Fève Gourmande is going to be my Christmas present to myself (note to self: better start ordering!) I still haven't tried any Celine fragrances so that will be a New Year's resolution. 😄 Loved the video.
Adore Babycat, bought my bottle in France;and yes, love the incense, it is just so chic. I also love Gris Dior and my other favorite is Ambre Nuit. Bois d'Iris is absolutely my favorite Van Cleef and Coromandel is my favorite Chanel, although I do love Sycamore, 1957, and Le Lion. Love Infinite Sky, and love Feve Gourmand, although my favorite Guerlain is too difficult to define...I love them all! Agree about Vanilla Planifolia and I love all Celine fragrances...been enjoying Zouzou recently, and, as far as Armani, it is so hard...I love Ambre Eccentrico, Rose Milano, and the oldie but goodie Armani Code, which is a classic and so affordable Great video!
-- taking notes -- We are flying into NYC tomorrow; my husband is working there for a week, and I'll be working...my way through smelling all the exclusive/privee lines that aren't easily accessible where we live 🙈
So many great fragrances to love but my favorite is YSL Babycat. As a matter of fact, I just purchased an inspiration of this scent profile by Maison Alhambra called Ébène. "Thanks Chris for this amazing list." 🙂👍
Ok! I need to do a Cherry! And thank you so much! I haven’t got my bottles either (I ordered 4 or 5 for gifts )🤣but they just started shipping out so should be soon!
I adore your personality and taste for perfume. You’re the first RUclipsr I buy from to support, can’t wait to vanilla eclat to arrive! Also, I threw away the test strip when I tested Babycat and I cannot believe how many people loved it. Now it’s my comfort perfume. Having high fever now and I sprayed myself with Babycat ha…
Hi Chris! We have Coromandel and Gris Dior in common! Gourmand Coquin is so good but I don’t have a bottle. The rest I don’t but I’m sure they are amazing.
Hi, Chris! Stopped by to give the usual thumbs-up. Though I cannot afford any of these, the descriptions are very helpful in choosing dupes of those that sound especially intriguing. Vanille Planifolia sounds lovely. Have a great weekend! ~Cynthia
This is funny! Gris Dior is def my Dior favorite as well! Bois d'Iris is my favorite VC&A. Of course Coromandel is my favorite Chanel. Feve Gourmand is hands down my favorite Guerlain. I have to try Vanilla Plantifolia, my favorite Chloe is Nomade. I love Black Tie so much but it's sooio quiet on me that it makes me sad so my favorite is Parade. Such a fun video!
Lovely picks, Chris! I finally received my Babycat and I’m loving it. Funny enough in the beginning of my fragrance journey I was not a vanilla girl at all 😅🫣
I absolutely LOVE Babycat!!! I just bought my 2nd bottle and a bottle for my daughter for Christmas. I also love incense. My signature scent that I wore from its release in 1981 until last November--even though long discontinued--had an incense note, which I chuckled outloud when I relooked at the notes.
@ThePerfumeNest Gianni Versace for Women. It was discontinued after he was assassinated and Donatella took over his design house. It also has oakmoss in it as a fixative, and when IFRA came down on oakmoss in fragrances, it was about that same time. I still have a small stashof it, but my daughter encouraged me to explore other fragrances so I have built a "reputable" collection in a year and am having fun. (BTW...I'm a Texas native, too!)
Thanks Chris! I wore Babycat to work yesterday...sprayed lightly😁And I also have and absolutely LOVE Vanilla Planifolia & Gourmand Coquin. Looking for to your Niche version. Fav from each brand is almost the excitement of a top 10 for life video 😂
I find it really difficult to choose just one favorite from my top 3 -- Guerlaiin, Dior, Hermes -- but I'll just choose what I'm looking at now. Guerlain -- Mitsouko -- Just discovered how great this smells in the cold. Usually Shalimar is my winter Guerlain. Dior - - Gris Montaigne Hermes -- Ambre Narguile Givenchty -- I'd go with L'Interdit EDP Intense as well. YSL -- Black Opium Nuit Blanche -- discontinued unfortunately. Van Cleef & Arpels -- Rose Rouge Louis Vuitton -- Ombre Nomade -- I certainly can't afford bottles:) I generally buy samples, travel sprays or get dupes from Dua (They're very well done.) Lalique -- Lalique de Lalique -- An oldie but goody. I think Lalique is a great buy; good prices and, of course, great bottles! Bottega Veneta -- Bottega Veneta Eau Legere Cartier -- tie between La Panthere Legere and Le Baiser du Dragon
I don’t have any of these! Did get a decant of Dior G Dior and A Nuit! I will definitely be getting a bottle of of A Nuit for my upcoming birthday! Big 57 coming this month! Great video/picks. Definitely will be sniffing the Armani Vetiver Hiver. I love unisex freshies.looking stunning as always!!!!!
My favourite from your list are definitely L’interdit Intense, Babycat and Coromandel💛💛. I was gifted a decant of Celine and yes it’s so beautiful😍😍. I must check out Vanilla Planifolia when I get back from the holidays, sounds quite appealing to me🤔🤔. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
Another great one, Chris! Babycat and Bois D’Iris are my favorites too! I’d also add the unfortunately discontinued Gucci by Gucci EDP as an all-time favorite to the list. P.S. Can’t wait for Vanilla Éclat to arrive-it already has a 4.3 rating on Fragrantica! Not too shabby😊
Hi there!!! Yes I’m waiting for my full bottles also! 🤣 I bought 4 or 5 (can’t remember) for friends/ family/ co worker gifts…they just started shipping out so I’m excited!
Good morning Chris! ☕️🥰 Aha! I guessed your faves from Chloe and Celine! 😉😍✨🫶🏻 And I could picture the bottle for the Armani but I couldn't think of the name in time.. 🤭😆 This was fun video! 🎉 ❤
I adore Celine! Zouzou and Black Tie are big favorites. I’ve been mulling over a bottle of Zouzou but I’m trying hard to save money right now…oh the dilemma!
Instructive, authoritive and valuable list of "Best Of" frragrances from the most important designer houses, from the reliable and trustful nose ! Only, I really think that one Narciso Rodruguez fragrance deserves to be on this list. Anyway, this is a list to be stored in SmartPhone and have handy next tine in Sephora !
Oh my goodness I forgot NR!!!! Ahhhh! What is wrong with me! 🤦♀️Surprisingly I would have chosen the OG For Her. I’ve been through 3 bottles (edt and edp)
Hi Chris. My latest purchase (despite saying no more 100ml bottles) is Santal Musc from Narciso Rodriguez Oriental line. Will be lovely in the cooler weather. Have you tried any from that line? I haven’t heard too much about them. 😃🇦🇺
I have such great luck with all the Versace and Georgio Armani and Coach perfumes and bond 9 . I just love these brands and such an array of perfumes. If I had to pick only one for the rest of my life it would be Versace. I literally love each one
I really enjoy Black Tie, and Coromandel. Is the Armani vetiver better than guerlain vetiver? I wear that one after the shower almost daily (alternate with their grapefruit one, and ds durga grapefruit generation or steamed rainbow) while I’m trying to figure out my SOTD.
@ it’s EDT but I think they have a EDP also that looks similar bottle. This is the green one. I feel like it’s a splash scent, just to perk me up in the am but no real lasting power.
Oh dear. hopefully you sampled first. 🙏🏻I had 1970 unfortunately blind bought it thinking it would be a slam dunk based on notes. It did not smell good on me at all. But I know others who enjoy it as well. And the bottle is sooo pretty!
Thanks for stopping by! Tomorrow is going to be my niche edition! ❤️
Yay!!!
Looking forward
Love this! Cannot wait to get Vanilla Eclat! Super excited
Thank you so much! Tomorrow is the niche version! ❤️❤️Thx for stopping by! I hope you love Vanilla Éclat. 🙏🏻❤️❤️
Ditto 😉
@ aw thank you sooo much! 🙏🏻❤️
I trulyyyy don’t think there will ever be a chocolate perfume to trump Gourmand Coquin for me!! 😅🙌🏼🤤❤️😍
I agree 100%!🙌
Thank you ❤ we need niche houses
Tomorrow! ❤️❤️🙌
Wow-- you lucky woman! I have a few bottles and have sampled most of the rest. Dream collection! Fantastic choices. ❤
Aw thx so much for stopping by!!🙏🏻❤️❤️

@@ThePerfumeNest It's pretty good, I have no complaints. I'm sure it will get better with maceration.
How was the dupe ?
@carlenegayle8163 It's a great fragrance. These clone houses keep getting better and better. 👌
Thank you Chris. I would love a cherry video! Also, I'm so excited to receive your fragrance!! I ordered it he day it launched!

Hey my dear!!! Thank you so much! So wonderful to hear!!! ❤️🙌🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️
Guessed several correctly! Excited about tmrw's video! I just picked up the Chloe L'eau de Parfum intense during the Sephora sale and I'm loving that!
Hey there!!! Oh I need to swing by Sephora on my way home from F45 to smell it! Thx!!!!❤️❤️
@ThePerfumeNest So excited, literally just got my shipping notice for your perfume 🤗🥰😘
Lovely picks, Chris! I finally received my Babycat and I’m loving it. Funny enough in the beginning of my fragrance journey I was not a vanilla girl at all 😅🫣

Fun video! Those Guerlains are amazing..I only have samples. Oriental Brulant is another good one for sure. Looking forward to the niche edition!❤️
Hey sis! Is Oriental Brulant discontinued?
@ it might be but you might be able to get samples at the fragrance vault
I got Rifaacat Paris Corner as a dupe for Babycat, and I like this smell profile very much. OG is surely even better. Greetings😉💚
@iww6994 I have both, babycat and rifaacat and truly cannot sense much difference. They are so similar that is unreal! ❤️
I have both as well. I think Rifaacat is a nice alternative. It’s similar for sure. ❤️
Thanks Chris! I wore Babycat to work yesterday...sprayed lightly😁And I also have and absolutely LOVE Vanilla Planifolia & Gourmand Coquin. Looking for to your Niche version. Fav from each brand is almost the excitement of a top 10 for life video 😂
Oh my gosh! I chickened out on several houses. I need to do a part 2 (for niche). ❤️
I find it really difficult to choose just one favorite from my top 3 -- Guerlaiin, Dior, Hermes -- but I'll just choose what I'm looking at now.
Guerlain -- Mitsouko -- Just discovered how great this smells in the cold. Usually Shalimar is my winter Guerlain.
Dior - - Gris Montaigne
Hermes -- Ambre Narguile

Hey there!!! What a fantastic list!!!! Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
Happy Saturday Chris. Great choices as always.
Hey Faith! Happy Saturday!!
Great video 🫶 I've had my eye on a few of these. Looking forward to your Niche picks.
Hey there thx! Ok tomorrow!
I don’t have any of these! Did get a decant of Dior G Dior and A Nuit! I will definitely be getting a bottle of of A Nuit for my upcoming birthday! Big 57 coming this month! Great video/picks. Definitely will be sniffing the Armani Vetiver Hiver. I love unisex freshies.looking stunning as always!!!!!
Hey sweetie!!! Oh happy birthday!!?? Ambre Nuit is gorgeous also. I don’t know why I don’t have a bottle. 🤣
@ maybe because you have too many! Lol! Jk. Thanks for the response
Great list, I love Spirituese Double Vanille by Guerlain, Gabrielle-original. Coromandel and Celine are in my wishlist ❤🎉
It was almost impossible with Guerlain! And I just splurged for the Planifolia 21 extrait! 🤦♀️😮😂
My favourite from your list are definitely L’interdit Intense, Babycat and Coromandel💛💛. I was gifted a decant of Celine and yes it’s so beautiful😍😍.
I must check out Vanilla Planifolia when I get back from the holidays, sounds quite appealing to me🤔🤔. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰
Oh yes I’d love to hear your take on
Another great one, Chris!
Babycat and Bois D’Iris are my favorites too! I’d also add the unfortunately discontinued Gucci by Gucci EDP as an all-time favorite to the list.
P.S. Can’t wait for Vanilla Éclat to arrive-it already has a 4.3 rating on Fragrantica! Not too shabby😊
Hi there!!! Yes I’m waiting for my full bottles also! 🤣 I bought 4 or 5 (can’t remember) for friends/ family/ co worker gifts…they just started shipping out so I’m excited!
Good morning Chris! ☕️🥰
Aha! I guessed your faves from Chloe and Celine! 😉😍✨🫶🏻
And I could picture the bottle for the Armani but I couldn't think of the name in time.. 🤭😆
This was fun video! 🎉 ❤
@@tammyroxanne. yay!!! You know me don’t you??!!❤️❤️
I adore Celine! Zouzou and Black Tie are big favorites. I’ve been mulling over a bottle of Zouzou but I’m trying hard to save money right now…oh the dilemma!
Same!!!! I’ll probably just start with the travel size
@ someone is sending me a decant as I type this!!
I want to try Vanille Planifolia i've heard some many good things about it Thanks for sharing Chris.
I’ll send you a decant! I have a Mya Njie discovery set. Would you like it?

Yes!!! I used to have a bottle of it years ago. It’s gorgeous. I’m glad it’s still available!!!
Just got my email sayin Vanilla Eclat is on the way, can't wait:))

Oh yes! Versace some of my first loves!
Oh! Fabulous idea for a video!!! ❤❤❤❤
Uh…. Gourmand Coquin is a love!
Yes! Babycat is SO beautiful! ❤
Oh I didn’t realize you liked gourmands??
I have another box for your students
@ Thanks to YOU I’ve started to like them! ❤️❤️❤️🤣😂
I really enjoy Black Tie, and Coromandel. Is the Armani vetiver better than guerlain vetiver? I wear that one after the shower almost daily (alternate with their grapefruit one, and ds durga grapefruit generation or steamed rainbow) while I’m trying to figure out my SOTD.

@ ah yes ok I don’t think they smell similar.
Hello my beautiful Chris! I hope one day I will have my Babycat 😭😭😭
Hey sweetie!!!!❤️
What do you think about the Armani si line?
Really nice! At one point I had 3-4 flankers. But I wore them for so long I stopped wearing and repurchasing them as I finished bottles.
Immediately clicked. Immediately liked. Immediately commented. 😅
Aw thank you!!!!!❤️
❤
Hi!!!
@ThePerfumeNest So excited for your own perfume that you made!! What an amazing thing to happen!! Congratulations Chris!! 🙏❤️🌹🥰
Hey i am best thumbnail designer can i maked Thumbnails for you
Ok thx!!!
Oh adult hot chocolate I think that's how I gained 10 pounds during covid 😂
😂😂❤️❤️❤️
I was so so in a wait for Guerlain’s Chocolate to get my hands on.
Then I was sooo dissapointed. No better chocolate than 1970 Rosendo Meteo 😐
Oh dear. hopefully you sampled first. 🙏🏻I had 1970 unfortunately blind bought it thinking it would be a slam dunk based on notes. It did not smell good on me at all. But I know others who enjoy it as well. And the bottle is sooo pretty!
