Milk expressive, milk personal and gold expressive are the three winners for me! Any of the Milk collection is definitely big bottle worthy, so good. 🥛

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Nice!

[@lovejones2613]

I don’t have anything from Commodity, but it was nice to hear your thoughts about them. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Understandable and I appreciate you for watching.

[@doolaloo8496]

Love this house so much! I got the big sample set when I was first getting into fragrances and I love so many of their scents! Loved the in depth review Santa ❤

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Nice! I see why you like it. Thanks for watching,

[@sheenanicole_8979]

I love Commodity! I’m hoping they will bring back more of the original line. My favorite from the first launch was Gold. Now my favorite from the relaunch is Milk Bold.

[@ellenthomas5154]

gold expressive is the original formula!

[@sheenanicole_8979]

@@ellenthomas5154 I have Gold Expressive…I do enjoy it but there is a slight difference to my nose between the relaunch and the original. I have a travel size of the original Gold that I’ve babysat for a while. It could just be the difference between a fragrance that has oxidized over a period of time and one that is newer 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for sharing.

[@carolinekikudji9979]

I bought one today at the Ross of all places it was the original one commodity mimosa and do I say I fell in love for a blind purchase and the price $29 it smells amazing will be ordering another one from their site ❤❤❤

[@itshannahblackmon]

Omg I was waiting for the day you made a Commodity video! I recently got the Milk+ Bold to try and it’s so good! I really can’t wait for the Milk Scent Space set to come back in stock to try them all out!

[@TheSantaMaria1]

hahah well today is the day! Milk Bold is everything the girls said it was. I love that they have a milk set because all three scent spaces are enjoyable.

[@lovli31]

Hey Santa!❤❤ Thanks so much for reviewing this house. I’ve only tried commodity gold expressive from that collection, but I do own Bois and I really like that one😊

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hi there. Thanks for sharing.

[@SmellNichex3]

Been thinking about this brand so I needed this video in my lifeeee thank you!

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hahah glad this is a topic you wanted to see discussed

[@kim_ble]

I love Commodity fragrances.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thank for sharing. I enjoyed learning about them.

[@carlasmall5215]

Omg Santa! I am beyond excited about this video. I love all your videos. However, when you start exploring new to you houses it brings me a different kind of joy because I can trust you will not hold back. I love the scent space concept. Milk personal and expressive smell great but the mahagony overpowers on me. Book, gold, and velvet expressive worked for me. Purchased a full bottle of velvet immediately, got gold for Christmas, and travle of book to see if I want to upgrade to a full bottle. Book reminds me some of Gris charnel. My bff loved book, moss, and paper expressive. Can't wait until they add more of their archived fragrances. Tea: milk expressive and navitus lost in a dream are first cousins, but milk wins for complexity. Lol

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hi Carla! hahaha yes it is fun to explore new houses because it truly is a new experience. You are well versed in the world of Commodity Fragrances.

[@chimbukachibangulula5635]

I'm yet to try Commodity products. So excited 😊

[@TheSantaMaria1]

It is fun to explore new houses.

[@CCLVCHRISTINA]

Thank you for this review! Milk is my favorite

[@TheSantaMaria1]

I see why!

[@latonyagipson-bowman9186]

Gold, is definitely on my Wishlist it's another good one

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for sharing

[@angeleyesmua3449]

Baby that Milk though!!!!!!!!! Personal Milk is def a bedtime fragrance! Honey loves the scent of fresh baked sugar cookies on me!

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Yessssss !

[@HiddenTreasure09]

💕 Commodity Milk Bold ✨👌🏾 and it pairs well with other fragrance combos.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

It's fantastic!

[@TressesOfAlexis]

Great minds! I’ve been playing with their discovery set too. I was too scared to dive into Moss or Paper but, now I’m less afraid 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheSantaMaria1]

hahaha go ahead and deep dive in!

[@northernclime73]

I have and enjoy Book and Paper in the personal versions. They are great office scents. I tested Milk and Velvet in the bold versions and really enjoyed them as well. Full bottle worthy for me.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Nice!

[@angeleyesmua3449]

Gold expressive is beautiful!

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Yes!

[@amjemison]

Commodity is definitely beast mode. I think the bottles keep the juice fresh. So they last longer on the skin. I love my Milk expressive and Book bold. Book is a dark academia fall smell. ❤Chef’s kiss.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for sharing

[@taylornation320]

Perfect timing! I've been looking into commodity for a few months, doing a lot of research and obsessing over milk especially . I want to smell that one so bad. Velvet and gold sound amazing too. No Sephoras near me have it and I can't find them anywhere to smell. D: I may just blind buy milk bold finally.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for watching. You can always order samples.

Same!

[@charlettebronson572]

Hi Santa! I bought Commodity Bois Expressive last year and I love it. The Australian sandalwood is creamy and cozy. I think it’s been discontinued and wish I had a back-up bottle. I also bought Gold Expressive, but am disappointed with the performance. A beautiful scent, though. - Ms. Charlette

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hi there. Thanks for sharing

[@mscoolbee]

I bought the exploration kit last year. I didn’t get any of the personal scent space. I have Moss expressive, bold velvet, expressive gold, expressive milk and bold milk. I bought the expressive for my husband and the bold for me. Bold milk pairs well with Kilian’s Princess! Unfortunately I gave the milk fragrances to my husband because they both smelled like garbage on my skin. They are beautiful scents but not on me! I believe my favorite is the bold velvet.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Glad you tried it too.

[@isabelsanchezbutto4277]

I have milk expressive and I personally love it.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Nice!

[@kishamac8006]

I love Commodity. Book is my favorite. I have been wearing it for years. I think they have a new fragrance coming out this year. I want to get some of the old fragrances from the archives.

[@kishamac8006]

Forgot. Paper is a strong second place for me.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for sharing your favorite.

[@CookieCoCo_OG]

Gotta try to get my hands on this set. Want to hear something funny? I just realized I’m not subscribed… Baby I’m slipping 😂😂😂😂 Great vid. Thanks ❤

[@TheSantaMaria1]

hahaha welcome to the elf family officially!

[@TikiTokToh]

Milk bold is also my favorite. I have a travel size of Gold expressive but probably won’t buy a full bottle. Love the scent but the projection and longevity isn’t there for me

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Yay Milk Bold! Gold Expressive is real cute!

[@keshahaggans6190]

Milk Expressive is my favourite!!!!!

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for sharing

Love Commodity🧡I Wanted To Try Commodity In 2022 So My Boyfriend Finally Bought It for My Birthday LastYear( Milk BOLD ) so Why Did He Start Loving Commodity More Than Me He Have 2 Bottles Gold and Milk Bold😂and He Also Purchased The Discovery Set So We Could Test More😂🥰

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Great gift! haha the guys love our things too.

[@georgetteramirez150]

I love your eyeshadow! What palette did you use?

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hi there. The coffee shop palette by Juvia's Place is my go to.

[@georgetteramirez150]

@@TheSantaMaria1 thank you have to check it out. It looks gorgeous on you!

I knew you would like Velvet Bold

[@TheSantaMaria1]

hahaha yes I did!

[@kendraharris1493]

iLove & have PAPER , & BOOK (personal) & MOSS (bold) !!! all fresh-y scents to ME & sits well with my skin!!!❤❤❤ loved your honest reviews! I want GOLD & MILK personal…

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thanks for sharing your faves.

[@angeleyesmua3449]

Book gives me Light Blue vibes

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hmmm...interesting!

[@Amanda-yd2ey]

I’m interested in Milk expression because people say it’s a strong marshmallow scent. I’m worried because influencers say D&G Pour Femme is a marshmallow but it’s just a powdery, mature floral 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@TheSantaMaria1]

I suggest sampling first just like I did so you can form your own opinion.

[@stephanieneidl5284]

Pour femme is not mature in my opinion. It’s lighter and sweeter than milk. Milk is stronger and more suitable for fall and winter. Pour femme is more of a springtime scent for me. It is powdery but very sweet and marshmellowy. Milk has a bit more spice to it and more of a milk note with spices and marshmallows…more like a toasted marshmallow. Both are great!

[@latonyagipson-bowman9186]

Hey Santa, let's hear your thoughts on Commodity. I have the discovery set and there are several that I really like....let's hear your thoughts

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Hi Latonya!

[@Heather.Chaniece]

Omg! I waited for this review. My favorite is Milk Bold. I also have Milk expressive and the Gold expressive. I had Velvet expressive but returned it, i got more of the rose than anything else. My mom loves Book personal and Book expressive.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

hahah well here the review is! Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@kendraharris1493]

PERSONAL* is MY COMMODITY!!! ❤🎉

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Cool

[@world_meets_boy]

Book (-/+) and Moss (-/+) are my personal favorites. Book Expressive is my favorite, then Book+ and Book-. Moss- is my favorite in terms of scent, but longevity is trash. Moss Expressive, i could wear everyday. love a fresh, clean, soapy fragrance. i have Paper in all 3 scent spaces as well, but it's a layering fragrance for me. Book and Moss are both very long lasting on my skin. with the exception of Moss-, i can still smell them on my clothes the next day. Moss+ kinda gives Irish Springs bodywash mixed with aftershave vibes which leaned more masculine then unisex to me. i didn't like Milk 😢 for some reason it was sickingly sweet with that marshmallow note, and it actually made me feel sick to my stomach. wasn't a fan of Velvet...the rose note smelled like gunpowder on my skin 😵‍💫 Gold didn't do it for me either. it also made me feel nauseous... not sure what I'm sensitive to but i can't do it lol. love love love Book!!! its a me scent cuz i love books. definitely gives antique library, old book vibes in a good way, but because it's such a "unique" scent, i get self conscious about wearing it cuz it kinda reminds me of a musky basement library lol. it's one of those natural smells that i like...but not always a smell you want on you. at $145 for the 100ml bottles... definitely play around with the Exploration Kit for a few days first. imo, a lot of the fragrances aren't very long lasting so its hard to justify that price. i absolutely wouldn't buy Paper again. even Paper+ is barely a skin scent after about 45 minutes.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Thank you for sharing your detailed experience.

[@leslieenoch]

I LOVE Commodity! My favorite was an oldie that they stopped making. It was called Orris. I also have in my collection Bergamot-very clean! In fact they used to make bar soaps and I would order those as well! Rain- very clean for spring and summer, Book-a nice, unique unisex fragrance. I like Mimosa as well but it is borderline too sweet for me, but still nice depending on mood.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

I would love to smell Orris.

[@tannikamyers1274]

Nice video, but let us know does Milk Bold smell like Blanche Bette ?

[@TheSantaMaria1]

I haven't smelled blanche bete and honestly Im not interested in it.

[@aneshaxiomara6800]

I would say no. Honestly, to me Milk Bold does not smell anything like Blanch Bete, but I will say between the two, I personally like Milk Bold better.

[@tannikamyers1274]

@aneshaxiomara6800 Thanks...I will definitely have to give it a try.

[@mrs.t6847]

Idk why I was thinking you already had milk. It reminds me of, princess.

[@TheSantaMaria1]

Nope wanted to explore the brand all together lol. I can see the Princess comparison.
