As always LOVE WHEN THESE TWO GET TOGETHER. GREAT REVIEW GUYS! Carlos, I definitely see you becoming the #1 reviewer on UA-cam & please DON'T EVER CHANGE! I love your brutal honesty! You're as far from a sell out as they come....
Man Carlos is always the very first to talk about brand new fragrances.. Carlos is like that die hard news reporter who gets to the scene before everyone else.. im excited to try this.. seems like this one is your favorite out of the line.
seriously man, you are so on top of your game.. between the collabs, giveaways,, always on top of the newest releases... You're really one of the very best in this community.
Can’t wait to smell this one. Valentino is my favorite designer house as a whole. This style of review gives a sense of this hobby as an actual community and not just another review
Gang review! What a concept. I am moved by the excitement you are showing about this release. I have only seen you this excited once before. Top 5, Carlos? Now I have to try this. Thanks, Guys!
I've been waiting to see a review on this. When the UA-cam notification popped up, I hit play this morning and my eyes weren't even fully open. Lol. But I just put the phone down and listened with my eyes closed. Lol. I am so happy you guys are raving about it. I was hoping it was going to be good! Awesome review. Love how all my favorite reviewers came together!
by Kevin Samuels Let us know what you think on it Kevin! Do you think you'll be doing a review on it! I tend to enjoy your taste & what you recommend! Keep me in the loop & lemmenowhassup Big Bro!
Right on my good brother! Me too, but imma still go with your taste just because. You already know! I'm a touring musician! If you ever find your way to LA, Vegas, San Diego, let me know! I'm a sub & I watch your material repeatedly on a regular basis! You're a true Class Act & a real good brotha with a well respected opinion! Preciate you my good man!
I will have blind to blind buy this. Iris in my favorite note. Lipstick smell doesn’t bother me at all. Top five best of 2017 colognes. Wow impressive can’t wait to sniff.
I was super curious to try this beauty, but after this review I WANT THIS! I love Uomo Intense, so I guess this will be a huge winner in my book! Really enjoyed the review in this format! Cheers guys!
Not sure if I can justify more of this kind of DNA in my wardrobe, but I can't wait to test it. Loved hearing all of your feedback too! Much love, guys. =]
Seems to be a great release from Valentino, love how impressed all you guys are with this fragrance. Looks like this is a must buy, would love to sample first though. Thanks again Carlos!
i just got this one. teff is the one who nailed it. this smells close to black orchid. i would say this is a more masculine woody version of black orchid.
Enjoyed the video and the take of multiple reviewers. This sounds like a most have, I love Uomo Intense, so I have to try it out. Thank you for the video.
Enjoyed your review on the first Valentino Carlos and this one just blew it away on the rector scale. Your thoughts on it as well as Steven and the others was interesting. Positive responses all across the board which warrants a sample of this. Thanks for the generous giveaway.
Been debating which Valentino fragrance to purchase and thanks to this video I know which one I gotta get my hands on. Definitely need a sample of it first.
I have just ordered this online. It was very hard to find here in the UK I asked around today in the city but even top sellers didn't have it so I ordered it from a store in London. I will let you know what I think of it when it arrives, as I have not yet tried it. Very excited !!! :-)
Wow guys, some serious positive reactions here. Thank you so much for reviewing! The spice notes sound wonderful. throwing my hat in the ring for this.
Love seeing all you awesome frag heads/Reviewers meeting up!!!!! 😎😎😎😎 yall make this fragcom awesome, im going to see if this juice is in Nordstrums, how versitile is it? Strictly winter fall?
Loved the cutaway to the opinions. I'm a big fan of cinnamon so this sounds incredibly interesting. Carlos, your excitement always makes me want to buy stuff.
Hey guys I am loving the collaboration, most of the big reviewers are so chummy it truly is a community. Keep pumping out videos and count me into the giveaway.
First impression, I get what Tiff Benson gets - Black Orchid! Dior Homme’s line and Valentino Uomo‘s iris based fragrances just aren’t for me. I’ve tried to like them over and over again, but I just can’t get into them. Great review Carlos ! I’m glad you and Steven both enjoy this composition.
excellent review , as always. The combination of you both really shows, excellent duo. I can't say that enough. Really enjoy the duo's gives great combo thoughts in one spot...at the same time from the top reviewers in the community ! thanks !!
Nice review guys. I was going to buy this...and tested it at Nordstrom's and got a sample of it....wearing it, I am not sure if this is for me. It has a heavy feel I am not sure of. I'm not a big fan of Black Orchid either...so maybe that is why.
I love seeing fellow reviewers on your channel. I've been watching al for a while so it's awesome seeing him. I'd love to try this one out. Good luck to everyone (:
I just got this today because of this video. Any time you get that hype I know it's fire. To me this is a 10. I saw a tester for $52 and jumped right on it
Thanks you two! I’m really excited about this one and there isn’t many reviews on Valentino Uomo Noir Absolu as of now. The few reviews out there are great including this one! Thanks for a great review! I appreciate it! Have a good one till next time! 🤗
Hey Carlos and Steven. Thanks for the review. As always you did a great job. I would really appreciate being considered for the giveaway. I'd love to give this one a try.
This sounds like a sure winner! I enjoyed hearing your reviews on this and the opinion of your friends. I also heard notes of cinnamon and chocolate...sounds very intriguing. Thanks for the chance to enter this giveaway. Following you both and sharing this video now.
I remember when I saw the announcement of this release and freaked out in excitement. And then I smelled it at Bloomingdales 2 weeks ago. Omg. I’m kicking myself for not picking it up. I’ll definitely get it to add to my original.
I like how you describe this release as magnificent ! Great to get excited & appreciate a fabulous scent . I am in to win & good luck to all . Thank you gentlemen for another great review!
Well done video. Fantastic review. The thing I liked most about this video is the passion my frag con friends have. I share that passion, too. By the way, I've got to try this fragrance. Cheers.
Absolutely loved the original and this from the sound of it is gonna rock!! Liked shared subscribed to both. Great review and I love the "man on the street" angle and a cameo by Tiff *claps* :-)
I have too many cold weather fragrance for someone who lives in Florida weather... It seems I will have to make an opening for this one too even though I don't know when I'll wear it.
I liked the Intense when I smelled it. I think my favorite part of the video is it was basically 100% thumbs up from every reviewer. Fun review. The excitement is real! Thanks as always for the opportunity to win a sample of the juice!
Hi. Huge review as usual! Does it smell better than Valentino Uomo intense? I loved it so much than I bought 2 back up bottles just to protect myself against any reformulations lol. Thanks again for transmitting me your passion in that way Carlos!
Hi Carlos, I've just received Valentino Uomo Noir Absolu! You were right, it's fantastic! In the early 90's, Valentino released a limited edition of "Very Valentino". I bought it once and i liked it so so much but then they stopped its production. More than 20 years later, they release Valentino Uomo Noir Absolu and you know what? It smells exactly the same in the dry down! I'm so happy, you can't even know how much! ;) Thank you for all your reviews Sir...
I absolutely love Prada L'homme Intense. I sampled and purchased it based on your review. So you know I'm excited about the Valentino release! I trust everyone's opinion, so I'll have to check it out! Thanks!
I own all the Valentino's and this will be next in line. Class fragrances which last on my skin. Aqua is the only one that doesn't last as long. Cheers guys. 😉
Your review was the last push I needed to buy it and it's amazing! Thanks! And an idea for a video. What makes a fragrance an autumn/winter/spring/summer one? And what makes it better suited for day or night? I sometimes get confused and have doubts about when to use certain fragrance. I love your channel!
Hey Carlos, I figured out what this smells like...I couldn’t put my finger on it but it starts off with that waxy lipstick smell but then it goes to the smell of Euphoria Liquid Gold by Calvin Klein. And 5 hours later it ends up smelling like Stash by Sarah Jessica Parker. But this is much smoother, and way better blended than both of those...Very smooth...thanks for sharing this with me...Its still stuck on the cuff of the sweater I wore that night... 😂
I was going to say the same CK Euphoria Liquid Gold is Middle East exclusive. The sweet sandlewood and pepper make them so similar but I orefer Valatino.
As always LOVE WHEN THESE TWO GET TOGETHER. GREAT REVIEW GUYS! Carlos, I definitely see you becoming the #1 reviewer on UA-cam & please DON'T EVER CHANGE! I love your brutal honesty! You're as far from a sell out as they come....
John Michael Thank you very much! That means more than you know

It’s been awhile since you been this excited about a fragrance. You just came out and said what you thought in the intro. Can’t wait to try it.
I loved your uninhibited enthusiasm! I wanna try, the original was a must-have for me. Thanks guys for the review and the draw!

What a thorough review. I wanted to try this as a fan of the Uomo line but now I just wanna try it that much more!

While you were at Bloomingdales did you see the new Zegna stuff? I’m blown away by Strength and Passion. Those two are stunning.
I did, but didn't try them out. My friend gave me a few samples. Don't remember which ones at the moment
Valentino have to have the best looking bottles by far

Nice review guys. I was going to buy this...and tested it at Nordstrom's and got a sample of it....wearing it, I am not sure if this is for me. It has a heavy feel I am not sure of. I'm not a big fan of Black Orchid either...so maybe that is why.

Well, whatever you guys come up with next, I'll be there if I can. Thanks, Carlos!

Hi. Huge review as usual! Does it smell better than Valentino Uomo intense? I loved it so much than I bought 2 back up bottles just to protect myself against any reformulations lol. Thanks again for transmitting me your passion in that way Carlos!
For me, definitely!

Really love to sample this before I buy this. Sounds amazinggggg!
Oh, it is!
I absolutely love Prada L'homme Intense. I sampled and purchased it based on your review. So you know I'm excited about the Valentino release! I trust everyone's opinion, so I'll have to check it out! Thanks!
This one is only wish list to try. I love the Valentino Uomo line of fragrances. Sandalwood, incense; I’m sold. I would love to try.
I wonder if read older comments.. I was contemplating between this and spicebomb extreme for my winter date scent. What are your thoughts Carlos?
Great video guys, you make a nice duo. Very nice guest appearances as well!
I own all the Valentino's and this will be next in line.
Class fragrances which last on my skin.
Aqua is the only one that doesn't last as long.
Cheers guys.
😉
Great video, Carlos. Your enthusiasm was enough for me, looking forward to checking it out.
OMG!thanks for the review,I need this in my life!!oh and I love to see Family Frag giving feed back!!!😘💜💛💚
Loved this review Bros. Your description Makes me want to own this bottle too. Hope to try it soon. Thanks
✌🏻
Thanks for watching!
Love your passion, Carlos! Can't wait to try this one out.
Thank you!
Your review was the last push I needed to buy it and it's amazing! Thanks!
And an idea for a video. What makes a fragrance an autumn/winter/spring/summer one? And what makes it better suited for day or night? I sometimes get confused and have doubts about when to use certain fragrance. I love your channel!
Gabriel Montoro thanks so much
I love orientals! It helped that Tiff said is was unisex though I don't like Black Orchid.
Hey Carlos, I figured out what this smells like...I couldn’t put my finger on it but it starts off with that waxy lipstick smell but then it goes to the smell of Euphoria Liquid Gold by Calvin Klein. And 5 hours later it ends up smelling like Stash by Sarah Jessica Parker. But this is much smoother, and way better blended than both of those...Very smooth...thanks for sharing this with me...Its still stuck on the cuff of the sweater I wore that night... 😂
Haven't tried that one. Thanks for being a part of this review. See you soon!!!
I really enjoy Stash.
I don’t really care for Stash, so happy I don’t get that LOL
I was going to say the same CK Euphoria Liquid Gold is Middle East exclusive. The sweet sandlewood and pepper make them so similar but I orefer Valatino.
Wow it’s better than Prada L’Homme Intense !? You really make it extraordinary. Getting a huge expectation !
Hope you get to try it soon
Another great video. You guys never disappoint. Getcha Smell On!
never smelled any of the valentino uomo series. but would love to start with this one. sounds intense.
