This gonna sound cheesy af but, it's nice seeing someone smile the first wearing. When you've been in this hobby for a bit, those moments when you sniff a new fragrance that hits right is a HUGE relief and yet, invigorating simultaneously.
I got samples of Apple Brandy, Angle Share, and L'Heure Verte. I was surprised that I enjoyed L'Heure Verte the most given the notes. Thank you for your detailed review.
This fragrance has been a favorite for me. I'm on my 4th bottle. I absolutely love the complexity of the scent and it last forever. I went to Kilian's website to see my reviews and noticed it's not there. I hope it's not retired. I also layer it with a Tiziana fragrance I wear, listen the combo never disappoints. Nor wearing it by itself. Let's talk about the sillage and olfactory.
Sounds really interesting. I think I'll have a pop at this one. Excellent series, Justin. Anyone can big up a scent in the space of a home video, so these are of greater value for sure!
gave my cousin a sample of this, got a whiff of it(the whole garage smelled like the fragrance and it was just lingering in the air), and regretted giving it to him haha😹i ended up getting myself a full bottle the week after because i liked it that much👌
Yes, I like this series and style a lot. Much better than first impressions only but we still get your first impression. Very helpful to have these three impressions at different stages. Plus this is a pretty original take on a frag review, at least from what I see.
Haven't tried any of the Kilian's yet. I've gone from zero scents at the end of June to now having 14 plus a couple mini's from Mont Blanc and several testers. Picked up Dior Sauvage Elixir and Creed Aventus recently. And I'm waiting on shipments from Fragbuy/Fragnet right now, lol. Think I need to cool it on the acquisitions for a bit, or I need to take up reviewing stuff like you Justin, lol.
I have just got this for my 30th birthday, I am wearing it as I write this comment and I love this fragrance it is very unique and I’m getting more of a minty vibe come through on my skin which I absolutely love. Really good stuff and great video too thank you for posting.
The Kilian sales person at my local Bloomingdales contacted me, to make me aware that he’ll be getting these Tuesday next week. They both sound really nice. JC, these types of videos are a great idea ✊🏽
I am loving the new series. Fresh Squad is keeping it fresh with these fragrances. You are still looking fresh hours after your gigs. Love your content, your honesty and the class with which you deliver your videos. Keep the fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the new Real world review as you call it. It allows you to completely analyze the fragrance from the beginning to end so to speak. Great job!!👊🏽👊🏽
This is interesting. I love Apple Brandy, even though many people think it is very masculine leaning. I do tend to like things more in the unisex to what I might call light masculine side, so I was curious about this one. Haven’t decided if I want to try AB on the rocks because I like the original so much. I also love the idea of a licorice scent as I do not have many fragrances with that note. Thanks for another useful review.
I think this initial review is a good style. Can wait to smell these. I haven't even smelled Angel's Share or Roses on Ice yet but decants of all 4 are on the way
Gorgeous bottle there. Jeremy can take a few notes. I wore Date yesterday for the first time. Had a decant for months. It gave me Jean Paul vibes. All I thought about was that lackluster bottle tho.
Love this series, especially cause I’m slowly beginning to shy away from designer and slowly, and I mean very slowly for the sake of my wallet, trying to get into niche and indie.
Great video brother and I definitely like the new concept that you are doing with your videos. I would have to say apple brandy on the rocks sounds a little better to me.
I'm really looking forward to this review. I would have originally thought that Apple Brandy on the rocks would have been the more up my alley of the two but based on your impressions it seems more woody and a little less heavy in the components I was hoping for. Waiting to see if it will be a double pass or if I just picked the wrong horse in a two horse race lol at any rate there is always Angels Share which is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
After seeing the vid, I might give this a try. I have a Lolita Lempicka fragrance with a licorice or anise note that I enjoy. Thanks Bro 💪🏾 Love the "Real World" format as well 👌🏾
Can you Review "Baccarat Rouge 540" ?? Man I want to take the Leap! but its in the 300++ Range. TY so much Justin! The way You Review a Cologne, you really do speak to the Mases! all to often many of the reviewers get caught up in specific Lingo,,, Great Jobb!
eau masculine by lolita lempicka (the black bottle) was a 90 percent original. it is discontinued unfortunately. i am glad for by kilian to copy my all time favorite scent. have to buy back-up-bottles for that, cause very little amount of people are fans of licorice, fennel, anis. air by kenzo should be copied next. a shame the uncreative companies suck up the great small perfume-creators. RIP Lolita Lempicka, Thierry Mugler, Byredo.
Great Review , gotta give it a try. Just received decants of cruel intentions and black phantom. First time getting my nose on kilian frags. Love both , cruel intentions smells amazing but my wife wears it Better. Black Phantom is Ooowee fire. Boy I’m saving up for that bottle.
@@stayfreshproductions Beautiful scent , despite the name I don’t find it cruel. Its smooth, inviting and provocative. Leans a bit fem on my skin. But like many fragrances -during the right occasions it’s going to get some play. I think you’ll dig.
G'Day Justin! Are you able to compare L'Heure Verte to Fortis by Liquides Imaginaires (which in turn is similar to Black Afgano by Nasomatto)? I own Fortis, and while there is no note of licorice, it certainly comes across with that vibe, at least on my skin anyway. Keep up the great work, and thank you for keeping it real.
@@stayfreshproductions if you like licorice, you should check mancera aoud black candy it’s a oud and licorice scent with a mint opening. It’s a great scent with a bunch of attitude
@@connord7701 in most occasions, that’s right! But the hope is always that the “right” people I come across will be able to appreciate my fragrance; it doesn’t have to be everyone. 😊
@@stayfreshproductions LOL. It's the second time it didn't land. I was hoping to break through that Justin bubble and reach the child within. He's quick to get annoyed. It's not attack humor; it's humor to get you to look at yourself and ask questions about the "why" behind your response.
This gonna sound cheesy af but, it's nice seeing someone smile the first wearing. When you've been in this hobby for a bit, those moments when you sniff a new fragrance that hits right is a HUGE relief and yet, invigorating simultaneously.
Not cheesy at all! :)
Truth.
That’s just a nice thing to say, please say more nice things like that without fear
Keep doing the real world review. It’s a very smart idea.
TOTALLY
Thank you Jay!
The ITRW series is the best that I have seen in the fragrance community. thank you for your efforts.
Thank you Salar. :)

Kilian will replace L'Heure Verte with Fiévre Verte
Sounds really interesting. I think I'll have a pop at this one. Excellent series, Justin. Anyone can big up a scent in the space of a home video, so these are of greater value for sure!
I hope you dig it! Thank you Mare!
I completely enjoyed this review. It's a true perspective and I appreciate that. Glad to be a squad member
Thank you!!
I just got a sample of this yesterday and I am absolutely in love!!!! 💚 Need a full bottle for sure
It's so good!!!

I just ordered this blind and can't wait to try it. I'd love to see a review of nasomatto absinth.
Great format. Excellent info Justin.
Appreciate it! Thanks Michael.
smelled this today and went back 30 min later to buy it- I was that compelled !
Thanks for the review-
My pleasure! I'm glad you enjoy it!
i blind bought both and totally love lheure verte apple brandy not so much but compliments ive gotten on both
What matters the most is this: do you like them?

Very nice description. Makes me almost smell the scent!
Definitely will get one, love licorice, wish it would lasted more, but all the notes resonate with me, Thanks for the review JC!!!
Thank you Carlos!
Instead of "Happy Hour", absinthe makes it "Green Hour".
Yes testing in the real world and reporting right afterwards, this is really great, Justin! First impressions of real full wears, great series!
Thank you Raul!!

I hope you dig them! Thanks bro.
Very Nice Justin! Hope you and Corbin do one of your guessing the Fragrance Reviews! I really Really like them Bottles! There very nice!
Thank you Terry! I hope we'll do another one soon.

Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed night
Thank you Michael!!
Love this series Justin, keep em coming
Justin, thanks for a real world application review. Very helpful. Would like to see this on other fragrances, as well.
Thank you for watching! More to come.
Digging the concept for this series!
Thanks Corey!
I absolutely love this scent. Reminds me of Xerjoff Naxos but a bit greener and fresher...
So good!
Definitely want to get this in my collection!
No. Sir my wife looked at me crazy and ask is that wd 40 I’m wearing 😞

Extremly underrated scent. My most complimented scent I've worn. Very surprising, I know....
I think this initial review is a good style. Can wait to smell these. I haven't even smelled Angel's Share or Roses on Ice yet but decants of all 4 are on the way
Thank you Bradley!! Enjoy them!
We need a top ten wedding fragrances for going to a wedding or to get married in
Nice topic
Yes! Love this new series!
Thank you Baue!
Awesome review. Great concept👍🏽😎
I know the perfect person for an Absinthe fragrance! I'll foward the video!
Thanks for sharing!!
That was a super helpful review. I am a fan of licorice notes so I’ll probably give this a try.
Thank you Emily! I hope you enjoy it if you try it.
Gorgeous bottle there. Jeremy can take a few notes. I wore Date yesterday for the first time. Had a decant for months. It gave me Jean Paul vibes. All I thought about was that lackluster bottle tho.
Great review Doctor
I am really intrigued by this fragrance. I will definitely need to try it. Thanks for the review ❤️
Thanks for watching, Raquel! I hope you can try it.
Thanks for the wonderful review.I am definitely intrigued.
Thank you Patricia!
Interesting series. Too bad most ppl are wearing masks but still would like for you to keep this series going.
Love this series, especially cause I’m slowly beginning to shy away from designer and slowly, and I mean very slowly for the sake of my wallet, trying to get into niche and indie.
Thank you Angelo!
Just bought my bottle and a 3.4 oz refill😄
Definitely want to try it and willing to get a decant of it and enjoy it :)
Nice one!
Would also be cool to see how any one frag behaves on you versus Grace throughout a day/evening. :D
We'll have to do that!
I love the name of this fragrance. Its so fly 🔥
Yessirrrr
I think this one is in the same category as mugler aura. Except this one is smoother and more refined.
Great video brother and I definitely like the new concept that you are doing with your videos. I would have to say apple brandy on the rocks sounds a little better to me.
Thank you brother! Btw I got your package and I'm testing them. :)
@@stayfreshproductions nice and good to hear

Amazon’a review Justin. Keep going to keep us staying fresh 👋🏽🙌🏾
Thank you Adem!
Best name will be fresh live which will go with the fresh squad you normally use
Another awesome video
Thank you Devante!
I tried this last night for the first time wow its incredible so masculine
Can you Review "Baccarat Rouge 540" ?? Man I want to take the Leap! but its in the 300++ Range. TY so much Justin! The way You Review a Cologne, you really do speak to the Mases! all to often many of the reviewers get caught up in specific Lingo,,, Great Jobb!
Thank you Tate! BR540 is not one of my favorites...I think it's very pleasant, but it's not remarkable to me. But I recommend sampling it if you can!
@@stayfreshproductions TY bro!
Hearing the scent profile sounds like it may smell similar to the Lolita Lempicka line for men
I got that one coming in any day now 👌🏾
My exact reaction when i smelled l’heure verte was “woooow” too lol i wouldnt wear it but its so unique reminds me of a painting
I love it!
Really loving the new way of reviewing these. Which of these 2 fragrances do you enjoy more?
Thank you Melissa! Hard to choose...it depends on the day!

Great Review , gotta give it a try.
Just received decants of cruel intentions and black phantom. First time getting my nose on kilian frags. Love both , cruel intentions smells amazing but my wife wears it Better. Black Phantom is Ooowee fire. Boy I’m saving up for that bottle.
Thank you!! I still need to try Cruel Intentions. Black Phantom is great.
@@stayfreshproductions Beautiful scent , despite the name I don’t find it cruel. Its smooth, inviting and provocative. Leans a bit fem on my skin. But like many fragrances -during the right occasions it’s going to get some play. I think you’ll dig.

I haven't smelled that one yet! I'll need to try it. Thanks Paul!
Dope video! 🙌🔥
Thank you J!
this sounds similar to amouage memoir man , which is good because I love that scent, I need to try this
Yeah there is a slight similarity! I think the licorice is what sets this one apart though.
@@stayfreshproductions if you like licorice, you should check mancera aoud black candy it’s a oud and licorice scent with a mint opening. It’s a great scent with a bunch of attitude
@@8KoG8 I’ll have to check it out!
i love this series :)
Thank you Hakim!
Great one
angels share vibe with a herbal touch, it's nice...not so much for everyday use in my view, it's one of these scents that can borew you if overused
Love the format of the newest reviews. Which one is your favourite of the two, guessing Apple Brandy?
Thank you Connor!
Honestly it's hard to choose at the moment...I'm actually leaning towards L'Heure Verte at the moment, for it's unique impact.
@@stayfreshproductions I respect that. When you have so many frags you respect uniqueness over likability right? New creations.
@@connord7701 in most occasions, that’s right! But the hope is always that the “right” people I come across will be able to appreciate my fragrance; it doesn’t have to be everyone. 😊
@@stayfreshproductions 100%, only surround yourself with the right people! 😊
I'm not a fan of licorice but I do want to try something different.
It's very different. You'll like it or hate it. lol
L'heure verte means "happy hour" in French.
Thanks
Thank you Clifton!
Love the content bro which one is your favorite of this particular line?
Thank you bro...it's hard to choose. I only own the two new ones, and I like them both for different reasons.
@@stayfreshproductions gotcha
Oh wow! I didn't catch the video where you wore it in the Fake World. I hope there's still time to get a turquoise outline as well.
I’m curious…how is your career as a comedian going? Are you doing your best? Because that didn’t quite land.
@@stayfreshproductions 😂😂 bake his ass Justin
@@stayfreshproductions LOL. It's the second time it didn't land. I was hoping to break through that Justin bubble and reach the child within. He's quick to get annoyed. It's not attack humor; it's humor to get you to look at yourself and ask questions about the "why" behind your response.
@@e.b.6230 I only reciprocated your energy.
I'm missing the hook intros though.
They will return!
Did you really call all those notes or did you look at the note breakdown before hand?
The first time I saw the notes was when I was reading them off with them on screen!
🌹
🤝
Are you not going to cover more black owned businesses?
I’ve talked about Chris Collins and The Elemental Fragrances pretty recently.
Great review! 😊 Do you find it unisex? Would you like to smell it on your girlfriend?
Yeah I think so!
Great review!
Thank you!
