- Опубліковано 22 лип 2022
- Amouage Reflection 45 is my most complimented cologne. In one evening I received more compliments than I have for any other fragrance. I asked Perfumer Aaron Terence Hughes to smell it and tell me why people love it so much!

I would love to see a tables turned type of video. Where Aaron brings his favorite fragrances and has Chris smell them and decide whether he likes them and what he likes about them.
Such a good idea 100%
I can listen to Aaron talk all day. He's very knowledgeable!
‘If you don’t like it don’t buy it’.
Words to live by there.
Love how quick Aaron changed the topic of compliments. “Oh look at the bottle”
I have learned so much from Aaron. He is a chemist with real passion for perfumery. Great video. Amouage Dia is one of my favorites from the brand. Exceptional floral perfume.
Love Arron. He’s really done a great job at giving people a glimpse of what goes in this art of fragrance composition. I’ve been working on something lately that is giving me such a hard time. But it’s all worth it cuz we love it. 🖤🦄
Thank you so much for the collap lads, I'm definitely going to try out some ATH fragrances soon, more videos together please!
The best fragrance duo in the game .. I love when Chris triggers Aaron and gets him started .. you can feel his passion 🤣👏🏼👍🏼great video again guys.
I always love you two together. Aaron has so much know-how and so much to say, but he's always inherently shy. Chris really brings him out, and I enjoy how respectful the two men are of each other for their different strengths.
I agree, they have great chemistry. I also like the ideas that Chris brings to videos, as well as the questions he asks. Aaron would probably keep it pretty linear (as he does in his own videos) which I love, but Chris just brings that x factor and outside pedestrian perspective.
don't listen. you didn't win this is a scam
I love hearing Aaron talk about fragrances and break them down like he just did. Thanks Chris for having videos with Aaron, so we can hear more of that. For me it’s more than just liking the fragrances scent. It’s learning about what goes into to each one and everything else so I really appreciate it. Keep having him coming on.
His hands alone can tell a story. The way he poetically moves his hands when describing notes, makes me wonder if people that know sign language can understand him.
@@oldschoolfunkster1 he'd have to be using sign language for people that know sign language to understand him you doughnut, they can't just make sense of random hand movements
@@robbiecale3327 ... I can understand some sign language because it has some common sense, international hand gestures of what they're trying to communicate.
Oh, and I love fresh donuts.
I enjoy watching this type of intelligent conversation about fragrance.
I just found this channel.
This was the absolute best format, of a fragrance review, that I’ve ever seen!
Was already a fan and follow
Aaron.
Will sub.
Took the plunge and purchased a bottle after your previous video Chris. It’s insanely good and already had a lot of compliments. A new favourite. Keep up the great work.
What a great video idea Chris, loved this
You can really see Aaron in his element when he's breaking down and analyzing notes!
ATH always love the collabo!
I remember I asked you a few weeks ago if you would do a vid on this fragrance with Aaron😄and you replied with just a 😉...so I have been waiting patiently, (well impatiently) 🤣🤣and here you deliver, thank you so much Chris 🙏🏼 loved the video❤️both of you really are a class act. Take care and much love 💙🏴
Love the Aaron collabs
i love this frag man. its amazing
Love Aaron’s opinion on frags. Please invite him on more videos 👍
I enjoy this channel so much more then gent scents, it feels like a dedicated show that's legit lol not some random UA-cam video pushed daily with no real substance.
Animalistic with sweet notes….he hit it on the head. When combined together, it creates magic!!!
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
Thx for this butifule review,, thx alot for inviting lovely aron,💗👏👍
The best part of watching Aaron talking 1fragrance is his body language.. people can say anything about a perfume , but you can actually watch his movements , facial expressions , and you can get the exact idea or visualize the shorta effect its gonna make on you and people around .
Awesome video. Love you both. Cheers
Thanks guys!! 🙏🏻
I need to try this brand. Seems to be great house. Good review
Having interlude 45 and epic 56 both are fantastic
Must say Aaron with beard and macho look is superb !
Aaron is such an artist. So unique.
Great video, as usual
I love perfumes and I also like R45 but I really really need those chairs 😍
YESSSSS AARON COLLAB!!!!!!!!!
I got a tester of this, the girls like it but I don't like the price it costs 😂
A lot of girls don't like the original reflection man, it's too feminine but most guys that smell it love it. I've seen a few girls test reflection man they all hated it
@@GrowingDownUnder This version 45 is different from the original, remembers something, but it changes. Take a look at the notes of both
Where did you bought the tester?
@@stefanotravaglini451 In Madrid, lesecretdumarais
Get it with a 25% discount code then 👌
Damn, Aaron is very inspiring personality. Thanks to Him, I am trying to learn some things about chemical side of perfumery. It has become my life passion.
He is a one in a million artist
Reflection Man is a fantastic fragrance that isn't the sort of thing I generally want to wear, but would love to smell elsewhere.
I'm curious of Reflection 45 would be different with its amped spiciness and woodiness and richness to balance the powder. Thoughts?
Cant wait to try ATH fragrances
Love the reviews you do with ATH. Would love to see you do a review of bergamask and get ATH views 👍
Love you guys
One of the best Duos on the FragCom
Cheers to you 2🏆
Those seats tho🔥🏆Class

Tried in Harrods a few weeks back. Its nice but as mentioned the price / scent value proposition doesnt work for me
I love amouage its my favorite house I own 8 ATM have not got the chance to smell this one or any of the newer ones yet ect meander enclave boundless I love reflection so I have to get a move on and get these samples lol .
best video ever, so clever
Hi . I'm curious to know from all viewers experience where do you purchase your fragrances? I'm wondering if the online stores are really less expensive than the stores. Thanks
You bought that bottle really quick as well, remember you made that video about the compliments at Esxence and basically had a bottle within days. I haven't tried R45 yet myself, I do like the original, but not that much. Don't like iris at all myself.
Chris, Aaron....any chance you guys have a bottle of smoulder left?....I just got into Aaron's frags around January and they are fantastic.....Im willing to pay double the amount that it retailed for.
And this is why xerjoff alexandria ii is my all time favourite. It’s soft and powdery with lavender and vanilla, but the Oud in the background sucker punches you in the face out of nowhere. It’s such a perfect balance
I get most compliments from a simple mix of Natural Sandalwood, Vetiver & Rose oil which I apply on my forehead
I just got another bottle of Reflection Man (original) new style bottle, and after discount it cost me £83!
Aaron is one of the nicer and less narcissistic people in the community.
Are you a psychologist?
I guess you're not a psychologist
@@professionalpookie Can the psychologist in you see that I was trying to say that the fragmental guy is narcissistic?
@@stonecharles7163 again, I guess you're not a psychologist
How does it compare to the original reflection man which is probably my favourite of all time
Now days it’s like “ok it’s good to hear you like the fragrance, but let me see what Aaron says about it before I buy it”
Yes! I've literally bought Invictus for my brother because Aaron really liked it
Dude totally
You say you will use this for the rest of your life? How long will this actually stay good for? Will it last longer being a higher oil content or spoil quicker? What is the life expectancy of a frag this expensive vs an EDP for example? Thank you!!
is the 45 also metallic like the original one?
Would love if you could get Aaron to comment on some of the clone house
Aaron is very honest guy about his opnion. Mental is a bit worried that Aaron saying some honesty here
Sounds like it became a expensive trip 😄 I have the OG Reflection Men and assume its very similar, just maybe a bit deeper and of course stronger.
The original lasts great for me, so will stick with that for now. I will definitely pick this version up in the future, though.
I find this very similar to alpha man & reflection man
Aaron is Sherlock Holmes and Chris Professor Watson.
Haha
Good review Chris & Aaron. Where did you find this discounted please Chris?
Escentual 👍🏻
@@FRAGMENTAL thank you!
Probably compliments are due to a perfume summit. Everybody just notices and compliments each other
I was thinking the same as the nature of the complimenters weren't revealed until I read your comment. Even still, this being his most complimented fragrance ever says something! Because I'm sure he has been to many other perfume summits before
Just ordered one little sample. Its quite expensive:) if i like it i will go for at least 10 ml more if not a full bottle
Did u like it lol?
I just got this from Saks Off 5th for $270
You need to review maison Alhambra scents under the lattafa house, they have loads of Tom Ford clones
Is sandal wood in it ???
I’d assume the safest way to start a conversation on the right foot with a fragrance reviewer is by complimenting how he/she/they smell.. knowing that, how do you discern a genuine compliment from a customary/polite/fake ones when you’re known as someone who reviews fragrance?

Aaron wish the beard is better as a philosopher of perfumery
Aaron used to irritate me because so much he said was purely negative. I've really come to appreciate his input, criticism, and break downs of the fragrances as he has grown.
You just wanted him to justify your purchase!! 😉😉
Compliments is the biggest myth in the fragrance community 🤡
I'm loving how Aaron hates compliments. Just shut that shit down instantly.
@@jamrollz he's so gay
You’d be surprised, I have over 50 bottles and most of them are niche. My most complimented fragrances are JPG Le Male and Layton.
@@jamrollz Why? Nothing wrong with that stop acting
@@stx7389 because its shallow, superficial, and yes deluded. No one care about your fragrance, they only compliment you if they notice you wearing it like bright colored shoes. It doesn't mean they like it, it just means they noticed you care and are messaging your ego.
OG Reflection Man is better and more intoxicating ❤
THANK YOU!
Im 16 and im ”fun” i dont have any fragrances. But i ihad to buy 2 wich ones should i buy (that women actully love) and I’m not very mature
"you triggered me into all of this" 😄😄
me too...im getting broke due to obsession with great perfumes
I can afford one bottle. Either Amouage Reflection 45 vs. Dior Homme Parfum. Which should I get? All opinions welcome. Thank you.
That’s a $400 difference… If you can afford Reflection 45, you might as well get both.
@@ajgunari Well, right now, Neiman Marcus has a deal for Black Friday. Amouage Reflection 45 for $375.
I think UA-cam fragrance reviewers get compliments from people that recognise them in public but don’t want to say that. 😂

Reflection 45 to me (at least my bottle) smells no different from og Reflection which is so disappointing to me.
I’m a simple man, I see Aaron’s handsome mug, I click
Just remember. When southern US people say “bless your heart”. They mean FU.
Compliments could mean you’re shockingly (smelly, beautiful, ugly, just shocking). Doesn’t always mean a good thing.
People who really want to fly below the radar.. the Grey Man if you will.. don't wear colognes lol
500 a bottle it better be fuckin amazing
Oh, it is!
First
How does it smell? Would it be good for 25yo man?
Depends on what you like. It could definitely work.
The original was one of the worst perfumes I’ve smelled so far. Headache inducing neroli bomb. That’s still my favorite thing about perfumery though. It’s all so subjective. There’s a lot of beauty in that alone.
Instead of this better buy Naxos Xerjoff
Don't blind buy it!
Chris was too sexy for Milan, too sexy for Milan, New York, and Japan.
Haha
Not a big iris fan. Medicinal? Sounds horrible!
I think he's lying
Stop with the finger and hand movements!
Also wtf is metallic Woods??
Bet he cares
Synthetic aromachemicals. Cashmeran, kephalis, karanal, some musks like Habanolide. All have a metallic woody vibe. 'Metallic' is like a hot iron smell. Used a lot in modern perfumery.
I’d guess it’s woody notes that also have a metallic smell.
Bois Imperial and Ganymede spring to mind. Akigalawood is quite metallic (in my opinion)
Thank you
How do you not like compliments from a fragrance or anything else for that matter 👀🫡
