It’s finally feeling like Spring and I’ve been loving Thameen, Blue Heart; Good Girl, Blush; Atelier De Ors, Choer Des Anges; Ellie Saab, Le Parfume to name a few. I don’t do trays but I transition my fall/winter to spring/summer. Enjoy the rest of May!

Hi my dear!!!!! Looking gorg (shocker! LOL) I love BARE so much! The bottle even reminds me of Bottega Veneta (the OG). I love Tamarindo so much, each time I wear it I love it more and more and I can't pick a prominent pineapple either. Tribeca is another love of mine, and OMG Heavenly!!!!!!! I remember the very first time I bought it was in a military base in Germany while visiting a friend of ours who was stationed there, and fell in love ever since!!!!!! I'm pretty sure they changed the formula because it's not quite the same anymore but still beautiful; my niece and daughter bought it for me not long ago after I shared with them the story 😍😍

Great video, V! (Can I call you V? 😘) I am so excited about wearing Tamarindo! I got a decant of it during the winter, and while I enjoyed the scent, it didn't jump out to me as that special. Fast forward to May and I went through all my decants to see what needed more attention. When I sprayed Tamarindo, I was instantly in love.... and stayed in love for the drydown, which is the tricky part with me. New spring/summer obsession! Ayesha recently decluttered it (Simply, not AITG), but it was sold on Mercari before I got a chance to grab it, dangit! 😆 I will say, I don't pick up on Coco M - but I don't particularly like it, so I'm glad. It bothers my brain, too. Lol!

I’m so happy you mentioned narcotic Venus. Not because I’ve smelled it before- but because my very first perfume I ever fell in love with so many years ago was the original Michael! People knew me by that scent. My fiends in high school were wearing Love Spell and Warm Vanilla Sugar and I was bathing in heavy white floral Michael. I was obsessed. So thank you! I’m definitely checking this one out! Also, I have to disagree about the bottles, I love the bottles haha. Anything with a marble or wooden cap I’m a sucker for. So much prettier and classier than an ugly pink Delina in my personal opinion. Please nobody come after me haha

Veronica, Union Square was my favorite Bond no 9 fragrance for over 10 years. Did you ever try that one? I’ve been wondering if High Line would be a good alternative since Union Square was discontinued. I love hearing you talk about that fragrance house. A work friend who grew up in NYC introduced it to me while I was in college and she spoke about Bond no 9 in a similar way. Hearing you talk about it in your videos makes me happy. I hope the month of June is a happy one for you!

Tamarindo definitely has Coco Mad vibes! From my notes: "first spray reminded me of Sofia (which is always compared to Coco Mad!) then coconut came into the mix. Later the coconut fades and smells more like Sofia again. Pretty but not the best performance" That is what I wrote about it! I've been meaning to give it another test drive but it's so hard to know what to try out each day between my collection and hundreds of samples!! 😫😅 good problem to have lol 😉

Now I'm really curious about Tamarindo by Memo. Same happened to me before buying Sherwood, I kept seeing and reading comments that it was light, airy, fresh. Now that I have it I can tell it's none of that. It's actually kinda thick in the air, with a great sillage, leaves a trail for hours and the smell is just gorgeous. Black currant, cashmere, lightly woody. It's a love for me.😊

Sherwood is lovely! Yes, our friend Patrick here generously gifted me a bottle and I treasure it! Give Tamarindo a sniff, especially if you like Coco Mademoiselle.

@@VeronicaSays I recently smelled PDM "Darcy" for the very first time and really liked it. It's in the gold bottle and smells like a fruity version of Coco Mademoiselle. About 4 months ago Aura fragrance had Darcy for 149.. I wish they still had it. 🫤
With weather between 55-81 Fahrenheit degrees during May, I gravitated towards different fragrances during the month. My most frequently used: Accento overdose, Stricnina, Flam, Ylang in Gold.

Thank you, my dear! Right back at ya! 😊
I thought I had commented on here🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️. I always look forward to the month end awards👌👌. Tamarindo was my first Memo blind buy and I was not disappointed💛💛. I didn’t manage to wear all my May fragrances however, my standout was Teriaq from Lattafa🌟🌟. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰.

Awwww thank you so much! I'm glad to know you love Tamarindo. 🥰🥰🥰
I had a really intense month. Ever since I was a teenager, the month of May, has always been the month with the most [change] in my life.. and this one was extra intense. But.. I made through and am grateful for the help I recieved. ❤ Hopefully I can change some of my ways so that my life can improve, hard times can be good if they teach you new ways of living. 🌹🌸🦋

Veronica you look beautiful without makeup. England 🇬🇧 was pretty miserable in May, i even used some of my coffee fragrances. I purchased yum pistachio gelato end of April, which i didn't like at first but now i found it quite addictif. ⭐⭐⭐

It was a rather gloomy depressing May for us too. But I'm that weirdo who likes cloudy overcast days. I was craving a lot of Iris scents this month. I’m growing Irises in my backyard currently. Coastal Carolina’s Dixie Iris and Naomi Goodsir’s Iris Cendre made the May list..... two very different styles of Iris but I happen to enjoy them both so much. I have a lot of friends and family with May birthdays so I wore a ton of “going out/special occasion” scents like Initio Side Effect, Alien, Dior Poison (yes, that is the OG Poison I’m talkin’ about!). Girl, they better not be going after our Alien!! And ofc I can't leave out my VS Very Sexy... one of my signatures and biggest compliment getters

I like overcast days too! We just has soooo many in May. You wore some amazing fragrances this month!
I love one umberella for two but cannot afford the original, so I got the dapper version, which I think is wonderful.

⭐️ Such a great variety! Very curious about the Floraïku house - their bottles and presentation is 10/10. I made a big dent in my bottle of Dolce Garden this month. It dropped into my top 10 for life after enjoying it in May ✨Also, I bought Celeste Giardini di Toscana from the Jomashop sale 🤗 It just arrived today and I love it!

I'm a bit embarassed to say I still have an original bottle of Gap Grass with a little under half still left. I honestly don't think it's safe to spray but just love removing the cap to smell the melon cucumber-y goodness - so nostalgic. lol 💚 I'll have to find my sample of Tamarindo again. I remember thinking it smelled like a deeper, greener version of Twilly d'Hermes, but can also envision what you're saying too... needs another visit! 🌟My May faves this month are a little all over-- been loving Kayali's Rock Sugar for my sweet reach. Also mixing a Gucci ii dupe + L'imperatrice for a fruity fresh vibe... and I just got a sample of Catherine Maladrino's Dream the other day. It has the most intoxicating pineapple/coconut opening and finishes with a clean musk. It has very intimate sillage/projection, but that opening... omggg. So good to see you Veronica! Your skin looks amazing :)
