[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Uh I don't think so and I have never reviewed these fragrances before!

[@horatio737]

Seal of Light I don’t think Chanel is ever going to pay for any influencers to promote their fragrance

[@horatio737]

Seal of Light So you re suggesting that he is not doing reviews of fragrances(that’s already in his collection) that’s suggested by the viewers?

[@armandoguillen9214]

I'm a man, I wear No.19, and I'm proud of it. I find it specially suited for difficult negotiations and days in Court.

[@armandoguillen9214]

@M D Yes, I'm a lawyer. Even if I have little care for people's opinion on perfume, it is important to consider what kind of situations you will be facing. I prefer cold and bitter fragrances such as greens or chypres when in court, specially if it's the first hearing. Those are great if you want to appear aloof. Soapy, clean scents for meetings at the office and spicy orientals when closing negotiations or whenever I want to present myself as friendly, with an inviting attitude. Technically speaking, your perfume can send a message, just like your attire and your body language do. Just be careful with the amount of sprays, as you do not want to offend anyone, let alone a judge.

[@armandoguillen9214]

@M D I would suggest Chanel's No.19 and Cristalle EDP. Both very serious, aloof, and assertive. Uptight, if you will. Coriandre by Jean Couturier is an elegant spicy rose chypre, but somehow refreshing. It reads as polished, well educated but not easy to decipher, and it is a very affordable fragrance. Prada has plenty of clean, soapy yet smart and interesting options, such as Infusion d'Iris, and Ambre pour homme could be an interesting choice for a woman. Serge Lutens L'Orpheline is a cold, poetic yet profoundly melancholic incense deprived of sweetness. It does sit very close to the skin and will never bother anyone. It is what I would wear if I was mourning for an injustice. If the tone is a bit more relaxed, I would suggest a floral. Perhaps a carnation or an orange blossom.

[@andreaspetrou9296]

Also great for an osteopath, especially since we are in very close contact with patients.

[@RobertSK931]

Great comments. I just ordered mine. I am a man to. Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪

@Ramón Jurado Borrero The horrible outlook on things comes with being a jurist.

[@amyallison574]

I met my husband whilst wearing Chanel 19 parfum. I still love it, and him.

[@michannamurphy44]

I’ve been wanting Chanel 19 Poudre for almost 8 years and you know what?? This video is confirmation that I should finally pull the trigger!

[@xXxXxCGPBxXxXx]

Just what I said also! 💞

[@phyllischan3696]

Same here😂

[@michelingoglia7388]

I think this is a completely Unisex fragrance, I have the EDP and the EDT. Absolutely mesmerising.

[@faisalkhan1026]

absolutely I am addicted to its scent.

[@georgemonde8237]

Just got it for my mom

[@diannemurray]

This was made FOR Coco Chanel and is named for her birthday August 19th. It went unreleased and was worn only by her until the end of her life when they launched it. The parfum is amazing and very long lasting.

[@rachelfrombefore]

I love the poudre version. It’s almost like cool, dewy spring air after the lawn’s been cut but with powder lol.

[@KymmieColorado]

I'm happy to see No19 get some recognition! It's my signature scent and I love it. My boyfriend loves it too and wears it sometimes. I think it's definitely unisex. Beautiful beautiful fragrance.

[@taffyj531]

So happy to see this review! Chanel No 19 will always be in my collection. The vintage parfum is especially a love. Entirely unisex.

[@julietteespinosa5914]

My grandma wore it, then my mom wore it and because of them I wear it even though I'm in my 40s it's a big love for me. Thank you for reviewing another excellent feminine fragrance.

[@RedSonya4]

I’ve been wearing No. 19 since 1984, when I bought the refillable cologne. I still have some cologne from when I worked for Chanel, but I’m about to buy the EDP. I also have and love Poudre, but the original 19 is still my favorite. And I miss the bars of soap!

[@Nubianette]

I got it at the end of 1983. I also had the refill. 😊

[@jasperdrak]

I'm male and I'm obsessed with No. 19 - particularly the Poudre and pure parfum variations. The latter is absolutely glorious and I can't get enough of it. The green notes are intense, but it is so smooth and perfectly blended. And (bonus for me) is has NO lily of the valley accord kicking about. Absolute perfection. My No. 1 (see what I did there?).

[@jedgar4219]

I love the original - wore it years ago - I wore it in my early 20s.... Today - 30 years later I discovered No 19 poudre and I bought 2 bottles! I just love it so much! Love the "green" fragrance. I am not a fan of No5 but I do enjoy Gabrielle. Thanks for you review.

[@Karalana19]

I love your review of my most favourite perfume of all time -Chanel 19, with a sadness however. Yes it is still a beautiful fragrance but I have worn this since the 1980's and if you love this fragrance now , believe me - the original and earlier formulations would have blown you away.

[@julie3058]

I have worn Chanel 19 for 30 years. I am in love with this fragrance! I now use the Eau de Parfum version, having previously used the Eau de Toilette. I have a bottle on my countertop and a spare in the drawer! I hope to never be without this fragrance. I absolutely love it!

[@SusanMacGillivray]

Thank you! My NY resolution was to wear No 19 again as I haven't worn it in a dozen or more years and it used to be my signature scent. I was so excited to purchase the EDT on New Years Day and begin my return to what I love so deeply. My birthday is also on the 19th and my mother originally used to give this to me as a gift on all special occasions. She has since passed, so I feel as though she was turning my nose in the No 19 direction once again. I feel so rich and divine wearing it.

[@kellytaylor6651]

The parfum version of 19 is what got me into Chanel fragrances. I received a parfum coffret as a gift. Never cared for No 5 until I tried the parfum. The No 19 parfum to me is the most like a Chypre. Technically its not until you get to the drydown, but it is fantastic! Lots of Galbanum and Iris are there, and the drydown is a little musky with oakmoss, vetiver and cedar. More green than floral. More dry than sweet. I agree about the dauber style bottles though. I did knock over one of the bottles and lose all its contents. Luckily it was Allure, so no great loss.

[@xXxXxCGPBxXxXx]

I own a fair bit of CHANEL but this has always escaped me... this video has changed that. What an exquisite green color. I really enjoy your knowledge base and I always enjoy these CHANEL videos! 💞

[@Nubianette]

This was my 1st “good” perfume. It was supposed to be my birthday gift when I turned 19, but my mom got it for me at 17 since I would be graduating from high school, and senior prom was coming up. I had the brushed sliver refill with the gold band. My sister threw it away because it was empty. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I never thought of it as bitter, but I loved how airy it was. I haven’t worn it in 30 years, but went through 2-3 bottles. I’m not sure if it was the perfume or the toilette.

[@faisalkhan1026]

I'm an addict of chanel no. 19, can't get enough of this smell. I am a male and wear it so often. I love this perfume it's so underrated summer perfume that suprisingly no one talks about. You have to try this once in a lifetime and you'll raise lots of eyebrows in a good way ! it has good performance and sillage. Highly recommended.

[@mariemkhmiri7928]

Do you think the edp version of Chanel n 19 is a nice scent for women ?

[@leiasleeping1282]

My favorite youtuber reviewed my favorite fragrance omg！and please do more videos about green notes if possible, I’m obsessed with greens.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

More to come!

[@olgaushina5021]

I got no. 19 at age of 19 and it formed my perfume preferences. It is always a gold standard for me. In terms of prominent Galbanum note I consider Bel Respiro as a very close relative to no.19. As well as Goodsir's Nuit de Bakelite is more like a contemporary crazy granddaughter. It would be great to see your Galbanum note selection! I am really looking forward to seeing it!

[@Cicelyize]

This is a spectacular perfume and the best of Chanel. I sincerely hope they don’t mess up the formula and start filling it up with iso-e or similar aromachems that Chanel likes so much. That would be a sacrilege! Like you Sebastian this was my point of reference for galbanum and sparked my interest in other galbanum perfumes.

[@Tomatohater64]

I've worn the EDP many times before and love it. Any deep green fragrances are right in my ballpark. The ivy here is slightly reminiscent of Imaginary Authors' The Soft Lawn, which I love so much I could bathe in it.

[@kikirover1]

A very little spray of the original no 19 EDP before going to bed…..feels so cozy….🥰🥰🥰

[@sophialee2630]

When I was a teenager I wore Chanel No 19 toilette in 1977. I don’t remember what it smells like today. I should check it out, the toilette and the perfume.

[@drstranger7430]

I wish they don't EVER discontinue this! I'm male and inlove with this scent.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Woo awesome!!

[@StealthAudrey]

great detailed review! I loved no 19 when I had a sample years ago and have always wanted a full bottle . Will need to revisit this one again. Thanks for the review of this more feminine leaning (though unisex also) fragrance line.

[@kathywitter6076]

Thank you for showcasing No 19. It doesn't get as much love but as some others but I think it's awesome. I have a vintage edt in the grey casing and it holds it still smells refreshing and holds it's own in comparison with the modern poudre.

[@phyllisiervello]

I have all four versions of Chanel No. 19, including a tiny bottle of the extract. I have had three of them for years and the more recent Poudre version when it first came out. The Poudre version is my very favorite and if I had to pick a signature scent, it would be Chanel No. 5 Poudre. Thanks for this video and especially for mentioning the Poudre, which seems to be quite ignored even by Chanel lovers, who seem to prefer the extract or EDP, but once the Poudre came out, that is the one I prefer.

[@merengue9791]

My mother has always been a Guerlain lady wearing sometimes Chanel but mainly Guerlain. All of my brothers have their own special fragrances a scent that came out around the time when one of my brothers was born. Mine is Samsara 😀. But her choice when she wants to wear Chanel in No 5 and No19. On the other hand my godmother is a Chanel girl she has been wearing No19 edp for ages...... And every day even if she is at home and cooking beef stew..... No19 is iconic and great. Sometimes I steal it from my mom and put in it the car on a small leather patch to scent the car

[@georginapeyton4343]

Glad you did this video, yes I asked you several times and it was time and very happy. I love this collection and it's one of the absolute best.

[@nickgee7291]

yessss finally a HD well made video of n19! thanks so much!!

[@eb7694]

Love and own No.19 in all it's iterations. I have been wearing it (and No. 5) for decades and always will.

[@rezounours9628]

I used to be a big fan of the poudre version! And you remind me of that. Now I think I would prefer the edp Love love n19

[@scentobsession3418]

I'm obsessed with 19, got the EDP and love it.

[@Savage-ky8gx]

I knew I had worn Chanel No.19 when I was a lot younger, but I could not remember what it smelled like until you described it. And the memory of the scent exploded in my brain. I literally could smell that scent in my head and that was from probably close to 40 years ago! I really need to get some and smell it again because I think it would be such a fabulous summer scent. I'll have to see if it smells the same now, after, as you said, probably several reformulations. Thanks for the memories!

[@MattRyanPA]

I've just discovered No.19 today in my local BOOTS. Oh my.. It's wonderful! Will be buying in Paris next year. I love the green notes - reminded me a little of Creed Original Vetiver. Thanks for a great review 👏

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

So good and green!!

[@thomasa.243]

Uhh, Chanel No. 19 has turned 50 last year yet I still think that it smells modern and unique. And I just noticed that Chanel No. 5 turn 100 years this year. Fragrances that are sold for that long of a time and still best seller. Respect from me...

[@tally1604]

Both have been reformulated heavily, though. Still in the same ballpark, but not the same as at their inception, far from it.

[@sailaabdullasaleh5278]

19 was the first chanel I used and I still love it with almost every chanel perfumes even the les exclusif chanel fragrances is the gem in my collection

[@Mona-mr1cd]

I bought the Chanel 19 EDP and like it for the spring. ... it’s not usually something that I’d gravitate to as an everyday but wanted to try something different. Most Chanel is long lasting for me, minus the Chance collection... the 19 is definitely earthy as you mentioned. It dries down softly and a lil powdered like you mentioned. Glad you did this video! And I can also see it being unisex too!

[@JuttaBerlin]

I wire Chanel 19 in the 80ies and now have rediscovered this fragrance for me. I also recently bought Rive Gauche by YSL and Shocking You by Schiaparelli which also were very famous in the 90ies. They smell kind of old-fashioned I think it's the aldehyde but I still love them - they are great.

[@HeleneKremer]

Happy to find this video! I was lucky to be introduced to 19 when I was a sophomore in high school in the 80’s. Was my fave forever and I still reach for it today. 19 Poudre is addictive. Went through my first bottle in 2017.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

That is awesome!

[@ergastiripetra1209]

#19 is my favorite scent of all times ! i have EDT,POUDRE ,perfume and soap ...i have to acquire EDP some day... EDT is my favorite. Its very addictive and very unique .

[@Alli8833]

No 19 eau de parfum is my #1 go-to fragrance. I love it!

[@debrashulman362]

I love the EDT version and tend to wear it in the Spring. I need to try the EAU DE PARFUM POUDRE!

[@elllapryde7828]

It doesn't last on the skin at all :(

[@lesliejennifer4741]

The best ever, I love it and have all four versions for different moods.

[@drstranger7430]

Plsss make a review on each!! Cheers!

[@goddessnocturnas]

Mmmmm! Galbanum magic! I would super excited to see you do a video on this note because it's a stunner.

[@patrickclesen7554]

I wear the edp as my signature fragrance I love the way this stuff smells

[@ginnyginiver]

Sebastian, this is one of my all time greats, I'm absolutely in love with it. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on one of my faves, great video

[@tst8959]

I love #19! Went through a 50 ml EDT & just today got a 100 ml EDP. ❤

[@barcyorky]

I have adored No 19 since my Mother bought me my first bottle for my 19th Birthday. I too love the galbanum, it’s the beautiful smell of the freshest of mornings in a newly stocked florist shop for me. Divine ❤️

[@Hollyfae]

Wow! I love 19 so much, but have only ever had edp decants and haven't worn it in a few years. Somehow I had no idea that there was a poudre version. I have to get my hands on this immediately! I've never smelled 19 on a man, but it would be incredible. Very unisex.

[@samipah]

I have and wear all four and love each at different times.

[@babbes4210]

I have the poudre version and still need to develop my nose and try out the original version. In summer i wear both chanel 19 poudre and Prada infusion de iris who are quite similar but not entirely the same. Where prada is soft easy and linear, chanel 19 poudre is complex changing and extra green because of that hit of greenness.

[@JONATHAN-db2ry]

19 is one of my favorites i have samples of vintages of the edt...edp...and the Parfum which is my favorite i will add a first edition 19 Parfum to my collection some day its amazing thanks for this feature Sebastian maybe one day you could feature the Parfum version ✌

[@tishratcliff9601]

No.19 is my signature fragrance. I’ve worn it most of my life. The EDP is closer to the original ‘70s formula, and my favorite concentration. I’m not a fan of Poudre. I don’t understand why, but I’ve had other women tell me it smells like bug spray. It develops very powdery on me.

[@virginiaflynn2511]

My absolute favorite perfume from age 19 and I have a huge collection. I have always loved this green floral perfume

[@virginiaflynn2511]

I have all 3 types of Chanel 19 last bottle I got it in Paris so it has been a true love all my adult life.

[@a_2010x]

I smelled 2 of these (EDT & EDP) at a Duty Free and loved them. I found them to be unisex.

[@geraldinewallspapantoniou840]

One of my absolute favourites.. I live in Greece so in the hot summers I alternate this with cristalle vert, Guerlain Bergamot vetiver, and eau d' Hadrien.

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

A perennial favourite. I haven’t warmed to the poudre version. I have had this since 1978. Chanel bath products are stunning BTW. I have several vintages of every incarnation. It is a unisex classic.

[@MillieonaVespa]

❤️ No 19 .. a lifelong favourite along with No5

[@holly939]

Green Perfumes are my favorite! I love all the iterations of NO. 19 and have been wearing it since 1976. I would love to see you review more green perfumes - it seems to me that genre is often overlooked. Green Spell from Eris is a phenomenal new extremely green fragrance and I'd love to know what you think of that one.

[@trudakeane165]

Vent Vert (the original) was the most wonderful green fragrance ever! And then it was reformulated and ruined. Why do they do that to classic masterpieces? Christopher

[@evduavit]

I have been wearing Chanel No. 19 EDT since I was 19. My alternative perfume is Prada Infusion Fleur d’Orangeur.

[@ahmedelgezla3113]

Galbanum is very great note. I think this flanker for women .l never think to try it anytime.

[@hollyshaw3148]

Also I blind bought Reminiscence Patchouli because of you and just got it today and I’m obsessed with it! Love at first spray♥️♥️

[@homevidomemory]

I love N19...I discovered it a few years ago when I was looking for a scent that was launched in 1970, my birth year. I have both the edt and poudre, and poudre is my favorite! Love your videos!

[@tanaurbankova1218]

I love Chanel No.19 edt, but my fav is Cristalle which is not mentioned at all by youtubers.

[@merjaymermanph]

Hi sir. My sister gave this to me. The EDT version. She doesn’t like it. For me i like it. Its so classy. Its so sophisticated. Im a man and definitely ill wear this.

[@jdimon8717]

Out of the 3 you mentioned, I only own the EDP version (and I love it, but not as much as the discontinued soap that I keep in my dresser); I do have a 25-year old vintage Parfum of 19 and it is DIVINE. It's completely different from my EDP.

[@ichuze7312]

I wish I had the original version. The formula was changed in 2012. When Ifra changed all of the fragrances and added a lot of synthetic ingredients.

[@tst8959]

I had the EDT & now am angling for the EDP! It’s such a lovely fragrance.

[@tahina9686]

This has been my perfume for 15 years, love it as much as day one! I wore the EDT in my 30s and now the EDP which I find more feminine and complex. Never got the perfume concentration for the same reason as you. Not sure it’s a must have. Have you tried Cristalle EDP from the same line? Also green and feminine. I would recommend it for younger people, as n°19 is more difficult to wear very young.

[@legrhm7212]

I love galbanum and Chanel 19. Looking forward to your video on galbanum in perfumes, Im sure it will be great. Have Dalia in it.

[@Floydwellian]

I am not male and Chanel Nº 19 EDT is the only bottle of Chanel I own. And it rocks. It will rock even more when spring and summer arrive... Some "youngsters" I've been around tend not to like it but what do they know?... one day I will try the EDP.

[@Floydwellian]

Still haven't splashed out for the EDP and now prices are even higher...I used Coco Noir lotion under Chanel Nº 19 EDT today. Very interesting combination. But it toned down the sharpness a lot.

[@anastasiaa4372]

Hi Sebastian! No 19 EDP is one of my favorite fragrances! I have not tried the other two. Thanks for another great review!

[@hollyshaw3148]

Oh nice I’ve been wanting this one!! Never smelt it before but it sounds like something I would love!!

[@carolhitchcock6569]

My favourite Chanel. Love and own all versions. You need to try the Parfum ❤

[@sibyl333]

You are reminding me I probably need this! Update, 10 minutes later: I am so bad! I just ordered the EDP from Mercari- pretty good deal.. I chose the straight up EDP but I was also considering the Poudré. Hope that was the right choice, at least for now:-)

[@mephistofeles72]

I like the eau de Parfum Poudrée more than No 5, Coco Mademoiselle EDP and the Chance line. The one I like more then No 19 Poudrée is Coromandel from the Exclusive Line. Thank you for that interesting video with the differences between this three.

[@NB_Wildflower]

I wear 19EDP, and occasionally layer it with Cristalle Eau Vert to give it some powdery warmth.

[@viggenone]

Never tried Chanel No. 19, will do after watching your video. Thank you Sebastian!

[@vanessacheung7781]

Seriously i am a big fan of Chanel No. 19 EDP and Chanel Cristalle EDP (both are luxurious green notes from Chanel) more than the over-rated Chanel No. 5 which i own a bottle too... 😘

[@Mandalapray]

The poudre and prada infusion d'iris was my favorite iris perfume, but now I kind of graduated from the league and is favoring more metallic iris such as Iris Silver mist.

[@israelgarciajr9679]

Guy here and love No 19 where it is just to say it wonderful fragrance green and beautiful.

[@rouquindunord8420]

The nose behind N°19 EDP is Jacques Polge and it was launched like many EDP's in the 80es, not the early 70es.

[@azorriaanandh5667]

Wonderful video thank you for going into all the details just ordered no19 perfume ✨✨✨✨✨ soldddddd 🙏🏾

[@pattorelli3451]

If I could only have one perfume for the rest of my life, it would be No 19 edp.

[@carolbeebe7897]

I wore this every day ... the Eau de Parfum ... in the late 70s and 80s. I adored it. I moved to spicy scents as I matured. I’d like to try it again. Is it the same now or has it been reformulated? It gets musky? And the poudre gets more musky? Surprised!

[@trob9100]

I bought the EDP and can barely smell anything on my skin. I don't know what's going on. I have to put my whole face into my arm. Considering a return/refund.

[@Tina-wi7we]

I love no 19 in cold weather. I have not tried the edt or poudre, but really want to.

[@brionb1346]

Addicted to Iris perfume for a longtime , think of galbanum I think of Cachet Prince Matchabelli . Love Chanel 19 Poudre and considering on repurchasing it again in any form.. Yeah I am a guy and I love the stuff

[@Mz.M.2757]

Thank you for reviewing! Surprisingly I have been reaching for my Chanel 19 a little more than I thought the dry down is AMAZING. I will try grabbing for my Diptyque Philosykos as well! It is just sitting there collecting dust and feeling unloved. LOL --Thank you again, I LOVE your fragrance reviews and have made several blind buy niche purchases after watching your reviews on them whereas I may have been skeptical prior!

[@ruthannemackinnon588]

I love No19 & if you love galbanum you'll likely love Lancome Climat, Revlon Jontue & Jacomo Silences and don't forget Chanel Cristalle eau vert! Great for summer heat

[@namratasiwakoti3271]

19 was the first chanel i used and i loveed it❤❤

[@raymondgilliland7187]

I’m thinking about buy one for my Collection. N. 19

[@Monika67959]

Chanel 19 Poudre is must have for me!

[@jmorbeauty]

I like it, I smell the vetiver more though, I prefer the Poudre. I'm going to get a full bottle of the Poudre.

[@gwynnlinn1133]

I count #19 as a lifelong favorite, though I have not worn it since forever. Quite a nostalgic scent for me...wild days! I am curious what the other scents remind you of it?

[@mermish4]

I layer no 19 with armani my way parfum 2023 (not eau de parfum) which amps up the iris and gives sweetness and brings it up to date in a totally refined way

[@TheArteditors]

male here, I owned no19 poudre. wonderful spicy, powdery, dandy very unisex. others found it too bitter and far too spicy, so what? nice one.
