#FragranceReviewer #NichePerfumes
I spayed on Jasmin et Cigarette at my hairdresser here in Austin, and fell in love. Sent me down a path of not just EDLO catalog but also wanting to learn to do perfumery myself!
Looooved hearing your thoughts on ELDO's offerings! Sounds like maybe they need to find a solid balance between unique conceptualizations and functionality in their scents? But they also have a reputation to uphold as being rebellious/free and unconventional so something "trendy" doesn't land well either 🤷♀
I would sample Spice Must Flow just for the Dune reference but Like This is probably more my vibe🍁
I have now collected eight full bottles from ELDO. As a fraghead I fancied myself a Rien and Fils de Dieu girl and for practical everyday wear I actually thought I would reach for Hermann and Fat Eelctrician the most. But dents don't lie! I am surprised to say my most worn is Une Amourette. Surprised because I was really on the fence about it but then I snapped it up at an unbeatable price and haven't looked back since. It just works magic for me at the office. My coworkers compliment me incessantly. I'm not sure if it's the Akigala wood note in there or what but it's nice to have an easy reach. Any thoughts on that one? I'm also pretty ambivalent about Putain des Palaces but my husband chases me around the house when I wear it so there's another unexpected winner. Love these slow-burn house reviews of yours, please keep them coming. Cheers from Frankfurt!❤
ELDO is perhaps one of my most purchased brands just because most of their offerings are on the cheaper side of niche.
Currently I’ve amassed full bottles of Hermann, Eau de Protection (which is my current favourite), You or Someone Like You, Fils de Dieu, The Afternoon of a Faun, The Ghost in the Shell, Rien, I’m Trash, Jasmin et Cigarette, Yes I Do and La Fin du Monde.
Great selection!!!
Great review of the brand!
ELdO's aesthetic speaks to me like few other perfume houses do and, while I don't love all of their fragrances, I have and adore Eau de Protection, Jasmin et cigarette, Rien, and Experimentum Crucis.
Exit the King was not a love at first sniff but now I find the lily-of-the-valley, immortelle and oakmoss just addictive.
Also, I've realised I can't live without Attaquer le soleil Marquis de Sade, Hermann a mes cotés paraissait un hombre, and The Afternoon of a Faun. 😏😁
I really was let down by she was an anomaly. On paper, the notes all sounded right like I might enjoy this. But then when I smelled it, I was like, "Wow, what a nothing burger"
Fat Electrician was the total opposite for me. I didn't think I would like it from the description, but after trying a sample, I fell in love with it.
What are you highlights and lowlights from the brand?
I actually quite like Rien Intense Incense even if it's a STRONG one. I only spray once on my wrists and I'm good for hours. I especially like it at night. The opening is a bit too much for me but once it settles down, I love it. To me, it's like an abandonned church where nature took back its place. The incense is strong at the beginning but after 1 hour, the perfurme becomes more green, aromatic and earthy. It has quite the evolution on the skin and I appreciate this perfurme as a work of art. I wouldn't wear it to the office though haha
i have a similar recipe for the original Rien - it is quite shocking at first, but it does has that smth special at the drydown!
ELdO & Serge Lutens are my favourites in the perfume world ❤
DIVIN' ENFANT, FAT ELECTRICIAN, ARCHIVES 69 & VIERGES & TORREROS are my ALL day scents.
ENCENS ET BUBBLEGUM is my scent that everybody loves instantly, although it is hardcore niche 😅
wow my friend you got exquisite taste!!
Thank you so much for going into the backstory and your honesty. I smelled divine infant and one other years ago and swore off the brand. Now I know I probably won’t ever bother trying anything else 😂
hehe, you will see in the comments - some people wear them affortlessly and with much success. They are unique in their own way, and their nudy gourmands are my faves :)
I have yet to try anything from ELDO so I really appreciate this huge overview in order to decide what I need to try 🙏
they are a polarizing brand, though in a different way that Serge Lutens: )) Anything captured your attention from the video?
@@MariaMeliora yes, the more friendly sounding ones 🤗

Love Like this ❤ and nothing else. But very interesting and exciting
I must try I Don't get me wrong baby and I am trash...
What about Putain des Palace? Controversial scent.. Awful beginning but beautiful after 15 minutes
I tried fat electrician, hermann, putain, marquise, faun,like this, rien and they are all easygoing, witha a note that rien is my leather jacket, alternative happening scent, love it, and secretions magnifique wich everyone is stunned how beautiful bubble it makes. I expected much more controversial scents, but also i havent tried a lot of them 😁
Btw, i love your chanell, it has become the only one i watch♥️
oh wow look at you wearing avant-garde like pajamas! Cool beans!!
I'm very often stunned and left scratching my head as why people find some perfumes challenging🤷 all i mentioned are wearable, not sure i would buy a fb except rien tough. There are so many complex, beautiful scents out there
I tried the discovery set and..Their fragrances are great by themselves but make EXCELLENT base frags.
I bought a bottle of Fat Electrician. Pair it with Versace Dreamer and it turns into something even better.
I also bought Herman. Great by itself but pair it with Lalique Por Homme and it's divine. I also pair it with Versace Eros Flame. Amazing combo.
Clean Suede. Also great by itself but pair it with a drop of cypress oil or Lalique and it's even better.
My personal favorite that you cannot pair with anything is La Fin Du Monde. That is my Autumn frag.
The only one I really detested was Rien. On me it smells like a dirty old hippy threw up in a cold fireplace. Just vile on me. Ash, vomit and incense you'd buy at a gas station.
Wow, you've got a real knack for layering scents! Your combos sound intriguing-I'll have to try them out. And I totally get the Rien thing, it is truly odd. Sometimes a fragrance just doesn't mesh with our chemistry. Thanks for sharing your creative pairings!
Too true about Sephora. It's where I got to smell quite a few of them myself. Not my brand though. Je Suis un Homme and Afternoon of a Faun were probably the ones I resonated most with, but I never got a bottle of either. In fact I don't own anything from ELDO. Like I said, not my brand. But I am a big fan of the Dune novel series, so if anything I'd get Spice Must Flow just as a collector's piece. But I'm not a collector either so... 😂😭 Appreciate the massive overview Maria! ❤
oh indeed :((
I am laughing out loud by myself because of your marvellous descriptions on this marvellous brand 😅❤
awww i'm so happy you liked this vid!
Absolutely ❤
You asked for a decent lilac perfume. Cartier just released Pur Lilas Cartier. FYI
I saw!! I even stopped by their boutique a week ago - they didn't have it in stock yet
I have two from this brand. Une Amourette and Jasmin et Cigarette.
Jasmin sisters :))
I own a decant of GHOST IN THE SHELL: Like this also very much 😊
it is quite hip!
