Enjoyed this video. Three of these are in my office/work rotation as well. I'll have to investigate the other three. I will add three more that I enjoy wearing to work: Eight & Bob's original (woody/spicy touch of amber), Green Irish Tweed (lemon verbena/violet leaf/sandalwood), and Rogue's Bon Monsieur a really wonderful impression of a classic fougere.
Kiitos, mies 🙂 Thanks for not just spitting out latest releases, it is obvious these are your personal interest. Yeah, when choosing to the office - it is better to be discovered than announced. Have you had the pleasure to experience the 'predecessor' to Egoiste, Bois noir? Maan, loved that one, like Egoiste but with a dash of lavender - too bad no longer available 😔. To add to your excellent choices - my favourite Chanels to work, are Platinum egoiste and Pour monsieur edp. My favorite to the office that has that heady kind of citrus, are Guerlain Habit rouge edt and Nicolai New york intense. And if want a splash of vetiver, Hermes Bel ami vetiver comes into rotation quite often. And if I fancy iris - Dior homme(original) and Givenchy Gentleman cologne. There are those days you want something tad unusual...and for me, those days Amouage Jubilation 25 or TF Oud wood shines - and a somewhat reacent discovery that have not seen many talk about and gotten in my frequent rotation is Hugo boss Elegant vetiver and Vigorous cologne...but understand if they dont sell all that well because are often dissapointing on a blotter and when sprayed on skin, takes often more than 30min to settle...resulting that most have already walked out of the store - think someone told that if a perfume changes alot in its drydown, it might have "more" naturals...and they change, I have Confident oud from that line and dont care if it is real oud or not, as in the drydown smells so damn pleasant on me - but on a blotter, would probably overlooked it. Even the Vigorous cologne has a artificial quality to it, but in quite addictive and best way possible. I did not think I find any Hugo boss after Number one in the older batches...the bootled and other lines, there is something in them that dont agree on my skin and also do not fall in my personal taste.
@@I-And-Eye thank you for the kind words! Yes personally for me perfume is very personal and I want my ”wardrobe” look like that and feel like ”me” so I consider it quite well curated to my personal preferences and it’s great to see there are people who appreciates that so thank you! 😊 I haven’t tried Bois Noir unfortunately but I own also a bottle of Egoiste Cologne Concentree from 1992 and that is brilliant too. Bit more leather, the sandalwood is rich and I even get bit animalic quality with that one. The fragrances you mentioned are all great and I actually also have pretty much all of them too so I guess we share a very similar taste. I’m curious to try those Boss releases if I come across to them somewhere
@@tinkeviitanen Aah, the Concentree, have vague memories of - was in my Fahrenheit/Le male/L'eau d'issey-period of life when I smelled it and only in passing. Tho remember I wore Kouros before that period(as a boy, before having my own money -you took what your dad had on the shelf 😋). Got curious to check out the Savoy steam, have Sartorial that has a bit of that "steam-ironed shirt"-smell with honey&wax-like sweetness as you know - worth having both, do you think? Have Endymion cologne to order, possibly this weekend. New york intense was a pleasant suprise how much I liked it, tho in in the same vein that other but done very well and bit more modern. The Boss-ones are in their "prive"-line and priced thereafter. I smelled most of them and all but the Confident oud, are a bit unusual and many are playful - not smelling as many others but very wearable. Too bad that only 2 shops have them here in Sweden, both located in Stockholm. And not alot of reviews either - found only one YT-video mentioning Confident oud in a list and quite obvious many of the written opinion-snippets on sites, has sprayed them on a blotter and discarded it...and understand them - and think why they are hard to sell if browsing a store and being around double the price of their other line. The saleswoman when bought one of them, told that her husband discarded like many, the Confident oud on the blotter but she knew better and sprayed their son with it...and when the husband identified who smelled so good at home, he changed his mind and if one of his favourites 😁
Great choices. I dont work in an office but if i did I would wear Grey Vetiver edp, Terre D Hermes edt, Dior Eau Sauvage edt, Oud Wood edp, Hermes Eau de Citron Noir , Fougere D Argent by Tom Ford. Subscribed of course and good luck to your channel.
@@steliosc.4686 Much appreciated thank you! Love your choices and Fougere D’Argent is great to see in there as it still for some reason goes bit ”under the radar” when it comes to Tom Ford yet to me it’s one of the best ones from the house.
@@Readyteddygo Rien is great and I have no doubts people will enjoy it! There really is no such thing as ”office fragrances”. Except the one from Jeremy 😀
@@TheScentientMan Thanks a lot Raj and I appreciate that! As you know I’ve been a big fan of your videos and channel for some years now and it’s great to see you uploading again.
@@laconan I’ve only had a decant of it but it really is very good! Quite unique as sometimes I felt I couldn’t smell much and the next moment comes and the scent bubble was very noticeable
Yes it does behave that way... Good for you for going to office more... So often we take better care of ourselves when we know that we have to interact with others.
Thanks Timo - I´m the same type of person to care a lot not to offend the other people at business meeting with anything that I wear ... all those choices are unique and upper class - still don´t have Pour Monsieur EDT (although i tried it) ... only have Pour Monsieur EDP but in year or two I´ll buy it definitely :D
@@miles-178 Thanks Milos! And yes it’s definitely good to take other people in to considerarion at the office :) Both edt and edp are great and not redundant in my opinion!
@@gregcarnegy2395 Hehe thanks! Well yes it’s really not something that I also think that perfume can necessarily do but I just like that some perfumes might have that certain ”aura” in them that gives me that type of feeling a bit more than some other ones might give :)
Some interesting choices ... Is there a big market of vintage frags in Finland? Or do you get them from Europe? I'd love to get an older bottle of the pour Monsieur
@@markgallacher4217 Thank you for watching! Actually the market in here is quite ”bad”. I’ve bought my bottles during quite a long period of time and used mostly Ebay and Parfumo and then also just many times been lucky visiting some old marketplaces or pharmacies etc. Pour Monsieur is still very good in my opinion in it’s current form too
Pour Monsieur is wonderful and it SHINES in autumn
@@arcabuz It truly is wonderful and to me no doubt one of the best in that style of perfume
I got randomly recommended and I like the vibes. New sub
@@Lwilight Great to see you here! And thank you.

@@tinkeviitanen yes, I couldn't agree more. A gem.
I wear Rien to the office. I know it’s not supposed to be “office friendly” but I really don’t care and everyone loves it

My signature scent is Another 13 by La Labo ...it's great for the office as well.

Lol I guess you are a smart gentleman from the US? Finland is part of Europe, even though americans have no clue what Europe is
@@janm3531 I meant mainland Europe but thanks for the correction
good god this man is attractive....
