[@roxw7221]

Eau Duelle EDP was my first niche fragrance which started my obsession 14 years ago. As you described Eau Duelle I am thinking I didn't get the green vanilla vibe. I always thought that the EDP was just a stronger version. Now I need to get my nose on the EDT. That Liis Bo is in my cart now (sample). Love your nail color choice.

[@AnneLauren]

thank you! I love the EDP version as well :) I hope you love Bo as much as I do!

[@Paige-kq2pd]

I love your tastes in fragrances! New sub😊

[@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293]

Thanks Anne. Next on my list to hunt down is Ambrosia Imperiale. I'm really intrigued. Banana is a tricky note and I've only got one full bottle fragrance in my collection that opens with banana and that's L'Artisan Parfumeur's discontinued 'Bana Banana'. It's a much greener 'unripe' plantain vibe than I'd ultimately like but works beautifully in the final blend (it is Celine Ellena so one would expect nothing less than banana champagne). Disappointingly, banana accords all seem comprised of very light molecular compounds so it leaves the skin and evaporates into the air very quickly (that sensational hook note in the Comptoir Pacifique vanilla banana one is another deeply frustrating example because once that magically fruity-gummy-banana note goes, one's left with nothing but something redolent of a old crumpled up, dusty vanilla Little Tree smell-- awful). No matter what final composition banana fits into, the note just won't linger as a leading cast member. I'm hunting for a high end fragrance with top notch ingredients which features a prominent banana note in a far creamier, more gourmand direction. Thank you for describing the Navitus fragrance in such a typically colourful, passionate, learned way. Here's hoping I can order a sample from here in the UK. 🍌🍌👃😃

[@AnneLauren]

I agree! Ambrosia Imperiale has been the first banana fragrance I've appreciated and loved, a tricky note indeed

[@reneecrotty6910]

[@charlettebronson572]

Hi Anne! I enjoyed this video! I was very interested in your vanilla pick and it's Kayali Vanilla 28 for me too. I own many vanilla fragrances, but I would choose Vanilla 28 first because of the layering factor and reasonable price. Delina Exclusif would definitely be on my list. I'm a huge fan of Jazz Club, but not sure it would be in this group. - Ms. Charlette

Do you have a rec for a less dense and deep vanilla instead of Kayali vanilla 28 perfume? I find it’s very heavy on me or it’s because I live in a warmer climate it feels that way. Almost like a vanilla good for spring because I can only wear vanilla 28 in winter.

I’ve watched your videos on layering but I’m so nervous to layer mine 🫣 what do you usually layer your vanilla 28 with? Can you successfully layer strong perfumes or are lighter formulas better to layer? Like flowerbomb with something else?

[@AnneLauren]

Vanilla 28 pairs well with the majority of my fragrances! florals, wood, fruits, gourmands, ambers, powdery scents, smoky scents, booze, lavender, a bunch! I'd recommend spraying two scents you're thinking of layering on a test strip, or spraying the two scents side by side on your wrist and seeing if you like the combo at home. That way, if you don't like it, you can easily wash it off, and you're not stuck with it because of being out. I layer with both, stronger and lighter scents, it's really about how the notes complement each other for me :)

Gourmand Coquin is one of my favorite gourmands, but it's discontinued (have yet to try Feve Gourmande and see how it compares) so I couldn't add that one to the list.

[@kikesorriso3038]

Is Ylang gold better than bora bora? What are the differences, please?!

[@AnneLauren]

BoraBora has more thick tropical florals, it's more creamy, more dense. The sweetness is also done differently because of the apricot, caramel, and jasmolactone. Ylang in Gold comes across more ethereal, and has a slight bit of a banana like undertone :)

[@ibsunshinesu6011]

Agree! Ylang in gold is unique because it’s creamy and warm. But it’s definitely smooth. Way oud satin oud is smooth. So w the mfk. If you don’t like rose oud DNA. You won’t enjoy it. Here, the creamy is not only w a banana nuance. It’s lactonic white vanilla & ylang. If you like that, it’s one of a kind must have.

[@jenniferocampo3873]

Bora Bora Is very powdery in the beginning before the tropical florals hit. I personally enjoy Bora Bora in the lotion over the parfum
