Ah ah, I didn't know these were your fav 3!! Thanks so much Sebastian! You've been one of the very first to be interested in my creations since I launched the first ones! Thanks for your continuous interest and curiosity ❤️
I love those three too. But I would have to add the new Tyger Tyger and Sex and the Sea Neroli for a top five. I also dig Under My Skin. I guess I’m a Francesca junkie.
I refer to her as "The Indelible Francesca Bianchi." She is an original and her perfumes reflect that and do so beautifully and without apology. I love that. I am also glad you mention SATS "Neroli," which I love. My dad used 4711 and I hated it. Anything that reminds me of that, such as TF's Neroli Portofino just smells like nails on a chalkboard. But SATS Neroli shines so bright and with such originality, it's knee-buckling. GREAT VID, as usual! Love The Dark Side and Under My Skin too.
After a lot of research I blind bought the Dark Side. Best decision ever! I have since bought Under my skin and Sex and the Sea Neroli based on sampling but still... the Dark Side seems to suit me! On me it’s a beautiful leathery buttery iris and I just...🖤 I’m trying to convince myself I don’t need sex and the sea as well. We’ll have to see how that conversation goes 🙈😉
Hello, can you tell me more about the dark side, because it interests me too, but I was afraid it had an animal side, leathery and smoky like the others
I just purchased Tyger Tyger after getting a sample at LuckyScent. It wouldn’t be my typical “signature” fragrance. It’s a peach-y soapy scent, and I couldn’t stop smelling myself. I’m addicted!!
Very original fragrances! Warm and addictive. My top 3: 1. Sex and the sea neroli 2. The dark side 3. Sticky fingers. Thank you Sebastian for another great video
I love Francesca Bianchi fragrances! My faves are The Black Knight, Lost In Heaven, Under My Skin, The Dark Side and Sticky Fingers. I think everyone should check out her fragrances, bc even if they aren’t your taste, they are very well done.
Incredibly potent little gems. I’ve just started exploring them. My favourite is Under My Skin and I also love Lost in Heaven. Im super curious about them all to be honest… Tyger Tyger, The Dark Side, Sex and the Sea and Angels Dust are ones I’m super interested in :)
Got a sample set a few months ago...still haven't purchased a full bottle...still haven't decided...but I must admit the originality and lasting power... ridiculously strong and original.Only for experienced noses,and fragrances to be worn for yourself...most of them are not crowdpleasers...if any..
Really enjoyed your descriptions of these fragrances and that u mentioned them having a common DNA. Ive not tried any yet but have been wanting to try them. Angel's Dust, Sex and The Sea/Neroli, Tyger Tyger and The Dark Side are def some ive been wanting to try to name a few. Also ive seen Francesca Bianchi in some videos and some posts on Facebook and she seems really down to earth, intelligent, creative, very nice and just cool! Thanks Sebastian. Hope all is well. - Colin
I just got Sex and the Sea recently and wow....words fail me. This perfume is like nothing I have ever smelled. Its powerful, but the combination of accords is amazing. "adventurous" is a good word. I love the pineapple and anti-beachy notes in this (hard to explain). I almost got the neroli one but I am told its high in coconut, not sure if its for me. I got a great price on this and its well worth having this one. Not for everybody for sure.
@@andrewbrown4753 No, I think you should try to get a decant first. Its very unusual and the animalics and the "dusty" pineapple are so different. I have always enjoyed strong bold unique compositions but I know not everyone does.
Amazing Francesca Bianchi I would love to try Sticky Fingers as Sebastian mentioned his favourite. I bought some samples and they are really good very strong like in the 19th century. I found in an antic shop old perfumes well preserved in the darkness of a wood box and they smell very similar to Francesca Bianchi perfumes... For me they are like the perfumes of an alchemist. Highly recommended!!!!! Best regards Sebastian from Vienna Austria
It was between sticky fingers today or the new kilian liqueur collection 2021 apple brandy on the rocks and I had to go with sticky fingers as I’m a beast mode strong long lasting scent kind of person and unfortunately what I’ve read on kilian is they create beautiful scents but unfortunately they lack in strength and longevity and for this reason I have yet to own one kilian in my collection what do you think
Wow, looks like our favourites aligned on this one. I have these three too and the SATS Neroli from the house. Gorgeous creations. Very unique and interesting. Thanks, Seb
I discovered Francesca Bianchi's fragrances last year. My no. 1 is also Sticky Fingers, on the 2nd place is The Dark Side and the 3rd is Under My Skin. Haven't tried Tyger Tyger yet.
I love you as soon as I watch your videos I go straight to fragrantica and read up to know more!! Thanks!:) I love seeing info you give on unisex fragrances
I think Francesca Bianchi makes masterpieces. Even a perfume of hers does not work well on me, I'd still collect it. Tyger Tyger and Angel Dust sound great to me.
Awesome video, as always. We have the same favourite!!!!!! Sticky fingers - I also like to say the name of it when I'm asked what I'm wearing,. it's so cheeky! Great descritpions as always. You got me screaming "patchooouuuuliiii and Sticky fiiiingers as if I were on a game show!
Great reviews and totally agreed on those prominent DNAs.. My Fav is Sticky Fingers, Sex and the Sea, Lost in Heaven.. Tyger Tyger is good too but kinda too peachy fruity for my liking☺️
Great review as always Sebastian. Unfortunately I haven't been able to test a fragrance from Francesca Bianchi yet. But my favorite would be Sex and the See 👍. Many greetings from Germany
Thank you Sebastian. I've finally begun to experience Francesca Bianchi myself (got some samples) and I agree with what you say about these fragrances. They are so unique and special, they are art. Each one takes you an a fascinating journey... But, argh! I can not decide for which one to pull the trigger and get a full bottle! It's kinda a draw between Sticky Fingers and Dark Night (and also Under My Skin). I usually have my issues with patchouli, but in SF? Oh man, who would have thought?...
I don't know if these fragrances are really to my liking because I don't enjoy animalic notes so much, but from all of them, Sex and the sea seems the only one I'd probably be interested to smell/try out. Edit: I've managed to try out all of them a few weeks ago, even the new released Luxe calme volupte and in the end I bought The dark side and Tyger Tyger. I also liked Under my skin and the new one I've mentioned above, but the rest were just too intense for me.
Hi Seb, I caught here. I have all the profiles of these fragrances. For Dark side- I have Hayari Paris Only for him, for Sex and the Sea I have Carner Barcelona Costarela, I generally do nor like honey, but bought Man made sweet tobacco for tobacco. May be I will search for other videos on this.
Ooo I've been really excited to try some things from her! Luckyscent now carries her stuff so I have in my cart Sex and the Sea, the dark side, lost in heaven, and sticky fingers! They sound awesome, the sex and the sea Neroli sounds really interesting too neroli is a favorite note of mine.
I've been watching Maite and Amina Smells Fragrances and they love FB offerings. It is my intent in the very near future to grab a sample pack of these jewels. I love the way you described all of the fragrances and Patchouli is one of my all-time fav notes in a fragrance as well. It just adds so much body IMO. I tend to gravitate more to the oriental side of fragrances, so these are right up my alley. I'd definitely be interested in Sticky Fingers for sure. Another great review sir!
Brilliant review! Haven't enjoyed one so much in ages. I love FB! I told her that I consider her to be the Grenouille of perfumer's. She's amazing! And so are you for reviewing her :)
Uh, Sex and the Sea sounds great. Summerish and tropical. Since I live in Croatia, I'm looking for a summer signature fragrance to rock on the coast of Adriatic sea. Ambergris, Coconut and Vanilla, its right down my alley. for sure. Big hi from Croatia, stay safe people!
Sebastian you introduced me to The Dark Side and have been a fan. I have Sex, and The Dark Side. Curious about Sticky Fingers and Tyger Tyger. Thank you for video.
I wanted to love Francesca Bianchi's fragrances but my first purchase was Under My Skin and it irritates my skin. It leaves me with a rash on my neck, inner elbow or wrists. So disappointing. I've turned to spraying it on my clothing but I don't think it produces the same effect.
Hi Sebastian thanks for the best video as always, need some guidance on the SATS OR THE SATS NEROLI, as in my place, only SATS NEROLI is available only and I don’t mind as long I have all the SATS first one and on top neroli and petit grain so kindly advice , need help here please anyone who see this message and have an answer for this question, secondly how is under my skin ??
Dark Side sounds right up my alley. Would love to win a bottle. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to smell anything from the house but maybe I'll win.
Thanks, Sebastian! Great video and advice. I want to get Francesca Bianchi's Discovery Set. Thank you for the giveaway, as well! I discovered Indie Houses in 2020, and found them to be great values. I think that Francesca's 30 ml bottles of an extrait de parfum concentration are outstanding values!
2:00 #3 The dark side - oriental spicy, honey 4:50 #2 Sex and the sea - oriental floral, coconut & pineapple 7:42 #1 Sticky fingers - spicy leathery, patchouli & butter 11:50 Tyger Tyger - oriental floral 13:35 Sex and the sea Neroli
I got a sample of sex fragrance and it made my inner elbow burn. it was so weird there was so much heat but the first time I tried it on the back of my hand it didn’t do that
Oddly enough there is a fragrance reviewer fro Portugal that speaks high of this house. And the 3 you covered are the 3 I most want to sample but I cannot find a USA distributor that carries this house.
@@Ljmac03 no worries 😊Sebastian did mention that but you may have missed that part. Ordering direct from her website is great too. Over a certain amount is free shipping internationally and she offers two free samples if you buy a bottle, so I'm gradually working my way through them. I think she and her perfumes are awesome!
A week ago I experienced sex and the sea . Oh my God , amazing. I feel its an all year round fragrance warm for winter and tropical for summer. Just masterpiece

Hello m8
@@RichMitch Hey Duck. Hope you're well bud.
@@CK1da I am, I hope you are too 🙏🙏🙏
Just tried Sticky Fingers. It smells like a combo of all my favorite oriental perfumes. I love it.
I have under my Skin and the Darkside. I really love them. I tried Tiger Tiger but it was to Tuberrose heavyfor me.

Need to explore more about this house.
Thank you so much.
My favorites are Under My Skin, Tyger Tyger & Sticky Fingers, of course. ✨
Sticky fingers seems to by my favorite. Thamk you for your generousity
I would totally recommend you try The Black Knight,
it’s one of a kind vetiver fragrance. A stunner.
You and Jus De Rose put me on Francesca Bianchi. I want Under My Skin, The Lover’s Tale, and Lost In Heaven
Don’t make a blind buy on those, get the discovery set first

Im buying one of these three very soon. I have been very intrigued about these fragrances...
I love Francesca Bianchi 's perfumes, they are great and sooooo persistent! From the 6 I tried, my favourite is Angel's Dust, followed by Tyger Tyger!
I can totally lucite myself wearing The Dark Side that sounds so yummy 😊

11:50 Tyger Tyger - oriental floral

Is the castoreum used genuine castoreum?
Byzantine Amber by FB is gorgeous - rich and complex.
I have not tried any. Now I am intrigued. Thanks for such good review.

Does the dark side perfume have an "animal" side ??? I am interested in it but the strong animal fragances put me off ...
Enjoyed the Vid. I’m Going to try and check them out . Thanks ✌🏻

What you prefer sex in the sea original vs neroli
Hallelujah, Baby 😁
Would you say Sticky Fingers smells like Psychedelique and the Dark Side like Absolue pour le Soir?
The first sort of the second no!

Bianchi's perfumes are art but they are not the ones for someone who likes to shower three times a day.
I absolutely adore the new one, tyger tyger! And I also own sex and the sea ❤️
I havent tried any from this house so any of them
Very curious...
For me:
Black knight
Sex and the sea
Sticky fingers
Does she have a sample set?
Most definitely!!
@@ThePerfumeGuy where?
I have a link to her website it should be on there. See the info box.

My guy Sebastian, wish you were my second dad
Gimme gimme gimme
I’m all ears!
Love sex and the sea . but not neroli
Sadly, they smell like some kind of wet animals to me.
