My current collection, category breakdowns, and honest reviews❤️✨
Hey everyone! 💕
I’ve recently discovered this new obsession and wanted to come on here to show my collection, explain the categories I put them in, give my honest thoughts on each one, and see what you all think! I find this all so fun and love reading everyone’s posts on here about their collections.
Here is my breakdown by row!
Top Left: The Bella Vita Collection (Birthday Gift)
Glam Woman: Not really a fan of this one, so I just have it in my uni/work category until it runs out. Maybe I’ll start to like it more as time goes on, but I do prefer it on the dry down.
Rose Woman: This is nice! Very easy to wear and smells pretty. Daytime category.
Date Woman: Also in my daytime category, I like this one too!
Senorita Woman: Not yet worn, but it will go in either uni/work or daytime depending on how much I like the vibe.
Middle Row: The Scent Reserve Dupes (Got an 8 for £39 deal!)
105 (Libre): Love this smell, but it doesn’t last very long on me. Uni/work category.
238 (Daisy): This is lovely! Feels fresh and clean, perfect for uni and work.
571 (J’adore): I don’t like this one as much, it feels a bit too similar to Daisy to me. Uni/work category.
63 (Goddess): Love this! Very nice for daytime when it’s not too hot outside.
284 (Black Opium): Since I have the original, this sits in daytime. To me, it doesn't smell much like the OG; it has an initial almost chlorine-like smell on first spray, but the dry down is better.
147 (Love Don't Be Shy): Got this because who wouldn't want to smell like Rihanna? I love it, but it doesn’t last long. It’s currently in evenings, but I might move it to daytime because I have Oakcha Sweet Addict on the way to take its place for evenings!
149 (Baccarat Rouge): Love this one too, but again, doesn’t last the longest. Evening/occasions category.
344 (Good Girl): Very nice! This is actually the longest-lasting one of my Scent Reserve dupes. Evening/occasions category.
Top Middle & Right
Ted Baker Elodie: This is nice, though it’s quite a strong floral scent which isn’t usually my absolute favorite. Daytime category.
Born Lovely by SJP: I like this one a lot for daytime. Super wearable!
My Layering Bases: Lush Vanillary Solid, plus Choco Musk, Pistachio, and Marshmallow perfume oils.
Bottom Row (All Evenings & Occasions)
Lady Million (Mini): This is nice, but it’s a splash mini without a spray so it doesn’t project quite as well.
Black Opium (Original): I love this, but unfortunately, it doesn’t last very long on me 🥺 I wish it did because it’s beautiful.
Xtina by Christina Aguilera: LOVE THIS. Definitely a hidden gem that I hardly ever see people talk about. It’s fruity and sweet but still lovely for evening, lasts long, is very affordable, and always gets compliments!
Zadig & Voltaire This is Really Her!: Love this one too, lasts incredibly well.
Ghost Orb of Night: One of my absolute faves. It’s more affordable and always gets me compliments.
Angel Fantasm by Mugler: I didn’t like this at first, but it has completely grown on me! It's so different from anything else I have, always gets compliments, and is SO long-lasting. Definitely the longest-lasting one I own (I think it’s a Mugler thing, my Alien bottle just ran out and that was a beast too!).
On the Side (New Purchases Not Yet Tried)
Al Rehab Choco Musk Spray (Will probably go to daytime)
Lattafa Khamrah (Will definitely be an evening/occasion scent)
My Absolute Favorite Combo Experiments So Far:
Lush Vanillary layered with Ghost Orb of Night (Stunning!)
Choco Musk Oil layered with 344 (Good Girl dupe)
Pistachio Oil layered with 238 (Daisy) and also with 63 (Goddess)
Marshmallow Oil layered with 147 (LDBS)
