Angel Men Thierry Mugler Masterpiece!!!!!

This is the first time I’ve encountered your channel. Thank you for your very interesting and in depth review of this beautiful, beautiful perfume. I adore L’ Heure Bleue in the extrait and EDP versions. It’s a deeply personal-feeling perfume, that I hope will always be in production. I’m so grateful that Thierry Wasser was able to restore LHB (source what was needed) when it was faltering years ago. Was it 2013? My favorite part of LHB is the Guerlinade, and how it envelops me during the dry down. I agree with you 100% that the Guerlinade in LHB is the best of all the Guerlain fragrances. I look forward to watching more of your reviews.

Amazing! Thx for the thoughtful reviews! I am trying to challenge my nose / collection to have at least one or two scents from the 12 Michael Edwards scent catagories. I have lots in 9 catagories. But none in the “water” & “fruity” catagoriess. So I blind bought Pavloval as my 1st Fruity! Happy with it. Also added St Honore to round out the order. Have you ever used his site to categorize your collection? I’d love to know which catatgory you have the most of, and the least of. Thx again!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Saint Honore is the one I like, I might get a 30ml bottle. I am not sure about the drydown yet so a small bottle is a good warmup. I love Iris Medici myself. Nicolai generously included a 15ml travel spray together with my full bottle purchase from their website.

Macaron Bourbon I like a lot and yes, Patricia de Nicolai found the way to balance so well a gourmand bouquet.

On my left I have the Parfum, on my right I have the EDT. So, both are very nice smelling fragrances and the quality of the juice is excellent. Now, I am not an expert in identifying the single notes. EDT vs Parfum -> EDT: brighter, classier, grassier, fresher, greener than the Parfum & a lot complexer; Parfum: denser, darker, woodier, much less citrussier, more intense Vetiver, simplified in comparison to the EDT. Projection: The EDT projects a lot more and has better longevity. The Parfum cuts better through the really cold weather, sits closer to the skin. But most of time your are inside. So if you are a fan of more complexe scents, the EDT, not the Parfum, will be the right scent for you. If you're a collector, buy both. If you don't have the money, stay with the EDT.

Waw…what a complex description( large vocabulary)!I’m blown away…congrats 👌

I got one too from Dubai and so far I love it so much ❤

Saint Honoré is my favorite and I've already gone through half of my 30 ml bottle. 🙂 They are all certainly beautiful! Nice review.

Love your perfume cabinet . 🙌 These three sound amazing. I’m still getting used to gourmands but Parfums de Nicolai makes some awesome fragrances. I like Neroli intense and Patchouli intense. Very nice both of them. 🙌

Linia asta a trecut toată la alegorii? Au fost și reformulate, oare? Nu știu exact care a fost mișcarea.

Today I'm sampling the three new deserts from Nicolaï Parfumeur Createur: Pavlova, Macaron Bourbon & Saint Honoré. Let me tell you, I have a clear favourite.

What an excellent video. I enjoyed every minute. Thank you so much!! ❤️

Sometimes a little familiarity helps. From the perfumer Mathieu Nardin, the same one who created Santal du Pacifique, one of my favourite marine sandalwood scents, comes Sous le Pont Mirabeau, hosted by État Libre d'Orange. Same beats of acrid sandalwood, mineral tones and a watery, delicate violet.

Excelent! 👑👑👑

Tare tareeee! Superreview r there. 👌👌👌👌👌

the entire Gratte Ciel collection was recently discontinued, though the announcement was somewhat vague. it’s possible they’re only retiring the bottle design and might move some perfumes to other collections, like Noire or Flacon de Table (which frustratingly come without atomizers). for now, it seems they’re just clearing out stock with black friday sales.

also glad to see you also enjoy parole d'eau. simple but gorgeous, I can see myself wearing this a lot in spring and summer, as well was Dior Granville

Hmm, I guess I'll have to try Ecrin de Fumee now. I was put off when I saw it had a tobacco note, I'm really not into tobacco perfumes. But I LOVE vanilla, and love Un Bois Vanille, so maybe I should give it a chance :D

De Profundis and Fumerie Turque are special. But Parole D’eau is very underrated too, a great and unique freshie. Great reviews as always, enjoyed your take. Cheers!

Oh you sold me on this 😍 need to sample. I love how they always advertise de profundis during Halloween 😁

Ps: this is one of the most interesting perfume histories + videos I’ve experienced. Sheldrake + Lutens really do have this duality… what you are sharing is so rich.

Hello dear Florian. Enjoying watching you experience this. I LOVE chrysanthemums… so underrated. That lovely, peppery, almost pungent + unmistakable (but rarely focused on on perfumes these days) scent. I don’t think I’ve tried this Lutens scent. I go to Paris next week + tho I’m trying to do it on the cheap, I am going to allow myself to buy one perfume from the flagship. It’s going to be a tough (but fun) choice. Thanks for celebrating artists! PS: violets, uhhuh!? Love those, too.

Serge Lutens is a master. his take on Amber is still to this day unique. Such a peculiar human that Serge Lutens, it transpires in his art. You can tell he is profoundly longing for his mother. it's in every single Serge Lutens I have.

Loved the deep dive on the psychology of De Profundis! My only association with chrysanthemum is in tea form and I get some of that smell here, I can also totally imagine tulip. I love the greenness of the scent, to me it's a totally happy spring scent but I can also imagine the association with funeral flowers. As usual Serge leaves a lot to unpack!

have your top 10 changed since 3 years ago? would love an updated english version on this topic!

I had the opportunity to try this before it's release. And of course it smells good, but it isn't vibrant or unique, nor does it conjure imagination.

In my honest opinion this is the best designer release of 2024! Hear me out i hated Habit Rouge (the mid and drydown parts were too flowery for my taste) and i always said that the top notes were the best part of it. Fast forward many years someone took the top notes amped the vanilla and gave it a gourmand aspect resulting in PURE perfection. I was smacked at first sniff, bought it in September directly from Guerlain in Bucharest as I could not find it anywhere else.

This is the first perfume I smelled in a perfume shop when I was young. Big love from the first sniff, but it was SO expensive. Bought it last month from notino in Romania for 25 Euros. Honestly a steal now I have 2 bottles. I also own the EDT but it's so much lighter than the EDP.

Не пробовала этот аромат . Самое любимое у Лютана это Черный Футляр , Поджигатель и Дыхание Богов . Обзоры у вас всегда очень интересные ❤

De Profundis sounds like my kind of fragrance. Unfortunately, it's hard to trust someone else's nose.

Love this one. Just purchased it myself last week in the same bottle. Extremely underrated.

Moments like these are rare and I treasure them deeply.

You need to try original Twilly, so much more joyful still 🎉 was not really impressed by Barenia personally, there is some synthetic component in it which really bothers me, maybe that woody one you are talking about…

Exact asta a fost si reactia mea: God, this is perfect! :) Multumesc pt review. Cat de mult tine pe haine! O placere sa il porti.

I recently got a sample of Feve Gourmande (with my bottle of Shalimar Jasmin ❤ btw) and it’s sooo good. The price is way up there but I only sprayed three times and I smelled it 12+ hours so the bottle would last for a long time.

What a nice surprise Barénia from Hermès turned out. Soft and sheer like a wisp of silky champagne but with a heft and balance only a chypre can bring. Bravo, Christine Nagel.

I'm late for a comment but I really enjoyed the comparison. I will have to test the new version, this is intriguing. Could the differences be explained by bottle aging ?

Nice tfs

Very interesting. I need to compare mine with Bois D'Argent....I love doing this type of exercises. This scent reminds me of Sammarco's Bond-T, a patchouli scent I admire very much on paper but turns foul on my skin. The Guerlain behaves...maybe because it's more mixed media/ synthetic.

This does also remind me of my lemongrass plant...the sticky saps from the leaves transferring to my hands and in the warm air. It has the same sizzling texture as alot of male marketed blue scents, but find myself coming back to this range from time to time.

Good, simple, honest scent.

You have a lovely Channel and way of reviewing

I purchased a full bottle of Belle Ame. I can smell the quality of the ingredients and its beauty is compelling. True masterpiece.

Thanks for your review! 👍

First Tonka Imperiale and now Bois D'Armenie and Iris Torrefie?!?!?! Yet Epices Volees sits on the site as comfortable as can be? WHO is making these decisions?

YES!!!! I've been WAITING for you to review this one. I haven't smelled it yet and am dying to know what you think.

I have Bois d'Argent... I guess I'll stick with it 😁

Now that bois d'armenie is discontinued its hard to get🥲 do you think L'Air du désert marocain is a good alternative or do you have an even better suggestion?

Ah, I actually really enjoyed this one. Found it very patchouli heavy, but in a Guerlain-ified way. Enjoyed your thoughts as always, cheers.
