I was going crazy with blindbuys during the pandemic. My cravings for comforting scents was clearly out of hand. Too many I didn't end up liking that much. I have since changed my mindset to only buy fragrances I think I will luv and that fill a need/purpose in my collection, not hyped up FOMO fragrances. It's time to enjoy what I have. So, in 2022 I only bought 9 fragrances. 2023 only 6. In 2024, no more than 4 is the goal. Since I changed my mindset, I have luved every fragrance I have bought. My collection is now close to perfect for my needs.
180 bottles is a lot of perfume-- However, over 6 years its only 2.5 bottles a month! I think of it this way. . . I'm not wasting money. I'm creating joy, I'm living in the now AND I'm creating memories. You can't put a price on any of that. 😂
@@sanneparf I was going to say the same.. 6 years-- that's a good number! For me I've been more intentional & get rid of perfumes that I no longer reach for often. Would love to see a video with your biggest dents 🙃
@@CPS0613 Hi ❤️ This year I will declutter at least 20 bottles, it's time.. I actually have a video & also yt #shorts about the biggest dents of 2023 My fragrance goal for 2024 is to buy less, declutter more & to sample as much as possible before committing to a full size bottle + get a travel size when possible 😉 we'll see how it goes 😍
Totally enjoyed this video. I think I overcompensate as well but I work hard for my money and I know when to slow down. I won’t say how many bottles I have because it doesn’t really matter. And between this hobby and gardening that’s pretty much all I put extra money into. On the lighter side, walking through a beautiful garden, wearing a beautiful scent, experiencing something that gives me a sense of peace and connection to nature or others is well worth what I pay for it or what I do to get there. Thank you for your time. Your calm way of speaking and kindness come through your videos and I always smile and feel peaceful watching them…….as well as ready to try a new fragrance! 😁 Glad you have this hobby and a supportive partner😊🌞🌸
Thank you so much for your comment... ❤️❤️🫂 I'm dreaming of having my own garden... Being in nature barefoot is my happy place. I'm a minimalist - my fragrance collection is the only exception, I totally overcompensated 🙈 I actually made an agreement with myself, that if I want to keep this collection, I need to share it with others via UA-cam. That's how this channel was actually born 😅
I think that is wonderful. It gives you joy to have this hobby, and sharing this hobby gives other joy. It certainly gives me joy, and I trust your opinion. Something else I think is awesome is when I was growing up and even in my early 20s I never thought that I could speak to someone halfway around the world like this, sharing something that we enjoy. Thank you again and I hope you’re having a wonderful start to the week. I look forward to your next video.😊🌸🌞
Hi, Sanne ! That comment from your husband about old rich lady made me smile as I've got the same one from mine wearing Bottega Veneta Knot Absolu ))) I didn't mind this comment cause that scent actually has quiet luxury vibe that I love so much. And Bottega Veneta's perfumes from the main line is all about that. I own almost all their scents in my small collection that is not more than 40 bottles)
Enjoyed your video 🤗❣️ I agree, growing up not being able to buy what I want does have an impact on my spending habits 🤷🏻♀️ I’m blessed to be able to buy more than I need ❣️ this is a fun addition. My blind buy spend has definitely slowed down last year and this year as well. 😂
Just subscribed👍I'm a Sagittarius too and my husband is supportive of my hobby, which only started about 1 year ago. My cheapest is Jessica Simpson Fancy & most expensive is Guerlain Gourmand Coquin. Thank you for sharing your hobby.
You're so lucky to have friends who support your hobby! Mines, they just think I'm crazy!😂 I have to forced them to listen to me a little about my collection. They're being nice and listen sometimes😅 I have a question for you: do you have a spreadsheet for your perfumes? Do you keep track of what, when. And how much you pay? Do you have insurance for them? I just have about 35 bottles, but I'm wondering if it would be a good idea!! Anyway, it's always nice to ear you about perfumes! Thank you for sharing!!!!❤❤
@@virgi28 I have only a few people I could call my friends, family members included, so yes, they are also more or less into fragrances.. My family actually suggested to open this channel for sharing my obsession with scents 😁😅 I keep a track on fragrantica, my profile name is ScentedPlaza just in case. I usually buy my fragrances from the official retailers, some are gifted & some I buy second hand. No insurance. Hope I answered your questions 🙏😇
Thank you for your support ❤❤ Please, consider yourself tagged if you're feeling inspired to also film this tag video. This time I totally forgot to tag other creators 🙈😅
Thank you for watching 🙏 My boyfriend said I smelled like "an old rich lady", when I was wearing Amarige. My mothers "you smell like an old house" comment was about Marquise De Sade by Histoires de Parfums 😆 I love Amarige, it's classy & fierce 😍😍😍 Have a great day!
Hey Sanne! Another awesome video! OMG I can only spray 1 spray for Oud of Greatness. As for Guidance, I used sample ( I believe it’s 2 ml) up in just one day 😁
Thank you so much 😘!!! I can't do more than 2 sprays of Guidance 😂 I feel the juice is getting even stronger as time goes by. My 50ml size bottle will last me for a lifetime 😅
@@sanneparf I feel a lot of my fragrances got stronger over time. You really had me very interested in trying Guidance again. Maybe I will tell you one day I finally get a bottle in my collection lol. Kind of like Chanel no 5, I hated it at first. The more I smelled it, the more I started to understand and appreciate this beauty. Now I cannot go without this it ❤️
P.S. I encourage you in starting a garden. It can take a long time to learn the ins and outs unless of course you’re just a natural with a green thumb. In this crazy world, it is absolutely my happiest place to be whether it’s my garden or someone else’s.😊🌸💖🌞
It's on my wishboard 😍🌱so sooner or later this wish will come true🤞 We are living in crazy times, that's true, peace & calm feels like a luxury... 🕊️ #insomnia
It’s difficult to express the vision for our collection in 20 years. I hope it will be under 60, like my age 😂 And I hope too that movie “Don’t look up” does not become reality 😆 Some days I feel I am in “Everything Everywhere All at Once”
Hi Georgia ❤❤ "Don't look up" gave me anxiety 😅 + the fact that there's actually a meteorite, moving towards our planet, is unsettling. I will probably have a collection of 50 fragrances in my 50's 😂
Hi Sanne 💕 Omg I love your sweater! Definitely don't want to overspray oud for greatness! 😂Loved this tag, it was so fun. Loved your answers and hearing your stories. I can totally relate to growing up not having extras or being able to get a lot of the things I want. I definitely overcompensate now too. Nothing wrong with that haha. I hope you have an amazing day ❣
Hi Sanne!!! I know it's crazy right to have 200 fragrances is 🤯 but at least it's a healthy addiction!! 😆 I'm getting into the 220 mark and I'm not stopping, just decelerating and getting more selective, trying to avoid redundancy but I don't want to think where my collection will be in 20 years if I'm still in this blue rock 😬 My cheapest: fragrance Aqua di Selva, my most expensive: Stephane Humbert Lucas Mamba I paid retail. Worst comment: You smell like a grandpa... peasants 😒🤣 I was wearing Jacomo de Jacomo, 80's Powerhouse, gorgeous scent. I'm also not an over sprayer. Backups? for some. Yes I'm a typical sagitarius, I'm a free spirit cannot be contained, maybe that's why my relationships doesn't last... 🤔😆 1740 makes me really nervous, sex in a bottle!! I really enjoyed the video thank you Sanne!!!
P.s. I'm still on a lookout for 777 Mamba, as it's sold out & no ones selling even a partly used bottle over here. Well.. I guess I need to start visualising that bottle on my vanity 😃
I've worn my signature scent since it came out in 1981...and it's been long discontinued...but I've managed to keep a small little stash. My daughter tried to encourage me in June to explore more fragrances...but I waited until late October to go down that rabbithole. I learned everything I could about fragrance/parfums...and placed my first order on Black Friday. Then, my 11 year old granddaughter asked for perfumes for Christmas. One thing led to another, we had a fragrance Christmas, which was great...and I now am up to 90 fragrances in my collection. About 75 are full bottles...and the rest are decants of 10 ml or more. I count decants that are 10 ml as a full bottle...especially when I'm unsure of a fragrance. That way I can generously test it out to know if I need a full bottle...because I don't want to have full bottles of fragrances I won't wear. And speaking of...I ordered a tester of Amarige, liked it, so I ordered a full bottle. It's a Dominique Ropion fragrance, and he's my favorite "nose"/fragrance designer!!!

Hello gorgeous Sanne! I used to wear Amarige years ago and it brings so many memories. I am debating about bringing it back into my collection
Hi Lala ❤❤ Amarige is very special.. there's something calming, yet powerful & reassuring in it.
Hi there lovely Sanne, looking beautiful as always! Love this tag, so much fun. Smelling like an old rich lady is perfect😍
Right? 😍 I will choose to smell like "an old rich lady" over "basic b****" any day 😆😃
Jokes aside, I'm wishing you a lovely Sunday 🥰
