For My 50th, Here's a Perfume Compliments Video #perfume #perfumecollection
It's a weird thought when I watch your videos It transports me while wearing Prada Infusion d iris, into an awkward breakup situation , where you had one to many awkward breakup and you start acting strange like numb and funny while running the whole process of breaking up with someone in a cafeteria where people starts looking already but you don't really care because you just wanna finish the entire process of a breakup throwing lines like, "how dare you" any break up lines from you to share???
My mom bought the Goutal vetiver in the early 90's. I stole it from her, and it was the first fragrance I ever wore. I was probably 11 or 12. I wanted to find it again, but I learned it's been discontinued. Im so bummed.
@@heatherpaige8897 Love this one, they reissued it a few years ago but I don't think it's that driftwood sandalwood Vetiver that it used to be. Such a unique scent for sure!
Terrific video. This was my first serious bottle of perfume. My bf at the time gave me the parfum for my birthday. He made out that he had especially chosen it, only to admit years later that he only picked it because of its legendary status, haha. Still, I loved it back then in the eighties. Revisiting it again in the twenties. I have the modern EDP, pre-barcode parfum and EDT. I think company bean counters would rather foster a taste for more commercially profitable newer offerings in the masses than encourage the demand for old school quality.
@@hausacat What a sweet boyfriend you had! I still think it's a wonderful scent even the newest versions ♥️♥️♥️
"...oakmoss huffer." : D I guess I'm that too. Been admiring Mitsouko for decades. Shalimar was too much for me when I was young, but now I enjoy it too. I'm not a fan of Lush shops with their hippyish vibe and garish soaps. However, you've intrigued me with Devil's Nightcap. (Breath of God was much hyped , but it wasn't for me.) I might have to brave my local Lush to see if I can get a whiff. It sounds as if it might also be good for layering?
I learned from your other video with mostly A. GOUTAL review that you live in Michicagan, I just watched a vlog from my favorite family vloger that they just passed by Michigan in their way to Alaska, I say you have a nice City. I liked the moomers ice cream Cruise. And that whiners hotdogs house. Whice part are you in Michigan? Will leave a link of the Michigan Vlog.. I hope you like it and I wanna know your thoughts about it... enjoy ruclips.net/video/2ux00kG_xFU/видео.htmlsi=UXBQtVsyQaqowhrt
Hullo. I discovered you via a recent comment you wrote on Claire Smith's channel. Not many fragrance RUclipsrs talk about vintage perfume, (Not lucrative, I suppose.) so I'm happy to have found you. I enjoyed this parade and hope you will continue to produce more content on the vintage fragrances. Subscribed! : )
@@hausacat Thank you so much I appreciate that! Vintages are definitely where my heart lies. Talk to you soon 😊
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034 You're welcome, Wendi. I've earmarked a few of your videos to enjoy later. Also, I will be intrigued by your take on contemporary fragrances given your appreciation of the vintage classics. Hope your day or night is going well!
Hi Wendi, great to see you again! Lovely choices, I’m so envious of your Gucci#3. My mum used to wear it and I looked at it but don’t really want to may $300 for vintage. Anyway, don’t worry about your background noise, I never noticed it. Interesting comment about Jubilation 25. I do have a decant but haven’t worn it that much. I’m spring and getting warm - love the weather but perfume-wise, I wear anything. I wore SJP covet, lovely, maja, femme rochas, aqua di gio, rogue by Rihanna, Ormonde Jayne Woman - I’m all over the place, lucky I work from home 🤣 I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Hi Anah, What a list, I love your choices. I take it you are in the southern hemisphere? I am in awe of people who can wear whatever whenever as some things just don't act right or smell right in certain conditions, and then there are some things that are repulsive in other climes mostly the heat!
"Here's to you, using your shit up! Words to live by!! 😂❤
If I could only take my fragrances with me into the afterlife, alas, I cannot, so in the meantime ... when in Rome:)
I know confrontation to a woman who wears infusion d iris Prada is never preety, but I needed to get this off my chest, how can pull those claims in a span of less than an hour perfume review video? Clearly you are an opinionated woman and have no care to what people say about you having a lot of say and being so big in perfume. I'm just blabbering, I'm a bit drunk from Gin wearing Kelly Caleche from hermes... feeling sophisticated than anyone else who stands on my way... you are fantastic... minus the still buying of perfume and just letting them go bad along the years... I feel sad for them .. I really do ... p.s. how dare you...
@@ainoncheng4377 Gin & Kelly sounds amazing. And I love all the bottles in my big collection!
I have GOT to try Mandragore! Both versions. I’m such a sucker for the herbaceous and spicy profile. Plus I won’t lie the name is cool. Reminds me of the mythical mandrake creature you can see in Harry Potter. I get the impression Annick Goutal excels when it comes to greens and florals. But especially greens. I’m not a huge white floral person but I do want to try Songes.
@@expansefloating4096 I think they still make Mandragore Poupre which leans pepper and Patchouli but it's still that witchy Mandragore. It really is an herbal Elixir! Not to enable you♥️♥️♥️
Your collection is so diverse and beautiful! So lovely to see another video, Wendi 😊. I am not ready for fall fragrances at all 😂, but am looking forward to eventually being able to wear my L’Interdit Rouge, too as well as my La Vie est Belle Iris Absolu. Kinda want to add a couple of Serge Lutens fragrances (secondhand) to my collection.
Thank you Mamoni. Are you more of a warm weather blooded person? And I am a bit interested in the Iris La Vie est Belle but I'm scared off by its sweet reputation. What SL's do you have that you like? I lament that I didn't buy them all when they were easy to find on the grey market for $40 - 60 a pop. Who would have known what would happen to perfume prices and distribution???
I have that bottle of vetiver and you summed it up perfectly; tbh l haven't reached for it this year so thanks for reminding me
You're welcome. It's a classic for a reason. Very reliable in most weather, too.
Going to be 100° here in Nebraska today and I’m not happy about it! I loved your lineup in this video Wendi. Portrayal from Amouage was love at first smell for me and I purchased a large bottle. It’s the decant of Interlude that’s taking me forever and a day to work through. Btw only a couple of times I heard your dog panting in older videos and it really wasn’t even a distraction. 😊
100 degrees wat that is crazy. I hate this! I want it to get cool now! It's 96 today and tomorrow in MIchigan and that is bad enough. And thank you for letting me know that the dog wasn't too much of a distraction.
Great video. I'm in London, UK, and the weather's been very mixed this summer 🌦. I mainly work from home so mix and match, but I've already started to wear Babycat and Coromandel that I recently purchased. I just couldn't wait😂😂. You've sold me on Jubilation 25
Hi Kathy. Coromandel is another fall lovely. You are lucky that you work from home and can pretty much wear heavy hitters whenever you like! I have never smelled BabyCat but I've heard so much about it. And try Jubilation if you can it's a unique one and acquired taste.
Never noticed the dog or dishwasher running:) Didn't even know you had a dog, lol:)
Sooyun I am glad to hear that because I rewatched a few and it was so cringe! Yikes! I have one dog, a Bernese Mountain Dog named Rusty. Once in a blue moon he'll get in the background.
You have a great collection of fragrances Wendi and a unique way of describing them 😂 love your videos xxx❤❤
Thank you Linda. I appreciate that and it means a lot to hear that:)
Filthy Dirty category, HAHAHA! Jubilation 25 is among my most favorite perfumes! Of all the perfume youtubers I watch, you have the most similar taste to myself. I can't think of many who wear chypres either; my favorite style, but then since it's not a style made anymore the way they used to be, with some exceptions in niche, I can understand why. I am not ready for fall whatsoever. Here in the Seattle area it started raining last week and after several days of rain, today it was sunny but the temperatures are never going to go back to the 80s and 90s but rains have come early this year for sure. I have been trying to wear all my summer perfumes this year but some I just never got around to wearing, mostly the citrus ones. I have too many of those for the small number of days I feel like wearing them. I always feel they don't last nearly long enough to waste a day on. I'm doing the big beachy and tropical yellow florals at the moment and loving them. oxJulia
Oh another Jubilation 25 lover! It's just so good. Drown in the filth! I should do a list of filthy dirty perfumes lol. I adore chypres and while I am sad for their demise I am glad I was on the train enough to stock up while I could. They are never coming back as a perfume style. I figure that the short wearing perfumes like some citruses I just reapply with abandon. That said I love those rich beachy white and yellow florals too. Have a wonderful day in Seattle Julia:)
Oud Nude is gorgeous!❤
Hi there Christie:) Gosh I love it too! It's sweet but the woods and smoke and rose really temper it down. And frankly it's easy to wear while still be interesting.
I'm ready for fall. SE Virginia summers go on too long. (miss Michigan weather ). This evenings' fragrance is Cafe-Cafe. Gets me in the mood for spicy scents, but light enough for an 80 deg. day. (90's this week - ugh) I recently acquired a 6 ml. Guerlain Tobacco Honey... YUM. It may not last this fall. And as much as I try to like vanilla... dang. It does nothing for me. I also recently acquired a 50 ml of Gucci Flora Gorgeous Orchid and it's a nice floral, but the dry down is just too gourmand vanilla for me. (warm weather didn't help). Bring on the cool weather.
@@robinscott1951 I know it's 96 here tomorrow which is unacceptable! I think though that Tobacco Honey is such a perfect perfume for fall it'll be so nice to wear when it finally cools down😊😊😊
Jubilation 25 is filthy heaven! Since you like AP l’agent, have you ever tried Amouage Memoir. Heard they are a bit similar. Love Memoir!
@@DD-nu8jt I have that one too! The one with the bitter artemesia. That is a nice dark and dirty one♥️♥️♥️
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034 oohhh I loved sinking into Memoir’s dark embrace. I never bought a full bottle because it is so at odds with my lifestyle that it would cause cognitive dissonance!
Hey Wendi! Have just started watching the video but wanted to be the first to say “hi.” I hate summer bring on fall! Where I live in So Cal we have some of our hottest weather in September. No me gusta.
@@DD-nu8jt Hi DD! I don't like summer either. Maybe for a day or two then I'm over it! I can't wait.
Hey there!!! Found your channel! God bless you for what you do! I have 3 dogs; one is 16 and I’m always at the vet’s office (including today for 2 hours). Yes, I’ve been pooped on also at work! (I work at a hospital) 😂 I know the deal. I also try and pick boring and easy fragrances, but Sometimes I cheat (incense-y vanillas)❤
@@ThePerfumeNest Aww thank you for the note and for taking such good care of your pets. All hospitals have overlap don't they? Thank you for all your hard work as well♥️♥️♥️
Hi Wendy! I am desperately needing advice about Chanel No 19 EDT vs EDP. Could you kindly share your thoughts? What are the differences and which do you prefer? Many thanks!!
@@HappyHermit-om4viHi Hermit, I have not forgotten about you. I'm thinking on this and I might do a short video about it. I'll let you know:)
Thank you very much for your help!! Looking forward to your video ❤
Bamboo edp Gucci
I have a real soft spot for Annick Goutal. My favourite by far is Heure Exquise and I prefer it to No. 19. Also I think they do summer freshies really well. I‘m curious about L’Ile au Thé now. Thanks for sharing your beautiful collection!
@@CaroCoffee123 You are welcome! And I just wore Heure Exquise to sleep yesterday. It's such a beautiful perfume.
Great selection there Wendi! Thank you. I work from home. It’s been 3 years and as much as I like it, let’s be honest…I do miss wearing my perfumes out in the world, smelling them out in the breeze or when it’s raining or during the hot summer days. You get to know each so well and mostly, they do change depending on climate. Since I don’t have many opportunities to get ‘glamorous’ or ‘elegant’ I wear all my perfumes at home (what a waste 🤣) but I’m an oversprayer and reapply many times during the day - poor husband when he gets home. He doesn’t like 50% of my wardrobe and says I smell like an old lady - perhaps it’s good that I work from home. I wear anything cheapies, expensive, floral, woody, muscy, spicy, aqua. I enjoy them all.
@@anah6270 You sound like you have great taste and the Old Lady perfumes are my total favorites!! I understand what you mean as is it is nice to walk in a perfume cloud, but oh the chance to wear my old Guerlains every day would be amazing:)
Hello, and thank you for another entertaining video! I work homecare, so I spend time with patients. I try not to offend, but still want to enjoy my perfume. It's a balance, I think. ❤
@@keysbmc94 It's definitely a balance. I think a lot of people like a little bit of nice scent. Just can't be insane about it! Thanks for the work you do in helping people!
I really commend you for going to work. It's definitely harder as you get older. I hope you are taking care of yourself on your days off - sleep in, eat lots of yummy food and watch your favorite show. I love do nothing days. As to wearing perfumes to work, I sweat so much that I haven't worn anything since my client likes to walk a lot:) My client is also very odor sensitive, so that's another reason.
Hi Sooyun. I agree what is it about work that gets harder as we age ... that middle part knowing that there is more? It's also more tiring. I also need a do nothing day ... with lots of treats of course. They still taste good as we get older:) Are you a caretaker where you have a specific client? I hope you put lots of perfume on when you get home from work, you deserve it!
Ohhh, my dear dear Wendi, I so love all the fragrances you have mentioned... I do tend to wear Eros by Versace and Kenzo L'Eau and Issey Miyake.... Regarding all flankers of Light Blue, there's something in there I struggle with. Cannot wait to see the next video ❤❤❤
Hi Ank! I think I need to stalk the Kenzo L'Eau ... and I love A Scent by Issey Miyake. I think that is the jasmine version of Prada Infusion d'Iris. I hope you are well<3
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034 my dearest I will give you new homework 🥰🥰🥰... Please do try Hermes Voyage both EDP and EDT, Lombre des Merveilles edt... First has a juniper note and is a bit herbal and salty and last has a sea breeze note that is so beautiful and for a minty touch you can try Etat Libre d'Orage - You or someone like you... Send you lots of love and blessings 🥰🥰🤗❤️😘
Good evening Wendi. I really enjoyed listening to the factors determining what fragrances you want to wear to work. I agree with you very much that your particular job can have massively changing emotions/environments from one minute to the next, and that you have to be considerate on what you decide to wear to work as a person who really enjoys their fragrances. One fragrance I find very affordable and is a very nice scent for work is Davidoff Zino. Even though it is sold as masculine fragrance, I think a lady could easily wear a couple of sprays to work and it would smell beautiful on her. Another couple I wear to work are Guerlain's L'Instant De Guerlain and also Guerlain's Vetiver. Thank you for a very interesting and thought provoking video. I will look forward to your next one. :0) P.S. When I read the title the Eddie Cochran oringinal version of the song is on the one that came to my mind immediately.
Thank you for sharing your work scents! We spend so much time there... might as well make it a little nicer. I love both Guerlain Vetiver (classic) and the L'Instant de Guerlain ... that one is so nice for fall.
Oh, thanks for suggestion for the Zino perfume. That’s the one my partner wore when I met him and I think it’s an awesome fragrance. He still has a full bottle I gifted him. It smells amazing on him and I never thought about wearing it myself. I’ll give it a go :)
@@anah6270 I must say I have never smelt it on a lady, but I think it is a fantastic scent and I love it when I wear it. I think it is not overtly masculine or that it projects hugely, but it is one of my favourites. Exactly my area of fragrances I love, like Azzaro Pour Homme, Milano Cento Him, Rive Gauche (which is discontinued now for men and that's such a shame). Many, many more too. :0)
I once read in an older interview of Marc-Antoine Corticchiato that Annick's Eau de Sud inspired him. I can TOTALLY see this. In both Iskander and Eau de Gloire. Having never smelled vintage Sables, I'm super curious if it's much like Immortelle Corse. I'm so glad you've pointed me to this house!
I'd believe it Eau du Sud has been around for a long time and it's very of its own...now thinking of it Parfums d'Empire has a lot of overlap with Annick Goutal. Creative and natural seeming at the same time. I've always wanted to test Sables but I"ve not gotten to that one yet, truthfully sometimes immortelle is too much for me to wear.
Ya, kinda one of those type of notes. I will have to track it down and report 😆👍
Hei! A nice list there! I am retired, so I do not have to think about not offending people at work with my perfume, but I do have a large kitchengarden where I spend a lot of time in the spring and summer. I tend to not wear any perfume before the evening in this season, unless it rains and I am inside. When I am outside in the garden. there is always so much smell from flowers and vegetables and grass, and I can not really enjoy my perfumes. What I have been wearing lately is Byredo. I find they have some great offerings, and I buy them secind hand so they come a bit cheaper. Gypsy Water and Mojave Ghost, and also Eyes Closed are some of mny favourites. There is one perfume I enjoy out in the sun, Rituale from Mendittorosa, a very heavy perfume with beeswax and incense(I think), smells so intoxicating in high temperatures.
I agree I was weeding yesterday and I could smell my roses and my little marigolds. Along with the green earthy scent of ripped out weeds! No perfume needed for those times. Your kitchenette sounds so lovely and relaxing! Gypsy Water is the only Byredo I have and a decant at that ... I grew to like its minimalistic approach. And the Rituale sounds pretty I like heavy hitters for sure.
Hi Wendi, I work from home so the minute my husband leaves for work, I put on whatever obnoxious fragrance I’m in the mood for.🎉 😂 Hopefully it’s at its base notes by the time he gets home and he never knows I was wearing 5 sprays of vintage Poison! If I have to go out, I’m very conservative with my fragrances and will wear something very quiet. I like CD Rouge Trafalgar or even EL Green Tea. 😊
Hi Christie I love your method! Wear perfume so loud at home the neighbors can smell it! It's really incredible how truly LOUD vintage perfumes used to be, I think they had to compensate for when everyone smoked. I think the universe is telling me something why is Rouge Tralfalgar suddenly on my radar? That's the 4th time this week I've seen something about that scent.
Bless your heart for the line of work you do. It’s not for the faint of heart and I can imagine how draining it can be. I’ve not smelled Prada d’Infusion Iris, is it anything like Hiris by Hermes? I love Hiris! It’s my go-to perfume for when I’m anywhere really and don’t want to offend anyone and yet, at the same time, want to enjoy a small scent bubble of my own. Currently, new-to-me this summer is Lilas by Fragonard, a realistic lilac perfume and it’s really inexpensive. It helps me feel less sad about summer being so fleeting. Ugh!
Infusion d'Iris is a little bit like Hiris. The Prada though is more green and powdery with galbanum and mastic, honest to say that the iris is in the background, versus the Hiris which is a green iris but it's ALL about the iris at the forefront. That is another lovely for sure! I love Lilacs ... might have to look that one up. Something about lilacs is so transportative probably because the trees are luckily everywhere and they smell so strong!
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034 aww. Thanks for your kind and detailed response. That helps! Yes, lilacs have that tendency to move me into that space of hopefulness and looking forward to life kinda feeling.
I’m so glad you finally made a video dedicated to your beloved Annick Goutals!
It was a long time coming and it was actually fun to talk about all them!
Hey, Wendi! If I love Chanel No.19 Poudre, should I get the Prada? Are you wearing a jumpsuit? It is very cute!
Oh yes at my age it's all about the jumpsuit! And they are very similar. How can I say this without being obvious? The Poudre is basically Prada Infusion d'Iris but with a more Chanel personality. It's slightly more elegant, aloof, and floral feeling. A normal personal doesn't need both per se but I definitely need both. I wear the Prada much more but somehow the Poudre is a bit more special.
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034 I think you’ve convinced me that I need the Prada as well.
Hi Wendy thanks for sharing your work scents with us. I have a few from this lineup with Infusion d’ Iris being one of my favorite soft, unisex choices. I’ve been a hairdresser for 25+ years so working in close proximity with the public I have to be mindful of what/how much fragrance I wear. I do wear perfume to work every day, I just have to know the correct dosage for stronger ones, or don’t wear them at all. At home, I have three rescue dogs and this past week two were treated for impacted anal glands and yeasty ears, so a big thank you for all that you do. ❤
Hi Betty I agree the dose makes the poison. And thank you for taking care of your three doggies I am sure they love you so much:)
Your thinking is sound. When you work with lots of people you do need to be mindful not to choke them out.
I remember during Covid we temporarily had to use Fabuloso on the floors! Like that along would make me not want to choke anyone out with fragrance lol.
I’m interested in trying that D & G Italian love. Love woody scents!
It's really a good woody one. Simple but compelling even.
nice outfit!
Thank you Wendy. Suddenly at my age I'm all about the jumpsuits.
Great picks as I love a good affordable perfume. Thanks Wendy!
Thanks Ana:) I get sick of everything being hundreds of dollars. Luckily there are still solid options for us plebs lol.
I love all of these and they are great for work. I’m a human nurse and I get your reasoning on how you decide if and what to wear!!
Oh you are in the trenches so you know what I mean! Can't have your favorite fun fruity floral mixing with vomit or something lol.
Nice topic! Thank you! I also have summer time blues a little. Thinking about raspberry perfumes to cheer myself up. Could you please do raspberry or your most happy perfume note video?
Hi Minga:) Summertime is supposed to be fun and carefree but I do get a little melancholy too especially when August rolls around. I think that is a good idea for a list of fragrances -- happy ones. Some really are mood enhancers.
Hi Wendi! I'm a court interpreter, so I try to be mindful of what I wear as well. Lately, I've been wearing Yellow Diamond, Donna (Troussardi), Light Blue Forever, Limon Verde (Guerlain) and JHAG Not a Perfume.
Hi Gerda! Love your list sounds like you smell great at work😊@@GerdaPratoEspejo
Hi Wendy, I enjoyed your video. I also wear lighter scents during summer. I’ve been reaching for M + Iris and Nuee Bleu as well as Tam Dao layered with Santal Basmati. Satori works beautifully on super humid 90 degree days. If I wear it during cooler weather, I can’t smell it. 😊 I also love Cristalle, Eau de Rochas and Eau Dynamisante. Both Shalimar Cologne and Champs Elysees ETD work on cooler, less humid days. For lavender, I wear the original Helmut Lang , au the Bleu, Lovely and Terre de Lumiere. These are some of the scents I wear to work and for sleep. So much perfume, so little skin! Thanks again for another interesting video.
Hi Petunia! So many people talk about Nuee Bleu & I feel like I should get a good decant of it or something seems like something I would like. Tam Dao is so solid & what a good idea to layer it with Santal Basmati! And that is funny I have old bottles of Cristalle both the EDP & EDT. I try to pull them out in the summer -- I don't wear them any other time of year they just don't work. Thank you for sharing your choices I'll have to look some of them up! Lol so much perfume and not enough skin I agree:)
@petuna23d98 Yes Champs Elysees is a good one.
Just ordered. Thank you!
Oh this old video! Glad I could help hope you love it:)
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034 you did!
I’ve tried a sample of La Violette last month (the current version I think?..), and I totally understand why you bought it immediately at that price. I can relate😅. It is a little melancholic, a little green (à la Vent Vert v.), and just lovely. It is on my [future] list of purchase, as well.
I really like it. Like you said it's fully green, green violet, but the rose and the raspberry really round it out appropriately. And so moody like AG should be!
I liked the Rosa Rosa forte and Rosa Palisandro forte and checked your video to see if it would help me make a decision. Ha! 😂 Anyhu, I liked the Mandarine Basilic and Yuzu oud besides these two from the Aqua Allegoria line. I have somehow never purchased a single Aqua and save my $ for the L’art and La Matiere line which is about 4x as pricy unfortunately. But at least they are less linear, even the “easier” ones like Neroli Plain Sud. My queen however is Rose Barbare from that line.
@@dasikakn Omg I love Rose Barbare. The spicy leather rose that one is so unique and amazing! I hope you can pick an affordable Rossa I think they are solid for what they are♥️. Thanks for the note:)
Good timing Wendy. I searched for reviews on this house last month but they weren't much. And yours just turned up on my feed today 😂. I do have 2 Annick Goutal on my wish list. Ambre Fetiche and Vanille Charnelle. I tried Ambre Fetiche last week, and it's too syrupy and dense for my liking😢. I was about to remove it from my list, but that's until you said 'appropriate for winter'. Seriously as a frag head why didn't I think of trying it again then. Do you have Vanille Charnelle? If so, can you tell me about it? I have Vanille Exquise and Nuit et Confidences. I like them both. They both have a place in my collection. I love your view of artistry in perfumes. Majority of influencers on RUclips just started niche perfumery and think it's a leveling up lifestyle which I find juvenile. As they become designer snobs 🙄. Can't stand it. A lot of niche fragrances promoted are not made of the finest ingredients nor have any form of artistry 😢.
@@genexyeHi there! I do have Vanille Charnelle. I like it but since you have the other two AG vanillas I think this will be redundant on your shelf. It's a good gourmet almost biscuits vanilla but it's close to the Vanille Exquise. As much as I like it if you have the others I wouldn't seek it out. I hope that helps and thank you for your thoughts and kind words!
Thanks Wendy. Do you mind sharing the link, where you bought Vanille Charnelle. Much appreciated. @@wendisparadeofperfumes5034
I find that vanilla is a good fix when a fragrance is too challenging. It also seems to me that Goutal may be doing an internal restructuring works, so i might as well take advantage of the discounts currently out there. Do you mind sharing the link where you bought yours from. Forgive me if I am repeating myself. But it seems my earlier reply didn't get posted as I can't see it on the thread.
@@genexye Truthfully I bought Vanille Charnelle years ago! I haven't seen it available anywhere except an occasional bottle on Ebay. I do agree though AG seems like they are restructuring. I wonder what is coming down the pipe so to speak.
@@wendisparadeofperfumes5034OK thanks. The word that best describes this house is 'if you know, you know'. That's why I have my eye out for it's discounted items. Thanks for your responses.
I have never heard of this company and I have over 300 fragrances. I am going to check and see if they have a discovery set because I like majority of the ones you described.
@@lashonnacollins5266 I think they do have one now. The one on twisted lily will give an idea of what they do. Some of their perfumes are definitely weird. Good weird for me but still. They also make little sample sprays for less commitment:) If you test any let me know what you think!
Amazing review ! Kelly Caleche EDP and Womanity EDP by Thierry Mugler are my all time favorites , my absolute must -haves !
@@LiLy-qd8nz Thank you Lily! I've loved these two Kellys for years now. They're just gorgeous fragrances. I've never tried the Womanity but I've always wanted to, it seems like an interesting scent profile.
