Opus VI is my fav in this Collection... green olives and frankincense are the first notes to me, and it last forever. Great review!
Thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts 🍻
The honest blogger in RUclips. Respect from your Arab Brother
Thank you for watching & commenting 🙏🙏🙏
Propably the best opus from the collection and only one i have.
Its a great fragrance... thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
Great review as usual, Ramsey. I'm ordering a sample of this tonight actually and looking forward to trying it. As of this moment full vintage bottles of VI are near impossible to find right now - all the discounters seem to be sold out. Sad.
Wow I thought I saw some when I made my video... that is sad 😒
Loving your opus series of reviews. Apart from being one of my favourite ambers, and being almost impossible to get hold of in the Uk, there was a time that I wore opus 6 to work only for a pregnant lady to throw up from the smell. Cue me washing myself in the bathroom to try to get it off me - but it wouldn’t budge. All I can say is that baby was not an amouage fan - probably all grown up now wearing sauvage 😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂
What a story! I wouldnt have washed it off... she already urped so whats the problem?
Great video, I have 4 bottles 1-2012, 2013 , 2014, 2015, ❤
Thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
What a great line, I really enjoy this one, not my favorite, but a good fragrance! Cheers, Ram!
Fantastic indeed... thanks for watching & commenting 🙏🙏🙏
Z11 is also known as Amberketal, a woody-amber material discovered in 1954 and used (firstly?) in Anais Anais (1978) (Scent & Chemistry book). Don't know why they chose to highlight in the notes pyramid but sometimes they do it with proprietary synthetics or special natural extractions (Akigalawood, LMR division of IFF's naturals, etc)
Ahhhhh I have heard of Amberketal... didnt realize they were the same thing.. thanks for sharing 🙏🙏🙏
@@RamseytheRam my pleasure buddy!
This Opus is one of my fav in the Library Collection, sadly discontinued as you said. For me it's a modernized version of a traditional amber like, let's say SL's Ambre Sultan, but done in a more transparent, 'airier' (but powerful) style typically of the Amouage line
Yes it definately has that ambery aspect and has really good performance... thanks for watching Gonzalo 🤌🤌🤌
Great review, Ramsey. I have Opus VI. Your descriptions are spot on, and I agree. It is a very strange, artistic use of uncommon synthetics. It's very unique. I do prefer Opus VII. I've worn it a few times, yet I do not fully understand it. It depends on my mood. Re: Amouage website, it wasn't that long ago, a couple-few months from this posting, that there was a link where some original Opus perfumes in the old bottles could be viewed and purchased. As they revised their website recently, that link is no longer found. Shame this is one is discontinued.
It is a shame... opus VII next 💪🐏
Also love Opus 6. Only the real ones are still sticking by it currently. Ramsey. Danke Schoen. 🙏 It levels up Pardon by Namassito. Another take on that DNA with Amouage level art and raw materials which are amazing. More dimensional than Pardon but Pardon is also great.
Thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
My first amouage. Still one of the favorites. I have new 3 pcs in reserve😀 To my knowledge discontinued
Having 3 in reserve is always a good thing Tom 💪🐏
Well the whole previous library collection got discontinued and only a few selected ones got carried over into a new age in the new bottles.
That's what official sales representative told me more than a year ago. These old bottles are not sold by the official partners of the Amouage and can only be found on discounters.
Oh wow interesting way to look at it ... thanks so much for watching & commenting 🍻
Hey gotta ask you this because you own the bottles. Is the Blend 30 a weak fragtance to your nose let's say compared to original Burberrys for men? I now own these and the Blend 30 arrived a week ago and I instantly tought this is really weak like almost feels like third less oompf than the Burberrys. It's reslly nice but weak and I can't stop thinking if something was messed with the bottle even when it was sold as new but not sealed.
Not at all... my blend 30 is a huge heavy fragrance... I will review it soon 💪🐏
Okay thanks, I'm pretty sure I was sold a cutted bottle since applying alot I only smell alcohol and then I get the perfume unlike my other fragrances.
@@Rafael-vu2xn yeah that sux man... sorry to hear that
Perfumeonline is based in Canada and they’re legit. I’ve ordered several perfumes from them. You used them as an example so I thought I would share.
I have used fragrance buy . ca but never perfumeonline...but that price on the 100ml Tester of Opus VI is legit .... thats a lot of juice for that price now a days... thats like the price of sauvage at retail now a days lol
Cheers Rams ,interesting for sure ,might just take a quick look on the discounter sights lol 😂. Happy Sunday man 🙏✌️👍
Happy Sunday Bren, enjoy the time off us working chaps get and here is to a chiefs loss today God willing 🙏🙏🙏
@@RamseytheRam fingers crossed for ya man my soccer team is all about inflicting pain and suffering on their fans for decades now, we’re gluttons for punishment and when we get a big win it’s like let me recheck and reprocess what just happened there hahaha 😝
Haven't smelled anything from this line, I don't think 🙃
🐏🦆
And what is z11?!
Its a Firmench material that smells like a wood encased in metal... i think

Been tempted to blind buy this but it's not as cheap where I am. I just got Opus II though and III is on the way, tempted on IV we'll see. I already have IX and XI and 50ml old bottle Silver Oud.
VI is the one with the jacked up prices from what I can get hold of easily, which I guess speaks to it being one of the best of the line. How close is it to Fate Man?
Not close to fate man at all IMHO
@@RamseytheRamOK good. How about Journey? Sounds like you might think there is some overlap with the sichaun pepper at least.
@GoodDaySir I got a tester bottle for $160. Maybe a slight hint of overlap with Journey but totally different. To my nose the closest to Opus VI is Givenchy Gentleman 1974, in the air probably hard to tell apart, same performance too. It’s not worth the high price imo, definitely a weird one, requires to sample first. I’m big fan of Silver Oud, Royal Tobacco, Overture, Interlude, Jubilation, Boundless and own almost the entire masculine Amouage line and this one is a miss for me. Maybe for the collectors to fill a hole in their collection or for the true fans of such scent profile.
Can't find website that, as you said, had it super cheap. This juice is basically sold out everywhere in the EU and all places that have it either do not ship to EU or w/ all the fees 100ml become like 500$ ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ahhhh that sux, i think it was called perfumeonline but they are in Canada so they may not ship to the EU
Dude, don’t get obsessed by this bottle, it’s definitely not worth $500 and to me personally not worth discounted $160. Amouage has much better offerings and other brands too. Better to grab a few Orto Parisi for this money. Or try Givenchy Gentleman 1974 and decide for yourself if it’s worth $500 because it’s very close.
@@g3tr1ghttt Different people, different needs. Got it off German ebay for sub 200$ already (95/100ml)
Quality-wise sure, it is high quality just like most of the Chong’s era creations.

Now the words milk broom are stuck in my head. What is that like a broom you hit milk drinkers with? 🧹 mmMMMMooooOOOove that quaffle! 😂 Can you tell it's a Saturday night? Sounds like one of Morillas' better creations.
Yes this and gucci guilty absolute 🥛🧹
