your video!!! I dig your affordable suggestions, I got Selena Gomez on your recommendation and I loved it! Saving it for spring cause It's the end of fall now in Chile 💙💙💙
Oh nice!! Yes, I love that Selena Gomez. I wore a lot this spring actually! Be on the lookout for part 2!! 🥰
@@thecuriousperfumer I will!!! 💙💙💙
BS Believe is phenomenal. She has some gems
I really love the Fantasy Intense....have you tried it?
Yes! I love Deep Red! It's so nice and the price is great👌
Dazzle is awful on me but " Yes I am" is inexpensive and SCRUMPTIOUS raspberry milkshake creamy and soooo good 💗💗💗💗💗

I received my White Point and I love it! Such a soft, pretty, billowy fragrance. Definitely smells way more expensive than it is.

Yes! They are SO feminine! I love the 2 I have but the performance is not too great. Great bedtime scent though.
I have Guess Seductive Noir in the body spray and I love it.
I love guess noir

In2U is so masculine on me 😭 I'm about to declutter it
Just ordered both YZY recommendations, thanks!
Bought some of ur suggestions and was very satisfied! Thank you...and White Point by YZY does smell like a scent I used in the past..the original Paris Hilton perfume!! Keep these budget videos coming!!💖😁
Oh good!! Glad you are liking them!
Omg I was looking for a La Vie Est Belle dupe for the longest time so thank you ❤️
Ooooooo! You'll hit the jackpot with this one then!! 😍
@@thecuriousperfumer I just ordered it I’m so excited so thank you :)
Since you always rave about the la rive perfumes..do you have an opinion on the la rive in woman (dupe for Armani si)?
Lovely review and perfums greetings from the Netherlands
Do u think u can do a video on underated fragrances that many ppl don't kno about. Pleassee love ur channel would love to see more videos and maybe favorite summer perfumes too.
Absolutely! I recorded a couple of videos today that I’m editing. I’ll probably upload them either tomorrow or Monday. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@thecuriousperfumer thank so much. I would love that. Ur doing a goood job on ur channel. Keep up the good work. :)
Wow! Great line up. TFS
I used to love Noa Fleur years ago.
Oooo! I've never heard of that one!
I hope I can find Cherry moon by Pacifica I need to try it I love cherry 🍒 Scents, and yes I would love too see a part two
I’ve come so close to buying Laguna. Now I feel better about passing. I do love that bottle though.
You might like it but it's just a mess to me. It's on my declutter list!
Such great picks😻 I really enjoyed watching
There are some new perfumes on my list I have to try
New subbie🧡🧡
Thanks for subbing!
love your southern accent! would you consider saying the notes out loud when introducing the scent or listing them a little bigger? otherwise this is my first video and I love affordable scents!! 💕
Sure thing!
Great video!!!
Do you have Mercari for fragrances you decide to declutter?
I do have a Mercari account but haven’t listed anything in ages. I got burned pretty bad on there so I’m very hesitant to list there anymore.
@@thecuriousperfumer Ahh sorry to hear that. I understand. Thanks for responding! 👍🏾
Have you tried Guess Dare? (The double dare I hated) The regular Dare is really pretty easy reach perfume
Between the Guess and Paris Hilton, which would you suggest?
Hmmm....I think I would go for the Guess Red if it were me! 😍
I need to try that Guess one again.. ♥️
Thank you great review
Thanks for watching!
Love watching you
I'm curious to know if you've tried any of the J&H line? I ordered J&H in the White Tube for under $7 but I really know nothing about this line.
I have not....but it's interesting!
Are you familiar with Just Jack fragrances? They are not listed on Fragrantica. Thank you.
I have never heard of that house. Do you have any fragrances of theirs?
No not yet. I need to do more research. They are dupes of Tom Ford. They are made by the same company that makes Armaf fragrances
These don't last long snd also lean on the masculine side.
Thanks your sharing your video take care 😇
Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for sharing 7-12-2022😊😊
highly recommend you The Iceberg Fragrance,it has absolutely amazing nites of herbs and phistascio gelato♥️
Acqua Di parisis is better IMO lol so many of my favorites here! New sub here🤗😉
I agree with you! and welcome!! ❤️
I don't think you're alone not liking Laguna To me it smells as if Sol de Janeiro started making mosquito repellent! 🤣 It's Bug Cheirosa '66
I think you’re onto something! 😂
Did you mean that Deep Red resembles Hypnotic Poison??
I wouldn't say it's close to Hypnotic Poison
@@thecuriousperfumer just wondering because i got a slight Hypnotic Poison vibe.
Where did you go? We miss you!
I’m back! 🥰
Obviously I am late to the party....tried to buy Festive Fantasy or Rainbow fantasy by Britney and both are either $100 or nowhere to be found!
Keep checking FragranceNet. They get these in quite often but they sell out fast!
I also think Eau de Juice smells like Cloud and the purple one smells somewhat to Womanity for me.
I get straight up cherry medicine with that Pacifica Cherry Moon one. My marshalls has it on clearance for $6 because no one wanted it either. It might be the weather here in Washington 🤷♀️
Try it again if it gets really warm outside. I was outside last weekend (where it was 90 degrees with probably 60% humidity) and it was DIVINE! I'll try it this winter around here and see if it's super synthetic too.
@@thecuriousperfumer I will try that tip, thank you!!
Deep red is sexy! I have smelled it on somebody else and really like it! I bought it for me i will see how it works on my skin
It works well with my chemistry and doesn't come off as synthetic so I hope you have the same luck! It's a gem!
Off topic but I really love your accent!
Aw, thank you! ❤️
