Im from Mumbai, India. The way you describe this brand's products makes us want to buy this right now. Keep giving such amazing descriptions of these perfumes. I know that this is one of the best niche house. You are lucky enough to have all these stuffs of this brand! Wish you all the best!
What a beautiful collection and a cool prologue with the colorful hexagon bottoms of bottles lined up! I feel its "DNA" of the geometric Effluvium cover✨ There used to be a store here that had a lineup from this brand, and I remember liking Yerbamate and Spezie. I'd love to explore this brand again, especially Ambra too💗
Oh what a passionate presentation of artwork from LV! Now I will devote myself to trying all the perfumes from that house; for now i own and enjoy Teint de Neigre and Musk. Thank you ❤❤❤
So great to hear your descriptions and take on this brand. I just returned from Florence and was lucky to visit Lorenzo Villoresi’s museum (it was a 2min walk from our accommodation!). Rather than presenting what one might expect from such a “museum” -a history of perfumery- visitors are given a guided tour of ingredients and materials with lots of opportunity to smell and identify ingredients along the way. Our visit finally ended with an introduction to Villoresi’s creations. It was my first time trying any of his fragrances but I purchased some samples to take home and explore. The shop, museum and Villoresi’s offices are situated in a beautifully renovated villa that’s been in his family for years. 🥰
Thank you! The museum still sounds pretty cool, even if it doesn't quite sound like what I expected it to be. I would love to visit Florence some day soon! 😍
@@JJColb I definitely found it cool! I still have so much to learn about perfume and got a lot out of becoming introduced and/or familiarized with individual notes and ingredients. I also learned that the absence of any chypre or aquatic fragrances in his collection was because, "Sig. Villoresi doesn't like them himself so won't make them" .. LOL. One of the benefits of being your own boss!
Wonderful presentation of this house, JJ! I just received Atman Xaman in the mail, and experiencing it for the first time now. What an elegantly blended perfume! So gorgeously’smoky leather’ or ‘leathery tobacco’, as you put it. I have seen it compared several times to 1740, which I can definitely smell, but also to my nose in the dry down I am picking up very clearly Tauer’s Lonestar Memories. Perhaps it’s the clothes giving it a bit of that camphorous quality. Either way, this stuff is divine!
Very nice review of the house. Your spiritual connect with these solvents is clearly visible! I own 4 of them. I have Musk, Atman Xaman, Patchouli and Alamut. I am wondering what my next one should be. Should it be Dilum, Yerbamate or Speize. I want to avoid Theasus since I own lot of Vetivers. What do you suggest for a person who is open to anything, but want less powderiness. Both Musk and Alamut have a prominent powdery aspect.
Thank you so much! That means a ton to me. I’d go for Yerba Mate if I were you-one of my first loves from the house. Then again, it may feel powdery to you. Otherwise, Spezie. 👍
Love the name Theseus for a fragrance. Amazing overview JJ. Atman Xaman remains the only one I tried and even that was a total fluke. But like you mentioned, thank goodness those modern woody ambers aren't present to stifle the composition. You've got me intrigued with "rose-scented mushrooms!" 😄
I’ve tried Amber and Spezie. And I’m conquered by their distinguished rich beauty. I was a bit afraid that spezie will be too harsh for me, but it is surprisingly delicate, melting and soft for a spicy perfume. Amber is so beautiful that I don’t have words to explain. And they tell me stories , very imaginative. Veloressi is an artist, a true one.
Having a lunch break and sought out scent reviews that would bring me joy, your channel is my 1st choice today. I’m not familiar with this House but now I want to go to Florence to get the full experience. Thank you JJ for sharing your thoughts and letting us know about Brad Pitts signature fragrance. My husband may need to have it to complete my younger self fantasy 😁🤙🏼
Thanks for this JJ, one of my favorite perfumers. Uomo and Theseus get a lot of weartime from me in warmer weather and Ambra for the cool months. I need to sample the last few I haven’t had a chance to try.
You seem like the right guy to ask; have you ever smelled Martin de Candre Vetyver? If yes, would you please describe it! Villoresi's Vetiver is a favourite of mine. Great video of a great brand!
I will buy a decant of Atman Xaman and Musc, (hoping that Atman Xaman is not similar to 'Immortelle Corse' of Parfum D'Empire). Do you think they both have at least 1-2 hours of projection and a bit of sillage?
Is there difference in the notes between teint de neige edt and edp ? Which one is more beautiful i want powdery fragrance with a hint of sweetness please help me
What an excellent and wonderfully descriptive video of what I consider an underrated house. Sandalo, Ambra, and Teint de Neige are the most enjoyable events from the house for me.
Different types flower of Lorenzo villoresi..What you're opinion best smell villoresi name please ... I am search Google, but different color, different name, totally confused..

Pure joy to watch and listen. Magical music choice as always. Thank you.
This makes me smile. You’re most welcome, and thank you!!
Wonderful video as always. I knew you were going to swoon over this house haha. The description of each fragrance is articulated beautifully.
A long-time love affair with LV’s works! 🌟 Thank you my friend ☺️
Fantastic collection with JJ's usual flair for description. Even Linus gets a shout out. A very enjoyable watch and listen.
Thanks so much, Kevin! It means a lot to me.

Yes! It does echo the "video weavings" geometry of the Effluvium covers! 💗
Almighty JJ Colbourne! It's a pleasure to listen to you. As always! I'm wearing Musk today. Thanks for the reminder ; )
I am surely humbled. Thank you so very much! 🙏
A beautiful survey of a terrific house. Villoresi is a true master of the art.
Thank you so much, my friend!

You’re welcome, and thank you so much! 🙏☺️
Poetic descriptions for fragrance masterpieces 😊❤
Thank you ☺️🙏
LORENZO VILLORESI FIRENZE: HOUSE, ONE OF THE BEST IN THE WORLD! HIS CREATIONS ARE LIKE POEMS.
Agreed 😌
👍🏻👌🏼🙏🏻
He does some superb stuff. Love Piper Nigrum, Spezie, Musk and Uomo. Great rundown Joe and gotta try some of these other beauties😋
Thanks, Ben! As always, stellar taste 👌

Cloves!
What an excellent choice!! Hell, I don’t mind the smell of cloves ON my clothes 😉

Nice collection. I love spezie . It reminds me of the Mediterranean country side. Sublime.
Thank you! I do agree that it's sublime ☺

Isn't that a great name? Thanks so much, Doni! Villoresi resists trends and fads in perfume, and for that reason I love him. Yes!!! 🌹🍄

He truly is an artist. I’m so glad you find joy in both of these beautiful creations.
@@JJColb I’ll definitely try majority of his creations and purchase some full bottles. They are timeless and done masterfully with love.
Great video, 'UOMO' is my absolute favourite from this house.
Thank you! Nice 👍

Good to hear from you, Tammie! You should definitely explore the house. I’m sure your husband would smell sexy wearing LV musk. 😁
Fabulous Video!!! 👏🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏👏👏👏
Thank you so very much! ♥🙏☺
Great review! ❤ I have been wanting to try Teint de neige.
Thank you! 😊

The pleasure is mine, my friend! Theseus is a real treat in the summer. ☀️
I agree with your views/assessments of this house!!
Thanks so much Eric! 🙏

Villoresi's Vetiver is a favourite of mine.
Great video of a great brand!
Hey, thanks so much! To be honest, I actually haven’t-I sure wish I could help. I am actually curious now!
I will buy a decant of Atman Xaman and Musc, (hoping that Atman Xaman is not similar to 'Immortelle Corse' of Parfum D'Empire). Do you think they both have at least 1-2 hours of projection and a bit of sillage?
I think they do.
Is there difference in the notes between teint de neige edt and edp ? Which one is more beautiful i want powdery fragrance with a hint of sweetness please help me
The notes are similar but the EDP is far too intense for my taste. I have and enjoy the EDT.
Wonderful review: was wondering what do you think about wild lavender ?
I actually need to try that one! Believe it or not, I haven't sampled everything from the house ☺
I have never tried any of them ! Is this one those houses where it's preferable to go vintage ?
Hey there! Oh, no, the newest formulations are still stellar 🌟
@@JJColb I went with Atman Xaman EDP (blind bought) as my first Lorenzo Villoresi. Can't wait to finally try the house !
i have never owned any of his perfumes but certainly will very soon .
Be sure to sample if you can. Enjoy! 👍
Have you smelled Ortigia fragrances JJ? I think he perfumed them too
I haven't, but I shall check them out!
What an excellent and wonderfully descriptive video of what I consider an underrated house. Sandalo, Ambra, and Teint de Neige are the most enjoyable events from the house for me.
Thank you so muuch!
Why are there only eau de toilettes of some of villoresis scents?
Perhaps Villoresi did not feel compelled to compose an EDP version for certain concepts.
Different types flower of Lorenzo villoresi..What you're opinion best smell villoresi name please ... I am search Google, but different color, different name, totally confused..
I’m not sure that I follow. Are you asking for my favorite floral Lorenzo Villoresi fragrance??
@@JJColb 🥰👍
@@JJColb yes, sir your favorite..
@@MuniMuni-si2ju as far as florals, definitely Garafano 😍
🤝😍👍
Don't you think Atman Xaman is a masterpiece and the best fragrance from the lineup?
Masterpiece is quite the superlative, but I’d say it near reaches it. I do love it, but Ambra and Yerba Mate are my two favorites.
