Thank you for joining me Laura!! I have to catch up on your videos in the evening when I can watch with English captions on 😅 but I’m starting to pick up some fragrance words in German thanks to you! 🥰 And yes Atomic Rose is so gorgeous.
Marshmallow seems to be the accord du jour for Valentines eh? 😄 For me it's probably a dry suede leather. Very carnal, primal and the opposite of sweet. 😉 Incidentally, just like ouds, leathers can go so well with rose like in one of my favs from Memo - French Leather. 🥰 Always love hearing your picks Chelsea. ❤ Hope you and the fam have a wonderful Feb!🌹
In my head I would love to wear fragrances on a regular basis like what you're describing... but in my heart I want Candy Yum-Yum from MAC. 🤣 (I didn't feature it here because I don't have a bottle, but I had to mention because of the scent profile and name, lol!). Ah thanks for always stopping by and hanging out - I love my fragrance friends and our different tastes (and input) in a shared interest. 🥰
Hi Chelsea! ❤ Elixir is my favourite from the Burberry Her range as well, it so creamy!! Atomic Rose is so good!! 😍🌹❤️ I purchased Crème de Nude a long time ago and gave it away immediately, I got a molasses smell from it.. I'm wondering what I'd think of it now because my nose has changed so much over the last few years! 😃 I've never liked LDBS, I get chewable vitamin C from it, no matter how many times I try it! 🤣🙈🤭 Vera Wang Princess is one of those ones that is actually really nice, and if the scent was marketed as a new trending niche perfume, everyone would be going crazy over it. 😅🥰 Oooh I need to try Eau Rose ☺️💕 Loved spending time with you on your porch my friend! 🫶🏻😘✨
Oh no, not molasses! I do know you hate molasses!! 😂 LOL chewable Vitamin C is actually a great description. Oh my word yes, I think you're spot on with Princess... it makes me laugh how biased we all can be toward a bottle, name, trend, etc etc. Let me know what you think of Eau Rose - I know you like your roses to be deeper but I'm interested in what you think of Diptyque's take on fresh and dewy. 🌹
I’ve never tried any of the Ralph Lauren romance perfumes, but I would like to go to an Ulta and try some out🤓 And I love your analogy of the boy in class. I thought that was an amazing way to explain that perfume😋
So glad you are feeling better!! Great video...and more I'm adding to my sample list :) Eau Rose EDT is high on my wishlist...I was torn between that and Orpheon for Christmas and went with Orpheon. No regrets, but Eau Rose will be my next Diptyque for sure! Hoping you receive it this Valentine's Day 💖 I'm thinking I may go with Violet Mallow by Solstice Scents for Valentine's Day...either that or my old faithful, Kilian Princess.
Oh which ones are you going to sample next?! Yes Eau Rose is so beautiful - it's been sitting on my wishlist for more than a year. I asked for others for Christmas too because they were more seasonal fragrances I wanted to enjoy this winter! I've never heard of Violet Mallow but I just looked it up and think I would really jive with it. Seems like bottles and decants are hard to find though? Kilian Princess is a tried and true for sure! I seem to prefer it in the warmer months though.
@@PerfumeonthePorch I'm hoping to try Atomic Rose and Lucky Candy! Solstice Scents is an indie perfumer out of Florida so major retailers/resellers won't have it. I got a sample originally and then recently upgraded to a full bottle of the EDP during a sale they had over the holidays. I think they are shifting their seasonal restock model to always having everything in stock, so hopefully it will be easier in the future :)
I just ordered a decant of Beyond Romance this week after hearing you talk about that one in other videos. I love raspberry notes and rose also so I'm super excited to try it out. I'm trying to be better about not blind buying full size bottles this year. Part of my be more financially responsible resolution... That's not going so great already 😂
Excellent resolution! I'm on a no-buy... and already have sent my husband out on an errand to get a travel size for me so I could cheat and pretend like I didn't break the no-buy. 😅 Let me know what you think about Beyond Romance please! I love raspberry and rose too, but there are many I've tried with that note structure and scent profile that have not worked out for me (For Your Love by Mizensir is the first that immediately comes to mind). Thankfully they were all just samples! It's fun to have a collection of samples to reference and chime in on the conversation even if we would never order a bottle.
Hey girl! Thanks for posting! Love your choices. I have beyond Romance, Vera Wang Princess and Very Good Girl. Love. Them them all… I actually have always loved the Carolina Herrera heel! I love collecting those bottles. The pink blush one is a great Valentines Day one too. The original is my favorite. I also have a sister-in-law that I think is the coolest. I always copy her makeup and mascara that she uses and stuff. I think I’m more of the perfume girl though she doesn’t really wear that much. She wears body sprays. She used to work at Nordstrom and the perfume section too, but she said she would wear more body sprays. Another great one that I’ve been enjoying is like Dolly Parton perfume with the butterfly on it. It’s the pink bottle. I think that one’s really nice and Viva La juicy couture gold when I first got the very good girl by Carolina Herrera I thought it was screechy, but you’re right is a lot like Delina and it’s grown on me. I like it now. I wish I had a husband to buy me perfume on Valentine’s Day. Laugh out loud mine just gives me candy and flowers, which I love too but I wouldn’t mind getting spoiled by him. Laugh out loud.❤
Hey Chris! Oh yes Good Girl Blush is excellent too! It's wonderful to have women in our lives who we admire and draw inspiration from, right? 💕 I still haven't smelled Dolly's fragrances but I have to, she's my hometown girl! Dolly can do no wrong. Aw candy and flowers are wonderful - we're so blessed to have ones in our lives to love and who love us. I'm not sure I'll get the perfume but I'm trying to make sure there is no question what perfume to get me if he does buy me one. 🤣
Hi 👋 Chelsea, Vera Wang Princess...I bought it about 3 months ago because I was missing my daughter (I used to spritz it on her after her bath time) she came home for the holidays and went into my perfume collection and begged me for it...she was like Mom i remember feeling so pretty like a Princess when you would let me wear it....❤...so I need to get a new one....I am going to try the Mac creme de nude sounds wonderful...
What a beautiful scent memory!! Thank you so much for sharing. I loved reading this story, and it made me a little emotional as I hope my daughter and children have comforting scent memories like you gave your daughter. Let me know what you think of Crème D'Nude!
Thank you so much!! I blow dry my hair out combing through with my fingers and section drying, and then use a 1.5" barrel (regular curling iron, not a wand). I can show my routine in my next vlog if there's interest.
Eau Rose is such a beautiful feminine elegant fragrance isn't it? The perfect valentine's day scent. Enjoy your date with your husband. I love The Lake House too 😂
Love you & your channel!!:) Going forward can you please rate your perfumes 1 out of 10 & talk about their lenghth of longevity that would be really helpful. Thank you & ❤ Happy Valentine's Day!:)
Hi! I sold my bottle of Romance Parfum last week… I liked it but I’m cutting down my collection of rose perfumes. I have too many. That said I’ll probably go for Musc Noir Rose, one of my Miss Dior, Gris Dior or Flowerbomb for Valentine’s Day. The bottle or the juice needs to be pink, right?! 😉 Orange Blossom is my new favorite note. I ordered Black Opium Glitter last night. Everything marshmallow will do right now for me. Have a great day Chelsea! 🩷
Hi Julie! All of those sound lovely for Valentine's Day! Yes I wholeheartedly it needs to be pink (or at least red). 😂 Orange blossom is so beautiful, especially combined with marshmallow. Have you tried D&G's Pour Femme? It's a beautiful orange blossom+marshmallow combo. Thanks for always stopping by and hanging out with me - have a beautiful week fragrance friend!
For me and Delina just did not work with my skin chemistry I smell like an old grandma when I wear those two fragrances I gave my mom Delena. I still have atomic Rose. I’m trying to love it, but I’m struggling.
Same! I feel like I smell like the old guest soaps in a great-grandmother's bathroom when I wear Delina. Specifically the exclusif. I don't like the rhubarb in the original.
@jenestes2099 oh girl declutter that Atomic Rose, don't force yourself to love a fragrance! Life is too short to wear perfume we don't enjoy. Either it works or it doesn't - hype or no hype. It's so helpful to know our skin chemistry. Have you tried softer rose profiles, like Melrose Place by Ouai or Chance Eau Tendre by Chanel?
I get so excited every time I see your videos come up on my feed!! I know you’re just getting started but let this stand as motivation to keep going ❤
Oh wow, this is such an encouragement!! Thank you so much for saying this. 💛
So glad to finally watch this video ❤ so much love from germany. I adore Atomic Rose

Hey friend!🙋🏻♀️🥰🥰🥰🥰 the sun shining in on your porch makes me so happy🥰🥰🥰
Thank you Jamie! I love when the sun shines through too.
Hi Chelsea 👋 So glad you're feeling better!! 🙏❤️ Lovely list for Valentine's Day 💕 ❤️ Best Wishes Fi xx ❤️🥝👋
Thank you so much Fiona!

Very good girl is sooooo good, I also didn’t like the bottle but I think the juice is so good in this 😍
Great to see you! I really enjoy your content!
Thank you so much for that encouragement, and for stopping by!
Yay just what I needed! Glad you’re feeling better.
Thank you so much!
Viva la juicy sucre is one of my favorites 🙌🏻🤓 and the bottle is so adorable.
It is CUTE cute.

I haven't tried the Beyond Romance perfume but I can say that the original Romance I love so much!!!
I really need to revisit the original Romance, especially as spring starts to approach!
I really want to try the Vera Wang, I own atomic rose , Delina and Delina Exclusif I love Rose in fragrances
Oh YES go to JC Penney or Walgreens and see if they have a tester out.
I love Burberry Elixir, I had Burberry her edp and couldn’t wear it I had to give it away 😢, wish I bought this one instead ❤
I have to be in a certain mood to enjoy the original Her. Grab Elixir on a sale!

I use to have the body butter of Vera wang princess and it smelled soooo good but can’t find it anywhere now.
Ooooh I bet it did smell amazing! I've not seen the lotion but I do see the body mist from time to time.

Skin chemistry is so interesting! I used to LOATHE rose fragrances before I had kids - my skin chemistry changed so much postpartum!
