    You look stunning. My heart is broken over mont blanc. It's a top 10 for life for me. I will remember not wear it if we meet. 🥰

      Tera !! Why does it do that to meeeeee ! Lol I have literally tried that fragrance like 5 times desperately wanting to love it ! I love the initial opening but something happens in the dry down wahhhhhhhhhh ! Gurrrrl you wear that Mont Blanc with pride I’d love to smell that on you ! It’s a beauty 😍😍😍😍😍

    Hey Melissa! Gorgeous eye look here. Yes, more of these videos please! It's funny with decants. I find I'm always harsher on decants than full bottles - maybe I look for reasons to enjoy a full bottle whereas it's easier to be picky when sampling first. Enjoyed the video!

    Now you got me really curious about making my OP oils into perfume.
    Glad to hear that I’m not the only one that has major problems with a certain kind of patchouli. I preferred the Interdit rouge for the same reason. GON and flankers, LVEB etc… I want to like them so much but they give me a instant headache

    Hi beautiful Melissa! Loving all the Initio reviews!!! It's a house I want to explore more for sure! I've sniffed Rehab and Side Effect, but they others you mention sound more up my street.
    Yay for Oil Perfumery. I was just about to do a video showing how to make the oils into sprays. Great minds, eh? Mancera is my newest obsession, and now Aoud Orchid is at the top of the list based on your description. I've been craving new things to blind buy, and that one is really intriguing me! Awesome-ness!

    Hi Melissa! I’m so excited to hear your opinions on these 🤩 most of them I haven’t heard of. But I have smelled mask therapy Mont Blanc signature which unfortunately didn’t work out for me and coffee addict, which also didn’t work out for me.
    I know what you mean with Montblanc it reminds me of my Lola’s lotions from way back when, those globe like Avon creams, which are too over powering for me.

    Definitely love these types of videos as well. You should definitely do more! Its always helpful to know which perfumes you dont think are bottle worthy. In a way I've been lucky in that a lot of the samples or travel size perfumes I've gotten I've really loved, however on the other hand, I dont want to use them up because they were expensive and I get super disappointed when i do run out of it. And then i want to buy a full bottle. Which i don't really need lol. I have many samples that I try to save an not use up all at once. I dont know if youre ever that way, but my husband thinks its ridiculous. He was abhorred the other day when he saw my large bag of samples sitting out. And so I i didnt tell him it wasnt even ALL my samples. I have many more in other bags. Lol.

    I really like this type of video, very informative!
    This might be a little off topic, but since you have said you like patchouli fragrances, but some can be bothersome, have you tried Reminiscence Patchouli? If so, what do you think? I have been thinking of getting it. I love patchouli, and it really isn’t all that expensive, but I have sooo many perfumes, I’m trying to limit buying full bottles.

    • @MelissaJean
      @MelissaJean  2 роки тому +1

      Oh yes yes ! Reminiscence Patchouli is fabulous - however you need to enjoy that earthy - thicker - patchouli almost like a patchouli oil . My husband loathes that fragrance when I wear it so I tend to wear it when he’s not around 😂 I have a huge 6 oz bottle and love it . It verges on chocolatey because it’s earthy and balsamic . It does have a slight vintage feel to it as well which I enjoy - so it’s a yes for me but I think you definitely need to be a patchouli lover to enjoy it . Luckily it’s affordable so fingers crossed If you end up buying it you like it ! 😍😍

    I have the same issue with Mont Blanc and kept thinking I’d love the little sample I have but I can’t do it. I got a travel size of Linterdit and mine turned to a syrup texture! So weird! It took only a couple months (stored carefully) and then I noticed it was not liquid anymore but more thick like a thin syrup.
