    I do have a huge smile on my face, especially after hearing the last Grandma story! Your lists are so enjoyable; there's usually a surprise on them. I am intrigued by Beautiful (which I may have smelled back in the day) and Owari. Love the shirt! The color looks great on you.

    • @Persolaise

  • @danielpaterson6332
    @danielpaterson6332 Před 4 lety +3

    Great list Persolaise. A few of my favourite scents here, particularly the Hermes, Acqua di Parma and Guerlain. A few others that work for me are Pomelo Paradis from Atelier Cologne, Limoneros from Arquiste, Cologne Bigarade Frederic Malle and Dior Homme Sport the 2008 version.

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 4 lety +1

      Ahhh... the 2008 Dior Homme Sport! I still have a few drops somehow. Absolutely loved that one.

    Hola from Argentina!! Love the title HAPPY PERFUMES. Many many thaks for your videos, they are just so lovely to watch. Perfumes are just a beautyful way to spend life.

  • @rickytomatoes
    @rickytomatoes Před 3 lety +3

    If anyone should make a lime cologne, it should be either Acqua Di Parma, or Xerjoff. I also feel that Prada could pull it off, with their mastery of neroli and white florals.

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 3 lety +1

      I’d love a strong lime from AdP.
      Many thanks for watching.

    Loved your video! Happy scents are just what we need right now. For me, happy scent often rhymes with summertime. So here are my favorites:
    Intense Tiare/Montale
    Cologne/État libre d’Orange
    Amari di Sicilia/Bois 1920
    Bucoliques de Provence/L’Artisan Parfumeur
    Fire Island/Bond no.9
    Soleil d’Italie/Mancera

    Incredible shirt! One of the women's "happy" parfum for me is Yves Saint Laurent's "In Love Again". Stunning scent.

    • @Persolaise

    You're making yourself out to be older than you are with these granddad jokes, Mr. Persolaise 😂. Enjoyed this video. 🌹

  • @ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293

    Oh there are a great number of fragrances which I have immediately positive first reactions to as soon as they're sprayed. But being instantly lifted and feeling happy, with a smile coming so easily to me upon first inhalation? That's rare. What makes me instantly smile and just feel joyful and light? I'm going to go with Une Nuit Magnetique by The Different Company. I was shocked by my love-at-first-sniff experience with this one because it's not the genre of fragrance I normally care much for, the big fruity-floral extravaganza. But this one is the happiest most obnoxious, unapologetic homage to the feminine flamboyance of the 1980s and 1990s. I love it. It DOES make me smile and feel happy. In fact, it makes me yearn to be able to jump into the Delorian and bring back all the knitwear with sewn-in shoulder pads I can find, all the white stilettos, all the Ungaro jackets and YSL costume jewellery. I would step in and do a good turn for Paulina Porizkova. I would fight the temptation to shop and bring back the most anachronistic treasures I could hunt down. Wouldn't everybody like to go back in time just to smell all the fragrances in their first formulation? All the lost classics. Just think of all the vanity projects launched by a million z-grade American celebrities and obscure European entertainers-- the forgotten pantheon of astonishingly awful celebrity fragrances! I'm getting goose bumps. Think of how many are lost in the mists of time! Thus is the power of Une Nuit Magnetique. 🥰

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 2 lety +1

      @@Persolaise I'll be able to tell if it affected you as strongly as it did me, just by seeing what kind of shirt you're wearing in the video where it's mentioned. Remember the old Escada fashion pages in Vogue? 😆Woah. I'm ready for anything. I'm quite shocked that Luca Turin gave it 4 out of 5 stars too!

  • @Prague4Introverts
    @Prague4Introverts Před 4 lety +2

    My favorite happy fragrances are Hermes Eau des Merveilles and Sublime Balkiss by The Different Company. Also, while this may not technically qualify as a perfume, but Cellular Energizing Water from La Prairie has an amazing, uplifting, and persistent fragrance.

    • @Persolaise

    Love your videos! If you can get your hands on it, LUSH CELEBRATE body spray. Relatively inexpensive but a burst of citrus happiness. I drench myself with this before going to work in a hospital as citruses are generally inoffensive and uplifting. It has been getting me through quarantine and work!

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 4 lety

    A happiness perfume for me is Champagne du bois, by Sonoma Scents Studio. I smile every time I smell it. It was a signature for a few years, then the perfumer got sick and had to let go of her business. I was gutted. Someone bought the company and it is back, but I get the feeling that it is not quite the same. I love it still, but I don't thing the dry down turns as rich as the original.
    It opens bright and fizzy, and moves into something sensual. At least it did on my skin.
    I am so saddened when beautiful formulations are tampered with.

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 3 lety

      Yes. Perfumery reminds us, in more ways than one, that nothing lasts forever.

    @MrCountrySteak Před 4 lety +1

    Arquiste makes several scents just for a hotel in Mexico City - Essencia De El Palacio Viteveres may be the best lime/vetiver fragrance I own. These are not released for sale in the US and are not on Arquiste's website. Also check out No. 31 made by Arquiste for J.Crew and now available only through Arquiste's website. An incredible dark Vanilla scent, darker than Architects Club but just as good.

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 4 lety

      Thanks for watching and writing. I remember trying the J Crew ones years ago. Hopefully, one day I’ll be able to track down the Palacio scents.

    So sorry to have missed your live, a very enjoyable video. I wish I could articulate and speak as eloquently as you do Sir. My videos see me recycle boring words far too often 😂.
    . . And now I need to sample this Pamplelune!
    My sunny happy fragrance is Fico de Amalfi, though it's far too fleeting.

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 4 lety

      Thank you so much for the kind words. And yes, keep your nose out for Pamplelune.

    I love Orange Star on someone else's skin. On me the citrus turns quite soapy almost upon landing. I am not going to say it's more of a masculine scent ........sacrilege! Nope I won't say it, not even thinking it 🤭🤫!!!!!! Great video, thanks again. I am catching up, only 4 months behind now :).

    @alimaalikhan Před 4 lety +1

    Have you tried MiXte by Parfums de Nicolai? Grapefruit on top, but not harsh - morphs into other citrus notes and a creaminess. The citrus somehow manages to endure throughout the drydown - not an easy feat. Longevity is quite long, not that that is too important.

    • @Persolaise
      @Persolaise  Před 4 lety +1

      Yes, I did try it, but only when it first came out. I haven’t smelt it for a while.
      Thanks for reminding me of it. And for watching 😊
