Best compliment I ever received was from my hair dresser. She said, “it’s been an honor smelling you for the past hour! You smell amazing!” I was wearing girl of now shine.
Mariaaa😉🌸 The only one I don't have and didn't sniff is Shine. I adore the OG , Forever and Lovely. Those scents just do it for me,they become a part of me,I don't know how to explain it. Regarding to Lovely, you have to know that it is NOT the fresher take on the OG. It is even more potent. You can feel the mint only for a short time but then it becomes as sweet as it is but with a kick. I mean,I am probably very subjective. I just can't get enough of all of these. And can't wait to get my nose on the shine and bring it to my collection!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts in this video. Brilliant idea to cover this range. Personnaly, I adore the og Girl of Now, comforting, warming and optimistic.
GoN Shine is my favorite. Yes, please do a video on Dominique Ropion! My favorite perfume of all time, Portrait of a Lady, is one of his master creations!
I am wearing my sample of the original girl of now today. I live in Florida so this sweet sticky profile is not something I wear often but it’s beautiful. I do own a full bottle of Forever as I find is more wearable here. I do want to try shine.
Hey Maria looking beautiful! My favourite is Girl of now Forever, the bright fruity opening is very unique! However its the dry down that im in love with! Smells like Almond Vanilla cookieness after a while and its amazing! ❤
I have a Girl of Now sample and it's DIVINE! I am hoping one day to be able to have a full bottle of that lovely scent. Maybe I should have avoided the sample since it's so out of my price range, but dang, it's so good! Now, I want to sniff the other two, especially the Shine because of that pineapple, but maybe I should hold myself back, LOL. I really love your haircut! ~Cynthia
Cynthia, do you shop on the online sites? the prices are better than in store...it's still a good chunk of change though. Have you ever tried buying off of Mercari? the states has this site where you buy used bottles that people are selling...a lot of times (according to women that have used it) you can get really good deals if you keep your eye on it...I think it's Mercari.com
@@mariacollettlife Yes, I do shop online, mostly beause I have to, living in a rural mountain area. I have cruised Mercari a few times, but seems eveirything I want is always sold. Day late and a dollar short, as the saying goes, LOL. I do keep track on Ebay and have found a tester bottle for $43, which is the best deal I've found, probably the best I'll ever find, but it's hard to spend that much. I've been thrifty for so many years out of necessity and now, with our world the way it is, it's difficult to spend that much on a fragrance when, well, there are other needs more pressing. But, it is so tempting! I do love it and at least, this time, it wouldn't be another blind buy! Thank you, Maria. I guess I'll have to be more diligent about checking Mercari.
Hi Maria! I love your new hair cut and style 🌟 I recently had five inches cut. It's slightly longer than yours. I found the og too sharp and thick. Shine is my much more my taste, but I wish the Pineapple was more prominent. Haven't tried Forever yet. The latest one sounds very interesting.
Loved this thx! Ropion is one of my favs! I hope you do get your nose on lovely! Because now I’m curious!? I love mint in the summer! I’m about to pick up my spring summer perfumes to let sit: Chanel 5 Leau, pistachio yum or the Arab dupe 🤷♀️ and I usually get waterlily tea dress as it has some lemon and mint! But Lovely sounds good and different?
Hello Maria, I have never smelled any from this line of perfumes. I hear Shine being talked about the most as people's favourite. Hopefully I will smell them one day. I think I assumed they would be too sweet for me. Sometimes when I test something out that I overlooked I can be pleasantly surprised. Thanks for your video and have a good day! 💛🌷~ Jenn
Y’all want to know something kind of cool? I didn’t expect this but if you have the OG GON and JPG scandal by night, spray them side by side and wait 5 minutes. They smell so so similar , almost identical. I could barely smell the difference between the 2
I just got Shine delivered. First impression is that I don't immediately smell the pineapple but it definitely smells fresher then the og and at the same time it's still warm. I'll test it out more the next couple of days 🥰
Hey Maria, I am really excited about this video. I have all 4 of them. For the longest time I loved Forever the most, I love the raspberry in it, but you are right, that it is so long lasting that it becomes tiring. Lovely is the lightest of them all, and could definitely be considered a Libre flanker somehow. It is aromatic, but not lavender sharp. It is not green though, not really. I would have loved to have the mint to be a bit colder.
The OG GON and the shine version are tied for me, one for fall & winter, the other in spring, I still wear forever in the summer when I’m in the mood for it. I might give it to my daughter n law so it gets more love and use.
I just ordered Forever today. I love raspberry and lemon together! Hoping I’ll love it and that I’ll be rocking it this summer. I love the OG. Soooooo gooooood! These last forever on me too with just 2-3 sprays.
I LOVE forever, I’m on my second bottle. Shine is my next favorite, and the pillar girl of now is my least favorite (not that I’m letting it go!) I haven’t tried lovely either, largely bc I’m not sure it calls to me…
Hello, beautiful! Don't you look fab! I'm still living out of my suitcase (since FIFA Qatar) until I get back home to the Middle East next month so not as active on media as I used to be. This is a great comparison video. GIRL OF NOW was my designated fragrance for my Qatar trip & is now attached to fond memories. I bought it specifically for it. It was my first bottle of GON & I was actually complimented on it! I combined GON with Bum Bum cream & Brazilian Crush body spray & a GUY said I smelled so good! I BETTER, right!!!!! 😂Bottle was used up in 8 weeks & I know I will buy another bottle at some point! Love from Atlanta!
Shine is my favorite. I love the pineapple note. I have not tried Lovely. I have the other three and am planning to get rid of the other two and only keep Shine
Great review of these three. I think the OG is the most satisfying pistachio smelling perfume. Dominic Ropion is amazing. Don’t love everything he’s made, for instance, Jasmine Kusomono for Armani Privé really disappointed me, but he has created some of my most beloved fragrances in my collection. ❤
I prefer shine to girl of now however I wore it during the summer in the heat and that was a mistake. I didn’t love girl of now forever. I’m willing to try it again. A review on fragrantica said it smelled like bug spray and it ruined my decant of it but I want to try it again.
Yes, it's funny how a review can make us smell something differently...like some saying a perfume smells like pickles...if you smell it, then you can't un-smell it!!
I have & love all 3 , there was some times I hate the GON forever but other times, I like it. It’s easier to wear in the summer. I’ve never smelled the lovely version though
Pistachio yum goes amazing with Love Don't be Shy, Orianna or Ansaam gold...it would go well with any orange blossom fragrance. You could also put it with any vanilla. Out of the GON, I would pair GON original if I wanted more pistachio and warmth. I would pair shine if I wanted some juiciness from the pineapple.
These were so hyped up by several people so I had to blind buy. The original I dislike until about 20 minutes after I spray then it’s rather nice and warm and nutty. Shine just smells like cheap bathroom cleaner on me. I can’t get past that opening to see what it will smell like in the dry down 😕
Girl of Now and Girl of Now Shine are both on my wants list. I might bump Girl of Now Shine up to first because I'm definitely having a pineapple moment 🍍🎍
Best compliment I ever received was from my hair dresser. She said, “it’s been an honor smelling you for the past hour! You smell amazing!” I was wearing girl of now shine.
That's an excellent compliment!!
Shine is the best
I love your hair so much! Gorgeous!
Thank you so much!
Girl of now shine to me is the best . Loving your hair style🧡
Thanks Lisa!

@@mariacollettlife 😘
Hi Maria,this is a treat to watch n compare all these best sellers! Love from India❤️
Thank you so much! Glad that you enjoyed!
Which ones do you own out of the three?
@@ChIragg05 all three of them ..tbh my fav so far is SHINE ...but all of them are gem!
@@malvikasharma3044 my wife likes sweet and floral fragrances. Will forever be a good choice for gifting?

Great video! The lemon one is disappointing as the notes sound great. Yes please do perfumer video. That would be fun! Thank you ❤
Hi Maria!
I love your new hair cut and style 🌟 I recently had five inches cut. It's slightly longer than yours.
I found the og too sharp and thick. Shine is my much more my taste, but I wish the Pineapple was more prominent. Haven't tried Forever yet. The latest one sounds very interesting.
Yes, I could stand for a touch more pineapple too.
I have all 3 of these and I love them all!
I've been wanting to get decants of these. I'll have to do so after seeing your video. I love tropical and cozy.
The original is my favorite. Shine is my second favorite. I love them both for different reasons but shine can get a bit cloying sometimes.
Thank you Maria for the great video. I only have samples of GON and GONS. They are both beautiful. You look amazing by the way.
Oh thank you! and thanks for being a silent partner in the video Kathleen!!! 🥰
Loved this thx! Ropion is one of my favs! I hope you do get your nose on lovely! Because now I’m curious!? I love mint in the summer!

💛🌷~ Jenn
they are sweet but tolerable because of the nuts...
Hi Marie! You look beautiful! I am so obsessed with GON and GONS ❤❤
SAME HERE!!!
Please do videos on perfumers. I have been looking for this. Dominique Ropion, Louise Turner, Anne Flipo, Sonia Constant etc….
Okay, thanks for the feedback!
Great review ❤❤❤
Y’all want to know something kind of cool? I didn’t expect this but if you have the OG GON and JPG scandal by night, spray them side by side and wait 5 minutes. They smell so so similar , almost identical.

I got the Shine flanker a while ago because of your feedback!
I hope that you like it!
I do! ❤️

I don’t get the pineapple either! To my nose, this smells almost identical to the original, just a tad less sweet and nutty.

I need to sniff it!!!

One for every season!
@@mariacollettlife a staple for sure👍🏻♥️
Love love love thos collection ❤️
Me too!!
Girl of now Shine is where it’s at!

I love the OG. Soooooo gooooood! These last forever on me too with just 2-3 sprays.
Did you end up liking it?
@@lucibellasandverse Yes! I love the lemon with the raspberry. Goes great at the almost pistachio. Perfect for summer.
@@tina_smt Thanks for responding! 😊 I like any type of berry note with lemon, as long as it’s not too tart.
I LOVE forever, I’m on my second bottle. Shine is my next favorite, and the pillar girl of now is my least favorite (not that I’m letting it go!) I haven’t tried lovely either, largely bc I’m not sure it calls to me…
Thanks for sharing your order of preference!

I want to try lovely!

I am going to keep trying forever...I'm sure I will love it eventually!! 😬
I have all 3, I couldn't choose they are so delicious.
Which one would layer best with pistachio yum??
Pistachio yum goes amazing with Love Don't be Shy, Orianna or Ansaam gold...it would go well with any orange blossom fragrance. You could also put it with any vanilla. Out of the GON, I would pair GON original if I wanted more pistachio and warmth. I would pair shine if I wanted some juiciness from the pineapple.
Love you miss❤❤❤
Ah, thank you Pegah!!!
@@mariacollettlife 😍😍♥️
I love the original, forever and shine. I dont think I would like the new lovely one as not keen on those notes. Original is the best for me.
I love and use all of these perfumes .
I have Shine and the original. I love both but the original would be #2 and Shine is #1. That pineapple takes it over the edge❤
Same!!!
I still haven’t bought one Maria, because I can’t decide!! 😂😅
Go with Shine!
These were so hyped up by several people so I had to blind buy. The original I dislike until about 20 minutes after I spray then it’s rather nice and warm and nutty. Shine just smells like cheap bathroom cleaner on me. I can’t get past that opening to see what it will smell like in the dry down 😕
Thanks for sharing your experience with them. It's too bad that they didn't work out for you!!
Forever got weird on me too unfortunately 😢 I’ll have to try the original one
Yes, forever is SO different from the OG
Girl of Now and Girl of Now Shine are both on my wants list. I might bump Girl of Now Shine up to first because I'm definitely having a pineapple moment 🍍🎍
Pineapple is awesome!
The OG would be my vibe.
shine is the only that ive tried just a bit more flexable then og have u tried mile high 38 its to be a great pineapple
no I haven't but now I want to sniff it!
@@mariacollettlife o ok u have an awesome vibe camt wait for next video
Love original❤
❤❤❤❤
I can’t believe there is magnolia is girl of now. I hate magnolia. But I do love gon as a bed scent.
It's not very noticeable at all imo.
They all smell the same in my nose
They for sure are similar! Every nose is different in what they pick up 😀
