A 39 minute Lauren perfume video? Oh yes 💖 I am going to save it to watch with a nice snack

I live in Canada, where a lot of popular niche houses don’t have brick and mortar stores. So when I was recently in Brighton, where they have a Penhaligon’s, I dragged my friend in there and had them spray nearly their entire collection on tester strips and every naked piece of skin I could offer lol She told me later she felt so guilty for not buying something and having the salesperson keep spraying…I was like Oh No Not Me! It’s not coming from their personal bottle, and I’m sure most people are too intimidated to even go in the store (they actually had a velvet rope at the open front door, we had to wait for someone to let us in, and we got the look up and down beforehand LOL), so I’m sure they’re happy to talk to anyone who has passion for fragrance

I had a coupon for $10 off a single item plus 2 pairs of Vicky's underwear if you buy anything. So I felt like I got Autumn Shore for free. It's the best!

I really loved the Dossier Genderless Collection, and would love to hear your long-form take on the new collection!! 🍾🥂🍹🥃

I blind bought a travel size of Burberry Goddess and I’m really enjoying it. Definitely more lavender than I thought but full bottle worthy!

Father Figure… I’m in love! It’s my new favorite, perfect for transitioning into fall 🍃

Is long lasting?

@dmac6704

I want to know if it’s long lasting too because I’m between this and Dyptique Philosikos for fall ❤

I’ve tried so many from Sphinx and they all lean toward candle for me, especially Horchata, it smells so good but as a candle!

I love the Hempz Sugared Banana! It smells so good! I love bananas and anything banana flavored or scented in general so I’m DEF looking forward to your banana video!! I wish Tree Hut would come out with a banana scrub omg that would be so good 😊🤤

I recently got quite a few perfumes. I went wild and picked up some long time wishlist items with a couple newness things: 1. Kilian Apple Brandy 2. Kilian Straight to Heaven 3. Replica Whispers in the Library 4. SNIF Crumb Couture 5. Versace Pour Homme 6. Marc Jacobs DOT 7. Montale Intense Cafe 8. Mancera Aoud Vanille (montale’s sister brand with the same amazing performance) I also bought a whole bunch of decants from twisted lily, the perfumed court, and fragrancenet. I got to try some new stuff to me like Zoology, The House of Oud, baccarat 540, cloud, Ellis après, etc. I really love a mix of masculine and feminine fragrances depending on my mood/vibe/outfit and sometimes the weather. Only other that are on my immediate wishlist are AKRO Awake and AKRO Bake. I’m waiting for Bake in the 30ml to come back in stock on the USA website so I can buy them together.

Fave Victoria's Secret scent that I wear almost daily is Coconut Milk and Rose. If I am not wearing it I am wearing TPH Vanilla Tuberose. These two are very similar but different. And neither triggers my severe Asthma. Great video!❤

Oooo very interested to hear how that pistachio one is once you wear it more

when a company wants you to buy 50 of something to get a discount, its always a good deal .its basically like putting free money in your bank account and then getting all 10 items they offer without having to think about choosing!!!! (for legal reasons this is a joke)

Yes do a speakeasy dossier review!!

Yes to the Dossier Originals video if you’re up to it, please! I would watch a long form video of that, but I watch any video you post on either channel. ❤️ I have Golden Rum and Amber and Fresh Margarita and Lime. I thought of you when I smelled Golden Rum and Amber and was hoping you would get to try it! It is warm, cozy, and sweet. To me, it is a more pleasant and complex version of Ellis Brooklyn BEE (which I don’t love lol). Fresh Margarita and Lime is growing on me, but it is more of a clean, soap scent. I like citrus scents on me so I wanted more citrus.

I have the horchata one from Sphinx, which is really good. The pistachio one is next on my list. I’ve tried it and love it 😍

Burberry goddess Is right up your alley. It’s a amazing vanilla. It has 3 vanillas cacao, lavander, ginger. It’s so creamy and rich. It reminds me elish with kayali vanilla 28. It’s over priced though but omg it’s such a amazing vanilla.

VS and BBW actually spilt a couple years ago and are not owned by the same company anymore! ^_^

My Death and Floral order came in today and it was so worth the nearly month and a half wait. I got three rollerballs of some super foodie dessert scents and they're amazing. I got Vienna waits for you, the scent of you and foreign flowers, and the soft crunch of bread and bone. Definitely will consider a bottle when I finish then up.

Love Sphinx. There is a middle eastern youtuber named Aromatix who did a collab with Sphnix. I've gotten a few from them. The Horchata is a lovely fall perfume from Sphinx. Sooo yummy

Crème de Pistache sounds wonderful!

The new Burberry Goddess travel size perfume is $40!!! I couldn't believe it.

thanks for talking about creme de pistache... I was hoping to listen to more reviews on it. sounds nice.

Omg loved the video! It made me so excited to try some of my samples right away 😍🫶

your eye makeup is so cute!

Haven’t tried Sphinx yet but want to try out the Horchata, Heavenly Lilies, and Damascena so badly!

I purchased a few travel sizes as well as sample sets today during the Sephora friends and family sale. I’ve been taking notes from your videos and I can’t wait to get these scents to my nose 😂😂

Oh gosh I LOVE some of the Louboutin fragrances 🤩🤩🤩 Loubirouge is soooo pretty, and Loubiprince will definitely be in my collection within a year!

New video yay!!! I was going to mention of you love the Kayali Pistachio Fragrance that you would absolutely love Pistaché Body Cream! I got mine on amazon and the lasting power and the cream and fragrance combined is so good! Obsessed ❤

@@kara8911 what do you mean by start? When I first spray it? If that's what you mean, then it's a bit citrus-y at the start with the bergamot and bitter orange at the top. But on me, it dries down to smell like creamsicles. I think that on me that orange mixes with the vanilla and cashmere woods in the base and reads as creamsicles on my skin. I haven't read reviews of anyone else saying that but that's how it smells on me.

I LOVE L’eau papier and bought it second hand, and I also love oil perfumery’s inspired by dupe!

Super fun video! I bought a bunch of the Sephora favorites perfume sets that are out, even though they arent nearly as good of a deal as they once were 😬

right now i’m saving up to buy la douceur de siam by dusita. it’s so expensive but wow, the most amazing white floral i’ve ever tried. super indolic but addicting

I picked up a travel size of Commodity's Gold expressive from Ipsy. I'm very excited to get my nose on it.

I am in love with the Rosie. I swear it's my signature right now. Ever since I watched you in your older review on it, I was obsessed. I wanted to get it just because it has Rose in there. Overall, I think I love the clean girl esthetics right now. Love it.

I just got a sample of Sugardaddy from the link you posted, and a sample of Nishane Fan Your Flames. I’m excited to try them 😁

I loved Escada's Rockin' Rio back in the early 2000's, very fruity and fun

Pls do make a dossier speak easy line review! I purchased the margarita and lime one and fell in love with it!!! I wanna try the other ones but don’t want buy them until I’ve seen a review on them! Thank you in advance!

Hey Lauren, Shop Miss A has new body scrubs and body butters! Strawberry, Vitamin C, Cotton Candy, Watermelon and Peach Raspberry. The scents remind me of Tree Hut scrubs, I wonder if they're dupes!

I have strawberry kiss by sphinx. Im going buy the pistachio one now.😊

please update us on the sphinx fragances love your videos

My favorite Victoria's Secret body mist is Bare Vanilla Frosted!! It was limited edition and I honestly don't remember how many years ago it was but I still have a small amount left just to use as reference in finding a similar scent. It's bare vanilla but *better* and with mint notes

I bought all of the new VS body mists minus the ones with rhe coffee and the pepper notes. I just don't care for them. I also went a little ham at the BBW fragrance mist sale. I bought 8. 🤦‍♀️ Would love to see your haul!

I’m a huge diptyque fan! Out of the hundreds of scents I own Orpheon is my most complimented. It’s a beautiful woodsy white floral and I could swear there’s something milky to it. I definitely recommend it if you haven’t tried it already 😊

My favorite VS body mist is discontinued, it's called Solar Sands. It smells like vanilla, amber and pencil shavings or saw dust. I love it.

I have made a list of perfumes you've convinced me to buy.

Man, I wish I had Escada at my Ross! The best thing I found last time I went was a Kaja lip gloss. 😂

As someone who had Ipsy but has been unsubbed for a year +, I still get their sale notices and can log in anytime to look. I have purchased Commodity Milk+ and several foundations lately.

I still have my Victoria's Secret body spray from 15 years ago lol I like Forbidden Fantasy

Ive never tried any Victoria Secret mists or perfumes. Not sure why. I think they're just not my vibe. Bath and Body Works recently had their $4.95 full size body mist sale so of course I picked up a few (Leaves, Dark Kiss, Midnight Spell, and Champagne Apple and Honey)! Also, I recently got Britney Spears' new perfume Jungle Fantasy. I wish it had been and EDP and not an EDT but I still do love it. It's a really beautiful scent. Not too sweet and not too floral. And its different enough from Fantasy to justify my purchase. I also recently got Guess Bella Vita and omg what a beautiful scent that is too. I have the Hempz Sugared Banana lotion too and love it.

I love you L!

Cherry in Japan smells great mixed with Gucci bamboo or cloud

I've been trying to educate myself on fragrance by watching all your videos, so I was excited for the alert for a new video. 😂 Still trying to find my own tastes but I've picked up Skin by Clean Reserve, Spun Sugar by the same. I tried Mod Vanilla in store and it choked me out and I thought I hated it for 4 hours, then it dried down and I loved it. So confusing. Lol. I picked up Mod Vanilla and Mod Blush during the 5x the points Ulta event. Don't know if they will end up being presents or not. Im not sure if i like either of them. Appreciate all your help wading thru it all. Love and peace ❤

There is a channel on KZread called "The Perfume Guy" and he does video almost everyday. He only spends 60-90 seconds on each fragrance but is able to convey a lot in that short time. He lives in San Francisco and has around 4,000 fragrances in his collection. His channel is very good to watch if you want to learn more about fragrance. 🌸🏵🌺

First of all, your top is beautiful and I love the colors

Lauren! I would love for you to get your nose on the new Burberry Goddess. I am so obsessed with it and I thinkkk it may be because it reminds me of the old BBW Country Chic! It’s much more elevated ofc, but the nostalgia factor makes it an instant favorite for me. I feel like you may be one of the only people on earth who can corroborate this for me hahaha. Hoping to hear your thoughts soon💘

I bought it and will be doing a review asap!! I haven’t tried Country Chic unfortunately cause I would love to give you my thoughts on how similar they are other wise!! Goddess is very good though!! Super excited to share more of my thoughts!! ❤️

Have you tried the Bananas Brûlée from Daukens?? It's photo realistic banana runtz candy scent....would go perfect with your banana body wash

Thanks for another interesting video, Lauren. I recently bought Philosikos by Diptique, and I love the scent, but I don't think I'm buying more from this brand. The scent is so lovely, but after about an hour I can barely pick it up. I have it for about a month now, and I'm already halfway through my 50 ml bottle. And that is while still using other perfumes too! So that's not going to be a repurchase, as much as I love it. How is the longevity with L'eau Papier? I kind of lost confidence in the brand as a whole.

I just got some Dua fragrances. Chocolatey Jasmine charm, milky coconut magic and pistachio gelato are all original fragrances that are yummy gourmands. Plumlicious casino royal therapy is their take on a tri blend of dupes of plum japonais fron tom ford with bacracat rouge and musk therapy. It's also super yummy with a bit of masculine note in the opening but it dries down sweet and spicy. I recently got w****y fron commodity when they were discounting the archives line. It's a bit more masculine than i like. I think i can wear it if i spray something sweeter over the top, but I'm a bit bummed it's not a love for me.

Question from the skylar scent club any thoughts on ones I think were in scent club, Lavender hills, Amber dunes and green awakening?

I’ve bought 6-7 perfumes directly from Dime Beauty, including 2 Dans Les Bois ( love that one, so much!), and never had one that was broken. I live all the way over in Missouri. I think the problem with your breakage issues must be either Ulta’s packing or your local post office.

hey there. so I have also have the 4ml samples of LOUBIMAR and LOUBIROUGE. Both are nice. Still cannot decide which is more my style though. I like them both, however, they aren't loves. Anne Lauren said in a video that Loubirouge reminded her of Rouge malachite and that is what intriguied me to try a sample. I don't find them very similar. Maybe a touch on the overall vibe? I still much prefer Rouge Malachite though. Loubimar seems stronger , has more presence on me than Loubirouge. Btw, ebay has sample of many of the Louboutin fragrances.

Father figure is on my wishlist for sure. Is it more figgy than Hanami since they’re both from Phlur

Can u review Dime and Snif from Ulta

It has to be my nose but I was very underwhelmed by Father Figure. I smelled it at Sephora and it smelled like laundry detergent to me. However, I just received a sample from DS & Durga Debaser and it smells the way I imagined Father Figure would smell: rounder, creamier, more grounded than other fig scents like Philosykos or Nouvelle Vague.

Been searching Fragrantica by notes for years....notes trend, so it has become easier to find fragrances with fig. It didn't used to be the case. Currently bitter notes are coming on trend v. how sweet have been. It is like with Art, you have to like what you like, what works with your skin. Store your fragrances, keep out of the sun, and it will be there when the trend comes back. Perfume prices have gotten off the chain. Some of the niche fragrances are just junk, some are top tier. I will pay for a "nose", but I won't settle for just "ok" at Chanel+ prices. It would be great if you could mention price range on the high end, as well as "this is only a $30 fragrance, so I don't expect..." Hempz brings back the banana every couple of years, it seems. Thanks for the video, always interesting to see what companies will be getting my dollars :).

Thanks for great video. I love Ellis Brooklyn, Apres, sand. Sun sdj bela flora pink/ . they don’t give me headaches… fresh & light❤ is there a good fragrance / mists subs once a month that you like?? Thank you to any sub ideas!! for inexpensive poor lady 😂

How does Amber Musk compare to some like like Reserve Skin? I’ve been looking for a skin type scent but with good longevity

Oh l agree about the baby’s head, wow

I have also been very into the light airy skin scents for wearing to bed and also in the office. Is it just me or is Leau Papier similar to not you baby but so much better?? NYB gives me baby powder vibes which Leau Papier does not have and gives me the same skin scent with mimosa which is so refined and unique with the steamed rice note. I smelled it at a fragrance store and just couldn’t walk away from it so I bought it. Also loving the father figure but the vanilla is a bit too sweet. I’m enjoying my travel but won’t be buying. A full bottle
