You are the Gordon Ramsay of perfumery. You blend masterpieces and have a fantastic palate! You also don’t bullshit the viewers with marketing and crappy advertising. You tell us your opinion, what you smell, straight forward, no exceptions. That you for being a rare breed. Keep up the great work!!
I had to filter out the swaring out.As a lot of people got very upset by the waring, Overspraying and rubbing or arms. Bit sad that not im a deodorised version of myself. But I swear a lot as well.
Thank you Aaron! We love you!
@@AaronTerenceHughes An artist makes his/her worst work when they are trying to appease the masses. We love you for who you are Aaron, don't ever let the opinions of others change who you are and how you do things. It's what brought most of us here ❤️
How dark and heavy this fragrance is is one of the reasons I like it. It reminds me of something Beaufort London would do. Something not very approachable to the masses but if you enjoy it, it will be a love...much like what you said at the end of the video.
I agree with this massively. Its not mass appealing at all. Its not much like the Original at all.
Amazing review!! Love the honesty!! Every other reviewer won’t do this!! Drives me crazy it’s impossible to like every fragrance!! ❤️🦄
An Aaron notification on a rainy Saturday: much needed. 😍 Have a good day A.! 🦄
My pleasure
We appreciate the suffering for the review 😅
😂🤣😂
I really tried to love this.
=)
Heroic effort on this review..lol
I started laughing the second I saw the thumbnail.
I know. I never know what video unicorn will do
Tom Ford adds the word "intense" to one of their existing fragrances and then slap an extra £100 on the price 😂
Isn't that the truth
I agree Intense should mean a darker richer more sublime version of the original. Not designer bug spray!
I love your hand movements man. You're like the Dr. Strange of the fragrance world.
And you are incredible at what you do. Appreciated.
My brother wore this while we were on a trip, so imagine being locked in a small space with this for hours and hours, I nearly died
Oh gosh I would like that at all.
I absolutely love this solely on the descriptors you've used; dark, bitter, and dry. Unlike Tobacco Oud, which I find repulsive, this one sweetens up for me in the dry down. Appreciate your honest and unbiased review.
I wouldn't give this time to dry down as I didn't like it at all. Unfortunately fragrance really effects me so this felt very unpleasant
Your channel and clèmence cc fragrance are the most informative youtubers. Appreciate your time and effort you give to us.
one of my favorites
Mine too!
What is it that u rave about with this one?
ATH hands down best reviews. Love your clips.
🤣🤣🤣 I was laughing my head off while watching this one. I love how honest you are in your reviews, and I cannot wait to see your thoughts on Chanel Antaeus xD
p.s. I had the same reaction, except I couldn't tell the similarities with the original I really love.
And thanks for explaining that Oud Wood is actually "Amber" Wood. It has much more sense since Ajmal Amber Wood smells pretty similar to TF "Oud Wood."
That's why we love you. I was expecting a usual good review as it's a Tom Ford fragrance but you being you poured your heart out. This was unexpected as its Tom Ford but enlightening nonetheless.
I went into this so excited and wanting to love this. But its not Oud wood intense at all. It doesn't feel like Tom ford at all either
@@AaronTerenceHughes Which is very strange as Tom Ford has set the bar so high for themselves. Maybe they are human afterall.
Great review as usual. I'm really excited because I just ordered Alpha Male which will be my first fragrance from your company. I'm really looking forward to checking out your style of perfumery.
I've been gone from your channel for a few months and I must say your hair is much better/prettier now! It looks amazing, props to whoever was responsible for your hair transplant.
This stuff is potent. IT SMELLS BAD INTITIALLY. I sprayed my self at Macy's with this and thought it smelled awful Initially. Then as the day progressed the scent evolved to a beautiful wood, musk, and somewhat sweat spicey smell. The shocking part was that the scent remind on my skin for 48 hours despite showering and scrubbing my body. My clothes smelled like it even after I washed them. My jacket was out in the closet and it had the scent for nearly 4 months afterward
Imagine throwing a coat, sprayed w this, into a vacuum seal bag and sitting it till next winter haha
Totally agree, i didn't like it 5 hours ago when I put a sample on my hand, now I am drawn to that area a lot
Agree completely! See my above review. I absolutely could not stop smelling my arm hours after the spray (similar to my very first encounter in the 1980's with the evil champ Drakkar Noir).
Really interesting to watch Aaron, especially as you love the original. This is we people come here.
Omg i could feel pain through my screen.. glad I clicked on the video. Thanks for the honesty!
this review was funny as fu.. 😂😂😂 thank you Aaron, salute from Zurich
My pleasure
i once saw a video of a master martial artist in kenjutsu( japanese swordmaship) , i noticed that he instead of critiquing, directly he praised first and compliment and could saw the good about what he was watching, also his critiques were like "oh he tried this, he must be super strong" instead of "bullshit move no one can do that", i think you are indeed a master perfumer, you praise, you tell , you dont bullshit even thou at first i kinda feel that way i have come to love you reviews, you manage to convey feeling, thats very hard to do. please keep indulging us in your work
I don't have the slightest clue of what notes and scents he is talking about, but I subscribe due to his expressions and bluntness.
Hey Aaron, thanks for the cool courageous review on a very challenging fragrance.
I own a full bottle of oud wood intense,well actually I had 2 bottle till not so long ago because I had strong connection with the way it smelled I figured why not have a backup bottle.
After applying it for a few times I got a few identical feedbacks from 3 different people saying it smells like a car garage and greasy metal parts.
I was Really surprised by they're description because that was the first thing that came into my mind when I first sprayed it and while I'm dealing with fragrances reviews the people who
Said that have nothing to do with fragrances.
My question is did you spot anything that fits this interpretation and if you did, where do you think it's coming from ?
Thanks...
Aaron hopefully you might of saved a lot of your viewers from wasting money 👏👏👏 thanks for another honest review
My pleasure
Staggering honest review, as always
He looked like he was 1/8 of a second away from vomiting. Thanks for the honest reivew!
Just another No Oud Wood Intense...Next!
Tobacco Oud Intense and Oud Wood Intense are my favorite Tom Ford. I have jaclets with this scent still on them from spraying in the winter.
I love Tobacco Oud, I’m wondering if I should try TO Intense.
@@The_Babbling_Brooksmy wife didn't care for the regular one. The intense is more smokey.
Eric DeFilippo I guess I need to give it a go. Although I love the dry down of the original. Not always a fan of more smoke.
It bothers me that more people dont talk about all the Oud fragrances out there that dont have Oud in! Huge respect to you for saying it!
Amazing video Aaron! Upon your recommendations, I have Layton and Grand Soir coming in the mail, cant wait to try them. I'd LOVE to hear your opinions on two fragrances, Oud For Greatness from Initio, and Triumph of Bacchus from Argos fragrances. OFG supposedly has real agarwood oils so I'd love to see if you can detect it or if it's mostly synthetic. And TOB is just a beautiful scent overall. Thanks again for the amazing content!
I really enjoy the dry down of this fragrance. I get a lot of positive feedback from it.
I really think its going to suit a small amount of people. Those people will love it. Its not mass appealing which is why I was surprised. Normally Tom ford produces mass appealing fragrance. This took me bysuprise
I absolutely loved this fragrance
Wow...lol...you just sunk deeper and deeper into despair by the minute with this one. I too am good with the original; not very eager to try this one now at all, lol. I'm never a fan of leather accords, at all, so I needed to hear this. Cheers, great review.
I love his facial expressions and his perfume analysis, trying to explain the raw materials used.
Hands down this is THE best perfume. I’m gutted that it’s discontinued.
I've never seen you tortured by a scent. Every molecule of your body and mind seemed to be revolting to this aroma.
Great review..SPOT ON
The most enjoyable review from him!! 😅
I actually really like this one! It's strong without a doubt and the castoreum and angelica root in the opening (it's a base note but it persists throughout the life of the fragrance and is quite overpowering in the initial spray) is really potent. After I let this dry down a bit, it becomes an incredible scent.
As it's a Tom Ford "Intense" fragrance it's of course even more overpriced than the normal private blend scents so I'm never buying this one. Apparently it might be discontinued as I can't see it on TF's website.
Yeah. I have this. When first applied to the skin it’s overpowering but after 5 mins it mellows soooooo damn well with so much depth. So unique and long lasting but yes, very polarising.
Love your approach))
Have you tried Gucci Guilty Absolute?
Really appreciate the honesty and simply upright review both good and bad.Can literally see the suffering and aaron turning red
I'm glad I'm not the only one who found this off-putting
Perfumer: How dry would like this perfume
Tom Ford : YES
Your reaction reminds me of the celebrities on Hot Ones where they eat the increasingly hot wings and try to answer interview questions while their mouth is on fire. The tom ford fragrances can be very intense and polarizing as if they are daring us to like it, in some occasions and in my opinion.
His reviews are closest you can get to smelling it. On point
Hey Aaron. Great review! So do you recommend layering the original "Oud Wood" with anamalix or santal extreme?
Santal Extreme. The amount of Sandlewood and musk in it balances it perfectly.
You should try either Moschino Toyboy or Parfums de Marly Carlisle next. Both amazing and I reckon right up your street. Love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Wow, the facial expressions in this review. You can see that Aaron really didn't want to shit on this one.
Awesome review! And considering the idea that this Oud Wood and the original should have been combined, what about layering the two? Not that that makes any financial sense though 😬
So honest and perfect review , is it possible that you've been send the wrong sample ?
Now I Wana check the perfume out.. After that review. Thanks for that Aaron, cud feel ur pain
Totally agree. It's quite the opposite of the original, which is less strong, but makes people want to come closer. This one is just repellent.
Quick question, do you have any of the old stock left, I need one more bottle in the white box to complete my display 😂 a pyramid of ATH fragrance one might say, I do hope so 🤞🏻
Have you tried a Louis Vuitton Nouveau Monde? It is very leathery on me and becomes animalic, it has rose, leather, saffron and real agarwood (they claim). It would be so interesting to hear your thoughts!
"Im going to take a shower" lol we had very similar reactions to this but yours was priceless...
Now I am interested in your thoughts on Tobacco Oud 😁
Lmao it looks like he’s having an attack through the whole opening
The thumbnail told me all I needed to know 😂
This is an absolute masterpiece
Dear Aaron
Has your opinion of Oud Wood Intense changed a bit after 3 years?
From my experience with animalic and harsh perfumes it takes time to understand and connect with their idea
Like for example with Dior Leather Oud so I'm curious to know
regards
Man that looked rough. Props for the commitment
I like the original i love this one!!!Does almost what tobacco oud does to me and ppl i involve with...dominance at its best
Reminds me of a cross between Oud Wood and Noir Anthracite, with a little bit of vintage Italian Cypress thrown in. It’s austere, heavy but smoothens out after about 45 minutes. Definitely not for everyone.
Hi Aaron where are you going to try Coeur de Noir by Beaufort?cheers
Glad you finally revived one of my top 3 fragrances ever. To me, the reasons you dislike it is the reasons I love it! Dry, medicinal, with zero sweetness, and very unique. Insane longevity and push!
Your right, you will either like it or not, very polarizing.
Thanks for your take on this scent.
Good, honest review. I find it very odd that the pricemark of this still doesn't warrant real oud and for that reason i wouldn't even sample it but i'm glad someone did. It would be interesting to know how much real oud should've been used and how much that could potentially cost.
Estee Lauder can afford to by in Oud and smash the price down.
@@AaronTerenceHughes Which makes me wonder whether the choice not to is about penny pinching or the belief that consumers either don't know the difference or don't care.
Maybe this is just me but I got a decant awhile ago and it reminds me of Tom Ford Extreme for Men in the signature line but without all the juicy/delicious notes. Just the very base with no sweet plum, fig, rum etc.
The thumbnail of this on RUclips of Aaron looking grossed out is soooo funny to me.
I would really like to see your review on cuir intense by Guerlain
Can you show the name label on the bottle, and where did you say it came from? :)
Thanks Aaron, I will stay far away from Oud Wood Intense.
If you loved the original I dont think your love this.
I have it and it’s not so nice at the start but it gets so much better the longer it’s on
i want to buy your oud fragrance so bad. the original oud wood by tom ford is my favorite absolutely. (le baiser du dragon by cartier in close second) youre completely right though. the oud doesnt stick around long at all. ugh i want to buy it so bad and one day i will!!!!
That thumbnail alone is worth a like
I like to spray 2 sprays of TF Oud Wood along with 1 spray of TF Ombré Leather. I think that might achieve what the Oud Wood Intense was trying to do…perhaps.
This is a very nice scent, just spray light, winter only and enjoy
You suffered SO much throughout this entire video, you've earned yourself another 2 week break Aaron 😂😂
No rest for me now. But thank you for your concern:)
😂the honest Drama! I love it. Ath can love it or hate it, either way it's an entertaining education!
I like the thumbnail for this one
This is a great one. It’s discontinued so expect the completely positive reviews within a year or so
Is it? Well, then it's time to break the bank. Saved up for this moment...
It is??
Xavier Pettway Yes.
My reaction to OWI is about the same as yours...
Can't believe Tobacco Oud Intense came out so enjoyable (great dry tobacco note) but OWI is so harsh & abrassive.
Can you review Alien ( before they reformulated it if poss ) aura and angel by mugler 😂
I love the reviews that drive you to the shower 😂🥳
Would love to hear your take in jean Paul gaultier Kokorico
Please, review TOM FORD F$CKING FABULOUS!!!!
Probably one of the best leathers IMO
Lol, those facial expressions. I could have watched this with no volume and I would have known EXACTLY how you felt about it.
Damn what a video Hahahaha, that’s a go the other way on this fragrance based on this review!
Aaron you are 1000% right about the clone houses! Oud wood intense clones are excellent they smell 99% the same so yeah it definitely doesn't have oud in it. I actually really Love oud wood intense though 😂 it is hard to wear at times but it makes me feel so different!
Dear Aaron, pls do a review about LV ombre nomad,
It's super dry and synthetic oud,
It's really killing my nose.,
I hate it.
Watched the review but the thumbnail told me all I needed to know 😂
What’s the sample company you used?
Its perfumista. Always wrapped really well and delivered really fast
Aaron Terence Hughes thanks! I got my bottle of Slut the other week and I love it!
Looks like my face when I put my nose on some fragrances as Chergui or Italian Cypress from TF 😂
I would love to see Chris Eubank review parfum 😂
When are your fragrances coming to the US?
We ship via out site once a month now:)
I smelt all of the Tom Ford fragrances in Harvey Nichols and remember this one smelt, harsh and rank, and certainly was the odd one out. I really like Oud Wood. This is nothing like an intense version of that unfortunately.
My friend, Gucci guilty absolute...I think it smells like poo, but I'm getting compliments from everyone, is it good?
Anyone know if theres anywhere I can get free samples online
I like it
Is there even a proper oud fragrance?
I mean, it somehow seems to me, that in every review I watched till now, which featured an oud fragrance, it always came to the point, that there is very little or no oud in it.
