One of the best parts of wearing fragrance is the compliments—let’s be real. But in this video, I’m talking about the flip side: the perfumes I love that got me some of the worst reactions, mainly from my daughter and family. These are the scents where I was literally told I don’t smell good… and yes, it’ll humble you fast. I walk through the exact comments I got, what I think they were reacting to (powder, leather, honey, oud, “artificial” candy notes), and how I handled it—because sometimes you love a scent and the people around you are straight up repulsed. I share the one fragrance I actually decluttered because my sisters had me feeling self-conscious (and I regret it), plus the Guerlain trio that had my house in chaos: Cuir Beluga, Tobacco Honey, and Cherry Oud. Then we get into the “what is there not to like?” moment with Sweet Tooth, why my daughter refuses anything cherry (including Cherry Bouquet), and the Bianco Latte story that took me from “candied bacon” to compliments galore at work. The takeaway: everyone’s nose is different, and I stopped decluttering just because someone else doesn’t like it—baby, I’m going to wear what I love (and maybe just not around you).
