I’ve been obsessed with xerjoff starlight lately. Sucks that the weather is warming up because I want to keep wearing it 😢 but that’s definitely a great cardamom fragrance, best I’ve smelled so far
Cardamon is my favorite note. Btw, Memo’s Iberian Leather has a similar use of cardamon, however it’s more polarizing then African leather. In the designer realm I love Tom Ford’s cardamon in the Noir Extremes and Ombre leather EDP. JPG’s LMLP also has a great cardamon note upfront.
iberian leather is my favorite fragrance i’ve encountered. i was told it’s discontinued so if you enjoy it, might want to grab a bottle soon. i find the price of memo to be ridiculous but i feel like iberian leather is an exception because it’s so strong with only 1 spray and lasts 12+ hrs on skin for me. lasts months on clothes. i got lucky and found a bottle for 170$
Cardamom (called Elaichi in India) is a widely and commonly used spice in tea, biryani, pulav and sweets (especially the ones made as an offering to our deities called prasad). It adds a sophisticated layer of taste to the dish and it's also a great antioxidant. Love Sauvage Elixir as it captures the exact essence of cardamom
Love Enclave. Stunning, well done. Another cardamom fragrance I really enjoy is Soul Batik by Moresque. Has that warm spice that is inviting someone to get closer to you rather than announcing to the whole room you are there.
3 of my favourite cardamom fragrances featured here are: African Leather, La Nuit De L'Homme Bleu Electrique, and Layton But my sexiest cardamom fragrance is Le Male Le Parfum, wow this one gets me compliments every time I wear this, literally every time from complete strangers. Its amazing
I’ve been waiting for this exact video topic for years. Thank you JC for being different than every other channel. Most of these I haven’t tried yet. I’m intrigued to get my nose on them. I really enjoyed the description of what and where cardamom comes from. Hopefully you will do more notes like patchouli, maybe vetiver, labdanum etc. I find these types of videos are not only educational but inspiring as well. Thanks again and peace ✌🏻
Very beautiful educational video Justin. I love the note of cardamom. Honorable mentions that were not in your video include Xerjoff Ivory Route, Amouage Boundless and in the designer category, the best realistic cardamom fragrance is Costume National Homme Parfum. Such a high quality and edgy designer scent. Top notch
Gris Charnel EDP/Extrait, Gisada Ambassador/Intense, Penhaligons Blazing Mr. Sam, and Memo African Leather are all loves for me. I can’t get enough of these fragrances and cardamom in general. I may be in the minority here, but Desir Toxic didn’t work for me. I like it, but I don’t love it. I had a bottle and sold it. I am finding that cannabis doesn’t work for me. Great content as usual. I am looking forward to your battle with Equality Fragrance. 😁🙏🏿🙏🏿✊🏿
I come from the middle east and we used to drop a pod of cardamom in the tea pot when brewing it. Also in some areas you get coffee (Turkish style) with cardamom that has already been ground to a dusty constituency. Usually the variety used in tea is preferred to be a little more on the green side, while the coffee variety is usually the dried variety.
Justin, I really gotta thank you for using Fragrance Bros' photograph on 0:05. I totally forgot about his channel and I feel bad at myself for that 😔. It's been years since I last watched his content. The UA-cam algorithm really isn't what it used to be. We don't get to see our favorites so often any longer. Thanks again.
Great list Cope! I love that you included African Leather from Memo. It is a masterpiece. For me the leather is not that noticeable. And the Gris Charnel Extrait was already on my radar but now I think I will pull the trigger and buy it😂
I blindnly bought LNDL at the time but it smells way too powdery off my skin. I really love that beautiful opening but cannot stand the base. However when someone ask me what is the sexiest fragrance for men i always say without thinking: Dior Homme Intense. Classy, complex and easy to wear at the same time, consistently evolving on the skin hour after hour.
Love how Justin is a historian and teacher, student of the fragrance. I need to pull out my La Nuits. I've left designer for niche so that stuff is water to me now.
I still have the original formula 6.7 vial from 2010s and I only spray for occasions even when I know it loses life after 5 years. I can’t part with it knowing they reformulated.
Cardamom could also be confused with cinnamon, not only because they're a little bit similar, but they're often used together in both food and fragrances. Even if not listed, I can almost always smell both when I smell one. La Nuit for example doesn't list cinnamon, but it's very cinnimalic smelling to me, it almost smells the way that this bakery next to a grocery store I worked at used to smell when I'd walk past it.
I just started collecting and wearing fragrances again and the first scent that i fell in love with was La Nuit De L’homme. Now i know i love cardamom!
I see a brother tank printer in the background. I know its not the best printer, but its the most sensible purchase. Therefore I am happy to declare my appreciation for your honesty and intellect. Opinion accepted
African Leather, oh how I love thee!!! I shied away from it for too long, thinking it was going to be leather heavy. Thankfully, I was sent a free sample, IMMEDIATELY bought a full bottle the moment I smelled it. So FN good!
Nice video Justin, enjoyed watching it. Wish there were more Designers in the perfume world using cardamom. Niche perfume prices in Pacific countries is dear as poison. 😂
Cardamon is one of my all-time favorite notes. The majority of my (baby) collection probably has cardamon in it 😂. I have tried African Leather... And I would love to have it for myself. Way more wearable than I thought it would be.
Cardamom? What first pops to my mind, after La Nuit de L'homme, is some offerings in D&G The One line: The One EDT, The One EDP and The One Royal Night (I prefer the EDP).
My go to signature for a couple years now has been Dolce & Gabanna The One. Dark, spicy, tobacco notes but definitely some elegant sweetness there too. Just looked it up, cardamom right in the heart notes, so it makes sense!
African leather is my favorite fragrance so far. Yes the leather isn’t as prominent as you’d think but the cumin and saffron are so dope. My gf came thru clutch on our anniversary and got me a bottle
Thanks for this kind of video. It's awesome to have notes explained and how different perfumes use it. Cardamom became my favorite note when I first smelled it in YSL La Nuit but these days I'm looking for a heavier cardamon fragrance to replace the YSL. Before cardamon, I really liked Rosemary with sage fragrances and that's how I got into pefume. I love fresh scents that don't try to smell like metal or water. I love spicy cardamon. You keep me interested in Cartier 😂
I love cardamom! Both green and black cardamom, both for smell and taste. I love black cardamoms smokiness it’s aroma is intoxicating and it’s amazing in curries. Green cardamom might even more intoxicating it’s such a unique scent and flavor. It’s truly magical. It also is a staple for me in curries. I really wanna get more into cardamom as a fragrance note cause as a spice I absolutely love it! It’s really quite interesting that the two main varieties of cardamom come from two completely different plant species. Black cardamom has a distinct smokiness because it’s dried with fire.
Currently flying through a sample of intoxicated, it is indeed very intoxicating, the dryness it has reminds me of lunar rocks for some reason, like the stones of the moon or a planetoid, B-612 couldve been a great name for this too imo hehe
I really enjoyed this video. Great work, JC. You have nudged me ever closer to BDK Gris Charnel Extrait. It might be just what I'm looking for. I'm gonna get my nose on this one. -- CJ --
Awesome video and cumin is one of those scents that you have to be open minded with I have Rasasi Tasmeen and when I first tried it I thought I can't wear this outside or to work people will think I'm not wearing deodorant lol but after repeated wears at home and asking do I smell like I need a shower and being told that I actually smell nice I wore it to work and was complimented so I can say that cumin and oud have been my thing lately in middle eastern fragrances but I'm also 57 so for the younger guys give it a chance you might be pleasantly surprised
Yeah, I had a similar journey with cumin. At first sniff I freaked out, thought no way I could wear this in public - but then after awhile I really came around.
@@James7995 I am lucky that I never got the egg smell from the Bvlgari Aqva line it's wild how everyone has a different sense of smell lol I don't like the smell of beef liver being cooked but I'll eat it all up afterwards
Great Video! Love cardamom in food and coffee, and in some fragrances it does magic. My absolute favorite cardamom perfume is Guerlain's L'homme Ideal Intense. Very tastefully blended. Declaration EDP is another, I agree it is the best of the series, my next to get designer. Intoxicated seems interesting though I didn't like A men that much. Love African Leather, the best of Memo. But to my nose leather is very pronounced. It is beast mode, but if worn correctly very elegant. Enclave is nice but a bit too minty for me. Have to give it a full wear. Rima XI, Gris Charnel & Argentium seems interesting.
Memo's African Leather is a masterpiece. I sampled it but won't buy it cuz it's too DAMN expensive ! Cartier's Declaration EDP is on my next to buy list for sure. Thank you Justine
Have GC Extrait, Enclave, Intoxicated, obviously Layton as well. This video definitely missing Xerjoff's Starlight for the more advanced person, and Atelier des Ors' Lune Feline between beginner & intermediate (leaning beginner). Roja's Fetish had a lot of cardamom as well if I remember correctly? Don't have a bottle, but sampled it ages ago.
I pulled the trigger on African Leather a couple of months ago. Decanted some for travel a few weeks ago and every time I have come back home from out of town the past few weeks... My bedroom smells like African Leather that's not a bad thing, very manly but yeah this is other level strong lol
WEELLLPPP at first I was like definately on board for cardamom, looking for some recommendations on what to sample going forward...then as I saw the selections I was like well darn I have a sample of African leather and my signature sent is definately Enclave. But as always l enjoyed the video. Love the vids keep em going .
I love fragrances but my nose is untrained so I'm not good at detecting notes even like the one mentioned in the video. I mostly know what smells good to me and what doesn't
…. find someplace where oils are sold and go there as frequently as possible and smell the individual oils. In grocery stores smell spices. Springs on the way. Smell flowers when ever you can. This will help you. It helped me
Declaration is amazing but isnt for me. Maybe after a little more life experience. La Nuit De L'homme is amazing. I own it along with Bleu Électrique. Although Bleu Électrique lasts longer and projects, it projects too much Blue and not enough Cardamom if that makes sense.
I have DesirToxic for intruiged and African Leather for enthusiast but dont have one for starting. Im leaning towards getting Winter but Rima is also interesting. What to do. Haha Great series JC. Btw, already got my hands on ganymede extrait thats why im just commenting now 😅
@@stayfreshproductions to my nose its my example of a perfect flanker. DNA is retained with some facet like the immortelle becoming more prominent while the mandarin is almost nonexistent to my nose. Both are lovely but right now im choosing EDP over XDP
I think people are confusing Amouage Search with Amouage Enclave. Search has a fantastic citrus smell, but then you are hit with that ash smell which I think is the Hojari Frankincense. Enclave has no ash, but you get the mint through the full wear (at least on my skin).
I love Intoxicated but don't think it projects well at all (great longevity though). For me it winds up being an expensive skin scent. I'd love to find another warm/fresh spicy niche coffee fragrance if anyone has a recommendation for when my bottle runs out.
Fragrances that are effectively expensive skin scents are hard for me to justify financially regardless of how much I like the fragrance. I value sillage and longevity just as much.
I friggin’ hate cardamom, that being said… wife gifted me la nuit de l'homme and even though it is not my favorite; it’s my compliment beast. Never fails.
This is funny. I wore Layton today. After my shower, La Nuit de L'homme will be sprayed on. Tomorrow, I'm wearing Sauvage Elixir. Knocking out all three honorable mention 🙂
Honestly, if I see cardamom in a fragrance then I’m more likely to take that fragrance for a test drive. Well done.
Me too 👍🏾
Same.
I’ve been obsessed with xerjoff starlight lately. Sucks that the weather is warming up because I want to keep wearing it 😢 but that’s definitely a great cardamom fragrance, best I’ve smelled so far
I’ve grown to love that fragrance such a masterpiece! Best cardamom I’ve ever experienced 💯
Cardamon is my favorite note. Btw, Memo’s Iberian Leather has a similar use of cardamon, however it’s more polarizing then African leather. In the designer realm I love Tom Ford’s cardamon in the Noir Extremes and Ombre leather EDP. JPG’s LMLP also has a great cardamon note upfront.
Noir Extreme is sexyAF
iberian leather is my favorite fragrance i’ve encountered. i was told it’s discontinued so if you enjoy it, might want to grab a bottle soon. i find the price of memo to be ridiculous but i feel like iberian leather is an exception because it’s so strong with only 1 spray and lasts 12+ hrs on skin for me. lasts months on clothes.
i got lucky and found a bottle for 170$
Cardamom (called Elaichi in India) is a widely and commonly used spice in tea, biryani, pulav and sweets (especially the ones made as an offering to our deities called prasad). It adds a sophisticated layer of taste to the dish and it's also a great antioxidant. Love Sauvage Elixir as it captures the exact essence of cardamom
ahh yes the infamous door sausage
Love Enclave. Stunning, well done.
Another cardamom fragrance I really enjoy is Soul Batik by Moresque. Has that warm spice that is inviting someone to get closer to you rather than announcing to the whole room you are there.
3 of my favourite cardamom fragrances featured here are: African Leather, La Nuit De L'Homme Bleu Electrique, and Layton
But my sexiest cardamom fragrance is Le Male Le Parfum, wow this one gets me compliments every time I wear this, literally every time from complete strangers. Its amazing
💯 👍 Le Mâle le Parfum is amazing best JPG in my opinion
Try DesirToxic 🤩
I’ve been waiting for this exact video topic for years. Thank you JC for being different than every other channel. Most of these I haven’t tried yet. I’m intrigued to get my nose on them.
I really enjoyed the description of what and where cardamom comes from. Hopefully you will do more notes like patchouli, maybe vetiver, labdanum etc. I find these types of videos are not only educational but inspiring as well. Thanks again and peace ✌🏻
Thanks Aaron!

La Nuit De L’Homme has got to be one of the best cardamom forward scents
Blue electric too
And Lune feline
Elixir on my skin is very reminiscent of the vintage batch, especially in the opening as far as cardamom goes.
Starlight has a superior cardamom, of course for the price but in 2011 I was a lover of La Nuit. Women loved it,
Love how Justin is a historian and teacher, student of the fragrance. I need to pull out my La Nuits. I've left designer for niche so that stuff is water to me now.

Cardamom fragrances I’ve been enjoying lately are Xerjoff Starlight which is unisex to me and the original Gris Charnel which leans more feminine 😉
I need to try Starlight!
Awesome video Justin! Loved your recommendations, keep up the awesome work, can’t wait to sample some of these fragrances!
Azzaro The Most Wanted Intense is an awesome Cardamom type fragrance. You should checkout that.
African Leather, oh how I love thee!!! I shied away from it for too long, thinking it was going to be leather heavy. Thankfully, I was sent a free sample, IMMEDIATELY bought a full bottle the moment I smelled it.
So FN good!
Appreciate you, good sir 🙏, how you break it down, as well as how you present tiered options ...
nicely done 👏!
Thank you!
Dude your voice is so soothing!

Tried a decant of Enclave… I was hooked. Had to buy a full bottle 👍🏽

Ive been obssessed with combos like amber vanilla and rose oud and cardamon they are crazy good

Hi Justin. Your videos are so unique and thought-provoking. Really enjoyed this one. Oh and Intoxicated...I own that one...🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! Intoxicated is so good.

You inspired me to order a decant of the Micallef scent.
I hope you enjoy it!
Another excellent video. Appreciate the depth you bring to the topic of fragrances.
Thank you Dave!
I really like cardamom. Looking for more fragrances with them so this a great video for me lol 🙏🏽💪🏽
I really enjoyed this video. Great work, JC. You have nudged me ever closer to BDK Gris Charnel Extrait. It might be just what I'm looking for. I'm gonna get my nose on this one. -- CJ --
That's why i love my Xerjoff Dolce Amalfi so much i guess🙂
Cardamom💛
😊
Agree on African leather. Its my number 1 in my collection
Excelent video again in this series Justin! Love your choices and this note.
Thank you Berend

My favorite cardamom designer fragrance is definitely Hermes Voyage Parfum 👌🏿. Another one I enjoyed is Herrera confidential Aqua vetiver paradise.
Good beginner cardamom frag- Ted Lapidus Pokerface! It’s awesome. Try it.

It’s definitely expensive-it might be worth saving for! Good luck!
All the best,
Justin
Informative and insightful. thanks for the brilliant execution in communication
Love the series. What an excellent innovative approach, away from top 10/20/50 this or that.
Thank you Sean
EQ said he's gonna wash you.
What say you?
Looking forward to it. Nice cardamon choices. Nice vid 🔥
We're gonna have a good time.
Thanks for watching.
The purest Cardamom smell is Zegna Madras Cardamom. It is with citrus and ambroxan. But the smell is literally like when you open a Cardamom pod
Lune feline by Atelier des Ors ist a wonderful unisex cardamom bomb!
I'd say original EDP leans slightly feminine and the extrait leans slightly masculine if we were trying to classify it.
Have GC Extrait, Enclave, Intoxicated, obviously Layton as well. This video definitely missing Xerjoff's Starlight for the more advanced person, and Atelier des Ors' Lune Feline between beginner & intermediate (leaning beginner). Roja's Fetish had a lot of cardamom as well if I remember correctly? Don't have a bottle, but sampled it ages ago.
Saw the thumbnail, expected cardamom. I guess I'll have to check out African Leather sometime.
Voyage d'Hermes Parfum one of my favorite cardamoms
Underrated cardamon bomb.
Nice video! I love your recommendations. I still love Chanel the most lol! Take care!
African leather is my favorite by far, it really a master peace every man should have one
Great video Justin! Have you tried Xerjoff Starlight? To me, it’s got a good amount of cardamom to make this list. Definitely recommend.
Haven't tried it but everyone is bringing it up!
gonna try Enclave, love me some mint
I pulled the trigger on African Leather a couple of months ago. Decanted some for travel a few weeks ago and every time I have come back home from out of town the past few weeks... My bedroom smells like African Leather that's not a bad thing, very manly but yeah this is other level strong lol
Very strong!
I tried African Leather and i was amazed and i bought it becauss it was so damn good also lasted 16 hours kn my skin
Bruh got the guns out on the thumbnail. I’m going to wear a long sleeve shirt today 😩😩😩. Great video 😁
Haha! Thanks
The Best, the Best, the Best, seriously the Best cardamomo perfume in this world, it's ORMONDE MAN by Ormonde Jayne, I highly recommend to you❗
WEELLLPPP at first I was like definately on board for cardamom, looking for some recommendations on what to sample going forward...then as I saw the selections I was like well darn I have a sample of African leather and my signature sent is definately Enclave. But as always l enjoyed the video. Love the vids keep em going .
Excellent video! Definitely a note that is addicting.
It really is! Thanks Ryan!
Jaipur line specifically the edp, perfumed by annick menardo must be mentioned here
Xerjoff Starlight is my favorite cardamom fragrance. If you like cardamom blended with cinnamon, you should get your nose on it.
Niiiice video my man. Thanks a bunch. Fasho. 👍🏾 👌
I love fragrances but my nose is untrained so I'm not good at detecting notes even like the one mentioned in the video. I mostly know what smells good to me and what doesn't
Just take notes of what notes your favorite perfumes have so far and find a pattern
…. find someplace where oils are sold and go there as frequently as possible and smell the individual oils. In grocery stores smell spices. Springs on the way. Smell flowers when ever you can. This will help you. It helped me
I agree with African Leather
Declaration is amazing but isnt for me. Maybe after a little more life experience. La Nuit De L'homme is amazing. I own it along with Bleu Électrique. Although Bleu Électrique lasts longer and projects, it projects too much Blue and not enough Cardamom if that makes sense.

Edgardo! How do you like the Extrait?
@@stayfreshproductions to my nose its my example of a perfect flanker. DNA is retained with some facet like the immortelle becoming more prominent while the mandarin is almost nonexistent to my nose. Both are lovely but right now im choosing EDP over XDP

This is the approach to take you to the top!!!

I fully agree that cardamom is so sexy. And DesirToxic was love at first sniff.
Even though I can’t afford the fragrances you mention I like that you don’t just ride the cheapie hype train like so many other reviewers
I have Larc Digo the Havane. I'm shocked nobody mentions this brand. mine is a great version of Layton. not clone. just does it in its own way
I love Intoxicated but don't think it projects well at all (great longevity though). For me it winds up being an expensive skin scent. I'd love to find another warm/fresh spicy niche coffee fragrance if anyone has a recommendation for when my bottle runs out.

Too many of my favorite fragrances use Cardamom I'm actually going to try to get some fragrances without Cardamom.
Intoxicated is great
Top shelf content.
Thank you
I love this fragrances, but never will purchase a full bottle. The performance isn't better than Profumum Roma.
Off topic but how have you been enjoying raghba wood intense? :)
I'm enjoying it! I've only worn it once so far.
Dang bro looks jacked 💪🏼
Try making videos for some affordable ones
Can you do the one with musk also?? Thank you 🙏
Which category would you put a blind buy enthusiast like myself?
