Moim zdaniem "Air" od Kruk (tak, tej marki z biżuterią) pachną podobnie do Another 13. Ja musiałam pozbyć się kilku zapachów, które uwielbiałam, bo zawsze powodowały u mnie ból głowy (np. Oud Bouqet of Lancome Maison). Teraz mam już flakon Ormonde Woman i znalazłam sposób na ich noszenie, bez bólu głowy (psikam na dolną część pleców, hahhaha).

Your review is much more beautiful than Nomade EdP which I unwisely blind bought. I was sure I'd safe, because I loved or liked all its notes. I get no patchouli, oakmoss or amberwood, sadly. To me it was a straightforward cloying dose of raisins. I'll give it a full year, though. Maybe the sweetness turns more tolerable in cooler seasons.

I really enjoyed this one, as many others I especially enjoyed the "miss" part! :D I think between 20-30 mins videos mixed with shorter ones is just perfect. Sometimes you need a longer one to accompany you during lunch hour! My biggest hit this year was Nishane's Wulong Chá, a lovely citrus green tea scent that lasts the whole day. Some compare it to E Arden's green tea scent which I dont like because of emotional associations, but this is different..! Soo good. Biggest miss is probably Ganymede. Its captivating at first but it really overstays its welcome. Too strong, too overpowering and too... I don't know, it gives me claustrophobia in some way. Like Im locked inside a weird room or something... Anyways, keep up the good work, love your videos!

I grew up surrounded by the strong, pure scents of attars like vetiver, rose, sandalwood, jasmine, and kewra, so I've never been able to appreciate light fragrances. Over the last 20 years, I've tried many perfumes, but I was always searching for something I would want to own forever. Then, I encountered Tempo in a department store, sampled it, and promptly forgot its name. One fine day, I caught a whiff of something amazing but couldn't pinpoint where the intoxicating scent was coming from. It turned out to be emanating from the collar of my jacket. I spent the entire day racking my brain, trying to recall where and when I had tried it, given my extensive history of sampling perfumes. Eventually, I returned to the store, retracing my steps, and fortunately rediscovered this gem. I asked for a sample to confirm, and that's when I fell in love with it. Its drydown is the best; I even spray it on my forearms before bed so that my sheets also carry its scent. What a beautiful creation from Diptyque

It's by Montagne Parfums based in New York - Another 14. 50ml for $40. I have both the OG & Another 14. Comparing them side by side I'd say about 90% similar. Both have great sillage & longevity. But when I press my nose to the skin I smell stronger iso E super with the OG. And I was actually tracked down by a female stranger in the market while wearing the clone!

Lovely to see you again Iga!💜 The misses were my favourite. 😆 Moldy cheese and tomato sandwich. 🤣 Brilliant. I know what you mean about Noir Exteme parfum though. Luckily it goes more leathery on my skin so I'm a fan. But you've joined a long list of women who enjoy Spicebomb Extreme. 😄 I won't lie, although my tastes are more inclined towards the original and 1899, I still like how the vanilla was done in that fragrance. Balance is the key. Cheers!
Hello, hello. I must say watching misses is one of my favourite content too, both to record and to watch 🙈🙈 Well, Noir Extreme Parfum might work better on a man, that would make sense. Spice Bomb extreme is so difficult not to like, I woul totally wear it myslef too! Thanks for dropping by to watch and comment. Always appreciated.
Thanks for the reviews! I didn't like Guidance either. Sampled & loved Chloe Vanilla Planifolia and Angélique Noire. Uomo Intense & Wulong Cha samples arrive today.
I tried to love Angelique, went throuh a whole samople, and alhouh I don't dislike it, something is off for me in this fragrance that I don't go along with.
Have you tried any from House of Lorenzo Villoresi?
Unfortunatelly, I am not familair with that house. Do you have anything specific that is worth recommending?
@@pixieandthenotes Oh man! Such an under rated house. He is the italian male version of patricia de nicolai in that he is strictly independent based in rence, Italy. Watch JJ Colbourne’s overview of the House. Excellent reviews and got me exploring. I love his vetiver, patchouli, piper nigrum, spezie, atman xaxman and tient de neige. I have ambra and atman caxman edp on order. My guess if you sample some is that you will be taken in my this incredible house. You can thank me later…😁 And yes, there are more I want to purchase.
@@pixieandthenotes florence, italy
@@ericlee419 I will try to see if I can sample them anywhere here.
@@pixieandthenotes If you are in Europe area you may be better able to get them than we are in the states. I believe he does have sample packs. Happy Exploring 👍🏻
What a beautiful selection! Personnally, I do love : - Nun by Laborativo Olfattivo ; - Tenue de soirée by Goutal ; - Miss Dior Rose N roses by Dior ; - Fleur de Peau by Diptyque ; - la belle le parfum intense by Gaultier - Samsara edp by Guerlain ; - Shalimar Souffle de parfum by Guerlain - Poème by Lancôme.
Thank you so much for sharing and watching my choices.
Good to see you back!
☺☺☺
The best patchouli perfume that i know so far is definitely Patchouli Intense by Patricia de Nicolai. It is a wonderful fresh blend and the patchouli is not dominating at all. You should really try it out!
I know it very well, I even I reviewed it a few years ago. Unfortunalely, I don't see patchouli in it a all. For me it's only in the name. I heard a few people say there's not much patchouli in it. I really love the fragrance, but it's too powerful for me. I can't handle the strenght.
I’m only 30 and I’d heard stories from my mum that my Nan used to wear no5 when my mum was younger and it wasn’t very well liked because it was really heavy and strong. So I was really surprised when I tried it tuesday that I liked it. In fact I liked it so much that I purchased the original no5 the l’eau no5 and the no5 eau premiere along with chanel coco.
Oh wow!! That's a serious Chanel haul. Enjoy all of them!
I’m American and bought this at Harrod’s when I was 16! Sooooooo glad I did !! So happy I still have it. ❤
I buy anything if u make the reviews. Very gentle voice and beautiful story telling. 😆😆
Thank you :)
It smells like givenchy dahlia
Unfortunately, I am not familiar with it.
Thank you for the review 🤩
You are more than welcome
Hello, Iga! I like your style 😊, and we have almost similar taste in perfumes. I discovered Ile Pourpre thanks to you, and now I have a bottle on the way :). I also discovered Bois Belize because of your video about it. You also made me curious about the no 5 Eau Premiere , but that wasn't quite my thing, it's too much vanilla in it. And many -many other perfumes I discovered " because" of you, so I thank you for that. Looking forward for your next videos!
Oh hello! You have no idea how happy your I am hearing that! You have absloutely made my day!!! Thank you so much for reaching out to tell me that. It means a lot!
Great review .. what about the performance .. Thank you
The performance is outstanding! On myself I can smell it 10h+ I find it pretty potent.
Totally agree for Infusion D'Iris Eau de Parfum, remind me happy people coming to college in early morning smelling fresh and giving a feeling of joy and happiness.
That's a great association to have!
I grew up surrounded by the strong, pure scents of attars like vetiver, rose, sandalwood, jasmine, and kewra, so I've never been able to appreciate light fragrances. Over the last 20 years, I've tried many perfumes, but I was always searching for something I would want to own forever. Then, I encountered Tempo in a department store, sampled it, and promptly forgot its name. One fine day, I caught a whiff of something amazing but couldn't pinpoint where the intoxicating scent was coming from. It turned out to be emanating from the collar of my jacket. I spent the entire day racking my brain, trying to recall where and when I had tried it, given my extensive history of sampling perfumes. Eventually, I returned to the store, retracing my steps, and fortunately rediscovered this gem. I asked for a sample to confirm, and that's when I fell in love with it. Its drydown is the best; I even spray it on my forearms before bed so that my sheets also carry its scent. What a beautiful creation from Diptyque
Hi, thank you so much for sharing this story! I am really relieved to hear that you managed to track back the gem. Yes, Tempo is one of my best discoveries recently. Soon after recording, I got my dream bottle and now I can enjoy it whenerver I want!
I am very sensitive to fragrances ! For example I can’t stay in the same room where someone is wearing 1 million for example ! Any strong fragrance causes me headaches! The two strong fragrances that I can tolerate without headaches and I LOVE THEM are Sauvage And A men! AMen in my opinion is the most amazing fragrance ever honestly! The only 3 fragrances I use are Amen( winter and clubs) bleu de chanel ( summer or dates) and sauvage for every day every where ! Everytime I wear Amen , I get TONS of compliments
What a trio!!! People can definitely smell you, hahah. I would be courios to smell AMen on someone, to get a different kind of experience wit it.
You sort of remind me of Tabatha Coffey. Not by your looks, but by your style of talking and regal stature. But the similarities with your silhouette and haircut as well. 😃
I will have to look her up, because I am not familiar with her. But I always find it very interesting to see to whom people compare me, because it kinda gives me a chance to see how I come accross, instead of how I woul like to come accross.
Been debating which one, going for EDT. Thank you for the video 😃
My pleasure!!!
Sorry I'm late to watch this video. I just subscribed so that won't happen again👍. Just wanted to let you know about another clone for Another 13...unless you already purchased Air. It's by Montagne Parfums based in New York - Another 14. 50ml for $40. I have both the OG & Another 14. Comparing them side by side I'd say about 90% similar. Both have great sillage & longevity. But when I press my nose to the skin I smell stronger iso E super with the OG. And I was actually tracked down by a female stranger in the market while wearing the clone! I wrote them both down for her. Hope this was helpful. Your videos are relaxing & helpful.
Oh, thank you so much for the recommendation. What a twist in the naming ;) hahahha I will see if i can get my nose on it.Thanks again!
I never got hooked on any Le Labo fragrances because after sampling it I came to conclusion that I don't want to pay a Nordstrom employee to mix perfume that I am paying half of my paycheck for. I don't mean any offense to retail workers, but I would like my fragrance to be prepared at the source where it originates from. Otherwise can I just buy Le Labo ingredients at Costco price and make my own mix? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's a pretty valid point! They are ridiculosly overpriced!
You are a hidden gem. I've watched too many fragrance reviewers, and I can say their non-biased descriptions made me understand fragrance completely differently. I've sampled Diptyque line and can say you are very good at translating the scent profile. Thank you!
Thank you so much! These words mean a lot. Welcome on board! I would love to explore this brand more, because I still havent's sampled enough of their fragrances.
There is coriander in EDP which I don't like. I can smell oregano, which is why I prefer EDT
Oh that's interesting....
