Can we just appreciate that he’s able to breakdown everything in 5 minutes vs someones 20 minute video

[@zivoradpetrovic4592]

Agree. The 15+ min videos some channels are doing is overkill.

[@osmathgreenle8986]

19 mins why you should buy it, 1 min break down of nonsense ...😅

[@854Z]

Totally agree.

[@kaeganthornhill3936]

So true. And really I believe it could crank it down to about 3 minutes if wanted to. But he wanted to give each one enough time to dry down a bit to see if they Smell Similar during all Three stages. ( opening, dry down, finished heart notes)

[@snowmanstreaming]

As someone who's starting out in perfumery myself, I love your videos. Your way of breaking them down in details, and especially that you mention the ingredients and how they contribute to the perfume is very interesting.

[@lefragrance777]

For what it's worth, ROCHAS is a French house in the same level with Lalique, GUERLAIN, & YSL. ROCHAS is not like ARMAF, AJMAL, AFNAN, etc... The perfume manufacturer of ROCHAS is INTERPARFUMS, which is the same that manufactures/produces fragrances for JIMMY CHOO, & MONT BLANC.

[@anthonymitchell4487]

Yes

[@OmarZ77]

Afnan and Ajmal do unique fragrances. They’re not clone houses. Just because a house is “French” doesn’t mean it’s better. Amouage and Abdul Samad Al Qurashi are middle eastern houses that do much better perfumery.

Hi Aaron, bought Supernova, Notorious and Daddy and have so far tried the first 2. Amazing, especially Notorious. Hopefully one day you'll have some sort of facility in EU, because the import tax almost gave me a heart attack 😵‍💫

[@AaronTerenceHughes]

Hi. Untill Brexit and the customs union are sorted there isnt much we can do. We looked at a warehouse in the EU but the cost to send there and have them despach was insainly expensive. So I decided against it

[@jimlittle5769]

Daddy is my favorite of the 10 or so of his I've sampled. Can't wait to try Supernova.

[@Memovich47]

Another affordable option, which is even closer to Tuxedo, is The Tux by Maison Alhambra - definitely worth checking out!

[@jimlittle5769]

Yup, the best alternative is The Tux.

[@Memovich47]

@@silentsir2446 I love moustache, I've been buying it for years, though I think it's been reformulated - it's definitely not as long lasting as it used to be. The Tux is the superior clone, and lasts a long time - Tuxedo itself is more luxurious, though reletively short lived.

[@larrythompkins3319]

I bought the Tuxedo i think 5-6 years ago based on Cubaknow's hyping it up. It was pricey but worth it! Glorious patchouli, amber, spicey, slightly boozy orange. Later bought Moustache edp out of curiosity around 3 years ago + I heard rumors back then about YSL Tuxedo possibily getting discontinued and getting higher in price. The Moustache is impressive for it's price tag (4.1 oz heavy bottle. It smells great!) I like both, but Tuxedo just smells of better quality especially up close. In the air though, they smell very close. Aaron could you do a comparison between Baccarat Rouge 540 vs. Mancera Instant Crush or Chanel Platinum Egoiste vs Franck Olivier Eau de Passion?

[@EliteScentsOnly]

Cuba is a shill.The absolute worst one out there next to that dude that wears the same denim jacket each video. They have both been proven liars.

[@YouOnlyLiveOnce...]

40$ vs 400$ - ofc there is a difference but Rochas made a really good job for the price.

[@sorrysirmygunisoneba]

As a user of moustache, it is absolutely beautiful stuff.

[@ToriZealot]

of course it is ... enjoy what you enjoy

[@fatboy5926]

Tuxedo (to me) smells a little higher quality and I get more earthiness 🤷‍♂️ slightly maybe more patchouli than Moustache - but if there’s any tuxedo fans out there that are wanting to try Moustache try it. I’m not big on clones but this is a quality 1 for real

[@dannon76]

I have Rochas Moustache and really like it. I tried Tuxedo in duty free on a tester which I put in a pocket in my backpack. Opened the pocket and the fragrance bursted out, it is levels better, stunning. Differences, its the quality of blend and the naturals in Tuxedo which smells more linear, powdery and airy, just more luxurious and special and performance is good. The opening is very similar its actually in the drydown that Tuxedo shines. Moustache lasts longer and is more patchouli dominant to my nose, which makes it lean spicier and the blend is more piercing. Both are fantastic but Tuxedo is mega, I regret not buying it now 😅

[@CiprianFx59]

really? I put it on a tester in a duty free and by the time I was in my seat on the plane (1 hour) I couldn't smell anything. 2023 really is the year of reformulations apparently. Not many niche scents worth it anymore in my opinion. This year I only bought Aventus, Ganymede and Bois Imperial since no clones come close to the feeling those frags give me.

[@ToriZealot]

Tuxedo costs literally 10x Moustache at the moment. Nothing wrong with Moustache at this price.

[@B11-j8r]

Hi Aaron, you're doing, by far, the best reviews in the net. Maybe you could do reviews of: - Ralph Lauren 'Polo Blue' - Enrico G 'Oud Nobile' - Hermès 'Un Jardin sur la Lagune'

I really like these comparisons. I would really like to see Creed Aventus vs Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man

Yes. Especially since in the past Aaron has reviewed each individually. Would be interesting to see his thoughts on both since current day Aventus has changed a bit 👍

[@persephonesdad5792]

I have learned so much smelling a fragrance while listening to your reviews. Thank you ATH ❤

[@firstactionhero]

is it 200 dollars better?

[@rokinrandy]

There is a dirtiness to the mustache. Losing another $30 bucks for a bottle of water is pretty damn dirty !Everyone hyped this stuff up and said it was hard to find. Heck it’s hard to smell too. The base notes do come out in 10 minutes. But ehhh. I hope the Ysl is better. 🤦‍♀️ I never tried Tuxedo but I know Ysl has a good smell with their other offerings.

[@paulbunyan9436]

Moustache is nice, mellow and long-lasting now that I dab it once on my under-shirt...It is too potent to spray directly onto my skin....I had to learn how to use it.😁

[@darrendavies8407]

Never really replied to any of the fragrance review channels, but you Aaron are a standout!!! Love your views mate, really opened the eyes to behind the smells and some great advice. Thanks mate

[@CiprianFx59]

I had both and then sold the Tuxedo. Tuxedo smells more tamed like a gay scent or too grandma vanilic and Moustache more towards a man. Since I'm a straight man, the decision was easy and also for the money, Tuxedo is way overhyped for nothing in my opinion. Let's be honest, Moustache is also not a piece of art but at least the price is fair and the scent is better blended. (to my nose anyway).

[@whisky8624]

Great beard, I like it! (I know, this comment is 10 months late). I like the masculinity, that beards add.

[@blogityblah]

I haven't tried Tuxedo but own the other whose name which shall not be mentioned, because I hate the name as it evokes images in my head of a guy sporting a waxed handlebar which he strokes non stop.

Aaron, can the ink on your arms activate any of the compounds within the cologne causing it to have its own unique aroma?

[@highentropy2468]

I bought the YSL Tux a few years back but then got into Perfume Parlour clones, bought their interpretation and was blown away by how close the fragrance was. I had both on each wrist and could not tell them apart. It's ludicrous people continue to spend such incredible amounts of cash on designer or niche fragrances for the sake of having a fancy bottle or packaging. You can argue more expensive fragrances may have the odd natural aroma within the blend but for the most part these huge fragrance houses are RINSING people for what is, in most instances, no different to the ingredients in a clone perfume.

The fragrance community needs to stop doing this! Gradually, clones are being made to look like they are originals or stands alones. Moustache is clearly a clone of Tuxedo. If we have a problem with the price of Tuxedo..that’s fine but to make Moustache look like it’s some creation on its own is not good for the community.
