[@kevinluna6087]

Love the honesty in your reviews. The Love Toxin sounds intriguing ... Hello from Slovakia!

[@petrapetruta]

Did someone win this givaway?I am very curious cause I haven't seen any new comment concerning this.

[@mariagry]

I am from Romania. I love Lilyn from Calaj, the bottle is hand-painted by Flaviu's mother, I am tempted by love toxin because I like perfumes because they last even after a shower.

[@IamNoelle]

Happy you reviewed fragrances from Calaj, proud of being Romanian. Hopefully you will tell us your opinion about more fragrances from this house, in the future. Thank you! 🥰

[@lmm4829]

I must say, I have not watched all of your videos but this is the one time I’ve seen you trying so hard to be nice and gentlemanly to a situation that’s repulsive. 🙆🏾‍♂️😂 And I love your honesty! I would however would be keen to try Metaphore WJ though I have a feeling of “mea culpa” after trying it. Always great to hear your thoughts. Love from South Africa.

[@MemoryFlo]

Hey! Congrats on the video! This was extremely interesting as I just reviewed them on my channel (in Romanian) so I know Lilyn and Metaphore but have no idea how Love Toxin smells like and I do enjoy a challenging fragrance so the latter catches my eye. Greetings from Romania!

[@madalinamatei8664]

Hello from a Romanian living in the UK. I appreciate the fact that your descriptions are very easy to 'smell', in the sense that my brain can actually paint an olfactory image based on what you say about a perfume. I really like aquatic/marine note so I'd love to try Lilyn! Cheers!

[@RonaldJapenga]

I haven't heard of the brand before, but I love the bottles and you really sold me on Metaphore WJ in your review. I've started to become a "Patcho" myself and I just can't get enough of it. Leather, Tobacco and Honey are the cherries on top. I love everything about this juice! Greetings from the UK.

[@Wandergempa]

Metaphore Wj sounds interesting. Vintage-Patchuli reminds me of my dad. Huge fan from Hungary 🇭🇺

[@tazercin]

I love that you are always introducing more new houses, both mainstream and indie and helping me explore more. I also appreciate your honesty and just presenting the fragrances as they are perceived by you without sugarcoating. Would definitely love the chance to take part and win 1 of this! Metaphor wj and lilyn sounds the best. Love toxin sounds way too much for where I live in Singapore. Thank you!

[@stefanbalint2155]

What I loved about this and frankly all of your reviews is your blunt honesty. Metaphor WJ sounds the most intriguing to me, I LOVE the note of patchouli. I am from the great state of New Hampshire in the USA.

[@majstorgile]

Thanks for honest review

[@bryantworley2922]

The best thing about the video is the honesty. You're not into being a hype monster. I really liked your take on Metaphor WJ, so that would be the one I want. I live in Waldorf, MD, USA.

[@ThePauloEmo]

Love the honesty in this review. I can see that you are really put off by Love Toxin, but that one seems the most interesting to me. I have a soft spot for the weird, ultra animalic fragrances. Greetings from Portugal!

[@paccrs]

I love Calaj brand,especially that is from my country,Romania. I like Metaphore the most.I enjoyed hearing you talking about it.

[@forrestanez]

I liked that this is the first video I have seen you talking about challenging scents. Metaphore WJ sounds the best to me. I live USA, Hawaii.

[@LB-xk6fk]

I love and appreciate your honesty in this video; with you, we get the good, the bad and the ugly. LOVE TOXIN sounds intriguing to me.... Usa-NYC

[@MarkMarkMark678]

Best thing about the review was that we can always count on you to give us a raw, real, and honest review. I truly appreciate that but I’d still be interested in getting my nose on one of them I think I’d be most interested in trying out metaphor. I live in Texas

Great 📹 and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed 🌙

[@bazza4179]

hi sebastian, what I love about your review is your honesty and straight to the point. this is the first time I'm hearing about the house. I would like to explore the house, and I would like to get METAPHORE WJ or LILYN. I'm from Australia. cheers

[@defne9673]

It was lovely to watch your honest opinions about these fragrances. I have smelled all of them before, and I agree with you, they are not that refined and a little challenging. But I like that kind of aura of perfume sometimes. I find Lilyn to be the most elegant of them. That hand painted bottle is so beautiful as well, I would love to have one. Thank you for your reviews and this giveaway. I live in Germany.

[@aleksandraciprijanovic6968]

Very very interesting. I love your honesty and very detailed descriptions. I didn't know about this brand. I learned abut them from your recent most challenging video. Out of the three Lilyn sound the most interesting to me and even something I might like so I would pick that one. It also has a very interesting bottle! The other two are a bit riskier for my taste. I'm from Illinois, US.

[@cejII]

I love the color of Love Toxin. Sebastian's dislike of it makes me want to try it. I appreciate his honest experience with the fragrance. There are some other scents from Calaj I would like to put to skin. Nevertheless I would like choose Lilyn. I do not own anything white floral and aquatic nor can remember smelling such. Here in fickle weather Northern California

[@connorrichards6872]

The thing I loved most about the review is the honesty of course👍 and love toxin sounds very intriguing, especially when you mentioned the fruits and animalic notes and hello from Texas!

[@antuck1]

I love that you can be trusted to speak your mind when you don't love a fragrance! You are fair and generous in your reviews, but also seem like you can be trusted to be impartial. As for the bottle, I would love to try Lilyn! I'm on a total tuberose kick right now and if it smells anything at all like Carnal Flower (or the two tuberoses from Rogue Perfumery), I will be a huge fan. Not generally a fan of aquatic notes either but the ones in this one sound like they'd match the tuberose well. I think they are going for the water lily theme based on the combination of white floral and aquatics. Cheers from North Carolina.

[@fatbrad412]

I appreciate the honesty and sincerity when a fragrance doesn’t agree with you! We need more of that realness! I think Metaphore WJ sounds best to me. I am from Pennsylvania. Thanks!

[@MrMarwan1980]

Great review as always 👏

[@LawSuth]

I'll always be happy to know your take on various indie fragrances. I liked many things about these reviews and was pleased to hear the detail (fruit & animalic) behind what you didn't really like. It's an education. I'd go with Metaphore WJ (Dallas, TX).

[@pacurarcristian2517]

Great niche brand Calaj! I love Metapohore!I am frim Romania.

[@petegallardo1216]

U.S. NY A new house that I've never heard of, another honest review I always enjoy seeing new fragrance houses I think I might enjoy that metaphor fragrance and maybe lilyn good job

[@kevinpayne7497]

I usually don't like aquatic either but I fell in love with Lilyn and just purchased a whole bottle at Luckyscent

[@leonelomarbarragansanchez4343]

I like your sincerity about the fragrances; lilyn sounds interesting to me

[@mauraborealice]

You are a bit of a mentor to my budding "collection". As yet, I mostly have Vetivers! I need to step out, try some new categories. I prefer subtlety, so these may not be the best choice for me, but I do love your descriptions. Oregon, USA

[@minuano08]

Always appreciate your honesty and thorough breakdown of fragrances. I personally like 'standout / unique' fragrances. Would welcome - Love Toxin. Living in S. Florida

[@AndyPanayiotou27]

Great video! I really enjoy how you describe the fragrances. With a mix of what notes you get, feeling and if it reminds you of anything. To be honest, Love Toxin sounds the most interesting to me. Hellos from Cyprus.

[@SamuelGustav]

I always like your honest opinions. I actually do enjoy Love Toxin a lot :p so that's my pick. Im from Portugal

[@nickclevely7211]

Hi Sebastian, I appreciate that you let us know your biases when reviewing it gives a good idea of whether I think I would like them or not. I am in New Zealand and am interested in Metaphor, thanks

[@VamseeNunna]

One more house that I've never heard of. Metaphore WJ sounds interesting. Sign me up pls. Thanks Sebastian.

[@bishanf]

Very honest review Sebastian… Thanks for keeping it real… I’ve been checking out this brand for a while now… so I’m interested in entering the giveaway… After this review I think I’ll want to get Metaphor WJ… and in from Sri Lanka

[@byakuganwing]

Haven't been able to try this brand yet, though I'm really curious... Even for the most challenging one! 😁 Thank you for the video! 👍

[@edisonyap7353]

Metaphor wj seems exciting, would love to win it!

[@iraida5343]

I just like the fact that Love Toxin sticks around even when we wash the clothes. I think that this perfume is a good representation of a first visit of Love. I would love to have a little sniff of this, but I would choose Lilyn for a longer wear, just because I like this combination better. All the best from Romania :)

[@kevinpayne7497]

Love Toxin is one of my favorite perfumes of all time

[@geomegalogiannis8161]

Great review!! They all sound hard to wear!! But I would love to win love toxin just cause it sounds sooo daring!! Keep up the good work and hello from Greece!!

[@donavandacosta4639]

I can say what I love about the review is the honesty behind a fragrance being too complex to enjoy and the fact that you just don't personally like certain notes that other people might love. If I were to wear one of these fragrances it would definitely be Lilyn, I'm always curious about new floral scents. USA, Indiana

[@biendeodalangin6123]

I've just watched your most challenging perfume video. Hoping to have Calaj Lilyn. I'm intrigued by the notes and what it smells like. Great videos as always. Sending support and love from the Philippines. Hoping you choose me!

[@ginnyginiver]

Wow very interesting house Sebastian, never heard of them. I'm very curious not because they sound great but because you are not too fond of them.

[@amnaaziz3840]

Dear Sebastian, I am intrigued by Metaphore WJ the most because the notes sound great. A house that I am not familiar with. Thanks a million from the United Kingdom

[@adrianasorohan9125]

I love Lilyn and I Love Toxine because I love tubereuse. Transilvania have intristing a tubereuse too

[@shunyshunyka3020]

I appreciate your honesty with the aquatic notes which do not match your personality and even your description of Love Toxin, it is always good to know A HONEST OPINION! I am romanian, but I live in London, UK. I would like to win Metaphore WJ.

[@scentobsession3418]

obsessed with indie perfume....

[@marymccullough377]

Well, I don't like it ruff, anymore, but I do enjoy Miguel's creativity. Love Toxin?......bring it! My choice is made. More indie, please. Thanks for the opportunity to sniff! Mich USA

[@mikefordsaccount4900]

Very interesting house with unique scents. I'm curious and cautious at the same time.

[@tabacarudelia8502]

The owner of this brand is from my hometown and I didn't even know, but last month I was visiting my parents and came across his shop and tested some fragrances, but from the ones you've mentioned I've only smelled Lilyn. It was fine, but I am not a fan of tuberose fragrances, so it was a no for me. They had displayed another fragrance by Miguel Matos ( Out in the open ) that I really fell head over heels and think I will purchase it, but coming back to your review, I think I got intrigued the most by Metaphore. Like always, I appreciate your honest reviews. Greetings from Italy!

[@flaviuscalaj3796]

Thank you so much 🇹🇩

[@petrapetruta]

The funny part of this video is that just looking at your face I noticed that you are terrified of these perfumes.🤣 I've smelled only Methaphore and Lilyn and my favorite is also Metaphore (I can't stand the aquatic part of Lilyn also).I was craving for a sample of Love Toxin, but it's out of stock here and it was a limited edition so I don't have any ideea about how it smells. It was interesting hearing your review about Calaj,a brand from my very country,Romania.😉 Cheers! 😁

[@jeffreyedwards9947]

Never heard of this house from Romania. I hope they are good.

[@viggenone]

I'm really curious about this ones, as I said in other comment the nose is Miguel Matos and Nishane Unutamam is one of my favorite fragrances, I would really love to try Metaphore an second Lilyn definitely have to buy a discovery set if they have one, I really like your honest opinion also with Owl, as you said you can't like'em all. Thanks for review Sebastian!!! Texas

[@fragzexcited6243]

I'm excited to try and experience what you experience. LOL.

[@osmanaziz5746]

Hi Sebastian, A house that I am not familiar with but I am intrigued by Metaphore WJ 2020 the most because the notes of Patchouli and honey. Thanks a lot from the UK

[@blogityblah]

I kind of like Tom Ford's Santal Blush and think, despite other's claims that it would be a great clean smelling long lasting scent for a day at the beach however if I have a headache I really find it obnoxious to be around for whatever reason. I know it's a bit off topic but this is what I found challenging as a scent that I actually liked under normal conditions. Always enjoy your videos.

Hello Sebastian! All three fragrances sound interesting, but I am most curious about LILYN and I am still searching for a Tuberose perfume to fall in love with ;-)

[@robertkerr9527]

Hi Sebastian. I always appreciate your reviews because you state the important details but let us know exactly why you like or dislike a particular frag. I'm attracted to Metaphore wj because of the patchouli as well as its anabolic tendencies. And of course I try to only buy string edts or edps. Long lasting is my MOJO.

[@simonsays9031]

Promising brand from Romania. I appreciate the deal with real noses instead of machines as they claim in their homepage. The design is tacky and needs upgrade, but all the releases sound risk taker what I highly admire. As I myself don't like aquatic and too animalic notes, Metaphore WJ is up my alley as well. Cheers from Hungary.

Wow! That’s exactly what I like about your reviews, now and always: honest and described with clear, valid points! It’s really helpful, since it’s not accesible to sample these fragrances, even to the Romanians, as I am Romanian as well. I would like to try Lilyn, for its refinement and florals; sounds the most befit for a woman out of the three. Country of residence: Oman. Kudos!

[@flaviuscalaj3796]

Hello. The samples are available on the oficial website 😳, and at every oficial reseller of Calaj Perfume. This was from the Day One when all was released. Of course, are available samples from the perfumes wich are still in production right now. From those who are sold out...i dont have from where to offer samples. So, i dont know why you said the samples are not available not even for Romanians 😁🤗
