NEW Paco Rabanne Phantom Parfum FIRST IMPRESSIONS - A BIG Step Up

[@Counterbo]

Why do people hate the bottle!??? It literally adds so much character and I love how it sprits out…. I-

[@dustynfigueroa6132]

hi

[@luism8130]

Because people are boring.

[@Adam-om9hu]

Im 35 and have about 125 fragrances, including 17 creeds. I love phantom.

[@WorldwideScents]

17 creeds i aint know they had that many 😮

[@HandMeDeals]

This mf think he assasin creed lol​@@WorldwideScents

[@kdmscarlett2012]

Are you just trying to flex? There's always someone out there with more (me 😜) including all pdm's, all creeds, and all xerjoffs, and 350 others. Someone surely has me beat as well!

[@Roy_Godiksen]

As a 39 year old man, the original Phantom is one of my all-time favorites. Seductive and gourmand. I hope I love the new Parfum is even better for me, because I've already burned through my first 100ml bottle. And I'm a collector with 50+ fragrances on constant rotation. I just ceep coming back to it every time I want something gourmand. My eks couldn't get enough of it either.

[@alfredobenavides8175]

I bought it because of the cool looking Robot style bottle it just sits nicely with my collection and he knows lady's and gentlemen how to do the Robot especially when I spray it on myself,sweet,intense and worth every penny.

[@jeffsmallwood4636]

I put my nose on it yesterday and it smells very nice! Also, YSL Myself smelt very nice also!

[@frewrldmusic]

If the original phantom came in a normal bottle people would have been loving it. Let’s be real

[@teriston]

I mean toy boy is even uglier but juice is loved by many.

[@flightgravity7483]

What does the bottle matter if you don’t like the way it smells?

[@Its_Might]

Na, I love the bottle on the original but it’s sickeningly sweet and headache inducing

[@richardspurgeon8954]

I agree ,I've had a decant and it smells great ,im 50 so it was slightly youthful for me so I gave it away and they loved it.

[@richardspurgeon8954]

​@@teristontoy boy is the most hated fragrance in the game ,999 people out of a 1000 would ware phantom over toy boy .

[@macfrostbaby3805]

I love the editing and lighting for this video.

[@GentsScents]

I appreciate that!

[@IanCanavan]

Phantom is a big compliment puller for me

[@CirocBoyDuece]

The hate for this because it was a “robot” is wild !! This fragrance is AMAZING !! One of my top and most complimented out of my midsize collection

[@natedavenport5485]

The hate on the original I found to be quite surprising. I also brought my bottle when it first came out and loved the design and fragrance. Definitely in my weekly rotation

[@Killerdragon397]

I Love Original Phantom, i own 3 bottles in 3 diferrent places. Thats how much i liked it

[@TheHispanicJukeBox]

Yeah I never understood why Phantom EDT got so much hate I bought mine when it first came out and I can't tell you how many compliments even though I didn't get the fragrance for compliments,but just noting that I've gotten quite a few compliments with the original.

[@cervantesbaptist614]

Are you twelve?

[@TheHispanicJukeBox]

@@cervantesbaptist614 are you trolling? Cuz if you are don't bother trying to get a rise out of me It won't work on me at all

[@digitalcthulhu143]

I really like the original but it doesn't last on my skin that's the main reason I didn't get it. Hopefully the parfum will actually last on me.

[@Gambit-YT]

When I was trying fragrances earlier Phantom EDT was one of the few that I really enjoyed. I was originally looking to try scents like Tom Fords ombré leather and to my surprise I didn’t really like it. A lot of the fragrances either felt too “blue” or the more masculine scents just had a hint of something I found unappealing. I would say Phantom EDT was memorable to me. I was reluctant to try it since it was in a corny looking bottle, but the scent was a very nice middle ground between the two categories of scents I was generally looking for. I didnt want to like it and only found the name because I had to google “cologne in robot bottle” lol. I’m no fragrance enthusiast, but I think it’s one of the best I’ve tried. I’m very curious to try the Parfum version.

[@1118freeze]

I tried it at Macy's and it smells very attractive. My heart skipped a beat.

[@Heyhey2545]

Smelled it yesterday and I wasn't necessarily wowed or anything. Not bad but not something I'd buy at full retail.

[@kostontubehd3693]

I love that they aren’t afraid to launch some wild bottles, it’s not like your paying more for the bottle, the prices are on par with all designers and your not getting a square or oval plain glass bottle, I don’t get the hate, I love the 1 million, invictus, phantom bottles

[@kevins5498]

Great review as usual! Thanks for the heads up on the redundancy factor. I already have both versions of Scandal, Wanted by Night, The Most Wanted & MW Parfum, so I think I'll pass on this one. At least I won't be blind buying it.

[@wynonasbigbrowndragon6121]

Paco Rabanne isn’t necessarily my favourite house, but I do like that their house has a DNA to it, not just individual fragrances. I just know when someone is wearing something by Paco Rabanne, even if I can't nail down the specific fragrance

[@balazs7235]

You mean Rabanne*? I felt the urge to ridicule their decision to rebrand the house and leave ‘Paco’ off lol

[@Seasniffer1969]

I don't understand the house tbh. Invictus aqua is a killer yet they discontinued it. Xs and xs night were killers and yet buh bye! But here's another rendition of 1 million

[@wynonasbigbrowndragon6121]

​@DRJoinRumbleStayFree I kinda like One Million but in an, "Ahh I wish that was around when I was a teenager" sort of way. At 36 I'm like, "It's nice but let the kids have that stuff"

[@Seasniffer1969]

@@wynonasbigbrowndragon6121 I have 1 million lucky and it's perfect for cold weather and a coffee shop

[@ultraviolenthd8381]

Next iteration will be a gold robot bottle, calling it now! 😆

I'm going to remember you, because I feel that you're right. 😂

Phantom is AMAZING. Every guy I know loves it too. Cant wait to try the parfum

[@bloodangelz]

I loved the original, lasted ages, had lots of compliments.. was going to get another, but then seen the new Parfum one which people say is better on every way.. so may get that instead

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day

[@bengalanos2554]

Hey Ash I’ve just started watching your channel and really enjoying it. Can I make a request: Can you please do a video on what are the most influential fragrances of the last 40 years? I heard you talking about Drakkar Noir the other day and how iconic and influential it was. That was interesting. I’d like to hear your take on 80’s, 90’s, 2000’s etc. eg. for 80’s I’d do things like Kouros, Jazz and Cacharelle. The 90’s Eternity, Fahrenheit CK One etc. Anyway just something I’d like to hear your take on and how things have evolved. Was there notes the were more prominent during each period.

[@OffTheGrid1982]

The both of them were my free samples from getting Victory Elixir and the regular Phantom is quite weird and the parfum is interesting and worth getting

[@BushidoBrown76]

Like a kid coming outside to his buddies with the new toy he got to show everyone.

[@sikapasnr5548]

What is your opinion on phantom parfum azzara the most wanted, which is your best pick please

[@saadsulaiman6616]

I have a question. Does this one have an NFC connect too?

[@banded30099]

Any way to tell which fragrances are supposed to be which on the triple trader site? Interested in getting some stuff to try

[@realtalk9195]

Went to house of Fraser today and couldn't believe how much tester bottles they had they've got a tester bottle for almost every designer lol spent about an hour in their smelling almost everything the only 2 that stuck out to me was PR phantom I smelt a unbelievably pleasant rhubarb note that was so different to everything else I was getting my nose on then I tried the black perfume one next to it which to me smelt like the toned down version 👎🏽 iv got some quality fragrances in my collection like TF Tuscan leather/ pdm Herod/ pdm Pegasus/ TF tobacco vanille/ pdm kalan ect think phantoms a little banger imo the only other fragrance that stuck out was definitely Carolina Herrera bad boy edp in the pure black lightning bottle not the one with any gold on the bottom. It's the one that's pure black. Yo this smells expensive it reminded me of Tuscan leather as to me it was mad dark and rich definitely gonna get a bottle

[@chipeirachonks5963]

The virtual part of this is kinda dumb, being just a link to their website. Making it into some sort of tamagotchi, making it love you if you spray it might actually sell some extra bottles.

[@davidmorrison5186]

I got the Parfum as soon as it released I was shopping for a gift for my uncle and spotted the bottle. I own both phantoms. I will say that the openings are very different. In the dry down the orginal is more earthy and smokey and the vanilla. In the black phantom the dry down is much sweeter but the lemon still hangs around. The weird thing is most of the paco lines have lavender and I hate lavender but I own (1 million, both phantoms, invictus platinum),. So not sure why the lavender doesn't bother me usually it gives me a headache so big thumbs up. In the end I agree if I had to choose one go with the Black Parfum. Is pachuli what makes it smell like smoke?
