    Hi Queen!! I am not a huge holiday person and I think two years in retail and four years working in a restaurant during college took the magic out of Christmas songs for me 😂 but hearing you talk about the different features and flavors of the holidays and talking about lyrics and attaching them to different scent profiles is honestly adding some of the magic back in to the holiday season! 🥰♥️ I loved this entire video and hearing you describe everything so beautifully and creatively! Thank you so much for sharing!! 💕💖

    Peppermint is a scent I always associate with the holidays and Christmas 🎄. It’s not necessarily from a perfume, but from peppermint mochas, twisted peppermint candle from B&BW (actually, they do have twisted peppermint in a body spray). Vanilla is another scent, and we know there are too many to name, but Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere is a good one. Venom of Love by Navitus is a Christmas scent for me, personally, because it smells like chocolate covered 🍒, and I always bought those as a Christmas present 🎁 for my grandfather. Loved this video, Veronica!

    For me, it's dark dark scents, because this is literally the darkest time of the year, and also I think of spicy stewed fruits, I get stewed fruits and spices in Serge Lutens Arabie. I think of dark vanillas, as in Montale's Dark Vanilla and Dior Addict. I also think fir tree/ balsamic/ dark green notes, as in Dasein Winter, and Serge Lutens Fille en Aiguilles, Nishane Ani, etc. I also think of beeswax, because when I was a child we always had beeswax candles in an advent wreath in my house, and my mother put out beeswax candles everywhere with red velvet ribbons ried to the candlesticks, so for that I think of Zoologist Bee.

    • @VeronicaSays
      @VeronicaSays  Год назад

    Wow, your videos are always so much fun! 😄 This year I would say my Christmasy fragrances are Caramel Vanille by Massimiliano Torti which is a warm, sweet and cozy cloud, and although there is no rum among the notes it reminds me of a Mon Cheri, which is very common here in Italy during Christmas holidays; the other one is totally different, Teint de Neige by Lorenzo Villoresi, a powdery sugary bomb which reminds me of snow, no more no less 🏔❄❄❄ I hope you'll enjoy your holidays too! 😊🎄🎄🎄

I also think of my Michael Kors Twilight Shimmer, Desnuda Ungaro which smells like cardamom, Hidden Fantasy and my Avon Haiku because it’s shaped like a Christmas tree!

    Love this. Oh how I remember smelling the roasting chestnuts when shopping downtown in Philadelphia. All of the big department stores of that time (Wanamakers, Gimbels, Lit Brothers and Macy’s) had the most amazing Christmas window displays and the scents just put you in such a good mood. I think that’s why I like the Winter candle the most at BBW because it has the most memorable scents (extremely strong) that take me back to that time. Now I will go through my stash and find a fragrance to top it all off! Happy Holidays!❤

The colder it is outside, the better. Lately I have been enjoying this perfume called Wish which I didnt think I liked....its just right for december.

    Hello Veronica,
    I love the theme of this video! It's a fantastic idea for the month of December. I love the smell of Balsam Fir over the holiday season. I like to get the Fraser Fir candles and home fragrance items for my home at this time of year. I love cinnamon, mandarine, ginger and all the baking spices. Fragrance wise, cinnamon and amber fragrances are amazing for the holidays. I think options for this could be challenging... But Tobacco Vanille for the vanilla and clove, Plum in Cognac for the winter fruits and booze, Bengal Rouge for the cinnamon, amber and vanilla, Annubis for the incense and dark hemlock, Aqua Allegoria Mandarine and Basil for the oranges, Ex Idolo Love and Crime for the chocolate notes, SL 5'O Clock Gingembre for the ginger and tea, SL Feminite Du Bois for the ceder, cinnamon and plum. I think I could just keep listing fragrances... I am going to stop now because I could be here forever! Thanks again for your video!

    Hey! Great video! Pomander balls (cloves poked into clementines/oranges) is one scent I love to smell around Christmas. I love Boo by CJ Scents because it totally embodies the scent of the whole Fall and Christmas season. The notes are blood orange, pumpkin and sandalwood. Strange how there are no cloves in Boo yet I get the feel of a pomander ball. You have some great ideas in here. I've gotten into indies lately and there are so many beautiful scents that I've found for this season. This was an awesome video. Haus of Gloi has one called Winter Divinity and it's peppermint and vanilla and if it performed better, I'd splurge for a 30 ML EDP. It's gorgeous but more of a skin scent, if you enjoy skin scents. Edit: you are mentioning so many I'd love to try, especially that Merchant of Venice one!! And eggnog-yesss! Haus of Gloi also has Eggnoggin' which I have in pumpkin butter and the scent is AMAZING layered under so many of my fall/winter perfumes. For a butter, it's pretty intense and long lasting!
