I’m sorry you don’t like Black Orchid I just received it for Mother’s Day from my son and I love it it was always on my wish list from smelling it at Sephora’s a year ago. This was a great video and your so right we all have different opinions on fragrances we are all individuals with different likes
I’m so glad you love it!! Some of my fave CZcamsrs love it!! I want to love it but not for me....it’s one though that I’m going to keep sniffing because I’m hoping I will understand it some day!! 😀
Omg I am so glad you said that about Black Orchid! It makes me think of a funeral home or a vampire
Totally!!! 🤣
I can totally agree with that description too! But the picture that I get is a giant snake that slowly crawl around your body and slowly strangle you. And it was so hard to wash off my skin lol. I cannot get the smell. It's a creepy smell to my nose. I muuuuch prefere Noir pour femme. It's beautiful and sexy indeed!!
Try TF Noir Extreme it's really really smooth despite the name Extreme 👍🏾
Exactly, haha!
@Serena Chairs it figures, hahaha
Lol! I've always said that Black Orchid is perfect for a winter funeral. I love it!
So Angel of Death-esque? 😜
😂😂😂 @ the I love it
Well, I did it! After listening to your review of Black Lotus I realized I no longer needed my doctor, shrink, psychic, etc. and canceled all future appointments. You are the best medicine for happiness. That description left me applauding your wit and sense of humor. Well done! 🤗❤😇
Awe, thanks so much!! 😘😘 glad I could bring some joy your way!! 😀
I am only a minute into this video and I already love it, even if you will break my heart in a bit with the ones you mention 😂😝 how did I not find your channel sooner?! I love your energy and when you laugh I just have to laugh with you. 💕 😝
😂😂I’m so glad you are enjoying Amy!!! 😘
The positive vibes you sent through the camera. Love watching your videos! Here's to more amazing videos and content!
Awe, thanks so much!!
Mine is Santal 33. It smells overwhelmingly like dill to me. Dill. Dill, dill, dill. That’s all I can smell with that one and I’m so confused how more people don’t mention it.
I’ve heard of the dill aspect before. I think people have mentioned dill for Marc Jacobs Decadence as well. Dill pickles me doll heads...no go’s for me!! 🤣
SAME! I get dill from a lot of sandalwood fragrances, but that one is def the most extreme
Yes pickles 🥒 glad im not on my own with this list
I love love love when you start laughing after saying something you think is funny I can’t help but start laughing right along with you, I truly needed it tonight. Love your sense of humor. Sending much love and blessings your way. 😂🤣😂🤣❤️
I’m so happy to hear that my insatiable need to laugh at my own oddities makes you laugh/brings you joy!! 💕💕
I love that we can agree on some and disagree on others and still be scent siblings! I keep hearing wonderful things about the Donna, and I'm super intrigued! Your Black Orchid interpretation..."Death zombie flower-person..." You're the best! You know how I feel about "The Shoe." Although I can't appreciate the scent itself, I will forever be thankful that it exists because it made me start a channel, which caused me to "meet" YOU and others in this wonderful community! Thanks (forever!) for all you've done for me!
Julija, of course we will always be scent siblings!! We aren’t twins but definitely kindred spirits 😘😀
I’m totally with you on Si & Hypnotic Poison, I love Poison Girl 💞
It’s so pretty!!
So far I agree with so many of them.. the only one I actually love is Hypnotic Poison 🙊😂 I love love lovveeee almond 😝
Well it’s majorly popular for a reason!! I don’t mind a bit of almond but it’s definitely not my favorite note! 😀
@@mariacollettlife like you said.. this is what makes it fun. It would be so boring if we all walked around smelling the same 🙌🏼 I love seeing videos like these 💕
I've never smelled an almond dominant perfume I don't like.
I'm so in love with the sunset eyeshadow blend you got going on...SO STUNNING!! I'm enjoying the content too!
Thank you so much!! 😀
Great video! I am also not a fan of Libre and Hypnotic Poison. Black Orchid...your description is hilarious, and I kind of get very similar imagery with this one 😍
Ya, I’m intrigued by the fragrance because it’s so bizarre but not for me!! 🤣
There is a reason it was on sale at Costco.. 😂☠⚰
I'm not a fan of Light Blue, it's too masculine on my skin even though I've received compliments when I've worn it. But, I just don't like it on me. I do adore Donna Trussardi, it's such a lovely scent. A great year round scent, but especially in the spring and summer.
Yes, Donna has a tarte but sweet quality that I love!
Same light blue on me smells horrible, but my aunt smells so pretty with it.
Omg 😆 Your description of Black Orchid is sooo spot on!!! Yes!! Death 💀 It’s a nightmare lol 😂 Also, Hypnotic Poison is absolutely blah + Playdoh 🤷🏼♀️ Love your channel!!!
Thanks so much 💕💕💕
Awww I adore hypnotic poison ☠️ 😅
Omg Maria I completely agree that Black Orchid is a horror movie! I was laughing because that's exactly my reaction. I had a bottle years ago and actually threw it into the trash. It's dreadful in every way to my nose. Love your personality and your channel!
Thank you so much!! Every once in a while I give it a small sniff. I usually like the initial sniff and then if I go back in, I'm hit with pretty much death 🤣
Haha! I feel the opposite about Armani Si. My eyes roll back in my head when I smell it. Fiori is also very nice.
A popular fragrance I hate is Marc Jacobs Decadance. I hate the bottle, but that I can overlook (I would just hide it at the back of my collection. The scent itself I really dislike. To me it just smells like pickles. I love to eat pickles, but I sure don't want to smell like them.
I’ve heard it smells like pickles. I need to go sniff it again specifically for the pickle!! I’m not a fan of that bottle either...so bulky.
A lot of ppl say they smell pickle in it 😂😂😂 I need to smell mines again just to see if I can lol I’ve only worn it twice
I love Armani Si and like Fiori.
Mon Guerlain is also beautifull.
I love this topic!!! 💚💚💚I'm with you on about half of these, lol - some of them totally agree and others I'm like..."but she's so pretty!" Great video!!!
That’s how I feel about declutter videos. My jaw drops when they get rid of something I love!! 🤣
LOL thank you for making this video!!! I’ve smelled so many of the ones you mentioned that are super popular and HATED them and thought what on earth is wrong with my nose?! The answer is nothing. Because a ton of the ones you mentioned liking I also love! 💖💖💖
Your nose knows!!! Just gotta trust it 😜 glad you enjoyed 💕
Your 1st 2 broke My Heart 💔😭
But you I felt relieved when you mentioned My Fave La Nuit Tresor 😍💜
I'm up there with you for Black Orchid.. I can't stand it! 🤢
I totally understand! I feel that way when people declutter one of my faves!!! My jaw drops and I’m like, “WHAT???? NOOOo!!”
Lmaooo @ your description of Black Orchid!!! You're just TOOO FUNNY!!! Im definitely not going to ever buy that one!!!😂
Oh never say never 😜
@@mariacollettlife Ok...not until I'm like 80 yrs old then!!!
I love Angel with all my heart but I gotta say you must respect its power. 2 sprays and this is it or you will be ready to suffocate the world. I ended up loving Angel EDT way better. Like you I also prefer Mon Guerlain over Libre. Mon Guerlain intense is to die for 💕
I actually like angel edt...just can’t take the edp!! 😀💕
I’ve had the EDP for over a year and I think I’m ready to retire her and try the EDT as well
If you don't mind would you please list all of . All the way from your primer to your eyeshadow and everything in between please. I love the Smokey looks and it would be great if you would list all of those so we can recreate. Thank you very much!
Oh, thanks so much for suggesting that! I will try to do that from now on 😀💕
Haha, yes! Black Orchid is totally morgue vibes. It triggered my anxiety and made me physically sick. I remember I threw out the card and had to take the garbage outside because I could still smell it. Our noses aren't immature, it's just nasty 🤣
Morgue vibes? Death, zombies? So, like sweet decay? 🤢 I'm intrigued.
My husband thought it was horrible and it made him nauseous lol
Yessss🤮
Nomade edp too 🤢
The first time I smelled Black orchid I was amazed, after hearing so many bad things I was expecting to smell something really bad. And it is gourgeous!!It's funny how different we can perceive fragances
I dislike Flowerbomb with a passion. And I wondered was something wrong with me that I didn't get the hype over that perfume and Si by Armani. I just don't get it.
No way! I think that’s why these type of videos can actually be helpful. We aren’t all going to like the same things! Negative viewpoints can be helpful especially when someone is trying to get a good idea about a perfume.
I don't like flowerbomb either, it makes my nose itch and smells dusty to me.
@@oldonetwoable l don't like it either, l don't get the hype.
Omg! Same here.
I Love watching you Maria! The way you say Armani Si is so cute, 'Are manie Cee' 🤗 funny and adorable 😘
Awe, thanks! I didn’t even know I was saying it weird! Is it are-mon-ee?
@@mariacollettlife Yip 😘
@@mariacollettlife It’s aar - maa - nee 🙂 Don’t worry about it Marie, it’s not a huge difference 😘 Love your energy as always!
I 💯% agree with all of your dislikes. Absolutely cannot do hypnotic poison play doh. You nailed it with black orchid smelling evil! Love love your videos darling.
Thanks so much!!
There’s a few that I’ve always wanted to buy but wouldn’t because of the high price as well. Thank you for your recommendations definitely have to look into them. I love your energy and your makeup look is stunning 🤩❤️
Thanks so much for watching Stephanie!! 😘😘. For now, I’m primarily sticking to designer fragrances- they are pricey enough!!! The niche is on a whole other level of crazy expensive!!! 😬
This was funny, honest, and just a joy to watch. My sister and I are the same way, she hates that I love florals/sweets and she is citrus/spicy, but she will always give her honest opinion about a fragrance.
I’m so glad you enjoyed!! 😘
Yes! There are so many that you mentioned that I feel the same about!...Angel, Light Blue, Libre....I don't smell the delicious that everyone else does. Thank You for making me feel normal Maria! :) Thank You for doing this video and the total non judgy vibe - we were all created differently and thank God for all the variety of smells!
I’m glad you enjoyed! I agree, the fact that we don’t all like the same thing just speaks to our amazing uniqueness!! 💕💕💕
Oh my God this was hilarious remember I don't even wear perfume I just love you so much that I have to check in! Oh my God doll head and Play-Doh and bandaid and how you describe Black Orchid was just over the top hilarious I just love love love you.. I keep coming back on in editing because it just gets funnier and funnier I don't know why I cannot wait until the end of a video to comment
🤣🤣🤣 I’m so happy to hear that you are entertained! Thanks for watching. So if you don’t wear perfumes, what other content would you suggest for me to do if I were to expand?
@@mariacollettlife I love everything about you-- I would be interested in anything you muse on..! I think I wrote a little while back that I would watch a video of you describing paint drying because you're so eloquent and so humorous!!! That's why I watch you!! Even the video where you talked heart-to-heart about things that had been going on was precious😘
The subjectivity of fragrance is fascinating to me. I love how different people smell different things from the same scent!! The way you feel about Nomade is the way I feel about Coco Mad and vice versa. However, we both like Burberry Her and other fragrances. It’s crazy to me! And fascinating!! ✨magical✨
I know, it’s so cool to me!! 💕💕😀
I totally agree with you about black orchid but I still love it 😆. My husband is absolutely obsessed with it, he can smell it on me from across the house, so I break it out on date nights.
That’s awesome!! I want to like it but don’t. It’s one I’m going to keep going back to though
Right now I feel like I was just released from a chain gang! I live in Florida, my air conditioning unit took the full day installing, I expected. The heat and humidity was getting unbearable with my daily migraine.
I have yet to watch your video; but I will tonight!
Maria, I thought just this week about frags I either wore (scratching my head 🤦) or those I detested but they were very popular. Example, HALSTON, CHANTILLY,
SHALIMAR, and I loved beast mode. Oh, and the pits was enduring my Supervisor's "signature scent" perfume. Thank God it is now a no no to wear perfumes that just aren't office friendly.
I can't wrap my head around wearing one frag. every day. 👎.
***I'm scrolling through comments; people you outdid yourselves! I love the honesty and humour!
I’m sorry that you are hot, sweaty and have a migraine!!! That sucks. 😘
I love Alien and Angel, I'm an Angelic Alien
You are a muglerite of the highest order!!! 😜💕
I so badly want to fall in a Mugler category but I don’t like either one 😩
Me too! So happy I am not alone 😉
I am the same. I love them both. Alien a bit more but in the right situation, Angel is so beautiful.
YoU cAn'T lIkE bOtH! yOu'Re EiThEr An AnGeL gIrL oR aN aLiEn gIrL! So sick of the either or narrative. That being said...I'm an Alien girl 😂
I loved your description of Black Coral by Floral St. The colour of the juice on the paper looks so dark and gothic.It sounds like the perfect scent for Halloween 🎃
I think it would be great for Halloween!! 😀
I love ur explanations of the scents. So hilarious. I understand exactly What u are saying and feeling.
Also, the part about not saying u like something just because others do
Glad you enjoy them!!
Chloe Nomade wasn't a Love at 1st sniff for me.. But I'm learning to appreciate it.. Just like I'm doing with Tuberose 😂
I’ve fallen pretty hard for tuberose!!!! 💕💕💕💕
I had to go for the Absolu I couldn’t get with it atm.
It is unique tho I’ve never smelled anything like it I appreciate that
I find this so funny, I love si, and hypnotic poison, and D&G, I also bought trussedi donna as you have mentioned how amazing it is so many times, and oh my goodness, Devine. Yet I bought a sample of Lira and can not stand it. So very strange how our noses work. I have not smelt all of the ones on your list as I am fairly new to the fragrance world. I look forward to giving some of them a good sniff though. Love your videos Maria. Thanks for bringing smiles to my day!
I agree...it's all so subjective!! I love how diverse and unique each of us are and am very glad there are so many delightful fragrances out there so that there can be something for each of us!!
Yeah, this is why it's really difficult to buy fragrances from listening to or reading reviews - it's just too subjective. It's really hard to find a reviewer who shares most of your likes and dislikes though I keep trying :)
I think it’s fun to listen to everyone’s takes but at they end of the day, it’s never a sure thing- I’ve found that out the hard way, blind buying on the recommendation of someone that seemed to have similar tastes! That said, it’s all a bit of an adventure!!😀
@@mariacollettlife Yes, I would not blind buy on the recommendations of one person, I take many factors into consideration. At this point in my journey I only blind buy if it strikes a chord and it's inexpensive enough to risk a mistake. I usually just follow my instinct and thankfully I haven't had too many bad purchases. Most of the time I have to sample something before buying especially if it's pricey - like Delina and BR540, I tested these and glad I did because they've been all the rage, everyone raves about them, but both are horrible on my skin and would have been expensive mistakes if I had blind bought them on reviews and recommendations :)
I agree with you on so many of these. I can’t stand Si, Libre, Hypnotic Poison. They smell horrible on me.
Well I think that’s part of it- our skin chemistry does weird things sometimes with fragrance!! 😀
Oh my gosh Maria, you had me rolling with your Black Orchid section! You are so funny! I've hated that perfume from the time it launched and I smelled it at Nordstroms. I had that very same visceral reaction you show at 14:00, in front of the saleswoman no less, hahaha! I was into perfume then but didn't have the nose I have now and I thought I was smelling dirt and patchouli on steroids. One I can;t stand currently is Baccarat Rouge 540. I don't know what it is about that one but there is also a dirt note I pick up or some discordant note, and if a reviewer says another perfume smells similar, I probably won't even try it I hate that profile so much. oxJulia
As somebody who shares a dislike of tacky bottles I highly recommend trying I Want Choo by Jimmy Choo if you're looking for something that gives a similar vibe to Good Girl. It's warm and cozy like Good Girl but with a fresh peach note instead of dirty chocolate. And no strange stiletto ☺️
I will give it a go. Not really a fan of the smell of good girl either…😬
@@mariacollettlife ohh!! It may be worth a skip then. I'd definitely sample before blind buying :)
I love the way you describe perfume, so funny! I don't like any of these either(except D&G). They're all ones I smelt, and just thought REALLY?! The one everyone loves that I just don't is Chanel CM. I want to love it, but it gives me a headache and I had to return it 😢 Thankfully I watched one of your videos, and bought Elie Saab le parfum. It gives me the same vibe, and I love it!
Well I love CM but I’m really glad Le Parfum worked for you!! Sometimes I’m scared people will find that one too heady with the white florals. 😀💕
Your description of Black Orchid had me singing 'Little Shop of Horrors'- maybe that's why I love it so so much! Such an enjoyable video!
I’m glad you love it!!! Seriously, it’s one I want to love but for now, it’s one I love to hate...like seriously, I enjoy sniffing it but just can’t wear it!! 🤣
@@mariacollettlife I know, it's certainly not to everyone's taste! How do you find Velvet Orchid? I think it has similarities but it's easier to love.
Just discovered your CZcams videos. I love the honest but very funny way you describe perfumes! I agree with you on many of your reviews! I really wanted to love Dolce and Gabanna Light Blue as it smelled amazing on other people, I’ve tried it on myself several times and it just has an awful sharp note that I find quite sickly! I’m looking forward to catching up with your videos 😃
Well I"m so happy that you found me!! Yes, Light blue is soooo popular but just DOES NOT work for me either!!!
Your makeup is STUNNING and you are highly entertaining :-)!!
Thank you so much 🙂
Hahaha oh gosh I love that you said libre! I felt like the only person in the universe!
Like literally my mail man just drove by and I swear I could smell his sillage and he had it on
It’s just too much of something when I wear it. I want to get a restraining order
Nothing like sniffing the mailman’s sillage!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Maria I’m converted haha…
I tried the new edt and I actually love that one! It’s brighter and more effervescent than the edp or intense
Oh yes !!! lemon turkish delights ! lemon and powdered sugar ! that is the Donna entrance !
Ya, I love it!
The only one that hurt my little heart was Hypnotic Poison lol 😂 But perfume is so subjective and smells so different on different people. Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet smells gorgeous on my sister. Floral with delightfull balance of freshness, sweetness and muskiness. On me, though, it gets cloying and makes me nauseus. So strange that our skin draws out so different aspects of a fragrance.
I sat next to a girl at a party once and her fragrance creeped me out! I many times have wondered if something is wrong with me, being creeped out by someones perfume - I am so happy that you describe the same thing 😅 Maybe it was Black Orchid, idk. It litterally smelled like a horror movie in my mind.
I totally know what you mean by being creeped out there was this one woman I don’t know what her fragrance was but she was around in my circle, and I literally hated being around her because of her fragrance and somehow it was so cloying and sickly that it made me feel super creeped out! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@mariacollettlife I totally get ir! 😂
OMG you are too funny 😂
Black orchid reminds me of a funeral parlor! LMAO
It really is a very weird scent to me. What I love is that It gives me a vivid response. Even if I don’t like it- I appreciate the genius behind it!!
Your laugh is so genuine and fun.
I don't get bandaid from BR540. It's definitely worth a sample.
Ok I will sniff it!! 😀
It's funny that there's a world of difference between my loving Chanel Chance eau Tendre and absolutely hating the original Chance! The original Chance smells like a generic bubble bath! Yeachh! But I've fallen madly in love with Chance eau Tendre - perfectly light for work but also sensual, so I feel very sensuous wearing it. Love this video and I'm glad you're so honest!
I’m glad you enjoyed! Thanks for sharing your picks!
Lancôme La Vie Est Belle, not a big fan at all. The perfume is super sweet and gives me a headache. I tried so hard to like it and I just can't.
I totally get it about trying hard to like something!!
I love your energy Maria, and whenever you laugh I laugh with you. You are a happy soul. I love your reviews. Sending hugs from Zambia Africa
Oh thank you so much!! Laughing is so healthy and good for us so I’m glad you join me!!! 🥰🥰
@@mariacollettlife 👌❤
I love the way you describe why you don't like perfume. And I do like that we don't like the same perfumes, otherwise we all would smell the same and where is fun in that
There’s nothing fun about all being the same is there? 😀
I agree with almost everything you mentioned in this video. I like Libre and Chloe Nomad but not sure if I like them enough to buy them.
I love the doll head vibe, but La Rive Sweet Hope was too boring for me. I was hoping it would smell more like root beer, but it didn't. I gave it to my 22 year old, and she seems to like it. I recently ordered the La Rive Fleur de Femme, so hopefully it lives up to the hype, considering how difficult it has been to find lately. My fragrance preference tends to be sweet but not too sweet, so some of my favorites are Guess Seductive Red, Franck Olivier Oud Vanille, and Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy. Things that are sweet, but have a bit of freshness or something interesting beyond just cloyingly sweet.
Man, when you started mentioning La Rive, I knew you were my kind of person. I got into perfume during the pandemic, when it wasn't really safe to go out and try samples at the store, so buying dupes is how I have been trying notes and combinations and educating my nose. I can't afford to blind buy all the perfumes I want to try, but I can afford to buy the La Rive version, and if it doesn't work out for me, I can sell it on Mercari. I don't know if you have already noticed this or not, but the La Rive fragrances have a tendency to get stronger if you let them sit. So if you ever love the scent of something but it isn't strong enough for you, try waiting a while and it will strengthen.
I'm glad I found you. You are hilarious, and describe scents in such a great way. I'm subscribing for sure!
I'm so glad you like my style of descriptions! I've noticed that about my Fleur de femme...it's definitely gotten stronger. I'm going to check out my other ones to see if the same thing happened with them!
FINALLY, someone who totally agrees with me concerning Black Orchid, hahaha!!! The first word that came to my mind when I smelled this horrid fragrance was "tomb"!! Totally horror movie, vampire vibe!! Arghhhhh!! I could never understand HOW so many people love this stuff!! Actually, we do seem to have very similar tastes in perfumes, as I would never be caught dead in any of the ones you mentioned (whereas I might smell like Black Orchid when I am dead, hahaha!!)
Well I find it so awful that I’m fascinated by it! 🤣🤣. Who know though- if I sniff it enough, maybe it will finally make sense!
When I see you this Friday you have to try Omnia Coral Bvlgari it is fresh, citrusy and a bit like grapefruit, when I am sick of light blue I wear this and LOVE it.
Can’t wait to smell it!!
I accidentally got too close to a bottle of that Tom Ford Black Orchid...I had to run away. I got away from it, but the memory still lingers. What the heck is in that stuff? I loved at first the tropical notes but then something horrible happened. It's sort of like you said, the Death Zombie Flower Person. It's sort of weird that someone else was frightened by it too. It smelled great but then, like I said, I ran away.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I totally hear you!!
Where have you been new subbie here
Absolutely loved the blk orchid description and acting lol it makes me want it more now
Big hugs from Scotland xx
Thanks for becoming part of the weird and wonderful family!! Glad you liked my descriptions! 😀
Your eyeshadow is beautiful in this video! Just gorgeous
Thank you!!
Big big like for the way you describe fragrances. You have such an amazing imagination. For me the fragrances I will never buy are:
Angel by Thierry Mugler
Chanel No. 5
Nothing from Elizabeth Arden
Balenciaga "Paris "
Acqua di Gioia by Armani
And for sure nothing with vintage smell or leather.
I’m glad you like my descriptions and thanks for your list!! 😀💕
Instead of Angel try the la Rive dupe River of Love it is similar, but not as strong. Lasts a long time on the skin too.
Loved this video Maria! I am very weird as I love trying wearing perfumes that I don't get on with, if something rubs me the wrong way I'm super drawn 🤣🤣🤣 The more comfortable I get with a fragrance, the less I smell it and it bores me haha over time.
Actually that’s cool. I’m like that with florabotanica. It’s not a normal scent I would go for but it’s so interesting to me. I’m pretty sure I’m going to have to get it.
I am that girl that gets disappointed when there's a fragrance that everyone else like but I don't. So I started telling myself exactly what you said. Funny how I have to give myself a pep talk to get out of the disappointment, lol.
It’s totally true! I want to like them too. The most recent is Kayali Invite Only…nice but wouldn’t buy a whole bottle. I guess it’s just a way that we can celebrate our uniqueness! 😜
Newer subscriber here, love your channel!
My nose picks up bandaid smell from both BR540 & Ariana Grande Cloud. 😕
Totally agree on the Good Girl bottle. I like the scent and I bought it because my husband really likes the scent. That bottle lives waaay in the back of the perfume shelf. 🤣
Oooo now I’m going to go home and smell cloud to see if I notice bandaid!!!! Thanks for subscribing! 💕
Love your alternatives!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! I’m glad to hear it 😀
I wear Alien anytime as well, I wear that baby in the office, to go shopping, whenever!
Amen!!! 💕💕💕
Beautiful eye make up hun 💕💕💕💕
Thanks Ange!!
I love your Black Orchid description! Spot On. I love Black Orchid, bring the zombies on! :)
Well I keep going back to it and sniffing…I keep thinking any day I will realize I’ve now joined the dark side 😜
@@mariacollettlife We have cookies 😁
Dior Hypnotic is my FAVE of all my top shelf brands💜💜💜😂 that is the only one that I will spend that kind of money to buy😂😂 I will accept others as gifts, but when I run out of hypnotic, I will purchase that one myself😂
Yay too Trussardi!!! Great review and I totally agree with you on almost all of your pics 😆
Glad to hear it! 😀
I have to say, Si is my absolute favourite! But I cannot stand Good Girl 😜 xx
I personally think the people that dislike Si are in the minority!! Many awesome reviewers love it!! It’s got to be super popular and a best seller for a reason!! 😀
Your "negative" description of Black Orchid would've convinced me to try it... if I hadn't already and found it just wasn't for me.
I can’t believe that I smelled it recently and almost liked it!! A few more sniffs and I will head to the dark side’ 🧟♀️😜
I enjoy Libre now but I had to work up to it for a few days as the beginning is so scratchy. The end notes at the end of the day is everything sensual to me. I don’t care for Lt Blue either. Have a great week!
You have a great week too!! 💕
Elie Saab Royal-which I know you love, and, I bought because of you-smells like TF Black Orchid very closely with all of the “death notes” removed.
I smelled it and said ‘Oh, that’s Black Orchid with training wheels’.
The rose is more pronounced in Royal. Making it decidedly more feminine and wearable.
I just ordered Narciso Rodriguez Rose Musc (blind buy). I feel like it’s going to make an incredible combination with Royal.
🌹💜
Oh that’s super interesting! Do you like black orchid as well? How did you like Royal? Are you a fan? You’ll have to let me know how you like the pairing with the NR fragrance!! 😀
@@mariacollettlife I do like Royal. I have to say, I’m a very “seasonal” girl. So it’s hard for me to appreciate it now (got it just over a week ago), but come winter I can see how this will smell luxurious. I love that the rose is detectable but not obvious.
Judging by the notes and what I know of the Le Parfum line and Narciso...I am excited to combine.
I have Black Orchid Edt. I like it, but not love.
It smells like pickles and a wild ending to a Tinder date😂🤣 Not that I know from experience.
It’s a masterpiece, for sure! I prefer Royal.
Love your energy. Even my husband comments when I’m watching your videos.
Cheers 💜
@@reethedon thanks so much. I love your description of pickles and a wild tinder date 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@mariacollettlife By the way, I wore Royal last night to bed...It’s stunning!
Deserves more attention than it gets.
If the performance were more “beastly” I would guess it was a niche fragrance. 🌹❣️🌹
Why can't I understand 540, Girl of Now, Delina, Roses Vanille and Alien?
I really tried to understand Delina too! 😂
Oh I hear you! It’s always like, “what am I missing here?” Bottom line is that we are each so different!! 😀💕
Love hearing your opinion! I absolutely hate Armani Si, YSL Libre, and all things Mugler. 🤣😩
Really would love for you to get your nose on Bacarrat. It’s beautiful, smells like a burnt caramel sundae at a posh restaurant. I think you may find it interesting. 🥰
I agree, I need to give it a sniff! 💕
OMG I smelled Armani Si's last week at Sephora and i didn't like any of them! So I am excited to hear you dis it.. Or Libre lol I don't like them..
Please try BR540. Also I do love Light Blue.
I will try 540- I think my friend has a decant! 😜💕
I am a new subscriber and i love your energy. I totally understand this with the overhyped perfumes. I cannot stand Delina for example and everybody is raving about it. But i buy and wear only what i love no matter the price or if it is niche, designer, celebrity.
Exactly!!! Wear what you love no matter what!! Thanks so much for subbing!! 😀
Delina Exclusif I love!
I just love her personality she is hilarious!!!!!
This is THE BEST Afragrance channel!
Thanks so much!!!
I have yet to find a Tom Ford fragrance I like. I will never buy Coco Mademoiselle, but I have and love Nomade, lol. I avoid patchouli like the plague
What would be your favorite fragrance these days? For me, I don’t mind patchouli but if it’s too strong- I don’t like it!!!
The B.O. description - what it reminds you of! I die 🤣🤣🤣
😜🤣 nothing like those bodily fluids to make me shudder!!
Great video ! Always enjoy watching! Did you get the edp or edt in the Trusardi Donna?
It’s the edp...have you sniffed it?
@@mariacollettlife not yet! I’m going to purchase eventually !
I love Mon Guerlain and Libre- I love them both actually. I do prefer Mon Guerlain if I had to choose though.
Hypnotic Poison is probably in my top 5 for life. I also have loved play doh since I was little so it’s probably a nostalgic comforting thing.
For me, even as a child, play dough smell made me feel sick! 🤣. So many people love it though- pretty sure I’m in the minority 😀
I love,love Si,Libre and Angel 😍
I know that they are beautiful as so many love them- my nose is to blame! 🤣😜
For me the ones I dislike and regret purchasing are Cashmere Mist by DK. It smells like diapers (fresh diapers lol). And I do not like Sexy Amber by MK (too strong and sweet) or Bright Crystal by Versace...oh and yellow diamond either. Ones I love and will buy over and over would be Jadore and Chanel Eau Tendre.
I haven’t smelled j’adore or eau tendre! I will have to remedy that!! 😀
Cashmere Mist is my signature fragrance. I am constantly having people stop me and ask me what my perfume is. I had two people compliment me this afternoon. I have worn so many fragrances over the years but this is the one that gets me a lot of compliments.I guess it must mix well with my body chemistry. I also have Jadore and Baccarat Rouge 540 but neither gets me the compliments that Cashmere Mist does
14:50 a sales associate at a perfume store tried to sell me Black Orchid nearly 20 yrs ago when I was out shopping with my ex-husband.. I literally said "WTF is this?!" I hated it immediately and felt insulted.. honestly, Tom Ford is clearly not the house for me because I only like "Lost Cherry".
I like several from Tom Ford but black orchid is definitely polarizing!!! 😀
I agree with pretty much all of your dislikes except for Carolina. I completely understand how some Perfumes can disagree with a person's body chemistry. Chloe Nomad in my opinion holds no candle to the original. I may try the Cocoa Mademoiselle and see how it fairs for me. I agree there are many perfumes that have been overhyped but I agree it's personal preference. Sometimes as we mature our scent palettes change also. Like the alternative perfume recommendations.
I agree with you. I think it’s a maturing or a changing. Perfumes that I loved to begin with don’t do it for me know...the nose can be fickle I guess but to me it’s what makes it such a fun adventure!!
Hi Maria, been waiting to watch you today! Mine is BR540. I’m so sick of that one!
I have smelled ones that are similar and dupes and they just don’t speak to me either. It sure is popular though!! 😊
I’m sick of it too I think Gentle fluidity gold is soooooo much better than BR540
You mentioned Burberry her...I get that dry down too, it's the ambroxan...bandaid smell to me. What are your thoughts on nirvana black? There's times where I really love this.
I haven’t smelled it in a long time so I can’t give you my thoughts but I remember enjoying it!
Hi Maria. When I saw that a...innine heel at Sephora, I just couldn't get past it. The scent is nothing special.
I thought I would love E.SAAB GON, but it's waaay too sharp and never dries down on my skin.
Burberry Her....Yum!
I just received the dupe from OILPERFUMERY. IT'S EXCELLENT.
You're right, we simply can't all like a fragrance, even if we're in the minority!
It’s what makes us way more interesting!!! 😀💕
cerruti 1881 ... my sister gifted me a bottle once after saying 'this is another cheapy that is really good, I will bring you a bottle' ... then I got one, but it is a camomille and I really came to thoroughly dislike it, then some months later she brings over some bottles she doesn't use anymore and what's in them: her cerruti 1881 bottle almost untouched :-D
That’s hilarious!!!!
I’m on board with you on most of these! That said , I HATED Mon Guerlain but I forced myself to wear it and it’s ok now! Not a favorite but I do wear it... 😆 I must be an Angel girl because Alien is a big no no. But I love the Eau Extraordinaire flanker. What does that make me? A Bi-Mugler? 😆😆😆
You are ambimugulous 🤣🤣I got so scandal!!! Love the opening.,. I think the pee from the honey is starting to develop through 😩 will keep you posted- so far, delicious!
@@mariacollettlife pee?! 😆 it’s not an easy one to wear. Scandal by night is the one I’d like to try...
Hi Maria! I hated Black Orchid, to me it smells like wilted flowers in a funeral home 🤢. The dry down of Hypnotic Poison is straight up pee on me, not the sexy bomb that other reviewers make it out to be (same thing with CH Good Girl, loved the opening and hate the dry down). I love Light Blue though, it’s one of my fav for summer 💙
I love sniffing light blue as long as it’s not on myself!! 😜
Finakly someone who cant stand Armani Si !! I thought i was tripping or needed to give it a chance cuz literally every other YT channel iwnatch says its the greatest thing ever !! So yeah i get u
We are a rare breed 😜💕
I can’t stand it either
😅😅😅...that black orchid description. I don't get it either. I always smell it when I go shopping and I just don't get it...the velvet one is way better and I got that one. Enjoyed this
Isn’t it interesting through that you want to keep sniffing it? I’m the same way!! 🤣🤣
I really hate Libre too 🙈 Mon Guerlain is one of my favorite designer fragrances though ❤️😊
It's so lovely!
