My take on the 1990 release by the house of Chanel Egoiste Pour Homme which is a classy warm spicy vanilla scent which is best for formal evening wear in my opinion. Instagram: K_cavella88

Great review! Egoiste and actually Platinum Egoiste are my 2 favorites! They are so very different…Platinum is fresh, clean and perfect for office setting. Egoiste is spicy, smooth and calming. Absolutely LOVE them both! Jacque Polge at his BEST!!!!

I really love the original, platinum has the metallic side that I am not that crazy about. Regardless they both have made a name for themselves. Thank you for watching and commenting Jeffrey !

Great video! A KZbinr who agrees that Égoïste is amazing, I subscribed! The dry down is amazing, isn’t it? The rose is present until the very end, but it becomes more and more subtle, slowly melting into my very favorite part of the dry down: the creamy and smooth, but paradoxically dry and woody, vanilla-y finish. This stage is truly divine!

This is a true masterpiece that's timeless. In fact, Jacques Polge, its creator, said this is his favorite creation of all. I used to own Egoiste Eau de Toilette Concentree in the early 90s and I really miss it. It was much more potent and richer. I'd jump on it if Chanel brings it back.

No, platinum egoist is not a nice parfum and lacks character. Platinum egoist was only invented to cater to the poor taste of rubes and boost sales. I understand it; you also have Prada who decided that they should put their print on tracksuits. It is all about the marketing and sales. However, not for me.
