Reviewing 'Vanilla Sex' from Tom Ford. www.aaronteren... Instagram - AaronTerenceHughes #AaronTerenceHughes #PerfumerReviews #TomFord Music: Sleepdebt - I C U
Firstly you are THE guy to be talking about it lol. Second, I think Vanilla Sex totally encompasses the current state of Estee Lauder's Tom Ford and the direction it's going. Wanting you to get excited for something you wouldn't want as a teenager let alone a grown experienced adult. Give me daring, give me passion, push my limits every time.
Looking forward to the release of your vanilla fragrance. I’ll 100% purchase it’s my favourite note. Initio absolute aphrodisiac currently one of my favs.
This is the best perfume review ever! From a new hobbyist point of view. In 3 minute you unlocked the code for me. 1. Batch your materials together in groups that just blend well together. 2. Just learn the various groups that then combine. 3. Add enhancer the fit with the blended groups Mind blown😊
Thought the name was perfect for the fragrance. Vanilla Sex leaves you wanting more. It’s still sex. And of course I’ll take it, but I want something more. Something fun. Perfect analogy for the fragrance in my opinion.
I’m more here for Aaron grappling with the fragrance names, the bad bottling and crappy caps. The actual reviews are fun too, but I agree with this one. The name isn’t offensive. It’s just dumb.🤷🏽♂️😂💀🤣 I love you, Aaron.😊🙌🏾❤️
Aaron -‘I don’t review packaging i review fragrances’ : Aaron - ‘i’ll knock some points off as i really hate the name, but ‘slut’ is ok because I think it’s funny’. 😅
fell in love with the smell at first sniff but I do find it to be more attractive on ladies, the price is indeed very high but if you got the many to spare, it's one of the most delicious vanilla fragrance out there!
Ever since Tom Ford has been acquired, they've relaunched their fragrances at a higher price. Aaron, can you do a comparison between the older Vanille Fatale and the new release?
A long time ago I use to make extracts for a large food company . Back then real vanilla extract went for $20,000.00 CDN for a 20 gallon drum . And yes it was very dark and thick . The artificial Vanilla extract had more water as well as coumarin and vanillin in it and less alcohol .
@@professionalpookie He was mentioning the price of Real Vanilla , my comment was affirming the high price of the product back in the day . OK enough for ya ???
One of my favorite things about Aaron's videos is when he describes what he'd imagined the scents would be, or how he feels they could be improved. Having the opportunity to get inside his head and "smell" them that way is so much fun. I can't wait until ATH fragrances are easier to get hold of, because his perfumery is exciting...and "Vanilla Sex" most definitely is not.
@@buddhist1983For oud wood? Most certainly not. I have smelled a few fragrances that i would drop 500 on without even second guessing, though, But definitely nothing from TF
Aaron thank you very much for a great review as always 🙏 Could you review Nishane: Afrika-Olifant It is an amazing fragrance (my favourite) and I want to hear your thoughts and the assessment of the ingredients
I love it. Pricey indeed, so ill likely get the decanter next. But I like to mix this with Tabacco Vanile. The dry down is soooo good. But the two together blend very well.
I'm wearning this now (from a sample 2ml bottle). It's lovely, but very, very expensive. The bottle quality doesn't match the brand rep or quality of the smell at all. Why brand as luxury when the bottle (beside looks) is anything but?
I like vanilla sex The name The … movement Not so much the perfume Smells just like vanilla/almond extract - I kind of like how it’s not regular sweet vanilla cake… but it just smells like the extract for me - a bit too basic for the price - I like basic too, but not for that price - bottle is pretty
I think most of the people don’t know what vanilla sex is. Vanilla sex is often just described as anything which is not kink or rough sex. So that means it’s any sex that does not involve things like: slapping, gripping, spitting, strangulation, hair pulling, biting, gagging, or domination/submission, consensual exchange of power, role playing, discipline, restraint, humiliation, or pain of any kind. Now that you know that, You understand that the name fits quiet well that consensual overpriced scent. I know that raw materials can be very pricey. But in this case imo it just doesn’t worth the money to just have an non very inspired scent. Missing old Tom Ford days.
I love Vanilla Sex. I got it as a gift and it lasted on me until the next day. They should have called it Vanilla Dream. I wear it to work and get tons of compliments. The perfumer is from Givaudan from what I heard. The name doesn’t bother me so much 😂🤷🏼♀️
What I would love most is if Tom Ford were to ask Aaron to create a unique classic Tom Ford signature fragrance with an ATH touch. I would blind buy litres of that.
At this point i wouldn't be shocked to hear that the next Tom Ford release is something like Tonka Honkers. 😭 On the name Vanilla Sex though, i do have to disagree with you. Fragrance is about evoking emotion in general, not just passion and intensity. That may be what you personally prefer from your fragrance, but if someone is looking for a fragrance that's pleasant and comforting, a little sexy without pushing boundaries too much, then i think it's a fine name. I'd wonder why you're looking for a fragrance like that at that price point, but i think people are entitled to want to their fragrance to make them feel however they want. It may not be for you, but that doesn't make it a bad name, in my opinion.
Vanilla Sex should be Nutty Sex. All you get is bitter almond. Such a disappointment. Lauder continues to ruin the brand. His best vanillas are Vanilla Fatale(the original) and Metallique
I spritzed my wrist with this today and was initially a bit put off by the top note. But 2 hours later the aroma developed into a nice vanilla chocolatey fragrance - literally felt like i had white chocolate rubbed on my skin. Couldn't stop sniffing my wrist for a good amount of time during the day (in private obviously LOL).
Not concerned with the "vulgar" aspect. I do however, find these types of names juvenile that just lack imagination and deeper thought. It takes away from the actual brilliance of the art of fragrance.
Hello there gentlemen, I was wondering if you guys can let me know where you buy your colognes, I usually go out to buy and don’t shop online and would like some reliable recommendations.
As someone that loves pharmacology and the science behind chemical formulations I love this content. I always learn so much and the voice is intoxicating. A+++. However I did not like this scent. Lol
Hey Aaron, I have been trying to buy some of your fragrances, but they are literally sold out the moment you stock up. It's literally impossible to get a hold on your products.
Putting "sex" and "fucking" in their fragrance names is really bad. I cannot believe this is where the Tom Ford line has gone. No risk if classing up the joint here.
I really did not like Vanilla Sex very much, I felt it leaned animalic and nutty, heavy, reminds me of urine, and it turns my stomach a little. I agree it does remind me of something of Dior's. My mom however, she liked it a lot. "The most natural and deep vanilla I've ever smelled" she said. My dad thinks it's "meh". As a work of art, this fragrance was a beautiful experience, but I can't wear it, personally :P
I think the name fits very well with the scent. I think some people find it boring while others may admit that the simplicity of the vanilla and almond satisfy despite its bad reputation.
The next Tom Ford fragrance is called "Kinky Winky"
😂😂😂
Stinky Chocolate is the next hit
@@valzalel5203 lol or Stinky Winky
Chocolate rim job
🤣🤣🤣
The next Tom Ford release will be "Chocolate Starfish"
😂❤😂❤😂❤😂
Sweaty Betty
and the hot dog flavoured water 🤘
A chocolate and anise flavored scent
A luxurious blend of cocoa, sea notes and oud.
This one has costwaytoomuchalone whipping through the base.
😂
😂
LMAOOOOO
Camera quality is really great. Keep this videographer and camera setup.
300 pounds for 50 ml, for just “fine” sent 😂
Estee Lauder is absolutely running the brand name into the ground unfortunately all for the sake of greed 💰
@@pappym.8421 I wouldn't say Tom Ford was ever not about greed. Oud wood may smell great to women but it's never been worth even half it's price

Absolute Aphrodisiac is amazing! The original Vanilla Fatale is amazing too

1. Batch your materials together in groups that just blend well together.
2. Just learn the various groups that then combine.
3. Add enhancer the fit with the blended groups
Mind blown😊
Looking forward to a vannilla fragrance from you Aaron,can imagine it will be seriously addictive and long lasting ❤
You have become my favorite fragrance reviewer!
Aaron is glorious!
Every time I see you talking about perfumary, I can feel your passion from this side of the screen! You remind me why I love perfumes so much!❤
Your latest videos have a really nice and soft look to them! It makes your reviews even more relaxing.
I cant wait for your new fragrances. Thank you Aaron. I would love one of these for Raw Cherry Extreme and Oud.
Thought the name was perfect for the fragrance. Vanilla Sex leaves you wanting more. It’s still sex. And of course I’ll take it, but I want something more. Something fun. Perfect analogy for the fragrance in my opinion.
That's it, Aaron! If anyone can create that red breathless scent you speak of, it's you!

absolutely agree with you aaron, perfumery is about passion!!

Enough
Of
Your videos
I need more!!!!!!
Aaron -‘I don’t review packaging i review fragrances’ : Aaron - ‘i’ll knock some points off as i really hate the name, but ‘slut’ is ok because I think it’s funny’. 😅
Just goes to show how bad the name is haha.
@@nelsonstewart5999not sure how Vanilla Sex is worse than Slut ?!?
fell in love with the smell at first sniff but I do find it to be more attractive on ladies, the price is indeed very high but if you got the many to spare, it's one of the most delicious vanilla fragrance out there!
$300/50ml is what Oud Wood costs at retail.
This better be the best safe and formulaic vanilla frag I've ever smelled.
Ever since Tom Ford has been acquired, they've relaunched their fragrances at a higher price. Aaron, can you do a comparison between the older Vanille Fatale and the new release?
Just waiting for the Oud Wood Parfum
And elixir
yeah..Ethylene Brassylete - fluffy musk with vanilla tone to it. Great breakdown of the fragrance, as always Aaron.
A long time ago I use to make extracts for a large food company . Back then real vanilla extract went for $20,000.00 CDN for a 20 gallon drum . And yes it was very dark and thick . The artificial Vanilla extract had more water as well as coumarin and vanillin in it and less alcohol .
Ok???
@@professionalpookie He was mentioning the price of Real Vanilla , my comment was affirming the high price of the product back in the day . OK enough for ya ???
@@michaelkennedy4444 no one cares bro

Please Maison Alhambra, drop your authentic replica for this one. “Vanilla Habibti”

If you think this is expensive, oud wood parfum is almost 500 dollars for 50ml
is it even worth it?
The parfum smells the same as the EDP to me.
@@buddhist1983For oud wood? Most certainly not. I have smelled a few fragrances that i would drop 500 on without even second guessing, though, But definitely nothing from TF
This is the review I’ve been waiting for.
I think the price tag is hefty and a bit much for 50ml. I tried it when it first launched and I wasn’t pleased.
Aaron thank you very much for a great review as always 🙏
Could you review Nishane: Afrika-Olifant
It is an amazing fragrance (my favourite) and I want to hear your thoughts and the assessment of the ingredients
Hard Candy is the best fragrance name ever.
You're so fun! When I smelled it, I thought it was the worst fragrance I'd ever smelled!
Please try Mercedes Benz club black and amazing vanilla and woody fragrance $45 as well
Interesting I’ll do research thanks for the recommendation
So what was the score? 8/10? -1 for price, -1 for name ?
I love it. Pricey indeed, so ill likely get the decanter next. But I like to mix this with Tabacco Vanile. The dry down is soooo good. But the two together blend very well.
Awesome review as always!! ❤Please, please, please review Tom Ford Soleil Neige as well, it's what I'm completely addicted to at the moment!!
Ya! I’m with you on that addiction! Can’t get enough. And not spoken about enough either. A hidden delight. 😉
I'm wearning this now (from a sample 2ml bottle). It's lovely, but very, very expensive. The bottle quality doesn't match the brand rep or quality of the smell at all. Why brand as luxury when the bottle (beside looks) is anything but?
Aaron, could you discuss your thoughts on clones? If a company decided to clone your fragrance what would you think?
for 300 quid I would expect a lot more. It is quite a middle of the road frag saldy where classics like tobacco vanille are far more interesting
Tobacco Vanille,my tom ford fav,hope its never discontinued
I like vanilla sex
The name
The … movement
Not so much the perfume
Smells just like vanilla/almond extract - I kind of like how it’s not regular sweet vanilla cake… but it just smells like the extract for me - a bit too basic for the price - I like basic too, but not for that price - bottle is pretty
Hi Aaron,
We need your review of the latest Oud Wood Parfum!😊
All the best❤
How about 'Rent Boy' next...has a nice 'ring' to it.

Missing old Tom Ford days.
I think that this is the best review of some fragrance in the history of internet
This was okay. Not the worst Tom Ford. 6/10
Aaron, it’s time for the RCE review.
Hi Aaron ❤ almond, Tonka are appealing to me but the price is not matching the fragrance imho 😮
300 pounds for 50ml and you get a plastic cap??? Cmon man some latafa perfumes have better packaging than tom ford...
Facts!!!!
I love Vanilla Sex. I got it as a gift and it lasted on me until the next day. They should have called it Vanilla Dream. I wear it to work and get tons of compliments. The perfumer is from Givaudan from what I heard. The name doesn’t bother me so much 😂🤷🏼♀️
With summer coming, I'd love to see you do a review of Stephane Humbert Lucas' God of Fire.
What I would love most is if Tom Ford were to ask Aaron to create a unique classic Tom Ford signature fragrance with an ATH touch. I would blind buy litres of that.
At this point i wouldn't be shocked to hear that the next Tom Ford release is something like Tonka Honkers. 😭

Aaron bring back your matte black bottles with upgraded pressurized atomizers and an elixir version of Daddy please.
Vanilla Sex should be Nutty Sex. All you get is bitter almond. Such a disappointment. Lauder continues to ruin the brand. His best vanillas are Vanilla Fatale(the original) and Metallique

Like this comment if ethyl maltol whipping through the base is the best part of any ATH vid (because you all know it is)
F*cking fabulous is the only acceptable profanity for a perfume name
Not concerned with the "vulgar" aspect. I do however, find these types of names juvenile that just lack imagination and deeper thought. It takes away from the actual brilliance of the art of fragrance.
Tom ford actually got me into loving and collecting fragrances but unfortunately their recent releases I've found totally uninspiring and boring
Very nice reviews by the Master perfumer 🙏
To me it's similar to hypnotic poison edp which i love.this one is crazy expensive and overrated...
Hello there gentlemen,
I was wondering if you guys can let me know where you buy your colognes, I usually go out to buy and don’t shop online and would like some reliable recommendations.
Try oud maracuja please!
You spent more time talking about the name and how you don't like it
Ath you a going to make filthy vanilla for his line
Erotic Vanilla would’ve been a better name imo
As someone that loves pharmacology and the science behind chemical formulations I love this content. I always learn so much and the voice is intoxicating. A+++. However I did not like this scent. Lol
Aaron I don’t think you gave it a grade or did I miss that 😂😂😂
Thank you Aaron.
can we get a review on Parfums de Marley Perseus
Hey Aaron, I have been trying to buy some of your fragrances, but they are literally sold out the moment you stock up. It's literally impossible to get a hold on your products.
Vanilla sex “nice I suppose “ I love it 🤣🤣 I agree with you Aaron very bland . Pushing limits is fun 😂
Now every time I spray my perfumes I say mentally: "ethylmaltol whipping through the base" 😅😅
that's me omg 🤣🤣
I would love to see your opinion on Hugo Boss Number One
When are u getting hard candy back in stock ??
Love this guy!!!
Wearing Oxytocin rn. It's so good, making my evening right now ...
Hi , could i ask you when did you buy it ? Because i Heard it is discontinued since Last year
@@abdelkader8556 I bought a sample some time ago and yes it seems to be discontinued unfortunately
Great review!
This one is a scrubber washed it off right away.
I thought exactly the same when I saw that name. 😂
Putting "sex" and "fucking" in their fragrance names is really bad. I cannot believe this is where the Tom Ford line has gone. No risk if classing up the joint here.
Like the name says: Boring and not worth the hype and money
I really did not like Vanilla Sex very much, I felt it leaned animalic and nutty, heavy, reminds me of urine, and it turns my stomach a little. I agree it does remind me of something of Dior's. My mom however, she liked it a lot. "The most natural and deep vanilla I've ever smelled" she said. My dad thinks it's "meh". As a work of art, this fragrance was a beautiful experience, but I can't wear it, personally :P
Wait, but does he like the name? I couldn't tell lol.
300 pound for 50ml and still a plastic Cap? This foolery should end soon
the name is attention grabbing and marketing. I think without that name the fragrance wouldn't be talked about that much as right now
Am I the only one that doesnt like these vulgar names for perfume? Let the perfume do the talking not the name!
it's a bit of fun, you prude
It's only you. 🤷♂️
I think the name fits very well with the scent. I think some people find it boring while others may admit that the simplicity of the vanilla and almond satisfy despite its bad reputation.
"Vanilla sex" is not even something vulgar
I agree, some names are creative, but these are just not it imo
Yo im fast af
Ani from Nishane if you are looking for a vanilla
Thank you❤
Designers better step up their game.
Devotion is better than this
You didn't even give this a rating😂😂
So tired of "elite" names producing mid or less product and charging elite tier prices!!
Please relaunch Maverick.
Time to take a left turn. Next release is Kiwi Eunich.
can u review Meander by Amouage: thanks
I spilled a tiny decant in my car and it quickly became nauseating. Very “buttery” iris. Wouldn’t recommend to buy but nice to try for a few days.
Are you part hispanic Mr Hughes?
