Perfume preference is very personal - and each person's chemistry changes it, so what you love on someone else may smell awful on you. I desperately wish I could find my favorite OLD scents ( BEFORE they were secretly "updated")

@oseasviewer7108 4 ай бұрын

Fragrance is no longer manufactured using natural components - the bulk of fragrances are wholly synthetic produced by a group called International Flavours and & Fragrances. (They produce all the smells one associates with cleaning products the fragrance in cosmetics, hygiene & personal care products and flavourings used in food manufacturing). They produce the so called raw materials that locations like Grasse in the south of France use to formulate the house brand perfume releases. A team of 'noses' as they are called will create the fragrance commissioned by a luxury brand. Because of cost there are a great deal of substitutions in the formulations therefore old favourites will inevitably change due to cost and focus on profit margin. More often than not the bottle is more expensive than the fragrance.

Locating old formulas will be difficult and also because time is never kind to natural ingredients. Instead seek out new experiences - recently I sampled a range from Salvatore Ferragamo called Storie de SETA of which there are 4 or 5 themes only 2 had any interest for me - on the skin it's quite light and soothing in its notes profile - worth testing on the skin. Try them on different days but don't commit to buy until the right assembly of notes are there for you.

@ml_haskell3854 4 ай бұрын

Just one technical pointer: all of these fragrances were designed--actually, *engineered*--to be used on skin. And part of the excitement of perfume is that it may smell good on you, it may not. I passed a woman in a store wearing something lovely, and I asked her what she was wearing--Good Girl. That made me sad--I know for a fact it doesn't smell like that on me.

@merriemisfit8406 4 ай бұрын

Right. Through lots and lots of sampling, I've learned a couple of "rules of thumb" about "parfums" in general: (1) To me, anything by Chanel will smell atrocious on me. (2) To me, anything by Yves Saint Laurent will smell intoxicating on me. I can't say how they smell to anybody else -- I think the only time anybody ever asked me what I was wearing because it smelled good, it was Armani Mania.

Well, funny thing is that many of these parfumes are rated very high by reviewers, who actually understand the art of perfumery in the first place. It only proves one thing - young girls' noses aren't trained enough to appreciate the more sofisticated smells. I don't think I'm an "old lady" (agreeing with others you should really ditch that phrase), yet I respect many of these perfumes and have them in my collection for an occasional moment. (Poison Dior, Opium YSL, Chanel 5).And yes, I've trained my nose and have been studying perfumes for some time, now. My top #1 will always be Shalimar EDP.

Hi Anna, thanks for your review.

Anyway, maybe the time has come to ditch that line. I'm an 'old lady' and I do not smell like cheese - I'm ekeing out my last few precious drops of Tiempe Passate (Antonia's Flowers), bought for about AU$200 or 300 when it first came out in the 90s!

About 30 years ago a work colleague's boyfriend was a perfumist (he custom made perfumes) and had the gift of extra sensory smell. He could literally walk around a room of 100s of people and tell every person the perfume/after shave, shampoo/conditioner and skin moisturizer they were wearing purely by smell. Not only that he could advise the person what they "should" be wearing based on the emission of natural aroma from their body. He told me that every perfume smells differently on each individual because of how their own body behaves and that to truly appreciate a fragrance, you should spray some on your wrist then go about your normal day for 2-3 hours before you really sense it and then you will know how it really smells on your skin.

I'm now a collector and I love the rarest perfumes from any olfactive family. Hermès, Guerlain, Sisley and Armani Privé are great houses to start from. I'm kind of sad to see Chanel n°5 was number 1. As someone who has spray all types of perfumes on any person possible, it really depends on the skin. When I spray it on me no 5 has very strong aldehydes, but after a couple of hours, it smells like fresh roses and ppl compliment on me a lot. And it lasts 24 hours so it's worth every penny. Each skin marries each own perfume 🥰, when you love a perfume, the perfume loves you back. And it's a beautiful world to explore if you have an open mind and you let yourself be surprised.

My mother always called Channel No.5 'Corral Number 5'. She utterly hated it and was not shy about announcing her disgust. I turned 20 yrs old in the 80s and Opium was pretty new, I think. It's easy to go overboard with that scent. It seems fairly heavy, even cloying. Shalimar was probably the most popular in the 80s. I never thought Opium smelled like an old lady - for me, that honor belongs to anything by Coty (Emeraude? Introduced in 1921 the same year as Channel No 5.) - but I'm 60, now, so... I find perfumes and their histories very interesting, and wearing historic scents helps the wearer invoke a certain identity for special occasions. My favorite is called 'Jicky' by Guerlain. It dates back to 1889 and was named for the perfumer's mistress. There are hints of musk in it, but I don't find it too heavy - as long as you use it judiciously. Ambergris is an oily/waxy material that comes from the digestive system of sperm whales. Super expensive and highly valued, like most animal-related ingredients - musk notably (especially if it required the death of the animal to obtain), it has been replaced by chemical alternatives. Jeepers, I need to shut up, now.

I was just talking to my husband about how we have become insensitive to others’ feelings as we become more and more anonymous online.

@cloudyharbour7047 Ай бұрын

Old is relative and at 48, I certainly would be offended if someone would label me as middle-aged or old because not only do i look much younger than what you would picture an average end 40ish woman but truth is, more and more women do look and and dress timeless. When you can pull that off, you should also go cor your own signature scent which smells best with your body chemistry. You will know what suits you with the one you are most complemented on. Many of the ones she mentioned are rather mainstream yet not "bad" smelling as there is much worse out there. This video doesn't make much sense but old lady style is a far reach. Old fashioned or timeless classy signature scent - you decide. Very weird judgy commentary

I wear Beautiful by Estee Lauder, and don't care what anyone says. EVERYTIME I wear it, some man will always stop me and ask what it is. I am 60 and have long hair, and once a man stopped me to smell my hair. You can't make this stuff up. I just wear it on the skin and a tiny amount of the lotion on my hair. Several weeks ago my mother and I went to see a performance and couldn't find a seat. We exited by an usher, and one of them followed me and directed us up the elevator to two lovely seats. I believe this smells differently on everyone. I'm not beautiful, but my perfume is.

Although I'm a bit late to the party, I must say that Baccarat Rouge must NEVER be sprayed on paper. When I first smelt it on a piece of paper I was absolutely disgusted and couldn't understand how someone can like this abhorrent chemical weapon at such an ungodly price. But then I thought of returning to the shop in a month and then sprayed it directly on my skin. And God almighty! the scent started playing out gorgeously. This is a molecular perfume so it plays tricks when on skin. The smell is actually stronger at a distance rather than when you try smelling it directly from the skin. It absolutely needs to mix with your body chemistry to really shine. And it wraps you in a cozy warm and sweet bubble of luxury.

On the other hand, I tried out the original Elizabeth Arden Red Door (the new one is awful).

I wear several of these and Chanel #5 is a classic I've always loved (and worn). Lots of things change the smell of what's in the bottle: different body oil, body heat, what people eat comes out their pores (like garlic or -ick- beer), if a person smokes, if they're diseased, etc. In addition, many people lose some of their sense of smell as they age, and then there's Covid-19 that wreaked havoc on mine. The headaches come from (I believe) the floral based scents vs. vanilla based. The flowers are dried in a cool, dark, damp cellar and they get moldy. So, if you don't do well with mold, avoid flower based scents.

It depends on how it reacts with your body chemistry.

I think when a perfume is really popular it can get a disproportionate amount of hate. Chanel #5 is an all time classic for a reason and BR540 might be the most cloned and copied scent DNA at this moment. So while people gonna hate, I’d be willing to be the number of people who love those greatly outnumber the hate.

I had a good laugh over the descriptions! Old-lady perfumes remind me of my grandmother, so while I may not like the scent for me, it brings back pleasant memories.

Please stop describing the bad scents as old fashioned or “old lady “ it's insulting. We are finally able to afford the expense perfumes we love! So STOP!

Hi Anna, you're meant to smell coffee beans between perfumes, A sales assistant in a fragrance department offered us a bowl of coffee beans between each perfume as it neutralises the smell. But great vlog, enjoyed it.

Coffee beans don't work in the way we are told it does, actually supposed to smell your own skin and I say this as I use to work for a very niche specialist perfumer.

Coffee beans will make your nose more tired. The best thing to do is smell clean skin.

Anna, you need to know what Ambergris is, and how it’s connected to the making of fragrances. Especially the top end products. When you look into it, you’ll understand why. 😮

@@jacky3580 it's sperm whale vomit. It is most used as a fragrance "fix", to hold less stable scents. It also has a pleasant aroma, not fishy or gross at all. Most of the cost of a perfume is in the rarity of the ingredients. Ambergris is pretty rare. So is Oud and several other ingredients. Thankfully, science has been able to mimic many of the rare ingredients making them both easier to source and more ethical to use.

I own 6 of these and love them. I do believe that scent perception is very personal. Angel especially is one of my favorites and I get complimented whenever I wear it. And I’m glad they don’t retire perfumes.

Interesting... youtube recommended this vid to me as I've been researching the best and most loved perfumes as I'm looking for a new scent. Your list of most hated is almost the exact same list I've consistently seen as most loved (not all of them, but at least 5 of them?).... So interesting... lol

It's interesting that almost all of mentioned parfumes often are on many lists of the best parfumes. The most of them are strong fragrances with big aura and longevity. I personally appreciate that quality and really love some of them. It's all a matter of personal preference...
