My god, you are sooo incredibly different from every other fragrance channel on UA-cam. You really know what the hell you are talking about! So glad UA-cam recommended you to me.
Instructional, through and through. Just when I thought I already know a thing or two, your video comes handy to provide for my all-over-the-place frag knowledge. On a very personal experience, I perceive that sandalwood notes supply not only the chemical properties, but -the grounding, meditative, mood to take you through the end of a day. I don't even mind if "iso-E" spells sandalwood. Thanks ♡ Josephine!
You are our Master Alchemist! I am totally investing in a fixative. I have the Guerlain Cologne du Parfumeur and it usually disappears within 5 minutes on my skin. I hope these tips will give me at least 2 hours.
If I may say, you will not regret..., but I would suggest to try even the fixatives out. For example, Molecule 01 and 02 smell perfectly on me, but Juliette Has A Gun: Not A Perfume turns to a stink on me.
Thanks for the video. One quibble: with no disrespect to old wives, rubbing perfume has no effect on molecules, merely increasing the rate of evaporation through larger surface area.
What a video! Thanks for the tips!! Another tthing I tend to do is rub a very thin layer of either Vaseline or Lip Balm on the areas I tend to wear fragrance so that it really locks in and stays there longer. Great job here!
Hi Josephine A very informative video with great tips 👍 Parfums de Marly Herod is in my opinion a master piece, one of my favorite fragrances and for me the No. 1 from PdM. Greetings from germany
Thanks for the tips! If I have a poor performing fragrance such as my YSL la nuit l'homme I hunt down the aftershave balm, any body lotions or deodorant. The body wash or shampoo usually doesnt last. I have never had a problem with longevity if I layer with ancillary products:-) I enjoyed the video and will have to try some of the fragrances mentioned for the wife
Moi j’aime beaucoup superposé not a perfume superdose avec vanilla vibes (entre autres). J’ai aussi remarqué que de l’eau micellaire hydratante (avec de l’aloé vera) que les femmes utilisent pour se démaquiller je suppose, améliorait grandement la longévité des parfums, sur ma peau en tout cas.
Great tips Josefine very interested on the hibiscus palm and vanilla vibes for summer . Today I'm wearing Sakura by maison Christian Dior . Have a nice sunday ! 🤗
‘Décolletage’, never heard that term, learn a new word everyday! Musk is a good long lasting bass note at the moment am enjoying Narciso Rodriguez for him which is a unique musk based perfume
Haha it looks like a few of you learned a new word 😂 Narcisso Rodriguez fragrances are lovely. I very much like the women’s range but need to spend a bit more time with the men’s.
Your channel is the one I enjoy the most. You are natural, well done. And you just cost me £200 in perfumes. Please advise me what to buy for my nephew, 16 years old.
Hello! Thank you very much for this video! This is one of my favorites. I appreciate hearing about the science behind fragrances. I'd like to request more of these videos please. Thank you so much! Really enjoy your content!
Love your videos Josephine. Very informative and must say you have taught me so much about fragrances. I have the Juliette has a Gun and was wondering can I layer that in the same way as the Superdose? I find that I can’t smell JHAG on me at all and I would like to put it in good use as opposed to giving it away. Sending my hugs all the way from Australia 🇦🇺 Ciao e grazie Mille 😘
Josephine great video! You mentioned Angelique noir which is one of my fave. I specially enjoy the green opening note. What other fragrance would you recommend from guerlain l’art et la maitre collection.
Jus de Rose I did end up buying Tonka imperial and I wasn’t disappointed! Absolute love! Thanks once again for informative content and your guidance as well as recommendations!
How do you layer a scent, for example, Giorgio Armani Pour Homme is my favorite EDT but it does not last long. Are you saying applying body lotion (which one do your recommend for men?) or Molecule perfume first and the the Armani after will make it last longer, or should the Armani be applied first and then the body lotion or the Molecule perfume? Please clarify or make a video on how to do it. Thank you.
Awesome tips Jus! Maybe for next fall/winter, I might mix PDM Herod with PDM Oajan which is an awesome gourmand. Do you think it would work if I were to mix Herod and Oajan on a decant and mixed it up rather than layering?
Hmmm good question. I’m not sure I would mix them directly together in a decant as the molecules over time can react in a different way. Probably best to stick to the skin!
@@jusderose I'll take your advise!😁 Come to think of it, I'll just wear PDM Carlisle, which is a combination of Herod and Oajan. The scent is fantastic!!
Love these tips! I often hear of reapplying throughout the day. I wonder how this works practically. Do you have travel sizes of all the fragrances you might want to reapply, create your own travel size, or carry the whole bottle with you?
If you like to reapply fragrances throughout the day I suggest you get these little portable fragrance atomises that you can fill with you own perfume like Travalo. You can many others on Amazon. That’s what I use or I have samples of my favorite perfumes that I just pop into my handbag 😊
Thank you for this informative video and tips. I know some of this but I learned a lot of new things, also I learned the right terms like volatility and fixative. It's interesting to learn this. Longevity depends also on the fragrance I think. I have bulgari aqva amara it's a edt but it's last very long, I can smell it the next day and has a good pojection. Bleu de Chanel parfum concentration last also very long but I have the feeling it doesn't have a good projection. Could you do also a video about different batches from the same perfume and reformulation. Sometimes I read at forms that a perfume is reformulated, but isn't true. And does a perfume smell stronger if it's older? There are videos about it but I like to learn it from someone who studied about this and have proper knowledge of it. Thank you very much.
Thank you for your comment! It’s true I’ve noticed that some EDPs smell weaker and have less longevity than EDTs. I’ve noticed this on designer fragrances especially. I’ll definitely look into the topics you mentioned. Thanks again for watching, really appreciate it. Have a nice Friday!
Sorry, concentration does NOT matter. I have plenty of Eau De Toilettes that last much longer than several of my Eau De Parfum’s and Extrait De Parfums and I’m sure that if you thought about it for a minute, you probably do, too. For instance, Amarige is an Eau De Toilette and it lasts longer and is much stronger than almost every other fragrance I have. Ingredients are much more important than concentration.
Some of the celebrity fragrances-Fancy by Jessica Simpson is a strong gourmand that many love. I prefer her Fancy Love(white bottle) and Ariana Grande Cloud. Rhianna and Sofia Vergara have some very well.reviewed ones also.
Hello dear, it's Josephine, not Justine :) Great to hear you're taking the leap. You definitely need to be passionate because it's a lot of work but I love it! Good luck!
Thanks for updating my knowledge on extending fragrance longevity. Living here in New England, I've noticed that not only does temperature, but seasonal humidity (or lack there of) effect performance, as well as the nuances of many fragrances in my fragrance wardrobe. Thanks for sharing . . .
Josephine, since we're both huge fans of Molecule02 (ambroxan) how would you compare Le Labo's Another 13 to Molecule02? If you've tried it, did you like it? Thank you for your time.
Two fragrances I like to layer are Jean Paul Gautier Le Male and Givenchy EDT Intense. The spiciness of Givenchy is perfect to dry down the sweetness of Le Male.
One tip I always give is to double spray on a area , the higher concentration of fragrance in one are will take longer to burn off. I got lucky , I've never had a fragrance / even body sprays that don't last until the next day on me. My mam is the same way , thank you genetics 😂 It can be annoying though, strong scents can last 3 days past multiple showers if I don't scrub myself red raw 😵 Interesting to learn about what it's like for others 🙏 some great tips! Wearing baronda by nasamatto today.
You’re beautiful & are so knowledgeable about perfume! What is your lip colour? It’s gorge. What’s frustrating for me is that I love love citrus fragrances!! I just bought Diptyque’s L’Eau De Neroli & JUST DOESNT LAST! Super frustrating!
Thank you 😊 my lip colour is Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Lips in “Too bad I’m bad.” It’s a matte liquid lip, great quality. I get your frustration. That’s why I think either layering with Molecule 01 or Molecule 02 from Escentric Molecules is great because it will help make it more long lasting. Have a lovely Sunday 😊
I like your reviews acually. I have allways layered oerfomes esspecially with essentrics. What will you reccoment to layer with essentric02 for a male?
One day i will steal that irish leather bottle through this window as u keep showing it at the back. Love the bottle designs but the scent is not so much of my alley LOL
From your first statement, all my fragrances are long-lasting because I found out that they stick very well to my skin... For example, I get 12h+ out of L'Homme Ideal Cologne.. So, yeah, no issues here :D
Congratulations on your pronunciation of the French fragrance names. Most perfume influencers just get it all wrong, to a sometimes comical or irritating degree. Well done.
My god, you are sooo incredibly different from every other fragrance channel on UA-cam. You really know what the hell you are talking about! So glad UA-cam recommended you to me.
Oh thank you, that's very nice of you to say!
I'm inclined to agree. The best communicator in all of fragrancedom, with a very well educated point of view.
The same. Josephine does not have rivals.
I just found out she went to perfumery school so it makes total sense

Waw! When an expert explains best layering techniques. The why, what and how. Original and exceptionally detailed💗👍
Hardly an expert... but thanks!
TY so much for making this video. So kind of you to take time to explain.
Thanks for the video. One quibble: with no disrespect to old wives, rubbing perfume has no effect on molecules, merely increasing the rate of evaporation through larger surface area.
This video was great! I'm really new to the fragrances world and I'm very grateful for this.
Thank you! 😊
S4ND4LD00D and Scent #1 by Zara are very good clones of Le labo's Santal 33. and the longevity is great for such a good price.
I agree S4nd4lwood has such a great longevity probably one of the best from Zara!
@@jusderose Do you have Santal 33?
Do you apply molecule 02 first and then the fragrance? Or at the same time, or how do you do it?
Thanks Justine, the layering tip was something i never really thought about. Good tips.
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Have a wonderful evening 😄
loved the video and I enjoy these more informative style vids over the '10 frags for spring' style list videos 👍
Thanks, happy to hear you like it 😄
What a video! Thanks for the tips!! Another tthing I tend to do is rub a very thin layer of either Vaseline or Lip Balm on the areas I tend to wear fragrance so that it really locks in and stays there longer. Great job here!

Nasomatto Black Afgano.... comment dire. Mon seul problème est qu’il soit de 30ml. Otherwise wonderful video. I will follow you now.
Thanks for the support, much appreciated!
Does spraying multiple times (e.g. spraying twice in one area) contribute to the longevity?
Love your videos Josephine. Very informative and must say you have taught me so much about fragrances.
I have the Juliette has a Gun and was wondering can I layer that in the same way as the Superdose?
I find that I can’t smell JHAG on me at all and I would like to put it in good use as opposed to giving it away.

Hi Nadia! Yes absolutely. With these molecular fragrances some can be anosmic (can’t detect the scent) but it doesn’t mean it isn’t there 😊
Josephine great video! You mentioned Angelique noir which is one of my fave. I specially enjoy the green opening note. What other fragrance would you recommend from guerlain l’art et la maitre collection.
Thank you! I also very much enjoy Tonka Imperial and Neroli Outrenoir, the latter being perfect for this time of year :)
Jus de Rose I did end up buying Tonka imperial and I wasn’t disappointed! Absolute love! Thanks once again for informative content and your guidance as well as recommendations!
School is in session and Josephine is dropping knowledge!!! 😊 Gonna be honest and say that I had to google the definition of décolletage 🤣🤣
😂😂😂
Great video. Love layering fragrances, not sure my attempts are always successful 😂
Thanks! Oh I had many, many fails... and some surprises haha 😂
Very informative video from a profi. Thank you Josephine!

Hey Josephine, thanks so much for the video. I was wondering do we put molecule 2 on the bottom or the top?

Hello dear, it's Josephine, not Justine :)
Great to hear you're taking the leap. You definitely need to be passionate because it's a lot of work but I love it! Good luck!
Really great tips!!👌👌😽👏
Thank you, happy you liked them 😄
