Perfumer Rates BEST MEN'S FRAGRANCES OF ALL TIME

[@Beo2wolf]

Aaron so good, he knows his chemistry, he knows his fragrances, he knows sooo much about fragrance composition. I can listen to him breakdown fragrances all day. Thank you.

[@edwardtobin169]

Thank you for putting into words about Aaron . I smiled because none of these would be his choice. I am old but found my Shangri-La of perfume . Enjoy your journey. One day like me . Your find the one ted

[@Sizzle-zv3cp]

This is Aaron thank you guys for the kind words

[@minimanukuk]

For a chemist, he says “smells of chemicals” quite alarmingly

[@DarkHorseDanny]

I wish Fragmental did a "Which is your personal favourite of the five?" so we could see which Aaron liked the most before he saw the bottles. But, I guess, judging from his reaction it was Profumo and Bleu De Chanel EDP

[@johanwillfred6139]

Aaron have a video, something like “Hall of fame fragrances”, it intersects quite a bit

[@piemasta93]

I am always so impressed with Aaron, this man knows his stuff and he describes everything perfectly where you just understand and say “yup! That’s exactly what I thought” without being able to describe it.

[@RAOqwerty]

Your videos with Mr. Aaron have been utterly enjoyable. I would love to see you both go fragrance shopping as a video. Both personalities out in a real world setting would be fun to watch as well as seeing what you each pick.

[@FRAGMENTAL]

Good idea!

[@Mr.M1STER]

I like that idea too.

[@accradata]

Me too Aaron is cool

[@Sir-WMW]

Aaron's growing himself a cracking looking Barnet there, always great videos when you guys work together. Always really interesting and honest reviews you should make it a regular series ✌🏽👍🏽

[@pwj86772]

I love dior homme parfum….but man is it hard to wear, it’s very polarizing. It’s actually very animalistic the more you wear it and the more your nose becomes accustomed to the iris.

It’s not the most popular though? Sauvage probably outsells DHI probably, what? 50 to 1? 100 to 1? 200 to 1? 500 to 1? DHI is just a fragcomm darling. Out in the real world, your average man isn’t buying make up smelling fragrances

Demachy is my favorite perfumer . Since his departure from Dior , I’m really worried. Î’m buying back up bottles from the house left and right.

DO NOT BUY THE LATEST ITERATION OF DIOR SAUVAGE. THE "NON-ALCOHOLIC" ONE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!!!!

[@genki2genki]

I love this even though I've only watched about 30 seconds!

[@Gorevek]

I obviously wouldn't say All Time as it hasn't been around as long but Homme from ATH, is a lovely Iris/Orris fragrance. Aaron has done an amazing job with Homme. Nice Creamy Iris scent.

[@PapiAndrey]

Is it anything like the Dior homme lineup? I love the scent of iris/orris and i’ve been meaning to get something from his brand

[@kez850]

@@PapiAndrey it did remind me a lot of Intense/parfum.. but my nose tends to ignore certain notes and amplify others after getting the “ick” a couple years back.

[@maxjohnson1758]

​@@kez850 That lasted about 6 months with me, but the head fog has lasted more than a year. Very strange.

[@ianokay]

I really like hearing that ATH is becoming interested in light versatile scents that can be worn in a Spanish climate and perhaps moving away just from the obnoxious heavy-handed screamers; seems like he's growing a bit more sophisticated in his perfumery in understanding the power and difficulty in subtlety. Also seems like he's interested in MFK who is a master of that art. Makes me really excited for his next line of releases.

[@ianokay]

@marielang9474 No idea, I'm just referring to the proximity of Spain to the UK where he lives, and that it's a common travel destination for great hot weather that he doesn't experience and wear fragrance in otherwise

[@Enoc63]

I say I'm still a beginner in the frag game but i know BDC EDP is my forever favorite. It's addicting and uplifting to me :)

[@evsspecialeditionbarbie]

Was the first fragrance I bought. My mom had come back from getting something at Ulta & the cashier offered her a sample of bdc edp which she gave to me. It was that good I actually wanted a bottle. After getting into fragrances & smelling the whole store I can still say bdc edp is excellent & I'm glad it's my first buy.

[@Enoc63]

@@evsspecialeditionbarbie that’s cool man! For me it’s been backwards , I’ve smelled pretty much the usual scents you get recommended by reviewers and so far there’s absolutely nothing that has been able to top it for me. I been on the search for something that could but I haven’t found it yet lol

[@d7r_tv]

Dior Homme Original > Intense > Parfum. There's something about the Original that make it more masculine and more versatile at the same time. So underrated in the line.

This duo always amazing, fragmental provides really good quality review (cinematic video, creativity, professional in delivering message, and also good humour).. Aaron is the best perfumer in youtube (knowledge, chemical breakdown, very objective analysis). Love you guys ❤❤❤❤❤

[@d.scentgent5382]

I'd love to see Aaron's thoughts on Terre D'Hermes Pure Parfum. Like him, I didn't care much for the EDT as it was too sharp & screechy for my tastes. But I imme knew the Parfum was what I was waiting to smell. It took what I loved about the DNA and smoothed everything out.

[@jcharles65]

Such an amazing version, I agree!

[@mixsignal91]

I 100% agree. I much prefer the Parfum. It's so good.

[@ta9891]

not sure who is voting Dior Homme intense. Is it nice? Yes. But all I pick up after the dry down is iris. A girl smelt it on me and said it smells like chalk

Which version are you using, though? The 2021 version I agree, could have performed slightly better, but the 2022 and 2023 versions seem to be better.

[@HorologicRannygazoo]

I remember Aaron saying that Dior's ROSE Élixir Précieux was the fragrance that made him want to become a perfumer, which was also by Demachy.

[@stephenpatton703]

i can remember trying the rose elixir in dior boutique, WOW!

[@marvyeap]

My fav from Dior is definitely Tobacolor. its awesome.

[@lisbethfdez5853]

Was he trying to say Givency Gentlemen Reserve Privee when he said the tobacco color one? I had a chance to but it at Sephora but passed due to not wanted to blind buy. Really curious though because it is compared to Dior Homme Intense which is my favorite at the moment.

[@kirky9449]

I think he was talking about Tobacolor from Dior's private collection but I could be wrong. Reserve Privee is a good fragrance for sure but it doesn't perform on me at all which is a shame.

What about the king?? Chanel Antaeus 80s formulation.

[@warrenamulvey]

Would LOVE to know what he thinks of Alexandria fragrances!

[@raulsaavedra709]

Most important take here was that comment about these being the top 5 of all time "for Fragrantica voters," which is already quite a demographic bias on its own. The fact is there are no universal top 5's, not even for one person: taste and preferences can and do change over time.

[@taha7538]

I’m curious about his feelings for fragrantica ?

There's just something about classic Parisian fragrances that the fragcomm goes crazy over

Best of all time fragrances should be for all season. Those DHI is not one of it. The scent is good but the powdery is shite!

[@darkknightlight]

Aqua di gio profumo is hard to find nowadays. I like it because like they said it's good for any occasion. I own bleu de chanel edp and savauge edp and love them both just a bit expensive. So for the price when you could find it, Aqua di gio profumo is great.

[@justinreadingbooks]

I want ATH to get his nose on 90's throwbacks, like Michael Jordan, Adiddas Moves, CK Escape, Tommy. I feel like CK One had like a thousand different notes, like a fruit salad. I bet Aaron could pull those apart and list them!

[@thewaywelive2775]

Its a shame you used fragrantica. I would have liked to see some of those who are still here almost 40 years after release like antaeus, fahrenheit and green irish tweed. Git really stood the test of time, still smelling contemporary after more than 30 years. That's what is needed to be thought of as best of all time.

[@andrewmoss1135]

With you on Antaeus

[@felixrehmet4461]

For me it's (order could be debated) Oud Wood, AdG, Kouros, BdC EDP and Fougère Royal. Not only because of their smell but the impact they've had on the fragrance industry.

[@minimanukuk]

Platinum Egoiste is better than Bleu.

I would say the best are Bleu De Chanel and Dior Homme Intense. I have Dior Elixer and Sauvage EDP but they are not as good as Homme Intense or blue de Chanel .Elixer is too expensive and. It is not that good. Chopard Oud Maliki is better than Elixer and 1/3 the price online.
