Oh my gosh - 81 degrees already? That’s robbery of your winter - even us in Texas (Houston = satan’s armpit) isn’t that warm/hot yet… I’d be so sad, I’m trying to cram all my winter ones in as fast as possible.
I need to contain my excitement to reach for my spring fragrances. It's still cold here and I should go with the deeper wintery ones while I still can, it will be warm soon enough and I can enjoy those then. The temptation is really though... I'm over winter. 😂
What a fun video. I really enjoy how you describe fragrance. Informative and entertaining. I ordered Afnan Modest Deux. I really want to try La Capitale. I am a huge Xerjoff fan and own 4 of their fragrances. I am also obsessed with BDK . I literally love everything I have tried.
Hi Jackie! Love the purple! 💜 L'Interdit Rouge definitely screams Valentine's Day. 💖 I agree about the original - gorgeous but I wasn't wanting to wear it. 🤷🏻♀️ It happens.

Yea my bottle of Baklava Royale started out so feminine!!! And it is still is a feminine fragrance but it is was more musky-woody than it was when I first opened it! I thought this was going to be one for the Spring & Summer-times, warmer weather but it's proving to be heavier than I initially thought. Still a LOVE!! It's fantastic ♡
Hey Jackie! I’m so happy to see you have Deliza De Marshmallow. I can’t wait to hear your thoughts. It’s so beautiful. Rouge Smoking and Oriana smell so much better than when I first purchased them and have gotten much stronger.
Ani, Velvet Tonka and Oriana have been some of my faves lately, as well! It’s been back and forth between cold and warm in NY (warm being 45 degrees- that’s warm for NY winter!) and these 3 have worked well.
Bought a sample of Pink Me Up based on your earlier review and love it! I imagine wearing it after a shower or in our Texas heat in a few months. It definitely is fresh and effervescent!!
OMG I wore Happy Dust today and it did get more potent ( I have not worn it since it December) . Also , it seems to blossom in the warmer weather and body heat. Thanks for sharing the update on the performance 🎭
I so understand how you feel. I'm in Charlotte and I also crave my heavier scents in Sept. and into Oct. when it's still too hot and then, by mid-January, I HAVE to start wearing citruses and springtime scents. Makes for a very short cold-weather perfume season. 💜
We had -30 windchills for days. I was swimming in gourmands..lol.. Today it was 35 when I woke up and the sun FINALLY came back. Feels like a Midwest spring day here, which still means gourmands ❤️
It was randomly super warm here in MD recently right after a snowstorm LOL! I’m definitely planning on reaching for Oriana when it’s randomly warm again 🤣🤣
It’s interesting to think of Navitus as having a DNA when it has so many different perfumers. But the gourmands do seem to have an underlying commonality among them. I don’t know what that note smells like specifically but now I’m curious to find out!
Many houses have a common dna. Chanel, Tiziana Terenzi, Montale etc… it’s just kind of a signature if you will. There’s an underlying middle eastern musky woodiness (I think amber wood) that the house uses often. It’s definitely an interesting topic! Thanks for watching. ❤️
I live in Florida so I understand what you mean with craving spring perfumes already. We don’t get cold for long and I just can’t wear gourmands in the Florida heat. And pas ce soir makes a great signature scent here. I wear it often and also have no performance issues.
Hi Jackie! We had an 80 degree day earlier this week. Definitely mid to high 70s the rest of the week. I’m definitely in the ‘no to Amberwood’ camp. Very sad. At least I know now to avoid the note. I wore Modest Deux last night. I tried the Khair Pistachio dupe for Yum Pistachio….excellent! Nice to see you ❤
Hello Jackie … I love velvet tonka .. it’s so yummy .. I layer it with Navitus venom of love .. do you usually wear it alone? I have Oriana … I bet it would layer amazing with deliza marshmallow
I totally get what you're saying about Khaltat Night. Fragrances with cinnamon, I tend to wear from November to early January. I've been eyeing my Flowerbomb Nectar, but it's not quite warm enough yet. I wore Velvet Tonka yesterday and it felt amazing! ❤ I've been loving testing fruity fragrances since Xmas to prepare my Spring and Summer wishlist. 😊
It is Amber wood -and with those high amounts it triggers my anosmia, which is very unfortunate because I can’t use anything from that house. I’ve tried.
I pulled out my flower bomb nectar this month too and really enjoyed it. And yes pas ce soir is lovely and I can wear it all year. That and pink me up are on my 2024 buy list. They are happy fragrances to me. I also enjoy my starlight and la capitale this time of year. And a newer acquisition I’m enjoying is shunkoin.
In CO where I live we are like many places, warm like 60 (which feels warmer here because of elevation) one day then 30 and snowing the next day. Which is literally happening this week outside in tshirts yesterday and expecting several inches of snow starting today. It’s fun though and I get to wear a lot of variety of perfumes.
Hi Jackie!! 😍 Temps in the 70s already?? Wow… I don't blame you for being a little tired of the sweeter gourmands.. tbh I'm not loving my winter tray as much as I did my fall one, and we're still only in the high 30's here. I think I'm just ready for a change 😌🥰
I’m definitely ready for a change. It actually got cold again and is currently in 47 degrees outside but I’m still not wanting gourmands. Over it I guess (for now)
I enjoy BDK fragrances, have quite a few, and pas ce soir is sooo good! I agree the CH very good girl is one of their best flankers. Come Feb I start with my chocolates but I know you don’t love that note. I’ve been layering rouge smoking with lost cherry and it’s heaven! I like baklava royale but it’s changing. I’m putting pink me up on my maybe list, but I have 2 from that house and I don’t love either.
I like chocolate as long as it is mixed with other things. Straight chocolate isn’t always my thing. I do love chocolate greedy by Montale though. There is no method to my madness 😆
Hi Jacky! Love love love those fruity florals and one of my 10 for life is Pas ce soir for shute. I think you might like Moonlight by Pana Dora. Hefty pricetag but so worth it. It’s a sweet fruity floral with a hint of white chocolate. Yummy! Lots of love and good vibes!🌈💐🌺
Jackie I’m with ya on the heavy spicy gourmands! I’m in AZ 🌵and it’s been 80 ☀️ here the last two days. I’m just not in the mood for the heavy stuff anymore. Today I’m testing Floraiku Volcanic Flowers and holy moly it’s gorgeous 🤩 Hard to explain (many notes) and a hint of a gourmand feel, but also fresh? Have you ever smelled it? Yep both L’Interdit Rouge and Pas Ce Soir are beauties and big loves of mine 💞
Ms Jax I listen to u and other fragrance video creators and I see you all are into seasonal fragrances. I really cant say I go by seasons because I just wanna wear what I wanna wear but I am definitely learning from yall. I know I dont like summer fragrances according to you all, cause I just hate bright and vibrant fragrances. In the summer I will spray the fragrance on my clothes instead of my skin to keep it from being to heavy. I would love to see a video where u just wear a fragrance all year long like Ambrosia Imperiale or Velvet Tonka 😂.
Hi Jackie, love watching your monthly trays. I know you love Mon Guerlain Intense. Lately I’ve been annoyed finding Jasmine in what seems like almost every drugstore fragrance - to my nose, sometimes this smells cheap or like a shopping mall toilet. Would you say you can smell Jasmine in this fragrance? Also does this fragrance smell cheap to you and have that typical underlying drugstore DNA? I know I should sample before I buy. There are no testers around where I live so should get a sample online.
Oriana was my first niche blind buy, got the 1 ounce and I thought it was just OK. I thought I preferred love don’t be shy, I had a little tester of that but now Oriana is one of my favorites can’t get enough of it love it I’m also fan of orange blossom and marshmallow. really want to try. La Capitale.
I got a 10ml from the split scent of pink me up. I like it I like the raspberry in it but yeah I didn’t feel it was super special. Of course my Lil 10 ML doesn’t have gold flakes and a pretty pink bottle , that would probably give me different feelings😅
So many fragrances that sometimes some faves get neglected. My Donna BIR is now a bedtime scent. The thing is, I bought it for my mom first and I was smelling it on her for a year. Now that I have it, it no longer has the same appeal to me. The sense of novelty is gone.
I wanted to love La Capitale, but the leather note was a bit much for me. Any recommendations for the same strawberry vibe minus any leather or oud notes?
I too have noticed that perfumes that sit for a few months tend to change a bit, do you know why that is? Also you never speak of jimmi choo or least I havent see it, what do you think of that line?
It’s because some notes age well, like vanilla. It gets darker deeper stronger etc…. I have 1 JC called vanilla love. Haven’t tried much from the house.
Oh my gosh - 81 degrees already? That’s robbery of your winter - even us in Texas (Houston = satan’s armpit) isn’t that warm/hot yet… I’d be so sad, I’m trying to cram all my winter ones in as fast as possible.
I actually spoke too quickly and we’ve had some cold days again since I filmed. The weather in here is bipolar I guess. 😆
Velvet Tonka & Pas Ce Soir are some of my favourite fragrances 😍😍😍
I get so affected by the weather too 😂 I always feel out of sync from where I am supposed to be.
I need to contain my excitement to reach for my spring fragrances. It's still cold here and I should go with the deeper wintery ones while I still can, it will be warm soon enough and I can enjoy those then. The temptation is really though... I'm over winter. 😂
I’m soooo over winter. I need my beach time.
Now i am craving for mashmallowy orange blossom scents ❤
Yes! I’m so here for it.
What a fun video. I really enjoy how you describe fragrance. Informative and entertaining. I ordered Afnan Modest Deux. I really want to try La Capitale. I am a huge Xerjoff fan and own 4 of their fragrances. I am also obsessed with BDK . I literally love everything I have tried.
Thank you! Enjoy modest deux! 💕
Hey gorgeous! Panettone is incredible. It’s so very cold here in NJ so I’m sticking with my sweet gourmands ❤❤
We have a couple of cold days sprinkled in. I think the weather here is bipolar 😆
Hi Jackie! Love the purple! 💜 L'Interdit Rouge definitely screams Valentine's Day. 💖 I agree about the original - gorgeous but I wasn't wanting to wear it. 🤷🏻♀️ It happens.
Thank you 😊. Yes L’Interdit rouge is a contender for date night ❤️
I am the opposite I rediscovered l'interdit, I only got a small bottle a few years ago but as the perfume ages it's getting more addictif I found
I adore pas ce soir. I've been layering it with golden berry from bath and bodyworks. Sometimes I layer it with Angel Muse
I'll have to try that!..thanks
Nice!
Oh, I should try that... 😍

It's so good!

Yes! Rouge smoking is one of my favorites and it definitely is getting stronger with time.
I’d like to get Pink Me Up for spring 😉 nice tray this month 👍🏼
I’ve really been enjoying her. So fun and lighthearted ❤️
Beautiful look!!! Loving the purple!!!💜

I’ve found from Jan/Feb til April, layering my super gourmands with my florals helps get over the boredom/itch to switch to Spring
I love Oriana!❤
Great video! Thank you!😊❤
Thank you too!

Exactly!!
Hey Jackie! ❤❤Great tray! Loving so many.. Def gonna pull out my pas ce soir too!😊
I’ve missed my pad ce soir. She’s such a beauty.
We had -30 windchills for days. I was swimming in gourmands..lol..

@@jaxbeautifulyouI forgot to mention that it’s from Paris Corner 😊
Yup it reminds me of Goldschladger also 😂. Great choices Jackie! Going to take some of my same fragrances out also!
😆
Hello Jackie … I love velvet tonka .. it’s so yummy .. I layer it with Navitus venom of love .. do you usually wear it alone? I have Oriana … I bet it would layer amazing with deliza marshmallow
I do wear it alone. I just love how it is, but those combos sound 🔥
You are very beautiful and love your channel ❤
Thank you so much!!

Yes the amber wood is strong with them. I adore amber wood so it works for me, but definitely not for everyone.

@@jaxbeautifulyou it’s soooo good. I’m so happy I have it.
I live in the uk and its been cold/mild i do a weekly tray of perfumes that way i get to use all my perfumes 10 a month for me would bore me x

I know Pas Ce Soir by BDK, but what company is "shute"?
Thanks for the recommendation!
It's still cold and windy here.
It actually got cold again here too. It keeps playing with me. lol

I have not tried it but thanks for the recommendation!
😂😂. Before you said it, I was saying “Goldschlager!” I’m glad it’s not just me that thinks this! Great video! 😊
😂
Is Modest Deux similar to La Nuit Tresor? I've been hearing people say that.. oooh La Capitale I have a dabber sample and I lovvve it!! ❤😍
OMG Pas Ce Soir seems like it would be a total crowd pleaser!! I'm surprised so many people don't seem to like it but perfume is so polarizing 😅
Yes I think they are similar. Not 1:1 definitely differences but if you love one there’s a good chance you’ll love the other.
I may or may not have gave in and bought La Capitale 😭😭😭 How is it so good?!?!
Right?! It is addictive imo
Are you going to review the new Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Tigerlily? I'm curious about the mango!!🥭
Yes I am!
@@jaxbeautifulyou ...Ya!! I noticed it was available today on their website so I was hoping!! I can't wait to see what you think!!

Another great video! Crazy jealous of your weather though, it’s in the 30-40’s here in D.C. 😢
😢 it’s only 58 today… the weather here keeps going back and forth. But I hate the cold. I’m so looking forward to my summer days. 🌞
I have heard pink me up has similar vibes to the new Nest perfume - thoughts?
Idk I haven’t tried it yet. I don’t have a lot of luck with nest perfumes. They never seem to last on me. I definitely need to give it a sniff though.
💝❤️💜

SHL venom Incarnat doesn’t have oud but does have leather. However it’s less to my nose than la capitale. Get a sample and see what you think 💕
Oh nice, I'll have to try that one, thanks!

La capitale is on my list to purchase! It never ends😂😊
lol my wishlist is eternal 😆

I tested velvet tonka and I love it, it is on my wish list but I tried pas soire and it is a no go for me the quince is too sharp and cloying
