You are the my absolute favorite fragrance reviewer. I've learned so much from you and from Omar from School of Scent. I had to tell you that I sincerely appreciate all of your work. Thank you.
I recommend you to try More Than Words back at the beginning of 2021, so this review is something I've been looking forward to watching. I love this house, this perfume, it is so opulent and beautiful. Xerjoff states that it was made to interpret the inner vision of poets and writers. All I know is that it's a work of art. Thank you for your thoughts Aaron.
Aaron you're looking so healthy and well, and insightful as ever. Charmed to hear your thoughts on More Than Words. May I ask, I work in a nice, open plan office space with only a few other people, what might you recommend from your own fragrance house that I can wear at work?
And here we have it again ladies and gentlemen,……. A great perfume review! Thank you so much Mr Hughes. Keep on doing what you are doing, and we will be happy. Greetings from BERLIN
More than Words is one of the most Beast Mode frags I own out of 160+ bottles. The longevity of that scent just lasts and lasts and lasts especially on your clothes! Absolute gorgeous scent and it's most definitely a unisex fragrance for sure. One of Xerjoff's better releases IMO especially with the longevity once again! Great review as always ATH, spot on as usual my man! 💯👊🏼
Definitely Beast Mode. One of my favorites. My only, and I mean only criticism of it, is smelling it up close…When I do that, I get too much of that syrupy raspberry/fruitcake jam that is too strong. BUT, the scent in the air is absolutely phenomenal, and that’s where the magic happens and where the compliments come pouring in! Is it just my nose or do you get that when too close to skin as well?
@@Najdorf_eventually you get there and one day you're standing in front of your collection at 6 am wondering WTF have I done and WTF am I going to wear today 😅
@schism6976 Good day. I own 24 bottles since late 2020. My real first purchase was Dior Sauvage started my walk. I don't own every one of a fragrance from a house. Do you own every fragrance from a particular house? I own three from Xerjoff, three from Unique'E Luxury, four from Mancera. One's and two's from other houses. I've found myself only making the fragrance purchase from Niche houses. I've become very selective and this process helped me from making any fragrance purchase. 24 fragrances makes me say (What am I wearing today? 160 fragrances, I think you just close your eyes and pick😂😂lol. Have a great More then words day.
Your reviews are so calming and informative and are absolutely perfect when I'm wanting to sleep but need something to watch to relax first. I'd love to see you review Hawas by Rasasi. In terms of memories, it is my favourite ever fragrance, mostly because of how incredible its projection and longevity is ( although admittedly that might have been aided by working in a hot and sweaty American summer camp at the time).
I just felt like More than Words when I woke up. It's 72°on a nice cool sunny Autumn day. It's still kicking at 10pm after 5 sprays. This is an amazing scent for this type of weather.
Instant click! Cant wait! Edit: just finished watching, yay my fav Xj got a 10! i literally let out alpachino’s “whoaa” when I first sprayed More Than Words and it stayed on me for 3 days lol
Hey Aaron, I would love to see you reviewing Givenchy Pi as it‘s one of my absolute favourite scents. It doesn't get as much hype but for me it is such a beautiful personal scent that smells like heaven. Greetings from Germany ✌🏽
I just got this for my Dad for Christmas. He loves strong fragrances. Man oh Man. He sprayed this downstairs and I smelled it upstairs. He took my car yesterday and I still smell it in my car a day later. This is insane. Stronger than Ombré Nomade.
It would be extremely interesting if Aaron reviewed all the perfumes in the Join The Club collection. Since Xerjoff doesn't disclose the notes in this collection it would be very fun to see what ingredients he can pick up and then compare it to what people say on Fragrantica and Basenotes 😊
I do love Orientals so I'm going to have to get a sample as I also love this house. My first bottle from this house was Naxos but my alltime favourite is their sister company called casamorati and the fragrance is named corallo 🦄
As I say on every comment, you are one good fragrance reviewer and one helluva perfume chemist. Please keep this house in the forefront. Can you do some of your work. Not to toot your horn, just give us some of your insight to what your soul was doing when you made some of your fragrances. Keep.up the great work. I'm purchasing your fragrances in February and March.
Thank you for mentioning that your skin eats fragrances. It’s a problem I have with designer (la Nuit de L’home Bleu Electrique) and niche fragrances (Killian Straight To Heaven). Now I feel like less of an anomaly 🙏
it's addictive to watch if it's a perfume you love and see someones else's opininion on it , one of my favourites, if you got the chance to get to smell knightsbridge by robert piguet, and curious to see when you'll get a review on Ganymede
Great review love it and i love this scent. I have a 50 ml vintage bottle of this one of the strongest fragrances i have ever had or tried. It last for agaes and project like there is no tommorow . Love the ambery dry fruit mixed with awsome rose and oud. One of my favo from the house. I love Alxendaria 2 too but that is another story . Well done i want to buy one of yours . May i ask which one of them are you little extra proud of, i know they are all your babies and you may love them all but if you can tell me the nr one for you from them and also recommed me one that you think i would love, i give you a cloe , i love tobacco, amber, vanilla, oud, myrrhe, resions and so on… Have a nice one 🙂
I am excited by you passion. Love your descriptions. Please Sir is it possible to put a sample package together for an older man in the US. I have a varied taste in parfum. Looking forward to getting a nose full of your creations.
Tested this a few weeks ago--I think this is one of my favorites from the house. I love their oud-like raw materials in this one. So gorgeous, and I agree with your review. Just purchased Luxor from them--a decent incense heart fragrance. You said you used to be crazy about incense--that would be a good one to review. You're also selling an incense forward fragrance yes?
Now that you mention it, why not include presentation at least as bonus points? Some houses treat it as art as well, Xerjoff, Stephane Humbert Lucas..etc. i also think you should try Cologne Cedrat by Matiere Premiere since u mentioned that bergamot isnt a crazy component. CC gives off a unique bergamot smell with incredible longevity
Aaron, you make me so excited about fragrances when I watch your reviews. Haha. Your passion is so contagious. 😊 As a professional perfumer and a fragrance advisor, do you ever find yourself getting burnt out with your sense of smell? Do you take days where you don't wear anything at all? I guess if you're working with ingredients, you wouldn't want your own fragrance to interfere with the smell of the ingredients you're working with.
More Than Words is my second fragrance from Join the club collection. I was lucky to find used bottle with 80ml in it. I prefer already used fragrances coz can use it right away in it's full potential. MTW don't care what skin you have. It will last and project like crazy! Like to use 3 to 4 sprays with this one. Awesome fragrance!
Hi Aaron! I recently asked about your microphone that you use in your videos, you had told me that you were going to ask your sound guy, did you end up asking him about it? Thanks :)
Aaron, you made an excellent point about your skin. Its definitely the tattoos. I have the same issue. On one arm is covered w/tattoos and other is w/out and fragrances smell completely different on them.
thats interesting you mentioned that cause I'm heavily tattooed and fragrances don't seem to latch on my body too well, but on my neck which is pretty much the only place I dont have tattooed,fragrances smell much more radiant.
Hi. The tattooed skin might be part of the explanation, but is not all. I don't have one single tattoo and I have the same problem: on me, a good projecting perfume very quickly becomes a whimp! I always have to over spray or choose beast mode perfumes....
Same thing here - I'm trying to sell Duro (Poland based - if you want to buy a 29/30 duro for 300 hit me up!) Because my skin has problems with projection. I've said it before, but Nishane Suede et Safran was so beastly on me my wife asked me to sell it :D (imagine a better and stronger Tuscan Leather - now you know why she hated it haha)
You should try atelier des ors lune feline; rose omyeade; the 24 k gold flakes with quality juice makes the ultimate experience for me they are right there with xerjoff
I just ordered a full bottle of More Than Words, passing on buying a full bottle of Naxos. I gave Naxos another test wear last night to decude which full bottle to buy, and tgere is something with Naxos that irritates me. I think its the lavender, which is ironic since lavender is generally my favorite note. But I don't think the lavender plays well with the rest of the Naxos composition. Naxos would be what everyone says it is if it were not for that - elegant, sophisticated. So More Than Words won out. Its an enjoyable Amber Fruity Floral Oud. For me, its the "fruity" notes embedded in that creamy amber that "puts the cherry on the parfait" for me.
@@hobojump7651 Naxos is a safe blind-buy, one of the safest niche blind-buys out there. I am going to get Xerjoff More than Words and also I'm going to re-purchase Naxos which is very versatile. I also have Xerjoff Alexandria II but that is for special occasions and that one smells regal.
You know its good when the Ethyl Maltol is whipping through the base.
💀💀💀you could see him smirk a little while saying this. Hahaha. Aaron, you're adorable

LOOOOOL YES
I spit my drink out. 😂

Guapo, legend, Maverick! Odyssey is also great
@@AaronTerenceHugheswhich one do you prefer more than word or Erba Pura , Thanks 🙏
And with this review I ordered my first bottle of Xerjoff...as always a joy to watch. Thanks 😊
It will be my first bottle too, this review just sold it 😌
thoughts? Naxos will be my first. the sample I got is amazing
Lol same here
And here we have it again ladies and gentlemen,……. A great perfume review! Thank you so much Mr Hughes. Keep on doing what you are doing, and we will be happy. Greetings from BERLIN
Xerjoff fragrances are like 90 % all top tier, its amazing :)) i hope u reviews some of their summer fragrances now
im two years late but may i ask your top xerjoff(s)?;D

Always love your reviews Aaron.

Hard candy and High Voltage !!!! cant wait to smell your 2 new editions ! Hard candy sounds very interesting .Bound to be 2 WINNERS !
Put on More Than Words a couple hours before bed last night, it was still pounding off my skin and sheets this morning. ❤️
Hey Aaron, I would love to see you reviewing Givenchy Pi as it‘s one of my absolute favourite scents. It doesn't get as much hype but for me it is such a beautiful personal scent that smells like heaven. Greetings from Germany ✌🏽
My fav from this house currently is Torino21. This is going to have to go on the list. Loving the beard. Coming in nicely!
I just got this for my Dad for Christmas. He loves strong fragrances. Man oh Man. He sprayed this downstairs and I smelled it upstairs. He took my car yesterday and I still smell it in my car a day later. This is insane. Stronger than Ombré Nomade.
Got my full bottle of More than words. Really love the amber and the hint of sweet oud. I have to try out one of your creations someday.
Etho molto ripping through the base. Never tire of hearing you say that. Sounds like a good night out to me
It would be extremely interesting if Aaron reviewed all the perfumes in the Join The Club collection. Since Xerjoff doesn't disclose the notes in this collection it would be very fun to see what ingredients he can pick up and then compare it to what people say on Fragrantica and Basenotes 😊
Love xerjoff and I think it’s the same high quality work as Aaron’s!
Pls review 40 knots too. Love your work
I absolutely love your reviews. So good
One of the best rose ouds out there. Slightly resembles A3 to me. Well done Aaron
The opening reminds me a lot of noir de noir, but I love this for the fall/winter
Wait whatttttttt im happy for this I’ve been waiting for this since I known of you ath
This Xerjoff is super special... and the longevity, crazy!
I do love Orientals so I'm going to have to get a sample as I also love this house. My first bottle from this house was Naxos but my alltime favourite is their sister company called casamorati and the fragrance is named corallo 🦄

i want u to review 40 knots by xerjoff plezz
Reminds me of the song by the same name by the band Extreme.
Amazing perfume.I love the fruity opening so much
One of my favorites. I was literally negotiating a trade of Parfums de Marly’s Galloway for this. More Than Words works so well on my skin.
Any chance you'd be willing to trade or buy it? I want to love it more but It's just too strong for me
@@alexandervalentine4943 - Hey, Alex. I would if I needed another bottle, but I recently bought another a few weeks ago.
As always amazing review😉.

Thank you for mentioning that your skin eats fragrances. It’s a problem I have with designer (la Nuit de L’home Bleu Electrique) and niche fragrances (Killian Straight To Heaven). Now I feel like less of an anomaly 🙏
I'll be checking this because the master approves. Please look at Guerlain Santal Royal
Alexandria ii is all the money‼️
Ur next review i bet its gonna be african leather memo paris
I own Alexandria II. Do you think it would be redundant to own both or is this different enough from Alexandria II to be worth owning both?

Thanks Aaron!! Can you please do ivory route and zefiro from xerjoff?
Very Nice Aaron!
Easily one of my favourite houses. Zafiero, Naxos and Decas are my personal top 3. Very versatile and great quality
Zefiro is a very underrated gem! I love this one
The whole 1861 collection is underrated! Decas is ❤️
@@Smoke_C agree! i prefer renaissance to nio :)

That perfume sounds pretty top shelf , especially if you give it a 10.i will have to get my nose on it with that score . Thanks Arron
Not surprised you love this, I had to sell my bottle, what a monsterous fragrance that lasts forever! I just couldn't get past the scent.
Keep it up brother!
please try Nishane Neffs!!!!
Can you do a review on Cruz Del Sur 2
Thank you
I am excited by you passion. Love your descriptions. Please Sir is it possible to put a sample package together for an older man in the US. I have a varied taste in parfum. Looking forward to getting a nose full of your creations.
Aaron, this fragrance is said to be a oud/rose fragrance. Do you think this contains real oud and rose?
Try Torino21 it’s a newer release. A fresh perfume. I would rly wanna know what you think of it.
I know this vid is old but do the “40 knots” from the join the club collection as well.
Can you review jtc 400?
Love the beard aaron
Looking very handsome, Aaron. You granted a 10!
Can you review Xerjoff Alexandria III?
@@solidsnake4320 if unwanted Alexandria go for Alexandria II :) 3 smells so bad
You should try Xerjoff Nio or Xerjoff 40 knots
I would really love to hear your thoughts on the new Dior Homme Sport! It’s one of my new faves, not long lasting but I love the smell
starlight next??:)
can more than words work in summer nights? in my region is about 65 F

Can’t wait to order Guapo tomorrow!! When is the US exclusive releasing?🦄
That is exclusively for Maxaroma and being launched when im there
Aaron...please review "Signature Rose" by Zaharoff. All the online reviewers are raving about it...but YOUR opinion matters most! Thank you :)
Fantastic house and my very first xerjoff purchase it wasn’t my last don’t like everyone but the ones I do wow different gravy Aaron
I love the reviews mate. While you're doing a few Xerjoff reviews, any chance you could do 1861 Renaissance?
Which one last longer in terms of Longevity between XERJOF ALEXANDRIA 11 and XERJOF MORE THAN WORDS?
More than word last longer
Hey Aaron! Just purchased your OUD 2020! Amazing and addictive smell, wow😍 Do you think it's wearable in hot weather conditions?
Best regards🦄
Yes. just use less
When he was like "Grrrrr" I felt that 🙏
Thanks Aaron.
just picked up "Don" and "Uden Overdose" for 64% off at my local niche perfume shop thats closing down, best quality at the most amazing price.
Now that you mention it, why not include presentation at least as bonus points? Some houses treat it as art as well, Xerjoff, Stephane Humbert Lucas..etc. i also think you should try Cologne Cedrat by Matiere Premiere since u mentioned that bergamot isnt a crazy component. CC gives off a unique bergamot smell with incredible longevity
This is the best fragrance house on the market! Best overall value for money.
I dont hear you said about "rose" 😮😮😅😅
