Thanks for stopping by Royals ❤ Kindly note that this review is simply my subjective opinion just like any other review I do. However, sampling will be the better alternative to form one’s own personal opinion. These fragrances may well be perfect but at its current state I am personally not enjoying. This can also change with time as most Middle Eastern fragrances tend to change over time. Thanks for watching and all opinions are welcomed ❤
For a man, there is no stronger affirmation of the attractiveness/desirability of something than for a lovely woman to give it her kiss of approval. Therefore, yes, it IS "simply" your subjective opinion, but, if your opinion didn't hold value to, apparently, quite a few people, they'd be selecting one of the MANY other less visually-appealing options that UA-cam has available to them.
Happy Tuesday Beautiful Adwoa ❤❤❤ Well, it's official! These scents are not going to be purchased by me. You are definitely not the first person who had mentioned how synthetic and sharp these are, how disappointing! I agree with you, these were rushed fragrances and that equates to a waste of money. As much money as they make, they really need to reformulate these! Happy New Year to you Sis!❤❤❤
Good morning gorgeous 🌸 I am testing cake temptation out this morning on hand and literally want to wash it off 😌 You don’t need these. Wishing you the best for 2025 🙏🏾🫶🏾
Great review. Creamy biscuit looks interesting because I don’t like the cinnamon spicy notes in T Speculoos especially in the opening. You are trusted because you are honest. Never change that 💓
Think of biting into the juiciest, ripe mango you've ever had and having it smelling all around you. It is magic! No other mango fragrance comes close or gives me that feeling, and I have all the mango fragrances. Love, love, love 😍
Hi Adwoa....yes, I have heard very mixed reviews on these two and, to be honest, I think I am a bit burned out on Vanilla gourmands. Thank you for your honest, authentic review. 😊
You are not the first person saying this is bad. It is disappointing because I liked the package, but at the same time a relief lol because I have other perfumes in my list to buy. Let’s wait for the aging process to see if gets better, but like you said, normally we understand the vibe of the perfume in the first sniff.
Oh really! I have not seen any review sharing a similar view as mine so am a bit relieved knowing am not the only one. However, I think they should be sampled first. I think they are good but not great. Am not really impressed or maybe am just getting tired of these edible literal gourmands 😒
@ I saw on tiktok, the “no paid comission” reviews are negative also. For sure, when it is possible I will sample it, because I am a very curious person lol. I understand how difficult can be to say our honest opinion in public, thanks for doing so. That’s why I love to see your perfume reviews. And I don’t think gourmand perfumes are the problem per se, but for sure the saturation of the market is a problem. It overwhelms us and drowns the market with things that are all the same and without quality or creativity.
I like your outfit!,you are looking cute!i bought spanish vainilla because of you,and love it!i have speculoos and love it too.I was waiting for these two,love the package,but the scent its suspicious.I already have similar to those one and even better as you have said,so i am saving coins thanks to you❤
Hello! I only have cake temptation. To me it smells like strawberry pie filling. We also have a candy here that it reminds me of, strawberry now & laters. I layer it with voux patisserie to tone it down some. -Ronnie
2025 I decided to slow down on viral fragrances and buy older fragrances and less known Arabian fragrances. Most viral ones are to basic or smell the same these days.
I placed an order this morning for Ginger babe, Jawhari, Mango Jugoso and Creamy Biscuit. I skipped Cake temptation I don’t do good with some of those fruity notes, but I’m so looking forward to trying these. Thanks for sharing your experience.❤❤❤❤
Good point Adwoa 🎉. Synthetic smells are just not made for our organic systems. Only two I would allow. Iso E, and Metalic Aceton ingredients as an catalyst chemistry to provoke nuances to smell stronger.
I received cake temptation over the weekend. It's supposed to be a strawberry cheesecake fragrance. I really enjoyed Tiramisu Speculoos so my expectations were high. The opening smells like sour strawberry milk or yoghurt, and is slightly nauseating. And yes I agree, the strawberry is quite strong and synthetic. I'm going to let it macerate. Hopefully it improves with time.
Same here 😢 With the release of Jugoso and coconut lagoon i was very hopeful for these. Might just have to count our losses this time or hope for a better outcome after aging 🤞❤️
Greetings Obaapa love the 💜💜💜.. lately the prices on Paris corner haven’t been justifying takes forever to macerate and they don’t stop dropping them for the $40-45 doesn’t make sense they hardly do sales here anyway but drive prices up they accidentally dropped a video on their page of their warehouse makes sense.. USA tiktok is where the hype is on the live and the ambassadors
Afehyiapa sis 🎊 Thank you! Yes the TikTok lives & hype!!!! Hmmmm I feel the end is sort of near for the Arabian Perfumes craze and the craze of driving the prices. Most are redundant and the rest half baked. The gems are getting fewer 😌
I totally agree w you. In Europe, the price is outrageous if it’s available which is almost a marketing technique. I enjoy the time for a good scent I have received. There’s no point for me to chase their launches in this economy. I would lobe to smell the coconut lagoon though. I heard it’s sweet coconut which is my thing. I reckon yoy only got mango juguso?
uh oh my bundle is already on the way, i'll find out if i like them later this week! i loved coconut lagoon (but it was for my mom, had to buy myself one too lol) and decided i'll give mango jugoso a try as well. hopefully your bottles improve with time, maybe they just really rushed these out in time for the sales?
Well that's disappointing, I think Cee from Cee Chronicles is the only other person who's reviewed these new Paris Corner fragrances, and she was speaking so highly of cake temptations that I just order two bottles of cake temptation off aroma concepts. I agree with you about Mango Jugoso which is such a lovely fragrance. Definitely back up bottle worthy. Coconut Lagoon is really good too.
I understand we all view things differently perceive smells differently too. I am not feeling this one but it is all subjective. I might actually work perfectly for you and a lot more people but currently, am not really a huge fan. It’s improved even within a few days but it’s a maybe currently. I hope you enjoy it much better Robyn🤞❤️
I bought cake temptation based on Cee's review as well, and was a bit disappointed. Let's hope it gets better after maceration. Would it be redundant to own Ajayeb Dubai and mango jugoso?
exactly I did the same @robynrobison4050, she lied and said it smelled like ice cream. She just says whatever because she gets free stuff, my sister and I unsubscribed from her. So disappointing
You are absolutely right in your description. I have cake temptation, and I felt as you did . But your honest review made me trust your nose even more than before😊 and that is good because you will save me the disappointment and money and its bad because I have to buy Mango jugoso now😂. Thank you
Adwoa i have to tell you that I'm so tired of all this gourmand perfumes! Thats pretty much what keeps coming out. All sweet foods smells. Like when I see the name of the perfumes cake and biscuit I immediately don't want to know about them! I'm over it!!
Well, if I got burned, then, I got burned, but, I've purchased them both (haven't arrived yet), and, despite all the negative opinions expressed, I'm still going to hope for the best. I'm still fairly new to the frag game, so, I've not really been in it long enough to have seen what macerating a fragrance can do for it, but, for the most part, most of the reviewers do seem to believe that macerating does have some effect. I've got plenty of other fragrances still macerating, soon to be ready for inspection, so, sitting these down for a little while won't prove to be a problem. Let's see what effect giving them a month or two to develop might happen to have on them, before I decide to cast final judgement on them.
At this point am not sure what both are inspired by. It seems the Ministry of Gourmand line is supposed to be an original creation though but they could equally be dupes

Omg sis you look so adorable 💜
Omg sis that hair color is everything on you no lie
You are so sweet babygirl ❤
Thank you !
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 your welcome hunny. Sorry for the typo sometimes I type too fast. I fixed it 😆

Good morning gorgeous 🌸

You don’t need these.

Thanks for the review. I was tempted by the packaging 😅
They are not worth it 😌
Great review. Creamy biscuit looks interesting because I don’t like the cinnamon spicy notes in T Speculoos especially in the opening. You are trusted because you are honest. Never change that 💓
Hi Kelly, thanks ❤️
Then Creamy biscuit will be perfect for you. It actually smells like an actual tiramisu without the Speculoos/cinnamon
I cant wait to try mango jugoso. Thank you for this honest review. I love love love your channel. ❤
Think of biting into the juiciest, ripe mango you've ever had and having it smelling all around you. It is magic! No other mango fragrance comes close or gives me that feeling, and I have all the mango fragrances. Love, love, love 😍
Thank you so much ❤❤
You’ve saved my pocket I’ve seen many negative reviews about these two new releases, especially Cake Temptation.Thank you 😊
You're welcome! 😊
I hope it changes for the better with aging though
@ Hope so too
Hi Adwoa....yes, I have heard very mixed reviews on these two and, to be honest, I think I am a bit burned out on Vanilla gourmands. Thank you for your honest, authentic review. 😊
Yes gourmands especially realistic gourmands 😢
A lot of people are saying the same thing. I like how you said “slow down, we’ll be here” 😊💛
Yes sis! It is too much and greed has set in 😢
Happy holidays 🎉❤
@ yes, and you too! 🎉♥️
You are not the first person saying this is bad. It is disappointing because I liked the package, but at the same time a relief lol because I have other perfumes in my list to buy. Let’s wait for the aging process to see if gets better, but like you said, normally we understand the vibe of the perfume in the first sniff.
I agree they should take time to create something good. Thanks so much for the review.

Paris Corner would do well to listen to your advice. Love your honesty. ❤
Thank you ❤
Let’s hope they do 🤞

Yes I think you should hold off for now until you probably try them. They are not convincing currently 😂
Hello! I only have cake temptation. To me it smells like strawberry pie filling. We also have a candy here that it reminds me of, strawberry now & laters. I layer it with voux patisserie to tone it down some. -Ronnie
Good morning Ronnie! I literally just tried the combo you did and it tones it down and more wearable ! You are the man❤️
You look so gorgeous in African attire, this review will save me from blind buying ❤❤❤
Thanks sweetheart ❤
You may want to sample first 😊
They are good but not great
2025 I decided to slow down on viral fragrances and buy older fragrances and less known Arabian fragrances. Most viral ones are to basic or smell the same these days.
You look fantastic Adwoa, it's a free world, and your opinion is valuable🎉
Thanks sis 🫶🏾❤️
Happy holidays 🎊
Love your look Adwoa, you look amazing!! Thanks so much for the review, you saved me some money😅
Thank you so much ❤
Thank you Adwoa:)! Perfume taste is subjective, which is only natural-I appreciate your honesty! :)
Thanks Laura dear ❤❤
I placed an order this morning for Ginger babe, Jawhari, Mango Jugoso and Creamy Biscuit. I skipped Cake temptation I don’t do good with some of those fruity notes, but I’m so looking forward to trying these. Thanks for sharing your experience.❤❤❤❤
Yes to Ginger Babe ❤
Love the scent. Hope you enjoy them 👍
Another great video Adwoa. Let´s wait for the maceration on this ones.
Yes, hopefully, they get better with time. I will keep trying them🤞🏾
Love the look Adwoa 🤩
Awwww, thanks sweetheart ❤
Good point Adwoa 🎉. Synthetic smells are just not made for our organic systems. Only two I would allow. Iso E, and Metalic Aceton ingredients as an catalyst chemistry to provoke nuances to smell stronger.
Yes that’s why the body rejects a lot of these synthetic smells /notes
Strong alergic reactions.
Aaah Adwoa i need it in my collection 😍😍😍😍❤❤
❤❤❤

It is definitely not the best one from the collection. 😓
Same here 😢
With the release of Jugoso and coconut lagoon i was very hopeful for these. Might just have to count our losses this time or hope for a better outcome after aging 🤞❤️
Forgot to say, you look sisticated 😊🎉
So sad bc those bottles are so attractive. Was really hoping for a lemon cake. Such a shame😢
I understand. The bottles are definitely cute though 😔

I got coconut lagoon too. Easy to wear but love love Jugoso ❤
@ I think you love burst zesty refreshing scent 🥰🥰🥰

I think they might, let’s just hope they do but I honestly don’t foresee greatness in these. I wish they will prove me wrong 😂
Give it a few months and do an update please.I would like to know what it smells like
For sure 👍 ❤

😂😂😂😂😂
I bet my last coin on Jugoso. I can’t think of anyone who will hate it 😂
Adwoa i have to tell you that I'm so tired of all this gourmand perfumes! Thats pretty much what keeps coming out. All sweet foods smells. Like when I see the name of the perfumes cake and biscuit I immediately don't want to know about them! I'm over it!!
Right! I guess am equally tired but it seems that’s all the houses are releasing, gourmands 😌
❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Adwoa is looking gorgeous. Omoh, these sound disappointing 😩😩
Yes they are, 😥, but I’ll keep you guys updated

They really need to slow down indeed 😂😂😂
Facts 💯
Pay day incoming Mango Jugoso
For sure 👍 😂❤
The reviews for these are so bad. I was really hoping for house of sillage dupes!!
At this point am not sure what both are inspired by. It seems the Ministry of Gourmand line is supposed to be an original creation though but they could equally be dupes
@@adwoalovesfragrances5324 You are correct. I watched the tiktok live release and these are originals.
I just got these two today and they are horrible, I’m so disappointed
I perfectly understand that! Like how are these especially cake temptation out🤦🏽♀️
The bottles are cute, I knew they were giving house of sillage immediately I saw them
Yes especially the caps! The glitz and gold is beautiful 🤩
❤❤❤
