My husband had the leather one, but he soon got tired of it because he said the perfume was too strong and “salty” on him. So i started using it on myself and... surprisingly on a feminine skin it has all another smell, i can smell the rose first then the citrus fruits and the woods. Only in the end the leather comes out, but in a discrete way which doesn’t actually dominates all the other components. Love it!
I love ADP scents and I have many on this list, but I just sold my 150ml Cedro di Taormina because the performance was awful on my skin, which was a shame because it's beautiful scent. I am surprised you didn't include Colonia Quercia. That's a beautiful scent and has monstrous longevity. Oud is beautiful too!
Update - Cedro, Ginepro and Chinotto were retired from the Blue Mediterranean range. Fico is still great. But I also recommend Colonia Intensa, Colonia Futura and Colonia Pura.
@kevin. Since you mentioned owning Pura Intensa and Futura, I was wondering if I could get your opinion of the three. I'm considering a blind buy of Futura, since I've read comments about it being the most natural refreshing smelling of the Colonia Line. Do you agree with that too? Or would you recommend Pura or Intensa for the Summer instead? 😊
@@oldiesgeek454 colonia is more soapy. Futura is more barbershop fugere, masculine. Pura is more modern and more unisex. Intensa beautiful, stronger and more long lasting. I prefer Pura and Intensa of the 4. But also enjoy wearing Futura. Over time, the soapy character of Colonia original is becoming less appealing to me personally.
You shouldn’t have missed Essenza, apart from that great review, you are right about Bergamot one but same goes for Assoluta there are so many like this, my no. 1 is Leather & no.2 is Essenza.
Man I'm so glad I found this video but I see it's 3 years old I hope that you will receive this comment and be able to answer my question. Since you're number one fragrance is Colonia oud intense I'm wondering if you could tell me how close the new Colonia food is to the one that you put at number one in this video. I smelled the intense version one time and said instantly I got to buy this fragrance only to find out it's discontinued and you can't buy it unless you want to pay an arm and a leg on eBay. But the ADP Ood is available to purchase so I'm wondering if you could tell me how close it is to the oud intense
Great video and great recommendations! This is my advise for those considering Colonia or Colonia Essenza. I have tried both, and the differences a minimum. Colonia Essenza really feels old school, the floral tones are very strong, as strong as the citrus notes, which makes it feel like a fragrance more oriented to women than men. Frankly I would not wear this one, way too floral for a guy, but that is my opinion. I'll give mine to some grandma that may want it. I own other fragrances like Roja Parfums Elysium Cologne Parfum and although it contains floral and fruity notes, it feels manly and not old school. If you are more oriented to manly fragrances, these two are definitely a no, no no.
I bought ADP Colonia. I love the opening but when the lavender comes in, it smell like Glade or Ambi Pur Lavendar spray. It almost smells like Imperial Leather soap. It does smell like a grandma when Sandal Wood comes in; not the grandma at the bus stop, but the grandma who carries a birkin bag.
My favourite house , the one that got me into collecting perfumes. I have 25 bottles from this house 😂 Need just two more to complete the blu & ingredients line but i've put myself on lay away , no more buying for a good while.
My two favorite fragrances from AdP are Colonia Oud and Leather, which I feel are brilliant fragrances. Oddly, I generally dislike most of AdP's citrus-Mediterranean style perfumes which they are know for... Enjoyed.
Fuck yeah my favorite house! I love colonia intensa and cedro di taormina and colonia leather! This is one of the best videos in frag comm! Wish more videos were made that explore many from one house in one video. :) nice work my good man!
Got it yesterday and wore it two days in a row. Unsolicited complements both days. It wears pretty light so people have to be close. Went 5 sprays. Got about 5 hours out of it. I carried a small decant to respray for the evening.
I recomend you the Colonia Essenza from EDP, for me is the best fragance in ADP, I live in Mexico and I have a collection from 13 or 14 fragances and this is my favorite ❤️
When looking at their site I can't find Colonia Intensa Oud on there. It's just Colonia Oud. And on Sephora's site the details say "A new interpretation of Colonia Intensa, Colonia Oud combines the unique freshness of Colonia Intensa with one of the world’s most cherished ingredients, Oud, for an unforgettable fragrance that is both fresh and richly aromatic. " Has Colonia Intensa Oud been discontinued and now it's just ACQUA DI PARMA Colonia Oud
It's so easy to love/like most these ADP releases. Got Ginepro, Pura and a decant of Essenza. Now, you are making me want to grab Cedro and Intensa Oud as well. Only thing that stopping me from doing it is that I already got a 10-bottle haul this month as bday gift to myself : ). Oh, the newer releases Chinotto and Sandalo (just came out of being a Harrods exclusive) were letdowns for me.
Great video and so good to see my favourite house getting some love! Was sad that two of my favourite frags of all time were not included though! Sandalo is my favourite fragrance ever (and I own a LOT 😅) and colonia club is utterly phenomenal (batch dependent unfortunately). Agree with you on Fico though. Doesn't work on my skin either
Essenza and colonia oud are summer time masterpieces ..leather is a very good and intensa is fairly nice ..club is fantastic as a sporty dumb reach but with that adp finesse
6ix crew checking in. Been waiting to hear a review from this house. Where did you purchase Colonia Intensa Oud? I want to look for it here in Toronto, unless you purchased online
My favorite is Colonia Oud! I heard such awesome things about Essenza and I love Neroli so I blind bought the big boy, 6oz. The 1st 10 seconds I love that citrus and Neroli but then on my skin the rose mixes in and it goes wrong for me. A soapy smell I don't like, DOH! Always sample if you can lol. I should have kept it safe and got Bergamotto di Calabria.
No Fico di Amalfi...dislike...almost Lol I want to sample the high-end Note Di Colonia line , but they are much harder to get... SOTD is Dolce di Giorno by Bois 1920
I prefer the smell of Acqua di Parma (I have essenza) over any other formal fragrances. Easily take down Bleu di Chanel, Sauvage, Gio Profumo by the way of class it smells however sad... the performance... Now a days I only look for good smells among the beast modes, no beast mode, no look....
So true man, if a fragrance doesnt perform at least decent (6h for me) it wont get any attention from me. I just dont see putting on a fragrance that wont be noticable after 4 hours
OMG YES! AdP C I O is my #1 from this terrific house I wear it indoors here in the tropics long lasting compliment-getter EXLIXIRS OF EDEN has a terrific version for $30 I totally agree with the rest of your list but Id use ESCENTRIC MOLECULE #1 to push their sillage & endurance this house deserves extra credit for their gorgeous instantly recognizable packaging JIM from MIAMI BEACH
Wagwan is a contraction of the expression What's going on? in Jamaican English. The spelling wagwan reflects the pronunciation of the phrase in Jamaican patois, which often drops the final syllables of words. It's not Toronto talk at all. Please cut it out. Smh
ADP is so underrated. Absolutely love Cedro, Ginepro, and Quercia. That new Sandalo smells really good too.
Would you rank the sandalo above those others you listed, now that you had time for it to grow on you (no homo).
Banging review! I could live with only this house for the rest of my life if I had to.
I need to give credit where credit is due: I blind bought Ginepro Di Sardena based on your recommendation. It is beyond incredible. THANK YOU.
My husband had the leather one, but he soon got tired of it because he said the perfume was too strong and “salty” on him. So i started using it on myself and... surprisingly on a feminine skin it has all another smell, i can smell the rose first then the citrus fruits and the woods.

I absolutely love Assoluta and Mandorlo di Sicilia so happy to see those on the list!
i love adp my top 5 are the oud one, og colonia, arancia di capri, bergamotto di calabria and fico di amalfi
I only tried Acqua di parma Sandalo Edc, and I love it!!!
It's really that good huh???
@@mercedesbenzs600bash was good for me) but tastes are so different, u know)

Great review my man and it's great that you put the names of the colognes on the screen,that helps out a whole lot....
You shouldn’t have missed Essenza, apart from that great review, you are right about Bergamot one but same goes for Assoluta there are so many like this, my no. 1 is Leather & no.2 is Essenza.
Thanks for the reply man!! Essenza to me is like a strong shaving cream, let me know other perfumes like this, thanks.
Thanks bro!! Will definitely try Rive Gauche!!
Is the leather a harsh or smooth leather????
i will have to agree with you . leather easily number one
Man I'm so glad I found this video but I see it's 3 years old I hope that you will receive this comment and be able to answer my question.

Fico di Amalfi starts with citrus and fig but at the drydown its just fig. Smelling like a fig tree isnt really fun. Nice video.
It is if you are a fig tree.
Thanks for posting this James!
You must try Colonia Club….. yeah we want content for transition period winter-spring, or early spring fragrances.
Colonia intensa? Colonia Club?
Intensa Oud is sooooo good! I smelled it a couple wks ago and will def be getting this very very soon!!
Hi, my favorites are Vaniglia Eau de Parfum and Ginepro di Sardegna - love them both ❤
Is the oud office worthy? Is the projection too much?
What size are these?
Colonia Oud is beautiful! So addictive! Need to try colinia intensa oud. Any idea what's the difference?

Was Colonia Sandalo under consideration?
I own the winner / YES 😊 and I love it too..... the best Oud on the market
Is it a real harsh oud????
My fav is Colonia Intensa which is my go to summer scent. I'm surprised it didn't make it in the list. Thanks for putting this together
Not gonna lie, I thought for sure no. 1 would be colonia essenza. Not a fan I take it?
How does this compare to the 2018/19 ADP oud edp????????
Please reply,,,
I’ve been told it’s the same formulation just edp. Thanks.

Boooooooom! Greatest house in the history of mankind!
Top 3 fragance house, underrated, like comme des garçons: criminaly underrated.
Guys why did they discontinue mirra?

@@royalfragrance i also want to try quercia.. AC from the channel "smells good" spoke very highly of quercia! Check out his video!

Love your vids this is perfecto! Great Job!! How do you still feel about your number 1? Is it still all season versatile with longevity?
Love fico di Amalfi And colonia assoluta!
Fico didn't work on your skin but does it smell good? projection issue? not mix well..? Good video.
I haven't tried a single Acqua di Parma fragrance. I'll be ordering a sample of Fico di Amalfi today.
How was it????
I just got Fico yesterday and DAMN! It is a BANGER! Will be wearing a lot of this during the next few months.
@@wpenman3 I just ordered FICO,so you really like it huh,does it last and project,how sprays do you use????
Got it yesterday and wore it two days in a row. Unsolicited complements both days. It wears pretty light so people have to be close. Went 5 sprays. Got about 5 hours out of it. I carried a small decant to respray for the evening.
Where did you purchase Colonia Intensa Oud?
I have 9 . Colonia Intensa and Colonia Essenza are my favourites.
Thanks I couldn’t find other video about this perfume thanks again
You wear adp oud in summer? One of those people. That shit is headache inducing. Oud is winter only
Great list and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed night
Nice review on this house. Question, what do you think about Acqua di Parma Club Colonia? By the way, already subscribed.
I recomend you the Colonia Essenza from EDP, for me is the best fragance in ADP, I live in Mexico and I have a collection from 13 or 14 fragances and this is my favorite ❤️

Colonia Oud
Loved this episode! I’ve been looking at adp for a spring summer fragrance
Original all the way. 👍
Did you happen to try the new Sandalo Colonia? It's just a master piece and a softer version of colonia oud
Having owned or sampled their entire range, Assoluta and Oud. Their best product is the shaving cream, tho, the glass jar model.
Cool video but my 2 favourite aren’t on the list. 1 - Essenza and 2 - Cipresso di Toscana (sadly discontinued).
What is the best fresh acqu di Parma fragrance I need one🤗
It's so easy to love/like most these ADP releases. Got Ginepro, Pura and a decant of Essenza. Now, you are making me want to grab Cedro and Intensa Oud as well. Only thing that stopping me from doing it is that I already got a 10-bottle haul this month as bday gift to myself : ).

Thnx for doing this man! Ginepro and cedro are in my have to put my nose on list :)
Nice list bro, I love ADP. I would have to have Colonia Intensa and Essenza at the top though. I also love Pura for hot weather
I'm quite surprised there is not Colonia Essenza in your list
Great review
Exactly what I was looking for, I got a sample of Colonia Assoluta and thought it was pretty good! New subscriber, bell clicked
Essenza and colonia oud are summer time masterpieces ..leather is a very good and intensa is fairly nice ..club is fantastic as a sporty dumb reach but with that adp finesse
Cedro di Taormina is my ish
