  • Hey guys! So today I wanted to challenge myself and see what fragrances would make the cut if I were to actually cut my collection to a "normal umber".

    So as you can tell I’m not ACTUALLY cutting my collection in half; I just wanted to challenge myself to what if I actually did keep only 20 perfumes? 🧐 what if you had to keep less than half your collection; do you know what ones would make the cut? Would they be all of your easy reaches or would they be the most expensive unique ones?

    There is barely any dent in any of these bottles! Life is so so short, USE your favourite perfumes! I have a collection of 15 and my favourites have massive dents in them and I am genuinely so happy when I use my favourites. The store ‘stores’ your perfumes, so there’s no need to worry about running out, and anything out of stock WILL come back in stock.

    • @thesimplechiclife
      @thesimplechiclife  2 роки тому +26

      I do wear them… the issue is every week I get new perfumes in, so I don’t have a chunk of time to just wear what I have instead of trying/testing something new. This is why I’m going to go on a low-buy-no-buy for a while 😊 although I will still have perfumes sent to me from PR; the other issue is because I’m a nurse I’m not allowed to wear perfume to work so they tend to last me a long time:)

This kind of video is so interesting to see what people will choose!! I love your list!!💖 If I could only keep a few, it would be zerjoff italica, delina exclusif, ylang in gold, si fiori vanilla 28, dolce & gabbana the one, lira, cloud 2.0, sunset riot, and the rest I have to really think about. LOL 😂

    Isn’t it funny how scent is subjective? I love wearing scents like PDM safanad, Bvlgari Le GEMME ZAHIRA, Navitus Soir exclusif, Kayali Vanilla 28, Bond no9 New York nights, Frassai Teissendu for every day fall/winter. The ones I reserve for special occasions are Delina Exclusif, Dama Bianca, Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle. Sometimes I might wear some of these every day scents listed, for special occasions too. I’ve always been a no rule person my whole life, I do me and wear what I like.

Right now I’m on a hard no-buy to save up for my wedding this spring! I just snagged the new Guerlain Shalimar Millesime Vanilla Planifolia but after that I’m done. I feel really happy with my collection, although my wish list includes Spiritueuse Double Vanille and Delina Exclusif.

    This is a hard question! I have 16 full size bottles, 12 travel sprays and 9 samples. I count everything because a lot of what I would like to keep are in my travel size or samples (just want to finish before I buy the bottle). But not counting the tiny samples in my total perfume count, I have 28 full size and travel perfumes to pick from.
    I'd keep:
    1. PDM Safanad (have gone through two samples, I just need to buy it!)
    2. Initio Rehab (same as above!)
    3. MFK Oud Satin Mood
    4. MFK Gentle Fluidity Gold
    5. Balenciaga Florabotinica
    6. Lancome Idole Intense
    7. Chloe Nomade
    8. Dior Feve Delicieuse
    9. Le Labo Citron 28
    10. Kilian Moonlight in Heaven
    11. Aerin Hibiscus Palm (I think I first heard of this fragrance from you and I love it)
    12. Angel eau Croisiere 2020
    I have some new samples/travel sprays....so this list can change! I usually go that route and if I finish something and still love then I'll save for a bottle.

    Lol I fantasize about this all the time! I have about 50 perfumes so little fewer than you I think but narrowing it down to 10-15 is my sweet spot too. I guess 10-15 covers different seasons and/or vibes while giving you 1 or 2 choices for each category. Any more than that and you end up with too many options. I imagine this is universal regardless of collection size.

    I own Florabotanica too. It's quite easy to find in Australia too. I've also heard its being discontinued. Balanciaga Paris Perfume I've heard is being discontinued. I never understand why perfume houses discontinue perfumes that everyone loves. It's hard to ever get attached to one scent now.

      Florabotanica is discontinued. I say good riddance!! That scent gave me an instant migraine. Way too green for me. But still easy to find for those of you that love it.
