    Many fragrances in my collection are vintage - Solely because I enjoy the journey each scent takes me on. They really don't make fragrances the same these days, If I should be completely honest. My favorite vintage fragrance in my collection is Elizabeth Arden Blue Grass. It was my paternal Gradmother's signature scent, and I wear it in honor of her since she passed before I was born (and it's such a beautiful scent). Other favorites in my collection are Tabu, Youth Dew, Coty Emeraude, Revlon Ciara, Jontue, and Halston. I ordered a bottle of Je Reviens this morning, along with Myurgia's Maja - so I'm definitely excited to have those classics in my collection!

      WOW! You have some truly VERY vintage fragrances! I have seen Blue Grass on websites like FragranceX.com and have been tempted to get it since it has a clove note. Is the clove very detectable? I love clove! Thanks for your comment...love hearing about your vintages!

    • @scentsofvirgomoon
      @scentsofvirgomoon 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@thecuriousperfumer When I wear blue grass, the lavender and aldehydes are the most prominent in the first spray. Those two create a powdery, dry, somewhat sweet blend. After that, it softens and the clove and carnation balance it out. It really settles into a scent I can only classify as a really nice vintage soap. Quite beautiful.
      Thank you for sharing your lovely collection! Looking forward to checking out more videos on your channel!

    Thank you very very much for posting this! I tend to collect vintage fragrance just simply for the sake of preservation... Of course I wear and enjoy many of them but some of them I don't think I've ever heard of ( and wouldn't EVER wear and probably most of us haven't or wouldn't LOL but they are nice little snapshots of what history was when those fragrances were produced and maybe even popular... Thank you again so so much! A great start to my day! Just as a quick little side note I still remember the commercial for Enjoli..." I can bring home the bacon, duh nah nah nant, fry it up in a pan, duh nah nah nant, and never never never, let you forget you're a man! ENJOLI !".... Too funny hahaha!

It's very unique and most people nowadays have a lot of trouble sitting through the top notes. They are very harsh but the dry down is worth it. Super long lasting too.

    • @thecuriousperfumer
      @thecuriousperfumer  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m pretty sure it depends on the quality of the fragrance to begin with. Over time, the top notes dissipate but sometimes, if kept in a cool/dark location and not disturbed much, it can certainly last 20+ years. My mom used to have one that was nearly 30 years old but it was an original Shalimar and kept in a cool and dark place. Shalimar would have comprised of quality oils and other ingredients vs a cheaper brand so it definitely still smelled just like Shalimar. So I guess it depends on several factors.
