    Bang on how you described Carioca Heart “reminds me of” blend of Stephan Humbert Lucas and TT! This scent is not as sweet or mango-y as tons of others describe it as. You actually pay attention and describe scents honestly. I very much appreciate this.

    • @VeronicaSays
      @VeronicaSays  Před měsícem +3

      Thank you. 💖 I'm glad you agree and understand the reference. This is not a light and fun summer scent. It IS wonderful, but not as people described.

    Veronica, you hit the nail on the head regarding Carioca Heart. I like it but I'm sure it's worth all the hype. I blind bought it as soon as it came back in stock based a couple of CZcamsrs. I did get 10% off but I do not think it is worth full price in my opinion.

    • @VeronicaSays

    Good morning Veronica 💕💕
    About the new Kayali…Listen to me…Let me tell you something!😂 I bought a travel spray. My first thought on first spray was:Are we smelling the same thing ???? I got no bubblegum, no candy, no sweetness..at all! What I did get was ‘that’ note that I get from Mancera/Montale fragrances! I think you picked it up as some kind of earthiness. I washed it off. Being a glutton for punishment, I tried it again the next day!😁 This time I smelled some bubblegum. I decided to wait it out. ‘The’ note hung around for over an hour. Then it smelled very nice, almost beautiful! I just can’t wait as long as it takes for that note to disappear! I wanted to love it because I love Yum Pistachio so much. It’s a no for me and I was so disappointed 😢
    I haven’t experienced any of the other fragrances you mentioned.
    Your experience with the Creed Queen of Silk slapping you around was hilarious!😂 😂😂😂
    I hope you’re enjoying your weekend!💕

    • @VeronicaSays
      @VeronicaSays  Před měsícem +1

      Hi Leah! 💖🥰 I can see how the Kayali could he off putting for folks who don't care for that "thing" in it. I get it. Thanks for sharing your experience with it and for laughing along with my Queen of Silk drama 😆😆😆

    Thank you for this honest and funny review! The Queen demands attention. I received a sample and it will be a pass for me. I bought a sample of blue madeleine and I initially didn’t like it. Will have to go back and try it again. I am intrigued with 14 Isla Coco , wavechild and Tilia , will be getting samples. I recently received the sample set of Private mood and berrylicious to me smells like watermelon. even if it doesn’t have watermelon in the note description it completely reminds me of the watermelon rind when you first spray into it and then as it dries down I get the sweet edible part of the watermelon. I love it. Seriously thinking it is full bottle worthy.

    Hello Veronica, love you and your channel❤❤❤and I agree with you about Carioca, I've heard some influencers describing it as the most creamy, smooth mango fragrance. And I was so enamored by that beautiful description that I almost blind bought it, but it was sold out. I ended up buying 5ml decant and imagine my surprise when I smelled it and found no cream just that sharp boozy sweetness. I am still testing this perfume and being very careful not to overspray. For me its very unusual fragrance. Recently I tried Egyption Mango by Be Layered and I find it really creamy and fresh and not sweet at all. I would love to hear your opinion about some of new releases from that house. Thank you for your heard work and especially your humor❤

    It’s not paint, it’s a blue madelaine obviously from white chocolate with some blue food coloring that’s being dipped into a cup of tea.

    Hi Veronica! I adore Carioca Heart , and your description was spot on... you have to love rum,for sure. I've been wearing it here in the daytime ( but not to work, Lord no). And it works! We shall see if it is too heavy in the dry down. For realistic fruit fragrances, I have been enjoying the house of Chabaud. They have a fragrance, Caprice de Julie, which is said to have a realistic watermelon note. 🍉 Maybe try a sample of that? I love their gourmand fragrances and Caprice de Julienne. Niche house, reasonably priced, BUT not great longevity. Still a win in my book.

Oh Blue Madeleine has me interested - it’s def in my wheelhouse 🤔. Haha the face you made when you smelled that Creed 🤣🤣 I was able to get a sample of Tilia: I like it, but not really sure it’s a FB for me. To me it’s nostalgic, reminds me of childhood summers in the 70’s in NJ: unlocked doors (parents had no idea where we were), scabby knees, riding our bikes and playing in the woods.
