Yes, please do your own monstrous Oud Wood!!
I agree!
I second this request.
1000% agree! It would be so great! Or maybe even better, just your own twist on it!?
I have been wanting that for awhile it would be perfection
Yes make it all about oud give us 10% And have all other parts playing supporting roles , I like rise and fruit notes but sometimes they detract , I don’t mind smoothing , sweetening or accentuating the smokiness etc because that keeps oud as the stand out star
I love how comfy in front of the camera you are now compared to a few years ago, this feels like a real Aaron rather than a camera aaron
Real Aaron?😂😂
We don't mind the babbling at all Aaron. That's what we are here for. Your expert advice and breakdown are of great service to us all.
Don't worry about the "babbling", I enjoy watching your videos. I find it very interesting to hear how a perfumer describes fragrances. I've only really started my collection from about 4 years and am kind of addicted on the smells and how uplifting they make me feel. Everyone has to have a hobby right? 🤗
Just one? It's good to have multiple hobbies. There's too many interesting things in the world to only have one hobby
@@FSVR54 You're right. There's more than one ice cream flavour🍦 😃
I Think You Hit The Nail On The Head! Versace Oud Noir Is Actually My Fragrance Of The Day. I'd Go With Versace Oud Noir Because Is Very Similar, Stronger And Way More Affordable
Love the comparisons Aaron! Thank you for posting this.
Spot on review as always. I enjoy the detail in which you go into the dna of the fragrances and when you do these comparisons, it helps differentiate between similar scents to help articulate what the rest of us trying to put words to. Thank you!
Great job as always! Would you be interested in doing an episode on difference between classical Italian, French and English perfumery?
Great content! You are not babbling at all. Very interesting insights about how ingredients work together in a fragrance. This is information that other UA-cam fragrance reviewers either don't know or aren't willing to share. Please keep up the good work!
Aaron, I found myself obsessed with the hobby of fragrances the last couple of weeks. I just came across your channel today. You are by far the most enjoyable and informative channel on the topic. Your words are careful and thoughtful and I somehow really understand the way you talk with your hands. Great appreciation for your passion to the craft. I’m excited to continue watching and learning from you. Cheers 🥂
Keep making these the way you do. I find them soothing, plus I can learn a little. When you ramble a little it seems like you keep remembering thoughts you don't want to leave out. Combine that with the tidbits about yourself that pop up, and it becomes endearing because I can tell you are only being yourself with honesty.
I’m new to wearing fragrance and taking in lots of great info while exploring fragrance content creators. Your content stands apart due to your evocative descriptions, technical knowledge, and your fair assessments of fragrances. Thank you for sharing your passion for perfumery.
You are amazing Aaron. Everytime I watch I learn some nuances from you, salute to you!
There's something about the way you speak and describe things that drew me in and I couldn't figure out what it was. Now I realize what it is. Your reviews remind me of the early podcasts by John Galliano when he would describe the new Margiella collections. So immersive and descriptive. Love it. 👍
I love how you are comparing perfumes for us. Keep it up i know u got a company to run but we cant have enough of you!!!!!!
I absolutely agree with you Aaron. Brilliant comparison and excellent explanation that enriches our experience with these two fragrances.
I think everything you said is legit. I personally like Oud Noir better and I recently got my first bottle, so I LOVE that you're covering it!
I wore Oud Noir to visit a friend last week who owns Oud Wood, and she immediately said "Oh, you're wearing Oud Wood?" I say "no, I'm wearing MY 'Oud Wood,'"
I know they're NOT the same, and I wasn't looking for an Oud Wood replacement, but Oud Noir does more of what I wish Oud Wood does, starting with being able to smell it and enjoy it as I wear it. It's like my personal Oud Wood Plus!
Oud Wood is phenomenal, but it's very subtle and then it disappears. Couple that with the expense, I can't justify getting it for myself no matter how nice it is.
Thanks!!
I love hearing your thoughts and thought process, don't change a thing.
Oh wow.... I have both bought independently of each other and have never considered layering together.Fantastic insight to these fragrances as always ATH!
Babble on Aaron!! Keep it 💯
thank you for such good analysis and insight
Sorry for the long comment but, I want to say that I am glad I found your channel. I love fragrances and have since I was a child. My first fragrance was Old Spice then I graduated to Drakkar Noir, Curve, Cool Water, and many more, Liz Clayborne and Chanel "Allure" being my favorite. Now I can afford a more expensive house Maison Frances Kurkdjian and TF being my two favorites. Keep up the good work and I'll continue to watch, Like, and support!
Hi Aaron, I love your well informed and honest reviews. I like Oud Wood and I am relying on your upcoming Oud Wood Parfum review ❤
Bable on, we love these honest reviews
I think you have tremendous talent and the passion to elevate skill to art.
I LOVE that review, with the bubbling for sure!!!. I completely agree, like both of them, but I really love Oud Wood. It's been in my collection since 2020 and every time I wear it, I love more.
Regards
I would like to hear more recommendations for layering. A whole video on what would work and why. And what wouldn’t.
Aaroon pardon me but it's a guilty pleasure of me getting excited whenever you say Versace in the beginning of the video :D
Thanks Aaron. I received my Hard Candy Elixir, and my Onyx Extreme. Both are masterpieces. I can’t keep my nose off them!
Best reviewer in the business 👍 I would love to try your take on oud wood 😍
I would love to see your take on oud wood, I think you could also take a classic like Royal Oud or Green Irish Tweed and make a more modern version of it.
Frankly, I'm really surprised we haven't seen an official flanker of Green Irish Tweed from Creed. I think a Green Irish Tweed parfum would be incredible, as would a more light citrus Cologne version.
Aaron, I've just watched a few of your older videos and I noticed your affection towards Parfums de Marly. What about a collaboration with them? Seriously! I believe it would be a massive story and that a fantastic fragrance would come out. It'd be historic!
So hard to look past Oud Wood. Such a high quality feel in an easy to wear Oud fragrance and light as you say. Totally get what you say re Oud Noir being cold weather only. I currently have Antaeus for that role, but will consider Oud Noir for next Winter. Cheers Aaron. Always interesting content. And the babble is why we appreciate you. Real.... 😊
I think there's really strong similarity, definitely same family 🙂 the pepperiness of oud noir is really what sets it apart for sure. I really like them both, but that sense of radiance and appeal of the original is really really great. I like the idea of layering them, I will definitely have to try that 🙂 thanks as always, Aaron!
Great review sir. I own oud wood but have never smelled out noir. Can't buy any of your fragrances as I live in Trinidad. Hopefully some day I will be able to. Cheers
Great video definitely would like to see your review of Initio parfums Paragon 👍🏿👍🏿
Tom Ford "Oud Wood (Aaron Terence Hughes Version)" sound like something I'd buy INSTANTLY!
When Aaron started talking about doing his own take on Oud Wood with monstrous performance, I was like, "PLEASE GOD, PLEASE!"
Babble away ✨!
Im all in for the monstrous oud wood version of yours. Also make a video of how to do layering
Thanks for the video, the rambling is the best part.
Never tried Versace oud noir, although heard much about it. Fragrance influencers always call it a good beginner oud. went with Oud malaki instead as beginner oud, but don't wear it a lot., it has kind of an old man smell to it.
Will need to smell tom ford oud wood again in the shop, I recall it as being funky, so Im surprised you call it airy and light. but its been a long time ago smelling it.
Also very curious to smell your fragrances here in europe the netherlands. Here we have skins cosmetics and the bijenkorf which sell niche perfumes. hopefully some day your perfumes get sold there too.
and yes do your own take on as many good perfumes are you can.
Good to hear Forbidden is coming back albeit under a different name. It's a stunner! 🤗
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.
Fantastic review! 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟
I think people really love video like that :) will be so nice to see comparison between D&G Light Blue (for her) vs Versace Man eau Ftaiche - are very similar to each other
Thank you so much for this video! I have been working on a formula with hydroxycitronellal, and have been wondering why I couldn't quite get it to work properly. It feels, as you said, unfinished. I will definitely be looking for more lily of the valley materials.
Excellent video thanks
I have Versace, and it is absolutely fantastic, but it fades quickly on me. I haven't sampled Tom Ford yet, but the combination of the two would probably help considerably to last longer. Thank you for your input on this. It is much appreciated. Great production work, by the way.
Personally i would like to see 20 min babbling video once per week. You are so captivating. Thanks you 🤩
I love this guy.. the way he explained.. thank you
BEST perfume reviews EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have Oud Wood and Oud Noir. I like them both but I prefer Oud Noir only because it lasts longer although the TF smells better IMO. Yet to have Oud Wood Parfum at my place so I can't wait to test it once it enters the market here.
Layer them - I'll give that a try. You're right, they are cousins. I prefer OW as the scent but ON performs better on me. Looking forward to the parfum.
Yes, please do your take on Oud Wood, it would be fantastic.
I got both Versace Oud Noir and Tom Ford Oud wood, i think that they are kind of similar!
And yeah, i use to layer them sometimes!
I think Our Noir is a great alternative for TF Oud Wood. But it's actually greener than OW. A nice office friendly beginner oud fragrance.
Babbling is great! No worries!
Versace Oud Noir is fairly bright and aggressive (and mineral/metallic) upon first spray. I’m ok with it, my wife does not like it. But the longer it stays on skin the better it gets. I enjoy the journey and consider it a very sophisticated, elegant wear on the whole. Once those top notes recede my wife likes it, and we both love the dry down. It’s a fantastic “dress to impress” choice.
Oud Wood is a classic, but I can rarely smell it. Way too light for me (and on me) and it doesn’t pack that “wow factor” that so many others do at this price point. Which is fine, because the Oud Noir does the trick, especially at less than half the price per 100ml.
Love the comparison. I layer them as well but more time than not, I wear Oud Noir on it's own. It is actually one of my most complimented fragrances ever. Oud Noir just works. I love both of them and can't wait for the Oud Wood Parfum as well.
Can I ask when you bought your bottle?
My 2022 Oud Noir is barely noticeable to others - I've gotten zero comments/compliments
How do you layer? 1:1?
The OG Tom Ford Oud Wood and Tom Ford Noir EDP are my signature scents. I anticipate a welcome return to the original formulation with an Oud Wood Parfum release.
Been dying to see what you and Frag think of Bond NO9 fragrances. Been wearing Layfette Street and it feels signature.
Please do your take on some of those classic TF fragrances that have died out, like K**T being relatable to Tuscan Leather. I would love to see your "Oud Wood" and "Tobacco Oud" but Tobacco Oud might be redundant since we will be getting Smoulder 2.0.
Aaron, if you make your own Oud Wood take - I'd buy it in a heartbeat!
And I'm sure I speak for many of us when I say that :)
You love this fragrance! You need to make your own!!!!
Oud Wood is on my all time top list. Such an incredible scent, and the good old days of TF, when they were the best on the market (IMHO).
I would love to see your take, on this masterpiece. btw, it's so hard to get your stuff. Always sold out. 😢😢😢
Fragrance enthusiasts should be pleased to hear you interpret how you see scents work; it’s got that “Thing” which triggers something in the subconscious. These insights make for great fragrance reviews and discussion.
This is not what I would call babbling, No need to apologize. 😎
I love TF Oud Wood and can’t wait to try the Parfum. :)
Totally agree with you Aaron! Oud Wood is a masterpiece formulation but the light and airyness means it only lasts a few hours. Hopefully the Parfum fixes that! Also a dirty sexy ATH version of Oud Wood would be amazing😉 🤤
Great review! Can you try out some Toskovat fragrances? For one, "Inexcusable Evil" by Toskovat?
Absolutely would second this! Would love to hear your take on this one
You should have added Thameen Carved Oud also for comparison.
A beast mode Oud Wood will definitely have a lot of people interested in like myself.
Aaron is glorious!
Still growing intonOud Wood. Starter collector. Have had the "blues" as long as i can remember🤔
Pls do your take on TF OUD WOOD ....love your work ! MSG to Alex ....my NEON ????
Finally. 😍
I have Versace Oud Noir 2015 batch tester bottle and its macerated about 5 years..The smell is very good and longevity is good too..not chemical at all..
What do you think of akigalawood?
I would love to hear your thoughts and a review of a fragrance with the note.
Aaron please review Psychedelique from Jovoy i think you would love it
I agree with you Aaron oud wood is a nice smell but doesn’t last on my skin , oud noir is my favourite I adore oriental style fragrances
PLEASE AARON, please for the love of God do another review on gucci intense oud. With another decanter though, I’m convinced you had the woman’s version
Aaron! Please review Oud maracuja by Maison Crivelli. Its said to be similar to Ombre Nomade LV
Very Interesting comparison. I have both TF Oud Wood and Versace Oud Noir. I 💜both scents and layering the airiness of Oud Wood with the heavier Oud Noir. sounds like a winner to me. Good work.
How do you layer? 1:1?
Lighter Oud Wood over the heavier Oud Noir is 🔥
@@4BigAJ thanks!
Please, get more fragrances out to Maxaroma so I can buy them !!
Thank You !!
I like both for different occasions.
Triple dare you to create your own take on oud wood!!
Versace Oud Noir is definitely underrated, looking to pick this up soon.
Please put me on the list if you do your version of oud wood!
My GF loves Oud Wood and she actually likes it the most when it's not on me. She likes to smell my dress shirts the day after. She says Oud Wood and a bit of my body order mixed with it is intoxicating.
If I were you I'd create a fragrance that's like Oud Wood but for lack of a better way of saying it add a bit of male body order to it.
Don't wear a fragrance and smell your shirts the next day and try to add that in.
Were all here for the babble. We like learning. All other reviewers just reads the accords on fragrantica
Are you ever going to do a review on Xerjoff’s Alexandria iii?
Would love your take on Oud wood…do it.
Please do an ATH Oud Wood powerhouse
We are here because we love and enjoy your content and all the babbling.
Hey Aaron if you are trying Oud wood similar fragrances please try KREDO by Nishane.
You will be surprised how good that one is compared to oud wood as they took the oud wood dna and made it so much better it’s more oud, animalistic & very much long lasting.
The combination of both of them, as you've described it, sounds to me just like how does Nishane Kredo smells.
Please do the Mont Blanc explorer platinum
I have both and layer like you said 👍.
Please you do your version of TF oud wood, i love the scent but it's disappointing how it doesn't last at all.
Aaron, world needs Your ,Oud Wood’
I was never thrilled with Oud Wood and even back in the day it didn’t last on my skin. I preferred and purchased (original) Oud Minerale and Oud Fleur.
Missed this one, great comparison.. love oud wood but doesn't last.
How do I get ATH fragrances in the states. Website is all sold out. Love your reviews, but want to sample the real thing!!
When are u getting hard candy back in stock ??
🎊 🍷🍻🎉🕺🏾🥳 🔥Oud wood by Aaron Terence ok the video ended there for me. I have a feeling it’s already on the works!!!!
