Lovely work reviewing Oud from MFK! Finally we are elevated with your take on his composition. I’m also very glad to see your review on one of my favourite scents.
Every time you done a agarwood scent review I been so happy because you knowing your way around agarwood gives more realistic sense if they are using quality ingredients and actually blending it right
The hands are an aspi thing. It’s called stimming. It’s my brain communicating with myself trying to get clear communication between my perfume brain and my logical brain. Interesting how the brain works. A lot of what I do is very subconscious
Perfect timing on this one since I just bought it! Aaron you're the most educated and interesting reviewer on youtube. I also recently purchased Bortnikoffs Oud Maximus 2020 and it would be very interesting to get your perspective on it. Thank you Aaron for taking your time to share with us.
Very nice. I think both of them are the most niche fragrance I do. So give yourself time to adjust to the amount of naturals in it. Slut I would give a good 2 hours to let it develop on the skin .
@@AaronTerenceHughes slut has been on my skin now for 10 minutes. The citruses are morphing into a peppery note with rose pulsating faintly in the distance. How beautiful it is. I cannot wait to smell its development on my girlfriend and I during an intimate encounter. I knew I'd love this♡
Thanks, for your professional reviews Aaron and I'm totally with you on not liking Oud Satin. I literally had to wash my hand after sampling it, since I was getting a headache from the sweet rose and powdery smell.
My favorite MFK is Absolue Pour le Matin. What Francis is able to do within a tight formulation, with the layers and contrast is impressive imo. I'ld love to see what he could do with a bigger, 3-4 main ideas working together, or how they transition from idea to idea, kind of perfume. I think that would be mind blowing considering how he can add "bells and whistles" to an idea/accord
Yah, I prefer this one too, Satin Mood on me smells like a grandma's makeup for some reason, I just cant wear that one (too bad because it lasts about 18hrs on me). Thanks for another great professional review, Aaron. Looking forward to the next one 👍
Also too strong to the point of nauseating. Satin Mood longevity is just too long, i wonder how long the extrait version will last. While Oud edp is just beautiful.
Hi Aaron Your reviews are truly great. You separate your own tast of pafumery and the technical and art aspects of pafumery and appreciate the work behind. That's what makes a real professional 👍🙂 Greetings from germany
I liked this one at the first pop as well, but as it dried down on my skin it just turned into smelling like a citronella candle. It literally just smelled like a bunch of chemicals with some Rose sprinkled in there. I have really enjoyed their gentle fluidity silver and their baccarat rouge 540 extrait, but almost everything else has been very screechy and chemically for my tastes. I have also really enjoyed your work, and think my nose leans more towards naturals, and thus, I think sometimes this house is problematic for me. But I'm going to keep trying them and see if it ever gets better. :-) I just haven't enjoyed it so far except for the ones mentioned above. Loved the review thank you! :-)
Like he said technically yes. But from what I remember most are pretty feminine leaning. But that was years ago. It is on my list to try them again. I used to hate rose now i love it. So who knows
Aaron. Thank you for the review, very informative. For those that like oud to be metallic, camphoric projection bombs, dirty, earthy soil-ish, and long lasting what can your recommend? Highly recommend you review Rouge Perfumery Mousse Illuminee. This will challenge you the Perfumer doesn't want to comply with regulations. The scent is amazing.
Interesting aaron! Yet I recently purchased oud Cambodia by rasasi for a friend Mr gk , it cost £200 for 50ml, its an attar. Its literally beautiful. So silky and smooth with a slight fruit involved, maybe raspberry, I sprayed 3 sprays on my chest, when I walked through our door at home my missus said she smells it instantly. Beautiful stuff for the money. Lovely. Xxx
Oud Satin Mood "oud that little girls would wear". 😅 I really enjoy Grand Soir from the house. I haven't smelled Oud. I wasn't a fan of Oud Satin Mood or Silk Mood.
Nice review👍👍. I like dry and herbaceous perfume. Especially after I own some skanky oud perfumes, The clean, easy to wear quality of MFK Oud becomes my recent favourite.
Hola, Aron, which is your most beloved bewitching oud? I have a sample of this Oud (MFK) and it is as you say punchy and dry, but I Enjoy it. It is to me something I would wear to a hike, a natural warm water spring or to end the day and ease into slumber. Thank you for review and colorful hand symphony:)
I sampled this extensively over the week--I completely understand now what you mean by a "dry" formulation, with a "tinny" background. It just felt too clean to me--almost like I was using very high-class laundry softener. As I'm typing this you just said "surfactant" and talked about the soapiness--I totally get all of that and now whenever you say "dry" "tinny" or "shampoo" I'd understand exactly what you mean. Thanks, learned a lot from this review. And you are right, this lasts forever.
Great video man I got a question I need help before I buy. Which one do you like better oud for greatness or MFK? MFK have smelt satin mood version which out of 3 do you recommend
Hi Aaron. I want to ask you, which is the lily of the valley raw material you have named? Could you write it? I don't understand what it is. Thank you and I love your reviews.
I recently bought Aaron Terence hughes oud and its amazing. I love the patchouli in it and that dense base makes my head buzz in joy. I have many ouds such as oud for greatness by intio and i recently layered it over arraons to make the intio more dense. Although i love wearing Aarons ouds on it own. I want try other ouds from Aaron.
Hi Aaron! Have you sampled anything from Francesca Bianchi? I think you might enjoy her work, and it would be nice to hear what do you think about other indie houses :)
I gave my wife Oud (the regular EDP), Baccarat Rouge (EDP plus Extrait, but I am using the Extrait only) and A la Rose. Her favorite is Oud (she loves it) followed by A la Rose and then Baccarat EDP. But right now we still have winter in Germany, so A la Rose will become much more interesting in spring.
@@ashleighmackenzie8670 Baccarat is one of my favorite winter perfumes. Right now I am trying Amouage Beach Hut Man but I am not sure if it suits me or maybe it smells like a grandpa… 😄
Hi, I’m agree that Oud Satin Mood is quite Girly, on the other side Oud is perfect and i get the same smell like Sahraa Oud from Fragrance du Bois(After one hour)!Give a try to Oud Extrait…is definitely Much Better!All The Best from Brussel
Love your vieuw on this fragrance and totally agree with you, i have the 10ml Oud Sample's box and the Sample's box for the men scents, and i personally like his style of perfumery, but aswell totally agree and understand where you're coming from. (Well that is thanks to you for teaching me for about a lil 2 years now) i prefer your OUD fragrance over MFK Oud but also love his Style with florals and woodsy fragrances, but then again your Amber fragrance is way better then MFK Grand Soir imo. Thank you Aaron for teaching us! I never deeply took a look in DNA's of fragrances/brands/perfumers but now i completely understand it better!
That’s so lovely to hear. I work 7 days at trying to create affordable and high quality fragrance. Each of my creations has to last, project and be interesting. But the most important thing is. You smell good. Thank you for being so generous and supporting my work and my amazing team:)
Am I the only one on this planet who don't dig MDK Oud?! My friends all talking MFK Oud the best, magnificent so I blind bought it. Sniff .... It's granny scent! Maybe it's smell I must unpack don't know. This is not the first time I give up just for later the same fragrance become my fav one. Ganymede extrait came,bought it blind,sell it 3 days after. 5 months later tried it again and was blown away! Now it's among my top 5 on my shelf. Don't know what to do!
The extrait version of this is different from the eau de parfum they don't smell like the same fragrance it smells more like a chocolatey oud in the extrait version don't know why that is
What a fragrance this is. Smooth, rounded, very powdery lovely scent. The name explains it well - you get the oud but it’s wrapped in the most beautiful satin in the world. Don’t be lazy, go and test it. I assure you that the scent is lovely don’t trust Aaron :)
Hello Aaron, in your reviews I noticed that you like affortable fragrances which smell great and dislike overpriced fragrances. And, you know a lot about Oud in fragrances and use it a lot in your fragrances. and you say that some of them only use tiny amounts, which is ok - if they are not overpriced. therefore, I would love to know your opinion about 'Oud Vanille' and 'Oud Touch' by the house of Franck Oliver. they are like brother and sister, and are about 25 pounds, so, aparently no real Oud in them. but, they are smelling good. I would love to know your opinion about these. thanks for reading.
Agree with your thoughts--MFK Oud is lovely but personally, not for me. I wanted to like Satin Mood, but it dried down too mature for me. Surprisingly loved, loved Silk Mood, despite the rose and bergamot notes, which my skin doesn't typically agree with.
Thank you for this review. Based off what you just said, I don't think it's for me. Your oud is my style. Your ouds are perfection. Specifically, I regard Onyx as the pinnacle of fragrance.
I absolutely loathe "Oud Satin Mood", but the "Oud" is OK. The clean smell suits some situations where you want to smell clean and not too extravagant. Have even worn it at work and I work as a teacher. But it definitely doesn't wow me. Totally agree with this review. ❤
Loving the new backdrop etc in this video, Aaron. 👍🏻
Thanks for another great review.
Your reviews have become very well-done, Aaron. I enjoy them all and love how your presence in front of the camera is now quite professional.
Only took 1.5 years to get it right!😄pleased you noticed the continuing improvement
The Extrait version of this is great! Excellent review Aaron!
Aaron I thoroughly enjoy your reviews. You are refreshingly unique and brutally honest. Keep up the fantastic videos.
Lovely work reviewing Oud from MFK! Finally we are elevated with your take on his composition.
I’m also very glad to see your review on one of my favourite scents.
Every time you done a agarwood scent review I been so happy because you knowing your way around agarwood gives more realistic sense if they are using quality ingredients and actually blending it right
I just got a sample of Oud this week and I really loved hearing your thoughts on it. Gives it a context I don’t have otherwise - thanks for that!
Another ethereal and straight to the point review. Love the hands ❤️
The hands are an aspi thing. It’s called stimming. It’s my brain communicating with myself trying to get clear communication between my perfume brain and my logical brain. Interesting how the brain works. A lot of what I do is very subconscious
Thank you Aaron. Always great to see you
Thank you Ryan:)
I’m so glad you chose to make reviews. Im sad i found you to late. After watching you i just cant see others.
Can't wait for more of your spicy takes on other MFK fragrances. Love the camera upgrade, btw!
Perfect timing on this one since I just bought it! Aaron you're the most educated and interesting reviewer on youtube. I also recently purchased Bortnikoffs Oud Maximus 2020 and it would be very interesting to get your perspective on it. Thank you Aaron for taking your time to share with us.
Just ordered Slut and Boss Bastard from MaxAroma in USA! I cant wait to try your creations!!!
Very nice. I think both of them are the most niche fragrance I do. So give yourself time to adjust to the amount of naturals in it. Slut I would give a good 2 hours to let it develop on the skin .

Greetings from germany
When you heard “Oud from Laos”, you immediately know that Aaron not gonna love this that much…
😬😬💜💜🦄🦄
Very true!
@@AaronTerenceHughes lolol I think it's lower quality if I'm right
@@IrregularTangent yeah best is Hindi Oud
@@abuabdullaah9476 Indian oud from what I have smelled is the best..
@@IrregularTangent it you need high quality Hindi Oud then you can contact me. I'm from Bangladesh and I sell wild and cultivated oud
I love your review. Not too much. The music is perfect. It’s not too loud. Thank you.

I was going to try this but Satin Mood and Silk mood really put me off. Seeing as it's summer, do you plan on reviewing Elysium by Roja?

the best moment of the day, when I get the notification that you have uploaded a new video
🦄❤️🦄
I think you are spot on with this review… dunno why u didn’t enjoy Oud Satin mood though, I relate Mfk - Oud to mfk - Oud satin Mood…
Very Nice Aaron!
Great video man I got a question I need help before I buy. Which one do you like better oud for greatness or MFK? MFK have smelt satin mood version which out of 3 do you recommend
Very fine review,, I do own the extrait version of this I like it it’s not bad,,aroma from heaven
Thoughts on Gunpowder in a fragrance? I am contemplating buying Xerjoff The Don and has gunpowder in it, seems strange lol
If this an up to date review? I've seen you reviewing Mfk Oud before? You said it's more of a warm weather oud, if I remember correctly.
Great review Aaron! Do you smell natural oud in it?
Aaron, your nose is amazing like a radar. Very on point!
Hi Aaron. I want to ask you, which is the lily of the valley raw material you have named? Could you write it? I don't understand what it is. Thank you and I love your reviews.
J adore et oud extrait magnifique merci
Good review my brother. I hope to see you again on your great reviews as usual. I hope to see you do some videos on PDM and Hermés.
I wonder if the formula changed for this one since the video. My sample of this dries down quite sweet. I do enjoy this one quite a bit!
Hey best Aaron, have you review baccarat rouge 540 from MFK? If not, you must review it. It’s amazing.
All these years, I finally found the scent I love. $300.- American dollars. I bought samples from the company!
Aluxurious review 😎
Please review salvatore ferragamo uomo and signature. The first one include notes of tiramisu.
Also you can try mugler angel muse.
You're the 🐐!

Hey Aaron, how are you? I'm fantastic as well. You should try Eric butterbough Oud gardenia. Think you'd love it if I understand you well.
I wore satin and silk mood. Silk was my preference
Great Video, please review the extrait de parfum too❤
The Extrait de parfum version is beautiful, and the performance is incredible :)

Off subject but what’s your fave ( s) women’s fragrance??? 💕
Love your reviews
????
Oh... have to try your Oud parfum, indeed!
Now, this what I call music! Hat off this is experience talking!
I hope he can review Masculin Pluriel 😊
So I got this and I sprayed 3 times and nobody noticed. What am I doing wrong?
Bortnikoff Triad is something I would love to see you try.
Bortnikoff Musk Khabib is killer too!!
Bortnikoff uses real animal by products so I don’t think Aaron would do any videos on his work.
Have you heard of Thameen Carved Oud? It's supposedly the dupe of TF Oud Wood. Would be good to see/hear your take on it!
I am reviewing it soon
@@AaronTerenceHughes I'll keep my eyes peeled ☺️
Am I the only one on this planet who don't dig MDK Oud?!

Does anything smell like it that is cheaper

Francis Kurkdjian is a master perfumer
That soapy MFK dna never convinced me, not a fan of MFKs especially BR540, Oud SM and APOM HOMME lol 🤷♂️ Accurate and fair review 👌
I don’t enjoy MFK style at all with exception of Absolue pour le Soir and Lumiere Noir pour Homme
I would recommend you sample
-Grand Soir
-Petit Matin
-Gentle Fluidity Silver
-
I am obsessed with this perfume. BUT it does not last on me at all. WHY?
Please review Maison Francis Kurkdjian Absolut Pour Le Soir. This raw, animalic, masterpiece will resonate 💯 Not for the faint of heart

Please do Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc
Didnt you review this fragrance before. Around the same time of oud satin mood.
Yes. But I am now in a studio with better sound and lighting. I also have a structure to stick to that has taken a year to develop.
This one is way better then sat mood ,
This gentleman's olfactory system is stunning.
Respectfully
Thank you for yo ur kind words:)
I absolutely loathe "Oud Satin Mood", but the "Oud" is OK. The clean smell suits some situations where you want to smell clean and not too extravagant. Have even worn it at work and I work as a teacher. But it definitely doesn't wow me.
Totally agree with this review. ❤
Agree with all of that. I can absolutely see it on a teacher that wants to smell good and professional but not too extravagant.
soon i gotta get my hands on a ath perfume
