Top 10 Best Green Perfumes on Persolaise Love At First Scent episode 208

[@liselotteamblat6953]

I wore a sample of N°19 and felt so good wearing it, elegant, mind clearing and happy! And Herba Fresca is the most green and yet golden scent, as if you drink a traditional mint tea in an appropriate glass with a gold rim. I tried the very interesting Nerolia Vetiver yesterday and rewatched your review which made me think there is some green aspect.

[@Persolaise]

I love your description of HF, Liselotte.

[@PhilipHGaskin]

Happy and honored to have five on your list : Cristalle, 19, Herba Fresca, Mediterranee, and Bel Respiro, the latter of which I recently found a sealed unopened bottle of the EDT. I’m over the moon about it! Keep breathing well yourself there. Thanks as always for these 🙏🏽

[@Persolaise]

Thanks for watching. And treasure that edt.

[@pattorelli3451]

I love green fragrances and own half of your list. Gucci Envy was a favorite back in the day, and I still have some left in the bottle. My most recent purchase on eBay was a mostly full bottle of Bel Respiro in the edt. Such a beautiful perfume. I’m having trouble wearing anything else this summer. Best wishes for a relaxing and restorative vacation!

[@Persolaise]

Treasure that edt. And thanks for watching.

[@ayafresh]

Chanel Cristalle is an enticing idea! My Mom wore Chanel No. 5 (only), and I love green! Thank you! Must try!

[@Persolaise]

Cristalle is a must-try.

[@mwmsjuly19]

Once again, I must compliment your attire -- perfectly on the nose for the subject matter! Have a wonderful break!

[@Persolaise]

Very kind, thank you. All good wishes to you too.

[@elladasavcenko9106]

I can't believe retailers are saying they can hardly sell one bottle of No 19 a year. Chanel No 19 is a masterpiece. It is my most favourite. I consider it my "comfort zone" perfume. There is nothing like No 19.

[@Persolaise]

It is an absolute classic. Thanks for watching.

[@RebeccaBuhler]

I went into a Chanel store recently in Palm Beach and they only had the tester :(

[@bellboots]

Finding 19 and Bel Respiro has become a challenge outside of international airport hubs, at least.

[@FrankieH-79]

@@bellbootsI can easily find 19 but not bel respiro

[@Sarah-gf9ed]

I love Green scents! Chanel 19 EDT Cristalle EDT Guerlain's Vetiver and Herba Fresca are ones I love. Penhaligons English Fern is another favourite but they sadly discontinued it. Bel Respiro EDT sounds lovely! It sounds very much like my ADP Mirto De Panera which is another favourite of mine.

[@Persolaise]

Bel Respiro edt is just wonderful. Thanks for watching.

[@gazzabethyname]

Ohhh top 10 vetiver. Cant wait for that one. The storm is great background noise for a video. Take care and enjoy your break.

[@Persolaise]

Thank you. The storm was quite dramatic.

Omg .....i never knew you grew up in sharjah.Great stream by the way . Green has always been something i would like to explore so this video helps a lot.

Excellent - thanks for watching. And yes, I lived in Al Khan area.

[@danbowman9294]

I enjoy your reviews because you are never vicious or catty like some others ( no names ). Enjoy your vacation.

[@Persolaise]

I think some would disagree. But even when I'm being negative, I do try to keep things fairly considered. Thanks for watching.

[@gregharvey2173]

Great broadcast. My favorites greens include Rogue's Chypre-Siam and Mousse Iluminee, Mriga by Prin and Haeckel's Pegwell Bay. And Norne :)

[@Persolaise]

Several on that list that I need to check out. Many thanks for watching.

[@elowyn9664]

How amazing you describe Christalle, thank you! However, I would like to highlight "Estee Lauder Private Collection Jasmine White Moss", now sadly discontinued. The first time I smelled 'Jasmine White Moss' my thoughts immediately drifted into thinking this would be Galadriel's scent. Bright as the light that lingers, superbly balanced wood, lush green, white florals. Translucent. It's white starlight and sparkling diamonds. Absolutely beautiful. If you don't have it already, I hope you succeed in finding it.

[@Persolaise]

Thanks very much for that wonderful description.

[@eem2562]

Missed most of the live but glad you began with 19 poudre, smell like expensive green baby powder, I love it

[@Persolaise]

That's a great description. Thanks for watching.

[@LiaAndrews]

Agreed! It is the safe no. 19.

[@nadima1695]

Ohno! I just discovered your channel and I love it so much. But luckily I haven’t watched your older video’s yet. Thanks for the content!

[@Persolaise]

Not at all: thank YOU for watching.

[@klaas020]

Hello Persolaise, I hope you are enjoying your vacation somewhere nice. I certainly did and was happy to catch your video when I got back home. Green and vetiver scents are my favorite so you seem to be catering just for me here ;-) I love most of the perfumes you mention (Bel Respiro, Cristalle, Corsica Furioso, Un Jardin en Méditerranée) and as always you introduce me a few that I didn't even know existed! I would love to try the Cartier! My favorite greens at the moment are good old Eau de Campagne (by a very young Jean Claude Ellena for Sisley) and Dryad from Papillon. I also love Hinoki by Comme des Garçons, though that leans very much towards woody / piney / coniferous territory. It still smells green to me though. Thank you for another lovely video!

[@Persolaise]

And thank YOU for watching. Do try to find the Cartier.

[@venusavenue1722]

Missed it too, but happy to watch it now. I'm hearing the storm, not happy though to find out that this is you last episode in a while. I don't really like greenS, but happy to hear all about your favourites! 💜

[@Persolaise]

The storm was pretty loud. Thanks for watching.

[@lynnleglaire4819]

I’m a huge fan of Green Spell. Chanel 19 extrait is such a wonderful smell. I’ve got a small bottle of it and rarely wear it, but I douse myself in the edp or edt often. I can’t wait to try the Corsica Furiosa. The green genre looks great on you and it’s great bottled. Have a great holiday! Thank you for the video.

[@Persolaise]

Not at all -- thank YOU for watching.

[@missylucy9933]

I’m late to this video but just wanted to say I discovered Guerlain Herba Fresca because of you and I love it thank you. I’ve always been drawn to green fragrances and have worn Chanel No 19 and Cristalle throughout my life. Now I realise I’m a geek!

[@Persolaise]

Hooray for geeks! Thanks very much for watching.

[@lordcharfield]

Have a great summer Dariush! Look forward to catching up with your channel in September.

[@Persolaise]

Thanks very much.

[@cheapimitation2242]

The universe works in mysterious ways, I just recently did the fragrance experience offered at the Chanel Atelier Beaute here in NYC where you blind sniff their entire line and pick your favorite 3 to take samples home. And my number 1 choice was one I had never tried before that was totally off my radar: Cristalle! And behold the very next day you posted the old Cristalle ad on IG so I came to watch this video. The universe is telling me I need Cristalle in my life, now if only it would become in stock on their website :-(

[@Persolaise]

I love stories like this. Thank you so much for sharing and for watching.

[@katherinemarystewart8170]

I tried Cristalle years ago in Debenhams. Quite liked it but was so obsessed about No19 at the time that I didn’t pay it enough attention. Over the years, I just keep finding myself thinking, “Must go back to Cristalle again, really want to taste it”. It’s like it is haunting me…

[@Persolaise]

Time to seek it out, then. Thanks for watching.

[@baffinisland6227]

Really appreciate the time segmentation. Michaela

[@Persolaise]

No problem. Thanks for watching.

[@peterkormendi7843]

i seem to be the only one who prefer Bel Respiro EDP over EDT. EDT is also wonderfull but it gives too much at first and after that i felt in a constant debt spiral to get that first sniff back. EDP is a bit deeper and bit more lineal but still complex enough. I think being linear is something that fits green scents better than other genres. I also like Synth. Jungle for giving that bitter galbanium longer than the ones like 19 (though 19 is 20 times better but there too: the opening is so nice and than it just goes and evolves itseld some other wonderfull scent so i like that better but good to have a long lasting bitter formula like S. Jungle so i dont have to be in panic when 19 just morphs from the opening. So one can enjoy the 19 better since S.Jungle i would say :)).

[@Persolaise]

Thanks for taking the time to write this. Yes, the edp definitely doesn’t have quite the same initial ‘burst’.

[@peggyhui901]

Yessss, finally you've brought up Chanel no.19 Poudre!! Hurray!! LOVE IT personally. Yes, it's powdery but only after it's warmed up at the dry down. It's not so green that it flicks you between the eyebrows like most greens. Glad that you don't mind it as you're not crazy into powdery scents. And Cristalle..ahh..no need to say anymore..Eau Dynamisante, always a go to when the weather is searing.

[@Persolaise]

Yes, I enjoyed revisiting Poudré. Thanks for watching, Peggy.

[@connielou8666]

Hi Persolaise! Went to London yesterday and purchased Serge Luten’s À la Nuit on your recommendation - my grandfather has recently moved near to me and he has a beautiful (and huge) Jasmin plant growing up the garage wall- and that scent is reminding me of this summer and that plant. I’m a new subscriber and have been binge watching your videos, and now I’ve got my mum watching you too 😂 yet to make a live though

[@Persolaise]

Wow, so kind of you both to watch. And enjoy the Lutens.

[@armallthetime]

Very nice list, I have my eyes out for Bel Respiro EDT! My favorite green scents are Dusita's Le Pavillon d'or and Haeckels' Pegwell Bay.

[@Persolaise]

Many thanks for watching.

[@cubbylevi1764]

I’m so glad I found your channel. You have such a warm professional manner about you. I love Herba Fresca…and the toothpaste aspect of it.😃 Lily of the Valley? Gorgeous! When I wear it in summer (Oklahoma), bees chase me😖. HF lasts nicely on my skin. You need more subscribers!

[@Persolaise]

Thanks very much indeed. Keep wearing that Guerlain if it’s good for the bees!

[@ashfaque_1]

Sorry my Liege, I missed the live. I love green perfumes a lot - Nuit de Bakelite (NG), Le Rayon Vert (Sultan Pasha Attars), Chypre Chrysantheme (SPA), C°19, Vol de Nuit (Extrait), Dryad (Papillion), SOMA (NOT Perfumes), and some oud oils (not all) from Sri Lanka, Indonesia, and Philippines neat. I mention oud oils from those locations here because they are gorgeous perfumes on their own for their herbal, sometime leathery and sometimes musky, and intensely vernal qualities. The way they unfold on skin is truly spectacular. I wear them quite frequently - especially in warmer weather when I can't wear my Hindi ouds as much and as frequently as I like to. Please come back soon!

[@Persolaise]

That's a great list. As always, thanks for watching.

[@LiaAndrews]

Ashfaque do you have recommendations for oud perfumes in this genre or are these just pure oud oils?

[@ashfaque_1]

@@LiaAndrews Hi Lia. I was referring to some pure oud oils sold by some artisan oud houses. If you want to dig deeper, check Ouddict & Oudville (oud-dedicated forums).

[@Persolaise]

[@LiaAndrews]

I am most drawn to spicy ambers and the feeling of warmth in perfume. I sought out Herba Fresca and Bel Respiro because of your previous reviews, and really love that style for the humid heat of summer. I find the No.19 and Cristalle style greens very challenging to wear. It is not so much the green as the emotional iciness I find so difficult. This emotional response makes me curious. It makes me want to wear them as a form of exposure therapy to face my psychological discomfort.

[@Persolaise]

Ah, fascinating. Who knows what certain perfumes might help us ‘uncover’. Thanks for watching.

[@candybox5360]

Hello! I am marathoning your channel selections...I was just yesterday prowling for a Gucci Envy EDP, and having no luck. Soo sad. Looked at chanel for Cristalle EDP. Nope. Maybe you will discuss possible dupes I don't know already! Loving the channel.

Hermes Un Jardin En Mediterranee leaning feminine? I think not! I'm not sure if I'd class it as a 'true green' either - I agree there's a huge woody element to it that makes it so much more than just that. I think there's even a juniper/eucalupytus accord in there. But maybe that's me.

[@ayafresh]

You're welcome, and thank you for responding to all of our comments on your helpful videos! It would be exciting to see a review on those, especially since Mixed Emotions is a (relatively) new release from Byredo. I think I may have quickly sniffed it in the store and did not immediately love it, but I would need to give it a chance and see (particularly if it really smells anything like the green (or black) tea I adore and could drink nonstop if it wouldn't bring on a raging headache from caffeine overdose!). Still looking for that perfect green/citrus scent for work/errands/outside, and Panarama sounds like a distinct possibility! Thanks for that!
