[@MonaKattan]

I absolutely loved this video sweetheart!😍 I'm so happy Maui and Maldives captured your heart!🍌🥥 Hope you enjoy them more love!!🌴💗💗

[@kayalifragrances]

Thank you so much for your honest review of the Vacay Set darling!🥰🙏 We appreciate you so much! Hope they grow on you more boo!!☀🫶💗

[@Dee.M.]

I do not regret buying the kayali set! It’s a great way to test them. The presentation, the scents were a win for me! Marrakesh is a summer Marrakesh, so you wouldn’t expect to be a heavy scent. I even thought I smelled honey in it. I think they did a great job with it.

[@trenners1990]

Same, I've tried a few samples of Kayali fragrances and not for me. I'm not a fan of sugary sweet scents at all, but I did love all the vacay scents ❤

[@ameliarose9519]

When I go on fragrantica to look at Kayali latest parfums reviews , it feels exactly like a scam. It feels like each Kayali fan has multiple accounts there and write the most exaggerated and untrue reviews that I have seen in my life. In reality this vacay parfums are not fresh bannan ripe , or bright , citrusy or uplifting…. They’re super sweet , like sugar and some of them have a light the Arabian signature wood , behind all this surgery smells , there is Arabian subtitle signature. Also they last like body sprays

[@ErinNicoleTV]

Any fragrance reviews for that matter, not just Fragrantica! So many brands just flood review sections with 5 stars, it’s hard to get a good sense of the fragrance. Xx

[@juliareid3258]

I literally only Liked kayali silk santal from kayali but I am so turned off by the brand. They give all their perfumes to influencers in PR and pump out so many new fragrances without taking time for quality. Mona seems like a sweetheart, but just turned off from the sugar candy brand

[@HiddenTreasure09]

👏🏾 I agree 🎯💯

[@sherwood9917]

It's not just on Fragrantica; the same thing happens right here on YT. Look at the fragrance influencers who received these mediocre scents for free; 99.999% are acting like these fragrances are groundbreaking.

[@fereyal]

I smelled Kayali set at Sephora, but didn't think I wanted to spend my money on them. In fact, I don't own any Kayali fragrances because I find them all to be childish-smelling, although some smell good, nonetheless childish.

[@HiddenTreasure09]

👏🏾 I agree 🎯💯

[@AriMari24]

Totally agree 💯 . The brand is in my opinion not worth the hype.

[@RaquelVilari]

Thank you Erin, for your honesty. 🌸🌷💕I always look for your recommendations before going shopping for new perfumes.🙏🏻♥️

[@alisasepe6098]

I like the Ellis Miami Nectar and the Jo Malone Frangipani I received for my birthday

[@The_Cherokee_Gypsy]

I just bought PDM Darcy and House of Oud guilty crush and they’re both on the way to me yay! ❤ I can’t stand how hyped up fragrances are on here, yet when you get them they’re just blah. One being Stricnina. I own her and love her, but all she is passion fruit bomb that’s all she is lol. I smell none of the other notes either. One dud I’ve bought this summer is the Charlotte tillbury magic body cream 🙄 like I’m a faithful user of her magic cream, but the magic body cream is just blah. It’s nothing like the magic cream for the face that’s for sure

[@jmessiaen419]

❤ honesty for the win

[@momsof1]

6.5 or 7 for scents that last less than a body spray is being very generous. 😂

[@ErinNicoleTV]

lol that was just initial impression, I haven’t tried them on the skin yet! Xx

[@katarinaserbentas]

Love the Maldives and Miami Nectar appreciation!! They are so good for tropical vacay scents!

[@ErinNicoleTV]

Agreed! I love Miami Nectar so much! xx

[@victoriaperez3815]

I got Juice and get Sooooo many compliments it’s so good in the hot summer days and I’m from Texas. The projection is amazing ❤

[@chigurl4667]

I bought the set as I’m watching…switched over to Sephora. I’ll take my chances on longevity. I haven’t bought perfume in a long time…just got Miami in a new Sephora delivery today…really like it, especially the dry down

[@jennycooper4282]

Just returned from Marrakech, Morocco 😍😍😍

[@jlbeauty.reviews]

Love your reviews. 💞 I got the Kayali set, I actually really enjoyed it. Maldives and Maui were my faves. I'm very interested in Miami Nectar after your review. 😍

[@ErinNicoleTV]

If you like Maui and Maldives I think you will love Miami Nectar! Xx

[@talitharitter3176]

Miami Nectar dries down on me to smell reminiscent of BR540. It freaked me out the first time I wore it!

[@jillymac0613]

I’ve enjoyed the other Love Shack Fancy fragrances. I’ll have to check that one out.

[@milenasugrova4949]

I am glad that I love all 4.

[@SanahLindt]

I’ve been on a no-buy for fragrances this year, and I decided to never blind buy because I have wasted money on duds

[@nancy1316]

I have the discovery set and my favorite scents are #1-Maldives and #2-Maui. I am not an oversprayer but with these I had to spray so many times and even then it only lasted about 4 hours. For me Maldives is the little sister to poets of Berlin by Vilhelm Parfums which I love. Also I tried Miami Nectar and returned it.

[@tawnycannata603]

I 🩷Sirene- it’s on my list for fall

[@michelleh7968]

I have it. It’s lovely. It lasts a long time on me.

[@ErinNicoleTV]

The bottle is so pretty, I wish I loved it. Maybe I’ll change my mind later in the year, I’m holding onto it for now just in case. Xx

[@michelleh7968]

@@ErinNicoleTVI don’t smell the Oud. It seems really sweet. And 1 spray is enough because it’s so strong.

[@randam4005]

I love the Miami Nectar too! Also try Jo Malone Frangipani ( Sephora exclusive), Phlur Tangerine Boy layered with Nest Seville Orange, Pinrose Sun Saint (a coconut & lime scent similar to Creed Virgin Island Water), and of course the beautiful Kai fragrance. . Also loving Replica Sailing Day. I didn't care for the Rosie Missy either. It smells like a generic pina colada to me. 🍹

[@ErinNicoleTV]

I also love Jo Malone Frangipani and Sun Saint! Two of the best for summer! Xx

[@roseparadou]

Hello beautiful amazing Erin! Sirene feels the same for me. The color of the bottle does not announce the juice, and definitely unisex for me. It's original but I was underwhelmed. Not for everyone and absolutely not a safe blind buy. Can't wait to hear you about new releases Gucci Gorgeous Orchid and Fragrances du bois Tropiques.

[@denissescent]

Tropique is a beautiful musky, fruity fragrance, smells like quality, reminds me of Tiziana Terenzi dna, i can't wait to buy it❤

[@chloerafferty9288]

maui or maldives are definitely my favorites! capri seemed a little too sweet :(

[@misstanya15]

Have you tried vert or rouge malachite by Armani prive? I’d love to know your thoughts

[@VegaChastain]

If you think you'd like the Maldives, check out the Sechelles!! :D

[@annan.3283]

What eyeshadow do you have on? It's such a pretty color!

[@milenasugrova4949]

My favorite is Capri and Maui

[@Sunshine0Shadows]

I didn’t like the Capri or Marrakech, but enjoyed Maui and Maldives 😊 I don’t love any enough that I’d use a full bottle though! Maui is so light though, it’s such shame! I’d love it to be bold

[@EssieSpring]

Erin please review the new Gritti fragrance Mango Aoud! It is in a rainbow bottle reminiscent of the L.A.M.B fragrance feom Gwen Stefani totally agree about Juice (Commodity) I was so disappointed when I received my bottle, expecting to love 😫 it smelled like a cheap body spray from the 2000’s. I have been limiting how much fragrance content I consume because I want to get my nose on everything!!

[@chrissylee325]

Hi Erin! I'm so sorry to be asking a question on an older video but I am just seeing this! For YEARS I have been looking for a signature fragrance even if it's just for summer. I'm unfortunately allergic to coconut, and not really a citrus fan when it comes to an orange type scent. I'm an aquatic/fresh scent lady. Is there any that you would recommend, even from this video?

[@michelleh7968]

Hi Erin. Have you tried Alexandre J perfume? They have a new collection and I’m so tempted.

[@The_Cherokee_Gypsy]

I love the vanilla rock candy sugar. I got a travel size, used it all up then bought the 1.7 and almost down to half a bottle. None of these new tropical kayali interest me at all. None of them intrigue me unfortunately lol. I’m over the lemon citrus trend lol coconut all that jazz never been a fan haha. The only one I would slightly be interested in is the orange blossom one. I guess I just don’t like tropical fragrances lol. I’m more of an Iris, lipsticky, sweet, oud, kinda girl lol you were actually the person who inspired me to get Rose prick lol😂 I decluttered her a while back though unfortunately. Can’t stand aquatic either. Most aquatic fragrance I have is Delina Le rosee and that’s as aquatic as I’ll get lol!

[@ErinNicoleTV]

Sweet lemon and vanilla fragrances are definitely popular at the moment! It’s good that you know your tastes so you can avoid buying the perfumes that won’t work for you :) xx

[@toristrickland1725]

I loved Capri in the Kayali set. Worth $25? For me it was. However. The entire set? Nope. Miami nectar has no real smell for me. I get a hint of coconut but nothing else. Was hoping for more pink pineapple and vanilla. It’s ok. Love apple love and sun fruit. Need to get my nose on the others.

[@monzyj]

I know you have mentioned this in other videos but I can’t remember…. Where did you get your necklace???? I’m obsessed 😍

[@ErinNicoleTV]

Thank you! It's from Ana Luisa but sadly it's an older style and no longer available. It's similar to this one: rstyle.me/+PxhjkDn2fea72eKK8W2mcA xx

[@monzyj]

@@ErinNicoleTV thank you!

[@lindapt60]

I was disappointed by Juice - I thought it would be juicy but I get a lot of rose.

[@markjimenez736]

Im a guy and marakesh is the only one that lasted on me.

[@dm1759]

Do u recommend moving to Miami, if so Miami Beach? Renting

[@Yvanna_S]

No! Humidity and heat has been unreal. Rents are ridiculously high.

[@world_meets_boy]

was suuuuper disappointed in Juice 😢 more floral then fruity, more tart and sour then sweet. and very musky to the point they smelled a bit musty fruity B O. i love love love Commodity, blind bought all 3 scent spaces and was really bummed. not at all what i was expecting. definitely felt more suitable for Fall or Spring then Summer. Juice (Expressive) faded in less than an hour. Juice- was stronger and lasted longer, but was just too musky, tart and sour. Juice+ gave floral fruity laundry detergent, potpourri vibes. not a fan at all.
