I am a male. I just bought: FlowerBomb NECTAR, the YSL Mon Paris EDT and also the YSL Intensement version for mother's day. I try to make my wife and my Mother in law happy in the house.💃💞🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️
My first thought when I smelled this for the first time was...this has been DONE TO DEATH!!!! Why do these companies keep making the same fragrances over and over. What ever happened to creativity and originality?! These fragrances are soooo boring!! I used to like these fragrances when they were new and different, but come on... perfumers have been beating a dead horse for YEARS now. I think that's how I began to fall in love with some classic fragrances (i.e. Mitsouko, Shalimar, Hypnotic Poison, Bal A Versailles, just to name a few) because they are so different that, though they have been around forever, it's like they are new and interesting. It is also why I began to look to the niche brands (many of which have been big let downs for me, but I could not accuse them of being boring). I can hardly wait for this (seemingly unending) trend to come to its end! That's my rant, sorry!
LOL I was giggling at your rant the whole time I was reading it....because it's true! This trend needs to die NOW! The poor horse is beat to shreds already. Poor guy! :)
What’s with the oh-so-popular vaguely lemon, you know which one I mean...bug spray to my nose. It’s intense partner in crime is..well..so very similar to Lemon Pledge. I seem to be missing the attraction...
Wow you described this fragrance exactly how i feel about it. I blind bought it online because I watched some positive reviews about it, I was expecting sweet fragrance which it is, but without that overload of patchouli and heavy musk..
Hey Delicious Delights, I totally agree with you It's a little bit generic like all the other bestsellers... it's ok but nothing special to me... But the bottle is very pretty and that's all You are really great!!!! I luv you're videos! What do you think about Versace Crystal Noir EDP not the EDT ? :-)
Hi Suri! Lovely to hear from you again! Versace Crystal Noir...I'll have to try to get my nose on it when I'm at the perfume store as it's been much too long since I've smelled either. Hope all is well :D
Funny how our noses are so different. I know this is a womens frag but still I tried and asked a sample of this for the wife because I love how it smells and I am so picky when it comes to what my wife will like because she is too so hard to please when it comes to fragrances. Luckily,she love it too just like I did. I think that what matters most.
Guess I have been out of the loop for so many yrs it is all brand new to me!! I'm not getting too much of a jammy smell after half an hr but am surprised at how long it last and the stronger silage which is good for me because so many perfumes wont last even an hour on my skin.. This one did and longer tho!! I get florals and musk in it so I wouldnt exactly want to spread it on toast and eat it, LOL. I did smell the La Ve est Bell and it gave me an instant stomach ache! Mon Paris is mild in comparison to that level of sweetness.. Give it a sniff and test run on your skin and dont just rely on someone else's review on youtube..I actually liked it enough to buy it and so this is a lesson learned for me..
Haha. I love this review! That’s exactly how it made me feel. Infact it smells like Garnier Fructis shampoo to my nose! I really really “wanted” to love this one…but sadly, I did not. Nothing special about it.
I enjoy your reviews a lot! I still haven't tried Poison Girl but apparently it might not come to US retailers. Strange seeing as I think the US market might be the best home for it. I also want to try the new blue Guerlain LPRN flanker, even though I suspect it won't be a favorite...
Thanks for the fab review. I just tonight smelled this on a scent strip. Now we know strips are crap and likely a poor representation of the perfume, but ...yuk. I couldn't toss that thing into the trash fast enough. You're right, I smelled (almost) every. other. awful (Imo) designer perfume out there, today. There is fabulous patchouli but not in the designer realm. Have you tried Jalaine Patchouli? ... it is absolute heaven.
You're most welcome Holly! Yeah this was pretty meh wasn't it. I guess many don't agree with us though showing by the amount of hate I get from this video for some reason LOL. * shrugs shoulders * Can't please everyone I guess. I've not tried it, but I'll keep it in mind :D
This is a thought, and if anyone wants to hate, hate on me, I don't mind. ;) I'm wondering if really young people just aren't getting to smell great stuff, anymore. How would one ever develop a discerning palette with the *typical* offerings available today? Age is good for some things :/ : I grew up in an era of super fine fragrances ... and music. Most twenty-somethings (not all, of course!) likely see us as snobby in our likes and non-likes. Speaking for myself, I've simply had a lot of experience because perfume is a true love of mine. that's differs from snobby. After all, one of my forever favorites is Coty's Wild Musk. In the '70s, the drugstores carried so many cool scents it was nuts! :)
Really like your method of reviewing a fragrance. I soooo agree with you about the sort of uniformity among the women's designer fragrances. I sniffed this one at Sephora and didn't think much of it as to trying a sample of it and maybe eventually buying it. Bottle was the reason why I got attracted to it at first . But soon it was just another Meh! ; p
Agreed with you and I believe it's been influenced by the new owner, Lo'real. Its full of alcohol and cheap ingredients ... but funny they don't reduce its price. Ridiculous!!
I just bought a rollerball of this. Hour 3 it’s very candy. It’s making me hungry. I remember it more floral in the store. Do you think perfumes change in the bottle? Maybe my newer bottle is more fruity and as it ages like the tester in the store maybe it will turn more floral? I seem to notice differences with my Mugler Angel like that. That one seems to have become more spicy. Could be the weather or something also?
Hi Arlene, I was wondering if you would be open to splitting m.micallef ylang, amouage sunshine and Mona di orio vanilla. You got me totally hooked on these frags but I can't afford full bottles of them. I live in Canada.
Absolutely. Pretty delicious scent, but unfortunately it doesn't last and I'm not wowed. I received a sample and truthfully, I just wear to bed. I'm unimpressed.
Totally agree on this review....I got a 3.4oz bottle for Christmas from my mom-in-law, and I can't stand it. On my skin, this is a headache inducing musk bomb. Bleck. Luckily, my teenager enjoys it, so I was happy to pass it along..... :)
I have mixed feelings about this fragrance. On my skin I initially get a harsh, sour pear. It almost has a latex, plastic smell. It is really off-putting. Waiting for it to open up I get crazy berries. Lurking under the jam is musky, patchouli notes. It is the bastard child of Si, La Vie est Belle and Coco Mademoiselle. I don't like on my skin as much as I like it on my clothes. On skin it is sour, metallic jam - on clothes it is a soft musky powder. Meh. I will wear it because my son gave me a (huge) bottle as a gift but it is not a go-to scent for me. The bottle is gorgeous, though!
Yup nothing new, I have smelt it before. And this is the kind of perfume vibe that is not ME. it's too musky and strong to my liking. I only blind bought this due to the cute bottle with that black bow.
I am a matured woman and this perfume smells mature but I still prefer light inoffensive scents from chloe, miss dior blooming bouquet and versace bright crystal.
Very interesting and I enjoyed your wonderful review. I must say I am not a jammy fragrance fan. So .... Cheep Generic and ....Bubblegum...Ewww! Well I should test it and I will. Candies that no one wants. LOL Yes I know them. What is it about Granny's that draws them to those horrid candies. Do love the bottle.
I am a male. I just bought: FlowerBomb NECTAR, the YSL Mon Paris EDT and also the YSL Intensement version for mother's day. I try to make my wife and my Mother in law happy in the house.💃💞🧚♀️🧚♀️🧚♀️
I think the beauty of this fragrance is in the dry down ...it needs 20 mins, the sharpness goes and a pleasant floral warmth is left .......

With all respect but I disagree with you!!!
When a reviewer say "we have smelled it before" me as a relatively new fragrance nerd want to know: from where? Overall I like your reviews a lot!
Wow you described this fragrance exactly how i feel about it. I blind bought it online because I watched some positive reviews about it, I was expecting sweet fragrance which it is, but without that overload of patchouli and heavy musk..
Hey Delicious Delights, I totally agree with you It's a little bit generic like all the other bestsellers... it's ok but nothing special to me... But the bottle is very pretty and that's all

What do you think about Versace Crystal Noir EDP not the EDT ? :-)
Hi Suri! Lovely to hear from you again! Versace Crystal Noir...I'll have to try to get my nose on it when I'm at the perfume store as it's been much too long since I've smelled either. Hope all is well :D
I think the edt is crap ;)
+Delicious Delights hey cutie ...what do you think of la panthere by cartier
I want to know too! Personally, I love it.
I have , and really never regretted just amazing and stay in your skin
Nice review! Also love your glasses. :) I hope you're having a great summer,DD!
Awww thanks so much Kiki! I hope you're doing well! :D
I’m wearing it now and you just reminded me of my grandma when I was smelling my arm and you said that🌹🥰
Funny how our noses are so different. I know this is a womens frag but still I tried and asked a sample of this for the wife because I love how it smells and I am so picky when it comes to what my wife will like because she is too so hard to please when it comes to fragrances. Luckily,she love it too just like I did. I think that what matters most.
The fragrance community would be a very strange place if we all had the same tastes in fragrance. ;) Glad she loved it :D
Dito Patrick, I LOVE this frag! this and Angel Muse, I'm totally buying for her, I MELT when i smell these. SO GOOD!
Guess I have been out of the loop for so many yrs it is all brand new to me!! I'm not getting too much of a jammy smell after half an hr but am surprised at how long it last and the stronger silage which is good for me because so many perfumes wont last even an hour on my skin..

Brand new subscriber here, loving your videos!! Random question: is that a Karate Kid poster in the background, that is one of my favorite movies. :0)
Thank you so much! YES that's indeed a Karate Kid poster...also one of my fave movies of all time! LOL :D
your glasses look stunning on you !!! i love your choice ! love love love it !
She should save it for my first date with her. Dans mes rêves bien sure.
I enjoy your reviews a lot! I still haven't tried Poison Girl but apparently it might not come to US retailers. Strange seeing as I think the US market might be the best home for it. I also want to try the new blue Guerlain LPRN flanker, even though I suspect it won't be a favorite...
Thanks so much! Yeah I haven't heard any news of it making it over to US yet. I'll be sure to mention it if I hear otherwise ;)
That’s your opinion I respect that, however I don’t fully agree 👍
Thanks for the fab review.

Tbh it smells very expensive and pretty I have it and I love the perfume

BrendaR4 on me, the EDT is sweeter n more fruity. The EDP has more musk. I noticed a change also. I like the EDT, it’s a non offensive safe fragrance.
I totally disagree on this review.
Juliett Gort how...what’s your take please tell
I think it smells a bit like midnight fantasy
Hi Arlene, I was wondering if you would be open to splitting m.micallef ylang, amouage sunshine and Mona di orio vanilla. You got me totally hooked on these frags but I can't afford full bottles of them. I live in Canada.
Hi! I don't think I'll be splitting these but I will definitely let you know when/if I do. So great to hear that you love them! :D
Absolutely. Pretty delicious scent, but unfortunately it doesn't last and I'm not wowed. I received a sample and truthfully, I just wear to bed. I'm unimpressed.
Oh I'm definitely not wowed either. I guess I'll keep searching.. ;)
Would you mind reviewing Couture flanker of this Month Paris?
Totally agree on this review....I got a 3.4oz bottle for Christmas from my mom-in-law, and I can't stand it. On my skin, this is a headache inducing musk bomb. Bleck. Luckily, my teenager enjoys it, so I was happy to pass it along..... :)
LOL I'm glad you agree! Judging from the amount of dislikes I get on this video though, I guess many people would have to disagree. Oh well ;)
they sprayed that on a card on a card for my wife at Macy's and right away i got the berry note. what do you think of chanels coco Noir?
Hi! Coco Noir...it's been a LONG time since I sniffed that one. I'll have to try and test it again. Thanks for the suggestion! :D
@@DeliciousDelights Attention! Coco noir is a French expression that means....
a pretty smell. refreshing in hotter weather. not trying too hard I guess.
I have mixed feelings about this fragrance. On my skin I initially get a harsh, sour pear. It almost has a latex, plastic smell. It is really off-putting. Waiting for it to open up I get crazy berries. Lurking under the jam is musky, patchouli notes. It is the bastard child of Si, La Vie est Belle and Coco Mademoiselle.

reminds me of the original dior cherie
est ce que tu dirais que c'est une senteur gourmande? quel genre de femme porterait ce parfum?
Ana Zouhir c'est un parfum qui peut tres bien convenir pour des adolescentes qui veulent sentir léger et fruité et aussi aux jeunes femmes
je l'ai trouvé un peu insignifiant. ..pas pour moi
Yup nothing new, I have smelt it before. And this is the kind of perfume vibe that is not ME. it's too musky and strong to my liking. I only blind bought this due to the cute bottle with that black bow.
I am a matured woman and this perfume smells mature but I still prefer light inoffensive scents from chloe, miss dior blooming bouquet and versace bright crystal.
Three words come to my mind, department store, cheap, 101% synthetic
The original YSL Paris is miles away better than Mon Paris.
Very interesting and I enjoyed your wonderful review. I must say I am not a jammy fragrance fan. So .... Cheep Generic and ....Bubblegum...Ewww! Well I should test it and I will. Candies that no one wants. LOL Yes I know them. What is it about Granny's that draws them to those horrid candies. Do love the bottle.
Hi Lanier! Not only are there Granny perfumes but now, Granny candies! LOL *hugs!*
Ha!! I just woke up laughing. Big HUG!
I agree. Sweet sour fruitchouly, very generic.
I dont like this perfume
