Almond Suede really looks interesting. Arquiste's releases since the pandemic has been solid with Peau, Indigo Smoke, Lor De Louis and A Grove by the Sea have all been interesting and delivers on the inspiration. Might be the best Indie/niche house from the USA
That's a great questions - I find Divine Vanille more wearable and a lot more affordable too - Ani is heavier and greener. I would try them first and compare (both are stellar vanillas)!
Will check that Anfas, also Almond Suede. I'm waiting for Bois Impérial Extrait from Essential Parfums, love the original, never tried Divine Vanille, sounds good. Thanks fort the list Max!!!
Antidote from Regalien is one of my all-time faves. Think it's a complete improvement on the idea/DNA of Naxos. It's along the lines of Ambre Des Abysses from Houbigant, which I also love, but leans less into the resinous amber and aquatics. Excellent picks
Interested in trying the Arquiste, I have heard other people say that it's not as sweet as one would expect. That Divine Vanille description was quite overdone since it's clearly a Herod dupe.
Arquiste almond suede (not very sweet at all) quite classy and well-balanced leather - and I do NOT agree that Divine Vanille is a Herod dupe, they go in a different direction and there ins't tobacco (so it is more wearable for those that don't like the tobacco inflections)

You have a unique style that I really appreciate!
Thanks Michael, much obliged 🤝
great list! Divine Vanille is awesome for the price and clearly analogous to Herod for obvious reasons. can't wait for the Balchaud line to launch!
Thank you for your feedback Matty. (I'm eagerly waiting for Balchaud's line as well)
Top list, and classy touch on the mention of Olivier Pescheux 👌🏽
Thanks Max, another great one..SOTD TF Moss Breches.
Thanks Raphael - TF Moss Breches one of my all time favorites - great choice brother! I hope to see you in New York this December... 🤝
@@MaxForti I just might be there..Montreal not too far.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day
Thanks Michael, you as well brother!
Where can I find Balchaud’s Mango Cuir? Thank you
Their official site should be up on 10/17 (I believe that is the only place to purchase it at this time)
@@MaxForti thank you
Fantastic video I have of them I am agree with you thank you so much
I had sample of Divine vanilla. It's reminded me of kilian angels share.
Yes, they are in the same family - but remember that Divine Vanille came out in 2019 and angel's share in 2020...
Great video as always . Max can you do a video showing how you spray your clothes please ?
Sure, I will show that on my upcoming (Make a lasting impression video) stay tuned! ;)
@@MaxForti Thanks Max, I appreciate it

Would you pick the Vanilla fragrance over Ani
That's a great questions - I find Divine Vanille more wearable and a lot more affordable too - Ani is heavier and greener. I would try them first and compare (both are stellar vanillas)!
Excellent Video Max! Thank you.👋👋👋🔥💯
Hope u review Akasha FreeShape Milano Soon
Tudo bem Max Fort

Thanks, I agree - Ambre Des Abysses from Houbigant is one of my favorite discoveries this year!
@maxforti is the bran of mango cuir balchaud Paris are goin to be at scentxplore 2024 ?
Yes, they sure are! (one of this year's highlights for up-and-coming niche perfume brands...
Power Up!

Let's go! ⚡
Max, where can one purchase Mango Cuir, or at least sample it?
Hey, the site is under update (should be up next week 10/17) in the meantime for a sample, I know Perfuum.com will have it in stock soon...
Great Video Max! Thank you.👌🏻🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Max do you have a working link for the mango cuir?
