I’ve bought so many perfumes based on your videos, and I’ve never been disappointed! I always trust your reviews 🤍 What I really appreciate is how you get straight to the point-no long intros or off-topic chatter. Love your videos! 🙌🏻🥰
Thanks Anne! I got a compliment on Oro Verde last week! I was shocked! I layered it with L'Imperatrice. And I get compliments on Bo and Vanilla Planifolia. What can I say - you give amazing recommendations, and I'm so thankful.❤️
Anne, I love wearing Bo 💛 Blue Talisman and Musk K are on my wishlist, fell in love with them immediately after sampling. Aphrodisiac Touch gets me a lot of compliments, almost every single time I wear it ❤
Oh Welton's Secret Amber, I love it too. It's just so cosy and familiar and moreish. I've been recommending it to random people for ages and doubt any of them have bothered to seek it out. I hope they'll listen to you and buy it for if not enough people buy something then we all know what the sad fate of that product will be...yikes! PS= I love your channel, you recommend such great fragrances to try and describe them so well every time.
I've got an idea for a video: fragrances to wear to an interview. This may differ from work fragrances because you are meeting people for the first time and want to make a good impression. Whereas at work, you may not care what others think ;)
Lol I very much related to your cannabis aversion. It's a testament to the nuanced artistry of Oro Verde--I was shocked by how much I loved it. Always enjoy hearing you chat about fragrances with green and woody notes 🤍
Anne, thank you so much for introducing House of Bō to us all! I ended up falling in love with Espíritu, my best friend loves Bombón, and my husband absolutely loves Oro Verde (my lord, it smells so good on him. Trust and believe we all bought full bottles (the packaging with this brand, chef’s kiss). Have you tried Nette’s Coco Fleur? The dry down reminds me so much of Clean Skin Reserve (thank you for listing the correct notes, Fragrantica really had me confused when I was researching it the other day).
@@JackieMeadow ahhh that makes my day!! 🥹🎉 That’s so cool to hear! I have tried Coco Fleur! I have yet to find a Nette perfume that I love though, it unfortunately wasn’t for me. And oh my gosh I know, Fragrantica drives me crazy, the notes are incorrect too often for it being a perfume database! 🙈 so I’ll go ahead and edit the note breakdown if I notice a discrepancy
@@AnneLauren I haven’t found a Nette fragrance that I love either, but I’m hopeful for Thé Vanille (which I just bought a travel spray of). We’ll see, might just be a great house that isn’t for me.
Thank you Anne! I own a few of these and need to try a couple more. I have a video request for you, if possible. I would love to see a video of Eric's collection and your fav's. Needing some Christmas ideas 🌲🎄🌲🎄
Hey Lauren! I do have 2 men's fragrance videos up that could help with that! 🥰 th-cam.com/video/Oq_1-0GHJLE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/usLJUn1mvGo/w-d-xo.html If you know what types of fragrances or notes the person you're looking for enjoys, I'd be happy to give you specific recommendations in that category as well ❤️
I always love these vids! Everything you said about Secret Amber is dead on. I love it and it’s so easy and pleasant. Look at Erik expanding his horizons! 😄🙌I need to try Oro Verde again. Like you I didn’t love it on first try. 😅
I knew you would love Secret Amber!! 😄 I had a feeling it might not be for you, but juuuust in case, I felt the need to throw in it since it ended up growing on me 😄💚
Always love you recommendations!! I went through a few samples of Blue Talisman upon your review some months back. Pear is my favorite fruit note and it’s sooo short lived in most perfumes opening. Blue Talisman did it right and I didn’t mind the cold was of the Agikalawood….refreshing. How would you compare Xerjoff Apollonia to Musc K? I am enjoying my Apollonia sample as it isn’t lipstick and lasts than most musks but I want to try Ella K if it is heavy on orris butter as well!!
Thank you! Ahh I'm so glad you enjoy Blue Talisman as well!! I struggle to smell much out of Apollonia (I know I'm in the minority! I wish I got the mystical experience that people describe!) My notes mention "musk and orris with a hint of white florals. Soapy and a little makeup powdery"
@@AnneLaurenthey mystical experience is short lived with apollonia but it's a safe white flower for me in the office as most like musks there. I do get the makeup powder but I tried Balle rouge and that is just a too bit much vintage for me....reminds me of my moms suede bag in the 80s and when she'd ask me to go grab her wallet or makeup bag and I was hit with that smell!!
You have gained yourself a new subscriber! I am new into the scent world and I have bought Khamrah Qahwa based on your recommendation, hopefully this will live up to its name for me! (Yes, a blind buy, but the price was an absolute steal).
Sonic Flower is one of my most complemented. It must project because I never think it is that strong, but I get loads of compliments and even strangers asking me to write the name down for them.
@@breannacarels6479I loooove sonic flower too! And I just bought musk K and I love it toooo soo much! Musk k imo is sonic flower / glossier you and l’eau papier together ❤️ I am sure this suits you as well
Thank you for this. I love how there is always a section for Eric’s experiences with scents 🤣🤣. Your scent sidekick. I want to love blue talisman , but there is something in the akigalawood that does not work with my skin😭. After wearing Oro verde I could not pick up wave child ever again 😂. Have a great rest of the week Anne !
It's so fun to have a partner who loves fragrances as well 🙏🏼😄 Aw that's a shame! But I understand, akigalawood can be tricky on some people! Have a fun Halloween! 🧡😁
Most recently I’ve been getting compliments when I wear Henry Rose Queens and Monsters. Honestly probably 3 or 4 in the last couples months. Not sure what it is about that fragrance that makes people notice you ❤
One of my sisters, who mostly just loves straight up vanilla perfumes, came to visit, picked up Queens & Monsters and said, "Oh this is really good!!" I was surprised she liked it given her usual taste, but it sure is a good one!!
I wore the Dior Forever Skin Glow foundation, The Zodiac eyeshadow palette from Colourpop using the shade "Taurus," Charlotte Tilbury Pillowtalk lip liner, and YSL Rouge Volupte Shine lipstick in 47 :)
I honestly do the same! When I'm taking a break from purchasing fragrances, I won't buy samples either, because it just makes it harder once you fall in love with something hahah
Blue Talisman to me is not a pear fragrance. There is a lot of chemical musc and a lot of chemical citrusiness. No pear 🤷♀️ But Yes, compliment magnet for sure!
They're very similar, so if you own one, you wouldn't need the other, but I personally didn't feel excited by Sonic Flower, I felt like it was lacking something to hook me, and it smells a bit more simple and dry in comparison. To me, Musc K smells of higher quality, it's smoother, more sophisticated, and has better performance. 🤍
hahahah I've noticed that when my boyfriend wears Oud for Greatness he gets loadssss of compliments, but so far, I don't think I've had someone say something when I wear it lol
So I get compliments on Oud for Greatness. I think it’s an aesthetic thing? I’m a woman, 6’, well dressed (in public 😂) usually in fairly conservative/classic silhouettes because of my work, but I have two full tattoo sleeves that peak out of my sweaters/ dresses, etc. 😮
@ @ @ I can’t wait to hear what you think! I blind bought it, which I’ve never done before, but I love a good gourmand and I love Liis. Plus Jérome Epinette is behind some fantastic creations. I haven’t opened Choux Choux yet. I did get a tiny sample, but it’s always hard to tell from tiny samples! Bo and Ethereal Wave are two of my favorites though.
I'd love to hear more about how you choose your fragrance for the day or the occasion! Like - what put you in the mood to wear a specific scent to get your oil changed?? Weather? Mood? How you want to present yourself?
I don't think Skin smells like "your skin but better" at all. It smells way too sweet and floral to me. yes, there's musk, but it's a very perfumey scent. Also has horrible lasting power.
Clean skin will really do it every time! Honestly one of my faves
I love it! It’s more simple yet leaves an impact 😁💕
That’s what I wear when I’m running out the door and don’t know what to choose :) it’s always appropriate
I’ve bought so many perfumes based on your videos, and I’ve never been disappointed! I always trust your reviews 🤍 What I really appreciate is how you get straight to the point-no long intros or off-topic chatter. Love your videos! 🙌🏻🥰
🥹 I'm so happy to hear that!! And thank you!
I’m wearing Clean Skin as we speak! Clean Radiant Nectar is also a beautiful your skin fragrance!
Thanks Anne! I got a compliment on Oro Verde last week! I was shocked! I layered it with L'Imperatrice. And I get compliments on Bo and Vanilla Planifolia. What can I say - you give amazing recommendations, and I'm so thankful.❤️
I wish I liked the smell of palo santo!
Yesss that sounds like such a good combo?!! 😍 And thank you so much 😩 so thankful for you!!
I own Liis Bo thanks to your recommendation. And it is perfect. One of my most complimented fragrances.
I love that so much 😩❤️❤️ so cool to hear 🥹
I love your hair so pretty 😍
Thank you so much! 💖
Anne, I love wearing Bo 💛 Blue Talisman and Musk K are on my wishlist, fell in love with them immediately after sampling. Aphrodisiac Touch gets me a lot of compliments, almost every single time I wear it ❤
ohh yes!! That one definitely brings the attention as well 😆💕
I would be SO down for a video all about green vanillas. I've tried a few but I want to try more before I decide what to add to my collection.
Oh Welton's Secret Amber, I love it too. It's just so cosy and familiar and moreish. I've been recommending it to random people for ages and doubt any of them have bothered to seek it out. I hope they'll listen to you and buy it for if not enough people buy something then we all know what the sad fate of that product will be...yikes! PS= I love your channel, you recommend such great fragrances to try and describe them so well every time.
Totally! 🧡 I hope some have tried it due to your recommendation, if not, they're missing out 😉 And I appreciate it so much! 🙏🏼
You are bang on about Blue Talisman and Vanilla Planifolia....my absolute loves amongst the recent purchases.
Thank you for jumping straight in!
Can we get an updated tour of your collection and perhaps top 2/3 from each brand.❤ I would watch on repeat!
Coming soon! 🥰

such an attractive profile! 💕
@ it is! Glossier You gets me compliments too.. haven’t had the chance to try the Ella K one, but I’m sure it’s fabulous.

Can you recommend with clean reserve skin, what is a good body wash, body oil and lotion , that pairs well with
I wore Musc K to visit a friend once, and when I hugged her daughter she said “Oh, you smell rich today!” 😂
Love this list!!! 🫶
Thank you! 😁
Would love to find a dupe of Escada's Tropical Punch, anyone have any rec's?
Thanks Anne! I am making my list❤ I am -- I want them all though❤ Have a Happy Halloween 🖤🧡🎃🐈⬛🧙♀️
😆🧡 Happy Halloweeeen!
Girrl what makeup products do u hand on today ? Esp eyes, foundation & lips???
I wore the Dior Forever Skin Glow foundation, The Zodiac eyeshadow palette from Colourpop using the shade "Taurus," Charlotte Tilbury Pillowtalk lip liner, and YSL Rouge Volupte Shine lipstick in 47 :)
I wore Skin last Friday. It was my sotd.
so pretty!
I need to get my nose on Musk K, though I’m putting myself on a fragrance no-buy until after Christmas so maybe I shouldn’t try it just yet 😊.
I honestly do the same! When I'm taking a break from purchasing fragrances, I won't buy samples either, because it just makes it harder once you fall in love with something hahah
Nice video love from Bangladesh ❤️❤️
I really need to add clean skin to my collection I don’t know why I have waited to long!! lol!!❤
Giiirl why did I think you already owned it 😆💕💕
@ girl I know right!!!
Blue Talisman to me is not a pear fragrance. There is a lot of chemical musc and a lot of chemical citrusiness. No pear 🤷♀️ But Yes, compliment magnet for sure!
How does Ella K musk K compare to Sonic Flower?
They're very similar, so if you own one, you wouldn't need the other, but I personally didn't feel excited by Sonic Flower, I felt like it was lacking something to hook me, and it smells a bit more simple and dry in comparison. To me, Musc K smells of higher quality, it's smoother, more sophisticated, and has better performance. 🤍
@ thank you for this explanation very helpful
Born to wear oud for greatness and ebony wood, forced to wear delina and cloud if I want compliments 😞
hahahah I've noticed that when my boyfriend wears Oud for Greatness he gets loadssss of compliments, but so far, I don't think I've had someone say something when I wear it lol
So I get compliments on Oud for Greatness. I think it’s an aesthetic thing?
I’m a woman, 6’, well dressed (in public 😂) usually in fairly conservative/classic silhouettes because of my work, but I have two full tattoo sleeves that peak out of my sweaters/ dresses, etc. 😮
@@katiedemski2419 yeah maybe! I wouldn’t say I dress girly girly, but I do love my occasional pink fluffy sweater 😆
I adore Liis Bo! And Liis fragrances. Have you tried Choux Choux? Thoughts?
Ella K Musc K is lovely, too.
I haven't yet but I 100% will!
@ @ @ I can’t wait to hear what you think! I blind bought it, which I’ve never done before, but I love a good gourmand and I love Liis. Plus Jérome Epinette is behind some fantastic creations. I haven’t opened Choux Choux yet. I did get a tiny sample, but it’s always hard to tell from tiny samples! Bo and Ethereal Wave are two of my favorites though.
@ I have very high hopes 😁🤞🏼

I'd love to hear more about how you choose your fragrance for the day or the occasion! Like - what put you in the mood to wear a specific scent to get your oil changed?? Weather? Mood? How you want to present yourself?
yessss
Honestly all of the above! It starts with how the weather is that day and then whatever mood I'm in :)
Curious if your name is Anna why is it spelt Anne? Sorry not meant to be mean in any way, I am just curious!
It's in the description box
I'm Dutch and also have a Dutch name, that's how my name is spelled and pronounced in the Dutch language :)
@@AnneLaurenvery cool!!! I had no idea and am always curious of people’s names. Thanks for sharing!
@@allisonbotts8532yeah I didn’t see anything about her heritage on the description box.
@@cherylcoburn It is there under FAQs 🙂
