Great interview Katie
@Miriam89 Opium is a fab Xmas smelleroonie! Go ahead and scare the kids – you only need the men anyway.
Hi Katie! I’m such a fan of your reviews. I’ve recently fallen in love with Agent Provocateur and Agent Provocateur Maitresse. I was wondering if there were any similar fragrances along those lines you’d recommend (preferably a bit less expensive lol)? I’ve heard some reviewers compare Maitresse to Chanel No 5 but honestly, I can’t stand No 5, it smells old ladyish to me.
I love Molecule 01… Indeed, the same thing happened to me at work. So many people were mystified by this sublime scent. I’ve since take to buying the ISO-E Super and mixing it myself for far cheaper.
@sparkybish Someone’s got to!
@A7laQ6ri Manoumalia by LesNez
Gosh, I felt (weirdly) like a proud parent seeing you on tv Lol You done good girl! 🙂 Oh, and that more vanilla Shalimar sounds very interesting..
Molecule 01 is comprised entirely of aroma chemical Iso E Super, which provides the cedar/sandalwood smell in SO many masculines, from Terre d’Hermes to Amouage Jubilation XXV & beyond. It will seem comfortingly familiar to you when you smell Molecule 01. Because it’s just one ingredient, and not a composition, it feels a bit skeletal to me (because I love opulent, lavish “meal in a bottle” perfumes). But it is undeniably appealing, & the thinness can also read as freshness. & it lasts FOREVER.
Loving the shoes you’ve got on!
@friscobiatch78 Thanks, hon. I’ve got another “date” with Raoul this week! Will post the segment by the weekend.
@RedDragon45 I know women who absolutely love wearing Molecule 01 (and they’re the ones who like woodsy/sandalwood scents like Diptyque Tam Dao). It does skew towards the masculine side, but not as “manly” as something like Terre d’Hermes, for instance.
@vmendonc Rubbing doesn’t do anything other than rub off the fragrance and minimize its power. In these short segments, there’s only a few seconds for the anchor to register the scent and make an observation, and I don’t have the luxury of time to let the alcohol burn off and my skin warm up the fragrance. A quick wipe against my clothes cuts the alcohol smell and warms up the scent at the same time. But in real life, you’re right: you don’t want to waste perfume by rubbing half of it off!
great segment katie
I love that you used the words horny and slutty on tv news.
@DecemberMarie I think you just might dig the newest Agent Provocateur, L’Agent. It’s lush and full and a little sweet, with a leather twist.
@1224darl I feel that wearing fragrance not only is an expression of your individuality and mood, but is also a way to enhance what’s going on in the world around you.
I wish tv smellavision was available lol!
Every one should have a Raoul in their office.
@ProspectNY11211 Right?
@Sevipants19 You know something? I “forgot” to wear my wedding ring for these segments!
Great points, especially about not wanting to clash with a holiday (or any) meal. When I think of holiday meals I think of fragrances with some sweetness such as maple, cranberry and plum (wondering if there a designer or niche fragrance with maple, plum and cranberry notes, hmmm).
Katie! I’ve just bought Opium (EDP), Yves Saint Laurent… FUCK YEAH!!! That will be my Christmas scent. Hopefully men will drag along and scared mothers will not try to hide their kids from me.
Oh, by the way, I stalked you a little bit, and I must say, you have had a very cool and wild youth! But how you manage to look 25 years younger than you are, well, that is a complete mystery to me.
@pigasus27 Thanks indeedy!
I love your videos, but whyyyy, whyyy rub the fragrances!!! As a fragrance connaisseur you should know that u can’t do that!
@RedDragon45 Apparently stylist Rachel Zoe adores wearing it.
@cockneyrouge Ha…thanks! TV allows me to get the pins out.
Midnight in Paris reminds me of my Grandfather in his study!!
@Ladyofdeath777 No kidding!
@mai567 Yep, I’m thinking a return for Valentine’s Day, too.
Has anyone else commented on Raoul’s Clark Kent vibe? I’m sure he gets that all the time. I’m just waiting for him to drop that cute “knucklehead” persona, tear off his clothes and…………..I’m going to shut up now.
@Leven92 You can never go wrong if you’re in charge of your own gifts!
Raoul is an adorable slice of man-nerd. I wasn’t really picking on him – more like fourth grader-style bullying flirting.
@coffeeislove12345 Yes, “Clark Kent” has been mentioned, and you’re painting quite a picture…;-)
@2Krazy2Klassy That was the clincher, right?
@CanwllCorfe615 MiP smells to me like a more accessible, more billowy Bulgari Black. My personal pref is for Bulgari Black, but I think MiP’s sweeter approach may work for those who aren’t down with BB’s rubber. I’ve not parsed the diff between the EDT & EDP.
That picture of Katie at 6:23 is just so cute! Just adorable. 🙂
Well I guess you ended up liking Midnight in Paris! 😀 After a couple more successive samplings, I’ve decided I do enjoy it. I’m not sure it’s FBW yet. Did you get to try the EDP and EDT? I don’t get too much of a difference between the two. The EDP may be smoother, but that’s about it.
@ColoursandScents Good idea! Annick Goutal Sables, The Different Company Sublime Balkiss and Serge Lutens Bois et Fruits come to mind…
@mialovesmusic Oh! I hope you enjoy reading my book!
Did you just say the words “horny” and “slutty” on Fox News? Yeah? Awesome.
@242razor That’s wonderful to hear!
“So you’re saying this would be good for what event?” You’re talking for a minute and a half about office-party fragrances, airhead.
@ImHollyGolightly Yep it’s a coming-of-age memoir called “Shooting From the Lip”.
Hey knucklehead! Katie’s married!
Haha
@KatiePuckrikSmells , thank you so much katie , god bless you for everything you’re doing coz you’re changing people’s lives…the new me is more confident than before
Nice fragrance picks, Katie. I really like Molecule 01, but it costs $210 out here in Oz, so it’s a bit out of my price range! I wonder what I should wear to the family Christmas party this year? Hmmm…must do some thinking 🙂
“Perhaps you’re a little horny.”
L.M.A.O
Can women wear Escentric Molecules Molecule 01 or is it too “manly” smelling ?
@roliboom I appreciate your pride!
this interview was so much funn to watch, great job 🙂
Very cool interview – I will definitely have to try out Molecule 01! Is there anything that smells similar to it?
