No! Don’t get rid of a favorite discontinued fragrance that you won’t get to in 5 years. I’ve got frags which are literally decades upon decades old. Keep it in cool dry place and you’ll be fine.
I'm going to re-evaluate my back up collection and see if they are still loves. The only regret I have in decluttering was a backup so maybe you're right. Thanks for the advice. I might have to rethink it....
Hi Carmen! Don’t feel bad about letting your child put on one spray of Angel’s Share. I was in Sephora and there was this very young boy going to town spraying Coco Noir on himself and his mom was too busy looking at the Gucci perfumes to notice!
Let your baby enjoy. He will always remember sharing your perfume ritual, and he will always remember that scent! That's lovely..... Love your choices! I need to start doing a tray. I don't restrict fragrances to season. But....I have enough now that it will be an excellent way to wear all of them. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! Yes! I love that he'll hopefully have those scent memories! I needed to get some of these in front me before the winter is gone! I can definitely neglect some and then they just don't feel the same in the summer.
I have a three year old boy and if he were into fragrance, I'd give him a squirt. With as much perfume as I wear, he probably gets some on him anyway. Don't fear judgement. It sounds like you're a great mom. ❤
Awh thank you! He's only into wearing that apple pie one! Of course my most expensive one 😩 😆 I bet our kiddos end up smelling like us at the end of the day anyway. Lol
My daughter, granddaughter (who turns 11 tomorrow), and I had a "fragrance Christmas", which we enjoyed very much! My 5.5 year old grandson watched...and I did give him some Vanilla 28 lotion and some Glossier lip balm just so he would have some fun but benign things. At any rate, New Year's Eve, my daughter bathed him, and let him pick out a fragrance to wear to bed. He picked out Eternal Oud from Lataffa and was happy as a clam. I think I'd rather have him learn to smell good and care about hygiene than not, if you get my drift...
You're right! I love that you got to share those sweet moments with your grandchildren! What a sophisticated little man for choosing and oud fragrance. Lol. So cute! I can just imagine him feeling so cool and grown with his nice scent. These moments with them are so precious!!
I really empathize with you about sensitivity. I'm sensitive to light, sound, crowds, pretty much everything. So I *require* that my perfumes cause me No Discomfort Whatsoever. Forget about, "wait until the dry down, it's magical!" Or "The opening is beautiful!" If it doesn't have me at first sniff and all the way through, I know I won't pick it up so I don't bother buying.
That's tough, sorry. Thats the level that I'm getting to also. I'm very sensitive to smells I'm general so I've gotten so good at detecting aromachemicals and they never go away to my nose even if they become more tolerable. I don't want to wear something tolerable. I also don't need to wait for the dry down if I dislike the opening. Mostly it's the opposite for me, the dry down is where is the problems come in with aromachemicals. So I don't think I will be doing anymore blind buying because of that. The notes rarely ever disclose aromachemicals but I can always detect them. In some niche brands it's unbearable! I have to seal the perfume in a bag and put it in another room until I can get it out of the house!
Hi, don’t worry, u r not being a bad mom. It’s cute that yr son wants 2 smell nice, & there’s no harm in it being on his clothes. It’s just a bit of fun, so let him enjoy it !!
I have hashimotos, so… I have adrenal/thyroid issues… Which causes me to have a sensitivity to lights and sounds(these past couple years)i absolutely understand you anytime you say ur sensitive to chemicals! I can def struggle with some smells but I also love perfumes! ❤ You have a wonderful January perfume tray and nothing wrong with a one spray toddler running around 😂
Sensitivities are difficult! People seem to think we are just being difficult but it can be so overwhelming. I'm only getting more Sensitive and I'm not too sad about letting some go because I also don't want to offend others with my scents. I still love so many perfumes so I'm happy to just dwindle down my Collection to my absolute loves!
I haven’t used my GFG since last year too. I am trying to use up my Sofia Vergara Love too, which I don’t think will be that hard as you said it really doesn’t last. That’s probably why I can tolerate how sweet it is. Spraying on lil man doesn’t make you a bad mother! We’ve all sprayed our kids at some point lol
Ooh coffee and whiskey with vanilla sky. I’ll try that. I have the spray, cream, and just got the cologne on major clearance last week (my only purchase during the semi annual sale was the cologne and Gingerbread spray).
I wore that combo yesterday!! I enjoyed it! Coffee & Whiskey along with Vanilla Sky. I saw they had it for super cheap at the sale and I wish I could've gotten it but it was sold out. 😔 I don't need it but I was hoping it was longer lasting than the spray.
Hey girl! Casablanca works really well for me (so far! Things are always changing in my nose as well 😅) I've heard so many good things about that Kenzo one! 😍❤️
I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets burnt tires from Pink Sugar, lol. I also get the spoiled milk from Fresh Cream but then it turns into oatmeal cookie. Sorry it’s just not my favorite, I like the Soft Suede flanker better. Thanks for the video.
The soft suade flanker is amazingggg. Something similar is Mac creme de nude. I just bought a backup of that one around black friday. They smell almost identical
Well you're going to be smelling amazing this January, girl!! So may goods ones here 🥰 A couple of these I haven't tried, and a couple of these don't work on me.. (like Vanilla Sky actually is cloying to me) 😅 I love hearing that you love it though! All of these look perfect for the season! ✨🩶
Girrrrlllll I never miss a video from you ❤ I always like to hear a fellow clothing sprayers opinion on fragrances. Also I noticed my nose getting more sensitive to stronger scents which I adore. I prefer loud scents but lately my nose has been like......not right now.
I was just telling Sunny that! I have been getting sooo picky! I'm almost afraid to declutter because what if it's a phase and I let these all go? I feel so picky right now and like I almost don't like anything 😕 I've become so sensitive to chemicals! You should answer the questions in my next video coming later today or tomorrow! Thank you so much for watching💗
@@almatoledo1608 half and half. There's a part of it that's delicious 😋 and then something else wasn't great. I think it was the spice or pepper. But the vanilla drydown was amazing. I almost got it at some point but I wasn't sure I would wear it enough to justify the price tag.
@CarmenScentrix I also disliked it and didn't understand the obsession but months after, I tested again and now it is a must for my cold winter days. I still smell burned ⛽️ sometimes but only if I put my nose to skin. In the air it is akin to a warm sweater :)
I just bought Kenzo Flower L'elixir. I didn't love it as much as I expected. I was surprised because it gets so much hype. Your backup is probably worth a kidney to some people...
It's definitely a perfume for Berry lovers in my opinion! It's very similar to Givenchy Hot Couture or even a bit like Prada Candy but add Berries and less Benzoin. 😉
Oh the hyped up Casablanca lol I remember it was my first purchase because of RUclips and all I smelled and still smell is diet apple juice 🧃 not even the sweet kind lol 😉 I love kenzo and I only spray once because I’m scared to finish it! You are going to smell 👃 yummy this month 😉
So you don't like Casablanca? I decided I'm getting rid of it 😕 because the last few times I've worn it I just didn't vibe with it. Lately I've been feeling so picky that I'm afraid I'll regret the things I'm letting go. Because I almost feel like I don't like anything right now!
I tryed Casablanca in store and I really got the nice apple,… , I wished it for my birthday ….but what I got later it was something strong,something bothered me….I tried again and again the scent, but now I have to sell it😢I can‘t wear it🙈
Same thing happened to me! I've seen a lot of people having a similar experience and then decluttering it. It has some aromachemicals that we eventually pick up on maybe. I even tried smelling it one more time after deciding to declutter it because I'm just surprised but still a NO!
Carmen what are your thoughts on D&G The Only One (original) and Chloe Nomade? I've had them in my carts for weeks but I swear these reviews on Fragrantica always makes me second guess my decision lol 😂
Between the two I would go for Chloe nomad! It is so beautiful with great projection, sillage and very long lasting. It is the perfect signature scent. Get it👍
It truly depends on your taste!! The Only One is a nice airy coffee/sweet perfume but a hint of voilet that I don't love. I have and I enjoy it but prefer to Layer it with Angel Muse because of the voilet, I probably won't repurchase. Chloé Nomad from what I remember has a very cool girl in the 2000s vibe. A touch of a unisex vibe and some patchouli. Very earthy and packs a punch. It's one that I may sample or buy in the future if it doesn't lean too Woody when I test it.
Hi i have the only one 2 i used to spray it in the store on my wrist and it was beautiful but the one i have o hardly smell it 😅 dmells linear snd bit stale😢
No biggie if you want your son to smell nice especially since your just putting on chlothes.when I was young,after my bath my mom would put baby colonge all over me.i always smelled so nice.😊

I think it’s adorable that your baby wants to smell like apple pie 😊 when he grows up that scent will be very nostalgic
I hadn't thought of the scent memories until a few of the comments. I love that we get to share that and he'll have those scent memories! 💗
Hi Carmen! Don’t feel bad about letting your child put on one spray of Angel’s Share. I was in Sephora and there was this very young boy going to town spraying Coco Noir on himself and his mom was too busy looking at the Gucci perfumes to notice!
Lol. He was going to be smelling like a sophisticated lady after that! That must've been fun on the car ride! Lol. Also I like his taste! Lol
@@CarmenScentrix I know right? I thought the same thing. A very advanced nose for a four year old! 😂
Let your baby enjoy. He will always remember sharing your perfume ritual, and he will always remember that scent! That's lovely.....
Love your choices!
I need to start doing a tray. I don't restrict fragrances to season. But....I have enough now that it will be an excellent way to wear all of them.

I am already jealous of your boys olfactory memories with his mama 🙂
Awh I didn't think of that. Hopefully one day he'll be reminded that he used to smell like apple pie 🥧 because of his mom's perfumes.
I love your perfume tray choices! They sound right up my alley and I’m glad you have some chopping block perfumes on there too. ☺️💕
I haven’t used my GFG since last year too. I am trying to use up my Sofia Vergara Love too, which I don’t think will be that hard as you said it really doesn’t last. That’s probably why I can tolerate how sweet it is.

I wore Angels Share and Gentle Fluidity gold yesterday and it was killer ❤
You layered those??😱 I need to try that ASAP!!
Good Morning ☕️
I layer my coffee & whiskey with my coconut real pie spray! It works well for the colder weather in my area!
That sounds like a delicious drink and I need to try it!! I have a BBW coconut cream pie and a perfume Coco cream perfume😋 I will definitely try it!
Ooh coffee and whiskey with vanilla sky. I’ll try that. I have the spray, cream, and just got the cologne on major clearance last week (my only purchase during the semi annual sale was the cologne and Gingerbread spray).

Your kids must be smelling great like their mama!
I'm pretty sure it's okay to put a little spray of perfume on your son. I think it's cute ❤

What😮 Vanilla Sky has a freshness to it that to me keeps it from being cloying. How funny how different things can smell to us. Lol
Lovely candle
Thank you!! It smells so good! It smells a but similar to Princess by Kilian to me. It's a soft marshmallow vanilla 💓

I’m going to finish my Choco musk this winter. I have less than half a bottle to go.
It's such a good one!! I can't believe the price! It lasts pretty good too!
Ooooh! I’m curious! 👀

I have baby cologne for him too! I used to put it on his jackets too. I love that baby smell!
Did I hear a cat? 😻 I wore alot of LoverDose & Hidden Fantasy
It was probably my son🤷♀️ no cat. I provide the cat energy here lol
Your son is becoming a Micro Francis K.
😆Right!! He might! He's pretty good at detecting notes!!
@@CarmenScentrix yes!!!! A great training for the future regardless!
Most worn perfume in December has to be hos hufflepuff. ❤😊
I've heard so many good things about that one!!

Lol. Maybe
