I rarely comment but thought I’d stop by and say how much I’ve been loving your videos. It’s so refreshing seeing a RUclipsr sit down and mix filming with self care. Favorite video I’ve seen of yours-thank you so much for your hard work on videos despite working long hours. Don’t forget to take care of yourself! Love from TX 💕
Easily one of the best perfume videos I have ever seen ... interjected with so much moodiness and atmosphere, and of course your lovely, entirely unique personality ... thanks, Kait, what a true joy!
Your calming voice, the calming ambience of your living room, the descriptions of these fragrances and their connections to moments in your life make this video such a joy to watch. It’s more than just a display of a perfume collection because it so beautifully captures how visceral, deeply personal, and memory-triggering each person’s olfactory sense is. Thanks for sharing!
Omg. By far, my fave video of yours. Ever. For so many reasons. And it made me tear up, too?! Maybe because it felt so genuinely authentic. (and I’m obsessed with fragrance) Loved. Sending good vibes for next week.
Awww. That made me happy. This video was definitely very much for myself. Though I’m sure subscribers prefer short, snappy reviews, I just love reading fragrance descriptions and talking about scent memories. I’m glad you liked it too, it might be my favorite I’ve ever filmed
This video was exactly everything I never knew I wanted a fragrance collection to be. Watching this as I was sipping coffee in a dark room while it rains outside made me so relaxed. I adore everything about the experience. Thank you for bringing us on this explorative journey. You will definitely inspired some of my future scent purchases because Debaser and Opheon sounds like pure heaven to me. Wish you all the best.
It's 2024 but never too late, and I watched your video until the end. It was a real pleasure, thank you. I find that you put time, effort and energy into your videos and I appreciate that a lot 👌💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I just watched your 2022 body/fragrance video and when I discovered you had dedicated fragrance videos I knew i'd love them and I am not disappointed 😂
My disbelief when every single scent I own or have on my want-to-try list appeared in this video... I can't believe how precisely your content is tailored to my preferences!
"I'm also a little drunk." Just found your channel today and you are now officially my favorite RUclips fragrance reviewer. Double negroni, Eau Duelle EDT, and Orphéon (chef's kiss).
This was such a lovely, calming video to watch. I’ve been following your perfume journey as I’m on my own, and I really loved this new part of it which was both reflective and deeply romantic about perfume (plus funny and sweet when Jon made his cameos). Sending you all my best for brighter days ahead 💕
Loved this video. Perfume is such a beautiful thing, I could be having the shittiest day but putting on perfume sparks joy. My can’t live without perfumes are Tom Ford Lost Cherry & Replica By the Fireplace. I’ve also been loving Nest Golden Nectar now that it’s hot in CA. Sending you love beautiful! 💕
LOVED this video! You exude authenticity in this video and it’s great! You inspired me to grab some samples (specifically of Diptyque fragrances I’ve had on my list FOREVER). Thank you for being so open and honest, it’s really lovely.
I found myself wanting to klick the subscribe button numerous times ... only to realize that of course I am already subscribed and forever will be - just SUCH a truly wonderful video - love it to pieces!
This was such an incredible watch! We have so many similar faves (duh) but so fun to go through and hear the comparisons and hear your scent memories. Makes me wanna film perfume content lol
I don’t really wear perfume but watching you talk about perfumes in this review but also on Instagram made me want to try out a few samples. I’m also someone who gets headaches easily from scents so I know I can trust your judgment. How you explained the notes of all the perfumes was so poetic and therapeutic and the silky tone of your voice was just the cherry on top.
I have been eyeing Vacation for some time. I think I will pick it up now! I absolutely love beachy fragrances. My most favorite is Beach Walk by Replica and I love Bobbi Brown Beach!
Vacation is special because of the coconut, banana, and plastic notes! So so good. And I also tried Ellis Brooklyn Fawn yesterday, which smells like a cross between beach walk and Soleil Blanc!
I love hearing about perfume collections. I like coconut scents too. I bought Dossiers version of the Tom Ford soleil blanc because I bought Tom Fords $60 travel size and fell in love. I also love Beach Walk
@@StateofKait I have the Tom Ford Dossier dupe and the next one I get is going to be the beach walk dupe. Dossier’s packaging is really nice too with a magnetic cap :)
Kait, I'm sorry your week was not what we wanted it to be..♡♡♡♡ Loved this cozy vlog talking about fragrance♡♡ I have become more into fragrance in the last year and wearing perfume everyday even though I am just at home 🏡 😊 I love you and John together ❤️
🥂 Cheers, love. Hope next week is better. We had a Saturn and Neptune retrograde in Pisces this week. Let me say, I feel you!! Next week should be better- lots of Venus aspects.. but definitely time for some reflection and decisions.. creative ideas and letting go of what’s not working ✊🏼Wishing you guys the best. Thank you 🙏🏼🍀🫶
I thoroughly enjoyed your favorite perfume video. I bought Clementine California after hearing you talk about it in another video. Today I ordered two of the vanilla perfumes that you mentioned. I am a vanilla girl. Listening to the description of the different scents was so relaxing. With my body chemistry I need a stronger scent for it to last. I’ve worn Shalimar for as long as I can remember for that reason.
Please keep sharing your favorite perfumes. I needed a perk me up so I ended up buying the Jo Malone, Diptyque and DS & Derga fragrances. I just got Diptyque and love it. I look foward to the others.
I’m sorry the week was rough. I love hearing people talk about why they love a fragrance, because it’s so individual. Thanks for sharing all your picks, I’m definitely going to check some out. My absolute favorite is Atelier Cologne Santal Carmin, it’s warm, sexy and creamy and I wore it on my wedding day 🥰. It’s pricey, but gorgeous.
I love many of Diptyque's fragances. It's my favourite perfume brand. And I like a lot to see some Diptyque's in your collection. Personally, I love Tam Dao (It's my signature fragance), L'Ombre dans L'Eau, an amazing green wet rose wood, Do Son, the most beautiful and bright floral white that I've smelled, L'Eau des Hespérides, a very preety fresh citrus, the opulent Orphéon, and the most elegant, distinguished and sensual of them all: Eau Capitale. I'm in love with Eau Capitale. A very good video, lovely voice and impressive eyes of yours. 👏🏻👏🏻
Fave video I have seen of yours! Love ones like this. Love fragrance videos and we have such similar taste! Maybe you could do a series on fragrances/candles
I loved Sweetbitter and I was totally picturing that ambiance as you described the Diptyque fragrance. Also, you nudged me toward buying Eau Duelle and Debaser in the middle of the video. I loved watching. Thank you!
FYI for Le Labo if you already own a City Exclusive bottle you can refill it any time of the year. Only refills tho. Learned this from my local Le Labo boutique 😊
So late to this video but I’ve been looking forward to watching it. I absolutely love how you describe fragrances and we share a few favorites, so I definitely added to my wishlist. Beach Walk and Clementine California are my favs, but a recent go-to headache-free scent I love is Reserve Warm Cotton
I love this video! I am also a fragrance wardrobe person. I found this video super informative and relaxing. Hope you have a better week, hang in there!
My favourite vanilla has been from Atelier but now that I can’t buy it anymore I love that you have so many options here lol I’ll have to try them out!
I’m a new subscriber to your channel because of this video. It’s so refreshing to see someone who’s not into florals. I just cannot do all these white florals in everything these days without getting a headache and or nausea. I got some great suggestions from your lists and hope you do more perfume videos! Thanks! 🙂
By redo pulp sounds right up my alley! I’m definitely a floral/gourmand/ fresh scent girl bc I too get headaches and sinus issues with too intense fragrances! I’m a big fan of Sweet by Ellis Brooklyn but I have to use it sparingly! Also love Tom ford lost cherry and bitter peach.
Un Jardin Sur Le Nil ~ 😌 one of my favorites, I’ve repurchased it several times. This is such a fussy fragrance on me, the fragrance changes on my skin depending on the weather. I love, love it! 😍
This was so calming and lovely. I’m so intrigued by the DS & Durga line, might have to get some samples… Thanks for cheering me up on a day I wasn’t feeling so well ❤️
We can be miserable together 😂 definitely check out the DS & Durga, I really appreciate that you can customize sample sets. That’s how I fell in love with the brand.
I watched this video for one minute and 15 seconds and that's all it took to subscribe. I heard the swear word warning and I knew I was right at home 🤣 beautiful collection!
Sending you and john/jon (?) love and solace, I loved seeing this side of you. It felt like we were having a little fireside chat and I definitely needed it after the week I’ve had. Thank you for always putting out stellar content ❤
The disappointing stress of your week sure brings out a tough as nails & appealing Kait🌸loved the vibes as I’m still dipping into fragrances& have a lot to learn… Question : how to wear perfume? A derm recently said the neck is off limits if using skin care ( Irritating ) and others say back of knee and folds of elbow and belly button to make it linger all day ? Truly, I’m perplexed . Whatcha think ? Thanks for great video AGAIN🎉
New subscriber. Great video, Kait. I love talking about fragrances. Great way to mix your content up, love it all - make up, skincare, and fragrance. Wow, you're so beautiful!💐
I'm living for watching you this loose lol Also THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT DS AND DURGA?! I love their shit. I don't talk about them because I'd hate for them to ever become tiktok viral 😂
I think you have the most similar taste of perfume to me ♥️ Sur de toit and philosykos are my go to since around 2016, now i tested debaser and im lost for words. I love it! L’ombre dans leu i like as well, its similar to Florabotanica by Balenciaga, its probably getting discontinued, yet still cheaper than most niche 😅. Great video
What are your favorites? I’m always looking for new ones and I’m very picky because most are too sweet to me. Like replica by the fireplace smells like straight up sugar to me and no smoke
@@StateofKait I am definitely not into really sweet perfumes either! My current favorites that Killian Angel’s Share and Initio Side Effect. I also like Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, but that borders on too sweet for me.
Wow, I loved watching this video so much. I literally hung on to every word. I’m a huge fan of DS & Durga, Diptyque & Le Labo. My goodness I have so many of the fragrances you featured. I really wished we could have interacted. Trust me, even though you couldn’t hear me, I was getting very excited, hooting and hollering throughout this clip. Lol. Orpheon is gorgeous.
watched this on a whim and now i MUST have debaser! never knew this existed and im obsessed with the pixies, especially dolittle. i mean, i even have the tattoo 😏 can’t wait to get this!!
Relaxing video. Thank you. Need to try Diptyque orpheon ( not bothering to spell check as I was drinking wine). I got into st. Rose vigilante and diptyque capitale (solids) during pandemic. Ds Durga sounds amazing. I’ll have to try
I would looooovvveee a “runners up to Clementine California” video. I loved that fragrance and tried to buy direct from Atlier but they ran out and issued a refund. It may have actually been a touch too fizzy (the vetiver maybe?). I only trust you to go on the hunt required for such a journey.
This was so helpful! I poured a gin and tonic and learnt a lot. I am the worlds worst perfume described but I just bought kilian angels share after loving a sample so I like warm and spicy I think!!
I LOOOOOOVE this video. Have you listened to Smell Ya Later? It's a podcast about fragrance and scent, and it's so so good. The hosts are hilarious but they're also beauty writers so they understand how to describe fragrance in a way that really translates well. Highly recommend!
I love DS and Durga so much and am so excited to hear you talking about them! I feel like there is something wild and weird about all their scents that no one else gets quite as right. I got Bowmakers years and years ago, and have always loved it (although it can be a bit intense), and now I live near their store in Brooklyn, and started going in to test out their other scents to try and find something that was a bit lighter, and am (unfortunately for my wallet) now obsessed with so many of their fragrances. I generally gravitate to more woody or smoky scents (one of my friends and I are always talking about how our aspiration is to always smell like a tree in some form), and was so surprised by how completely I fell for Debaser, which I was not expecting to love at all. My other faves are Radio Bombay and Cowboy Grass (Coriander too, but it fades really quickly on me). Like you, I am sensitive to fragrance and get headaches from perfumes, but have never had a problem with any of theirs. I think if you get one of their sampler sets (at least the 4 packs) they'll then email you a code you can apply to the purchase of a full size perfume for a discount of equal value to the sample set, which I love.
Wild and weird is such a good way to describe them! I’ve tried a lot of their fragrances and candles and some of them are definitely too weird for me. I LOVE Bowmakers on Jon and or as a body wash. They had a whole line of Bowmakers at a hotel I went to in LA and I fell in love.
Just an FYI Atelier has a new fragrance called Pacific Lime. It had lime, lemon, coconut, spearmint and eucalyptus. I spray it every morning to start my day. I have several scents from Atelier and enjoy them all. The vanilla is amazing and long lasting . Macarons has several fragrances on sale plus there are promo codes for an additional discount. I know you’re a vanilla girl like my and like line-mint. The only scent I don’t like is the vetiver I just received.
As a fellow hEDS/MCAS fragrance lover who is super sensitive to patchoulis, white florals, and too-much-too-much fragrances, I appreciate your videos so much! Have you tried Dime Beauty’s Malibu Night? The official scent notes are kind of misleading, because they categorize it as a fruity-gourmand when it’s much more of a fruity-green-beach scent. It’s got top notes of not-at-all sweet, very green pear (that goes into a green mango on some people) and raspberry and coconut milk, middle notes that are salty and green with a *hint* of rose, and then the base notes are both a fresh coconut and coconut cream with a warm, not-sweet vanilla bean and salty musk. The way you described your favorites kept making me think of it.
I love that you mentioned d.s. & Durga. I have d.s, el cosmico (smells like the Arizona desert) and Italian citrus. Italian citrus is better than Byredo pulp, in my opinion, and I love pulp. I need to get debaser. Thank you for a thorough description of your fragrances.
So excited for this video! In theory I love perfume, but in reality I get headaches and allergy like reactions from many of them. Will definitely look into your fresh category, thank you. And I adore un jardin sur le nil too, but on my skin the opening note is clearly the carrot, still love it haha
@@StateofKait yes, it's exactly my kind of humor, Hermes makes me smell like carrots. But for real, it smells like when you peel and cut a fresh carrot and the yummy smell fills the air. It's wonderful. The dry down is luckily much more sophisticated. The notes that make me suffer the most are white flowers followed by roses. I'm a huge fan of your channel btw. but comment for the first time, so hi Kait!
If you like Byredo Bibliotheque as a scent, you should try the Beauty Pie Leather, Violet leaves, and labdunum candle. Similar smell. I also describe it as smelling like a leather paneled cigar room (without the heaviness of the smoke)
I started my fragrance journey in 2020 too, and Eau Duelle is one of my favorites. I also have Bibliotheque but agree it is best as a candle, and in fact they do sell a mini Bibliotheque candle which I have. Fun video :)
I have the world’s worst nose, but I still enjoyed this video! I’d love to find more perfumes I like, but so far anything that isn’t fruity/fresh ends up really cloying on me. Today I tried Atelier’s Vanille Insensee which ended horribly and I couldn’t for the life of me get the smell off haha
I love Jazz club and Coffee break by Replica. Le labo has some amazing fragrances. Santal 33 is nice, but there are so many dupes now, that it makes it less unique- dirty velvet comes to mind.
I wore L’Ombre forever ago in high school, back when it came in a rectangular splash bottle. I loved it so much! It was an outside-my-budget gift, and I kept the empty bottle for so long. Now I want another bottle! Scents can be so transporting-will I immediately start skulking around reading novels and shirking my work?
I went on a hunt to figure out what the fragrance in Kevin Murphy's Plumping hair products was. Took me about a year, but what's close is Le Labo Vanille + Le Labo Patchouli. Warm, amber, virginian cedar wood...It's unreal and so fabulous but spency. I bought a travel size of Byredo Bal d' Afrique and love it. Have you checked out Riddle Oils? Sorry if I mentioned this previously!
Ooooo I need to check out that hair product! I have Bal d’Afrique but it isn’t my favorite, it smells to “perfumey” on me and I don’t know how to describe it. Maybe too floral? I can’t tell. Haven’t heard of riddle though!
@@StateofKait Kevin Murphy Plumping range is awesome for us fine hair girls but the wonderful smell will turn if the product sits around too long (especially in bright daylight). I love the Riddle Oils - the signature scent is very white musky (think Kiehls), but I love their Sphinx scent. Best for the incense-y vibe (great for colder months/holidays), check out Maison Francis Kurkdijan Grand Soir and Arquiste Nanban. Lastly, not for everyone but I love the gender neutral Killian Boys but sadly, they've discontinued selling it here (in US), I think. Thanks for this heady and uplifting video on your scent collection! Into Bijou Candles? The Coven Collection is my go-to.
Oh no! I didn’t hear that Atelier was pulling out of the US! I have most of their scents that I wanted (purchased last year), but I wanted to get full size bottles when my travel sizes are empty. 😭
I LOOOOOVE Coriander by DS & Durga. My friends love when I wear it and I just want to bury my face in it. I only have a sample size so I'm desperately clinging to the last few sprays in the bottle. I'm also really into Debaser.... thinking of picking it up in the future.
Actually, coffee IS NOT recommended for clearing your olfactive palate, this info is taken from a friend who graduated from a perfume school in France. The best way is to drink water or borrowing your nose in your clean skin or a wool scarf.
There is nothing I love more than fragrance and cocktails ! ❤️ sidenote about Debaser- Kim Kardashian’s hairstylst wears it and now I want it! I have Radio Bombay and I need Rose Atlantique in my life 🙄😂
@stateofkait I know this is an old video but by any chance do you remember you were talking about Diptyque Philosykos Eau de toilette or Eaux de parfum? 😓 Love all your videos ❤
this was so nice, like we were hanging out together! have you tried any of Snif's fragrances? I love their new one Strawberry Moon (it's a shocker that I do because I don't like sweet and "strawberry" makes me think it would be sweet, but it's more complex)!
follow up to that, I googled it and in fragrance, the term “oriental” is supposed to be synonymous with “sensual.” That still seems wrong to me but I have absolutely no idea. 😅 Either way, I’ll just avoid it so I don’t make a mistake.
Yes, if you use the search icon on my channel you can always look up product reviews. Here's an ellis Brooklyn video ruclips.net/video/D-Sn51E1E2g/видео.html. I own a sample of lis bo but it was just ok to me

Oh thank you! So nice of you to say
I'm a complete perfume novice, but this video sparked a strong desire to start a fragrance collection. Loved every second.
It’s so much fun to explore!

I watched this video for one minute and 15 seconds and that's all it took to subscribe. I heard the swear word warning and I knew I was right at home 🤣 beautiful collection!
Hahahahah thank you! That made me smile
@@StateofKait I'm glad 😊 lol
Sending you and john/jon (?) love and solace, I loved seeing this side of you. It felt like we were having a little fireside chat and I definitely needed it after the week I’ve had. Thank you for always putting out stellar content ❤
Awww, thank you. Hugs to you!
ur literally freaking ADORABLE i love this🥺
Dawwwwww
The disappointing stress of your week sure brings out a tough as nails & appealing Kait🌸loved the vibes as I’m still dipping into fragrances& have a lot to learn… Question : how to wear perfume? A derm recently said the neck is off limits if using skin care ( Irritating ) and others say back of knee and folds of elbow and belly button to make it linger all day ? Truly, I’m perplexed . Whatcha think ? Thanks for great video AGAIN🎉
I wear fragrance on the inside of my wrists! Then I add the extra behind my ears 😊
New subscriber. Great video, Kait. I love talking about fragrances. Great way to mix your content up, love it all - make up, skincare, and fragrance. Wow, you're so beautiful!💐
Thanks so much! Appreciate ya
I'm living for watching you this loose lol
Also THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT DS AND DURGA?! I love their shit. I don't talk about them because I'd hate for them to ever become tiktok viral 😂
I think you have the most similar taste of perfume to me ♥️ Sur de toit and philosykos are my go to since around 2016, now i tested debaser and im lost for words. I love it! L’ombre dans leu i like as well, its similar to Florabotanica by Balenciaga, its probably getting discontinued, yet still cheaper than most niche 😅. Great video
Boozy, smokey vanilla scents are my favorite! Now I have some new ones to consider, thanks!
What are your favorites? I’m always looking for new ones and I’m very picky because most are too sweet to me. Like replica by the fireplace smells like straight up sugar to me and no smoke
@@StateofKait I am definitely not into really sweet perfumes either! My current favorites that Killian Angel’s Share and Initio Side Effect. I also like Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, but that borders on too sweet for me.
Wow, I loved watching this video so much. I literally hung on to every word. I’m a huge fan of DS & Durga, Diptyque & Le Labo. My goodness I have so many of the fragrances you featured. I really wished we could have interacted. Trust me, even though you couldn’t hear me, I was getting very excited, hooting and hollering throughout this clip. Lol. Orpheon is gorgeous.
That’s amazing!! So cool we have similar preferences
watched this on a whim and now i MUST have debaser! never knew this existed and im obsessed with the pixies, especially dolittle. i mean, i even have the tattoo 😏 can’t wait to get this!!
Ds & Durga sells samples on their site!
Relaxing video. Thank you. Need to try Diptyque orpheon ( not bothering to spell check as I was drinking wine). I got into st. Rose vigilante and diptyque capitale (solids) during pandemic. Ds Durga sounds amazing. I’ll have to try
Thanks for watching ❤️
I just bought Debaser and I’m soooo excited to douse myself in it. Loved this video ❤️❤️
That makes me so happy, I LOVE Debaser. It’s such a sexy, coconutty fig. I find myself actually craving the smell
I would looooovvveee a “runners up to Clementine California” video. I loved that fragrance and tried to buy direct from Atlier but they ran out and issued a refund. It may have actually been a touch too fizzy (the vetiver maybe?). I only trust you to go on the hunt required for such a journey.
Oooooo that could be fun. It’s so sad we can’t get it anymore :/
Could you layer a couple of Demeter scents to approximate?
This was so helpful! I poured a gin and tonic and learnt a lot. I am the worlds worst perfume described but I just bought kilian angels share after loving a sample so I like warm and spicy I think!!
Awww I love that we shared a drink together 😊
I LOOOOOOVE this video. Have you listened to Smell Ya Later? It's a podcast about fragrance and scent, and it's so so good. The hosts are hilarious but they're also beauty writers so they understand how to describe fragrance in a way that really translates well. Highly recommend!
Wow, no I haven’t but that sounds AMAZING. Thank you!
I love DS and Durga so much and am so excited to hear you talking about them! I feel like there is something wild and weird about all their scents that no one else gets quite as right.
I got Bowmakers years and years ago, and have always loved it (although it can be a bit intense), and now I live near their store in Brooklyn, and started going in to test out their other scents to try and find something that was a bit lighter, and am (unfortunately for my wallet) now obsessed with so many of their fragrances. I generally gravitate to more woody or smoky scents (one of my friends and I are always talking about how our aspiration is to always smell like a tree in some form), and was so surprised by how completely I fell for Debaser, which I was not expecting to love at all. My other faves are Radio Bombay and Cowboy Grass (Coriander too, but it fades really quickly on me).
Like you, I am sensitive to fragrance and get headaches from perfumes, but have never had a problem with any of theirs. I think if you get one of their sampler sets (at least the 4 packs) they'll then email you a code you can apply to the purchase of a full size perfume for a discount of equal value to the sample set, which I love.
Wild and weird is such a good way to describe them! I’ve tried a lot of their fragrances and candles and some of them are definitely too weird for me.
I LOVE Bowmakers on Jon and or as a body wash. They had a whole line of Bowmakers at a hotel I went to in LA and I fell in love.
This was so therapeutic ☕😎
Just an FYI Atelier has a new fragrance called Pacific Lime. It had lime, lemon, coconut, spearmint and eucalyptus. I spray it every morning to start my day. I have several scents from Atelier and enjoy them all. The vanilla is amazing and long lasting . Macarons has several fragrances on sale plus there are promo codes for an additional discount. I know you’re a vanilla girl like my and like line-mint. The only scent I don’t like is the vetiver I just received.
Pretty sure they pulled out of the US, no?
Clementine California and Beach Walk are also great layered I have found highly recommend trying them together :)
Ooooo will try that today!
As a fellow hEDS/MCAS fragrance lover who is super sensitive to patchoulis, white florals, and too-much-too-much fragrances, I appreciate your videos so much!
Have you tried Dime Beauty’s Malibu Night? The official scent notes are kind of misleading, because they categorize it as a fruity-gourmand when it’s much more of a fruity-green-beach scent. It’s got top notes of not-at-all sweet, very green pear (that goes into a green mango on some people) and raspberry and coconut milk, middle notes that are salty and green with a *hint* of rose, and then the base notes are both a fresh coconut and coconut cream with a warm, not-sweet vanilla bean and salty musk. The way you described your favorites kept making me think of it.
whoa that sounds like something I'd love! Thanks for the rec
I love that you mentioned d.s. & Durga. I have d.s, el cosmico (smells like the Arizona desert) and Italian citrus. Italian citrus is better than Byredo pulp, in my opinion, and I love pulp. I need to get debaser. Thank you for a thorough description of your fragrances.
Love both of those too! I also love Bowmaker on Jon. Their scents are so interesting
@@StateofKait they do have very interesting scents. I need to try more for sure.
Had to hop to the comments first to say that I am DYING laughing for your "sensitive little ears" haha!! That alone made my day 💗
Bahahahaha, you’d be shocked by how many people get offended when I swear
LOVED this video!
So excited for this video! In theory I love perfume, but in reality I get headaches and allergy like reactions from many of them. Will definitely look into your fresh category, thank you. And I adore un jardin sur le nil too, but on my skin the opening note is clearly the carrot, still love it haha
Wow that’s so interesting! I don’t get carrot at all!
I wish we didn’t get headaches, there’s be some many more perfumes I could wear
@@StateofKait yes, it's exactly my kind of humor, Hermes makes me smell like carrots. But for real, it smells like when you peel and cut a fresh carrot and the yummy smell fills the air. It's wonderful. The dry down is luckily much more sophisticated. The notes that make me suffer the most are white flowers followed by roses. I'm a huge fan of your channel btw. but comment for the first time, so hi Kait!
@@florist7743 awwww, thank you! Hello!
If you like Byredo Bibliotheque as a scent, you should try the Beauty Pie Leather, Violet leaves, and labdunum candle. Similar smell. I also describe it as smelling like a leather paneled cigar room (without the heaviness of the smoke)
Oh wow, that sounds absolutely wonderful. Thank you!
Cheers! Loved this!
I started my fragrance journey in 2020 too, and Eau Duelle is one of my favorites. I also have Bibliotheque but agree it is best as a candle, and in fact they do sell a mini Bibliotheque candle which I have. Fun video :)
Ahhhh I should buy the mini one! Thanks
I have the world’s worst nose, but I still enjoyed this video! I’d love to find more perfumes I like, but so far anything that isn’t fruity/fresh ends up really cloying on me. Today I tried Atelier’s Vanille Insensee which ended horribly and I couldn’t for the life of me get the smell off haha
That one smells gross to me too!
I love Jazz club and Coffee break by Replica. Le labo has some amazing fragrances. Santal 33 is nice, but there are so many dupes now, that it makes it less unique- dirty velvet comes to mind.
I hope things take a turn for the better soon... for every valley there is a hill.
True, there are dupes! I like coffee break too but it pulls a hair too sweet on me and Jon
I wore L’Ombre forever ago in high school, back when it came in a rectangular splash bottle. I loved it so much! It was an outside-my-budget gift, and I kept the empty bottle for so long. Now I want another bottle! Scents can be so transporting-will I immediately start skulking around reading novels and shirking my work?
Hahahahaha 😂😂😂
This is stunning x ❤
I went on a hunt to figure out what the fragrance in Kevin Murphy's Plumping hair products was. Took me about a year, but what's close is Le Labo Vanille + Le Labo Patchouli. Warm, amber, virginian cedar wood...It's unreal and so fabulous but spency. I bought a travel size of Byredo Bal d' Afrique and love it. Have you checked out Riddle Oils? Sorry if I mentioned this previously!
Ooooo I need to check out that hair product! I have Bal d’Afrique but it isn’t my favorite, it smells to “perfumey” on me and I don’t know how to describe it. Maybe too floral? I can’t tell. Haven’t heard of riddle though!
@@StateofKait Kevin Murphy Plumping range is awesome for us fine hair girls but the wonderful smell will turn if the product sits around too long (especially in bright daylight). I love the Riddle Oils - the signature scent is very white musky (think Kiehls), but I love their Sphinx scent. Best for the incense-y vibe (great for colder months/holidays), check out Maison Francis Kurkdijan Grand Soir and Arquiste Nanban. Lastly, not for everyone but I love the gender neutral Killian Boys but sadly, they've discontinued selling it here (in US), I think. Thanks for this heady and uplifting video on your scent collection! Into Bijou Candles? The Coven Collection is my go-to.
Just a note, simple water sips in between sniffs clean receptors way better than coffee beens
I do feel better ;) and Debaser will be my next purchase.
Thanks! I hope you love it too :)
Oh no! I didn’t hear that Atelier was pulling out of the US! I have most of their scents that I wanted (purchased last year), but I wanted to get full size bottles when my travel sizes are empty. 😭
Yeah you can’t buy them anymore :/ they only ship to France now apparently
Wow, Vacation by Vacation is sold out online ulta and in the store near me, but I ordered the sample from their website! Yay
Yay!!
I LOOOOOVE Coriander by DS & Durga. My friends love when I wear it and I just want to bury my face in it. I only have a sample size so I'm desperately clinging to the last few sprays in the bottle. I'm also really into Debaser.... thinking of picking it up in the future.
I love coriander!
Actually, coffee IS NOT recommended for clearing your olfactive palate, this info is taken from a friend who graduated from a perfume school in France. The best way is to drink water or borrowing your nose in your clean skin or a wool scarf.
Whoa a wool scarf?! Never heard of that
Love the video! For future reference, elbow crease = antecubital fossa 😂
Hi Kait would you make a 2024 Perfume -From-Couch video ?
loved the video!
Hell yeahhhhhhh
Haha that’s the right attitude!!
Hi Kait. Have you tried Fawn perfume? It's gorgeous and beachy.
I just did yesterday on my Instagram stories! Love love love it
Instant like !!!!🍸❤️
Awwww
There is nothing I love more than fragrance and cocktails ! ❤️ sidenote about Debaser- Kim Kardashian’s hairstylst wears it and now I want it! I have Radio Bombay and I need Rose Atlantique in my life 🙄😂
@@onixyush I like radio bombay too!
I love this video! 💖
Thank you!!
@stateofkait I know this is an old video but by any chance do you remember you were talking about Diptyque Philosykos Eau de toilette or Eaux de parfum? 😓 Love all your videos ❤
The EDT
@@StateofKait ah thanks! You are the best🩷😘
this was so nice, like we were hanging out together! have you tried any of Snif's fragrances? I love their new one Strawberry Moon (it's a shocker that I do because I don't like sweet and "strawberry" makes me think it would be sweet, but it's more complex)!
Ooooo no I haven’t heard of that, adding to my list
Oriental isn't bad as long as you don't use it in reference to a people/person
Thanks!!
follow up to that, I googled it and in fragrance, the term “oriental” is supposed to be synonymous with “sensual.” That still seems wrong to me but I have absolutely no idea. 😅 Either way, I’ll just avoid it so I don’t make a mistake.
I don't think any fragrance will ever top santal 33 for me. It's just special.
It’s SO good.
Kait - have you tried the Clementine California dupe from Oil Perfumery?
No I haven’t! Thanks for letting me know about it
Have you tried Liis Bo? Or Ellis Brooklyn Apres? 😁
Yes, if you use the search icon on my channel you can always look up product reviews. Here's an ellis Brooklyn video ruclips.net/video/D-Sn51E1E2g/видео.html.
I own a sample of lis bo but it was just ok to me
@@StateofKait oooh thank you!! Loving your channel and how you describe and test products, SUBSCRIBED 🥰
Thankyou! 🥰🌈🦋🌺🌺🌺
