No need for makeover ❤ we like you as you are 😊 fragrances change, that’s what matters, to me at least 😅 we are here for your opinions on the frags 😊

So nice of you to say!

Watching from the U.K. love your non fuss advice.. I am starting out with more niche fragrances so lovely to get advice. I was thinking of getting bewitching Yasmine ??

[@thehonestperfumereviewer6336]

It is really good, even though I think you can get similar perfumes at a lower price point. Have you tried it?

[@thehonestperfumereviewer6336]

Forgot to say thank you for the compliment!

Cannot wait for your Amouage review, I also have a lot of Amouage samples and a few bottles but did not get to review them especially cause the samples require studies!!

[@Jenn_N]

Hello Kicki, thanks for your sample review. I want to sample this house and I haven't tried any yet. On another note...I don't think you have to do what other reviewers do, just be yourself it's more authentic. Viewers who connect to you will watch for what you have to say about fragrance. That's why we are here and how we found you on YT. Have a good day! - Jenn

What a sweet comment, thank you!

I don't know about Luna for a man, Luna is awesome, but even better layered with Yasmine.

Coincidentally, Alberto Morillas created CK1. The OG formulation was ground breaking for its time. Now its just a chemical mess. Thanks for the vid.

[@thehonestperfumereviewer6336]

How interesting! Thank you for that bit of info. Should have checked myself.

😂 I don’t think people prefer strong or light perfumes based on how loud they might be (well, some ppl may need to stand out for other reasons). To me it’s more about traditions and how it’s culturally perceived: like as an Italian I can say that it’s well seen to be pleasant in any form to the others. That’s why most Italians take care in dressing up before going for any reason out of their homes, the same holds with getting on some perfume. I guess it’s about impressing positively those around you and for doing that, you need to be smelt 😂 however the Italian traditional perfumery is based on clean smelling notes (citruses, iris, jasmine). What’s offered nowadays by Xerjoff and other luxury brands is not really representative of it. However the oud trend became very popular in Italy too. Something traditionally Italian can be smelt if you sample the Carthusia line or Bruno Acampora for instance. Let me know once you try them 😊

Have never heard of these brands. Thank you for commenting, interesting!

Very interesting about the Swedes... are they a bit rude in your experience? People usually paint Scandinavians as reserved and humble. But I am sure in actuality there is a big difference amongst the Scandinavian countries.

[@thehonestperfumereviewer6336]

They don't say excuse me when they bump into you. The reserved style can also be quite rude if you think about it. We (not me in particular) don't smile at strangers and are bad at small talk with people we don't know that well. I think the differences between us and the Norwegians and the Danish are quite small. The Norwegians have a different food culture, theirs sucks😆. They don't do a full meal at lunch, just sandwich food. The Danish drink more, I believe and live a more continental life.

@@thehonestperfumereviewer6336 wow this is very interesting! I wonder how this meshes with the tradition of fika (I think that’s the word for it). From what I gather it’s where the company you work for has a break time where everyone eats cookies and chills with each other. To me it already sounds kinda scary because you are forced to be social with your coworkers, which can suck because of the social cliques at the office. But if they are bad at small talk and a bit distant, that makes it even more challenging! Lol at the Norwegian food 😂 just sandwiches.

[@thehonestperfumereviewer6336]

@@expansefloating4096 Fika just really means "meeting someone for coffee" (also used for drinking coffee by yourself), but it is kind of a thing in the workplace. Not everywhere in the big cities where people more seem to do their own thing, but in smaller towns this is important. I once visited a municipality (the organisation) as a consultant and they had a mid-morning fika and afternoon fika every day and they basically took a half hour off each time all going to the cafeteria.

Why not get all glammed up, like the ladies on RuPaul's Drag Race, for one your videos, just for the hell of it? 🤪Big bouffant hair, glittery eyeshadow, shoulder pads, shiny sequin dress, statement red lipstick, etc, haha, And the theme of the video could be 'Perfumes to Paint The Town Red With' or 'Big Night Out Perfumes'

[@thehonestperfumereviewer6336]

Hahaha, maybe I will some day!
