Hi everyone! First off; thank you so much to all of you for your continued support, engagement, and viewership. A special thank you for helping me reach 1k.♥️ This is a *long* video and there will still be more coming up 😅😍.. I hope that it will be helpful to you or enjoyable or even better - both! This is the place to share all the obsessive or minutely detailed nuances of lactonic fragrances and notes so please don’t hesitate to share your unique perceptions and descriptions in the comments! Xo

[@ScentSiblingsDotCA]

"Lactonic" is one of my favourite notes in perfume, but it IS hard to define, isn't it. I totally know what you mean about wanting to do a good job and then overthinking. But you know your "people," and they're here for YOU! It's just lucky for us that you like to talk about perfume. We'd be here no matter what, I think, because, well, you're lovely. Okay. Watching now. xo

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you SO much for that! ♥️♥️ I hope you enjoy!

[@youreverypicture3877]

Lactonic is not hard to define. Milky/creamy. That's all🙏💜

[@SOTDWithAngie]

I love that you talked about this topic! I always gravitate towards lactonic notes in fragrances! This was so educational with the different lactones! Yes! I love how white florals like tuberose can be so creamy! Maybe that’s why I love white florals so much haha

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you, Angie ❤️ I was just thinking when watching your last videos that I need to just get whatever you love, haha, because you and I seem to have a lot of note & accord preferences in common - especially, or specifically, vanilla/white floral/sandalwoods with a lactonic edge! It's so interesting to me how differently we all perceive some of these too - people's scent perceptions are more diverse than I thought, to be honest. Thanks for watching and sharing, Angie!

[@lovetolove011]

I think I might really love lactonic scents. A whipped cream note sounds so delicious and dairy in general! Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to learn more about fragrances and figuring out what I will and won’t like. 💛💃🏽

[@CharlotteRossx]

Hmmm, YES you sound like a milk lactone LOVER to me, haha! 😍 And I look forward to hearing more from you too as your tastes change and evolve - it's such a fun adventure. Thank you for watching! 🤗❤️

[@mohdafiqmatrazai7168]

I find myself geared towards creamy, lactonic, and/or gourmand scents. I always find those scents so comfortable and joy-inducing, even if they can be a bit harsh in a tropical country... which I can't escape anyway since I do live near the equator hahaha.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Ah, yes, love the way you put it! And yes, they are easier choices for cooler climates😅 Thanks for watching and sharing, Mohd Afiq! ❤️

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you, Giselle! 🤗❤️

[@CloudofLis]

You're so right, lactonic can be so many things. I'm mainly the biggest fan of fluffy creamy rounded smooth, not the biggest fan of milky buttery tuberose for example.I feel like I'm very much a texture person, in perfume but definetly also when it comes to food 😅 which I oddly found to be related to eachother a lot of the time.. soo looking forward to the coconut video aswell. Live colourfully is one I'm gonna look into! Reaally great video 😚💕

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you, Lisa! 🤗 Yes, I'm so surprised sometimes how closely related they are. Interesting about the milky buttery tuberose! I love that kind, but it just goes to show that there are different tastes and nuances for the same accord 💖

[@boogiepimp78]

Wow! You really went in depth in this one and a part 2 as well?! It reminds me of when I heard a reviewer complaining about others that call scents ‘creamy’ when she doesn’t get the ‘creamy’ description at all with a particular fragrance. However it depends if you are looking at the literal interpretation of the word creamy, being derived of cream, so lactonic. Florals can come off creamy as well based on the combination of notes and types of flowers used. Ylang-ylang tends to do that and when paired with Vanilla, it has that ‘creamy’ feel. Good video!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Yes, exactly! There are so many nuances - and tastes to go along with them. Thank you! 🤗❤️

[@andreamendoza4823]

@@CharlotteRossx thank you so much for the warm welcome! I know you give examples of perfumes that fit each lactonic category, however what would be your top, say…. Five? Overall? For lactonic scents. I’m a gourmand lover and have been really wanting some lovely lactonic scents!

[@CharlotteRossx]

I have a couple videos coming up with specific reccomendations but right off the bat, my fave lactonic has to be Zadig and Voltaire's This is Her, for sure. It's my absolute go-to when I want to smell milky and comforted/comforting. Stay tuned for more! 🤗❤️

[@jeannielowe0820]

@@CharlotteRossx Ah yes, I’ve heard plenty about This Is Her from your other videos! I wish it was available in stores because I am IMPATIENT 😂 have you had a chance to smell Good Girl Legere? That has a dulce de leche note in it! It’s quite true to the typical fruity/sweet DNA, but I think it has some lovely qualities!

i LOVE creamy lactonic scents, they seem to really gel with my skin chemistry (which i think naturally runs sour? if that makes sense 😂) my favorites are kissing by kilian, love tuberose by amouage, and remember me by jovoy 😍 thanks so much for the awesome video, charlotte! 🧡

[@CharlotteRossx]

Aw, thank you so much for sharing!❤️ I have to admit to you... I recently bought Love Tuberose (my first BIG niche purchase 😍) and it went straight up to favourites for me as well so I HEAR YOU! Kissing is on my list too - I've sampled it and love it. I have to check out Remember Me, now!

[@nancneumann4196]

Exactly! I hear you. Lactonic sweet is something i never gravited toward but recently discovered it works with my my chemistry. My chemistry must have changed because ive spent past couple of years trying every kind of perfume category under the sun and n these days the only thing that 'sticks' and smells right are the super sweet lactonics. Sweet, whipped, creamy perfumes mellow down perfectly against my skin and become (finally!) the gorgeous scents they're supposed to be.

[@taniag3481]

Jeez this was so good :)

[@beeslovehoney0]

More lactonic perfume videos please 😍😍 I blind bought sound of Donna and this is her because of you and I love them both 😌

[@theprousteffect9717]

I just found your channel and had to subscribe for this video alone! Lactonic fragrances are probably my all time favorite, and I had no idea there was a word for them until recently. I think of lactonic scents as having some sort of prominent creamy elements to them - both in the scent itself and in the "feeling" or "texture" of the perfume.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Welcome! I'm so glad to have you here. 🤗 You have a great way of describing lactonic scents - very on point! 👌🏼 I think they are my favourite too - I can't help but love a lactonic scent. 😅

You have just unlocked my favorite scent profile! I just realized my entire collection revolves around lactones and furanones. I love and prefer so many lactonic notes and accords: milk, rice, osmanthus, peach, tuberose, gardenia, cream, coconut, almond, jasmine, hay/grass, tobacco, waxy, creamy, fatty, tropical, cosmetic powder, pear, green tea. other favorite unrelated notes (iris, violets, ylang ylang, rose, honey, beeswax, plumeria, tiare, grapefruit, heliotrope, cherry, violet, resins, amber, ambergris ) are paired with lactones in every perfume I own. Thank you so much for helping me understand why I like what I like, it will help me in the future for sure!

Now I need to watch all your vids…the way you broke all of this down just made me feel so much smarter than I ever have😆😅 lol…so I have a fragrance that has lactonic accords, wanted girl by azzaro….love it. Some say it’s generic but I find really complex; its sweet, kinda creamy and well rounded and dries down to a really lovey powdery scent….a lax tonic scent that is at the very top of my wishlist is Z&V This is her, I am so intrigued by the scent although I haven’t actually smelled it before😅 oh and Kenzo amour is right up there with it.

I live in the southwest and it's going to get up to 111°F this week! 😣🥵 I've been wearing Burberry Touch now that it's getting unbearable. There's something in there that tricks me into thinking it's cooler than it really is. 😆 I just got the The Only One Intense part of the video, I like that one so much too! I ended up getting Dolce Garden because I read everywhere that they are very similar and I didn't want to spray mine too much since that dang black bottle, I don't know how much I have left. Hahaha, so yeah that's how Garden ended up in my collection. 🙈

I collected tons of perfumes especially those of the oriental-caramel-y scents, and i think this is one of the best, most comforting perfumes ever………. Its sweet but not like whipped cream+milk+nutty+woody IN THE FACE OUT LOUD, its just airy, clean, sweet but not cloying, and just….. heavenly Turns out what im searching for in a perfume is a creamy and lactonic scents!

Initially, i thought my scent profile was awfully manly...woodsy, leathery, smokey....and in 3 momths ive been SHOCKED to discover, i like gourmands...some white florals (dont understand quite yet), thought i didnt care for vanilla. Thought it was basic and boring as a scent....i was all wrong. I love the creamyness and sweetness vanilla tends to give. Ive noticed sandalwood is another creamyish note that i love when done right. Im here trying to understand that shit 😂 VERY informative video, THANK YOU for going over all of this!!! Instant subscriber

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you for sharing! And congratulations on your 5th, that's amazing. ❣️

You know what else it might be in the narcisco scent that makes you nauseous is the cardamom! I have a few cardamom scents and it's a love/hate. I have to be in the mood or else it will make me sick. But all of them are warm, spicy, almost lactonic. I think the lactonic vibe I get is because the cardamom can be reminiscent of a chai latte lol Curious on your thoughts about that! :) Great video!!

[@CharlotteRossx]

Oh, yes, cardamom is definitely hit and miss for me! I love when it does what you say and warm up the mix to give a sort of chai latte vibe - but not when it's too pronounced and takes over and turns sharp or cloying. Interesting about the Narciso - I will keep what you said in mind next time I try it out to see if it might be that! Thanks so much for sharing and watching! 🤗🥰

[@nicoleyoung3927]

The way you say lictonic 😆 I absolutely love creamy fragrances, but they don’t have to be la’ctonic.. I feel like he gets confused with a note that smells like, powdered milk, or something almost off… When I just love very well rounded creamy smooth soft fluffy sort of fragrances… There is like a sweet cream-ish scent that I love, that can get crossed with A sour milk note that I dislike… Some of the best creamy notes I have ever found are in the lush bath bombs personally, or Clorox coconut wipes… Other than that, Sanatal complet.. and other milky fragrances with coconut Done right is my absolute favorite! I haven’t gotten through the video yet but I hope you mentioned some newbies that I haven’t tried…Hermès makes a good one.. Santal massoia, I think.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Yes, you are right! Creamy is kind of subjective. You mentioned some really lovely fragrances, Nicole. 👌🏼😍 Thanks so much for sharing. ❤️

[@paryagiagorji909]

Hey charlotte! First of all, loved the video and learned a lot 🤗 I think a fragrance can be lactonic but not creamy, I think. There are a few perfumes that are powdery but lactonic, I think feve delicious is lactonic but not creamy. It has a dry milk kinda vibe. What do you think

[@CharlotteRossx]

Hi Praya! Thank you - I’m glad you enjoyed it. And yes, I totally know what you mean - I like how you described it as « dry milk » with fève délicieuse. 👌🏼

[@sayladytea]

Bae I didn't like Bianco Latte until I paired it with Lancome Tresor Nuit a la Foli. I totally get what you mean.

[@CanaAlyce]

Have you smelled American cream from lush it came in a hair conditioner. Then a shower gel and body conditioner then a perfume. Lovely. It's so creamy latonic creamy it's a strawberry milkshake scent but really authentic. I highly recommend it.

[@CharlotteRossx]

Oh, wow, no I have not - but hair conditioner is one of my favourite scented products next to perfume! I will have to check it out at Lush (I never go there but now I have a reason) - Strawberry Milkshake hair sounds amazing! Thanks for the watching and the suggestions 🤗❤️

[@snehadhanawade986]

Hi 👋. I like gourmand perfume I like gourmand sweet perfume and gourmand perfume that smells like cupcakes 🧁, ice cream 🍦. Fruity whip cream etc. My favorite perfumes r Jessica Simpson Fancy, Kayali Pistachio Gelato 33 , Al rehab coco musk , Britney spear Fantasy.

You MUSTTTT try Piano Santal by L'orchestre Parfums! Such a delicious, lactonic sandalwood!:)

[@CharlotteRossx]

YES!!! Absolutely, I have to! 😫😍 Thank you for the recommendation, Tea - it's been on my list for a while and I'm getting antsy to try it. 😅

[@Detman101]

My preference is Lactonic Creamy fragrances. RIght now, top of the list is "Bharara - King" followed closely by "Kilian - Rolling in love", "Mugler - Alien Goddess" and "Alexandria Fragrances - Italian Caramel". (Yes, I wear ALL gender fragrances) I'm hoping that the Montale "Vanille Absolu" and "Vanilla Cake" that I just bought wind up being nice and creamy.

[@CharlotteRossx]

I hope you get all the lactonic creaminess from those Montales! Thanks for sharing your favourites. 🥰

[@yourfragrantfriendj3986]

I like my Lactonic fragrances with fruits, florals, or both if I find them very creamy. It helps to keep it from becoming too rich.

[@CharlotteRossx]

I think you're on to something there, J. I'm always on the hunt for creamy and lactonic fragrances, but I too find that I end up enjoying them more when they have those other facets that offset or compliment the lactonic edge. 👌🏼

[@tessab9374]

Queen of creamy & lactonic 🤣😶‍🌫️👍🏻

[@CharlotteRossx]

😁🥰🤗

[@avabirdsong]

I cant fall in love with a scent unless it has lactonic qualities. Sweet, creamy, smooth, comforting and takes the edge off the other notes😍✨ Ive been searching for a creamy green tea scent but cant find one i like. 😭

[@CharlotteRossx]

Yessss! Thank you so much for watching 🤗 A creamy green tea scent sounds divine! I think Kilian's Princess comes close though it's not quite lactonic. I hear the new one by Replica - Matcha Meditation has a white chocolate note and is supposed to be a creamy, cosy green tea - haven't smelled it though.

Hi Charlotte !!!

[@CharlotteRossx]

PAOLA! ❤️ I totally forgot you made a video about lactonic scents - I actually haven't watched it yet (hence why I forgot) so I must do THAT and add it to the resources in the description box. 😘 And, YES, about logical fallacies LOL! I felt like it reminded me of school but I just couldn't quite put my finger on it. 😂 Santal Complet is absolutely way too expensive for most people (me included 😅) but also absolutely lovely and worth at least trying a decant. ❤️ I *have* to try those two other ones, they sound like lactonic staples 😍

[@youreverypicture3877]

Lactonic means milky & creamy. A fragrance can be creamy but not milky. "Lactonic" is milky - bc "lactic" acid is something that is in milk/cream/cheese... that's where that comes from - bc....nevermind..🙏💜

Mont Blanc Signiture, creamiest most lactonic perfume I ever smelt. I so love fresh cream warm cashmere too by Philosophy. Have you tried it?? 😍😍😍😍😍

[@CharlotteRossx]

I NEED to try it, haha! I still haven't unfortunately. That's one I would probably blind buy if I found it on a shelf in store. 🥰 Thank you for sharing, Prisca!

[@user-dj4ir6zs6e]

I wonder wdyt about dolce garden from dolce&gabbana, viktor&rolf bonbon, and prada la femme😁

[@CharlotteRossx]

I haven't smelled bonbon but I have Britney Spears Curious In control which apparently smells like it (Love this scent but the performance is pretty bad) - I am still considering adding it to me collection eventually. 🧐 Garden is nice but very much summer-only for me with that very obvious coconut lotioney note. And I still need to smell the original Prada La femme. Are these scents you have already or that you are thinking of purchasing? Thanks for watching and being here, S! ❤️🤗

[@sarapetrovska6940]

Not me despising the scent of real milk, yet still watching this whole video! Jokes aside, real milk smells sour and gross to me, but lactonic scents smell lovely, except for coconut+florals, which is too sticky for my taste. Congrats on 1k subs, by the way

[@CharlotteRossx]

Thank you so much for sharing, Sara! I swear, it sounds like we all have quite different lactonic tastes! 😂🥰

[@yourfragrantfriendj3986]

I have trouble with fig too. I do like creamy fragrances but when the fig is creamy, it reminds me of coconut. I don’t really get along with that note 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@CharlotteRossx]

It's nice to know I'm not alone with that one! It's strange - sometimes I love it. I think it's a note that has to be well balanced with other more creamy and rounded notes for me to appreciate it. Thanks for sharing, J. 🥰

I’m so lost la yuqawam has three diff ones on Amazon? Which one pls ? Is the cinnamon one? Thx

[@CharlotteRossx]

Yes there are three - the one you're looking for is called La Yuqawam pour Femme - the motif on the front is a little bit more of a lilac colour whereas jasmine whisp is white. Other than that and the title the bottles look the same.

[@d011p4rtz]

kissing by killian and this is her by z & v smelled MUCH like spit up/vomit. its the combo of green or citrus notes with milk that made it particularly sour on me. forever in search of my perfect milky vanilla scent

[@CharlotteRossx]

Oh, I'm so sorry that's what you got out of This is Her; it really does seem to be hit and miss for so many. I will look into Melanie Martinez's fragrance - thank you so much for sharing!

[@danashackleford5010]

Lactonic is a scent u know once u smell it. Has a baby feet smell kinda. ZV this is her has a lactonic smell.

[@CharlotteRossx]

You are so right, Dana! And yes, I think This is Her is the most representative of a lactonic smell I've smelled so far, for sure.

[@NT-lg8vi]

Does La Yuqawam Femme smell like Black Orchid to you, like many people seem to think?

A bit, yes, but definitely less complex smelling than Black Orchid.

Vanille extrême by Comptoir Sud Pacifique is very milky :)

Lactonic means milky & creamy. A fragrance can be creamy but not milky. "Lactonic" is milky/creamy even- it suggests a creamy density.. but it's called lactonic- bc "lactones"/lactonic acid - milk sugars - these are something that is in milk/cream/cheese... that's where that comes from - bc....nevermind..🙏💜(the fruit stuff is different; not lactonic per se.)
