Your voice would be perfect for audiobooks
Asmr voice
Maybe if his dyslexia doesn't easily allow, he can allow in AI model of his voice to be used for that.
And gps would be dope
I like when Aaron drops little nuggets of wisdom when it comes to perfumery. He tells us the secrets of the industry which is very generous. Thanks Aaron!
Oh My God THAT eye roll never gets old😂😂😂
Hahaha! So heavy! 😅
hahaha first thing 1 noticed in video as well xDD
Sassy eye roll that 😄
Don't ever change Aaron. Love your reviews, it's like ASMR to me ❤
I don't understand 90% of what he's talking about, but I keep watching!
Keep watching, you will learn what he is talking about very quickly, I’ve learned SOOOO much by just watching and listening to him.
Agreed with the other response, he's the main reviewer I watch now, so the chemistry info sinks in over time. Not that there's anything I'll ever do with it.
Excellent analysis and review! I wanted to briefly compliment the video and audio quality in your most recent reviews. The lighting is wonderfully natural and I appreciate the more naturalistic editing, too. (I appreciate the fewer edits/cuts and enjoy the more natural pacing in your remarks, too.) Thank you for sharing your thoughts and review of this one! I almost wore this fragrance this morning, too!
Two things:
1.) GPB100 for 100mil of this is insane. Maybe prices over there are much higher. I got the 100mil here in the states for about US60.
2.) I honestly feel that the Pour Homme line from Versace is amazing. basic pour homme, dylan blue, and oud noir are just stellar. I don't know if I can say about about any other entire line.
You can get it cheaper than that in the UK
@@jonstern7511boots often sell it for £60. Usually it’s on sale 🫢
His companies customer care is SHOCKING! They don't care at all 🤬
I would say you could say the same for Bleu De Chanel. Not a single miss in that line.
IMO, same for the Dior Homme line. I find both of these more impressive than Pour Homme personally
To be fair, he lists the retail prices, not discounters. It's $155 at Macy's so not far off from our retail price at all.
After requesting this a few times on other videos you finally did it! Love this fragrance.
And?! SHARE 😂

Been waiting for this one quite some time. Thanks Aaron.
When I see the notes in my head, it does make a difference. If they blend or don't blend with my taste. Your channel has helped me understand them.
Amazing Aaron - Love your reviews!! ❤ Greetings from south Brazil!
Oh thank you for this review ! Will be so nice to see more reviews of Versace fragrance: Pour Homme, Dylan Blue, Eros etc. Thanks Aaron!
Love you Aaron!!!! I am definitely getting better at picturing things via a note breakdown. However, sometimes I cannot pick out fractionalized compounds yet. This is mostly because I don't have a great reference for major aroma chemicals and naturals- still working on building the olfactive memory!
Yes aaron, the notes do give us a hint and help us imagine what the fragrance would smell like.
Absolutely LOVE this fragrance!!
I was not expecting this review cause its a little bit of an unknown fragrance to the masses, but I’m really glad to see this review on your channel
I enjoy this very much, and similar to TF Oud Wood. Oh yes - the notes do factor in my decision to try/buy, but not the marketing, box presentation or bottle.
Thankfully Gianni can’t hear him butchering Versace…
😂
I enjoy a breakdown of notes for sure it does help give me an idea of how the fragrance compares to other things in my collection I enjoy. But what i would really love is a short breakdown describing what the fragrance reminds the perfumer of and where it takes them when they smell it. 😊
One of my favorites. Differentiates itself from Oud Wood just enough while performing better and having an incredible drydown. Soooo underated.
The reviews, such as this influence my purchasing decisions the most, with the note break down only being a far lesser factor. But knowing the notes does help me picture in my mind how it will smell. The more fragrance I experience, the more I can picture in my mind's eye.
Hey master, thank you for another cool review, I am so impressed how you remember all the names of the naturals and chemicals from top of your head. I get it you play with them 8h a day but still.
No way you reviewed this today!?!
I’m wearing this today…and haven’t worn it since 2018!!! Still smells good! 🔥
Aaron is like the GOAT. This man smells everything. You are a rare human being bro with a real unique gift! Love your fragrances and your reviews! With love! Greetz
Yes! Looking up the notes is the first step in my interest in a fragrance. BTW, always love your reviews and come away knowing more about perfumery. Bottom line is a trust your honesty and judgement. Thank you! I also enjoy your great voice, “the hands” and the eyes! You have the best reviews on UA-cam, hands down. I also like Sebastian on The Perfume Guy for expertise and honesty but your reviews are the most interesting!
It's fun to spray on the fregrance he is reviewing while you watch.
It's so fun me and my girlfriend do this and drink wine sometimes. Enjoyable date for a perfume head
I waited ages for you to review this. I love oud noir very much, and I think it's super underrated. For around 60 USD you get sth that lasts long and projects beautifully. Versace pour homme line is one of the best affordable fragrance line out there
Versace smells way too synthetic and cheap…
The notes definitely inform how I'll imagine it'll smell.
Great vid Aaron looking dapper today nice one! I always look at the notes as they usually give me an idea on whether it’s something I will like (if I’m blind buying) and I tend to stay away from scents that contain both vanilla and lavender, there’s something about that combo that smells terrible to me, almost like a fatty smell, I think I’m alone on that one though, so yes to answer your question I do check the notes out 👍
YES the notes are MOST important for us to know or have an idea as to what it might smell like.
The extra fluffy words I NEVER read. I don't care.
I’ve always wanted to try this!!
Time to get on it.
I was always relieved that this was a more underground fragrance, considering Versace’s status, allowing decent prices. Beautiful scent and amazing breakdown as always Aaron
I have this one and like it , interesting review Aaron
Excellent review. Since you asked, I do use the notes listed to assume some of the presumed identity of the fragrance.
Imaginative cognation plays part in the rest of the decision. Paintings or some sort of self descriptive artwork would actually work much better than words there wouldn't they🤓
Salutations, Aaron! I was wondering what happened to your review of Kouros; I was in the mood to rewatch it (for probably the 12th time), but I couldn't find it.
On a note related to this video, though, I've been eyeballing Oud Noir for the longest time and have yet to pull the trigger; gotta find a sample somewhere.
Aaron thank you very much for a great review as always 🙏
Could you review Nishane: Afrika-Olifant
It is an amazing fragrance (my favourite) and I want to hear your thoughts and the assessment of the ingredients.
love this one
Being able to see the note breakdown is VERY important in deciding what to buy.
I’ve been looking for some new fragrances, and your reviews have been really helpful. I’ve purchased Herod and Grand soir so far. I’ve searched your channel for reviews on Basso by Sospiro and Guerlain Ideal EDP and Extreme but didn’t find anything. I hope they will be coming in the future, I would like to know what you think of them.
I look at the note breakdown. I've been wanting to get some of yours but have yet to follow through. Love the video's
Awesome as always. Next, try Dolce and Gabbana pour homme Intenso. I’m curious what you have to say about it
Very informative and interesting, as usual.
It can be found quite a bit cheaper by shopping around online (around £50 last time checked). I've had a sample in my collection a long time. It's different enough from TF OW that is it's own thing. It's worth having but the season for scents like this is beginning to pass. Going into Spring very soon and I have lots of great 'dark' or 'cool weather scents', already (albeit, you can wear what you want, when you want, if you like).
That said, if this was to get discontinued before I own a bottle I will probably be kicking myself.
I think it smells better than TF Oud Wood. It would be great 'dark' Oud fragrance to wear if you're not into the more complex Middle Eastern type ones or you don't want to be projecting too much of the Oud.
You're such a good reviewer that I get kind of chuffed with myself when you like something I I like, as well.
Aaron, I’ve got to say, you look extraordinary! 😊
Its bcs he uses Ordinary
@@ajk5350thats all obvious innit?
@@tomislavmatekovic6909 Do you happen to know what product / serum or can you recommend one? Thank you!
@@PiNkYzDaBest i think its called the ordinary akvea or aqua.
Yeah its called botox 😂
I like his 'levels' of amusement when reading the notes/marketing brief, going from the little smirk all the way to the eye roll.
I think the marketing write up mostly helps people that can't imagine how it'd smell, not everyone buying knows perfectly how Neroli, Clary Sage or Carnation smells like. Fragheads can probably picture pretty well how something smells just from the notes, brand/perfumer.
Thank you very much for your opinion, which I really value and that's why I would be very happy if you would share your opinion about the Adi ale Van fragrances!
Aaron, I've always wondered what your thoughts are on TF Oud Mineral , unfortunately It's not produced anymore.
I personally love it & have an unopened bottle.
My "Holy Trinity of Oud" - TF Oud Wood, Versace Oud Noir, and Thameen Carved Oud.
I can paint a picture in my mind based on a notes list and yes, I will steer towards or away from fragrances based on the notes they list. If there is an interesting story behind the fragrance, especially one about the inspiration for the fragrance that explains something about the performance of the fragrance, I always like to hear it. Like Louis Vuitton California dream the inspiration was a beach sunset - which explained the nonlinear nature of the fragrance on my skin. From bright to dark over a couple of hours.
Because there are so much scents out there, I like to hear some notes just because I want a light, initial filter to peak my interest. I like it when I can look forward to putting my nose on something that I haven't before. If the note break-down makes something seem rather familiar, then I can just sit back, let other people enjoy it and tell me if I'm missing out. The combination of notes also gives me a flavor or vibe. So I do think it's important... but I don't place too much emphasis on it since we don't know if a note is supposed to give the feeling of some ingredient or if it is naturals and between synthetic and natural I'm sure that synthetic isn't bad or evil by default. I just like to hear the notes.
Nice 'Showgirls' reference at the beginning. 😁
When you have the opportunity, please review Nishane Ani X. Many thanks
Best personality ever, a Master ✌️
Genius. Meaning Aaron.
When I read fragrance notes I read them to get a general idea of what is in there. I can imagine a few notes and what they bring, but I can't visualize how it smells as a totally combined fragrance if that makes sense
Hey Aaron, I don’t usually get influenced by the marketing, but i do look at the notes and would know if i will like the fragrance or not. I’ll never buy a full bottle before wearing or testing the fragrance. However from your house, im buying 10 mls when max aroma will be restocked, cant wait.
Designer marketing doesn't catch me. Consistent quality does, though. From the Pour Homme line, I've only worn Versace Pour Homme and I enjoyed it so I may purchase Oud Noir eventually.
The notes do catch me. If I enjoy a certain percentage of a fragrance's notes already, it makes me more likely to purchase a fragrance to see how the notes I'm not sure of (bitter orange, patchouli) interact with the notes I like (frankincense, black pepper, cardamon, and oud). I'd probably layer this with your Carbon to increase its projection - perfect for the season.
Very informative review, Aaron. Thank you.
Dear Aaron have you heard of city rhythm i would love to see you review the house i know u would fall in love with them especially san diego and austin both beautifully well crafted
Intriguing! Hadn't heard of this but growing up here in Austin and reading the site's superb description this is a must try for me! Thanks for bringing me awareness!
@@SWTmelif you havent yet san diego 2654,austin are must tries trust me
@AO-46613highly recommended
Notes are accurate more or less but usually about 2 or 3 of them really makes sense , if you know how a lot of perfumes smell and you know their notes it is somewhat possible to predict how one perfume smells based on its notes
I have this fragrance about seven years and it is very good.I heard cardamone and saffron start is very similar to Tom Ford Oud Wood...and this fragrance did macarated very long time..very good smelling and no chemical to my nose. I have 2015 batch..
I have a batch that is equally aged and it really is like a fine wine.... Superb!
Hi Aaron, could you do a review of Acqua di Parma Oud EDP (from "Signatures of the Sun" collection - basically, it's the black bottle)?
I found this hidden gem in Selfridges while hunting for my trusty "Colonia Intensa". Took a few ADP paper-samples (Quercia, Sandalo, etc) with me, and been sniffing them throughout the week. A week later only the "Oud" paper-sample is going strong, and it really grew on me, so I pulled the trigger and bought it. It's actually so much deeper and interesting and "classy" than TF Oud Wood that I'm now thinking of striking TF Oud Wood off my wishlist.
There's no in-depth, decent, professional review of Acqua di Parma Oud on youtube.
Cheers!
Yes looking to notes plays a major role in deciding what fragrances i'd buy. but also not? because I feel like even if two frags have the same notes they can still be different in their own ways.
"I can't even pronounce nothin, pass that Ver-say-see"
My favorite fragrance in my collection.
The note breakdown is very important to me.
A lot of people complain about performance, but man this one really lasts a long time on me. It's an all timer for me, but everyone experiences these fragrances differently.
1:25 Yes, it does encourage me to buy. I mostly stick to resins, ambers, vanilla, tonka beans, Ambroxan, grapefruit, incense, black pepper, etc.... I stay away from fresh garbage like Le Labo Santal 33 that smells like cold dilled pickles; the note its coming from the papyrus.
😂😂😂
Would love to see you review Flamenco and Ole by Ramon Monegal
Please please do one for Dylan Blue as well. I reallt want to hear your review on it
Fragrance notes: Not all of them. I've gotten better. I'm sure if I had a 'smell kit' of the most major scent ingredients used to program my olfactory sense... it would be better. That way I'd have something in memory to say "pink pepper smells like this. Coumarin smells like this. etc." To pick a single item of a fragrance other than patchouli & vanilla for me would be a task. I do know what I like after a year of collecting... but to pick it out by listed notes... tough.
the topping up of the scents or adding up the scents like pepper and oud didn't do it for me, didn't knew what was coming... so for me it doesn't work as marketing, but loved pour homme edt the blue with silver
Note breakdown is important to me when buying fragrance because certain notes will influence me like leather oud frankincense rose tobacco so if stated I would gravitate towards those scents
Gotta say that most people care, know, or work out notes. Not sure if they are true on most websites. What is more important is fragrances type like fresh, leather, sweet etc and versatility (occasions, formality etc).
Isn't this one discontinued or did they rerelease?
Two fragrances could list the same notes and smell significantly different, so ultimately I have to smell it myself. The notes only tell me if what I’m about to smell is remotely in my ballpark.
I definitely look at the notes to decide whether I want to try it or buy it, but I don't pay any attention to the marketing (hype).
Aaron please review Dolce y Gabbana the one "mysterious night" is a rose fragrance
I love how A-a-ron pronounces Versace it reminds me of show girls
Yes! Nomi
That's probably what he's referencing.
Yes, I am very influenced by the notes in a fragrance. If they align with my tastes then I watch some reviews to have a better idea how they may smell.
Personally only base notes helps making a decision if I should purchase or not , name or perfumer and longevity / batch
I don't have the ability or experience to discern smells, just from reading notes. Whenever I try, I'm always surprised by the actual scent and find it's not what I imagined. I've just accepted that I won't know I like it or not, until I try it.
Thank you for the Showgirls reference, ver-saise .
Hi Aaron, since you are a perfumer, is it possible if ypu could please shed some light on the phthalate or diethyl phtalate solvent found in perfumes? In the sense that how harmful is it exactly when using perfumes daily? I got way carried away with perfumes as an hobby, I don't consider myself an oversprayer however (max 5 sprays daily) I've worn almost daily now for over a year different perfumes and scared over the fact *if* it has an impact on my endocrine system as sources say phthalate can supposedly induce. Reason being is that I've been feeling more dizzy, sometimes migraines (which I've never had before), depression, vertigo and huge attention deficits
Thanks
Funny, I ordered this last week and coming this Friday. I think I paid $56 USD. Can’t wait.
I don't usually care all that much for marketing/descriptions I do care about the notes though, reading through fragrantica I can picture what it smells like (if my nose had a brain 🤣) and make my decision based off that. I do a lot of blind buying though, even if they aren't that good, it takes you on a journey. Depending on how good the materials are and how it's blended will tell how vivid and detailed the journey is, for some it's a boring journey. You can usually tell what sort of effort went into a fragrance by where it takes you in your head
To be completely honest, I don't think I have ever really imagined what a parfum would smell like, bought it and then got what I was thinking.. the notes kinda influence me in what I'm looking for when shopping online but usually I get samples, test them blind, wear them a few days and then go from there.
Good example is probably the Gentle Fluidity Gold and SIlver from MFK. Same exact notes, two completely different fragrances. Comparisons to other fragrances work way better to get a feel for a scent.
Could you please review some Penhaligons perfumes? :)
Would love your opinion on dior the cachmere :)
I don't bother with marketing unless it's just a note list. Versace Man fragrances are pleasant and comforting and this is one of the better ones.
I do really like this fragrance, but i dont find myself reaching for this one too much because it seems to dry down into a very weak skin scent. I dont if its just my skin chemistry or if i go nose blind really quickly, I am not a light sprayer either always a good 6 -10 sprays
This one is definitely underrated.
Wants to see you do acqua di parma osmanthus 😊
Hey Aaron, can you help me out here please, i really cant choose between JPG Le Male Le Parfum and 1 Million Edt.
Over 20yo? Jpg 100%
I have notes. That sounds good to me And they tend to spark my interest. Honey, tobacco, plum and more catch my attention.
So it seems like even a lot of really fine fragrances die on my skin in about six or seven hours. I tested oud noir against Pardon the other day, one on each arm, and I could still smell the Versace 12 hours later. Absolutely wild.
I have to recommend you for listening to Ur audience when they told you to change the background to black instead of white and U actually did which tells that you are a top man.
I absolutely love this stuff. Bought 3 testers for 175$ American such a steal
From where? And did they come with the cap? I want to get one from Jomashop but theres no cap in the picture
@@turo302 Jomashop’s testers come with a cap
I Love Versace 🖤 Oud Noir 🖤
nice one
Its almost half that price in Australia. Finding bottles for just over 100 AUD
Great review and I like your style. Also have dyslexia thank you!
