Yup! I got LDBS Extreme as soon as it launched earlier this year. My Kilian SA made sure I was one of the first to get it. I love LDBS OG so I was pretty sure I would love this. I do. I can't wait for Kilian to re-release LDBS Eau Fraiche because I have never smelled it, but I'm buying it! Not a fan of Gris Charnel. I don't like any BDK except for the newest one Velvet Tonka. It's my only BDK. I do like Bouquet de Hongrie and Pas Ce Soir, but not FBW to me. I have no Nest or JHAG scents. I have a friend sending me a decant of V&R Flowerbomb Nectar. So excited to try it! If you can find V&R Magic collection scents I think you would love them! I have Dancing Roses and Salty Flower. Dancing Roses is STUNNING. Salty Flower is so beachy and beautiful. I like Lavender Illusion sooo much, but the sample didn't last on me, sadly. I have tried them all except Dirty Trick... I know you like Byredo Sundazed, have you tried Simone Andreoli Pacific Park? You might like that.... or Leisure In Paradise. Adore you and your videos as always ❤
I was gonna blind buy flowerbomb Nectar after reading raving reviews, but then I ran into it at the mall yesterday and gave it a sniff. It's literally flowerbomb with fruity syrup. Glad I saved my money, because Viktor and Rolf isn't cheap anywhere you find it.
Been eyeing flower nectar for about 7 months now, I love flower bomb, so have been going back and forth with getting it!! I think though after your review I am gonna pick it up!! Great haul!!❤️
The next time you order from Fragrancenet grab the sample of Amour Nocturne from L'Artisan; the gunpowder note is strong in that one, and it will help you to pick it out in Nectar and other scents. It's also just an interesting and unique fragrance to sample!
Hi I love how you're so committed to making videos. I have tried all the light blue including the new one forever and I really don't like any of them, I find them very sticky. Lol
omg babe i recently went to sephora and tried mmm and flowerbomb nectar and died for both of them on the skin.... you be coming out with all the right vids queen! are we connected by the perfume gods??? maybe lol!! watching... 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆💥💥❤️❤️
Nice haul! I love the Light blue forever, Nest sun kissed hibiscus and Juliette has a gun Mmmm! 😍😍 unfortunately I couldn’t keep my Alien Flora Futura because it gave me a headache 🥺 but it was a really pretty scent from what I remember.
Tell me why I feel like this is the case for me with Alien Mirage 👽 I absolutely love it but I've noticed that the past couple of times I've worn it I just felt funky. I'm going to keep trying though!
Thanks for sharing your haul and thoughts on these fragrances! 😊 I need to re-sniff Gris Charnel. I didn't care for it when I first tried it because it smelled too unisex-masculine for my tastes. I haven't actually tried wearing it yet because I didn't like how it smelled from the sample, but I'll give it a wear test to be fair. By the way, I have a full bottle of Rouge Smoking and the label has a blemish too. I contacted BDK about it because I noticed a lot of bottles that I had seen in RUclips reviews had the same type of blemish. BDK informed me that they have improved their labels with higher quality material, so the older bottles have the paper-y labels with black ink smudges. Glad they improved the quality of their labels, but I'm kinda bummed that I got one of the older bottles - shucks!
Love your tray! Your mic is working great now 👍 I have been wanting to get light blue forever, but instead I got the love is love, it's light and pretty good... nothing ground breaking
Please keep us posted on LDBS Extreme and BDK Gris Charnel. I got the OG LDBS due to the price difference and people are saying they’re extremely similar and extreme not lasting any longer. 😅 Gris Charnel is in my wishlist - a slow burner for me too - I didn’t like it as much in summer but it’s heaven in winter. 😫
I have the same smudge on my Rouge Smoking label when I unboxed it. Eventually I figured that it must’ve been caused by the box’s inner lining. I’ve yet to figure how to make it disappear. I wish they’d make their labels laminated/ sorta like how Mancera label looks like. 😕 Interesting haul! Looking forward for pt. 2! 🤍
Gris Charnel, love it, so nice on a cloudy and cool day. I also almost never like or wear masculine or even unisex, but for some reason Gris Charnel is an exception to the rule
I also blind bought love dont be shy extreme a while ago! I agree with you, it’s just sooooooooooo addicting🥺 beside using it on during the day, I have to sniff the nozzle every night b4 I go to bed😅 also, the staying power is great on me! Super happy blind buy experience 🥰
Hi! What a terrific video and a wonderful assortment of fragrances. I love JHAG MMMM, but it doesn't last long on my skin. I love the unusual scent of BDJ Gris but I just got a sample, so have yet to pull the trigger on a full bottle. Keep up such awesome videos!!!
i have the new flowerbomb nectar. love it. i think its more updated version than the original i would like a new long lasting fresh scent what do you think of Miracle Lancome... is it too oldfashioned?
My decant of Love Extreme just came in the mail today! And I much prefer this one over the original. Stayed for a good 8hrs on my skin. Have you tried Good Girl Gone Bad Extreme? That one is even more long lasting. Smells like peaches 😍 a bit similar to Hundred Silent Ways. Also waiting for my gris charnel so excited!
I just got the Love Extreme, it’s beautiful however it faded away very quick on me. I also got a Light Blue but the Love is Love version. I bought an original black bottle Love don’t be shy from a Kilian fragrance group on Facebook and the seller is from Canada. I was able to get a coffret.
I ordered a travel size of the gris charnel and I’m not a big fan. I feel like it’s a bit more masculine than what I prefer. I’m trying to get used to it but I think it’s one of those that I would prefer to smell it on someone else.
I absolutely love listening to your voice. You definitely have a gift. I love your selections. I have been eyeing Love extreme, but I have the original.
Where did you guys find the Light Blue Forever? I want to try it. I purchased the Escape to Panarea for the 3rd time which I never do! But I have a connection with it. It reminds me of home and vacation. I messaged H Parfums if they gonna bring Velvet Tonka the new perfume by BDK but they haven’t replied yet! Will keep looking I want a sample 🤩 btw the fragrance section at Sephora is getting smaller and smaller 😵💫
@@thesimplechiclife I will wait till I find the tester. Are you going to the Saskatoon one or the Regina one? I can’t remember how the Saskatoon one is but Regina had almost all the left wall with perfumes for men and women. They had a decent selection of course with the most popular/designer but they used to have the atelier colognes which is niche now they are gone. It looks like they have the most recent releases and some staples. It made me sad. But what you expect. Small cities and a lot of scent free places 😩 it’s sad.
I will have to do a comparison video but the short answer is hibiscus palm is brighter, less sunscreeny, more floral, and has an added note of palm leaf. It lasts forever as well. Sunkissed hibiscus is more yellow floral coconut and a simpler fragrance:)
Does anyone else think BDK Gris Charnel smells a bit like a slightly more feminine Santal 33? I think it might be the sandalwood, iris, and cardamom combo (maybe also the tea note in Gris Charnel and the Papyrus note in Santal)? Not really sure but they really remind me of each other. I think both smell like dill pickles or like sweaty leather, but Gris Charnel is slightly sweeter haha
So. here's the thing, it might sound weird but do you know when you have like a injury in your lips and you taste the blood? or even when you get neddled in your finger and suck the blood? like someway you already tasted or smelled blood, and it has that kinda rusty thing, like metal. thats what gunpowder smells like, kinda metallic but not mettalic like tom ford mettalique, its kinda more rusty. it can sometimes smell cold. reading this it kinda sounds freaky but its the best way i could explain it lol. hope it helps
@@thesimplechiclife i dont own the perfume but yes, like those jewelry pieces that oxidate and leaves that rusty metal scent in your hands you know? thats kinda what i picked up. but it smelles good with the syrupy notes of the perfume
It would make sense that Gris Charnel would be sensual, as "charnel" means carnal in French 😉 I’ve yet to put my nose on that one! That Nest perfume seems very interesting! And if you say that the lasting power is pretty good, even better! I might get a travel size from Sephora 😉 And yes, as always, your sound is perfection! 👌🏼
your title says BKD just so you know! i really want to try love extreme because the original is too cloying for me but i heard the dose of rose in the extreme cuts down on this. also i love the rose + orange blossom/neroli accord!
I feel like you will inevitably end up declutteting Gris Charnel, like I did. Although it smells really good, it has zero sweetness to it, and I just didn’t feel feminine wearing it and so never reached for it.
I agree. I’ve had a sample for weeks & kept trying to make it work for me but it never did. The dry down was just too sharp for my liking. Gave it to my husband & it smells amazing on him!
Perhaps. Never say never right? I’m really enjoying it right now and I actually like it for daytime summer. It is quite masculine but it pulls very powdery on me which I like.
Is BDK gris charnel more « polarizing » that MFK oud satin mood? I tried Oud satin mood on me and I didnt like it at all. I like a unisex fragrance but it has to me « likeable »🥰 Should I try it?
Hmmm... I'd say it is quite polarizing yes. personally I feel like a lot of people love Oud Satin Mood but for me I can't really do it. But I do feel like it's equally as polarizing probably.
Good morning all! So have you tried the new Love Don't Be Shy Extreme? Thoughts??

Adore you and your videos as always ❤
Absolutely love it. My favorite scent in my entire collection. It literally spoke to me 😩❤️
Love dont be shy is one of my favourite fragrances and has really good longevity!
Where can I get a sample of this? I cannot find it ?
I absolutely love this fragrance! It makes me feel sexy! 💕 Great review
The microphone is soooo good! You have the best speaking voice ever..it's soooo relaxing. 😍
Awe thank you girl!! 🙈 I love your videos so much :) I watched the one you put out today on scents your man loves on you. Some amazing ones:):)
Looking forward to your updated perfume collection and Top 10!
I love Nest Sunkissed hibiscus! It’s such a gorgeous summer feminine scent. It has great lasting power on me. Glad you like it too!
That Mugler bottle is just absolutely stunning!!!!
This week I have been contemplating nectar and sunkissed hibiscus all week! Now I'm even more convinced I need both!
Sunkissed Hibiscus reminds me of Replicas Beach Walk initial spray then dries down more floral. I like it.
Yes I actually was debating this and beach walk and left with this:)
I was gonna blind buy flowerbomb Nectar after reading raving reviews, but then I ran into it at the mall yesterday and gave it a sniff. It's literally flowerbomb with fruity syrup. Glad I saved my money, because Viktor and Rolf isn't cheap anywhere you find it.
Coffee & a perfume haul? Perfection 💕
Agreed! And hello 👋!!!:) 💗
Ooh I’m excited to try Gris Charnel Extrait that was just released 😍
I struggled with Gris Charnel too - sprayed on a damp, rainy day and such a turn off. Now I love it! Love the cardamom, smells good in hot weather!🌞🔥🥰
Been eyeing flower nectar for about 7 months now, I love flower bomb, so have been going back and forth with getting it!! I think though after your review I am gonna pick it up!! Great haul!!❤️

KKW night iris is gorgeous too! Very budget-friendly alternative to Gris Charnel.
Hi I love how you're so committed to making videos. I have tried all the light blue including the new one forever and I really don't like any of them, I find them very sticky. Lol
Thank you!:)
I love Flowerbomb Nectar! Thank you for great content as usual
omg babe i recently went to sephora and tried mmm and flowerbomb nectar and died for both of them on the skin....
you be coming out with all the right vids queen! are we connected by the perfume gods??? maybe lol!!
watching... 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆💥💥❤️❤️
I'm soooo tempted so blind buy Flowerbomb Nectar 😋
awe thank you so much Jay you are a breath of fresh air! Love you
Great video! I like Flora Futura, it was my gateway to Alien and the bottle is gorgeous!
Nice haul! I love the Light blue forever, Nest sun kissed hibiscus and Juliette has a gun Mmmm! 😍😍 unfortunately I couldn’t keep my Alien Flora Futura because it gave me a headache 🥺 but it was a really pretty scent from what I remember.
Yeah it was a bit of an impulsive purchase. I’m not sure if I’ll keep it or return it :/
Tell me why I feel like this is the case for me with Alien Mirage 👽 I absolutely love it but I've noticed that the past couple of times I've worn it I just felt funky. I'm going to keep trying though!
Finally! Sunkissed hibiscus. Have been debating whether I need it because there’s 0 RUclips reviews on it 😂 thanks for this!

Love your tray! Your mic is working great now 👍 I have been wanting to get light blue forever, but instead I got the love is love, it's light and pretty good... nothing ground breaking

The bottles are very beautiful. Great video
I am coveting your haul! Especially Gris Charnel (my husband loves that on me) and Sunkissed Hibiscus, beautiful!
I also blind bought love dont be shy extreme a while ago! I agree with you, it’s just sooooooooooo addicting🥺 beside using it on during the day, I have to sniff the nozzle every night b4 I go to bed😅 also, the staying power is great on me! Super happy blind buy experience 🥰

I haven’t no!:) I’d love to though.
I got a sample of the Sunkissed Hibiscus and it has a very pleasant beachy summer feel.
Off all the Nest perfumes I really like Sunkissed Hibiscus as well
What is a great scent for fall? Love something Kind of strong but not sweet and a little bit masculine I guess that's what I think
Love don’t be shy extreme is an immense lifer! ♥️ will always rebuy!
I’ve only tried Gris Charnel once, but it really reminded me of Jo Malone Wild Fig and Cassis. I haven’t heard anyone talking about that though.
I love a unisex perfume, definitely gonna be trying bdk gris charnel
Mix the original Flowerbomb and mmmmm together, it’s to die for
That sounds amazing :) thanks for the tip!
Wear the original Flower Bomb with Coconut Lime lotion or body spray. It pulls out the bergamot and makes it summer appropriate.
I love florafutura, it is my spring summer Alien :)
I just got the Love Extreme, it’s beautiful however it faded away very quick on me. I also got a Light Blue but the Love is Love version. I bought an original black bottle Love don’t be shy from a Kilian fragrance group on Facebook and the seller is from Canada. I was able to get a coffret.
Would you say Love extreme is better suited for warm weather?
Between the two I’d say yes probably. The other was much sweeter so maybe could have been cloying in warm weather.
Love Flora Futura!! 😍😍😍
I ordered a travel size of the gris charnel and I’m not a big fan. I feel like it’s a bit more masculine than what I prefer. I’m trying to get used to it but I think it’s one of those that I would prefer to smell it on someone else.
That’s how I felt for quite a while. I really couldn’t ever see myself wearing it, but I’m glad I took my time and kept revisiting it.:)
Flora futura sounds lovely 😍

How does Sunkissed compare to Hibiscus Palm?? Do I need both 😅
I’d love to know as well… love Hibiscus Palm 💜

I have to try the Dolce and Gabbana Forever!! The original is too lemony for me:(

Oh!!! Thank you for letting me know. I fixed it :):)
Im thinking of sampling gris charnel but Im still searching for a man eater perfume
If I’m going to wear a watery fresh fragrance, I prefer L’eau d’Issey over Light Blue.
