Now that my daughter Sara is an MD (yay june 5 graduation!!! ) and starting her Neonatal Pediatrics Residence, I am making her a tray of perfumes for her new adult/doctor (omg my daughter is a DOCTOR) life that she can use for the hospital so I am taking all sorts of notes.
Great line up. I am going to get a sample of Rania J Musk. Also I think I saw Molton Brown on Saks???,??!! Give it a look.. I looked at the entire line whereever I was. Love much.
Definitely barely a skin scent. I can't decide if it's just so very soft or if I go anosmic to it considering the ambroxan. It's nice while I can smell it.
Funnily enough I find L'eau Papier (sample) to last quite well, especially considering it's an EDT and very little lasts on my skin. Thank you for mentioning Ceramic. I paused the video to order a sample so i can decide between that and L'eau Papier. Love the pink lips; such a pretty colour 💖
Veronica! You look gorgeous!! 🤩🤩🤩 you always do, but there is something extra specially stunning about you today, your hair, the make up, wow! Here with my toast and coffee! ☕️ xo
This is the one category that’s still lacking from my collection🤔🤔. You have spoken about Ode de Dullness and I didn’t realise that I have a travel spray from Skins Cosmetics Fragrance Box🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. I would also include Nothing But Sea and Sky here cos for me it’s very quiet on my skin or is it me😂😂. Stay gorgeous 🥰🥰
Hello Veronica! I believe AM Ceramic is as amazing as you describe it, even samples are sold out. Now I want it even more. Andrea Maack has been killing it! 💜
😮caramel bats, sugar daddies, and sugar babies! Milk duds, and snowcaps. Of course for FREE candy my great grandparents always had those pastel buttercream mints! Loved the texture of those! I never see those for sale anywhere tho? Is this something you can only access when you pass a certain age/level up??!
My grandfather used to give Michael and I a quarter and he spend most of his on a little Debbie cake and only have five cents for candy. I got all candy! Those were the days
L'Eau Papier has a sesame note that, to my nose is warm and savory. The first time I sampled it, it reminded me of a cracker or bread. It has the warm quality of a savory comfort food, if that makes any sense at all 😅 . Iris Shot is similar to it with the warm almond note. I got Iris Shot not too long ago and that's what I noticed about it more: how it reminded me of that warm note in L'Eau Papier
So basically this whole video is on my wish list 😂I’ve been wanting Creame De Cuir for years but I always end up buying something else. I watched the inspiration behind 312 on the Fragrance Guy channel and it sounds amazing
Living over a candy store as a kid would have been my dream. We lived a block away from a bodega and I recall going there with my friends every day and buying our favorite gum and candy 🍭 🍬
312 smells almost exactly like Beach Walk to me! And my husband thought I was trying to trick him when I got him to smell these 2 scents, (312 one one hand, Beach Walk on the other) he was sure they were the same one! BW is saltier to me tho.. 😊
I have been lusting over THEE perfect your skin but better AKA musky ethereal type of scents. BDK 312 sounds right up my alley but as a fragrance lover with an extensive (and probably impressive) collection, I’m trying to indulge less and use more. Great suggestions!
Another 13 is so good and big compliment getter!! Musc Moschus is phenomenal too. If you are interested in the Rania J house they have a wonderful amber called Ambre Loup. If you like strong musky "dark" Ambers then give it a sniff.
I just tried a DIE FOR PERFUME, It is called Sospiro Maraschino :) One of my new favorites of all time, just though I would share. Only for dreamy desert lovers.
To me it has a peppery smell at first, maybe it’s the sesame? It also smells comforting cozy and « creamy airy ». The steam of white rice, and a musk like not a perfume smells. (Now not a perfume smells bad to me, but for a while it was amazing!)
as a kid we had a man that turnt the front part of his house into a store i will never forget Mr. Paradise penny candy for days, when i went to college and came home he had cancer but beat it, 2yrs later i came back the neighborhood an he passed away i was so emotionally and i cried so hard, he was the sweetest person you ever meet, his kids took over but it was never the same.
Oh Theresa! 😞😞😞 I teared up just reading this comment. I have some similar figures from "around the way" that I feel that way about. I know exactly what you mean about getting emotional. 😩
I too remember penny candies although the choice was limited... most were 5 cents. Good memories. 😃 For work skin scents, I have worn small doses of Musk 12, Ode to Dulness and Missing Person. I'm not a fan of Glossier You... and a few Clean fragrances. I'm thinking of getting Not Your Baby because it's gentle and close to the skin as well. Also bought 3 mild all natural perfume oils from some small local brand that stay close to skin. 😊
Yes, we had penny, nickel, dime, and quarter candies. We also carried half dollars in those days and BOY! That was candy bonanza! 🤣 Perfume oils are a great choice for more laid back fragrance days. 💖💖💖
Hey Veronica. This one of my favorite categories of fragrances and I’m definitely looking to expand my collection. You loved above the candy store in the 80’s. OMG!! 25 cents could do a lot of damage back then
Yes, girl! We LOVED going downstairs to the candy store with our coins and loading up on all the little penny and nickel candies. When we were fancy, we got dime and whole quarter candy too! 🤣🤣🤣
Hi beautiful Veronica ❤ I tell you the older I become I’ve realized that for everyday wear these are the types of fragrances I reach for, l’Eaur papier has been on my radar ( I don’t own any Diptique!) lately I’ve been reaching for Surge Lutens Dent De Lait 😉
Hiii Sunny! 🥰 Yes, this portion of the collection is growing recently and I have no regrets! I'm sure you have some beautiful ones in this category. 🙏🙏🙏
I’m viewing this on 1/6/25. I so happy you popped up on my RUclips feed, during the Xmas holidays Re: Dyp’s “Papier”. I layered with the body wash and LeLabo Another 13. This will leave”YOU” 😅 a room several hours later(of course I had to overspray “Papier” I have other possibility successful layering combos
Oh my goodness, 173, the way that you described it reminds me of a candy necklace. I used to love candy necklaces. My sister wears lauren. I think it kind of smells like a candy necklace. It brings back so many great memories of na childhood. Running around barefoot in the summertime with my sister eating candy necklaces.
My absolute favorite types of perfume. My top 5 clean musks are Le labo Another 13, Initio musk therapy, Byredo Mohave ghost, fleur narcotique and Rania J musc moschus. Really curious about that Dyptique l'eau papier, Ella K Musk K and Parisian musk. Thanks for sharing beautiful ❤ Side note, Misenzir's tres chere is my current most beloved perfume, gets me tonnes of compliments 😊
Hi Veronica! 👋 I watched this when you originally posted and am watching it again as getting ideas for perfumes to wear whilst travelling on planes ✈️ I'm going to chose a scent for when I go on my long haul flights overseas next year, and this helps a lot, Thank You!! 🫂❤️✨️🙃🥝👋
I absolutely love your videos and recommendations! I have 6 of the mentioned scents and you have such a beautiful way of describing them ❤. Thank you for your videos!!
Oh my gosh, Veronica! I had to totally pushed BDK Creme DE Cuir to the side because, for some reason, it was so overpowering to me...BUT now that you have shared to spray lightly, I will give it another chance. The last time I wore it I had to layer it with something else to tone it down a bit. However, I must say I really WANT to love it. My journey is just so slow. Hopefully, this will do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion
This is soooo my style of fragrance!! ..at least ONE of my fragrance styles! I'm a complicated woman Lol 😅😅 I'll definitely be adding some of these to my sample wishlist!!
Yes! Penny candy!! I grew up in a country rural town in Ohio and i walked to the newspaper stand and they had penny candy. Grape swedish fish was my favorite.
LOL My aunt owned a candy store. Those tipped glass containers full of loose candies like a rainbow. 2 Bazooka's for a penny. Pixie Stix a foot long. Bonomo taffy. Cinnamon buttons, ow! Wax bottles with sugar syrup in them. It was heaven.
15 cents for a candy necklace, and the rest to 1 cent chocolate. We received a dollar from my grandmother and walked to the “penny candy store” then to the old fashioned fountain for a cherry coke for 50 cents. Those were good days ❤ My skin scent today is Le Point G by Veronique Gabai - not a soft scent, but skin-like with leather. Love this one!
Excellent job on this video !!! It's not easy to convey the subtle differences and nuances of skin scents. My favorite category. So crazy how different our experiences are when these frags are on our personal skin. Ode To Dullness is so fleeting on me. Yet, L'eau Papier clings to me for hours, and comes across like orris and thick warm rice, almost lactonic. I WISH I got the woody / paper 'thing' on my skin. I'm jealous !!
Love this list, Veronica! I was a little nervous about the notes of 312 Saint Honoré, but after burning through a sample I went ahead and ordered a FB which should arrive on Tues, yay! Spicy notes are really prominent on my skin, so the red pepper lasts through the whole wear on me. For me it's a lightly spicy musk with a bright orange blossom opening. So beautiful and easy to wear.
So ironic I clicked on this video. I have recently become addicted to the smell of L’eau Papier. I got Musk #3 from BBW and had to find if it was duping something. That lead me to L’eau Papier. Haven’t gotten the original yet only the oil version from Oil Perfumery. I am glad I saw your review of it. Now, I’m still gonna buy it…lol. But I will slow my roll u til I can find it for a good discount.
I like Skin & Vanilla from Clean, and La Mia Perla as skin scents. The first is fresh and slightly sweet. The second is more comforting with vanilla and a suede note.
You look gorgeous, Veronica!! Normally, I love bombastically loud fragrances but I've found a "second skin" like scent I'm loving in Spring! Its Olympéa Solar. At first, I thought it was too soft but I've come to appreciate it for what it is and surprisingly, I've gotten a ton of compliments. 💗🤟🏻
Nice list, Veronica. Love L'eau Papier! I don't get freshly printed paper, though. Jus Box's Cheeky Smile sounds very interesting. Currently, I am enthralled with Carioca Heart from that line. Which is the exact opposite of a quiet, work friendly fragrance. Lol.😂 But that mango is sooo yum. For work, I wear Tuttotondo's Riso EDT, which is fantastic for the Spring. The notes include citrus and rice. It's lovely, quiet but noticeable and only 42 €...
I couldn’t smell another 13 the first 5 times I tested it in stores. I decided to blind buy and test at home and I was blown away. It became my signature scent for about a month. It’s one of my top 5 fragrances at the moment. A perfume that smells very similar is Bond No 9 Governors Island which is very underrated. It’s smells like another 13 with incense and woods. If you can smell that then you have an idea of what another 13 smells like.
Good morning Veronica!!😘 Penny Candy! My favorites were Fireballs, paper strips with Candy Dots on them, Wax Lips and fingernails, so many more! They were in big glass jars at the candy store. So much fun 😂 I haven’t tried many skin scents. I remember when you did the video with Bryson and he couldn’t smell Another 13 either!😂 Would love to see him on your channel again. ❤ I was going to buy a travel spray of L’eau Papier on Mercari, but it sold. Speaking of Mercari….have you seen the fees that have been added to buyers????There’s a mystery ‘Service’ fee that increases proportionately to the price of the item you’re buying….and a processing fee to take my money!😢Plus tax and shipping! I’m not amused😬 Some of these fragrances sound lovely! I’ll think I’ll try one. Not sure which one. 😁 I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Always fun hanging out with you!❤️🥰😘
The paper strips with the candy dots! Oh, the memories! 🥰🥰🥰 I am going to try to wrangle Bryson back on the channel sometime soon. He's a hoot! Mercari's new fee structure is just... perplexing. What were they THINKING? Disappointing. I lowered all my prices to account for the changes, but I suspect Mercari sales will be down for everyone with these changes. Oh well. Thanks for watching, my friend! 💖🥰💖🥰
Molecules 01 surprised me. I thought I got influenced into getting something that doesn't smell like anything, but then I got complimented on it. I guess it's a fragrance that I'm anosmic to but projects to others. I call it my "giving and selfless" offering.
I have tested Lineage and own 312. To me, Lineage is much more marine. 312 is closer to L’Papier to me. L’Papier puts the rice forward and 312 moves light florals forward
I cannot smell Another 13, Cheeky Smile, or Essentric Molecules but L’eau Papier is fairly strong for me. Veronica: have you tried Diptyque Olene - I think you will like that one. It is like jasmine tea.
My SOTD is one of my favorite skin scents, plus a touch of yummy ... M. Micallef Royal Muska, older version, hoping it hasn't been changed. Can't imagine you wouldn't love it. Etat Libre d'Orange, You Or Someone Like You is one skin musk scent I've just discovered, had a sample and I'm buying it! Was an immediate love. I'd also recommend Apothia If (Los Angeles based store, they have sample sets.) Sage by Sage Machado is a *gorgeous* green musk, Perfect Veil by Sarah Horowitz, both are at Luckyscent and they're affordable. This has always been my favorite category of scents as Coty Wild Musk Oil was one sexy thing that started my frag journey. (could go on & on but it's 1:30 am. had to watch this video! :D OK, Cheeky Smile has just shot up to my "Must Have" list. 312 smells herbal? ... like the OG Herbal Essence? A n d that's another JHAG that I want. Just bought Musc Invisible, haven't even opened it yet. (I'm a Barefoot Dreams girl, too. Have two of the blankets. ahhh. so squishy soft. night night now. loved the video, *always* love hearing about the scents of which you speak.) :)
Hiiii! You are so sweet to watch late at night! Thank you! 💖 Thank you also for these lovely recommendations! So many great fragrances to try. 🥰🥰🥰 I wouldn't say 312 Saint Honoré smells like OG Herbal Essences. More like spa style shampoos that have herbal touches. Hope that helps! And YESSS to all Barefoot Dreams products! Woohoo! Amazing stuff. I have robe on RIGHT NOW! 😆😆😆
I’ve been testing samples and have run across a few skin scents. Jhag sunny side up Hermetica peonypop Floraiku I am coming home. And today I’m trying memo winter palace. And then there is my old friend aerin amber musk. Some of these are pricey though, but they are all very interesting lovely close to skin. Very inoffensive
Really lovely vid Veronica 🩷💜. I originally purchased Not a Perfume and couldn’t smell a darned thing on my skin… a few months later, I use it as a stand alone skin scent, so fresh and clean on me ❤️🧡. I get visuals when you describe things Veronica and I can be in hysterics eg with L’Eau Papier….’ You need to be really, really, really, reaaaally close to smell it” my visual was of a fish tank with those hilarious sucker fish 😂😂. Thank you , love everything you do ❤️🩷🧡🥰🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺 Stani
Thank you so much, Stani! 💖🥰 I have fun filming these videos and I'm glad you enjoy them! I'm going to give Another 13 a second go. Maybe I'll pick up the magic this time. 🤷🏻♀️
I love Musc Moschus! I’ve gone through two samples, and really want a full bottle! I’m nose blind to Another 13 and Clean Reserve Skin, so I need to go more musky or powdery for skin scents. These days, it’s Nuee Bleue from Violet for me.
Good evening Veronica 😊. Loving the look, gorgeous. Oh Candy Store's take me waaay back😂. When life was filled with care free summers. Penny candy from the house down the street. Pickles stuff with chews, I wasn't a pickle stuff with peppermint. Okay now that I've gone down memory lane. Let me get into the video 😊😂.
You look incredible, Veronica! And I bet you smell incredible, too! You featured so many of my faves, like Musc Moschus, Ode to Dullness and Clean Skin. Love your comparison of BDK's 312 Saint Honore to Lineage. When I first sampled it I thought it smelled a lot like Another 13, though I seem to be the only one getting that. I'd love to see you review Diptyque Fleur de Peau - L'eau Papier is getting all the attention, but IMHO FdP is a much better skin scent, full of cottony musks that just smell so fresh and clean. A very unique scent I love is Etat Libre Orange's Ghost in the Shell, which smells like a milky musk with a slight ozonic quality - skin scent of a robot, perhaps? 😆And my fave musk/skin scent along with Rania J is Initio's Musk Therapy - I could bathe in that stuff!
Thank you kindly! 💖 Musk Therapy is delightful. I'm mentioning it in the upcoming musk video. Glad you enjoy some of these. I've seen great reviews for Fleur de Peau and I've tried Ghost in the Shell - quite nice! 💖💖💖
Thank you for this list of fragrances,need to try some of them 🙌I will add to this list white fire Tiziana Terenzi I start already second bottle it’s says a lot with my big perfume collection.
I am enjoying L’Eau Papier but I’m surprised you can’t smell it. I find it to be quite strong and I definitely get a hint of steamed jasmine rice. I have a travel spray of Cheeky Smile but I have yet to do a proper test drive. My favorite scents in this molecular category are JHAG Moscow Mule and Arizona Bloom. I like Another 13 but I don’t care to support Lauder’s ridiculous price gouging endeavors. 😂
Dyptique is a house I’m interested in. And, I like clean, fresh, green scents. I just haven’t bit the bullet on anything yet. I think all of their scents are basically second skin scents, no?
Great video Veronica. Many fragrances piqued my interest.I just got a sample of Creme de Cuir. Have smelled it yet. I do have Candy and it's good. L'Eua Papier has been going around and I will get my nose on it. Thank you for sharing ❤
Hey Veronica! I tried glossier you today and loved it and think this may belong in this category. I looove Hermes Santal Massoia! It has something horse like in the best way and I’ve gifted decants to my horse lover friends. I think it’s one of the best creamy wood scents ever. ❤
Now that my daughter Sara is an MD (yay june 5 graduation!!! ) and starting her Neonatal Pediatrics Residence, I am making her a tray of perfumes for her new adult/doctor (omg my daughter is a DOCTOR) life that she can use for the hospital so I am taking all sorts of notes.

Congratulations!
Another 13 is my go to when I don't know what else to wear.
I hope to try it again soon. 💖
@@VeronicaSaysI didn’t smell anything the first time. Now I find it SOOO strong, one spray is more than enough
@@oodoo79 😲😲😲 Well, that's hopeful! I'm definitely willing to try it again. So many people LOVVVVE it!
I love Another 13
Veronica ❤ i remember when candy was 5, 10 cents. Chico sticks, now or laters, peanut chews, the big pepperment balls, omg. The good ol days
Oh my God!! I miss Chico Sticks!!! Soooo delicious 😋
My favorite is Another 13. But I'm hoping to get Musc Moschus for Mother's Day. Thanks Veronica!
Hope you enjoy Musc Moschus! 💖
Another 13 is also my favorite!
Project runway, was one of my favorite shows
Yes! Tim Gunn's attitude is life goals. He's so cool.
I love amber vanilla from 7 virtues as a skin scent
Definitely barely a skin scent. I can't decide if it's just so very soft or if I go anosmic to it considering the ambroxan. It's nice while I can smell it.

Thank you, Fiona! Glad you're enjoying L'eau Papier and let me know your thoughts on Ceramic. 🥰
L’eau papier actually last longer then any of their EDP. Surprisingly to me. It last all day.
No one has mentioned it yet but it smells like the communion wafers taste like. Rice wafers.
Starting my morning with ya! You look amazing, Veronica!!! 😍
Thank you, doll! 🥰
Nothing like a good cup of Joe and Veronica! :)
Awww thank you kindly! 💖🥰🙏

AMBER SAFFRON by Clean Reserve is also a great skin scent, love it!
I used to own this one. Nice gentle skin scent. 👍👍👍

Hiiii Alexis! Yes, this weather is playing games with us 😂😂😂
Hello Veronica! I believe AM Ceramic is as amazing as you describe it, even samples are sold out. Now I want it even more. Andrea Maack has been killing it! 💜
They have samples at Scent Split! I recently checked when I couldn't find it on Lucky Scents.
Yes! There are some lovely fragrances in her lineup. 👍👍👍👍
Twistedlily.com and so-avant-garde.com should carry samples too (unless they are sold out).
Thank you Veronica! Will check again. 💜💜💜

It's a pretty cool fragrance! 🌟
Yessss I remember the penny candy 😂😂😂girl I use to go on Saturday afternoon so I would have a purse full of candy for Sunday morning church 😂😂😂😂

@@VeronicaSays oh wow that’s interesting. It’s amazing that they were able to capture that scent.
I’m definitely going to try Andrea Mack fragrances. You make them sound really interesting
Definitely try Pavilion if nothing else. I think you'll enjoy that one (along with others). 👍👍👍
Living over a candy store as a kid would have been my dream. We lived a block away from a bodega and I recall going there with my friends every day and buying our favorite gum and candy 🍭 🍬
Yes, girl! 🎉 Off my porch to the right was a little bodega and to the left was "the candy store." 🍬 Trouble all around! 😲
Might check out Rosie from by/ rosie jane. Sweet, clean, rosy nude musk that is so great anytime but I love sleeping in! 🤗🤗

Thanks for sharing! I'm curious to try it. 🥰💖
For me 4 to 6 sprays of l’eau papier is plenty to smell it well. It stays much better on clothes, but it lasts the full day and I get constant wafts.
Awesome! 💖💖💖 It just faded on me. Others could barely smell it on me either after about 4-6 hours.
To me it has a peppery smell at first, maybe it’s the sesame? It also smells comforting cozy and « creamy airy ». The steam of white rice, and a musk like not a perfume smells. (Now not a perfume smells bad to me, but for a while it was amazing!)
Yes, I've heard others mention the "rice" smell. I'll keep this in mind when I wear it next time.

My absolute favorite types of perfume. My top 5 clean musks are Le labo Another 13, Initio musk therapy, Byredo Mohave ghost, fleur narcotique and Rania J musc moschus.
Really curious about that Dyptique l'eau papier, Ella K Musk K and Parisian musk. Thanks for sharing beautiful ❤
Side note, Misenzir's tres chere is my current most beloved perfume, gets me tonnes of compliments 😊
Thank you for watching! I love this category too. Great list you shared! 🥰💖
Hi Veronica! 👋 I watched this when you originally posted and am watching it again as getting ideas for perfumes to wear whilst travelling on planes ✈️
I'm going to chose a scent for when I go on my long haul flights overseas next year, and this helps a lot, Thank You!! 🫂❤️✨️🙃🥝👋
You are so welcome! Hope you find the perfect scent for your travels! ✈️🥰✨ Thanks for watching again!
I absolutely love your videos and recommendations! I have 6 of the mentioned scents and you have such a beautiful way of describing them ❤. Thank you for your videos!!
Awww thank you so very much! 🥰💖🥰💖
Oh my gosh, Veronica! I had to totally pushed BDK Creme DE Cuir to the side because, for some reason, it was so overpowering to me...BUT now that you have shared to spray lightly, I will give it another chance. The last time I wore it I had to layer it with something else to tone it down a bit. However, I must say I really WANT to love it. My journey is just so slow. Hopefully, this will do the trick. Thanks for the suggestion
Hi Gloria! 💖 I'm a chronic oversprayer so I've learned this lesson the hard way after choking myself out so often. 😬😬😬
@@VeronicaSays Yesssss!! Lesson learned🤣
😮 giant everlasting gobstoppers!! took it out occasionally to see what color it was. That was a lot of candy time for the money!
Yes it was! 😆😆😆
PURE by Alfred Sung: try THIS!
So affordable and so nice, creamy, musky and a bit sandalwoody at the same time. And the bottle, too is beautiful 😍
I have tried several Alfred Sung fragrances. All are appealing!
MILK MUSK is amazing ❤
So good, right?!
This is soooo my style of fragrance!! ..at least ONE of my fragrance styles! I'm a complicated woman Lol 😅😅 I'll definitely be adding some of these to my sample wishlist!!
Well, in your defense, fragrance is a complicated thing! 😊 There's just soooo much to enjoy. 💖
@@VeronicaSays 😁🫶🏼🙌🏻
Thanks Veronica I do enjoy watching no matter what 4-6-2024❤
I'm so glad! Thank you, Marilyn! 💖🙏
Yes! Penny candy!! I grew up in a country rural town in Ohio and i walked to the newspaper stand and they had penny candy. Grape swedish fish was my favorite.
Awww love that memory! Thanks for sharing! 💖💖💖
LOL My aunt owned a candy store. Those tipped glass containers full of loose candies like a rainbow. 2 Bazooka's for a penny. Pixie Stix a foot long. Bonomo taffy. Cinnamon buttons, ow! Wax bottles with sugar syrup in them. It was heaven.
Oh yes! What joyful memories! So many fun candy choices! 💖💖💖
Papier gets me compliments and musc mochous is so pretty.
Thanks for sharing! 💖🥰
I can’t wait to try Musc Moschus! Great descriptions ! I do love a musk skin scent! 🥰
Thank you, Jackie! 💖 Hope you love Musc Moschus! It's a special fragrance. 🥰
15 cents for a candy necklace, and the rest to 1 cent chocolate. We received a dollar from my grandmother and walked to the “penny candy store” then to the old fashioned fountain for a cherry coke for 50 cents. Those were good days ❤ My skin scent today is Le Point G by Veronique Gabai - not a soft scent, but skin-like with leather. Love this one!
Cherry Coke for 50 cents! Awww the memories! 🥰💖 Le Point G is lovely. 👍👍👍
Excellent job on this video !!! It's not easy to convey the subtle differences and nuances of skin scents. My favorite category.
So crazy how different our experiences are when these frags are on our personal skin. Ode To Dullness is so fleeting on me. Yet, L'eau Papier clings to me for hours, and comes across like orris and thick warm rice, almost lactonic. I WISH I got the woody / paper 'thing' on my skin. I'm jealous !!
Thank you! 🥰💖 I love this category, too! I wish I got orris and thick rice from L'eau Papier! Maybe I will pick that up soon.
Wonderful! I love Skin - Clean Reserve.
It's a fabulous skin scent! 💖
You manage to say cliches without sounding cliche!! 😊
Thank you! Not an easy thing to achieve 😂
Love this list, Veronica! I was a little nervous about the notes of 312 Saint Honoré, but after burning through a sample I went ahead and ordered a FB which should arrive on Tues, yay! Spicy notes are really prominent on my skin, so the red pepper lasts through the whole wear on me. For me it's a lightly spicy musk with a bright orange blossom opening. So beautiful and easy to wear.
I'm glad you love it! Thanks for pointing out that pepper note. 👍👍👍
So ironic I clicked on this video. I have recently become addicted to the smell of L’eau Papier. I got Musk #3 from BBW and had to find if it was duping something. That lead me to L’eau Papier. Haven’t gotten the original yet only the oil version from Oil Perfumery. I am glad I saw your review of it. Now, I’m still gonna buy it…lol. But I will slow my roll u til I can find it for a good discount.
Hiii! 💖 Do you ever shop at Blue Mercury? They have a summer sale going on and I believe they carry L'eau Papier.
@@VeronicaSays never heard of it. But I will definitely check it out. Thanks
My mother loves Clear Reserve, she asked for it for Christmas....a year or two ago.
Wonderful! It's a great fragrance! 🥰
I used to love Project Runway!
I’m really loving Q by D&G right now, it’s like a musky, mildly aromatic, cherry limeade 😊❤
Yes, Q is quite lovely for this category. 👍👍👍
I like Skin & Vanilla from Clean, and La Mia Perla as skin scents. The first is fresh and slightly sweet. The second is more comforting with vanilla and a suede note.
Thank you for sharing these! 🥰 Vanilla and suede is always a good combo.
You look gorgeous, Veronica!!
Normally, I love bombastically loud fragrances but I've found a "second skin" like scent I'm loving in Spring! Its Olympéa Solar. At first, I thought it was too soft but I've come to appreciate it for what it is and surprisingly, I've gotten a ton of compliments. 💗🤟🏻
Thank you! 💖 I love it when fragrances pleasantly surprise us. 🥰
Veronica you're look is vibing with the video. Very pretty and soft with a little pink.😊
Thank you kindly! 🥰🥰🥰
Ohhh 312 Saint Honore is absolutely going on my list! I’ve been drawn to those mysterious aquatic scents like Lineage.
I hope you enjoy it! It definitely gave me faint vibes of Lineage. 💖
Nice list, Veronica. Love L'eau Papier! I don't get freshly printed paper, though. Jus Box's Cheeky Smile sounds very interesting. Currently, I am enthralled with Carioca Heart from that line. Which is the exact opposite of a quiet, work friendly fragrance. Lol.😂 But that mango is sooo yum. For work, I wear Tuttotondo's Riso EDT, which is fantastic for the Spring. The notes include citrus and rice. It's lovely, quiet but noticeable and only 42 €...
Thanks! I am very interested in Carioca Heart! 💖 Glad you love L'eau Papier. 👍👍👍
I couldn’t smell another 13 the first 5 times I tested it in stores. I decided to blind buy and test at home and I was blown away. It became my signature scent for about a month. It’s one of my top 5 fragrances at the moment. A perfume that smells very similar is Bond No 9 Governors Island which is very underrated. It’s smells like another 13 with incense and woods. If you can smell that then you have an idea of what another 13 smells like.
This is super helpful! I did purchase another decant of Another 13 so I'll be trying it again very soon. Thank you! 💖🥰
I have a sample of spring Fling, I love the freshness and citrusy feel on my skin. But it is so work-appropriate now.
You look beautiful, Veronica!
Thank you so much! 💖🥰 Glad you're enjoying Spring Fling. 👍👍👍
Crème de cuir is amazing!
I agree! A good one! 💖💖💖
Good morning Veronica!!😘
Penny Candy! My favorites were Fireballs, paper strips with Candy Dots on them, Wax Lips and fingernails, so many more! They were in big glass jars at the candy store. So much fun 😂
I haven’t tried many skin scents. I remember when you did the video with Bryson and he couldn’t smell Another 13 either!😂 Would love to see him on your channel again. ❤
I was going to buy a travel spray of L’eau Papier on Mercari, but it sold. Speaking of Mercari….have you seen the fees that have been added to buyers????There’s a mystery ‘Service’ fee that increases proportionately to the price of the item you’re buying….and a processing fee to take my money!😢Plus tax and shipping! I’m not amused😬
Some of these fragrances sound lovely! I’ll think I’ll try one. Not sure which one. 😁
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Always fun hanging out with you!❤️🥰😘
The paper strips with the candy dots! Oh, the memories! 🥰🥰🥰 I am going to try to wrangle Bryson back on the channel sometime soon. He's a hoot! Mercari's new fee structure is just... perplexing. What were they THINKING? Disappointing. I lowered all my prices to account for the changes, but I suspect Mercari sales will be down for everyone with these changes. Oh well. Thanks for watching, my friend! 💖🥰💖🥰
Molecules 01 surprised me. I thought I got influenced into getting something that doesn't smell like anything, but then I got complimented on it. I guess it's a fragrance that I'm anosmic to but projects to others. I call it my "giving and selfless" offering.
Giving and selfless! 🤣 That's BRILLIANT! 💖💖💖
You should try Room1015 Sonic Flower.
I have! It's lovely. Thank you for sharing the recommendation. 🥰
Another 13 is the best "your skin but better" fragrance. It's one of my most complimented fragrances. Cheeky smile by jusbox is a good one too
I tried Another 13 last night. I'll have to wear it out in public to see if I get the same reaction.
I have tested Lineage and own 312. To me, Lineage is much more marine. 312 is closer to L’Papier to me. L’Papier puts the rice forward and 312 moves light florals forward
Thanks for weighing in!
Massoia Addict ❤
I cannot smell Another 13, Cheeky Smile, or Essentric Molecules but L’eau Papier is fairly strong for me. Veronica: have you tried Diptyque Olene - I think you will like that one. It is like jasmine tea.
😲😲😲 No kidding? I have not tried that Dyptique. Maybe one day!
Veronica you are absolutely glowing today 🤩
Awww thank you, my friend! 💖💖💖
My SOTD is one of my favorite skin scents, plus a touch of yummy ...
M. Micallef Royal Muska, older version, hoping it hasn't been changed. Can't imagine you wouldn't love it.
Etat Libre d'Orange, You Or Someone Like You is one skin musk scent I've just discovered, had a sample and I'm buying it!
Was an immediate love.
I'd also recommend Apothia If (Los Angeles based store, they have sample sets.) Sage by Sage Machado is a *gorgeous* green musk, Perfect Veil by Sarah Horowitz, both are at Luckyscent and they're affordable.
This has always been my favorite category of scents as Coty Wild Musk Oil was one sexy thing that started my frag journey.
(could go on & on but it's 1:30 am. had to watch this video! :D
OK, Cheeky Smile has just shot up to my "Must Have" list.
312 smells herbal? ... like the OG Herbal Essence?
A n d that's another JHAG that I want. Just bought Musc Invisible, haven't even opened it yet.
(I'm a Barefoot Dreams girl, too. Have two of the blankets. ahhh. so squishy soft. night night now. loved the video, *always* love hearing about the scents of which you speak.) :)
Hiiii! You are so sweet to watch late at night! Thank you! 💖 Thank you also for these lovely recommendations! So many great fragrances to try. 🥰🥰🥰 I wouldn't say 312 Saint Honoré smells like OG Herbal Essences. More like spa style shampoos that have herbal touches. Hope that helps! And YESSS to all Barefoot Dreams products! Woohoo! Amazing stuff. I have robe on RIGHT NOW! 😆😆😆
I’ve been testing samples and have run across a few skin scents.
Jhag sunny side up
Hermetica peonypop
Floraiku I am coming home.
And today I’m trying memo winter palace.
And then there is my old friend aerin amber musk.
Some of these are pricey though, but they are all very interesting lovely close to skin. Very inoffensive
Sunny Side Up is so lovelyvand light. Floraiku is fabulous all around - those bottle designs! Fabulous! 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
I love Leau papier so much!
Great! I'm glad it's a love for you! 💖
Current skin scent is Missing Person by Phlur
Thanks for sharing this one! 🥰🥰🥰
Really lovely vid Veronica 🩷💜. I originally purchased Not a Perfume and couldn’t smell a darned thing on my skin… a few months later, I use it as a stand alone skin scent, so fresh and clean on me ❤️🧡. I get visuals when you describe things Veronica and I can be in hysterics eg with L’Eau Papier….’ You need to be really, really, really, reaaaally close to smell it” my visual was of a fish tank with those hilarious sucker fish 😂😂. Thank you , love everything you do ❤️🩷🧡🥰🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺 Stani
Thank you so much, Stani! 💖🥰 I have fun filming these videos and I'm glad you enjoy them! I'm going to give Another 13 a second go. Maybe I'll pick up the magic this time. 🤷🏻♀️
I love Musc Moschus! I’ve gone through two samples, and really want a full bottle! I’m nose blind to Another 13 and Clean Reserve Skin, so I need to go more musky or powdery for skin scents. These days, it’s Nuee Bleue from Violet for me.
I just looked up Nuée Bleue - sounds quite lovely! Thanks for adding it! 💖💖💖
Good evening Veronica 😊. Loving the look, gorgeous. Oh Candy Store's take me waaay back😂. When life was filled with care free summers. Penny candy from the house down the street. Pickles stuff with chews, I wasn't a pickle stuff with peppermint. Okay now that I've gone down memory lane. Let me get into the video 😊😂.
Thank youuuuu 🥰🥰🥰 Yes! The memories of childhood candy indulgences. 😊😊😊
So you just sold me on Musc Moschus. I'm hoping this works out 2B my signature scent!!! Your description provided a beautiful picture!!
Awesome! Let us know how it works out for you! I think it's WONDERFUL! 💖
i LOVE Leau Papier ! I am so into scents like that lately....
Hi Paola! 💖 I would imagine it would be awesome for hospital settings! 👍👍👍
You look incredible, Veronica! And I bet you smell incredible, too! You featured so many of my faves, like Musc Moschus, Ode to Dullness and Clean Skin. Love your comparison of BDK's 312 Saint Honore to Lineage. When I first sampled it I thought it smelled a lot like Another 13, though I seem to be the only one getting that. I'd love to see you review Diptyque Fleur de Peau - L'eau Papier is getting all the attention, but IMHO FdP is a much better skin scent, full of cottony musks that just smell so fresh and clean. A very unique scent I love is Etat Libre Orange's Ghost in the Shell, which smells like a milky musk with a slight ozonic quality - skin scent of a robot, perhaps? 😆And my fave musk/skin scent along with Rania J is Initio's Musk Therapy - I could bathe in that stuff!
Thank you kindly! 💖 Musk Therapy is delightful. I'm mentioning it in the upcoming musk video. Glad you enjoy some of these. I've seen great reviews for Fleur de Peau and I've tried Ghost in the Shell - quite nice! 💖💖💖
Thank you for this list of fragrances,need to try some of them 🙌I will add to this list white fire Tiziana Terenzi I start already second bottle it’s says a lot with my big perfume collection.
Thank you for adding White Fire! I've heard lovely reviews for it. 🥰🥰🥰
I am enjoying L’Eau Papier but I’m surprised you can’t smell it. I find it to be quite strong and I definitely get a hint of steamed jasmine rice. I have a travel spray of Cheeky Smile but I have yet to do a proper test drive. My favorite scents in this molecular category are JHAG Moscow Mule and Arizona Bloom. I like Another 13 but I don’t care to support Lauder’s ridiculous price gouging endeavors. 😂
I can smell L'eau Papier but it's very soft on me. Glad you're loving it! I've heard others mention that rice aspect too. 👍👍👍
You look quite fetching today. Very pretty!
Thank you so much! 💖💖💖
I just got 312. I love it. And it lasts
Woohoo! 🎉
Dyptique is a house I’m interested in. And, I like clean, fresh, green scents. I just haven’t bit the bullet on anything yet. I think all of their scents are basically second skin scents, no?
I do think they are intended to be on the more understated side. 👍👍👍
Your makeup is gorgeous! ❤
Thank you, Jackie! 💖
I purchased Easy Bake from Huda Beauty and it is a lovely musky skin scent……❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm interested in trying this one! 💖💖💖
Great video Veronica. Many fragrances piqued my interest.I just got a sample of Creme de Cuir. Have smelled it yet. I do have Candy and it's good. L'Eua Papier has been going around and I will get my nose on it. Thank you for sharing ❤
Hi Shenetta! Hope you enjoy Creme de Cuir! Thanks for watching! 💖💖💖
Two other fragrances from Diptyque that I believe are better skin scents are Fleur de Peau and Ilio (Ilio being my fave)
Thank you for sharing! 🥰💖
Wearing Musc Amos his today for the farmers market/garden shopping kind of errand morning. I can recommend trying Jovoy’s Musc Pallas. It’s lovely.
I have Musc Pallas! It will be in my musk video coming up. Thank you!
Hey Veronica! I tried glossier you today and loved it and think this may belong in this category. I looove Hermes Santal Massoia! It has something horse like in the best way and I’ve gifted decants to my horse lover friends. I think it’s one of the best creamy wood scents ever. ❤
Hi Janice! Yes, I mentioned Glossier You at the end. Almost forgot it! 😲 Horses? I love the association!!
