Perfumer Reviews 'Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche'

[@TheRealMcP]

It's so interesting to watch someone speak so knowledgeably and passionately. Love your work, ATH!

[@tariqelsadik]

ATH, you've just single handedly redefined how fragrances should be reviewed. The breakdown of the notes, the ratios, the proportions, why this and why that, the linking, the switching and what we should expect in the performance category. And to top it all of, the occasions this masterpiece was designed for, I mean, c'mon! Brilliant review ATH.

[@MoElwaan]

I love how you speak about the fragrances in general in a avery professional yet simple way Aaron! I can't help but watch the videos and enjoy your honest review, breakdown and general reaction. Truly love them all :)

[@garethdyos8018]

I've been learning such a lot from this channel Aaron. Thank you for taking the time to explain in such detail!

[@mierezsaturday5855]

This channel is mandatory viewing for anyone who works at the fragrance counter in a department store. Respectfully

[@jordanxlongoria]

Lol most of those behind the counter at department stores don’t know shit about shit

[@colinnotyou0k78]

😂 gotta love it when the people behind the counter be talking, and I have to hold my tongue and not call them out on there mistakes. Most people wouldn't know any different, but we in the fragrance community know better!

[@giorgig4828]

@@colinnotyou0k78 fr I went to a perfume boutique today to pick this up. I was just chatting with the girl working there and I told her how I chose to buy this over YSL Y edp but I was worried about the performance. She tried to convince me that edition blanche was much longer lasting 😂 I told her sure whatever, picked up the frag and left

I like this guy, but his intro is pathetic.

This is a channel exclusive no department stores have this in the us

This man whispering in my ears whilst giving me a class of aroma chemicals and concentrations and combinations to make certain smell profiles is something I didn't know I needed or enjoyed so much. Keep up the good work.

[@ginichimaru9020]

The fact that Aaron knew the performance issues of this fragrance on the spot just by putting his nose on it is by itself freakin' remarkable! Great Review Aaron.

He could have tested it already off camera before...

Finally a positive review on how I’ve always felt about this fragrance. This cologne actually works as a head turner for me even tho I don’t wear fragrances to impress anyone, I wear fragrances because I love how they smell.

[@ChugalugHouse]

One of my favourite designer fragrances!

[@fatshady5714]

I 100% agree! It's just so clean and special! A great cuddling scent!

[@Wills-World]

Best fragrance reviewer on YT. Beautiful soul and energy Aaron keep doing your thing I wish u success in everything u do

[@stockpicker1966]

This is the best daytime(mostly) summer fragrance in my collection(with Dior Cologne close second) and IMO the best of the Allure line. The way that the sweet accords are used here, so well blended in order not to "undermine" the fresh character of the fragrance, is indicative of the brilliance of Master Perfumer Jacques Polge. Wonderful video, Aaron! Greetings🇬🇷

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Thanks for sharing!

[@chriswilson1968]

I like Extreme the most. Performs great and girls love it.

[@najibmarianoazar4302]

Been waiting for this for a long time because the allure line is my favorite. Immediately stopped what I was doing to watch this. Great fragrance, great reviewer. Thanks and regards from the Caribbean.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Perfect fragrance for perfect weather

[@tonymalizia]

The description is 100% accurate, although I got decent performance out of it. As a freshie, it's quite potent, I would say.

[@mrgrimmer7997]

Same here i easily get 6ish hours from it which is better than all other citruses I own.

[@G43X]

I bought this fragrance at the Chanel boutique. I rewatched your video while smelling it. You are spot on. And yes im not the type to go to clubs.

[@Jindujun]

Aaron, your channel is so unique, really...most reviewers talk about perfumes in such a superficial way, whereas you go full out talking about the technical side of how these perfumes are composed and that is so interesting. Keep doing you Aaron!

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

I appreciate that!

[@pablogolcher5836]

Hey Aaron, love your videos! you've come a long way from your first videos, the way you interact, the way you connect... Here's to many more vids to come!

[@thomasblock1164]

Thanks, Terence. Picnic at the beach with family, got it. Gonna buy it and report back. Really like your reviews.

[@Vikram-rb2ek]

So how was it any performance issue it had

[@ericneal8582]

Another great review! You were the first KZbinr to point out the Chanel DNA to me. To my nose, it has a warm, slightly feminine body lotion smell. It seems to be an all Chanel fragrances. Thank you for all that you do!

[@time4jesus]

I'm so happy you finally reviewed this, Aaron. Either I have miracle skin or I got a really good batch because the projection bubble is slightly larger and the sillage is to die for. I was at an end of year work party (here in Australia that means high summer heat) wore this for the first time and received a great deal of positive attention. Very few people wear this in my part of the world, so I get to enjoy it often. High time I got a backup bottle. Thanks for reminding me!

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

I dont have the best skin for fresh fragrance.

[@giorgig4828]

Very few people wear this anywhere tbh, its a hidden gem. Most people go for the allure sport or eau extreme

[@pinzytoto7698]

Very smooth creamy lemon meringue pie that's exactly why I've liked this scent since it was released. Definite compliment getter. Great review as always ATH 👌

[@parfumprononce6262]

Big fan of édition blanche. People crap on the longevity but after owning my bottle for a bit after buying it brand new from Chanel, I can say that it has improved, for me.

[@ivantrudeau8974]

It all depends on our Ph.🤔

[@Dressing007]

Edition Blanche has good performance for me. Lasts throughout a whole workday. I can put it on 07.30 in the morning before going out and my family can still smell it when I come home. I do however do 6-8 sprays.

[@blogityblah]

Love the color of your background and the background wall other worldly dreamy music.

[@heshammalik5038]

This is an excellent summer fragrance, different from the bleu and other allure fragrances in the Chanel line. It has a pleasant sillage and very easy on the nose. It’s long lasting enough for a summer scent which are decidedly effervescent as I hope you’d agree. Thank you for an excellent review! PS I know you said you don’t like vetivers but I do think Chanel Sycomore is a really good example. Fingers crossed you like it!

[@BillyTimes-dw7vs]

Love this Guy awesome review on Every frangrace.

[@wow3130]

Love your reviews & the way you express yourself in every video it's never a let down 🙌🏻🙏🏻.

[@TheRecordButton]

After watching this video countless times, I finally found it on Chanel's official site available in the 100ml (50ml seems to always be available). Just received it today and sprayed twice on the forearm just like Aaron. Being able to watch Aaron's review while experiencing the scent and it's novelty is a fantastic way to discover a scent. Fantastic!

[@BRUXXUS]

This comment made me smile. :)

[@fatshady5714]

I deeply love this fragrance! Thank you so much for reviewing it! I only own two Chanel fragrances this one and BDC Parfum and they are right at the top of my collection. Crown jewels for me and you've captured the brand splendidly Aaron!

[@chriswilson1968]

Mine are BDC EDP and AHSEE

[@fatshady5714]

@@chriswilson1968 Well Chris, I have an unfortunate confession to make. Recently...I had to sell both of my Chanels. I know, it's enough to make any fragheads cry. But luckily, BDC EDP and AHSEE are still both readily available, so I will buy them again. I just gotta get the $$$ to do it! I even had to sell my Jovoy Private Label which is THE best Vetiver/Patchouli/Leather fragrance that I have ever smelled! Highly recommend getting your nose on it if you like strong, dark, woody, leathery scents! They do sell samples on their website if you're interested.

Good review for such a creamy, lemony unique fragrance. I have nothing to add except I love this fragrance.

[@oceansoflorewi]

Best alluring summer date gourmand on the designer market. This isn't casual at all- its elegance is alluring and intoxicating all the while being light and ethereal. Beautiful sparkling lemon vanilla woods. I have the EDT version- which I heard has more creamy vanilla. Curious how the EDP smells. More lemon?

[@fredbrea7367]

I loved this fragrance from the first time I smelled it. It was my signature scent this past summer.

[@maxibo4221]

Love Edition Blanche for Summer. You have to try Le Lion de Chanel. Its my favourite Chanel.

I found your channel cuz' of Chris frag-mental series of "Perfumer rates" and... boy you are amazing. Your personality is so delightful, charismatic, i love the way you vibe with the art of perfumery... every single one of your videos its a work of art itself. How you describe the scents, your body language, the dance-like moves. Watching you doing what you love is just amazing and lovely. I became an insta fan of your work. Much love for you ❤

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

[@fromtheunderbrush]

I really love this, but you’re absolutely right about the projection, I wish it did better. I’m curious about trying this out with your Carbon 😅

[@arzemagic]

What I’m wearing it is dark, but very bright at the same time. It’s partly and Dawn, and when I go out, I’d like to go out in the evening, but mainly after 11 am. Yes, so sparkly bright dark. Yes, this complements the words everything the words and loveliness.

Great review i have this and it is a really good fragrance, on my skin strangely it lasts for ages people at work have picked it up at the end of an 8 hour shift in the changing room on me but other people in a fb group were saying exactly what you said here that it didn't last long on them so i can only guess its my own skin that is just perfectly matched for this one, I love chanel fragrances

[@Real.Estate.Motivate]

Another great review Aaron. I couldn't agree with you more with how this Chanel reminds you of the beach. When I bought this it reminded me of the Carly Simon song "You're so Vain." Now this fragrance isn't offensive nor does it make people think that you're vain...but the line "You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht" beautifully reminded me of how this fragrance makes you feel...elegant and sophisticated with a subtle hint of confidence.

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Oh yes. I love that. I think this fragrance is perfect for high heat and for refined people. Its not for going out and screaming.

[@aypues]

Thx Aaron. Just found your channel yesterday and binging everything. LOVE your perspective as someone in the trenches everyday. I’d love to see your take on Frapin’s L’Humaniste which has been compared to this fragrance (I prefer Frapin’s though). Cheers from San Diego!

Your olfactory senses must be off the charts. What a breakdown! After hearing you, everyone else seems boring.

[@thomaswang225]

[@GeckoTDFarg]

Need to say the reviews of Aaron make any other fragance reviewers just kids talking about fragances. Aaron it's the professional here.

[@simianrogue]

Just discovered your channel, and love your knowledge base regarding the construction of fragrances. At 57 I seem to be on a personal journey to discover my 'signature' fragrance - as yet I haven't discovered it. I used to wear (and love) 'Happy for Men' by Clinique, but they had a bad batch run where it would not smell at all upon my skin. I'm experimenting with various fragrances, trying to learn about the various notes and seasonal aspects, but in all honesty, I'm a fresh, clean, seaside smell kind of guy. Oddly, I've gone along with other reviewer recommendations and found them not to my taste. Even the 'infamous' Armani Acqua De Gio Profondo doesn't do it for me. Looking forward to learning more from your video library. Keep up the good work.

[@chrissomerville2625]

Hi Simian. If you can get into a Chanel boutique, try a spray of their Sycamore fragrance. It’s part of their “exclusives” range. Absolutely stunning. It might be something that suits your requirements nicely.

[@porousdumasia3256]

Agree overall a nice Frag but lacks staying power and sits close to the skin.

im in the market for a new fragrance and here comes arron with another 10/10 review. ive bein swapping between bleu de chanel and spicebomb extreme. i personally wouldn't buy spicebomb again as it was hyped a little too much for my taste and i would and wouldn't buy bleu chanel again. would for the drydown wouldnt for the grapefruit opening. going to the fragrance shop to see if they have this. got a 20% discount code from the last time i went there too so win win. great review arron. watching these review's has made me rather particular about what i buy now too haha

[@patricklary81]

I dont like vetiver either! How does this compare with dior homme cologne? Which is better? I own dior homme cologne, as well as bleu de chanel edp, allure home sport, and allure sport extreme, and have though about buying this as well. Chanel fragrances definitely are not as loud as dior fragrances but they tend to smell more natural. But I'm not huge on lemon. I prefer orange or the citrus in clinique happy. Another great video.

[@elrubio3955]

Which is your favorite I like the extreme the most haven’t tried the others except bleu de Chanel

[@lonewolf5969]

Yes I agree I think Clinique is the cheapest one that does the job with longevity and performance and safest pick in my opinion if you want to start on fragrances with cheapies.

[@patricklary81]

@@elrubio3955 I also like the extreme the most. I dont get the greatest performance from the original sport. Its still good but feels unfinished. Extreme feels like the finished product and the performance is much better. I'm a huge vanilla fan and extremes dry down is amazing. I like bleu edp and parfum, as well. The edt version suffers from the same performance issues that allure sport original suffers from in my humble opinion. The edp is soft, intimate, and well put together, it doesnt project like a dior product but I prefer bdc to dior most of the time because I dont go nose blind from scorching synthetics. I catch whiffs of bdc throughout the whole day and I attribute this to its being less harsh on your olfactory senses. I was a huge dior fan but as I have grown older and gain better knowledge and understanding about fragrances and how they work, ive become more partial to chanel products.

[@patricklary81]

@@elrubio3955 I havent owned a hermes product but its been on my list of wants for awhile. The flint note is intriguing to me. I like dry downs that are smokey and woody. I recently sampled sauvage elixer and the dry down is amazing. Its probably the best dry down ive ever smelled. That might be novice of me but we like what we like. I tend to gravitate to more mature scents with masculine dry downs, and other than fall and winter gourmands I dont really care for sweet fragrances. Ive heard that hermes products are more mature and masculine scents. I know intense vetiver is big right now but I dont like vetiver. May be the reason ive never owned a hermes fragrance. I think vetiver is a prominent not the use alot. Haitian vetiver I believe.

[@7547JAMES]

I enjoy eau extreme,I love lemon meringue pie so I'll have to put this on my (ever growing) list.

[@MoahGentle]

I like a good, informative review. Been debating for months now to order this and AHSEE or not. I got the original AHS and I love it but the other flankers cost 128 dollars a bottle (100ml, mind you) which is kinda costy but you may have just pushed me closer towards placing that order.

[@nicktoth3994]

I just don't get the lemon meringue pie reference. To me it smells more like that fizzy slightly carboned effect you get when you mix lemon iced tea powder. The lemon and vetiver work perfectly here. I have the EDT which is rumored to be the exact same as the EDP...
