When I had a bigger collection I would wear 1 and put it aside on a different table. After 8 months I would look at the reck of the ones I did not touch ONCE. And I just decluttered them.. I had to be strict. I am a normal person with a normal job, I didd'nt need 50 perfumes. Now a few years later I have 15 perfumes and I am much happyer with that amount 😊 I realized clutter and too much stuff gave me anxiety. Also got rid of 50% of my clothes.
Just a suggestion, but maybe it would help if you approached this declutter differently. Maybe you pull your favorite(s) for each occasion, time of day, category, first and put those aside as what is definitely being kept. Then take a hard look at what remains and ask yourself if it replaces something you have already set aside or fills a particular gap. If it doesn’t, maybe it doesn’t deserve a home in your curated collection.
Totally understand!!!! My makeup, hair products, and my Fragrance collections all leave me feeling overwhelmed and a bit panicky that I’m wasting and overcluttered. AND after you try or buy, it’s so hard for me to get rid of without using the whole thing, which is next to impossible when you have this much …. Yet it’s so so hard to still not get more when the “new” comes out.
Hi Erin absolutely loved this video! I typically just watch but had to comment as my heart sunk when you shared a Roja as part of your declutter as well as the two from Une Nuit Nomade as I am obsessed with that fragrance house! But I do understand Space is a priority.... as a fragrance collector I face that challenge quite frequently! 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤ In any event, I hope after watching this video I can muster the bravery to go pick some of my fragrances to declutter! And by the way you are looking fabulous as always!!! ❤❤❤
Applause for yourself,👏👏👏👏 dear Erin, as this is difficult, i know how much you love perfumes, and you ae sooo good in describing them always, there is something about you, and describing fragrances, it made me purchase succes fragrances like Dama Bianca and Lira! You do everything well thought out, having in mind who you want to gift it to, your mother, or other persons, i did not expect anything else, as, although the collection is to big now for you, they are so special for you! Love to see your spring clean up/declutters, have a wonderful day!!!😘😘😘😘
I'm not familiar with some of the brand fragrances and it is not even available in the country I'm currently residing in but I'm saving this for future references. I have variety of scents and wear it depending on my mood (not on the occassions since I only want to smell the scent for myself). Also, I always do a short tour for quick smell test at fragrance stores as much as I can if no bookstores available on sight (site). Thank you for sharing these collection and I like how you describe or give criticisms in a very detailed way. You inspire me to be more specific and meticulous in choosing preferences. ♡
I watched part 2 first and I was truly intrigued when you put Valaya on the chopping block. I appreciate your honest input about why the fragrances are going bye bye.
Why would she keep something because you like it? That makes no sense. Seems silly I have to ask that question. Her decisions to declutter or keep a perfume has 0 impact in your life.
@@subrosa7mm She was being ironic… It's obvious she doesn't care and Erin’s declutter has no influence in her life, I don't know why people take seriously everything😅
I loved this! I like sunflower pop so much so now I’m really curious about what citrus fragrances you prefer over that. Could you make a video showing which ones are your current favorite citruses?
fragrance is so personal, what works for some, others hate. I love Chanel #5 and others just hate it. Go figure. Perfume companies know that. I understand what you mean when you say the first spritz sells a fragrance to you. I find so many most modern fragrances just harsh at that first spritz, I just can't deal with it. I don't find the same with most Chanel fragrances however. They are pleasant from first spritz to last scent.
Boardwalk delight straight up choked me out. I put it on my sweater and then my pulse points and 30 minutes later..when I tell you I felt like I BATHED in laundry detergent. My boyfriend said it was giving him a headache just being near me. I had to take my sweater off.
I agree with Suma being more on the masculine side. I fell instantly in love with Click Song, which has the same depth and sort of vintage masculine feel as Suma on paper, but was MAGIC on skin. The top of Murmure immediately reminded me of a yummy discontinued Dior, “Escale aux Marquises,” and I ended up spraying that over Murmure because Murmure’s performance was lacking and the beautiful base notes never wafted up to my nose 😥
Haha, we seem to be on the opposite sides of the preference spectrum; I love some of the fragrances you've decluttered - Heritage, Electric Cherry,... However, I do understand why you are decluttering them.
Sometimes a declutter is necessary! I can only imagine it must be overwhelming with a collection as large as yours. I'm wearing Narcotic V today and I adore that one. Sorry it didn't work for you. Always a joy pretty lady!
commodity gold personal is one of my favorites lately! I just have a travel size that I am burning through. I definitely will get the full size next time!
I purchased a sample of Elixir and fell in love❤❤so much so… I think if I owned one bottle let alone two bottles I would have to keep them both! Your special friend will love it!!!
Girl I almost unsubscribed when I saw you hold up Elixir, lol. I bought it on your recommendation and am currently on my second bottle. It’s one of my fave scents, especially on summer vacation. But I’m a FL girly too so I get a lot of use out of it. The new packaging is nice, but I’m partial to the original bottle. I’m going to snag a couple backups of the OG bottles at a discount cause those are 3.4oz and the new bottles are 2.5oz, and retail for the same price 😳 And I listened to your reasoning, so I’m still a subbie lol 🥰
Great declutter! With Carmina, I have the same experience and it’s the style of ambroxan that comes across as screechy and harsh. I have the same issue with BDK’s Pac Se Soir extrait. I do love Metallique tho. It is the child of Bianco Latte and Krigler’s ridiculously priced Abracadabra.
If you don’t have anyone in mind to give Roja Elixir too, I would GLADLY take it off your hands😂 this fragrance has been on my wish list for quite sometime😍
Taif Aoud isn't for everyone it took me minute now it's a love, never tried Electric Cherry, Idole is pretty, I'm sure whoever you give these fragrances too will be very happy.
lol Listen, I have an extra bottle of Oriana somewhere I think too but at least its in the box and not on the shelf. It depends on your collection, I feel really overwhelmed at over 300 bottles. I need to make space! xx
@@ErinNicoleTV I can say that both of mine are still in the box! I have a list of perfumes that I want but have so many that I’m putting it off until I go through some of the others. But the self control is hard!
TF's Metallique???😮 Oh dear, i heard it's bn discontinued, u sure u wanna let it go? Sonic flower and Flamenco😮??? ... Ok Erin, ryt now I'm just wishing i was ur very close friend 😊
I love Carmina, but the Saffron makes it a fall/winter fragrance for me. One influencer describes Carmina as a spring fragrance, so I tried it recently in the warmer weather? It just didn’t work for me, and it’s the Saffron…just heats up my skin. All that being said, Carmina is a standout fragrance!!
Idk why but when I imagine having a ton of perfume I imagine using one for a week and going thru all of the shelves but I know in reality I probably wouldn’t like half of the ones I owned
Erin, I totally agree with you about lychee Rose … I too live in Miami & I immediately thought the same thing when I sniffed that same fragrance at Sephora
Guidance for me is awful! This is how sad I am since everyone kept saying how amazing it is.. I have had 2 or 3 men in my life also say to me "What are you wearing... I don't like it" Please don't be tricked like I was... Its not cheap and head ache inducing! Extremely "chemical" smelling. Its putrid! Defs sample it! Both times I tried to wear it I had to scrub it off! It's hard to get it off too! Made me quite stressed

U should sell some of them!!! I feel like people would love to have a perfume from u that has sat on your glorious perfume shelves.
Right❤
As an influencer, I don't think she can sell the gifted items. Maybe do a give away is all
@@geebrewer8186 trust me they do sell them , the cycle goes hypes then they are never seen again and sold on macari
I don’t like to wait either. If I don’t love the whole experience of the perfume, out it goes. Great declutter!
You’re stronger than I am @jaxbeautifulyou lol
Just a suggestion, but maybe it would help if you approached this declutter differently.

Personally I like seeing all your perfumes in the background…..❤
Me too! I think its a nice frame :)
Love this video! I can’t imagine having 300 perfumes to store... I am completely shocked that you are declutterring two Roja perfumes Erin!!! ❤❤❤
I know right? I need a friend like Erin!! 😆
I need to do a declutter as well. What do you do with the bottles that are rejected when you try to give them away to others? Can’t wait for Part 2!
Totally understand!!!! My makeup, hair products, and my Fragrance collections all leave me feeling overwhelmed and a bit panicky that I’m wasting and overcluttered.

My mouth hit the floor when I saw Elixir in your hand!😂
But then came the explanation, and I exhaled!😅 one of my faves!!

Here for these no buys & declutters! Looking forward to the future videos to come. It will give me some inspo 🙌
I wouldn’t let go of the OLD bottle. They’re always better than new ones of the exact same fragrance due to constant reformulations!
I'm with you on Carmina. It wasn't what I thought it would be because there was something SO sharp. I'm not sure what it was that I was smelling!
Are you selling the ones you declutter? Do you have a Mercari? Can you share bc I’d love to snag a few you don’t want. Thanks so much for sharing
Nice declutter!! I am to the point now that if I don't reach for it, out it goes!
How do you clean the dust from all those perfumes? one by one?😵💫
the Nest fragrances are def bold, I love the Indigo one and the Wild Poppy, so good!!

girl we need a hair care routine ❤

Hi Erin, I am here watching from England 🇬🇧 I’m hoping that you do not declutter any of my favourites 😅

Hi Erin. I love your collection! Do you have any fav from Byredo and Diptyque? Please let us know ❤😍😘
Mercari please!!! I want a few on the list. Love your channel
YES PLEASE‼️‼️‼️😊💕

I absolutely love Siberian Rose and always get a lot of compliments when I wear it. 😊
Erin you can never have too many bottles of la vie est belle!! ❤ Also what lipstick/gloss are you wearing in this video??
I have to switch my fall/winter out and then bring out spring/summer. It helps a little if you don’t like all the congestion of your fragrances.😊

Great Erin. Do it in two parts in a refine and define style. I try to evaluate things each season because things change. I too enjoy a rose 🌹 note.

I’m obsessed with boardwalk delight I’m about to have to buy another bottle I’m obsessed
commodity gold personal is one of my favorites lately! I just have a travel size that I am burning through. I definitely will get the full size next time!
I love this video, excited for part 2 ... thank you for sharing Erin ♥♥
I get what you are saying about TF's Electric Cherry 🍒. Cherry Smoke is the better of the two.
Definitely need a part 2!
Love your work so hard to do I love my way floral over summer 🌺 but it has to be done. I understand, Looking forward to part 2
I purchased a sample of Elixir and fell in love❤❤so much so… I think if I owned one bottle let alone two bottles I would have to keep them both! Your special friend will love it!!!
Love these, thanks for sharing Erin!
I'm so sad for TF metallique. That's one of my all time favourite vanillas, so comforting and unique 😢😂 I wish I could get it from you haha 😄
Do you have any recommendations for a fresh grapefruit or orange scent for hot summer weather? Some vanilla in the base would be ok. 🍊
Omg, I thought you are about to declutter Elixir!!! Thank goodness. Its my favorite Roja Parfum🥰
I love this type of videos!
Hayley Kiyoko is a singer and actor lol. She started out, with Disney, in Lemonade Mouth and Wizards of Waverly Place.
Omg I love metalique❤

But I’m a FL girly too so I get a lot of use out of it. The new packaging is nice, but I’m partial to the original bottle.

So excited to see what you’re going to let go. Siberian Rose is on my wishlist 😂
Great declutter! With Carmina, I have the same experience and it’s the style of ambroxan that comes across as screechy and harsh. I have the same issue with BDK’s Pac Se Soir extrait. I do love Metallique tho. It is the child of Bianco Latte and Krigler’s ridiculously priced Abracadabra.
I keep wanting to love Carmina but my nose won’t let me truly enjoy it lol it smells so heavy to me! Xx
Love a good declutter!
I ordered Skylar Boardwalk Delight, and it hasn't come yet. I'm hoping it will layer well with Delina. I really don't like Delina.
I'm sure you will like My Way Nectar💖 It's so delicious and fruity. I've realised that we have the same perfume taste 🥰
I'm down to just over a hundred full bottles. No longer buying things that are just a "like". Gave them all away to family and friends.
I get so curious to smell all of those perfumes! I’m really picky when it comes to fragrance, it’s hard for me to like something 😅
If you don’t have anyone in mind to give Roja Elixir too, I would GLADLY take it off your hands😂 this fragrance has been on my wish list for quite sometime😍
What do think about the New jean Paul gautier parfum for woman? Live your videos❤❤❤
I gave All my flanker to Daisy Marc Jacobs to my niece to wear to school.
Hehehe that intro!
i love electric cherry
Taif Aoud isn't for everyone it took me minute now it's a love, never tried Electric Cherry, Idole is pretty, I'm sure whoever you give these fragrances too will be very happy.
When u do a new set up for perfume make a video n also do a perfume shopping vlog
“Silly to have 2 bottles of the same fragrance.” Thinking: “I have an extra bottle of Cairo and Oriana.” 😂😂😂
lol Listen, I have an extra bottle of Oriana somewhere I think too but at least its in the box and not on the shelf. It depends on your collection, I feel really overwhelmed at over 300 bottles. I need to make space! xx
@@ErinNicoleTV I can say that both of mine are still in the box! I have a list of perfumes that I want but have so many that I’m putting it off until I go through some of the others. But the self control is hard!
My gasp at you holding up Elixir 😂 I'm not a fan of metallique either
Could I buy your Skylar I live in the uk and can’t get this perfume xxxx
50 is my cap and there’s at least 10 of my 50 that I don’t repurchase. However, I loveeeee seeing large collections. Just untenable for me ❤
The way I ran when I saw Elixir
Can I buy boardwalk delight from you
TF's Metallique???😮
Oh dear, i heard it's bn discontinued, u sure u wanna let it go?
Sonic flower and Flamenco😮??? ... Ok Erin, ryt now I'm just wishing i was ur very close friend 😊
I can't believe my eyes 😮😮😮
I wish I was your friend to get that extra Roja Elixir bottle 😅😂

Erin can i have the electric cherry?
Idk why but when I imagine having a ton of perfume I imagine using one for a week and going thru all of the shelves but I know in reality I probably wouldn’t like half of the ones I owned
Oh no, not Siberian Rose 😢
I’ll be your friend…..I’ll take Elixir!!!
❤❤❤
I have about 25 and half of the time I dont know what to wear so I could imagine how difficult it is for you. 😂
❤
Noooo not elixir! I want it plssss 😭😭😭
Carmina has way too much patchouli for me
Erin, I totally agree with you about lychee Rose … I too live in Miami & I immediately thought the same thing when I sniffed that same fragrance at Sephora
Glad to see you back Erin and How r u doing I hope you are doing good and how's your health and I wish you have a blessed weekend xx💖💖😀😀
Thank you! Feeling much better :) xx
Tom ford's Metallique made me so 🤮🤢nauseous
Not your friend i coul have make one of your fragrances my home.
