    Thank you for donating fragrances. I have a college degree but have been unemployed and looking for work for a long time. I no longer have any fragrances or wardrobe to speak of. I would really appreciate it if somebody near me did the same. I really miss smelling nice. Just another thing that makes you feel less human when you have zero dollars. Other things are more vital for sure but it all takes it's mental and even physical toll.

    I found a cheap perfume brand off Amazon I really enjoy. The brand is Anecdote. Weekend fling smells just like Cherosa 62. Carnival days is another one that smells like a sugared lemonade and it layers really good with CK in 2 U

    I often see Cheap & Chic I Love Love by Moschino at Shopper's Drug Mart (everywhere in Canada) for under $20, and I really like it. It's a super bright happy smelling grapefruit with cedar. It kind of has that early 2000s aquatic citrusy thing going on, which I love... I would defiantly recommend for the price if you like fresh scents and you are in Canada!

    I recently bought Lalique Le Parfum, a vanilla fragrance with an aromatic touch. It's fantastic! I think it's the best fragrance that I've purchased in the $20-$30 price range. It smells far more expensive than it's price point. I highly recommend it to anyone that likes aromatic vanilla fragrances.

    First let me say how much I enjoy your videos. I don't know what happened a couple months ago when I got it into my head that I just HAD to have a bottle of some perfume that I loved back in the 80s... and since that time I've become obsessed with fragrances in general (omg I wish I could afford some of them that i see on YT !)
    But I have decided to collect as many of my old favorites as possible and White Shoulders was at the top of the list. I just love it sooooo much.
    Another one of those, like Guess, that used to be majorly expensive. I've not heard you ever mention this fragrance .. have you ever smelled it ? I find it intoxicating.

Love your videos Olivia, your passion is contagious and I love the way you describe scents. Very informative! And thank you for focusing on some cheapies, which I feel often don't get enough consideration due to the incorrect notion that cost *always* equals quality. There's so many bangers in the sub-$30 price point, and a lot punch way above their perceived price point.

    I’m starting to see Ellis Brooklyn scents pop up most tagged at $29.99. I got Fawn for $29.99 and found Rrose on clearance for $14!
    Tocca pops up at TJ Maxx all of the time ! Usually smaller bottles but easy to decant and all are perfect for Summer!
    And don’t forget Le Monde Gourmande!

    Shock is one of my fave fall/winter scents and the love is in the dry down. It's the musk, amber and patchouli. I don't know how you feel about oils that have to come in the mail but Crow & Pebble has some veeeery interesting mixes that I'm more than a little curious about. It's a small business that could do with some love if her creations are as beautiful as they sound. For me, under $30 for one bottle.
