Guerlain RANKED Family Portrait!

[@Justin_theTsar]

Hey Rams,i ended up having a conversation with the Guerlain boutique manager at Saks fifth avenue ,hes doing a Q&A with Thierry Wasser and he promised to ask him a question for me and i asked him to ask Mr Wasser if there was any truth to the fact that they were going to bring back Derby for limited edition. He promised he would ask. He said sadly it didn't sell well and its all about the numbers but hed ask anyway. Anyway I just thought it was cool that I was able to talk to him and he promised that for me. I'm excited for an answer.

[@RamseytheRam]

Nice! Do let me know what he comes back with 💪🐏

[@Justin_theTsar]

@@RamseytheRam I definitely will. But sadly it will most likely be that they probably won't because it won't sell ,but we can hope.

Chanel at least still puts out great perfume, while Guerlain just reformulates everything to the point it’s garbage.

[@stinkomalenko]

I have Vetiver and Heritage in both the "listerine" bottles and the new L'Homme Ideal-style bottles and they smell exactly the same to my nose. People in this hobby go crazy with reformulation hysteria and it's so tiresome. The atomizers on the new bottles completely trounce the "listerine" bottle atomizers, so I consider the new bottles an overall win. Awesome video as always, Ramsey!

[@scp5577]

Wow - I can imagine what hard work it was to review all these wonderful and classic Guerlains - (my favorite house) - and then ranking them as well! Thanks, Ramsey. We do appreciate you. I think numbers of people have that reaction to the jasmine that you talk about but I am one of those for whom Samsara EDP is my all time favorite sandlewood - of all the sandalwoods - including the Chanels. Being an American of Indian heritage - and having had the privilege of traveling in India many many times - I can offer two things to the conversation. 1. India and Indians to me is not / are not as "spiritual" as so many westerners find it - it is a country full of folks like any other with struggles like any other - but India is to me - the ultimate olfactory experience. It's unique smells are what make India unique. And so - Samsara - to me - is a transporting, spiritual experience. What I think Guerlain intended to arrive at with this classic scent - is exactly what I get - it is the essence of any given Indian palace or temple or even prayer altar in any given private home - at dawn or at dusk - and the smell of ancient books - ancient dried flowers - and ancient, burning wood. Samsara to me is my early early childhood - in a bottle.

Guerlain vol de nuit extrait is beautiful, right up your street Ramsey. To my nose it smells completely different to the edt, it has a mesmerising violet leaf which gives it that gasoline vibe reminiscent of Fahrenheit. I would say it's quite masculine compared to the edt. I have a 7.5 ml spray version with a blue and white porcelain style bottle. Extremely good perfume.

[@nathanielmoody3656]

Question about vintages, Ram…so o bought a vintage mini of Habit Rouge, and it seems the citrus has died off. So, when people recommend older bottles, hasn’t the fragrance degraded(at least citruses being more volatile)? So wouldn’t it make more sense to buy newer bottles?

[@RamseytheRam]

It depends on the state it was stored... the older bottles usually have different formulas and ingredients than what is being used now a days But the top notes can degraded especially citrus notes which are usually the first to go if not stored properly

It is a very hard task to rank guerlain perfumes, but for me this list isn't complete without "jardins de bagatelle" from 1983, and "champs elysees" from a decade later, two of the most beautiful florals ever created. Yesterday i smelled l'instant for women edp in the original version, and was amazed by the good quality of the ingredients. (While the composition is less to my taste, so i hesitated to buy it)

[@RamseytheRam]

Yes you are spot on... but this is not a complete list but a list of Guerlains but rather a ranking of Guerlains in my collection 😊

[@JT-rx1eo]

I've finally gotten all the way through this survey of Guerlain. Wow, I have barely scratched the surface of Guerlain. I have Vetiver, Heritage, Habit Rouge, Homme, Homme Intense, Homme L'eau Boisée, L'Instant de Guerlain, Mouchoir de Monsieur, L'Homme Ideal L'Intense. I've managed to put my nose briefly on L'Heure Bleu, Mitsouko, Shalimar and Samsara. I loved the classic smell of L'Heure Bleu and Shalimar, and thought Samsara smelled "medicinal", although that might have been due to it having turned. I haven't even gotten my nose on Jicky yet. Little afraid of the animalic intensity of it, but I will probably seek a full bottle for historical reasons. I do enjoy just a slight, very slight, "halitosis" vibe of some 1980's fragrances like Floris Elite (1980), Lancome Sagamore (1986) and even to a lesser degree Tiffany for Men (1989). No civet notes listed in any of them so I'm not sure if it's the characteristics of the musk or maybe something like animalis, which I think was some commercially available material used by perfumers back then. Anyway, I've got a long way to go with Guerlain. I'll probably never get my nose on the discontinued Derby or Le Frenchy. Although I just got a just got a clone of Le Frenchy. So far my favorite Guerlains are Vetiver, Heritage, L'Instant de Guerlain. Love the history of the early 20th century classic "feminine" Guerlain's (L'Heure Bleu, Mitsouko, Shalimar, Vol de Nuit) and their iconic position in perfumery. The Homme line is way to faint a performer for me, with L'eau Boisée being more substantial and to my liking. L'Homme Ideal L'Intense is nice but too modern for my tastes to be a favorite. Vetiver is THE reference vetiver. Best there ever was. And the most influential vetiver. Hope I can find a vintage bottle. Fantastic survey of the House of Guerlain! Best in media again.

[@RamseytheRam]

Now I need to find a vintage Mitsuoko . The bottle I have from a few yrs ago is not all that great. I also need to find an old Chergui. I have a newer bottle of it and its been reformulated, it’s weak. What I don’t like about Serge Lutens bottles is that they are screw top and ppl can easily mess with it. I like a sealed bottle.

So my first impressions is a bit of disappointment tbh. It's basically just a slightly less sweet version of the edp maybe on par with the sweetness of the extreme version and I didn't get that strong bold opening people were raving about (The whole reason for wanting to try it). It by no means smells terrible but it's basically just too similar to the edp for my liking. My guess is I got unlucky and received a decant from the newer bottles which is supposed to be weaker than the black bottle version but I also don't care enough to seek out the black bottles to test that for myself.

@@RamseytheRam can you describe the packaging of your version: zig zag box? or gold label?

[@TKK765]

Interestingly, fresh check says that your version 9TO2 is 2019. Mine is 2012, and I checked because I got the packaging in collaboration with Kuntzel + Daygas. smells richer than the currently selling versions and the juice is darker in color. Lasts pretty long, and projects well for the first 3 hours.

i would add 2 hidden gems wich i love very much Chamdae pur homme and Arsene Lupin Dandy

[@RamseytheRam]

Never smelled either! I hope to one day as they are on my Guerlain wish list to sniff 🐽 Thanks so much for watching Ali 🍻

I'M PUTTIN SHALIMAR EDP IN THA DRIVER'S SEAT & ENCENS MYTHIQUE IZ RIDING SHOTGUN LOL...ITZ HARD 2 RANK SO MANY MASTERPIECES

[@RamseytheRam]

😂😂😂 I knew Encens Mythique would be up there for you 🍻

[@7force990]

The only Guerlain i had was Shalimar but i sold it-it's hard for me to deal with the civet note. Castoreum smells more mild and i will probably go for Antaeus :)

Glad you are watching my older videos... I have put out so much content this year but some people only watch the new stuff... hell the old stuff is where it is at sometimes 😂😂😂

[@johannahhuttenstone]

@@RamseytheRam well, yeah. You are younger than me I presume, but you seem to have an older nose. I only started finding perfume I that I liked in May. So I’m a “new to perfume I like” kind of nose.

[@RamseytheRam]

My advice to you is never sell your perfume... even if you hate it... set it aside to revisit it .... there are so many frags I hated that I now Love 😁

[@johannahhuttenstone]

@@RamseytheRam 100%!…Except Herod, I’ll let that one go. 😂

[@RamseytheRam]

I still wear Herod! Even though its waaayyy to sweet for my taste today i really like the tobacco note in it... but tobacco is an easy sell for me soooo 🤷‍♂️😂😂😂

[@992turbos]

Sous Le Vent is another one I would recommend seeking out a sample/decant of. It has a very unique kind of sweet pea note.

[@RamseytheRam]

Nice! I heard about it before... but never privaleged enough to sniff it 🙏🙏

[@gefei-geoffrey-li]

this is a video i have been waiting for. brilliant👍. I personally prefer mitsouko to sharlama. unfortunately my habitrouge and heritage are both red cap bottles from around 2018 which simply not satisfactory. I know I can expect much more from vintage bottles.

Guerlain should be ashamed of themselves for selling such garbage. Mitsuoko is nothing but a ghost of what it was. It’s now watered down so much that all u smell is alcohol, they reformulate everything . If it cost 5c it would be too expensive. Pretty much everything Guerlain has released in the past 10 years has been garbage. They’re the kings of reformulation. I wouldn’t buy anything Guerlain has released in the past 7-10 yrs. And Mitsuoko, only vintage before 1995.

[@RamseytheRam]

Vintage Mitsouko is soooo good ... i have a few old bottles coming... cant wait 🙂

[@francoisegury]

Absolument d’accord avec cela. Les grands chefs d’œuvre de Guerlain sont l’ombre d’eux-mêmes, méconnaissables et les nouvelles créations ne leur arrivent pas à la cheville. Juste du marketing bavard et tape à l’œil et de l’emballage.

[@LEgoiste]

Guerlain! Is this even possible??

[@RamseytheRam]

😂😂😂 Took me some time but I did it... impossibly hard to rank the best perfume house of all time 😍

[@LEgoiste]

@@RamseytheRam There's so many of theirs that are discontinued that would knock most of their current line out of the park. If only? ...

[@RamseytheRam]

I know ... there are so many old Guerlains I have never smelled that go for 1000s now... plus I have never smelled many of the Extraits like L'Heure Bleue Extrait, Mitsouko Extrait, Vol de Nuit Extrait etc.... maybe one day🙏🙏🙏

Jacques Guerlain, the builder of olfactory dreams!!

[@RamseytheRam]

Indeed! He really is the master... maybe the best perfumer of all time ? 🤔

[@timw8228]

You're in luck. There was a Metallica ebay listing yesterday that I saw. At $2600 I said "oh h*** no". The new limited release of Shalimar, Guerlain should have limited purchases to 1 per person at $124. I see eBay sellers who must have bought 20 bottles and one seller listed them at $179. Again I said "oh h*** no" you keep it.

[@RamseytheRam]

Its still there ... that guy is smoking crack 😂

[@timw8228]

@@RamseytheRam It's good but not that great for that price. It looks to have been opened and used. The freshness escaped. LOL Guerlain has a new limited one named Imagine for $650. No telling what those will show up on eBay for.
