TOP 10 PERFUMES EVERYONE IS WEARING IN PARIS - most popular perfumes in Paris

Thanks for the video! Just a suggestion, If you’re not going to write the names of the perfumes in the description, please have them written on the video. It would make it easier to follow

[@judimeyers769]

I very much agree! And leave the names on the screen long enough to see them! I missed a few of these today because I don’t speak French and could not read the bottles. A wonderful video that is very informative however.

When my grandmother was 102 and towards the end of her time often unconscious and not responsive, I wafted Goutal’s Petite Cherie directly under her nose and a definite almost childlike smile of pleasure lit her face, despite closed eyes and no other sign of awareness. Beautiful memory and shows the power of scent.

[@HarrisPilton789]

Absolutely! The connection between scent and memories is so amazing!

[@chandrikakarunarathna4221]

How can we buy them?

[@quackslikeaduck]

So intriguing that it occurred to you to do that. A charming story, thank you.

[@victoriam.6430]

I love Un jardin sur le Nil. It’s so beautiful and long lasting and perfect on a hot summer day!

[@katy3mpress]

Great video. According to the book The Scent of Empires, Ernest Beaux was inspired by the odor of the Arctic Circle when he created the aldehydes that went into Chanel no 5.

[@vt5533]

In my 30s, I wore Chanel No. 5, Shalimar, and Annik Goutal (cannot recall the scent). I had to stop wearing Chanel No. 5 because I got headaches from it. Also, in the U.S., I find that most people I am around do not appreciate perfume, as many also get headaches. I wonder if you know of any popular perfumes that are more natural in content. Thank you for the wonderful video! I suggest you write the names of the perfumes because the bottles are not shown long enough to catch all the names. 💝

Aquarelle is sold in the US and are devoid of toxic synthetic ingredients

[@Kae-ToyaLee]

Coco Madamoiselle for the win. Gabrielle is lovely too.

[@teremertz]

My everyday scent is the French perfume Perles de Lalique. I get compliments everywhere I go, from people of all ages and all walks of life. There is something so soft, spicy, and universally appealing in the scent.

[@Shishi03]

It is the iso- e what is so incredible in perles d L. It is outstansing, the scent is warm and cold all at once. Amazing

[@filizahmet8935]

Thank You, would love to see the perfume names printed on screen to identify for easily😊

[@elidin-tr7pj]

I like Rive Gauche, Coco, n. 5, Gabrielle, also Izia from Sisley. Miss Dior and La vie est belle is too sweet for me.

[@thelaralavery]

Jour d'Hermés is my summer signature scent! A compliment getter 😍

[@malgroszek4247]

I have two of Hermès ones, yay! I made notes to purchase more 😊! Thank you! I like this clean, lean, fresh notes 😊

[@zsofiakohalmi4186]

Coco Mademoiselle has been my Spring/Summer perfume and Coco Noir Autumn/Winter ❤❤❤

[@bellathereader1328]

Some on your list I love: Hermes, Chanel, and Guerlain. But I really can't stand La Vie est Belle, Chloe, or Libre. After watching your video, I spritzed some Sur de Nil and ordered a sample of Petite Cherie!!

[@sharoncruz9901]

I’ve heard that Libre edt is very popular in Paris - it’s a light floral version of the new fragrance. I’ve loved Rive Gauche for so long. I’m surprised it’s popular at the moment! Such a chic and elegant Parisian smell to my nose. ❤❤❤

[@mariaschnatz528]

I used Rive Gauche about 40 years ago …

[@mariadolorsgm2]

Hola🥰 I love wear Chloé and N° 5 😍😍 and Diorissimo edp is one of my favorite too🥰 I'm from Spain but I think my heart is a little french 🤭🤭

Just a bit of information - Mitsouko is Dame Maggie Smith’s favourite perfume.

[@jaybon625]

Ooh la la I have most of those. Trying to grow my gurlain collection its so pretty, elegant, Iconic

[@itsmeGeorgina]

You have very good perfume videos !! Yes, fragrance is indeed an important part of style, and often overlooked ! My favourite at the moment is Chanel eau Premiere, extremely versatile and also put together😊

[@andreabutiong525]

Thank you for the video!!! I just visited Paris a couple weeks ago and hoarded Fragonard and Goutal. I love their scents so much! I became such a perfume snob after Paris 😆

Hello Victoria, I will more focus on content about Paris in the next weeks

[@aurearodriguez4537]

Try Houbigant Quelque Flores.

[@honeybeequeen5109]

I’m an American and I love the tradition of French perfumery. It’s hard here though because a lot of the beautiful French perfumes that I like (Rive Gauche, Mitsouko, Chanel no 5) are called “old lady perfume”. Here the most popular fragrances tend to be sweet and cloying, most geared towards young women who want to smell like candy and cupcakes. The only American perfumes I like are from Estée Lauder and I believe were developed more in the French tradition of beautiful florals and aldehydes (White Linen, Pleasures).

[@LizLyonsPhD]

Oh, this is great. I forgot about Annick Goutal -- I have a bottle of Folie d'un Soir somewhere that I now want to get out again. My favorite Guerlain overall is Mitsouko, likely because it has Chypre and I love Chypre. I love Chanel No. 5 and not so much Coco Mademoiselle, for some reason. I have La Vie est Belle and like it for outdoors, summers. I have no Dior or Hermes perfumes and the only YSL that I have is Libre, which I don't like at all. But, I am working on some of the list you gave me earlier and will likely buy those next. This was lovely, Alice.

[@Aliceinparisofficial]

Hello Liz, Hermes perfumes are really great and Parisian swear by it. It is highly valued here. The jardin collection is great. Try Rive Gauche, it is a masterpiece still wear by Parisian. Thank you !

[@LizLyonsPhD]

@@Aliceinparisofficial I will put Rive Gauche on the list. There is an Hermes store near me and I will have to make an appointment to go and smell whatever they have. Thank you!

[@katjack2780]

My favorite perfumes are the early classics from Guerlain; not so much the newer ones. Rive Gauche was one of my first loves and I still wear it, as well as the earlier YSL perfumes. I do not care for Chanel No.5, but love No.19 Poudre, Bel Respiro and Misia. My favorite Diors are the vintage Miss Dior Cherie and the original Poison. I love practically everything from Hermes, especially the "Jardin" series.

[@zazilicious]

I definitely agree for Shalimar, Chloe and Coco Mademoiselle

[@CA.Antioch]

Very lovely video! Any chance you can list the names of the perfumes?

[@Ginpad]

I like Rive Gauche and Coco (not Mademoiselle Coco), eau de Soir, and Annick Goutal’s Passion. My favourite perfume is Bottega Veneta but it’s very hard to find now. Thank you for the video. 👏❤

[@JRagaz]

Uiii, your post comes just at the right time ...😍. I'm looking for something new ... 🤔🙄. My Chloé Nomad is empty, now I'm spoiled for choice ...😅. Thank you for your inspiring and professionally presented post ... 😇👌❤

[@michelline.nj.saliba]

Chanel No. 5 has been my favorite for many years. I always get lots of compliments when I wear it. Since perfume is very personal due to one's body PH system, it will smell unique and different on everyone. ❤

[@virginiav.1172]

Thank you for your recommendations and I feel very in synch with your choices. I did have to replay some parts of the video because, although your accent is very charming, it is at times a little difficult to understand. It would have been helpful to include the names of the perfumes in the description box, since I was confused on what the last one was called. Thanks!

[@aishamahgoubable]

General question Are perfumes in the us more diluted that same perfume in Europe My Chanel bought abroad smell stronger and last longer! Is there a reason for that?

[@claudia5446]

I love all your suggestions of perfumes. I had / have most of them. Lately I decided to add all the must have all time classics in my collection. Guerlain Shalimar I hated in my 20's but now I really love it. Same person - same nose but different mood I guess. I choose a perfume according to everyday's mood. This is why I think it is important to have perfumes from all categories....

[@virginiav.1172]

I agree about Shalimar and will give it another try since I am older. I know this happened to me with Chanel #5. I never thought I would own a bottle, but now that I am "mature" it has a different sort of appeal. I do think you have to have a certain maturity to wear it, and perhaps this is true with Shalimar as well.

[@claudia5446]

@@virginiav.1172 I totally agree. A Chanel representative told me that when we have our menstrual days we should not try perfumes because they are different in our skin. I noticed also that when I am in a good mood perfumes tend to have a brighter performance... Pure Chemistry...

[@virginiav.1172]

How very interesting! I had never heard this before.

[@blktauna]

I'm the opposite. I used to love Shalimar but when I tried it recently it was not as I remembered it. And I still don't like No5 lol. But yes our tastes really do change over the years.

Shalimar is amazing. My wife wears the parfum. Joyeux Noel!

[@eugenesheshenin2060]

Bonjour! I discovered way back this fantastic vintage perfume "Tabac Blonde". I understand it is still produced and available to purchase. Absolutely lovely and sophisticated but quite unusual especially for modern taste. I was told that this one is super insider parisian perfume since it was introduced in 1920ies as the first perfume for smoking women. Back then it was for the first time allowed for women to smoke on the street. Is that right or just a city legend?

[@Aliceinparisofficial]

Tabac blond has been reformulated by Caron two years ago so forget the original first version. I used to wear the original one

[@HarrisPilton789]

I think it’s funny Parisians find YSL Libre tacky. I love it!

[@divineangelic2727]

Hi Alice all these perfumes are mass produced ?

[@leslieholland6477]

I love wearing Chanel Cuir de Russie, the original Miss Dior, Sisley Eau du Soir. There is also Vetiver by Elizabeth W of San Francisco.

[@v.2080]

I always loved Joy. Is that not popular any longer?

[@PB_324]

Yes! It's nice not smelling like everyone else. I'm the only one I know who wears this. That being said I'm happy it's popular in Paris. I'd hate to see this gem discontinued due to dwindling sales. Nothing on earth like her.

[@trixischongeist9924]

I also like "Les Rita Mitsouko", great music!

[@JRagaz]

I'm in the process of choosing all the names of your perfumes. Look in the transcript, but the spelling is often wrong. There are KZbinrs who correct their transcripts, for example Justine Laconte, which helps a lot when you're looking up brand names, but also when you're speaking a foreign language and don't understand every single word spoken. Could be an idea for you! Sincerely. Will test perfumes in the next few days! Best regards ... 💙💜❤

[@JRagaz]

@@NoBadEnergy1 KZbin automatically generates a transcript for each video. Below the video on the right there are three horizontal dots. Click it, then appears "Transcript", click that and you will see the spoken text writen on the right side of the screen. If someone has native English and clear pronunciation and needs common words, it's quite good. Otherwise there are funny translations. Since I don't speak English very well, I sometimes look up words in the transcript, a general word or a fashion brand, etc. Sometimes it helps, sometimes not. There are KZbinrs who correct their transcripts, which of course amasing.

When you put perfume, please stay discreet and don't shower in it. Some of us are very allergic and can get very sick, as all these perfumes, yes, even the expensive and couture ones, are 100% synthetic, even toxic. French companies offer natural perfumes made with real plant extracts, almost impossible to find in the US alas, and those are much better. I have a bottle of Joy from Jean PATOU from the 50's (my grand-mother collection), and at the time, it was 100% natural. A real gem. They do not make those anymore.

Well Guerlain smells terrible, was just smelling six different scents the other day and they smell outdated. Like something my mother would wear in the 90’s. Not modern, not sexy just outdated.
