Going Broke For Fragrances? Brutally Honest Advice

Are you going broke to buy fragrances? Is your spending on perfumes ruining your future finances? Many of us get a bit obsessed and over consume with this hobby so I share my thoughts and ideas on how to better manage fragrance buying. Should you even be purchasing perfumes at all? I list a few scenarios whereby purchasing perfumes will be detrimental to your financial health - with bad financial management and debt you can be sure stress and poor mental health will follow. I also outline some basics of financial management for those that may need it. I really hope this doesn't come across as condescending or patronising, I know that much of my audience are mature, responsible and knowledgeable and this is not really aimed at those people but rather the few that find themselves over spending and buying more fragrances than they truly are comfortable with. I come from a place where I have made most of the mistakes and not been great at managing my own spending so I promise there is no judgement here and I just hope that this video is helpful to some.

About me - I'm Claire and I live in the UK. My taste in perfumes is usually quite sweet but not too sweet, I love white florals but not tuberose so much. I like gourmands as long as they smell like perfumes still, I require my perfumes to change a little bit as I wear them ie not linear. I don't enjoy oud, leather, cumin, saffron or strong patchouli however there can be occasions where I do like perfumes with these notes if they are not too dominant. I enjoy most florals as long as they are backed up with something sweet or perhaps resins / insense. I tend to not enjoy anything very soapy. I also don't really enjoy very green fragrances. I am averse to overdoses of ambroxan and iso E super (timbersilk or similar) just because I find it annoying! I have no problem with synthetics in perfumery but I do enjoy perfumes that have some notes that at least smell like they could be from nature. My favourite type of perfumery is indie and I love Francesca Bianchi, Teone Reinthal, 4160 Tuesdays and Papillon Artisan Perfumes.

Adverts - I know they are annoying but they earn me a few pennies from the Adsense which I put back into buying perfumes to talk about on this channel.
