This was a bit of a rambly unscripted video! I don’t think there were any surprises in this list although I did somehow delete #4 by mistake during editing so for those who are curious- it was Shalimar 🙃
So happy to see Stella in this list! It was my signature scent from the moment it came out in 2003 until I became a frag addict in 2019 and didn’t have such a thing as a signature scent… but I still wear it and still love it. It’s definitely a forever scent for me! Woman by Ormonde Jayne has me curious now… 🙂
Thank you for a little kittie bit! So many clients of mine do not know there are two to three souls on our zoom calls as my cats are around me! Great video
Fritz looks like my dear departed, Oslo ❤️ Ginger cats are the best. The changes in your life sound anxiety-provoking, even if they are positive. It’s a lot at once. I hope you’re able to live in the moment and find time for joy. Life will start to feel normal again soon. Hang in there 🌸
Aww lol, the videobombs from your pets, so precious!! Especially where Poppy just plonks herself on your lap right in front. She’s beautiful. And the cat tail drifting across the screen. ♥️ Just great! Pets don’t believe in scripted either lol. 😂😂😂
Congrats on your new home! I hope you have many years of happiness there. I loved seeing your pets. Mine want constant attention as well. Excellent top ten choices. I don't think that I could narrow it down to ten. It would be too painful! I hope you have more work - life balance soon.
Great line up, Cherie. so many gorgeous, classic scents. I really need to try 24 Fauberg, I think I have sniffed it swiftly once, but I really don't remember what it smells like.
Poppyyyyy! Of course the list is lovely too ☺️.. Haven't tried the amouage -one but guess I should. Also great combo of niche, pricey and more available 👌🙏
Glad things have been quiet and relaxed for you😄 But congrats on the move and hopefully things can become settled soon. Tough choices here, but good ones I think! 👌🏻
🐱🐶Congrats on the house purchase and Happy Belated Birthday! I love old houses, but they certainly involve a bit more upkeep. 🙂 I've seen lots of Queenslander houses on House Hunters International, LOL. They're awesome. Excellent list, with a few on my to-buy list. I have Infusion d'Iris Absolue, which is like being on a fluffy marshmallowy cloud. Love it!
Okay, you’ve convinced me to buy a proper sample of No5 Premiere. I have the teeny tiny parfum that I adore, despite not being able to enjoy the EDP at all. But it would be nice to own a No5 that I could spray freely without fear of overwhelm. The parfum only needs the smallest touch to pulse points. I even bought a glass dipper to minimize the amount that I put in skin. This video was great!
Great to have you back Cherie! Best of luck with your new space and endeavors! Awww Fritz! I really want to try Beloved Woman as I’ve heard you speak about it in the past and it sounds up my alley. Also, No 5 Eau Premiere sounds really nice, I’ve never heard of it tbh! -Chris
For sure I think you and Camille would like Beloved. It’s not as challenging as some of the other ones you gravitate towards though but very beautiful. (Fun fact, when I typed “ones” above autocorrect changed it to “wines” which I thought was also fitting for a comment to you guys! Haha)
Moving can be so stressful (which is why I don't want to ever move again 🤣; just the thought of it makes me panic). Talking about being panicky: picking ten from my collection would be next to impossible! I actually wore the Eau Première this week as I listened to a podcast that was raving about Chanel No 5 ... and the only sample I found was Eau Premiere. However, I don't really know Chanel No 5 from really wearing it myself, so I personally cannot compare it to the original version. Let's say that it was enough aldehydes for me. Indeed, there are some fragrances that can penetrate masks 😂. I have heard so many good things about Stella that I really want to try it now! Thank you for this lovely video with your lovely pets! I hope you can relax now and that you had a fantastic weekend!
Nice to see you back! A big old house….hmmm….may the force be with you…😂😂👏🏻Also…..every one of my videos has doors being opened, dogs barking, phones ringing, microwave dinging……life with a full house……you will learn to tune all of that out in no time! 😄😉
Aw the kitty and dog definetly stole the show there. Such an interesting and hard hard video to do I imagine, like you say it changes minute to minute 🤣 glad to see you back tho fab video
Poppy is one of the most beautiful hungarian vizsla I've ever seen and trust me I can see them daily in Hungary. Solid list. The print or painting with the dancing couple is so eye-catching btw. Congrats to the house!
My decants and wild blind buy have just arrived. Good job Cherie! The Roberto Cavalli is so nice. It is softer than I expected but I love it. The Prada and Hermes are both great. I love the old school Hermes and I am sure I have smelled that before although never owned. The rest of your list I already had except poor me I am anosmic to OJ woman,..boo hoo. I really like the list videos ( well heck I like all the videos) because it helps me to prioritize my sampling and learn what I like. I always want to know what you are liking because you tend to not want to smell like a cupcake or a fruit bowl, ha! Thanks for sharing.
Wow thanks Annette! I’m so sorry to hear about OJ, yes a few people have mentioned they are anosmic, it’s sad, I wish you could smell what I smell, but then there are many more to explore perfumes and do explore and discover. 😍 What else have you been sampling lately?
@@TheTopNote Well,.. since my 24 Faubourg decant arrived yesterday not much else! But generally I have been working out my Chanel No 5 stuff. My favorite is still Eau Premiere but I am trying all versions, flankers and body products. I have also been trying the Chanel Paris line but no loves yet. Also Insolence EDP, Clinique Aromatics Elixir EDP, Feve, Tonka Imperiale and Mia's Blend. I did sample another Layered called Norma Jean last month and ended up buying a bottle. It is inspired by TF Rose Prick, so delightful. I have a decant of Amouage Sunshine woman. I am getting to know that white tobacco note so I need to give it some time. I am thinking that this upcoming fall is going to be a big rose thing for me so I am going to track down a Lyric decant next. Cheers!
Well we originally were going to name him Franz Cat-a-Liszt because he used to like to sit on the piano as a kitten…buuut that was too long, so it got shortened to Fritz haha
Hi cherie and fritz!! I love that you mentioned samsara and. 24 foubourg.im a 90s girl i actually have these both on my nightstand and will always repurchase them.you got me more interested in amouge i hear if you can find the right one its a scent for life.im going to get some samples.the only one i know i wouldnt care for is chanel 5.ive always found chanel very difficult to wear very aldehydey on me i do like there gardenia unfortunately thats the only one i really care for.and im trying also to find a rose that i like i just want one .everyone and there mother talks about delina the exclusif sounds richer and more appealing .i did hear from a couple of reviewers its for a younger crowd and scince im 45 im thinking initios atomic rose will be more for me.have you ever smelled this one? And if theres any perfumes that even come close to samsara i would be very interested!! Thank you for your video! Tell Fritz hello from Tennessee in u.s.😘💗
Fritz says hello!! Haha Oh ok so yes I do own Atomic Rose (picked it up in a swap earlier this year) it’s kind of similar to Delina but more green and very powerful. Maybe try Lyric woman? It’s a spicy rose (amongst other things) but people have also commented that it reminds them of Samsara so might address two of your requirements in the one hit! 😍
That is the million dollar question! I found mine on a local Ebay listing from a trusted seller but I usually find most of my vintage perfumes on Etsy.
I was able to guess 5 out of 10, as I watched all your previous videos in the past year 😁 Have you tried the new Ormonde Jayne line yet? I am tempted to blind buy Damask or Byzance at the moment.
I’m trying them this week! I think the samples should arrive tomorrow 😍 Since moving house I’ve been reaching for different ones that I have in decants which has probably influenced the list. I also missed of Sandalwood Temple but now I would have to bump one! Argh! It’s impossible really. Haha
@@TheTopNote I understand the problem 🤔Sandalwood Temple is gorgeous, I enjoy it and it is on my to buy list. Please share your thoughts on Ormonde Jayne, when you have the time of course. Maybe in a video?😁
Hi, oh sorry. I think I did say that I was wearing Musc Ravageur but the lady I was speaking of was wearing 24 Faubourg. Perhaps I accidentally cut the bit where I said what my scent was. I think my point was that her 24F was drowning out my MR haha
There were several editing mistakes and omissions in this one, first video uploaded for a while and on a very tight timeframe so, I just ran out of time to hunt down and insert pictures. 🤷♀️ sorry about that - I do usually do it but as mentioned we are still in the process of moving in, It’s a miracle I have a working internet connection! Lol Hopefully some bottles will be unpacked for the next one. 😉
I’ve learned about new brands of perfume. I wanted to ask you what are your thoughts about Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue for women. It’s one of my favorites.
Hi! I owned light blue for a short while but it didn’t really work on my skin. Was very sharp and not in a nice fresh, good way. However my friend wears Light Blue and it smells lovely on her so could have just been me. It’s popular for a reason I guess! Definitely worth checking out and should be fairly easy to get hold of a sample or decant if you don’t want to buy a bottle straight up. Le tmw know how you go if you try it! 😃 🤗
So happy to see again :) congrats on the house! your voice is so soothing, watery and melodic you should do recordings for Headspace as a side gig :) I thought Shunkoin would have made your list for this minute ;). I have the 200ml of Chanel Jersey and use that as my linen spray :) I could never get into any of the fusion d’Iris. I guessed 7/10, finally picked up Santal majuscule bc of you and ordered a sample of Beloved. Also got Night Clubbing bc of you and Tara and was floored by how realistic the nicotine smell is and yet super refined, I adore it and want the whole Celine line 😍
Oh what a sweet puss. Yes, can definitely hear the purring. I just cannot wait to try Ormonde Woman. We don't have anyone stocking this house in New Zealand sadly, so I'll have to wait until we can travel aga
This was a bit of a rambly unscripted video! I don’t think there were any surprises in this list although I did somehow delete #4 by mistake during editing so for those who are curious- it was Shalimar 🙃
I love when your fluffy babies make appearances!!

I love how Fritz photobombed the video 😺
haha and then Poppy later on! love them both 💕
puppy is adorable omg.. sweet girl
Thank you!! It feels good to be talking about fragrance again :)
Feels like Ive been away a lot longer than just a few weeks!
@@TheTopNote yes it felt you have been gone forever.. I'm glad you are back.. end exsited for future videos 💛💛💛💛

I have a dog that looks just like yours!🥰 she is awesome! Nice list💕
Just got teary-eyed seeing your Poppy on your lap 🥺🤧 so precious and beautiful! ❤️ you have an amazing spirit and presence 🌺✨🌺
Thank you that’s very kind!
So lovely list, so you! The co-stars are also just adorable. Video full of happiness.
Thank you! 💞
Congrats on your new home! I hope you have many years of happiness there.
I loved seeing your pets. Mine want constant attention as well.
Excellent top ten choices. I don't think that I could narrow it down to ten. It would be too painful! I hope you have more work - life balance soon.
Oh it was painful. So many that didn’t make the cut, but I would be so sad if u had to go without them!
Great line up, Cherie. so many gorgeous, classic scents. I really need to try 24 Fauberg, I think I have sniffed it swiftly once, but I really don't remember what it smells like.
Poppyyyyy! Of course the list is lovely too ☺️.. Haven't tried the amouage -one but guess I should. Also great combo of niche, pricey and more available 👌🙏

PS I have a dog named Fritzi! OMG your dog is such a cutie! Pets just love to photobomb!
Haha they sure do, thanks for watching! 😍

Hi. You have made me want to wear the fragrances that you mentioned that I own. Thank you for mentioning them. Take Care.

Haha yeah they are pretty fun! 💞
Haha the pets invasion 😁
When I saw the notification for the video, I thought "oh Samsara and Santal majuscule must be in this list" 😉
Haha I am nothing, if not predictable!
Ohhhh….exciting! Are you still on the Northside?
Those pets are adorable really
Well, I like to think so 🤗
Aw the kitty and dog definetly stole the show there. Such an interesting and hard hard video to do I imagine, like you say it changes minute to minute 🤣 glad to see you back tho fab video
Hi. On the top of my favorite fragrances is Norell. I am getting from Etsy a small perfume bottle for my purse soon in the mail.

I've made a pact to myself to use the ones I've got before buying anymore
I sampled Samsara days ago … (when I went to smell Shalimar edp 😁 ) I really liked it… ♥️
Oooh and what did you think of Shalimar?
@@TheTopNote i am loving the edt I have… and thinking of getting the edp soon ☺️
The first house I bought together with my husband was built in 1910. There were only 3 closets in the entire house. I feel your pain.
Three closets?! Ok I have nothing to complain about lol
Robert Cavalli scents are really reasonable and nice
What a cute name for your cat!
Well we originally were going to name him Franz Cat-a-Liszt because he used to like to sit on the piano as a kitten…buuut that was too long, so it got shortened to Fritz haha
