So my perfume collection has been evolving over the last few months and my tastes have changed a lot since last year. I still have some oldies and goodies that I will never let go of - and my currently collection is looking so much like me. However, these are ones that for one reason or other are not working out.

Good 😊 morning all!:) I hope you enjoy this little declutter:). Favorite fall scents to follow 💗 🤗 🍁 🍃
I'm in the same boat. My palette just changed so much that I don't know who I am anymore.
Have you found a home for Dama bianca or not yet ? :o !!
Awwww, at times like these, I wish I lived in Canada 😂😂😂there’s a couple I could definitely purchase from you! But wow, that’s a good declutter! Just did mines this weekend as well, expecting a few in the mail, gotta make some room!
Where do you sell? Do you ship to 🇺🇸
This is why I'm such an advocate for sampling EXTENSIVELY before buying bottles lol. I can't even count how many times I thought I absolutely loved a fragrance, only to revisit the sample a few days/weeks later and find that I definitely don't like it as much as I thought I did. First sniff can be quite misleading sometimes.
This is so true and the same has happened to me. I get so excited about a fragrance at first sniff and I’m immediately ready to buy a full bottle. But I have learned to pump my brakes 😂
100%. And yet, sometimes a perfume is love at first sniff and continues to be a love for many years. It's so funny how the experience can be so different for every perfume :)
Yeah but its getting harder and harder. Macys everything is behind the counter now so you have to wait in line (holiday season) to try to sample perfumes one at a time
My goodness there are some absolute gems in here. It's like a treasure trove. Lol.
🤣 thankful I have more treasures on my tray haha 😂
I honestly adore your ruthlessness when you declutter. Being so in touch with your sincere thoughts on a scent and not letting the hype surrounding a certain fragrance bias your decision is so refreshing. Bravo for being so selective and only keeping what you absolutely love!
Dang, Girl!!!! Epic declutter! I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a declutter this big! Not in the number of fragrances but in the hype surrounding the fragrances you cut.
Have you considered taking first decants for yourself before letting go bottles that you are on the fence about? Then you could go back to them if you feel like you made a mistake.
Good idea
💯
The great thing about significant declutters is that they justify future hauls.
Looking forward to your recommendations for fall scents!
I totally understand how much taste can change. As someone who does not like vanilla in perfumes (and this seems not to change) my collection is quite different from yours but I always like watching your videos.
It is a jaw dropping perfume decluttering haul! So many amazing perfume gems here. I understand, you do have to love your fragrances or it just becomes paperweights.
This WAS a shocking and jaw dropping declutter but so satisfying to watch what you know works and what you've moved away from!
Really good to hear these standards! I’m just starting my new collection and don’t want to have any I don’t love everything about! Thank you 🥰
I'm also forcing myself to only keep my absolute loves otherwise my perfume collection would be astronomical and I don't want that. It's not a numbers game for me. Love this video!!
I totally agree it’s not about the number or the bottle is only about the scent!!!😊🔥
I love your de clutter videos so much!! Always love hearing your thoughts 💕
After watching your channel I’m not surprised by your de clutters. I love that you only keep what you really love. I’ve been eyeing Flower bomb nectar. I think I’m going to get it. Great video.
I LOVE your declutter videos always motivates me to get my stuff organized and get rid of the stuff I don’t wear or use 😉👍
Morning Ilythia! Yes, if you don't love it, send it on its way❤ I just did a huge declutter of all my things (clothes, shoes, perfume, makeup, skincare, costume jewelry) this week. Feels so good to pass them on to others.❤❤❤
♥️I definitely hear you at 5:45! I ended up purchasing Delina La Rose and you later de cluttered it… however that does not mean it’s bad, your just evolving your taste and finding the best perfumes for you! We are just hopping on the journey with you to find our gems along the way. Even though you de cluttered it, my love for it never disappeared as I love more subtle perfumes. Without your review I wouldn’t have discovered what I view as the best perfume in my collection
I purchased Delina as well and I hate the punch of rhubarb. I also have other hyped up perfumes that I regret buying.
I almost made popcorn for this because there's some real SHOCKERS in here!! Lol I loved it!
lol :)
Your declutters are always epic and so fun to watch 😍. I had a sample of Tihota and had very similar experience with it, it was too overwhelming
I'm glad I'm not the only person. At first sniff from my sample I had, I loved it - it was one of the best vanillas I've ever smelled and it still is. I just can't wear that much vanilla I've found out :)
Great video! Amazing how you can let go of these things.
So excited to see this declutter you have the best ones
Ahh Ilythia I got flower bomb nectar from your recommendations! ♥️ such a compliment getter
You are right about V&R FB nectar, it’s super sweet but I love it so much, have a 50ml bottle and plan on getting the biggest next time.
I loved this video. First, when you are a fragrance enthusiast you are around fragrances a lot, maybe switching up 2 or 3 times per day, sampling a lot, and expanding your horizons. Tastes can change pretty fast under those circumstances! And maybe your best point is that we need to love everything about the fragrance from opening to the very end. After listening to you, I realize that there are certain fragrances I am trying to "explain to myself", meaning justifying something about them so as to overcome a negative or blending with something else so that I can force it to work. As you say, just wear the ones you love and don't rationalize or try to teach yourself to like a fragrance more....
100% thank you so much for your understanding. I know not everyone can understand how you can love a perfume and suddenly not - tastes can change and they can change quickly. Also - sometimes a perfume is great but it doesn't mean you're going to keep it. I have to 10/10 love them to keep them.
Oh I really enjoyed this. There were some that I’ve been considering buying. But not anymore…❤️💙💜
I've been decluttering loads recently too and I think I'm down to about 10 perfumes now! 🙈 xx
It’s crazy because I just finished watching Olliesmom’s recent declutter video and she decluttered La Belle Le Parfum and Italica as well. I’m with you though; I prefer Lira over Italica. And I like the original Black Opium as well.
wow, beautiful collection if let gos. enjoy your new looking collection! :)
I don’t know how to feel about this. The ones you decluttered are dream fragrances for most. Not only because it is hyped but because it really is a good fragrance. Just make sure you don’t bring any of these back to your collection or else we will be so confused.
You introduced me to Greenwich Village and I love wearing it!! 🥰
Same here
I feel the same about LaBelle le parfum and Chloe...I never loved the le parfum and I woke up one day and just didn't like any of the Chloe perfumes anymore.
I saw your video where you mentioned that I think??? Yeah isn’t it crazy you can just wake up and not like it anymore :/
I really enjoy your declutter videos and agree that you have to be true to yourself! I'm currently exploring some clean brands such as Ellis Brooklyn and Phlur--there is also a new Chloe out called Chloe Naturelle (green ribbon) with organic roses!🌹
I want the new Chloe, but I will wait for spring 😀
Wow you are not kidding that is definitely a ginormous declutter! Now there’s more room for got 10 out of 10 fragrances for you 🥰 I can definitely relate with you , when the stores open back up it was like we have been deprived for years from smelling fragrances🤣
thanks so much girl :)
For me, it's just watching the growing pile that is so satisfying.
Ahhh I would love to try a few, don’t throw away 😫🥲
Tbh: Dama Bianca is my fave. I own so many perfumes but I love only 2 of them:
1. Dama Bianca
2. Bal D’Afrique
I’m in the habit of buying decants instead of bottles. I already have enough fragrances that I love. If I finish the decant, I might consider a bottle.
I have sold perfumes that I loved and wore for years. Sometimes it just happens and we fall out of love with a certain dna. Especially when we are crazy about perfumes and test so much buy so much and our tastes evolves.
One hour ago?! Nice, I was just opening YT and thinking I wish there's a new video from you. 🤗 Also, congrats on your sponsor!!!
Thank you so much :)
I have the same experience with 99% of Jo Malones giving me a headache. My theory is it’s the limonene that most of them seem to contain
I understand Tihota. It smothers me with its simplicity. Almost like I spilled high quality vanilla extract on myself. Even when layering.
I would keep the Choe because I love the bottle. It's so Art Deco, which I love. ☺⚘🌿💕
I am a big fan of declutters and I have been doing them since I was 15-16...almost 20 years, omg 😱
I declutter my fragrances even if I "only" have around 30, I don't want to have bottles around if I don't use what's inside and I don't want to waste perfumes since they can go off with time. I sold a big bottle of Ani from Nishane for example: beautiful scent, but it didn't really speak to me. No regrets so far!
I had to let go of Tihota as well for the excess of warm musk and felt so guilty bc of the hype it has 😭😵💫 (Obvious Perfumes Une Vanille is a way cleaner vanilla perfect for layering and not overwhelming at all if anyone else found the musks in Tihota a bit too much and wanted a vanilla!!)
Great declutter. I bought too many perfumes after things opened up last year. I am also having a slight regret with Italica. I have been layering it successfully with other scents, however, I agree with you that a scent should stand alone. I have 50 perfumes, but only four that I truly love.
What are the 4 loves? 🙂Curious 🥰
@@sidselalbertsen898 same, curious to know me too.
Another curious cat here
Not you decluttering Tihota after I got a decant of it and I think it's actually scheduled to arrive later today. 😂 I thought about testing it out for a while then I saw you mention it in a video. Although our taste in perfume isn't exactly the same, we tend to have the same taste when it comes to vanillas. I guess it's not a terrible thing if I hate it. I won't put a huge dent in my budget from wanting a full bottle lol
You are so brave!
Can’t believe you decluttered Tihota! 🙈
i really need to declutter as well. but man i would like to have tihota, italica and dama blanca for so long ;-)
Our tastes are so similar. I either decluttered, thought about decluttering, or sampled and decided not to buy most all of these. I will say that Musk Therapy is the only Initio I currently own (I decluttered 4 others from them).
I have a sample of Musk Therapy coming - I can't wait to try it.:)
Wow there are lot gems in there 💎😍
I love Dama Bianca! Lol. But it is a bit different. I didn’t like it on initial spray, but I kept coming back to it, so I bought it (after finishing the sample I had).
Literally every time I wear Greenwich Village I get a compliment, but I understand not keeping something you don’t reach for.
And lastly…I’ve come to realize that Gucci doesn’t work for me either. I have two Gucci fragrance (one being Guilty) that I never wear.
I dont generally like the Bond 9 packaging, which turns me off from reaching to spray it.
We seem to have very similar tastes. If you're desperate for a Jo Malone that works, check out Fig and Lotus Flower, Dark Amber and Ginger Lily or Jasmine Sambac and Marigold. I've owned most of the Jo Malone collection in the past and these three are my favourites.
Thank you so much for those recommendations :)
Hello Ilythia, love you video, may I ask where do you sell your perfumes. Thank you.
All of these analogies apply to other life scenarios :) “if you dont know, it’s a no”♥️♥️
exactly!!! So many things right??? if you have to ask yourself - then chances are, it's a no.
Hey you are keeping the new Miss Dior!!! Or did you already take it back? Great declutter! I need to do this!
I already returned the new one!:)
I totally agree about Dama Bianca, do not blind buy!!
Wow. So many of these came as a shock to me. Like Greenwich Village and Tihota. 😮
I'm also shocked about Greenwich Village 😯
I really wanna get the sol de janeiro cheriosa 62 fragrance from your video a few days ago but I’m still on the fence about it 🥲
Hi there! Thank you for your video (videos in general as well, they are so enjoyable).
If you haven’t found a home for Tihota and or Lavande Trianon, please let me know. I have been trying to find a bottle of these two without much success...
I think you are very brave to let go of so many gems. I too had to let go of a few bottles lately. I agree that you should only keep what you absolutely love.
Thank you for being such a great example of discipline!
Message her on Instagram to see if she still has them.... She usually sells them quickly
@@TheCutiepie2004 thank you for the tip!! She has probably sold them already at this point but it’s good to know next time she declutters 😆😆
Omg I wish I was a friend or family member 😂 a lot of gems going to new homes.
Hello, Is Bond 9 and/or the Tihota available ? Thanks , Ruth Goldsmith
I wish I could be 1/4 as decisive as you about decluttering anything. Hope you are able to sell for good prices.
Thank you! yes I make a lot of mistakes and bad blind buys sometimes lol. I've been practicing decluttering in my home life for years so it's pretty easy for me to let things go if they are not longer working :)
I got Mimosa and Cardamom based on other reviews one said that it smells like an expensive hotel - like you did - and another (the one that sold me) said that if they had children they would like them to remember them by this scent. So when I got it I loved the scent it reminded me something from my childhood -no association with hotels not sure why people use this phrasing to sell a scent as if I would like to smell like a hotel lobby. I ended up gifting my bottle to my mom as I think is a very motherly and comforting smell. No wonder why since cardamom contains the word mom haha ☺️
hahaha so funny. The hotel analogy. It is a comforting scent for sure. Yes cardamom and mom is a funny coincidence. I can see that for sure.
Woowww i love a lot of them, Flowerbomb nectar is my favorite perfume and i love BO intense as well 😍 Its a nice declutter 👌🏼
Good for you for being honest with yourself and us! I don't understand why anyone would be bothered by you decluttering YOUR perfumes, even if someone was influenced to buy a perfume bcus of you their opinion shouldn't change based off if you keep it or not 🤷🏽♀️ anyways... I hope to see minimal/ decluttering/ closet & home tour soon 😁🤍 God bless you!
Thank you so much that means a lot to me! 💕
@@thesimplechiclife 🥰🤍🥰🤍🥰
What do you do with these perfumes that you don't keep?
Vi Ilithya, are you selling this perfumes? If you do could you please tell me where? Thanks,
Same taste!!! I hated the blind buy victor nectar! Hated it
Pika fragrance review is the first channel that said DO NOT BLIND BUY XERJOFF, and now you say it as well, it's so strange that everyone on YT seems to like all of the same Xerjoff perfumes 🤔🤦🏻♀️
Yeah Pika is the only reviewer saying do not blind buy ANYTHING especially Xerjoff. Niche perfumes are so … interesting smelling. Doesn’t mean that is a good thing 😂 Not worth the gamble. And she was the only one she talked about different perfumes from everybody else. It’s the hype I think. If everybody talks about it it must be good/ mainstream right? But I do not think that is the case with niche. Plus a lot of reviewers receive these as PR so 😬
Omg I'm so shocked. There are at least 7 perfumes in there i would love to own. !!! Cant believe Rehab and Rose prick is going. You would love Musk therapy though. I dont like musk but I love Musk Therapy. Weird eh?
Give me your Greenwich village!!🤩
I keep going back and forth with ZEN.... sometimes I love it and other times I don't... I think that means declutter it already!! Lol
When will these be up on your poshmark? Do you use Mercari?
I don’t use mercari, we don’t have it here in canada
Nice declutter. I could have guessed all of this, but I also thought you were going to let go of Dolce&Gabbana Light blue forever and florabotanica.
Maybe she has already the light blue but why do you say this about florabotanica??? 👀
@@alepou200 Because I don't like it 🙈
@@milena3630 lol 😆
Wow I love La belle le parfum and Tihota Indult. Where are you selling it? I'm in Canada too and interested in those 2.
Reach out to her via Instagram to see what she has left
What do you do with the perfumes that you declutter? Do you sell them or give them away?
it depends - some I will gift others I will end up selling. The best if you are interested is to find me on instagram :)
Do you sell your decluttered fragrances? I lavendas Trianon is one of my favorite fragrances of all time. I absolutely love lavender though lol
She sells them, but one has to message her on Instagram
Wow! When you declutter, you declutter!! Lol. Have you found a home for Nuit et Confidence yet? ❤️
Not yet:)
Bond No 9 Greenwich Village is pretty similar to Nishane Hundred Silent Ways (at least to my nose). Does anyone else get that?
What do you do with the perfumes you declutter? Do you have a sale?
i either gift them to friends or family or I sell them privately depending :). Usually via instagram.
Sorry, but I don't unterstand your declutters about fragrances, which for weeks ago a big love were for you. Now I'am a little bit disappointed about this video
As I mentioned, they are still amazing fragrances; decluttering doesn’t mean they are not great perfumes. We all have a right to changing tastes and our collections evolve over time. I hesitate to even share declutters because some people like yourself leave comments like this; but my tastes and collection will evolve and I try to be as open and forthright with my audience as possible. It’s no skin off anyone’s back if i let something go, just as I don’t care what others let go 🤷🏻♀️. Thanks for your comment:)
This is why I can't bring myself to blind buy fragrances solely based on youtubers' recommendations. I'll snag a sample for sure if it sounds like it might be up my alley, but never a full bottle. With the rate at which most of these videos are being put out, there generally isn't sufficient time for them to test scents out long enough to know that they really love them.
I’m with you on this. I feel like if you’re always decluttering then you need to just buy decants to see if you will love it enough for a bottle. When I see too many declutters it becomes less authentic if that makes sense.
Where/how do you declutter your perfumes??? I would love to buy lavandes trianon!
She announces on instagram usually. Like you need to DM her and priority goes to Canadians.
You can message me privately if you’re interested in anything :)
Via Instagram:)
I blind buy of Portrait of a lady, and I get complements , but can’t get into it
Omg l love Lavandes.
I like italica xerjoff
Jo Malone gives me a headache as well. All the ones I’ve tried. Don’t know why but it’s a thing. I LOVE Dama Bianca though.
I’m trying to find your hair loss experience video and I can’t :( rally need some help with my significant hair loss. Can you point me in the right direction to find the video again please?
Message me dear!:) on Instagram :)
@@thesimplechiclife oh, I don’t have Instagram :(
OMG same! I guess stress did a number on my hair, I used to have really thick hair years ago and now...
Given how picky you are, I'd exercise more scrutiny before making a purchase.
Im sure you have a way of "letting go" of them getting a return on the investment though (selling them) so I suppose you're good.
Wait, I thought you also had Tribeca from bond no. 9.
Did you declutter it? Or am I mistaken and you never had it? ☺️
Decluttered due to not wearing enough
If you are getting rid of Guerlain Cuir Beluga i will purchase from you
I can’t believe you’re getting rid of all these gems. I would love to purchase a few from you if possible.
Message her through Instagram. That's how she sells them.
@@RachelDee Thank you 😊
Where do you sell them? Also do u ship to US?
Reach out to her via Instagram to see what she may have left. I don't think she ships/or prefers to ship to the U.S. tho
Give me the Jpg la belle intense😂😂 lol i love it
Do they make chloe absolu anymore?
It's discontinued but you may be able to hunt it out online.
Are you selling any of your declutter perfumes?
She sells them online. Reach out to her via Instagram to see what she has left
Flowerbomb Nectar!!! Noooooo!
OMG THIS IS EXTREME! WILL YOU BE SO KIND TO SEND IT TO THE PHILIPPINES? LOL !
Wait are these going in the trash? Woah
Gucci Guilty! 😥 yeaaah wow! Very easy to wear! Wow!
