@@travisr82 It’s actually the middle of the winter here but I think in the summer it could work too

@@mohamedsow8935 thank you!

@@chris.p88 my pleasure! Thanks for stopping by!

@@vikhelboy4184 Yes I remember it at least having civet and it makes the perfect sense. I think the animalic elements works really well in it

@@rossmcfarlane6687 I appreciate it, thank you 🙏

@tinkeviitanen subscribed!

@ that’s very kind thank you!

@@eauceylon1891 thank you my friend! Yes sadly the Edp has been discontinued and it really is difficult to find it without paying too much of it. But the Edt is truly amazing too 👌

@@Steve_D1974 Thank you Steve! Yes it is very difficult to find them. I found my Edp from Parfumo and it was much more tolerable investment than from Ebay 😀

@@samgrant83 thanks! Your week sounds wonderful! That Aramis 900 is a beauty and great take on rose. I like the earthy quality of it as a perfume. New York Intense has definitely a lot going on

​@@tinkeviitanen Was very Bernard Chant heavy - it's always worth getting Aromatics Elixir, which is really very close to 900, a great rose chypre. The standard Aramis is essentially Cabochard with a few extra spices.

@ Yeah I’ve also understood that they are very much similar.

@@dimitriorlov4542 It could be stronger yes I agree. On me it does work well enough though so I guess I can consider myself somewhat lucky

The new batches are really bad.. also have you tried Fièvre Verte by Kilian ?

@ yeah I’ve heard so unfortunately. I actually haven’t tried that Kilian yet

@@larrythompkins3319 I’ve actually had them both before and they are great! Have you tried the 1980’s Trussardi Uomo? I would suggest you to try it if you like those two, as it falls in to that style brilliantly in my opinon.

@tinkeviitanen I'll be on the lookout for that one. Thanks for the recommendation 😎

@@JeanPhilippe-sz2zo What a great house this is indeed. That sounds like a wonderful scent memory!

@@paav Oh really? That sounds nice! Salvi happens to be my favorite Läkerol flavour 😀👌

@@larrythompkins3319 I appreciate the subscribe thank you! Oh yes Chris is very cool and has a great taste 👍 Prada does have actually quite many good ones in my opinion. And I’ve tried Zaharoff Signature Pour Homme couple times when it came out so it’s been a long time now. But I enjoyed it and I could definitely see myself owning a bottle if it would be easier to get delivered here to where I live 😀

@@An-lj4up Unfortunately I haven’t tried that one. I had some very old vintage fragrance from Floris that was just called Sandalwood but it was a different one. Very nice too though

@@tinkeviitanen The Santal Intense has been released since 2024., I saw someone say it remind them of Envy or Eau Sauvage Parfum.

@ well those are really good to compare it to so I’m sure it’s a great fragrance too

@@raytang76 Thank you very much! I’m happy to hear that 🙏

@@vladyslavmd oh really? I will look up to it if I find a place where to try it :)

@@tinkeviitanen​​⁠roja it’s a next step in parfums world:) I suppose you will find them)

@ I’ve had few Roja’s and tried many of them but I think Great Britain is one of those bit more expensive ones from them so I’m not sure if we have it here in Finland but I will check 👌

@@tinkeviitanen Finland is amazing country. With love from Kyiv)

@ thank you and all my best wishes to Kyiv! 😊

@@SquallMonteZ Glad to hear thank you! Yes I truly enjoy all of those a lot as well. Bel Ami never goes out of style

@@edelkebap Oh yes I had a bottle of it quite early when it came out. It’s been now few years since I’ve smelled it but I liked the quite unique mineralic-leather aspect that worked really well as it had a lot of freshness to it as well.

@@PakoBar2717 I sometimes struggle trying to understand if it’s a leather or more like suede in some perfumes😁 But yeah the whole Bottega Veneta Pour Homme is really good in my opinion and they all have that great leather aspect in them (except Essence Aromatique).

@@Alwayscented Hello there! Great choices and I like that you especially mentioned Noble Leather as it doesn’t get mentioned much. I had a bottle of it like a year ago and it was really elegant take on what I remember being like a great mix of especially saffron and leather and had some bit sweeter element to it which worked really well

@tinkeviitanen I think it's one of the best leathers out there. It is a shame it was discontinued.

@@samgrant83 Glad you liked the list thanks! I’ve always liked Tuscan Leather and had it few times but always in the end ended up selling it as I rarely felt like wanting to wear it for some reason. I think Piguet as a house doesn’t get enough recognition and Bandit is one I’ve never tried from them so I’m curious to check it out. Thank you for the other mentioned ones as well!

@@rubikscubed731 So many great leathers out there to explore. I just few days ago wore Antaeus and it just always delivers. Such a great one!

@@remotemanagement4686 I’m sure there are some like that out there but from these none does

@@samgrant83 It’s been many years since I tried the Papyrus Oud but I remember really liking it. Bentley was also quite good. Yes the prices of Gucci PH are bit absurd and to me not justified. I actually still have this bottle as I just mostly want to be able to smell it from time to time and remind myself of the smell of it

@@samgrant83 Oh yes the old edp’s haven’t lost any of their magic in my opinion. Nowadays I only have 3x10ml travel sprays of this and the more recent formulation of the edp in the crystal clear bottle. Pour Homme Edt is really watery and thin nowadays so definitely the older bottles of that much better in my opinion.

@@tolis287 Glad to hear! To me as well!

@@samgrant83 You mentioned some really great ones in your selection. Penhaligon’s has many that I consider very nice for the office type of environment. Yes Canali is Bourdon’s work and I really like that one. More than Aventus actually 😁 also thank you for the recommendation, I’ll try to check it out!

@@tinkeviitanen I've smelled the Canali a couple of times a while ago, but I do have a bottle of the Thé Brun. Prefer both to Aventus, and while Bourdon isn't the signed perfumer on Aventus and it is the work of his protégé it's pretty clear he had some influence (more than Olivier Creed!!).

@@samgrant83 I actually never thought I would buy this and especially as it was only sold in 100ml bottles before. But last year it totally clicked with me and I knew I had to get a bottle. It’s interesting how the taste changes or you suddenly start to appreciate something you didn’t like at first. I’m very curious of that Santa Maria Novella one as it’s also a house I have no experience with but people I ”trust” seem to like their offerings so I’m sure I would enjoy exploring them

​@@tinkeviitanen Glad you like it, in the end it probably didn't stand out enough against other things in my collection. I would say the style of perfumery from SMN is closer to the Floris and other English perfumers style, slightly simpler scent structures, can be quite bold, often very focused on one note, like their Patchouli, but not so plush like a Guerlain or Chanel.

@@samgrant83 thanks! I actually agree that Antaeus is my preferred one too vs. Kouros especially as I’ve now worn Antaeus actually much much more and my god it’s nice. Even in it’s more ”current” version in my opinion. I’ve heard many good things about the older No.5 but I sadly haven’t tried it never. I think 🤔

@@tinkeviitanen I'd rather get a modern bottle of Antaeus than worry about old bottles, even if it isn't quite as animalic. No. 5 EDC doesn't rely on so many citrus notes, so can survive well, there a loads of 70's and 80's unsealed bottles around. It's so close to the original conception of No. 5 that its worth a smell, the modern versions are just far too floral and sweet.

@@steveb8269 Egoiste is always a great choice!

@@henrythornton7931 Prada is great! thank you for watching and I wish you a great day too

@@ericmiller2556 very nice to hear! I love Floris as a house and this fragrance a lot as well

@@tinkeviitanen My review: Leather Oud is a perfect gateway oud, in my opinion---it has all of the secure, comforting aspects of a traditional fragrance, -in this case a beautiful, classic leather note as well as other mainstays of masculine perfumery, such as vetiver and carnation- and uses it as the launch pad for an oud that is pure and deep. The first thing you notice is the expensive leather---not too long from being in the tannery and workroom--and then on to the deep, oily darkness of the Oud, underscored by the vetiver, amber and patchouli. The floral notes of carnation and geranium are so subtle that they play a true supporting role; as the name asserts, this is all about leather and oud. Gentlemanly enough to stroll down Jermyn Street, Leather Oud also has the dark and oily glow, edged with a dirty humanity that oud is so famous for. This boy may be wearing a bespoke suit and polished bench-made shoes, but there is some funk going on here. This is for the enfant terrible of St. James, the punk rocker of Savile Row who goes commando in his custom tailored suit. And is it just for the boys? I think so-it has too much of a well-bred testosterone note to be anything other than masculine. That said, on a woman with a taste for pinstripes this could be head turning.

@@ledovejpatek8803 Thank you! It’s one of my favourite jackets actually. At the moment bit too cold to wear it outside though 😀

@@ericmiller2556 That’s nice to hear! Thank you!

@@cheapimitation2242 Thank you and great to hear you share many of them too! Patchouli Absolu to me is brilliant. Sadly so hard to find nowadays though

Patchouli absolu is truly a fantastic fragrance , I have a bottle that I save for special occasions… I also adore the original oud wood fragrance but TF have reformulated it so I went searching and found one which is a hybrid of Patchouli absolu AND oud wood fragrance, it is amazing it’s by armaf uniq and it is called oud forever

@@speedwolf5212 thank you!

@@samgrant83 I feel like I’m done with the other 2 Ombre Leathers but this one really connected with me and I’m very happy to have it. And I haven’t never been able to try the Ombre Leather 16 version unfortunately

@@InterceptorOfDoom Both are truly excellent indeed!

Escada Pour Homme & Escada Magnetism are my favorites from the house 👍

@@larrythompkins3319 Both wonderful! I also like Casual Friday a lot!

@@ninacarmen8433 Oh really! Haha I love that 😁 But I do struggle with some fragrances for sure as for example some fragrances with very lactonic, milky qualities in them. I would love to have a signature fragrance but I maybe own bit too many fragrances to be able have such fragrance. French Lover is maybe closest thing to that as I’ve also finished a 20ml decant before this bottle.

@@sandileshongwe4750 thank you very much!

@@SquallMonteZ Egoiste really is so good! I also used to have the Incense-Suede version and it was really great. I can’t remember if it was any different to Testa di Moro. And thank you!

@@jamesnash7262 thank you! I do also love Habit Rouge Edp and actually own that too but to me the edt feels the most ”Habit Rouge”. I hope you will find yourself a botlle of Amber Pour Homme Intense!

@@triofan9 My pleasure and thanks for watching! I’ve tried a lot of different sandalwood fragrances and I keep coming back to Egoiste

@@abcap2011 Oh really? Wow, that’s not good news

@ no it’s not , gotta have a back up bottle for me

@ Good plan!

@@samgrant83 That’s interesting as I haven’t actually never heard of this A Quality Of Flesh fragrance. It does sound interesting based on your description. Thanks for the comment and bringing that fragrance to my attention

@@thatman-t8f thank you for an honest feedback and I do appreciate that. I did want to be careful with my words in that video and I do consider that I only commented about the art part. And the art is not something I consider as ”my thing” so I just wanted to give my thoughts how it connects with the actual perfume or at least how it feels to me when I wear it. But I understand your point and thank you for letting me know about it :)

@@tinkeviitanen You are totally right in that respect: it is cartoonesk but, indeed, also objectifying, a stereotyping “pin up” style, “artistic” but not necessarily stylish or tasteful. And in that sense you are 100% entitled to distance your self from it. I may have misinterpreted “sexual identity” and “it is simply not my taste”. Apologies if I did. Anyway: your reviews are clear, to the point, you know how to convey the character of a perfume in a comprehensive story, free of hypes. And, weirdly maybe, I would love to hear your take on the new Trussardi release, Primo? I think it would kind of fit your bill.

@@thatman-t8f Thank you and I do apologize too as sometimes I might not be clear enough with my outcome using a language that’s not my main one. I actually haven’t tried Primo yet as I think it’s not at least yet being sold in any stores here. I will give it a go if I cross ways with it somewhere 🙏
