best perfume youtuber and it’s not even close. your descriptions are accurate, your reviews are fair and unbiased. i ran out and bought cotton abayed after you described as silk santal + mod vanilla and WHEN I TELL YOU THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT IT SMELLED LIKE. i knew right then and there no one is touching you 💅🏽
I see so many people decluttering their dupes and I did the same thing and only kept a handful. This year I’m only buying the originals. I gave away so much money when I could have bought a few original scents and been happier.
I used to not believe about declutterring because I never bought things unless I truly love it. But somehow I lately need to reconsider never say never if it’s served the purpose , do it. And I don’t seem to have any that same to your declutterring list! Can you believe I dodge all your 40 bullets 😂😂😂 i now gotta go through my piles… but I know it’s gonna worth it. I love how you can detect smells very well. I am still a baby and I have learnt so much from you ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you very much for another wonderful video 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love that! The if it had served a purpose part. That makes sense to me!! Haha congrats on dodging these haha some aren’t bad at all, just doesn’t fit in my current collection 🫶🫶
@ I want to learn more from your fashion and makeup. You are very knowledgeable and I am glad I found your channel ❤️❤️❤️ have a wonderful weekend 🥰🥰🥰🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I discovered your channel and I do appreciate you showing your declutter. I also like the way you describe the fragrances even your not keeping them. Lastly, I 💜 your eye makeup.
dang girl look at you go!! some of the bottles and packaging are so cute just to be on display but if its not going to be used, then pass it along for sure
Jamie described the Banana Bliss really well. It smells like artificial banana in the background at first, like banana runts, and it eventually blends and settles somehow. I admit it’s a little weird, but I do really, really like it! 😊I think I love that brûlée note more than anything. I’m new to gourmands, so maybe that makes me less particular.
I made an inventory of all the ME fragrances I bought and the decluttered ones. Overall, I bough 23 bottles and decluttered/sold 11 of them. I am waiting for Taskeen lactea divina and Ibisco Nirvana to arrive yet. Too bad I missed your ibisco Nirvana review. Thank you for sharing your decluttered ones, sorry they didn't work for you
Decluttered: Lattafa Bright peach Nebras Khamrah Caramel Macchiato Eclair RU serious Rue broca for her Sharaf Blend Zimaya Scarlet Jas Just Jack Afnan La fleur bouquet Al Rehab Soft Lattafa Reyna
@@aleishabudgetbeauty oh I just got it yesterday!!!! I couldn't believe my nose, but I smelled .....................Delina (on steroids) so sweeeett and a dry down with a plastic doll note running through it. It was just a little spray and went far, it was pretty potent. In the background, I smelled the hibiscus (I guess), but it was not prominent. Is the perfume changing in your bottle? I am okay; I'm not crazy about it. I just wish it was something else. I should have researched more, but it's still likable.
I've been here watching with my breakfast and sipping on my coffee this morning 🥰☕️ Every time you're saying "I wanted to love this" I am nodding my head yes.. because it's not like I got a perfume hoping not to like it, so why do I feel guilty sometimes when I declutter, and think I really should love this? 🙈😅 Yes I find the My Way line overwhelmingly sweet and bubblegummy 😂 Yup I agree on Bikini Season, I wasn't impressed with that one.. I have samples of Ind Skin and Ind Sandalwood from the Urban Outfitters line, and I like the Sandalwood, but not the Skin. 😊 This declutter is very satisfying! It makes me want to clean out my collection as well.. 🤔😅
I do feel a little guilty sometimes, especially if it’s one a friend loves. But, I also remember there are fragrances I may love that a friend does not, and I don’t get upset. So, I probably should feel guilty at all 🫶
Dolce Garden was a big no for me, it smelled so artificial like a coconut car freshener hanging from the rear view mirror Lol 😂 I decluttered Coach Dreams Sunset as well, it was a bit screechy to me too.. Great job on your declutter Aleisha!! 😊😍
This video had me rotfl between the cat dander and the gasoline murder scent🤣🤣🤣 I recently bought a ME fragrance on ebay and am convinced they switched the juice out because it looks like colored water and barely has any scent at all. No more ebay buys for me. Also, thank you for saving me from buying the hibiscus perfume because I've been eyeing it because of the pretty bottle but now I will not be getting it. ❤❤ And I'm with you about the constant dupes of the same scents! Looking at you Delina, Bianco Latte, Lost Cherry, Yum Pistachio! Waaaaay too many! Great job on decluttering 40 bottles! That is a huge accomplishment!
Haha I’m so glad I could elicit a laugh! Haha 🤣 I wanted to love that Hibiscus soooo badly!! If they tweaked it just a little it could be beautiful, but ultimately, it smells extremely dated 😭😭😭
Great video. I have a perfume that smells like gasoline but i wanted that, reminds me of working on cars in Puerto Rico with the flowers in full bloom, but again that was what i expected lol. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend ❤
I don't like lataffa lean either. I do love mango bliss by paris corner. Both mango forward, but bliss is sophisticated mango to me because of that added ginger note.
I got rid of my way and kept my way nectar! So much better for me. Also I got rid of garden too, it’s just too much!! I also decided to get rid of lintridit rouge! I know I can’t believe myself … it’s just too strong and mature now when I try to wear it :(
I am quick to declutter my perfumes/body mist. I feel good knowing I can give it someone else. Unfortunately, sometimes the perfume smells so unpleasant that I couldn't imagine gifting it to anyone else.
I also decluttered Bayn Al Asrar. It was close, but not close enough, it is not that well blended. The original is muuuuuuch better, but definitely not for everyone. The og is a nutty creamy woody rose with osthmantus
I literally gasped hearing the declutter of jameela and miral by matin martin. I kinda understand miral, but jameela!!!! Oh, Leen too!!! 😂 To each their own bc it's your collection, but JAMEELA!!!! Just kidding. I did combo jameela with blanch bette duuuuupe, and to me, it was gorgeous. Love your video and maybe do one where you bring your frags that others have scorched and you defend them. 😂❤
Haha well, the Matin Martin ones are actually not bad at all. I just don’t wear them and trying to be better about keeping what I love to wear. I wanted to love Leen so badly! It’s almost one I wonder if my juice is different bc it just doesn’t smell nice 😭😭 I love your idea bc I def have some of those! Putting it on my list! Thank you!!
Hello! I will buy your Jameela and Miral if you decide to sell! I still want to buy your M. Asrar Vanilla Rouge if you get tired of it as well. 😁-Ronnie
@Aliesha Budget Beauty There is a brand of perfume that has banana in it (I own it and Love it) it is called “Vanille Banane” by Comptoir Sud Pacifique Paris and you can smell the banana mixed with vanilla and it is really nice. I love banana scents and I agree with you that they are hard to find. I Love this brand. The next one from them that I want is Vanille Apricot. I hope this is a scent you will like with the banana. Sephora used to sell this line, but sadly they no longer do (here in Canada anyway) I trust your nose, and saw you did a video on the other two fragrances and was curious if you have tried the Sapphire Avri scent and what you think. I saw there is a licorice note in it and wondered how strong that was. I don’t like licorice, so that has stopped me from purchasing at this point in time.
We must have similar nose taste! I have both of those Comptoir sud Pacifiques and love them!!!! Such a good kind of hidden gem of a brand! I have Sapphire Averi and I do not get the licorice. I get more of a toasty crumble on a muffin 🫶🫶 very warm and cozy
If I can carve out some time, im going to list some. And, I have ones form a previous declutter, too. And, a lot of eyeshadow palettes to sell on top of that. www.mercari.com/u/user560598782?sv=0
After watching hundreds of reviews on ME fragrances, I realized that they are sure to be found in decluttering videos. ME fragrances are also easily forgotten and passed by. The hype is quick. New releases are not even mentioned after a few months. All of them are insanely great, until they are not. And as mentioned in the video, each ME fragrance house tries duping popular fragrances. They have really smart marketing people there. They make us by and keep us 'entertained' with new releases every month. So people buy, compare, look for nuances and declutter in the end. I personally tested around 50 ME perfumes, only 5 stayed with me. That's after spending hours on watching the reviews and trying to make wise decisions, otherwise I'd spend a fortune :) What I'm trying to say is that I sort of stop enjoying ME frags, I just got tired. The quality is not that great in the end.
I appreciate your thoughts here. I agree with most of them. When I first got into Middle Eastern fragrances, they made their own unique scents, and I still have most of them. I want them to go back to that. I actually think most are excellent quality and out perform designed half the time, but I’m just getting tired of buying thinking I’m getting something new and it’s another dupe
Friend what is you Mecari link? If you sell some of these in would like to take a look.
Yes😂 I want the Leen!
Yes, friend! I have zero things up right now but when I get some time will put some up!

Oh no, not the banana bliss😱 it’s ok😏We can still be friends😜🤣🤣🤣
Haha it’s funny bc you decluttered tiramisu Speculoos right! We should have bought one each and traded 😂😂

Sissss yesss❤❤❤ love this
Yay!!
Your eyeshadow looks amazing. What palette did you use?
Thank you!! It’s the new Simply Posh Cosmetics Snow Angel Palette ❄️

That’s true!!! Somewhere out there, though someone likes that bad perfume haha
Yes, foodie gourmands are definitely a mood. I usually wear them when it’s really cold or to bed, but if I crave it, I’ll even wear to work 😅
Haha people would be taking a bite out of you!

You’re welcome! Not a bad one just have to be a bold bold gal haha

Please try Van Cleef & Arpels line. Class.

I do not love Delina either and bought hawwa pink thinking it was Delina La Rosée dupe. Wrong I was so saad about it 😅
