    I am 44 and in my early 20s I worked at Dillards. Every morning before the store opened (I worked in the back, cleaning/stocking) I would run to the counter to douse myself in Amarige. I was surrounded by fragrances but she was "the one"!
    I am 100% with you... Scent for me is memory. And I am a nostalgic nut.

    You're absolutely right, most people seem to like a simple, generic, pleasant fragrance with not too much complexity to it. I own quite a few niche or at least unusual fragrances, but I get compliments when I wear Fantasy by Britney Spears, or Red Temptation by Zara, or Cloud by Ariana Grande.
    My niches are for me, not to please the crowd, because the crowd could not care less.

    • @VeronicaSays
      @VeronicaSays  Рік тому +3

      Hi Marielle! Absolutely. I wear the weird ones for my own enjoyment, and the mass appealing ones during social affairs. Cloud garners me many compliments also.

    I blind bought Terracotta after hearing you speak about it and I absolutely love it! I've been wearing Still since it was released. Not my every day but it reminds me of an amazing time of my life and I'll always have it in my collection. I was 18 and had just spent a year working hard to save up for a 3 month trip to Brazil. I bought Still at the airport and then to my sheer delight I was bumped up to first class for the Auckland to Buenos Aires flight. I remember being doused in Still, drinking champagne, luxuriating in first class and feeling so grown up, so elegant and so excited for adult life to begin.

    I just love the perfume bottle that you decanted JLo's Still into - so pretty! I read that decanting wasn't easy, and you could break the bottle while doing it. I would enjoy seeing a decant happen from start to finish. Thanks for your Fave list.

    Such a great top ten and description/breakdown of why each made the cut! I was excited to watch this because you have such eclectic taste and are so open-minded when it comes to perfume (which I love) so I was curious to know what you would pick. Thé only fragrance i was sure would be in there was Still. 🙃
    Really enjoyed your scent memory descriptions too like your mom and her leather coat, with the gum and 80’s fragrances. 👌🏼

If you're into Still, EA My 5th Ave, Kensie Buttercup Babe, Nanette Leopore Enchanted Flora would be up your alley, and they are all super super affordable. Anyways, I always love watching and hearing your opinions, and look forward to your favourites lists. Happy holidays!

    I have hundreds of fragrances so it would be tough to choose just 10... but if there were a fire I would scoop up all my variations of Panthere de Cartier from 1986 (not to be confused with the current Cartier Panthere, which is nice enough, but a kitten by comparison). It's vintage (most of my collection is) and my very favorite of them all. BIG, of course, but smooth. Not sharp, doesn't singe the nose hairs off. It's an Amber Floral that I sometimes wear to bed when I really need a hug. Plus, the bottles are stupendous.

    • @VeronicaSays
      @VeronicaSays  Рік тому +1

    A few months ago, I was looking to try an oud fragrance, and none of the stores near me have it in store. Not wanting to spend hundreds of dollars on a blind buy, I ended up ordering Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud. It has become my favorite cold weather scent and I wear it on the daily. It is my most complimented fragrance, and I am madly in love with the caramel that it dries down to the next day as well. For Summer, I love Ellis Brooklyn Salt. I love that tang it has. I love to layer it with Maison Margiela Beach Walk

    We have very similar taste: I also love Black Orchid, Still, Alien, hoping to get Amarige.
    You’ve inspired me to do my own top 10 for life just for myself. I don’t have a HUGE collection (40 full size bottles and around 20 travel size) but I’m sure I’ll still find it hard to choose just 10.

    Soleil Blanc is absolutely in my top ten for life. It is a masterpiece in my opinion. I couldn't live without it. Angels Share also makes my list. One of the most intoxicating fragrances I have ever stumbled on. 🥰 If it wasn't for YT, I would have never known about it. Others that make my list... Amarige. Chanel Chance. Aqua Allegoria Teazzurra. Profumi del Forte Roma Imperiale. Gucci Accenti, probably my favorite fragrance of life. Hard to come by anymore but if you can find it I recommend snatching a bottle for a reasonable price! It's the greatest Peach-forward perfume I've ever smelled. I've owned bottles since the mid-90's and I can't live without it.

    Your description of your mum really hit home. Mine passed when I was 23, but I always recall her Nivea cream, certain elegant French perfumes that she had as miniatures ,yet I do not know what they were but gosh; they were beautiful. Certain earlier Dior and Chanel scents were similar but not quite them. I’m 60 now and am on this scent hunt to get that, olfactory memory in a bottle. I smelled Cartier Carat and that would have been something she would have loved, so I purchased it and mix it with Coco Noir. It’s a mix of the two of us ❤️❤ Juicy fruit, Shalimar mix is reminiscent as well and my heart for your memory ❤️. Stani xx

Looking forward to checking out Bare by Victoria's Secret in case it smells like their fragrance Breathless from years ago - I still have a bit of Breathless perfume and lotion left in my small collection! But even if it's just a nice everyday fragrance, that'll be good, too. My next purchase I hope will be the berry fragrance by Burberry which comes in a pink bottle (I can't recall the fragrance name at the moment) - it seems perfect for winter.
