Hi Joanna! This is my kind of list. Great video! Glad to see Theodoros Kalotinis getting some love. Such high quality fragrances and affordable. I bought Caramel Oud a few weeks ago. Sometimes I struggle with oud, but the caramel balances it out, and that sweet gooey caramel helps the oud from becoming too skanky. It's divine! I also got a sample size of Panettone. This is straight-up Christmas in a bottle. Lots of spices and boozy fruits. Khamrah, by Lattafa is my trusty standby. This will always be in my collection. It's not an Angel's Share Dupe. It does it's own thing with those juicy date notes. Lattafa has a new fragrance, Khamrah Qahwa. It is a flanker that has coffee notes and white flowers in the background. It has a similar opening, but it is different in the dry down. I love lemony gourmonds, and Lira is the most sophisticated one I own with those lovely spices in the background. I also love Akro Bake. Fantastic! It is a very realistic lemon cookie scent. The perfumer for this (Olivier Cresp) also designed Dolce & Gabanna's Devotion. Another love of mine... ❤

Thanks for sharing 🥰 I agree with your thoughts about these fragrances. They all smell delicious and yes Theodoros Kalotinis makes the most photorealistic gourmands with high quality ingredients with such an affordable price. My Qahwa is on the way and sooner I’ll share my thoughts 💕

For my Christmas Eve scent I was also planning to wear my sample of Jany! Its sillage is so beautiful and addictive. For Christmas day I'm relying on Kismet Angel, which reminds me of Angel's Share. Merry Christmas/Maligayang Pasko, Joanna! May all your fragrant dreams be fulfilled! 🎄💝

I can imagine Jany under the weather in 🇵🇭.. It is sweet but will still wearable. Yes Kismet Angel is very similar anyway to Angel’s Share. Nice choice. Thank you Marie! I hope you and your loved ones enjoy the holiday season ✨

I love your list and the amazing descriptions about your gourmands. I think TK caramel oud very good and very potent; Khamrah it’s amazing apple pie with cinnamon and Devotion for me it’s a dessert, Nebras gold for me it’s a chocolate vibe but I love more RM 1970😍…thanks Joanna for one more lovely video ❤. Big kisses

What about the longevity and projection of Panettone?!

I’m wondering too…

It lasts around 6-8hrs with moderate projection… It’s not a beast mode…

I gotta buy another bottle of Italica because it has unexpectedly become a winter workhorse for me. This came as a surprise as I expected to be jumping into ouds/tobacco this season. I wore Panettone for a birthday party last week. Great fragrance. I've also worn a lot of Rouge Saray by Atelier Des Ors, a plum gourmand scent, because, if you go light on the sprays, you can wear it in moderate as well as cool weather. I haven't tried Jany yet. Is it unisex or strictly feminine to you?
@jmercadobeauty Жыл бұрын
I love Italica since first sniff. If you like Panettone I think you’ll like Jany. They have same gourmand level. If you feel like Panettone is unisex, Jany is same 😊

Hi Joanna, I think my Christmas Eve scent will be Vangelis by Sylvaine Delacourte and my mom bought me Khamrah as a Christmas gift so I’m excited 🎅🏼✨ I love watching your videos and I find myself wondering what your scent of that day is in each of them. I think it would be nice if you could add this info at the beginning of your videos. Enjoy the holidays ✨🙊

@@jmercadobeautyplease don’t do that! I absolutely love your slow, measured presentation. It’s so calming and uncluttered. I do not watch your channel to listen to piped in music for entertainment. I am here to listen carefully to what you are saying. I sometimes listen to your channel while cooking or cleaning. No distracting music please….no need and would only detract from the calm vibe of the presentation. (Just my opinion of course)
