I love layering, I do it almost every day. I’m sure people would like a layering 101, me too I guess, but I kinda love that layering is this jazzy, no rules thing, I just go by trial and error of what smells good together and it’s so fun to experiment. And I love that by layering you get a real one of a kind signature scent

One tip is to make one of the scents you layer a more singular or simple scent, so that you don’t use two perfumes that are both super busy, complex and loud that fight each other

I absolutely love Not A Perfume!!! I layer it with almost any fragrance I have. The flip side, I’m just not fond of the super dose flanker. It’s supposed to be just one note but I get such a peppery sharp scent from it, almost metallic

Bought the travel size Not A Perfume and I've been using it almost everyday and it has a huge dent it in, so I'm def buying a full bottle! I find myself spraying it on top of my more harsher fragrances and it adds a sweet woody skin-scent to fragrances that are very peppery and masculine (By The Fireplace), or to those very old-school powdery cosmetic smelling perfumes that I'm not the biggest fan of.

i’m a huge fan of jhag not a perfume. i love my bold floral and patchouli fragrances but im a musician and when i play in the orchestra i can’t wear heavy fragrances bc it irritates some musicians’ and makes it harder to play, especially the woodwinds. not a perfume is the perfect thing to wear on these occasions bc it gives me the little bit of a clean, slightly sweet touch without smelling perfumy and irritating my fellow musicians. also, for whatever reason, my skin seems to love this fragrance bc it lasts a very long time on me. love it! 😁

I'm thrilled to learn about the ambergris! I believe it was a favorite of one of King Henry's VIII wives, either KOA or Anne Boleyn. I bought some the synthetic immediately. Such a cool name too. I've been hunting for Monica Lewinsky's scent combo since I caught a whiff in 1998.

I love layering perfumes too. I like to layer Oud for greatness with Kayali lovefest burning Cherry. It makes the last one lasts longer and the first one sweeter. Love this combo so much. Each time I try a new perfume and I found it too much, or if something bothered me in a perfume, I spray JHAG not a perfume on top of it and it changes everything into something I love. I really love this perfume. Now I really want to try le labo another 13 but it is hard to find in France. Thank you for this great vidéo !

Another 13 is a magical thing. I’m based in Singapore and got it cheaper via Selfridges, and I’ve heard Sharida (another fragrance reviewer) mention that some frags are cheaper for you guys in the States too if you purchase from Selfridges. Le Labo has since increased their prices however, so get em’ before another price increase happens!!
