I think that some of Ariana Grande parfumes are great for beginner collection. Also Britney Spears - Fantasy line, Versace - Bright crystal and Dylan Blue pour femme, Bvlgari - Omnia Crystalline, Victoria secret - Bombshell, D&G - 3 L'imperatrice, Beyonce - Pulse and Heat line, Davidoff - Cool Water, Katy Perry's perfumes too☺️ Salvador Dali - Laguna, Pepe jeans for her, Donna Karan - Be Delicious, Escada perfumes ☺️
What a great list! Some of these I have tried and loved, and all the rest I want to try!! I watched this video and saved it last month, then today I tried a sample of Lanvin eclat d’arpege and I was blown away by how special it is! It’s gorgeous! 💐 so I had to come back and find this video again! (By the way, I’m sure you hear this all the time, but you remind me so much of Leslie Mann! Even your voice!) Thank you for such a great video 🙏🏼❤️
Hi Sarah. I enjoy your videos. I like perfumes a lot. I watch your videos on my large screen TV and cannot give you a thumbs up on that TV. But on my I-Pad I am able to use the thumbs up so I do it sometimes. I like the way you describe perfumes, and it shows how much you enjoy perfumes like I do. Take Care.
This is a nice list! I would definitely love to see a part 2. Also, I love mon guerlain. I own it. However, I just thought I would mention a cheaper alternative if anyone is interested, guess seductive Noir is very similar in scent. Not an exact dupe, but a very nice perfume, and can be picked up pretty cheap!
Hi! Thanks for reviewing Lanvin. I have been curious. I have the old original Arpege. My grandmother wore Arpege and I have always kept a bottle. I do agree with Mon Guerlain as a beginner frag- it's a great everyday dumb reach for me this time of year.
Excellent video!! I own many from the list and hands down Aquolina pink sugar is the best if you are a gourmand lover. It's an excellent performer and costs next to nothing for the quality it offers.
Oh wow, you always look sooooo pretty with makeup or without makeup, the makeup color combination that you chosen is really stunning and your video is also pleasing to me😊.
Thank you for this video! I have just purchased hugo boss, and la belle! Yay! Also I found a great green tea fragrance I like better then Elizabeth Arden, which is called funny by moschino! La rive fragrances are awesome buys as well, very affordable and dupes for more expensive perfumes.
I would recommend La Vie Est Belle (or one of it’s flankers) as a great beginner fragrance. I have a lot of fragrances and this is still my most complimented. For something a little lighter and fresher Versace Bright Crystal is a very nice choice. It’s a pretty safe, easy to wear pretty fragrance that can be found for a great price.
I wouldn't say it's safe at all! It has a very strong patchouli that puts many people off. I personally hate LVEB, it actually nauseates me, and I know plenty who feel the same. :(
Hi! I am the one who doesn't like Pink sugar. It smells of burnt sugar for me. I'm glad I didn't blind buy it, just a small decant. Lalique Le Parfum is very mature smelling. The unusual note of laurel makes it very strange and not for everyone, I think. I persanally decided that I don't want it.
I have Jean Lanvin is one of my most complimented fragrance by men. I love it. I'm on my second bottle. Also Eclat de fleur it's gorgeous and last at least 7 hours on me
Hi Sarah, very nice list for us beginners! I love Lalique Eau de Parfum, still it doesn't last long but I don't care. Mon Guerlain is nothing special in my opinion although I 've heard so much about it. It lasts only for 2-3 hours on me leaving a sweet dry down that's so nice but so weak. Yes, please make a part 2 beginner's video. Looking forward to it as soon as possible. Nice and interesting video🎥! Thanks for sharing!
Always rewatch your videos just to get my fix😂 I adore your videos and watch every new upload... Loving your perfume collection series, waiting for part 5!😁❤
Hi Sarah ! These were very nice suggestions ! 😊 When I started to collect and buy perfumes, MAJORITY were blind buys.. I am lucky though that I loved them.. maybe on some use I realize they are not the longest lasting, but scent-wise they’re okay.. i blind bought Casablanca.. it is so beautiful ! 💛
Ha! Lanvin Jeanne, ive had that for years. Its got a comeback to it once youve worn it for a few hours; it reappears. I have gucci 2 (pinky cube bottle right?) I think gucci more light and woody, and vanishes quick. Jeannie sorta has a make up vibe also..
Nice video another idea if you don’t know where to start and you don’t want to break the bank look for travel sets I bought a pack of six Clean Reserve fragrances 5ml size and it really gave me an opportunity to try and see what I do and don’t like Sephora has a good selection of all different brands especially around the holidays and You can experiment with different notes it’s really helpful when you are just starting out there are so many fragrances out there it can overwhelming
You are so right, it smells better than Gucci ii on me and it lasts way longer on me. It also looks like it! I almost bought an old new bottle of Gucci ii but not anymore!!!
The body shop cherry blossom and strawberry is a nice dupe (semi dupe) for all the berry+rosey type combos out there, at 1/4 of the price. Never could stand the womens version of white musk though. Their british rose is not bad, i layer the coconut, vanilla, .. and i have a couple more in the tall ish glass body spray bottles
I was at The Body Shop in Chicago looking for White Musk Perfume Oil and I saw the Smoky Rose Perfume Oil too. I should’ve picked it up. I think it’s discontinued and worth a lot of money.
Hi Sarah! Another great video, thanks! Question on the Zara Rich Warm Addictive: Is this at all similar to Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille or Spirtuese Double Vanille? I have been looking for something along those lines without the pricetag. Thanks!
Hi there!! It’s definitely not comparable to either of those IMHO but it is a slightly sweet, warm, cozy fragrance. For the price I think it’s worth trying out. 😍
I love watching every video you’ve done. How about a next video recommending for intermediate perfume collectors? These are great affordable ones, but maybe perfumes that might be a bit of an investment? I’m nowhere near touching niche perfumes I don’t think I ever will but I think a lot of us regular girls would love some gems that cost a bit more but are statement perfumes.
Hi there!! I don’t think it’s safe, IMHO. It’s got that pencil shaving note in it that some people like and some people hate. If you know you like that note it may be safe for you. I hope that helps! ❤️
I got mine from Fragrancenet use the 35% off promo code from offers.com for fragrancenet.com...buy it its beautiful if you don't want it I will take it...I can't smell that note...and its not expensive..
So helpful! I recently blindly bought Lancome's "La vie est belle" because I know it's pretty popular. I haven't smelt it yet and it was a bit pricey, but I'm curious if you've ever smelt it and/or recommend it.
I see Cabotine in the background..... what ya think? I love it but I can see how many don’t love it! Smells like Tender Poison too! Loved that one too! Sad it’s gone:(
Hey sarah! 😊, Have you tried the new pink sugar berry blast and creamy sunshine yet? I have black sugar and its like pink sugar but with tons of oud, leather and liquourice its divine in cold weather...what would you say is the best green tea flanker? There are so many i like the sound of especially the fig one and yuzu one but cant decide!
I haven’t tried those new ones from Aquolina yet but I want to! I really love the green tea lavender and it’s probably my most used. I have been wanting the fig one too. ❤️😍
@@SarahMayes thank you sarah! Im in Edinburgh at the moment and i have brought zara rich warm addictive with me and it is perfect for the cold autumnal scottish weather.
Ugh I’m def picking up Jeanne Lanvin as I used to love Gucci II and cannot find it anywhere these days 😩 I find mon Guerlain to be too strong though, I know a lot of people love it but I’m possibly a minority that just isn’t into beast mode fragrances.. would you say that I probably wouldn’t like JPG labelle if that were the case? I love all the notes you mentioned but I know JPG fragrances can be loud and out there.. thanks Sarah again and again, I’ve had a few hits now from your recommendations! :)
Hi there!! La Belle is probably the least loud JPG fragrance I have smelled. It’s really mild and beautiful. I think it’s a safe blind buy and if you just use a couple of sprays it would be really soft. ❤️
hey have you had the chance to sample Oud Jaune Intense, Oud Orange Intense, Oud Rose Intense and Santal Complet? Would love to hear your thoughts and possible a video on the brand and those scents!
Could you please do a video on best affordable fragrances that are unique for the intermediate perfume lover? Or one with most affordable best chypre or oud scents?
These Perfumes were all beginners friendly. I bet this list was Soo easy for you to put together lol 😃 l would love to try Zara rich warm addictive.yes please do a part 2. Be well and safe 🙏🏽
Have you bought the new Valentino Lady Gaga Voce Vita perfume???? It is in a beautiful red gold bottle with the gold rock studs..typical Valentino style bottle... a gardenia vanilla I got a small bottle from Dillards 15% off today and tomorrow...I have well over 150 perfumes... so I just want to smell it....
I like all your choices except from Rich Warm Addictive from Zara. I know I am in minority after all this hype I seem to be one of very few people who find it to be a boring underwhelming, generic and overly sweet scent...Great video:)
Hello Sarah, nice to follow your videos.I want to ask about the color of casablanca parfume, it seems to be a dark yellow. I also have bought one bottle from my country and the juice is not so coloured, is a light yellow. It also do not last a lot and I am wandering if it could be a fake. The scent is beautiful , I like it.
Hi there! I don’t think it’s fake but I do believe they reformulated it and that is what you have. After the initial hype when I got mine people who were buying it started noticing the lighter juice so I think sadly they reformulated. ❤️🥰
I have many only for the beautiful bottles & to display but the lasting power sucks considering what they cost.keep your coins !! They are not worth it IMO.
I really enjoy that you include all different types and NOT the popular at the moment fragrances. Thank you!
💘💘💘
Yes part 2 please!

I dont like pink sugar either. Exactly, it smells like burnt sugar.
Nice vídeo for beginners to start a colletion ,love Mon Guerlain and Jean Paul Gaultier Belle,and of Course do part 2 Sarah.
I have Jean Lanvin is one of my most complimented fragrance by men. I love it. I'm on my second bottle. Also Eclat de fleur it's gorgeous and last at least 7 hours on me
Great choices for beginner perfumes. I started up with 4 of them. I was into Elizabeth Arden back then - and Lancôme too.
What a great video idea! Thank you for sharing!!!

Hi Paola! Casablanca is so good. So long lasting too. ❤️
Hi Sarah.I have purchased 4 scents from your list for my wife.You have given me a couple more to check out.Thanks for the video.
I am so glad they have been helpful! ☺️
Ha! Lanvin Jeanne, ive had that for years. Its got a comeback to it once youve worn it for a few hours; it reappears.
I have gucci 2 (pinky cube bottle right?) I think gucci more light and woody, and vanishes quick. Jeannie sorta has a make up vibe also..
I agree! Similar vibe though. I like Jeanne so much better than Gucci II. 🥰
I’d love to see part 2!!!❤️❤️❤️
lovely choices. MG is my signature scent from the designer world
It’s such a good one! ❤️😍
Love this! Please do a part 2

Really enjoyed this I actualy am going to get a couple as they sound really lovely and very reasonably priced x
Yes for part 2
lanvin is excellent. my fav is the lilac one.. body shop oriental orchid is my fav...
They are so good! ❤️
Great video!! I love Lanvin 😍
The body shop cherry blossom and strawberry is a nice dupe (semi dupe) for all the berry+rosey type combos out there, at 1/4 of the price.
Never could stand the womens version of white musk though.
Their british rose is not bad, i layer the coconut, vanilla, .. and i have a couple more in the tall ish glass body spray bottles

Have you tried Elizabeth Arden White Tea Vanilla Orchid? I am curious to know your opinion on it.
I haven’t tried that one yet but I have it on my list to pick up. 😍
I have tried white tea. Its fresh and smells very nice but it last for like 3 hours maximum on my skin. It's a good one though
@@suziscoresuziscore748 same on my skin. Nice, but doesn't last

Definitely need a part two! Do you think Lancôme’s Tresor a la folie is a safe blind buy?
Hi there!! I don’t think it’s safe, IMHO. It’s got that pencil shaving note in it that some people like and some people hate. If you know you like that note it may be safe for you. I hope that helps! ❤️

Pink Sugar smells great with Coconut Lime in the heat. 🥥
Helpful video for beginners !!!
I see Cabotine in the background..... what ya think? I love it but I can see how many don’t love it! Smells like Tender Poison too! Loved that one too! Sad it’s gone:(

Hay Sarah I snagged a tollete called tahari chiffon fresh. It’s pretty good if one likes lemon ,with a lotion, and bath gel.

Yes!! It’s such a great scent!
Goede morgen xxxx love your perfums

Do you have any, Ana Sui ?
Hi Gloria! I don’t. I have tested a bunch of them and they have all been horrible performance wise so I don’t buy them. ❤️
I have many only for the beautiful bottles & to display but the lasting power sucks considering what they cost.keep your coins !! They are not worth it IMO.
Part 2
Mon Guerlain, you have to like lavender in perfume. And, some of us dont, like me. 😖
...lanvin Me, thats to me smells like tobacco ashy oh my gosh, nothing like the notes imply. What do you think of arpege in the black bottle...
Amazingly I have never smelled the original Arpege! I will have to pick it up soon. It’s on my list. 💞
Hi Sarah, this is not perfume related but makeupy ...what mascara are u wearing today? :D
Hi Marcela! It’s a combination of essence lash princess (the green one) and L’Oreal Voluminous in Carbon Black. 😍
Oh yeah and it was $20:00 lasted around 4 hours.
