Hi, I have been watching you for about a year, your reviews are great and very detailed orientated. But I have the bonus of having my male cockatiel "Valentino" who always perks up when he hears your intro music and peeps then he waits for the "good good, good, I hope" and now he says "good good' with a slight British accent. When your cockatiel starts talking or squawking, well he is just over the moon. I am a Nurse and I listen to most of your video's while I am getting ready it just sets the mood for the day, so upbeat and positive. Thanks for being you.
Ok....Literally the BEST comment I have ever received! haha omg. THANK YOU! And thanks Valentino! Maybe him and Bo can be friends? Thank you, this has made me smile SO much!
Interesting video, as usual. I always learn something new! Entre Ciel et Mer seems quite captivating and a bit mysterious, now I want to smell it too 🙂 but it is a bit pricey, it seems.
So glad you had the change to try Limanakia! It's my favourite "sea" perfume: it really captures what, in my mind, sea is. Hope you'll do an extensive review of it.
This is so interesting, I got the beach sample pack from Bloom Perfumery and Entre Ciel et Mer was my favourite in the bunch. And then Deseo is one of my fave budget buys but reminds me more of the desert, especially the desert during a thunderstorm for some reason (although I guess that’s sand and water so pretty much the same as a beach 😂).
Love love loooove listening to you❣️ you know sooo much about parfumes, and make it so easy and fun. You describe them so well - it’s amazing! And, you have a wonderful personality, you really make the world a better place, one video at the time!✨💖✨
Aw thanks so much. When something is your true passion? It comes easy. this is my life. I left a boring job to do this so, mesages like yours make it worth it!
ouch110 Fragrance Reviews So important part of life - to find that job and thing that you really, really relate to and enjoy! I have just left my job because it made me so unhappy. Seeing your passion for perfumes makes me believe that I will find that something in my life too. Warm greetings🌷💗💗💗
Quick question if you have the time, and care to answer. What was the last time you caught the slight scent of someone, male or female, that made you stop and ask what they were wearing?
Yeah I did and she turned out to be wearing a frankincense based aromatherapy. Anyway the best way to compliment a person on his/her choice of fragrance is to ask them what it is.
I think about doing it allll the time, living in London I smell people wearing things all the time on the tube, passing on the street, in lifts on escalators but people are so in a rush here I always miss the opportunity. The last time was when I was in the theater, but...it was dark and this amazing smell was coming from someone around me or behind me...it remains a mystery. The one that haunts me is a lady in a shop about 10 years ago, I never asked her and her scent swirled into the shop....argh!
DESEO and Still in my opinion is the most sophisticated fragrances by Jennifer Lopez. They both smell much more expensive than they actually cost and you can tell the perfumers put a lot of thoughts in the creation. Unfortunately Deseo has been discontinued. Regarding the awkwardness in spraying the Deseo bottle, just hold the bottle sideways in your palm and press the nozzle with your thumb and it will spray very easily. I'm surprised you haven't done reviews on Deseo or Still because I do think they are gems among celebrity fragrances in terms of quality and uniqueness.
One of my favorite beach-like fragrances of all time is L’eu D’Issey Pure Issey Miyake. It’s a Dominique Ropion fragrance (he’s my favorite perfumer as well). It’s a Lilly dominant fragrance with other white florals like jasmine, orange blossom, and rose (but I don’t get much), ambergris, sea notes, and cashmere wood. It’s very floral but also quite briny like the ocean, salty…. It’s quiet, kind of meditative… I just love it. I live at the beach and I’ve gotten loads of complements.
This turned out to be such a fun and even funny vid. Even though I'm not into sea-inspired frags, I was curious...and got pleasantly entertained. 🏄♀️ Btw I'd give up a beach holiday for a couple of bottles of new frags. Anyone else here is this obsessed?
new subscriber here thanks for another great review lots of surprises on your list I love beachy fragrances on other people & sprayed on the linens before bedtime the closest I get to wearing an aquatic is TOM FORD OUD MINERALE Im a fan of it's strange beauty & emotional memory response for me its a big compliment getter as well JIM from MIAMI BEACH
Hi Jim, glad you liked the choices. Coming from Miami I'm guessing you must have some great beachy scents, OR... maybe you wear entirely different stuff BECAUSE you live in a beachy area...intrigued!
I do wear beachy/salty/oceanic fragrances by BVLGARI & NAUTICA & TOM FORD if Im staying outside in the heat but we live in AC & travel in AC so it is more of a seasonal thing so now I'm wearing some great AMBERS by ISSEY MYAKE & TOM FORD in a few months I'll start wearing PATCHOULI based scents by TOM FORD & LUSH thanks for your reply JIM from MIAMI BEACH
Noooo *_beachsea's_* here anymore. he he .see ya changed your title search . I'm a fan of the beachies I really am. The one I was using , though it isn't classified as such, was _i profumi de firenze Breaza de Mare_ . I think that's how you spell all that. Also some Tom Ford's . MANDARINO DI AMALFI , the Sol . I really wanted to sample By Kilian's Miami ones. I also like Profumum almond ones too . I realize these aren't really considered beachy , but I like them . I will sample some of your suggestions. Thanks Thomas best wishes always
There are two blue Armani Privés -> One is dark blue ("Bleu Lazuli" - smells fruity, plumy, spicy) and the one I was recommending you to smell was the oceanic and very luxurious smelling turquoise bottle ("Bleu Turquoise") - this is how a luxurious sea, sun, ocean, yacht holiday must smell like. My guess is, you will like it veeeeery much :)
@ilovemuzik I thought the same thing, but I got a bargain on Notino website (120 ml bottle for 125 euros) and finally bought it, doesnt last all day, BUT! Last around 6 hours on me and thats quite good if you ask me.
Zuzka Štenková Well, VIW is not bad but too similar to cheap alternatives like Coconut Lime Verbena or Coconut Lime Breeze by Bath and Body Works. I liked VIW at first but quickly got tired of it and now do not find it unique at all.
@ilovemuzik Well I agree that the opening is way too similar, however the drydown is very very different. And the opening of VIW to me is the worst part of it, soo..

So cute, the part about your cockatiel..it's what Thomas would sound like if he was a bird...
Ok....Literally the BEST comment I have ever received! haha omg. THANK YOU! And thanks Valentino! Maybe him and Bo can be friends? Thank you, this has made me smile SO much!
I looove beachy scents! My favorites are Guerlain Terracotta and Giorgio Armani Sun di Gioia. They’re the essence of summer for me 🌻
Terracotta is love! So beautiful!
Lovely reviews! I really enjoy beach scents and feeling transported. Thank you!:)
Interesting video, as usual. I always learn something new! Entre Ciel et Mer seems quite captivating and a bit mysterious, now I want to smell it too 🙂 but it is a bit pricey, it seems.
I really enjoyed this video as well as your selection and your way to describe them. THanks
Just found your channel. Love it. Such the personality you have!!! ‼️‼️‼️👍🏻👍🏻✔️
Thank you!! :) I love ASMR.
Nice one. Some interesting sounding ones. And, I remembered to thumbs up and comment :)
So glad you had the change to try Limanakia! It's my favourite "sea" perfume: it really captures what, in my mind, sea is. Hope you'll do an extensive review of it.
It's slightly weird but kinda cool! :)
Some really interesting ones here. I need to try these! Thanks Thomas.
I love this one!!! Beachy smells are my favorite!!

I loved this video! The backdrop really brought out the color of your eyes too

It's a really cool one. I haven't done reviews because I owned my bottle way before I had my channel. :)

Oooh. and yay for Dominique.
The last one sounded interesting. PG fragrances drive me nuts though; they never smell like I expect!
Same!!
Definitely a few I need to try. Great video as always:)
I so want to hug you!
Awwww HUGS. :)
Me too! 😊

Deseo it is discontinued 😓
You have to try "Bleu Turquoise" by Armani Privé. Might just become the most luxurious and sexy smelling beach & sea fragrance ever for you...
Ooooh! Thanks I'l sniff it next time I'm out, I'm guessing it's the blue jewel lid?
There are two blue Armani Privés -> One is dark blue ("Bleu Lazuli" - smells fruity, plumy, spicy) and the one I was recommending you to smell was the oceanic and very luxurious smelling turquoise bottle ("Bleu Turquoise") - this is how a luxurious sea, sun, ocean, yacht holiday must smell like.

Limanakia in Greek means ' little ports' so I guess that explains the stagnant water smell 😅
I thought it was about a beach which is known for sordid sexual activity? These perfumers and their perfume names I get so confused. lmao
❤
No Acqua Di sale?
What's that?
Hey..Ramblege & Transportative are good new words for me? Thanx..💖💖💖💖 (Love this video) you're funny, guy!
Haha thank you!
No Virgin Island Water?!?! :O

I got Miami Glo and disliked it straight away so much it went right to the trash can. Get away!
Deseo is out of production, for ever!
:(
