You are absolutely right about Jimmy Choo fever. It's beautiful but very soft after about an hour on me. I remember hosting a party and finding myself going back in my room 2 or 3 times to respray. I love it. But man! The performance could have been better lol.
Hi Veronica, I remember that fragrance "Jimmy Choo" when I walked to the perfume store with my girlfriend a month ago. It is a good price and they offer discount price so I decided that time to buy for her. She was happy and asked permission to apply my neck from her hand. I don't know why, so I let her apply because I have to respect her happiness. She did it gently to press that liquid 3 times on my neck. This was the first time I experienced the scent of a woman. I will never forget it so I decided to share my story with you about what happened. Great video and peace!🙏
Ivan, this is a wonderful story to read that you share. You have a lucky girlfriend, and I give her a credit the way she is doing.🌹You must accept it the way she spray you, and then you will be fine. She's my hero 🥰
Girl, your video is outstanding. You have the charisma to highlight perfumes that nobody talk about it, and some perfumes I agree with you.❤Those perfume smell expensive but they are worth it.🌺I believe there are some discontinued. I appreciate for reviewing, and you never bored me.🤗🥰
Thanks for another great review and specially your real take on Minuit and Demie. It is indeed overpriced considering it doesn’t last. I have been eyeing the Tom Ford one.
I wanted to tell you that because of your glowing review, I got myself a big bottle of Givenchy Amarige and I have to say - I don’t think I have ever smelled anything so gloriously feminine 💗🌸 I am so in LOVE with it!! This is truly signature scent worthy, a perfume like they just don’t make perfumes any more. Thank you!!! Side note: when I was a girl, I wore Revlon Wildheart and I’ve missed it for years since it was discontinued - now I see that this is real deal inspiration for that silly drugstore juice 😊 It is also the closest dupe for the fragrance of Outrageous shampoo I’ve ever smelled so I’m happy happy!! Love your channel 🥰💜
Hi Luna Blue! 💖 Oh my goodness, thank you soooo much! I'm thrilled you love Amarige. It is such a special fragrance to me. Revlon Wlidheart? I've never heard of it - I'll have to Google images of it! I'm intrigued. 💖
Raised Spirits is similar to Minuet et Demi but not the same. MeD is much sweeter than RS. With RS you’re definitely getting the butter fudge. Both lack longevity imo. Maybe this fragrance profile is difficult to make last. Penhaligons Changing Constance is similar and also doesn’t last apparently. Thanks Veronica for your review!!
Hi Veronica! New subscriber here and I just love your videos. You highlight perfumes that no one else really talks about and I appreciate you for it. Speaking of, I have Tangier Vanilla D’Or and absolutely love it. Hidden gem for sure. Cheers!!
I agree with the Kyse bottles. That’s the only reason I haven’t purchased a bottle. I actually bought a bunch of samples a year ago but never went through with buying any for that reason. I wanted the peach yuzu one and the s’mores one.
LOL Clutch your pearls! I'm dead💀You have me interested in the Kyse & the Xerjoff the most. Great list and video, really enjoyed it, your humor and You❣❣
@@Danit.Talkscentswithme From Oklahoma but it is closer to Dallas, Texas where I shop. We did not had power for 2 days because of iced. I can't even sleep tonight.
I really like the Kyse perfumes .Delice Marshmallow. It’s so pretty. Smells lovely. I have their zucchero Filato cotton Candy scent aswell as a few others. Great Gourmands.
Hi Elissa! Many people LOVE Kyse! I've enjoyed some quite a lot (Cocco ala Vaniglia) and maybe not so much others. I'd love to try Zuccero Filato! I have some samples from a friend - I'll check if that one is among them. Thanks for watching! 💖🥰
Oh my word, you really crack me up even when you are not trying to do so😂😂. The way you described Shunkoin makes me want to have it as I’m attracted to tea scents🫖🫖. Atara went to a lovely home cos I think I wore it too much so it became super sweet for my liking🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. I absolutely love BO Parfum on hubby, it’s just so mysterious and mesmerising when he wears it😍😍. I have a decant of Minuit et Demi and I would love to get my nose on Raised Spirit, just have to make a plan on how to get it since they don’t ship to my side of the world… You really went all out in January😍😍. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰.
Hi Pinkie! Glad you enjoyed the video! 💖 I hope you get to try Shunkoin someday. It's really fantastic. Too bad Navitus doesn't ship worldwide. I wonder why? I can see how Atara might feel too sweet after a while. 💯
Yesss!! So glad you spoke about Au The Blanc - I’ve worn this fragrance for years - it’s gorgeous & so comforting. No one really talks about it. It’s a bit peppery too. Just loooove it 🤍
All the Bulgari The fragrances are beautify....I have the Bulgari The rouge and it's gorgeous but discontinued. Maybe because it's an eau, it's kind of an eau de cologne and isn't meant to last too long... The tea rouge is longer lasting. I want to try the the bleu.🤷♀️
@@nancyg323 it’s not meant to be a perfume so I know what you mean! I will always have the white - it’s so calming & clean I wear before bed in the evenings. Would have loved to try the Rouge! Maybe they will bring it back 🤞
I'm starting to like the tea note. I highly recommend you to try Vanilla Tea by Rirana, very on the vibe of the Bvlgari, it lasts about 4 hours on my skin, it's simply divine. I'm obsessed with it.
Hello Veronica, your aqua- turquoise look is so pretty! Love it! Thanks for another fun edition of your fragrance awards. I like that you mix up what you are wearing and that there tends to be a big variety of fragrances you enjoy. It's never boring! I just got one of my impulsive blind buy purchases in the mail today (those discontinuation rumours got to me...). I don't have any regrets (thankfully). It was the much hyped Baby Cat. I love it! But... I really do like perfumes with these rich, woody resinous notes. It's not a young girl's vanilla. It's very wearable and compared to some of the incense fragrances I have experienced, it's quite light. I would say for some, the cedar in the opening could be the most challenging aspect (I like cedar), but that fades fairly quickly as does the powdery quality that initially comes through. The dry down offers a sweet resinous almost burnt sugar quality in a grown up way. I am enjoying it. Living in the land of ice and snow, this is perfect for me right now. ❄️ I think I will be wearing it quite a bit in February. So not regrets on my part on this one. Have a super day! ~ Jenn 💛
Hi Jenn, thanks so much for the sweet words! 🥰💖 Okay, Babycat! Awesome! But wait, I don't think I know where you live. Ice and snow - Greenland? Northern Canada? Northern Scandinavia? I'd love to know! If you already told me, forgive me for asking again.
@@VeronicaSays Yes, it's Canada! I think I have mentioned it before. But you do respond to A LOT of comments and it would be easy to forget, especially because I don't have an image connected to my profile here (at least yet). 💛😆 ~ Jenn
Thanks for sharing some really good ones, I have skunkoin, when I watch you I want to buy something 1-31-2023❤️., you always look lovely arbasque perfume bottle is pretty & pricy also❤️, I was going to buy the Decant discovery set of Aerine fragrance but I brought the Jovoy discovery set from Maxaroma❤, Al Haramain I do not smell root beer but I love that also
Hi Marilyn! Thank you! 🥰💖 We gotta be careful watching videos. We'll be out here buying the entire perfume store! 🤣 So what do you think of Shunkoin? I'm curious. Also, anything from Jovoy striking your fancy? Let me know.
Hi Veronica, Small flower also sells Vanille Outremer. Molinard Vanilla Fruitee sounds so much like Jimmy Choo Fever. I bought it for Xmas, after getting sample. Its rich dried fruits and vanilla. Same from first spray to the end. Longevity is very good. I wear it to bed, and it lingers. Feel better soon.
Hi Francine, YES! Small Flower is where I purchased my Outremer bottles (online). Molinari Vanilla Fruitee sounds really good! And thank you! 🥰 I recovered from the cold, thankfully.
At 30:40 I think you have more Aerin fragrances than any of the other regular TH-camrs. Besides "The Perfume Guy" I have seen more fragrances in your videos than anyone else on TH-cam.
Aerin is am underrated line. Have you tried any? By the way, if you have a Cosmetics Company Store near you, many carry some of these fragrances on sale. It's the outlet store for Estee Lauder.
@@VeronicaSays All 3 of the deapertment stores at our biggest mall carry Aerin fragrances. I tried a Lily one in November and thought it was just OK. One new one that I really like is Bond 9 "Tribeca". I don't really like most of the popular Bond 9 fragrances such as Madison Ave, Nomad, or Gold Coast.. either their too "dated" too "strong" or to "bland".. but a few weeks ago I sprayed at tester card with Tribeca and forgot all about it until about 2 weeks later and WoW It's So Good and I love how it smelled. So.. I ordered a 100ml bottle a few days later.
I got Satine not too long ago. It's beautiful. I imagine that is what the ballerina from Swan Lake would smell like. Delicate, feminine, fluttery, gliding along....
@@VeronicaSays I was laughing because I had paused the video to comment, then within seconds after, you did the ballerina description, too! It just brings that to mind for sure :)
Applause, applause. Great award show. The gowns? To die for. ;) I'm intrigued by Knot Eau Absolue. Also really want to try Rogue. It has a lot of notes I don't think I've worn but they call to me. Satine? Crave city.
Hmmmm that Spirito Fiorentino sounds soooo good. Sounds like Florence...strong, independent, flowery but also leathery...I can so see why they chose those notes. I pictured Florence as you described it. I want to explore that house more, but they're a little pricey for me. Loved the video. Such interesting choices.🎉🎉
Florence from Swiss Arabian? Oh wow! I tried that one a while ago and just don't remember what it smells like so this is helpful. Thanks so much, Nancy G!! 💖💖💖
I have got to try "Raised Spirits", I love your monthly videos. I'm still in awe that it's February already😶 lol. Pretty soon we'll be thinking about Valentine's fragrances😂.
Raised Spirits is very pleasant. I just sniffed it again last night and was, again, surprised at how nice it is. 😁 Girl... where did all of 2020 go??? Soon I'll be filming fall and Christmas videos again. 😩🥴🤔
I really enjoy Tobacco Pod after taking your recommendation. I have since bought a travel spray of Divine Vanille, and they give me very similar vibes.
Can I first come clean and admit that I broke my “only four fragrances this year” rule and bought some cheapies! 🤦🏾♀️😂 I loved Saffron Lazuli and found out that Maison Alhambra had dupes for some in the line. I bought two, Exclusif Saffron and Rose. The Saffron is spot on and the Rose is so beautiful to me, though I can’t say how close it is to Burning Rose. You helped me decide that I didn’t need the tobacco right now. The Knot Eau Absolute sounds perfect, the way you described it is how the Twilly’s make me feel, clean but warm 😊 Great month as always, Veronica! 😊
Thanks so much, J! 💖 Shhhh, your broken no buy will be our secret! 😆 Sounds like you found some good ones. Knot Eau Absolue does have the "warmth" factor in common with Twilly! 👍👍👍
Hi! I m glad I discovered you! Congratulation on what are you doing! I m from Romania and I m so passionate about perfumes and I m waiting from Shunkoin now :) ....at your reccomendation :) .
I just tried Raised Spirits and Chocolate Queen. So glad you mentioned RS being close to Minuit et Demi because I couldn’t put my finger on it lol. Chocolate queen ended up being a creamy vanilla/maybe white chocolate on me vs a cacao or chocolate bar.
That’s really an amazing January month! I’m glad you’re enjoying rest spirits. It’s such a good one, I’ve been wanting to try venom of love and chocolate queen as well ❤
IMO the Vanille from Anthropologie is great for sweetening up fragrances and/or bringing forward more of the vanilla in a fragrance. Black Orchid is an acquired taste 😏. I’ve had my bottle since it came out and I literally cannot describe it to people…love it!
Hi Veronica! I found a fragrance called Tobacco and Tonka Bean by Banana Republic at Burlington and it's beautiful. It's a skin scent for sure but it's lovely.
The description of Shunkoin, to me, sounds like a cross between Gold Couture (from Juicy Couture) and Dior Addict with a hint of cherry. I could be way off but from all the reviews I've read, that's the picture I get.
@@VeronicaSays pretty. On my was vanilla + incense, period. Later on it developed a little more and the scent turned truly beautiful. Sillage on me is none and you have to hug me in other to appreciate the aroma. Duration on me less than 5 hours. I will try it again, I'll let you know. Turning the page, I also tried Rosendo Mateu No 7; well, it is my #1 in my "You Must Buy a Full Bottle List". It moved Atomic Rose to second place quickly (I have 4 10ml decanters of it 🤣, anyway)
I had no idea about Velvet Orchid’s “inspired by” story. That cracked me up. It’s not my favorite, but I get a ton of compliments when I wear it. I will have to share the origin story with those folks lololol. I agree about Bvlgari Thé White-so beautiful but so fleeting. All in that line are the same way, sadly. New subscriber here, love your channel!
Hidden gems & affordable fragrances that smell expensive are my favorite categories because those are ones that aren’t usually talked about. Lol when you said you don’t want to knock people out with a sexy fragrance, made me laugh, I said, yes, I do 😂♥️😝
Hi Veronica, Turqoise is stunning on you🤍🤍 Bottega Knot Absolu came in time, I am going to break my no blind buying rule this time and become rebellious😁 Tom Ford Black Orchid, yeh I was looking for the difference between the Black and the Gold bottle. Have a great weekend.
Hi Fatema, that gold bottle is THE FULL BUSINESS! So good. Potent too! If you can grab Knot Eau Absolue and like a clean but comforting fragrance, definitely try it out. 💖🥰
You’re one of the few TH-camrs I can sit and watch full videos of and not get bored!
Can't agree more😊
Definitely!
Same!
Same!

Yeah, wish it was stronger. Such a pretty fragrance! Love the party story! 🥰
I LOVE Black Orchid!!! It blooms on the skin, and is just stunning.
You are so right! It's a love for me! 💖💖💖
You’re hilarious in your descriptions, I’m always enjoying your videos 😊

Thank you so much, Richelle! 💖 I don't mind talking about discontinued perfumes as many are still available on discount sites. 👍👍👍
What's different? The angle? The makeup? The camera? I cant tell but you have a glow and awakened look fo your face/skin. I love it!
LMBO! I spent the shortest amount of time on hair and makeup. Very minimal look. 🥴🤣 Thank you so much though! 💖
@@VeronicaSays I think it's the lighting with light glowy makeup. You have like a fresh faced look today👌
Hey Veronica. These are always fun
Hi LuuLuu! They are fun to film. 💖🥰
Oh yes! Pepe LePew.
If you ever want to do a comfy, cozy video, I will watch for sure.
Pepe LePew! Yes. 💖 I did a cozy video this fall. Here's the link if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/nDkusj6WTck/w-d-xo.html
@@VeronicaSays I did see that one. Maybe, a warm weather version, like a lazy day in the park type of comforting thing? Just a thought.
Wow I am definitely getting a decant of the Xerjoff!
Yessss! It's so cozy, Sharida! 💯
Thanks for another great review and specially your real take on Minuit and Demie. It is indeed overpriced considering it doesn’t last. I have been eyeing the Tom Ford one.
Thank you, Bella! 💖🥰 Yeah, the lasting power on MeD is definitely depressing compared to the asking retail price. 😒
I love Black Orchid, for me this is a definition of perfume art. Even if you do not like to wear it, you have to appreciate it 🥰🥰🥰
I completely agree! It's a must try regardless. 💖💯👏
I wanted to tell you that because of your glowing review, I got myself a big bottle of Givenchy Amarige and I have to say - I don’t think I have ever smelled anything so gloriously feminine 💗🌸 I am so in LOVE with it!! This is truly signature scent worthy, a perfume like they just don’t make perfumes any more. Thank you!!! Side note: when I was a girl, I wore Revlon Wildheart and I’ve missed it for years since it was discontinued - now I see that this is real deal

A men's crotch 🤣🤣🤣 I am actually in the camp that I'm indifferent with black orchid. I can take it or leave it. Velvet orchid though 😍
Velvet Orchid is all kinds of wonderful! 💖💯🥰
Hi Veronica, love the fragrance awards makes me laugh quite often
Hi Veronique! 💖 Awesome! We could all use a few chuckles from time to time. 🥰🥰🥰
I'm so relieved that you liked Raised Spirits! It's on my list for if/when I ever run out of my beloved Minuit et Demi.
I can see why! It's super good. 🥰💖
Raised Spirits is similar to Minuet et Demi but not the same. MeD is much sweeter than RS. With RS you’re definitely getting the butter fudge. Both lack longevity imo. Maybe this fragrance profile is difficult to make last. Penhaligons Changing Constance is similar and also doesn’t last apparently. Thanks Veronica for your review!!
Thank you Veronica! I get so excited when I see the monthly awards videos!
Awww that is so sweet, Linda! Thanks so much 💖🥰💖🥰
Same here!
De marshmallow your description is hilarious
🤣🤣🤣 It's really good though.
Veronica can you do a video on the fragrances you're son likes on you? I have a fraghead if a son and a my daughter has also a picky nose.
I would love to, but he seems mostly repulsed by everything I wear these days. 🥴🥴🥴 that's a teenager for you, though. 🤷♀️
Hi Veronica! New subscriber here and I just love your videos. You highlight perfumes that no one else really talks about and I appreciate you for it. Speaking of, I have Tangier Vanilla D’Or and absolutely love it. Hidden gem for sure. Cheers!!

It’s the Fragrance Awards!!!!!!
Yay! 🥳🥳🥳 Hi Ketra! 💖
Great first fragrance awards of 2023🎉🎉🎉❤
Thank you so much, Mrs. Cook! 🥰💖🥰💖
I agree with the Kyse bottles. That’s the only reason I haven’t purchased a bottle. I actually bought a bunch of samples a year ago but never went through with buying any for that reason. I wanted the peach yuzu one and the s’mores one.
Hey Kat! Yeah. I don't know what to say. Wish the labels were a bit more chic. 🥴

Good morning! I thought it was hilarious when you were talking about the Kyse bottle! 😆 Enjoyed the awards as usual!
Hi Ayesha! That bottle is... 🥴 Thanks for watching 🥰🥰🥰
Looking lovely in blue💙 My fave color! I need to find my Fever I really like that one! Great video & picks Veronica
Hi Donna! Thanks so much! 💖 Yes, show that pretty Fever bottle some love. 🥰
now I need to add shunkoin in my To Test list... i know Jackie got that one and LOOOOOVED it ! 💙
You dooooooooo! I just KNOW you'd like it. 💖🥰
Black orchid is on my list and hearing you talking about it now I want it even more !! ❤
Try the one in the gold bottle! 👌👌👌
Hmmmm that Spirito Fiorentino sounds soooo good. Sounds like Florence...strong, independent, flowery but also leathery...I can so see why they chose those notes. I pictured Florence as you described it. I want to explore that house more, but they're a little pricey for me. Loved the video. Such interesting choices.🎉🎉
Florence from Swiss Arabian? Oh wow! I tried that one a while ago and just don't remember what it smells like so this is helpful. Thanks so much, Nancy G!! 💖💖💖
I have got to try "Raised Spirits", I love your monthly videos. I'm still in awe that it's February already😶 lol. Pretty soon we'll be thinking about Valentine's fragrances😂.
Raised Spirits is very pleasant. I just sniffed it again last night and was, again, surprised at how nice it is. 😁 Girl... where did all of 2020 go??? Soon I'll be filming fall and Christmas videos again. 😩🥴🤔
Shunkoin is so awesome. I’m so glad I got it.
It certainly is! I'm so glad you're loving it! 💖🥰💖🥰
I am so there with you on JC Fever. I wish it gave me more. I keep wanting to smell more of it. It’s so beautiful but too weak
Exactly. Just a bit more power would go a long way with that one. 👍💯
I love fluity fragrances lol ! You crack me up and I love these videos so much🥰
Haha! Me too. It's a new olfactive family. 🤣🤣🤣Thank you so much! 💖
Used to have Rogue but gave it away ! Great video ❤🤗
Thank you! Did you not like Rogue?
@@VeronicaSays I liked it , but I knew my sister-in-law law would enjoy it more, so i gave it to her ! 🤗
@@nadiamohamed6010 that was thoughtful.
@@VeronicaSays Aw thank you! 🤗❤️
Fave video 🥳💖
Awww thank you, Dorte! 🥰💖
@@VeronicaSays 💖❣️
Those colors are looking gorgeous in you ❤
Thank you! 🥰💖
Bottega Veneta bottle Knot Eau absolue😍😍😍😍.. The sunset colored juice is also attractive
Right?! Such a cool bottle and fragrance color. 💯💖🥰🤩
Would love a Disney themed video!! Scents or bottles that a princess/ villain/ character would wear 😁
Hi Susan! How fun would that be? I don't know many Disney fans who also enjoy fragrance as much as we do, but it's something to consider. 🥰🥰🥰
I just sold my JC fever and OG JC. Too sweet for me, her and her sister.
Oh really? Gotcha. The OG left outta here a while back. I just couldn't wear it well.
I have shunkoin in my cart right now, was gonna get it this month but I was distracted by some others😂 so she'll come home at the end of dec.
Ooooooh yes! I hope you enjoy it! Let me know your thoughts. 💖💖💖
Did I say dec??? I want what she's having! 😂 I meant feb.
@chinee LMBO! I didn't even pick up that there was anything wrong with December. Somehow it all made sense to me. 🥴
😂
Wore Rogue last night - lasts 8+ hours on me - so so good
Oh that's awesome longevity! 👌💖💯
The best monthly perfume series on youtube imo! 👏👏👏
Awww thank you, em! 💖🥰💖🥰
I really enjoy Tobacco Pod after taking your recommendation. I have since bought a travel spray of Divine Vanille, and they give me very similar vibes.
Hi Danielle, fabulous! I'm so happy that Tobacco Pod is working out for you! 🥳🥳🥳
I really wanted to sniff Fluer de Orientica but it was out of stock
It is super lovely. A great dupe of Fleur Narcotique. I enjoy it quite a lot.
Can I first come clean and admit that I broke my “only four fragrances this year” rule and bought some cheapies! 🤦🏾♀️😂
I loved Saffron Lazuli and found out that Maison Alhambra had dupes for some in the line. I bought two, Exclusif Saffron and Rose. The Saffron is spot on and the Rose is so beautiful to me, though I can’t say how close it is to Burning Rose. You helped me decide that I didn’t need the tobacco right now. The Knot Eau Absolute sounds perfect, the way you described it is how the Twilly’s make me feel, clean but warm 😊
Great month as always, Veronica! 😊
Thanks so much, J! 💖 Shhhh, your broken no buy will be our secret! 😆 Sounds like you found some good ones. Knot Eau Absolue does have the "warmth" factor in common with Twilly! 👍👍👍
Hi! I m glad I discovered you! Congratulation on what are you doing! I m from Romania and I m so passionate about perfumes and I m waiting from Shunkoin now :) ....at your reccomendation :) .
Hello Anca! 🥰 Welcome to the channel! I hope you love Shunkoin. It's so cozy and delightful. 💖💖💖
@@VeronicaSaysI feel this will be a seek and buy asap😱😍.🥰Stani
I bet I would love raised spirits. I need to just buy it lol ❤ great video as always. You look beautiful.
Thank you, doll! Check your DMs when you have a minute. 🥰
I just tried Raised Spirits and Chocolate Queen. So glad you mentioned RS being close to Minuit et Demi because I couldn’t put my finger on it lol.
Chocolate queen ended up being a creamy vanilla/maybe white chocolate on me vs a cacao or chocolate bar.
Hi Kristian! 💖 Which one did you enjoy most?
Hi! I'm going through a marshmallow phase, I'm taking notes!
Hahaha! Isn't that funny how we get obsessed with certain kinds of fragrances? I'm having an all-things-vanilla moment! 🥰🥰🥰
I love hearing the notes in fragrances, I do get an idea of how it smells , that raised spirits sounds cozy ♥️
Oh awesome! Raised Spirits is a fun one. 🥰💖
That’s really an amazing January month! I’m glad you’re enjoying rest spirits. It’s such a good one, I’ve been wanting to try venom of love and chocolate queen as well ❤
Thanks Moraima! I think you would enjoy Venom of Love. Very good! 💖🥰
Hiiiiii! I agree, that del marshmallow bottle is horrible, it would def sit at the back of the shelf for me. 🫣🫣🫣😂
It's sorta hidden - no marquis billing for that bottle. 🥴🥴🥴
@@VeronicaSays 🤣🤣🤣
@@chinee6504 what is even more puzzling is that the sticker doesn't remotely match the style of the printing on the bottle. Come on, make an effort!
IMO the Vanille from Anthropologie is great for sweetening up fragrances and/or bringing forward more of the vanilla in a fragrance. Black Orchid is an acquired taste 😏. I’ve had my bottle since it came out and I literally cannot describe it to people…love it!
I agree on both points! Acquired taste for sure on Black Orchid! 👍👍💖💖🥰🥰
The colors look too amazing on you. Beautiful 😊
Awww thank you 🥰🥰🥰
Hi Veronica! I found a fragrance called Tobacco and Tonka Bean by Banana Republic at Burlington and it's beautiful. It's a skin scent for sure but it's lovely.
Yes I've heard so many lovely reviews of this fragrance! 💖👍🥰
GOOOOOOOOD MORNING 🌄 HAPPY TUESDAY MI AMIGAAAAA ❤️ 🤗 😊
Hola Marcial! 💖 Happy Tuesday, mi amigo! 🥰🥰🥰
The description of Shunkoin, to me, sounds like a cross between Gold Couture (from Juicy Couture) and Dior Addict with a hint of cherry. I could be way off but from all the reviews I've read, that's the picture I get.
Oh really? Interesting! I would not put those two fragrances in the same vein as Shunkoin but that would be an interesting combo. 🥰💖🥰💖
Always love the awards! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏆🏆🏆 Love this color on you!! 👗 xo
Thank you so much, Tammy! 🥰💖
I love these videos. I have to watch the last one from your other channel. Yesterday, I tried Babycat for the first time.
Hi Gladys! Thank you dear! 🥰💖 So tell me, what did you think of Babycat?
@@VeronicaSays pretty. On my was vanilla + incense, period. Later on it developed a little more and the scent turned truly beautiful. Sillage on me is none and you have to hug me in other to appreciate the aroma. Duration on me less than 5 hours. I will try it again, I'll let you know. Turning the page, I also tried Rosendo Mateu No 7; well, it is my #1 in my "You Must Buy a Full Bottle List". It moved Atomic Rose to second place quickly (I have 4 10ml decanters of it 🤣, anyway)
@@gladhead oh wow! Okay. I'll have to try #7. 👍👍👍
@@VeronicaSays No 7 is one thing on the cap, another on paper and yet another on skin and clothes.
Love❤ Lalique fragrances!
Lalique has some real winners! 💖🥰
“In your garage type of label”😂😂😂 you’re so funny and entertaining. And REAL. We appreciate you!🥰
I was just being honest! 😁 Thanks so much! 💖🥰
@@VeronicaSays and I’m here for honesty and authenticity. 🥰
Glad your January frag was great!
Me too! No stinkers this month 🤣
I had no idea about Velvet Orchid’s “inspired by” story. That cracked me up. It’s not my favorite, but I get a ton of compliments when I wear it. I will have to share the origin story with those folks lololol. I agree about Bvlgari Thé White-so beautiful but so fleeting. All in that line are the same way, sadly. New subscriber here, love your channel!
Hi Kim! 🥰 Welcome to the channel! Yes that Black Orchid backstory is one for the books, honey! 🤣 I so wish the Bvlgari lasted longer. Sigh.
Jimmy Choo Fever is such a delight!!! 💜💜💜 But you’re right about the drydown
Right? Sigh. If only it have a bit more punch to it. 👌💯
Hidden gems & affordable fragrances that smell expensive are my favorite categories because those are ones that aren’t usually talked about. Lol when you said you don’t want to knock people out with a sexy fragrance, made me laugh, I said, yes, I do 😂♥️😝
I have an affordable gems video posting this weekend - stay tuned! AND some of those will have you smelling super knockout sexy. 😉😉😉
@@VeronicaSays I’m here for it! 🙋🏻♀️😁♥️
Actually it might be next weekend. It's loaded but I forgot there's one ahead in the queue. It's coming though! 😄
@@VeronicaSays it’s all good, I’ll be here for it👍🏻♥️🥰
@@Danit.Talkscentswithme thank youuuu 🙏🙏🙏
Hi Veronica, Turqoise is stunning on you🤍🤍
Bottega Knot Absolu came in time, I am going to break my no blind buying rule this time and become rebellious😁
Tom Ford Black Orchid, yeh I was looking for the difference between the Black and the Gold bottle.
Have a great weekend.
Hi Fatema, that gold bottle is THE FULL BUSINESS! So good. Potent too! If you can grab Knot Eau Absolue and like a clean but comforting fragrance, definitely try it out. 💖🥰
