Your channel has never come up on my feed before, no matter what targeted search I've launched. How strange, no? The algorithm seems oddly unfair sometimes. Anyhow, here you finally are! I love your channel! I've watched a few of your videos this afternoon and your take on familiar things is so...fresh. Keep up the great work, I love your perspective on things and the descriptive language you use.💖

[@pixieandthenotes]

[@Joss-Fragrance-Mixology]

Thank you so much for sharing and watching my choices.

[@ChaoticCurlz]

So, ironically your number 1 fragrance from this list is one I recently stumbled upon on a fragrance app. I read the notes and was immediately intrigued. Don’t hear many people talk about it and so was delighted to see that it is your fav.☺️

[@pixieandthenotes]

It's my gem ☺

[@ildriaresvik6468]

Thank you for a great video and really interesting picks! Cinema is a wonderful fragrance, I can remember when it got released, I thought the bottle was so cool, I had never seen anything quite like it.

[@pixieandthenotes]

Yess, I love the presentation as well, it reflects the character of the scnet very well. Thank you for watching and commenting.

[@luckysmells9498]

Well jeal of the Shalimar Millesime... And of your cool shirt too, I love it!

[@pixieandthenotes]

It's so annoying that it was available (with limitations) for such a long time. It makes me really angry and I cannot understand why Gueralain do that. That is actually a dress, thank you so much :)

[@B.K.74]

Only from Ninth minute. 😊😊😊 It was pretty cool video ❤️

[@pixieandthenotes]

Thanks, I am happy to hear that you enjoyed it :)

[@JaylaneElSisi]

I’m in love with roses vanilla

[@pixieandthenotes]

Yesss, it's absolutly gorgeous and addictive!

[@yvespiderssmells9956]

Loved this Iga! Haha i lose track of my numbers too 😂.

[@pixieandthenotes]

Thank you, Yve, hahaha, I know I can't be the only one 🙈🙈

[@gertivanlier5379]

Another great video Iga! Thanks for sharing your top-10, in more ways than this video 😍. Ans wear what you love most, don't save for later! Later is now!

[@pixieandthenotes]

Thank you, Gerti! Yess, I totally agree, I think I will rock my Ivory Route today. Have a lovely day, dear!

[@gertivanlier5379]

@@pixieandthenotes I am wearing my sample of Ivory Route, inspired by your video 😄

[@pixieandthenotes]

@@gertivanlier5379 Yesss, I hope you are enjoying it.

[@lizseville1]

Thank you for sharing your 10 x

[@pixieandthenotes]

That was a pleasure, thank you for stopping by.

[@justaddlight]

Numbers 1 and 2 were a given! Sunshine Woman too. Ivory Route a goodie goodie. 😁I think I tried this exercise a number of times and more than half of them kept changing. The ones that stayed the same were always nostalgic designers from the 70s-90s. 😆 Reformed into oblivion since then unfortunately. But I CAN tell you that there was never a "blue" type freshie among them. Because trying to find one these days is like trying to find a tree in the forest. If you close your eyes, you'll eventually walk into one. 🤣Green, woody, spicy, fougere, with the odd rich amber sweetie. That about designates the categories for me.

[@pixieandthenotes]

Yeah certain perfumes are just engarved in a stone, "untouchables", but I do agree the ending 5 is usually fluctuating, mainly because of our current scent obsessions, it's pretty hard to judge whether we will feel the same after a while (said a woman with novelites on numer two and three spot, hahhahahahha). Certainly, there are type ofe perfumes that shall probably never appear in my collection let alone top 10.

[@sensesandmusings9741]

I remember liking Cinema but I haven't smelled it for years. Need to try it again. Also, need to give Champs Elysees another wear.

[@pixieandthenotes]

I am curious what your thought are after re-visiting Cinema after years. I can totally see that Champs Elysees might not be appealing to most people, but I simply cannot help but love it :)

[@AndreasVibes]

I don’t even want to think about it 😂, but just for fun: Egoïste, Menthe Fraîche, Dirty, 31 Rue Cambon, Sartorial, Another 13, Io non ho mani …, Aqua Celestia, New York Intense, and sometimes BR540.
Oh, and it’s a bad idea to save fragrances, but I do this as well. So let’s wear more of Shalimar Millesime etc. and 31 Rue Cambon (I’ve still got the EdT version that I will never be able to buy again and haven’t event dared to smell the new iteration).

[@pixieandthenotes]

Yeah, you listed quite a few scents I associate with you, that is quite evocative, isn't it? Our staples we oftten take for granted , just as old, reliable, faithful friends (sometimes they might not seem as exciting or fun as new people who facsinate us on on our life journey), but in the end they are the most valuable ones.

[@castM10039]

Hey! This is my first time here and I think your pretty cool! Thank you for this video, you are a G! Also if you like vanilla, you should try insulo by jeroboam! It’s amazing! I think you might like it!

[@pixieandthenotes]

Thank you so much! Welcome to my channel :D Thank you for the vanilla recommendation, it's always good to know more vanilla options.

[@castM10039]

@@pixieandthenotesof course! :)

[@schneewittchen7492]

I have the same thing with Ivory Route. Love it so, but wear it maybe twice a year because I am scared to make a dent into the bottle☺👍

[@pixieandthenotes]

Hahaha, welcome to the club. But this year, I have worn it already twice.

[@jatza07]

Those eyes.... I can look into them eternally

Cześć :-) Cieszę się, że do Ciebie trafiłam, bo... też kocham wanilię w bazie :-) Tez uwielbiam Dama Bianca - czuję się w niej... ciasteczkowo :-) Ten zapach z końcem roku został jednak zdetronizowany u mnie przez... Alien Essence Absolue - niesamowity, inny od pozostałych Muglerowych wypustów. Polecam! Ale z początkiem roku (kurczę, dopiero styczeń!!) pojawiła się nowa miłość: BDK Rouge smoking - ach, co to jest za wanilia :-) Znasz? :-)

[@pixieandthenotes]

Hej, miło Cię tu widzieć. Witam serdecznie. Essence Absolute nie zam, ale ciągle o nim słyszę,ale nawet nie szukam, bo jest wycofany :D Rouge Smoking znam, ale dla mnie to bomba wiśniowo-tonkowa, nie odbieram go jako zapachu waniliowego, mam dwie próbki, które o czasu do czasu noszę z dużą przyjemnością, ale nie czuję, żebym potrzebowała flaszki. Dama Bianca ma szczególne miejsce w moim sercu i chyba już tak pozostanie. Mam oddzielny filmik o moich ukochanych waniliach, jeśli masz ochotę. Troszku tego jest :D Muszę chyba nagrać uzupełnienie, bo kilka zapachów mi doszło w tzw. międzyczasie

[@reniaeste6711]

Ja słuchaj Alien Essence Absolue zamówiłam sobie odlewkę z czystej ciekawości i... przepadlam. U nas jest do znalezienia na grupach fb, olx lub vinted - w mniej lub bardziej przystępnych cenach :-) Dla mnie to ciekawe zjawisko, bo.. to jedyny Mugler, którego akceptuję 😅😅Zapisałam sobie dużo inspiracji od Ciebie i aktualnie nawet poszukuję Cinema 🤪Niestety Shalimar Millessime jest u nas totalnie nie do znalezienia, a rzeczywiście szukam już od jakiegoś czasu 😅Tak wiec - zazdro!!!

[@pixieandthenotes]

@@reniaeste6711 Wszystko moje ukochane wycofujo, dranie!!!! Ja też nie jestem Muglerowa dziewczyna

[@theaetherealist]

I was able to get down to my top 50. Choosing just ten from that? Unpossible.

[@pixieandthenotes]

Well, with all honesty, I thimk 50 would actually be my sweet , safe, comfortable spot. I dare you, Galen :D I believe you can do it!

[@ALARGADORDECU]

Oi

[@julieg_quebec-julesselivre8641]

My taste has changed so much since last year that I truly don’t know what I would keep for life anymore. But Stella by Stella McCartney has been in my collection for almost 20 years, it’s my « Cinéma scent » for sure. Gabrielle by Chanel… maybe La Vie est Belle. It’s hard! 😅

[@pixieandthenotes]

Well, i have noticed that during the last year my preferences have shifted sligtly as well.I tend to gravitate more towards a bit more luminous, fresh, crisp scents in the last few months and reach for my darker, denser perfumes less often these days. I just hope my current 10 for life choices would still be valid in years to come. But as I type it I know very well that limiting myslef to 10 is completely unrealistic, so I truly just treat this as some fun exercise :D Thank you for your comment.
