DELICIOUS SCENTS | Xerjoff Dama Bianca, Boucheron Feve Tonka de Canaima, Carner Barcelona Tardes

[@perfeptions]

1:07 Hi Arlene ❤ feve Tonka de canaima is such a stunning fragrance to me !! I have bought it this fall and reviewed it on my channel in the Tonka perfumes video, in case you want to hear my opinion! Agree on the almond facets of Tonka 🥰

Hi Arlene, looks like you already reviewed Dama Bianca about a year ago in one of your videos and loved it then haha. It’s so funny how our noses change over time!

[@DeliciousDelights]

😆 Omg you're right! Jeebuz, completely forgot about it 😳

Dama Bianca is not my fave either, I only have a 3.7ml, but it seems to “bring all the men to the yard” in the Spring & Summer. It also has a Sol de Janeiro dupe; mist ‘40 in the dark pink bottle. Love your content!

You are the second person to compare Dama Bianca to the SdJ '40. I really don't get that: Dama is very light and fruity. The SdJ is a dark, sensual, woody and denser vanilla, similar to Nuit et Confidences by Goutal and perhaps Spiritueuse Double Vanille (Guerlain) to some extend. It is definitely not a dupe for Dama. Have you smelled the '40? Because I have both and I have been wearing the latter to bed almost every night this cold season. I would pull out Dama in spring or summer.

@@IrieAllDay88 I have both and layer them year round.

When you 9:23 spray Dama Bianca from the bottle the powder can chocke you out 😂 I normally don’t suffer powderiness but this one put me in troubles ❤

Oh wow, I didn't know you didn't have Tardes. I love it! Also, I'm REALLY wanting to try the new Boucheron tonka perfume. I saw it on fragrantica when it came out this year and immediately knew I'd have to get a sample to try it out. Totally up my alley. If you remember I adore Tonka too, and one of my absolute favorites is Tonka Amande, which you recommended. When you showed your bottle recently I was like- oh man if I could only buy like 10mls off you!!!! Lol. I only have a 5ml decant and it's almost gone. I've been using it very sparingly to save it, but also don't want it to evaporate before I can enjoy it too. And that's always a risk if you hold on to it for too long. (Another lesson I learned from you!) 😊. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I have Tardes but haven’t worn it in a while. I was nodding in agreement as you were describing it though. Fluffy nutty mixed powdery florals. Dama Bianca: she thicccc 🤭 I’ll have to try the Boucheron, sounds great!

Junoon Noir is a fantastic dupe for Dama Bianca. I actually prefer Junoon Noir

7:37 😂 all of the perfumes you are sniffing today are in my collection! Love them all ❤

[@thebridewearsblack]

To me Tardes smells a bit like cherry! Like almondy cherries and yes, indistintict flowers. Not great projection or longevity (I have experienced this with 7 fragrances from tardas) but I am happy with my 15 ml little bottle. I don't like cherry fragrances but this nuance here where the almond takes that path amazes me. The cold of winter kills it so I'll wait for warmer weather 🤸‍♀️

[@katiejon17]

I’ve been wearing my Dama Bianca sample for about three days now and it is not one that I really enjoy. It certainly doesn’t smell bad, it’s just... meh.

[@imanichase4419]

Tardes is a staple in my collection ❤️

[@BeckyTheBabe]

I’m blind buying Musk Therapy, have you reviewed that one?

[@catherinetrump7355]

Lovely fragrance with good longevity on my skin. Compliment getter too in my experience.

[@thebridewearsblack]

If you are a fan of clean white musks this one is one of my favourite fragrances. I can't see anyone disliking it. It has citric nuances and a fruity touch due to an uplifting blackcurrant note that isn't sweet at all IMO. I don't like berries and you won't get them here, only a tangy black currant, not a sirupy one. It doesn't have that WOW factor as Oud for Greatness has but for me it's not needed at all. Beautiful composition that everyone has complimented me when wearing it. The sandalwood here is like white woods, it isn't sharp aka pencil shavings (even though I have sandalwood fragrances that smell like that and I enjoy it). For me it's signature scent worth it.

[@thebridewearsblack]

Also not soapy for me at all and totally unisex. An inmaculate white musk, people compare it on fragrantica with Montblanc Signature and OH NO, no way. That one gets sweeter with the vanilla and the composition isn't as refined. I must say I prefer wearing Musk Therapy in warmer weather and when I want something clean, crisp and meditative.

[@thebridewearsblack]

It's a bit sweet and powdery. I adore it.

[@perfeptions]

11:05 I also prefer feve de canaima over them all ❤
