    You are officially my favorite perfume you tuber. I can almost smell the perfume as your describing it, and j reackon I could type up any perfume and you would have done a review on it. Doesnt matter if it's $20 or $300, which is great because not everyone wants to or can afford to to buy MFK whenever they walk in to a store. So Thankyou for being inclusive and Thankyou for your endless videos. You re an absolute delight to watch, you don't ramble to much, you're so energetic. And you always make me smile. I hope all your effort is paying off in one way or another. You really do deserve it for all your hard work🤩

    I prefer Black Opium intense to the original Black Opium, and I also prefer Angel Muse to the original Angel

    My taste in perfumes has evolved so much over the years that I appreciate flankers now more than I ever have. I was always kind of like "why" when a new flanker would come out, thinking if the OG was so good, why a flanker? But now I'm like "yay, a flanker" that has more of this, less of that, sweeter, not as sweet, fruitier, more floral, etc. Flankers are so fun! But the downside is I spend more 💰💸 and have no space to put them 🤣

    I think Girl of Now Shine is way better than the original Girl of Now by Elie Saab. Maybe because of the pineapple and pear scent. It is definitely strong and longlasting.

    I absolutely love Hugo Boss The Scent Private Accord which is the most beautiful gourmand fragrance and prefer it to the original floral and fruity The Scent.

    Totally agree about Dolce garden. I think it should be it’s own separate scent rather than a flanker. I’d also say Si Passione is better than Si.

    • @aseelaj5360

      Agreed! I also prefer the Si passion intense over the normal Si passion

    I think the LVEB intensement is the one that’s the most different from the original. It doesn’t have the praline or patchouli the original has. It smells more simple. Raspberry & vanilla. I have it & I love ii . I also have the original and the L’eclat

    • @lunacat.
      @lunacat. 3 года назад +2

      I love the Intensement SO much, it’s one of the nicest things I’ve ever smelled. Honestly the original kind of smells like nothing to me, even though the notes look nice. I’m saving up to buy LVEB Intensement, I’m so excited! Do you still love it as much as when you first bought it?

    • @Danit.Talkscentswithme
      @Danit.Talkscentswithme 3 года назад +1

      @@lunacat. yes, although I’ve only worn it twice because it’s hot here now, I’ll spray it before I go to bed, just so I can smell it 😂♥️ not much because I don’t want to waste it . I saved up for that one too, my Mother’s Day gift to myself 😁
      You’re going to love it, I think

      @dmmice2344 Год назад +1

      I agree the intensement is much better than the original. Seems stronger in my opinion and for me that’s a good thing. The original only lasts a few hours on me and then fades to a very mild scent

  • @ethalinia
    @ethalinia 3 года назад +3

    I actually agree on most of these, and the others I don’t know but will check out soon, because apparently we have the same taste. L’Interdit Intense is amaaaazing, so classy :). Also, your make-up looks stunning in this video, that lipstick looks so good on you!

  • @ChrissyLove
    @ChrissyLove 3 года назад +7

    I agree on these! La Nuit Tresor A La Folie is also my favorite in the line (though Nude is a close second). I love its vanillic woodiness.

    Great topic! I love the red lip!! My preferred flankers are D & G Light Blue Intense, Mon Guerlain Intense and Narciso Rodriguez For Her Fleur musc over the originals. They smell completely different to me. Chanel Chance eau fraiche is another favorite over the original and the other Chance flankers.

  • @florindaborici5366
    @florindaborici5366 3 года назад +4

    I still prefer the original L'interdit EDP released in 2018 over the flanker. It's very sophisticated and elegant. It's very long lasting 8 hour +, very good sillage. Unsurpassable in my opinion ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Hey Soph ! Nice video, I liked it so much ! Thank you for your work !
    Btw, would you like to do a video about rice powder / rice steam perfumes ?? I love this note, it is soft, powdery, but also warm and comforting imo. I thought about this idea when I smelled "Kenzo Amour", which is a rice-vanilla perfume. It is SOOO beautiful, soft, vanillary, but warm, elegant as well. I love it. It has been realeased in 2006 I really hope it will stays buyable for so long, because it is on my wish-list for sure !😊

    You cheered me up - your smiling face is like a ray of sunshine 🌞. I prefer a flanker of Decadence called Decadence Rouge Noir, it’s more rounded and the sensual dry down comes pretty quickly; I think it’s discontinued. LVEB intense, also discontinued has whipped cream and nutty notes, very nice.

    I got a sample of absolutely blooming and find it to be so old lady I would almost call it vintage . the coach blush I agree with you about though. My 12 year old fell on love with it so I got her a full bottle but once in a while I wear it too. Very fresh and pretty and floral

    dolce garden is SO much nicer than the original dolce! I had a sample of it forever ago from a department store and I refused to try it because it had “garden” in the name, but one day I sprayed it on my wrist and WOW it blew me away, I ordered a big bottle right away!

    Although I love the original Eli Saab, I much prefer the Royal flanker!
    I recommended both to my mom but she gave the Royal to me after some time because she grew tired of how strong it was. And I then I started to love it even more, of course 😁
    But they're are totally different perfumes with barely no DNA in common...

    • @ethalinia

    I got a sample of intensement and will buy a full bottle for winter. It's a heavy smell . which I don't usually like but I have already gotten a full bottle of scandal by night for this winter and well 29 other perfumes for winter cuz that's my new favorite things. Anyways the intensement is a deep sweet lingering grown up raspberry with no patchouli (the most important thing for me). Can't wait to fill the house up with the smell of intensement this winter

    "Cassis" is blackcurrant. It's the only natural fruity note available in perfumery, and it's made not from the fruits but from the buds.

      Thank you for this video! For me Elie Saab Resort is like mixing the original Elie Saab Le Parfum with Bvlgari's Omnia Coral, because it has those juicy pomegranate and fresh hibiscus notes. Other flankers I prefer to their originals are Alien Fusion and Mon Guerlain Sparkling Bouquet.
