Orto Parisi has some amazing fragrances. Very elegant and simple - They are what Maison Francis Kurkjidan thinks he is.
bravo
So true 😂
I prefer mfk significantly more, its also alot easier to like their fragrances imo, but orto parisi ain't bad
i don't think mfk deserves to be disrespected like this
No not really Francis kurkdjian makes amazing fragrances that are mass appealing , Alessandro gaultieri is more artistic and daring , most of his creations are not mass appealing
This is one of my most favorite fragrances to wear for some addictive reason. It’s not just beast mode… it’s Cathulu level.
Orto Parisi has some definite high class bangers. Amazing niche house.
I am so happy to have a review of one of the Orto Parisi fragrances by Aaron finally. I waited it for long time. I think that the parfumer, Alessandro Gualtieri, the nose of Nasomatto and Orto Parisi fragrances is absolutely genial. His fragrances are unique, exciting, creative. I am a professional classical musician and Bergamask is really like a complex symphonie as you told. I hope that you will review more of the Orto Parisi line. Thanks for your amazing reviews Aaron!
A. Gualtieri creates phenomenons. Absolutely agree. Nasomatto and Orto Parisi lines are gorgeous in my opinion. This is phenomenal perfumery constructed fabulously in a very original way, to be very fair. Bergamask is on my life perfumery wish list.
Parisi is a joy.Veride is my winter favorite.Glad you cover them
Nice review Aaron, pleasure to watch
Your scientific breakdowns by molecules, how you feel, what you smell, and neutral perspectives towards potential customers is amazing! I trust that I can make a blind purchase and be happy with it.
Fragrance is too personal, and just as an example, this fragrance received a very bad score by Luca Turin, who is at least equally qualified to judge a fragrance, being a biophysicist who has worked in the industry. It goes to show two professionals can completely disagree so you should always smell a sample first.
If Aaron made a perfume course I would be an early adopter 💯. Already getting lots of value from these reviews. Thx for doing these
Glad you are reviewing a fragrance from this wonderful house. Thank you. Viride is another winner.
Have and love both Bergamask and Megamare. Megamare is a beast performer. You will still smell it after 48hrs and 5 showers, lol.
Hi, which one more mass pleasing? Bergamask or megamare?
@@Abcdefk-u probably neither, honestly. Slight edge to megamare maybe.
Aaron, you are the best fragrance reviewer on UA-cam. Every review is like a super glorious story telling. I am surprised it took me so long to find you. May I ask to list your top 5 fragrances.
Thank you for the vid. I cant wait until you release a box of all your frags in 50ml sizes
Just ordered some fragrances from your website, beyond excited to try them! If they are as good as I'm expecting I'll ditch my designer scents and commit to your brand!
The way things are explained. It’s like telling a romantic tale.
Very nice review.
I just started learning about this house. I received a bottle of Megamare recently. I love it. I think this one will be my next purchase. Hope you do more videos about this house.
really great breakdown from someone with an in depth background knowledge
Nasomatto and Orto Parisi are the definition of niche for me, the high levels of expensive naturals and aroma chemicals, the weird concepts/names, the gorgeous packaging and bottles...of course there are other true niche brands out there but there's a reason Gualtieri's creations are so popular. The only problem I think is that some of them (like Bergamask and Megamare) are just TOO strong, 2 sprays and you are the center of attention everywhere you go.
It is niche till someone review it in UA-cam
I love being noticed everywhere
Please review more from the house! Thank you!
Love you doing houses like this would love more
Hi Aaron. Than you for the review. I am looking forward to seeing your opinion about Uncut Gem from Frederic Malle. I kinda like it but the reviewers didn't actually.
I'd love to see more reviews from this fantastic perfumer and both brands - Nasomatto and Orto Parisi! I feel like these brands are really for you as they're so artsy and unique, and even if they don't quite hit your taste, I'm sure you'll appreciate the creativity and uniqueness of each of them. I'll never forget your review of Nasomatto Pardon, the best thing ever!
Nasomatto China White and Orto Parisi Cuoium are two that I'd love to see here.
Many thanks to you for that technical, acurate, yet sensitive review of this great "Bergamask" from Alesandro Gualtiéri, il Naso matto.I think it's mavelous by itself but, If you have nothing against Layering, i can suggest to layer first "sade attaquer le soleil" from "état libre d'orange" ( a dirty sheepy cistus labdanum perfume) and apply Bergamask over, it composes a very "dark" back-bone.
Amazing dry-down!
Great performance!
And best of all extremely versatile while being unique and stylish!
Orto Parisi is real niche at the correct price.
Brutus and Megamare are already in my collection and Bergamask will be my next one for the spring/summer,
Aaron thx for the great passionate review as always!
How's the longevity and silage of Brutus?
@@damiendong9632 Ciao! Longevity on my skin is 6/8h and sillage is moderate/close, but if you warm up a bit it pops up magically for a while.
Thank you for your passion
i watched a review by a woman about Bergamask.
One of the things she mentioned (aside from getting unexpected compliments),
she sprayed it on one of her cloth and keep it in an enclosed 'space' and never wear the cloth again.
The cloth still smell of Bergamask until at the time she did her review which more than a year has passed.
Aaron, you've probably been told this but if you like Bergamask but have a love for more oriental notes, you really must try and review Boccanera by Orto Parisi... IMO delicious and totally unique.
Tried all the Parisi line(samples)I’ve settled on Bergamask as my favorite,the dry down is fantastic,had to get a bottle
Hi Aaron, as an Italian guy, I'm very proud of Alessandro Gualtieri, the Nose and author of Nasomatto and Orto Parisi's lines. I also think you seem to have many similarities with him. I'm thinking about his earnestness, passion for the materials and products themselves, and down to earth personality in a sense. But, on a higher level, artistically, many of the concepts and names of his fragrances are provoking, sexual and dirty, like yours. I kinda think he Is a kindred spirit to you, and I definitely look forward your reviews on works like Stercus (shit in latin), Brutus, Cuoium or Terroni (a demeaning nickname by which the northern Italians used to call the southern ones, which Parisi himself Is). But all of them are meaningful. I hope you'll keep exploring them!
Juventus or Milan?
Aaron, you NEEED to review Initio Psychedelic Love. I know the types of perfumes you like. This is going to be a major W for you
lovely fragrance, great in the summer, this is a beast performer, i love the orto parisi's , my favourite is Terroni, nice review. (the sister house is nasomatto/both brands made by the charismatic Mr Alessandro Gualtieri)
I own 4 and I want the whole collection!
Aaron I think it would be great if you reviewed Comme Des Garcons Rouge. Just had a whiff and it is very unique - utilizes beetroot ! Longevity also surprised me for a CDG
Love Bergamask and I've never gone Anosmic to it as it's quite overwhelming if oversprayed.
Great underrated house, Stercus and Cuoium are great fragrances too
Bergamask is the longest lasting citrus in my collection. You might enjoy trying Megamare. A gem!
I’ve heard Megamare is Nuclear in performance?! Bergamask is Bonkers in the performance category, 1 tiny spray projected insanely off my skin for 3+ hrs and 12+ hrs longevity
I would be interested on your take on some other weird and crazy niche houses like Jorum (Euan McCall) and Strangers Parfumery (Prin Lormos) btw
Brooklyn Fragrance Lover wore the single note javanol from that Escentric Molecule brand; he said people could smell him literally ROOMS away at work. I sprayed it on a test strip that was directed into a laundry sink, where the water goes from the washing machine. It is a very nice sandalwood. *Problem* : The scent did not leave the sink *for literally an entire year* That included at least several clothes washings a week. It just STUCK there at the bottom of the sink, despite dirty water passing over the area hundreds of times. That freaked me out, so I avoid that aromachemical now.
Megamare next please 😊
I hope you are doing Megamare also, it is definitely in my top 3 perfumes ever.
How much is it?
@@warrendchild I live in Germany and I paid 150€ here
@@muff258 50ml?
@@warrendchild yes, and it has nuclear performance no joke 50 ml is a lot
@@muff258 interesting. People say Mancera performs, but they never do on me! Although, nothing does perform on me!
As my fragrance journey has progressed, I do feel I need to give less importance to "performance." Niche perfumery is certainly about perfume as art, and if some perfumes have a shorter message than others, who am I to say that's negative? I feel this fragrance in particular is taking something people like - citrus notes - and jacking up the performance with as many woody ambers that can fit, as a means to artificially extend that, but in a way inferior to say, Cologne Indelibile from Dominique Ropion, because it takes so much finesse to do it without butchering the whole thing.
@@huubdrums indeed what you have to say probably sounds like a percussion instrument.
Please please pleaseee review Brutus by Orto Parisi because its the perfume that got me into the road of perfume collecting but the notes aren’t that clear to me and i would love to see your review of it ❤ much love
Brutus has citrus notes, like bergamot, orange or mandarin, and mostly Patchouli underneath. The 1-2 punch Is this combo. I also seems to detect some roundness in the base, like Sandal, but I'm far from capable enough to assess It.
I wasn’t sure you were going to like this one let alone love it based on the box description 😂
what a cool box!
Aaron, please review Histoires de Parfums 1740! Thank you!
Hey Aaron is delivery to Slovenia available? It's possible to select the country in the online store, but when I enter all the address details it says that shipment isn't possible to that address. Thank you and kind regards
Aaron have you done megamare from orto parisi? It's really good. But also very strong.
Having few of Orto Parisi and Nasomatto fragrances it's all you need. Nasomatto could produce 50ml bottles but ...
Maybe some mass appealing designer and that's it.
Aaron I don't know your work yet (fkin brexit) but I just bought myself a bottle of Amouage Imitation and upon smelling the tester strip at the perfume store the first thing that popped into my mind was HARD CANDY. The smell is so candy, neon, colorful thick I smelled it and went 'this, I pay, thank you' immediately :D I don't know your work (yet!) but the way you describe it Imitation is like you!
You should really try Megamare 😉
Definitely also try Terroni and Megamare! I believe everything they make is strong and long lasting.
Wow, thank you for this. 🛀
I have a special guilty pleasure parfum review wish, none other than the Jusbox Cheeky Smile! :)
Sister of Nasomatto same parfumer is really artistic niche houses
I’d like to get 3 from each sister house 3 from Naso and 3 from Orto I have Pardon with black afgano on the way and my 3rd will probably be blamage. My 3 from Orto will be Terroni, Megamare, and Bergamask
Do you plan on reviewing anything from zaharoff fragrances
Please review Amouroud - White Hinoki 🙏
try Terroni. my fav frag from Orto Parisis
Please make a video for narcotic v from Nasomatto
I found the most deadly combo in existance. Boss bastard and Side effect. It's insane.
Would you be able to compare this to any other perfume
How long I’ve been waiting to know your opinion on Orto parisi fragrances! Please check all of them 🤍🍀
When can we buy your scents again?
ahhhh... I really wanted megamare... but, to be fair, all of them are interesting! Really hope you get to smell more of them! And Nasomato is the sister house ur thinking :)
Please review megamare by this house
great
good perfume, strong house
I think you'd love Terroni.
What aromachemical in Bergamask, produces the predominant Animal-Musk fragrance? Javanol?
@@RobertLaTuso Afaik yes, it's a synthetic sandalwood but it has t human skin/musky smell. Javanol lasts for ages.
The whole house is like this, I'm so happy you read my comments (I suppose not only mine). The guy doesn't give notes and on his official website there isn't really a description either. There's pictures to imagine the inspiration, but they all have a story. This one is based on the city of Bergamo wheter there are begamots and the bargamasco dance which is in a way slutty and erotic - and he says it's a mix of the hot, horny bodies and the bergamot trees. You need to try the rest, Megamare stays on for 48h including showers, and they all have some stories and the caps are different. Megamare has a cap that's rusted in the sea with mother-of-pearl top. Terroni is a derogative term for an Italian southerner and it reminds him of south - it has a volcanic stone top and it smells of volcanic, spiky stone-lije smell with a hot pepper and raspberry reminiscent of lava.
In Italy, bergamots usually are typical in south italy, especially Calabria, due to the real Mediterranean climate. Bergamo for what I know isn’t famous for bergamot production. Although, I can understand the mistake, because all this sounds so similar and all that crazy genius ideas that Gualtieri do
Just wish they made 100ml bottles also
I believe Orto Parisi and Nasomatto are related.
I blind bought full line of Ortoparisi and i love all of it. Didn’t regret a single one
All time favorite are Boccanera, Bergamask and Megamare
Beast mode performance from the whole line
Which one more versatile and mass pleasing for summer? Megamare or bergamask?
This house really pull my attention
@@Abcdefk-u I think you should try Bergamask first and if you enjoy it you will enjoy Megamare. Both are really versatile all year round depend on how much you spray. Besides Bergamsk and Megamare you can try Viride which brought a greenly vibes with it
@@Leebas528 thanks👐
Orto is sister company of nasomattto
bergamask is the strongest fragrance in my collection. attention grabber!
I clicked on this video not even knowing the title, hearing "Do we have our bottles of BURGER Mask?"
I was looking forward to this one. I have had a sample for several months and have been fighting to embrace it however there's something that doesn't sit well with me. I love musk but it smells too pissy. Here's hoping that will change.
When you say expensive amber material, you talking about Amber Xtreme there?
Or Ambrocenide :D
Ambrocenide - Alessandro uses it in basically every single one of his creations… 👍🏻
(I know you asked this a year ago but I’m still answering it 😂)
@@SirSillageSniffington much obliged :D
What do you guys think about this on a woman? I heard is mostly worn by men.
Bergamot and musk?! Who would've thunk it
It’s so addictive and powerful
Actually is more Sandalwood materials than Musk (almost 50% vs 5%)
@@Gonzalo_K yikes
Just googled BANGALOL. It doesn’t exist and I live in the city of Bangalore in India. I was hoping to find it to be the sandalwood from Bangalore
14 sprays minimum next time Aaron🤣
This fragrance really just blends with my skin chemistry magically
I would like to see Aaron review "Black Opium" by YSL. Magnificent female fragrance! Very sexy.
It has nuclear power, love this house, also Megamare is one of my favorites.
Hi, which one more mass pleasing for summer? Bergamask or megamare?
I though i'll bought my 1st bottle orto parisi
It’s not that crowd pleasing and the musk it’s a bit animalic. This parfume is beautiful and repulsive in the same time. I feel like megamare is more complex, smoother and easy to like.
ps: I am wearing Bergamask right now on my hand while listening at what Aaron says and the notes start getting more contour and sense. Still not my favorite fragrance from the collection, but indeed it’s a work of art.
What you're talking about, "beautiful and repulsive" Is the whole philosophy behind Alessandro Gualtieri's work, Bro. And if you think Megamare Is not in that vein, I humbly say that you're very wrong.
Just bought this and it's not for me, have a brand new bottle (sprayed twice) if anyone is interested in purchasing you can message me.
still available?
Surprised there was no real mention of the “mask” piece of the puzzle. The "mask" captures the musky odor expelled by a fresh kill. Alessandro Gualtieri is brilliant, and I admire so many of his scents, but there’s death on this one. You love and hate it simultaneously. I’ve literally had people tell me there’s a “hint of rotten flesh” smell on it. That’s a f’n bizarre scent to weave into a citrus / musk. Love it, hate it.
It’s a bit indolic with clean musks but “rotten flesh” is a stretch
For some reason it doesn't last on me 😢
You must be going noseblind to it. This stuff is almost 40% Javanol, on chemistry alone it will last on EVERYONE, it might just tire your nose out…
Which batch do you have? I have 04224, I’m not sure if lasts on me either. Does anyone know if it has been reformulated?
@@brandondarby5821
As I said, it will last on anyone. Bergamask is based around a formula containing 50% synthetic sandalwood molecules and a HUGE 38% of that being Javanol (the most put into any fragrance ever to my knowledge and enough to make most perfumers shudder) which is incredibly strong. Even if he reformulated and halved the amount of it in the formula this stuff would still be nuclear.
I think it’s exactly because the aromachemicals used in this are in such high doses that it makes people go noseblind. Alternatively, it may be that your nose struggles to pick up Javanol (just like how some people can’t smell ISO E Super or Ambroxan at all), in which case you will struggle since that note comprises most of the drydown. It happens - I can’t smell Louis Vuitton Afternoon Swim at all, it’s like water to my nose, and I barely get any Mint in Amouage Enclave whereas some people say it’s a mint bomb… our noses are just all different and we have different levels of sensitivity to different aroma chemicals.
Also, if bought second hand, you could have a fake. There are a lot of fake Nasomatto and Orto Parisi out there so if you bought it from a non-official source it might not be genuine…
I don’t want to be too dogmatic about it, but as I said a formula with this many strong aromachemicals will never have an issue with longevity or projection - the nose smelling it will always be the weak link, whether that’s noseblindness or just not picking up the chemicals themselves…
Megamare is the most mainstream and least interesting of the whole Orto Parisi line
Thanks man, I love you. I was really getting tired by all the normies.
