    I have been subscribed for a few weeks now, and I'm such a fan! You're like a parfum sommelier, and I have had so much fun watching along with your videos as I start putting my "that girl" perfume collection together. I watched this whole thing with a smile on my face, so thank you for being you and sharing your love of perfume with us 🥰
    And yes, more of these videos, please! There are soooooo many TikToks and reels and YT shorts showcasing the same fragrances, and it's hard to know what's real and what's bandwagoning/playing to the algorithm 🤷🏾‍♀

    Layer oud for greatness with MFK 540 extrait and it’s super amazing!!!

    I have a bunch of Maison Crivelli samples on the way. Super excited. I love Gris Charnel. The extrait is really nice, but I like the original better. I also layer the extrait with a vanilla.
    I adore Silky Woods! It’s gorgeous.

    Thanks for this much needed video. I have been on the fence with all of these and you’ve confirmed my findings. However, you have convinced me to go for the Silky Woods.

    I got a sample of Hibiscus Mahajad from Twisted Lily. I like it but on the fence about purchasing a full size. It reminds me of Delina. I'd love more reviews of hyped fragrances.💜

    Silky Woods smell zero gourmand on my skin. To me I can smell a lot of suede and that’s why I haven’t purchased a full bottle of it.

    • @ErinGoBragh325
      @ErinGoBragh325 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have had the *exact* same experience, except I did the careless thing and blind bought it (it arrived today). I'm so disappointed! All I can pick up is suede/leather. I don't sense anything sweet. At all. I thought maybe I got a bad bottle/batch...but unlikely. I'm just so disappointed. Any suggestions for other scents to layer this with?

    Am I the only one who feels like Oud for Greatness smells a loooot like Baccarat Rouge 540 but with leather/rubber ? Its like BR540’s sexy older sister lol I like it a lot to use myself but, not only did it not last longer than a couple of hours on me, but I also just felt a little disappointed at its familiarity…it kinda left me wanting something more unique from it 🫣 I just got a travel size from ScentBird so maybe I need to play with it a bit more 🤔

    Silky woods took me a while to warm up to. The opening smells like bandaids - BUT once you get past that it is the most sweet delectable vanilla. A grown up Vanilla. Not like B&BW vanilla.

      I just got it and am having a hard time liking it. I'm only picking up the leather/suede and woody notes. Not really picking up any vanilla. At one point I started wondering if I got a bad batch/bottle. But unlikely. I'm just feeling a little;e disappointed. I'll keep trying, though.
