“Exit the King” is closer to a chypre than a floral aldehyde IMO. It’s not particularly heavy and quite gorgeous. I really like “I am Trash” it has a springtime, floral, freshness. I really love Parfums de Nicolai “Cap Neroli”, “Angelys Pear” and “Fig Tea” in the spring. From Chanel of course I love 5, 19 and 22. My first fragrance was C5 extrait. My dad brought a bottle back from Paris for me and a bottle of “l’Air du Temps” parfum for my sister. “Joy” is another huge, floral aldehyde that is astonishingly bold and fresh at the same time. Aldehydes are a favourite scent family for me. They seem a little old fashioned to some people but to me they often represent the most beautifully composed fragrances. Thank you for highlighting them.
I agree! I am a fan of aldehydes as well. 💖💖💖 Many reviews highlight the chypre aspects of Exit the King, also. You're not alone. Wonderful that you have No 5 extrait! 🎉
@catherinelynnfraser2001 I've always been curious about Nicolai's “Fig Tea”, being a fig note lover...could you tell me if it leans green/woody or fruity/sweet/jammy along with the tea notes?
I have Dior Pure Poison and i don’t wear it often,but every time i do wear i get compliments,and my partner loves it on me. It is definitely crowd pleasing.
I used to drench myself in White Linen back in the day! Oops! I must test it next time I'm near an EL counter as I haven't smelt it in decades. Its lovely when you smell a fragrance that pings you back in time to past memories. Have a lovely weekend Veronica 💖💖
Prada La Femme was a shocker for me. I bought it not expecting to absolutely fall in love with it. I have over 200 perfumes and this is one I return to all the time. It is perfect for bedtime (yes, my husband finds it very sensual, and he finds Pure Pouson sexy, too!) and basically anytime of day, all year long. Just a great staple perfume! 💜
I recently discovered Chanel No. 5 eau premiere, and it is one of my top three perfumes in my collection. The aldehydes are less prominent and the florals are very creamy. I absolutely love it!
I love soapy clean floral! One of my faves are Clean Reserve Blonde Rose. So clean, soapy and floral. Definitely, a pretty girl scent. I’ll have to break out my Prada La Femme. Haven’t worn it in a while. I also love J. Lo Glow, clean orange blossom cleanliness. Alfred Sung Shi and Jewel are two other oldies but goodies too. 😊
Lumberjack here... The BEST thing about this video for me was the 'Respeck' that the person put on your name by knocking before they came in!!! That was sweet
Pikovaya Dama is such a beautiful fragrance. It was a big like for me, on my skin. But on my husband, it was LOVE, and he loves it too. 💜💚💛 AM Ceramic gives me the soapy experience. 🥰
Soapy florals ! Love them they’re so feminine and clean! So many loves of mine here and my fave from ypur list is Prada La Femme. The first time I tried it, I was in Rome, and the whole experience was just magical so I haaaaad to have and still wear it a lot and brings me so many memories ❤❤❤
I enjoy a good soapy clean floral from time to time. I love Rituals Ritual of Karma and Soleil d'Or. Both soapy clean type florals. and Clean Warm Cotton
I recently added Pure Poison to my collection & really hadn’t thought of it as a soapy scent - but it sure is comforting, sweet, lovely & beautiful. I like spraying my PJs with it before bed❤or on days I just need a little something ‘comforting’. Otherwise, I don’t have any of the others you’ve mentioned here; but, since I love Pure Poison, you’ve definitely piqued my curiosity to try them!😍
Hey Veronica! My mother in law was having a yard sale some time ago. And I spotted an Estee Lauder box that looked brand new. It was a White Linen body powder…with the pompom applicator. It has a very beautiful shimmer to it, and I completely ended up falling in love with the fragrance. I couldn't believe she was getting rid of it!! Guess one woman's trash is another's treasure. She ended up gifting it to me and I am so thankful. I love it so much that I am definitely going to order a bottle very soon!!!
Great video - I’ve just lined dried my bedding in the sun (common practice in England) and that warm, clean cotton smell is hard to beat. I love White Linen in small doses and will try and smell your list.
Happy Sunday Beautiful! Great review, I never knew to label that particular scent as soapy but it makes so much sense now! By the way, the fragrance tray looks gorgeous! That was a great choice!❤❤❤
Thank you, Paulette! 💖 Which fragrance are you referring to? And girl... listen! I ended up purchasing four more of those trays. I love them like I love ice cream. 😆
@VeronicaSays I have Borelli and I could figure out most of the notes but there was just that... Something. It's the soapy vibe but I love it!❤ I think those trays are gorgeous and really provide the perfect accent!❤
Great fragrance list Veronica. My soapy fragrances are Twilly OG and Eau Ginger. Alexandre J Morning Muscs and Mancera Roses Greedy have that clean soap like smell to me. I had to go smell Alfred Sung Shi and Jewel after one of the ladies mentioned them and I can smell the soapy like scent. Thanks for sharing ❤
I'm cheating and watching this video before I finish watching the Widian/Bo one! 😂😆 I really love soapy florals!! Can't wait to see which ones you picked 😊 (I appreciate the Price is Right reference, my husband and I have watched it every weekday for 32 years (it's on at lunch hour here) and we've actually been on the show twice) 😁😁
Wait!!! You were actually on the show? No way! I want to see! Girl, I grew up on this show. My grandmother LOVED watching it. I would sit in her apartment when I was little and watch with her. 🥹🥹🥹
@@VeronicaSays Aww I love that!! 🥹💕 Yes we were on in 2012 and 2107 I think it was, we never got called to “come on down” 😩 but we were in the second row both times so we were on camera every time it showed contestants row 🥰 our PVR with the 2012 episode on it died, but I think I still have the 2017 episode. I’m in bed right now but I’ll try to send you a little video of it tomorrow! 💛
Great video! I wore Chanel No. 5 right after college and I seriously thought I was sophisticated- Ha! I still have a partial bottle. Thanks Veronica!❤️🌹
I love Number 5- I have the L’eau version and it was my wedding day scent. I will own the OG someday but that one feels a bit denser and more mature- might need to wait a few years for that one. L’eau does it for me for now😊
I would love to try that Tiziana Terenzi fragrance. That sounds like it's right up my alley. (All of these are, really, but that sounds the most intriguing.)💜
Twilly is soapy to me, with a base kinda similar-ish to Pure Poison 😊 I think some rose fragrances can feel soapy clean when they’re more on the literal side and mixed with a clean musk ❤ I also have a fragrance called Mahib by Adyan that gives me a clean, creamy floral feel. The way you described the Xerjoff makes me feel like I need it 😂😫 Wouldn’t that be cool to be a part of someone’s memory the way that lady lives in yours? I’m sure you are 🥰
Yes that lady lives RENT FREE in my mind - almost 35 years now! Imagine? She has almost reached mythical angel status or something 😆 Twilly is a great addition to this list!
Hi Veronica, Chanel No. 5 Eau Premiere and No. 19, Prada Le Femme, Estee Lauder White Linen (I layer White Linen with Prada Le Femme) are in my top 10 for life. You listed in this video so many of my faves. Thank you.
Prada La Femme (the OG) is my absolute favorite frag for spring and summer. It is a Four Seasons' type shampoo. That beeswax x ylang-ylang is what does it. Another one which isn't mentioned here is Joop! Le Bain. JLB and PLF are my dressiest soapy frags and go with me wherever I travel.
I want a soapy scent now. Erin Parson's Makeup just did a video on Marilyn Monroe's fragrances, most were soapy. Now I get to see all these beauties on your list, which might suit my taste better. I've never wanted to smell like soap so bad in my life. 😂 Consider me influenced.
How did I miss this video!! As you know, I love Exit The King sooo much and I'm so glad you like it. It's definitely a soapy floral, to me, too! I am surprised others get patchouli from it. So odd. XO's 🤟🏻 💜
Romance by RL used to be one of my favorite soapy clean scents. I used to love the clean zesty ginger opening. 🤍 Definitely get your nose on Esthero’s “Smells like Esthero” it’s a clean slightly woody clean musk. She makes all her fragrances by hand.
At 14:00 lol 😄 I agree with your husband.. I think #5 smells extremely dated, like 1950s "dated". My Mom wore "Coco" and "Madamoiselle" which were much more 1990s "modern".
Prada femme is definitely clean 🧼 perfume ❤ cant go wrong 😁 I think i want to try the White Linen one.. thank u for the choices, veronica! My clean fresh / clean perfumes lately are : coach edp, burberry sheer, lovely, dkny blossom , chloe edp 😊❤️💕
Hi Veronica! Pikovaya Dama sounds like Chanel No.5 on steroids. The price tag is on steroids too… I love Pure Poison and I used up a bottle of it. Sadly, the current version doesn’t project on me. Now, to the big guns… White Linen… holy aldehydes! I have a bottle and I’m almost never in the mood for it. It’s soap in a bottle for me too. Nice but really challenging in my opinion. On another note, I just received Tuscany this morning. It’s gorgeous. It’s a fruitier, creamier, more floral version of Samsara. Woody, floral, powdery… so pretty. It’s been discontinued here in Europe. I believe it’s still available in the US.
So I need to check out Tuscany, is what I hear you saying? 😁 Seriously, I will check out reviews. Glad you finally got your bottle and you're enjoying it! And yes to Pikovaya Dama being INSANELY priced (yikes!) and to White Linen being challenging 💯💯💯
So while I have never been a fan of Chanel no 5, I recently sampled Chanel no 5 L’ AUE. I was really intrigued. It’s on my list for when I travel through Heathrow duty free!!
This is the one category that I’m still lacking in🧐🧐. I used to wear Chanel no.5 and White Linen back in the day and I haven’t smelled these in years🤔🤔. I smelled Chanel the red one recently and it’s really nice👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
So fresh and so clean 🎤🎵🎼 I already know I’m going to add one of the more controversial ones to my list 🤣 when you mentioned ELDO I thought of Like This! It reminds me of a soapy orange scent,oh my goodness luxurious Aldehydes! Sounds so beautiful! Wow white linen reminds me of my prima! I love when you bring out them oldies 😉
Great video. I love Prada Le Femme and Pure Poison is on my wish list. White Linen sounds amazing. Great list. Thanks for getting me through my workout 💜
Exit the King is very nice. I love another perfume that is similar, Coriandre. It’s more on the musky side rather than soapy imo. And super affordable ;)
You convinced me to explore Pikovaya Dama after describing it as upscale essential oils + rainbath adjacent. In the past we talked about our love for Aveda aromas, I wonder if it’s anything like that? Hmmm.
The visual of the woman with a turban, flowing clothes and smelling clean is the chicest thing I’ve ever heard. Unless she had been wearing an herbal green chypre from the 70s maybe lol, then it would have been pure perfection for me.
I have Chanel 5 l'eau and l'eau premier.. I love both of them. I am not ready for the real deal:) I have a sample of Pikovaya dama and really like it during cool weather. I have to be in the mood for it. It does reminds me of Nr 5
People say a lot that No. 5 is soapy and I never got that. This was Mom's for special perfume and I never once thought of soap. Even now, smelling it I don't get it. I smell beast mode ambers. White Linen was our everyday scent, Mom, my sister and I. You're right, at the time it was the closest we could find to "fresh off the line" smell. We especially treasured this in January, deep snow and no Spring in sight, when the longing would hit. As soon as the Spring rains could be predicted by the clouds, we were hanging out clothes and our dryer said we hated it. LOL "Hustle, girls! We've gotta get those clothes in! I smell rain!" Drop everything and run.
Oh I love that memory. 💖🥰 Thank you for sharing it. And I could totally understand perceiving No 5 as amber forward. It was that "richness" in the base.
I only have True Lust from ELdO, I love it and it’s my kinda fragrance but it doesn’t last 😢. I used to have the Tilda Swinton one but I just don’t like that one at all. I have to try more from this house. OK,, I am ordering Prada Le Femme this week!!!!! Pure Poision is the only one I don’t have from this line! Thanks Veronica ❤
Good morning Veronica!❤ ❤ I recently tried Pure Poison. It’s lovely! I want to try No. 5. I don’t think it’s for me, but I want to know for sure!😂 Next time I go to Ulta, I’ll see if they have a tester. Prada La Femme sounds interesting! I’m not ready for challenging fragrances like Tiziana Terrenzi yet. 😂 I hope you have a wonderful weekend!❤❤❤❤
Hiii Leah! 🥰💖 Ulta should have a tester out of No 5. Every lady should at least sniff it and decide if it's for them or not - it's Iike a right of passage! Hope you had an awesome weekend. 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Love White Linen, wore it way back when and purchased a bottle not long ago. I have to say it's not quite the same as it used to be, feels kind of dialled down (maybe reformulated 🤷), the essence of it is still there but I don't think it has the lasting power it used to have imho.
Hey Veronica! One would think that this is *my* scent category, since I basically live in Hades 🔥🌵🌶️👹 but it actually isn’t! 🤣 I’m learning to sort of like these type of fragrances once again. Prada La Femme is a staple in my collection tho; don’t wear it often, but will always have it. Hope you have a great Sunday 😉
Hi Jill! 💖 Not Hades?! 😆 Listen, I know what you mean. While I do seasonal videos, I wear all sorts of fragrances across all seasons with no shame. Wear what you LOVE! Have a peaceful Sunday. 🥰🥰🥰
Whilst I am quite the obsessed perfume gal, I do not own any Tiziana Terenzi perfumes. Maybe you could do a video of the ones that you really like sometime.
I love soapy florals but I actually can’t stand Pure Poison or La Femme. Favourites in my collection are Amouage Dia W, YSL Rive Gauche, Byredo Blanche and of course No 5 (I have it in 4 variations, but somehow not the EDP!) Thanks for the video. Aldehydes are one of my favourite notes.
@@VeronicaSays I’m not sure if I’ve ever intentionally smelled it. I’ve had the Parfum for years and adore it. In the past few years I’ve picked up the L’Eau and Eau Premiere versions and fallen in love with those too. Just last winter I decided to treat myself and get a more classic version and decided to go for the EDT… the EDP evades me so far. I’ve *heard* it’s a little more 80’s in style and for that reason haven’t given it a fair chance, but I also know it’s their waiting for me as I fall further down the No 5 rabbit hole and as I continue down, the more it calls to me!
Hi Veronika, very interesting review on fragrances. Could you please tell me if it's possible that the formula for Pikovaya Dama has changed? I bought a 50 ml bottle, and while it has the same scent, it only lasts for 2 hours on my skin and has no sillage. I don't really believe in the myth that perfumes need to settle after being transported.. 😢
Hi Svetlana, I have only ever tried the bottle that I have, so I can't answer your question. The best I can offer is that it's possible you go nose blind to the fragrance and can't smell it even though others still smell it on you. Have you asked others if they still pick up the scent hours later?
Prada La Femme sounds very beautiful 💕 Are those other fragrances which reminds you with this? Creamy elegant soapy? I'm afraid here already discontinued because last year I saw it in the sale rack (60% off). Thank you.
I also have Pure Poison but don’t reach for it often. Do you consider L’ Interdit to be in that same family? To me it smells a bit like Pure Poison. I have them both.
“Exit the King” is closer to a chypre than a floral aldehyde IMO. It’s not particularly heavy and quite gorgeous. I really like “I am Trash” it has a springtime, floral, freshness. I really love Parfums de Nicolai “Cap Neroli”, “Angelys Pear” and “Fig Tea” in the spring. From Chanel of course I love 5, 19 and 22. My first fragrance was C5 extrait.

I agree about No. 5 eau premiere. It is my favorite Chanel no 5, for sure.
My favorite soapy, and actually wearing it today is Jo Malone Wild Bluebell. Also, Jlo Glow will always be my very affordable, clean, floral scent. ❤
Yes! Both great choices! 💖🥰
Bluebell is a gem. Especially when it's the height of summer❤
@@12prettythings10 oh yes, really the only time I can really enjoy it😊

This is the one category that I’m still lacking in🧐🧐. I used to wear Chanel no.5 and White Linen back in the day and I haven’t smelled these in years🤔🤔.
I smelled Chanel the red one recently and it’s really nice👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
Hi Pinkie! 🥰💖 You have an amazing collection! You're not missing anything, my friend! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
So fresh and so clean 🎤🎵🎼 I already know I’m going to add one of the more controversial ones to my list 🤣 when you mentioned ELDO I thought of Like This! It reminds me of a soapy orange scent,oh my goodness luxurious Aldehydes! Sounds so beautiful! Wow white linen reminds me of my prima! I love when you bring out them oldies 😉
Outkast would be proud! 🤣 ELDO has an interesting lineup of fragrances. And yes, White Linen brings back all kinds of memories. 🥰
Great video. I love Prada Le Femme and Pure Poison is on my wish list. White Linen sounds amazing. Great list. Thanks for getting me through my workout 💜
You're welcome! Thanks for watching, Liz! 💖💖💖
Happy Sunday Veronica. Great list.
Hi Faith! 💖 Thank you! Happy Sunday!
I love your videos so much !!! My poor bank balance lol I’ve purchased so many of your suggestions & can I just say that you have fabulous taste! ❤️
Awww thank you so much! 💖💖💖 I'm glad you enjoy the videos and recommendations! And my apology to you wallet! 😂
Love most of them! I have to try the Xerjoff! Please, if you like aldehides, try Chanel 22, specially the extrait! Kisses!!! Love your videos!
Thank you soooo much! 🥰🥰🥰 Hope to try it one day soon!
This is my jam right now! I’ve been wanting to try Pure Poison!
Hiiii! Definitely give it a sniff! 💖🙌💖
Thank you for sharing Veronica
Thank you for watching! 🥰
Exit the King is very nice. I love another perfume that is similar, Coriandre. It’s more on the musky side rather than soapy imo. And super affordable ;)
You convinced me to explore Pikovaya Dama after describing it as upscale essential oils + rainbath adjacent. In the past we talked about our love for Aveda aromas, I wonder if it’s anything like that? Hmmm.
The visual of the woman with a turban, flowing clothes and smelling clean is the chicest thing I’ve ever heard. Unless she had been wearing an herbal green chypre from the 70s maybe lol, then it would have been pure perfection for me.
I would not consider Pikovaya Dama similar to Aveda aromas (which I LOVE). I wish it was!
Oh interesting! I owned Coriandre. 💖💖💖
Great video. I used to own white linen! I only have Pure Poison 🥰.
Thank you, Roxanne! 💖🥰 White Linen was a big deal back in the day.
NuMMBer 5 ah ah ah🧛🏻♂️I always go to the Count 😬😂Love it .
Great description of Pinkovaya..perfect🧡 Thank you Veronica
Big Mwaaaa 🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺❤️🩷🧡
Hi Stani! Oh my goodness - the count! 🤣🤣🤣 Perfect! Forgot about that character. 💖💖💖
Hey Veronica 🙋🏾♀️
Happy Sunday...let's see what made the list
Hiiiii Latonya! 💖
Good morning Veronica 😊. Yes so fresh and so clean, 😂.
Hiiii! If you know, you KNOW! 🙌🤣💯
yes i love some soapy floral scents this was a great video.
Thank you, Theresa! 💖
It’s funny you say that about Pure Poison, as apparently lots of men love that perfume 👌🏻😄
Yes! Some of the comments here confirm that. 😎
My husband loves it.
I have Chanel 5 l'eau and l'eau premier.. I love both of them. I am not ready for the real deal:) I have a sample of Pikovaya dama and really like it during cool weather. I have to be in the mood for it. It does reminds me of Nr 5
If you can rock Pikovaya Dama, you are ready for No 5 EDP! 👍👍👍
People say a lot that No. 5 is soapy and I never got that. This was Mom's for special perfume and I never once thought of soap. Even now, smelling it I don't get it. I smell beast mode ambers.
White Linen was our everyday scent, Mom, my sister and I. You're right, at the time it was the closest we could find to "fresh off the line" smell. We especially treasured this in January, deep snow and no Spring in sight, when the longing would hit. As soon as the Spring rains could be predicted by the clouds, we were hanging out clothes and our dryer said we hated it. LOL "Hustle, girls! We've gotta get those clothes in! I smell rain!" Drop everything and run.
Oh I love that memory. 💖🥰 Thank you for sharing it. And I could totally understand perceiving No 5 as amber forward. It was that "richness" in the base.
@@VeronicaSays My absolute pleasure. I hadn't thought of that in years. I thank you for nudging.
I only have True Lust from ELdO, I love it and it’s my kinda fragrance but it doesn’t last 😢. I used to have the Tilda Swinton one but I just don’t like that one at all. I have to try more from this house. OK,, I am ordering Prada Le Femme this week!!!!! Pure Poision is the only one I don’t have from this line! Thanks Veronica ❤
Hi Lisa! 💖 Aw darn. It's disappointing when a fragrance fades fast. 😕 Hope you enjoy Prada La Femme! It's so likeable.
Good morning Veronica!❤ ❤
I recently tried Pure Poison. It’s lovely!
I want to try No. 5. I don’t think it’s for me, but I want to know for sure!😂 Next time I go to Ulta, I’ll see if they have a tester.
Prada La Femme sounds interesting!
I’m not ready for challenging fragrances like Tiziana Terrenzi yet. 😂
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!❤❤❤❤
Hiii Leah! 🥰💖 Ulta should have a tester out of No 5. Every lady should at least sniff it and decide if it's for them or not - it's Iike a right of passage! Hope you had an awesome weekend. 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Love White Linen, wore it way back when and purchased a bottle not long ago. I have to say it's not quite the same as it used to be, feels kind of dialled down (maybe reformulated 🤷), the essence of it is still there but I don't think it has the lasting power it used to have imho.
It may have been reformulated. Our sense of smell also weakens as we age, so that doesn't help either. Mine certainly has. 🤷🏻♀️
Hey Veronica! One would think that this is *my* scent category, since I basically live in Hades 🔥🌵🌶️👹 but it actually isn’t! 🤣 I’m learning to sort of like these type of fragrances once again. Prada La Femme is a staple in my collection tho; don’t wear it often, but will always have it. Hope you have a great Sunday 😉
Hi Jill! 💖 Not Hades?! 😆 Listen, I know what you mean. While I do seasonal videos, I wear all sorts of fragrances across all seasons with no shame. Wear what you LOVE! Have a peaceful Sunday. 🥰🥰🥰
Whilst I am quite the obsessed perfume gal, I do not own any Tiziana Terenzi perfumes. Maybe you could do a video of the ones that you really like sometime.
Here's a TT video I filmed a while back. I have added more to the collection since then: th-cam.com/video/uMGRzGuEAKU/w-d-xo.html
I love soapy florals but I actually can’t stand Pure Poison or La Femme.
Favourites in my collection are Amouage Dia W, YSL Rive Gauche, Byredo Blanche and of course No 5 (I have it in 4 variations, but somehow not the EDP!)
Thanks for the video. Aldehydes are one of my favourite notes.
Thanks for sharing your faves! 🥰💖 Do you like the EDP of Chanel No 5?
@@VeronicaSays I’m not sure if I’ve ever intentionally smelled it. I’ve had the Parfum for years and adore it. In the past few years I’ve picked up the L’Eau and Eau Premiere versions and fallen in love with those too. Just last winter I decided to treat myself and get a more classic version and decided to go for the EDT… the EDP evades me so far. I’ve *heard* it’s a little more 80’s in style and for that reason haven’t given it a fair chance, but I also know it’s their waiting for me as I fall further down the No 5 rabbit hole and as I continue down, the more it calls to me!
I am getting a soapy floral vibe from Davidoff Cool Water. This is pure soap indeed 😂
Cool Water is/was a popular one! 🥰
Hi Veronika, very interesting review on fragrances. Could you please tell me if it's possible that the formula for Pikovaya Dama has changed? I bought a 50 ml bottle, and while it has the same scent, it only lasts for 2 hours on my skin and has no sillage. I don't really believe in the myth that perfumes need to settle after being transported.. 😢
Hi Svetlana, I have only ever tried the bottle that I have, so I can't answer your question. The best I can offer is that it's possible you go nose blind to the fragrance and can't smell it even though others still smell it on you. Have you asked others if they still pick up the scent hours later?
@@VeronicaSays Thank you for response. You right! I will ask..
I think chanel no 5 leau is more suitable to be spring / summer perfume.. 😊
Awesome! I need to get my nose on this one again. Seems loved by many. 🥰🥰🥰
Good morning Veronica 5-19-2024❤ the first fragrance I have the Red Bottle not in front of it now so I do not know the Name
Hi Marilyn! Happy Sunday 💖
❤❤❤ love your video
💖💖💖💖 thank you so much
Prada La Femme sounds very beautiful 💕 Are those other fragrances which reminds you with this? Creamy elegant soapy? I'm afraid here already discontinued because last year I saw it in the sale rack (60% off). Thank you.
The only fragrance I know of that has a similar feel, but they are not the same, is Pure Honey by Kim Kardashian.
Hey love! I need to wear my Pure Poison 😅
Hi Rose! Girl wear it TODAY 😆
@@VeronicaSays I will! Choosing is always so hard, thanks for picking for me 🤗💕
😂 I like the tiger eye on the Xerjoff bottle 🤷🏻♀️
You are not alone! Many do. 🥰
Exit The King is a book and a play about Death. I don't know what it has to do with the fragrance, other than a "fall of power"? 😳
I believe most (maybe all?) of their fragrances are named after books or plays... or something... ?
Chanel No5, wow didn't realize it was soapy
It is to me but some may disagree.
I also have Pure Poison but don’t reach for it often. Do you consider L’ Interdit to be in that same family? To me it smells a bit like Pure Poison. I have them both.
Hi Karen! 🥰 You know, I can understand the comparison! Not identical but there are some similarities.
To me, Pure Poison is a youthful floral lol
Awesome! I love that! 🥰
Anyone know if there is a difference in formulation between purple cap vs. White cap on pure poison bottle ? I have the white cap .
I wonder if the white cap is an older formulation? I am not sure.
Let's see what you have for us today Veronica.
💖💖💖💖
Please do seduction perfumes video! 🎉
Hi! 💖 I did one last summer. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/refrtwMGxqE/w-d-xo.html
Hiiiiiiiii! Thats it! Just stopping by to say Hìiiiiiii😂❤
Hi gorgeous! Always happy to see you in the comments! 💖💖💖🎉🎉🎉
I don't think I own any soapy florals, so let me watch and take notes
I bet you have something in this range somewhere. 👍👍👍
🌹
💖💖💖
A man I dated tell me that Pure poison was an extremely sexy scent to him…
😲😲😲 I love that! Thanks for sharing 🥰
Men love Pure Poison but more in a "Marry me" way than a "I want to rip your clothes off" way 😂
Yes, exactly! 🥰🥰🥰
😂 pure poison is beautiful, but definitely not sexy.
No ma'am! Unless we think smelling like Aunt Maria is sexy 😆
My man thinks it' sooo sexy
@@peroperoc that's AWESOME! 🥰🥰🥰
There's some jasmine in Pure poison that makes it sexy... a little dirty but also clean? Lol
Hi Veronica! This is not really my scent profile but I am curious about how Pure Poison smells. Seems to be popular and well loved.
