CHANEL PLATINUM EGOISTE - FULL FRAGRANCE REVIEW 2022

[@TonCon89]

An excellent review of one of my all time favourite fragrances! Definitely a timeless, all occasions fragrance.

[@alexmartinez280]

The dry down is the best part and smells Devine in the wind. Thankfully that part last for hrs. One of the best designer releases ever.

@@RR-et6zp I have both but don’t see any real similarities. I think PE is heavily influenced by Green Irish Tweed and Davidoff Coolwater.

[@heikowallauer]

Great, detailed review! Thank you for that. In the last few years I had Bleu and Allure in my fragrance rotation but I think it is time to revisit Platinum Egoiste again. Best regards!

[@oandgw]

As a 20 year old looking at buying this fragrance, your comment on age and relative restraint is reassuring. Thank you!

[@pasquale78]

Thanks for the review. I'm always on the hunt for a nice new fragrance. I currently use Dior Homme intense and, the new last years, Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal, which is an absolute must have in my opinion. Never have I worn a fragrance that so many strangers commented on. I had women in stores asking me which perfume I wore.

[@flasherol3764]

This is a amazing fragrance. It's one of my favourite.

[@Valera_Scotland]

My one and only fragrance. Fresh, uplifting and memorable

[@stephanx2384]

My all time favourite fragrance. I always get a kick out of the ice-cold metallic vibe (geranium, methinks) during the opening. It gives me the vibe of the 'zzinggg' of a katana (think Kill Bill here) cutting through the air.... As it dries down it changes to something completely different, something warm and beautiful. Amazing scent and a classic for sure!

[@wayne2150]

I'm late to this vid. Just subscribed though. I find Platinum Egoiste to be a fabulous, classy fragrance. The geranium works so perfectly with the woods and musk. Love it!

[@mtedwards]

Good review. Although I remember this fragrance from the 90s, I only bought my first bottle last week! Allure was my first Chanel purchase, way back in 1999. I like the cooler, sophisticated aura of this one ☝🏼 though. It’s timeless, elegant and a bit different from the sweet aftershaves that dominate the market at the moment.

[@nosphy]

Platinum, Allurre sport EDT, Bleu parfum from Chanel are all a man need.

[@cesarbolet2181]

Forgot antaeus.

[@mikefortney7879]

You got my curiosity up enough to give it a try. Unfortunately in my job I cannot wear anything that smells, but on the weekends I’m free to use it. Good honest review.

[@kevinsonnenberg2868]

Chanel doesn’t go on sale.

[@patrickday5238]

Thank you for the great review. Chanel makes a solid product. I’ve used their aftershaves for 25 years.

Great review as always. One I need to revisit.

[@verykeen2please]

Ash not one ive tried before, i will add to the list

[@149jimbo]

Thanks for the review. Personally I prefer Egoiste over Platinum Egoiste. But you pays your money ...

[@beefbottom]

I used to wear this in college back in 1995. Great scent.

[@AB-qo2xq]

Very comprehensive review

[@bryanread4076]

Fantastic video ash

[@sarhadkeleshian9212]

Great review ,always has its place in my collection

[@michaelhill7415]

Another great review, what a legendary fragrance, I've been using dunhill edition for some time now after watching your review and was looking for something a bit stronger and stumbled upon Roger and gallet open after owning the sadly now discontinued l'homme, it's cheap, and something way above it's price point, think adding tobacco to edition and turning up the vetiver to eleven! It's a real treat, I'd love to hear your views.

[@guitarplayer5611]

Nice review!

[@ianhindmarsh882]

May well be worth a look as I need to replace my Fortis No. 89 (my wife has decided that she really doesn't like it...)

[@johaneriksson8618]

Bought this one back in the 2000s when Debenhams had a store in Stockholm, one of my ALL time favorites besides "Burberry Touch" actually :) .

[@nealefrancis9094]

Hi ash habe you tried chanel pour Monsieur edp ? It's definitely a fragrance for a chap and i think you will fall in love with it

[@TheChapsGuide]

It is a favourite of mine. Classic.

[@bornshamir7792]

The Original Egoiste is the my favorite . Its been at least 22 years since I had it.

[@alexmartinez280]

The new 2022 bottles are the best since the original. Buy with confidence as they have fixed the formulation and returned it to its 5 star status.

[@bornshamir7792]

I have since had a bottle from Paris and I adore it. It is not as potent, yet after a season of it loving it;I missed this so much!

[@maximilianoramirezcastillo]

About 10-days ago.

I really like Diptyque colognes too. Vetiveryo is very good

[@BreezeBoo]

Always on my backpack ❤️

[@chrishoyt7548]

Chanel always has offered top quality products throughout the whole range. I've enjoyed and tried most of their product line. Any are very good choices. Love the bottles designs. Starlight

[@marcdee4427]

Eue savage Christian Dior, I think Steve McQueen used to wear it , it’s so classic . Aqua de Parma is beautiful 🤩 give it a go

[@whiteboxvolume]

I recommend Tom Ford's Tobbacco Oud (then you can bin your pipe Ash!) ;)

[@HRM.H]

Could you take a look at the fragrance called ; Sculpture by Nikos. It's been one of my personal favorite budget fragrance for years and it has been around since 1995. It was composed by Michel Almairac

[@aldojasso9177]

Good fragance good sir

[@mustafaalkishtine164]

Perfact vedio my dear ilove platinum..

[@investigatorreports4311]

I adore and own Eternity for men. I heard this is an upscale version of Eternity, or in that wheelhouse. I'd love to own it but $125 for a medium sized bottle? Can't afford that😮

[@Fush1234]

A very old fragrance now. At least 20 years old. Chanel do have many more recent fragrances. A blue is wonderful

[@robo2606]

I wore the original a lot in the 80's and 90's. Great review 👍🏻

[@pacman1789]

Egoiste launched in 1990 not the 80's and Platinum Egoiste came out in 1993.

Thats how you do a review but i hate people who just say notes i want someone who explain how it smell many good channel just say note

[@ayazmalik5260]

How is The longevity ? And projection ? ☺️

[@TheChapsGuide]

Longevity and projection is low/medium.

[@belairscents]

Great review👌 but I am sorry to say has been reformulated & altered recently by Chanel! But I prefer the vintage version which I used to wear over the years! Most of classics are now reformulated due to new regulations imposed by EU. Such a pity🤔 but still smells great👌 Cheerio🥂

[@TheChapsGuide]

All fragrances are constantly being reformulated between batches as the ingredients flex and change due to market availability and cost. Sometimes the fragrances get better, sometimes they get worse. I find the present Platinum Egoiste to be a faithful rendition and excellent successor to the original. I find that the very best houses, such as Chanel, rarely drop the ball on their scents. That is why they cost a little more than others.

[@belairscents]

@@TheChapsGuide I agree with you! But sometimes they are forced to reformulate due to EU regulations! That's another story! Even perfumers are fed up with this! Many natural ingredients are now banned by IFRA such as oakmoss, musk , ambergris..... & This fact change the whole game for oldies! Thanks for your reply🙏 Cheerio🥂 Ps have you tried the vintage version? I own the vintage & the current version & I can feel the difference between😉

[@jimmydigital]

@@belairscents different opinion here but I find most reformulations are for the better. take paco rabanne pour homme. the reformulation has tidied it up, taken away the animalic "dirtiness" and made it more soapy, and much more wearable, much more crowd pleasing. it's now a better fragrance than it has ever been. the re-release of lynx java is also better than it was in the 90s. one problem with it though, it's gone after 30 minutes. worn off.

[@belairscents]

@@jimmydigital I don't think so! Your view is only yours! People are buying on eBay vintage frags very expensive & they prefer the vintage version to current version!

[@jimmydigital]

@@belairscents yes but that's another point I often bring up. there is a huge disconnect between "frag heads" and the mainstream Joe Public. There's often a reason stuff like aqua di gio, cool water, and drakkar do so well commercially -- because they actually smell nice. I recently sampled some penhaligon's "terrible teddy" and honestly it's NASTY ... but it costs a bomb. niche. but no one much - apart from frag heads - would call that "quality"

[@captaincommodore8901]

What is the difference between the egoiste and the platinum egoiste?

[@TheChapsGuide]

Egoiste is very spicy - I’m reviewing it on the channel next week.

[@captaincommodore8901]

@@TheChapsGuide Thank you very much for your reply! Looking forward to the video. The reason I ask is that I am looking for a parfum that is similar to Burberry London (my all time favorite for a long time) but the beginning headnotes of burberry that I love so much do not last very well and do not project, do you know of a parfum that has the headnotes of London in the heart of base? I have heard that Egoiste could be worht a try.

[@YShiishening]

He’s too much of a fan to properly evaluate the product. Plat ego for any age? Not impossible but hardly likely for many younger guys. I also don’t think it’s appropriate for almost any cordial evening setting and neither do I believe that it’s been intended as that. I think he’s describing more so the signature scent properties because that’s what it is for him. Sorry bro, but not every day is Bateman day.

[@sdnalyam]

As Chanel doesn’t believe in competition you need to include alternatives to all Chanel products, especially cheaper options.

[@paulwatch5990]

Try Legesi by Armaf. 95% the same but stronger 👍🏻

[@CharlesHarrison-b6r]

This is the cheap option !

[@fabiovazquez54]

Egoiste ou Platinum Egoiste?

[@TheChapsGuide]

Platinum for me. I prefer the zest

[@pumaadidas]

was a great frag but due to reformulation it has gone downhill, like alot of the old Chanel classics allure

[@paulwatch5990]

Check out Armaf Legesi, this is a stronger platinum Egoiste 👌🏻👌🏻it’s an edp, fantastic stuff, only £25 for 100ml

[@pumaadidas]

@@paulwatch5990 will do thanks 4 d heads up cheers

[@jamesbailand4311]

Here we disagree. A man does not wear perfume. That was originally for harlets. A man has musk, that comes though the sweat glands. A healthy man, with a healthy hormonal system will give off a healthy masculine odour. Unless, you're French..

[@philippedemontauvant5565]

🤣🤣🤣 Sweat does not smell unless you have some obnoxious type of bacteria or fungi on your skin/feet.

[@jamesbailand4311]

@@philippedemontauvant5565 all mammals operate this way with smell and sexual selection. Interesting from the world of globohomo homosapien; Woman who come off the contraceptive pill find different male smells attractive/ unattractive. Equally men no longer find those same women attractive, or vise versa. This effect can be so strong it's been linked to divorce. Hormones and their secretion are important. Just because you aren't consciously aware of it does not mean it is not important. It's an interesting topic, that is connected more broadly to health as well as sexual desirability.

[@mm-xl1il]

What a ridiculous take.

[@sillysausage2244]

This is the olfactory portrait of a man with white socks and a can of sporty deodorant - I'm not sporty, so I feel like an imposter wearing this - the top notes seem generic, boring and cheap. The middle, base and dry down are much better. This is a man hopping into a sports car to go and play tennis, whereas I prefer the classic Pour Monsieur, where he slides into a Bentley to go to the private airstrip, en route to Paris for dinner. A safe crowd-pleaser, happy to smell it on someone else, but doesn't quite gel with me.

[@likeris2]

if you want headache

[@riod43]

Skip Platinum. If you can find the original egoiste, get that instead.
