There’s going to be a new Yara perfume called yara candy! Notes are strawberry fizz candy, gardenia , vanilla syrup , green mandarin , black currant, sandalwood, musk and amber . Hopefully the gardenia isn’t too strong🤞🏼
I’ve come to realize that if I don’t absolutely love a scent, I’m going to get bored of wearing it, no matter how good it smells or if it’s a strong like. I’ve had fragrances I genuinely like feel like a chore to get through. I’m just wearing them to use them up so I can get back to wearing my true loves. Also, I can’t get behind Alien Goddess. I’ve smelled it multiple times and I can say it smells nice but I don’t think there’s anything special. My mom has it and it doesn’t matter how many times I smell it, I never recognize it and I can never remember what it smelled like.
Lol names are definitely confusing but Burberry Goddess is definitely the magnificent one in my opinion. Those three different vanillas are a big hit for me@@ThisEvilBunny
Petition for brands to make 15 or 20 ml bottles, because we want to try out a scent before committing to a full size bottles. It’s too often that we think we’d like a scent and it turns out it’s not that special and we regret it. Reselling is not easy especially if it’s not a popular scent.
This is such a valid take on perfume. My nose has definitely changed and there are perfumes in my collection that no longer appeal in the way they originally had. I still enjoy them, but I won’t buy them again.
I have my Alien Goddess wayyyy low. I will repurchase the refill bottle because it is more affordable. I will not repurchase it right now since summer is almost over but definitely it is one that I get sooo many compliments that it is a staple in my collection ❤.
Me too! I have one recommended by another reviewer and I really love it. To me it’s not 💯 but very very close. I finally got the OG full bottle from my husband. I had the sampler set prior. (Anyway jic you want to know it’s Ciao recommended by Paulina 😘)
CIAO by Riffs is an exact dupe and cheap! I bought a bottle for £30, and i mean its exact right down to the marshmallow dry down- also fakhama by maison asrar- Paulina called it dense and it is- smells more of the opening to LDBS- i dont get the marshamallow dry down- may be different on others or i need to let it sit for a bit and test it more- please see Paulina’s reviews shes awesome!
Delina is totally overrated. I thought it smelled like rose and some sort of strange rubber scent. I realized that I prefer Lancôme idole for a rose perfume. It’s fresher, cheaper and the longevity is great! I have the original DBIR but when that is gone, I am definitely buying intense! I LOVE that one and want it so much!
There are great middle eastern dupes for perfumes like Delina and Love Don’t Be Shy anyway, so why spend so much on the real thing if you’re not obsessed when you can get a middle eastern dupe? That’s been my philosophy recently. I’ve been obsessed with middle eastern perfumes lately and enjoying spending money on those rather than very expensive perfumes. 💁♀️
House of Oud has a new fragrance called “Guilty crush” and it’s a lipsticky fragrance with strawberry and champagne and black cherry! I blind bought it and I am not regretting it at all! I adore it!
I feel like I’m the only one who thinks Love Don’t Be Shy is more floral, than sweet. It definitely has a lot of sweetness, but that orange blossom and neroli is soooo heavy. That’s why it’s a like/hate for me. I like the sweet part of it, but hate the pungent, sharp, neroli/orange blossoms notes. If they toned down the florals I would probably love it. Or maybe orange blossom is just one of those notes that stands out on my skin, because I have that problem with most perfumes that has both orange blossom & neroli in it.
I have the exclusif version. My daughter picked it out with her dad for a gift. She tried both and thought I’d like it better. She has the OG and I do prefer the exclusif more. But I don’t wear it as an everyday scent either. If I could I would repurchase. And I agree about the DBIR intense version. I prefer the OG one and have already repurchased and have a back up bottle 😅. It’s my signature scent. It goes so well with my chemistry. Love your reviews! ❤️
Now that I know how a lot of these perfumes smell, I've been buying dupes. They are inspired by the originals, smell similar, and have good lasting power.
I just purchased my first blind buy because of your recommendation...I love love by Mashino and I really like it....I wear Light Blue alot and this is similar at a fraction of the price....really enjoying learning about perfumes since watching your channel ..thanks for the good info !
I have the same feelings about Versace Eros. I really like the scent. Yes, it's a little generic, but it's still a great freshie and it gets me compliments consistently: it's a crowd pleaser. The problem is that no matter how much you spray and over spray, it just doesn't last. I have the same experience with all the Versace perfumes I try, so they're officially banned from my shopping list. I refuse to pay for their prices to get the strength of a B&BW body mist. At least I can buy B&BW on sale for less than $5 twice per year and I can even get the matching lotion and body cream 🤭
Its so finny hiw differently each person experiences fragrances. I find love dont be shy so soft, sweet and feminine. The way you feel about delina is exactly my experience with donna born in roma!
You don’t need to justify the size of your collection, you could own hundreds more or just a handful if that’s what you wanted, it’s what you enjoy, your hobby and a way of income for you.
Here’s my top 5. Kayali- Yum pistachio gelato Zara-Rose gourmand Mac-Candy yum yum Marc Jacobs- Perfect EDP Kylie cosmetics- Cosmic I like them but I’m not obsessed.
Hey K Sooooo LOVE your videos! Love your vibe! I’m not a perfume influencer or worked in the industry, but I do have over 200 perfumes. I love them! My friends think I’m mental. Like you.. I don’t care what anyone thinks! You do you.. I do me! 😘😜
I have three travel sizes of Love Don't Be Shy, and I will not be purchasing the full size bottle. I'm with you; I'll just get a dupe for a good price. :) Now Kilian Princess...I have two unopened bottles of full size, and two unopened of the travles. Can't wait for Fall to wear it again 😌🤍
I actually don’t think alien goddess smells like beach walk by replica… beach walk is more sunscreeny to me, goddess is more tropical 🌴 anyways I feel the same about Versace Eros too it really does not last long!! I don’t wear Donna born in Roma intense either but only because of the jasmine in it, it’s a bit too strong.
Hi Ksenja! Have you tried Empress and Aphrodite by Soki London? She is a perfume reviewer from London who launched her own scents. I haven't tried it yet so I'm curious what your feedbck will be because I'm fairly sure you will like them. 😊
Because I have so many, I’ve started buying the small bottles. I love the look of a big bottle but let’s get real, I just can’t use them all up otherwise and I end up falling out of love with certain scents once a new fave comes out 😂💗😊
I would love more videos like this. A sort of “buy this, not that” for some of us on the fence and want to hear better (and maybe more affordable) options. Thanks!
I had Delina Exclusif, but I found it bitter and so sharp that it's headache inducing so I sold it. I like the original, but love the Rosee version the most.
My husband hates Delina exclusif. He cannot stand it, even if I only spray it once on myself. I don’t believe that every guy is head over heels over this scent on women/girls😅 but I personally like it very much and still wear it out. I too probably would not repurchase it after I’m done with it.
I absolutely enjoy your videos and viewpoint. I have Alien Goddes and will not repurchase. Trying really hard to finish my 1oz bottle. Dolce garden works better for me for the coconut kick. Keep up the awesome work.
You seem to love candy sweet scents like I do have you tried anything from the Sugarful line by Michel Germain? The original smells like pink and purple nerds to me 😂
L'Oreal ought Mugler and people have been saying all the unique qualities have been mass marketing affected. The profit line is more important than the identity. Shame really.
I wish I would love LDBS, but it, just like similar fragrances for example Sintra by Meno, reminds me of cough medicine we had in my childhood in Eastern Europe. It’s good for my wallet though.
I am very picky with scents and know what goes well with my body chemistry. Right now I am not enjoying super sweet scents, because those scents tend to pull really sweet on me. Prada Candy & Killian love don't be shy, nearly killed me. Smelled like pure sugar on me and gave me headaches. I can name so many that get hyped that I don't enjoy. I do like sweet perfumes but there has to be a balance. I like my vanilla's and musk. I like to smell soft, feminine and clean. But who knows maybe in the future I will feel differently about the super sweet perfumes.
Ksenja! Did you saw the newest limited edition of valentino donna born in roma? Called 'the gold' ? I saw it popping up yesterday on the official valentino website! Wonder if it will be available in stores in the future, do you know?
I am also not a fan of super strong perfumes. I don’t want to smell it on myself constantly, but if I move my arm I might catch a whiff. Otherwise it just makes me nauseous.
I won’t repurchase slice society 🤣 it’s fun to have it in my collection but I don’t wear it. I did a fragrance trade with other perfume fanatic and I got hermetica sandalsun Meh not the biggest fan of the formula and the smell is ok but not as gourmand as I expected. I will not repurchase or buy any more perfume from skylar if they don’t improve their longevity. Arianna grande perfume in general good to have them as reference but none of em blow my socks off and I hate the packaging on all of em. My fav is moonlight but longevity is trash followed by god is a woman but similar to other perfumes with better longevity such as radiant nectar.
Do you know what is called? I had the intense version and I had so many compliments. I did not repurchase because it was not a love. Definitely looking forward to smell this one.
@@glendalyscolon6914 it’s called Libre Flowers & Flames. It’s got an added palm tree flower, lily, and a musk note I believe. It’s like a sunkissed version of Libre. It’s my new favorite flanker! I got it from Macys. Not all places have it yet so call ahead of time! It’s a cool toned light brown liquid.
Ksenja, first off I love your channel! Imo, youre one of the realest in the game! I also follow you on mercari. My bday is coming up (July 28th) ill be the big 4 O! Would you consider making this the most epic, unforgettable birthday of my life and send me a fragrance?! It would mean the absolute world! Im just getting into the fragrance game, and to say im obsessed would be an understatement! My name is Kaila and I share this youtube with my fiance! God bless and please 🙏 consider making my year/life! 🎉🩷🎉🩷🎉
I felt the same about delina, I ended up selling it. I like to sniff the cap but on me it was too much. The few times I wore it it gave me such a headache.

i get this confused with burberry goddess. one is magnificent and the other is just okay.
Lol names are definitely confusing but Burberry Goddess is definitely the magnificent one in my opinion. Those three different vanillas are a big hit for me@@ThisEvilBunny
@@aesinam ooh yup that's the one thx

You can purchase decants and perfume minis. They can range between 1-10 ml bottles
there’s a ton of those everywhere
This is such a valid take on perfume. My nose has definitely changed and there are perfumes in my collection that no longer appeal in the way they originally had. I still enjoy them, but I won’t buy them again.
I'm the opposite of you (which is okay!) - I will spend the rest of my life repurchasing Alien Goddess unless it gets discontinued! 🥰
Agree 100% 💖 love it!!!!
SAME!
Same! It just smells so good !
I have my Alien Goddess wayyyy low. I will repurchase the refill bottle because it is more affordable. I will not repurchase it right now since summer is almost over but definitely it is one that I get sooo many compliments that it is a staple in my collection ❤.
In Brazil there’s like a hundred dupes of delina, so it’s not worth it to pay this price point.. but I’m curious to smell it
Really curious about your best dupes for Love Don’t Be Shy! Great video, I’d like to see more!
Me too! I have one recommended by another reviewer and I really love it. To me it’s not 💯 but very very close. I finally got the OG full bottle from my husband. I had the sampler set prior. (Anyway jic you want to know it’s Ciao recommended by Paulina 😘)
@@mayragonzalez3510 thank you so much!!
Dossier’s floral marshmallow is really good also ❤
CIAO by Riffs is an exact dupe and cheap! I bought a bottle for £30, and i mean its exact right down to the marshmallow dry down- also fakhama by maison asrar- Paulina called it dense and it is- smells more of the opening to LDBS- i dont get the marshamallow dry down- may be different on others or i need to let it sit for a bit and test it more- please see Paulina’s reviews shes awesome!
I have oil perfumery's version of it and it's pretty much EXACT!!!

Here’s my top 5.
Kayali- Yum pistachio gelato
Zara-Rose gourmand
Mac-Candy yum yum
Marc Jacobs- Perfect EDP
Kylie cosmetics- Cosmic
I like them but I’m not obsessed.
I have Versace pour femme edt and it's lasts forever on me! It's one of my favs. I think it smells like lemon skittles.
Hey K
Sooooo LOVE your videos! Love your vibe!
I’m not a perfume influencer or worked in the industry, but I do have over 200 perfumes.

My friends think I’m mental.

I appreciate that you have a large collection and that you share information that helps your subscribers make better perfume choices!
Can you review viktor and rolf good fortune. The original there's soo much controversy on the scent.
But Miami nectar is different from alien goddess, the only thing that puts them in the same category is the fact that they’re both summer scents! 🤷♀️
Hi Ksenja! Have you tried Empress and Aphrodite by Soki London? She is a perfume reviewer from London who launched her own scents. I haven't tried it yet so I'm curious what your feedbck will be because I'm fairly sure you will like them. 😊

I love love LDBS- it just doesnt last at all….. i get an hour if im lucky… u must have a really good batch..
PLEASE TEST YARA CANDY when released ❤❤❤❤❤
I love Alien Goddess, it's simply awesome, but for cold weather. It's too sweet for summer !
That's interesting! I'm always on the lookout for new scents and would love to hear your thoughts! 😊
Alien Goddess isn't a masterpeace, but it gives me chierfull and carefree vibes.😍
My husband hates Delina exclusif. He cannot stand it, even if I only spray it once on myself. I don’t believe that every guy is head over heels over this scent on women/girls😅 but I personally like it very much and still wear it out. I too probably would not repurchase it after I’m done with it.
FYI - I just heard from a bath and body work manager that Paris amore is coming back
I absolutely enjoy your videos and viewpoint. I have Alien Goddes and will not repurchase. Trying really hard to finish my 1oz bottle. Dolce garden works better for me for the coconut kick. Keep up the awesome work.
I love all the delinas but original delina is my fave. I just love that rhubarb note. ❤ Just wish they werent so expensive.
I feel ya! I think I have a couple I won’t repurchase!
Ksenja!!! Where did you get your beautiful earrings?? I’m obsessed❤️💕
I didn’t like Born in Roma intense at alllll 😢
You seem to love candy sweet scents like I do have you tried anything from the Sugarful line by Michel Germain? The original smells like pink and purple nerds to me 😂
I like the recommendations
Just order the Delina dupe from Montagne, Pink Rose. It’s $40 and a dead-on dupe!
L'Oreal ought Mugler and people have been saying all the unique qualities have been mass marketing affected. The profit line is more important than the identity. Shame really.
I agree delina for me is super strong and sharp
I almost feel like the bath and body works dupe spray smelled like a better version of it
I wish I would love LDBS, but it, just like similar fragrances for example Sintra by Meno, reminds me of cough medicine we had in my childhood in Eastern Europe. It’s good for my wallet though.
My love don’t be shy is soooooo pooor in longevity:(
Agree with all!
Thanks for sharing 🤩
Soleil Blanc, forget the « c », in french we say « Soleil Blan »… 😉

To me with Delina I get a pickle smell I wanted to love it so bad 😭
ah, yall are getting the storms we got. I love super sweet scents but Killian sounds like its cloying
Please share love don’t be shy lasting heavy hitter dupes. Please chime in if you know any.
I agree about Born in Roma Intense.. I do love and prefer the original. On me born in roma intense smell juvenile, but the original not.
I am also not a fan of super strong perfumes. I don’t want to smell it on myself constantly, but if I move my arm I might catch a whiff. Otherwise it just makes me nauseous.
Do you think covered in roses by bath and bodyworks is like delina

fame smells like a better verson of alien goddess
wowww i cant believe you are bashing delina :( shes amazing and the exclusif even better tbh
Does anyone know a really good dupe for Kayali silk santal?
Delina was a no for me just like amourage guidence im not ok with choke me out scents
I HATE Delina.
Ich würde Angel Nova nicht nachkaufen. Ich habe 200 Flaschen Parfum. Und diese bekommt man nicht leer.😂
