Veronica!😘 Growing up in New York, we considered summer to be from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Now, living in Arizona, we still have 4 seasons: 1. Not so hot 2. Hot 3. Extremely Hot, and….. 4. Just kill me now!😂😂 Right now I’m experiencing allergies for the first time in my life! Can’t smell a thing! No point in wasting my fragrances..😢 I have 3 Montale fragrances (Sweet Vanilla, Vanilla Cake, and Rose Elixir) and 1 Mancera, (Roses Vanille.) I also have travel sprays of Vanilla Absolu, Intense Cafe, and Coco Vanille. They all smell the same. There is some synthetic note in the base of all the fragrances from both houses that I don’t like. It ruins the fragrance for me. I know these are ‘sister’ houses. Something in the DNA turns me off. The first burst is beautiful though….😢 SO nice to see you today! Have a great weekend!

@leahmiranda8359 11 ай бұрын

P.S. I’ve found that perfume oil versions of the Montale and Mancera don’t have that smell. Yay!

Hi Leah! 💖 As a former New Yorker, I approve this summer message! 😂 Ready for fall! Oh my gosh. That SW heat is unrelenting! Sheesh! And I know what you mean about the Montale/Mancera DNA. You are correct! It doesn't bother me but many don't like it.

I know the calendar dates of summer, but both my parents were teachers so I will always have the school year as my definition. Recently moved from The Far North to California and am definitely in lighter fragrance mode in these 100 degree days, but do wear my "warm and cozies" to bed still. On the topic of Mandarine Basilic, i wear the original in the daytime and then after it cools down in the evenings, add a spritz of the Forte. I really enjoy them both - but it's Terracotta for the win in my book!

End of summer is school time for a lot of people. People who go by the solstices and equinoxes will say end of September. Me? I go by temperature and growing seasons. New Englander here and our late summer flowers have been out for a week. We won't get fall till, I'm guessing, late October. We're still getting 80 degree days and high 60s nights.

Especially because you spend time testing things out too. I was so curious to see what would come out on top for you. Some I could guess and some were total surprises. I love hearing about what got worn the most from a large collection, because I find it telling about what is genuinely loved. At least for that period of time. Thanks for sharing! A great theme and I hope you consider doing it for every season as they come to an end. 💛😊

Sounds like you had a good fragrance Summer!😍 We had a family get together today close to Mont-Tremblant and temperatures were at around 68 degrees, cloudy and windy... Everyone was wearing a jacket. So Fall feels like it's already kind of here... 😭 (Gave away some decluttered fragrances to my nieces.) Got complimented by my cousin on Cruz del Sur II. 😁 Terracotta is soooo gooood... I liked Lust for Sun as a more floral fresh coconut and Alien Goddess Intense for a heady jasmin and coconut. I think I prefer Dolce Garden in the Spring... It packs quite a punch when I wear it in the sun and heat. Freshies: Améthyste l'Éclat, Blue Wisteria, Un Jardin sur le Toît, White Musk (and the new one from Body Shop). Others: Dama Bianca, Vele, Cruz del Sur II, Pas ce Soir, La Belle Fleur Terrible, La Dompteuse Encagée, Gardenia Cardamom.

I live in Canada so my Summer begins and ends when I want it to! I love wearing lighter scents in the heat but I will wear a lot of tropical scents in the dead of winter. I will deliberately conjure up a vacation state of mind. Arethusia is a perfect example of something that wears well all year round and can give you a warmer weather feel. One of my favourite warm weather scents is Alghabra’s “From the Heart”. It’s uplifting and although I’ll wear it all year round it gives me a lighter feel when the heat is wearing me down. Love your top ten lists.

LOLOLOLOLOL!!!! I live in Ponce, Puerto Rico, as you know, we puerto ricans do not care about the heat when we are spraying fragrances (well maybe if we are going to seat under the sun🥵🏄‍♀🚣‍♀🏊‍♀🐳🐋🐬🦭🐟🦀🦞🦐🦪🦑🥟 😂🍺🧋🥤🏖🏝😂🌞🌡🔥🌊💧all that😂🤣. Imagine I am at the end of an Arabic fragrance feast. SOTD is Junoon Rose by Al Haramain ( 87F feels like 99 outside). My most worn fragrances this past 3 months are Kind Intentions by Navitus ( collaboration with Paulina Schar), Delina La Rosee, Flamenco (of course), Florabotanica, and my Aguas Frescas from Adolfo Dominquez. Almost forgot Sunscape by Pearlescent!

Happy Saturday Veronica! My frame of reference for seasons vary because I’ve lived in so many different climates but I always default to June through Labor Day as that was what we followed growing up in PA. Have I ever told you your giggle tickles me? Not a bottle suffering from a long night? 😂😂😂 Great summer picks. I used my TF Soliel Blanc body oil all summer because it pairs so well with everything. I do tend to lean on my citrus scents more in summer but it’s been so hot this year I relied more on oils, lotions and potions because everything just seemed cloying to me. For instance I suddenly hated tiare flower?! I’m not sure if it was my allergies or just the heat.🤷🏽‍♀️ Great video as always and I enjoyed it per usual. Now, I’m ready for fall and some cool weather.

@VeronicaSays 11 ай бұрын

Hi Faith! Yes, June through Labor Day was about the same in New York as well. I'm glad my giggle tickles you. Sometimes, when I'm editing, I wonder what I found so funny. 🤷‍♀️ Couldn't tell you, but I rather be joyful than too serious, right? About tiare flower - you're not alone! Isn't is weird how we grow in and out of love with certain notes or accords from season to season and year to year? That's why the fragrance hobby keeps me on my toes! You never know. Stay cool in ATL!! 🫶🫶🫶
