My absolute favorite style of fragrances, got three from the list, more fragrances to test and definitely buy Amouage Silver Oud. Thank you Sebastian!!!
I prefer Amouage Interlude Black Iris, I bought it for my boyfriend. But man all the blue beasts are all so amazing. I appreciate that they made it in this video!!!!!
Interlude 53 is like a old fine cognac. It’s has weight and body and consistency of taste. It doesn’t change or goes into different stage. It’s constant from start to finish.
I just bought Beaufort London 1805 Tonnerre and that is a beast of a smoke bomb. Bitter lime, smoke, and aquatic notes. How can you go wrong? It's such a beautiful fragrance. I also own many more from the house and I can attest that they are all so amazingly well done. I'm surprised not many people know about them
@@oni1jz Which one is the most suitable for women in your opinion (i don't mean the most floral/aromatic but the least male)? Do they have anything woody/forest like too? I'm looking for a long lasting "nature scent". Smokey/woody/leather/moss/autumn/... That stuff. Just nothing aquatic. I'll sample them but curious to know which ones you have and whether you can recommend anything that matches the above 🙂
Great list! Thank you! 😁 I would also like to watch a list of deep and dark forest scents! Can't recall if you've done one of those already?... But looking for fragrances that smell like a dark forest, green, piney and fresh! Like you're walking through a forest, taking in the smell of the trees, grass and earth... 🤩 That'd be something! 😆
Sebastian suggest a Beaufort London House review. They will rewrite your Smokey Dark Mysterious list rankings. Can't wait to get your thoughts on them. All the best.
yes! Jasmine lover here 🙋🏻♀️ My fave so far is Serge Lutens A la Nuit, it is a narcotic indolic jasmine bomb. Im currently going through a mimosa kick 🤪
Thank you for an excellent video! Finally a video showcasing fragrances that I don't already have! I'm not buying winter scents yet this year... but will be soon... And T-Rex will be the first! 👍❤😊
You should do a popular designer scents alternatives video! take the popular designer scents list you made a couple days ago and than some artsier or more niche fragrances that newbs like me should check out if we like a certain fragrance. often I have no way to try these colognes unless blindbuying, spending a fortune on samples or going somewhere like a nordstorms to try designers and comparing the notes
"Mysterious" can be strangely sweet yet somehow deep and "serious", too. At least, that's my newbie-amateur experience from my meager collection (about 20 fragrances). Fitting that profile to me are YSL Homme de la Nuit and Mauboussin M Generation. I am happy to report, too, that I concur with you on Geoffrey Beene's Grey Flannel. (I finally got to Texas to pick up all these things I'd ordered.) I know immediately why Grey Flannel is such a love-or-hate scent. But I like it. Yes, one might say it first hits you with a "garbage dumpster in the summer" stink...if that's how your olfactory equipment interprets it. But then, fine wines are sometimes compared to cat pee, too, so there you go. But I have given it a fair shot at proving itself to me, and it does. It settles down to something incredibly dignified and cozy, like the library of an old English manor, with dried flowers in the vases. It makes you...a safe, inviting, mature "place" for others. But not in summer. Definitely not in summer.
Nice vid Sebastian, love these thematic videos. Zoologist T-Rex is one of the most challenging frags to wear. It also changes with the climate, when it's hot it's more leathery and in cold it's more fresh spicy. Barbeque is a good way to describe this, to my nose it's mostly about the spices, the scent reminds me of Tiger Balsam or Vicks Vaporub. I have gotten compliments when wearing this but at the same time would not be surprised if it is repulsive to some people. Compared to T-Rex, something like Laudano Nero is easy frag. Also have gotten a lot of compliments for that one, actually good charismatic date frag LOL. Go figure 😀
Interesting list, must smell most of these. I'd add Bentley for Men Absolute. Also Proraso's Wood & Spice Cologne, which is quite similar to Black Afgano
Amouage Opus vii from library collection is also a dark offering from the house. I would say Chambre noir is also dark enough but not smokey. Loved the list of fragrances and learnt some new ones. Thanks for this list "The Perfume guy"
By the way, and sorry if this isn't on topic, but thinking about your earlier videos on layering. I'm experimenting with two obsessively linear fragrances, to see whether they can add welcome nuance to each other. They are Karl Lagerfeld's Bois d'Ambre, which is all amber and nothing but, and Eau Sauvage EDT, which is a 45-minute total lemon bomb after which it is nothing but the reminiscence of lemons (disappointing both for its monotonous simplicity and awful weakness; I hope to try the stronger version, however). And so, I am seeing what happens when a shot of Eau Sauvage is added over the Bois d'Ambre. Jury's still out but the early returns are promising. The Bois d'Ambre underneath seems to strengthen Eau Sauvage's weak knees, and the Eau Sauvage on top seems to force some subtlety on the Bois d'Ambre, so it's not amber-in-your-FACE. Instead of just amber or just lemon staring you smack in the face, there is actually a chemistry going on there.
I have never tried a smoky fragrance but I want to now. I think the smokiest fragrance I have is Tea for Two - well it has a smoky smell to me. I am going to explore some more incense smoky fragrances though. Thank you for the recommendations.
You are almost single-handedly populating my list of perfumes I am making to sniff at Scent Bar. Please Sebastian- think of my wallet! Have mercy on me.
HYDE by Hiram Green is the all natural amazing perfume. Dark and Mysterious and IMO tops several on this list that I have smelled. Also FUMIDUS from Profumum Roma … if you dare to wear
Ahhh sir you changed your name! Loving it. You can also try "Mr. Fragrance" like Mr. Porter. I think it suits your classy style and love for niche stuffs.
I just thought of the best job in the world (aside from being a mattress reviewer for product testing market research companies): naming fragrances. Wouldn't that be just so much fun? To be in a small team analysing fragrances and eventually coming up with the best names. 😂
Wow! You look finer without the cap. Why cover your beauty? I'm already imagining how you'll look in a suit and tie; could easily pass for a Hollywood star. You're a handsome man, Sebastian. Pls go more without the cap. Meanwhile, have you smelled Incense Oud by Nicolai Perfumier Creatuer? It's mind blowing. I also have Laudano Nero, Hindu Kush, Red Tobacco, Black Afgano, Naxos, and Tobacco Vanille. I love them all but I put Incense Oud and Red Tobacco on top, especially Incense Oud. You've got to check it out.
Fire list.. powerful scents for winter 👌🏼 If anyone likes Bois Sikar, but think it's a bit too much, try Bois d'ascese by Naomi Goodsir. Easier wear. Moon Dust & Dahab by MiN New York, Private Label by Jovoy, and Typewriter by Parfumerie Particuliere.. very dark and smoky scents as well.
@@ThePerfumeGuy sounds about right, I think Midnight Stroll might be great for layering with other incensey, sweeter resinous fragrances. Thanks a lot.
Do you have a Cannabis-Fragrance list; it don't have to be direct in your Face Cannabis note like it is used in the Fragrance Du Bois perfumes. I mean for instance, Chanel's "Sycomore" or Lalique's "Encre Noir a L 'Extreme" reminds me of Cannabis..I don't no why :-) Thanks a lot...

A City On Fire smells just like Feu De Bois candle from Diptyque. Gorgeous.
Very handsome without cap 🤷🏻♂️👍🏼
Gave my son a big hug this morning and he smelled smoky and wonderful...he was wearing Kalemat Black by Arabian Oud.
please do list of best metallic fragrances, no one has ever done this kind of list on youtube yet !!!
I've never heard him speak positively about metallic fragrances
My absolute favorite style of fragrances, got three from the list, more fragrances to test and definitely buy Amouage Silver Oud. Thank you Sebastian!!!
Ooh cool!! Thanks for stopping by!! 😀
New name, no hat❣️ Awesome 🤩
TRex is very interesting. I can never really discern what I'm smelling, and it's extremely long lasting!
I prefer Amouage Interlude Black Iris, I bought it for my boyfriend. But man all the blue beasts are all so amazing. I appreciate that they made it in this video!!!!!
Interlude 53 is like a old fine cognac. It’s has weight and body and consistency of taste. It doesn’t change or goes into different stage. It’s constant from start to finish.
trex is the most terrifying thing I own. My girlfriend gets very nervous when she sees me with the bottle. she is NOT a fan. I love it.
One of the best frags to go read reviews is TRex. This scent, for good or ill, brings out the literary master in people. 😉
I just purchased a smokey fragrance: Beaufort London Rake & Rain. This is potent and very smokey, have you had your nose on this?
Very surprised that Sebastian didn't include any from the Beaufort London House. They are incredible fragrances.

This video gets the Gothic seal of aproval :) Very inspiring
I love this genre so much 🌹

Encre noir, oud wood ,
Great idea. Thanks for the "dark" survey.
Naomi Goodsir Bois d’ Ascese is my darkest/smokiest fragrance! 🔥
I need a bottle!!

Definitely taking notes!
Great list and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day
I'm taking notes. My favourite dark smokey scents are War & Peace 2 by Areej Le Dore and Black Knight by Francesca Bianchi.🔥💥
Just received Aaron Terrence Hughes x Frag-Mental - Smoulder and wearing it right now. Smokey for sure.
Need to try. Have his animalx and homme.
Literally perfect timing was looking for a dark scent list
Currently working through an indolic jasmine kick
OOH INDOLIC! Yes! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy would be awesome if you did a top jasmine list
yes! Jasmine lover here 🙋🏻♀️ My fave so far is Serge Lutens A la Nuit, it is a narcotic indolic jasmine bomb. Im currently going through a mimosa kick 🤪
@@unboxingluxury1018 recently tried lust by lush, jasmine narcotique by ATH, and jasmine antique by rougue
Sebastian, can we all take a moment to appreciate your hair cut 💇♂️
I need to try all of these!
Thank you for an excellent video!
Finally a video showcasing fragrances that I don't already have!
I'm not buying winter scents yet this year... but will be soon... And T-Rex will be the first! 👍❤😊
Aur Tiger, Irrévérent and Bentley for Man Absolute would fit into this category too 🙂

If T-Rex is challenging to you I wonder what you'd make of something like Amouage Figment Man....
@@bshannon67 Don't know as I have not tried it
Great Choice ! also you look really professional without the base ball cap .
Interesting list, must smell most of these. I'd add Bentley for Men Absolute. Also Proraso's Wood & Spice Cologne, which is quite similar to Black Afgano
Dope video brother.I'm looking for that Panah fragrance right now.
Amouage Opus vii from library collection is also a dark offering from the house. I would say Chambre noir is also dark enough but not smokey. Loved the list of fragrances and learnt some new ones. Thanks for this list "The Perfume guy"
Dark, smoky, Mysterious. I like that combo but haven't sampled any of these fragrance but must try.
Great video! I would love if you did the same but with designer only fragrances!
I just ordered Etat Libre D`Orange Rien Intense Incense, blind buy, hope i like it!

Ombre nomade, oud for Greatness,The moon💫 nuit de Feu are my favorites ✨🎇✨
Love your videos! Personally, it would be great if the prices are included. Hopeful 🙏. Thank you
The charcoal is what gives barbecue its unique scent.
Sebastian-have you got your nose on Arquiste Dark Galleon? Thinking it may fit in here but need some insights.
Thanks for all that you do!
Great vid. 1 of my favorite “scent categories” I would add Or Encens. Peace
I have never tried a smoky fragrance but I want to now. I think the smokiest fragrance I have is Tea for Two - well it has a smoky smell to me. I am going to explore some more incense smoky fragrances though. Thank you for the recommendations.
Yes T42 has smokiness but it’s very sweet to me and immediately the sweetness kills the darkness if that makes sense? 😀
You are almost single-handedly populating my list of perfumes I am making to sniff at Scent Bar. Please Sebastian- think of my wallet! Have mercy on me.
I'm very curious about Spell 125 and the new Amouage. Will have to sample them. I need to find samples.
Me too.
Great list, I like Arko Awake
Xerjoff Luxor is very charismatic
You're on fire lately, great hair and great new channel name.
Luxor only I have from this list, xerjoff is one of my favourite houses.
obsessed with dark notes...
HYDE by Hiram Green is the all natural amazing perfume. Dark and Mysterious and IMO tops several on this list that I have smelled. Also FUMIDUS from Profumum Roma … if you dare to wear
I hate how no one ever talks about Comme Des Garcons Black EDT. Such an amazing dark fragrance
It's been spoken about in this video: ua-cam.com/video/SYK5K9Ma2PA/v-deo.html and soon in another video.
@@ThePerfumeGuythank you sir
@@ThePerfumeGuy more videos about incensy fragrances? I'll be waiting impatiently :)
I think BLACKBIRD and Rook Perfumes also fit into this list!
I love ur new youtube chanel name the perfume guy u r rock Sebastian
Silver oud
Interlude 53
Ébène fumé
Arabian wood
Very dark
Ahhh sir you changed your name! Loving it. You can also try "Mr. Fragrance" like Mr. Porter. I think it suits your classy style and love for niche stuffs.
I will explain the name change in an upcoming video soon on the channel!!
@@ThePerfumeGuy can't wait!!
Yes, I love "mysterious".
Great video!
I just thought of the best job in the world (aside from being a mattress reviewer for product testing market research companies): naming fragrances. Wouldn't that be just so much fun? To be in a small team analysing fragrances and eventually coming up with the best names. 😂
Thank you for this video! If you love T-Rex by Zoologist, you should try LITA by Bogue. It's the samer perfumer and even darker.
I have tried LiTA it's quite good but I find T-Rex darker as I find the gardenia note to brighten that fragrance.
Whats up with the name change??
Great list, great hair, thanks.
I say LABdanum, but labDAnum sounds nice too! Thanks for another great review.
Great video
Wow! You look finer without the cap. Why cover your beauty? I'm already imagining how you'll look in a suit and tie; could easily pass for a Hollywood star. You're a handsome man, Sebastian.

Loved your videos. But most of the fragrance you have mentioned is not available in india. Thanks again!
How are you today ? Are these fragrances stronger than Varvatos Dark Rebel ? Thanks Dave at 55.
The new Amouage Crimson Rocks smells very dark and smokey on me . It’s also a new Fragrance so it’s worth checking it Out ! 🖤
Oh yes I have sampled it it’s brightened up by Rose I believe but I’ll check again!! 😀
@@ThePerfumeGuy yes you are correct it has rose i have 2 samples not really my thing
I loved this video 🖤
prada moonlight shadow (olfactories mirages) is also very smoky, dark & mysterious :-))
yes i do!! i defo prefer nuit de feu to ombre nomade
Serge Lutens Baptême du Feu should be on this list! Do you have any experience with this masterpiece?
I don’t own it! 🥲
Burning Barbershop, Patchouli 24
Would you recommend A Midnight Stroll over The Voice of the Snake? They both seem dark and mysterious
Encre noir exteme by Lalique - absolute synonym of darkness like living in a dark cave
Fire list.. powerful scents for winter 👌🏼
If anyone likes Bois Sikar, but think it's a bit too much, try Bois d'ascese by Naomi Goodsir. Easier wear.
Moon Dust & Dahab by MiN New York, Private Label by Jovoy, and Typewriter by Parfumerie Particuliere.. very dark and smoky scents as well.
Thanks for sharing!!
Laudano Nero means black laudanum (opium tincture)
Bois d'Ascese Naomi Goodsir 🔥💥
I need to get a bottle for sure!! :)
Hey man thanks for putting this out. How would you say Gucci Midnight Stroll compares to YSL Caftan? Are they somewhat alike?
To me Caftan is sweeter and the one I prefer. I have heard Caftan is discontinued though. 🥲
@@ThePerfumeGuy sounds about right, I think Midnight Stroll might be great for layering with other incensey, sweeter resinous fragrances. Thanks a lot.
I have a decant of the Louis Vuitton and it's a bit rough for me. I'm a bit shy to try any others from this list?
You MUST try Encens Suave by Matiere Premiere… it’s to die for IMO.
I have in the past but will try again! :)
Nohat new name. Good for you
Sebastien don't laugh but what do you think of the cheapie Azzaro Visit? Often overlooked. These often resonate with a churchy Catholic unconscious.
I need to test it it’s been so long. Azzaro had great fragrances in the past!! 😀
👋 yes this is my jam
Essence No. 4 Oud Elie Saab
Hi, did u tried “La Yuqawam pour Homme” from Rasasi? What do you think about it?!?
You look different without the cap???🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩
You have nice hair! I assumed you were bald as you’ve always worn a hat. Looking good!
Very interesting
Can you please review Kayali perfumes ?

Great setup:) 👍
Also in the end interlude 53 nice 👍 ❤🙂
Dracula's perfumes?
I like that!
And Robert Piguet Casbah, is it also dark, smoky and mysterious?
I can see it yes!!
