I love when you two get together!! DUA has my heart. I just sold 100 DUA's but I still own about 100. I'm trying to be more selective moving forward. It's hard!! I just bought eight this last weekend LOL.
You sound just like me. I sold a lot of my collection this summer and I’m happier having mostly favourites now, but I still get badly tempted to keep collecting. Although it’s frustrating, the endless sold out fragrances save me from making impulsive choices 😂
Y’all are friggin hilarious! I hated Guidance at first and it definitely gave “Lady Nuts Hazelnuts” vibes. I held on to a decant and revisited it after a year and I love her. I’m definitely getting the “sweet and creeeeeeammy jasmine” I needed this today. Love you ladies 😂
I got French macaroons and I’m still waiting for it to come. I’m in WA and it’s coming from CA should’ve been here by now but my tracking still says shipment waiting to be accepted for days now. I’m so excited to smell it!
Hug of Flowers still remains my top Dua of all time! I also bought BoraBora when HoF was out of stock over the summer. Rise of Pina Colada- I get so many compliments!! My other Ride or Dies- She Wears Red, Intimate with Vanilla, Angelic Elixir, Happiness of Soft Cloud, Caramel Delight. My next purchase is going to be French Macaroons!
I love it when Val comes to play😊 I'm obsessed with dua , the dua rabbit hole is real... My current favourites include Goddess within Glorified moon Exceptional dance of the dragonflies Love coffee Aoud intense orange
Yay 🎉 Val and Dua! Dua has become my favourite fragrance house, my favourites are Vaniglia Dreams, Faraway Iris Fields, and White chocolate macadamia nuts. So addictive and sweet 🩷
Val here - girl, I have been dying to get my nose on Faraway Iris Fields but it’s always sold out! Do you find it smells like cotton candy? I need to know!!
@@lunablue1002it smells so much like cotton candy, but fresh and juicy, it’s so interesting. I don’t find the notes match up, but it is one of the most beautiful fragrances. It smells like it has a hint of soft flowers and soft citrus’s to balance out the sweet cotton candy. I hope it comes back in stock soon.
I purchased a group of Dua frags that sounded so good but when I got them , they all ended up smelling like they were so similar and for MEN instead . I gave them to my male friends and am afraid to order anything I do not appreciate any frag that even hints at being for men … any comments / suggestions ? Thanks ladies .
@ sorry you had that disappointing experience. Most of the ones listed here are very sweet and girly unless otherwise specified (i.e. Hidden Floor leans unisex). Hope that helps
Yes! Val is here! I'm not even halfway through the video and I am enjoying you guys's conversation about fragrance and the experience of it versus fragrances that don't take you anywhere. They're just from point A to point B versus the scents that take you from A to B to C and all the way to Z
My way isn’t my jam. Glad you guys like it. 🥰 I have holidays by mancera coming in. Excited. I did get velvet vanilla and I’m not a huge fan of it. I can say, tuberose i’m not a fan of I’m discovering.
Val here! I agree, Tuberose can be very hit or miss. I love My Way but Maria isn’t a big fan. Conversely, she loves Velvet Vanilla and it was a fail for me 🤷🏼♀️ Fragrance is so uniquely personal and I just love that about it!
Ok I’m dying!!😂😂 I’ve never seen Marie get so red!! 🤭 And Val you give the best DUA recommendations and I TRUST You! I have yet to get any (everytime I tried the ones I wanted were sold out) but I’ve got a great list thx to you!! 💕 💕 you two make me smile!!
I love you two together ! The laughter and vibe are just so contagious 😂 I have so many fragrances you both have recommended. All of them blind buys and most I'm totally in love with. My fav so far is Sacrifice for Her (purple rectangle bottle). Now all this said, I came on here mainly to say I LOVE YOUR TOP, VAL !!! ❤❤❤
You all are a hoot and have brightened my day. I laughed out loud with you! 😂 The problem I have with Dua is that every fragrance that I want to get is always sold out - every . single . time. So I've kind of given up on them??? But I really want to get the French Macaroon + White Milk - will they restock or is it gone forever and how long will I have to stalk the company to see if it's back because they don't have a call list? erg....... I would love to sample all of your collection Val - how much fun would that be :) I love you two, keep doing more collabs 🥰
Val here - I understand how frustrating it can be, believe me. If you sign up for an account on their site, you can curate a wishlist and will be automatically notified via email when your favourites restock! Saves a little sanity 😂
French macaroons and white milk is AMAZING! I got 4 compliments in one day at a work training. It’s one of my favorites I finished my first bottle in a month and a 1/2 and ordered a second bottle. 😊❤
French macaroons and white milk is an absolute love and beast same with sour peach a spot on dupe for bitter peach in my opinion my guys really like it❤❤
You did it, made me purchase clean laundry, and while I was on the dua site I got a 10 ml of cotton candy and french macarons ! Thanks enjoyed the video guys.
Our favorite friend duo returns❣️You lovely ladies put me on to Dua in March & since then I’ve joined groups on facebook, have over 75, even swap online now!😅😂My favs are: Vanilla Brandy, Whipped Lemonade, Angelic Elixir On The Rocks, Paradise Leisure, Marshmallow Dream, Explosive Sun, Accidental Vanille of CR & Romantic For Her.👌🏽
@@hannahm.9881They are extrait de parfum, so they are actually stronger, longer lasting, and better projecting than the fragrances they are duping - if that makes any difference to you in consideration of price
i am new to dua but so far I love 1) French macarons in white milk (mistakenly only bought a solo!), 2) Accidental Vanillic Elixir (I have angels share and this one blew me away, it’s so similar but with amped up sweetness and apple pie, to my nose) and 3) Sweet Lemon Pastry…I get complimented on this more than a lot of my $$$$ perfumes. I’m not usually a back up bottle person, but I’m thinking about getting a back up of this one.
The two of you together made this day soo much more enjoyable! Thank you! I have only four Dua’s; but I loved them soo much I bought backups of each. Holy Grail- inspired by Jacque Fath’s “L’iris de Fath” 36:09 . Distance- inspired by Pure Distance’s “M”. Britian- inspired by Rojas “Great Britain”. I own Cuir de Russie by Chanel and put the Britian on skin and spray the Cuir de Russie on cloths. The perfume concentration I find is better as a base for the body and the EDP to sit and project off clothing.
Val!! You're the reason Hug of Flowers went viral for a few months and was soooo hard to get!! LOL!! And then I finally got my hands (and nose) on it and was like...oh. this isn't for me LOL!! So much hype but not a safe blind buy. You have to be into Tiare flower to enjoy it. Same with Aoud Intense Sunlight. That was another fail for me. I guess I don't like Tiare flower!! 😂😂
My absolute favorite is the Mula Mula inspired Berry Delight, the Spirituese Double Vanille inspired Vanille Overload and probably and tie between Alienated Essence and Manifesto inspired Manifest for her.
Cherry hookah is something special. I wouldn’t consider myself a cherry mega-fan but that one is sexy AF. Also Puffletuft is a fantastic sweet gourmand. My partner wears honey Cuba tobac and he smells DELICIOUS. Just too many great ones to list!
Maria! The hairy chest-girl I can SO relate. By the end of a video I feel like my hair has gone wild and wonder why I even bothered wearing a shirt because my hair did the job! 😂
What a Sunday afternoon delight … you guys crack me up❣️❤️🔥❤️🔥 I’m a musk lover and unisex lover my first purchase from DUA -Elixir of Isfarkand / a true love. Last week I received-milkylicious and I’m liking this one! Thanks so much for the Guide laugh …… I have that one too. I left a DUA review but they take my opinion seriously 🤣
You guys are so funny. Love it. I’ve been looking for a good spin of Bianco Latte and this combo seems to be something I’m really going to love. But 💔 it’s sold out☹️. I’ll keep trying
So happy to know about this Desired Yacht!! I have the travel size of One Umbrella and a sample of the EBK. I am curious if either of you know if the Forest Mystery smells like Serge Luten's Fille en Aiguilles? That was the perfume I always regretted not buying long ago. Thanks.
Hey girls!!!! Val OMG you are an expert on DUA fragrances thank you!! I love how strong they are, a good bang for your buck. Lady parts??😂 I can’t unhear that, so……
Current top 3 Dua: One and two are Amberlicious (Ambre Narguiles by Hermès) and Hypnotic Santalum (Santal Royal by Guerlain) I have not smelled the originals, nor do I intend to, as they are beyond the reach of my budget. These 2 are exceptional and make me happy when I spray them. The third is Carnal Gray (Gris Charnel by BDK). I didnt want to invest in a bottle of BDK until I was sure I'd use it. I get compliments EVERY time I wear it. I look forward to purchasing the OG when my Dua gets low.
I bought Hug of Flowers after your previous video and loved it so much I got a sample of Bora Bora thinking it would be even better. I felt it was exactly as you say, the same scent, yet not as lasting so I am sticking with the DUA. I had the Sora Dora dupe, Candied Raspberry and Violets or something, and it never smelled like perfume to me so gave it too my daughter who loves it. Now, The Guide, ugh. I had a sample of Guidance, liked it a lot but no way would I buy at that price so got the DUA. Well that one was so strong it made me sick and now I can't wear either that one or the original Guidance. This also happened with DUAs Hermes Ambre Narguile dupe and I think it's a chemical they use in some of the perfumes that end up ruining the perfume for me. oxJulia
Absolutely love love lovedddd thisssss My favourite DUA is Late night venom which their inspiration of Midnight Poison By Dior it was kindly gifted to me by Gabi aka The Fragrantician. It’s so so so bloody strong 🤣🤣🤣
@lunablue1002 this is a rare case where I happen to own the fragrance (yes it's my most expensive one) and it's definitely polarising. I've gotten LOOKS for this one so maybe to some..... 🤣😹
American here...I wonder if sixlets are similar to Canadian Smarties. For Dua my favs right now are Circus of the Sun (dupe for Cirque de soleil Le parfum), Casino nightr royal white milk, and Puffletuft
"When you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last? Do you suck them very slowly or crunch them very fast....?"😊 I've always wanted to try Smarties but only knew the commercials.
Bubble gum?? Lattafa Fakhar Rose Gold smells exactly like Bazooka Bubble Gum. I know that scent, anywhere!! My friend used to collect the little Bazooka Joe comics for some reason.
Genuinely curious, and no disrespect intended at all for those who have more experience - is a Dua blend worth it? If I have the individual perfumes and layer, would I not get the same experience? I can get that a blend is more convenient, but I'm just wondering if a blend is truly worth it ❤
I think that if I had the individual perfumes I would just layer them myself. You wouldn’t get the exact blend as the perfume but to me it would be close enough. Also, that isn’t disrespectful at all!! It’s a legitimate question!! Some may say it’s worth it but personally I wouldn’t if I had the individual perfumes. 😀💕
@mariacollettlife omg!! I didn't know if you would personally see this, tysm for your thoughtful reply! Okay, that's good to know about the blends! I guess if I find myself layering specific DUAs a lot, then I'll eventually see if they have a blend 🤗
I love when the two of you ladies team up! You and Val should have a podcast.❤
Agree
We’ve thought about it!
Yesssss so do I!!! Been waiting for this one haha 🥰🥰
Omg yes!!
I really appreciate these Dua videos. It's so easy to get overwhelmed in the face of all their options!
I agree!
I love when you two get together!! DUA has my heart. I just sold 100 DUA's but I still own about 100. I'm trying to be more selective moving forward. It's hard!! I just bought eight this last weekend LOL.

My top 3 DUA's would be Cherry Hookah, Alienated essence, Creamy Blend of Walnuts. Always love hearing your recommendations ❤
I just got out of the shower & Pink Cotton is my scent of the night. I used the body oil in the shower & the fragrance on my pjs.❤
Y’all are friggin hilarious! I hated Guidance at first and it definitely gave “Lady Nuts Hazelnuts” vibes. I held on to a decant and revisited it after a year and I love her. I’m definitely getting the “sweet and creeeeeeammy jasmine” I needed this today. Love you ladies 😂
I got French macaroons and I’m still waiting for it to come. I’m in WA and it’s coming from CA should’ve been here by now but my tracking still says shipment waiting to be accepted for days now. I’m so excited to smell it!
Hug of Flowers still remains my top Dua of all time! I also bought BoraBora when HoF was out of stock over the summer.
Rise of Pina Colada- I get so many compliments!!
My other Ride or Dies- She Wears Red, Intimate with Vanilla, Angelic Elixir, Happiness of Soft Cloud, Caramel Delight.
My next purchase is going to be French Macaroons!
I love it when Val comes to play😊 I'm obsessed with dua , the dua rabbit hole is real...
My current favourites include
Goddess within
Glorified moon
Exceptional dance of the dragonflies
Love coffee
Aoud intense orange
I haven't ordered anything yet from them but they are on my wish list ! I really want to try that Desired Yacht. It sounds soooo interesting.
You two are the best Duo! (Dua)😊
🤣💕
I'm soooo happy to see Neon Walkway on this list!! Getting the love it deserves!!
It’s such a special fragrance!! I thought I was the only one 😂
Your laughter together cracks me up! I love it!!

Glad you enjoyed!

I agree. I enjoy a few other fragrance Y-Tubers but watching these two and the vibes just feel very comforting and lighthearted.
Val just quoted The Smiths!! Love her even more!!
Awww so glad you got the reference! I’m a total music nerd 😂❤
Right now Dua have a huge sale.
Love the bond of you two ladies. Much love ❤
Love love love when you both team up!!🥰
My top Duas are cherry hookah, roses in the mist, floral angel and desired yacht

You guys are great together! I love DUA also!
fun fact: "dua" means prayer in Arabic
Ahhh! I was wondering!!
Alienated Essence is one of my all time faves! Sometimes I smell the bottle just to lighten my mood. So yummy!
So gorgeous!
Yes, and it last all day ❤😊
THATS IT!! I've GOT to check out THE GUIDE!🤣🤣🤣

Great to see you two together. The problem for me with DUA is I hate, hate their bottles. If they had a bottle I liked, I'd have tons of them.

Thanks for weighing in!
The dupe for Wave Child is also very good.
I just discovered Dua! I got Dreamy and Therapy and I love them. My husband really likes Savage elixir. I have a very long wish list.
They have so many excellent options!
Val!! You're the reason Hug of Flowers went viral for a few months and was soooo hard to get!! LOL!! And then I finally got my hands (and nose) on it and was like...oh. this isn't for me LOL!! So much hype but not a safe blind buy. You have to be into Tiare flower to enjoy it. Same with Aoud Intense Sunlight. That was another fail for me. I guess I don't like Tiare flower!! 😂😂
Welcome back. Thanks for sharing these perfumes 😁🙌🏽🤩
Thanks Pamela!
I love the Smiths! Maria that lip color is YOUR color!
Another Smiths fan! So cool 🥰❤️ And I agree! Her makeup looked amazing that day!
My absolute favorite is the Mula Mula inspired Berry Delight, the Spirituese Double Vanille inspired Vanille Overload and probably and tie between Alienated Essence and Manifesto inspired Manifest for her.
Thanks for sharing your faves!
Cherry hookah is something special. I wouldn’t consider myself a cherry mega-fan but that one is sexy AF. Also Puffletuft is a fantastic sweet gourmand. My partner wears honey Cuba tobac and he smells DELICIOUS. Just too many great ones to list!
Great picks 💖
Yay. So happy to see you two together❤

Do either of you have suggestions for passionfruit forward fragrances?
Preferably Middle Eastern/affordable. ❤
You guys are so funny. Love it. I’ve been looking for a good spin of Bianco Latte and this combo seems to be something I’m really going to love. But 💔 it’s sold out☹️. I’ll keep trying
So happy to know about this Desired Yacht!! I have the travel size of One Umbrella and a sample of the EBK. I am curious if either of you know if the Forest Mystery smells like Serge Luten's Fille en Aiguilles? That was the perfume I always regretted not buying long ago. Thanks.
I am not familiar with forest mystery. 💕
Hey girls!!!! Val OMG you are an expert on DUA fragrances thank you!! I love how strong they are, a good bang for your buck. Lady parts??😂 I can’t unhear that, so……
American here but born in Canada, I agree smarties are better than M&Ms for sure . I wish we had them here
In Australia we have a m and m style chocolate called smarties too exactly the same as youse do❤❤❤
They are so tasty- glad you have them too!

Yes- I find some of their fragrances just way too strong!!
Absolutely love love lovedddd thisssss
My favourite DUA is Late night venom which their inspiration of Midnight Poison By Dior it was kindly gifted to me by Gabi aka The Fragrantician.
It’s so so so bloody strong 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for sharing your faves!
I do believe amouage said they attempted to capture feminity in a "carnal and intimate way" so close enough 😂
Val here - thank you for this! Glad to know I didn’t make it up 😂
🤣🤣🤣love it!

I need Circus of the sun- I love the original but it’s not very strong and so expensive!!
Sixlets!! I was thinking of them too but couldn't remember the name😅
I got a great laugh at the lady parts bit!
My favorites are:
Her Addiction
Vanilla Baby
White Milk
Delightful Halwa!!!! Sounds perfect for me, as I love dates and saffron and classic florals.
Thanks so much!!
Get a sample of Delightful Halwa! It's not an edible gourmand, thankfully in my opinion. It's beautiful.
@@HeatherGoldberg-e6n Thank you!
You two are the best!! Now my wallet is crying 😂
🤣🤣💕
Maria-what was the final verdict on neon walkway?
Hi ladies I love watching you two. This is the first time hearing of Dua. I’ve been searching for scent close to New West by Aramis. Any suggestions?
Sorry, I haven’t smelled that one 😀
@ it was my favorite from the 90s I was so sad when they discontinued it and haven’t been able to find anything close to it
" ... I'd smell them all the time"
I heard you clearly Maria 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣IF!!! Don’t forget the “IF” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you. I needed a good laugh today, but sadly I was drinking and then spewing my peach tea..lolol
Bahahahaaaaaa!!! I totally understand- has happened to me more than I would like to admit!
@ I fell down the DUA rabbit hole!!! Love your videos!!
They had a sniff dupe for crumb couture but I cannot find it on the site.
I tried crumb couture and love it!!
Hazelnuts, lady nuts. I'm dying!😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣💖
The OG guidance smells just like PBO 😂
We have smarties in the UK 😀😀
"Hazel nuts, Lady nuts" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I was surprised to hear about you not liking Celeste because it reminds me a lot of Mallow 😅
It is similar. Maybe I misspoke as I enjoy the profile but I smelled it and thought- “it’s a mallow wannabe” so o didn’t pursue it 😀
Omg I love when you 2 get together!!! Lady nuts 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"When you eat your Smarties, do you eat the red ones last? Do you suck them very slowly or crunch them very fast....?"😊 I've always wanted to try Smarties but only knew the commercials.
Thanks for actually writing that I’d forgotten about that, but I totally know the whole entire song! 🤣💖💖💖💖💖
Val have you tried DELECTABLE TEMPTATION???
One umbrella for two smells nuttier to me that's why I prefer deep n desire. But very similar. Also per ounce deep n desire is a better price.
Thanks for weighing in!!
@mariacollettlife I really need to try the Dua.
I'm going to get
desired yacht... caramel affair ... lemon pastry.. hug of flowers .. all the macaroon ones...😂
Bubble gum?? Lattafa Fakhar Rose Gold smells exactly like Bazooka Bubble Gum. I know that scent, anywhere!! My friend used to collect the little Bazooka Joe comics for some reason.
Would like to see Val's worst/least favorite DUA's next! I know out of 160 bottles there has to be some duds
That’s a great idea!
Blueberry Dreams ...ugh
Genuinely curious, and no disrespect intended at all for those who have more experience - is a Dua blend worth it? If I have the individual perfumes and layer, would I not get the same experience? I can get that a blend is more convenient, but I'm just wondering if a blend is truly worth it ❤
I think that if I had the individual perfumes I would just layer them myself. You wouldn’t get the exact blend as the perfume but to me it would be close enough. Also, that isn’t disrespectful at all!! It’s a legitimate question!! Some may say it’s worth it but personally I wouldn’t if I had the individual perfumes. 😀💕
@mariacollettlife omg!! I didn't know if you would personally see this, tysm for your thoughtful reply! Okay, that's good to know about the blends! I guess if I find myself layering specific DUAs a lot, then I'll eventually see if they have a blend 🤗
I'll never look at Hazel's nuts the same way again!
🤣🤣🤣🤣💖
Please keep Alienated Essence off the radar.😂😂😂😂😂I need another bottle
It’s so tempting to gate keep!! 😂
