I think I have watched every one of your videos, but this is my first time I decided to post a comment. I really don't know a person that describes perfume scents as good as you. And your whole style, from filming videos to blog posts and opinions about some beauty related topics is really special, I feel like there isn't so much true characters like yours in this whole sell out youtube beauty community. I hope that we will be seeing more of your videos. Stay true to yourself and keep up the good work :)
I love this.. "A perfecgt scent for a funeral". So poetic. I need to look into a lot of these perfumes. They are so interesting. Right now my favorite is Diptyque "Volutes".. Smells just like cigars on a sexy 1800's night.. Love it!
Drunk bumblebee, that's wonderfully vivid! :D You just gave me a bunch of ideas of new scents I wanna try. Your sense of smell and connection to associations is so sharp - creative and to the point; just gorgeous! And I see everyone else here adores your perfume descriptions just as much.
love your fragrance descriptions in this and part one, they really help me to imagine the scent. Yours have to by my favourite perfume collection videos. and love the description of molecule 01 as bottled robot skin, I know what you mean hah
+Allthingsrachy I know what you mean. A "guru" holds up a Bath and Body Works pumpkin-scented candle and says, "This smells soooo good. Just like...pumpkin."
I watched this video for the first time several years back and had to re-watch it this evening just to hear you say "DJ-HENNE!?" one more time. Like it's literally been stuck somewhere in my head for years. Priceless. Thank you for your great mini-reviews.
"An elevator where someone has peed", hahahahahha, gorgeous description, I can even smell it!! I love your fragrances videos, all of them. The first part was great too, I really smiled when you said Versace Noir smells like a vampire on the beach. Funny, because I always use to say it smells like Maleficient drinking a coconut cocktail beverage... Please, keep on doing these videos, good job!!
I was so happy to see this pop up in my feed this week. I've watched your first collection videos a few times each year since I started collecting perfumes about three years ago. I like seeing how you've expanded and edited your bottles since then. (POAL is one of my favorites as well!). Lovely collection. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome collection, thank you so much for sharing! I love how you describe everything. I find a lot of people on TH-cam to be...really bad at describing scents, but you do it so well!
Viola, I really enjoy watching your reviews! Please consider talking about practical elements, as well: price, longevity, and projection- many of us have clear preferences when it comes to how strong or long-lasting a perfume needs to be.
Amazing selection of fragrance! I think you would really like Liz Earle fragrance no 15 - it's woody, balsamic with a soft floral notes and earthy/spiciness! It's my go-to autumn/winter perfume :)
I love how you describe scents as a feeling or place. I wish I was as romantic with my fragrances, but unfortunately most perfumes smell vaguely fresh-fruity, powdery, or spicy to me and then smell like nothing after 10 minutes. I just don't have a very sensitive nose, I guess! 😩
Hi Viola. Could you tell me (and others) which nail polish you have in here in this video? Such a nice color. I checked your blog to see if I could find out, but no. Big thanks in advance :)
I like your taste! Really happy to have discovered your channel. I would say that I don't generally like really sweet scents with caramel notes, but that's my personal preference. I do however, really like YSL Black Opium. Have you tried that one? The dry down is divine. other recent discoveries of mine include Versace Crystal Noir (new favorite), Dahlia Divin by Givenchy, and Michael by Michael Kors. Dahlia Divin is a pretty basic perfume, but it's a grown up basic perfume. it's definitely a lot of gardenia and jasmine, but it's balanced out by bright Mirabelle plum and a sandalwood and patchoulo base. It reminds me of the color gold when I wear it. it's a great office fragrance. Michael by Michael Kors is a weird fragrance. The dominant note is Tuberose, but it has a comforting cashmere and musk base. I don't know how to describe it. The base is like a perfect blend of cashmere, musk, and powdery iris and peony. And the Tuberose is so bright on top if it. I talked to several sales associates who said it was their favorite and I definitely understand why.
New subscriber here thanks to your perfume collection videos. Love your knowledge, descriptions, your accent. Looking forward to watching more and thank you for sharing.
I have a book about perfumes written by "experts" and I didn't enjoy their descriptions nearly as much as yours. I've ignored my fragrance collection for awhile but after watching your videos, got my samples and bottles out to use more often. Will you *please* make a video of your samples? We would love it! I find your blog more enjoyable than any other when I'm looking for makeup ideas.
+ShiniRyuk Aww, thanks a bunch! I'm so glad you appreciate what I do. My samples are a complete jumble stuffed in a shoe box, could probably never structure it up to become a serious video. Haha.
I'll fight you over PoaL. Kidding. We can share it. It really is the most beautiful thing. I also love Carnal Flower-- not in the same way, but I find that while it is just as heady, it is much more of a summer scent. De Profundis and Rose de Nuit are the only SL that I have in the bell-shaped bottles. I have recently gotten into Tubéreuse Criminelle, and what an oddball it is. I find I like many of the same frags as you, but with much less appreciation of candied, vanilla notes. I think I don't always love the way vanilla evolves on my skin, with the recent exception of Dior Fève Délicieuse.
Hi, Can you do a review of all of your Chanel perfumes? like your favorites and the occasions they would used for. I recently purchased and returned lol Coco EDP because it smelled like spicy water when i brought it home and it seemed very weak and i could barely smell it. I was so disappointed. So i returned it and purchased the EDP and body cream of narciso rodriguez's new perfume narciso. It is absolutely the smell and strength i was going for with chanel. However i would still like to give Chanel a try again but i don't know where to start . My main goal is luxury and smelling sexy even from a distance. Thx for reading this :)
What year is your bottle of Portrait of a Lady from? I'm sensing some differences between my old and new sample, and now I'm not sure about getting a full bottle...
can you suggest a woody scent that smells like a forest ? i have been looking for a warm resin wood scent for years now but can't find anything i like.
I'll be honest, with how Part 1 started out with Mugler Angel and Alien, I thought this was going to be a collection of mainstream fragrances. I am pleasantly surprised to see the great variety you have, from brands that are not very well-known. I've only ever tried a couple of samples from Parfumerie Generale, but their prices are pretty high, so I don't think I could afford a full-sized bottle :(
+De Melkmeid L'Artisan and I rarely click, there's something about the ID of them that I don't like. The ones I do like though is La Chasse aux Papillons (as shown in the video), Seville a l'Aube which is a waxy orange blossom and the spicy Tea for Two. Last two still not really bottle worthy in my opinion.
I would LOVE if you came back and updated your collection. I watched these years ago and they started my love of fragrances! So thank you.

+Morana Zunic Thank you so much for this lovely comment, it's because of people like you I keep motivated.
It’s been a while, we need an update perfume collection !!
seriously you're the best at describing perfumes! i've watched lots of videos and none of the youtubers can do what you do.
"A drunk bumblebee " 😂 I wish I explained scents as cool as you do 😊
Updated perfume collection please :) you have such an interesting collection.
Love your video's you inspired me to start my own perfume channel and blog a while ago :) happy you are uploading again !
I love this.. "A perfecgt scent for a funeral". So poetic. I need to look into a lot of these perfumes. They are so interesting. Right now my favorite is Diptyque "Volutes".. Smells just like cigars on a sexy 1800's night.. Love it!

I'd love to know how did she "learn" to appreciate, describe, understand scents! :)
love your fragrance descriptions in this and part one, they really help me to imagine the scent. Yours have to by my favourite perfume collection videos. and love the description of molecule 01 as bottled robot skin, I know what you mean hah

I would love to see what you have now. Please do another update!
You have a wonderful collection! I love your nail polish, what is it? Xx
Soooo SWEDISH!!!! You must know your accent is so lovely, and great to hear again. I enjoyed my time in Goteborg.
Its end of 2022 and I am still waiting for an update u.u Hope you come back, this was such a perfume bible to me, and still is! kisses from Italy.
drunk bumblebee! your descriptions are an instant boost of serotonin

I love your descriptions, great job!
Excellent video! I love hearing you pronounce the names makes me want to learn french. Lovely accent.

+Becky Davis Thank you, I'm so happy to inspire!
love your passion for perfumes, and how you manage to describe them, and you always hook me up on something new to smell
love your collection it's so different than others. enjoyed the way you described your perfumes 😄😍👍
Awesome collection, thank you so much for sharing! I love how you describe everything. I find a lot of people on TH-cam to be...really bad at describing scents, but you do it so well!
That little Shalimar parfum is so beautiful. ❤
Lovely. And you know what is also lovely? Your nailpolish! Girl, where is that from? It looks awesome and perfect for autumn.
+ttjnaaa Thank you! It's OPI It's a Piazza Cake from the Venice fall collection.
I love how you describe you scents. makes me want to smell them all 😁
Hi, i don't normally watch beauty channels, but you're beautiful, have a beautiful accent, speaks french beautifully, and i love it.
Viola, I really enjoy watching your reviews! Please consider talking about practical elements, as well: price, longevity, and projection- many of us have clear preferences when it comes to how strong or long-lasting a perfume needs to be.
such an amazing way to describe scents.Love it. beautiful collection also!
You have such a diverse perfume collection, where do you buy most of them from?
+Zoë Wolfchild I love Aus Liebe Zum Duft, they have a lot of interesting niche plus a great sample service with great value.
Amazing selection of fragrance! I think you would really like Liz Earle fragrance no 15 - it's woody, balsamic with a soft floral notes and earthy/spiciness! It's my go-to autumn/winter perfume :)
Glad that u r very happy about ure collection.
Nice video also.. Cheers!

I'm completely obsessed with the way you describe scents. I could watch it allll day. Though I'm not sure I would like most of them! Haha
welcome back! always love your review because i am a big fan of Thierry Mugler. By the way, you can try PG04 Musc Maori, it smells very delicious!
New subscriber here thanks to your perfume collection videos. Love your knowledge, descriptions, your accent. Looking forward to watching more and thank you for sharing.
I would love to smell all of them. I love Fantasy (from part 1), it will always be my scent, probably.
I have a book about perfumes written by "experts" and I didn't enjoy their descriptions nearly as much as yours. I've ignored my fragrance collection for awhile but after watching your videos, got my samples and bottles out to use more often.

Adore your niche fragrances

Beautiful collection! What are your thoughts on Coco Mademoiselle, the original No. 19 and Dior Poison? I'm curious to hear your thoughts.
Kan jeg spørre hvor du kjøper disse parfymene? Er interessert i de 2 første.. Fantastisk parfymesamling😄
Update please!!!
'here's another weirdo' haha the weird thing is i get what you mean. So many that i want to try! thanks for the update.

I do like Bal D'Afrique from Byredo, but I completely know what you mean. Once my sample is done, I probably will not buy a bottle.
Please make a skincare routine, you're skin is so beautiful (:
+MissCottonmouth7 I actually wrote a blog post on that subject not long ago! Here it is.
rodeo.net/killercolours/2015/08/09/my-skincare-routine-2/
Do you find that your perfumes change as they age?
Hi - I am curious as to whether or not you think POAL is unisex. Something tells me your boyfriend did not get to wear it much...
I'll be honest, with how Part 1 started out with Mugler Angel and Alien, I thought this was going to be a collection of mainstream fragrances. I am pleasantly surprised to see the great variety you have, from brands that are not very well-known.

hellooo which colour your hair very very lovelyy....please answerr
what kind of make-up are you wearing on your eyes for this video?
have you tried or do you like any other L'Artisan scents? I guess it's my favourite perfume brand of all.
+De Melkmeid L'Artisan and I rarely click, there's something about the ID of them that I don't like. The ones I do like though is La Chasse aux Papillons (as shown in the video), Seville a l'Aube which is a waxy orange blossom and the spicy Tea for Two.

have u tried any of the illamasqua freak fragrance or rouge bunny rouge ones?
+joanna del villar If you watch her old fragrance videos from a few years ago, she describes Freak in one of them.
Great video! If you had to pick only one perfume, what it would be?
+Rinat e Portrait of a Lady, definitely!
Vi behöver en 2024 uppdatering 🥺🥺❤
Have you considered vlogging? 😁
+Francesca Ordanza Haha sadly it would look like a The Office season 1 episode, so boring you could laugh.
Byredo bland?!! Helloooo.....Pulp?!!!!
"Horrible horse poop kind of ouds" 😂 that is rude! I love that type of oud. 😂 but maby I smell like poop 😂
+Just Gil Hahaha luckily it's just a question of preference!
