In this video I talk about the 3 main reasons why perfumes get reformulated. What once use to smell great nowadays smells mediocre, and that is mainly because of material regulations and bans. IFRA (International Fragrance Association) is the main entity which controls such regulations. Another Key player when it comes to changes in perfumery are big companies such as L'Oreal and Estee Lauder. Tune in for more details

The reason for “reformulations” is simple... greed. The weaker the scent, the more you spray, the faster you empty the bottle, the sooner you have to repurchase.

@dimitrisignaturescent1766 4 года назад

Yeah man that's pretty much how big companies stay relevant and increase their asset value...

@jujuguy2323 3 года назад

Yes, but in the long run that hurts business. Most people will catch on to this trend of weak fragrances and stop buying them and look for other alternatives. Most people want their money’s worth when buying any product

@archismarathe1589 3 года назад

Plus, less money required to actually make the fragrance

@justinhight235 3 года назад

I’m sure in some cases but a lot has to do with chemicals or natural materials being banned so they have to be replaced. Also some natural materials become more expensive so they replace with a synthetic one also at times they change it on purpose to make it more Mainstream as tastes change. There are many reasons

You said it all.

@Sunflower-lv9iu 4 года назад

Great video, thanks for your insight. It’s sad to see what’s happening to the art of perfume making. So many fragrances now smell like they were made in a lab instead of a perfumery. I wonder if L’Oreal & Estée Lauder also influenced IFRA to restrict natural ingredients so they have an excuse to use cheaper synthetics, therefore make more money.

@Up-To-Speed 3 года назад

Because L'Oréal and Estee Lauder reformulate a lot of masterpieces, I have refused to buy their products, altogether! I'm done!

@JT-rx1eo 2 года назад

And this is the way to fight it! If, and only if, the parties responsible for canceling are themselves CANCELED, will this ever be changed. Just make sure those parties know the real reason why their values are deteriorating. Otherwise they will make up their own false narrative to explain it.

@kingchaos6050 2 года назад

I would like to do the same. How do we find out what perfume brands have been bought out by them?

I’ve adored many scents that were reformulated. I wish I’d known it was going to happen so I could have stocked up. It’s the worst to realize what you cherish is gone for good, and I wish it was illegal. Thank you for this video.

Regulations that aim to ban carcinogenic ingredients is a good move. People would feel better knowing that the fragrance makers comply with health regulations and a perfume won't cause potentially contribute to cancer. Another issue is that perfume should not be applied on skin because the ingredients that fall under the term of "perfume" could be anything - including potential hormone disruptors and carcinogens. If people didn't apply perfume on skin, they could probably avoid the skin allergies. It'd also increase the longevity of perfume - Dior perfumes can last one month on clothes. Moreover, perfumes should not be over sprayed - this could cause allergies, headaches, and health problems to other people who have to breathe in someone's perfume.

Dear Dimitri, Thanks for giving us an insight into fragrance reformulations and giving us information about other brands. Curious to know please can you recommend your favourite Patchouli and Oud and Patchouli and Leather from your collection. Thanks a million

@dimitrisignaturescent1766 4 года назад

Hey man, thank you for the comment. Nice choices of notes, I m a freak for all three of them.. So far my best oud is Sahraa Oud, best Patchouli is Psychedelique by Jovoy and best leather is definitely Anubis by the house of Papillon, my girlfriend prefers Tuscan Leather though lol. Take care

@christopherbird2739 3 года назад

I was arguing with someone today about this, I was saying kilian fragrances aren't as good as they used to be and they were saying kilian NEVER reformulates fragrances ever haha they definately arent as strong or long lasting as they used to be

@rafadydkiemmacha7543 2 года назад

This is very true. All Killian fragrances have been castrated. They have good openings and then fade away in less than hour to become a skin scent. That's how they do it now - tempt you with an opening and then you need to reapply in a few hours.

@reginabelton7932 Год назад

I was just saying 🤷 😕 this kilian fragrances are getting thinner, not as strong or long lasting as they were years ago...Very disappointed 😔 edp"s are smelling like drugstore edt's....I started buy fragrances from Dubai...luxurious ❤

@soniasobaro9127 3 года назад

Many thanks for the video. I just bought Cuir Ottoman from Parfum D´Empire which I love but this time I feel that it has much more citrus in the beginning and it is somehow plain. I am not a specialist but I would say this was reformulated. Do you know this house?

@dimitrisignaturescent1766 3 года назад

Hey Sonia, I love Parfum d'Empire, Cuir Ottoman has been out for almost 15 years therefore its a mathematical certainty that it went through a few reformulations. I only tried the latests version and did not find it as amazing as the reviews state.. very unfortunate.. My favourites from the ones I tried are Musc Tonkin, Le Cri, Azemour and Tabac Tabou ;)

Fragrances are watered down and nothing is done. I’ll bet my next check if all liquor were reformulated and watered down, people would be up in arms and screaming like hell

@danlightened 2 года назад

I was just telling this to my friend yesterday. First, they will use good ingredients and in proper concentrations and once it's gotten popular, they'll dilute it. We may have tested it, or used it and loved it or just wanna buy it cause people hyped the actual juice but now we're left with a shadow of its actual self.

Hello Dimitri, I just have a question : I see that you have a lot of fragrance samples, aren't you afraid that the scent will deteriorate over time? I read that between one and tree years old the scent of perfumes could change Thank you in advance !

@dimitrisignaturescent1766 3 года назад

The scent will definitely oxidize over time, the reason I own so many samples is because they allow me to decide whether a certain perfume is worthy of a full bottle purchase. The ones I don't enjoy I simply keep in a drawer and forget about 😅

@The Generic Reploid afraid really isn t a term I ever used. I'm all for change when it adds value instead of substracting it. The point of the video is to explain how reformulations work, no more no less

@dimitrisignaturescent1766 4 года назад

@The Generic Reploid unfortunately money plays a huge part in all of this, just take Tom Ford s private Blend as an example, they now release Intense versions of most of their perfumes for an extra 100+ dollars. Those Intense versions are actually what the fragrance use to be before they were bought out by Estee Lauder. They they cut down on formula cost for the regular private blends and then create a new product labeled INTENSE which will make them tons of money with zero marketing cost... Gravy.. Now its up to you to discover brands that are actually worth the asking price, I sure did.

I purchased parfum de Marley Layton recently and have been extremely disappointed and pissed off with it’s longevity about 2 hours and then becomes a very subtle skin scent on the dry down,such a waste of money and it puts you off trusting other top perfume houses.I’ve had perfume parlour scents that lasted longer and a fraction of the price so maybe that’s the way to go in the future.

@aleksandrakostov4991 3 года назад

Oui Salut mon amie . I agree this whole new wave or men's fragrance's over the last few years have been really disappointing . Your paying the same or now higher price for something hat is very lack luster -and doesn't last past 3' 4 hours or so. Yes being bought out by a major company 'can be a great thing or the worst thing to happen .

@dimitrisignaturescent1766 4 года назад

Hey man, its sad but unfortunately that's how major corporations grow their value, they see it as an investment.

@arieslove6144 4 года назад

Exactly -however 'a lot of times people shouldn't their sell their original product. Yes you will make 'if your smart a huge profit off of it' and use it to fund our own line ect ect 'where you wont have to change your product.
