Perfumer Reviews 'Layton Exclusif' by Parfums de Marly 

My favorite reviewer . No presentation review no extra shit . Strait to the juice. Passionate and knowledgeable is what I would say to describe ya Aaron!

Aaron Terence Hughes i absolutely love you and your review style. Since seeing you on Chris's Channel, I'm hooked.

Layton Exclusif is my favorite fragrance out of my collection. It just smells incredible and lasts all day for me. Sweet, spicy, powdery, dark. Autumn/Winter signature scent worthy.

Aaron you’re god send! I was so looking forward to this review!

Absolutely loving the reviews Aaron, so thorough and very intelligently reviewed in a unique way. Cheers!

I just wanted to say that I love your reviews. It's so great to see a reviewer who is also a perfumer and so can give insight into what has actually gone into the scents you review. I haven't tried all the perfumes you make but have enjoyed the ones I have bought. Thank you for making a difference.

I absolutely love how you explain what you are smelling. Unique and amazing! ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you for bringing us the viewers such an amazing and in depth view of these fragrances. Especially from more expensive Houses like Tom Ford and PDM. Keep up the fantastic work!!

This was my first foray into PDM...and it spoiled me. They have some great scents, but nothing quite as phenomenal as this. One of the few that I went out and bought a second bottle. To me, it's a perfect scent. One of the very few that made me go "oh damn." It has a sort of fullness in my nose that many scents fail to achieve. As for the projection, I can smell it from at least arms length for me. I'm sure it goes beyond that. It's a scent that just sticks around.

We need a Layton vs Layton Exclusif video asap

Keep it up .. you’re reviews are killing it, you will be a PRO- BLEM to many other popular frag reviewers. I’m glad your production has been more refined as well so it doesn’t detract from your message.

Hands down my favorite PDM...It's sexy, dark, elegant, mature, masculin... A masterpiece imo

Me and my girlfriend really enjoy watching your fragrances presentations, thank you from east texas

Been waiting on this review for soooooo long

Excellent review. Good job Aaron

I do admire your brilliant descriptions of the notes in the many fragrances you review.... Make me want to buy everything ...

Another stellar fragrance review. I prefer the Exclusif over the original. Much more complex. Love PdM frags.

Love the editing. 👊

This one of my favourite houses and this is one of their best. Great review!

you r not only a fab reviewer / creator of perfumery, but an artist truly. The vocabulary & body language to how you review is quite a spectacular thing. Keep it up...I'll order soon from your company x

I'd love to see you do a video consist of 10 out of 10 fragrances. Thanks for this review; you are the best!

I love this juice as well. Thanks for a great review!

Excellent thorough and detailed review....I ordered the perfume....and can't wait to check it.....

I walked into a department store with purchasing a new Tom Ford Ombre Leather as my current one is almost empty. Decided to have a look what else was available and the attendant took me through a bit of a journey with different perfume houses. She picked out Layton Exclusif for me to try. Probably one of the only parfums that really made me smile. It's very much my taste and does not smell like anything I've had before. Bought only the 75mL as she said I would only need 2-3 sprays. I adore this parfum.

Aaron I just want to say how IN LOVE I fell for Onyx, I was expecting to love slut more since it’s your best seller, but Onyx stole my heart. I’m not always into patchouli, but the way you blended it in their is just delicious! 🖤 much love from USA

Yess! Back to my favourite house! I agree about it being way too heavy and sticking to the skin! Beautiful perfume but I think I need to get others before I get this one. Another awesome review Aaron!

One of my faves from PDM. I like it more than the original Layton. Soo good! Glad you got to try it out!

Thank you for this review. Well done and just getting in to your videos. Refreshing. Request - PLEASE REVIEW KALAN! I am itching to hear your breakdown.

Just got this and absolutely love it. To me, It’s one of the sexiest fragrances I’ve ever smelled. First wearing of it I started to heat up! lol. I’m happy you enjoy it, as well

Finally...very happy it turns out that my favorite perfume got very good marks by you🥰

Wicked review buddy as always 🙌🏻🦄🙌🏻🦄

My favorite PdM alongside Herod. I tell everyone that says PdM makes designer style fragrance to try this. I love how this changes also, it's a rollercoaster, does a complete 180 to a smoother creamier scent in the drydown. I don't even like Layton at all really, but the Exclusif is amazing

Just ordered this, can't wait

Love the review! When is your next new release? By the way I absolutely love your new bottle packaging. I smile every time I put the cap back on and it makes the cling noise.

I’ve always said “if this was a crime scene the cadaver would be the fragrance and Arron would be the pathologist” the way he breaks down the fragrance down to the DNA 🧬 down to the molecules and explains it it’s like his preforming an Autopsy. Amazing work Arron.

Yes, would love to hear your take on Habdan, and Montales Arabian Tonka, would love to see your reactions, and some Boadicea the Victorious reactions🙏

Great review. Very experienced breakdown of the experience with Layton Exclusif. I just blind bought a partial bottle. Looking forward to getting my nose on this. On a side note, I just got a sample of Onyx from Maxaroma. IT’S PHENOMENAL!!! At first sniff, I didn’t know what to think, but as I allowed it to develop, I was drawn in. Looking forward to sampling your other offerings. Holla.

I really love your review on the perfumer’s perspective. On my skin I got a very impact of Isobutyl Quinolone and I can’t get rid of this smell.

Enjoyed the video Aaron. I hope that you get to Review Akaster in the coming Fall. I alternate between it and Oud Fluer.

I doubt you realize even after all the other comments that say this exact same thing but you and your content on this channel are INSPIRING. I love that you review as a craftsman and not a consumer. I could not agree more with this review, I love this scent but it’s projection is very tame.

First! Great work as always Aaron

You deserve it after testing Oud Wood Intense. Can’t wait till you review the apple, caramel, saffron, myrrh monster, Habdan. PLEASE SOMEBODY SEND HIM HABDAN

Great video.. I enjoy this as well ..aroma from heaven

Fckng love your reviews. Love from germany

PDM is my favorite house and this is one of their best! The heaviness puts it over the top for me. Not a big fan of the original Layton but Exclusif is one of my favorites! Great review!! 👍🏼

Very Nice Aaron! Have that one plus 8 others! Love that House!

I like the citrusy brightness of Layton but much prefer the stronger incense, tobacco and mild sweetness of Herod. From the description I'll definitely have to give this a try.

My most favorite perfume ever. Every time I smell it it blows me away.

100% agree...I love this one!

Fell in love with this fragrance. One of my favorites I own next to tf fabulous. Heard the hype around carlisle so I bought the sample set from pdm. First one I pulled out was carlisle a d was disappointed. Not because it didn't smell good but because it smells just like spicebomb. So trying the rest of them layton I fell in love with. Such an amazing fragrance

You are inspirational! Thank you

I love your passion and drive for fragrances!! I have a fragrance review channel but My true passion is to one day become a perfumer ! And you Inspire me to keep striving for it ! Thank you for what you do . Maybe one day you could show me how it’s done 😁

PDM is pure love!!! I have Layton Exclusif, Herod, Carlisle, and Haltane. Love all of them!

Hey there aaron! I knew youd love this one, it was my first niche perfume. I also notice that it doesnt as you said "extend" although it leaves a very intoxicating sillage. As a perfumer, are there any way you can help the fragrance or any fragrance at that project more without losing their beautiful composition? Just wondering. I love your content please make some more! Cant get enough of your reviews 😆

I like your description of perfumes ,interesant 👍

Pun intended, but you are a breath of fresh air on YT fragrance reviews, Aaron

My favourite PdM since its release! Carlisle comes close, but the dirtiness is what makes LaytonX exciting. Pardon me, Layton Sexclusif. 🤭

U are THE BEST IN THE GAME... STRAIGHT TO THE POINT..NO BS.. 💯

Best perfume channel ever.

I have both Layton and exclusif, and yes I love exclusif much more. Layton feels light and doesn't have oompf i like.

I bought OAJAN blind because you loved it. The same with Nasomatto Pardon. I’ll buy this now because you love it. Out of all reviewers I trust your nose the most. Plus love your attitude and body art. You might want to consider doing a top 5 niche fragrances. Keep up the good work dude. Peace.

Hey, your reviews are awesome thank u🙏 I have a question plz Regardless of the occasions in which u can use both perfumes that am going to mention, which one is considered to be more beast mode in terms of projection,sillage and longevity Dior homme parfume or layton from PDM? I know that they could not be compared side by side but am only asking about which has a better performance. Thank you in advance 🌷❤

I wear a copy of this, and it is absolutely to die for. So, I can only imagine how beautiful the genuine version of it is.

Great review my friend! I thought Layton exclusive is amazing also! I think I'm gonna do a 50/50 layer with the regular Layton just to add some playfulness while retaining the depth of Layton exclusive. I just hope they aren't using real civet. Also I just received a decant of oud wood and I was blown away! Never smelled anything like it.

Aaron you are a talented man

Love, love, love your reviews. Your voice has such a beautiful ton, I could watch and hear your reviews for hours.

This and Carlisle sort of 'dance' with my olfactory senses. PDM has a knack for assembling fragrances with such exquisiteness.

Great review, what fo you think about this vs JV dark rebel? I think they have a similarities...

Hi Aaron! Hope you're well :) If one would layer this fragrance with another fragrance, which one would you recommend?

Aaron i love arabica:) did you change the formulation because on your Website are listed Different notes than before? Which dark fruits are in this fragrance? I love it just interested what it is i am smelling :) Thank you 😊 🇩🇪

I am both somewhat impressed and flattered, when i described layton exclusif once i said : "take layton adn, but it in the back, then add a bit of kouros for the animalistic notes and some oud wood on how the wood freshness yet acidity is done" Quite crazy you have the same way of thinking about it, and flattering for me as you're a great perfumer.

I blind bought this because I wanted something very special for special occasions only and given the review I think I made the right choice.

Aaron where did you get your hair done? Looks awesome

Do you smell real authentic Oud in this one ?

I really would love if there would be an Herod exclusif

Aaron they say Layton has been reformulated! Wondering if Layton smells the same as the vintage bottle i own? Wondering if you got to smell this new version they are talking about! Maybe some time you could do a video on the reformulation of Layton!

Nice video as always. Off topic: Is there a MOLECULAR reason why top notes, heart notes and base notes behave the way they do?

Two things Aaron tough me A: Jasmine-hediom gives lift to formulation B:linalool especially is an allergen(understanding red dots on my skin as primary material) Keep educating us and please make available your art as soon as possible

Love youre reviews... Can you review Tizana Terenzi Orión tnx

One of my favorite PDM... suits my personality well.

Hey Aaron, i wonder if Parfums de Marly Carlisle is on your testing list. Would be really interesting to hear your thoughts!

Aaron out of all of the Parfums de Marley you’ve reviewed. Which one is your favorite?

Absolutely wears like the value for the money... I think it's great for a date to draw someone in.

Nice, please do the Givenchy Gentleman 1974 review! The one and the only gentleman, the best from their releases! Thank u!

Fantastic review. Makes me want to go get it. You know something? This house would do well to make you a brand ambassador.

That was very interesting what you said about the animalistic accord, because I have a patchouli dominant fragrance that smells slightly animalic to me, although it doesn't have any dirty notes in it. The naughty pacthouli based accord gives that false animalic impression, obviously.

This is beautiful even in hot weather. Just like xerjoff oud star serie.

Will there ever be a review of the OG Layton? 😊

You should do a review on MUSC RAVAGEUR!! It would be really interesting because it sounds a fragrance like your taste!

Aloha Aaron! What is the scent on the dry down of both Neon and Slut? It’s beautiful! I don’t think I’ve smelled this before.

Hey Aaron, why dont you review 24 Gold ? For me it Is perhapes even better scent than LE , i think it Has high auality notes too, but Is 5 Times cheaper. But it Smells sooo expencive! I would love to hear your opinion about 24 GOLD.

Great review!👌 is there real oud in here?(:

Hello Aaron! Which should i buy Layton exclusif or Herod?

The civet node can be a bit off putting to some, but i personally like exclusif because of it

We need someone to properly review the body shop white musk for men. Hint hint😉😉😂 Loving these reviews!

Could this be pulled off in the summer? Thanks in advance

I have both. Love them. They are soo good 🤭 Can't wait to try in cooler weather boss bastard and alpha Man. For the summer they are too strong for me. 😁

It’s sooooo goooood.

Aaron do you prefer Layton exclusive or rather the original composition, Layton.

Aaron, do you like this better than the original?
