Just because I don't like a scent that other people like or love, I wouldn't call it overrated. I love Delina, BR540 and Black Opium and don't really care if people think these are overrated or overhyped.
There's a difference between overrated and overexposed. Overrated- Not as good as you think and the brand is skating by on it's reputation. Overexposed-You experience it so often you just take it for granted.
I agree. Masterpieces like BR540 and Delina are over hyped, but deserve their outstanding raves. I still am the only one in my circle that wears Delina, but I smell Baccarrat Rouge dupes quite often.
So if Delina and aventus were the “holy grail” at one time what has taken their place as the king/queen of niche fragrance currently? I feel they have to be dethroned before being considered over hyped.
I have around 80 bottles, and I have Aventus, Sauvage, and BR540 in my top 5 lol. Delina is by far my number one favorite woman's fragrance. For me I see these fragrances in the community mentioned a lot, but I rarely see people in real life wearing colognes outside a bottle or two they picked up at the local Macy's. Wear what you enjoy!! :)
Though I really, really like Delina, as does my partner, I can’t say that I personally find whole package of PDM or the juice to be of really supreme quality. Though that might be a bit controversial to say, I am quite picky and I still really enjoy it and have some beautiful memories with the times I have worn Delina. These days Delina is everywhere and for me, I like to wear unique fragrances that are exclusive to me and that those around me associate with me alone. Every time I walk through Dubai Mall I pass at least 4 people that smell like Delina… and don’t get me started on Baccarat Rouge 540 😅
@@tiggi5602 it is not only about the smell. It is about the ingredients used. One of the few brands really worth the price is Xerjoff Naxos and all amouage except reflection man
Aw, I love La Vie Est Belle. I find that if I spray a mist cloud and then walk into it, it's not too strong, just very pretty. It is definitely a compliment-getter if used in moderation and you don't choke someone out. I don't understand all of the flankers, either, except maybe the Intensement (although the original is already very intense haha). I like the Soleil Cristal scent, too, but I REALLY love the bottle 🤭. Bottles are probably more important to me than they should be.
RIGHT? I do the exact same thing with la vie est belle. Cause my bottle was almost empty but I got sick of it and didn’t want to wear it anymore. But now I spray a generous mist cloud and walk into it and IT IS MAGICAL and I receive so many compliments! Not as sickly syrupy sweet
Hi Demi! I saw your video from many years ago about your eating disorder and your honesty was so powerful to me, it was a message I havent really seen anywhere else. Then I found out you review perfumes and I love perfumes, I like very clean ones though, that just smell like one flower, like Jasmin Kusamono by Armani Prive, and then I like to maybe mix them so there are a few scents together. I was wondering, do you know of a smoky, earthy and powdery perfume with a clean scent that could be good to mix with others? Something that smells as deep dark and powerful as possible, but subtle at the same time if that makes sense. I prefer clean perfumes because I am hyper sensitive and I have a very heightened sense of smell, and I find most perfumes to be just too much of everything
Love was and is a masterpiece in my humble opinion. It’s the one that started the hype for this DNA but honestly I don’t think Sintra/ Oriana came close to Love. Both of them have a very sharp neroli opening that kinda puts me off, whereas Love is very rounded, very well blended and you don’t notice that sharpness any where in the fragrance! It’s very cocooning and warm, absolutely amazing and Love Extreme is even better 😅
I agree, I tried Oriana because it has the same notes, but its too powdery to me. Love is so warm and feminine, my only problem is that it doesn't last very long.
I love br540 along with many others from the line patin, apom,grand soir etc . I can go high and low as long as the quality is there. However, lol, with that said, dossier’s version of br540 (ambery saffron) is a slightly better version. Less burnt caramel more saffron and longevity. I recommend it for anyone who can’t afford br540 but loves it. And I recommend it to anyone who feels br540 doesn’t stay on long enough which some say. Don’t always buy into the hype of the original. We’re brainwashed sometimes to feel like we belong if we have the original. Sometimes inspirations can be better…
I also love Ambery Saffron and went through 2 bottles before I finally bought the original. I'll continue to buy the Dossier so I can bathe in it and wear it more often.
I absolutely agree with Aventus. Though I do absolutely adore the fragrance and it smells magnificent, I see absolutely no outstanding quality of the fragrance that makes it worth the $569 that you would pay for a 100 ml on fragrance net right now. I believe you can get fragrances that are just as good for a fraction of the price. I see Aventus more as a status statement than anything else
8.4 oz for 695$ at Bloomingdales. That should last a long time haha. I have clothes from months ago that still smell like creed the quality of the juice is next level. Definitely can get some good colognes for cheaper which are some of my favorites, But creed really is the Ferrari of the colognes
In my opinion, I think alot of these are masterpieces and are not overrated maybe overhyped.but the way they were made no one can touch them or dupe them 100%.loved seeing your volg to oman,it looked like a great experience ,I would love to go one day.❤
B540 is just over worn as much as CK 1 (aging myself) that use to make me SICK . Delina I don’t find people wear it out here but B540 is everywhere soccer pitch to Whole Foods everywhere
I agree with both statements…I layer with 540 and Delina now. CK1 I purchased along with Dior Poison last year, for sentimental reasons “70’s college, wild days”
Je ne dois pas être tout le monde car je déteste Delina!🤣 La plus grande déception pour un parfum j'en attendais tellement. La qualité du jus est là ça tient des heures et des heures mais vraiment je n'aime pas du tout l'odeur 🤷
Love is amazing! I think the problem is the hype, not the fragrance. I’ve got mine over 6 years ago and this perfume got me into niche fragrances. I don’t like sweet fragrances, but this one is amazing. I am always confused when people say it smells sickly sweet and like syrup or whatever. The one I have, and mind you it’s the old formulation, is so well blended, there is nothing clashing, screeching and sickening about it. I’ve tried most of perfumes from Kilian, but Love is still a masterpiece for me. We all have different opinions and preferences, I think if it wouldn’t have been for the hype, people would’ve appreciated more this scent. They would’ve discovered the scent on their own. There wouldn’t be any pressure to love this scent, no expectations. And for those like me who immediately loved it, it would have been this amazing hidden gem of a fragrance.
I discovered Baccarat Rouge 540 and Delina AGES ago because of you!!!! And I thank you from the bottom of my heart! I have so many wonderful memories now tied up in the two, that I will always have them in my collection and will always want to wear them. They are gorgeous! Hyped up, yes, I wish people would shut up about them so that I can still be the only woman I know wearing them! You are correct.... these are all victims of their own success.
Aventus has not been the same starting in 2014, when IFRA regulations (?) had them remove the oakmoss, birch tar and other banned aroma chemicals from this previously great fragrance.
Get Meliora instead of Delina, it’s the best PDM for woman in my opinion, my gf owns delina and oriana too and they’re good, but meliora blows me away every time
I totally agree with Baccarat rouge evaporating. I only wore it on few occasions but the result in my bottle looks like I wear it everyday! Now it’s making sense 😢
I bought my wife La Vie Est Belle and Delina too but the one she prefers because she gets the most compliments is one you used to recommend. La Nuit Tressor. She gets more compliments with it than any of the niche or designer ones she has.
Just like you I don’t really like La vie est belle but I’ve smelled the Soleil Cristal version and really like it. I consider buying it as it is quit good comparing to the other ones from this line I think
I only got around to testing delina a few weeks ago cause I'm not big on rose scents. And it was disappointing to me for how populair it is 😂. Expected it to be mind-blowing. I do however love Sintra but never smelled ldbs.
Same here. I am not into the rose accord thats why it was not surprise for me but i had to try because it is everyone's favourite. It is not a winner for me.
I just never could see all the fuss about Sauvage. I guess its that macho image it has and Depp being the face of it also. To me, it smells suffocating and yes, too synthetic.
I never ,ever liked La vie est belle. I cant understand what other people smell . Although i buy it as a present to my mother because she likes it so much. I still wonder what made it so popular.
Black Opium is one of those ones that really grabbed me when I first tried it. I've been craving it but not wanting to spend the money. No dupe I've bought has compared. I have another on the way from the house of Alhambra. I guess it's okay with me that a lot of people don't like it. I tend to wear fragrances primarily for me anyway.
Love your videos, as always!! Sort of happy you mentioned Baccarat Rouge evaporating because I feel the same thing happened to me! I used it but not enough to finish the bottle. 🤷🏽♀️
Beautiful dress. I really like a girl that likes to rock a rich blue. I also have actually never purchased Sauvage. It's okay, but never bought it to this day. I actually prefer Elixir, which I think is quite nice and is firm in its power and identity. A little bit goes a long way with that one. It's a great fragrance when it is discovered in the air.
I love that flanker of La vie et belle that you mentioned, it's coconutty . Can't stand delina but I like atomic rose which somewhat a bit similar to my nose minus annoying notes;
You look amazing in this video! I just ordered a sample of Minuit et Demi btw, I can’t wait to get my nose on it. I wasn’t a big fan of Delina but I do have a sample of exclusif coming my way too. I’m not betting on loving it but I figured it was worth a shot. I recently picked up Exalte by Funmi Monet and someone says it’s delina exclusif mixed with macera roses vanille. I’d love to hear your thoughts on it, especially from another Fragrance content creator 💗
Love the vids Demi! Though I don't feel like you actually made a point on why Aventus was overrated though in your monologue. If anything, you kind of outlined why it was so spectacular and how it's been duped and even Creed won't top it. Therefore surely that means it's not overrated?!
La Vie Belle smells like nothingness to me. Like when you have sniffed too many perfumes at a perfume shop and cant differentiate between al the smells and al you smell is the same thing.
The idea that “everyone” wears a specific fragrance is delusional. Most men don’t wear any fragrance whatsoever, if you like Sauvage or Aventus then wear it because they are fantastic scents. Don’t buy the 🐂💩, don’t ever fool yourself into liking or disliking things because of what other people think. Do you.
Love Don’t Be Shy was a MASTERPIECE before it was popular and that’s when Rihanna actually wore it. Now it’s been reformulated twice since then and it’s wack. And now people are judging it based on the current formulation.
Yes!!!! 😱My Baccarat HAS redused, aswell, yes!! I have’nt been wearing it so much, since I save it for special occasions, but its more then half way down and I am really wondering! So funny you mention it🧐🧐 Love from Denmark❤️
La vie est belle Is a masterpiece. Not getting the hate here. Since niche stuff invaded RUclips everyone Is talking Bill*** over popular fragances. Come on. Perfumes are perfumes no matter the brand. Just enjoy! And don't disrespect timeless masterpieces.
The top 3 I still have never tried them, I live where you just don't have the stores that have those fragrance. I think becasue I have heard them talked about so highly that if I ever get to smell them, I am sure to be let down becasue the hype is just not sustainable to the built expectations
I am not a fan of Delina it’s just too tart for me and I dnt like Dama Bianca either because of it being so tart…I’ve had my fair share of days of Lancôme la vie est belle I dnt wear it anymore but I still enjoy the scent
I’m just getting into wearing (not often) Delina. I tried both flankers and dupes, but the OG is for me. I never smell it on anyone else. I don’t like many of the others you mentioned, but I do have La Vie est Belle. Oddly enough, I don’t wear it often because it gives me a headache lol.
Right. I have never heard of them since I started watching fragrance videos. And some of these popular one I went in store to smell them and I’m like meh. But I do like delina, it is very very very long lasting which is one of the top things I look for when buying a fragrance (especially for being sooo expensive).
100% right, BR540 bottles seem to have evaporation issues. After hearing this so many times I decided to buy the travel spray set instead of the bottle. It’s lovely- and no issues. 🥰
Went to the mall, tried BR540, Stayed on my watch wrist for a long time, I loved it!!! So, I bought a bottle from the MFK’s site!! What a deception…I cannot smell it, nothing to do with the store version! It’s faint!!! Could there be a batch problem!?! It cannot be that different!!!
@@carolepigeon You are not alone. I have the same issue and proved it to the Neiman Marcus salesperson while comparing fragrances. She also noticed the 540 faded away. Then went on to propose I layer the extrait with other scents. Why would I layer something with an expensive extrait that falls away on my skin? I declined and will ocassionally play with my free decants. I do smell it in the very beginning after a spray a couple of days later but I go nose blind 10 minutes later.
Baccarat rouge 540 extrait for me I do own both but I prefer extrait. I can see how it would dilute over time if not used but then again I’m not sure unless if it’s in a bad temperature
You, Demi, should be blamed for Delina being overhyped.. 😂😂 Jk. Just from personal experience, I saw JF talk about Delina in some of his videos years ago, and when you used to mention it in almost all of your videos, I just knew I had to get Delina. I really hope you get another discount code for PdM.
For some reason I've never been able to get on the Aventus train. It does have a nice opening but it's always smelled like an outdated 90's cologne with an old man twist after that.
Sauvage is soooo overrated. I have the edt and it lasts 4 hours with no projection after 30 mins, if I spray on my clothes it smells like comet or bathroom cleaner.
Ha. That's what we said about Green Irish Tweed, then they released Millesime Imperial then we thought they won't do better then they released Aventus. Just you wait Demi and see what else Creed comes up with. That said they are now owned by private equity firm so lets see what happens.
Wouldn’t say aventus is overrated its just common.. so many wear it.. its dull now and so much better out there and most at a fraction of the massively inflated price
My opinion of overrated fragrances are Delina, BR540, Aventus, Yeah, I am not a Delina fan. I have tried and tried. It is just not for me.. I got zero compliments when I wore it, but I don't judge the success of the fragrances I wear by compliments, I just think it is again, not for me.
actually don't really care much what others think of my fragrance so long as I love smelling it and wearing it. And if it's less popular, even better for me.
I feel like some of these fragrances seem overrated because of their price tags. I feel like if, let’s say, BR540 has a designer price, then I would say yes it is worth the hype.
My issue with ‘Love don’t be shy’ I can’t get pass through the opening. So is Sintra. However, Oriana is lot better. I didn’t have that problem as much. Then the Black Opium, that is one of the fragrances I couldn’t get on board for any reason. So is La vie est belle. I will go as far as to say I hate it. And I understand Baccarat and Delina. Everyone is talking about it to the point it’s hard to say whether they truly like it or just saying that to be with the cool kids. You know like a placebo effect.
I like Oriana, And I strongly dislike Sintra and love don’t be shy for the same reason, the opening 🥴 I wish Oriana lasted longer and projected better, only then it would be worth it to buy a full bottle
Unpopular opinion but my most overrated cologne and I do actually own it is Dolce & Gabbana "The One". The hype really got me to buy it. I kept trying it out in the stores but always found something else instead. Then I just went for it one day and now I rarely wear it. Sad but it alone just gives me good but ehh vibes. Maybe I just need to start layering it with other scents just to use it at this point.
Thanks for sharing ❤️ without even smelling the Baccarat rouge, Delina and Creed, I really find it ridiculous to pay so much for a perfume, so they are already overrated. Love the la vie est belle, it’s a statement must have in my opinion 👑
Just because I don't like a scent that other people like or love, I wouldn't call it overrated. I love Delina, BR540 and Black Opium and don't really care if people think these are overrated or overhyped.
There's a difference between overrated and overexposed. Overrated- Not as good as you think and the brand is skating by on it's reputation. Overexposed-You experience it so often you just take it for granted.
I agree for sure!
I agree. Masterpieces like BR540 and Delina are over hyped, but deserve their outstanding raves. I still am the only one in my circle that wears Delina, but I smell Baccarrat Rouge dupes quite often.
Agreed 💯
So if Delina and aventus were the “holy grail” at one time what has taken their place as the king/queen of niche fragrance currently? I feel they have to be dethroned before being considered over hyped.
Totally concur!
Aventus is wayyyy overrated, and I also hate the smell (ashes floating in lemon juice)- but delina is delicious and I love it on my girlfriend
I have around 80 bottles, and I have Aventus, Sauvage, and BR540 in my top 5 lol. Delina is by far my number one favorite woman's fragrance.

If you've smelled BR540 and still wear Dior SauSage, smothering is wrong
Though I really, really like Delina, as does my partner, I can’t say that I personally find whole package of PDM or the juice to be of really supreme quality. Though that might be a bit controversial to say, I am quite picky and I still really enjoy it and have some beautiful memories with the times I have worn Delina.

I tend to agree with you tbh! ❤️

Yes!!!! 😱My Baccarat HAS redused, aswell, yes!!
I have’nt been wearing it so much, since I save it for special occasions, but its more then half way down and I am really wondering!
So funny you mention it🧐🧐
Love from Denmark❤️
Time for a fragrance fridge! Just got a wine fridge last month. Keep everything at 60-63F
La vie est belle Is a masterpiece. Not getting the hate here. Since niche stuff invaded RUclips everyone Is talking Bill*** over popular fragances. Come on. Perfumes are perfumes no matter the brand. Just enjoy! And don't disrespect timeless masterpieces.
The top 3 I still have never tried them, I live where you just don't have the stores that have those fragrance. I think becasue I have heard them talked about so highly that if I ever get to smell them, I am sure to be let down becasue the hype is just not sustainable to the built expectations
I am not a fan of Delina it’s just too tart for me and I dnt like Dama Bianca either because of it being so tart…I’ve had my fair share of days of Lancôme la vie est belle I dnt wear it anymore but I still enjoy the scent
I’m just getting into wearing (not often) Delina. I tried both flankers and dupes, but the OG is for me. I never smell it on anyone else. I don’t like many of the others you mentioned, but I do have La Vie est Belle. Oddly enough, I don’t wear it often because it gives me a headache lol.
For me it would be Naxos, Layton and mostly these new luxury brands that in some cases are 'inspirations' of designers/well known perfumes
Really enjoy the video, would it be possible to get alternative to those perfumes, that have same dna ( like Love by Kilian ) maybe on a new video….
Team Johnny
He seems so sweet…I hope he wins the case 🥵🙏🏻❤️
@@demirawling he will will, Disney will re-hire him and Captain Jack Sparrow will return
I definitely agree with you about MFK 540. To the point I’m sick of it.
I live in Chile and I have never smell nor Delina nor BR450 on anyone. If they are not in the fragance world they haven’t even heard of them
Right. I have never heard of them since I started watching fragrance videos. And some of these popular one I went in store to smell them and I’m like meh. But I do like delina, it is very very very long lasting which is one of the top things I look for when buying a fragrance (especially for being sooo expensive).
Congrats on 250K!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
540 is just too sweet for me. I have both the original and the Extrait, and I never wear either.
Yes my bottle a baccarat rough 540 also had juice evaporate.
I guess I like basic🥰 also I have and love Delina because of you 👍🙏❣️
Lovely to see you again Demi 💙 Gonna have to agree with all of them.
100% right, BR540 bottles seem to have evaporation issues. After hearing this so many times I decided to buy the travel spray set instead of the bottle. It’s lovely- and no issues. 🥰
Went to the mall, tried BR540, Stayed on my watch wrist for a long time, I loved it!!!
So, I bought a bottle from the MFK’s site!! What a deception…I cannot smell it, nothing to do with the store version! It’s faint!!! Could there be a batch problem!?! It cannot be that different!!!
@@carolepigeon You are not alone. I have the same issue and proved it to the Neiman Marcus salesperson while comparing fragrances. She also noticed the 540 faded away. Then went on to propose I layer the extrait with other scents. Why would I layer something with an expensive extrait that falls away on my skin? I declined and will ocassionally play with my free decants. I do smell it in the very beginning after a spray a couple of days later but I go nose blind 10 minutes later.
Baccarat rouge 540 extrait for me I do own both but I prefer extrait. I can see how it would dilute over time if not used but then again I’m not sure unless if it’s in a bad temperature
Hello Demi ! Could you please reveal which music you use in video it’s very nice 😊 thanks
Just found your channel glad I did great video look forward to seeing more and I'm happy to say none of my fragrances were on the kill list lol
Fun video Demi, I love some of these, I think maybe the same thing happened to my BR40! Either that or my daughters are stealing it 😂😂😂
I gave my bottle of Black Opium Intense to my niece, because I’ve never liked the scent. I guess I don’t like coffee notes in my fragrances.
You, Demi, should be blamed for Delina being overhyped.. 😂😂 Jk.
Just from personal experience, I saw JF talk about Delina in some of his videos years ago, and when you used to mention it in almost all of your videos, I just knew I had to get Delina.
I really hope you get another discount code for PdM.
Thank you Demi for this video I rlly feel as thou killian don’t be shy is overated it’s just so unnecessarily sweet 😭
For some reason I've never been able to get on the Aventus train. It does have a nice opening but it's always smelled like an outdated 90's cologne with an old man twist after that.
Sauvage is soooo overrated. I have the edt and it lasts 4 hours with no projection after 30 mins, if I spray on my clothes it smells like comet or bathroom cleaner.
Your top looks beautiful (from what we can see) - where did you get it from?
In Michigan (U.S.) hardly anyone wears fragrance. I hardly have smelled anyone wearing it in my 58 years of living. Wish I did.
Great video and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
What about caban by ysl ??
Are they similar or far different??
Is it true that tuxedo is disconnected??
Ha. That's what we said about Green Irish Tweed, then they released Millesime Imperial then we thought they won't do better then they released Aventus. Just you wait Demi and see what else Creed comes up with. That said they are now owned by private equity firm so lets see what happens.
I am in love in kilian perfume and delina exclusif and baccarat rouge 540 extrait😍❤
Could care less what ppl think of my fragrances that I love. I don’t need to be for everyone….
Wouldn’t say aventus is overrated its just common.. so many wear it.. its dull now and so much better out there and most at a fraction of the massively inflated price
My opinion of overrated fragrances are Delina, BR540, Aventus, Yeah, I am not a Delina fan. I have tried and tried. It is just not for me.. I got zero compliments when I wore it, but I don't judge the success of the fragrances I wear by compliments, I just think it is again, not for me.
I love Gran Soir, it is so beautiful. I love Oud Satin Mood from MFK
actually don't really care much what others think of my fragrance so long as I love smelling it and wearing it. And if it's less popular, even better for me.
Can you review Simone Andreoli perfumes. The girls on tik tok are raving about him
I owe the best fragrances in my collection to Demi 👑
Baccarat Rouge 540 is a top 3 scent in existence.
Royal Oud is mine and my hubby’s fav too ❤️💚❤️
Now I really wanna know if Johnny Depp does get a commission from savauge. If anyone knows lmk haha if he does I might get a trial just for him
He’s the face of the fragrance 1000% he gets a kickback from the sales. I’m really glad Dior chose to stick by him during all this!
I feel like some of these fragrances seem overrated because of their price tags. I feel like if, let’s say, BR540 has a designer price, then I would say yes it is worth the hype.
I love you Demi . Thanks 💫❣️
My BR540 - no signs of evaporation what so ever! :)
Although Aventus is over hyped, to me, that scent and santal complet are my favorite fragrances to smell on a man.
My issue with ‘Love don’t be shy’ I can’t get pass through the opening. So is Sintra. However, Oriana is lot better. I didn’t have that problem as much.
Then the Black Opium, that is one of the fragrances I couldn’t get on board for any reason. So is La vie est belle. I will go as far as to say I hate it.
And I understand Baccarat and Delina. Everyone is talking about it to the point it’s hard to say whether they truly like it or just saying that to be with the cool kids. You know like a placebo effect.
I like Oriana, And I strongly dislike Sintra and love don’t be shy for the same reason, the opening 🥴 I wish Oriana lasted longer and projected better, only then it would be worth it to buy a full bottle
agree with sauvage and aventus, blu de channel should be here as well
How enchanting you look Demi
You make Delina soooooo announce.
You are starting to make Delina big.
I hope Parfume de Marli say thank you for you.
Unpopular opinion but my most overrated cologne and I do actually own it is Dolce & Gabbana "The One". The hype really got me to buy it. I kept trying it out in the stores but always found something else instead. Then I just went for it one day and now I rarely wear it. Sad but it alone just gives me good but ehh vibes. Maybe I just need to start layering it with other scents just to use it at this point.
Congratulations on meeting your 250k milestone Demi. This series is a great long lasting idea for interaction with your market base.
Thanks for sharing ❤️ without even smelling the Baccarat rouge, Delina and Creed, I really find it ridiculous to pay so much for a perfume, so they are already overrated. Love the la vie est belle, it’s a statement must have in my opinion 👑
I find it ridiculous that you don't make more money 😏
I Love Delina but I got burned out on the woody/incense. 😕
Support Johnny!
No two fragrances says I’m a follower and not a leader like Creed Aventus and Dior Sauvage
I believe Rihanna wears Love Don’t Be Shy by Kilian
what about narciso
Sauvage Parfum is nice
