    This was such a great idea for a video-- I loved listening to you explain each entry into this list as you focused on your psychological reaction to each fragrance/prominent notes in each. Not many people in YT frag comm tend to reveal much in this regard. I know why (because many channels are commercial, fast paced and, forgive me, come off like energetic yet shallow infomercials). I really enjoy listening to genuinely engaged, erudite, curious, self-propelling enthusiasts simply talk about fragrances in the most idiosyncratic way they can. Memories, anecdotes, olfactory puzzles, passionate likes (and dislikes)...all that stuff rather than 'viral trends'. I think it's my age, perhaps. Ho! 😆😅

    Amy! My goodness, what a wonderful video. This is exactly what I come here for. The concept of protection and protective waters (and water!), these are things we have in common and it resonates deeply.
    Definitely woke up in a funk. Looking around my apartment and feeling overwhelmed by the cats and dogs, the hair, a bunch of things that cats knocked over, a cord that got chewed…with this many pets, there is a quality of serene organization and space that escapes me. It’s like I woke up on a farm but I’m city mouse.
    Anyhow, this inspired me to get right up, spritz myself (Liquid Diamonds by Viktor and Rolf, soapy, clean and almost clear musk and a tiny bit of spice) and start cleaning. Thank you for that! ✌🏻🕺🏼♥️

    I like a herbal/vegetable garden smell as these cloudy days drag on and make me feel blah. My favorite is Vilhelm Basilco & Fellini. I only had a sample, but it is on my wish list. A basil, tomato leaf & fig smelling thing. It's a reminder that everything's going to be ok. Summer is coming...🌞

    What a cool concept! I've been on the hunt for perfect Desert scents for years, specifically Sonoran/Mexican desert scents, which remind me of where I grew up. Not many fragrances utilize notes like desert sage, chaparral, copal incense, cactus, and even clay... so I'm always stoked to find them! Some favorite desert-y scents that make me feel protected are Solstice Scents' "Guardian" and "High Desert", and Fantôme's "Coyoacán", which has effectively become my dad's signature scent now. I've recently become obsessed with a scent called "Ummo" from the niche Mexican house Xinú -- it's a very "ritual" resiny tobacco-juniper scent that has this burning heat to it, like smoldering embers. It really is like a force field or a protection circle around me when I wear it.
    Love your videos! ♥

    Hi Amy! What a cool idea for a video! I love this and I know exactly what you mean about protective scents. A lot of Avon scents are comforting to me. They remind of being at my grandparent’s house, especially on Saturday night/Sunday morning while getting ready for church. Soapy or musk scents are so comforting to me. I love most, but Abercrombie 8 and Design are my all time favorites. They’re like the old pajamas you won’t get rid of, no matter the number of holes. Perfect and safe. Another I am loving is from Solstice. Farmhouse in Winter. I’ve been wearing it at night. It’s like eating spiced sugar cookies near the fireplace , maybe with the window cracked and you can smell the balsam floating through the coldness. I am obsessed! Lastly, I love fruity scents for wanting to get in gear and get things done. Soapy lemon scents, peach, grape, or candied strawberry scents. They all really lift my mood too. I use to love winter, but anymore-the gloom can really get to a person. As always, you’ve given me so many scents to look for. Love your channel so very much! Hope you’re doing well♥️

    • @savorsalvagescent2300

So beautiful. Thank you for your lovely post.
