Thank you for donating fragrances. I have a college degree but have been unemployed and looking for work for a long time. I no longer have any fragrances or wardrobe to speak of. I would really appreciate it if somebody near me did the same. I really miss smelling nice. Just another thing that makes you feel less human when you have zero dollars. Other things are more vital for sure but it all takes it's mental and even physical toll.
I’m sorry that you’re going through a rough time… I hope things get better and you’re able to buy all the clothes and fragrances you wish for someday soon ❤
I found a cheap perfume brand off Amazon I really enjoy. The brand is Anecdote. Weekend fling smells just like Cherosa 62. Carnival days is another one that smells like a sugared lemonade and it layers really good with CK in 2 U
I often see Cheap & Chic I Love Love by Moschino at Shopper's Drug Mart (everywhere in Canada) for under $20, and I really like it. It's a super bright happy smelling grapefruit with cedar. It kind of has that early 2000s aquatic citrusy thing going on, which I love... I would defiantly recommend for the price if you like fresh scents and you are in Canada!
Amazing timing for this video as I'm planning a bargain hunt shopping day with one of my girlfriends and this will help me know what to look for! Love your videos Olivia, your passion is contagious and I love the way you describe scents. Very informative! And thank you for focusing on some cheapies, which I feel often don't get enough consideration due to the incorrect notion that cost *always* equals quality. There's so many bangers in the sub-$30 price point, and a lot punch way above their perceived price point.
@@TheOriginalRadGrrl I picked up the Pink Sugar body mist a little while ago and it's really good! I must be in a cotton candy/spun sugar/sweet musk season right now because that's all I want to smell. Thank you for the recommendations, I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for the Pink Sugar perfume as well as Chocomusk!
This was so lovely and very helpful! I really appreciate that after you reviewed a fragrance you repeated the name of it, it helped me follow along more easily ☺️
Loved this video. Ones I've purchased for around £20 here in the UK and are great are Agent Provocateur, Lanvin Éclat d'arpege and several by Cacharel- all the Yes I Ams, Noa and Amor Amor. All beautiful.
You should try the Sand + Fog fragrance oils! I see them at TJ Maxx and stuff all the time and it seems like they try to dupe some higher end products like Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato and Baccarat Rouge 540. I’d love to hear your opinion on them!
Oh my gosh! I love the idea of donating fragrances to a women's shelter! WHY didn't I ever think of that? On my next clean out that is exactly what I'll be doing! ❤
First let me say how much I enjoy your videos. I don't know what happened a couple months ago when I got it into my head that I just HAD to have a bottle of some perfume that I loved back in the 80s... and since that time I've become obsessed with fragrances in general (omg I wish I could afford some of them that i see on YT !) But I have decided to collect as many of my old favorites as possible and White Shoulders was at the top of the list. I just love it sooooo much. Another one of those, like Guess, that used to be majorly expensive. I've not heard you ever mention this fragrance .. have you ever smelled it ? I find it intoxicating.
7:16 We have a loquat tree and the fruit is delicious! Definitely curious about the Sunflower fragrance. I live in California and I was so surprised to see ‘backyard’ fruit in Japan selling for big money. 🙃 Great review! Thank you for your altruism. I have a few designer perfumes I’m going to donate at the local women’s recovery house ❤
My recent gray market Summer finds under $20 Banana Republic Tuberose Overdose, Banana Republic Neroli Woods, Banana Republic Vintage Green. Jessica Simpson Fancy Love (yes Fancy is great but love is better for Summer). I’m starting to see Ellis Brooklyn scents pop up most tagged at $29.99. I got Fawn for $29.99 and found Rrose on clearance for $14! Tocca pops up at TJ Maxx all of the time ! Usually smaller bottles but easy to decant and all are perfect for Summer! And don’t forget Le Monde Gourmande!
I really enjoy listening to you talk about perfume and while I like all of your vids, the ones about more affordable perfumes are my favorites~ thanks for taking the time to make these
I am SO PROUD OF YOU, that cake 😍 Also my mind is blown that you actually said what you did about box mix and a tub of icing. But so happy you know now!
Not saying this happened at your store but I watched emps putting frags in the plastic containers, and then chunking them into a cart about 5 to 6 feet from them. 😮
I bought a sample of John Varvatos Artisan Pure along with other samples, and surprisingly, this ended up in my top 3 favs of them all! Such realistic citrus and crisp, aromatic vetiver, and the price for a whole bottle is a steal! My other faves are Givenchy Pi and Encre Noir L'Extreme, all affordable frags too :D
Hi Ckin2u is wondering just doesn't last long. I have a few Sunflower flankers & i love them for very hot weather, very light doesn't last long but pretty. I thought your message was so meaningful, good video 🌻💛
I would love to see you review some Victoria’s Secret perfumes! Very Sexy Oasis has been my go to summer fragrance for the past three years and I get so many compliments on it. Would you to know your thoughts on the rest of the line :)
I'm sure you've reviewed this scent profile many times but I'm still interested in hearing more about sweet/sour fruity ,candy ,summer scents for summer. Mahalo and Aloha ! 🌺🌺🌺
Shock is one of my fave fall/winter scents and the love is in the dry down. It's the musk, amber and patchouli. I don't know how you feel about oils that have to come in the mail but Crow & Pebble has some veeeery interesting mixes that I'm more than a little curious about. It's a small business that could do with some love if her creations are as beautiful as they sound. For me, under $30 for one bottle.
I love getting the cheapies at the rack stores, that's how I started my journey and one of my firsts was Gardenia. Some of my faves: The "Sexy" line mostly at Marshall's Sexy Spice, Sexy Sexy and Sexy Secret Tease Terre Blush at Marshalls or TJ Maxx Betsey Johnson by Betsey Johnson at Ross, is one of my absolute faves, very unique Sabrina Carpenter Sweet Tooth at Ross Forever 21 scents at Burlington, I like Vanilla Sunrise (smells like Airheads) and Pink Aura, they're juvenile, but fun Guess Gold at Burlington
Hello this is LaTonya love when your videos come on love when you do videos like this I love cheap perfume and high-end niche I am always in Marshalls in Ross this is what I have in my perfume collection Jessica Simpson fancy Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker and philosophy Falling in Love you talked about this one on your Channel and Elizabeth Arden green tea and my favorite Britney Spears Fantasy and sweet like candy love your Channel
Hi! Do you have any recommendations for some perfumes that are similar to Champagne Toast by Bath & BodyWorks? Love the scent but want to look into something that lasts longer.
You're so right about smell of real flowers 💐 sometimes smelling like cat pee.😂😅 It's like if I was walking next a garden of flowers after it just ruined. I can definitely smell like pee.!😂😂😅
Can I please ask your smelling expertise for a dupe 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 for the La Labo santal 33! I ran out of the sample size that was already super expensive for the size and I’m dying for a dupe 😫 closest I can get was billie eillish volume 2. Thank you ❤
I can't believe the price of many fragrances today! Some are just utterly ludacris and I would never pay that price no matter how much I like a fragrance.
I’m personally very over ME scents and content at this point . It’s overdone, the novelty has worn off . And the perfumes are never as good as the one they’re impersonating.
So where will the shelters donate their perfumes when they don't use it if we all donate our unused perfumes? That we have collected because of being influenced? Do you know most donated items at least from Goodwill end up in a dump site. And how about those allergic to perfumes? You could have just as easily bought samples and used them up.
I buy the bottles to review, then donate them to be used as birthday gifts for the woman’s program at my local shelter. So I know where they are going, and the ladies are enjoying them 🎉
you’re the reason I started donating unused samples/bottles to women’s shelters!!
Omg! I never thought of that
Well done 🤗
I’m so happy to hear it love!!! Thank you ❤

These sounds interesting ! Amazon has a discovery set for 35.
The Cheirosa 62 is what the Bum Bum Cream smells like??
I’ve found that my favourite affordable fragrance brands are the arab ones. especially lattafa and al rehab.
@@danielas3223yes! 😊
I'd love to see you do More of these type of videos❤!!

Oh I have this one! It’s good but definitely a daytime fragrance

If you like sweet scents I would recommend Pink Sugar and chocomusk. Both are very reasonable. I just got both this week and I'm in love ❤️

Loooove CK IN2U! Such a versatile, fresh yet comforting scent. Performs surprisingly well for an EDT! Will repurchase again and again 🧡
This was so lovely and very helpful! I really appreciate that after you reviewed a fragrance you repeated the name of it, it helped me follow along more easily ☺️

Gardenia was a blind buy for me and I love it.
Same - I really love it! It's a lactonic on me and I really enjoy a lactonic.
You should try the Sand + Fog fragrance oils! I see them at TJ Maxx and stuff all the time and it seems like they try to dupe some higher end products like Kayali Yum Pistachio Gelato and Baccarat Rouge 540. I’d love to hear your opinion on them!
I love fantasy intense in cooler weather. A better guess seductive red.
Oh my gosh! I love the idea of donating fragrances to a women's shelter! WHY didn't I ever think of that? On my next clean out that is exactly what I'll be doing! ❤
Yay, I love affordables lists!
You were right about Clairborne's 'Bora Bora'... 😊

I loooove seductive noir . A little aromatic but spicy root beer vanilla. Doesn't last as long as I would like but I'm so glad to reapply
Thanks for your kindness ❤❤❤
I need to find those Guess perfumes! Great recommendations/reviews! I love affordable perfumes.
Elizabeth Arden Green Tea is a classic super- affordable, easy reach.
The new Green Tea Coconut flanker is great too. Clean, light, fresh scents.
I live CK In2u ❤ it’s timeless
Love the simplicity and still good fragrance deals thanks for doing the leg work for all of us!
I often see Yes I Am and the flankers too at Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada for just over $20
Well worth checking out if you like gourmands.
Skin, makeup and hair on point

Haven’t watched whole video but I vote for Calvin Klein Reveal. Wish I could smell it more but it is good
Not saying this happened at your store but I watched emps putting frags in the plastic containers, and then chunking them into a cart about 5 to 6 feet from them. 😮
Your videos are so relaxing I love it
Hello beautiful, thank you for this video, loved it!!!❤
SEDUCTIVE NOIR is really great ❤
Can you plz do a video of best fragrance for gym/ workout??😊
Love the encouragement to give ! It's very rare but refreshing to hear.
Oh gardenia is good...Also love the sunflowers flankers, but I've always loved sunflowers!
Great recommendations!! Could you please tell me what lip-gloss or lip combo you're wearing?? Looks stunning!
My first time her 😊love your makeup especially the eyes ❤

Sunflowers Honey Daze is amazing!

These videos are so helpful. I love perfume, but as a mom on a very tight budget I can't afford to spend much on myself. Thanks so so much! ❤
11:02 I LOVE seductive noir! I wear it with a vanilla/cashmere/citrus lotion to help it stay.
Shock is one of my fave fall/winter scents and the love is in the dry down. It's the musk, amber and patchouli.

Hi Olivia, have you tried Guess Iconic? I think is a beautiful skin scent perfume! XO
Aw I loved this 🥰
Great video!
Now curious about the Guess Seductives perf.

Could you possibly share the makeup that you wore in this video? It is sooo striking, particularly with your hair tone.
Zara fragrances are quite affordable and you can definitely get them under $20

I can't believe the price of many fragrances today! Some are just utterly ludacris and I would never pay that price no matter how much I like a fragrance.
8:40 🤣🤣🤣
Do you plan on doing more middle eastern videos? ❤❤❤
I’m personally very over ME scents and content at this point . It’s overdone, the novelty has worn off . And the perfumes are never as good as the one they’re impersonating.
Love is a dupe for coco mademoiselle
How do you keep the audience engaged with content like this?
Fragrance lovers want perfume videos! 🎉
So where will the shelters donate their perfumes when they don't use it if we all donate our unused perfumes? That we have collected because of being influenced? Do you know most donated items at least from Goodwill end up in a dump site. And how about those allergic to perfumes? You could have just as easily bought samples and used them up.
Being influenced is not passive. A personal action must be taken to purchase a perfume. Own your actions, as should everyone. 🤷♀️
I buy the bottles to review, then donate them to be used as birthday gifts for the woman’s program at my local shelter. So I know where they are going, and the ladies are enjoying them 🎉
When will vanilla make an exit from fragrances at all price points. 😑
Neverrrr 🤞🏻
@@Lunarangst 😂😂 I wish I enjoyed vanilla. To me, it’s very sweet. I’m sure there are fragrances in which vanilla is a whisper.
@@Lowchen424 maybe there are but I like the ones where it screams 😂
@@Lunarangst ❤️❤️
Came here after you announced your secret giveaway having no idea that you also have a TH-cam channel!? Consider me your new and devoted subscriber🩷🩷
