My favorite uses of ambroxan are in Guerlain Ideal Cool / Percival / Luna Rosa Carbon - at least where it's a bit more of a standout note. I don't enjoy it as much when it's as dominant as it is in Sauvage although it's still ok.
Very instruvtive review. Could you do the following ones?: 1) what does Patchouli smell like? 2) what does Musc smell like? 3) what does Sandalwood smell like? 4) what does Vetiver smell like? 5) what does Amber smell like? 6) what do Aldehydes smell like? Thank you
I dont mind ambroxan if it's used as a fixing/carrying agent, if used tastefully it can really boost longevity and projection of a scent ie. Frederic Malle Promise 👍 I think ambroxan had gotten a bad wrap partially because of Sauvage, but I think many people are confused as to what ambroxan actually smells like because to me the ambroxan in sauvage wasn't the issue, the issue was the extremely sharp bergamot/pepper and metallic edge sauvage has. Thanks for the video I'm sure it will help many people.
I bought some pure Ambroxan from the high end supplier Givaudan. Amazing. Smells like I remember the real deal as, I put in Perfumers alcohol at 3%. Is so magical! Smells like the color Sky Blue! I ordered Iso e super and Velvet Cashmere both from IFF...
Ambroxan has mesmerized and captivated me ever since I first discovered it's scent. I can't use anything else but ambroxan based fragrances.. I am addicted!
Baraonda is my new obsession. Can't wait to wear it more this fall. I'm not usually into boozy type of fragrances, but this one is so classy and addictive. I personally find the strength to be perfect.
Great content! Love Ambroxan as a note!Another 13 is absolutely my favorite from Le Labo. I get a lot of mint or peppermint (don’t know why lol) but I can’t spray more than two sprays, or else it gets overwhelming and almost harsh. Also love the ambroxan in BR540 💕 will absolutely try the others on your list!
I absolutely love your videos! You are so thorough in the descriptions of the fragrances and you have a way of bringing the fragrances to life. I am always amazed at your ability to pick up so many notes, incredible! 👍👍
Ambroxan tends to give me a headache and for some reason I cannot smell it on BR540. I can smell it oh Hacivat and Creed Viking. Thanks for creating this list as I know which fragrances to avoid!
Very interesting video. I shy away from fragrances with ambroxan, it usually comes off on me as very synthetic woods, and as you mentioned sometimes a little aquatic. IsoE Super is another one I'm not a fan of.
This is soooooo helpful! I want to get into fragrance but I lost my sense of smell two years go so I have no clue what nothing smells like. This gives me a clue of where to go!
Thank you sir. Such good quality videos and fragrances you feature. I love that you include fragrances leaning feminine in your videos. There’s only very few male fragrance reviewer that do that. Keep up the excellent work! 👍👍
Yes I’m obsessed! Thank you for this. I feel in love with “not a perfume” in 2015 been a fan since!! Will definitely be looking into these you provided, thank you!
Great idea for video. Yesterday, I bought MFK Baccarat Rouge 540 edp. What has drawn me to it was ambergris(I also think it is ambroxan). I also think there is abroxan in Creed Aventus, not so much ambergris. I might be wrong.
What a great list! I do love this note, but only when it’s not over done. Your list definitely added a few others to my list that I want to try. The only one I was surprised you didn’t include was JPG Le Male Popeye Eau Fraiche, but I can also kind of understand why. There’s a lot of other things going on there but I think it’s a good example of Ambroxan that is balanced within the composition.
Translated, that means “by my side, Hermann seemed to me like a shadow,” a line from a poem by Victor Hugo; 'Hermann à mes côtés me paraissait une ombre.
The opening of Outrageous is great, very unique , elegant and happy smell. But to my nose, the dry down is disappointing, as the smell changes into some type of laundry detergent scent.
Another excellent video! Your description of Costume National I sounds like how I would describe Penhaligon's Terrible Teddy. Are they that close? I love Terrible Teddy but it fades quickly on me. I wonder if CNI would be a better performer?
Well, I use to be a strong abvocate of natural smelling woody, green, soily and leathery fragrances, but ambroxane seems to be kind of a week ess of me. ;-) The only artificial note that manages to hypnotize me, especially in combination with patchouly and peppers. So Sauvage is just a magical potion to me.
I recently got a decant of Montale's So Amber. It features a prominent rose note combined with ambroxan, so it's a salty rose, which is a great combination. It claims to feature ambergris, but I'm pretty sure it's actually ambroxan. Montale's Aoud Forest (very misleading name) does the same thing, but also throws in citruses and aquatic notes. So yeah, I love ambroxan and it's great combined with roses! I'll just get a nice rose fragrance and combine it with my Molecule 02.
I have always been drawn to scents with ambroxan in them. It gives that earthy punch that I crave. Terrible Teddy makes me feel really heavy with ambroxide. I have to be in a very specific dapper mood to wear that one. Cheers!
Interesting. I don't like Ambroxin at all, which is probably why I don't have any of these fragrances. It seems like it's the signature ingredient in what some people refer to as mall fragrances. Anyway, everybody's different. Thanks Sebastián.
Another great vid and happy to see Hermann on there! Do you notice any difference between the Ambroxan in Molecule 02 and the Cetalox in Not A Perfume? I'm wondering if I should bother sampling both.
Ambroxan is intriguing because I love it at the start and then I become anosmic to it! I love all your suggestions and would love to try most of them to see how this note spins out. Not a Perfume was a love that went silent!
I was just looking at the ambroxan vid 4 hours ago I have molecule 02(what’s the best note to layer with) Escentric 02 I don’t know what(trying to train my nose to the animatic) Juliette Not a Perfume Another 13(what’s best note that I layer this one with) Okay you just said, citrus was and ambers... I want some specific frag choices! Give me some names Sebastian😂
The last week I tried BR 540 for the first time, I know I am late...I like it the first hours but at night, even after a shower it made me sick in my stomach. It smells like iodine on my skin. Is that Ambroxan?
I wonder if it is why I loathe the majority of Department Store fragrances? I know most of them give me a headache or make me feel sick. I'm quite new to fragrances so need to learn how to spot it. I think I can spot Iso E Super which I also dislike and can spot in things like Terre D'Hermes
Molecule 2 is strange... The first time I ever smelled it, it smelled like nail polish or paint thinner. Now, I can't smell it at all. Not sure what is going on.
Thanks for the video! Wonder how many sprays of Ambroxan should I do with YSL La Nuit De L'Homme? would 2 or 3 Ambroxan and 4-5 YSL be good? Thanks in advance.
That is my favorite note I love Another13 and Teddy I was looking forward to see the video , now I want to try all of the other in your video ,! men this is going to cost me !😬
I really struggle to distinguish ISO E Super and Ambroxan. I LOVE fragrances with them in it. For eg: I can tell that D&G Light Blue women, Black XS, Goldfield and Banks Wood Infusion contain one of the molecules. But I can't tell which one! Does anyone know?
I love Juliette has a gun not a perfume, and want to try superdose. But I've read a looot of people say it isn't the same (but intense), do you find it too different?
You can hardly smell anything in the original far in the super goes it’s intense you can smell a lot and I think that’s what people are referring to 😄!
@@ThePerfumeGuy I hope so! for me this fragrance is better than molecule 2, I'm definitely ordering a sample to test 1st. I think Glossier was trying to imitate this one, even in the marketing, you should try it if not, it's called You.
@@ThePerfumeGuy I have it but doesn't last long on the body (but it does on your cloths)..just like juliette's! It's similar but, glossier is more femenine and not so minimalistict. But definitely "inspired" but juliette's. Great channel btw, love from Peru!
All day Sebastian! I have always loved perfume. My mom’s Shalimar...back in the 60’s when it was PURE DELIGHT(probably why I lean towards Tonka...Vanilla today I was about 8yrs old and I would put on her ShalimarI thought...but she knew) I didn’t put the top on good...my mom’s under garments and dresser smelled Of Shalimar, for the life of that dresser drawer🙈🙈🙈😂
@@ThePerfumeGuy I love how that is your staple appearance. Every picture I see you have a hat on so that's your signature. YOur taste in colognes is great and informed as well. You and others turned me onto Creation E
Ambroxan should be f ing banned in perfumery, lol. It's such a harsh, chemical-smelly mess of a substance. It should only be used in tiny amounts to help other compounds out because when used like Sauvage it's almost asthma-inducing and I don't have asthma. Ambroxan has ruined otherwise great fragrances like Greenley from Parfums de Marly. Some light musk and some Iso E/rosewood base and it would have been so beautiful. Now it is un-wearable to me. Can't wait for this fad to die.
I always thought it smelled like a manufacturing plant chemical waste land for a long time but I’m obsessed with the smell now. I figured as it happens with everything, most scents, most notes that I’m not used to notes I don’t like then it grows on you and it might happen to you too but either way they’re not getting rid of Ambroxan it’s here to stay because it’s used as an alternative to ambergris, which is very very expensive.
@@ThePerfumeGuy It probably burnt a whole in your brain! Hehe I don't mind f it stays, I just want perfumery to go back to a more modest and reasonable use of it.

Your collection is mind boggling Sebastian! If I want to learn about brands that I’ve never heard of before, I know which channel to tune in to.
Knowledge is power and thank you for sharing it. My hat goes off to you.
I have many of these perfumes and today I realize I’m a huge Ambroxan fan!

Le Labo's Another 13 is my absolute favorite fragrance! Great information on Ambroxan and your take on the listed fragrances.
Ambroxan is so animalic and addictive. I especially love it in winter scents.
I bought some pure Ambroxan from the high end supplier Givaudan. Amazing. Smells like I remember the real deal as, I put in Perfumers alcohol at 3%. Is so magical! Smells like the color Sky Blue! I ordered Iso e super and Velvet Cashmere both from IFF...
Ambroxan has mesmerized and captivated me ever since I first discovered it's scent. I can't use anything else but ambroxan based fragrances.. I am addicted!
The molecule is tatooed in my neck since 2009 when I strated my studies in formulation
That's awesome
Baraonda is my new obsession. Can't wait to wear it more this fall. I'm not usually into boozy type of fragrances, but this one is so classy and addictive. I personally find the strength to be perfect.
Learning a lot about fragrances every time. Thank you so much.

Glossier You belongs in this video. Loveeeee ambroxan, once I found it I have never gone back to heady heavily projected notes
YES!!! 💯 agreed! It's very white-ambery too. Just wonderful 😍
You’re right.. I’m on my second bottle wish it came bigger

One note that gives me splitting headaches...cannot stand Ambroxan. I had a massive migraine after sampling Le labor’s another 13.
1a1
me too.
Same here.
Love love love your work
After lots of trial and error, I think I have a sensitivity to ambroxan - it gives me horrendous nausea-headaches. :(

I don't really know how ambroxan itself smells like. But whenever I smell a fragrance that smells similar to Sauvage, I'd assume it's the ambroxan.
Another great vid and happy to see Hermann on there! Do you notice any difference between the Ambroxan in Molecule 02 and the Cetalox in Not A Perfume? I'm wondering if I should bother sampling both.
Cetalox in original Not A Perfume is definitely softer but superdose I feel is full on Ambroxan!!

Ambroxan is intriguing because I love it at the start and then I become anosmic to it! I love all your suggestions and would love to try most of them to see how this note spins out. Not a Perfume was a love that went silent!

I was just looking at the ambroxan vid 4 hours ago
I have molecule 02(what’s the best note to layer with)
Escentric 02
I don’t know what(trying to train my nose to the animatic)
Juliette Not a Perfume
Another 13(what’s best note that I layer this one with)
Okay you just said, citrus was and ambers...
I want some specific frag choices! Give me some names Sebastian😂
I would look at citrus fragrance that already feature Ambroxan and then I would add to it. So spray the M02 first then the citrus on top.
Tfs you are a wealth of information
The last week I tried BR 540 for the first time, I know I am late...I like it the first hours but at night, even after a shower it made me sick in my stomach. It smells like iodine on my skin. Is that Ambroxan?
Hello,
Have Le Labo Another 13.
What notes in something else would you layer with. Suggestion, please.
Do you know Miu Miu Eau de parfum? What do you think?. Your opinion interests me very much. Thank you very much.
I don't remember how Miu Miu EDP smells like I sadly have not smelled it.

Love ambroxan and wish i could try Jacques fath velour boise
How come u didn’t talk about kosmala no 4 ??
Hi Sebastian, just a quick question, would you layer Ambroxan with TT Orion.
If I am anosmic to ambroxan (which I think I may be), will I be able to enjoy any of these fragrances?
??
I see a similarity between escentric 04 and baccarat rouge,I own 04 but 540 is way too expensive
I don't get the comparison of Percival with Sauvage, but it does smell like Mont Blanc Legend
Make a video about ISO E Super fragrances please 🤍
Hopefully soon yes! :)
I would be interested in an ambroxan centric fragrance that has a really sharp acidic bight, does such a fragrance exist, Sebastian?
How and where to get ambroxan
.??any information sir
I would love to know what made the original worth perfume so gorgeous. I used to take my mom's. I don't know if this ingredient was in it
