Guys you gotta try Amsaan Gold! It's similar to Oriana and Love. Its really very gorgeous sweet gourmand feminine perfume! It's got caramel candy, praline, tonka bean, vanilla plus sweet fruity notes. Soooo good, strong and long lasting, so affordable! It only around Au $60.00. Soki you didn't mention Amsaan Gold! It smells like the exspensive ones. Very creamy, sweet, feminine, exspensive smelling🍨🧁🍬🍮🍰
So to me LDBS smells like spun sugar marshmallows. Sharp and simply sweet almost saccharine. Love it! Oriana is much deeper and almost roasted marshmallow. It’s sweet but more complex, deep and almost creamy syrup. I adore them both!
I tried the 3 of them And imo kilian love dont be shy is on another level when it comes to the depth... it screams luxury , the best gourmand fragrance .. not cloying and not in your face sugary but you have to try it first if you know how turkish delights smells this is exactly LDBS by kilian For D&G pour femme intense it smells exactly like an old makeup bag ftom the 90's and the longevity is 3/10 it doesnt last at all something is really wrong when it comes to longevity in many D&G frag. Hope they fix this soon as i am a fan of many perfumes from their house... Thank you soki for the amazing reviews ..big fan❤
I also have the dossier dupe for Love and I have the Killian to compare and it is an excellent dupe! I just ordered another dossier dupe because I liked it so much!
To my nose Si Fiori is closer.. the pour femme intense smells like used baby wipes on me. I wasn't a big fan of Sintra either it had a similar vibe. I love Love Don't Be Shy, Oriana, Safanad, and the now discontinued Si Fiori
Hi! I love your videos especially the note specific ones and dupes/alternatives. But to my nose and pH, Oriana is more of citrus musk instead of the sweet marshmallow that I was hoping for and it smells different from Kilian's Love Don't Be Shy. Just giving my two cents that everybody's nose is different and again thank you for your videos Soki!
I’ve been wearing both Love don’t be shy and Oriana side by side for the last few days. I’m deciding which one is worthy of a full bottle, and I'm leaning towards the clean detergent vibe of Oriana. They are quite similar in many ways. LDBS feels denser to me and has more depth, perhaps a bit more complexity. On the other hand, Oriana is much lighter and carefree, but what really sells it to me is the clean and refreshing feel. I absolutely love it
LOVE marshmallowy perfumes! All 3 of these are great. When I first smelled Oriana, it immediately reminded me of Byredo's Sundazed, which I already own & love, but it's also kind of a pricey one. Another marshmallow fragrance that I love that is super affordable and underrated (but not necessarily a dupe for any of these other ones mentioned here) is Juicy's Hollywood Royale. On another note, it's so funny that you're talking about Kilian's Love because the strawberry in Empress ever-so-slightly reminds me of it! Not dupes or anything at all but with my chemistry, it has just a slight nod to it. Full review of Empress still coming, too, I promise! 💖 Hoping to film it in the upcoming week. I'm just starting to experiment with full-length YT vids vs. just the IG Reels I've been doing up until now.
Dossier Floral Marshmallow is the best dupe, I’m not sure if you can get it in the UK but it even turns orange like the Kilian. Armani Si Fiore has similar vibes but is discontinued. I decluttered both versions of Pour Femne. I have Floral Marshmallow and Oriana as well as 7.5ml of Kilian. Oriana is my favorite but the Dossier is best for the price!!!!
I would have to say no to that oakchas sweet addict is the best love don’t be shy dupe give it bout 3-5 minutes to dry down I been I love since I have 3 of oakchas version had to send the dossier one back didn’t like that one and it didn’t last
have you tried Devotion by Dolce & Gabbana? I think the dry down is in the same wheelhouse. I have Oriana and Benevolence and a travel size of LDBS. I still love Dossier! Benevolence (HOS) is nice too if you catch it during a sale.
With regard to price point, I think people don’t talk enough about price/ml if you buy the 75ml Oriana is less expensive in cost/ml than Love Don’t be shy for the 50ml but if you get the 30ml you are paying more per ml for Oriana than LDBS (at least with the prices in Canada). Fragrance reviewers keep opining prices of some perfumes of like they can’t justify the price of something or can’t justify the cost of a full bottle but some that they talk about that are bigger bottles and actually cheaper per ml than bottles they own. That being said I agree with spending less to get a 10ml of something (even though you are spending more per ml) so you can see if you like it but 30ml vs 75 ml or otherwise I think this should be mentioned.
I have a dupe for Oriana from Dua (hey sweetie) and a dupe from Dossier for Killian Love (Floral Marshmallow) so I think I'm good. I have tried Pour Femme (not the intense) and it was so faint, but I do see the similar vibe with the orange blossom and marshmallow
I have the pour femme intense, and I find it very weak also!(no intensity about it), so I fail to see it out-shining Oriana. The way people are describing Oriana makes me think you have to be careful with it.
Thank you for this! I bought a sample of LDBS and while I like it, the price puts me off even though I'd pay that for Tom Ford. D&G sounds like a great alternative, especially if it's a little more grown up.
Omg I can’t wait to watch this!!! It’s going to be so interesting I just know it. Also a little secret between you and me Im 99.9% sure my sister has bought me empress by Soki London for Christmas 🙊🙊🙊🙊 I’m so freaking excited 😆😆💓💓
In my country turkey there is a brand name called Beymen. And it sells only unisex perfumes. I love beymen perfumes a lot. I meant they sell xerjoff parfums de marly kilian creed etc.
Oriana has a weird laundry detergent vibe to me that makes it very different from LDBS. Where LDBS smells distinctly marshmallow and orange blossom, oriana reminds me of smarties and laundry detergent. Perdizione by nobile 1942 and memory sintra were much closer to me than oriana.
Hi..I trust your opinion and I'm not certain about this fragrance. Idk if you've smelled house of siliage cream chiffon perfume, but it is a very rich vanilla gourmand. Kind of heavy but beautiful. Would you recommend such a rich vanilla gourmand in warmer weather?
I’ve smelled the dupe of love don’t be shy from dossier and it’s very similar. Not exact to be honest! LDBS smells very rich in the warm marshmallow musk once it’s settled and dried where the dupe stays on the lighter end.
Can you do a review of Dossier fragrances? Their perfumes are inspired by pricey ones, like Kilian and Jo Malone, and they sell it for a fraction of the price. But I'm hesitant to buy anything if I can't smell it
Si Fiori was an excellent 'cheap' alternative but since it's discontinued the price costs as much as the niche brands 🤷🏼♀️ luckily I bought three 100ml bottles that were on sale for £70 at Boots as back ups
○●KDJ INSPIRED●○ (UK based!) has a PERFECT Alternative for 💗Love don't be shy💗. They have Extrait version and it is sooo strong and spot-on. I finished 2 bottles of it. Highly recommended
Do not rely on the recommendation of D&G Pour Femme Intense unless you love the smell of baby wipes! I don't know what Oriana and LDBS smell like, but if they also smell like baby wipes, it's a hard pass for me.
Great video! Always so honest and happy. Would also love to see a dupe for ''Pink me Up'' - Atelier des Ors. I believe that is another hyped perfume - smells great, but way too expensive for what it actually is. Thank you. :)

I own all 3 love, oriana and the dolce pour femme intense and i dont think they smell the same. 😮
So to me LDBS smells like spun sugar marshmallows. Sharp and simply sweet almost saccharine. Love it! Oriana is much deeper and almost roasted marshmallow. It’s sweet but more complex, deep and almost creamy syrup. I adore them both!
I agree oriana is more complex. I wish it lasted longer
Nothing compares to Kilian Love don't be shy
I tried the 3 of them
And imo kilian love dont be shy is on another level when it comes to the depth... it screams luxury , the best gourmand fragrance .. not cloying and not in your face sugary but you have to try it first if you know how turkish delights smells this is exactly LDBS by kilian
For
D&G pour femme intense it smells exactly like an old makeup bag ftom the 90's and the longevity is 3/10 it doesnt last at all something is really wrong when it comes to longevity in many D&G frag.
Hope they fix this soon as i am a fan of many perfumes from their house...
Thank you soki for the amazing reviews ..big fan❤
Just tried a Dossier dupe of Love, Don’t be Shy and I really like it!
ooo! I don't think dossier ship to UK :(
YES I HAVE THAT TO AND I LIKE IT BY DOSSIER
That’s good to know because I ordered it from them. It’s a blind purchase so hoping I like it
I also have the dossier dupe for Love and I have the Killian to compare and it is an excellent dupe! I just ordered another dossier dupe because I liked it so much!
@@SokiLondonActually they have a website here in the UK but when you have a look at it, all of their perfumes are "sold-out" lmao
To my nose Si Fiori is closer.. the pour femme intense smells like used baby wipes on me. I wasn't a big fan of Sintra either it had a similar vibe. I love Love Don't Be Shy, Oriana, Safanad, and the now discontinued Si Fiori

How cute is the little bottle! Didn’t know PDM had 30ml bottles..

I have Dua Be in Love, which is an amazing clone of LDBS. Have been looking for some others though!

I decluttered both versions of Pour Femne. I have Floral Marshmallow and Oriana as well as 7.5ml of Kilian. Oriana is my favorite but the Dossier is best for the price!!!!
Dossier has a UK website now.

Do you prefer oriana or more pour femme?
I cant decision betweend d&g pour femme intense and oriana. Which one is louder or a Little bit stronger ?

Ooooh I am actually waiting for Hey Sweetie to come bk in stock
So am I 😂
I have the pour femme intense, and I find it very weak also!(no intensity about it), so I fail to see it out-shining Oriana. The way people are describing Oriana makes me think you have to be careful with it.

haha aw yay what a lovely Christmas pressie! xx
Btw forgot to mention that I also have a video with like 8 smell alike to love don’t be shy and Oriana and Sintra (which is a tiny bit different) ❤
In my country turkey there is a brand name called Beymen. And it sells only unisex perfumes. I love beymen perfumes a lot. I meant they sell xerjoff parfums de marly kilian creed etc.

Thank you Soki! ❤Also Jean Paul Gaultier Cabaret, especially the red bottle, is very similar for a fraction of the price 😂❤
I've always wanted to try the Parfums de Marly fragrances. They are so good from what I remember when I put in on my skin and sampled it in the store.
Try the shop Decantx
They really do..l feel bamboozled lol…I have oriana , Ldbs…& Dolce
Hi..I trust your opinion and I'm not certain about this fragrance. Idk if you've smelled house of siliage cream chiffon perfume, but it is a very rich vanilla gourmand. Kind of heavy but beautiful. Would you recommend such a rich vanilla gourmand in warmer weather?

Thank you so much I do love dupe recommendations ♥️
Great information lovely review
A great dupe for LDBS could be Armani’s Sí fiori. If not better on it’s own then LDBS
Si fiori is discontinued :)
Can you do a review of Dossier fragrances? Their perfumes are inspired by pricey ones, like Kilian and Jo Malone, and they sell it for a fraction of the price. But I'm hesitant to buy anything if I can't smell it
Soki yes please do a review of Dossier fragrances!
Hi Sophie, I wear Oriana, as I don’t like Tuberose 🤷♀️ Thanks for all your work and have a nice Christmas 🎄
Great money saving tip!
Is LDBS long lasting? Need to try the Oriana. Thanks for your review!
It is quite long lasting on me as compared to delina
Si Fiori was an excellent 'cheap' alternative but since it's discontinued the price costs as much as the niche brands 🤷🏼♀️ luckily I bought three 100ml bottles that were on sale for £70 at Boots as back ups
○●KDJ INSPIRED●○ (UK based!) has a PERFECT Alternative for 💗Love don't be shy💗. They have Extrait version and it is sooo strong and spot-on. I finished 2 bottles of it. Highly recommended
Dolce is nothing like Love for me. Even Oriana is much more sweet😮
I wear dolce and gabbana pour femme
Do not rely on the recommendation of D&G Pour Femme Intense unless you love the smell of baby wipes! I don't know what Oriana and LDBS smell like, but if they also smell like baby wipes, it's a hard pass for me.
Now make a video about parfum de marley delina exclisif dupes ☺️
I have one on delina dupes ruclips.net/video/Y8yWFA-vd7Y/видео.html
Pour femme intense was discontinued 😢
So sad 😞
I tried the parfum de marly
Thank you for saying pour femme intense is a dupe, makes me want to not purchase oriana since I have that and love it 🤣
You are so welcome!
Great video! Always so honest and happy. Would also love to see a dupe for ''Pink me Up'' - Atelier des Ors. I believe that is another hyped perfume - smells great, but way too expensive for what it actually is. Thank you. :)
I have both of these
So, you Brits do “Black Friday?”
Yep I think it’s worldwide now
Here in Central Europe, we have it now as well
Oriana is better to me I have both
❤
