Hey guys! I know I'll get questions; I ordered my Babycat from Holt Renfrew in Canada. Also learned it is available on ScentSplit! www.scentsplit.com/products/yves-saint-laurent-babycat-sample-decants?variant=42496193888456
It’s not discontinued, at least that’s what they told me at the Ysl store. They said eventually they’ll only have 125ml bottles, but right now is very hyped and everyone is buying it and they wait for new stocks to show up. I love it , too. I left the store with the 125 ml. And I have Rosendo 5 too. To me it smells like vanilla ice cream. I get where people are coming from with the rubber, but to me is like scooping with a stainless steel spoon vanilla icecream from this stainless steel container and you almost smell the frozen steel mixed with the ice cream . Not sure if you got your nose yet on Lune Feline. That’s another love for me, incense and vanilla . ❤
I own both. Luckily, I don’t get any burned rubber/gas from RN5. When I first got Babycat, I was sad because they absolutely smelled so painfully similar. Now that I’ve sat with Babycat, they aren’t alike at all! Babycat is so smooth and fluffy and beautifully vanilla. RN5 is more “aggressive” and bold. The magic is in the drydown for RN5. Whereas Babycat smells magical from the initial spritz to the dry down. I immediately bought a second bottle. I love both but Babycat? I want to live in that bottle.
Rosendo Mateu No 5 smells like gasoline or a chemical similar to burnt rubber, in my opinion. Yikes... I'm hoping it will change since I blind bought it. I'm pleased to hear that Babycat is a big hit for you ❣️
I don’t think they’re the same. I love RM 5 & a GREAT DUPE is Fragrance World Rouge 5. Crazy good & dirt cheap. The burnt rubber goes away & strangely becomes addictive 😝
I think the similarity might be saffron? I have both these perfumes (omg how good!) and i smell a likeness in brompton immortals which has saffron too and if smell oud for greatness in the same sitting I get it as well, please try and let me know what you think 😊
Wow I must’ve gotten a bad decant because I didn’t like Babycat. All I got was a strong incense/leather woody scent with very little vanilla.. but i mixed it with Spirituese Double Vanille and it smelled better. 😊
Have you or anyone tried vanagloria from laboratorio olfattivo? The same perfumer and may be a little easier to get in the US. Have seen some reviews saying similar but haven’t been able to get my nose on either yet. 😢
I bought it since I couldn't find Babycat. Babycat is better, I feel like it's the finished product whereas Vanagloria was the first demo. Canadians will know what I mean when I say, it smells like Canadian Tire for the first 30 mins to an hour and then the dry down is similar but not quite the same as Babycat. Babycat is truly remarkable and I'm kicking myself for not ordering it when I could. I have a feeling the next batch, if at all, will either be more expensive or tampered with, either changed or watered down. Hopefully not. But I'm also not willing to spend the $650-$685 some people are asking for right now.
I blind bought Rosendo Mateu and it made me sick when I tested it on my hand. There is a note in there that stings you and you get an upset feeling. I would gladly give it away and cut my loses.
I live in the US. If baby cat is available only in Europe, I might pull some strings to get the perfume. If it is discontinued in the us AND eventually Europe, Im not going to get it
@@thesimplechiclifeit’s available here in the UK but not sure if Harvey Nichols ship to the states. I’ve got it in my basket for £162 which I think is cheap.
To me they are nothing alike at all. I guess they both have vanilla and spices but the balance is completely different. I am very sensitive to the sharp, metallic saffron in the Mateu. To me it dominates and basically ruins the fragrance for me.

I asked a seller and she said Holt Renfrew ships to US.

So you would say it smells metallic?
Love Babycat...an instant love at that. Lasts long and makes me fell beautiful. A life long for me.

Yesssssss 🙌🏻 this^^^^^^
All day!!!
I have DUA's Vanilla Baby - its a dupe for Babycat. Took 30 days to sit and develop and its quite nice.
I have both and also don’t find them that similar, just similar vibe, RM5 is a bit more unique thou, both are 💯
Rosendo Mateu No 5 smells like gasoline or a chemical similar to burnt rubber, in my opinion. Yikes... I'm hoping it will change since I blind bought it. I'm pleased to hear that Babycat is a big hit for you ❣️
I totally get what you are smelling 😬
Ditto…ugh 😬😳🤢
Yaaaaasssss!!! I’ve been on a hunt for a video comparing those 2! THANK YOU for sharing your opinion ❤
You’re welcome! 💗
Just ordered it so I don't think it will be discontinued anytime soon... Hopefully I like it because it was blind buy at it's finest 😂
I was able to get Babycat on Scent Split.
Me too!
I don’t think they’re the same. I love RM 5 & a GREAT DUPE is Fragrance World Rouge 5. Crazy good & dirt cheap. The burnt rubber goes away & strangely becomes addictive 😝
Have you tried Penhaligon's Eau The Audacity? It's supposed to be better than Babycat.

I’ll take it! Lol
@@jj1106 Send me your address. I will mail it to you. Cuz I'm not using it!
Guess now I gotta go to Paris for Babycat.
I just learned it is available in the USA on ScentSplit! link in description
@@thesimplechiclife Yikes! So expensive though. My sister is going to visit the store in Paris this weekend so I'm going to see if she can get me one.
Yeah crazy how it’s literally twice the price in the states as compared to Canada!
Hello friend’s 🤗 no 5 vs ysl baby cat dupes mini love ❤️
I live in the US. If baby cat is available only in Europe, I might pull some strings to get the perfume. If it is discontinued in the us AND eventually Europe, Im not going to get it
Yeah I’m not even sure of the availability in Europe, I just know it’s hard to get in the states:/ I wish it was more available
It isn’t available in Europe either.
@@chaton20 yesterday I ordered a 75 ml bottle from the Spanish YSL website!
@@thesimplechiclifeit’s available here in the UK but not sure if Harvey Nichols ship to the states. I’ve got it in my basket for £162 which I think is cheap.
Have you tried indult tihota
Hey friends perfect mini love ❤️
I heard (from another RUclipsr) baby cat has a metallic smell?
Not to me! Rosendo 5 definitely does. Babycat smells smooth and delicious to me 💗
Where I can order it ?
Rosendo mateo smells very Synthetic. Good to know u feel the same. not tried babycat yet 😔
I think the number 5 that you have is incorrect trust me..
do you enjoy Ani from nishane?
Where did you get your baby cat ?
I had rosndu blind buy and I sold it I couldn’t handle it
Holt Renfrew in Canada.
@@thesimplechiclife I wish they shipped to the IS 😭😭🤣
Yeah, they don't ship to here
You may get lucky and find on Ebay, like I did!
@@Mimlou ok thx
