I love BDK, and personally, I find their pricing to be very competitive, especially on discounters. I have a fondness for modern aromachemicals and sweet fragrances, though. Still enjoy your videos lol.
I challenge you to do a review of a recent fragrance (last 3 years) that you were flabbergasted by, that is affordable $50-$200. Cannot be discontinued.
If you haven't tried them yet, see if you can get a sample of Perito Moreno Culture from Noah. It's my new reference tuberose. Absolutely gorgeous stuff.
I got this in a box of samples a while back and it's the only one out of the bunch I only tried once. That opening was like someone smashed a cupcake in a cheap handbag. I tried one of their others, 312 Saint Honore, and it was a pretty decent floral musk. It's a simple iris and white musk scent that is , again, very modern, but nowhere near as sweet and relatively sheer. I admit, though, I'm a sucker for certain white musks and the ones it that one come in nice waves.
Haha how did I just know what you were going to say here! 😂 it’s funny it just shows how taste develops as time goes on- I had one of their fragrances a couple of years ago and got rid of it quite quickly due to those aroma chemicals - it’s something that runs through the brand and it’s a shame that kind of thing is so prevalent now among modern perfumes. Thanks Ram
Thank you for this. I tried this soon after it came out in Italy. I was like vanilla where? Leather where?? This is a tuberose bomb on my skin, which is a note that I don't get along very well... So sadly it is a pass for me. Creme Cuir though, it is gorgeous!
Although i dont like some of their fragrances, some i feel are really good. Tabac rose and citrus riviera really stand out for me, but tabac rose is a plum chocolate scent, more than tobacco and rose.
Hey ram you might like Vici Leather from Electimuss. Idk your thoughts on the brand but some of their releases by Julien Rasquinet like Vici Leather and Gladiator Oud are actually very good to my nose. Not at the level of artisanal brands but good nonetheless.
I have tried 3 fragrances from BDK so far : Gris Charnel extrait, Velvet Tonka, 312 rue St Honoré. I just do not get the hype this brand is getting. I own and I love Gris Charnel extrait which I bought 2 years ago when i had not yet discovered vintage fragrances. It is rather simplistic and comforting. Velvet Tonka is foul and an Amber wood mess. 312 rue St Honoré is just pure Ambroxan in the drydown. I am not surprised that BDK is not your cup of tea.
I've got the chance to try some of their fragrances and all of them were a letdown, very synthetic, cheap and designer smelling, their huge pricetag is also a deciding factor. For me BDK sits in the same ballpark as Parfums de marley, designer quality fragrances at niche price. What i would like to point out is that some designers even smell 10times better quality than BDK'S... examples like: Eau Sauvage , Givenchy Gentleman, Antaeus, Kouros, Cartier declaration parfum etc.
There is nothing more frustrating than when a house puts a name of an ingredient in the name of the perfume and it's non-existent. I own two BDK fragrances, one i cant stand the other is okay but both of them are so far removed from the actual name of the fragrance. Seems to be a motif with the house.
Cheers Rams , I was excited to try Gris Charnel about 2 years ago when I popped into a niche Perfume boutique, and I was really disappointed for sure , I wanna say I immediately u- turned from BDK and sniffed other houses which had so much more to offer. Yeah it’s a mine field now in the niche market place , big named perfumers forced to create offerings from briefs which cater for Perfume wearing sheep flocking together in social groups and predictable hangouts , enough said it’s just all based on fads, what’s hot and what’s not , Perfume now is really a fashion statement a catwalk if you will , it’s becoming difficult to discover the art from the AI type generated houses today without getting frustrated, Monsieur Rochas is a terrific little fragrance on a lighter less ranty note lol 😂.have a wonderful Sunday buddy 💪🤛😂
😂😂😂 I really enjoyed wearing Monsieur Rochas I must admit...even though at times I felt to young to wear it yesterday it kept me interested in a way No BDK ever can lol
It's never good weather
to wear Vanilla Leather.
😂
😂😂😂
My man be rhymin' 😂
BuT iTs GoNnA gEt Me 😸
The only one I like from BDK is Gris Charnel Extrait.
I have a sample some where I have to find it

Smashing a cupcake in a handbag is a perfect analogy for this 😂

Yes whatever that modern aroma chemical thing is I hate it!
@ it’s awful 😢
I hope you're doing well my brother.
Hanging in there!

I will review more from the brand... thanks for watching & commenting 🙂

If more fall in my lap will talk about them... I just don't know if I would search them out if you know what I mean
I’ve only tried Tabac Rose. Which I didn’t care for.
Sounds like one of those houses where that will happen a lot for me lol

I have never smelled that brand tbh
Maybe one day

Just the epitome of modern blahhhh lol

Interesting.. what are those 2 frags?
I have BDK Tubereuse Imperiale haven’t tried any others Tfs
Thanks for watching 👀
I liked Rouge Smoking but didn't care for Gris Charnel or the extrait. Haven't tried anything else
I think I have a sample of gris charnel extrait and it has that same modern synthetic vibe I hate
I was waiting for Gris Charnel😢
😂😂😂
One day but i don't know if it will be much better lol
@RamseytheRam I am very curious because everyone is raving about it
Not a BDK fan, I don’t like their fragrances, none of them. It’s that example of mass appealing, done bad, synthetic, not a fan at all. Cheers!
I am not a fan either!
I do not understand how these brands get so much hype... they are so shit
😂😂😂
It's the modern paradox... everything shit is hyped... good is bad... evil is glorified etc...
