One of the most knowledgeable and elegant fragrance reviewer here on you tube... BIG FAN.. many congratulations and all the best sir.. LOVE 💕 from INDIA.
It’s speaks volumes of your good taste that your favorite houses are Guerlain and amouage! Spot on! For me it has to be Guerlain, Dior, Fort and manle and amouage
Was not aware how much Sultan Qaboos bin Said had to do with Amouage but I long suspected it to be so. He was one of the truly exceptional leaders around. Thanks for this video, AC.
Thoroughly enjoyed this special video! Amouage is an amazing house and so glad it was you who took us on your fragrance journey with amouage! Cheers and many more years for you and your RU-vid channel
Congrats on the 350th episode AC! You were the first YT reviewer that I truly respected when I began my fragrance journey and are now my #1 trusted source because I could tell you're truly passionate about perfumery. I'm taken back because I literally learn something new every time I watch your videos. Amouage is also my 2nd favorite niche house after Guerlain (Yes, I consider them niche). It first started with your review of Dia Man....At the time, I was just starting my collection and wanted to dabble in niche territory. I had to pull the trigger after seeing your reaction. I recieved a non-magnetic, un-reformulated bottle of Dia Man and couldn't believe how breath-taking that juice was. I never smelled anything like it and knew I never would. It was everything and more I expected from the quality of ingredients to the bold uniqueness....I just knew Amouage was the real deal and have been a loyal fan of theirs ever since. As AC stated in this review, Amouage is an experience. Alot of their frags are not for everybody, as they can be unapologetically bold and daring. That's what I expect and prioritize from a parfum I'm paying premium dollars for. With that being said, if you're wanting to get into niche frags the house of Amouage is a great place to start. As somebody who is fortunate enough to own the entire Man and some of the Library Collection), I would also confirm AC's reviews and easily recommend these masterpieces: Dia Man, Memoir Man, Beach Hut Man, Epic Man, Lyric Man, Jubilation XXV, Bracken Man, Portrayal Man, Reflection Man, Interlude Man, Overture Man, and the list goes on.... Keep up the fantastic videos AC! I always look forward to your videos as do the thousands of others who follow you for your brilliant content. Stay safe!
Thanx AC for nice & comprehensive review as usual.Try Opus VII as soon as possible...its brilliant,dark greenish ,,mysterious scent,the best in library collection IMO....
What a way to celebrate the 350th episode, congrats sir. I was in Oman from 2010 - 2019 and everything you said about Sultan Qaboos was absolutely true to the core, he is considered as the GOD FATHER of Sultanate of Oman. An interesting fact, unlike other Gulf countries you can’t find skyscrapers in Oman and 10 story is the maximum allowed height as per the royal decree it’s coz Sultan Qaboos was a simple man and a nature lover. I thoroughly enjoyed the video and thanks for bringing nostalgia about Oman in me and also for bringing back the intro music (plz don’t remove it in future) I got my Sunshine, Memoir and Gold Man today, perfectly synced with the video😃 Thank you sir 🙏🤝👌
Great Video My Friend, you really gave me a whole different point of view about the exact ones I'd like to add to my Collection. I have Interlude and Jubilation 25 so far. Thank you very kindly for your input........🙏🏾🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
What a great video!! It almost seemed that I was taken on a journey of Amouage. What wonderful choice of words that describe each emotions. Also flashing of apt images in between made it so amazing. Wonderfully crafted video. Keep up the good work!!
Great review AC!!! So beautiful😁..... not only did I enjoy listening to your review but also learn the history of this house..... you would be an awesome TEACHER!!!!
Outstanding video on an outstanding channel! Congratulations on your 350th episode AC! Really enjoyed this one, great overview of Amouage’s history. Will be interesting to see how it pans out under the new creative director’s leadership. Cheers! 🍻
Yes AC! You saved a classic collection video for a special occasion; I like it! Great video as always. Dia Man is phenomenal (also one of my favourite fragrances), and for me personally is the only one I can get much wear out of (your review was the final decider before I bought it by the way). I love Amouage for their artistry, but find it hard to find occasions to wear most of them. Keep the videos coming mate, here’s to episode 700! (PS I feel your pain with the hair, I’m dying to get mine cut! 😂).
Been away from fragcom; still regret being so busy & not commenting on one my fav reviewer's posts. Alwyas give the views & likes. Congrats on 350 vids. Thanks for the history lesson and for the informative, passionate portayal of your impressive collection. Have loved Amouage since trying Jubilation and Interlude. While I mostly collect hated inspirations, I treasure my real Memoirs. Beach Hut does work and spring, fall days while Black Iris and Portrayal are my latest favs. Need to re-up on Journey sample for more testing. Hitting up the Gold review while I try wearing my sample tomorrow. Thanks for the vids!
WOW, what an amazing video AC with the background history, simply brilliant. Congrats on the 350th video, keep rockin. I had the same thoughts when I saw the intro, it was a pleasant surprise. Amazing collection, but no reflection man? lol
I recently acquired Memoir and Lyric woman. I have Dia woman on the way. I am obsessed with smelling them. Their complexity is so rewarding, but it is their undeniable beauty that has me hooked. They are stunning at every stage. These are the first Eastern fragrances I've smelled, not counting the more commonplace Indian scents like nagchampa and the oil blends found in my local US co-ops, like Krishna Musk (an all-time favorite of mine). The Amouages that I have smelled rival the best of Guerlain and Chanel. Thanks for the video!
Happy #350! I am biased because I LOVE this House BUT I really enjoyed this review. I need to try the Library & Renaissance Collections. Today, I wore Jubilation XXV.
Great review. Some good choices (Jubilation, Memoir) but missing some of the unsung greats - Bracken, brilliant modern take on fougere. Fate, smooth and alluring in a Tom Ford kind of way. Figment, for its transformation from soil to transcendent complexity. Honour, strongly woody pepper classic masculine but very niche at the same time.
Hey AC, Congrats on 350 videos. Love your videos they have so much heart and soul in them very rare to find nowadays. Btw Summer and spring are right around the corner, what are some of your favorites for the warmer weather.
Stunning collection! Love Amouage. It is in my top 3 houses. I've enjoyed all the ones I've smelled so far except Interlude. I am surprised I had a difficult time with Interlude since I enjoyed Figment. I think it is the dried oregano note. I need to give it more time. Thanks for the review.
Great review AC, you share my views in Guerlain and Amouage .. Have decants of all of them you mentioned except Epic. Also you've not got interlude like me 😂😂
U hv been doing tremendous mining in perfumery I think u will do extra ordinary in this channel mark my words... Some big things happens in your perfume journey....
Oh .. beautiful review. Those stories that tell fragrances .. wonderful. Thank you ..and I will be watching your perfume channel. You are incredibly talking about the world of fragrances. SUb ..! 👍😃
Congrats on 350 brother top channel for sure. I took a small punt into Amouage honestly on good deals I stumbled on ie,Beloved man beautiful but no legs it vanishes quite quickly Myths man said to have a urinal cake vibe hmm I don’t make a habit of huffing in anything in gents toilets nasty habit folks should not indulge in lol, I do enjoy this fragrance but my 3rd and final frag is Opus I V it’s a cumin,coriander fragrance and my favorite of the trio I will acquire Gold and Jubilation at some point for sure be blessed and stay safe peace out ✌️
Good to see you Bren! I haven't tried Myths yet. I am really looking forward to add more from the Opus line for sure. I am quite certain you will like Gold. Jubilation doesn't have beastly projection so it might surprise you.
@@SmellsGoodfragrancereviews I’m sure I will enjoy them my friend I just have to commit to buy and not get distracted with new so called limited niche releases lol I’m a sucker for sure I must now stick to the tried and true classic masterpieces hmm I may be weakening already stay tuned and I will report back on my beady eye finds lol 🙏🙏
I like Amouage but they have terrible performance / longevity on me. I had to downsize to 3 bottles because after a short while I was unable to smell the other ones. I had to get rid of some great smelling ones like Jubilation, Epic and Beloved because of this. Maybe the new formulations don't last, or having been purchased from discounters? Beginning to think from now on I should bite the bullet and buy from the brands or reputable retail (non-discount) directly.
I got Lyric man and I love it so much. what else you can recommend from amouage? I am thinking about reflection and something else more powerful and unique. Lyric man have bought blind.
As always an excellent review A.C. Can i make a suggestion for you, I have just purchased a Fragrance by Lattafa called Qaa'ed, 100ml, Eau de Parfum. £14.99, My word what a fantastic fragrance, And fantastic presentation to, Very much a niche fragrance, Absolutely stunning. Oud vanilla, Amber, Leather, Spices. Wow Give it a try my friend i think you will be amazed at how rich and opulent this is. All the best and good luck.
@@SmellsGoodfragrancereviews Since i live in Pakistan, suggest according to weather please. I have never tried any of these , i love complex and classy manly scents?
@@SmellsGoodfragrancereviews great thank you AC! Been binge watching your videos, I love the style of this video which is based on emotions. All I can say is ur recommendations had made up 70% of my shortlisted frags to buy in the future.
