Yep, it's time twice and for all to address the BS in the fragrance community. As a content creator and influencer it is my responsibility to be direct and honest about any and all reviews on my channel (1000% Honesty Over Here 🙋🏾‍♀️) and I'll continue to SPILL THE TEA in a manner that I SEE fit be it Celebrity, Designer, or Niche!

That’s why I don’t believe in paying for peoples expensive”NAME BRANDS” which is just the same as lower priced perfumes with more oils in them I’ve learned you can get great long lasting perfumes at all prices. And I got them all!! Thank you for all your hard work you I really appreciate you.❤

This is why I started buying Middle Eastern perfume. Lattafa has bangers for fraction of price. Long lasting… Better than Expensive name brand.

What im starting to notice in my perfume journey is that most Designer scents have similar mid notes-it's the top notes that they use to draw you in. this year I'm being much more selective in what I purchase and make a dent in my collection.

The Chloe perfume silver is real. You have to polish it. Its just that silver needs polishing. I prefer real silver to plastic that looks like silver. At first I was mad too but then I found out why it turns that color and was like well I guess I am ok with it then.

Love when you speak your mind and put us on speaking facts, I'm not really too impressed with much fragrances that have been coming out lately. I'm getting more into sampling niche and indie fragrance houses they seem to be more interesting. I will still sample designers but alota indie houses are swinging in hot with creative energy. And also discovering hidden gems that have been around for years.

It does tarnish but you can fix it (if you want to) if not you can leave it like that. In 2014 when I was on another acc I had posted in the Chloe comments how to clean it and it is very easy. The thing is that this metal is genuine sterling silver (read the little card that comes with it) like any other jewelry it gets tarnished with time.Just use tooth paste and a toothbrush or a piece of cloth and clean it with that or you can always buy any sterling silver cleaner.
