I don’t get spicy and earthy from Delina but I definitely get screechy, harsh perfume. I don’t like it at all. I feel an assault upon my nostrils. I thought that I would like it based on notes but I just can’t. I love ME fragrances. I love the bottle’s I think they, for the most part, are made from good quality ingredients. You are right you just need to wait for them to develop. Listening to you describe the hot pink Barbie scent brings up my only criticism of ME fragrances, the names and packaging colors often do not represent the scent that well. Sometimes the packaging is too close to what they are inspired by or they miss it. I think the packaging colors affect what we perceive the scent to be. I love listening to people describe fragrances. 😊 great job!
Thank you so much!! Great point about packaging and how it can subconsciously effect what our noses anticipate relaying to our Brains. I COMPLETELY agree!!
Yessss Gulf Orchid!!! Underrated, underreviewed, and so worthwhile. I have their bottle of Sunset Kiss, and I ADORE IT!!! I’ve worn it every day all summer, and it’s gorgeous. Pls review? I feel like no one else knows about it!
This review was so good! I have also experienced scents changing over time or is it my nose getting used to them in a different way-definitely worth giving some perfumes a second chance though. The details you shared about the notes and the comparison to other fragrances are so helpful - I have my eyes on a few :)
That gasoline scent one sounds like TT’s Kirke and I love it. Not the gas note but I love Kirke. I have two ME dupes but the gasoline note is still there after months, but I am going to hold on and what develops.
You look gorgeous as usual💙🤍 the pop of yellow is so pretty! Lady Roza sounds, amazing! Spicy rose?? Cool! I love the packaging for Perfume Oasis as well! That alone would have made me keep it! Omg, this sounds beautiful peach, pineapple freesia, sandalwood. I am disappointed that you smelled gasoline at first! That’s wild! I like the Valkyrie Bliss bottle. Creamy lemon sounds interesting. I love that “ice” can be a note!! I need to smell Nora Melody!
A lot of people smell root beer in it. It’s not a note, of course hahaha I love a fruity high quality patchouli but hate a dirty or even fecal type of patchouli
Excellent video!! 👏 I’ve taken so many notes on what I want to try. It’s crazy to me how they change over time. I don’t think I like that though. I want to know what to expect every time lol.
Good morning Beautiful ❤❤❤ Great review!! You have several fragrances there that I am interested in! Guild Orchid is a company I've been researching thanks to ArahiWorld so I'm going to dive deeper into some of their scents among with a few others you have. Thank you!❤
Hello!!! You’re so welcome! So far I’m impressed with Gulf Orchid, and I can say, working with them has been lovely. That’s not always the case with brands.🫶🫶
The doctor of fragrances ! I love it and girl I love light blue so I was shocked when you spoke of the dupe being so good !!!! And ha ha not a fragrance being like gasoline then becoming a dream perfume lol also ice as a note that’s interesting ! Xx
I was excited when you said Elansor Valkeryie Bliss smells like a sweeter Light Blue. I immediately went to the website to purchase and saw the price of $75!🤨 That is more than LB on the discount sites. Oh well. I think it is one of the few ME dupes of Light Blue I have seen.
They didn’t start out this high. 😩 it was around $45, and not sure why it was increased. I have a discount code, but that only brings it down 10%. Maybe they will come back down again. It’s a 100ml, which isn’t too bad. I’m keeping an eye out for that price drop and will let you know.
Ahhh, that red and black bottle!!! You got to make a showcase spot for all these beauties. Lol, that gasoline story😂good you checked it again. Fragrances are intriguing, I'm becoming so attracted to try and learn more about it.
Ohhh vanilla rouge sounds good! The bottle and packaging is fab. Gulf vanilla sounded fabulous too! Although I do tend to like sweet vanillas 😂 Grape bubblegum sounds good too 😂 I remember grape hubba bubba Greats fragrances
My first experience with that was with Dua four out of five pretty bad one being horrific but letting them sit the horrific one ended up being my favorite. I’m still learning to not declutter right away actually did that was oasis same experience that you’re describing smell something really juicy underneath that chemical smell but I didn’t give it time, I sold it😢
Oh dang!!! I was soooo close to selling it, too! And, honestly, I wish we didn’t have to wait. I don’t think a lot of people would. I have two Duas that I love now and didn’t at first. Dirty Banana and Blueberry Brandy
So funny you say that about delina. I haven’t smelled it but have smelled inspired by’s and didn’t like them. So I’m glad you clarified that. I thought something was wrong with me. 😂
Okay, so I tested for sure after reading this yesterday, and it’s still not SUPER long lasting, but I always find that relative. What is short or long to some can be different to others. I get 4 hours on the skin and 6 on clothing. That was three sprays on the arm and three on my robe. For me, 4 hours is fine for fragrances under say, $75, but for some they want that 8-10 hours no matter what. That’s not possible most the time, so I typically over spray. But, I chose three bc that’s what most people do. Hope this helps 🫶🫶
Omg I’ve never had a fragrance smell like gasoline to me haha but I’m glad it turned around for you and worked out. I definitely give fragrance some time if I’m not in love at first too cuz sometimes a scent can change or just grow on you, that happened to me with Kayali Marrakesh in a bottle lol I think if I smelled gasoline at first with a fragrance i would immediately return 😂

Aw thanks, Katelyn!🫶🫶
That Jameela bottle is sooo beautiful 😍
It is 🤩🤩
Yessss Gulf Orchid!!! Underrated, underreviewed, and so worthwhile. I have their bottle of Sunset Kiss, and I ADORE IT!!! I’ve worn it every day all summer, and it’s gorgeous. Pls review? I feel like no one else knows about it!
Ooo I just looked that up. I’m trying to find a way to get a hold of it. It sounds lovely!
Thanks for putting it out there that you discard the boxes. Some are so over the top, I feel weird tossing them out!
Haha they would overrun my house haha
@@aleishabudgetbeauty Exactly

It’s kind of the fun of fragrance. I feel like I’m in a relationship with them haha My feelings can develop over time 🤣
That gasoline scent one sounds like TT’s Kirke and I love it. Not the gas note but I love Kirke. I have two ME dupes but the gasoline note is still there after months, but I am going to hold on and what develops.
Ohh this is so interesting! I have almost blind bought Kirke!
So well done Aleisha, love this video!❤
Thank you, Anna 💓💓
It's like a wine, you gotta let it breath
💯💯💯
Jameel is truly a beautiful fragrance. I have the Matheeq on my list to purchase and am so glad that you told us about it. ❤
Ohhh Matheeq is a big winner! I hope you love it 🤩
Been seeing this house alot lately, the quality looks great 👌🏼
Matin Martin? If so, the whole presentation and performance is performance is solid!
@@aleishabudgetbeauty yes Matin Martin and Maison Asrar 😮
You look gorgeous as usual💙🤍 the pop of yellow is so pretty!
Lady Roza sounds, amazing! Spicy rose?? Cool!

Anytime you want a sample, let me know! I’m happy to send you one🫂
I’m definitely adding some of these to my wishlist, especially that vanilla one 😍
I love it! I think opening spray you would be like what? No. But, 10 minutes later you would be like ohhhhhh yes
Love your video ❤❤❤
Thank you so much!!
LDBS has patchuli - not rootbeer lol . And some of us love that dark vibe that patchuli offers because it's nighttime, it's sexy, it's sensual
A lot of people smell root beer in it. It’s not a note, of course hahaha I love a fruity high quality patchouli but hate a dirty or even fecal type of patchouli
I love your recommendations❤
Thank you, beautiful!!

Hahaha it’s crazy how much they can change. At least they almost always change for the better!

30:20 I think this perfume might be duping or inspired by Magenta Tanzanite by Armani
Yes!! Omg so I figured that out a few days ago and after I filmed this. Such an expensive fragrance! I love this dupe!
The doctor of fragrances ! I love it and girl I love light blue so I was shocked when you spoke of the dupe being so good !!!! And ha ha not a fragrance being like gasoline then becoming a dream perfume lol also ice as a note that’s interesting ! Xx
I feel like a bit of a mad scientist over here sometimes haha 🫶🫶🫶
@@aleishabudgetbeauty ha ha I think that’s a total vibe the world needs !
You can always spot a makeup lover by the swatches on her hand😋😋🤣🤣 Did you just say tuberose?!😮😮😮 I’m loving all these bottles. Sooo pretty😍
Haha you caught me! I know you love your Tuberose! 🤩🤩

Barbie that gets raunchy… love how you describe these… 😂😂😂
Haha it’s all I could think about. Barbie gone raunchy haha
I'm really glad that the 3 you didn't love at first ended up becoming loves. It's nice when the unexpected loves happen, right?
It’s like receiving unexpected gifts haha
Ahhh, that red and black bottle!!! You got to make a showcase spot for all these beauties. Lol, that gasoline story😂good you checked it again. Fragrances are intriguing, I'm becoming so attracted to try and learn more about it.
I’m hear anytime you want to talk about them 🫶🫶🫶
Ohhh vanilla rouge sounds good! The bottle and packaging is fab.
Gulf vanilla sounded fabulous too! Although I do tend to like sweet vanillas 😂
Grape bubblegum sounds good too 😂 I remember grape hubba bubba
Greats fragrances
Oh you would love Duha for how much it smells like that gum!!
I don’t know what most of these references are, just watching to support you 🫶🏼
Love you for that. Thanks, friend!

It’s not just you for sure. Now Oriana… that’s one I think you would like the inspired by ones of if you haven’t tried them.
Does the one that smells like Light Blue last on you? I love Light Blue but it has no lasting power on me, I spray a lot and on my clothes too.
Okay, so I tested for sure after reading this yesterday, and it’s still not SUPER long lasting, but I always find that relative. What is short or long to some can be different to others.

@@aleishabudgetbeauty Thank you so much for testing it!!😃🥰🤗
people really do care about packaging!! a lot of my favorite scents I started off not liking - then they grew on me!
Absolutely 💯
Oh my goodness you like so similar to claudia glows she’s a UA-camr also but you’re much prettier
Well thank you!! I will have to look her up. I bet she is a beauty in her own right 🫶🫶
❤😊
Thank you!!

Haha it’s so crazy!! I love Marrakesh! That’s definitely one that gets better and better
I would love to try Pink Morganite 😍🩷
It’s soooo pretty!!!
I think it’s a dupe of Magenta tanzanite
