I love that you explained "this smells old" association! I always thought the same. I have all three Orebella scents and Window2Soul smells like if you were smelling an earthy rose garden with mint leaves in the background. Maybe it's the "earthy" part that makes people associated with old but I personally think it smells like a fresh rose soap. Super wearable!
Hi Emma! I agree, it is overwhelming in general when you get bombarded with a whole collection of fragrances. I think Fendi is trying to follow the way Celine released their collection, even mirroring the minimal fragrance note disclosure. Glad you have been able to upload more frequently .
I think with Fendi they are trying to do the thing that Chanel and Dior have done with their exclusive fragrance line. They just want to establish that collection all at once.
Fendi used to have epic perfumes but it’s been a long time. But I REALLY have to disagree with you about the marketing. Literally every single house starting a new line comes out with 4-6 fragrances at once and then adds 1 at a time. Even kayali started with I think 5 perfumes. Born to standout. Kilian. Memo. I can’t think of any house that started with a single fragrance.
I actually think we might be on the same page here! I meant a "slow release" as come out with 4-5 initially and then keep 2-3 of the rest as seasonal launches. I also think that only 1 would be far too little to establish a fragrance line, I just think 7 is a lot at once. 4-5 is the perfect sweet spot + keep some extras for later to keep us talking!
@@perfumerism 4 is great I think. Like “I am here. Take a look”. These charlotte tilburies are a lot to me and the fact that the names are not really descriptive makes it harder I think. I though am looking forward to the Fendi. I had a sample of Fendi Fendi for like 25 years until it dried up. I loved sniffing that vial.
It felt like I was the only one who doesn’t like solar/beachy notes & fragrances! Everyone raves about these notes & I heard soo much hype about the St.Barts fragrance, so I went to Sephora to try it and had the exact same screechy unpleasant experience as you! I’m glad to hear I’m not alone in this opinion.
There’s soooooo many beach tropical coconuts at this point, and 75% smell like sunscreen, all thanks to the Soleil Blanc trend. I miss the days where we’d get a gourmand coconut that smelled like Cheirosa 39. That’s what I always associated coconut with, not sunscreen. Also I sniffed all the CT perfumes through the bottle and I insanely knew it was a no for me. They’re giving me Tom Ford vibes and I don’t like Tom Ford vibes. I don’t know how you could make a rose somehow smell medicinal. Ugh it’s alright. I’ll save my money.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on the Charlotte tilbury fragrances as I’m curious about whether you agree that they’re as underwhelming as some other creators have thought! I’d also love to see some vlog-ish content like your “what perfumes I wear in a week” video because that format was super fun :) love your channel and have been binging all your videos the past week! 💕
I love listening to you talk about fragrance! I don’t have a big collection so I live vicariously through you lol. I’m on the hunt for a unique but wearable signature scent 💕
Finally! Someone ACTUALLY reviewing that Cirque Du Soleil perfume. I havent seen anyone talk about it in the youtube fragrance comm. thank you for this video ❤ keep em coming!
@@Happytravellerkimmy i only ever saw ads on instagram and facebook. Maybe its online exclusive only? Funnily enough i had a friend who went to Montreal over the weekend and told him to keep an eye out for it since i can never find it in any physical store in Toronto coz i wanted to try it out first before actually committing to a full bottle 😭🤷🏻♀️
I find it so odd that people associate old lady with roses because most of todays grandmas wore poison, opium or tresor which are not fresh rose. Or they wore mossy chypres from the 70s. Grandmas in the 1920s were into soliflore florals 😂 just a pet peeve of mine
I used to work in an assisted living facility and those ladies loved Fendi fragrances, I think maybe they were probably really popular a few decades ago.
Omg- I have been looking for a perfume that smells like a tortilla. Madewell had a perfume Sedona that was discounted and it reminded me of tortillas I grew up with. I am buying coco fleur asap!
I’m been LOVING the new pink sol de janeiro body mist!!! I wish they had it in a perfume concentration because it’s such a perfect almond sweet floral scent! I’ve been craving a nutty perfume and this is perfect!!
I blind brought Bianco latte from your recommendation it literally smells like coconut oil on me… is it supposed to smell like that.. ? I’m sad 😔 but your other recommendations became my favourite thanks ❤
I’m overwhelmed since Covid and watching perfume UA-cam!! Ehh 😅I narrowed it down to 20-3o!! I won’t fall for the Kayali launch I’m kinda over it! I have the cherry, pistachio yum and that’s it! Curious about the Fendi ones! Though they have some classics I’d love. Emma odd question do you happen to know the name of the blue paint color behind you? I’m about to paint my post divorce apt!! 😅
I really love watching your perfume videos more than the others because you go tell the story of this and that ingredient, or why "old" perfume had very strong musks to it. As much as I love hearing about new fragrances, I want to learn little history and tidbits here and there and you really shine in that. Thank you and keep up the great work!
And I'll add: I wonder if 30-40-50 years from now kids at that era will say that gourmand perfumes smell like grandma! Because gourmand is all the trend right now. Will they say Bianco Latte is like visiting grandma when she would bake cookies for them? LOL
Good point on the "old" association. For me this is Neroli - because my grandma only ever wore 4711 "Kölnisch Wasser", literally "the water of Cologne" ("Kölnisch" is the adjective meaning: coming from the city Cologne (originally: Köln) in Germany, after which btw all "colognes" are named colognes ...) I think the company marketing 4711 nowadays is called Mäurer & Wirtz - sorry for all the umlauts but that's how German works ..
My mom used to wear the og fendi fragrance just called fendi, I still have a bottle! It was a gorgeous scent, very spicy and feminine at the same time, she would get so many compliments on it!
Off-topic and also late to the party but ... dear lady, your arms and shoulders are so in shape, it really shows that you're rock climbing - and also lifting I guess? Respect.
Do you know if cirque du soliel smells like county fair by alkemia? Also those bella Hadid smells are no big wow other than packaging. The tuberose one smells like linear tuberose from bath and body works not fresh rose.
EMMA! 🤣 I wish I NEVER saw this video today. The moment you said those gourmand candles from Dyptique were limited edition and available until May 29th (today!!!), I dropped everything and purchased the trio set. I was like, "okkk cute, 140$ for three candles, we love that". But then got SICK to my STOMACH when I saw the conversion from USD to CAD (223 CAD) 😭😭😭 Regardless I'm super excited to smell the candles, particularly the coffee one! I've been sooo excited for the Cirque du Soleil perfume. I have fond memories of seeing my first show of theirs as a kid with my grandfather, and smelling the popcorn and cotton candy in the air. I have seen three of their shows so far and they've all been incredibly magical. I'm usually not a fan of wearing gourmand fragrances, but if it's airy like you said I might love it (I also really like Hard to Get from FORVR Mood). And like you said, I haven't heard or read a single negative review about it. But I feel like even if I hated the fragrance, the bottle alone would probably be worth it 😂 I'll likely get a decant though! & yes, Le Cirque du Soleil is from Quebec!! ❤ This was also my first year getting a limited edition summer body mist from Sol de Janeiro. I got the Beijos de Sol one, I love a mango scent! The Charlotte Tilbury fragrances were fine but pretty basic imo, & not worth the $$$ Excited to try out the Le Monde Gourmand frags!!
Emma oh my gosh. So I ordered the Cirque du Soleil and it arrived today. I was so excited when the box arrived that I opened it up on my front porch and when I pulled the cylinder packaging out of the box, somehow the plastic wrap wasn’t connected to the bottom and IT FELL ON CONCRETE. You should have heard me gasp 😅 but somehow nothing broke. It was like a perfume miracle. Can you imagine the devastation? But ANYWAY it’s glorious and thank you for recommending this one! I love it so much. ❤
I’m back to watch the cirque du soleil….im a Virgo I research something for like six months before I buy! ( I’m still researching your Smoke paint for my kitchen!! 😂) So I want to treat myself to ONE gourmand for my bday ( I’ve really limited what I buy!) and I’m thinking of Lira or the Cirque Du Soleil one…I need someone to choose for me!!? I hate making decision 😢 I know they’re different nothing to do with one another but it’s between those two! Help!? Projection and silage is important to me as I’m broke!! So spending $20o plus is a big deal and I rarely do! So it needs to be amazing Which one is better!? I’m more of an amber spicy or orientel spicy but I want one amazing gourmand!? And you had me with Nette…until you said Tortilla 😅
"Sexy tires" - OMG, I couldn't stop laughing, Emma, thanks for that! Like you I also love pepper in my fragrances, but when it leads to corn tortilla, IDK, you know? 😆 Anyway, this was a hugely enjoyable video. I wish I could sample the Cirque du Soleil fragrance. Sounds wonderful but $195 is a bit steep for a blind buy! I'd also love for you to review the Charlotte Tilbury discovery set. I got mine and would love to hear your thoughts on it!
Charlotte Tillbury love s*x (I think that’s the name) actually smells SO good!!! The notes look horrific to me but I saw it and smelled it for fun and it’s the NICEST leather omg
I was shocked by how much I didn’t like Love Delight on me. Based on the notes, I thought this would’ve been right up my alley but it’s a hard pass. On the other hand, I can’t wait to try a couple of the Fendi fragrances and Regime Des Fleurs Cacti.
Perfumes and headaches are so interesting. I think sometimes people just say it when they are annoyed by the loud smell. My mom had a perfume that literally made me sick, and gave me a piercing headache, everytime I smelled ut
I love the sound of pear jam. 🤣 I am annoyed by houses like jo malone with only three notes. I don’t need to know ever single note but I’d especially like to know when sometime is going to be sweet. I avoided getting Mon guerlain for the longest because it has the same notes as libre. And they are nothing alike.
This isnt related to this video in particular but thanks for putting me on to perfume samples because i genuinely didnt know those were a thing and it is making getting into perfumes so much more manageable. Im also just learning a lot about perfumes and scents in general so thanks for just enjoying your special interest publicly on the internet for folks like me😂😅
I totally feel you on the good day bad day spray thing! I had best day when I could barely smell my Delina but over sprayed for a birthday dinner and I was so self conscious that it ruined my night 😅
Hi! Do you have any favorites with blackberry notes that last? Tried Gucci Guilty absolute pour Femme yesterday and liked the beginning notes but then it turned disgusting :(
Sorry to jump in the conversation but I just really love blackberry! Lol So I don't know if it's your style of fragrance but I really loved the blackberry note in Pink Me Up! That one is a little bit pricey but then there's Sofia by Sofia Vergara and I can really smell the blackberry in that one and it's super affordable. Then at Target, MixBar has one called Blackberry Tonic, but actually Mixbar Wood Elixir smells exactly like blackberries to me as well. Hope that helps out! 🥰
Parfume De Marley, Meliora has a beautiful, sweet blackberry smell. And it smells so clean.❤ A cheaper dupe of this perfume is Ameythist, which comes in a beautiful purple bottle. 💜
I think Bella’s release of 3 was perfect . I agree the Fendi release appears overwhelming. I think her releasing 3 choices differentiated her brand from a typical celebrity perfume (if it has just been one) I got to smell everything but salted muse (the tester was stolen of course) and I loved the other 2 so much I got them after a 20 min trial lol
so glad u liked coco fleur!! I got it in a sephora discovery set & had a feeling you'd like it. it's really not what you would necessarily expect based on the notes!!!
Just a heads up on new perfume releases on Fragrantica, people like to vote on what it could smell like just by the notes. I'm sure there are some people who get to try the new releases earlier but it's a "thing" on Fragrantica for people doing wacky votes the first few days of a new drop. The reminds me of section becomes more trustworthy the longer the perfume has been out.
not me watching every video you put out knowing that my budget for perfumes is pretty much nonexistent 😅 i just love the way you explain scents. also i wholeheartedly agree with the "it smells old" thing. i think that many of our grandmas wore perfumes with rose and violet notes because they have been tried and true notes for so long. but that doesn't mean they can't be used by young people or that they can't be made into a modern perfume. i remember how pleasantly surprised i was when i smelled a couple of the delinas in store because i was so apprehensive about the rose notes. it also just rubs me the wrong way when ppl say that in a certain tone, as if "old" was an insult. we're so obsessed with staying young as a society that it permeates even when it comes to fragrance. idk i will probably never wear miss dior or diorissimo because to me they're my grandma's scents (she was a loyal dior girlie), but i would never tell someone that is wearing them that they smell like a dead old lady, that's just rude. there are many ways to express that you don't like or vibe with a fragrance that aren't insulting and it seems many people don't know that (I've seen more than a few heated arguments and insults in fragrantica comments... yikes).
I find that some people resort to saying “smells like and old lady”, “old man”, or “smells like a man” if the fragrance is flowery or aromatic or if it’s just not sweet enough 🤷🏼♀️
@@sabrinasjourney bold of you to assume what my grandma wore and presume to know better than me lol she did actually wear perfumes that leaned heavily on those notes. pretty sure the ones I mentioned feature them as well and in any case, those notes haven't gone anywhere for decades if not centuries. so yeah, my grandma wore them and maybe my grandma's grandma as well, because they've always been featured prominently in at least one or two fragrances for ages
fendi really sat quentin bisch down in a room and said "you will not see the light of day until we have a new collection" he put in the WORK LMAOO
LMAO right ahha this man’s back must hurt from carrying fendi
Lmaooo 🎉😂
LMAO THE QB inserts😂😂😂

I just got w2s and I’m glad I didn’t look at the notes before I tried because I usually don’t like rose, but I’m loving this.
Thanks you for being so informative. While being so casual at the same time. You make me feel like I am having a FaceTime with my best friends.
You should be getting paid for this because now I NEED that Cirque du Soleil perfume my gosh 😂😂😂
That darn bottle is pretty!

That's so funny, smelling perfume, not realizing it's your own -- "Who is she? Who is she? It me."
Do you know if cirque du soliel smells like county fair by alkemia? Also those bella Hadid smells are no big wow other than packaging. The tuberose one smells like linear tuberose from bath and body works not fresh rose.

You mentioned a Sol De Janeiro partnership. Are you getting paid for the review or a sponsorship?
no haha not on UA-cam- this is just my honest thoughts on the launch! I did a partnered review on Tiktok a couple of weeks ago:)

20:05 lol this story made me feel like I'm just talking to a friend watching this video hahah

not me watching every video you put out knowing that my budget for perfumes is pretty much nonexistent 😅 i just love the way you explain scents. also i wholeheartedly agree with the "it smells old" thing. i think that many of our grandmas wore perfumes with rose and violet notes because they have been tried and true notes for so long. but that doesn't mean they can't be used by young people or that they can't be made into a modern perfume. i remember how pleasantly surprised i was when i smelled a couple of the delinas in store because i was so apprehensive about the rose notes. it also just rubs me the wrong way when ppl say that in a certain tone, as if "old" was an insult. we're so obsessed with staying young as a society that it permeates even when it comes to fragrance. idk i will probably never wear miss dior or diorissimo because to me they're my grandma's scents (she was a loyal dior girlie), but i would never tell someone that is wearing them that they smell like a dead old lady, that's just rude. there are many ways to express that you don't like or vibe with a fragrance that aren't insulting and it seems many people don't know that (I've seen more than a few heated arguments and insults in fragrantica comments... yikes).
I find that some people resort to saying “smells like and old lady”, “old man”, or “smells like a man” if the fragrance is flowery or aromatic or if it’s just not sweet enough 🤷🏼♀️
They actually didn't wear roses and violets 😂 at least not YOUR grandma. Maybe.your grandma's grandma
@@sabrinasjourney bold of you to assume what my grandma wore and presume to know better than me lol she did actually wear perfumes that leaned heavily on those notes. pretty sure the ones I mentioned feature them as well and in any case, those notes haven't gone anywhere for decades if not centuries. so yeah, my grandma wore them and maybe my grandma's grandma as well, because they've always been featured prominently in at least one or two fragrances for ages
