Everytime you mention Dune I think of my mother in her green matching top and bottom end of the nineties with her matching off white shoes and bag! 😆 Scents are the best way to bring back memories! 🥰 It’s hard for me to say if it’s a masterpiece or not because I change my mind so often about a perfume. One day I love it and one day I can hate it.. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But I would say that By the fire place could qualify. I always hated smelling smoke and I love this one so I don’t know how they did it! Have a great weekend beautiful! 🌞

Ah! Love the memory of your mom wearing Dune with the outfit you described. I can "picture" it! 💖💖💖 I know what you mean and how feelings about fragrance can change from one day to another. By the Fireplace is a strong contender, for sure! 👍 Have a good one.

Veronica, I love this. I don’t know what constitutes a masterpiece either but even with my allergies I still follow my nose and can smell one. I love so many of these and, yes, they are masterpieces. I don’t know what a rich lady or an old lady smells like either. It’s all relative and should be based on the joy one takes from their fragrances. First, your description of Saffron Lazuli is everything I was unable to articulate. It’s a stunner! I have to give credit to Dr. Rose because she sent me decants of the whole line and those fragrances are amazing. I now have six of them. Sandal Ruby included. Dior Addict is backup bottle worthy and I really need to pull the trigger and get Terracotta. I was just watching one of Richard’s videos last night. He’s such an amazing human being and I totally trust his recommendations. I’ll definitely be looking into some more of these. Thanks sunshine and have a great weekend.

What a terrific video Veronica! I haven't smelled most of those so can't comment to them but my selection would be Olympic Orchids SonnetXVII. I have loved this for years and always thought it was genius, not like anything I have smelled before or since - it's definitely not for everyone though. It has orchid but also a very prominent stables/barnyard/earthy scent that is nostalgic for me and very intoxicating. It's definitely odd and animalic but is also quite pretty.

Wow, how interesting. I have L'Autre Oud in the original bottle but was disappointed with it not living up to the praise for me. I guess I'll have to see if I can learn to understand it better?! Some wonderful frags on your list, Veronica 👍 2002 Dior Addict is also a stunner. I personally find it hard to label frags as 'masterpieces' bc almost nothing is new or unique anymore, so very few really stand out to that degree. But even if not totally unique, some frags do deserve such recognition, and there's two that I class as masterpieces. They've lasted through the decades and are still relevant and are still so incredibly amazing, and they are the OG Dior Poison - one of the best tuberose fragrances (or just best fragrances) ever created imo, and Joop! Femme. What an outstanding fragrance - there's nothing else like it. I have a vintage bottle of Joop! and it's unreal - I adore it! Also agree on Fracas (TorD is close but not the same). As for artistic, 'non mainstream' fragrances, from my collection is Bis by Rodin Olio Russo. I love it (successful blind buy) but it's very much an acquired taste. Great quality and unique, and it smells amazing to me, so I guess I'd sweep that into the masterpiece category as well. 😍👍 PS just reading some of the comments below mine and I have to agree that OG Opium would also fit into the masterpiece category for it's bravado when it was created, such a wow fragrance of its time, and is still not only relevant, but in production today, albeit reformulated. Shame the original formula has been castrated but c'est la vie. Sign of the times.

Hi Veronica! Your selection is bomb! I have a growing list of fragrances but I have top 10 that I think are masterpieces: pure gold, gold flowers, LDBS, Rose D'Arabie/Rose Omeyyade (they smell somewhat the same 😄), coco vanille, star musk, bal d'afrique and Golden Gai. Yes, LDBS have many dupes but when I first smelled it 5 years ago I was shook 😄.

Hello Veronica, another great video...thank you. Dune is timeless, and just like Dior Poison the OG very intimidating and require courage to rock them.. To me it is oceanic, hot sand, floral, sensual...if the line where the sky meets sand and ocean has a scent it would be Dune. Although Dune has no lavender I still get the vibes of Mon Guerlain Intense.

Such a hard topic and as you stated, it's hard to decipher from classifying as a "masterpiece" to I really love it. Also, does one consider just scent and originality or include performance, sillage, projection, longevity etc. Must it check all the boxes?!?!? I can honestly find masterpieces in each house. From the CH Confidential line, Platinum Leather is masterful indeed. It is how leather should be done and it is engulfed in the most wonderful white flowers. It is heaven and dare I say my favorite of the line *gasp*. Most I will mention will forever be in my collection because they are simply the best IMO in their genre and superb compositions: Dior Hypnotic Poison Kayali Utopia MFK BR540 (It was an original scent profile and although duped to exhaustion, it remains my one and only) Amouage Love Tuberose, Material Xeroff **** plenty to choose Italica, La Capitale Roja Creation E

Hi Evangelina, everyone that owns the fragrance likes it a lot! I have heard that is a brighter and crisper version of Casablanca by Swiss Arabian with an applie pie vibe. There are lots of reviews on it. I think I tried a sample many months ago but honestly don't recall. Isn't that pitiful? 🥴 Too much sampling. 🤣

Hi Veronica. On your recommendation I picked up Haramain Amber Oud at a great price Memorial Day sale. I wore it to my son's wedding last week. Very elegant. It gave me a Euphoria vibe, but more subtle. I would love to try Oak in Oak. Scents of Wood doesn't list it in its very pricy sample sets. I got a small bottle of Ebony in Oak and am truly loving that as an everyday woody fragrance. Also loving a sample of Xerjoff Lira. I'm planning on ordering a Kolotinis sample box with Coffee Addict. Very reasonable price and you can customize the box. My masterpiece is the original Chloe by Karl Lagerfeld. A classic. Thanks for some great ideas.

Hi Denise! Thank you for sharing your masterpiece with us! So happy you love your Amber Oud! Which one did you pick up? Tobacco? Rouge? Gold? Scents in Wood is having a Father's Day sale - 25% off with the code LOVEDAD. I am considering picking up the ebony one for hubby and maybe Praline in Maple for myself. The Kalotinis sampler is a great way to try his fragrances. If you can, try Santal Wood and Tobacco Maniac also (but give them a good chance to dry down and behave - they are very strong on the opening).

Shalimar and Habit Rouge my mom always wore and I feel like they qualify as masterpieces. A masterpiece isn't always something I can wear personally, for instance, Fracas, #5, Samsara, Opium, BR540, Alien, Poison...but I respect all of these creations being that all of them were groundbreaking in some way! Unique scent profiles, no cheap synthetics, beautiful projections. If I had to determine masterpieces just within my own collection, I think they would be Escentric Molecule 01, Vermeire Bombay Bling, TF Black Orchid, TF Shanghai Lily, Aesop Marrakech Intense, Diptyque Volutes Edp, LeLabo Rose 31, Le Labo Santal 33.
