From Navitus Kind Intentions is my favourite one👌👌🥳🥳so much so that I have ordered a back up bottle after receiving first one😂😂. I haven’t tried Ambrosia yet and this statement makes me to consider ordering a sample 🥳🥳
@@dizlondynu8478 I’ve been hearing wonderful things about Kind Intentions. I guess we’re opposite, I need to get Kind Intentions and trust me you’d love Ambrosia.
I’m so glad you tried the new version of note vanille and shared your experience. I purchased a sample awhile back after hearing your review. When my sample arrived I was so confused because I wasn’t getting what you were. Then I saw people say they are different. I’m glad you tried them both for us! Thank you for your honesty always!
I absolutely appreciate your reviews and appreciate your honesty and descriptive way your able to explain and break down the scent compositions and how something smells. We do not have the same scent profile but i watch you obsessively because i learn so much about what i may or may not like myself. Thank You :)
I LOVE the idea of this series, Anne!! Brava!! Im currently on a self-imposed perfume-buying-ban BUT when I’m back to my old ways I really want to try Gourmand Coquin and Commodity Gold. Also, for anyone who doesn’t believe the claim that Guidance lasts after the wash…it literally does. Once you’ve sprayed Guidance on clothing, it stays there 😂
I just smelled fragrance du Bois oud Jaune intense for the first time and you are right. Everything you said about this fragrance is dead on amazing and I am in love! 🥰
The first Guerlain fragrance I ever owned was Guerlain Terracotta! OMG!!! I have never smelled anything like this, to me it’s in a class by itself. When I smell this on my skin after it dries down, I kid you not it takes me to another place with each smell! Some Guerlain perfumes are like this, for lack of a better word, magical!!!
Awesome video! I love the time and care you put into describing each scent, and bc you’re are one of the most articulate (and smart) on YT, I really appreciate how you talk about your biases and preferences in all the various notes. You’ve inspired me to blind buy a couple of these recommendations!❤️ Please do more🤩
I agree with Ambrosia Imperiale, such a sexy banana, 😁🍌, it’s right beside my Babycat bottle and the dent is even greater than my Babycat dent, I couldn’t stop wearing it! After months and months of testing Guidance, I finally fell in love with it, and it’s my most complimented fragrance. From hate to BIG love, and I would have never thought. I’m glad I decided to test it several times, so glad I did not give up on it. I will definitely get the bottle when I’m done with my decant.
Thank you so much for going the extra step and ordering the sample of Note Vanille current version! I really appreciate it since I was one of the ones who commented on the last video. I knew there was no way it wasn’t reformulated bc the description of the cube bottle never matched to what I would experience in the newer one 😢
Hey Anne, great video as always! 😊 Mabey with the "new" Note Vanille it's the same with Kayalis Vanilla 28 - in the beginning the juice is also more Floral and lighter in colour and as the days go on the liquid gets super dark and loses the floral notes. Maybe it depends more on how old the juice is than the batch - we will never know 😂
Anne, thank you so much for the instructions for Gourmand Coquin. I sent a message last night and the bottle has already been shipped. Steven was so wonderful
I just love your explanations on how certain fragrances smell, and for me they are right on the money!! Recently picked up morn to dusk, and tocca Colette and they are beautiful and exactly how you described!! So many good here!!!❤
Anne! You must try layering Ambrosia Imperiale with Bal D'Afrique.... it is heaven! Also hoping the other Mind Games fragrance you're testing is Blockade!! :D
Amouage Guidance is such a pretty fragrance. I had to stop myself from wearing it because I was going through the bottle too fast. People literally chase me down when I wear it. I’m adding Minuit et Demi to my fall fragrance list🤦🏾♀️ Ok, let me go find a sample of Iris Malikhan. Thanks for sharing. girlie.
AI the Great Navitus Ambrosia Imperiale yesss love it!!! I also love the Fragrance du Bois Minuit et Demi! Have them both from two of my favorite You tubers!!!
Amouage Guidance is my most complimented fragrance this year! It is absolutely beautiful!!! Just followed your steps to order the Gourmand Coquin! Wish me luck! Birthday is in October and that would be a real Halloween treat! ❤
Just found this video and took special note of your Note Vanilla analysis. I recently purchased and was caught very off guard at first sniff. From everything I had heard, I expected a much deeper, warmer, boozier vanilla scent and was extremely perplexed/disappointed when I tried this new version. If I had known this had been reformulated (I thought it only had new packaging), I would not have purchased. I plan to use this up now by layering with other products since, on its own, I don't really enjoy it.
Oh that was a fun video! I wore a sample of Dulce Diablo for the last 2 days and I love it. My sample of Gourmand Coquin arrives tomorrow. This is going to be such a difficult decision! Thanks Anne for great content!
Great idea for a video! I agree about Guidance; it's astonishingly well blended and totally unique! I wasn't loving it when I first tried it but after 20 minutes, I could not stop sniffing it! x
Great video, Anne - Love this idea! I finally gave in and bought Amouage Guidance. There is not one day I don’t wear this and I get asked what I’m wearing or wow something smells so good! Compliment magnate like no other! You mentioned you layer this- any other layering options you recommend with this fragrance? I always trust your judgment! Thanks! Keep up the great videos! 💕
I love Ambrosia imperial ! My only regret was not ordering it during the preorder. I ordered a sample from Etsy first and I made my purchase for the full sized bottle last night ! I wasn’t expecting to like it cause I HATE banana fragrances
I sampled Guidance for the first time yesterday and I wanted to cry of how good it smelled. It was so intoxicating. I couldnt stop sniffing myself. Definitely full bottle worthy for me 🩷
Thank you so much for all your investigation and hard work to produce informative, interesting, entertaining and quality videos! I believe it is a labor of love and I thank you for saving me from fragrances that I wouldn't know that I didn't like but because of you and your comparison to different fragrances with like notes.. I could go on and on❤
Thank you! Although I own a good amount of designer fragrances, I own/love 1 for a lot of the houses, which is why they weren't heavily featured in this video. I can definitely film a top designers video in general though :)
Please do another video and include your favourite perfume from Parfums De Marley, MFK, Initio, Room 1015, Xerjoff/Casamorati/Sospiro, Lattafa, Swiss Arabian, Kilian
Hi Anne! Question: I have both Ambrosia (for over a month now) and Amorous Intense (for 2 weeks now) -both are straight up alcohol! How long should these be macerated or matured?? I’m so disappointed coz I can’t enjoy them right away 😢 Did you have the same issue? I feel like I’m the only one NOT enjoying these two.. 😢
"Leathers that pull animal like are not my vibe. Why would I want to smell like an animal? I want to smell like I shower, thank you." - Anne Lauren . Lol this one I totally agree.
amazing video Ylang in Gold was my second niche but to me it didnt smell creamy or tropical or vanilla at all just very mature and stinky heady floral on me but this was over a year ago so i may need to sample it again now that my nose has matured. Minuit et demi has been my fall winter going out dressed up fragrance but it isnt sweet enough for me. I havent tried iris malachite but it sounds like how i keep spraying bdk vanille leather to decide how i like it. i sold my guerlain coquin because i needed money but love it so need to repurchase it. I havent tried Guidance yet i need to!
Have you ever smelled « Rima XI » by Carner Barcelona? I don’t remember if you ever talked about it but if not I honestly think you would like it! It’s a gorgeous spicy woody vanilla scent like we both love!
I blind bought partial bottle of the new Note Vanille bottle. I was so dissapointed, thought it was going to be just what I like. To me the new formulation smells oldschool. Like Chanel nr 5 with some touch of vanilla. Majestic Green to my nose smells like cardamom soap. Also a blind buy. But there is something that I truly dislike. It is creamy and smooth, ir truly reminds me men’s cardamom soap that is really buttery. Iris Malikhhan smells like Italian Leather from Navitus and Copper from Comme De Garcons. Since my Iris Malikhan had a performance issue, Copper was my pick of this scent profile. For the price.
Omg i have "guidance" as well but i blind buy this when saleslady sprayed on me & i like it.. but when i have it, i don't like it until its totally drydown (3hrs) but i dont hate it.
Anne! What is your thoughts on Gypsy Water now? I only got a 1ml sample and couldn't really get a good feel from it. Now that your collection is so large, do you still think G Water is worth the $$$?
I believe that I will always adore G Water! It is one I overspray though, so I can understand not getting the full experience from 1ml. Because of it's popularity, there are a lot of fragrances that "vibe" with it, some of my favorites being Commodity Gold and Tocca Colette, but they are a bit quieter than G Water in my experience, although more affordable, so it depends on what you'd like to go for if you enjoy the profile. When I run out of G Water, my next purchase will be Les Soeurs de Noe Call Me Iris, they are very similar! So when I own that I'll see what I prefer out of the two. Taste is subjective though, so it depends on the person if something is worth the $ to them :)
I have already bought 3 bottles of Majestic Green, I am afraid that it will disappear from the shelves and I will not be able to buy it anymore :D Minuit et Demi, soooo pretty, but the longevity on me was awful :( For this price? Nope. But I love the scent.
oh wow! 😆❤️ It's such a lovely new addiction to the line! Ah that's such a bummer to hear! Luckily I get good performance, but if you don't, totally understand why it wouldn't be worth it at that price!
I would love for you to sample and test Beaufort London. Ultra masculine and ultra smokey. I would love to hear your review. BTW: Great Job on the channel 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Great video! I have the note vanille in the new bottle and I feel like I don’t get any floral or soapy notes but it actually smells as you describe the original cubed one so maybe you’re right and they have changed the formula recently. I saw majestic Green at Zara recently and passed it over, so pissed at myself because sold out online 🤦🏽♀️
I was so disappointed when I smelt the new version in the Jovoy boutique in London... Watered down sugar-floral water. Sounded nothing like the deep, rich version described on reviews with the old packaging. Strong pass for me.
Hi Anne, I'd really value your ideas around why you think Baraonda by Nasomatto gets so little love in frag-comm (and on RUclips in particular)? It's in line with all that's so cooed over: All the Queens Men by F &M; Angels Share by By Killian; Rivalite Imperiale and so many other woody boozy rum, vanilla, toasted coconut & tobacco type fragrances. I'm genuinely curious as to why this one is ALWAYS left unmentioned by almost everybody on RUclips. What do you think? There must be something highly objectionable about it in one respect or another which hordes of fragrance lovers with relevant knowledge agree and connect on. Hmmm. Poor little Baraonda, always a bridesmaid.... 😕. PS= This was such a good idea for a video! PPS= For anybody in the UK wanting to order Gourmand Coquin from Place Vendome, they do not ship to the United Kingdom. I was very disappointed to have read the email sent to me from the store itself and found it bizarre. I've ordered fragrance from European countries many times and this was startlingly odd information. I'm crushed. I'd love a bottle.
I think Baraonda is a fantastic fragrance! To me, the whiskey smells sweetened with honeyed fruits (although not listed), so for that reason it isn't 100% me, but I recognize that it's very well done! So unfortunate to hear that Place Vendome doesn't ship to the UK!! ☹️
Oh yes, more of this, please. This was fun! Commodity Milk Expressive OR Bold…. That stuff lasts HOURS AND HOURS, and it doesn’t come off my clothes after a wash either. Lol I wish the Gold lasted like that. 😂
The old Note Vanille is way more boozy, the new one is more mature, powdery, and floral. They are different. They changed the formula and they should just come out and say it. We aren't dumb nose-blind fools
I was so surprised when I tried Note Vanillee. I usually love the fragrances you recommend, especially the vanilla ones, but this was just so MEH... I could barely smell it off of my wrist. It was like a very cheap vanilla candle with a little bit of flowers and a drop of booze. It must have been the newer batch O.O
Wow Anne! For Ambrosia to be your # 1 from Navitus 😍 it’s so good.
From Navitus Kind Intentions is my favourite one👌👌🥳🥳so much so that I have ordered a back up bottle after receiving first one😂😂. I haven’t tried Ambrosia yet and this statement makes me to consider ordering a sample 🥳🥳

Happy to help! ❤️
I can't weigh in on lots of these houses but
Amouage - Bracken Woman
Zara- Rich Warm Addictive
Guerlain - Insolence
❤
You're absolutely right. She nailed Ambrosia imperiale. I'm in love!
Yes please keep making these... and even a video about the ones you only own 1 bottle from that brand. Would love to see that also! 😍
You're only the 2nd non Blk person to review Ambrosia Impérial. Its a masterpiece. Thank you for including us.
She did a phenomenal job!! 💛💛

You told the whole truth about Ambrosia imperial. That trail is 🔥Perfect date night fragrance.
yesss 👏🏼👏🏼
I agree Minuit Et Demi was needed and the best from the house IMO.
They needed that sexy fall gourmand!

Thank you so much Melissa! I'm so happy to hear that!! 😄❤️
It was a four-month wait for Gourmand Coquin, but totally worth it! Smooth is a great description. It’s also so classy!
It really is! 🥹❤️
Anne! You must try layering Ambrosia Imperiale with Bal D'Afrique.... it is heaven! Also hoping the other Mind Games fragrance you're testing is Blockade!! :D
When Ambrosia arrives def gonna try this!
oo I'll have to try that! Blockade to me smells like Aventus but with mango instead of pineapple, so it wasn't for me 😝
Amouage Guidance is such a pretty fragrance. I had to stop myself from wearing it because I was going through the bottle too fast. People literally chase me down when I wear it.
I’m adding Minuit et Demi to my fall fragrance list🤦🏾♀️
Ok, let me go find a sample of Iris Malikhan.
Thanks for sharing. girlie.
Oh I bet! 🤩 Thanks for watching!
AI the Great Navitus Ambrosia Imperiale yesss love it!!! I also love the Fragrance du Bois Minuit et Demi! Have them both from two of my favorite You tubers!!!

How about Kind Intentions? I’m over the hills in love with it❤, so unique, and that moss🙈stunning
I wasn't a fan of it, but I'm glad you've found a new favorite!
Try memo Italian leather. When I smelt Iris malikhan the first time I immediately thought of that fragrance!
Omg just got Gold Expressive and LOVE IT!!!
Such a pretty soft vanilla 💗💗
Wonderful description of Guidance!
thank you!
Only went and ordered Zara Majestic Green straight away ❤
🙈❤️ I hope you enjoy it!

So right with Tonka Nutmeg-- Iris Ambrette is a knock out, too.... Tonka Nutmeg is a top 5 scent of mine- Dior Homme Parfum-#1
I KNEW it would be Gourmand Coquin! 😂
The best in the game when it comes to chocolate imo 😁😁!
I love Ambrosia imperial ! My only regret was not ordering it during the preorder. I ordered a sample from Etsy first and I made my purchase for the full sized bottle last night ! I wasn’t expecting to like it cause I HATE banana fragrances

I'm so surprised you like Ambrosia Imperiale bc I find it sweet and totally a banana gourmand. I love it too with that saffron!
ah it's gorgeous!

Wow!! It really is that good 😩❤️
Great video idea! ❤
Thank you!
I just ordered ylang in gold. I hope I ordered the right one, there was a couple of different versions.
Hi Anne! Question: I have both Ambrosia (for over a month now) and Amorous Intense (for 2 weeks now) -both are straight up alcohol! How long should these be macerated or matured?? I’m so disappointed coz I can’t enjoy them right away 😢 Did you have the same issue? I feel like I’m the only one NOT enjoying these two.. 😢

"Leathers that pull animal like are not my vibe. Why would I want to smell like an animal? I want to smell like I shower, thank you." - Anne Lauren . Lol this one I totally agree.

I love Guidance.
Great collection

The Zara one is 50% off now! Only $20!!!
Would love another favorites video.
Have you ever smelled « Rima XI » by Carner Barcelona? I don’t remember if you ever talked about it but if not I honestly think you would like it! It’s a gorgeous spicy woody vanilla scent like we both love!
I have! It was a like for me, I'll have to revisit it! ☺️
Curious if you like anything from Dior's private line..😌
I truthfully have yet to find a love within the line 🙈 but there's a couple that are "likes" for me
I blind bought partial bottle of the new Note Vanille bottle. I was so dissapointed, thought it was going to be just what I like.
To me the new formulation smells oldschool. Like Chanel nr 5 with some touch of vanilla.
Majestic Green to my nose smells like cardamom soap. Also a blind buy. But there is something that I truly dislike. It is creamy and smooth, ir truly reminds me men’s cardamom soap that is really buttery.
Iris Malikhhan smells like Italian Leather from Navitus and Copper from Comme De Garcons. Since my Iris Malikhan had a performance issue, Copper was my pick of this scent profile. For the price.
18:30 that reasoning and mindset is how I feel about animalic, fecal or dank fragrances!
Minus that incredible sass!😂😊
😅😅❤️
Thanks for sharing the Information....Good Video
COQUIN for sure 😍♥️😍 Guerlain 🎉🎉🎉
the best!! 😆
Omg i have "guidance" as well but i blind buy this when saleslady sprayed on me & i like it..

Vanilla turns brown with time, so frags with a lot of vanilla turn to brown with time.
Yes, I explained that in the video :)
Have you tried the brand by Rosie Jane? Their scent Lake is similar to G water 😊
I have tried several from Rosie Jane! But not Lake :)
Have you tried anything from De gabor? Interested to know your opinion
Only Stardust Musk which I wasn't a fan of, but I do have a sample of Darling that I need to test!
I actually love ylang in gold nectar more than the OG.
They have gourmand couquin in stock. I emailed them last week and already have a bottle on the way.
🤩🤩 that's amazing!!
Oh my goodness! I emailed them on Monday the 19th. My fingers are crossed.

I always do. Whenever I feature a new fragrance, and I received it in PR, I always mention that it was gifted
Hey Anna have u tried Lattafa and wud you recommend?
Yes, I think Khamrah is very good! I have a review here :) ruclips.net/video/TbHtqbA4LIM/видео.html
So fun!!!
Oh yes, more of this, please. This was fun!
Commodity Milk Expressive OR Bold…. That stuff lasts HOURS AND HOURS, and it doesn’t come off my clothes after a wash either. Lol I wish the Gold lasted like that. 😂
Thank you! Will do! ❤️ Yeah, the performance on the original Gold could use improvement
The old Note Vanille is way more boozy, the new one is more mature, powdery, and floral. They are different. They changed the formula and they should just come out and say it. We aren't dumb nose-blind fools
Has anyone tried Julianna’s version of Gourmand Coquin as a bandaid for the waitlist?
I have an in depth review here! ruclips.net/video/-1fJME-c1Jo/видео.html
I was so surprised when I tried Note Vanillee. I usually love the fragrances you recommend, especially the vanilla ones, but this was just so MEH... I could barely smell it off of my wrist. It was like a very cheap vanilla candle with a little bit of flowers and a drop of booze. It must have been the newer batch O.O
the new version doesn't hold a candle to the original 😞
Whyyyy does that Guerlain fragrance have to be so pricey?! 😢
Anna, are you a Taurus by any chance?
Sagittarius :)
I agree with Ambrosia Imperiale soooo good 🍌🍌💛💛
She did an incredible job! 👏🏼💛
