She began by trying on Kim Kardashian’s True Reflection perfume (pictured) 

‘I think these four queens were major perfume queens, so let’s start with Kim.’

Dupee began by opening up a bottle of Kardashian’s ‘True Reflection’ perfume, which had notes of ‘Italian bergamot, luscious plum and peach.’

‘Apparently, Kim still uses this perfume to this day,’ Dupee claimed, showing off the black prism-shaped bottle and spraying it on her wrists. ‘I’m excited to try this out.’

‘It smells like licorice candy,’ she said after taking a sniff. ‘That is the best I can describe it, like licorice candy.’

Next up was Paris Hilton’s, which was named after herself and also had an ‘iconic’ photo of the star on the box, according to Dupee.

‘She has like, 40 perfumes, and I got the one with the most reviews,’ she explained, noting that she did prefer Kardashian’s bottle over Hilton’s.

Hilton’s perfume is described as ‘cool and radiant’ on her website, with the top presenting a ‘halo with delicious notes of frozen apple and juicy peach nectar wrapped with sparkling muguet and a splash of wet ozone.’

In addition, it also has floral note and at its base ‘creamy sandalwood is infused with oakmoss and ylang-ylang blossoms.’


Next, Dupee moved on to Paris Hilton’s perfume, describing it was ‘powdery’ and ‘floral’

Dupee has more than 1.2 million followers on her TikTok page, where she posted the video reviewing the perfumes 

‘Powdery, floral, very romantic,’ the content creator noted after spraying the scent on her body. ‘I feel like I would wear this on a date night.’ 

She described the fragrance as a ‘teenager perfume’ that was ‘soft’ and ‘sweet.’

Dupee then moved on to Reb’l Fleur by Rihanna, which is made up of ‘subtle floral notes from hibiscus, violet & tuberose, with a touch of coconut water, over its gentle and soft base’ per the official description. 

‘I feel like every teenage girl in the 2000s wanted to own this perfume,’ she said about the fragrance as she showed off the pink-and-gold packaging complete with a photo of the A-lister herself on the box.

‘Definitely the biggest bottle out of all of them,’ the vlogger noted. ‘By the way, none of these were expensive.’

As she took it out of the packaging, Dupee noted that the bottle of Rihanna’s perfume was ‘gorgeous,’ and drew similarities to how Kardashian’s looked.

‘This is very sexy and very musky,’ she said. ‘One of The Cheetah Girls would definitely wear this.’

And, finally, Dupee said that she saved Fantasy by Britney Spears for last, which comes in an adorable, hot pink bottle adorned with rhinestones.

When testing out Rihanna’s perfume, she noted that the packaging was similar to Kardashian’s bottle
