Hi Marcello (I hope I wrote it right) first time commenting but I’ve been hooked woth your channel for years. I recentlt watched your videos on Pierre Guillaume Paris and I just came back from the shop in Paris. I’m flabbergasted by their fragrances and the quality of their fragrances. Fell in love with Isparta, Limanakia and Anti-Blues. The vendor (don’t remember his name) was really nice and knowledgeable and when I mentionned you he was really happy to help me. Thank you for the discovery👍🏾
Awesome to hear from you Mohamed💫 Thank you for your support and really appreciate you jumping into the conversation! I loved reading your comment about visiting the Pierre Guillaume Boutique and so happy that you too fell in love with this incredible creator/perfumer♥️ (thanks for dropping my name...nice work homie😎) I have the discovery set and will check out the ones that you listed above as I haven't had the chance to experience these yet (he has over 100 fragrances!!!! incredible collection😍) Thanks again for reaching out Mohamed👊🏽
I've already sampled Boundless and Lafayette Street, and yes, it's pure magic! Uden, by Xerjoff, would be my favorite in this category, although a bit more citrusy. Looking forward for #100 MT. Cheers from Brazil!
Great fragrance choices once again Marcelo!! Vanilla Powder is one that I'm also enjoying and I absolutely am loving the scent! And Cannibis Dolce is always nice too, it actually works brilliant in the heat surprisingly! So sorry once again that I couldnt do the spotlight segment this time around. Will definitely love to make it work for future opportunities!! Congrats as well to you and Kev on K&M Tours, amazing 🤩 Have a brilliant weekend, my friend!
Always great to read your comments Vera! And no sweat about the Spotlight....next month! (or sometime after that😉) I love that Cannabis Dolce works in high heat....I have worn it here over summer and I too feel that it performs beautifully. You're going to have to join Kevin and I in Milano next year😎⚡️
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector I still wear Cannibis Dolce when I'm at home. I tried wearing it to work and my colleagues were absolutely curious and scared HAHA And yes omg, I'd do my best to save up for that, I really do wanna go so so bad with you both there!! It'll be such an adventure 🤩 Dubai sounds like maddd fun too! I've never been to any of these places!
My favourite woody vanilla - Gris Charnel Extrait. The mix of tea, iris, bourbon vanilla, cedar wood and, of course, fig is absolutely delectable. Got such an amazing darkness about it without being too earthy or dusty, rather on the contrary it is so smooth. Go-to date night fragrance, such an addictive smell.
Good choice Zack! I can't believe that I forgot to include this one in the mix😩 I love GCE🧡 and the way that you described it is perfect; totally agree Thanks for sharing mate, very much appreciated💫
Nicely done Marcelo👍👍. I love Desert Rosewood, mainly due to scent memory of central Australia. I know it’s not the most popular G&B but it is one of my favorites. Looking forward to the Live👍👍
Thanks Mike! Really excited to have you as our Spotlight Member on the LIVE this should be a lot of fun🤩 I'm embarrased to admit this......but I have never traveled to central Australia yet😣 Everytime I start looking at doing a trip, I get distracted with all the amazing places around the world😍 (always funny that we travel around the world, when in fact there's magic just around the corner!) See you on Sunday mate😎
what a lucky day - Lafayette Street (along Sutton Place) is the first BOND N9 I've tried and i was stunned - looking forward for my financier to let my buy it in the future - it's just too good and nostalgic for me.
Yes, life is about negotiating with your personal 'financier'🙄 and let me say, that if it wasn't for these wise, beautiful people (and I can 100% speak for myself on this), we would be very poor and sad😕 (I'm soooooo grateful for my wonderful 'financier' because I don't have to think of the budget! That's her job😉) And yes, in the drydown of Lafayette, there are some woody undertones along with some amber warmth....it comes off those early sweet/citrus/fruits....I would continue to negotiate and see if you could get this soon ready for your upcoming Spring (works wonders in this weather🤩) Always good to hear from you David👊🏽
I’m a huge fan from Turkey, me and my family all together watch your videos and we love them all. Keep the good stuff going, thank you for being an amazing collector and reviewer.
A Million Thank You!!!!!💫 What an awesome comment to read and really appreciate the support and encouragement♥️ I had the great priviledge to travel through Turkey in 2018 and loved every moment of this experience. I missed on going to Istanbul (there was trouble in the capital at that time and I didn't want any drama) but I plan to return and make sure that I explore one of the most dynamic cities in the world😍 Thank you again @eee-hi1kl, thank you for jumping into the conversation💫
Loving the breakdown of the perfumes you mentioned. More added to my ever growing list😅. Over the weekend, I accidentally walked into a niche perfume parlour 😁. I was over the moon when I discovered they carried the house of Fueguia. After almost shouting out my surprise and then going into a triad of telling the sales person about the perfume, he asked me "how do you know so much about this house?" Of course I straight away told him about Niche Fragrance Collector😊. He offered me an amazing discount on one of the Fueguia honey scented perfume....but sadly I had to walk away from it, as my own financier gave the side to side shake of the head😢. (My financier is the strict part of me).
You made me laugh out loud😂 So if I read this right....your 'financier' is YOU!!! 🤩 You're a stronger person that I will ever be! Your self control is ninja like! If I played out that entire scene as you described it...I would be walking out with 8 perfumes and then working out my game plan on how I'm going to 'explain' what just happened to my financier....and more importantly, why this is a good thing😬 Curious to know which one is the honey scented one....I gotta try this one out! BTW would love to know your name @hmagix9554 (I don't think I've asked this before...? If you're ok to share)....thanks again for reaching out💫
Oh my gosh, I can't tell you what kind of willpower I needed to walk away from the offer, I've had my eyes, nose, and remaining senses on Fueguia. And I totally understand about walking away with 8 bottles comfortably nestled in a chic bag with a bow on top!😂 Just stick the 8 bottles under your financiers nose, no words needed 😂 Yes, my financier is me! 😅I was completely bummed about the "no." The fragrance was/is Muskara Apis. Just WOW! Amazing fragrance, and i smelled it after having gone through at least 5 other fragrances, and i could straight away pick up on various notes, however honey right of the bat for me. So basicly the sales person offered me 50% off....yup I know... I walked away from that😢 Thank you for your reply. Take care Ayesha.
I have a sample of More than words and i agree is very nice, very noticeable, i also like woody vanilla fragrances lovely scent profile, these fragrances sound very nice, thanks marcelo
Big Mike in the HOUSE😎 Sad that you won't be able to make it for the LIVE (yes, it is a Monday morning for us Aussies) but please tell me you'll be able to be there for the Oligarch Meet Up 🙏🏽 (Sat 9th March....you gotta be there for that!💫) Hoping all is well for you mate
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Hey brother I will be definitely there on the 9th. I am hoping to bring some Empanadas like last time too. Should be good 😊 I have to be at work sadly on Monday but hope everyone has a ball 😊
Emphasising don’t blind buy: rocking a Jazeel discovery set based on your mentioning of The Palace last week (tested yesterday). Heyam today. Beautiful drydown, quite dense (fall/winter) fragrance. Thanks for shining a small light on Jazeel. So far an interesting house and recommendation.
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector For now Heyam I liked the best, Ghala is a very decent Rose-Oud and so far a like but not a love. Wid is to be retested in warmer weather and The Palace worked well in cold. Might beat Heyam but I love a good chypre. It needs some more testing to discover its layerings.
Hello Marcelo, would love to see your take on Acqua Di Parma’s Oud, Leather and Oud and Spice, i think they are very underrated. Would you agree or do you think the reason they are not popular is because they dont make good fragrances, I personally like them.
I haven't ventured into the Acqua Di Parma’s Oud, Leather or Oud and Spice range. Early in my niche journey I purchased a few from these guys but then got distracted by the million other niche house's out there....but I need to loop back because I do love their collection; personally they make beautiful fragrances Promise that I will explore this in time @checkmate8015 .....always good to read your comments homie👊🏽
Hi Marcelo, I’ve been enjoying watching all your thoroughly researched videos and love all the Maté talks. One house I haven’t seen you review yet (unless I missed something) is Zoologist. I’m very curious to hear your thoughts on this house and their unconventional perfumery.
Firstly, WELCOME BRAM!!! Awesome to see you become a member...thank you!👊🏽♥️ (good luck for next week⚡️) I haven't spent much time with Zoologist. A favourite retailer has just started to stock it here in Melbourne and I do look forward to exploring these in more detail...watch this space😉 Thanks for reaching out Bram, great to hear from you mate💫
Good question Mr Pop....not sure?? Maybe one day. I know that the Spanish speaking world of Perfume Channels is really firing🚀 I always say "Let it Flow"....the universe always guides correctly; so lets see Always good to hear from you homie👊🏽
Ooo Marcelo my man. Vanila powder is to me best release of 2023. Fragrance du bois and bdk as a brands smelling great but they are not brands for me, i am really into strong, statment making fragrances, and unfortunately they do not project as much i would like.
Hey Filip, great to hear from you homie👊🏽 I would have to agree; I LOVE Vanilla Powder and as I mentioned whenever I share this with others, it's an instant love too🥰 Interesting that BDK don't project for you. I find that for me I have to spray carefully; more than 3 sprays is waaaaay too much. For me they're super potent! Great to hear from you mate, thanks for jumping into the conversation💫
Please pleasee upload the review with the Torino23, I'm constantly looking for it but it's out of stock. I'll probably blind buy it anyways, but I want your master opinion. 😁😁
I may have filmed this along with my 'Financier' the other day🙄 And this production might just be coming out this Sunday😎 Might be wearing it today...🥰 I plan to talk more about it during the NFC LIVE that's coming up🤩 Good to hear from you Robert👊🏽💫
Yes, ‘Skunky’ is the right definition but my books its also a ‘skanky’ cannabis… It’s been up to no good my my books😕 I love the name, the devil’s lettuce😂… Never heard this before and yes I can tell that you have no experience in this area 😏 Good to hear from you Chesterfield 💫
Absolutely; at it's core this a wonderful Rose/Oud combo but there's other things going on in here too. I detect a sweet raspberry not in the opening (or at least something fruity) and then in the dry down the sillage for me is very sweet and moreish....so assuming that there's some vanilla But this is pure speculation and might be completely wrong😉 Great to hear from you Kia, thanks for jumping into the conversation👊🏽
Sometimes I wish we stuck to the standardized definitions of scent profiles and stopped trying to include ABC when referring to XYZ. Having said notes within a fragrance doesn't mean it qualifies in said category, much like when people (falsely) call Layton a gourmand or when people call Elysium a fougere (when clearly neither of them are). And FWIW, I see this all too often even among experienced people, e.g. when Aaron Terence Hughes called Herod a summer fragrance (probably the most infamous one that I remember). Scents that come to mind when I think woody-vanilla: Bouquet Ideale, Babylon, Sultan, Silky Woods, Vanille Antique, Golden Powder, perhaps even Vanille Leather. Oh and I agree with the sentiment that the aforementioned Matiere absolutely blows. Synthetic sweet musks with coconut, basically a solar floral with no floral.

I am however in a bit of a dillema because I am just 15 and even though I love niche perfumery most of my age group doesn't, what designer fragrance would you reccomend for school that is a bit unique but still likeable enough to not "offend" anyone with?
Awesome to hear from you Kees and you're welcome my friend...love that we can connect from across the world!

Perfect place to start Good Luck Kees💫
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Do you also have experience with mid priced fragrances? If yes what could you recommend from there? I do love creeds but they are quite expensive so I would rather use them less often to still keep it "special".
Hey Kees, there’s an awesome Aussie brand called Goldfield and banks, they have great collection, very diverse and a perfect place to begin to experience, unique niche perfumery. This is where I started very early on and still enjoy the fragrances today
