Hi friends! 💖 Which fragrances do you think others should try first from these houses? Leave a comment below ⬇️

[@kuklakid]

Diptyque. To me, Diptyque is the OG quiet luxury fragrance house. Kayali didn’t even exist when I first got into perfumes. And I started with Diptyque and Jo Malone. No shame on Jo Malone.

[@kuklakid]

Sorry. Didn’t read the question carefully. But I stand above.

[@VeronicaSays]

​@kuklakid which Dyptique would you suggest to beginners?

[@kuklakid]

Eau Duelle or Fleur de Peau . I have many but those are the essentials. I’m freezing my ass off today in NY and I’m going outside but I’d wear either inside. As for Jo Malone indoors today I would wear Orange Bitters and a discontinued gem which has Snowdrop in its name. That one is my indoors January fragrance.

[@latonyagipson-bowman9186]

I think the Kayali you picked is a good one. I actually love it more than Vanilla 28

[@TressesOfAlexis]

Delina Exclusif really is such a masterpiece. When in doubt, I always reach for her and the compliments are nonstop!!!

[@VeronicaSays]

Yes! She never fails! 💯💯💯

[@julieg_quebec-julesselivre8641]

I like your approach to perfume Veronica. You are always inclusive and thoughtful of our budget. These sound like perfect basic pieces to me… Delox is on my wishlist. I wore Rose Gourmand by Zara last week and I was reminded of how much I enjoy this scent profile. Have a great weekend! ❤

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you, Julie! Zara comes through with the affordable gems! No doubt. 💯💖🥰

[@leahmiranda8359]

I only have two Zara fragrances….Rose Gourmand and Violet Blossom. I love both!

Hey Veronica! Starting out on my fragrance journey, I knew I loved unisex fragrances and have mostly lingered in that corner but when I bought my first rose heavy scent, specifically Initio's Atomic Rose, I've completely switched gears into more feminine leaning notes. How is it so girly-sexy but somehow still unisex? Magic. Amouage has had a chokehold on me, which surprised me. Is it loud? Yup, but my GOODNESS is every scent a touch of fantasy. After finding your channel, Tiziana, Xerjoff, and, Bond No. 9 are at the top of my list! What incredible range these houses seem to have. Can't wait to dig in. 🤤

[@VeronicaSays]

Atomic Rose is... well... Atomic! Divinity in a bottle. Amouage is a whole interesting rabbit hole of exotic and challenging fragrances. Love the house now! 💖🥰

[@taneiwalton4271]

Which amouage is your fav

[@somethingsomethingname4814]

@taneiwalton4271 Hey there! I'm still digging through the archives of the collection, but so far, I've absolutely LOVED Lineage, Honour, and Guidance. The idea of being able to do one round of sprays (and not heavy-handed, mind you) and still being able to smell these unique powerhouse fragrances the next day after a whole night of drinking and dancing is MIND BOGGLING to me! Lol Would love to get my hands on more but those PRICES. I'll keep dreaming. 🤤 Good luck deciding! Please let us know your thoughts if you do get to sample. ✌🏽🩷

[@somethingsomethingname4814]

@taneiwalton4271 Aw, my pleasure! I'm just starting out on my fragrance journey so it's so interesting and fun seeing what others are recommending too. 🙂 You make a VERY valid point about Guidance - so divided! I hope you love Lineage as much as I do. 🤗

Honour woman was my first Amouage and what made me fall in love with the house.

This is a very helpful video, niche is too expensive to get wrong. 😆 especially since I prefer more feminine fragrances 💓I think no matter how experienced my nose gets, I’ll always prefer the more feminine fragrances. No matter designer or niche 🥰

Yes, some of these costs mean we better know what we're getting into with these! 💯🥰 Nothing wrong with preferring feminine fragrances. 👍👍👍

[@VeronicaSays]

Yes! Both are always good - they never disappoint! 💖🥰

You hit Oud Juan’s intense on the head. That fragrance reminds me of being home in Grenada 🇬🇩 going out at night. The air is just filled with that scent. Amazing 💕💕

Hiiii Roxanne! 💖🥰 Exactly, friend! If you know, you KNOW! It's a gorgeous thick creamy floral smell.

I agree about Delox. I decluttered Intense Cafe because I like this better.

[@VeronicaSays]

I wholeheartedly agree. What a sophisticated gem!

[@patr70]

At 20:30 Fragrance du Bois "Oud Juane Intense" smells [exactly] like the inside of The Mirage hotel in Las Vegas smelled during the 1990s. From 1989-1998 The Mirage, The Desert Inn, and Ceasars Palace were the "Premium" hotels on the Strip. They pump the fragrance into the venelation systems which them goe into the casino, lobby, shops, restaurants, and spa 🏖🏝

[@VeronicaSays]

Those hotels must have smelled incredible! Well... minus the smell of smoke in the air 😬 One the main things I DISLIKE about Vegas casinos. Yuck!

[@patr70]

@@VeronicaSays I smoked for 30 years! I started when I was 13 in in1983(back then nobody cared if you smoked as a teen) and I just quit 2 years ago. It's a very strong addiction. I only quit becuase I got Covid-19 and I [had] to quit because the Covid damaged my lungs. I didn't want to die.. so I quit. From 1989-1995 The Mirage was the Wynn of it's time.. and was the "It" hotel on the strip. 🏝🏖

Yes, smoking was everywhere and so casual in that time period. I'm so glad you're past it now! 🥰

Great list Veronica 😊. 4 of those houses I've not ventured into yet. My nose is slowly evolving and I plan to do more sampling and decants of fragrances this year. I love Dama Bianca and Delina La Rosee. TT is not for the weak😂 ( I have 3). I received my lovely gift from you yesterday and soo happy to have it in my fragrance family/collection ❤. Thank you for sharing your passion and knowledge of fragrances. 😊

Hi Veronica! Happy Saturday!!! I agree with you. Delina Exclusive is an excellent gateway to PDM Fragrances. I wish I would have purchased that first instead of the original Delina! ❤

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank youuuu Muffet! 💖🥰 Do you not like the original Delina? It's not my favorite.

[@kerrimorton]

Great lineup! 💜 Amourage can be a challenging Niche house for many because of the complexity of their notes. I’d definitely recommend Material from this house. It’s a safe, entryway to Amourage.

[@VeronicaSays]

Hi Kerri! 💖 Material stole my heart this winter. Such a beauty! 🥰🥰🥰

[@sunnyscents1818]

Coco 21 is the safest! I absolutely agree! I get complimented all the time I prefer it in colder temps ( my skin chemistry is so rude & wont welcome it in high heat 🤣) I really really need to try Delox the reviews are so mixed! Did I hear sale ? 😉 I’m still searching for my perfect Amouage I don’t mind unusual scents at all but something about there fragrances always end up animalic on me ( yes 🙌🙌🙌🙌 let’s talk about the white florals super feminine & classic ❤❤❤)

[@VeronicaSays]

The Kayali in cold weather is amazing! The creaminess works in cold. Love it! 💖🥰 Not everyone is into Delox, it's okay. And I'm having a white floral reprise here. Find myself looking them up and wanting to add them ALLLLL!! 💯💯💯 #SENDHELP

[@morganlefay2599]

8 out of 10 of these houses I own🤪. The only change of what I have would be Oriana instead of delina exsclusif. I wore Oriana the first time in July to a VERY important event. I felt so beautiful and confident mingling with the vips, my choice of a silk dress didn't hurt either😅 excellent presentation per usual Veronica, and happy belated birthday!🎉❤🥳🎂

Hi Veronica! I’ve been following for a while and somehow I never realized you live in VA! I lived in Williamsburg for many years, love that area. My personal favorites from some of these houses are Absolute Aphrodisiac, Atomic Rose, Delina Rosee, Nolita, Rouge Smoking and Yum Pistachio Gelato. I’ve been wanting to try Dama Bianca and 100 Silent Ways for a while now. I’m also really excited for the new release from Initio! I haven’t tried psychedelic love, but your description makes it sound so appealing- I’ll need to get a sample. I’m not a big fan of TT; just not my style. But I’d like to try some from Amouage in the future. I started shopping on Jomashop after seeing you, and it has saved me so much money!

[@kimwilliams1812]

Yes, that’s a great idea to get samples first before buying big bottles. I have the Kayali Vanilla 28 in 100 ml and the Musk 12. I like the Musk 12, however I don’t like the Vanilla 28. My Vanilla 28 will sit on my glass tray in it’s box forever. Vanilla 28 is a very different vanilla and it is a very heavy Vanilla. I could blend it with other scent notes, however I’m not good at blending perfumes together. I don’t a channel or on any sale site to sell things. So I have learned my lesson on buying expensive perfume, specially if perfumes are over a hundred dollars. I don’t mind spending under 30 under with out samples. So yes, buy samples if you can. Love your videos and advice ❤

Maybe not completely wacko, because I try to be considerate of those near me, but not something I'll be able to say, "Oh! That smells like Blank Designer #1 or #2." To me, scent is an adventure! So I humbly request as a follow-up to this series, please do one for those who are looking for something outside the lines. 😊 But, again, this was a great video and I agree with your choices that I'm familiar with!

[@VeronicaSays]

I agree! Scent is an adventure; however, many beginners to the hobby would prefer easing in gently. This video gives those folks some idea of relatively "safe" entry points before they join everyone else for the "adventure" part. Kind of like a zero entry pool. 💖

[@hollyaynkidwell3445]

@VeronicaSays I agree wholeheartedly! If my comment came across as criticism, it wasn't intended. 😘 I understand some would like to dip their toe into the pool rather than doing a cannonball. Lol

Great choices Veronica 👏🏽😉 I remember when this was me trying to learn about niche scents for a beginner. This is definitely a necessary video 👍🏼

Yes! We were all there at one point. Thank you, Denise! 🥰💖🥰💖

Bond no 9 is a fabulous house with a variety to choose from and I have not sampled everything but I have 4 fb (including Tribeca ). and a few samples/decants.... personally I would choose either New York Nights bc it's sexy, date night all yr fragrance , pretty versatile and I think it's relatively mass appealing or my 2nd choice would be Gold Coast , a fresh, watery fruity rose, super easy to wear and a very likeable fragrance 😍

[@VeronicaSays]

Yes! NY Nights and Gold Coast were definitely contenders for this list. I have and enjoy BOTH! SO GOOD! 🥰🥰🥰

[@pattieschulte700]

Our first beautiful blanket of snow! I love it so. Now I am inside and not driving!😊 Its just stunning! Love your selections. Thought they were mass appealing. Great job. Initio, Amouage , etc. have so much to choose from. Good for us.... Sale soon? I love all you picked but 2 I do not have. You are great and do your homework. It pays off my friend. Look at your subscribers. Getty on up there girl...I think I am cute.😂 Keep up the grand work.❤pattie

Thank you Veronica. I always enjoy your reviews and sense of humor. Love Tuberose was my wedding day perfume last May. I just received a decant of Material For Women and I feel it is sweet and powdery. I will have to get used to it but I do like it…I think. I need to try this Honour Woman. I seem to be more attracted to sweet floral non heavy scents right now as well as some Vanillas. Probably due to sinus issues. Anyway thank you again, hope you are doing well. 😊🙏🌸

[@VeronicaSays]

Hi Laurie! 💖 Belated Congratulations on your 2023 wedding! Love Tuberose is an amazing choice for a wedding scent! Hope you grow to love Material. It's such a beauty!

[@ninadelong815]

I truly enjoy your interpretation and explanation of the fragrances. And I agree the snow is beautiful but it is freezing here in Va🥶🥶🥶

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you so much! 🥰 Oh gosh, it's been BRUTALLY cold recently! 🥶 Yikes! Stay warm, my friend!

[@roseayalaperfumeaddict5059]

Love Tuberose 🙌🏼. I blind bought on your recommendation and looooove it!❤❤❤

[@VeronicaSays]

Yay! It's so pretty. 🥰🥰🥰

[@VegaChastain]

We don't really get snow where I live, but we recently got sub 20 degree temps and we're shook!! haha I turned the fire on and i'm ready to hibernate... so nice to have these lovely warm fragrances (and your video) to keep me company ❤ thanks!!

[@VeronicaSays]

Awww thank you! 💖🥰 We were very low in temps here today and I just wanted to be home curled up with a blanket, too. 💯

[@jenlikesdogsandperfume]

I love Psychedelic Love! If you had to choose, would you pick Atomic Rose or Delina Exclusif?

[@VeronicaSays]

Jennifer... no. Don't make me choose. I thought we were friends 😆😆😆

[@jenlikesdogsandperfume]

@@VeronicaSays 😆😆fair enough! I'll just have to try both!

[@VeronicaSays]

@jennifermccordcodispot8924 I think Delina is slightly easier to love but my vote goes to Atomic Rose.

[@oscardog6719]

This was a great idea for a video Veronica. Wish I had seen it 2 years ago😁 This will give people new to fragrances some direction to help them choose. Well done. Love hearing about you having snow when we are in 35 degree Celsius here in South Australia. Getting 39 on Tuesday. Tea Tonique getting a work out! Looking forward to your designer video 😃🇦🇺

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you so much! I tell ya... the things we would do differently if we could start over, right? Stay cool in the land down under, my friend! Tea Tonique 🍵 is great for hot weather! 👍👍👍

When I first got into fragrances Oriana was one of the first niche blind bought in 1 ounce. I thought it was just OK now one of my faves.

[@VeronicaSays]

I enjoy Oriana also! Really good. 🥰💖

[@chrisab3217]

Veronica 💝, happy birthday month, hope you're enjoying lots of celebrating 🎉, Tiziana Terenzi , Halley is my personal favorite from the house and wore her yesterday to my single day record compliments 🥰💯, from men/women, strangers and coworkers , but I think Cassiopea is the easiest to understand and wear from the house , it lacks that strong amber/musk combo from most of his creations that ppl can struggle with ( I probably have 25 decants/samples/bottles from the house)

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you so much! 💖🥰💖🥰 Halley and Cassiopea are definitely good entry points into TT. Compliments are always a great thing!

[@jadealyn06]

love the idea of this video!

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you so much! 🥰💖

[@jaymeel7464]

My passion for niche perfume is growing. What kicked off my niche obsession was Initio- Rehab and Musk Therapy. Those are gems and daily easy reaches.

[@VeronicaSays]

Hi! Yes, both of these are just lovely! 🥰💖🥰💖

[@jaymeel7464]

@@VeronicaSays They really are!🤎

[@anp22fab]

Love this video. . . . Yes to Delina Exclusif but for Bond No. 9 I would choose Madison Avenue (the one in the pink bottle), she is feminine classy shopping woman easy reach to me. Also, for Fragrance Du Bois, my choice is Secret Tryst. It has been COLD COLD COLD in Atlanta, and hubby has been snuggling me this weekend extra hard (since Secret Tryst is my scent for the weekend!). I agree with you on Initio Psychedelic Love, (I am on my 2nd bottle) and did you see that Initio has a new fragrance coming out!! Great Video, keep em coming!

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank youuuuu! 💖💖💖 Madison Avenue would be PERFECT for a beginner - you are right! So pretty. And let me find out Secret Tryst is a good date night frag?! 😲 I sampled it a while back and enjoyed it but decided on Cavort. Now I want to revisit Secret Tryst!

[@thursdaymorningthoughts]

Love this list!!

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank youuuuu 💖💖💖

[@margaretmcgarry398]

I love your recommendations! I have many fragrances from each of these houses on my wish list, so it’s nice to know where you recommend starting. My first and only Amouage (so far) is Honour Woman. I feel so validated! She is such a lovely, timeless floral with just a little mystery hiding in there. My one and only Xerjoff is Apollonia, and it’s another true love for me. Next up for me is probably something from PDM or Mizensir or another Amouage… Right after I win the lottery. lol.

[@VeronicaSays]

Yes, girl! Let's all get those lottery tickets! 😂 Glad you're enjoying Honour Woman. What a beauty! 💖🥰💖🥰

[@niklaus009]

Great video Veronica and awesome video concept. Look forward to the designer version. Could you please do a video on Best Unisex Fragrances? I’ve realised that I’m not too into very feminine scents and much prefer unisex profiles

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you so much! 💖 Hhhmmm... let me think about what a unisex video would look like. It would be hard to decide what goes in. Any ideas?

Thanks for sharing these gems ❤ Have a great Sunday ❤

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you, Frances! You too! 💖🥰💖🥰

[@CatherineBriseboisCatWoods]

Hi Veronica. 🙂 These are good picks. 👍 All of them can be pleasing and not too scary. To my nose, Psychedelic Love smells like a gentle, sweeter and much friendlier Black Orchid. My first Initio was Musk Therapy. If you like musk, it's an easy pick. My first PDM was Casili, mostly because I had a Delina Exclusif dupe and had smelled other Delina dupes. For M. Micallef, Note Vanillé would probably be an easy choice as a first purchase (or Ylang and Gold). This was really fun. 😊

[@VeronicaSays]

Thank you! 💖 And thanks for sharing some of your picks. I almost chose Musk Therapy as the easy reach for Initio. 👍

[@CatherineBriseboisCatWoods]

My 2nd BDK was Pas ce Soir... First Nishane was Hundred Silent Ways... Fourth Xerjoff was Dama Bianca... First Bond No9 was New York Nights... All of these houses have something for everyone.

Hi Veronica! This is such an interesting and fun video! I always enjoy hearing your thoughts and look forward to your designer picks. I was surprised about your Kayali selection. I haven’t sniffed Utopia Vanilla Coco, but I think coconut scents can be iffy. My choice for the house of Initio is Musk Therapy. - Ms. Charlette

[@VeronicaSays]

Hiiii! 💖🥰 Coconut can be iffy for sure, but so can all other notes depending on a person's taste. I love the creamy coconut in the Kayali! And I agree - Musk Therapy is an easy reach. So Fresh! 💖💖💖
