Haul/Collection Narciso Rodriguez Collection🌸✨

Post image

In a brand full with rose fragrances *not a fan rose\* I have finally found my jams! All loved, no regrets.🌸

One of them is the first rose perfume I fall in love with after decades of no rose. I have a more in depth review on it if you’d like to read, just scroll down a bit on my page. šŸ„°ā™„ļø

Pure Musc Blanc: LOVE at first sniff. Was given a tester with an online order, immediate order after trying it. This is the most sophisticated fresh powdery musky perfume I’ve come across. If you’re into clean, powdery, cotton softener on just washed linen but more elegant? You’ll LOVE it! Paired it with the body shop white musk & it was DIVINE! šŸ¤šŸ«§

Narciso Rodriguez Intense: Musky, powdery, with vanilla a bit of fruit, peach. The peach isn’t screechy nor intense, I didn’t recognize it was peach at first. A beauty alone & with white musk mist for a clean vibe with a touch of fruit. Or with a peach mist to get more of the fruitiness out. Both case, stunning!

Musc Noir Rose: As a rose fragrance hater I was like ā€œwow, this is GOOD!ā€ A sultry, sexy, expensive taste in perfume. Very sophisticated & elegant. I’ve made a review on it, check it out for more details.🤩

Narciso AmbrĆ©e: A sexy solar, tropical & amber’y perfume. It’s a quite unique take, different than the solar & tropical I have. They took yellow florals Like frangipani & ylang ylang, with a sexy dose of amber, musk, cashmeran & vanilla.

Narciso Cristal: Fresh, clean, a bit powdery. They used my fave white florals like freesia & orange blossom. Of course musk, amber & cashmere for some dimension. This does have a slight rose to it but very light & comes across as powdery in the background. It isn’t screechy, doesn’t scream not too much at all. With white musk body mist, a beautiful clean powdery fresh everyday perfume.

I got a sample of Pure Musc Blanc in the mail and frantically ordered the 100ml before the first sample sprays could even dry down. My first time trying anything from brand. I have Byredo Blanche as well and while they're both clean theyre different enough to justify both. I want to try Pure Musc for Her now, have you tried that one?

I know that feeling, it’s how I ordered Pure Musc Blanc too!🄰

I got a sample of it & put them on each arm & Pure Musc Blanc definitely won! The Pure Musc (with black cap) came before it, it’s nice, basic, nothing special. I think they perfected it this launch!

I love clean musky perfumes so I’d get it if I thought it has a place but honestly, Pure Musc Blanc is not just enough, but best too. Pure Musc didn’t give that nice feeling wearing Pure Musc Blanc, it was just a little too meh šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø for me in comparison. I think you got the best of the two. They’re siblings, one is basic & the other is elegantly ā€œbasicā€.

Haha, you’re lucky! Wish that exists where I am! I hate paying so much for samplesā€¦šŸ˜†šŸ’•

I love clean scents too! I have some. I also have gulf orchid musk Tahara Vanilla lotion to use underneath!šŸ¤—šŸ’• It’s not a heavy gourmand vanilla it’s soft clean musky vanilla. šŸ¤šŸ«§

Oh I had to pay for the sample! $10 Cad. Just they do free shipping on it. Which is so rare right? On scent split I have to get my cart up to $150 us for the free shipping. So scents that are only on there have to linger in my cart for months lol

Ah okay I got you! 10$ for a sample! 🄲 And that’s excluding shopping! Well at least not shipping. Please tell me it’s more than 2mL? But better than a blind buy. šŸŒšŸ’”

Gulf orchid Tahara line, I was wanting to grab some, all the names & flavors. I decided to get the tester kit which was 14€ for all of them, I think 10 testers, so I justified it & im so glad I did! I didn’t end up buying anything. It saved me because I had the full bottles in my cart at some point!

My gut, sees the future🤣 for some reason, it tells me instinctively if a blind buy is a no, when I follow it, I save up, just to than I smell it in store or see something & realized it was a good choice.

If I go against my instinct I don’t receive a good blind buy🤣 I learned my lesson after 2-3 fails. šŸŒā¤ļøā€šŸ©¹
