Hey Maria! You are cracking me up about the Elish mammogram bottle. I agree. Another Nebras type of scent is Soirée (love it). I have ophidian black Cherry, get the Oud in there so it’s different to me. Love that you share with your son❤
I remember someone saying the cherry one is a Guerlain dupe. I'm definitely most interested in that, and how lovely that your son shares some of your tastes!
Maria, I bought vanilla 28 about 6mths ago. Not impressed at all. I tested the other day and wow! Such a difference. I'm hoping the candy rock will do the same. Now the Khair I bought after the Candy and it smells better right now
The ONLY Kayali I’ve had luck with is the pistachio yum! And I was surprised! They usually don’t last on me at all! But that one rocks I have fallen for it. It’s like a vanilla perfume with a touch of creamy pistachio and it lasts! I did have to macerate a month or two ha
It’s so interesting how everyone smells and interprets things so differently. To me, Khair Confection and VCRS are about a 97% dupe and identical in the opening. I have both.
Have you tried Lattafa’s Angham or the Athena, which are both Burberry Goddess dupes? I know you love Goddess, so I’d be interested in your take on Angham specifically. I’ve only tried Goddess in store, but I’ve already almost gone through a whole bottle of Angham. (I gave the last part of my bottle to my SIL for her to try.) I feel it’s a more sweet, more vanillic version and I really like it.
So excited for these reviews! Confection, Minya, Ophidian Mango and Cherry are all on my list. I just ordered 2 from FragrancebuyCA, both from Frag World/French Avenue: Miraj Exclusif and Sweet Paradise. That's my allotment for this month, but I'm so excited to get them. Next month, I'll probably get two of the ones from this video.
You know who actually nailed it? Paris Corner sent out a PR kit with that fragrance and the other in that particular collection. The information in the PR kit told the influencers this particular fragrance was a dupe for Cheriosa 62. It also explained what the other was inspired by. She received those fragrances in PR. I assure you.
Hi Maria, I am a new subscriber from Atlantic Canada, love your videos and content. You are a class act! Thanks for all you do and must say you have a fabulous sense of humor! 🥰
@ Delicious! Compliment getters! I think the Banana Bliss is more of a spring/ fall scent for me, and Tiramisu Speculoos is a fall/ winter scent (I live in NJ, USA), and work on a military base. I compliments from men and women. Comforting, cozy, gourmand. I’ve had them for about a month now, and I expect they will be even better after they mature a bit.
I love Khair confection, prefer it over candy rock, especially after sitting! I Also have picked up ophidian black cherry, frenetic delicieuse from fragranceworld and sweet paradise from french avenue These are all amazing imo. Eclaire also came in..but she did not impress me and left my collection🙈
Is the La belle that Khair confection is being compared to “La Vie est Belle by Lancôme” or did I completely miss out on a new fragrance? 😅 🤔 💭 Someone please confirm lol.
Paris Corner makes amazing perfumes. Coincidentally, I picked up Paris Corner’s Ministry of Oud - Oud Satin today! It’s a jammy rose/violet scent which people say smells like MFK Oud Satin Mood. Never smelled the MFK version, so I can’t compare, but it’s a beautiful heavy and yet not too heavy rose and oud combo. It’s perfect for those of us who enjoy the profile without wanting to choke others around us out 😂.
Hi Maria! Totally unrelated but, is it safe to use perfume directly on skin everyday? Would love to know your opinion on whether its been safe to use on skin long term! I'd love to but concerned about the health bit! I absolutely love your videos, thank you ❤
That’s a great question. It’s technically a chemical as such it’s not the best just as hairspray make up, etc. the greatest for us that said it’s technically safe for skin and approved for contact on the skin. Bottom line is that if you’re worried about it, just spray it on your clothes. 😀
@@mariacollettlife I'm almost ecstatic to know that it's safe for skin because I so wanted to, and it's coming from you yaaaaaas ! Has it been okay for you to use it so far? I've read that for women especially hormone wise it could affect that a bit? Thank you so much! 💓💕
Both Confection and Minya are 99% dupes to me and both last and project so much better than their originals, which I also have. Prefer the Arabian versions across the board.
Yay woo! I must share my new one!! Arabic is a 5050 ya never know what you’ll get! I just got a dupe for vanilla powder! And it’s pretty close! It needs a bit of time and it will rock even more! Souvenir Blooming Bliss Afnan is the vanilla powder dupe and I think you might like it!
I usually just give them to family and friends…I will keep fragrances that I think are solid even though I don’t love them as a solid recommendation for someone that likes those scent profiles…like Khala may not be my style but it’s a super solid fragrance that I’d recommend …I keep them if that’s the case 😀
Lol 😂. I always have very good smelling fingers. It seems like I would get lucky sometimes but it’s usually fingers or face 😂. Thank you for sharing with us ❤
I bought Ajayeb Portrait about 3 months ago and all I am getting from it is burnt tires. It may not have been a good batch. I suggest anyone get a decant before purchasing.
I can't get with Jo Malone... Charging those prices for only Eau De Cologne concentration fragrances is robbery, in my opinion. They're never going to perform and they make it that way ON PURPOSE. They could very easily offer different concentration options, depending on customers preferences (Like Commodity does) but they want you to overspray, use more and run out faster. That's the whole racket!!! 💲💲💲
I love snakes as symbols of many things spiritually. Universally, the snake embodies the qualities of transformation, rebirth, and healing. At the core of the snake's symbolism lies the essence of transformation. In its ability to cast off its old skin and emerge anew, the snake exemplifies the art of metamorphosis and growth. Similar to the phoenix, but more witchy. 😻 🌲🐍🌳🐍🌲
I adore white amber..now I need to sniff that orange one. I have several white amber indie oils with that as the base. when I'm not in a deep resinous boozy mood I go to my white ambers, woody or airy. It makes me picture fairy sex. Lol
I finally got Barakkat Gentle Gold and its great!! Barakkat Satin Oud is already one of the best fragrances on the market and Gentle Gold is a great addition (Baroque Satin Oud is alright but not nearly as good.) The new Barakkat releases are supposed to be excellent, as well. 🩷
The dewy makeup look is EVERYTHING on you!!! Alright, now into the video.
😊 thank you!!
Literally LOL😂!!! “A woman that’s about to have a mammogram”🤣
🤣🤣🤣
You have the most beautiful eyes and you know how to enhance your beauty with makeup. Love it 🥰
Thank you so much!!
Paris corner & french avenue is STUNNING.
Totally!!
Hey Maria! You are cracking me up about the Elish mammogram bottle. I agree. Another Nebras type of scent is Soirée (love it). I have ophidian black Cherry, get the Oud in there so it’s different to me. Love that you share with your son❤
Yes it’s fun letting him smell stuff!!
This pink eyeshadow is everything! So gorgeous
Thank you 💖
Maria you always got godang pretty makeup ❤🎉
Keeping it classy is always the way to go. Like you say, it's subjective and based on our experiences in life.
Totally!!
I remember someone saying the cherry one is a Guerlain dupe. I'm definitely most interested in that, and how lovely that your son shares some of your tastes!
Yes, it’s fun to see what fragrances he gravitates towards!

Love Khair confection. It gets better every time I use it. Black cherry is getting better too. I enjoy it also.
It’s so interesting how everyone smells and interprets things so differently. To me, Khair Confection and VCRS are about a 97% dupe and identical in the opening. I have both.
Was just about to comment something similar! I found Confection just as sweet and pear heavy I love it😅
Hello Maria, This is an amazing haul. I’m considering purchasing the Cherry fragrance. Your makeup look is gorgeous. Thanks for the video ❤😘
Thanks so much!! Black Cherry is awesome! 😀

I think one of my friends has it so maybe I can borrow and do a comparison video
I love that Khair Confections. Already went through 1 bottle and bought a backup.
That’s awesome!!!
Love the hair up.
I like the packaging for the Ophidian line, but don't need/want any more of any of those kind of scent profiles.
So excited for these reviews! Confection, Minya, Ophidian Mango and Cherry are all on my list.

Let me know how you like them!

I really love your hair this way. You look great. 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks so much!
What lashes are you wearing? They’re so beautiful 😍
Kiss Demi wispies 😀
I’m so excited to try Ophidian Sweet Surrender because I refuse to buy that Eilish bottle 😆
I have a couple Paris Corner fragrances. My newest ones: Voux Patisserie, Banana Bliss and Tiramisu Speculoos. ❤️
Those are all ones I want to try!! What are your thoughts??? Spill the tea!! 💕
@ Delicious! Compliment getters! I think the Banana Bliss is more of a spring/ fall scent for me, and Tiramisu Speculoos is a fall/ winter scent (I live in NJ, USA), and work on a military base.

@@mariacollettlife don’t worry it’s coming too
I love Khair confection, prefer it over candy rock, especially after sitting! I Also have picked up ophidian black cherry, frenetic delicieuse from fragranceworld and sweet paradise from french avenue
These are all amazing imo. Eclaire also came in..but she did not impress me and left my collection🙈
My first newest release ME buys will for sure be Khair Felicity (silk santal) and Cake temptation by paris corner can't wait
I forgot to say mancera has one I have coming in called choco violette, with chocolate violet hazelnut bergamot Madagascar vanilla. 😍 I can’t wait
It’s beautiful!!
Is the La belle that Khair confection is being compared to “La Vie est Belle by Lancôme” or did I completely miss out on a new fragrance? 😅 🤔 💭 Someone please confirm lol.
Kayali rocl sugar is in my top 3 right now!! I want to try confection soo BAD but ik ill be so harsh

Thanks for weighing in!! That’s awesome!!
Is the scent in the Sol De Janiero EDP the same as Cheriosa 62?
I wish they would name them, instead of numbering them.
Yes
Yay woo! I must share my new one!! Arabic is a 5050 ya never know what you’ll get! I just got a dupe for vanilla powder! And it’s pretty close! It needs a bit of time and it will rock even more! Souvenir Blooming Bliss Afnan is the vanilla powder dupe and I think you might like it!
Thanks for sharing them!! 😀💕
I have the black cherry one and I love it😊😊😊bit special ❤❤different of T.F or Kayali😊nice dark cherry 🍒
Hi Maria, totally unrelated question. What do you do with the fragrances that don’t work for you? Love your content btw!
I usually just give them to family and friends…I will keep fragrances that I think are solid even though I don’t love them as a solid recommendation for someone that likes those scent profiles…like Khala may not be my style but it’s a super solid fragrance that I’d recommend …I keep them if that’s the case 😀
@ Makes sense☺️ Thanks!
Could you please tell me if there is a middle eastern perfume close to spellbound by estee lauder?
How was performance with Khayal? Compared to Valaya?
I’m not sure to be honest. I didn’t think to compare that part!
100% agree on the Eilish bottle 😅
I refuse to buy it for that reason.
🤣🤣🤣
Hi.. I love ophidian b cherry. Aptly described by you❤
You can even try cherry lust by flavia. It isn’t similar to black cherry, but hey it’s 🍒!
Lol 😂. I always have very good smelling fingers. It seems like I would get lucky sometimes but it’s usually fingers or face 😂. Thank you for sharing with us ❤
🤣🤣glad I’m not the only one!
I haven’t tried any of these but I’m leaning towards Khayal-because I do like freshies in warm weather.
Literally 5 minutes ago I ordered Khair confection! Keen to settle in and hear your thoughts!
You're going to love it! I think you'll be very happy with your choice!
A woman who's going to have a mammogram for the Eilish bottle 😂😂😂 That cracked me up 😅 Now I can't unsee it, but you're right 🙈
🤣🤣🤣
Your look is 🤩🤩🤩🤩👍🏿
Thank you!
I bought Ajayeb Portrait about 3 months ago and all I am getting from it is burnt tires. It may not have been a good batch. I suggest anyone get a decant before purchasing.
I’m not sure what to say. It’s possible that you are just not gonna like it! Hope it shifts for you though 💕
Please make me a Margaretta with the opening of Lemon Ginger and Mango iced in a tall glass please 🎉
Yes please!!
You look gorgeous 🌹🌹
the bottle “looks like a woman that’s about to have a mammogram” 😂😂😂😂 OMG Maria….😂😂
🤣🤣🤣

I love Valaya! Well the Afnan Mystique Bouquet dupe anyway. Now your review wants me order Khayal!
👍 👏
You can take the snake off
Really??? I’m kind of loving it now and want it as a bracelet!! 🤣
Ajayeb Dubai Portait wasn't masculine...? Not even a little bit.
I’m glad that you love it!
I adore white amber..now I need to sniff that orange one. I have several white amber indie oils with that as the base. when I'm not in a deep resinous boozy mood I go to my white ambers, woody or airy. It makes me picture fairy sex. Lol
I hate snakes and they is my reason not to buy those perfumes.Its a pity because it sounds like they smell great...
That cherry fragrance is ONLY cherry and incense. Be real
Fragrance is subjective, if you only get cherry and incense, that is entirely fine- that however doesn’t diminish my experience.
I finally got Barakkat Gentle Gold and its great!!
Barakkat Satin Oud is already one of the best fragrances on the market and Gentle Gold is a great addition (Baroque Satin Oud is alright but not nearly as good.)
The new Barakkat releases are supposed to be excellent, as well. 🩷
I’m glad that you love it!!
