Lolita Lempicka will always be my main love- it can make some people recoil though- I was wearing it yesterday and a lady said that it smelled like dry rabbit's food 🤷🏻♀️- for some reason I thought her reaction to it was hilarious A very interesting gothy scent that I think you'll love is "Moth" by Zoologist. It smells like incense, black ink and iris. Very melancholic , deep scent
All of these sound beautiful. I own a few on the list and POAL is on my wish list for sure. Wonderful peak into unique and not really well known perfumes. Love Fils de Joie and recently read on Fragrantica from one review , that if layered with SL Ambre Sultan, FDJ smells like OG-pre-reformulated Poison by Dior. Hmmm 🤔. I’m so curious now because I love the 90s Dior Poison EDT, which to me definitely has that dark gothic feel❤.
Love this video! Honestly there is one that came to mind when I saw “Gothic Rose” and that is Nirvana Rose. Very Goth/dark academia vibes and the best part is I found it for $16 usd. I think the original Delina is somewhat gothic too because of the incense note.
When you were talking about Portrait of a Lady it reminded me of Wuthering Heights. In that book was the moors but not the sea (was the sea in that book?) Thank you! 🥀
Such great minds Gabi, I'm in such a Gothic floral mood this spring. . Despite assuming I'd want my usual green pretty florals. Between Lyric Woman and Noir de Noir, I'm a Gothic by day and night 😂 Season out the window, it's the dark but tender qualities of certain scents that are working their magic. Nice to see Lolita Lempicka here 😉. Always a must for a glorious Gothic x looking forward to Sunday
Can't wait to see you Lizzie, 😍 I love noir de noir too!! You are right it's tender qualities of a dark scent thst makes it even more wearable I feel 😉💜💚🩵
if I compiled some gothic florals, I would have to include Tubéreuse Criminelle (Serge Lutens). While Carnal Flower is also camphorous, it has some watery, lactonic notes that soften it whereas the Lutens is like a banshee's wail. It is also green and animalic. For the most vivacious rose that I hold dear to my heart (even over classics like Nahema), Eau de Protection (Etat Libre d'Orange), formerly called Rossy de Palma. It has a huge dose of patchouli but the rose is at once deep and radiant, with a metallic edge and spices that are fresh and dirty (ginger). It feels very complete, as the development and final dry down are rock solid.
I blind-bought Fils de Joie after watching one of your gothic scent videos, and goodness, it's amazing. I'm barely wearing anything else now. There's just something so wonderful and haunting about it.
We dream about, And scheme about, And we've been known to scream about, That certain thing called the Boy Friend❤ Twiggy was almost sacrificed to the god Dionysius in that scene. Very Gothic indeed Gabi😊
Yes beautiful Gabby we are extraordinary and exciting...You are looking exotically beautiful as always , love this video and the wonderful story you express to all these wonderful sents ...big hugs and love as always xoxo from Kat ❤
You're my favourite channel for fragrances, and I love how much you enjoy Mugler Angel. Could you do a video about Angel-esque fragrances? I feel as if Angel stands in it's own category and is extremely unique, but unfortunately the latest reformulation has ruined this fragrance for me. I'd love any recommendations for that original Angel vibe!
My all time favorite is POAL - it's the most profound experience - and I also enjoy Agent Provocateur L'Agent - no age restrictions necessary IMHO! I need to get my nose on Serge Lutens Fleur D'Oranger - I've heard you talk about it so many times now, Gabby - and I trust your judgment!
This video was a joy to watch ❤ I love Lolita lempika always thought it was a younger twist in the Angel family but also more refined, big fan of violet blonde too but not for everyday, got to be in the mood for it.
You have such excellent taste in scents - and films! Ken Russell's The Boy Friend. A fabulous point of reference for Anais anais. Now I am left to imagine which perfume China Blue would wear in Crimes of Passion...
Gosh, you're definitely making me curious about Fils de Joie... That one always scared me a bit; honey and green apple note mostly. Both notes can really turn into a big bess on my skin sometimes. Great picks! 😃
Secret Datura by MPG is the Carmilla sent. Embodiment of classic gothic atmosphere. Black Jade Lublin is a gothic rose, Yosh Omniscent is a dark dark narcotic tuberose in the night jungle. Paco Rabanne La Nuit is vampire rockstar, Gala Loewe is true succubus scent, Musc Viloressi is a blue fog surrounding enigmatic stranger, Bois de Violette is a fairy scent.
Hi Gabby, I would love to get portrait of a lady, I have always been tempted to get lolita lempicka, the bottle is so beautiful to, your nails are beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Gabi, I am so enjoying your videos. Seeing each new video of yours pop up in my feed is a treat. I love how UA-cam allows us to interact with other people who also appreciate and adore perfume. We all have curated our collections to our personal tastes and preferences and I find it endlessly intriguing to see how differently we approach the “hobby”and how different our collections are. Many times I'll hear someone share an insight or perspective about a perfume that I also own and it will totally renew & transform my appreciation and enjoyment of the fragrance. One such time was the very first video of yours that I watched-- it was your review of Allure Sensuelle, and I have absolutely loved & appreciated the complexity & beauty of that fragrance ever since. So I want to thank you for that. As far as fragrances in my collection that to me have a distinct Gothic vibe or mood, mine include: L'Heure Defendue VII (Cartier) Tempo (Diptyque) Oud Satin Mood (MFK) Le Lion (Chanel) Folie d'un Soir (Goutal) Santal Blush (TF) Carnal Flower (FM) Portrait of a Lady (FM) Victoria (Frassaï) Theo Fennell Scent Venenum Kiss (Ex Nihilo)
Wow very lovely 😍 some great scents there including theo fennel and Annick goutal . Allure sensuelle is such a lovely scent. Thank you for your kind words 🥰💜🖤
An amazing video once again Gabbi! You look absolutely beautiful! Spellbound would be a gothic fragrance for me! Opium as well! Thank you for a great presentation-as always!❤❤
Looking beautiful as ever Gabi. 🖤🌹 I’m always tickled to see perfumes I own on your list. I would love to get my nose on the original Fleur d’Oranger. I bet the funk (from the cumin) is phenomenal. Personally I love the funky facets from cumin! I’m on my second decant of POAL and have never splurged on a full bottle bc I think I like Epic from Amouage slightly better and I don’t need both! Or do I???? 😂😊
Sadly, my bottle of Portrait of a Lady fell off the shelf this year and smashed to smithereens. I've ordered a decant and am hoping it smells the same.
@@thefragrantician I felt I love with it first time I’ve smelled it . Such a chic perfume for ladies that lunch 😃😃😃 have a blessed weekend gabi ☺️🙏🕊❤️🔥🩸🌹🌸
My heart skips a beat whenever I see an upload, the way you describe scents is so addictive to hear 😄❤️
I adore this and it means so much 💗 💓
@thefragrantician no problem your vids are magical excited to see more❤️🧴
The nails ♥️♥️♥️🍷🍷🍷🏆
Red like the blood that runs through my veins!
I love unique scents, the more people repellent it is the better... i just love wearing otherworldly scents, unusual scents.
And this is,why i love my supporters thank you 😊
Somehow in this video you are “ extra hypnotic “ Gabi!!!! You go girl!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Yay! Thank you! I love that 😉💜
New to the site-love love love
Thank you Amy ❤❤❤
I love that you mentioned Boudoir. I wore that so much in the past. I am going to take it out and smell it right now!
Aaah that is a beauty 😍 of a fragrance!
💗💗💗💗
Hello love ❤️ 😍
Your Rosy blouse looks so beautiful 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I didn’t know anything about these perfumes and I love that! I love to learn about unique fragrances🤓🤓🤓
Thank you so much! I'm so glad youve learnt new things. We can all benefit from each other that's what I love about the fragrance community 😉🥰
Enjoy your review on these fragrances and you look beautiful in your red and black.
Thank you Paradise beauty 😘 ✨️ 💕
@@thefragrantician You are welcome 🤗
I'm dying to get my hands on Lush's Death & Decay. Love the way you describe it, and it sounds very alluring. Sending love from Melbourne Australia. x
Hello to Melbourne 😉 home of the set of Prisoner cell block H my all time favourite show! Thank you 😊 💜
@@thefragrantician Yes that show is fantastic. I wonder which fragrance boss lady B Smith would wear? Lol ;)
Yes some gorgeous ones there. I love L Lempicka and Portrait is good. I'd throw Amouage Epic W in there too
Yes, that is epic but you know I couldn't wear it!
Lolita Lempicka will always be my main love- it can make some people recoil though- I was wearing it yesterday and a lady said that it smelled like dry rabbit's food 🤷🏻♀️- for some reason I thought her reaction to it was hilarious
A very interesting gothy scent that I think you'll love is "Moth" by Zoologist. It smells like incense, black ink and iris. Very melancholic , deep scent
Rabbit food??? OK lol 😆 you know I don't own any zoologist scents they're not ones I'd blind buy!
@@thefragranticianIs the stangest comparison 🤷🏻♀️.
When it comes to zoologist I get samples first cause the scents can be a bit challenging.

Aaaah wow mamoni that's a great bit of knowledge to know 😉❤️❤️❤️
@@thefragrantician Lol, it’s making me want to blind buy (from the grey market, of course) Ambre Sultan. Have no idea what that smells like.
great selection! I've never smelt Lolita Lempicka - I have to try it!
It's,so whimsical gothic 🥰
Love the dramatic intro 👏
Indeed!

@@thefragrantician yes! Gothic romance!
The moors you're right and what a great piece of literature Wuthering heights is❤

Hello Paulette 🥰 thank you for being here 🥰!
Love your videos style. Love, how you talk about the perfumes. Very different from most youtubers. Pure pleasure. 👏🌻🌷👍
Glad you like them! That's so kind and it's exactly what I'm trying to achieve 😌

Yes!!!! Very haunting I so love that 🥰😉
Serge Lutens Le Fille de Berlin is pure rose! the juice is a dark red/purple so while it smells beautiful, it is lethal for staining clothes!
Thanks for the info!I need to sample it!
Portrait of a Lady! Glorifying, like the novel.. and amazingly electrifying like you said Gabi 👌💯💕
Yes! Thank you! It is electrifying indeed 🥰🖤💜
I still wish I could try Violet Blonde! 💜
You'd be a glamour puss 💜🤎
I just ordered a VB dupe from Unleashed Perfumes. I have gotten a few Amouage dupes from them and I think they are very good.
Now thats interesting i may take a look!@kellyac210

Well thank you. Im happy someone trusts my judgement haha 😄 seriously thank you 😊 🥰💜🩵
Have you ever tried Purple Patchouli by Tom Ford or A Travers le Miroir by Thierry Mugler? I can imagine you absolutely loving both!
No, but on your recommendation I need to try them!!!!💙❤️
I used to wear Agent Provocateur when I was 21! 😁
And you smelt like a queen Joanna!
🌹 🌹
🥰🥰
Fils de Joie is one I need to try. I keep trying to find a secondhand bottle, but they are rare, I guess people tend to hold onto them. 🙂
When I see you in September you'll have a bottle I promise 😉🥰🥰
This video was a joy to watch ❤ I love Lolita lempika always thought it was a younger twist in the Angel family but also more refined, big fan of violet blonde too but not for everyday, got to be in the mood for it.
Yes it has to be a certain mood to wear violet 💜 blonde I agree 👍
