Jubilation XXV by Amouage Fragrance Review (2008) | Retro Series

[@robes08]

My longest review on my channel. I can't believe it hit 37 minutes.

[@RichMitch]

Sensational. 37 minutes, I am *delighted*

[@RichMitch]

History of the Omani export market 🕺 love a bit history in fragrance reviews

[@DaViDsON0831]

Too long.. talking to much about nothing. Focus on the important things. Horrible....

[@fernandokain337]

when did you review it Marc? 2012?

[@So.avant.garde1]

robes08 no worries. The video was great. It convinced me to try it 👍🏽

[@therealotitis]

My most trusted nose in the world! Thank you for this review Marc, can't wait to try it when my sample comes next week!

[@GoodDaySir]

Just bought this a last week and wow, what a scent. It has so many layers through its progression and it's progression takes quite some time. I blind bought it, I would have liked to see this review before to calm my nerves! Couldn't find your review on it but I say Joy Amin mention you liked it. Glad to hear your take on it to compare now. What is your view on the magnetic cap (manufactured in UK not Oman) reformulation talk?

[@TropicofCapricorn.]

One of the best reviews I've ever watched/read of a fragrance! and I've watched at least a few thousands in youtube alone. Thanks for this.

[@salihoutasawwuf665]

Thanks Mark. I always rely on your informative reviews to guide purchases and build my collection.

[@robes08]

Glad to help!

[@林孟錡]

Legend Reviewer review legend fragrance This scent is one of my favorite of all time And I bought it because of you few years ago Glad that I have the original version bottle Marc Sorry with my poor English I am your big fans from Taiwan

[@robes08]

All good my friend, appreciate the support on the channel!

[@kungfuheaven1927]

Marc, you'll always be the greatest fragrance reviewer for me. No one comes close. Been watching your videos since the start and come back to them time and time again.

[@sciguyfragz1616]

Jubilation xxv is my all time favorite and I just tried portrait of a lady today and I think it may rival it if not it's my second and it also kinda reminds me of it. Keep up the good work man!

[@crieverytim]

I'm a man, love portrait of a lady! big fan of Dior Oud Ispahan as well.

[@Lamulaa]

Bought a 2008-2010 version bottle. The juice is more yellow than yours. I do have to say that I found the projection/longevity pretty weak for a vintage bottle. Today 3 sprays behind the neck and after 3/4 hours it became unnoticeable for me and others. Could the juice be altered? Or is this common and did I had a misconception about Jubilation? My Jub 40 does last and project way better.. Very nice review (5 years later)

[@davids.816]

Nice review man! I noticed your poster and the lack of music on your vids. I'd be willing to make a couple of intro songs for you to use if you like. I ask nothing in return, just dig your vids man.

[@mdcool5717]

Got mine today sept10,2022 and dam near broke the bottle,l love it my first. fragrance from this house of amouage👍🏾

[@robes08]

It's one if not the best of the brand.

[@permortenkjl4281]

I just bought this today after doing a test drive of it this morning, and wow! is this a great, great fragrance! You can smell so much in this perfume, words like "Piece of art" and "Masterpiece" springs to mind, because there are so many beautiful things going on here: It's warm, mature, regal, yes, and it's sweet and deep and exciting at the same time, but to me, the real genius of Jubilation XXV is that none of the elements it is made up of really stand out - -

[@pullingthestrings5233]

Did you get the newer batches? The ones with jubilation xxv on the bottle?

[@robes08]

Thanks for sharing!

[@nikk_we]

Just swapped a dear TF for Jubilation XXV, really hope that the newer batches also hold up to much of your review, I‘ve heard that it has been reformulated..

[@robes08]

Hope so as well 🙏

[@MuddyGreenMonster]

Jubilation is one of the very best. Amouage are among the masters of the fragrance game.

[@razvanyke]

Simply the best review for Jubi XXV there is. I am curious what will you say about the Jubi 40 man? I have a review for it already and I think it´s a good step ahead. The new crown jewel for Bertrand?

[@robes08]

Thank you for the really kind words. Jubby 40 is on the wishlist!

[@TheApollo2579]

I got a tester recently with the white cap, and I pickup a urine like smell, or like a barnyard like smell and I don’t know if that’s the Oud or what ??? but I don’t quite like it.

[@regalkismet]

Luv Jubilation XXV.....This and Lyric Man are amazing to me.

[@sopito7883]

Good review friend did you recommend blind buy this fragrance I own reflection man, and love it I just want have a idea to pull the trigger

[@thescentman3678]

Start watching at 5:16 but afterwards an exceptional review

[@alexandrefialho9418]

My favoritos Amouage the only drawback being I cannot wear It as often as I would since Brazil is often too hot. Loved your review

[@BNOVA]

Very good description Marc. I had this one but had to gift it after a while. The fruity notes were not as fresh as the sample that made me buy it. However it is good stuff.

[@jasonmordecai8212]

I hated it first time I smelt it and gave it away but I thought I’d try it again and boy it’s my favourite of all the frags I own now I guess the nose grows to like it over time

[@dusanninic5372]

That's right Jason !

[@boxingnick1238]

Great detailed review Mark brilliant how descriptive you are and how your able to break down the different stages of fragrance. Are you planning on doing a review on Interlude soon. Love to here your thoughts on it. Also would like to hear your thoughts on Armani Ambre Eccentrico if you smelt it before. Kind Regards Nick

[@AHK206]

I just got the new formulation. Smells amazing. Beautiful. Luxurious middle eastern scent. Its not so unique to me as I am from Malaysia. But the quality is extremely high. You can tell there are a lot of natural raw materials that are in this fragrance. Performance wise, its kinda light and airy for the latest formulation. But I dont mind it as the scent is just divine and I got it for a really good deal (£140). But yeah dont buy this retail please. Not worth it with performance you get with the latest formulation.

[@robes08]

I actually just bought a backup bottle to this as my original bottle is getting low. Looking forward to sniffing it and see if there's differences.

[@blagojmilosevski9547]

​@@robes08any luck with the new one? Is it watered down

[@b1bo840]

just bought this one yesterday, mines has the heavy cap

[@matthew4606]

do 10club list..

[@asa9268]

I have a simple question please..someone has an unopened bottle of jubilation xxv and i wanna buy it since we agreed on a vintage jubilation 25..but i cant buy and open it only to realise its the new formulation..is there a way i can know if its vintage or the newer version just from the package?

[@calinbiris47]

If Aventus is the king, Jubilation is the legend

[@robes08]

Jubby!!!

[@dusanninic5372]

Aventus is just a scent. Diaghilev is much better fruity chypre. Vintage Kouros is the prince. Vintage Antaeus is the king !

[@calinbiris47]

Jubilation is perfecțion 10/10

[@Daniel-fr9or]

My mom likes aventas no one I know likes it besides her

Is this a review or an audiobook ?

[@millenialbroadcast]

Excellent review

[@robes08]

Thank you kindly

[@saltnpepper6675]

Hi.. Is there any batch variations in Amouage jubilation xxv man? Because my 2.5ml sample smell different than full bottle.

[@dusanninic5372]

Yes there is.

[@pullingthestrings5233]

@@dusanninic5372😢 how's the performance on the new bottles?

[@dusanninic5372]

@@pullingthestrings5233 Pretty weak. I have the new bottle and one vintage (snap cap bottle), so the projection and especially the longevity of the vintage one is much better.

[@Jvr1994]

I bought a 50ml bottle with a white non magnetic cap in a store here. Is this vintage?

[@Dt70098]

Where did you buy it from?? I would love to get the older formulation. :(

[@RichMitch]

Yes!

[@Granada296]

@@RichMitchhi rich, what is the fair price of a white non-magnetic cap vintage Jubilation in your opinion? Partial or full. Thanks

[@RichMitch]

@@Granada296 hello! I'm not sure to be honest, depends what you're willing to pay

[@dusanninic5372]

​@@Granada296 The price is 300 euros. I've found it in Cannes, Cote d' Azur.

[@Dustpuma1]

I dislike that this is an olderrr bottle for the fact it has the white cap and the bottom code etc. So buying not fake's is hader

[@awkwardme5375]

Hey man, are you ever coming back? We have The Fragrance Apprentice, and he's great, but no one has filled your shoes, and you've been MIA for a year now. None of the big dogs have touched on Pineward, Olympic Orchids, Happyland, LVNEA, Gather, Solstice, etc... You were THE Slumberhouse guy, as those houses need some honest reviews. I KNOW you'd adore Pineward. But forget all that. Just come back, man. I can't take too many more claps, spins, and key bumps...

[@keithcollins5081]

If I don’t find the little note in the box should I assume it’s a fake?

[@robes08]

they don't that little touch anymore sadly.

[@Blackheart_Rises]

keith collins no, the note only came with the vintage batch.

[@bandar7891]

Does it smells like cough syrup!?

[@robes08]

not at all.

[@cliftonledbetter1368]

thank you

[@MADTURK61372]

I think cap made out of bone.

[@shezad2006]

Weak projection & longevity, otherwise nice fragrance BUT if this $300+ can’t last long then it’s a flop

[@raginbad1366]

Do a review on Versace eros

[@scentsei8201]

Why? It is overrated and boring.

[@shezad2006]

Oud for Greatness by Initio blows this out of the park definitely

[@robes08]

All subjective however I have smelt both and IMO Oud for Greatness can't even sniff at Jubby's jock strap.

[@MultiBloxx]

Absolute crap I get no honey no fruits it's a dry non lasting expensive waste of money, so glad I bought a sample first I even threw that in the bin. Save your money buy something else there are far better fragrance for a cheaper price

[@Puddycat00]

I hate the women’s version, it’s way too masculine. And way too much incense. I like incense to burn it but not in a perfume. Nooooo. What, did u say Le Male? That garbage piece of crap joke of a mens perfume? Do ppl still wear that shit? Lol it has to be MFK’s biggest shame of a fragrance. Everything MFK did before he started his own house was garbage. Imho. And I love MFK. It’s my favorite perfume house but I don’t like anything he did for other perfumers. As for Amouage, I love only 4 scents out of all of their offering. That’s it. I love 4 and hate all the rest. The ones that I love, I really love tho.

[@dusanninic5372]

The women's version is a great Chypre !!!

[@user-rq7tt7qv6x]

They all smell like incense. It stinks, like I burned and incense and rubbed the ash on my arm 😖 Stick with Creed and perfume De Marly
