I own ten bottles for a year now, and have decants of the rest (total ~23). I can say that these age incredibly well! They gain intensity, longevity and a richness of color, as they settle and age. People like to say there must have been changes to the formula, but having them from different time periods, I can say it’s just the aging process. Like a fine wine.
Great review Yana 🙌🏻
Ooouu good to know!! I'm excited to try more from this house 😊 I'm gonna watch your house review after I pick up my late lunch/early dinner lol
I did a big review, but have another one coming up to fill in the blanks of a few I didn’t cover (Vert, rouge, bleu). 😘
@@GretaBeth I would love to hear your thoughts on cannabis blue. It was an impulsive buy but I like cannabis intense more, the intense smells less than the blue.
Very true. I got a 15ml sample of Oud Noir Intense 6 months ago and it get's stronger by the month!
I have thought that as well. Thanks for your critical thinking I agree. So many people knee jerk reply (on fragrantica) awww reformulated the older is light years better than the new one"...when I read something like that, I don't give that reviewer any credence. No thought snap judgment and hyperbole without thinking what could be the case is too easy to do.
😂🤣😂”OMG it’s so goood… kind of reviewer.” Dead. So true Yana.
😂😂😂
There are already hundreds of FdB videos already, but I'm very excited for your opinion because you are charismatic and unfiltered 😍
I threw a little bit of shade 🙈 but I have to be honest when something stands out and when it doesn't
😂
You’re so honest in your reviews. Lol. I love it. The repugnancy that you had for the non amber fragrance was clear. And funny.
I have seen so many Fragrance Du Bois reviews. Your review is the best. I love your honesty. I don’t prefer this scent profile. To me, they’re too masculine.
I think your review is spot on. I have smelled all of these and I own Oud Vert Intense which I use for office wear and love it. I am not a fan of Santal Complet or Oud Jaune Intense. Oud Blue Intense is on my to buy list. I also own New York Intense and look forward to wearing that when it gets cooler
Nice video! I agree with virtually everything you said. I have Oud Noir, Vert, Bleu, and Orange as well as Milano and Santal Complete. I love them all but Oud Noir is just so amazing - it starts off kind of like sour liquorice on my skin and then evolves into this mysterious and seductive but still soapy clean scent - like James Bond in a tuxedo on a date with a Russian spy. I love Heritage as well, but it is a bit too feminine for me, so I think I might see what my wife thinks of it as a possible gift.
I love how Oud Orange behave in cold weather, when north wind cleans the air. Oud Bleu is one of my fav too. For summery feeling Oud Jaune is Intoxicating, but have to be in a mood i admit. Santal Complet is one i prefer in colder months, countryside, you can see the stars, everything is peacefull.
Forgot New York 5th Avenue Intense, like softer version with a pinch of caramel of MFKs Oud Satin Mood. Have to try Oud Noir.
I blind bought black platinum because of you. I got it today and I LOVE IT!! Stocking up for sure!
I'm so glad you love it!! that made my day :)
I got a sample of Oud Orange and fell deeply in love. These scents are not part time job friendly hahaha Some day.
Siberian Rose is in the collection that does NOT have Oud. Their specialty is their Oud, as you pointed out. I’m not sure I would go for that collection first, especially given the price points. Def go for their ouds, which are Bar None! They didn’t steer you wrong 😉
I have a lot to learn from you about this house, you have so many! Their oud dominant ones definitely stood out to me, they do an exceptional job with this note and you're 100% right that if you're going to pick just one to go for one of their ouds since it is their specialty.
Siberian Rose just peaked my interest because it has been pretty hyped lately 🙈
Hahaha! You’ve been “influenced!” 😂😆😉
Great review! I also enjoy wearing Oud Bleu Intense. Oud Noir Intense is another fragrance I love to wear year round. Thank you for your honest thoughts on Fragrance du Bois.
Omg thank god I actually ordered a decant of Milano today in the hopes that it would smell like a leathery version of Erba pura 🙏🏼 and you’ve just confirmed my suspicion haha
The description of Milano was spot on, to me too is a mix of Black saffron with Erba pura, but if I would have to pick a leather fragrance I'd go with Biblioteque, Tuscan leather or even Falcon leather. I've tried only eight fragrances from FDB and I must say I wasn't impressed with the performance. I did like the smell, especially of Oud violet, Oud bleu, Oud noir and London oud, but on my skin they didn't last more than 2-3 hours. After that, I could barely sniff them on my wrists. That is quite a pity since they are so expensive and I really wanted to buy one for the holidays, but I guess I'll get something else.
Thank you for the video!
I have Julianna’s Oud Orange Imperiale and LOVE it. I’d probably like Oud Orange Intense, but wow is it spendy. Julianna’s is one of my favs, so I may stick with it. ☺️
Julianna's is extremely close! 😉
Santal Complet wouldn’t last on me. I had to re-spray three or four times and went through a 2 ml decant in one day. The scent had some strange scratchy feel; not bad, just strange.
You are a number one baby. 10/10 as a fragrance reviewer, Great Job ❤️👍. Hi from México 🇲🇽
Thank you! ❤️ 😊
Oud Bleu reminds me a bit of Meander or Enclave by Amouage (but 2x the price).
5th Avenue Intense is nice, and not as aggressively priced as the 'oud' ones.
Interesting, I'll have to check out those Amouage fragrances! :)
Maybe you like 40 knots from Xerjoff this one is an Special aquatic fragrance to 🙃🙂
Heritage is my signature scent. I wear it all year round. The longevity is pretty good in my skin 8hrs
Nice!! Heritage is stunning
Nor excited about the house in general. Can't find one I love love....Great video as only you can do. Love you
I just came here to ask for a Serge Lutens shopping or beginners guide, please! Love your videos.
Also they have a Swarovski edition, bottle is covered in crystals.... may have to cop me a bunch of those
I have oud bleu intense and sahraa
I am really really happy you did this review. I am eyeing FdB for a while, not talking about the prices, which are ... a bit offensive to me 🤪. I have got the sample of Oud Jaune Intense from the Luckyscent, aaand... it took me months to like it. At first sniff it was a synthetic strawberry. Now I feel the depth of it and I like it. But it took me a half a year to like it 😎. I have noticed the Julianna's made a dupe of Oud Orange Intense, and apparently plan to do the dupes of Santal Complet and Oud Jaune Intense. Well, we will see. I definitely want to try this house. Maybe just to understand those prices (?). I know they grow their own agarwood trees, I understand. But still.
P.S. I loved those intermezzos with "your man" - he has a pleasant voice, with your cat and dog. I would like to squash them 😍
The FdB prices are definitely up there, but they're a luxury brand so when people buy lux it's not only about the quality but also a "status" thing, and the satisfaction of having some precious item. I have smelled soooo many extremely expensive fragrances (aside from FdB) and am often so thrown off by the price point to quality/performance ratio. It's not always justified
@@TheScented True. I understand the psychology behind that. Perhaps you might make a video about luxury brands that you think are worth it (?)
Adriana, 🇷🇺👋
@@adrianavargova That'd be a very subjective video. If YOU love a fragrance then it's worth it.
Great review, I am so surprised to find someone with the same taste as me. I usually hate aromatic, spicy notes and thought I would like the popular scents like Oud, Juan, Rose, Orange, Siberian Rose. Suprisingly Oud Orange made me want to heave it's horrible, but my favourite's were Oud Bleu Intense - Incredible!!!! I couldn't stop smelling my arm and Oud Vert!
So helpful! I’ve been curious about so many of these! What other sandalwoods do you think the Santal complet is closest to?
Good evening, which fragrances would you recommend for a signature scent ?
Ha! At $400ish per bottle that hot rich guy can keep his fragrance. lol. Enjoy your reviews! Esp. as a fragrance newb, they help me decide where to spend money and where I can appreciate from afar. Thanks!
It def has something of Erba Pura of Xerjoff but is less boring, at least to me
Very very nice reviews .great video
“Oh my God it’s so goood”
“Guys………guuuuyyyys, it’s. SO. GOOD”
“It just makes me feel some kind of way”
My absolute favorite type of reviewer😂😂
Sounds like Paulina Schar is speaking to me rn 😂
Thanx, Yana. Is the Oud bleu one feminine ??
I find it a touch more masculine leaning, but I like wearing slightly masculine scents so I'd still wear it
@@TheScented Me toooo !!! 😊 This perfume intrigued me a lot. I wear Layton ( PDM) , Pi (Givenchy) and Spicebomb and a lot of others marketed for men 😂
Thank you for the video! I'm curious did you have to overspray to get good performance with Santal Complet? :)
Nope, i only sprayed about 3-4 sprays
@@TheScented I just got my first bottle of Santal Complet because of your review but it's very weak. My batch is 21-105 😢
Ooooh I want Santal Complet😍😍
U r so honest 🙏 thank u for that n u look amazing 🤩
So interesting, usually you and I have very similar taste but I hated oud rose intense. I though it was so juvenile and smelled like artificial fruit punch reminiscent of ‘Juicy Juice’ as a kid. I wouldn’t like this on myself or on a guy. Similar to your thought on juane.
Interesting...🤔 I wonder if they have inconsistent batches
That’s a really good point. When they decant to, I always wonder about ‘settling’ in the blend, more maceration time (because with decants a greater surface area touched by air), ect. All companies manufacturing processes are subject to some inconsistencies, especially small batch operations. Also there have to be differences in raw materials, not every flora fauna is exactly the same every season. Just like wine…
Thanks!
Found a website that sells this brand for like 40 bucks per bottle? Not sure if it's real
Would you wear any of these masculine scents? do people ever think you smell like aftershave? sorry for the bluntness but i am really interested in trying these but i dont want to smell like a man
Lol no worries! Nobody ever thinks I smell like aftershave because those are not the type of masculine scents I wear 😊 a lot of niche masculine scents smell really unique and there are a select few designer men's fragrances that I reach for
which would you request for me? i am kind of picky i dont like sharp ambers i also dont like vintage perfumey white florals i didnt really care for my new ylang ylang i do like coconut i have delina i also like vanilla i dont like powdery medicinal like baccarat rouge yuck some sound good
Wet,old rocks! Got me! 😂
The ones you like are too masculine for me lol. I'd love to know which ones are feminine/sexy/fruity/sweet
Oud Jaune Intense and Oud Orange intense are the most feminine, sweet and fruity 🥰
nice review !
Very good review.
Fragrances really are subjective. Candy from oud jaune, wow. I get mostly tropical florals and slight coconut. I find oud orange to be alot more sweet and candy. Was my least as I dont care for sweet candy Fragrances.
🌹
I dont like Fragrance du Bois, too much oud, and NOTHING INTERSTING in this house for me! (And this marketing is too pushy as well, not sympatic) But thank you for your review, it must be a great house, just not for me.🤷🏼♀️😘
Navitus has better DNA that my nose likes. Fragrance du Bois is overpriced, hopefully one day I can find one that’s worth my 💸.
