Thank you so much for your kind words Chris! You are such a beautiful soul inside and out and I am so glad you started your channel, because now you are one of MY faves! 🤗😘
Love love love this video! I’m so glad you tried Henry Rose, looking forward to your house review on them! I have Jake’s House and can’t wait to try Window’s Down. Great suggestions - my fav work scents are basically freshies and soft/delicate/unisex scents such as wood sage and sea salt, ginger essence by Origins, white musk from the Body Shop, Marra by Guy Fox, Histoire d’orangers and Couleur Vanille by L’Artisan Parfumeur, any of the molecule fragrances in my collection (Not a Perfume, JHAG), Vanori by Sylvaine Delacourt, Nest body sprays like Grapefruit and Verbena…I dare not go on! Thanks fir the wonderful content 🙂👍.
Hi Laura!! You could have made this video also!! You’ve got some great ones!! I’m not at home at the moment (away for quick weekend vacay) but I think it’s Windows Down that I loved also….or Last Light? They were ALL lovely…I was surprised. I liked them all. Not a stinker in the bunch. 😉❤️
Your description of Tardes is spot on! I agree it was just a like for me in the beginning & then I grew to appreciate its uniqueness 💜 I know you’ve talked about Architects Club a few times and now I would like to try it as I’m not certain about whether I like vanillas or not - this one seems like a ‘safe’ try! Another gem of a video, Chris 💛 thank you!
Thank you Mira! 😉❤️The Architects Club and Eau Duelle are very very good “gateway vanillas”. If you want to start trying vanillas…these are a good place to start. 🥰
Great topic Chris! I’m in tech and nobody wears fragrance. nobody gives compliments. In my circle, I think more ppl get offended than not. even my own sister doesn’t like me around her cats bc my scent lingered on their fur for a week 😂 and that was mon guerlain! (My hobby consists of testing on test strips where I can enjoy 10-15 perfumes a day without committing to wearing anything offensive 🤣 I enjoy it actually 😆)
Yes it’s very tricky! But it’s impossible to be scent free. Shampoos have fragrance. Hand cream, laundry detergent , fabric softener even spray starch has a scent. So we can’t live in a fragrance free world. It’s impossible just about. I agree it has to be very quiet and and not bombastic. I mean all of us at work know how to be coy…..and certain fragrances are just off limits (hello Angel, Alien and Coco Mme….talking to you!)😂😂😂. They all fall into the “avoid” categories….strong floral, strong patchouli and strong patchouli /sweet. Big no no. 😉
I've become so bold at work with COVID-19 and our mask requirement that I wore Hindu KUSH a few weeks ago 😁. In normal times my go-to house for work has always been Bvlgari. They have a beautiful selection of pleasant and professional offerings
Yes I definitely got a little bolder with masking ……I knew if someone said “oh wow…you smell so nice…what is it?” With a mask on that I either 1) sprayed too much (which I almost never do) or 2). Got a little adventurous with my choices. All of those adventurous choices did not make this list!!! 😉😂😂
I have been working at home since last March, so I wear whatever I want lol. But, prior to that my faves for work were Tocca Guilietta, Stella McCartney Stella, Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue and Van Cleef and Arpels California Reverie
Hi LaCrissa! I am envious you can spray whatever you want!!! I do that when I get home and on the weekends!!!! But those are lovely! Stella was my signature work scent for years……I still think it’s beautiful to this day. I’m a big fan of Van Cleef & Arpels also. Thanks so much for stopping by! 😉💕
Hey there! Wore Nothing But Sea and Sky (the sample you sent) as my SOTD to travel - we're in Mexico in a little quiet house on the beach. ⛱ It was perfect for the flight and the name was appropriate for the trip. 👌💖😘
I just subscribed! I've been wanting to be more educated on feminine fragrances and I love your presentation! Is that Narciso Rodriguez on the mantle? I kept waiting for that one to make an appearance! 😂
Hi there Mike!!!!! Well….firstly thank you so much for subscribing!🥰🙏🏻 and being so kind about my presentation! I look back on my earlier videos and want to cringe (well…I do cringe)😂😂And yes I completely forgot about one of my favorites up there!!!!! NR For Her!!! I used to always film really really late at night and would often times leave out a bottle! 😂😂I need a script. Thanks again for stopping by and I love having male voices and opinions on my channel as well. Mua! 😉❤️
Hey, Chris! I once wore Cloud 2.0 to an appointment and sprayed it really heavily because I couldn't smell it that well, but apparenty everyone else could because I got a lot of comments. So I try to stay away from those really molecular frags because I have to overspray to smell them and I can't gauge how well others pick up on molecular scents. Anyway, mine are Glossier You, Musk Therapy, Parisian Musc, Musc Infini, and any musks except my beloved Musc Ravageur is a NO for work. Also, Santal Basmati and sandalwoods like Gris Charnel. I also sometimes wear Cuir Beluga if I'm nervous and need to feel really put together, but make sure not to overspray. I do wear others that I just do one or 2 spritzes under my clothing (in the lower cleavage area) if I want to smell wafts of it myself but not make it too loud. I need to try Nothing But Sea and Sky since you recommend it!
Lol!!!!! I’ve had that same experience!!! And those ones you chose are amazing…..and I prob wouldn’t wear Musc Ravageur either to work!! 🥰🥰Thanks for the lovely comment.
I love Ooh La la! Haven’t worn it to work yet but I bet it would work! I need to try Ten Fifteen! I’m a sandalwood nut!! 🥰❤️😉. NBSAS…..oh girl…..it just speaks to me. Simple but my nose loves it!!! 😘
I'm wearing Sandalwood Temple rn and thought, "Oh, wait, does Chris know about this?!" Quick search and _of course you do!_ Learned about it from Jus de Rose on YT and managed to grab it during Credo sale 🙌 It'd be so perfect for an office ... though I WFH, so it's all Shaghaf Oud and Oud Mood (and occasionally Oud Satin Mood) in my "office." Anything goes, overspray away! 😅
Lol!!! Thanks for thinking of me Sara!!! Yes it’s so good right??!!! And you are lucky you can be adventurous WFH with your fragrances!! Oh to be able to overspray at work!!! It’s my fantasy!!! 🤣Thanks so much for stopping by! 🥰❤️
I love that you asked at the hotel desk what was being pumped into the hotel😘. Have you ever been in the jewelry store Uno de 50? Nice enough jewelry, but what draws me into the store every time is the scent they have pumping in. It is the most intoxicating scent ever!
I haven’t been in there! Is it a New York thing? But another snazzy hotel in Knoxville Tennessee same thing….and of course….. white tea again! Well! I wanted to buy it for my house! I was hoping at least they sold the candle or scent or body products in the gift shop. That was my hope! 😉❤️🥰👏🏻
@@ThePerfumeNest it’s not just in ny…I got my hands on the candle…one of the stores said they were going to make body products but as far as I know they haven’t. I’m going to try to put some of the melted wax in your package and hope it will do the scent justice
I just discovered and have fallen in love with Virgile by Sylvaine Delacorte, which is a fresh vanilla. It is clean yet sophisticated, elegant, and has character. It sounds somewhat like the Architect's Club by the way you describe it
Hi Bella! Virgile is lovely I agree. I almost bought a full bottle and just might one day. I think Virgile has orange blossom ….but I can’t remember. All I remember is I did the discovery set and really liked it. 😉❤️
Hello sophisticated lady. Thank you for this video. It helps as well to know what to wear for a job interview (I have often struggled with choosing what to wear in this kind of situation.)
Hi Katy! Job interviews yes are tricky. Some offices may have no rules (perhaps legal offices) but it’s always best to play it safe at first. Then you can go crazy with the naughty listers (Alien, Angel, CocoMme, etc) if they are loosey goosey. 😉❤️
yeah, agree with Bvlgari au thé Blanc .... the of all the three from the line (Noir is too oudy, Green is too minty but Blanc is just airy and pleasant for daily wearing)
What a nice video and line up, we share the love for quite a few here, I love Santal Basmati, Tardes, Kedu and Au the Blanc.! Tardes wasn't love at first sniff but I gave it time and I love it💜 I couldn't agree more in terms of how inoffensive they are 🌹💜 would love to try Queens and Monsters!! on my wish list 😜
@@GBFragrances you would love Queens and Monsters because you love sandalwood. The opening you think it’s heading into Santal 33 dill pickle land…then fortunately it doesn’t! The 4 hour dry down is Very similar to RIVI on me! Heavenly. It’s not the same….but very similar. Their sample sets are cute also. In like little tic tac chewing gum containers. 😉
I am not sure I ever smelt fragrance on another scientist other than some of the students from the Middle East. Nuclear, Taif rose based scents are definitely an office / lab smell because of that. I don't mind though, I find it interesting, but I know some people would rather not smell other people at all. I usually stick to something citrussy or light fruity woody. Architect's clubs sounds like a good inoffensive vanilla.
Adding architects club, sandalwood temple, and nothing but sea and sky to my must sample list. My mom hates perfumes so I’m hoping these will pass her test!
I loved this list and actually went and got a bottle of Au the Blanc by Bvlgari and a decanter (bottle is sold out) of The Architect's Club by Arquiste and I can't stop spraying Au the Blanc! its is gorgeous I can't believe I never paid attention to it before. Next ones on my list are Santal Basmati by Affinissence and Nothing But Sea and Sky by Une Nuit Nomade 🤗
Hi Mary!!! Yes! No one talks about Au the Blanc and like you….I think it’s lovely!!!!! I think if you like Au the Blanc you will like NBS and Sky. I actually had an extra bottle and did a giveaway of that one in September and the woman who won it says it is very “daydreamy” which is a cute and accurate way of describing it. That Santal Basmati…..watch out! It’s expensive. I have the small 15 -20. ml travel spray and I baby it. But that Sandalwood Temple……a gorgeous quiet stunner if you like a good buttery creamy Sandalwood . 💕Thank you so much for the feedback! I love that Mary! Send me your email address to my email listed in the description box. 😉
@@ThePerfumeNest Thank you Chris! I love creamy subtle sandalwood, I ordered a sample of Saldalwood Temple. Sadly Santal Basmati doesn't sells samples🥲 but I may start with a small size. I'll send my email!☺
Awww so glad you loved Queens and Monsters ! This one and Torn are definitively my fav two of the house. However I was actually surprised that you chose this for office friendly scent hahah - it wears quite loud on me somehow and on fabric it lasts and lasts. 😆 I wear Fog and Last Light as my office and white Tshirt scent ! Besides these I rotate between Commodity-Nectar, Clean-Rain, Maison Margiela Sailing Day, and Jo Malone - Wood Sage Sea Salt
Hi Jennifer! Yes you were the subscriber I was referring to! Lol!!! I just hadn’t asked you permission first if I could use you name. 😉❤️I am so enjoying the fragrances! I think Last Light is my next full bottle. They are all nice, not a stinker in the bunch! But thank you for your persistent encouragement!!!! 💕❤️😉
I wore them all and no one in my family could smell them on me. I was asking for input. So they all wear quiet on me which is great. I don’t need a punch in the face fragrance all the time. The quieter ones mean I can wear them to work! I really like Torn also but I have so so many vanillas…..it will take one that knocks my socks off to add it…I need to pare down my vanillas not add!! But it’s tempting with that one. ❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest hahah thanks for the love. No worries - feel free to use or not use my name - I am glad either way because the most important thing is that if a scent is good I want it to get the recognition is deserves :)))
Parfum de Marly Delina, Escentric Molecules Molecule 1, BDK Velvet Tonka, Initio Musk Therapy to name a few……those always get me a “you smell so good” vs what perfume are you wearing which translates to me that my fragrance might be a little too loud 😂. Happy Sunday…❤️
Hi Lourdes! Yes the Essential Molecules I absolutely are great ones! Yes!!! ❤️😉and I love the other ones you mention. Musk Therapy is a big favorite of mine right now!
Or……”oh my God what is that you’re wearing??!!” Lol! Yes….that’s not a good moment. Fortunately that only happens at home when I wear my “off limits at work” fragrances! 😂😂🥰
@@louselman I literally just died laughing out loud!!! 😂😂😂❤️I got that when I wore Alien once…..it was “OMG you smell like furniture polish!” ❤️😂❤️I really didn’t care for it either so that was a quick declutter!!! 😂😂😂👏🏻husbands…..they don’t mince words do they??? 😉❤️
i love bois d’iris!! so great! its compared alot to dior bois d’argent but i think its so much better. for work i really love prada infusions amande and the iris one of course; i actually layer both of those on top of carner tardes. other loves are cacharel noa, and dior pure poison, as well as the narciso white cube and the black cube (most narcisos in general). i also love chanel cristalle eau verte and jo malone colognes like honeysuckle and davana.
Hi there!!! Yes those Prada ones are definitely nice and safe…..the Narciso Cubes are tricky! 😂😂At least at my work….but it of course depends on your office. Some professions you can go crazy. My work?? We have to be a little more coy. 😉❤️
really??? wow!! theyre soooo soft on me, but i also tend to underspray at work and have very dry skin! especially the black edt! but yes everyones different i have several people who wear even baccarat rouge at my work 😂😂
@@dietperfume3373 the white cube I wore to work when I first got it. The For Her works very well at work ….but that white cube? Holy cow it’s nuclear. Two sprays…..and a coworker who is my friend asked for me to never wear it again because the musk is so strong. 😂😂😂😂we can speak freely with one another. It got decluttered quickly. It also gave me a headache it was so strong. But you know certain offices (maybe legal offices , etc ) you can probably wear what you want. 👏🏻👏🏻😉❤️and underspraying is always a good idea!!! 😉🥰
Recently got Cuir de Russie by Le Jardin Retrouve. Have you tried it? The name is deceiving...it's a beautiful woody, violet fragrance with only the smallest, softest touch of the softest leather for a bit of depth. Perfect for work or anytime, really!
Hi Jean! I just dug my sample out and sprayed it and you are right….it’s lovely! I’m very sensitive to leather and I also get violet…leather/suede and a softer woody dry down. Thanks for reminding me I had that. 😉❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest Leather is hit or miss for me, too, but this one works! I probably would not have tried it but for the help of an extremely knowledgeable niche shop owner helping me hunt for violet fragrances :)
Please put printed names of the fragrances on the video. I'm watching on my phone and the lettering on some of the bottles is too small or there's a glare on the bottle so that it's difficult to read. Thanks.
Sure! That video is almost two years old; all of my videos now and for over a year have names on the screen and I list them all in the description box. Thanks for watching! 🥰
I fail at this. I love Patchouli, i only like florals... My signature scent for years was Aromatics Elixir which is full of florals and patch and yet at least 3 men a week in those days, came into my office and said I love the perfume youre wearing!!! What is it. I have many roses in my collection that are soft and office safe. IMHO it is sweet perfumes with gobs of vanillla that are not office safe and get people running in the opposife direction 🧁🙃
Oh yes! I can’t wear some of my favorite fragrances (patch heavy ones). I have to save those for home or errands. 😥Those bombastic ones like Angel or Alien or Aromatic Elixer? There will ppl that love it and the same amount or more will recoil ! Those are love /hate ones for sure. I have owned Angel for years……and love the EDT….but wouldn’t dare wear it to my current work place. Now if I was a lawyer or musician or a SA???? I’d go crazy wearing what I wanted! It’s only working this job for over a decade (and seeing what works and what gets ppl in hot water) do I feel pretty confident knowing how to avoid a fragrance disaster! 😂😂❤️😉
@@ThePerfumeNest now I have to try that one as well, my favorites are twinkling nights and sea island shore~~~And I ‘ve been wanting to try Tardes but it’s difficult to get at where I live🥲
Hi Fatima. Black bottle? I don’t have one with a full black bottle but several in this video have a black top. I list all the perfumes I discuss in chronological order in the description box. Hope that helps!!!! ❤️
It isn’t just about not offending co-workers or customers, it is about inflicting pain on people. Those strong floral or patchouli perfumes induce headaches on some people. Some women (and men) are just clueless about what fragrance is appropriate for daytime or work. If in doubt, don’t wear any at all.
I’d love to hear what your work friendly fragrances are.
No 19 poudre or La Pausa :)
Umm!! Osmanthus Blossom by Jo Malone.
Aromatics in white by Clinique
Clean reserve SKIN
@@rebeccatuck7642 oh! That sounds very safe! 😉❤️
Green Spell by Eris 💚 💚 💚

Besides these I rotate between Commodity-Nectar, Clean-Rain, Maison Margiela Sailing Day, and Jo Malone - Wood Sage Sea Salt
Hi Jennifer! Yes you were the subscriber I was referring to! Lol!!! I just hadn’t asked you permission first if I could use you name. 😉❤️I am so enjoying the fragrances! I think Last Light is my next full bottle. They are all nice, not a stinker in the bunch! But thank you for your persistent encouragement!!!! 💕❤️😉
I wore them all and no one in my family could smell them on me. I was asking for input. So they all wear quiet on me which is great. I don’t need a punch in the face fragrance all the time. The quieter ones mean I can wear them to work! I really like Torn also but I have so so many vanillas…..it will take one that knocks my socks off to add it…I need to pare down my vanillas not add!! But it’s tempting with that one. ❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest hahah thanks for the love. No worries - feel free to use or not use my name - I am glad either way because the most important thing is that if a scent is good I want it to get the recognition is deserves :)))
Parfum de Marly Delina, Escentric Molecules Molecule 1, BDK Velvet Tonka, Initio Musk Therapy to name a few……those always get me a “you smell so good” vs what perfume are you wearing which translates to me that my fragrance might be a little too loud 😂. Happy Sunday…❤️
Hi Lourdes! Yes the Essential Molecules I absolutely are great ones! Yes!!! ❤️😉and I love the other ones you mention. Musk Therapy is a big favorite of mine right now!
Or……”oh my God what is that you’re wearing??!!” Lol! Yes….that’s not a good moment. Fortunately that only happens at home when I wear my “off limits at work” fragrances! 😂😂🥰
@@ThePerfumeNest I know my husband categorizes all my fragrances smells as “they smell like bug spray “ 😂😂😂.
@@louselman I literally just died laughing out loud!!! 😂😂😂❤️I got that when I wore Alien once…..it was “OMG you smell like furniture polish!” ❤️😂❤️I really didn’t care for it either so that was a quick declutter!!! 😂😂😂👏🏻husbands…..they don’t mince words do they??? 😉❤️
Hi what are your thoughts on zadig voltaire this is her for a work place in the retail place ? Many thanks 😊
Sure. Sandalwood perfumes work well. 🥰❤️
i love bois d’iris!! so great! its compared alot to dior bois d’argent but i think its so much better. for work i really love prada infusions amande and the iris one of course; i actually layer both of those on top of carner tardes. other loves are cacharel noa, and dior pure poison, as well as the narciso white cube and the black cube (most narcisos in general). i also love chanel cristalle eau verte and jo malone colognes like honeysuckle and davana.
Hi there!!! Yes those Prada ones are definitely nice and safe…..the Narciso Cubes are tricky! 😂😂At least at my work….but it of course depends on your office. Some professions you can go crazy. My work?? We have to be a little more coy. 😉❤️
really??? wow!! theyre soooo soft on me, but i also tend to underspray at work and have very dry skin! especially the black edt! but yes everyones different i have several people who wear even baccarat rouge at my work 😂😂
@@dietperfume3373 the white cube I wore to work when I first got it. The For Her works very well at work ….but that white cube? Holy cow it’s nuclear. Two sprays…..and a coworker who is my friend asked for me to never wear it again because the musk is so strong. 😂😂😂😂we can speak freely with one another. It got decluttered quickly. It also gave me a headache it was so strong. But you know certain offices (maybe legal offices , etc ) you can probably wear what you want. 👏🏻👏🏻😉❤️and underspraying is always a good idea!!! 😉🥰
Where did you get this top?! looove it!!
Hi Mel! It’s actually a dress! Very inexpensive from Boohoo. 😉❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest thank you! beautiful!
This summer I've been switching between Chloe Rose Tangerine and My Burberry. I hope I'm not giving anyone a headache 😊
Those are both lovely. And key to anything is going light on the trigger. 😉❤️
Recently got Cuir de Russie by Le Jardin Retrouve. Have you tried it? The name is deceiving...it's a beautiful woody, violet fragrance with only the smallest, softest touch of the softest leather for a bit of depth. Perfect for work or anytime, really!
Hi Jean! I just dug my sample out and sprayed it and you are right….it’s lovely! I’m very sensitive to leather and I also get violet…leather/suede and a softer woody dry down. Thanks for reminding me I had that. 😉❤️
@@ThePerfumeNest Leather is hit or miss for me, too, but this one works! I probably would not have tried it but for the help of an extremely knowledgeable niche shop owner helping me hunt for violet fragrances :)
The bulgari is it cologne or perfume?
I think it’s says “Cologne”
Please put printed names of the fragrances on the video. I'm watching on my phone and the lettering on some of the bottles is too small or there's a glare on the bottle so that it's difficult to read. Thanks.
Sure! That video is almost two years old; all of my videos now and for over a year have names on the screen and I list them all in the description box. Thanks for watching! 🥰
I fail at this. I love Patchouli, i only like florals... My signature scent for years was Aromatics Elixir which is full of florals and patch and yet at least 3 men a week in those days, came into my office and said I love the perfume youre wearing!!! What is it. I have many roses in my collection that are soft and office safe. IMHO it is sweet perfumes with gobs of vanillla that are not office safe and get people running in the opposife direction 🧁🙃
Oh yes! I can’t wear some of my favorite fragrances (patch heavy ones). I have to save those for home or errands. 😥Those bombastic ones like Angel or Alien or Aromatic Elixer? There will ppl that love it and the same amount or more will recoil ! Those are love /hate ones for sure. I have owned Angel for years……and love the EDT….but wouldn’t dare wear it to my current work place. Now if I was a lawyer or musician or a SA???? I’d go crazy wearing what I wanted! It’s only working this job for over a decade (and seeing what works and what gets ppl in hot water) do I feel pretty confident knowing how to avoid a fragrance disaster! 😂😂❤️😉
Sandalwood is sooo nauseating to me.. But hey, I'll still listen ! 😬
😂😂Not all sandalwoods are created equally. 😉❤️
Haha I’ve been wearing bath and body works body mists lately I feel they are non-offensive scents at work
You are correct! I have coworkers that do that (Rose Water and Ivy is a popular one at my workplace).
@@ThePerfumeNest now I have to try that one as well, my favorites are twinkling nights and sea island shore~~~And I ‘ve been wanting to try Tardes but it’s difficult to get at where I live🥲
The black bottle what is it?
Hi Fatima. Black bottle? I don’t have one with a full black bottle but several in this video have a black top. I list all the perfumes I discuss in chronological order in the description box. Hope that helps!!!! ❤️
I think that is narsisco rodriguez edt.
@@mizellecherry yes
I have the white bottle
Pure musk
Very nice soft and clean !
chriss, If you allow me I will add “Good Girl Gone Bad” from Kilian to the list. Thanks for the video and the lovely Chanel.
Oh I love that one! One of my all time favorites!
How to wear perfume successfully at work and not offend......Well I break all the rules there lol 😆 😅
Lol!!! Let me guess….were 36 sprays involved??? 😂😂😂
It isn’t just about not offending co-workers or customers, it is about inflicting pain on people. Those strong floral or patchouli perfumes induce headaches on some people. Some women (and men) are just clueless about what fragrance is appropriate for daytime or work. If in doubt, don’t wear any at all.
Yes. 🥰
