    🌟 About this video:
    Did you ever wonder why a particular fragrance is named as it is? Honestly I think about this with pretty much ever perfume I come across! I love words and meanings and I always wonder if the name is linked to the inspiration, simply reflecting how the fragrance smells or is just a clever marketing ploy to get people interested.
    Sometimes names are just that, there to make it easy to recognise and to refer to, at other times, names are a critical part of the fragrance's identity and soul and you can't imagine it being called anything else.
    Here I discuss the back stories to 3 or 4 fragrance names, including a random interlude on the fabulous "cat" in Breakfast At Tiffany's, cos why not?
    Did you already know about any of these? Do you have a fragrance with an interesting name? Would you rename any fragrances in your collection? Do you think some perfume names are simply inappropriate? Do you like a controversial name?

    Hello Dr. Claire. A woman after my inquisitive heart. I love these stories and prefer going down these type of rabbit holes, if you will, to discover the secrets behind things. I’m not surprised by anything Tom Ford does. I’m inclined to believe he named rose pr1ck after himself. Lol!

    Thank you, Claire, for the educational video. I don't think Audrey would forbid the fragrance. Stars are stars, after all - for loving exposure and mystery and danger is just a part of it , part of advertising. It's like Tabac Blonde and some other names. They concurred it will draw sales.

    Wonderful, interesting video Claire! I look forward to learning something new from your videos. I think the Tom Ford names are not too subtle and very attention getting. I think anything that sounds 'forbidden' like the name of L'interit would have attracted attention for the same reason... (But who doesn't love Audrey Hepburn?) I don't think MFK has any regrets with Baccarat Rouge, that fragrance has made him very rich. It would be great to hear about other fragrances if your so inclined to do another video on this theme. I love hearing the history and stories behind the creation of beautiful things including perfume. Thanks for your video! - Jenn

    • @dr.claire.perfume
      @dr.claire.perfume  Год назад

      Hey Jenn 😊 thank you! Yes me too! I always want to know why things are so. Curiosity always gets to me! I agree with Tom Ford, his name's have become progressively more extreme and overt. I think Audrey probably did say she forbade the release of the fragrance to others but just as a joke and I would think Givenchy just ran with it as a name. BR540 being successful looks like serendipity really, what if Francis K hadn't chosen to release it as a cheaper non limited edition version? Thanks for watching ❤️

    Dear Claire, you have certainly peaked my interest in regards to L’Interdit perfume. According to Wikipedia, the name originated due to Audrey Hepburn initially saying she forbids Givenchy from marketing the fragrance he made exclusively for her, and later not only agrees but even participates in the process and gives it that name. How fascinating indeed 👌🥰 I would love to smell the original version from 1950s, as it’s completely different from today’s note composition. Thank you for sharing your knowledge 🌹🤗

    • @dr.claire.perfume
      @dr.claire.perfume  Год назад +1

      Well that sounds like it could entirely explain it! I think she would have said I forbid it in a very coquettish way and probably didn't entirely mean it! 😂 I really like l'interdit! I think the range stands out. Unpopular opinion, but I like the jasmine one and the intense. 🤷‍♀️

      @sweetsimpleslowlife2709 Год назад

      @Claire Smith from my experience with Zara fragrances, and I have accumulated quite a few, the ones that come in tall bottles have really good performance, nice projection and decent lasting power, at least 6-8 hours and some up to 12 hrs or more. The ones in the square bottles are not as strong, although they seem to get better with time, after they macerate for a while. Hope this helps!

    I loved this Claire, so, so interesting!
    I do think BR540 is an amazing scent and deserves the love it gets. I don't like it on me, mostly because I don't smell much apart from super candied sweet wafts. But Adam absolutely loves it and I think it smells much more woody and masculine on him.
    Obvs not smelled the original, but the current L'Interdit is a great smelling fragrance, as is L'interdit Rouge. Too sweet for my taste but I do absolutely love tuberose, even if I have ones that I prefer.
    So that just leaves the one with the F word... and I have never smelled it. 🤣

I would be curious to smell BR540 on a man close up actually. I did smell that or a dupe on someone 20m away a few weeks back! 😂 So strong!

    loved the stories even though I miraculously knew some of them! I didn't know some of the nitty gritty though. I like the FF perfume, but purposefully didn't buy it on discount when I saw it once because.......well.....yea. And it smells similar to something I already have. :)

      I went to try FF and I wasn't in love with it. I think the only two from that line that I've tried and really enjoy are noir de noir and lost cherry (but the longevity of that is awful). I've noticed quite a few have been discontinued recently, I saw plum japonais at a huge discount but for a 250ml bottle, so I didn't because that would have been one other planet of a blind buy but actually relatively risk free because I've since seen people resell it for more than twice what it was selling for! 🤣

    Another fascinating video, Claire 😊 Your topics are always so interesting. I only knew the basics of BR540’s name and delving into the original formulation was very cool. I had no idea about the golden-red crystal. 🥰 As you mentioned, names are an integral part of the marketing. One fragrance on my mind is YSL Babycat from Les Vestiaires collection. Babycat meaning leopard print. That said, I think it just sounds fun and daring. Coupled with its near impossibility to buy right now, a beautiful minimal bottle, and the prestige price point, I think it’s success is due to more than just smelling nice. 😉

    Hi dear claire❤🥰
    What a fascinating story behind the name of baccarat rouge!
    I am testing a decant of Tom Ford lost cherry. I get the cherry in the opening then it's totally gone. On my skin It's all about bitter almond. Is it the reason why it's called lost cherry?
    I have loved the idea of this video. So enjoyable and informative as always ❤😘

    Another great idea for a video 🥰. Yes, a lot of us are curious how and why did companies have chosen a certain name for a perfume.. At least we are, perfume aficionados 😍. I have a friend that after I told her about Misia from Chanel, who was Misia etc...she told me "Maybe you should do a video about perfumes names and all that?". I wondered if she was supportive... Or tried to get rid of me 😅🤗, in a constructive manner, of course

    Well I thought so much more was needed about 👅🍑 💦 Bitter peach 😂.
    Yes Mr Ford does have some risqué names, you can tell he's one of the UKs best indie perfumers favourite.
    I didn't know anything about the Givenchy but that is a really good story. I don't know with Audrey obviously she was always lovely in film but maybe she was a diva and I do doubt she had any choice at all about it's release, she was only the inspiration I guess.
    Effin Fabulous for me is Effing not my effin cup of tea. Way too effing sharp 🤣 you're allowed to Eff on my videos now
    Br540 was one I knew about but why the chuff it's so popular is a mystery to me. Maybe it was that intregue with it being limited at first?
    Very good video mate and very interesting

      Haha, only you would suggest I find the meaning of bitter peach 🤦‍♀️ I kind of obliged 😂 here have an emoji for getting me to look into it 🍑 😂 do you mean ATH loves him? I can see the perfume naming ideas crossing over a bit between the two 😂
      From what others are saying about Audrey, I think the version I want to believe is that she initially said i forbid it coquettishly, as a joke and then it got taken as more seriously be history, because she later supported and promoted the release.
      I went to try effing fabulous a few weeks ago, it wasn't for me either 🤷‍♀️ few of Tom Ford fragrances are loves from the private line from the ones I've tried.
      I don't get the br540 thing either, but wow, what a hit for Francis K?! That must be a double-edged sword really. He's had so many other successful fragrances but they just get somewhat overshadowed now! 🤷‍♀️

    I might be wrong but I think I've read back in the day that Acqua di Gio is a scent that Armani created inspired by a vacation he took in the Meditarranean Sea and the color (of the bottle and liquid) is like the water. But I might be wrong

    I don't love BR540, but I can recognize that it's a revolutionary fragrance that was unique when it came out. It's a very distinct DNA, love it or hate it.
    Mentioning Tom Ford made me think of Black Orchid. Nothing daring about the name, but it's rumored that Tom Ford wanted the fragrance to smell like a man's crotch.

    • @dr.claire.perfume
      @dr.claire.perfume  Год назад +1

      Oh wow! I guess that would figure given the association with orchid tubers and male genitalia. That's really interesting! I will have a read about that!

    In an effort to seem new and challenge the perfume "establishment," we now have indie houses using what I call "anti-names." And yes, I am referring particularly to Etat Libre d'Orange. Would you rush to purchase something called "Fat Electrician Semi-Modern Vetiver"? or "Delicious Closet Queen?" I think some people might feel uncomfortable requesting a perfume by such a title. But that's probably intentional on Etat's part -- it goes with their "bad-boy" reputation. It just reminds me of sniggering teenagers trying to shock.
    Then on the other hand, there are niche houses that just use a combination of letters and numbers for each perfume in an effort to appear "edgy." That doesn't tell the consumer anything about the fragrance and makes it more difficult to remember and distinguish between them all.
    So I find it very refreshing that there could be a perfume called "F***** Fabulous." It's edgy and tells you something about the perfume. Tom Ford showed how that could be done.

    • @dr.claire.perfume
      @dr.claire.perfume  Год назад

      Yes! Those Etat libre d'orange fragrances have really strange names 🤣 and actually the bon parfumeur fragrances really confuse me, I remember trying one and really liking it but I've no clue which it was because they use numbers for their fragrance names 🤷‍♀️
