Thank you@@razvanyke. I do really look forward for your comparison. Many things been said regarding Jubilation 40 vs 25 on the net, but I think it needs honest reviewer, honest straightward opinion and and ability to appreciate the Bertrand Duchaufour's work on Jubilation. You did impressed me when you said - if you like Jubilation, just go with the Jubilation not to give an example Fragrance du Bois - New York Intense. It's similar but for sure, not identical. I'll be waiting for you video on this subject. Many thanks!
My all-time favourite. Just wish it performed better. I do not understand why, when it was created to celebrate the Company's creation, the performance is not up to Amouage standards. A REAL head-scratcher. If it performed better, I'd probably never own another fragrance.
Hey Greg, thank you for watching. I am with you on this 100% .. such an awesome smell, very special and complex and it has a very low performance. Jubi 40 is solving that, but it´s a 500€ fragrance .. not cool.
I think the issue is not the place of manufacturing, in some cases, but the reformulations that took place around the same time that they switched to the magnetic caps (with no "Amouage" around the collar). Reflection Man, Lyric Man, etc. were victims to this reformulation in the late 2010s, early 2020s.
@@razvanyke I think the difference is that Black Iris was made anew in the late 2010s and has not undergone any reformulations. The issue is that other fragrances that were already around for many years and then reformulated to comply with the IFRA regulations that were introduced in the last 2010s. Unfortunately, at the time of the reformulations there were no replacement ingredients that could be used to make the fragrance smell the same and also perform as well as before. In other words, Black Iris was created from scratch using ingredients that are still acceptable under IFRA and those IFRA-compliant ingredients were used wisely to ensure that it performs well in the 2020s.
Hello, Razvan! Thank you for all your insights into niche perfumes! Off topic though, if it’s not a problem for you, since we are stepping into warmer weather, can you please recommend a 10/10 (of course, in your opinion) fragrance for Spring or Spring/Summer for around 100 Euro? Thank you very much for everything you do for us!
Hello my friend, very nice topic, I will keep this in mind. My new favorite is Azemour les Orangers, from ParfumsdEmpire. Other top ones on my books: Cedrat Boise edp, Neroli Canvas & Issey Miyake Vetiver. O zi fainã :)!
Hello my friend, Atman Xaman EDP is stronger and smells more like tobacco + no oud. Great question, for convenience makes more sense to buy the Atman than the new Jubi batches.
@@razvanykeThanks. I'll try to get to a JM XXV UK version bottle to smell it. I've smelled JM. It has the same vibe as Atman, but it wasn't as good and as dynamic as Atman.
Salut, Am urmarit videoul si sunt tare curios de unde ai reusit sa achizitionezi aceasta sticla de Jubilation XXV in 2024 cu codul din 2019 , si la ce preț a fost. Mulțumesc
Salut Mihai, a fost o mare aventura, am gasit sticla la un magazin din Italia si am platit in plus peste pretul oficial, dar era noua si in ambalajul vechi. In locul tau, m-as linisti cu Jubilation pentru ca e un parfum excelent dar nu tine deloc si dispare in cateva minute. Pentru un Amouage .. nu are deloc performanta.
Mutumesc mult pentru raspuns . Am avut cu multi ani in urma un esantion din prima variata apărută, si am regasito de curand , am achizitionat din Romania o sticla Tester (180 €)care trebuie sa ajungă zile urmatoare acuma am să vad ce noroc am 😂
Hey, I don't know the new ones, but the old ones were not offering that at all. Maybe Meander can be so, fresh and minty. But Amouages are not very fresh in general
I had a made in UK Reflection Man around 5 years ago and it was really bad. The performance was so poor. My recently produced Reflection Man has excellent performance and smells just like the old friction lock caps versions I had back in 2010.
Salut Razvan, mulțumesc pentru acest review special. As vrea totuși sa te întreb de unde ai reușit sa cumperi acest parfum "Made in UK"? Ținând cont ca sunt o mulțime de parfumuri contrafăcute. Eu, mai nou, cumpăr doar de pe site-uri oficiale. Mulțumesc mult!
Salut Dio, mersi de feedback 🙏 L-am cumparat de la distribuitorul oficial din Italia, destul de rar de gasit. Sunt unele site-uri decente ca Profimo, Obsentum sau Douglas in RO, de restul nu mai stiu :) Daca il vrei, ma gasesti pe Parfumo.
I must disagree. the Amouage UK was a production facility and distributor, too. Of course, the scents should have been the same, but many rumours circled the forums.
I have this one too. I think I bought it 2019 or w020. For me it smells like the bar of my grandmother. Cherry old wood furniture 10%, spirit drinks not tigtly closed 30%, old tabaco 40%, 10% oud and some other thing. For me 4 /10
Definitively interested in comparison of sillage, projection and longevity of 25 vs 40. Thanks you for your work! :)
Hey Michal, many thanks for the nice words :D I am glad you enjoyed it !

Good video .....I love that fragrance. I'm looking at mine to see if it's the same colour as yours . Mine was from OMAN
Thank you, Harry 😃 Well, is it also dark? The Jubi is awesome, so bad with the batches thing. Take care!

Is that a 50ml version? I found one online but I honestly don't know if a 50ml bottle of Jubilation has ever existed! Do you know more about this?
@@cosmicwildfire6821 hey, mine was 100ml but yes the Jubi came as 50ml too. I would not bother with it if I was you.

Thank you very much, @razvanyke! I'll try getting decants for the ones I cannot sample locally and make sure to come back with my findings :)
Thanks for the review.
Does it have a similarity to Atman Xaman ?

Was the best and fresh amouage for summer???

UK is or was just a branch of the company, the scents are exactly the same as UK or Oman
I must disagree. the Amouage UK was a production facility and distributor, too. Of course, the scents should have been the same, but many rumours circled the forums.
@@razvanyke That's what I meant too, but the scents are the same whether in the UK or Oman

Hey, thanks for the feedback 😃
Fuck man..4 /10? This is garbage!
So, what about the newest batches? 2023/2024? Are they still worth buying?
Hey, not at all. I would stay away from new batches. Thanks for watching:)
@@razvanyke 🙏🏻
Pe lângă faptul că pe reformulează mai și nesimțirea să urce prețul, și nu mă refer doar la Amouage.😒
Salut Cãlin, exact asa e. Vezi Chanel si Hermes, tot urcã si urcã. Noi ar trebui sa luam masuri si nu sa sutinem politica lor ..
@@razvanyke nu e problemă, voi cumpăra doar de pe piața gri. Să se spele cu ele pe mâini😁
Nu mai cumparati ca sa se invete minte! Vor ramane cu sticlele in stoc...nu mai cumparati frate...toata lumea pe piata gri
@@eduardpetcu7055 eu doar de acolo le cumpăr😉
So they watered down Jubilation xxv and made a $500 cash grab. What Bullshet….
I am sorry to read and agree with that, but it sounds like it 🥺
Yes but The new Jubilation is easy to wear
@@sarwarkhan1185 it was dumbed down for people like you ; ) You could always just go to Sephora or Macys to buy your "cologne"
Sell it to ne 😅
🤗 no, sorry
I get my 100ml of Torino21 tomorrow.
Thank you 😃
