    So even before I saw your fragrance collection I was going to say I can’t believe your channel is so new! You’ve become my favorite channel to follow. BUT now, I know it’s true when I saw Les Sables Roses!! I have several LV fragrances, but LSR is by far my favorite ! Again, love your videos !

    Love Le Labo Another 13. I worked with a client who was wearing it, and had to ask what she was wearing so that I could purchase it. I've been layering it with a new find, Louis Vuitton Matiere Noire. I also love Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade (very smoky, oudy). Since you like Celine Black Tie, I think you'll love Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir. I was working with a client this week who also wears it, and everyone on the sales floor kept stopping to figure out who smelled so good, and what they were wearing.

    I just got my first ‘nice’ fragrance (LV L’Immensite which was definitely a basic/safe choice) but there is 100% truth to how long a little bit lasts!

    I too was given a sample of De Los Santos and after wearing it out I had the most compliments ever! It quickly became my favourite and now it’s my staple scent! It’s such a rich, warm scent! I want to get Sellier too, but I do have Tobacco Mandarin from the Byredo extract collection. I feel we have the same scent style and if you love those woodier, darker, smokier scents too, that is also a gorgeous fragrance!

  • @BirdsAteMyFace904
    @BirdsAteMyFace904 9 месяцев назад +2

    Very nice collection! But what's worth mentioning, and it's maybe a little bit of a correction, is that wearing higher quality fragrances doesn't necessarily mean they'll project more or have better longevity. One of the determining factors for that is the concentration (cologne, edt, edp, parfum, extrait, attar, etc). Also, skin chemistry and diet/hydration play into this as well.
    Always sample as much as possible, find your vibe, get decants from reputable websites, and only buy bottles of fragrances you'll wear often. And be prepared for your smell preferences to possibly change every few years!

    I learned my lesson on blind purchasing a fragrance. (I’m looking at you Byredo Mister Marvelous) I really want a vanilla fragrance but have no way of sampling that Celine Black Tie. Right now my daily is Mojave Ghost.
    LV fragrances are great. Afternoon Swim for the summer. Le Roses Sables is definitely a great date night.

      instead of oud wood, buy hermetica dark oud, instead of dior sauvage buy hermetica redmoon. You can get way better perfumes for these „luxury“ perfume prices… You should start looking into niche fragrances.

    You gotta try out D. S. and Durga (based in NYC). Also a niche fragrance house with lots of interesting combinations. You might like Amber Kiso - dark, smokey, woody, incense. Amber Teutonic - woody, slightly citrusy, dark, amber. Burning barbershop - smokey, medicinal, dark. D. S. (Gold label) dark, floral, woody and slightly citrusy. Notorious oud - dark, medicinal, woody. Bow makers- resinous, woody, gasoline.
    Also lookout for Le Labo’s city exclusives during September. Mousse de chene (amsterdam), poivre (london), cedrat (berlin) arr the ones im working through

    Enjoyable, relaxed video. I would just disagree though that fragrances are "investments". An expensive commodity that diminishes away to nothing can't really be called an investment. Not being an idiot here, but as I've heard a few fragrance youtubers say this, I just thought I'd make that point. Cheers.

    Byredo is overrated af. I love the scent but the performance and longevity is so pathetic for the amount of money you pay. It's such a shame as I do own Mojave Ghost.
    Louis Vuitton on the other hand is crazy expensive but it's definitely worth it and it's awesome how you can refill it for cheaper. I own Imagination, City of Stars, Orage, and Ombre Nomade. They're amazing.
    Would highly recommend Amouage, Xerjoff, and BDK Parfums if you can. I'm also a big fan of Etat Libre d'Orange but they're not for everybody since they release some duds. You or Someone Like You is one of my favorites of all time though.
