Emma! Thank you so much for including RISE + SHINE in this video. We're so happy you love it! We too really wanted to smell like a cinnamon bun for fall (who doesn't??)
The way you're feeding my perfume obsession right now; I don't like to spend money on myself but perfume makes me feel amazing, and I'm letting myself branch out and buy myself scents that I really want. Thank you
I just love the fact that you’re honest. Just because a brand sends you free fragrances, doesn’t mean you kiss their ass so you can keep getting more free fragrances. That’s the problem I have with ALOT of these perfume UA-camrs. They rant and RAVE about every single fragrance they get, but once you get it it’s trash. Aka middle eastern fragrances 🙄 I have never jumped on that train and I never will! I love that you don’t really talk about them much. I just appreciate that you’re honest, that’s all I’m here to say. I also love your long videos, and the science tidbits you put in about fragrance. It’s absolutely fascinating. ❤
okay this peach discussion is super interesting to me because ripe peaches are literally my favorite scent in the world, yet every peach perfume i buy NEVER smells like peach and it’s super disappointing. the best one i’ve found, in terms of actually smelling like a fresh peach, is actually sweet peaches by venom scents (i’d love to hear your opinion on this one), but they haven’t even released a full sized bottle yet and i feel like im going crazy!! all i want is the perfect peachy perfume :’(
Excellent analysis of peach scent - I know understand why I hate all peach fragrances despite it being my favorite fruit and one of my IRL fave smells 😭
I think Kilian's Oak accord has indeed an Apple touch to it. Their original "Apple Brandy" perfume also has Oak listed and gives off an apple smell as well. Love them both!!
You make me laugh with your facial expressions 😂. I can kind of tell what your impression of the fragrance overall is by your face. It has amazed me since I started getting different perfumes and wearing them how much a perfume can change from initial impression to long term wear. Thanks so much for trying these and sharing your thoughts ❤
I love a good dupe, who doesn’t? I haven’t tried Angel’s Share but I blind bought Lataffa Khamrah and it is one of the greatest perfumes, in every sense, of all time. It is so classy, unisex, comforting yet strong, boozy but cinnamon sweet. It smells like a seductive, woody, holiday retreat. It’s very grown up and sexy indeed. I love it. Lasts FOREVER and hearing your description of Angel’s Share further proves to me that Khamrah is the perfect dupe. Highly, highly recommend.
As someone who has tried both, Khamrah isn't close at all and wasn't intended to be a dupe. That being said, some people do like Khamrah better. I heard Maison Alhambra Kismet or Fragrance World Cocktail Intense is the closest.
@@bethyhowl6035 that’s interesting because it has definitely been called a dupe by multiple sources, even if it wasn’t intended to be. I personally purchased it for that reason alone after doing some research. Also, based on her description (and that of many others that review Angel’s Share), it does seem that they are pretty much the same. Maybe they do smell completely different, but that would be incredibly odd if the scent profiles are so similar. Do you prefer one over the other?
girl i had the exact same reaction to happy dust by narcotica!! i'm absolutely in love with this fragrance. it's sooooo pretty and delicious. i was actually stopped by a girl on the way into work to tell me how good i smelled when i was wearing this!! ❤
Love your reviews Emma! Fall fragrances in my rotation are Tihota, Blanche Bete, Delina Exclusif and Vietnamese Coffee (I just ordered a full bottle from Luckyscent after using the decant and I love it).
I think the reason why you’re smelling halls is from that amaretto which tends to smell like cherry, hence the cherry halls cough syrup and that mixed with the fruits gives it a sourness
I was drinking wine while watching this. Made a drinking game into things by taking a drink every time you adjusted your shirt/hair. I am drunnnkkk. Love it!❤
Loved the vid!! I would really like to see a video of your perfume dents… and maybe a perfume declutter if you so wish to cleanse your perfume collection! Much love from Greece ❤
LOVE Blue Madeleine. But Dear Polly is also one of my favourites and also has a "cigarette smoke" dry down, so I think that may just be something I'm attracted to.
Again, such an infectious energy and enthusiasm ❤❤ also super informative - I love your side-notes containing more and more digging down some research rabbitholes. My fall vibe today: TF Cherry Smoke layered with Zara TOB/03, which has dried fruits, cinnamon, benzoin, musk ... they blend really nice.
Peach being a synthetic made from a lactone aldehyde makes so much sense especially for Kilian Good Girl and Good Girl Extreme. Both have peachy milky aspects to me from the osmanthus. The original even smells a little spoiled imo like some peach fragrances to me, but the Extreme manages to take more of the creaminess from the lactones.
I just bought angel share and 15 minutes out of the store I got a compliment! I love it. I did try the brandy one and although it outlasted angel share, I don’t care for it!
I have gotten into fueguia 1833 last year🥰, 200-300 perfumes in their line, and all of them are real high quality, some of the best even among niche brands. 100+ is a HUGE line, and I can’t figure out how all of them managed to be at least from average to top niche quality. I am lucky there is local store here where I can smell them from time to time, cause it is a huge collection and going through them takes time.
I need to get into sampling more but I bought the rise and shine based on your review and I’m excited 😆 Also my sister is obsessed with Aesops virere so she was happy to watch your review on it
eyes closed by byredo is very cinnamon based, its very warming and spicy; its supposed to replicate the warmth of breath as you lean in to kiss someone, its encompassing but still gentle, if you're into cinnamon in fragrance its a must try
Interesting reviews! My favourite cinnamon perfume is Une Nuit Nomade Sugar Leather (should be called Cinnamon Sugar imo!) I was also disappointed in the Peach's Revenge, I liked the juicy peach opening and I did get the caramel and amaretto but I found they didn't last on me at all? (Plus the peach is somewhat artificial/cough syrupy to me as well, maybe it's a Canadian thing? Lol) My fav perfumes with peach are MDCI Peché Cardinal & Killian Liaisons Dangerous (though neither are gourmands) I think for gourmand peaches I'm going to stick with cheaper indie houses since the note is so hard to make natural and realistic anyway, like Haus of Gloi Pumpkin Queen & Peach Rings, and the Canadian house Pulp Fragrances gourmand Embrace (pumpkin shortbread with butter, apricot preserves, & brown sugar). She also has a cozy sounding tea series called "Steeped in Slaughter: Tea & Cozy Mysteries" that I want to try! I found Blue Madeleine on the tannic side for my tastes as well, so not really creamy enough for me. Have you tried Solstice Scents? I think you might really enjoy the Fall Collection! (should be releasing soon) Their gourmands are excellent, esp. Owl Creek Aleworks (this is sweet and malty, not like beer at all!), Corvin's Apple Fest, Blackburn Parlour (banana split!) & Halloween Night (black jelly beans), but they have many others! (PSA: just beware you will probably be hit with duties in Canada, I was unfortunately, but still worth it imo!)
So, who blind bought a full bottle of Blue Madeline? Meeee🙋🏻♀️. Like you, I found the smoke to be overwhelming at first. However, it's been 3 months, and I don't get smoke now, but instead a whole lotta black tea. Which is a marked improvement, but still not quite what I was expecting. It's a nice milky tea, but no madeline. 😢
Finally someone who had the Same expirience with blue Madeleine as me! I had such high hopes because i was expecting a Gourmand tea fragrance and all the influencers described it as a Micky Sweet tea and than it just smelled like smoke🥹
If you pour a glass of Cognac you'll find it is very fruity, that's probably where the apple is coming from. I've been dying to try Narcotica. Love these videos!
i almost got sick smelling old fashioned in the store it smelled exactly like HARD LIQUOR but I still liked it and definitely paired it with by the fireplace IT WAS THE COMBO🙌🏾
THANK YOU about blue madeline!! it is sooo smokey. Definitely not bad but the marketing is so misleading for something that they literally named after a cookie and used pastels to just give such a smoke forward scent was wild to me. In love with the bottle tho
Finally starting to see Pierre Guillaume mentioned by non-European fragrance folk online ❤ would love to hear what you think of Tonka Bodykon. He is a master. Phaedon is his work too ❤ You've also given me a lot of ideas for my wishlist too❤
I feel the same way about happy dust, waiting till spring to pull the trigger, but getting an inspired by to hold me over. Right now I can’t stop thinking about Angels Share and will def be a purchase for fall/winter. Khamrah Qahwah is good, but doesn’t exactly satisfy what angels share does for me.
Angels Share for me too does smells like apple pie!!! It does remind of an apple pie from McDonalds (I know, very odd and specific) but I love it! 🤣 Someone told me that it smells like peach cobbler... and I get it too
i'm commenting this a few times cuz i want you to see it... do a candle review video!! especially fragrance brands that have released candles, or just ones with interesting, nuanced, complex scents etc, and at different, esp affordable price points! pleasee!
This was such a chaotic video and I loved every minute of it! Been looking for a new fun fall scent and absolutely adding samples of un crime exotique & and tilda swinton in my order today!
You got me started on such a perfume journey from your London Fog layering video, now I'm building my own little collection and apply twice a day lol. I got a scent from a new brand from South Korea called Villa Erbatium that makes my eyes roll back, it's so delicious and boozy and syrupy and warm and fruity, called Fig Whiskey. Would love for you to check out the brand (gorgeous bottles btw).
I smelled angels share a few days ago and I also smelled apple! I sprayed it on my sweatshirt and then went home and my room still smells like it even 3 days later it’s beautiful
Ps. The BEST peach fragrance I’ve ever tried is Southern Peach Tea; no ketones or rotten fruit smell.. definitely a freshie but a long lasting beautiful one!
I bought a sample of blue madeline thinking that it would similar to what you expected and while I don't get cigarettes on the dry down I did feel really let down by it! I was hoping for a sweeter more gourmand leaning scent, thankfully I still like it but I won't be reaching for it super often, On the other hand I also picked up a sample of their Lune Feline scent and have been OBSESSED!!! It's so lovely! Definitely what I'm going to be wearing this fall
When you said you blind bought Peach’s Revenge, I was like “Ooo gurl… 😬😬” and was waiting for that reaction… I also got the same medicinal syrupy impression, unfortunately.
i LOVE the sample i tried of peach’s revenge but it’s not in my budget to get right now - hopefully soon. your research about aldehydes, lactones, and ketones was interesting though!
I love this video idea! I think it’s a little misleading to have them called blind buying my wishlist though since they’re normally all sent through PR.. in any case I enjoyed watching this!
mirage gourmande to me smells like a lot of cake when you first put it on, but in my opinion after it settles in and dries down a bit, it turns into such a nice vanilla! i think it's just getting over that initial overwhelming cake scent XD
I think cinnamon is hard to pull off and capture the feeling of a dessert. I notice this in baking a lot where what I THINK is a delicious cinnamon smell is really cinnamon, brown sugar, butter, nutmeg, and whatever else I’m mixing together to get like a full picture of what I might think of exclusively as cinnamon in my head
Hi Emma, I really appreciate your opinions and your descriptions of these fragrances. I’ve watched almost all of your videos. Anyway would you cover jousset parfums, I would really like to see your take on it.
I wonder if old fashioned is doing what peat does in scotch- peaty scotch comes off as super smokey when its just really strong herbaceous wheaty and earthy notes that give off smoke all combined
Favorite fragrances for fall: Clean Reserve Sueded Oud, Ellis Brooklyn Après, Liis Bo The Dyad packaging was so cute and makes me want to try it! Btw I bought a 10 mL decant of Bianco Latte from a perfume store. I had tried it maybe twice in store and thought it smelled really good, but now every time I try it there’s this weird strong chemical burnt tire smell that takes a while to evaporate and it’s really unpleasant! I’m so sad 😞
Love the video! Shocked by your Blue Madeleine experience!! No cookie for me either, but the cinnamon tea for me was amazing! I don’t get the cigarettes, but I do get that in the ever-popular vanilla woods! And thank you for trying Like This!Random question - can you link your sweater?! I love the color and neckline and cuffs!
Emma love the video and can’t wait to watch the rest! I wanted to tell you that right around 14:00, all of the aldehyde hypothesis takes got added to your video. Just wanted to let you know :)
Yeah I get apple associations with some cinnamon notes too, especially in Angels' Share, but I'm sure they don't always list all the notes. Lol because the apple pie vibes are very obvious to me. More like deep caramelized apples with cinnamon so the fruit is not bright and dominant as to blend in discreetly with everything else. Like when food is cooked together as opposed to individual ingredients.
Emma! Thank you so much for including RISE + SHINE in this video. We're so happy you love it! We too really wanted to smell like a cinnamon bun for fall (who doesn't??)
Thank you for being one of the first to watch!❤ the scent is soooo good!!
What's your favorite Killian scent besides Angel Share@@perfumerism
@@YummyGummy77 Bamboo Harmony!

I think Kilian's Oak accord has indeed an Apple touch to it. Their original "Apple Brandy" perfume also has Oak listed and gives off an apple smell as well. Love them both!!
I want you to know that I loved the synthetic peach info. Really interesting.
Same! So in depth and interesting.
I also felt Angels Share smelled like apple pie when I first smelled it. It’s so yummy!
That inception of information made me chuckle. Love your videos. ❤
I just started (binge) watching you and your energy is absolutely infectious!
I love Angels Share By Killian for autumn and winter, and highly recommend you sample Apple Brandy on the Rocks! 🍎🥃

I've yet to try the other two that I've mentioned.
Kismet is not as close to AS as people say😭😭it smells like if AS went stale and was less sweet
Hey girl totally peeped that sweater you’re wearing from your video on Phlur! Looks great on you 🫶🏻
girl i had the exact same reaction to happy dust by narcotica!! i'm absolutely in love with this fragrance. it's sooooo pretty and delicious. i was actually stopped by a girl on the way into work to tell me how good i smelled when i was wearing this!! ❤
I love your sweater, the color is gorgeous on you and I love the neckline 😊 tobacco scents 😍😍
Absolutely Love that you own your mistakes. No shame in that game. 💯❤

Omg ahhahah I adjust so much!! Hope ur okay heheh
@@perfumerism 🥰🥰
@@didikennedy9079 Same! Couvosier Cognac
@@Cillasco fancy! Haha
LOVE Happy Dust! I reach for it all the time. I am also obsessed with Mula Mula Double Caramel for Fall.
I love peaches revenge, and I don’t even like peach in my fragrances typically. But I love how musky and ripe it smells. I hope it grows on you.
Peaches revenge the initial note is yuk but after it sits for 10-15mins it turns into this beautiful scent!! Let it sit for a while!
Gris Charnel is my favorite for fall ❤
Love the honesty… Congratz on the 90k 🎉… i am now curious to try glow ❤
Happy Dust is my #1 scent of all time 😊
yesss totally love it soooo much!!!
Eyes Closed from Byredo smells so much like cinnamon. And I think because of that it’s leaning masculine but I love it. 🥰
Loved the vid!! I would really like to see a video of your perfume dents… and maybe a perfume declutter if you so wish to cleanse your perfume collection! Much love from Greece ❤
Mirage gourmand is 1000/10 for me lol but the Madeline one does smell like smoke , I agree! Thank you for the lovely video
LOVE Blue Madeleine. But Dear Polly is also one of my favourites and also has a "cigarette smoke" dry down, so I think that may just be something I'm attracted to.
Have you ever tried Jasmin et Cigarette by ELDO? If you like a smoky note it may be up your alley!
@@hannahyalea no, but will try to get my hands on it! I like a couple other ELDO fragrances. Thanks for the recommendation!
Maybe you'd like City on Fire by Imaginary Authors! It has that same cade oil note that makes it veeerryyy smoky 🚬
Loved the side tangent on peach 😂 honestly I’d love a video just about how we achieve certain scents perfume and the various challenges.
Black Opium Over red is gonna be my fall fave that and Burberry Goddess really have me in a choke
Again, such an infectious energy and enthusiasm ❤❤ also super informative - I love your side-notes containing more and more digging down some research rabbitholes.
My fall vibe today: TF Cherry Smoke layered with Zara TOB/03, which has dried fruits, cinnamon, benzoin, musk ... they blend really nice.
I love watching your videos and hearing you talk about fragrances. You’re so beautiful!
The guy in store told my partner and I to layer angels’ share and old fashioned together… we were obsessed and it smelt lovely😍

If you're getting into cinnamon fragrances, try Jo Malone's new Hinoki and Cedarwood launch. It's a really fresh, aromatic cinnamon it's so unique.
I need to get into sampling more but I bought the rise and shine based on your review and I’m excited 😆

my favourite fragrances for fall are 🍂🍃🍁Magenta Tanzenite by Armani, Blessed Baraka by Initio and Angel's Share by Kilian (of course!) ❣
Have you ever tried indie perfumes? Would you make a video about them?
“(idk if this is true lol)” is me literally all the time like i understand that sentiment fully haha
Oajan and angel's share definitely both smell like they have the note of apple in it and i love it
10000%!! So glad it’s not just me
When you said you blind bought Peach’s Revenge, I was like “Ooo gurl… 😬😬” and was waiting for that reaction… I also got the same medicinal syrupy impression, unfortunately.
Very overhyped
hi Emma, I’d love to have an educational video where you give us like the basics of the chemistry of perfume!!! I am sooo curious
I just did!! It’s called perfume 101!!
i LOVE the sample i tried of peach’s revenge but it’s not in my budget to get right now - hopefully soon. your research about aldehydes, lactones, and ketones was interesting though!
I love this video idea! I think it’s a little misleading to have them called blind buying my wishlist though since they’re normally all sent through PR.. in any case I enjoyed watching this!
Totally agree! I will change the thumbnail when I’m back home
ngl your reaction to Happy Dust got me…my bottle is on the way lol
Loooove happy dust so good. Also warming up to cashmere palo santo but I would choose kayali silk santal over that, which it’s compared to
mirage gourmande to me smells like a lot of cake when you first put it on, but in my opinion after it settles in and dries down a bit, it turns into such a nice vanilla! i think it's just getting over that initial overwhelming cake scent XD
I love Like This look forward to bringing it out for the fall°
i have an inspiretion of angels share that has a plum note and its just the most delicious thing ever
Ooh that sounds lovely which one is it?
I think cinnamon is hard to pull off and capture the feeling of a dessert. I notice this in baking a lot where what I THINK is a delicious cinnamon smell is really cinnamon, brown sugar, butter, nutmeg, and whatever else I’m mixing together to get like a full picture of what I might think of exclusively as cinnamon in my head
YAY!!!! LETS DO THIS!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hi Emma, I really appreciate your opinions and your descriptions of these fragrances. I’ve watched almost all of your videos. Anyway would you cover jousset parfums, I would really like to see your take on it.
I like blue Madeline, will be trying a sample of Akro Glow.
I wonder if old fashioned is doing what peat does in scotch- peaty scotch comes off as super smokey when its just really strong herbaceous wheaty and earthy notes that give off smoke all combined
Favorite fragrances for fall: Clean Reserve Sueded Oud, Ellis Brooklyn Après, Liis Bo
The Dyad packaging was so cute and makes me want to try it!
Btw I bought a 10 mL decant of Bianco Latte from a perfume store. I had tried it maybe twice in store and thought it smelled really good, but now every time I try it there’s this weird strong chemical burnt tire smell that takes a while to evaporate and it’s really unpleasant! I’m so sad 😞
Btw Clean Reserve Sueded Oud, Ellis Brooklyn Après and Liis Bo are cruelty free and vegan if someone in the comments is wondering :)
Please do your all time faves for fall❤
Maybe soon!!
Love the video! Shocked by your Blue Madeleine experience!! No cookie for me either, but the cinnamon tea for me was amazing! I don’t get the cigarettes, but I do get that in the ever-popular vanilla woods! And thank you for trying Like This!Random question - can you link your sweater?! I love the color and neckline and cuffs!
I do get a buttery, biscuit note.
Uncrime exotique smells almost just like to tobacco Vanille. My husband couldn't tell the difference. I feel like this is a great cheaper alternative.
Emma love the video and can’t wait to watch the rest! I wanted to tell you that right around 14:00, all of the aldehyde hypothesis takes got added to your video. Just wanted to let you know :)
Yes !
Yeah I get apple associations with some cinnamon notes too, especially in Angels' Share, but I'm sure they don't always list all the notes. Lol because the apple pie vibes are very obvious to me. More like deep caramelized apples with cinnamon so the fruit is not bright and dominant as to blend in discreetly with everything else. Like when food is cooked together as opposed to individual ingredients.
Omg yayyyyyyy. So excited. 🍁
