Dragée is a French word , it's a type of candy you give at marriage or that kind of event,. It's basically almond covered in sugar. You're pronunciation of the word is kind of funny lol. You don't pronounce it "e" the english way in the end , you pronounce it é, like Ave in ave Maria, or pepe. And the "g" , you pronounce it like the "j", like in Jasmine. Like drajé

Vanilla by reminiscence is one of the few perfumes I have a back up of. To me it’s a grown up vanilla and not overtly girly girl. I love it!

You are a lucky person! I was searching for the reminiscence parfums and the 4711 one here in Switzerland. The reminiscence ones are about € 85 and the 4711 Vanilla and Chestnut seems to be sold out! So I must make a trip to the Netherlands!👍🥰

Hi Arlene, I love vanilla fragrances. They’re so comforting to wear. ☺️ Have you heard of the brand Monotheme? They have quite a beautiful & unusual vanilla and they’re so inexpensive. In Australia they’re usually around $20 per 100ml bottle- which is very good here in Aus! They also have a really nice white musk that you might like to try - I know how you despise your lady musk smell in a lot of the newer ones out now! 😜 Love your descriptions & reviews.💖

I just did a quick search, and it appears Reminiscent is not sold in the United States. I found it on EBay for $70+, shipped from Europe. So sad 😞 Also, Dragée means lozenge i French and it it pronounced like drah - zhay ( the g sound is the same as in bourgeois or boulangerie) 😊

Such a nice video. I saw your video about how u compared dragee to kylian princess. I liked princess so much but price on kilian fragrances are too high for me. I would love if you'll do more reviews about remenisence fragrances. I really want to blind buy one of them. It's really hard to find any video about that house in english.😕 By the way i'm pretty sure that dragee is a french word. We also use this word in my language mostly for pharmacy pill purpuses. It means a shape of little pill could be sweet candy or a medicine in some situations 😁❤

Dear Arlene, did you try the "Do Re Heliotrope" by Reminiscence les notes gourmamdes? It smells a lot like pistachio icecream :-) Dragee means sugarcoated almonds in the perfume you reviewed. They are often given at weddings especially in France. Loved your Review.

Hello dear, thank you for this video. Came across it due to my newly acquired Dragee. Firstly let me say that I really like your channel and I love vanilla so this is a very interesting video for me. 💕 Just one thing, I was trying to understand why you choose not to know what the names of the perfumes mean (here Dragee and in another video it was another one, I can’t remember now) is it because you want to be completely objective with what you are reviewing? I m asking because especially in the case of Dragee (which is named after the confection, sth like Jordan almonds) it is very indicative of the scent itself. Sometimes names mean nothing but sometimes they mean everything. This is meant to be a friendly comment, I really really appreciate your reviews!! Hugs 💕

It's a French sweet and it's nothing like a Mentos. It has a hard coating mainly made of sugar and the inside has a whole almond. I get why she said it smells like marchmallow because it kind of does. We usually have it for weddings and Christening. It's pronounced drajay.

Hi Arlene, l just got reminiscent vanille based on your review 😊 and omg what is that creamy powdery note to it?l really love it, it reminds me of compressed face powder, could that be heliotrope? Also have you tried the reminiscent heliotrope perfume? I want to try Tonka perfume from that line, did you review it before? I know you posted this video a long time ago but l would really like to hear your thoughts on it Have an awesome weekend 😊

Reminiscence Vanille reminds me a lot of Guerlain Cuir Beluga. Not sure if it's a dupe but to me they're quite similar. Rem Heliotrope I remember being very powdery and sweet and Tonka to me, smells similar to Kilian Back to Black. :D

Hi! New subscriber here. I'm in the Netherlands as well. :) I just snapped up a sort of gift set with 50ml bottles of the Reminiscence Les Notes Gourmandes (Dragée, Heliotrope, and Guimauve) for only 65eur. It's a blind buy, but for that price, I couldn't pass it up. And I already own Musc, Tonka, and Patchouli by Reminiscence and love them all. So I'm trusting that I'll love these as well.

Just a slight change in the backdrop so I'm assuming most of your set design crew was on hiatus for this production. I was thinking that you need a theme song for the channel, especially when you and Andrew start producing a nightly live news, sports and weather report and the "Andrew After Dark" variety/talk show starts on the Eau De Cupcakes channel! I'm going to check Imbd.com for his upcoming guest lists!😉
