My TOP 10 Perfumes - Vol. 13

[@mayankparekh8565]

hello. after having 450 perfumes, i am saying this : THIS MAN HAS THE BEST TASTE IN THE WHOLE KZbinR FRATERNITY. Yes, i am declaring this man, the best taste and nose person among all youtubers and content creaters on youtube, all reviewers of youtube.

[@TheScentinel]

Wow! Thank you so much for the very kind words. I appreciate it.

[@FRD-HDD]

Great compliment, but tastes are just that, tastes. There is no good or bad, best or worst.

[@filipperinic]

@@FRD-HDD Would disagree, taste has its own place in the world, it shows so much about people choice. So yeah although someone will say its totally subjective, when you tried 90 per cent of fragrance worth in community and have your own direction is utter to say it matters to present it and argument it.

[@zenttofrizzy8479]

@@FRD-HDD read edmond roudniska, he’s the greatest parfumeur of all time and he said there’s good taste and bad taste

[@FST0p]

Totally agree 👍 keep going Pep

[@petererickson1259]

Thank you for letting me know about Patrick! Such a lovely fragrance and you can’t beat the price ! One of my new favorites

[@pattorelli3451]

I wore The Afternoon of a Faun yesterday, and Seville a l’Aube is one of my favorites, too. One of the few I bought a back-up bottle of, and I’m glad I have it now! Thank you for a great video 😊.

[@TheScentinel]

Very happy to read you like those. Thank you

[@900miniatureponies]

Lovely to see Pia's Gilded perfume here, I enjoy the candle, I should try the perfume, it has 3 of my favourite notes, Frankincense, Carnation and Labdanum. We were colleagues in another life at Lush. She's lovely.

[@TheScentinel]

Oh, Pia is just one of the best people I am lucky to know. Thanks for watching, Genevieve.

[@richardfisher8460]

Hey. i am looking for something that smells like Denim Aftershave but lasts as well, I have tried Bogart Signature, One Man Show Gold edition, Jaguar for Men, Denim EDT cant find the frosted bottle. Any you know of?

[@TheScentinel]

@@richardfisher8460 I wish I could help, but I am not familiar with Denim

[@richardfisher8460]

[@TheScentinel]

@richardfisher8460 nah, just have never seen it here.

[@FST0p]

I've been following your channel for quite some time now, and I've purchased a few bottles based on your recommendations. I already have the Guerlains on your list, but after watching this video, I couldn't resist ordering a full 120ml bottle of 1740 and a sample of Gilded Boujee Bougies. Now, I'm eagerly waiting for the mailman! 😂 On a side note, I'm beyond excited-I just managed to snag an OG release of Tom Ford Oud Minérale in a 250ml bottle. I absolutely *love* it, along with Noir Anthracite. Now, I'm on the hunt for a 250ml bottle of Tobacco Oud, unless you have a better recommendation? I already have Creed Royal Oud, so that one doesn’t count 😊

[@TheScentinel]

@@FST0p they should last you forever😊

[@Atif_Ph.D._Kate_Bush_Fan_Club]

Please leave the names of the perfumes on for longer. They only appear for around 2 seconds. This is way too short. Check out other perfume reviewers videos. I do like the style of font you use and their style. Also I don’t have a single one of these perfumes so I love the fact you have chosen these. I’m now researching these on Fragrantica for future purchases! ❤️

[@TheScentinel]

I'll remember for next time. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@Atif_Ph.D._Kate_Bush_Fan_Club]

@@TheScentinelNo worries brother. Love the video and these are all new perfumes to me. So thank you for these new perfume ideas for new purchases. ❤️

[@michaelharness3258]

❤ you are looking great! Nice to see you back.

[@TheScentinel]

Thank you, Michael

[@saulgoo2334]

I can totally relate to wearing a fragrance that elevates your mood and affects your personality throughout your day. For me that cologne is Bowling Green by Geoffrey Beene. After that it is Happy for men by Clinique, and Agua Brava by Antonio Puig. My sincere compliments for not mentioning compliments! It seems you care about fragrances for the best reasons. Thank you for elevating the world of fragrance content.

[@TheScentinel]

Thank you. I maybe get one compliment a year, so i'd be lying if i talled about compliments

[@michael_galicia]

We share a crossover of likes and loves. But what I enjoy most on your channel Pep, and what I'm learning from you, is how to curate my fragrance collection. I'm slowly thinning through the ones I don't wear and replacing them carefully with intent. One thing I don't need is another Amber. lol Take Care

[@TheScentinel]

Yeah, i think i just have Ambre Russe and Ambre Fetiche now.

[@gail3633]

Love these updates and glad to see the fabulous Pistil here💚

[@TheScentinel]

Thanks Gail, yes! It deserves to be here.

My top 10: 1. Ralph Lauren Polo Green 2. Dior Eau Savauge EDT 3. Creed Bois du Portugal 4. Guerlain Heritage 5. Terre D'Hermes 6. Tom Ford Beau de Jour 7. Guerlain Vetiver 8. Creed Royal Oud 9. Creed EROLFA 10. Creed Green Irish Tweed P.S I tried Afternoon of a Faun and thought it was horrible.

My current favourites ( don’t laugh ) not in order. Davidoff Zino Tom Ford noir anthracite Gucci guilty absolute Tom Ford Tuscan leather Tom Ford Oud minerale ( original private blend ) Guerlain heritage Burberry indigo Tom Ford noir og edp Manders cedrat Boise I probably forgot a few 🤓

[@jimjamjerry]

What do you think of Bleu De Chanel? The edt. I just bought it but am not seeing why everyone loves it so much..

[@TheScentinel]

I think anyone thatvis new to Bleu de Chanel might have the same impression. I also came to it really late and realised how many subsequent releases now have a similar profile. I think when it came out, it would have been quite a well done, not too common freshie "dumb reach, that just smells good. So i think it's almost a victim of its own success, because it created a ubiquitous scent profile, and now we have many options in this genre.

[@jimjamjerry]

@@TheScentinel thanks for the reply! What would you recommend for a good summer fragrance? I am just getting into fragrance and it has been a really fun journey. So far I just have BdC and Dior Fahrenheit and ck one but it’s a start haha

[@TheScentinel]

@jimjamjerry i mean, that's a pretty good start. Check out Dior Eau Sauvage, or the Dior Homme Colognes.

[@tubereuse_criminelle]

I am surprised you prefer Equipage Geranium to the OG version! Mind you, we don't know yet what the original is going to be like now - it has been reformulated recently due to lilial ban, so wants testing! Ok, it will be my effort number 5 to like Grimoireit starts off magical, but then I get overwhelmed with olibanum and can't get over it.

[@TheScentinel]

Well, i wouldnt force it. We can't like everything. I have tried original Equipage, but i do slightly prefer the geranium flanker.

[@tubereuse_criminelle]

@@TheScentinel sometimes another person's view helps to see a fragrance from a different angle. Some of my most favourite perfumes are those disliked at first. Had Grimoire all day on a paper strip, and it's so much sweeter and less challenging than on my skin. I guess, that's the answer. 👌

[@TheScentinel]

@tubereuse_criminelle i actually didnt like Habit Rouge first dozen or so wears

[@LEgoiste]

Listening to you express your appreciation for your scents only cements my love for mine, either by a memory association or how they make me feel. Sotd Dzongkha, I just felt the need. On a recent vacation to Antalya, Turkey walking amongst the streets lined with orange trees in blossom made me want to wear Seville a l'aube, it does it so well. Impeccable top 10.

[@TheScentinel]

I am wearing Dzongka in the next few days! Thank you

[@flavasauce8945]

Holy moly Pep! I was gobsmacked to see Grimoire at numero uno, especially since after I wore Borneo my scent of the eve was this! Amazing list and glad you included Pistil as it’s phenomenal.

[@TheScentinel]

Yeah, i mean it makes sense to me that I love Pistil.

[@bewley7]

I’d agree I think

[@flavasauce8945]

It would be interesting to see a list of all the perfumes you’ve ever ranked #1.

[@TheScentinel]

@flavasauce8945 ooh what a great idea! I have done 13 of these now. Maybe i can do a top 10 of number 1s

[@flavasauce8945]

@@TheScentinel And then you could do a top 10 number 2’s, 3,s and 4’s! Jk! 😂

[@CanadianBeautyBlog]

Wow 7 years for Ambre Russe! That’s great! I don’t know if my older perfumes make my top 10 list.

[@TheScentinel]

Is that because you are always in love with newer perfumes? Surely something like Coromandel would be in yours

[@CanadianBeautyBlog]

@@TheScentinel that’s true but I’ve still only had it for a couple of years.

[@thetrueconnoisseur]

Seven years is a very long time! I checked my top ten and I haven't owned any of them that long (though I do think I sampled SMN Acqua di Cuba for the first time a good while ago).

[@Radhatter1]

Hi buddy any thoughts on the new Guerlain Vetiver Parfum ? Does it display any kind of characteristics of the original 80’s/90’s version which I’m craving. I have read mixed opinions that the new parfum is very similar to the original Vetiver EDT, or at least, that was the first impression. The opening is refreshingly bright and fresh then smoky ? Thanks

[@TheScentinel]

I wish i could tell you. I smelled the parfum for a minute in a store, and to me it seemed "darker" and less citrus. But i have no experience with vintage iterations. Sorry.

[@Joel_Matrix]

I also love Parfum d'empire ambre russe. I got Parfum d'empire acqua Di scandola lately. I love it. Smells like you came out of the ocean & didn't rince off the salt off your body. I want to get from them next Parfum d'empire Aziyade (for fall/winter).

[@TheScentinel]

Ooh, i might try and test that for next summer.

[@filipperinic]

I had the oldest version for some of time and must say its one for lovers of cumin other than those who expect fruity woody aromachemicals. Its very fizzy not so amber oriental spicy, so the opening is quite interesting to me.

Curious…why are you calling them perfumes? I’ve never heard a reviewer call them anything but fragrances, or scents etc. As a man, I would never say that I’m wearing a perfume

[@TheScentinel]

I'm a little confused. Perfume is a synonym for fragrance, scent, aroma etc I guess i call them perfumes because that's what they are. Why would you not say you are wearing perfume?

This one time, i spent a whole day watching videos from channels I wasn't subscribed to. I feel so stupid that I didn't think to let them know that they didn't do well enough to earn my valued subscription. They even asked me to like and subscribe to them, yeah, like it's that easy, right? But funnily enough, they too also talked too much on their videos, so you are onto something here. Game changer.

Don't ever say a word less, Pep. You never know who your style will resonate with. You never know where the ah-ha moment will come from. For example I used to be bored senseless with wine until some rep, out of nowhere, grabbed my attention with it. Made me love it. I am having such a renaissance with fragrance because of this channel! So many decants I want to try!
