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.

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!💕

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.

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.

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'm sure you're going to rock it and smell FABULOUS! 💖🥰

I follow you because you love Amarige back in the day (my signature scent in early 90s), so I figured we have similar taste in scents. Now, you're telling me you wore VS Body a lot. This was my mid to late 90's go-to scent. My late teen scent was LouLou (Cacherel) and Lauren (RL) in mid 80's...curious what yours was. I agree with your take on Elysium. I love Roja (my fave is discontinued Ti Amo). They are truly masterpieces! Elysium had a great opening, but the dry down was such a let-down. I love Tilia -- not for everyday, but when I want a strong scent to wear. It's lovely. I don't care for Carioaca Heart -- not sure if it's the guava note. Would prefer this as a summer candle. ...Yes, Queen of Silk was forcing me to love it. I thought I did at first (lol) and after a few minutes, I regretted spraying her.

Awww thank you! Yes I went through bottles of Body! Top bad it was discontinued. Sigh. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on some of these! 🥰🥰🥰

Cariocha Heart, I need to sample this one for sure

Definitely try first. It's very nice but not sweet and summery like folks said.

I totally feel your description of Queen of Silk! Too much of a rude approach to my nostrils 😂

Hi Veronica 👋, as always loved the video....Queen of Silk intro hilarious 😂 ...in my fragrance journey I've determined that I am a femine fragrance girl-so i even struggle with unisex scents, which leaves Creed a brand I truly struggle with...had an issue with Carmina too...but, I really really like Love in White.....have a safe 3 day!!!

I wish the Elysyum Pour Femme smelled as stunning as the look of the bottle. I almost blind bought that but got a scent sample from scent split. It def gave 2000s perfume vibes. Nothing major or different.

I agree with your review of wave child! I wish that watermelon note stayed throughout the fragrance. I wish I didn’t blind but it because I don’t like it after the watermelon note goes away and it goes away so quickly.

Me tooooo! Let me know if you find one.

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. Even Marie Salemagne says what inspired her : « The olfactory expression of a souvenir during an afternoon tea at the villa, blending madeleine and black tea. »

It looked like paint to me on first glance, and I was joking about that. I didn't assume that it was literal paint. You may have taken my words too seriously.

Hi Veronica. I do not know why but latest perfume releases have not intrigued me much. But I bought a few days ago Solaris from Penhaligons and the store sent me the box wrapped in paper sprayed with Blue Madeleine. Oh my god. I kept sniffing the paper like crazy. I need to buy a sample and test it on skin. You have me very intrigued with Tilia. I might test it myself.

@@VeronicaSays Solaris is citrus with orange blossom. I love it. Pity it is not so long lasting. About 4-5 hours on my skin. But it is perfect for the heat we have now .

We are “ Nosy” yes indeed! I was curious on ledda & blue Madeleine I knew I could count on you I was ready to buy IsLa Coco but I will pass because zingy citrus ain’t my thang lol

I thought it was blue paint too!! 😅🤣 I do want samples of the 2 new Atelier des Ors though I'm always so curious 👀 I just got a sample of Queen of Silk.. (girl I ordered a 1/4 ml dabber because it was so $$$ but they somehow sent me a 1ML SPRAY!!!!) 😃😃😃 Well she's a bit rude and strong I gotta agree but I actually think I REALLY REALLY like it!! 😱😆😍

Maybe when Wavechild matures, that opening will hang around double time🤞🏾! You might have to buy it to find out 😂. Vanilla Candy was not childish like I thought it would be. I was surprised. I sprayed Queen of Silk on my coat sleeve at the store. The next day I forgot about it and I was irritated by this smell and realized it was the Queen! I don't like it 😂
