"Only having 5 perfumes is extreme" 🤔. Why is having fewer things abnormal today? Coffee chat 🤗 ☕

[@milena3630]

I had 160 perfumes and now I only have 10. You inspire me to go for less. Thank you ❤

[@tink268]

The problem isn't the influencers and their choices. We as consumers need to ask ourselves. Do we really want this stuff, or are we being influenced to buy???? I learned this the hard way. I used to buy everything I saw influencers get for free. Until I realized that they were not even spending their own money. 😂😂😂 When I decide to buy; I only buy when influencers are not promoting sponsorship stuff.😊😊😊

[@SeaEagle87]

I've collected things over the years and all it did was cause stress, waiting for the next release. Now I don't collect anything and I'm so much happier. Having your 5 fragrances is a little luxury to you and people forget all these things are luxuries. I also don't use Facebook or Instagram which i feel contributes to having a better life 😊

Growing up (90’s) my mom had 2 signatures perfumes. One for everyday and one for dressy occasions.

[@yoca78]

Which ones? I’m curious

[@nastinka778]

omg you really need to start a podcast!!! your voice it's super soothing + i would love to go on a walk while listening to you!

[@maddy3562]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@jehan9]

My scents for the past 8 years. Started with Daisy - my summer scent Flower bomb - all time fave YSL Mon Paris - night time fall Lancome - summer/spring Chloe - when I'm feeling mature lol Same in our household We hand wash dishes at least 1 a day Wiped down counters daily Sweep daily Mop weekly No shoes inside the house Laundry maybe 3x a week Fold as I go daily or weekend whatever I didn't finish folding Sheets washed weekly Bath towels used maybe 3x Use hand towels for hands for less waste (replaced once or twice daily Everything has a home in our house - kitchen appliances etc. I love my minimalist and simple life. (I still love workout clothes and purses but that's ok) I save time and money. I don't have clutter and it's been such a peaceful life for 7 years now ❤

[@lindamayer4697]

Wow! That sounds awesome. I'm gonna try to work towards a system like that.

[@joanamendonca2500]

if it is extreme to some people...too bad. It is your chanel. It is your house. It is your life. You do you 😉👍

[@loyal4theway159]

hey illythia i work in ER department i know how hard it is and you work in ER and also doing KZbin takes so much effort i really admire your dedication i wish you all the best to you and your beautiful family

[@Liznvx]

You hit the nail on the head. If we were all to sit down and really dissect our existence. We are all filling in the voids in our lives with material things. Some more than others. And in many different ways, but it’s all the same. 😔

[@chelseamoon6978]

Quoting RuPaul: “Mama said: Unless they gonna pay your bills, pay them b*tches no mind.” You do you, Ilythia! If you want a freshie perfume (and I think that’s a good call for sure), get one and add it to your collection. Your true supporters will be supportive. The rest is just noise.

[@alejandramercado707]

I love how many videos you’re posting 🎉 ❤ you have me on a declutter rampage 😊

[@lindamayer4697]

Me too!

[@chrisoulalakkas7935]

If you really want something, then go for it. Life is short.

[@dinapawlow1622]

Totally can relate to this posting. As a human I fall for marketing,so the only solution is to not shop on line or watch influencers. However, every time I see your coffee cup from H&M, I wish they would re-release this model. ❤

[@JackieS-ps3op]

Agree 100% thank you for this ☕️

[@paigemurray4946]

Unfortunately I, too, got influenced to buy a lot due to YT and regret wasting so much money. But if not for YT, I wouldn’t have learned about minimalism which has been so life changing!

[@Zairemom]

I love your videos,I am a fairly new subscriber and you are helping me.people will always have something to say, not realizing that we grow and our thinking and priorities change.

[@amjemison]

You make me reevaluate what I need and don’t need. I think you have to have a balance. Decluttering is hard work. It’s difficult but rewarding. As a libra, I’m constantly like this. 😊

[@user54479]

Something you could do with seasonal items is either get small sizes (15ml) that you would get through in one season or rotate. I often put away my winter wardrobe during summertime, plus any oudy smokey perfumes that don't make sense in blazing sun. This way you don't get overwhelmed as much as a minimalist and manage your collection per season.

[@busrayalavac]

I like that you share your thought process as you go. Yesterday you thought five, now you think six. Its very cool.

[@sherlcollins7011]

I think if I had just one perfume it would definitely be kilian princess!! I love it more then all my others , and for a freshie definitely Chanel chance eau tendre edt

[@veronican9110]

I really want to keep only a few perfumes. I just can’t seem to decide which to give up. It’s weird because up until 3 years ago I only ever had 2 Perfumes and maybe 2 BBW body sprays. This is inspiring. I think it’s weird that I have so many, I’m not an influencer or fragrance expert. 😆

[@4328898]

I agree! I'm running down my makeup and perfumes/toiletries atm

[@Samanthaelisaa]

Do whatever makes you happy it doesnt matter what others think ❤

[@sonnetdarkly2456]

fwiw I think it's so relatable and healthy that you are willing to change your mind

[@alejandrav5790]

I personally like this new direction you are taking. I only have 5 fragrances and also struggle to find a freshie I like, but I fell in love with Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom & Honey (that became my 5th perfume)

[@soniaperez9269]

I am currently wearing Chanel Chance. Such a lovely scent ❤

[@MediaLuna2608]

Love it!!

[@nekomon2546]

I have around 5 full size perfumes myself + around 10 small tester ones and I'm not even a youtuber. My income is at best "decent". I don't find it extreme. It is what it is. Minimalism is subjective. Who cares about what everyone thinks? It's your life and you do what you want and what's best for you. You shouldn't feel like you need to justify yourself because I learn the hard way that no matter how much you explain yourself, people that want to hate will hate anyway. It's just how trash people portray themselves when they refuse to listen and just judge for no reason. So, don't worry!

[@haylesm]

Well said ❤ sending you love

[@user-dl4cu8vu1s]

I agree what your saying

[@pinkfabulous248]

Wow just 5 , that’s amazing 🌸

[@snudder.s.m.l.5026]

No don't think or feel like that, I see the journey you are on and it is okay too figure out what you need on your journey, some times we first know what we need when we are in the situation. Don't be afraid to change or add too what you want. It's only perfume or dead things. It's in the human nature too wants to change in some way. It is healthy too work on yourself. I'm sure that you are helping some that have a shopping problem. 😊 Big hugs from Denmark. 💝🌹🥰

[@sigishawa]

I only have one perfume! The only things I like to have backstock for is toilet paper, toothpaste, soap etc. Started after the 2020 debacle 🙃

[@blackpearltranchau]

I feel overwhelmed now that I have bottles I haven't touched. I don't wear perfume everyday. Try new scents but don't impress by them like my old perfumes. 5 is enough that you'll have different things to change for different occasions but still have signature scent. Ppl don't know what is your signature scent anymore if you own 100 perfumes. A full bottle is satisfy to look at but you don't need that much unless that's not a scent you can wear often. Try having samples, decants and put them in a box. Save your money for food, medicines, healthcare and traveling,... Sometimes having too much can cause anxiety. I love minimalism but perfumes is my weakness, I have to learn how to control myself.

[@LEdwards-c1j]

I hate you have to justify your choices. Keep your head up and enjoy your minimalist lifestyle ❤

[@weeniehutjun1ors]

freshie-wise, wonder if you'd like Ocean di Gioia? fresh and a little sweet

[@snapsforgeisha]

I found a perfume that doesn’t give me a headache and now I only have that one 😊

[@Sarah-uw6tk]

Same!

[@miko8139]

Ｉ love your thought♡

[@fininaclara186]

Enjoyed this chat💕 great advice 💕

[@solromero7415]

Riveres by Cartier the green one so fresh, if you want a fresh perfume, go for it. Thank you

[@Ella...59]

Maybe the jo malone peony and blush suede is a nice summer perfume...and theres is also a new chanel gabrielle l eau perfume on the Market.

[@lisann326]

I started getting the sample because it seemed my collection was too large. If it went with my personal pheromones then I’d get the bigger bottle. The only one I recommend is Creed.

[@alishamclean2489]

Upside-Down Spirituality by Chad Bird is a great book. Mere Christianity was a great book as well. Love your channel!

[@helenscho4769]

If you’re still looking for this, I just bought a beautiful cropped white cardigan for dresses! From Club Monaco.

[@erikamora896]

I literally have 5 perfumes and think its way to many. I want two and maybe a mini to keep in my purse because sometimes I run out the door with my kids and realize when everyone is strapped in that I didn’t put any on.

[@elisanimradevi]

Honestly I don’t have the audience but something like that happens to me a lot

[@lovethineownself7994]

A very affordable and lovely freshie is Esprit de Contradiction by Maison Matine.

[@kreiselsina]

I literally have ONE perfume and I absolutely love it! It’s biotherm eau relax ❤ unfortunately this perfume doesn’t exist anymore - do you know a perfume that’s almost exactly like this one? 🌸✨

[@Jweeee1111]

Completely agree

[@nechamascher7199]

I have one parfume, when it is finished i buy a new one. Whatever happened to my signature smell?

[@perfumetherapie]

Thanks for this video.

[@latonyaboateng1087]

[@annaboron3086]

I don’t think you are extreme I think you are just not into niche parfums. That is it. And that is nothing wrong with that .There is not too many designer fragrance that are good I think you pick the best ones 🙂

[@sweetandsourkraut]

You spent thousands but you sold them for thousands
