I realize I should have filmed these categories in reverse order from easy everyday to bizarre. I started with the bizarre ones first. 🤭 Sorry if that first pick scared you! 😱
Oh my, Vero…😳😬🤣😘
@@sweetsimpleslowlife2709 I know. New viewers are going to have trust issues 🤣🤣🤣
Now, we’re going to want a “fragrance safari”…. Sand, grass, jungle, campfire….
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I also organize my perfumes by main note or main accord 😊❤
“Vintage” perfumes from the 80’s had to compete with hair styling products and cigarette smoke. Now that says a lot 😊
Ooooof! I know that's right! 🙌💯💖
I’d love to see a video of all the dupes you kept! I’m always nervous to order dupes and would love to hear your opinion of the best of the best! 😁
You are right to be nervous - dupes can be a whole deep rabbit hole sometimes I'm hoping to do a best of my dupes soon. Thanks for watching 💖💖💖
I am definitely not newer into fragrances but Veronica, what a beautiful video you have made with so much love put into it! 🥰🥰🥰 It was a joy taking a peak into your shelves. Wow.
Hi there! Thank you so much and thanks for watching, too! 🥰💖
Simply put… You are amazing! It’s clear that you are very down to earth and enjoy a fragrance because of what it is versus the high end label that’s on the bottle. Thoroughly enjoy your personality that shines through big time on your videos! Also loved the video of you and your hubby! You guys are too ca-ute! Thanks for being awesome Veronica! 😇🙏🏼💕
What a lovely comment, thank you! 🙏🙏🙏 I definitely enjoy fragrances of all varieties. Labels neither attract nor deter me. I'm so glad you're enjoying the content and thanks for watching me get goofy with hubby. 🥰🥰🥰
Your so welcome! I’ve been out of perfumes since maybe 2002 ish. I would just buy BBW body sprays except the one bottle of perfume I had, which I think was the original Tresor for date nights with hubby. So I am back to building a collection again and your videos, along with a few other ladies here on TH-cam are helping me to build a collection again. Many thanks! 🙏🏼. I’ve been binge watching you. 😂
@@inkyimpressions I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos and find them helpful! 💖💖💖
Hello my dear!!!! Loved this video because it's different from the rinse, wash, and repeat fragrance videos we see all over YT, and above all, it'll help many people decide what to go for, especially when they're just getting started. Clap clap you never disappoint 🙌💖💖 and please don't risk your life for the sake of fragrances 😂😂😂
Hi gorgeous! 💖 I take risks for the "culture" you know! 😂😂😂 Thanks so much for joining me today for my Perfume Safari. Glad you enjoyed it! 🥰🥰🥰
@@VeronicaSays 😂😂 I love your videos I've always did because aside from the value you always bring, you have a lot of charisma and your amazing personality shines thru PLUS you do your own thing. A+ 💖💖
Veronica, I enjoy your videos so much. Thank you for sharing your expertise. I have loved fragrance since childhood. My mother allowed me to order Avon perfumes at an early age as an introduction for a little girl to wear a " perfume" ( she was a Chanel lady) As an adult, I eventually worked for Lancome, and Christian Dior and worked in the fragrance department also. I will never outgrown my love of cosmetics and lovely scents.
Hi Barbara! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Oh my goodness, I LOVED looking through the Avon catalog as a kid and circling what I was interested in, including fragrances! 💖 The perfume counters were always fun too.
I dumped the highboy climbing the drawers to get to Mom's Here's My Heart. Naughty thing. ;)
@@mala3isity 😂😂😂
Loved this concept. It was fun to see your picks and get a look at your fantastic collection. It looks sooo organized! 🤩 Soleil Blanc is on my radar again because of you. 😂🍋❄️💛
Thanks Melissa! 🥰💖 It was fun to film especially because I did ZERO prep for it! I just flowed through the sections and decided the choices right on the spot. Soleil Blanc is divine! I love it! 💯💯💯
Loved this vid Veronica! I’m not a novice to fragrances but there is so much to chose from that getting back to basics is very helpful.
Thank you so much! 🥰💖 Yes, I love "basics" videos, too. Sometimes we make fragrance too complicated and it doesn't need to be.
I love your channel so much, Veronica. Your content is always original, fun and full of value and it's like hanging with a friend.
Awww thank you soooo much, Terrie! 🥰 That's the highest compliment for a channel. 💖💖💖
Fantastic video Veronica! Wonderful selections! I think Pear Inc is really nice. I tried it and really liked it. Happy belated birthday!🎂💃🎉🎊
Thank you very much! 💖🥰 Pear Inc is very underrated! 🙌
Girl of Now is such a must in one’s collection. ❤
Absolutely! I can't believe it gets hate! 😵
It's always fun to take a pic inside someone's fragrance collection. I love how you organized it by categories Veronica.
Thanks so much, Emy! It's definitely fun to peek into collections! 💖💖💖
Hey lovely Cuz!!! These are such amazing recommendations and I definitely have to try Apple Crumb! I love the size of Alexandria Bottles. Amazing dupes and super easy to carry ❤
Hi my Lovely Marcy! 💖🥰 Speaking of this, I traveled today and am carrying what, you ask? Retro Gold Flare from Alexandria - a dupe for Gentle Fluidity Gold. That's all I brought with me!
Congratulations on the decluttering! We have so many of the same fragrances 😲 😱 I love that your suggestions are so inclusive of all brands and price points.
Thank you so much, Linda! 💖🥰 I enjoy fragrances of all types, price points, and eras. I find them infinitely fun! 🎊
Beautiful collection love seeing your bottles. I was in Ulta yesterday and smelled the new Escada Santorini Sunrise-so so light & fresh! Love it for Spring!🌷🌼🌺
Hi Donna! Thank you! Ooooooh, I want to smell the new Escada! 🥰💖
Yes!!! I still love Labelle too and in fact, I think I’m going to wear her today❤❤❤ love this run through, super helpful for beginners and those of us who have been at it a while too!!!💚💚💚
La Belle is that girl! Or woman! 🥰 I don't understand how or why she gets hate buy oh well. More bottles for US! 🎊🥳💯
Love this video❤ thank you for your reviews 👌👏🏻 best regards from Poland
Thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🥰
Great review i really enjoy your channels , thank you ... much love from Kat in Australia xo
Thank you soooo much, Kat! 💖🥰💖🥰
What a lovely collection! I love listening to your soothing voice and hearing your honest interpretations vs someone just saying they smell ....(reading the ingredient). 😊
Oh, thank you soooo much! I used to do the reading of the notes thing but quickly realized that felt all wrong and doesn't mean much to viewers. Much better to share my personal impressions loosely informed by the notes and accords. 💯👌💖🥰
You are the best… good suggestions and you are so entertaining 😅.
Thank you so much! 💖🥰
I LOVE this show of your perfume tour and about them! You have my curiosity piqued on so many…
Thank you so much! 💖💖💖
I love this video so much! That was a really nice variety. From a fellow shortie, thank you for braving the step ladder and filming - I would have been clinging for dear life 😂
Thank youuuu! 💖💖💖 We shorties have to root for each other! 😆😆😆
Veronica, hi 👋! Love the safari 🥰🥳
I have purchased so many great fragrances on your recommendation! Some of them include; Still, Lovely, Junoon, Shunkoin, all of which I love ❤️
Thanks so much 😊 Always love watching your videos!
Hey Margo! Thanks for joining me on the perfume reserve! 😆😆😆 I'm thrilled to hear you're enjoying so many of the recommendations. I appreciate your feedback! 💖💖💖
Coco Vanille is my absolute favorite coconut fragrance. I really enjoyed this video! ❤🥰😘
It's sooooo good! 💖🥰
Veronica, great video! The viewer comment section is hilarious and helpful 🤣
I'm digging deep into your video archive; helpful too. 💖
You're a delight and looking forward to more lighthearted takes in the future. Ty!
Thank you so much! Yes, these comment sections are a treasure trove of advice and good humor. Our YT fragrance friends always deliver! 💖💖💖
Your collection looks so tidy clean and shiny...so pretty to look at
Thank you! It took many months and hours to get to this point. Phew! 🤣
The step ladder 🤣 I love the dedication! She has to get to her shelves comfortably!
I'm here for my peops! 💖💖💖
I love your final curated collection. It’s very orderly.
Thank you! I'm enjoying it so much more now that they're in order.
Hiiiiiii! This looks exciting, let me get in my recline position.😊
Hiiiii Nadine! 💖 Hope you enjoy 🥰🥰🥰
Wowwwwww!!! You have a huge collection even after your “reflectolution” curation😊😊😊 I’m so glad you survived the ladder 🤣🤣🤣. From your repeated recommendation, I bought Cafe Cabanel….omg, I hate myself for not getting it sooner……sooooo good!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
The curating is a never ending process, I've come to accept! 🥰🥰🥰 Soooo glad you love Cafe Cabanel! That's fantastic! And I, too, am glad to have survived the step stool. 😆😆😆
Mfk grand soir is gorgeous. I had a sample, my husband smelled it, and fell in love. I got him a bottle for Christmas 2021 and he’s almost out. He loves it so much and always gets compliments on it.
It really is a lovely one! Glad you and your hubby own a bottle! 🥰🥰🥰
Love love love the vinty shelf 💕
Yesss 🙌🙌🙌
My daughter is making the switch from BBW to more serious frags and this video gives me great ideas for her. Thanks!
How lovely! I'm so happy this waa helpful. 🥰🥰🥰
Great video Veronica 💖❣️
Thank you, my darling Dorte! 🥰🥰🥰
@@VeronicaSays 🥰💖
Loved this. Beginners list is invaluable. Can hardly wait for the starters kit.
Thank you so much! 💖🥰 I'm looking forward to thinking about what a starter list would look like. Any recommendations?
@@VeronicaSays The categories are good. Candy, Gourmand & Sweet are still big so the differences and then safe choices. Sandalwood, patchouli & musk are good separated. Still "hippie" vibes following them around, leery about "dirty.". I know you don't do many "under $20" scents but starters are either strict budgeters or scared, either way, don't want to spend a lot on an experiment. Links to decants for the "not to be missed" or "the best choice?" Short explanation of what each genre entails. Confusion around fresh/green/clean/herbal. Oriental not always white floral. LOL Turning into a two-parter.
My collection is very small, specific and strictly scent driven. I have no idea where they fall in strength or notes so can't reco with those parameters. If you like, I can email what I have and why I chose them. You put in a lot of work, I'll do the same for you. :)
I was looking at my tray when you mentioned Lalique le Parfum, so Lalique it is! I’m not late to the video btw, just watching a second time!
I watched and thumbed up the video, but I must have been half asleep or distracted because I barely remember it, and your videos deserve better than that! So I’m trying to be a better student of perfume this time around. 😊
I did buy Tocade on your recommendation, and I somehow still really like that gaudy bottle. 😂
Hi Stacy! 💖 Oh how sweet are you? Thank you for returning to the video. I hope you never feel obligated to leave a comment, although I always love when you do. 🙏🙏🙏 So glad you're enjoying Tocade (and the strange bottle too 😆)! 🥰🥰🥰
Wonderful video! I am not exactly new to fragrance, but def not a big collector. I have my eye on that TH Soleil Neige. I’ve smelled it in Sephora a few times. Going to rewatch this and take some notes (NPI 😂).
Thank you, Sharon! 💖 Soleil Neige is quite underrated in my opinion. So lovely! What does NPI mean?
Enjoying the "perfume safari" very much Veronica 😂 💖
Thank you, my fellow adventurer! 😂 No animals were harmed in the filming of this video!🤣🤭🥳
@@VeronicaSays 😂😂😂
If this captures your post-declutter collection (i.e. what we can see on the shelves, not just the ones you talked about), I'd say you did a great job of pruning! You also mentioned one that hadn't been on my radar (Soleil Neige) that I will have to try. Great video!
Hi Paula! 💖 Yes, the ongoing "pruning" is starting to show results. Everything feels much more orderly now. Soleil Neige is underrated for sure - really great! 🤩🤩🤩
I'm new to the fragrance world and it's nice to see some different fragrances mentioned. I just received Dolce Vita from Dua. OMG, it's a bright citrus and vanilla. Not super sweet. So beautiful and so perfect for the warm climate I live in.
Welcome to weird wild wonderful world of fragrance! Thanks so much for watching. 🥰 Sounds like you found a great Dua! Enjoy it! 💖💖💖
Every time I hear someone talk about Teo Cabanel it makes me want it sooo much. It’s sounds amazing. I gotta get my nose on it. I enjoyed the “safari”!
Thanks for going on this adventure with me! 🥳 Cafe Cabanel is so cozy and warm. 🥰💖
I fell in love with La Belle when I smelled it in store! I can’t wait to add her to my collection 😩
Yesss! So pretty! 💖🥰
Loved the “perfume safari”!
Thank you, Mariana! 😁😁😁
Looks great, Veronica! Please don't risk your life on that step stool lol...I'm a shorty too. Fun seeing what survived the cut! xx
I got hazardous duty pay for my stunt activities 😆😆😆 Hello, my fellow shortie!
Hello Richmond neighbor! I loved this video. Your fragrances are so unique and you explain them so well. I really enjoy your choices because they aren’t the same hyped up fragrances on other channels I see to ad nauseum. I’ve been burned a few times in blind buying a few of these hyped fragrances. It was my choice to purchase so I blame myself instead of the you tuber who promoted it. Your safari journey kept me in stitches!😂 If you ever fall I know many docs and nurses in the ER at Chippenham and I can certainly hook you up! Lol.I used to work in the cardiac ICU and cardiac surgery pre/post area. I look forward to seeing your videos.❤️ Regards, Jeanette
Hi Jeanette! 💖 I feel comforted knowing you and your medical entourage are nearby to assist me in case of a perfume emergency! 😆😆😆 I am about a 15 min drive from Chippenham, and hope I never have to visit. 😊 BTW, we are all susceptible to hyped up fragrances. I have certainly recommended some that viewers have totally hated and vice versa. Eeeek! It's the way the perfume thing works, I suppose. But I do like to share a wide variety of choices for different tastes and wallets. 💯🎊👌
I spy with my little eye….that Tocade bottle! 😆 I just purchased Rosendo Mateu 6. It was a love at first sniff for me. I would love to see a video of your vintage fragrances.
Yesss Tocade! 🥰🥰🥰 She was featured here. No 6 is fabulous! 💖💖💖 Have you seen the 80s and 90s videos? Most of the vintage-y ones are mentioned in those two videos.
Thanks for taking us on this safari Veronica! It was a fun trip through your fragrances! It sounds like if you decide to do a declutter video, it could be epic! When I think about easy reach fragrances they are usually not my most complex fragrances. They are ones I know people like and are not going to offend in certain situations. Things that smell like clean musk are easy choices. People love to smell vanilla, so that is another easy choice. Light florals tend to be popular as well. I saw the commentary on Black Orchid and whoah! I am surprised more men aren't wearing it because if that is true, then women should love that scent on a man. 😆Men should hate that scent on a woman. That truffle note is pretty savoury though. I thought it was stinky feet but was really something else. 😅
Have a super day!
- Jenn
Heeeey Jenn! Thanks for going on Safari with me! 😂 I enjoyed being a tour guide. Yes, easy reaches are totally ones that most other people would enjoy. Tom Ford's vision for Black Orchid... oh my! 😵😵😵 I can't unsee those notes! Pun intended. 🤣
I just wore my Musc Noir Rose yesterday. It’s so beautiful! ❤️😍
Yes it is! Magnificent fragrance! 💖🥰
Lots of great gems.🎉
Thank you! 🙏🥰
I also am vertically challenged! Good job! I had a great time!!
Hi Sandy! 💖 We shorties have to stick together 😂😂😂 Glad you enjoyed the video! 🥰
It´s so easy to get overwhelmed with fragrances especially trying to describe them!
You are so right! 💯
Miss V...thanks for risking your life on the step stool...lol. Would luv a "starter kit" video. PS...would luv a video of your complete vintage fragrance collection 😍
Hi Christine! 💖 Thanks for caring about my shorty-girl safety 😆😆😆 I have the starter kit video on a lineup for this year. Have you my 80s and 90s videos? I talk about most of the vintage ones in those two videos.
Honestly, I would buy that 'Angels' Share' for the bottle alone! You've shown so many scents that I want to try.....
The bottle IS pretty dang cool! 🤩🤩🤩
Great video! I really enjoy your content, I just think it's so fun and always great stuff that I haven't necessarily heard of before. I have been debating if I should even try for Rouge Malachite, or if I should just spring for the dupe you talked about for it? How is the dry down on it? I still feel like a beginner, and have a baby collection. Not trying to go crazy with it... Yet 😂
Thanks so much, Sarah! 💖🥰 We're alllll still beginners in our own ways. Rouge Malachite is a floral gem, especially in the dry down. However, it's super pricey so if you're unsure I suggest getting a decant first or trying the dupe I shared. The dupe is spot on! Luxury Rouge by Riiffs.
I’m a shorty too (5’1” and my little girl I can tell is going to be taller like my sister who is 5’9”). Enjoying your video as always. I finally ordered myself a Christmas gift…a small bottle of Lira!!! Yay! I grabbed a couple cheapies too but Lira just arrived and I love it and already wish I had gotten the bigger bottle. I primarily buy “cheapies” but still found Lira under $100 for the little bottle so thought that was great.
Hello my fellow shortie! 🎊🥳💖 Lira for less than $100 is awesome. Good job! I'm always hunting down a good bottle bargain! God bless your daughter! May she grow tall and gorgeous!
I loved the safari! Looking for your DUA recs. I did write down the ones you mentioned today! Thanks
Hi there! 💖 My other top Dua recs are in my coffee and chocolate videos. Thanks for watching! 🥰🥰🥰
I had a sample of Dua's Lemon Cake and Vanilla that Veronica mentioned. It was absolutely delicious and bought a bottle. My bottle has not lived up to the greatness of the sample yet but is getting better as it sits. I own A LOT of Dua and know you have to let some oxidize but that bottle is annoying me.
@@nicholeh1280 the bottles are just so gaudy. 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
I loved your safari!!!🎉🎉❤❤😂😂😂
Thanks for going on this excursion with me, Nancy! 😁😁😁
@@VeronicaSays ❤
Very enjoyable as usual. I picked up Boucheron Feve Tonka de Canaima based on your suggestion and it's pretty.
Thank you! 💖🥰 I'm so glad you enjoy it. 🥳🥳🥳
Where?? I’d love to find it but I’m at a loss. Thanks!
Unfortunately, it's sold out everywhere right now. But I suggest looking in another month or two on the Google shopping tab.
Muy interesante el safari Vero! Me gusto mucho.
Hola Dennise! Thank you for "traveling" through my collection with me! 💖🤩
LOVE this video! Your commitment to that step stool is admirable! 😂🥰 My Flowerbomb got a bit flat after the 5+ year mark, too! Kind of a bummer considering the pricepoint and the fact that so many other fragrances stay “fresh” for much longer.
Thank you, Brooke! 💖🥰 Yeah, bummer about Flowerbomb. Sometimes fragrances that have "fresh" notes flatten more quickly than the deeper more resinous fragrances. Sigh.
@@VeronicaSays that makes sense!!! Never thought of it that way.
Thanks for sharing your video take care ❤
Thank you, Pamela! 🥰💖
Happy Belated Birthday!!💗
Thank you Carmen 🥰🥰🥰
This is one of my favorite perfume videos I’ve seen! Thanks for the perfume safari lol you are amazing! ❤ please let me know your favorite middle eastern feminine perfumes from fragrance net, I do not like masculine type I bought Ejaazi and hate it so much
Hi Maria! Thanks for joining me on this perfume "adventure"! 😄 I have a Middle Eastern fragrance video that I will link here. All my gems are in that video: th-cam.com/video/WTUE7X45Lhk/w-d-xo.html
Loved the ''perfume safari''. It was nice to get suggestions for different sub groups of fragrances. I haven't been collecting for long and like the fact you include all price points and some fragrances other chanels don't talk about. Your comments while holding the La Belle bottles had me laughing...
Poor girl got groped on camera! She can press charges now! 😆😆😆 Thank you so much for joining me on this perfume "adventure." 🥰🥰🥰
@@VeronicaSays It's been so fun to watch different videos by different TH-camrs. The comments sections are always so fun to read too. I just had to get in on all that fun! 😁
@@CatherineBriseboisCatWoods absolutely! We have lots of fun in the comments
you are soooo funny!! Thanks for all the safari-jokes...hilarious! Greetings from Sweden
Hi Marie! 🥰 Awww thank you! Glad you enjoy the goofy humor! 🤣🤣🤣
Here for this🎉
Hi Maude! 💖💖💖
I am with you on this.. Thanks for risking your life (btw m also 5'3")😅😅
Hello, my fellow shortie! 🥰 I'm here for you guys! 🤣
Whooo, this is an upgrade from my usual safari trips😂😂. I see a lot that are on my wishlist🤩🤩. I would love to hear your review on Wirtanen as it has been on my wishlist for 2 years but I don’t want to blind buy it🤔🤔. I’m patiently waiting for my sample of RM no.6 with my order😱😱. I just want to ask whether the Tiare and Ylang-Ylang are prominent in Coco Vanille cos I decluttered Holidays because of those strong notes? Awesome collection and unique interpretation as always👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
Hi Pinkie! 💖 Thanks for joining me on this "excursion." 😂 For Coco Vanille, I don't think the florals are prominent, morel Ike supporting actors. My opinion. Wirtanen... is a like, not a love, right now. I'll keep testing more. Interesting scent and worth sampling for sure! I'll report out in a future video about this one. 🥰
I can see how the first idea would have been overwhelming lol. Just watching this second option video shows how much work you put in.
It really was. I kept starting and stopping the video and feeling like I would never get through it. 🤦♀️😆
This is my kind of safari!
Buckle in that seat belt! 🤣🤣🤣
I really love the scent and lasting power of that Kate Spade New York... blue bottle! It's a good good one!
Yessss it is really so goooood! A hidden gem for sure. 💖💖💖
which one? there are several in blue bottles.
Oh I didn't know the name of the blue bottle I saw-It's Sparkle by Kate Spade;)
Yes, New York Sparkle.
My kind of video, to be honest the average person who is not a fragrance “collector “ is just looking for a simple fragrance that smells good 😊 these are easy breezy choices ❤️😉 ( glad you added the coconut fragrances 🤣
Exactly! Our new fragrance friends just wanna smell good. No need to complicate that with weird fragrances (even though I started with Black Orchid. Yikes! 😱). Gotta get those Coconuts in! 🥳🥳🥳
@@VeronicaSays you know what’s crazy! I had no interest EVER in black orchid, the way it’s been described has been pretty scary BUT I recently was sent a decant and I expected the worst and got the best! 😂 I love it! ( sounds like a video title “prepare for the worst and expect the unexpected 😭” you did right with that one anyone who wants to smell different or intriguing would appreciate that fragrance!😉
@Sunny Scents get out of here!! 😱 You like it?! Woohoo! I'm so excited to hear that! 💖💖💖
I just got Nishane Hundred Silent Ways and enjoy it so much. I am surprised how much I love Serge Lutens house- just ordered one more to make 4. I think they appeal to me because they are not linear and seem multi dimensional on me anyway. Also surprisingly am digging KK Pure Honey - at first it threw me, then it slayed! I add it as another layer along with my rose scents and its a honey rose dream. Cost about $14 for a big bottle.
Hundred Silent Ways is universally wonderful! 💖 Good for you for exploring Serge Lutens. Lots of interesting and artistic picks from that house. And hooray for Pure Honey! Woohoo!!
I still would have binge watched for 3hrs plus 😊
Awwww thank you, Cee 🥺🥺🥺
Great video 👍
I think Si by Armani is a beautiful but safe fruity perfume. I ignored it for years and then someone (may be you Veronica!) gave it a thumbs up and I was so pleasantly surprised and I wear it a lot. I also think everyone should have the original Eau Savage by Dior (Edmond Roudnitska) as it is a masterpiece and anyone can wear it.
Hey Rebecca! 🥰 Thank you! 💖 I have definitely talked about Si a few times. It's so good. Thanks for the Dior recommendation too! 💯💯💯
I agree that Si is a classic that a new fragrance collector should consider.
@@pkswafford Yes, so glad I took the time to test it finally! :)
🤣 I love La belle too, I think I need to bring that went out cause it’s been a while since I’ve used it.
She's such a beauty! 💖💖💖
Hey honey! 👋🏽❣️ great picks for beginners 👍🏼 I remember being all over the place and trying to learn what i like when I started 🤦🏻♀️😂 I’m definitely going to add Narciso Musc Rose Noir for the spring. I like Soleil Neige im going to see if I can find a bottle at the CCC store 😉
Hi Denise! I still feel like I'm all over the place in some ways! 😂 Musc Noir Rose is a great go-to. Is your Cosmetics Company Store nearby? Mine is an hour away. I wish it was a bit closer. I love it! 💖💖💖
@@VeronicaSays mine is about 30 mins away. Jessica told me that we can call other ones locations to see if they have what we want and they will ship it to us. I haven’t tied that yet though.
@@DeniseAdore now that's a dangerous tip! 😂
Veronica, that hole in my backyard to save my perfumes in case of emergency is getting wider and deeper couple of inches every day😆...
My dear do not worry about the length of your videos, I am watching till the end, you deserve that.
Here is my run down on perfumes you mentioned and some you did not mention but they were screaming (what about me....pick me):
La Belle, Libre Intense, Delina Exclusive, Bottega Veneta, Black Opium (few flankers), D&G The Only One EDP, Valentino Donna.
New aquisitions that I would love to hear your reviews:
Electimuss Trajan, Rosendo Mateu 5.
Just added Guerlain Angelique Noir to my wish list.
Hiiiii Fatema! I'm so sorry about the condition of your backyard! 😆😆😆 Hope your insurance can cover it. Thank you for watching videos to the end - you are so sweet! I've reviewed Trajan and Rosendo Mateu No 5 in previous videos. I think both are really good, solid additions to a fragrance collection! I enjoy them! 🥰🥰🥰
Nice video ❤
Thank you 💖
Pas ce soir is absolutely gorgeous and Jimmy Choo I want Choo and forever are beautiful as well
Yessss! You can't go wrong with either one. 👍👍👍💖💖💖
I found what you had to relay about the milk fragrances fascinating. I’ve only tried Comodity Personal, and love the idea but there’s a strange something in there that is masculine & reminds me of BO 😒 Wanna try Fresh Cream next time I’m at Ulta. Luv the white milky bottle you have.
I’m gonna try the Acqua di Gioria.
Oh no! Not BO! 😲😂 Yikes. Hope you enjoy sampling Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere!
@@VeronicaSays you know, I don’t notice it anymore. It was only when it was new. Maybe it just had to get used to it. It was so different than what I normally choose for Perfume. I like it now.
Florabotanica is the entry point for people who like the clean/refreshing fragrances but want to try something more “pretty” or unique. Green rose scents sent me down the vetiver and green fig paths, but those can be off putting for a newbie.
Hi Rebecca! 🥰 Yes, this is a unique and interesting choice! Thanks for sharing! 💖
Thank you for risking your life for us! Lol 😂😂😂
I'm here for my people! 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂🙌😍
Yes Call me by your name...on my list...it's very good and Mrs.Jessica, sent me a sample of both
For sure! And Jessie is such a sweetheart.
When you said the ring light was facing you, I laughed so hard😂 not because I'm laughing at you but because that's the crap I do ALL THE TIME!
Omg as was typing this you talked about fondling her 😂 you're literally cracking me up and I'm trying not to wake up my husband.
😂😂😂 If people understood all the goofy stuff that goes into the making of ONE video... 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️😆😆😆
Btw, you are the only fragrance reviewer who mentioned Stephanie Ledda’s perfume and did a video talking about it. She is quite an entrepreneur and also has her own wines! 😋
I think she is a super duper cutie. Been watching her for years. I didn't know she had a line of wines! Say what?!
@Veronica Says yes and it actually came out before her perfume 😉
So many on this list that became favorites when I started my collection. I missed your leather video, but have you tried Creme de Cuir from BDK? It's actually a suede note, but it's soft and paired with a pineapple note that makes for one of my favorite "never would have thought to put those together" combos.
I made La Belle my scent of the evening after I saw you fondling yours (kidding). I seem to be the only one to smell it, but I get a strong cinnamon note from it that was actually a little much for me at first. Now that it's colder though it's one of the things I love the most. It doesn't have the boozy aspect, but in my own categorization it's in the same fragrance vibe collection as Angel's Share for that spiciness that balances out the fruity pear.
Hey there! I have not tried Creme de Cuir but it's on my short list to try. La Belle - the poor bottle is going to press charges on me. 🥴🥴🥴 Cinnamon, eh? I can imagine that. Not all of the notes are public on that one (or most fragrances, for that matter). I can totally see how it's a similar vibe to Angels' Share. I hear you on that!
@@VeronicaSays 😂 no face means no complaints. Source: a few accidentally decapitated Barbies.
Definitely don't think any of the LaBelles have all the notes. The La Fleur Terrible flanker is another one where I pick up a strong ginger note that's also not listed. But both are slightly spiced favorites, even if everyone thinks I'm having scent hallucinations when I bring them up
@@ymdroid73 the faceless victims 😆😲😵🥴 Oh my! I really want to try Fleur Terrible. What a name, by the way!
Great video! Would like to see your thoughts on wirtanen by tiziana terenzi.
Thank you, Natalie! I like Wirtanen and am still getting to know it. Should be in a video in a few weeks. 💖🥰
What exhibit will be next? Haha, I couldn’t resist. I enjoyed every moment and I’m so glad no ER visits were necessary.
😆😆😆 Oh my goodness! Boarding will begin in 15 minutes for our flight ✈️ to the Amazon. 🤣 I am glad I survived the steps tool! Thank you for watching, Faith! 💖💖💖
Great choices for the beginners, ok you convinced me to get burberry body although i'm deep in the vortex of nische. 🤭🤭🤭Don't tell my hubby.
It'll be our little secret! 🤫🤫🤫 You buy what tickles your fancy!
@@VeronicaSays just buying, trying, keeping what I like and selling what I don't.
@chinee I'm in that mode too. Fluidity = zen.
@@VeronicaSays i'm with you on that.
Hilarious a giraffe in the safari. You're kind of a fan of Dua 🤭
That bottle is like a skyscraper. 😆 I like certain Duas but I'm letting the rest go. Those bottles irk my eyes. 🤫🤦♀️🥴
The safari cracked me up! Great video!! Would you please do a bridal fragrance video?? Getting married this year and I’m looking for something new and special. Thanks!
Hi Diana! Thank you soooo much! 💖🥰 What season are you getting married in and what is your venue like (beach, formal rental hall, garden, etc.)?
@@VeronicaSays - fall, outdoors (late Oct in TN, so the leaves will be starting to turn)…we’re almost 60 so we’re eloping! But I still want it to be special!
Oh I love this so much! Let me give this some thought and I'll be back with a few suggestions. Yippee!!
Oh two other questions - what kind of fragrances do you prefer? Example - florals, woody, spicy, sweet. And do you prefer subtle or strong fragrances?
@@VeronicaSays - I think something white floral, maybe a little sweet, enough projection and sillage that my man will want to whisk me right away, but not too much to knock out the officiant, 😆. Love Rouge Malachite, but it’s too much for that day. Idk if white florals are more spring/summer? Love Angel’s Share (totally different, but more fall) but again, too heavy. Hope that helps! Can’t wait for your ideas!! (Mon Guerlain EDP would be PERFECT (and picture worthy), but I already wear that.
🤣😂🦓🐆🐘🦒🐒🌴🌳 best safari guide I ever had 😝
Hiiiii Danit! 🦁 🦒 🐘 Thanks for joining me on today's adventure! 🤣🤣🤣
@@VeronicaSays 😂👌😜
Veronica- that Cartier Panthere.... man I love that stuff! It is a strange one right??? She sits with my heavy hitters but other than that I don't know exactly what she is all together!
Hey Jennifer! 💖 Girl! That's EXACTLY how I feel about the bottle! 😄
maybe sometime you could do a luxury brand review, top favorites - thanks
I'll keep that in mind! Thanks for the idea! 🥰💖
Loved this., although huge fight with my hubs later...I think it's over rose oud being more femi5, lol, it's our valentines present for whomever! Thinking ne, lol..cheers babe!
Thank you! 🥰 Which Rose Oud were you arguing over? Do tell!
@@VeronicaSays killian...🌹
Hello Veronica!
I'm checking out these three that you reviewed; TOCADE
LALIQUE LP
BURBERRY
BODY
I think I would recommend considering likes and loves from family and friends that are enjoyable. Then consider the notes via FG, to find similar fragrances.
I liked your personal suggestions. Most of all, a good everyday scent.
Early on my older cousin introduced me to TABU. I always loved the spicy dry down.
* JESSICA McClintock was an easy daily reach. I continue to use both, but JM is a safe bb.
Hey Francine! I'd be curious to get your impressions of Lalique Le Parfum and Tocade, in particular. Jessica McClintock was all the rage in the early 2000s! I remember lusting after the fragrance after sniffing it at the mall. 🥰💯
@@VeronicaSays I just did my search on FG.
I'm migraining........but muddled through on notes, etc. on Tocade and Lalique LP, and Burberry Body.
I can't buy any of them. One had geranium, one had rhubarb, and another had pink pepper. I can't tolerate any of those notes. So disappointed Veronica!

I recently bought JM roller pens @ ThePerfumeSpot.
I have ordered four times since the Summer from this NJ company. Navigating the website AND their soup to nuts inventory is odd, but shipping, packaging, and customer SVC. is all good.
They have lower prices on many things. They have both niche and designer. I bought "me to me" Xmas gift, MOLINARD VAN. FRUITEE.
I had sampled it.
It's a beast for dried fruit and
vanilla! A GOOD recommendation for 3 reasons; A WANNA BE VANILLA FAN (ME!)
its gourmand and low cost. $39 for 3oz I think.
It's like being in a candy store awhile, you leave, and your clothing and hair retain the aroma. It's not perfumie per se.
I like it a lot at home. It's sweet and a mood lifter.
Francine
@ggbice oh darn! Sorry to hear that none of them will work out for you. AND, more importantly, hope your migraine disappears! I have ordered from The Perfume Spot. I do enjoy perusing their inventory! 👌👌👌
I’ve been into perfumes since I was a kid in the 70s and 80s.
That said, an “easy reach” for me (a 51 year old with diverse tastes) isn’t necessarily everyone else’s easy reach. Diesel Loverdose is an easy one SJP Lovely is good too. AG Cloud is a no-brainer too.
Hey Tiffany! 💖 I agree on the easy reach being so different person to person. You've got some lovely easy reaches though! 🥰
Angels share is the Queen. 👸🏻 ❤
Absolutely! 💯💯💯
