I am so aggressively pulled in two opposing directions 😩 I LOVE having a collection of different scents, I love novelty and that perfect fragrance for that exact situation…or matching my fragrance to my mood or outfit etc BUT I also really want to have a signature scent and have people develop a scent memory related to me. I am a maximalist and minimalist. It’s hard lol

I want to declutter Delina exclusif, I am just over it!😢 it is too complex, and I think I have gotten to the point of my frag addiction where I want to smell “nichely” mass appealing not complex!😂 I reached this conclusion after too many hits and misses. At the end of the day nobody truly care what you are wearing, or how expensive it is. The most important thing is that you enjoy the scent, and it matches your personality and lifestyle! I crave a pretty, long lasting, feminine signature scent that people will remember me by. My top contenders for now: Greenwich Village, For your love, Fire at Will, PDM Oriana, and Baldafrique. Those will be my ideal collection of 5! Ugh I can’t wait to downsize and curate my collection to no more than 10 bottles all sitting nicely on a mirrored tray on my dresser. My dream 😅

We really do get whipped up into a frenzy LOL that’s a good way to put it I get so obsessed sometimes 🤦‍♀️

Here for the epic declutter. Perfume is not like makeup, you can normally sell at similar prices. I think curation is the word for me in 2023 too.

I love your top. I'm with you on curating a signature collection and not having a ton of fragrances for the sake of collecting.

You look stunning everytime! “Keep only those things that speak to the heart, and discard items that no longer spark joy.” ( Marie Kondo ) and with my perfume collection, I kept the ones I truly love! Great content Chris! 😘

I really like when you time stamp.

You are doing the right thing, decluttering what you don't like or wear 👏👏👏You are definitely making room for new loves.

I’ve been decluttering, too. Im actually revisiting some and giving them a few wears before officially decluttering. If I really feel like I will wear it and love it, I’m keeping it and putting it out so I’ll grab it and use it up. However, I won’t have it on the table for repurchase. Most of them are going to the declutter box though. I love blind buying. It’s exciting, but I’m sampling much more now since I’m liking higher $ stuff. Definitely not blind buying anything over $200. I’m also buying more smaller bottles when possible. I don’t need everything in a giant bottle. I appreciate 30ml and 50ml options. 😊

Great video! I love watching declutters, but I also like being reminded to put the brakes on once in a while. I started a 6 month no-buy at the beginning of December. I don’t have quite as many as you do, but it’s still a significant amount. I think we need to slow down sometimes and explore what we already have, otherwise we’re locked in a cycle of new, new, new and it becomes more about the shopping experience than it is about the fragrances.

Ooohhh, I love declutter videos! They inspire me to take a hard look at my own collection and really try to either enjoy and wear more often or let go of fragrances that are not working for me 😉

Whoosahhhhhh! I have a fraction of number of fragrances that you have but I completely agree for myself as well. Totally looking forward to your new content as well as the continuation of watching your past content. Thank you for all you do! 😊❤️🌱

Hello Chris, thanks for sharing your decluttered fragrances with us. I like that you spent time explaining why you are decluttering them and what you have and use that resembles those perfumes. Looking forward to your upcoming videos! Take Care! - Jenn

That was an epic declutter Chris! So very satisfying. Reminds me that I need to get rid of some from my collection. You made lots of room for more new ones ❤😍

I loved this video! I’ve kind of been in the stage of building my collection, but lately I’ve been getting excited about the idea of only keeping what I really love! Good job decluttering! 👏🏻👏🏻

Hello beautiful! I’m wearing L’Interdit Rouge today! For my office party 😉 Frapin 1270 is on my wishlist! 😬

The upcoming videos sound 🔥!!! I’m so excited

Ohhhhh Chris!! You’re looking so gorgeous and angelic 😍😍😍😍. Can’t wait to see what your Decluttering 🙌. I feel the same way about Vanilla Diorama, Decluttered Trussardi EDT and Intense Cafe. Our taste is becoming more exquisite ☺️

I love it. I always hang on to fragrances and them suddenly I get into a decluttering mood and have no issues with letting them go

Great video, I love declutter vids bc as soon as I see them I go to see if there’s a Mercari I can purchase from 😂. I’m in love with your home esthetic and your whole vibe, and your look is so classy and sophisticated 😍😍🙌🏾 immediately subscribed.

Can’t wait for that Black Friday haul!

Good declutter, Chris, very logical! Always enjoy your videos. You have been looking so beautiful this month, especially! You always do, but the last few videos more than ever, so dressy and put-together. Have a wonderful weekend! ~Cynthia

i wish before end this year to see your perfume collection , your organization 😍

Hi Chris 😍, love your look and the mantle , very festive 🎄💕, with such a large collection I can see how you would have to declutter just to keep up with the new fragrances being added ❣ Merry Christmas and all the best in 2023 💝🎉

I’m so here for the declutter 😮

What a great declutter, my friend 👏 Some of them sounded perfect by the notes. A curated collection of loves would be fantastic and moving away from blind buying full bottles. You do you. Enjoy your fragrances how you like. I’m so looking forward to all of your upcoming content and holiday cheer. ❤🎄

Great Video Chris🥰😍

I started to collect perfumes during the COVID-19 pandemic. I think it was my escape mechanism from all the chagrins that came along with that period, particularly in my home country which was a playfield for Murphy's law. I have recently tried Trussardi Limitless Shopping Via della Spiga and it captured my heart - bought it within hours of testing it, it is a beautiful powdery honey floral. This line is not spoken of enough and is quite affordable (relatively)

This sounds so relatable! My perfumes doesn't fit anymore, I don't wear a big chunk. I decided no more purchases for at least 6 months.

Good job girl that was a great declutter Hugs ❤

OMG - so many great perfumes! Will be checking out your Macari 😊

My perfume collection blew up from 2020-2022,I blame Covid, as a nurse it was so stressful and perfumes helped me , but I need to get a grip as well, you inspire me to try to curate my collection as well, I gave my La Bell away as well

😂 love the intro! I’m guilty 🤦🏻‍♀️ I did a 2022 empties video with about the same amount of fragrances because I’m also trying to curate my collection for 2023 to absolutely loves. Will these be on Mercari? If so what is your store name? I clinked the link the the db but it does take me to your store. Enjoyed your video 💕

Hey Chris! I'm all in! ❤️

Lol you are so right, those v canto bottles do look a bit gothy and the box could be its coffin for sure. It needs some love in a new home for sure 👍

I love this! I’ve recently been curating my collection; so like you, I no longer buy fragrances that are similar in notes. Also, weak fragrances are now “deuces”. Over hyped fragrances are a “No” and fragrances that require me layering to get the true scent is not worth the splurge. I’m very intentional with my fragrances. Every fragrance I own is used/ not forgotten. I enjoy my reduced collection. 💞

I like these videos. Yes, please let me know what to stay clear from.

Great job, Chris! Thanks for explaining the why behind the declutter. Otherwise it’s kinda like knowing someone at work got fired but no one knows why!😂

Hilarious Declutter review Chris!!! I need to do my vid , it’s an overwhelming amount lol. They’re all just sitting in a bin so maybe I’ll do it today. Taking lots to Africa ❤️

Looking forward to your upcoming videos!! Sounds great. I love incense.

OMG that dotted stoletto bottle❤ I am testing Good Girl now, and I might keep it. I love the caramel in it. It is a powerhouse, already lasts more than 12hours 🎉

Hi my beautiful perfume hoarder!

Hi Chris! Huge declutter! Can’t wait to meet your new babies!🤗

Love your blouse!

Decluttering 🎉. Good 👍🏼

You look stunning!

Hey Chris. I like curate so much better than collect. I just returned a bottle because it smells like three other fragrances I already own. I want variety and only want to keep loves.

oh my... if only we live in the same area, I will be very much willing to buy those some of the frags that you have decluttered. (CH good girl and JPG La belle)

You Look So Nice In this video!

Random thought…but if you are constantly wearing a different scent each time you meet people, they might start to think you are living off free samples from the perfume counter 🤣🤣🤣 they have no clue we have hundreds of bottles sitting on our shelves 😂 This hobby is kind of ridiculous if you think about it. We really don’t need full bottles of everything! Samples and decants will do.

This was fun! Frapin 1270 makes me so sad with it's lasting power🥺 Vanilla Diorama was a surprise😳😳

Love the video!! I dont have Accident/Almond, but I do have the A La Vanille & love it. I would prob love the almond one, & have contemplated buying it. Hmmm, now you have me second guessing!!

Chris, thanks for this video. I was seriously hoping for this opportunity from you. So when and where will you be listing your decluttered fragrances?

I’m sitting here thinking, “Yes, I need to be more mindful of my perfume purchasing too. That’s a great idea. In fact, I am going to stop buying for a few months.”…and then you held up Vanilla Diorama. My immediate reaction was to begin stalking your Mercari page so I could snatch it up as soon as it was posted!! Chris, if I try to buy that perfume from you please cancel my purchase 😂

I really want to buy several of these like right now.

I collect too. I just purchased Afnan Dessert Rose and Floral Boutique. They smell like something else and I like them. I would love you to review them. I will be watching.

I have to comment that you look absolutely lovely and festive. I'm with you on not needing another amber fragrance, I have Grand Soir, Stendhal Ambre Sublime, 1942 Ambra Nobile, Ortigia Ambra Nera, the list goes on... It's just too much, you inspire me to be more selective. But I'll never have enough of the Shalimar flankers 😁

Beautiful top! I would love to know where is it from! Also lovely video!

Lol I'm cheering as you declutter la belle le parfum 🤣 way way too sweet for me. I just can't. It made me feel sick when I tried it in a dept store. I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but I have had to scrub it off. 🤷‍♀️ I don't get that kind of strong reaction very often.

Thank you for your videos sweetheart. Lots of love and respect and greetings from me in Amsterdam the Netherlands. ( Some of those bottles are to cute to do away with..... 😩)

Thanks Chris love to hear your rationale and apply it to my own non-collector collection! 😊❤ There are fragrances. I haven’t worn in over a year or two that I really do not need to be keeping. Where do you typically sell yours? Also, once again, very entertained by your wonderful descriptions! That barbecue chips, it had me laughing!😂😂😂

I’m going through my collection too. I’m using some up and passing some on to the Airmen in my office. I’d love to buy La Belle, VGG or Intense Cafe if they’re still up for sale. BTW, Dylan Turquoise is waiting until spring to be worn. Love from the spooky Pine Barrens in NJ

I have been slowly curating my collection as well lately, I think I have decluttered about 15 in the past couple months, feels good!! ❤Man that sucks about the accident ala vanille almond cake one, I have been wanting to smell that one!! Lol!!!

First, let me just say how beautiful you are. Love that top, hair and makeup. Also, I absolutely love that you are curating your collection. I believe the same thing, where I need to absolutely love everything that I have, and where all of them. Even if it's just a couple times in the year. But if it has a special meeting, or for a specific event, something like that I'm all about it. But if you just never reach for it, or if it's just a like, no thanks. I don't have enough room. And it can go to a more loving home. Oh! I ended up getting a bottle of the Kenzo World Power you suggested, and I love it. Still need to see how it does in the summer, but so far I'm liking it a lot. I got it for a really great deal off of Mercari. I think I found it for 19 bucks.

I’m always in favour of declutters whether it’s fragrances, clothes etc🤩🤩. Sometimes I can’t think straight because of clutter🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️. I’m also decluttering 8 fragrances now and one left yesterday🙌🙌. My nose has become so picky, I think I’m turning into a fragrance snob😂😂. Lovely video as always🤩🤩. Stay gorgeous🥰🥰.

I love the idea of curating!

I’m not the hugest fan of Vanilla Diorama but I would say hold onto that one. It is perfumey but can be good on a cold snowy day. But I do see where it can be overwhelming so maybe don’t listen to me🤣

Where do you sell your fragrances? I’m interested in a couple of them :)

DA SHOE!!!

Good decisions. I feel like I'm ahead of the game by never having bought most of these. I just can't make any Jean Paul Gautier fragrances work for me -- to cloyingly sweet. Of the ones you decluttered, I do own Seductive Noir, since I prefer sage to lavender in this accord (i.e. love Mon Guerlain but it has lavender). I'm really trying to buy decants instead of bottles when I'm interested in something.

16:42 your description of Vanilla Milk lol 😂. I too highly disliked that one. I desperately need to declutter. And get my life together.

Guess Seductive Noir never has worked on me - and longevity is only about 1 hour.

Intense café, I really didn't enjoy when I first got it. I have been wearing it much more lately and I am more into it. I prefer it to roses vanille, it's more interesting. I also dislike CH good girl 🤷‍♀️

Hi Chris! Any suggestions on what to buy (as gift) for a 16-year-old young girl? Thank you in advance! ❤️🤗

Place vendome (the perfume store that is pure heaven at least), is in Belgium, not in Paris 😊 I can’t help but really want to take credit for having that gem of a store (David and Steven are the greatest!) in our country.

What a decluttering :p Thank you for sharing with us. Just one world about the brand "100 Bon" : It's a french pun, we say "Cent Bon" (100 = cent in french), because of "sent bon" (with the verb "sentir") that means "smell good". Litteraly, the name of the brand means "Smell Good", the pronunciation in french is totally identical (100 = cent / sent). :)

I really curate my fragrance collection as well since having too many fragrances gets me nervous 😅

I purchased Jardins de Misfah a month ago and It has a great performance … on me 🤷🏻‍♀️

I Appreciate your honesty. Do you have a recommendation for a PDM Oriana dupe? I don’t think Delina is for me but I’m curious about the bright aspect of Oriana. Unfortunately I don’t live to a retailer to see for myself.

I feel a declutter area comming. My collection got to 35 fragrances in lockdown and Im already over it! I don't like clutter en am selling 6 perfumes right now that I blind bought

Wanna try Guess Seductive Noir.

when you declutter them, do you sell them on somewhere, or give them away to people around you?

I swear, Vanilla Milk was the biggest disappointment of the year 😭💔 so much potential with those notes ..

At least your Magnificat actually had a smell! I purchased from FragranceBuy in the summer and when I sprayed it, it smelled like nothing! I waited and a weird dusty book smell came through for ten minutes and then it was gone. No, no, no. I got a successful refund. I think it was fake🤷🏾‍♀️

I would love to see how you store and display your collection! Great de-clutter video! I bet that really feels great curating your collection now. That’s what I do and it really saves on space! 🙂

Ohh frapin sounds lovely ,how sad it doesn’t last long ,ohh wow La belle 🤦‍♀️but I get it ! It can get a bit much and I like it ,don’t entirely love it 🤷‍♀️

I would love to declutter have so many almost brand new ..how do you go about selling your perfume

Do you currently have anything listed on Mecari because the link isn't bringing up anything.

Would you ever sell any of your doubles 😅😮

This is good timing because of the Sephora sale on perfume. I have a TON of small roller balls that are BARELY touched and they’re several years old - if I can’t get through roller balls I can’t get through a big bottle. I need to try samples first, not just on a piece of paper, and I don’t think Ulta gives little vials. I’m really sensitive to smells as I’ve gotten older and some just trigger headaches. I’m sick of reading descriptions like it adjusts to smell like a better version of you and it has a strong biting note. I grew up wearing Coty Wild Musk, and Calvin Klein Obsession in high school (so many compliments) but I’m still trying to find a signature scent - I like different things and usually find the popular ones like Black Opal too strong, and Mugler Angel and Alien give me headaches. Can’t stand too powdery or spicy, but I like Philosophy Fresh Cream warm cashmere, but I think my husband smells matches, and regular fresh cream smells like sour milk. It’s hard because it’s tough to find a perfect blend, not too sickening sweet, but I like vanilla (not vanilla fields from the 80’s). Scents can bring back so many memories. I just want something I like that doesn’t put people off from the intense smell and that my husband likes (fragrance in general makes his nose plug and he starts to sneeze). The worst thing is getting on an elevator with a musty strong scent). I think the epitome of popular iconic perfume that repulses me is Chanel No. 5. I would rather wear a shea butter lotion and keep it simple. I used to love Britney Spears fantasy and fantasy intense back in the day but they might smell cheap now, not that price matters, but expensive doesn’t mean I’ll love it - most Tom Ford are too strong. Once I smelled My Burberry and loved it, then smelled it in a gift pack and it smelled terrible. And it’s a strong floral. I wish I knew what exact notes repulse me if it’s too much (Jasmine maybe?). Funny I just bought a $10 Skylar roller ball at TJ Maxx in Salt Air and actually like how subtle it is. So did my daughter and we have different tastes.

I've checked your link to Macari sooo many times, now - it keeps saying nothing is listed. Am i missing something?

How disappointing that Jousset almond cake doesn’t smell like that. The regular accident a la Vanille is heaven 😞

Do you see similarities between Babycat and Ivory Route?

I only want to buy special scents. But I will still blind buy to do it 😄

Ugh vanilla milk. Fortunately I ordered the travel size but it is terrible.

The fomo is real!

plzz do a list of sexy but not sweet perfumes im struggling 😭😭❤❤❤❤❤

I'm absolutely shocked how someone don't like La belle le parfum 😱

Vanilla diorama 🤩yum if you haven’t sold it yet let me know ?

Hi - I am trying to access you Mercari listings and am having issues. Can you give me the profile name so I can try to look your listings up that way. The link has me sign in and then I only see what I have listed. Thank you! 😃
