😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣 not wasting your life away wearing the fragrance. That's how I felt when I wore Donna Born in Roma intense 😩 just wasted an ENTIRE fragrance day😩
Oh wow!!! I'm even more intrigued to smell it now. I have a feeling I won't like it. I'm so surprised. I loooove Kilian fragrances and I looove the Kilian DNA. Kilian fragrances made me love Orange Blossom 😩😩😩
It's the When & Where info that you provide for me. So helpful and unfortunately rare for a lot of content creators to provide. Helping someone figure out the occasion, and the season is just as important as the notes, longevity, and projection. Thank you!
I haven’t tried it yet! I read the notes and kinda figured…. Orange blossom again 😅🤯. Thanks so much for the review Aisha. They make Billions from us in this industry so definitely return it Sis 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌❤️
Love this video! And I actually love this fragrance! I will be dowsing myself in it haha, I do think it doesn't project much, I think everything you said is accurate, but I love the honeyed facet! It stays sweet on my skin for a long time! 😄💕
I’ve never been a huge fragrance wearer/lover but decided it was time to be an adult and choose my scent. I really love the smell and it kind of clings to me. So I still have a nice soft dry down 10 hrs after putting it on. I get a lot of compliments especially from men. My, whatever he even is, will be outside by a fire not even within touching distance and will rave about how good I smell. But it is great having videos like yours especially if you’re not overly exposed or knowledgeable about different fragrances. Thank you for your content!
I really appreciate how much time you put into these videos and how many times you wear it before reviewing - it's really helpful and so much more informative than just a first impression 🙂 sillage and longevity are really important to me so I always like to know the full story. I smelt this in store and thought it was nice, but Kilian as a brand isn't my vibe (I adore and own Princess but all the others I think are overpriced for the performance) so I haven't been interested enough to consider buying it. But if it had stellar performance then I could be convinced! I thought you were going to say let down at the end - sounds like it's nice enough but ultimately doesn't offer anything new.
Thanks for the genuine & honest review. We want to love all of them, but the reality is that it’s not always the case. We have similar taste. I won’t blind buy this one. Thank you again for another great video.
Oh how I hollered when you said wasting your life away by wearing the fragrance 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m not a Killian lover but I do have a decant of this coming. I can’t wait to see what I think of it. For $275.00 I would be burning rubber taking that back to the store 🤣.
I appreciate your Love, Like, Letdown series Very helpful in the fragrance vetting process, also in determining one's sent profile or aesthetic. I think this is the first review I've seen of this fragrance, others have been previews.
I'm not much of a floral lover but I understand floral being used to support other notes so...I hadn't planned on purchasing this one anyway. Thanks for solidifying my thoughts! You're doing the Lord's work out here & saving these hard earned coins us fragrance lovers are dropping monthly, lol!
I appreciate your honest review Ayesha. The comparisons are very helpful. Looking at the price difference (huge) and performance (not much difference) between the Jo Malone and the Kilian makes one an easy choice over the other from a price and value perspective. It is incredibly frustrating when you have high hopes for a brand and their offerings and the fragrances don't meet expectations. Anything over the $200.00 range better be amazing. Thanks for your video! ~ Jenn
Smelled it yesterday. It definitely reminded of Love without the sugary sweetness. I wish Kilian didn't put orange blossom in this to differentiate it or present something new. I'm passing on this. I have Love Extreme and Zara's Fleur D'Oranger which is similiar too.
Thanks for your review. I agree with your thoughts. 👍For me it’s also a let down. 🙈😉😩No special smell, poor to moderate projection and sillage. I bought the fragrance directly from the By Kilian webshop and unfortunately I can’t return it. I can use it as a luxury toilet fragrance 😊👀😳
I knew it! I could tell by your reaction that you didn’t like it. Oh well, back to the store it goes. You look really pretty, by the way. Thank you for sharing!
Interesting to hear your thoughts about it. Personally on me it’s just a green love don’t be shy. I definitely agree on the fact that it has little sweetness. Definitely a spring summer fragrance because it’s light . I do like it but definitely not my favourite orange blossom perfume I collect scent in the LDBS scent family and this is the weakest contender
I totally get where you’re coming from. I really liked the fragrance aside from the sharp green note in the opening. I loved the honey vanilla dry down in my skin it was really sweet and yummy BUT the performance is AWFUL! I’m going to try to wear it more and see if maybe i’m going anosmic to it like i did with good girl gone bad. But it’s so unfortunate cause i actually love the scent but can’t justify the price if i can only smell it when my nose is to my wrist :(
I was waiting to get a sample or smell it in person before I got this…but I decided yesterday to just blind buy this lol. The notes sounded beautiful and I heard a few reviews…all positive and it sounded like one I would absolutely love. I’m watching your review as I write this and I’m really disappointed about hearing the longevity/projection isn’t that good! I had heard otherwise and I hope I’m not going to be disappointed like I was with TF Electric Cherry!!
@@SimplyAyesha I have a bad feeling after watching this, because I usually have the same thoughts as you I’ve noticed and am already extremely disappointed about the wear and projection…and you live in the same area as me! Like you, I hate returning beauty items, but I have a bad feeling lol! It’s on the way to me and I’ll definitely let you know
Hi... I sprayed this heavily in store... and was also given a sample. Just 1 day of wearing it, I realised how poorly this performed. I have used the sample one other time, and it was very easy to confirm that, this fragrance didn't work for me. Even the initial opening was weak. The notes are pretty hard to detect. Out of all the killian i have put my nose to. The is the most disappointing. I much prefer love dont be shy and forbbden gamesm Hope it works out for you though.
@@SimplyAyesha I wanted to tell you I tried the fragrance for 2 days and I agree with you…such a letdown and I hate that I have to return it!! It’s a beautiful scent, but the longevity i experienced was the same as you, and it reminds me so much of Memo Sintra (but that lasts all day on me).
" Life is too short for the fragrance that you don't like" 😂 haha, you are absolutely right! To be honest I like this fragrance, but I bought a sample to try so maybe I should wear it 3 or 4 times to find out if I need a 50ml bottle or not 🙂🙃
Hi Ayesha, I received a sample from a SA at Kilian New York. I did not like it and shared my thoughts with the SA. Somehow, I feel this fragrance is not It for most Kilian consumers 😊
Thank you thank you thank you. Need this! I'm soooo curious about it. I love Princess and Kissing, but I'm not fond of Love Don't Be Shy and about 4 others I've tried.
I won't be getting this. I already knew orange blossom was prominent, and I can only tolerate this flower when it adds something to the composition, but I do not want to smell it. This one really feels like a dud. Do you think they just released this for the sake of releasing a new fragrance? Kilian's perfumes usually have big personalities, whether you like them or not. Thank you for trying this out for us knowning you really didn't want to wear it anymore at some point.
I always appreciate this series of reviews from you, very honest and precise🤩🤩. I’m not looking to add another orange blossom fragrance but the review is highly appreciated👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
I tried it this past weekend. But it wasn't a true test as the sales associate put the body oil version of it on my skin to try. For some reason he didn't have a tester. I remember it being a "like" . I'll have to do a true test though for me to get a true feel for it.
@@SimplyAyesha neither did I until the guy put it on me. He felt bad that he didn't have a tester for me to try. So the next best thing he could think of was to let me try the oil version.
Baby Jesus, thank God I am not the only one, this is such a disappointing fragrance for me. The Okemos comes so predominant on my skin, and it smells a little bit like pee. 😢 Opening is beautiful and I love the sweet orange blossom, but it doesn’t last it becomes so just consent right away and for almost $300 for 50 mL is a big no 😢
😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂🤣 not wasting your life away wearing the fragrance. That's how I felt when I wore Donna Born in Roma intense 😩 just wasted an ENTIRE fragrance day😩
I hate that! I start saying, I should’ve never gave you a chance!😂😂
Oh wow!!! I'm even more intrigued to smell it now. I have a feeling I won't like it. I'm so surprised. I loooove Kilian fragrances and I looove the Kilian DNA. Kilian fragrances made me love Orange Blossom 😩😩😩

You’ll have to let me know what you think when you smell it.
I love the structure of your reviews! ❤ Thank you!

Nice! I’m glad you’re loving it! I wish I got more of that rich honey smell!
Killian is my favorite house but I am happy I waited to purchase this . I don’t think I will get this . Thanks for the review
Still try to smell it when you can, you may disagree.
I’ve never been a huge fragrance wearer/lover but decided it was time to be an adult and choose my scent. I really love the smell and it kind of clings to me. So I still have a nice soft dry down 10 hrs after putting it on.

Sprayed it on your child as tester?? That's so funny, perfect and cute! 😂😂😂 Thank your child for helping us out please! 💖

It’s a nope for me. 🤣 You’re always very fair in your assessments. Great job reviewing as always Ayesha!
Hi Ayesha! It’s ashamed how the fragrance was $265 when it launched. Now it’s $275. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this fragrance.
Wut? Lol. The price increaces on perfumes are getting out of hand!
@@tolikfox007 looks Kilian had a price increase on a couple of their fragrances
Thanks for the genuine & honest review. We want to love all of them, but the reality is that it’s not always the case. We have similar taste. I won’t blind buy this one. Thank you again for another great video.

Hey A… love the review. Thanks for always looking out for the GWORLS! I can scratch this one off my wish list.
Have a great weekend.
I have it & I mix this fragrance with a white Oud ( I get compliments everywhere I go )

i totaly agree about longevity! I LOVE this perfume, but just becousw it diesnt last its just dont worth the price, so sad..

Love the thoroughness of this review!! Every qs I'd have about this fragrance are automatically answered!👏🏾❤️👏🏾❤️
Thank you!
Great review. I am glad you made the similarities between the Jo malone Orange Blossom because I have the Joe Malone on my radar for summer.
Thanks for this. I don’t own any Kilian just yet but rolling in love and black phantom are on my list🥰
I have this one it opens up spicy don’t like the opening but I like the dry down but on my skin reminds me of love don’t be shy
Thank you for this review!
I layered this with valaya , and it was really a beautiful scent😊

I’m not really sure. This one just seems lazy imo.
Great review- I have similar thoughts about this one. I don't think that it smells like LDBS though, more like GGGB.
Happy Friday!!!! I'm getting a let down vibe from you....but I'll see if I'm right
I did try can’t stop loving and I guess not worth it for me
I always appreciate this series of reviews from you, very honest and precise🤩🤩. I’m not looking to add another orange blossom fragrance but the review is highly appreciated👌👌. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
Thank you!
Now how have I never heard of this one?! Lol. Guess I’ll pass though. Thanks for the review! I need to go smell some Kilian scents soon!!❤
Do you think this scent compares to nectarine blossom and honey by Jo Malone?
I don’t own that one. I have smelled it before and I think they are similar, but I’m not really in a position to really compare them.
I tried it this past weekend. But it wasn't a true test as the sales associate put the body oil version of it on my skin to try. For some reason he didn't have a tester. I remember it being a "like" . I'll have to do a true test though for me to get a true feel for it.

😆 You always guess right!
@@SimplyAyesha 😬😬 I knooooow! 😆
You should try rose oud it’s amazing
on the opening for me its grandma boring floral. but the dry down starting to get to me 👀
I love your earrings!
Thank you!
Love your earrings!
Thanks!
I'm still waiting to find a love from this house. They really bore me.
Ooooh no!! A let down!! Girl I’m cracking up!! 😂😂 Well now o know I know not to blind buy this one!!!
😆
Baby Jesus, thank God I am not the only one, this is such a disappointing fragrance for me. The Okemos comes so predominant on my skin, and it smells a little bit like pee. 😢
Opening is beautiful and I love the sweet orange blossom, but it doesn’t last it becomes so just consent right away and for almost $300 for 50 mL is a big no 😢
💯
I totally agree with you
I think a like…. But maybe not a super strong like.
I think it’s a let down!
Estee Lauder really dulls the shine of Kilian's fragrances...even Tom Ford's.
Love
Loved the sound of the notes. However a major let down for me. Poor projection, poor longevity. Poor quality
I say a like. Oh wow a let down! I could tell you didn’t really like it.
I’m gonna say…a let down😢
let down
Love Don’t Shy Extreme lighter? No it’s not
It is to me. I do have the older version of Love so keep that in mind.
@@SimplyAyesha the extreme is very heavy, I have both of them
This doesn’t smell that good to me Tfs
I could tell by the thumbnail it was a let down.
😂
Wow.
