I really appreciate how you disclaimed the compliments one might get or not. I 100% agree with you on Amouge Guidance. I have a sample of it and recently wore it to Brunch. A waitress that was not from our table asked me what I was wearing and then came back to have me google it for her. 😂 I find it nice, but not my favorite from the brand. Sunshine woman is my fave from the house. I love your videos and enjoy your take on scents ❤
I have found all These fragrances that you are talking about along with their brand because of your recommendations when I first started watching fragrances videos. You have such a diversity of scents that every one can find something they like ❤️ also, your voice is very comforting, I love watching your videos, and you are very beautiful 😍
Bianco Latte is definitely a compliment magnet. I also got many compliments when I wear Babycat x Khamrah. Also recently been wearing Kind Intentions and that gets me so many compliments.. that rich creamy vanilla dry down creates such an intoxicating scent trail🥰
Wow! I’ve had the EXACT same response with Guidance! I just DO NOT like it myself, but my husband adores it. I’ve worn it to a wedding (my husbands request) and several people asked me what perfume I wear. At work, same response. People just love the scent. It does not work on me and I do regret the expense. So many other great perfumes out there.
I’m sooooo excited to receive my bianco latte fragrance. I love vanilla in fragrances, I also love Thameen perigrina and one umbrella for two x My most complimented fragrances are: BDK rouge smoking Kilian Angel shares Memo Paris mandura D&G devotion
The way you feel about Amouage Guidance is how I feel about Bianco Latte 😂. I did not like BL. I thought it smelled juvenile and way too sweet. I definitely didn’t get the hype for something so basic. Yet, I received soooo many compliments the first and only time I wore it lol!! Now guidance I wasn’t sure if I would like, but I actually LOVE it!
Haha that is so interesting! I do think it’s a linear simple vanilla but it has an intoxicating scent trail which people really pick up on. So interesting you didn’t enjoy but people still complimented, that’s the nature of perfume and how subjective it is! I am so glad you love Guidance ☺️
Omg same!! Thankfully I purchase a sample size of BL and as much as I tried to love it, I could not! I get so much coconut in it, which I’m not a fan of, surprised most people haven’t noted the coconut note. But Guidance 🤯The opening is so strong but that dry down😍 Get so many compliments for guidance.
Great list 🥰 I want to add Peregrina to my fragrance wardrobe and maybe Blue Heart too. My most complimented fragrances of 2023 are Althaïr, Ivory Route, Bond No 9 New Bond Street ,Rouge Smoking and Babycat
I'm wearing a sample of Peregrina today that I got based on your review and it is absolutely amazing. I'll add it to the long list of bottles I want! 😁
I agree that sweet fragrances seem to get the most compliments. Tbh i tended to stay away from them but this year I blind bought Blanche Bete, Material and Fire At Will and people just gravitate yo them 😋. One colleague asked about BB and bought it for his wife's birthday
Hi Hayley, did you know you’re on a sponsored FB ad for Goldfield and Banks for Silky Woods?🙌🏾 loved this video! my most complimented fragrance is Musk Therapy.
I am glad you reviewed One Umbrella for Two. I might just buy Umbrella for Two just for the bottle. It's beautiful. It was in my subscription a few months back. I tried it. There is something in the ingredients that comes across like rotting fruit or over fermented something. Maybe it's the rice or the tea note. Is there some kind of bean in there? You're right that it has a syrupy sweetness. But it makes me wrinkle my nose. It is rare that I absolutely hate a perfume. But this is one of them. It's too bad. I love the bottle.
Oh your description of Jardins de Misfah was sensational, wow. I'm off to their website now to order a sample. Thank you so much for being so clever and helpful in including such enticing information. If you hadn't mentioned that they offer trial sizes I probably wouldn't ever visit their website. Thank you Hayley! Dates AND rose?! That does sound like the definition of 'jammy'. Yum.
I agree that Bianco latte is quite linear/ boring but is pretty and gets loads of compliments. Guidance is the opposite. It is so interesting it becomes difficult but beautiful and loads of compliments. I have to get my nose on one umbrella. Peregrina is so sexy. All bangers!!👏🏽❤
Thank you for being honest about guidance. I’ve watched several recent videos where influencers are starting to walk it back. I almost did a blind buy, but went for a sample instead. I’m very happy I did this because I don’t like it. I work in a cosmetic department selling fragrance and no one I worked with liked it either. I think all loud fragrances get compliments, and some of them probably are not genuine. I have asked people what they are wearing strictly because it was hideous,but you have to follow that with a compliment because no one wants to hurt someone’s feelings. I think the compliments you can trust would be from your family members and very close friends.
This made me chuckle that you ask people because it’s hideous. That’s so funny. I’ve only ever asked when I genuinely like how they smell. 😂 I tried to make Guidance work for me so many times as it’s so loved, just something niggles at me after a while
@@hayley.clough one coworker said it smelled like feminine hygiene products and another coworker said it smelled like someone who needed to use feminine hygiene products
It's AMOUAGE. It was never meant for the pink sugar black opium girlies. Because of RUclips, ya'll got your nose on it and subsequently ruined the reviews on Fragrantica. My family who hates fragrances love this.
I have samples of all of these thanks to watching your videos this year. So I can sniff each one as you talk about it in this video. I’m 50/50 on buying Guidance, I’m more swayed by the pink bottle. lol
For me? Peregrina, Iris Malikhan, Guidance and Silky Woods. I just don’t get Bianco Latte hype. I may buy it but as you and Demi say it’s the longevity factor.
Great list!! Don’t buy into the hype if you are unsure, maybe try get a sample. It’s just got an insane scent trail which is what I think gets compliments. It is a lovely vanilla but I adore vanilla fragrances
@@hayley.clough I do too Hayley. You know that. But I think the Jousset (sp) one (the OG, not the flankers) do the work better. For me, my new favorite is Vanilla Powder. When you said you liked it, I knew I was going into Manhattan (as in you going into London - same distance) and I immediately went to Saks to test. I LOVE IT. I love SDV too (bought it earlier this year), but I'm such a MP fan that I knew it would be hard for me to hate it.
And by the way, I held off on Guidance. Until October. I can't wear it now in NY cold, but when I last tested it in September (it was still hot), it just bloomed. It is polarizing though. Yet people respond.
I appreciate that you point out the many factors which would lead to compliments. Your age, your geographical location, your type of work, your friends. For instance, I am from the Pacific Northwest of the U.S. I am a professional in healthcare. I would be asked to go home if I wore a noticeable fragrance. Further, in general it would be considered strange if I wore a middle eastern type fragrance in any setting. Sure, we wear fragrance for ourselves but nobody wants to be treated with disgust because of what they are wearing…..
Hello Hayley. I feel the same way about Guidance. It took me 7-8 months before I started warming up to it, and I could also do only 2-3 sprays, as far far from my nose as possible 🤣 but for some reason, it’s just a big compliment magnet, to the point that I make the compliment givers buy their own bottle. 😁The one fragrance in my collection that beat Guidance with regards to the amount of compliments was THOO Bonbon Pop, and since the last few days, Navitus Baklava Royale. 🥰😊😍
I think im the odd one out regarding bianco latte it was not flattering to me i had to wash it off. I own guidance i feel the same its cloying and super strong and just one spray stuck to everything i own for days it upset my stomach.
@@hayley.clough thank you for replying 🤗 I read some reviews in Fragrantica saying they can smell oud in Peregrina, and I struggle with this note 😮💨 I’m on a hunt for a rosy-caramely fragrance
Oh, I wore 5 sprays of Guidance today and I cant smell my self😅 It lifts my mood, but its not my favorit perfume, bit a biiig like❤ Insane Im noseblind to it though..🥲
I found out that spraying over 2 sprays of GUIDANCE i go nose blind I don’t know why and i am over sprayer but with this 1 spray is enough and i smell myself the whole day
TBH I think the fact that you're a beautiful woman makes it more likely that people compliments you on your perfume. 😅 my most complimented fragrance is one that I don't even like, Lancome Idole, the original 🤣
Ahhh thank you, that’s a lovely comment. I normally get complimented by women?! I think I am also normally in shops or in London when it happens too. Not always.
I really appreciate how you disclaimed the compliments one might get or not. I 100% agree with you on Amouge Guidance. I have a sample of it and recently wore it to Brunch.

BDK rouge smoking
Kilian Angel shares
Memo Paris mandura

Ahhh yay I am so glad you like it
I’m obsessed with Guidance always get compliments when wearing it
Absolutely, compliment magnet 🧲

Yesssss!! More fragrances with intoxicating scent trails, I can see them all getting compliments for sure
Hi Hayley, did you know you’re on a sponsored FB ad for Goldfield and Banks for Silky Woods?🙌🏾
loved this video! my most complimented fragrance is Musk Therapy.
Oh am I? That is cool. I did work with them on some content last month and they have the rights to use the content. Nice to know it’s being used ☺️

My most complimented by far is Hibiscus Mahajad. The reaction to that fragrance has been insane for me.
I can totally see that, I think if I wore my HM more I’d probably have had some reactions too. It’s beautiful 🤩

It’s a simple vanilla but with a huge projection, which is why I believe it’s hyped up. I do love it don’t get me wrong but yeah it’s linear.
I don’t like this scent, bought one without smelling it first and was totally surprised about the whole hype .. it smells like a cake
@@lifeisendlessx7929 it may be one that you layer with other scents🤔
Love to layer Guidance with Angels Share or Fleur Musc or Gypsy Water or Memo Marfa or Delina or Oriana or Love dnt be shy
Woah, powerhouse combos
Dolce Melodia, Celeste and Goddess were the most complimented for me
Yessss!! Dolce Melodia is being featured in a video very soon! Such a great one! Love Celeste and Goddess too!

@@tolikfox007lol @‘pink sugar girlies’😅😅. I agree AMOUAGE isn’t meant for everyone. Guidance is a lifer for me, it’s gorgeous ❤
Peregrina is in my top 5 for life❤Love loove it..
So special 😍
Signature Tobac by Zaharoff, a tobaco/honey scent & the discontinued Gucci Pour Homme 2, a tea/tobacco scent were my most complimented frags this year
Nice!! 🔥

Thanks for the video, I love peregrina its so nice ,but I really dont like Giardini di toscana bianco latte it's just sugar it same as pink sugar
Thanks for sharing! Peregrina is beautiful. Bianco Latte? I don’t get Pink sugar but equally I know we all perceive things very differently.
Hi, can I ask is your bottle of Guidance a 100ml or 50ml?
50ml, cute size!
Hello Hayley. I feel the same way about Guidance.

Thank you 🙏🏼
I think im the odd one out regarding bianco latte it was not flattering to me i had to wash it off. I own guidance i feel the same its cloying and super strong and just one spray stuck to everything i own for days it upset my stomach.
Hey, did you have to let Bianca latte
Sit or did you get it all right away?
Nope it was perfect from the start for me! Beast mode!
Does Peregrina have oud in it?
Is it sweeter than Idole Nectar?
Peregrina has no Oud. I would say they are a similar sweetness.
@@hayley.clough thank you for replying 🤗 I read some reviews in Fragrantica saying they can smell oud in Peregrina, and I struggle with this note 😮💨 I’m on a hunt for a rosy-caramely fragrance
I find it really sweet and pretty, I get an amber in the base but I don’t get the oud myself
Oh, I wore 5 sprays of Guidance today and I cant smell my self😅 It lifts my mood, but its not my favorit perfume, bit a biiig like❤
Insane Im noseblind to it though..🥲
Oh wow 5 sprays and you can’t smell it? Interesting! Do you spray directly under your nose? That can make you a bit anosmic sometimes
I found out that spraying over 2 sprays of GUIDANCE i go nose blind I don’t know why and i am over sprayer but with this 1 spray is enough and i smell myself the whole day

Oh I forgot! Valaya all through the summer
Yessss 🔥

Do you think Peregrina smells like Portrait of a Lady?
Nope not for me
