I love your new direction Aaron! You are one of a very few individuals who can really bring the art of perfumery to a wide audience.

2:05 In case anyone is wondering, MSDS is Material Safety Data Sheet. It's used to describe chemicals, their testing results and directions for what to do in case of exposure. Since we are putting this stuff on our skin, it's good to see creators references this. He has a degree in chemistry and that's a common practice when dealing with any chemical.

[@justinlivingston111]

Also, to expand, the CoA (certificate of analysis) is the sheet that comes with the material showing that the chemical tested inside the ranges that are expected - color, 1,4 Dioxane content, etc.

[@markoq1879]

The fruity smell allows me to be fun and the oud is different for the people around me. It is fun with a lot of depth.

[@Chriss027]

I really love this fragrance. Will be using it this fall/winter for sure

[@wrath98]

ATH and Crivelli are two of my favorite houses. I’d like to see a comparison of their three ouds (Maracuja, Cadenza, Stallion)

[@wazzabanzook5028]

Crivelli is basically a clone/inspired house. Oud maracuja is basically ombré nomade with passionfruit, and hibiscus Mahajad is basically a play on Gucci Flora and that’s the only two that I have smelt , I suspect this is the theme with the majority of their fragrances. Nothing original

Aaron, have you started to speed up your reviews? This fragrance last 20+ on skin, 2 weeks on clothing and after washing it is still there. It projects a lot, and it projects for hours in the summer heat! Also, it evolves from passionfruit to rose-oud to leather. This is a magnificent scent. I cannot understand why you don't give a longer wear and then give dry-down review. By the way, I was extremely looking forward to this review since I cannot convince myself to pay 200 euros for 50ml.

[@amkamk5092]

I agree. Very boring when he does it this way.

[@ukguy]

I agree, it's one of the strongest fragrances I own.

[@bargainboymakem1]

I love Aaron's vids, I've been watching them all summer. I love hearing true artists talking passionately about their work while making it accessible, entertaining and breaking it down for the lay person. The highest compliment I can give him is that to me he's the David Attenborough of the Fragrance world. I've just taken the plunge and ordered Guapo, Blue Fever and Homme. I can't wait for their arrival...no pressure.

[@bargainboymakem1]

My 3 frags have arrived and...I've never smelled a fragrance that gave me goosebumps, let alone 3. 3 blind buys and I can't believe how beautiful all 3 are. I'm so glad to find out that Aaron's talk is completely justified and in tune with what I want from a frag. I just want to try more. You have a new fan sir.

@@bespiller8221I find it interesting when people, without even trying a fragrance for themselves, tell me something between the lines of: “Well, “X” reviewer already said that fragrance “x” is not good, so it’s not worth it”. Very polarizing “opinions” these days, most people won’t even take the time to try, form their own opinion and decide for themselves.

[@brewno]

Maracujá is a brazilian word, because of the native-brazilians dialect. The accent in the já means that's the accentuated part of the word; you pronounce is MaracuJÁ, with emphasis in the já. :)

Got this for fathers day and love it. Last you all day and the next.

Really enjoyed this video, the approach to this is well done. It really helps you to appreciate the materials, their combination and the work the perfumer has to do to bring us a product we enjoy. Brilliant stuff

[@Retromansir]

Oh man I have been begging for you to review this one. I'm a little sad you don't love it as its my absolute favorite. I own two bottles of this as well as Stallion and Cadenza. The Passionfruit can be a bit jarring to some but I enjoy it so much as I think its an interesting combination that changes quite a bit. The dry down is lovely and performance is beastly. Cheers and hope you like Oud Cadenza more than this.

[@MrMannydac]

Oud maracúja is phenomenal. It’s so easy to overspray with it, then it can definitely be too much. Three half sprays is the sweet spot for me. The smell this leaves on your clothes is the smell aaron is smelling from the atomiser, it stays on my coat for weeks and is stunning.

On my skin it smells really leathery, passion fruit and I really enjoy it. This fragrance is my “me fragrance” in fall/winter. When it drys down it’s amazing. 10/10 for me.

[@lukawalli]

I enjoy Oud Maracuja, and friends of mine told me they really like it on me, but it can be very obnoxious for some people. When I wore it to work, a colleague thought some cables were catching fire or something was burning, until I suggested it may be my fragrance - and it was...it's very strong and lingers in the air, I started wearing it only at home or outdoor

[@ukguy]

I absolutely love it, one of my favs for sure.

[@takarafx]

I tested this on my skin yesterday and I totally agreed with Aaron, there is something weird going on in the first hour. The passion fruit accord is wonderful but there is something in the middle that just doesn’t fit in. Once it dries down leaving the base and middle notes, then it is calming down as another oud type of perfume.

[@roubeng6476]

It doesn't project far off, and it is pretty linear, but man it really is eternal lasting, especially on clothes. I'd say slightly too sugary, could use some lift/energy in its lifeline, your point explaining how its the heavy raw materials adds it all up. Awesome review.

[@andypayne2743]

Really enjoyed the educational and practical part of the video before the review. I would love a series on what it is to be a perfumer.

When you rejected the ethyl maltol, were you concerned that it might not whip through the base satisfactorily?

Ever since I was very little I have always had a huge fascination with chemistry, and into my adult life I've been more and more into fragrance and perfumery as a hobby, so your channel is like perfect for me! You've inspired me to start ordering some tiny vials of the various raw materials and chemicals that come up often so I can see what they're like on their own. It's very fun! I might even pick up a book or two on perfumery to try learning more about how good fragrances are constructed. Funny story... I got some Iso e Super, and wore a tiny bit on it's own, which smells amazing, but quite subtle to me. Within 5 seconds of walking up to a collogue, she was like "someone smells amazing!" had her smell it and she was like, "YES, that's it!" hahaha. Very fun. Thanks!

Oud maracuja imo is a 10/10 fragrance, it’s so nice,,, the first time I wore it I received 3 compliments on that day,,, do you still feel the same about it now, ??? Have you tried Hibiscus?

[@CiganoBU]

Any one who owns oud maracuja knows it’s lasts for an absurd length of time esp on clothes. I should not be smelling it walking past my wardrobe 4 days later😂😂 it baffles me every time because it’s far more powerful for me than other ‘powerful’ fragrances

To me it starts with top notes of Iris before drying down to a sumptuous light and sparkly vanilla, tonka, and leather. In my opinion, a masterpiece id love your take. P.s. I'm local (Bury) if you want to borrow my bottle.

[@jgeorge4257]

Hi Aaron, one thing with this I think is a bit overpriced because there’s no actual Oud in it. They use ‘Oud Accord’. People said it’s because it would smell too fecal, however your fragrances have Thai Oud that smell sweet. What’s your thoughts on this, should there be real oud reflected on the price of Oud Maracuja? 👌👍

Maison Crivelli like to put contrasting (notes that don't go together) notes in their perfumes . I think they did it with all of them and i think that's what makes them so divisive. Especially the parfums, there are people that love them and people that hate them.

I smelled real oud oil for the first time ever 2 months ago. It was £1800 for 12 ml (she let me smell, obviously I didn’t buy). I’m not exaggerating, but it smelled EXACTLY like a barnyard. I didn’t know what people meant by fecal, but it actually smells like manure. Since smelling that, I’m not too fussed about real oud in perfumes. I’ll take the synthetic kind without smelling like a donkey.

[@schneir5]

I've been on a big oud kick lately! I just went on my first vacation in years; I visited a fancy mall a few hours' drive from home over the last few days. I ended up buying a 50 ml bottle of Roja Parfums Sweetie Aoud parfum, after trying a bunch of fragrances at the Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Ave, Louis Vuitton store, Chanel boutique, and others. I even got to try the Amouage Attars, at Neiman Marcus! I got to try so many things that I had only seen in videos before. I know that I got on some of the sales' peoples nerves, but that wasn't my intent lol most of them saw me with my little book of test blotters and notepad, and just left me alone, but the one lady at Saks got annoyed that I asked her how much something cost. The ironic part is that I had planned this whole trip because it was one of the closest Louis Vuitton stores that carried the extrait fragrances. There are six of them, and I had particularly wanted to try Myriad and Symphony. Symphony is mostly a grapefruit top note scent, and Myriad is oud. The Louis Vuitton store near me just got those two and Cosmic Cloud in stock last week, so I tried those and bought Myriad already. It's the most expensive fragrance I've bought so far. Sweetie Aoud cost more by volume, but since I only got a 50 ml bottle, it was less overall. I had really wanted to buy Cherry Oud, from Guerlain, but they didn't have it in stock. I was just going to get a 100 ml bottle, which is their smaller size, with 200 ml being the other. They had one oud fragrance in stock, but only 200 ml and I think it was Oud Kheir or something like that; it definitely wasn't the one I really wanted. I also got to try a few Xerjoff fragrances. I had only tried my bottle of Naxos before this, that I got on sale from Amazon for like $220 or something, for the 100 ml bottle. It's pretty much the regular price, as far as I know. I think it's authentic, but I just don't love the fragrance. People say it's supposed to smell like honey and tobacco, but it smells like licorice to me. I tried Guerlain Tobacco Honey, and really liked it. That's how I had hoped Naxos would smell. I tried both Tony Iommi fragrances and also Alexandria II, and I really liked all three of those, but I love Alexandria II! I also tried Bond No 9 Nomad, because I have a sample of it and really like it. Bond No 9 Nomad, Xerjoff Alexandria II, Guerlain Cherry Oud, Oud Nude, Roja Sweetie Aoud, and Montale Oudmazing all really smelled amazing to my nose. I tried some Initio too, like Oud for Greatness, and it was definitely good, but it seemed like the other ones I mentioned were way better. I also sampled a Clive Christian oud scent, that was really nice. I think I have a good idea of how oud smells in general now, and I'm pretty sure that my bottle of Sweetie Aoud has real oud oil in it, even if none of my other ones do. I had hoped that Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade and Myriad had real oud oil, but seeing the prices for fragrances with real oud oil has made me not so optimistic. Frederic Malle charges $250 for a ten ml bottle, or like $1,300 for a 50 ml bottle of Hope, for example. I know those Amouage Attars are super expensive too.

[@schneir5]

I ordered a 100 ml bottle of Xerjoff Alexandria II also, because it was on sale on Amazon, for slightly cheaper for the 100 ml than they wanted for the 50 ml bottle at Neiman Marcus. It's sold and shipped by Amazon, so I'm pretty confident that it will be authentic. I think every fragrance that I've bought so far from Amazon, that was actually sold and shipped by Amazon, has been authentic. I have a couple Maison Margiela Replica ones, that seem suspicious, but I don't think they were sold by Amazon. I've just ordered two bottles directly from the Margiela website, and my By the Fireplace, Jazz Club, and Beach Walk all seem suspicious now, sadly. Sorry for getting sidetracked with that lol The lady who helped me when I finally bought my bottle of Roja Parfums Sweetie Aoud parfum gave me a bunch of free samples and stuff; it was really nice. She gave me this big bag and matching purse, and said I can give it to my mom. I don't know if they work on commission, but she seemed really gracious that I asked her, rather than just any random associate, because I had spoken to her a few times and she had helped me a lot, when I was ready to actually buy something. She gave me her card and said to ask her if I need anything in the future. Maybe I will order that bottle of Guerlain Cherry Oud with her help. She gave me a sample decant of Chanel No 5 EDP and the new Allure Homme Sport Superleggera, so maybe she can hook me up with more free samples, like even Candy Aoud and Fruity Aoud, I think those are the other two in that series, if I order Montale Oudmazing and Guerlain Cherry Oud with her help in the future. Hopefully I will be able to make this same trip again; it was really fun. We definitely don't have fancy malls like that around here. Sorry for rambling like this.
