I'm loving hearing about autumn fragrances after such a long incredibly hot (for the UK!) summer. L'Ombre des Merveilles is a lovely and unusual fragrance. I find it spicy but in a cool mineral way, rather than in a dry hot way as you said. You're right, it would work well in the autumn as there is depth to it. Must try Kayali Invite Only Amber after you spoke about the cherry and smokiness. I'm on the hunt for a good long lasting cherry fragrance. Tried loads and love Mancera Wild Cherry and Bodacious by Bodicea the Victorious but the price of Bodacious is eye watering!

Oh I really want to try bodacious! I didn't try the Mancera, how was it? I tried Tom Ford lost cherry and it was gorgeous but gone from my skin in 45 mins 😭 I love cherry, I'd love more cherry fragrances. I would suggest you try kayali burning cherry maybe? I've not tried it yet, so I can't tell you about it, but the testers are in bigger Boots stores. L'ombre de merveilles is a really interesting one. It's an unusual choice for me and I've been enjoying smelling something totally different ☺️ thanks for watching ❤️

I love the Mancera one but don't think it's everyone's cup of tea. I suppose it's a bit synthetic but the cherry is strong and a bit cough syrupy, with powdery notes, which I love. La Petite Robe Noire is similar to my nose at first but fades quickly on my skin. I've tested Lovefest Burning Cherry but it fades to nothing after an hour as does Lost Cherry 😥 I ordered a sample of Kayali Invite Only Amber after watching your video yesterday so it's either Mancera or KIOA! I can't afford Bodacious (nor Duchessa by Gritti). My advice is don't try Bodacious in case you fall in love with it - unless you're able to fork out £240 😲😪

I knew you were going to say "Invite Only"! It's really lovely. I don't get the honey note, thank goodness! I think a full bottle is in my future. I wonder if you charted when you smell the tobacco and when you don't if it would coincide with a hormonal fluctuation. I'm finding more and more that pretty much everything boils down to hormonal cycles for me. From taste to smell to sleep to water retention to mood to skin and hair texture, it's all hormones. I notice it particularly with a certain hair product i have; some days I'm convinced it's gone off, and then a day later it smells DIVINE. That Paco Rabanne sounds DIVINE! Oh dear. Warning: I know someone who actually HATES Vanilla 28 and has a one-minute video coming up this week about it. 😅 Have you tried Pomegranate Noire? I wonder if you'd like it.

Thanks? And I really don't mind sending you a little bit of a rose for when I've got some more vials 😊 Jon and Emily got the last of them this week but I will get on it! It's one to try because it's not how I imagined it at all, it's weirdly quite light and fresh!

Great picks, Claire! My roommate in law school wore Ultraviolet and I loved it. Weirdly, I’ve never owned it, though. Might be time to pick it up. I definitely want to get Mercedes Benz Club Black after you and Joss (and Chris!) recommend it. I’m struggling with a fall scent this year (my small collection has a lot of green, white florals, and citruses in it), but I’m very intrigued with Invite Only now. Thank you!

Hi Kim! I've been really loving Ultraviolet, it's got a lovely fuzzy warmth to it and the violets turn powdery towards the end. It also lasts all day and all night on me, the longevity is astounding 🙂 I was so pleased to finally see club Black, I'd been looking for ages 😂 cos it was sold out online. Yes I see your problem, green and white florals and citrus is great for spring summer but not for autumn winter. Please let me know if you pick anything up for autumn and how you feel about it, I'd love to hear about it! Thanks for watching ❤️

now thats a variant top10 unfortunately i dont like ombre des merveilles on both sexes/genders, i cant accept that its a Hermès perfume and Hermès is one of my fav houses, like in top3... the Kayali ones r all delicious and i did notice u r a big fan of the honey note (and u might like honey tenesse whiskey lol) loved seeing the Mercedes frag at the end, thats a rare one and very good perfume! what else? im sure i had something else in mind to say but forgot...overrall i enjoy ur videos, keep them up!!

Thank you! Yes I can see the eaux de merveilles are not for everyone, they are quite divisive. Ironically I don't like bourbon to drink, I do like Scottish whisky very much though and there are the occasional ones that are matured in bourbon barrels that just have a tinge of that kind of taste rather than being full on. Yes the Mercedes Benz fragrance is very rare now, I could hardly believe that I found a bottle! Thanks for watching!

Violet Ida is stronger than Iris goddess I think and also more if a vintage style in comparison. If you struggle with Iris goddess, violet Ida might also be a struggle, at least in the opening, but probably more because of the carrot seed.

I was actually just wishing I had brought L'ombre des Merveilles with me. Fatale Intense is one that really grew on me too, it was a hate at first sniff, but somehow I quickly became addicted to it. Oddly I love it for a bedtime scent. YAYYYYYYY I love that you tried Ultraviolet!! I'm secretly chuffed as hell to be associated with this scent - there's an Ultraviolet shaped nook in my heart always. 🫠 It's a strange little fragrance for sure, and the odd UFO bottle leaned right into my sensibilities as an angsty teen in the 90s. 🤣 Other Paco frags live on the meh to yuck scale for me, but this one just hits different. Thanks for the mention, Claire! Loved all these picks! ❤
