I have the original Rien and I love it. It’s very underrated and very divisive. Had a sample of the Intense Incense and have still been on the fence of whether I should pull the trigger on a full bottle or if it’s too redundant. Great first impression as always!
Somehow the short popped on my YT this afternoon. I saw you sniffing that fragrance and being literally transported. I have just blind bought it. I got it at a really good price
So what im hearing is dark ( which i love), but that other people around me will enjoy as well 😊 Kinda like clean suede,another great ELDO fragrance, in my opinion
Great Discovery. Etat Libre d'Orange like Comme des Garçons make great artistic perfume. And the price tag is very good. You speak about Comme des Garçons Black, hope you will make a review of this fantastic dark scent.
Been a BeauFort London fanboy for a couple of years.. But for some reason never got around to this one from ELDO.. I pulled the tricker on it yesterday, and it Will be here next Monday... Cant wait now 😊
I also blind bought it, and let me tell you that the first time I smelled it was in the winter, 7-8° C and I didn't like it at first, the aldehydes hit me hard they were the most predominat note on me in the cold weather, it was until the dry down that I start to get it, but it was at the second wear that I fell for it, IMO when this fragrance shines is in the heat, it opens up beautifully, all the notes work better together, I know many will say: your crazy it's a fall winter scent only, but I'm not in this world to please anyone so... When I watched your short video I used it two days in a row, here where I am we're at 32-33° C and it's amazing!!! I'm interested to try the original Rien, my absolute love from ELDO is Jasmin et Cigarette, Rien Incense Intense in second place and then the rest. Still need to try I am trash. As always a pleasure to hear your take on it, thanks for the unboxing Marc!!!
I love reading Fragrantica reviews and there was one that said about the ELDO Rien (not the Intense) --that is smells like the contents of a room that was set on fire, got extinguished with water , and whatever's left was taken outside...so yeah... I've got RIEN and I love the bloody thing ;)
I bought the original and loved it so I got this one too, the BIG one as well . I love it . But other ppl don’t . I don’t care . I wear fragrances for myself .
Only smelled this on a friend once. Dude had a leather jacket on and grey faded jeans...really captured the look for the scent imo. Little bite to this one for sure.
I've wanted to blind buy this for a long time. I was hoping you'd say it's more animalic, but it still sounds good. All my eldos are 50ml and I don't want a 100ml sticking out like a sore thumb. Damn ocd
Yeah I think the cumin, leather and aldehydes are combining to create an accord that many would receive as animalic, especially with some personal chemistry tweaks on skin. I also don't get as animalic an impression, but I can definitely see where many would. I have a bottle, and I am trying to decide if I like it enough and it's unique enough to put it in my winter bin. Even if I don't, ELDO is one of the few houses from whom I will buy anything they put out - it's all art, either for me or someone I know.
You want to know what ELDO Ríen Intense Incense smell like- think of the many night scenes from the movie Girl with the Dragon Tattoo- picture that in your mind as you picture this punk haired skinny hot babe getting off her motorcycle all dressed in black leathers -- that’s what this smells like- think ELDO RI as she rides hard through the industrial part of London ., Sweden ., Germany.., take your pick Oh and remember it’s a dark wet kinda drizzly night Do y’all get the picture This is what this fragrance smells like Cheers., you can thank me later.)
Absolutely brilliant review! No beating around the bush nonsense, I'd already read the comments beforehand. The joker🤡that stated thatthe kit it smells like Urinal Cake? 😂😮😂😢 I wait with eager anticipation. 48 Hours from now it'll be arriving 🛬 At my area. Thank you kindly. Much appreciated. Any updates on projection & silage would be greatly appreciated. Full respect from across the pond! ❤
Usually a huge fan of animalics but past the opening this is just a goat that got loose in a chemical supply store. Weird and abstract as if a computer composed it
@@robes08 You know what, it’s an interesting scent, I’ll admit that. But I’m not loving it. Well, regarding blind buys, I’m gonna have to do it again anyways. Gotta try two more from Serge Lutens ( Santal and Chergui ) and Oajan from Parfums de Marley 😅

Thanks for sharing!
At has a strong opening yet after the dry down its pretty smooth.😁I should try the Rien.🤔
Somehow the short popped on my YT this afternoon. I saw you sniffing that fragrance and being literally transported. I have just blind bought it. I got it at a really good price
Interesting blind buy, you like to live dangerously!
@@robes08one of the best fragrances out. Both Riens are some of my favourite fragrances of all time they replaced Antaeus for me.
One of the very first parfums I ever purchased. It is straight up beast mode and it smells sublime. Instant love for me.
Its not that beast mode it only last like 6hrs
thank god this kind of perfume is still being made
sounds like the type of scent you put on to go to a black metal concert. amazing!
would work well in that scenario!
love this stuff
So what im hearing is dark ( which i love), but that other people around me will enjoy as well 😊
Kinda like clean suede,another great ELDO fragrance, in my opinion
What's in the box?.....Darkest juice ever made. Maybe. I know it sounds crazy but I have a backup.
Great Discovery. Etat Libre d'Orange like Comme des Garçons make great artistic perfume. And the price tag is very good.

Definitely a buy for me.

How is it?

Have you tried Hermann à mes côtés me paraissait une ombre? Jazz&Cig is great.
@@contrast1908 No but I will, thanks fot the recommendation! 🙏🏻
I got this first and i love it. Got a little T-Rex in it... Then I picked up Rein expecting a drop off. But Rein is also excellent. Fyi ✌🏻
Killer fragrance ❤

Fabulous review ❤
I bought the original and loved it so I got this one too, the BIG one as well . I love it . But other ppl don’t . I don’t care . I wear fragrances for myself .
always wear it for yourself
It only comes in 100ml size bottles, there are no 50ml.
Try some of the Beaufort London perfumes if you like dark themes
I own several, all great unique releases.
Spring Summer or fall winter?🤔
Only smelled this on a friend once. Dude had a leather jacket on and grey faded jeans...really captured the look for the scent imo. Little bite to this one for sure.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
I am woman and I love and good incense scent, lets see how it goes. Thank you.
I've been hankering to blind buy this one.
Do a review on Dunhil agarwood
Smoke and incense. Take my money. If I find on discounters….sold.
I've wanted to blind buy this for a long time. I was hoping you'd say it's more animalic, but it still sounds good. All my eldos are 50ml and I don't want a 100ml sticking out like a sore thumb. Damn ocd
lol, a 50 should just be fine.
I’m going to see Alien Romulus tonight, I think I’m going to wear this :)
I keep meaning to buy this one, but there always seems to be something else that has piqued my interest more.
The "kouros" elements u get in the OG rien. Never tried this one.
How does it compare to Interlude, any similarities?
Perhaps worn in the same situations, i think that's all I can think of.
@@robes08 It's good that they're different then, because I want both. I love incense.
Yeah I think the cumin, leather and aldehydes are combining to create an accord that many would receive as animalic, especially with some personal chemistry tweaks on skin.

Also get the regular version 5 bottles of each like I said you can thank me later
5? holy
Someone told me i smell like a person who does witchcraft haha i attend goth clubs and some guy told me i smell like incense and dark.
lol, perfect!
This smells almost exactly like Nag Champa incense to my nose.
interesting!
2:20 you got the big boy because it only comes in one size 100ml
That makes all kind of sense. Well don't I feel like a goof now.
Is it true there's some urinal cake in there?
hmmm, I don't think I got any of that.
@@robes08 I got me a bottle and I get no urinal cake either. People post so much hyperbole. Glorious frag, though.

Do y’all get the picture
This is what this fragrance smells like

Thanks for sharing!
If I suspect a slightest whiff of urinal cake, I'm out. Even G Gentleman & D&B LBIntense are unacceptable.

Appreciate the support! As for performance, it's above average at the moment.
First 😂

It’s pretty bad for me. Another blind buy gone totally wrong. Too feminine and not strong at all.
ouch! Well perhaps blind buying isn't for you. Def. not feminine on me, however I hear the original Rien can be feminine.
@@robes08 You know what, it’s an interesting scent, I’ll admit that. But I’m not loving it. Well, regarding blind buys, I’m gonna have to do it again anyways. Gotta try two more from Serge Lutens ( Santal and Chergui ) and Oajan from Parfums de Marley 😅
Worst fragrance I’ve ever smelled. Scrubber big time.
Is it sharp? As in.. Very sharp
so sharp it might hurt you
Is it sharp? As in very. As in all the way to the base
nope
You said cumin and kouros. 2 no no words 🤷♂️
Love kouros but don't like this. Give it a try anyway
