Girrrrrlllll... Where... Have... I...Been?!?! I smelled Givenchy Irresistible (the original and apparently "the new one" that recently came out), and I am HOOKED!!
I went in, and a woman associate asked me what I was looking for. I explained to her the profile I was looking for, and she gave me a few options.
Well.... The male (security guard/loss prevention) overheard me, and he respectfully pulled out ONE scent and sat it on the counter (WITH CONFIDENCE). I smelled it and fell in LOVE! THEN, he showed me the newest one. I almost fell out... He outdone himself with this one!
And if a guy suggests it, I say , YES😂✨️
Givenchy is a very consistent house. Glad you found it.
One of my fave perfumes is L’Interdit Givenchy! I was in Macy’s spraying and sniffing. Lol. I sprayed Irresistible Rose Velvet and immediately fell in love. There is something modern about the rose scent. One my skin it was creamy and bits of powder, which I love. It makes me want to sip rose in a pink dress and live the soft life!
Yessss Givenchy Irresponsible Rose Velvet! It is giving soft life!!!!
I smelt the Givenchy Rose Velvet today while waiting in the pharmacy and it really is divine! I liked it instantly, thinking I’ll get a bottle
Yes it is so pretty! Glad it made your pharmacy wait better.
I really loved the rose velvet(Givenchy). Great video, Santa Maria!
Yes! Glad you could check it out as well.
Thank you 🙏🏽 you came through !!!! I really wanted your opinion on fame appreciate you ❤
You are so welcome!
I love how you talk. Such calming voice :) I am binge watching your videos while being on maternity leave and they are all great. Greetings from Austria ,)
hahah thank you! Oh cool! Austria! Hope you and baby are doing well.
Your description of Good Girl Blush sounds exactly like I expected. Gonna test that one out!
The bottle actually matches the juice inside. I have to give credit to them for this. Yes, get your nose on it.
Sissssss! I have officially added you to my Love List. It wouldn’t matter if you were talking about astrology or the weather……I’d watch your content. Your reviews are the best. I trust your opinion on fragrance but more importantly I love your personality. Then there is the lip colors and the hair ❤❤❤❤❤
Awwww Thank you! 😊 Hahahah these topics are hilarious. I am just being me and sharing my love for fragrance and make up. I appreciate your support.
Hiiii Santa! 💖 I sniffed Good Girl Blush earlier this week and may pick it up. That bottle is PRECIOUS. Soooo pretty. Regarding La Belle, I would have said the same EXCEPT... one day I wore it to a brunch. Hours and hours later everyone remarked how good I smelled. I was in shock! Like... "me?!"
Hey Veronica! Good Girl Blush is cute so I get it. Now see, you got me rethinking labelle. Ill just continue to play in it whenever I go to the mall.
I love taking time to go smelling fragrances!
Isn't it so much fun and also relaxing?!
@@TheSantaMaria1 yes it is!
Right on the rosé velvet. Such a pretty scent. Definitely my next purchase since Macy’s is having their sale!
Yesssss see you understand!
Lawd you, Sherida, and Denise got my list growing lol. About to go into a sniffing frenzy. Got my kayali yum pistachio and it's okay on its own, but my.goodness when you layer it with EJA what masterpiece! My partner liked it but when I layered it he was like now we talking. Santa, I'm patiently waiting for one of those good girls to sneak her way into your collection 😂
Hahahah I love those ladies too! Told you that yum and EJA combo was the one! hahahahah blasphemy on those good girls!!!😂😂😂
Wait, what’s EJA?
@@RayLaw89 kayali eden juicy apple
Love the burberry
Yes!
I’m really wanting Dylan purple and Irresistible rose velvet. The Good Girl Blush smelled awesome and is possibly on my list because it seemed like an easy wear.
Thanks for sharing your interests.
I'll be stopping by Macy's tomorrow to try out the Givenchy Irresistible. I'm happy Macy's is having a sale🎉❤🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 I smelled Burberry Her, it had a plastic smell somewhat. I need to revisit it again. I have a full body of Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle Eau de Parfum. I really enjoy it!
Yes this is the time to explore while there is a sale. Glad la belle works for you.
J’adore Deau is AMAZING!!!!
Ive discussed it on the channel before. It was more of a soft bedtime scent to me.
Hi beautiful!!! You look great!
I love La Belle! However, I highly recommend the le parfum because the Vanilla is really pretty in it!
I will have to smell the le parfum version! Thanks for the kind words.
Totally agree with the rosé irresistible. I quite literally smelled it for like 10 seconds and immediately got the biggest bottle. Hoping to try this l’interdit rogue next!
See you understand! It's soooo pretty and romantic. Love L'interdit Rouge. I have a dedicated review on that fragrance on my channel as well.
@@TheSantaMaria1 is the rouge more of a winter perfume?
😮 the Fame bottle!
It's alot!
Here in New Zealand we wait FOREVER to get the new releases! I’m like that little kid standing outside a candy store whose not allowed inside watching new release perfume reviews on RUclips! Irresistible Velvet Rose is on my radar too, as well as Burberry Her Elixir. It must be the pink bottles! This week I’m thinking of getting Mancera Rose Vanille but it’s a hefty price in NZ. I think its in the $300 range - but we’re coming into winter so it’s sounding appealing.
Greetings to New Zealand! The pink bottles are so cute. Mancera Roses Vanille is a good one for cold weather.
I picked up Good Girl Blush and Versace Dylan Purple for spring. Love them both! I need to get my nose on Irresistible Rose Velvet. I agree L'interdit Rouge is the best one. I have it and the EDP. I discovered EDP 1st 😅 lol!
Nice haul! Yesss rouge! Hahaha you did it the intended order. Yes smell that irresistible rose velvet !
I have irresistible the original and I like it, so now I need to try the Rose one
Oh yes! Would love your thoughts on the rose velvet.
I loved good girl blush.
That's good to hear.
I just smelled Givenchy Rose Velvet last week. You are corrext this is a sweet, creamy love scent. I was shocked.
Yessss!
You look so good in those glasses!
Thank you
You had me sold at PEPPERCORN on that Givenchy! 😂One of my favorites from years ago had summa-dat!
hahaha check it out!
Hey Santa! La belle La No! Y'all have been keeping the jokes coming😂😂😂
Girl, that fragrance has been in my collection for about 2 years, and the dent isn't denting. I use it for layering, and it works just as good as vanilla 28 . Jimmy choo the og is what I layer it with the most. But I still don't gravitate towards it much.
I was so sad about La Belle! Hahaha you not really feeling it anymore either I see.
@@TheSantaMaria1 no, I never really did. I think I just kept it for layering
Let me say this I’m a elf lol just going through all your videos I actually wear Blush with yellow dream the compliments come in every time.
Thank you for being an elf . Thanks for sharing your combination.
I swear every lip color you wear is so pretty on you
Thank you! I love lip products and they are fun to play in.
Received Jimmy Choo, I Want CHOO yesterday!! luved!
That's great! Thanks for sharing.
I do agree with you on La belle…
It wasn’t a love at first sniff for me…when I first smelled it,it turned sour on me and I was like NOPE…but when I revisited it ,I was pleasantly surprised…Now I love it so much I even purchased the Le parfum…
I have both of them and I love them…you should try the le parfum,it’s sexier and deeper…
That's interesting that it La Belle worked after all. Thanks for the suggestion
love this video we also have really strange weather but with a warm touch to it. guess what i tried the new kayali in the mall last night and loved it. yes the full bottle smells so good on my skin maybe it is warmer temperatures that made it shine because last week it was awful in the cold 🙈 sorry la belle doesnt work on you its pretty but i am trying to not purchase designers atm. hope you are well
Thanks! Glad you were able to test the new Kayali Yum while in the mall.
I can't wait for your Very Good Girl by CH review! Many say it is very close to Delina. Please set the record straight LOL
Givenchy Irresistible Rose Velvet is the superior pink bottle fragrance in this video lol. Good Girl Blush is just ok. Nothing compares to Delina 😂😂
Got GG blush end of August for my bd.....this thing sneaks up on you and LASTSSS. I get 8+ hours on skin and more on clothes...it surprised me how long it lasts....I get tones of compliments on this one from both women and men ...it's very feminine and girly. It's spring and summer daytime imo...I wear it to the office which maybe I shouldn't bc it does project and last on me, but it's nice and all my coworkers seem to love it.
I recently smelt Ex Nihilo Fleur Narcotique and instantly fell in love with both the EDP and extrait but think I the extrait just has the extra edge and I neeeed 😅
I want to get my nose on Fleur Narcotique too! Can't wait too get to a saks!
Yep, Labelle turns on me too so I used it for a room spray for a while, then I gifted it to a friend. I picked up a 30 ml of Blush - the pink heel is nice. Surprisingly she last on me a good 6 hours, that's all I ask for. Versace Dylan Purple is my fave new release. Btw, I received Kayali Yum Pistachio today and it's pretty, very happy.
Fragrances I don’t care for I use as a room spray or car spray
Man that labelle made me sad. I was actually about to buy it but im glad I tested it again. The good girl blush is nice! Yay Kayali Yum!
Lovely content 👌
Thank you so much!
You described Burberry and good girl blush perfectly. 😂
Thank you
I have the travel size of Good Girl Blush. It’s a roll on. She lasted all day on me. :)
That's great to hear!
Oh, the Velvet Rose Irresistible! Have not tried it, but adore the original. Will I like the Velvet? I also love both OG L’Interdit, Rouge and Intense! Such beautiful line! I can suggest to you the Eaudemoiselle by Givenchy if you have not tried it! A looong lasting fresh, but different green-ish rose with ambrette and ylang-ylang. Gorgeous.
Thanks for sharing
Sis…this is the second time I’ve tested a fragrance and said “I wonder if Santa mentioned this in a video” and bam, there you are! Lol I just sprayed Good Girl Blush on my hand about an hour ago. It’s pretty and girly but it still has that umph that the original Good Girl has. Do I NEED it? No. Am I going to get it? More than likely lol
hahahah I try to get my nose on new releases/hyped fragrances so I can share my own thoughts with the elves. Hahahah I love your honesty about good girl blush.
I liked CH Blush and the shoe is puuurdy but all Good Girls turn sour on my skin. I also really like Fame, it's a great fruity floral office friendly scent imo, and I fortunately get 🥭 all the way through the dry down with jasmine/incense. BUT I love Miu Miu Fleur de Lait 🥭 even more or layered! Been enjoying my bottle of Yum SO much, it could be a signature summer scent but my bottle is almost gone, I get hardly any projection/longevity. I can't believe it's an intense. Givenchy wasn't for me. I love my gourmands 🎉 Enjoyed hearing about all of these 💕
Im jealous of your experience with Fame. I want to smell that Miu Miu scent! Yes for Yum...it's a happy scent for spring. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
It’s the same in the UK raining cold one day, sun shining and blue sky’s the next day.
So weird all around!
Now, what I haven't been checking for is the house of Oreintica . I came across Arte Bellissimo Exotic, and it was love at first sniff. I thought I was getting bored with coconut fragrances. This one is not the beachy suntan lotion vibes fragrance. It's a smooth, creamy coconut with a sexy spicy vanilla dry down. Omg!
Thanks for sharing!
Hi yes the good girl blush smells good but smell like bubblegum but in a good way and the pack is good but love the mango but when i it dry down it’s basic I smelled the rose velvet and yes sis it does smells good on my skin I bought a big one ❤❤❤❤
Yesssss see you understand what I mean about this Rose Velvet!
The Fame bottle looks like an 🦉
OMG I can't unsee it now! 😂😂😂😂😂
An alien owl 🦉 😂😂😂
I got Blush by Carolina Herrera so good
She is cute!
I feel the same way about Labelle
Glad to know that I am not alone.
My last caught me by surprise fragrance was the new kendo absolute and I liked it so much I bought it during the Macy’s sale… it was something different in my collection and I’d really like you to check it out if you haven’t and give your thoughts 😊
I need to check that one out. I did not know about so thanks for sharing the info!
I bought the blush
Thanks for sharing.
I just recently got good girl blush and Fame... I get compliments on Givenchy but everyone body chemistry different the men paco rabanne exiler or men fragrance is good
I smelled the rose Givenchy at Ulta the other day, I wasn't a fan. Didn't like what it turned into after about 20 to 30 min. But I have both L'interdit and love them both ❤
Glad you tested it out. L'interdit is a solid line.
Will you please share the details about your glasses?! I am fellow spectacle wearer, and I am always looking for my next pair of glasses!🤓
They are by warby parker. Ive linked them in previous videos :-)
Have you tried any fragrances from Chris Collins? Thinking about ordering the discovery set
I have not but I plan to when on some future trips.
What a coincidence. I also went to Ulta yesterday and also loved Irresistible Velvet Rose. Out of everything I smelled, I chose to spray that one on skin before I left. Was so good for an hour, then changed after that to maybe a sour black currant? Was so sad. It was so good in the beginning. I agree though: A romantic movie, spring scent. Glad it works for you!!!
Black currant is in the Rose velvet lol. Sorry it changed in a bad way on you. It's so romantic. I will continue to play in it. Thanks for sharing your experience.
The irresistible rose’s did me dirty! The dry down turned to hot breathe on me….. the opening was absolutely beautiful!! Sucks right!!
Awww man! Sorry that happened to you.
I only have a handful designers in my collection: La Belle & the parfum, Hypnotic Poison, Spicebomb Extreme, and Flowerbomb. I do want to add L'Interdit Rouge. I am looking for some cheap niche perfumes from Comptoir Sud Pacifique, especially Vanille Café, Vanille Abricot, Amour de Cacao. They are around €80 .
Thanks for sharing your designer collection. I have a sample from the Comptoir Sud Pacique. I need to go and find it. Thanks for the reminder.
@@TheSantaMaria1 Thanks for your reply, Santa. Btw, do you reminder me saying I was gonna return New York Nights? I ended up keeping it. It did a 180 on me in a matter of days, and although the performance is not the best, the scent is totally worth it. But I did return Greenwich Village which was too much of a detergent/soapy smelling perfume. I have other Bonds on my radar and I am watching your reviews on them.
@@IrieAllDay88 I do remember your story about Bond NYN. Glad you gave it some time and it worked out. Poor Greenwich Village!
The Good Girl Blush Elixir lasts longer, check it out. I'm like you Very Good Girl has been my favorite but i think I'm going to get GG Bkush Elixir. Great reviews
I smelled the elixir version and I hated it.
@TheSantaMaria1 maybe I should spray it on my skin instead of paper because I tend to like all of your selections. Thx
I kept seeing RUclipsrs rave about La Belle Le Parfum, and they made it sound so dark, gothic, sensual, and fruity gourmand...so of course me being me went ahead and blind bought it. Yeah agree...for me it came off sour, giving me a sour/fruity incensey vibe. On Fragrantica someone said they disliked it at 1st but let it sit for a few weeks, then went back and now love it. So I'm letting it sit...but so far I am def not impressed.
I also agree about Fame. I bought that one, but returned it. I have Mango Skin, Rialto from Gritti, and a dupe of Cruz del Sur II from Xeroff, which all are nice, complex mango fragrances. Fame as you mentioned, opens with mango, but quickly became a generic floral scent. It is nice....like "I need to run up to the store" so grabs this generic fragrance to smell decent, but def not on a sexy, complex level.
I'm glad you brought up Burberry Her Elixir because I actually wore it layered with other scents today...a perfect scent going into Spring for sure :)
La Belle La Parfum was raved about as you said! Sorry your blind buy did not work out. Fame was so disappointing after a few minutes. Burberry Her Elixir is fun and creamy. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Good review.
Whats the name of the fragrance in the pink high heels bottle
It's stated in the video and it's in the description box
And for that exact reason I don’t have any CH fragrances. I don’t like the bottle. No stilettos on my feet or in my collection. 😅 SOTD Marc Jacobs Perfect Intense
hahahah we can't do the bottle. Oooo MJ Perfect Intense...I need to pull her back out.
Also really loving Irresistible Rose Velvet. That iris really does it for me! The original Irresistible and Irresistible Eau Fraiche are.... resistible. They smell low quality to me compared to Rose Velvet.
Yes that iris note makes it classically powdery. We feel the same about the original irresistible lol. Thanks for sharing.
I can’t get past the shoe bottles. I just can’t. Givenchy Irresistible Rose Velvet is definitely giving pretty girl vibes. I plan to buy a bottle.
same I cant do the shoe. Yes Givenchy irresistible rose velvet!
Hi, givenchy velvet Rose is gone on paper after 5 minute.Smell good, but its very light.
Sorry to hear that for you!
You habe to buy Granada salvia from Guerlains Aqua Allegoria Line ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing
Hey Santa, let's see what made the list
Hi there!
I like Fame's opening but it smells like Lady Million to me in the dry down, so I kept my little minnie. I am not a fan of Burburry at all nor of the Good Girls. I did give Blush a smell and it was not enough to make me purchase. JPG has never moved me either except my ex wore Man in the blue bottle (i liked it). Givenchy is a house my mother wore- I finally found 1 in the past that I liked- a Flanker of the one Alicia Keys was the face of , oh Dahlia- but not the original. I never liked Irresistible but I did purchase Rose Velvet and placed her amongst the blush items on my nightstand. I don't love her, but I love the essence of the scent. I will wear it. I felt it reminded me of another scent by Ralph Lauren that I like alot even though I rarely wear it- looked it up and they were created by the same perfumer.
Thank for for this detailed review of the fragrances. Love when a perfumer discover happens.
La Belle is pretty but I don’t know why I never picked it up.
Just play in it when you go to Ulta.
Yeah the labelle one didn’t do well in my skin either. It turns rather weird on me, kinda sour stanky…..I keep going back to it and trying it but each time, it’s like nope, just not for me
Yeah so disappointed. Sadly, we have to let it go and move on.
Sooo! The irresistable is better Than Montblanc signature? Cause i loooooove MB
Sorry, Im Not doing a comparison on those fragrances in this video.
I don’t think so. irresistible smells good on paper, on my skin…not so much. Love MB signature tho, so much!
@@Pamela-zi6gk Im so dissapointed! Its has Nothing That reminds of the signature, its not Even fresh 😅 well! I blindbought it - Thats always a risk🤣
Fame was a oh hell no, for me at first sniff😂
hahahahaha It's such a disappointment.
Issa no for me for La Belle 😬
Same! See you get it!
💞💞💞💞💞💞
Thanks sis!
CH Good Girl Blush does not last at all :(
Thanks for reporting back on it.
I think I’ve grown out of love with La Belle. Too sweet and a tad cloying for me now.
I can see that. You have some amazing fragrances in your collection!
Fame is too similar to Alien Goddess.
I did not get that correlation, but thanks for sharing!
I loveeeeee Fame! 🥲 the initial scent was the same for me, but the dry down is what I actually enjoyed most. It’s almost like a fruit milkshake drydown on my skin, so maybe the body chemistry didn’t sit well with the scent for you. I do also encourage everyone to smell it on themselves before buying!
Im glad Fame worked for you! Yes this is one that you need to try on skin first before buying.
Ppl are going craaaaaaazy for the robot! I Cant stand it🫣😊
hahahahah I saw the hype on social media too but yeah the juice inside is not amazing.
