She’s absolutely phenomenal at describing each perfume. I just love it. She’s an absolute gem. And like someone else commented, I love that we’re hearing about fragrances that aren’t being talked about elsewhere. So glad I’m subbed. X
I'm KICKING MYSELF RN bc I just bought more perfumes but I'm absolutely obsessed with the way that Lover by The Maker, Musc Moschus, and Rose D'Encens sound! Love your content bc I feel like perfumes are expressive in a way that clothes and accessories aren't, which is so cool
SCENTS OF WOOD NEEDS MORE HYPE!! I recently tried Plum in Cognac (if you haven't smelled it, this is my plea to see it featured in a future video!) and it's so stunningly gorgeous that I'm hoarding my little sample like Gollum with The Ring. The plum is so sophisticated and intoxicating, the wood notes are perfectly balanced, and the rum and cinnamon come together for the best boozy-but-not-sloppy cheekiness that keeps me absolutely addicted. It has a soft brown leather jacket note from the labdanum that really grounds the plum and makes it comforting and cozy. And just a hint of vanilla to keep things leaning sweet, but not too sweet. It's perfectly unisex and it lasts for hours. I love a single light spray on my chest before bed, just a hug of scent that is still there when I wake up. I would love to know your thoughts if you have it, or if you pick it up in the future. Fantastic video, keep these coming! I really enjoy reviews that highlight lesser known houses and scents, let's get the word out and hype those hidden gems!
Hi Olivia, Hoping you will do a tutorial on finding your signature scent. I have gotten some friends into perfume via my passion for it, but I know my likes like I know my color pallette. I see a person needing a cold weather and warm weather scent wardrobe with the signature scent being their body shape, bra size etc. In my humble opinion, the spicy, seasonal, date fragrances all have to agree with the aesthetic of the signature, so finding that scent is the foundation for a collection. Can you suggest a number of possible signature scents? How you found yours? How you know you have found it? How to find a signature without spending major cash? Should a signature be appropriate in all weather? What if you live in the arctic or the tropics? Could an Alaskan wear Khamrah and a Floridian Sol De Janiero? What is the purpose of a signature? I think a perfume wearer needs a signature, a seasonal (aquatic/spicy), gourmand, and floral for each season. Your thoughts? Totally loving your channel. You are my fragrance fairy godmother
Just discovered your channel and now I'm on a marathon of your videos. 😅 I love how you describe the fragrances, there's something so different and refreshing about it in contrast to the more 'mainstream' channels that are beginning to sound repetitive to me. And many of these brands/houses I just heard for the first time, wow. A lot of new discoveries from just a single video. 🖤
I'm wearing ELDO She was an Anomaly today and I think it's would fit perfection this list. And I don't know why but it seems to do really well in cold weather for a skin scent. I love the combination of sweetness and clean that's not cloying to my nose at all. And I just keep catching whiffs of it and I am in love.
Literally just got a bottle of Divin Enfant delivered today! It was a blind buy but I was pretty confident that I'd love it (and I do). The leather note is similar to the one in Kelly Caleche, but I like it more with the creamy floral sweetness than with the Hermes' sharp citrus.
i recently discovered your channel and i'm going back and watching your old videos now. it's so cool to see how much your channel has grown and just wanted to wish you well. hope that you keep growing! i love your recommendations (i'm on the hunt for phlur's father figure but it's sold out at all the sephora's near me and online) and always look forward to a new video every saturday 🥰
This is SUCH a good question! I'd love to know too. A college prof had a diffuser that smelled like Fruit Loops. He was one of the coolest profs, he was an amazing teacher, and was even more awesome during his office hours, and the fruit loop smell was more incentive to go. I never had the courage to ask what it was (even though he was really chill and probably would have told me). It's always been in the back of my head though.
Can someone tell me what are the perfumes on the top left shelf behind her with the little round tops? I’m obsessed with the bottles cause they look so cute
Ode to Dullness smells like soap or fabric softener to me, but I can not figure out whats the ingredient that makes it smell like that, does anyone know?
I appreciate your explanation of fig. I do have to comment that when the masses hear "fig" it's almost like a click word that people say they love without really knowing what fig scents smell like. Personally I am not a fan of fig scents. I find it off putting very vague powdery that is so light there's almost a emptyness, nothingness to it that to me, it's blah, bland no depth yet still like, that's it? That's all it is? Over rated note that never warrants the price tag.
Oh boy, I appreciate you but the notes you seem to like aren't my taste. Oh no with the iris, violets. Powdery nothing that I find boring and wastes of money. To pay these prices, the fragrance should command, otherwise, just get some BBW body spray with those same notes. Ugghh

That scent sounds fantastic!!!
I love, love, love plum in cognac too! I've ordered it off of scentbird twice now.
Praline & maple was my scent on a cold day of thanksgiving this year. Great scent
Your makeup is *chef's kiss*
I love my Purple Powder and the Tonkapeach. Yes, I am a fan of the house.

Beautiful Olivia! Would you consider taking us through some of your makeup? Would be awesome! Love you!
You explain fragrance so well❤

I love when you upload...Always the best recommendations and descriptions❤❤
Love hearing about different fragrances that no one is talking about. I have Ode to Dullness and love it!

Aaaaaw: DIVIN' ENFANT is my signature scent: marvellous, cozy, edgy but crowdpleasing 😊
Love if u could do a review of the whole Nest fragrances!
I came for the scent recommendations and stayed for the eye look and sweater🥰 happy holidays!!
Amazing selection! I have been really craving everything green and evergreen, I have to sample the Veronique Gabai one! Thank you 🎉🎉
Golden Nectar is probably my favorite fragrance from Nest. Very underrated.

:) fairy godmother indeed. This video is tailor-made for me, thank you!

Love these suggestions!! I also love learning new perfume houses thank you Olivia!
Musc Moschus is a beauty 😍
Is there a perfume that smells like Dr Pepper ? Love your videos🩷

BDK Rouge Smoking
pragyasingh2297- Not sure what the professor was using but Accident a la Vanille Creme De La Berry smells like fruit loops or fruity pebbles
Mancera Tonka Cola.
Can someone tell me what are the perfumes on the top left shelf behind her with the little round tops? I’m obsessed with the bottles cause they look so cute
They're Pearla Nera perfume oils! Lalibela, Oud Swap, and Musk Swap are my FAVES. Super affordable too, and a little drop goes a looooong way!
