Its interesting to me that Aromatic, Oceanic, and Gourmand are not considered their own sections of the fragrance wheel

how are you not more popular on KZread... beats me🤷‍♀️❤

@@SokiLondonwhat perfume did you say at 10:48? Thank you.

You are sooooo sweet, I think of cotton candy every time I watch your videos, sweet and colourful and fluffy, all in a good way 🤗🤗

This is one of the best explanations I've ever seen about the differences between the categories- I've always wanted to learn this and want to learn more! - also what does creamy mean? And can you do a video on what certain notes smell like - Heliotrope, Tonka vs vanilla, aldehydes etc

I’m really new to the perfume world but I think oriental fragrances are my fave 😊

Im new to your channel and I've gone through 5 videos in one sitting!! Love how you articulate these scents. Very informative!

Thank you Soki! This helps me out a ton. I only shop from home for perfume because there are no big malls in my town so it's always blind buys. Thank you for breaking this down in an easy way to remember, love all your perfume videos!

This is a very helpful video. I've been wondering about layering with some scents to improve a miscalculation in a certain perfume purchase. Too sharp of a scent from one cologne and trying to temper it with another. Thanks for all your videos! Love your explanations.

Ooh, I love soft oriental, oriental, fruity, chypre, and every type of floral is lovely to me. I love feminine woodsy notes in fragrances too, but not sure if I qualify for liking that scent category.

Love your videos so much. Short descriptions with all the important notes explained in a jiffy yet sooo informative 💜

I love your videos! I found you recently when I was researching Chanel No 5 and got hooked on your videos. I’m a certified Sommelier and smelling wine is very similar to how you describe layers of scents in perfume. You’ve opened a whole new interest for me into perfumes! I’ve purchased some of the perfumes you’ve recommended and can’t thank you enough! Keep up the awesome work! Much love from America 💕

Wow what an amazing message. Thanks so much! It’s lovely to share my passion! Hope you enjoy your new fragrances x

Fruity floral is my go-to but I’ve been loving scents like Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet and all of the La Vie Est Belle range! I’m expanding my palette but still tend to stick with youthful and feminine scents (I can’t handle too aquatic, fresh, woody or spicy scents)

Good breakdown of the fragrance wheel, loved this👌

It depends on what type of sweet. Fruity sweet with fruits then gourmand ones more towards oriental :)

I love fruity, fresh, tropical scents. Peach is my go to. It may sound weird but the smell of peach makes me feel clean and soft. It even matches my personality.

My favorites are the pure floral and citrus categories 🌸💐🍊 That was a really helpful breakdown of fragrance categories, especially for the oriental fragrances, which I'd never heard of as a category before your videos. Thanks and great video, as always!

This is such a great video! I would enjoy any similar videos where you help us beginning fragrance hobbists learn the hows and whys behind our favorite perfumes! I subscribed recently after watching a few videos and finding a scent sister! As you name some of your favorite perfumes, more often than not I'm like "me too, same here"! Love your channel 😍

This was an excellent explanation of the fragrance families, especially because of the examples you gave. My current signature scent is YSL's Libre EDP. Even though it is categorized as an Aromatic/Fougere because of the lavender, it also has floral notes, citrus notes, and the spice of vanilla. On my skin the notes blend really well. The only problem is I can only spray one or two sprays because it is such a beast.

Thank you for doing this. My nose likes a lot of scents. I am all over the fragrance wheel, I like Mon Guerlain, MFK Rouge 540, Robert Graham’s Fortitude, Byredo 1996, Parfums de Marley Delina and Jessica Simpson Fancy Love. Sometimes it depends on what my head can take. Some perfume gives me headaches, others go sour on my skin. I just don’t know... today I wore Fendi and noticed it’s sharpness for the first time in the years I’ve owned it.

Very enjoyable video👍 I think I like all categories if their done well 😊. But sweet florals are a safe win for me x

Such an amazing video ❤️❤️

Thank you so much for such an informative video. the moment you gave examples of floral scent ( j’dore and Daisy) I knew I’m a floral gal, those are my fav 2 fragrance and I often use these two as a reference when I explain my fragrance preference to the sales person at fragrance counter. I try to like aromatics scent but I just couldn’t, maybe during a rainy season, aromatics scent would be more bearable for me ? I’m not a huge fan of oriental scent but I love hypnotic poison , there is just something in the juice draw me into this perfume, I always spray one spray instead of my normal 3 sprays, because it can get quite overpowering

Very helpful. Thank you!

Excellent course ! I think this subject deserves yet another treatment with more up to date examples ! Well done video, though !

This was such a fantastic explanation of the fragrance wheel particularly with examples of perfumes on the market 👏 👍! My mum's mid 70's and used to wear youth dew the bottle took me right back....In my younger days I worked for Alive Promotions & Marketing in Australia on the Oscar de La Renta counter in their David Jones 😀 💜

I loved this video! I think I'm more of a water girl but I love gourmands, fruity, floral and woodsy. I do not like oud or anything too strong and bitter. I think I can find a perfume in each range that I'd love though because I'm such a complex person. I like a little of everything. Lol

The queen of explain perfumes ♥️

I think my preference is very diverse. But my top fave and kinda like a go-to scent is a combo of fruity or soft floral. But basically I choose notes based on my mood, the weather, the occasion.

This is so interesting. Thanks so much! I would love to hear a review on the Bottega Veneta line of fragrances. I just love the original version. 💕💕💕

I love fruity musky powdery floral. I like leather scent too like the original Bottega Veneta.

I like Oriental! I am obsessed right now with a tobacco rose leather scent called Black Stone and a very sweet amber smell. The one that's subtle that I would wear everyday is a green tea scent mixed with spice flavors. It smells like sunshine on skin. Thanks for this video!

Can you make a video explaining in depth the differences between the types of florals, types of fruity notes, etc?

What category would you put perfumes with coffee and vanilla notes?

Hi , I'm searching for you're rewiew of l'instant from Guerlain, the new relase .I would like to now what are you thinking about it.Greetings from Croatia 👋👋.

I love gourmand particularly cupcake, marshmallow, whipped cream fragrances followed by fruity and citrus scents. Florals are okay as long as it’s not too powdery. Absolutely cannot stand oud and woods scents 🤣

Wouldn't the light blue be in the citrus group? I always smell mandarine and lemon, while in the aquatic i would put the Acqua di gioia by GA. Don't you think?

Hi Soki, where would you group molecular based perfumes like molecule 01 or another 13?
