La Nuit was never that strong (I had the 2012 version) to begin with so I'd ignore all the complainers and be happy with the current iteration. And I still appreciate you giving limelight to Cartier Declaration when no one else does, what an awesome frag.
Royal Oud is definitley one that I didn't appreciate on first spray but years later, I find it to be one of my favorites. I sold my original bottle but my grandpa bought me a new bottle after I told him I sold it. He always says Royal oud is the best fragrance ever made and I'm at my fragrance journey where I can see what he means. It's truly outstanding.
Man that’s awesome
I’ve always been curious about it, but my woody fragrance right now is wonderwood. Do you know if they compare at all? Would it be redundant for me to purchase royal Oud???
Glad to see Creed MI and YSL Nuit de Lhomme getting some love.
Vetiver by Guerlain is gorgeous.
I think we all get too caught up in longevity. The transients of fragrances are necessary imo. Just like real life settings, it's far better to leave a great impression and create memorable moments. Then, move on to the next, never ever stagnating or overataying your welcome.
Saw Guerlain Vetiver in the thumbnail, had to watch
I wonder if my comment calling M7 a masterpiece on your last video featuring it had any influence on this list 🤔 😅 I was so glad to see it pop up here. It truly is the first palatable, beautiful, and classy oud even if the original print marketing was a bit divisive 😂
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
I think people get too caught up in the longevity battles, and I find it unfair to compare 6 month old batches to bottles that have macerated for 7 years or longer, it is a no brainer that those bottles will last longer.
💯💯💯💯💯💯👍🏾
The point is that those bottles were a lot more potent when they came out! Otherwise this debate wouldn't exist.
@@ricolini70 There’s no way for you to actually know they were more potent unless you can compare a new bottle of it to a current bottle, which you can’t. the brain is not a reliable source of memory, especially something like smell, and the trends set by youtubers in the media has only created a false narrative and have thousands of people agreeing, when in reality, maybe only a handful of them have even tried the original batches of aventus. they’re just going with what they’re told.
Nah... The comparison is for the longevity between the first release and new bottles purchased recently. Notable for when a large conglomerate acquires a brand and reduces the quality as a means to cut cost. All the while, increasing the cost of the product. You know who I'm talking about.
@@MCWon212do they though? I know everyone says that. But has someone done an objective test or is it just anecdotal?
I’ve learnt that you can’t gauge performance unless you’ve personally tried it. My skin doesn’t let most perfumes last including some of the ones that are known to have beast mode performance. However, there are many that don’t last on most people that tend to last on my skin … eg. Juniper Sling by Penhaligon’s. Great classy and quality content as always. I love your style and the thought process behind it.
Millesime Imperial smells amazing, elegant fresh. Preforms well on my skin
0:50 love that - I really wish more people talked about the artists behind the scents and not just the fragrances themselves. Imagine being a perfumer and seeing tonnes of videos praising your creations without ever mentioning your name… must kinda suck a bit.
Fantastic video, really enjoyed this one. 🙌🏻
I also rediscovered Noir recently (after only sniffing it in passing at stores) after hearing you talk about it and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Really interesting stuff.
Thank you triple S! I agree, it makes no sense to not talk about the artists. No sense at all.
Happy to have a few on this list and agree with their inclusion! BDC Parfum, LNDL, and Millisimé Imperial which is my all time favorite scent and signature.
Great video as always 👍
Creed MI is great, never had a problem with performance.
MI is what got me into Creed. But it's been easily sided by Silver Mountain.
I got a newer gold bottle and it lasts well into the day. I love it.
I loved this. I tend to go back further to find my masterpieces but yours are incredibly artful and impactful.
Thank you Catherine!
This is a great video. Interesting choices that aren't always shared.
Thank you!
Another great video Brother
Got a sample of Millesime Imperial yesterday and it performed well on my skin in longevity. Projection is average but I’m totally fine with that.
very interesting vidéo and classy presentation, great job JUSTIN
Much appreciated!
DHP is something out of this world! I agree with you, the best dark fragrance I have ever smelled.
It’s back in stock now in South Africa, can’t wait to cop it.
M7 smells awesome to me 👌🏻
Three fragrances I own (and love) immediately came to mind when you defined "timeless masterpiece"...and two of them are older than Guerlain Vetiver:
1) Guerlain Jicky (created by Aimé Guerlain in 1889) -- Often said to be the first modern perfume (with "modern" having a different meaning, obviously, from the very presentist ways we often use it when talking about perfume) and the oldest fragrance in continuous production today. And it's still wonderful in its current form(s): lemon, lavender, vanilla, and some skank. Absolutely unisex, absolutely wonderful.
2) Knize Ten (François Coty and Vincent Roubert, 1925): The entire category of leather fragrances might not exist without this one. A floral leather that still wears great. Like Jicky, pretty unisex (though marketed to men from the start). The leather note here is extraordinarily realistic imo. When I first sampled this, I didn't connect to it. Somehow visiting a series of leather stores in Marrakesh created a kind of aha moment for me with it.
3) L'Air du Desert Marocain (Andy Tauer, 2005) -- The first indie scent I ever bought (back in 2008) and I've always had a bottle ever since. I loved it from the moment I tried it, but, as my perfume experience grew, my appreciation for its beauty and subtlety has only increased. Its success helped foster the current wave of indie perfumers...and influenced an extraordinary number of oriental fragrances in the years since it came out.
Great choices.
Pretty much agree with all the picks here, even though I can't personally pull (or stand, honestly) Reflection Man. Same with Guerlain's Vetiver, I can't stand vetiver and it ruins many perfumes for me but even I will say Guerlain's Vetiver is the vetiver I'd recommend as the definitive vetiver.
Good video today sotd Creed silver mountain water 👍🔥💯
Millesime Imperial was my intro into Niche Fragrances when l read an article saying it was one of Jay-Z's choices, and l just had to try it. I absolutely love it. Then again, l love almost all of Creed's scents (except Virgin Island Water - l hate coconut!).
I own 2 masterpiece fragrances... Dior Homme Parfum and Xerjoff Renaissance. They do something special for me when i wear those fragrances. They both put a "kool-aid" smile on my face.
Justin I saw YSL M7 sold in Douglas stores here in Bonn, Germany just days ago. Relatively easily available then. I've smelled it and yes, very nice woody spicy fragrance!
Agreeing with Amouage Reflection Man. I find it more similar to the new Gucci Guilty Elixir, the latter being creamier/denser. I think the two together make quite a great high-end, minimalistic, coherent combo. JPG Le Male could be added to make quite a trio, and in fact even a fourth one: Cuba Gold EDT, as budget alternative to Le Male itself.
I'm glad you could find M7!
I kind of sort of almost bought La Nuit de l’Homme back in the day but I preferred F by Ferragamo Black and still regard it as the superior fragrance.
new batch of millesimal imperial owner here, it lasts legitimately 4-5 hours on my skin which is plenty. may not be for all people but it certainly lasts for me! and projects very well!
Awesome!
I really like your content. You are so calm, sophisticated and respectable. So many fragrance channels are so cringe and vulgar. Thank you for bringing some class back into this world.
Thank you Kyle!
Love your content.
Thank you.
Nice video, J. C.
I got rid of my My Oud 7 Absolu after my wife (and my son, independently) kept telling me I smell like a very old man! 😅.
I was expecting GIT instead of Milly, and of course A-Men from Mugler as well as Le-Male from JPG. Your favorite, Eau Sauvage didn't make it too. That's very interesting. Peace! ✌️
I really like to get my hands on royal oud creed
Francois Demachy is a Master of his craft for sure Fahrenheit,Sauvage and the Homme lines are all timeless
I’ve only been in the fragrance game for a little bit but Carlisle stands out to me as a 1 of 1.
I have (according to me) 4 masterpieces in my 150+ collection. They are:
Ganymede
Jovoy Psychedelique
Guerlain l'homme ideal and
Dior Homme Parfum
Agreed!
Ganymede and Psychedelic are true masterpieces!
It's fun (in a good way) to see how your opinion on Tom Ford Noir has changed over the years, that one was also a bit of a challenge for me to warm up to. Last year I managed to get a second hand EDT bottle, I could sense the similarity with a more minty and citrusy aspect, less ''dark'' I presume less patchouli. Sadly it's a 10 year old bottle and it smells slightly rancid especially on skin, not sure what's up with that but I dont imagine I'll come accross it again for a reasonable price in 2024.
Sorry to hear about your bottle!
@@stayfreshproductions thank you, I re-wore Noir EDP today & yesterday and this one also has that ''sour'' aspect slightly, so perhaps it's just how they're both meant to smell. 👌
Dope video fam
Thank you bro
Thanks. Please (Guerlain derby vintage video).
Guerlain vetiver smells incredible today. The new parfum is great as well.
Just got the Parfum and I agree. Will talk about it soon
Alberto morillas is my fav master perfumer, I know I can blind buy any of his fragrance and I’ll love it (exception, fragrance one not included lol)
My favorite perfumers are Pierre Bourdon, followed by his apprentice, Jean Christph Herault. Combined they perfumed some of my favorite fragrances. Silver mountain water, millesime imperial, Erolfa, D&G The One Luminous Night and many more big hits (like Aventus).
@@rammul7801 that's great, I do love Green Irish tweed..
some of my favs from Alberto are the Bvlgari Man line, Acqua di gio line, Amouage Journey Man, ADP Colonia Intense, Penhaligon's tragedy of lord George and many more.. :D
Even frag one is probably pretty good, just Jeremy is a douche and its wayyyy overpriced.
True masterpieces
The old sims music really was in another league. My favorite tune from the games, thanks for finishing the phrase :p
😁
Id have to put Oud wood on this list, but as much as i love oud wood, imo the ultimate version of it has been created by Nishane with “Kredo” its so smooth, round, has a slight edginess and is incredibly alluring and intoxicating, def reccommend giving it a try bro💯, and tbh my bottle of La nuit from 2019, is quite strong 🤷🏽♂️
Justin I would like to take the moment to complain about performance. Thank you for another great video.
Lol. Thank you.
Royal Oud is special 💰
Curious what microphone you use, as I’m trying to differentiate whether the cool sound is the mic, your cool voice, or a combo of the two.
Haha thank you. It's a Yeti Blue USB Mic.
That voice ❤
Reflection Man to me is my entry level floral scent, with that Jasmine note being highlighted, which men can wear with ease. It doesnt mean they can but theres a better chance if they are averse to florals. Also, it seems the people who suggest that Reflection Man smells like Le Male arent wrong but theyre the type who barely scratch the surface. Both are powdery and have a floral note as a primary note, lavender for le male, but other than those i dont see NOR SMELL any other similarity. The Le Male fanboys can stop dreaming now; reflection man maybe in the same category but not the same league.
Well-said!
Yes, but there is fragrances similar and that do it arguably a tad better. Gucci guilty elixir in my opinion does the dna better with that added vanilla.
Help please!.... my skin may be be defective because vetiver smells terrible on me. Does anyone have suggestions for combinations with other frags so it doesn't continue to sit n collect dust. Thanx
Nothing wrong with your skin! It’s normal for some ingredients to not work for some people.
Excellent Video, Justin! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks!
Versace Dreamer, Kouros Body (old formulations ofc) masterpieces for me.
Maybe I'm the only person on the planet that find nothing special about DHP. Just heavy Iris make-up scent that's choking me 🤷
How close is Armaf milestone to creed millesime imperial?
Is it like 90%?
To me, like 75%. Others will say differently.
Only second because I’m on the toilet 😂 love your vids!
Royal oud is my most fev of men fragrance 😍
😊
Hey Justin , very good video . I can do better editing in your videos which can help you to get more engagement in your videos . Pls lmk what do you think ?
Hello! I’m not interested. But thank you!
Justin, what's the background music?
There are several tracks in this video. At which point?
@@stayfreshproductions 16:35
I like your videos
Thank you
How different is Dior Homme Parfum from Intense? The old bottle and the new.
I can't answer that question with much detail because I don't own DHI. But to put it simply, DHP is more leathery while DHI is more chocolatey.
@@stayfreshproductions So owning both is not redundant?
@@yousif_mangirous I believe it is redundant to own both
Future Justin again!!! My hero ❤
🦸🏾♂️
Tom ford noir edp........ ❤❤
Get ur nose on lavish by boadicea the victorious. Its a better version of guerlain vetiver pour homme
That Sims skit 😂
I agree that you should get a fragrance for sent and not its performance, but even for collectors with hundreds of bottles it’s sometimes hard to justify purchase so expensive when it’s not going to last you through your expected occasion, especially when there’s alternatives. That being said, I have a ton of fragrances that I love and just have to reapply.
What's the name of that classical song?
It's The Sims Buy Mode 3
@@stayfreshproductions you introduced me to a whole new thing..downloading a lot of the sims music now. Thanks!
Vetiver fregannces smell best on men, I find. For whatever reason I cannot cope with how it smells on me no matter which fragrance it is. maybe it’s just the foods I’m eating, I’m not sure. 🤷🏽♀️
That’s ok!
@@stayfreshproductions 💯…. Selecting fragrances is such a fine art which involves chemistry before one finds what their body’s chemistry will actually work with. What smells great on one person, won’t smell the same on another.
@@MysticPisces exactly! There is no right right and wrong with taste.
@@stayfreshproductions agreed!!
❤❤😊
Noir EDP by Creed?
It’s called a mistake. Thanks. 😎
@@stayfreshproductions I know, just busting chops. I love your videos bro.
I’m honestly scared to wear crazy strong fragrances. I like the intimacy of someone noticing when they are close. I’ve smelled people who enter the room and it’s too much. At the end of the day west what you like and enjoy.
Totally understand!
Justin's B Roll skills are next level.
Thank you my friend.
I think we'll get a BDC elixir seeing how Dior went with doing an elixir lol now the mystery is will it be a summer elixir or a cold weather elixir. My guess is the latter. These major designer get real lazy and conservative with their main colognes for some reason maybe they put more resources towards their clothing lines instead of prioritizing their colognes 😂
You mentioned Creed under Tom Ford Noir 😅 Extra future Justin to the rescue!
These are only masterpieces for expert connoisseurs
What do you consider a masterpiece?
@@stayfreshproductions I’m not quite sure, what I mean is i think the very niche fragrances would be lost on the general public you need to be somewhat of an expert in the field to understand the notes. Yes the original creed mile/ aventus are a masterpiece. But I suppose something like mainstream le male or 1 million could be in there.
DHP is the GOAT
I'm too broke to buy a fragrance just to try. I would rather wear it regularly.
I had both of y'all beat but I was working lol. People will bitch about anything. Love chanel bleu parfum
How is the performance “a subjective variable” man?
Because everyone has their own level of sensitivity to individual aromachemicals, their own sensitivity of their sense of smell as a whole, and their own tolerance to nose blindness. Also some people count ‘longevity’ as how long they can smell a scent in the air around them and consider a fragrance “gone” once it settles closer to the skin whereas others still enjoy it as a skin scent and count how long they can smell it on the skin until it’s gone completely. So put this all together and everyone experiences scents differently.
You can see it here in the comments with plenty of people saying they get great performance out of Millesime Imperial… go read some Fragrantica reviews and you’ll see many people feel the complete opposite. if performance wasn’t subjective, then this wouldn’t be the case and everyone would agree.
The fact that on Fragrantica 143 people have rated Orto Parisi Megamare as having ‘moderate’ longevity, and 215 people have voted 4711 Cologne as also having ‘moderate’ longevity, really drives home this point. 😂
@@SirSillageSniffington the fact that anyone has their own opinions about let’s say longevity doesn’t mean that it’s a subjective matter. With your reasoning why don’t we go ahead and say colors are subjective because we don’t really know how everyones occipital lobe is interpreting that reflection of light. Even if some people are saying contradictory things on orto parisi, the fact that statistics show most of them are experiencing a certain performance it means that it is not entirely subjective anymore. We can still say there are some subjectivity to it but I don’t agree on saying that “performance is subjective”
@@alimhzmh1400 That’s a very good (and well written) point. You are correct that there is a definite bell curve with these ratings; here’s Millesime Imperials for instance (from 2647 votes):
Very Weak - 8%
Weak - 18%
Moderate - 53%
Long Lasting - 17%
Eternal - 4%
So yes, statistically speaking, a person is more likely to find Orto Parisi fragrances strong than they are weak… so I can see why one could argue that means they’re not completely subjective.
However, isn’t this the case with many subjective things?
- Many people say that one’s taste in food is subjective but then statistically most people enjoy Pizza.
- People also say that one’s taste in music is subjective but then at the time they were big, most people enjoyed The Beatles.
- Art taste is also said to be subjective but then most people seem to enjoy Monet’s or other popular artist’s works.
- Perception of beauty is considered subjective but a large amount of people seem to find certain celebrities or models fairly universally accepted as attractive.
So with many ‘subjective’ matters you are going to get a normal distribution curve whereby the majority of people will feel a similar way - so does that mean none of these things are subjective either? If your answer to that is “yes” then it shows that one’s definition of what is “subjective” is ironically also subjective, in which case it wouldn’t be surprising that you and Justin disagree.
Sir Sillage has said everything I would say in response to your question. But to answer your follow up question about colors: we very much see colors somewhat subjectively. How do you know that your "red" is the same as my "red"? How would you describe the color red, anyway? Human perception is completely variable.
If you haven't seen this very informative video about it, I highly recommend it:
ruclips.net/video/evQsOFQju08/видео.htmlsi=X1z7aAG0RGgNmJV9
@@stayfreshproductions It’s not difficult to answer your question. I might not know that what is your inner experience of color red, but I can tell you that there is a considerable degree of universality on how colors are perceived outside of us. So you can easily talk about your experience of “red” with another person regardless of what you two might really experience inside.
In general I prefer companies taking their time with new releases opposed to cranking out perfumes every month. However I have to say Chanel has taken too much time. Please release something original again!
Guerlain's Vetiver is unbearable to me, but really like Grey Vetiver EDT. Wouldn't be caught dead wearing Reflection man either. It smells too feminine for my taste.
MI not just lack the performance but lose the DEPTH over time.
I am sad because with that much price no one can justify buying it.✌️
I'm debating just picking up the Milestone clone because I heard its really well done and $25 bucks.
@@blary5298 yes it is😏✌️
Some may still justify it!
Timeless masterpiece = Dior Fahrenheit
It was in the first episode
Vetiver to me is one of the most nauseating smells there is.🤮
Also ambergris oud and incense 🤮🤢
15:49 mistake ? Noir EDP Creed?
What do you think?
2002 M7 and the M7 of today are two completely different fragrances got nothing to do with the Original 2002
Well the product history is confusing, to say the least. The M7 sold today is a renamed (and possibly reformulated) version of the clear bottle M7 Oud Absolu sold a few years ago, which is in turn a different fragrance from the black bottle M7 Oud Absolu, which was later resold in the “La Collection” line. How similar or different these are from each other is a source of endless debate, and the design houses seem to have no interest in making it easy for us.
@@DeflatingAtheism i had all three batches of the 2002 M7, all three of them are beautiful, i do still have the original 2002 M7 on my shelf, and i tried absolu one you mentioned and couple of months ago i went to a boutique to try the latest M7, the only thing in common is the name, the fragrance itself is completely different not even 1% identical, the old M7 is well balanced Rosemary and Oud based fragrance, the new one is an expired root bear and dr pepper, no connection what so ever, original M7 was a masterpiece that unfortunately no one today will know how it was, it's a playful flirty Oud/rosemary fragrance, you don't have to be very formal, causal playful date night kind of scent, unlike today if you need something for that occasion people will recommend a sweet gourmand, no problem with that i love gourmand, but the 2002 M7 was truly special, i tried doing the fragrance community a favor by donating samples to armaf, lattafa and Afnan but they all refused my offer i literally live within an hour away from their factories, but hey i guess the original M7 belongs in the 2000s, it might offend someone these days lol
