    Hey Sarah, I really like your video! It's awesome to see you still have Halston Woman Amber. I actually figured out a way to layer it with the La Rive dupe of Good Girl and it's really nice with that. I think any 'floriental' would work well. Thanks for sharing 😁

    Hey Sarah x this was such a relaxing video. Amber isn't really a note that I'm drawn to generally, but this season I've dipped my toes in. My current favourite is Kisses Rain by Renier. An Almondy Amber with Cardamom and a gourmand touch. Beautiful! I know you would love it. ❤

    Sarah, Love that you did a video showcasing amber!! It’s a favorite note of my as well. I purchased Halston Women Amber over a year ago after you talked about it. I love it!! I also have the Madonna Truth or Dare Naked and the Gap White Amber. I purchased the gap from Fragrancenet last month. They don’t have it anymore but FragranceX has it for $17.84 for 3.3oz tester. I love the gap one but haven’t opened the Madonna one yet because I bought it in the summer. As soon as it gets cold I’m going to give it a go! Thanks so much for doing this video! I am enjoying it so much ❤️🌹❤️🌷❤️

I think you`d also give a make up tutorial since your make up is stunning and many of us would love to see it and even try on ourselves. Thank you dear for the lovely recomendations

    I was going to say Boyfriend original was perhaps the only amber I own and wear in full bottles. I am so glad you like it too! In fact, I have 2 backups and was selling one on Mercari, but now I am thinking the better of it. I have decants of Ambre Narguile (I didn't do well at all with the DUA dupe as you may recall, haha) and I own a half bottle of the Madonna Naked but that's it. I need to try more ambers!

    Maxaroma had a decant sale and I picked up a bunch of things. I am wearing my new decant of MFK Grand Soir which I had a sample of and knew I liked but gosh, I am just in heaven. It’s sooo beautiful! I want a full bottle now 😩 lol. I also got a decant of L’Artisan L’Eau D’Ambre Extreme which I haven’t tried on skin yet, but I will try it soon after hearing how much you like it. I wasn’t blown away by it on paper, but it may really need to be worn on skin and I really like L’Artisan as a house. I love both the Tauer du Desert fragrances and am trying to decide which one I want a full bottle of. They are def some of my favorite ambers though. Van Cleef & Arpels Ambre Impérial is a lovely amber vanilla. Some other amber frags that I love: Hermès Elixir de Merveilles (I need to get a decant of the L’Ambre from this line bc it’s amazing), Kate Walsh Boyfriend (I have a decant of the OG!), Serge Lutens Chergui and Ambre Sultan, Givenchy Organza Indecence. I almost forgot a staple in my collection: Nemat Musk Amber fragrance oil. I LOVE it and it was so inexpensive. There are so many ambers I still need to try!

      Hi there! I would say Olympea is a safe blind but if you enjoy a salt note. It’s a sweet very vanilla heavy fragrance with some light florals in the top. It is really gorgeous, I’m just not a fan of a strong salt note so it doesn’t work for me. The intense version is everything just amped up. The scent profile reminds me a little of JPG scents but they don’t smell alike if that makes sense? I think if salt works for you and you like addict and alien it would be a love for you. 🥰❤️
