Disclaimer! This is a long video so if you’re not into long videos definitely move along haha:). Have you guys done any recent declutters? If so what did you get rid of?
The Simple Chic Life yes I’ve decluttered the following: Chanel Coco Noir (performance issues, but I still wanted to feel like it’s close to me so I gifted it to my mom) Narciso Rouge (I prefer Poudree & Narciso so I gifted that to my mom also) Ralph Lauren Woman Intense (prefer the original, this one smells generic) Bottega Venetta edp (watery, leather skin scent, I wanted more oomph & richness) Guerlain La Petite Robe Noir Black Perfecto (beautiful sweet cherried rose drydown but can’t get past the rubber tire opening) Fragrenza Caramelle Rosse ( baccarat rouge dupe & I already acquired the original) Dior Pure Poison (clean, laundry, scent which is not my jam) Givenchy L’ange Noir (smokey lipsticky scent but I’m happy with just my 10mL decant rather than a full 2.5oz bottle) 8 fragrances, I think I did pretty well
The Simple Chic Life yea I’m very attached to my Chanels (as you are) so I figured the best compromise was to gift to a close family member. I don’t work in an office so I don’t see the use for it in my collection unfortunately :/. I came to terms with Chanel being my favorite house for classy, daytime scents instead of deep sexy scents.
@@thesimplechiclife it's a pleasure! Anyways, make sure to try it before considering to buy it, it's a strong one and definitely not suited for a blind buy
And let's add to this - we suggest not blind buying your men. No such thing as a "safe blind buy" - thats like online dating and being like - yep! He'll work fine! * turns out to be terrible * lol
@I comment Everywhere I would recommend you to smell the different versions of poison girl because the edt and edp don‘t smell the same at all. And then there is a completely other version of poison girl which I think is called „unexpected“
I’m so amazed by how large your perfume collection has gotten in such a short period of time. Seems like you’re comfortable at 50-ish unique perfumes. Love seeing your journey with buys and declutter!
I didn't care for it when I first purchased it either. Its ok, I think I'm the only person who doesn't care for Sofia by Sofia Vergara, and to me it doesn't smell like Coco Mademoiselle lol like everyone seems to think! ;)
I love everything about Coco Mademoiselle except that hideous patchouli note. Everything else I love, but the patchouli smells so dirty on my skin. I recently saw that there is a new version coming out called L'Eau Privée without the patchouli note, so I'm crossing my fingers for it!
I don't know why, I have some problem with Alien! I don't hate it. I wear it, Sometimes i like it may be, but I just can't "LOVE" it ! 😄 And thank you for your thoughts on Paco Rabanne. I once asked. I love Black Xs too! 😃♥
Chanel chance eau tendre is my favorite scent of all time! (And my husbands). There’s just something so refreshing and intoxicating about it at the same time
I saw the only one intense in the thumbnail and was 🏃🏻♀️👀. I bought that one last night and had to make sure you weren’t decluttering it! I bought samples of Olympea, Olympea Intense, and TF Noir Pour Femme too. I can’t wait to sniff everything!
Dont feel bad about decluttering La Vie Est Belle. Personally I did not like it the first time I smelled it and never bought it. (I actually thought there was something wrong with me🙈) Its not a bad perfume, its actually very pretty but its just not for me🥰
I agree with your comment about gold couture! There’s really nothing quite like it. My husband loves it I’m guessing it’s that caramel note that men love. I wish there was something similar, maybe a bit grown up sans the gaudy bottle. I love it to death but the bottle is such an eyesore 😂
I have to try the Flowerbomb EDP. I have the EDT and looooooove the scent but it doesn’t last on me at all. Obsessed with perfumes but my skin is such a fragrance drinker, I have to use intense fragrances or overspray (including on clothing).
I really don't know what it is with my skin and Chanel fragrances. They only last 1-2 hours on me. But I like Chance, Coco Noir (?), no. 5 l'eau & premiere 💖
Such an enjoyable and easy to watch video. I'll probably watch it all over again once it's finished. And a declutter sounds like a good idea for my collection too 👌
What do you think of D&G the only one? The original? I thought it was too sweet at first but when I use it I just love it and I sort of crave using it. The only one intense I thought I loved but in fact I never reach for it and it doesn’t make me feel good in the same way as the only one original.
Dior Addict is my signature fragrance. I purchased it for a very special formal Christmas party the year it was released and each time I run out, I buy a new bottle because I can't be without it. It's amazing so I'm not surprised it was one of your keepers.
Hi , I love SJP lovely and of course Delina, Nomade, Chloe too.I would like to suggest Guerlain Idylle, abit hard to find these days but lovely white floral powdery musky.I am surprised not many people talk about it. Con is logitivity not very good
Hello from over the pond. I have watched a couple of your videos, you have a very pleasant way of addressing your topics. just one little detail... the original Chanel Chance is actually the Eau de Toilette version. The EdP was introduced almost 2 years after. The original EdT has been one of my faves for the last 16 years. Happy moving :)
I need your opinion!...I have first kiss original, I find it too tart, there is something I don’t like about it! Would you suggest the exclusive or it is too similar? Thanks
I feel like I want to declutter about 90% of my perfumes collection. I started to collect perfume for a wrong reason and those perfumes remind me / taking me back to that moment. Anyway, I would like to recommend the Nobile 1942 Perdizione if you like sweet perfume. The opening is a bit sharp thanks to the lavender note, but the dry down is really sweet and reminds me so much of Kilian Love don't be shy. The price is much cheaper than Kilian.
Hi! I was really nervous whenever you post declutter videos but it really makes sense when you do it to be honest. Fragrances are to be worn and enjoyed. Just a suggestion, you can giveaway the fragrances as well to your subscribers. Your channel is growing really fast ❤️. We would be happy to have a chance to experience what you once loved :)
@@thesimplechiclife another idea for the future would be to donate them to women’s shelters! women recovering and adapting back into a society is unimaginably hard, im sure perfume would be a huge confidence boost! Just a thought:) love ur videossss
What nail polish color.are you wearing? It's a Beautiful neutral. I love Hypnotic Poison, Tom Ford Noir Pour Femme, Paco Rabanne Olympea, the Lancome La Vie Est Belle, Lancome La Vie Est Belle Eclat and Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle in your collection. I have them and they work for me. I didnt like Delina but enjoyed Delina Exclusif.
thank you! I'm not sure as this video was a while back - usually it's one of the nude blush colors from Essie or Sally Hansen! These days I always tell people in my videos what color I"m wearing.
LVEB is a good basic starter scent, but check out its many flankers, too. I personally enjoy the En Rose and Intensement versions more than the original.
I will have to agree with the Pink Sugar, I like it, but I just can’t bring myself to wear it, I actually gave it to my 14 yr old. She absolutely loves it!! BTW no subscriber, I am a makeup hoarder who is now really getting into fragrances and am so glad I found your channel!!🙌💜
I don't own alot either. Just starting to build my collection and getting more into it. However, i have over the years given perfumes away to my family that i bought but after wearing i don't like anymore. However, if i have this type of expensive collections, i would find it hard tp let go og any, lol!
Great video! I have many fragrances. I luv all of them. Granted, I like some more than others, but each one is unique & special in its own way. I just use one bottle at a time and I wear the same scent until I finish the entire bottle. I find this helps me from acquiring too many fragrances at the same time.
Same! It’s magical at first if you like sweet but i’m on the last few drops and I can’t bring myself to finish it 😩😖 what I did once I started getting overwhelmed by it I sprayed it two times in the air and then pass by, it helps a lot doesn’t give me as much of a headache anymore
I have a problem with both delinas hahah Delina is too sour, while Exclusif is too powdery. I feel like if I mixed both Delinas it would be the perfect balance, but I don’t have the funds to buy both 🤣
Another great declutter video. I bought First Kiss based on your recommendation and love it. But really like Delina too. Do you prefer First Kiss to Delina?
Just to clarify I've never bought or recommended First Kiss - only the First Kiss Exclusive. Its supposed to be a dupe for Delina exclusif. I don't like First Kiss; and Delina is better than the dupe First Kiss. I have yet to smell Delina Exclusif, but I'm sure it would be better than the dupe just based on what I already have seen :)
its hard for me to decide - my favorite Chance is the EDP followed by the EDT - I really like Eau Vive, Tendre is ok - a bit too generic/fruity for me - I'm still debating the Eau Fraiche even though I've not purchased it yet. :). And isn't it funny how men like the Juicy Coutures? haha:)
It might be tough to sell just because you can already buy it for less than $20 - so the shipping might make it not worth it - I think if you sold it with something else at the same time and asked less than the current market price it might go? :). Hope that helps.
The Simple Chic Life thank you for your response. I bought it on Amazon.ca for $40 including shipping. So, I’m guessing I won’t get that back. I tried to find it in Walmart, Shoppers, but could not find it anywhere in store in BC!
Because I love Chanel.. I can’t bring myself to get rid of it especially since I have only had it during lockdown and haven’t even had a chance to wear it out yet. On skin it doesn’t last.. But I love my Chanel’s :)
Hi I really enjoy your videos I ordered some of the Oakcha perfumes and their on the way do you know of any summer fragrances that give the same vibes as Hypnotic Poison or Poison Girl I really enjoy the smell of those Thanks again for the Oakcha recommendation 😊
How would you compare Chanel number 5 L’eau with eau premiere? I haven’t had a chance to smell them in person. Which one do you prefer? Btw I’m loving the Chanel coco edt it’s so gorgeous! 🥰 I also feel the same way about Delina. I have Delina, Delina exclusif and Meliora that I don’t want anymore! I regret purchasing them
hi! :). L'eau and eau Premiere are totally different. They both have the original no 5 aldehyde smell - that strong, airy, crisp smell - but premiere is powdery and soft, more like the original, the l'eau is much lighter with a mega dose of citruses. L;eau is good for warm weather and daytime - premiere would make a good signature scent, office scent, all year round. :)
I'm the same way I don't want fragrances in my collection that I don't love or that I don't use, I always say I'm Not a fragrance collector I am afraid line lover.... so everything in my collection has to be used or it can't be in my collection. I typically don't buy fragrances that I don't love 😍 great video.
Thanks Cheraye. I need to do that with my Chanels; I don't wear a couple of them very often - but I think I will at some point. Whats your opinion on the No 5? For me I love to have it just to have it - I feel it's so iconic, and I enjoy just sniffing it sometimes or wearing it to bed if I'm in the mood. BTW I love your collection - if I could have one girls collection - itd be yours lol :):):):)
Hi! MJ decadence: some people use to associate it to Mugler Aura. I def hate Aura! but I’d like to buy Decadence (I can’t try it before, here stores doesn’t have it). do you think it is similar to Aura ?
yes I've compared it to aura myself before but in the end it's very different - aura is more green, bizarre; decadence is more amber sweet mass pleasing:). I prefer Decadence for sure but that's my personal preference:):):)
Hey, I was just curious if Chanel Chance EDP is worth it or Gucci 2? I'm more into gourmands but I'm really willing to try out chanel for the first time as a blind purchase!
I have not smelld the Gucci II - I wish I had! I have heard so many amazing things about it. I blind bought most of my Chanels because I could not smell them during earlier COVID. But the Chance's I smelled in person once things started to open up and I was in love at first sniff.
Love how you were afraid of putting too much perfumes in the box cuz you thought they would break mean while Mila le blanc just catapultes her perfumes across the room😂😂😂😂
The new reformulation of Hypnotic Poison doesn’t last, that one you have last but the new ones don’t! How much i loved the old Hypnotic Poison, Dior killed this one. 😭
Hello Cody..... Great video as usual. Have you tried Valentino Valentina in Pink? Saw Delicious Delight's video on it and I wanted your opinion as well before buying. 😁
Wow ! I was shocked to hear u say Prada Candy doesnt project well! I'm a perfume lover like u and all I can say is of all the perfumes I've EVER worn Prada Candy projects the Absolute best ! I can take a shower snd go to bed and still smell it on my wrist. Somehow u got a bad lot or maybe its the oils in your skin. Perhaps u just need to give it one more try maybe in a roller ball cause it is a stunning gorgeous sophisticated fragrance of which I get compliments everytime I wear it. I do agree about the cap tho. Its awkward and yes it doesnt spray all that well but it will never ever keep me from purchasing. It was love at first smell at Neiman Marcus I believe and still is. Thank u for your reviews, very thot provoking in a real good way.
I've heard some people say it projects well and others claim it doesn't. I think alot of factors go into it, but for me I wasn't nuts about it. I love the fragrance itself :)
I've only had most of these perfumes for less than 6 months - I keep them in a box in a cool dark place, and I only keep the ones out on my dresser that I'm currently wearing or enjoying. After that they go back in the dark and cool :)
Hi Cody. Love your videos. Would you consider doing a fragrance swap? I have Elie Saab Girl of Now Forever 3 oz. It doesn’t vibe with my skin chemistry. I would love your La Vie Est Belle. Thanks
Hi Sylvia, unfortunately my La Vie Est Belle is gone - but I don't mind considering other swaps. If you want to DM me on instagram that seems to be what works best - or email if you dont have Instagram. codymarieb@gmail.com :)
I just purchased La Vie Est Belle and I love it because of the patchouli, I also love Rouge, it is so so good! I had to return the Goldea and I was sad because it smells amazing but the performance is so terrible on my skin. Like its gone within minutes, I really enjoyed your video. It was calming.
Prada Candy stays forever on the clothes, but not on the skin, but its still one of my holy grail perfume, had 4 or 5 bottles since it came out, dont wear it that often today, just because i have a pretty big fragrance collection. Love your video
Is anyone interested in trading/ buying Mon paris by YSL? I have a 3.4 FL oz plus a travel size that are almost new, it’s a good fragrance but I’m getting into more fresh scents. I also don’t like to collect fragrances just have a few that I really love. Please let me know 🥰❤️
LaVieEsteBelle . I bought bottles of the fakes sprays because I love sweet perfumes. I didn't know they were LVEB inspired. by the time I bought the real one from watching videos I was upset that I had the fakes all along. I love sweet perfumes so this kinda worked out. Lol I really do love my LVEB. 🤗
I dropped it and broke the atomizer and it no longer sprays. I sold it to someone who wanted it for decants:( it makes me sad but I took it as a sign for me to actually wear my perfumes instead of just keeping them on a tray lol.
Yes not only longevity but projection in general. :/. I'm sad about it too but I have powdery perfumes that just perform much better like Valentina Poudre! :)
I noticed the Givenchy loose face powder in the Sell/Swap Bin. Is that not a good powder? Your cat is lovely! What is her name? I hope she does more cameos on your Channel 😄🌟
Its good but I just don't use powders really at all - I have only tried it once. :). My kitty's name is Pyongchang - I didn't name her lol. it was sort of an inside joke because when the Olympics were in Peyongchang my daughter at the time could not pronounce it and someone joked maybe we should call the cat that - and it just stuck lol. First because it made us giggle and now it's just her name lol:)
I purchased la petite robe noir & I hate it 🤦🏽♀️ the cherry note is too much for me l. It’s currently on my Mercari. Along with narcisco poudre I just can’t grasp it.
Disclaimer! This is a long video so if you’re not into long videos definitely move along haha:). Have you guys done any recent declutters? If so what did you get rid of?
The Simple Chic Life yes I’ve decluttered the following:
Chanel Coco Noir (performance issues, but I still wanted to feel like it’s close to me so I gifted it to my mom)
Narciso Rouge (I prefer Poudree & Narciso so I gifted that to my mom also)
Ralph Lauren Woman Intense (prefer the original, this one smells generic)
Bottega Venetta edp (watery, leather skin scent, I wanted more oomph & richness)
Guerlain La Petite Robe Noir Black Perfecto (beautiful sweet cherried rose drydown but can’t get past the rubber tire opening)
Fragrenza Caramelle Rosse ( baccarat rouge dupe & I already acquired the original)
Dior Pure Poison (clean, laundry, scent which is not my jam)
Givenchy L’ange Noir (smokey lipsticky scent but I’m happy with just my 10mL decant rather than a full 2.5oz bottle)
8 fragrances, I think I did pretty well
Wow yes you did!! I was thinking about decutteirng my coco noir as well just due to performance. WHo knows? :)
The Simple Chic Life yea I’m very attached to my Chanels (as you are) so I figured the best compromise was to gift to a close family member. I don’t work in an office so I don’t see the use for it in my collection unfortunately :/. I came to terms with Chanel being my favorite house for classy, daytime scents instead of deep sexy scents.

@@llntt101 I agree. Delina is not so special to me, but Delina Exclusif is quite good.
I smelled delina last year and brought a sample home, I thought it was horrid and tart, frankly it upset my nose lol
I have a problem with both delinas hahah Delina is too sour, while Exclusif is too powdery. I feel like if I mixed both Delinas it would be the perfect balance, but I don’t have the funds to buy both 🤣
@@PS-fk5zv frankly delina is just overhyped, super popular in the fragrance community which makes no sense
Another great declutter video. I bought First Kiss based on your recommendation and love it. But really like Delina too. Do you prefer First Kiss to Delina?
Just to clarify I've never bought or recommended First Kiss - only the First Kiss Exclusive. Its supposed to be a dupe for Delina exclusif. I don't like First Kiss; and Delina is better than the dupe First Kiss. I have yet to smell Delina Exclusif, but I'm sure it would be better than the dupe just based on what I already have seen :)
@cody-marie Have you tried all of the Chance flankers? If so, which is your favorite? I also only have JC Gold because my husband loves it :)
its hard for me to decide - my favorite Chance is the EDP followed by the EDT - I really like Eau Vive, Tendre is ok - a bit too generic/fruity for me - I'm still debating the Eau Fraiche even though I've not purchased it yet. :). And isn't it funny how men like the Juicy Coutures? haha:)
Where did you get vert malachite from? I would love to try that one!
That’s not de cluttering , youre keeping it all 😂
💕 🤗
What is it with guys and Viva la Juicy's fragrances????
I don't know - I always wonder the same thing lol.
I loved EVERYTHING about this video. No more room or time for fragrances that are just "a'ight". I love for my eyes to roll...LOL. Thanks for sharing!
Girl u basically kept all🤣🤣 but I don’t blame you there all amazing!!🥰
I blind bought Rihanna’s Reb’l Fleur, and it’s not for me! But, I cannot seem to sell it at all! Any tips?
It might be tough to sell just because you can already buy it for less than $20 - so the shipping might make it not worth it - I think if you sold it with something else at the same time and asked less than the current market price it might go? :). Hope that helps.
The Simple Chic Life thank you for your response. I bought it on Amazon.ca for $40 including shipping. So, I’m guessing I won’t get that back. I tried to find it in Walmart, Shoppers, but could not find it anywhere in store in BC!
Oh shoot. Well, keep trying! Eventually everything sells that’s what I’ve learned over the years! With fragrance, furniture etc lol:)
You could try swapping it!
strawberryfields81 where might I be able to do that? I live in BC
I declutter my collection often. I'm thinking about decluttering my bottle of Delina also. Thanks for sharing.
hey, when you declutter, where do you sell them on?
Mary Jane Obiyo same question Sarah! Where
@@maryjaneobiyo265 I use Mercari.
@@talonconrad1426 Mercari
Sarah Eli it is for America only? I live Europe
Why didnt you get rid of coco noir if the performance is bad???
Because I love Chanel.. I can’t bring myself to get rid of it especially since I have only had it during lockdown and haven’t even had a chance to wear it out yet. On skin it doesn’t last.. But I love my Chanel’s :)
The Simple Chic Life haha lol! That’s so relatable 🤣
It lasts really good on me, can smell it the next day too🙃
I can’t imagine it’d be easy to part with a Chanel. I’m hoping to buy my first one soon!!
I loveee the narciso by narciso! Do u think i will love the poudree?
I think you would! I feel the Poudree is a hard one not to like :)
@@thesimplechiclife Thank u for the reply!! 💕
Hi I really enjoy your videos I ordered some of the Oakcha perfumes and their on the way do you know of any summer fragrances that give the same vibes as Hypnotic Poison or Poison Girl I really enjoy the smell of those Thanks again for the Oakcha recommendation 😊
Hmmm summer fragrances that smell like Hypnotic Poison - I'd have to think on that one! Not off the top of my head sorry :):)
The Simple Chic Life OK Thanks 😊
How would you compare Chanel number 5 L’eau with eau premiere? I haven’t had a chance to smell them in person. Which one do you prefer? Btw I’m loving the Chanel coco edt it’s so gorgeous! 🥰 I also feel the same way about Delina. I have Delina, Delina exclusif and Meliora that I don’t want anymore! I regret purchasing them
hi! :). L'eau and eau Premiere are totally different. They both have the original no 5 aldehyde smell - that strong, airy, crisp smell - but premiere is powdery and soft, more like the original, the l'eau is much lighter with a mega dose of citruses. L;eau is good for warm weather and daytime - premiere would make a good signature scent, office scent, all year round. :)
Love your perfume videos. Would love it too if you made videos talking about the notes of the perfumes
I'm the same way I don't want fragrances in my collection that I don't love or that I don't use, I always say I'm Not a fragrance collector I am afraid line lover.... so everything in my collection has to be used or it can't be in my collection. I typically don't buy fragrances that I don't love 😍 great video.
Thanks Cheraye. I need to do that with my Chanels; I don't wear a couple of them very often - but I think I will at some point. Whats your opinion on the No 5? For me I love to have it just to have it - I feel it's so iconic, and I enjoy just sniffing it sometimes or wearing it to bed if I'm in the mood. BTW I love your collection - if I could have one girls collection - itd be yours lol :):):):)
I totally understand when a perfume doesn’t perform it’s not worth it bc they r pricey. Great video!
Thank you!:)!
Never removing coco mademoiselle from my favorites ,love since 2008.❤
Me neither!:) 💕
Hi! MJ decadence: some people use to associate it to Mugler Aura. I def hate Aura! but I’d like to buy Decadence (I can’t try it before, here stores doesn’t have it).
do you think it is similar to Aura ?
yes I've compared it to aura myself before but in the end it's very different - aura is more green, bizarre; decadence is more amber sweet mass pleasing:). I prefer Decadence for sure but that's my personal preference:):):)
I love all the ways of how you’re describing in every vdo. From a huge fan oy yours
Thank you so much!
Hey, I was just curious if Chanel Chance EDP is worth it or Gucci 2? I'm more into gourmands but I'm really willing to try out chanel for the first time as a blind purchase!
I have not smelld the Gucci II - I wish I had! I have heard so many amazing things about it. I blind bought most of my Chanels because I could not smell them during earlier COVID. But the Chance's I smelled in person once things started to open up and I was in love at first sniff.
Hello and thanks for your wonderful videos :) Can I ask you where are you selling your perfumes?
I sell privately usually. U can email me or dm me on Instagram :)
@@thesimplechiclife thank you for your response ♥️
Love how you were afraid of putting too much perfumes in the box cuz you thought they would break mean while Mila le blanc just catapultes her perfumes across the room😂😂😂😂
hahaha i know!! She must have alot of space on her bed lol I always had a mini heart attack when i watched her toss her perfumes lol
Hmm i think i wanna go check out No. 5 eau premiere it sounds lovely!
The new reformulation of Hypnotic Poison doesn’t last, that one you have last but the new ones don’t! How much i loved the old Hypnotic Poison, Dior killed this one. 😭
i can’t describe a single one of my perfumes, let alone ALL of them 😭😂
Same here 😂😂😂
Hello Cody..... Great video as usual. Have you tried Valentino Valentina in Pink? Saw Delicious Delight's video on it and I wanted your opinion as well before buying. 😁
I haven't tried it yet no - but I've heard such good things about it. Tempted to buy a bottle!
Always so happy when I see your new video💞💞💞
Thank you! :):):)
Wow ! I was shocked to hear u say Prada Candy doesnt project well! I'm a perfume lover like u and all I can say is of all the perfumes I've EVER worn Prada Candy projects the Absolute best ! I can take a shower snd go to bed and still smell it on my wrist. Somehow u got a bad lot or maybe its the oils in your skin. Perhaps u just need to give it one more try maybe in a roller ball cause it is a stunning gorgeous sophisticated fragrance of which I get compliments everytime I wear it. I do agree about the cap tho. Its awkward and yes it doesnt spray all that well but it will never ever keep me from purchasing. It was love at first smell at Neiman Marcus I believe and still is. Thank u for your reviews, very thot provoking in a real good way.
I've heard some people say it projects well and others claim it doesn't. I think alot of factors go into it, but for me I wasn't nuts about it. I love the fragrance itself :)
That's a looot! How do you keep your perfume? Doesn't it go bad?
I've only had most of these perfumes for less than 6 months - I keep them in a box in a cool dark place, and I only keep the ones out on my dresser that I'm currently wearing or enjoying. After that they go back in the dark and cool :)
So have you regretted any of your discards? (I have).
Thanks for your Signorina review, I was tempted to blind buy it but changed my mind. I think I might get DG The One intense instead 😊🌷
Thats a very wise choice!!! D&G performs 100x better than Signorina and it's incredible.
I recently blind bought it because it was super cheap on fragrancenet but now that I know it doesn't perform, ill give it to my mother in law 🤣
flower bomb is so unique. One of my favorite of all times !!!
Prada candy lasts almost 2 days on me
Hi Cody. Love your videos. Would you consider doing a fragrance swap? I have Elie Saab Girl of Now Forever 3 oz. It doesn’t vibe with my skin chemistry. I would love your La Vie Est Belle. Thanks
Hi Sylvia, unfortunately my La Vie Est Belle is gone - but I don't mind considering other swaps. If you want to DM me on instagram that seems to be what works best - or email if you dont have Instagram. codymarieb@gmail.com :)
I just purchased La Vie Est Belle and I love it because of the patchouli, I also love Rouge, it is so so good! I had to return the Goldea and I was sad because it smells amazing but the performance is so terrible on my skin. Like its gone within minutes, I really enjoyed your video. It was calming.
Prada Candy stays forever on the clothes, but not on the skin, but its still one of my holy grail perfume, had 4 or 5 bottles since it came out, dont wear it that often today, just because i have a pretty big fragrance collection. Love your video
Guerlain mon guerlain is my fave i love it more than any other fragrance
oh,yes you love all your perfume
I do!
That marc Jacobs!!!!!! 💕
Is anyone interested in trading/ buying Mon paris by YSL? I have a 3.4 FL oz plus a travel size that are almost new, it’s a good fragrance but I’m getting into more fresh scents. I also don’t like to collect fragrances just have a few that I really love. Please let me know 🥰❤️
For reference if you like Black opium by YSL or Chanel N5 you’ll like this one.
I have Elie Saab Girl of Now Forever 3 oz. I’ve only sprayed it twice.
Your cat’s little disgruntled meow was adorable 😂
I looove Delina! I’m addicted to it.
LaVieEsteBelle . I bought bottles of the fakes sprays because I love sweet perfumes. I didn't know they were LVEB inspired. by the time I bought the real one from watching videos I was upset that I had the fakes all along. I love sweet perfumes so this kinda worked out. Lol I really do love my LVEB. 🤗
What happened to the fluffy thing on your annick goutal?
I got rid of it because everytime I went to smell it it made me sneeze and got in the way of spraying too. lol
The Simple Chic Life Ok that’s fair!
omg did you get rid of Tiffany and Co Intense? 🥺 i discovered that one through your channel
I dropped it and broke the atomizer and it no longer sprays. I sold it to someone who wanted it for decants:( it makes me sad but I took it as a sign for me to actually wear my perfumes instead of just keeping them on a tray lol.
I also decluttered my candy long ago with the same reason. Unfortunately, because it is soooo good. But longevity is an important point of view
Yes not only longevity but projection in general. :/. I'm sad about it too but I have powdery perfumes that just perform much better like Valentina Poudre! :)
I noticed the Givenchy loose face powder in the Sell/Swap Bin. Is that not a good powder?
Your cat is lovely! What is her name? I hope she does more cameos on your Channel 😄🌟
Its good but I just don't use powders really at all - I have only tried it once. :). My kitty's name is Pyongchang - I didn't name her lol. it was sort of an inside joke because when the Olympics were in Peyongchang my daughter at the time could not pronounce it and someone joked maybe we should call the cat that - and it just stuck lol. First because it made us giggle and now it's just her name lol:)
Omg your cat is adorable! I'm a cat mom to two cats myself :)
Thank you!!:) she’s quite lovable these days. I think she was so stressed out from being at the vet she’s just happy to be home.
If you want a better version of prada candy that performes, I can recommend you Kenzo Flower Elixir😘
Great video! Ok, you sold me on the First Kiss Exclusif and the La Petite Robe Noir Intense. I need those in my life! 😊
they are both very very nice! I always suggest trying before you buy just in case but in my opinion theyre both amazing :)
I purchased la petite robe noir & I hate it 🤦🏽♀️ the cherry note is too much for me l. It’s currently on my Mercari. Along with narcisco poudre I just can’t grasp it.
Hi! Kindly try chloe roses de chloe and flower by kenzo. These will be two of my spring perfumes. 😊
I'm curious about the Flower by Kenzo :). I've owned the Roses de Chloe before :):).
Decadence smells like a newly cut lawn to me.
I'm glad that I'm not the only one lol.
As a male, I was never a fan of this scent, im glad my wife got rid of it
💜😹
I got a sample and didn't like it at all! Smells blah!
Omg me too😂😂😂 I use it to spray my underwear drawer until it finishes. I really dislike it.
