Feel better Noura and family! I think there's another distinction to be made: synthetic materials does not necessarily mean low quality. It might require a different skill set or way of working with the raw materials. I'm not an expert in perfumery, but I am when it comes to textiles: there's horribly cheap synthetic fabrics, and there are high quality, high performing, amazing synthetic fabrics. Brands that smell harsh/low quality/unrefined to me: PDM (they use something in many of their perfumes that smells very harsh to me and lingers for a long time), Xerjoff, BDK, many from Gritti (I totally fell for the hype). Kayali gets you with the first 30 seconds of top notes before the scent changes into something way less exciting with the performance of a body spray. Edit: Thomas Kosmala, Montale. Brands that smell high quality to me: Guerlain, Chanel, MFK, Sisley, Acqua di Parma, Diptyque, Dior, Van Cleef Arpels, Lancome.
Hi from Portugal 🤗 I love Amouage Material , I’m on my third sample,but I don’t have the courage to pay that much . I don’t know what it is about Valaya e Delina that I can’t stand ,after trying them I had to wash my arm and rub coffee grounds on it to get rid of the smell 😳. At the moment , I’m in love with Lune Feline and I’m happy that I got a good discount last month . I wish you a speedy recovery and I,m really enjoying your videos .
Hi Noura, hope you feel better soon! I recall atelier cologne always claimed they were 90-95% natural. House of Sillage is all packaging and no quality. I agree that perfumes de marly is very synthetic. Your reaction to the cats was really funny!
Could you suggest where to get individual perfume samples in Europe,I’m in Portugal and I’ve only been able to buy discovery sets . Thank you for your videos
Get well soon! I am too ill along with my son, can relate 😂 Good points in the video, I agree on quality being described as not smelling harsh/synthetic unless there's some artistic idea behind it like with some more avangard scents. Chanel, Guerlain seem to not compromise on their quality along with some niche brands - Francesca Bianchi, Histoires de Parfums, Lubin, Aqua di Parma, Serge Lutens, Frederic Malle
I really appreciate your thoughtful comment! It’s great to see we share an understanding of quality scents. Sending positive vibes for your and your son's recovery!
In the end a messed up day is a day. this video was also unplanned but it covered an excellent topic. High quality : Profumum roma, Kilian, Amouage, Premiere Matiere, Guerlain, Memo Paris, Diptyque, Nicolai Parfumeur, Ormande Jayne Hyped one, overpriced and low quality Bond no 9, PMD, MFK, Byredo, Initio, Xerjoff, Fragrance du bois, BDK… 😊
Hi! I would like you talking more about quality fragances please. Quality brands to me Could be Amouage, Memo and I just notice sintetic feeling in PDM ;(
Hi Noura, for me personally high quality brands are Memo Paris, Matiere Premiere, Guerlain, Amouage. I don't enjoy Xerjoff, Simone Andreoli, Fugazzi, Mancera, Montale
Hopefully you don’t get super sick. High quality: Memo and Aqua di Parma. Tom Ford and Creed are brands with outrageous prices that perhaps have some quality perfumes but mainly you’re paying for the brand name. And I agree with PDM. They abuse with their synthetics and that’s why they made longer lasting and louder perfumes.
In my opinion high quality are Guerlain, Dior, Gyvenchy, BDK, Gritti, Serge Lutens, Frederic Malle, Vilhelm Parfumerie. I hope I’m right, because other way it’ll be disappointing
I wonder if you tried anything from Meo Fusciuni house or will maybe cover it among the Italian niche series? It's quite hard to come by but from what i've tested it's so interesting!
Feel better Noura and family!

Thanks Noura! I hope you feel better soon. I feel that Guerlain & House of Bo are of highest quality.
Ooooo, yes to a lip balm video. I’m a sucker for good lip products. I love the fenty lip mask because it’s very thick and lasts on the lips 👄 ❤

Hi Noura! I was on the quest for a lip balm last week and I ended up buying one by Blume but I’d be very interested by your favorites!

No I never tried anything from the house to be honest. Will check it if it's easy to find. Thank you 🥰
Years ago I read that 70-80% of the cost is the packaging. Get well soon!
