Hey guys! So today I thought it would be fun to share with you my entire perfume history - that is, all of my signature scents and perfumes I have ever worn starting back when I first took an interest in perfumes. So, however embarrasing some of them may be, and however much they may date me haha - here they are! :). What was the FIRST PERFUME you ever wore??? I'm wondering how many share the same as me haha :)
I can remember my first perfume: Love’s Baby Soft. I got it for Christmas in a Caboodle circa 1989 💕💕💕 Exclamation was my second one and I can remember exactly how they smelled and it takes me back to middle school. And yes I definitely rocked CK One my Freshman year in High School. Thanks for the trip down memory lane ❤️
Dear Lord!! This video took me waaay back!! I remember my first love was Beverly Hills 90210. At the time I had no idea what “notes” meant and now I am surprised I actually loved that note profile so much!!
I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this video.....it should be a tag! I went from 0-100 with my perfume addiction. I believe I would spritz a couple sprays of Chloe from my mom’s collection from time to time until I started my own collection just before 2020 & now I have about 70-80.
Such a cute and nostalgic video! 🥰 I got my first perfumes from my grandma because she was traveling a lot and she was always bringing me initially Versace red jeans perfume when I was 8-10 and then moschino L’eau cheap and chic. Then i started choosing my own perfumes and i remember having CK Obsession night, Lacoste pour femme, Versace crystal noir, Burberry brit, Escada magnetism, The summer versions of Escada, Naomi Campbell perfume, Burberry the beat for many years, Cacharel amor amor and Dior hypnotic poison. From then on (26 and after) i started growing my collection and during quarantine i grew it to 30 perfumes 🙈 Thank you so much for this video 🥰
I grew up in a small town with no access to brand perfumes so the only perfumes we had were dupes of designer ones. I remember a bottle that really resembled J'adore and one that I used to wear every day, only years later I found out it was dupe for Cacharel Amor Amor. The first one I had was a gift by my aunt, it was Avon Island vibe or something like that. Then for years I didn't have much money to spend on perfumes so I remember using Avon Urban flowers Tokyo, Bi-Es La Mamba, C-THRU the green bottle. The first 'real' perfume I got was a gift from my ex boyfriend, he got me a limited edition of YSL Cinema, and that fragrance became my signature for many years. I used to have a hard time really liking fragrances and that's the reason my collection is still quite small and I often get rid of the ones I don't use.
My first ever perfume was Tommy Girl! My mom had bought me a bottle for Christmas when I was 15, and I was ecstatic, because all the popular, sporty girls wore that scent in high school (this was mid to late 2000's). I remember feeling really grown up, because I finally had a perfume of my own.
Hi, Ilythia! What a nice concept of a video! I remember seeing an advert for Burberry Brit campaign in a fashion magazine when a child. And I said to myself once I grow up there will be a day when I get my hands on one of Burberry's perfumes. The day came and my first perfume was actually Burberry Brit Sheer - that was love at first sniff. I still keep that bottle in my collection))
This is such an endearing video. ❤️ My aunt had CK Obsession and I remember sneaking some sprays... I’m not even sure if I’d enjoy it so much today haha. I just thought it was so special at the time. My mom’s signature scent when I was a kid was Estée Lauder’s Pleasures, and every time I smell that perfume I immediately think of her. I also have some fragrances from my teenage years that I would probably avoid now because they are linked with less than pleasant memories lol. This is a testament to how much our sense of smell is intrinsically linked to our memories and different experiences. So neat!
I received a Jean Naté cologne for Christmas when I was 6 or 7. I don’t remember loving it, but it started my fragrance journey. I’d get lord of perfume from my parents over the years because my mom would get me the Christmas makeup sets for my birthday and they all required a $70 purchase of fragrance. I did Elizabeth Arden Sunflowers and Green Tea for years. Then I moved to Clinique Happy in college. For the next 10 years or so, I wore whatever was given to me. I feel like I discovered finding my own scents in my 30s.
This was so precious 💖 The first perfume I took an interest in was Angel when I was about 22. Another UA-camr named KillerColours loved Angel and all its flankers and she got me hooked. I bought the drugstore imitation of it for about $10 and loved it. Never bought the real thing and don’t think I ever will since I’m closer to being an Alien girl now.
So fun to think back! My fragrance journey is all over the place. I avoided perfume entirely while growing up because I was very sensitive to smells and my mom didn't really wear it. Walking into a Bath & Body Works was overwhelming but I remember liking Cucumber Melon. After college I got into Victoria's Secret scents (Noir, Tease, Very Sexy Now, Cashmere). My first "grownup" perfume in my early 20s was Coach Poppy, which is way too sweet to me now. Next was Dior J'Adore for late 20s / early 30s. Then a couple years ago I finally sprung for Guerlain's L'Heure Bleue, which I'd only ever read about. I love it but don't wear it often. That was it until late in the pandemic, and then a switch flipped. I "discovered" perfume videos on UA-cam and built my collection to about 20 over the last 3-4 months. I decided well, if I can't travel to a tropical beach or an English rose garden, I can at least smell like it. It's been such a fun escape! I have a few more on my list but I do think I'll slow down and stay around 20-25.
I’ve been wearing Miami Glow since 2005 and just ordered my 5 bottle lol. Amazon has it for only $27.00 a bottle. A very nostalgic scent for me and my daughters.
Apparently Miami Glow smells very similar to Fragrance du Bois Oud Orange Intense (which smells amazing and is $750 usd for 100 ml lolll) AND Miami Glow and Oud Orange Intense were both formulated by the same perfumer!
My ever first designer perfume was Givenchy Dahlia Divine 30ml and I still have the bottle! And then came Baiser Volé, Eros, dior homme, black opium, miss dior and BOOM! 25 perfumes and growing. Amazing video 💕
Your voice is so soothing! My first fav perfume is the Givenchy Play. My collection have grown since. But that perfume still hold a place in my heart. ☺
I see FragranceNet.com still has Miami Glow for $26! Fun video thanks! I am getting a little collection going and still struggle with what perfumes to wear when, would love a video on how to help people with that!
Such a fun video!!! For me it was the Skin So Soft bath oil from Avon and Love's Baby Soft, followed by a dupe of Obsession. Such great memories! Especially the bath oil, made me feel so special because it was my mom's and it was only for very special occasions.
When I was younger I loved Beautiful by Ester Lauder and White Diamonds. Perry Ellis 360 was another one and then a couple of Victoria Secret like Bombshell and Very Sexy.
Ohhhh my gosh I forgot about Exclamation!!! I thought I was so cool by owning that bottle haha. Definitely rocked Love Spell or Vanilla Lace by Victoria Secret too 🤣
My first perfume came with a Barbie that I got for Christmas, I must have been 7 or 8. It was a teeny, tiny bottle and I loved it! I remember my mom wearing Exclamation and sneaking some sprays every now and then. When I was in 7th or 8th grade, I was OBSESSED with Vanilla Fields, I begged my best friend to get it for me for Christmas. Then BBW craze happened, Sweet Pea! I think it would make me nauseous now. I just started getting back into perfumes since the pandemic. My collection has quickly ballooned from 1 bottle of Chance Eau Tendre and a couple of rollerballs to about 10 bottles (not counting the ones I gave to my daughter!)
I just realized we’re the same age 🙂 I actually reminisced last week about the perfumes I used to wear when I was younger. Interesting to see where it all started, isn’t it?
I owned Fancy, also! But way back when I was fourteen I wore Love’s Musky Jasmine Flower. That one is long gone. When I was sixteen I wore Je Revien, which looking back, was way too mature and sophisticated for a high school student. I remember Anais Anais, Calvin Klein Eternity, Obsession, CK One, Escape, Jovan Musk, of course all the Ralph Lauren fragrances, too many to mention. Now, thanks to you tube I have become fragrance obsessed and have purchased many high end brands. I love luxury but this is quite an expensive hobby. Forgot to mention that I wore K d’Krizia when I was in my early twenties.
You can still get your hands on Miami Glow on discounters websites and i saw it last week here in my city at Shoppers Drug Mart. I was very surprised because i have never seen it at Shoppers before.
I remember my mom wearing Giorgio, and Givenchy Amarige I would sneakily use her bottle. Lol I think Aspen for Woman was my first perfume in high school followed by VS Heavenly, BBW Pearberry, Juniper Breeze, and Escada. I too miss the innocents of perfumes. 👍
The first perfume I remember is a celebrity fragrance by Debbie Gibson called Electric Youth. This is dating me (I'm 42), but I remember at about 10 years old loving that. There was also Giorgio by Giorgio Beverly Hills and Jovan White Musk. I also remember Guess perfume, a dark amber-colored juice in a tall, twisted triangular bottle (in the early 90s). That one was a beast! In the mid 90s I wore Sunflowers, CKOne, Eternity, GAP Heaven, Clinique Happy, and in the early 2000s Ralph Lauren Blue and Elizabeth Arden's Pleasures. Mid 2000s I discovered Burberry Weekend, Euphoria (still my fav), Victoria Secret Very Sexy (the spicy oriental one), and Coco Mademoiselle. I had my children in 2010-2016, and I didn't really wear perfume due to always having a baby on me, but when I wore perfume, i chose Amazing Grace by Philosophy. In 2018 I began to build my collection again with some Victoria Secret perfumes: Eau So Sexy and Bombshell. And then I got into Tom Ford perfumes: Black Orchid, Noir, Tobacco Vanille. My favs are still fresh, clean soapy smells (like Jo Malone and Philosophy brands) and darker, spicy, musky, and powdery perfumes.
Loved this! 💕 Preteen and teen years were filled with Loves Baby Soft and Jovan Musk. Then the random perfume I got as gifts like Anais Anais. Loved the original formulation of Obsession, and CK One too!
When I was little I remember my mom having Opium and L'air du temps. I loved both of those scents when she wore them. Very 80's.😍 You can still get Miami Glow. I just got one a month ago off of FragranceNet.
One of my earliest perfume memories are Mini sexy, Mini pink etc perfumes by UdV. Also, I remember, sometimes in elementary school, my mum gave away to me her Hugo Boss Deep red perfume, I was in love with it. Then I bought it couple of years ago and realised that my taste has changed so much so I ended up giving it away.
I just posted about obsession on Insta 😂 I have a teeny tiny 15ml bottle... I loooove Hot Couture and Fancy ! I am still an infant when it comes to perfumes... 😂 But when it comes to my mom’s perfumes, it’s another story...
First perfume I don‘t really remember. I was allowed to use my Mums perfumes which was Eternity by Calvin Klein and Happy by Clinique. That was around 1997 (I was 16 yrs old). I also owned and loved Miami Glow 💗
Such an interesting video!! Truly enjoyed every second of it!!! I remember smelling my moms anais anais from cacharel, hot couture and white diamonds from Elizabeth Taylor. I believe my first fragrance was either cool water or amour amour by cacharel 😄
I think my first teen-years perfume was Paris by Paris Hilton. 😂 I found it in a T.J. Maxx recently, and with one spray, a bunch of memories came flooding back.
@@veenependa3796 yey! I took a semester there where i worked in a kindergarden in Otjiwarango (2008). So its a long time ago. Where are u from? We got friends who took us to swakopmund and walwis bay also. But had a lot of fun in otji!
@@shockbbyb9464 Wao Wao I am working in Otjiwarongo, originally from Omaruru but have been living in Otji. What a coincidence. You should come back and visit. Otjiwarongo is fine. We had severe drought for the past 10 years, last year and this year is much better and we are celebrating the rain. Greetings from Otji.
I started with perfumes like Pret A Porter and Chanson D’Eau :)) Then escalated to Adidas Fitness Fresh. I also used Perceive and Pur Blanca from Avon for a short while. And then I discovered designer perfumes, in my last 2 years of highschool I used D&G Red and Hypnotic Poison (same as you, I used to wear these in the most inappropriate places and times, like daytime or school or summertime :D). Then I had D&G Light Blue as a signature scent for many years, until a relationship ruined that for me forever :( It’s funny how scents affect us for the rest of our lives. After that, I kept searching for another signature scent for years and years, trying all sorts of designer perfumes, until this year, when I realized that I will probably never find just ONE fragrance to wear anytime, anyplace and I don’t even think that’s normal to be honest :) Like, how can you wear the same perfume when you’re running errands and on a night out?
My signature scent was Exclamation back in the late 80s. I smelled it at a store last week and it just didn’t smell the same. I was hoping it would evoke the past.
Debbie Gibson Electric Youth was my first perfume. When Ici by Coty came out, it smells very similar, and that was my signature scent until it discontinued. Trying to find my next signature scent is what sparked my perfume obsession.
They actually brought back miami glow and i was able to get my hands on it. Tho i think they only produced a little? So it’s still kinda limited. It’s getting a log of love tho im not sure if they reformulated it cuz i dont have anything to reference with. Mines manufactured on Nov 2020
I wore the crap out of sunflowers and Clinique Happy. I can't even smell them now, my taste has completely changed. Eternity was very popular too, I loved it but never had it for some reason. It was probably the price at the time. Thanks for this trip down memory lane.
The only perfume i remember really looking and wearing a lot when i was 17 was j lo glow as well 😄😄😄 i was looking for a bottle the other day but it is dicontinued there is only a newer Version but i did not like it... and i remember also one from Naomie cambell which i wore... Nice Video! 🥰🥰🥰
My first real signature scent was Vera Wang Princess followed years later by Bath & Body Works Cashmere Glow. That was before I started collecting perfumes.
CK One! That was my first “grown up” fragrance and my brother bought it for me. Such a 90’s perfume, clean and fresh, way too cool for me at the time. 😆 Luckily, I had a cool brother. 😎
My first designer perfume was Daisy eau so fresh by Marc Jacobs. I loved it so much. Before that I owned the purple perfume by Katy Perry which smelled weird to my nose so I never wore it but I loved the cute bottle.
MY FIRSTwas Coco I think . Maybe Cristalle (Channel) very green!I remember Jungle Gardenia ,,Royal Secret ,. I too had friends that I borrowed scents. I honestly can't remember.Been a big part of my life almost as long as I can remember ... forever sweet memories on this journey
Back in the days when i was a teenager i had some nice perfumes: Light blue, Nina, Ricci Ricci, Black Xs, vanille bourbon and framboise from yves rocher I liked my perfumes fresh fruity and sweet anything complicated 🤭 Then when i was in my early 20s i had Flowerbomb, Absolutely irresistibe, Lady million and La vie est belle, my taste has changed a lot from a teenager to a young women, but i only had one bottle that i finished before buying a new one Now i have so many perfumes i love every perfume out there, my obssession is reaaaaaaal
I had a perfume named elan that was discontinued - then I went to Lauren for years but they changed the formula :( Then black opium and just recently I’m exploring new fragrances - I am trying samples and blind buys I have fallen in love with Muegler Aura Sensual We shall see what else !!
I miss Gucci II so bad!!! It was my signature fragrance. There is NOTHING on the market that even smells similar to me. I have searched everywhere and I am still on the search for a new fav.
I believe my first perfume was curious by Brittany spears and pink Friday by nicki minaj which my mom had bought for me. After that I never purchased perfumes and I stuck to solely body mists from bath and body works until quarantine! I created a perfume obsession. I have maybe about 26+ perfumes now? 😅😅
Omg, I used to wear that CK one too back then when I was 13th (2006) it was my brother’s, and then SJP lovely and Etienne Aigner Starlight when I was in highschool, because they were so popular back then. After that, I used to wear Bvlgari Omnia Amethyste when I was a college student, and then Chloe Edp. Now, I’m still exploring and trying to find the perfect perfume for me 😂
I wore Versace Bright crystal in high school and i believe in 7th and 8th grade of elementary schoool. Before that I remember malizia bon bons and honestly barbie perfume and that is all. On college i had armani diamonds, d&g light blue, ysl elle (it was a gift i gave it to my mum), escada taj sunset sparked my interest in fragrance. After that when i was about 21/22 i had chloe (signature), escada cherry blossom, britney midnight fantasy, katy perry meow and body shop white musk. Then i got also escada agua del sol, fiesta carioca and then i met olympea. I fell hard for olympea-it was first more expensive perfume i bought immediatley, and since then (about 2015) i went throught 7 bottles of olympea and one bottle of olympea legend. After that i started growing my collection. ❤️❤️❤️
I had been gifted old left over perfumes as a child to play with, mostly Avon of drug or store brands but the first perfume I bought for myself because of what all the girls were wearing at junior high school and what it smelled like was Love’s Babysoft .. I bought some as an adult for nostalgia purposes but it doesn’t seem to be the same recipe and is not the same bottle
I have like 2 bottles of jlo miami glow ! Lol.... I got it just a few days ago on fragrancex....my 1st perfume I wore was I think britney spears fantasy, pink bottle. I was like 19 or 20 though I'm late in the perfume world!!

Same! 💕
Your intros are everything, it feels like i am being welcomed on board a flight :)

Thank you so much for this video 🥰
Im 35 and CK one is so nostalgic for me! I use to love midnight fantasy, Amour Amor, Tommy girl, love spell, and BBW pearberry ❤🤗
I was 16 in 1996 and yes all of those perfumes were very popular at that time!! Such a throw back love this video!!
Also, the very first perfume I ever wore was either exclamation or Incognito! Lol
I grew up in a small town with no access to brand perfumes so the only perfumes we had were dupes of designer ones. I remember a bottle that really resembled J'adore and one that I used to wear every day, only years later I found out it was dupe for Cacharel Amor Amor.

I used to have a hard time really liking fragrances and that's the reason my collection is still quite small and I often get rid of the ones I don't use.
I just bought two bottles of Miami Glow off fragrancenet last week. I think it’s being restocked everywhere now.
My first ever perfume was Tommy Girl! My mom had bought me a bottle for Christmas when I was 15, and I was ecstatic, because all the popular, sporty girls wore that scent in high school (this was mid to late 2000's). I remember feeling really grown up, because I finally had a perfume of my own.
That was Rosie Huntington-Whitley’s first perfume too! She said it in a video
My fav perfume that grandmother use to use (she raised me) was Dior Poison..OMG I still love it to this day such a beautiful smelling perfume!
“the monstrosity of perfumes”😅 I felt that
😂
Hi, Ilythia! What a nice concept of a video! I remember seeing an advert for Burberry Brit campaign in a fashion magazine when a child. And I said to myself once I grow up there will be a day when I get my hands on one of Burberry's perfumes. The day came and my first perfume was actually Burberry Brit Sheer - that was love at first sniff. I still keep that bottle in my collection))
This is such an endearing video. ❤️ My aunt had CK Obsession and I remember sneaking some sprays... I’m not even sure if I’d enjoy it so much today haha. I just thought it was so special at the time.

I feel like I discovered finding my own scents in my 30s.
I was a child of the 60s and 70s and Jean Nate is to me the smell of the 70s. I still lobe the smell of it for its memory but I dont wear it.
This was so precious 💖 The first perfume I took an interest in was Angel when I was about 22. Another UA-camr named KillerColours loved Angel and all its flankers and she got me hooked. I bought the drugstore imitation of it for about $10 and loved it. Never bought the real thing and don’t think I ever will since I’m closer to being an Alien girl now.

I remember being small and sneaking in my oldest sister's closet and spraying Anaïs Anaïs by Cacharel 😂. I still like that fragrance actually.
My first love of a fragrance as well
Lol. I remember that I still love it. And Pavlova. By picassos daughter
I’ve been wearing Miami Glow since 2005 and just ordered my 5 bottle lol. Amazon has it for only $27.00 a bottle. A very nostalgic scent for me and my daughters.
My mom still wears Exclamation ! And I love it on her
Apparently Miami Glow smells very similar to Fragrance du Bois Oud Orange Intense (which smells amazing and is $750 usd for 100 ml lolll) AND Miami Glow and Oud Orange Intense were both formulated by the same perfumer!
My first perfume was Chloe Narcisse. It was a beast mode perfume, and way too mature for a teen, but I loved it. Wish they would bring it back.
My ever first designer perfume was Givenchy Dahlia Divine 30ml and I still have the bottle! And then came Baiser Volé, Eros, dior homme, black opium, miss dior and BOOM! 25 perfumes and growing. Amazing video 💕
The biggest problem with a perfume collection is not being able to have a signature scent. Loved your video !!
Your voice is so soothing! My first fav perfume is the Givenchy Play. My collection have grown since. But that perfume still hold a place in my heart. ☺
thank you so much :)
I see FragranceNet.com still has Miami Glow for $26! Fun video thanks! I am getting a little collection going and still struggle with what perfumes to wear when, would love a video on how to help people with that!
Such a fun video!!! For me it was the Skin So Soft bath oil from Avon and Love's Baby Soft, followed by a dupe of Obsession. Such great memories! Especially the bath oil, made me feel so special because it was my mom's and it was only for very special occasions.
My first was CK- IN2YOU and then CK-Eternity. I have both, only for nostalgic reasons ❤️
When I was younger I loved Beautiful by Ester Lauder and White Diamonds. Perry Ellis 360 was another one and then a couple of Victoria Secret like Bombshell and Very Sexy.
Ohhhh my gosh I forgot about Exclamation!!! I thought I was so cool by owning that bottle haha. Definitely rocked Love Spell or Vanilla Lace by Victoria Secret too 🤣

Hey girl, miami glow is on fragrancenet 3.4 oz! I remembered seeing it and double checked just now 😊
I just realized we’re the same age 🙂 I actually reminisced last week about the perfumes I used to wear when I was younger. Interesting to see where it all started, isn’t it?
Yes it is!!
First perfume I wore was colors from United colors of Benetton. Great and not so great high school memories. Thank you for sharing 💜

Loved this! 💕
Preteen and teen years were filled with Loves Baby Soft and Jovan Musk. Then the random perfume I got as gifts like Anais Anais. Loved the original formulation of Obsession, and CK One too!
Miami Glow is still available on fragrance net for like $23
My first perfumes were Tommy Girl, Mambo and Candies
I started my collection 4 months ago, I only had 4 perfumes, and now 36, I love all of them.
Agree.. CK was very popular in the 90's. I also loved Escada collections.❣
When I was little I remember my mom having Opium and L'air du temps. I loved both of those scents when she wore them. Very 80's.😍 You can still get Miami Glow. I just got one a month ago off of FragranceNet.

lovely idea, my first one was anais anais from cacharel and I still love it
I just posted about obsession on Insta 😂
I have a teeny tiny 15ml bottle...
I loooove Hot Couture and Fancy !
I am still an infant when it comes to perfumes... 😂
But when it comes to my mom’s perfumes, it’s another story...
I think my first was Elizabeth Arden Green Tea
First perfume I don‘t really remember. I was allowed to use my Mums perfumes which was Eternity by Calvin Klein and Happy by Clinique. That was around 1997 (I was 16 yrs old). I also owned and loved Miami Glow 💗
Such an interesting video!! Truly enjoyed every second of it!!! I remember smelling my moms anais anais from cacharel, hot couture and white diamonds from Elizabeth Taylor. I believe my first fragrance was either cool water or amour amour by cacharel 😄
I think my first teen-years perfume was Paris by Paris Hilton. 😂 I found it in a T.J. Maxx recently, and with one spray, a bunch of memories came flooding back.
I used to steal my moms Wish by Chopard when I was 13 and my first and most memorable perfume is Tempore by Laura Biogotti
I loved this video!!! Such a great idea. My first perfume was Si Lolita by LL and i still love it, but unfortunately it was discontinued.
I love xclamation! Had that! And found it in the grocery store in Namibia when i was a student there.
🇳🇦🙋🏾♀️ hi from Namibia
@@veenependa3796 yey! I took a semester there where i worked in a kindergarden in Otjiwarango (2008). So its a long time ago. Where are u from? We got friends who took us to swakopmund and walwis bay also. But had a lot of fun in otji!
@@shockbbyb9464 Wao Wao I am working in Otjiwarongo, originally from Omaruru but have been living in Otji. What a coincidence. You should come back and visit. Otjiwarongo is fine. We had severe drought for the past 10 years, last year and this year is much better and we are celebrating the rain. Greetings from Otji.
@@veenependa3796 Yes! I hope to go back and bring my kids. We went to down town a lot! Is it still there?
@@shockbbyb9464 Yes still there. Many developments though. I wish I can post a picture
I started with perfumes like Pret A Porter and Chanson D’Eau :)) Then escalated to Adidas Fitness Fresh. I also used Perceive and Pur Blanca from Avon for a short while. And then I discovered designer perfumes, in my last 2 years of highschool I used D&G Red and Hypnotic Poison (same as you, I used to wear these in the most inappropriate places and times, like daytime or school or summertime :D). Then I had D&G Light Blue as a signature scent for many years, until a relationship ruined that for me forever :( It’s funny how scents affect us for the rest of our lives.
After that, I kept searching for another signature scent for years and years, trying all sorts of designer perfumes, until this year, when I realized that I will probably never find just ONE fragrance to wear anytime, anyplace and I don’t even think that’s normal to be honest :) Like, how can you wear the same perfume when you’re running errands and on a night out?
You can find Miami Glow on Fragrancebuy or Fragrancenet. The first perfume I can say I wore was Green Tea by Elizabeth Arden.
All of our very firsts were the same, but I had to add Debbie Gibson electric youth and prescriptives calyx
My signature scent was Exclamation back in the late 80s. I smelled it at a store last week and it just didn’t smell the same. I was hoping it would evoke the past.
Debbie Gibson Electric Youth was my first perfume. When Ici by Coty came out, it smells very similar, and that was my signature scent until it discontinued. Trying to find my next signature scent is what sparked my perfume obsession.
I had totally forgot about how much i loved that Adidas perfume back in the day lol good times
They actually brought back miami glow and i was able to get my hands on it. Tho i think they only produced a little? So it’s still kinda limited. It’s getting a log of love tho im not sure if they reformulated it cuz i dont have anything to reference with. Mines manufactured on Nov 2020
I wore the crap out of sunflowers and Clinique Happy. I can't even smell them now, my taste has completely changed. Eternity was very popular too, I loved it but never had it for some reason. It was probably the price at the time. Thanks for this trip down memory lane.
Yes I remember that one too!!! Such a goody. lol:). But yes I don't think I could wear it these days.
The first ever perfume I had a bottle of and wore myself was an escada in a pink and blue heart bottle, I believe it was Island kiss.
The only perfume i remember really looking and wearing a lot when i was 17 was j lo glow as well 😄😄😄 i was looking for a bottle the other day but it is dicontinued there is only a newer Version but i did not like it... and i remember also one from Naomie cambell which i wore...
Nice Video! 🥰🥰🥰
My first was Lauren....JLo I just purchased 2 weeks ago, and cannot wait for summer to wear it!
My first real signature scent was Vera Wang Princess followed years later by Bath & Body Works Cashmere Glow. That was before I started collecting perfumes.
You still can get miami glow now at amazon. That is my fav summer fragrance
Love the idea 🌸🌷
Love the he video!
CK One! That was my first “grown up” fragrance and my brother bought it for me. Such a 90’s perfume, clean and fresh, way too cool for me at the time. 😆 Luckily, I had a cool brother. 😎
My first designer perfume was Daisy eau so fresh by Marc Jacobs. I loved it so much. Before that I owned the purple perfume by Katy Perry which smelled weird to my nose so I never wore it but I loved the cute bottle.
MY FIRSTwas Coco I think . Maybe Cristalle (Channel) very green!I remember Jungle Gardenia ,,Royal Secret ,. I too had friends that I borrowed scents. I honestly can't remember.Been a big part of my life almost as long as I can remember ... forever sweet memories on this journey
I just purchased Miami Glow from Walmart.com. It’s currently on Fragrancenet. Great video
Just ordered mine! Thanks for the tip.
I remember having 2 perfumes during adolescence: Fidji by Guy Laroche and Cabotine by Grès.
Back in the days when i was a teenager i had some nice perfumes: Light blue, Nina, Ricci Ricci, Black Xs, vanille bourbon and framboise from yves rocher
I liked my perfumes fresh fruity and sweet anything complicated 🤭
Then when i was in my early 20s i had Flowerbomb, Absolutely irresistibe, Lady million and La vie est belle, my taste has changed a lot from a teenager to a young women, but i only had one bottle that i finished before buying a new one
Now i have so many perfumes i love every perfume out there, my obssession is reaaaaaaal
I had a perfume named elan that was discontinued - then I went to Lauren for years but they changed the formula :(
Then black opium and just recently I’m exploring new fragrances - I am trying samples and blind buys
I have fallen in love with Muegler Aura Sensual
We shall see what else !!
My first perfume was strawberry from The body shop.
My first real perfume I owned was Gucci II in high school 💕 first one I wore was my mom's DG Light Blue.
I so missed out on that Gucci 2!!! I have never even smelled it!
I miss Gucci II so bad!!! It was my signature fragrance. There is NOTHING on the market that even smells similar to me. I have searched everywhere and I am still on the search for a new fav.
In the early 2000s, my first perfumes were Tommy Girl and Ming Shu Fleur Rare, which came in a really pretty blue pyramid shaped bottle.
Wow Ming Shu was something! One of the best perfumes i've smelled in my liiiiife
I had a small bottle my aunt gave me and i was obssessed
I still love Ck One. I also had Noa from Cacharel, Tommy Girl, Light Blue (and still love it) and had Glow by J Lo .
Nina by Nina Ricci was my first perfume! I loved the bottle too
Me tooooo
I loved it so much it's my most complimented perfume ever
I used two 100ml bottles it was my signature scent when i was 17 or 18
I believe my first perfume was curious by Brittany spears and pink Friday by nicki minaj which my mom had bought for me.
After that I never purchased perfumes and I stuck to solely body mists from bath and body works until quarantine! I created a perfume obsession.
I have maybe about 26+ perfumes now? 😅😅
The first perfume I ever wore was Tocca Simone. Like you, I didnt know what perfumes were popular, I just wore one that I found smelt nice
I wore New West by Aramis when I was 17. Does anyone remember that one?
I used to wear Lucky You, Curve, Heat by Beyoncé and Britney Spear’s first perfume when I was younger Lolololol
My first perfume was either Vanilla Fields, Exclamation or Navy I can't remember
Navy!!! I loved that fragrance. One of my first ones as well.
Omg, I used to wear that CK one too back then when I was 13th (2006) it was my brother’s, and then SJP lovely and Etienne Aigner Starlight when I was in highschool, because they were so popular back then. After that, I used to wear Bvlgari Omnia Amethyste when I was a college student, and then Chloe Edp. Now, I’m still exploring and trying to find the perfect perfume for me 😂
Also my first perfume was Exclamation in 1994!!! But I was 18. I'm from Czech Republic. Until 1989 was difficult to buy branded perfume in my country.
I wore Versace Bright crystal in high school and i believe in 7th and 8th grade of elementary schoool. Before that I remember malizia bon bons and honestly barbie perfume and that is all. On college i had armani diamonds, d&g light blue, ysl elle (it was a gift i gave it to my mum), escada taj sunset sparked my interest in fragrance. After that when i was about 21/22 i had chloe (signature), escada cherry blossom, britney midnight fantasy, katy perry meow and body shop white musk. Then i got also escada agua del sol, fiesta carioca and then i met olympea. I fell hard for olympea-it was first more expensive perfume i bought immediatley, and since then (about 2015) i went throught 7 bottles of olympea and one bottle of olympea legend. After that i started growing my collection. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing!! 💕 it love hearing about what people wore
I have just fallen in love with olympea and will be getting me a bottle. Such a beautiful fragrance!!
I loved Charlie White!
I had been gifted old left over perfumes as a child to play with, mostly Avon of drug or store brands
but the first perfume I bought for myself because of what all the girls were wearing at junior high school and what it smelled like was Love’s Babysoft ..
I bought some as an adult for nostalgia purposes but it doesn’t seem to be the same recipe and is not the same bottle
Most if these I haven't smell and some I want like the Miami glow!
Sweet honesty Avon
Hello Kitty by Sanrio I think, when I was 8-9 years old, first perfume ever ahaha
My very first was Loves Baby Soft & Malibu Musk
I used to wear Adidas Fitness Fresh when I was 15-16 :)
I have like 2 bottles of jlo miami glow ! Lol.... I got it just a few days ago on fragrancex....my 1st perfume I wore was I think britney spears fantasy, pink bottle. I was like 19 or 20 though I'm late in the perfume world!!
My first perfume was a CK one knock off I bought from the drugstore 🤣 I was about 12 at the time.
Hallo, my first was Janine D. Then, Magie Noire. And now Botegga Veneta. Geetings from Serbia☺️
Nina Ricci L’Air du Temps in the 80’ 😱😂❤️
