Affordable Perfume Haul: Oscar de la Renta

[@kathywitter6076]

I so agree with your comment that the so called listed notes don't always correlate to how perfumes smell.

[@skinscentsforfusspots]

Something Blue is my fave Oscar De La Renta - so unique and amazingly strong and long lasting considering it cost me less than £20!

ODLR it's one of my favorite perfume designers.

[@adrienneb5445]

I’ve been looking for your videos ❤ them !!

[@JulieDeuxFois]

My favorite ODLR is definitely Esprit d'Oscar. But I am a sucker for anything iris. I find it reminds me of Prada's Infusion d'Iris Absolue, for a fraction of the price. I got to fetch a few bottles at Shoppers for 22$ each.

volupté is sensual in english 😉😏Perfumer Sophia Grojsman, she love to use peatch note, in her perfum., for exsample she made YSL Paris qnd Yvresse. ❤️

[@JulieDeuxFois]

Sorry to interject, but 'volupté' is a noun, not an adjective, so you are not correct. Volupté is a bit hard to translate, and although a quick google search would tell you that 'sensuousness' is its english equivalent, I would beg to differ. 'Elation' would be a more appropriate translation, in my opinion. There is an appeal to the senses, to feeling delightfully light and high through pleasure. Bisous from a Québécoise with a formal french literary training ;)

@@JulieDeuxFois ahh the beauty of french language why are you so difficult to learn 😭🤣,👋☺️

[@kathywitter6076]

She also made Tresor which is a top 5 favourite in my collection; I love the peach note in Tresor and recently got a vintage bottle

[@parfecto7716]

Oscar de la Renta is top! I must buy the original 😍

[@pamelabrown8467]

Thanks for sharing ❤

[@alp5260]

Funny thing orginal volupte has a big fiolet note on my skin, that's why I don't use it. Six month later I buy and use Guerlain Après L'ondée like my life depends on it .Same Après with voilets as a main heart note 👀🤣🤦‍♀️😁

[@bonniel4325]

Thanks for your reviews. Have you tried Esprit d'Oscar? I'd love to know how you compare the original and Esprit. I adore Chanel No.5 too. However the company have gotten so greedy with their eye gouging prices. I think shopping for vintage perfumes is the way to go these days. Love your videos.

[@cubbylevi1764]

I’d love if you devoted a video to all of your fragrances from this house. 😊

[@littleflower8915]

Ruthanne, have you done L'Esprit d'Oscar?

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

Yes a long time ago I've talked about it and it's an incredible perfume. I should do a video on all the Oscar's I own

[@cubbylevi1764]

E’sprit de Oscar to me smells so much like L’heure Bleue by Guerlain.

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

@cubbylevi1764 oh I own both & now I will compare them, thank you!

[@The-Full-Lushness-Of-My-Heart]

[@enriquetan-ortiz2950]

Thank you so much for your videos! I fell in love with several ODLR's. Especially Live in Love! I am sad I can't find much online at a reasonable price. Yet I am happy with the ones I found near me at a local perfume store. I bought their last two! You do a great job describing scents! I love all your videos! This may come up as my husbands email because it's his youtube account. I'm Celeste.

[@nathalieethier6552]

Thank you dear RuthAnn! Good to get new videos! French Canadian here and voluptuous means something like sexiness... sensual pleasure... you know ... 😅

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

My husband is a quebercer too

[@nathalieethier6552]

@ruthannemackinnon588 l know, we have chatted on the subject, I think, last month. Happiest of Holidays ❄️🌲☃️
