    Worst fragrance for me is Invictus. Sickening sour dishrag smell that is not only in Invictus but in so many other men's scents. Can't believe anyone could enjoy that.

    It’s so interesting how different we all are in our preferences. I loathe Delina and almost everything that I’ve smelled from Montale (sampled 9 so far). I think I really don’t like a thick, jammy rose, especially if it’s got oud facets. I do love a lighter rose, though; Stella was my signature scent for several years.

    • @purplemonkeymadness

      I just tested the 3 Delinas side by side last night and none of them work with my chemistry. Original is too sour, La Rosée is too sharp, and Exclusif straight up smells like cheap cigarettes and musk, lol

    I personally adore Feve Delicieuse on my skin, as it comes across sweet gourmand and powdery, with soft lavender. But I can understand that it may not suit everyone’s skin, as it can get a bit herbal.

    I am one of those people who fall into the camp of BR540 smelling like burnt latex and exhaust. I smell no sweetness or any notes everyone else seems to wax poetic about. Interestingly enough, Cloud and Burberry Her also smell like burnt latex and exhaust, so I can confirm for non-fans of BR540 that they are good dupes lol. I find I don't enjoy a lot of Kurkdjian scents (although one of his is my signature scent), so I usually prefer to buy a decant and test them out a few times before buying a full sized bottle. I really dislike sweet jammy rose scents, and it's in the DNA of many of his fragrances. I've been pretty good with blind buys but one that had great reviews but just turned my stomach was Rasasi Daarej. A close second is Glossier You, way too sweet and powdery.

    Amethyst - a pretty tobacco scent, French Grey - clean relaxing neroli lavender musk, Bourbon - a woody vanilla

    I’ve worn BDK’s Velvet Tonka today and it pissed me right off! There are no notes to my nose, it smells only of cheap marzipan. A perfume has never made me angry before..! It even gave me a headache and I never get headaches! Huge letdown and I’ll never wear it again.

    I really love Nirvana Bourbon from Elizabeth & James. It is a bit linear but great scent for the price. I believe the whole line is being discontinued but a lot of discounters have them at great deals.

    It's sad that often , when someone dyslike a perfum he says a "grandma smell" . Its mysognystic and ageist in my opinion. A frangrance that I can't wear is ITALICA from Xerjoff. For me it's cloying from the first seconds.

    • @FrenchCocoa369
      @FrenchCocoa369 Рік тому

      We aren’t saying it smell like granny literally. Feve for example to me smells like a granny’s perfume from the 1800’s. Then it turns into the smell of a pack of baby pampers…. Ummm… damn… well maybe you are right. Sorry to the grannies and the babies 😮

    @viggenone Рік тому +3

    I really don't "Hate" any fragrance, I just dislike some, but not to the point of really hating them, it's more an internal trigger by the scent that makes you like or dislike a fragrance IMO. In general I gravitate more to niche because I find more substance than in the everyday designer fragrances, designer's are not bad at all, just doesn't makes me feel the way niche compositions do. The only one that I "hate" is Sauvage, but because it burns my nostrils, and to me, the scent is a modernized cliche of how a male fragrance should smell, but it's just my opinion. Great video, is good to hear different points of view, thank you Sebastian!!!

  • @mrscluedo7597
    @mrscluedo7597 Рік тому +3

    I’m smiling because I have or love a bunch of these fragrances! Like Fève délicieuse, Le Lion, Synthetic jungle… I’m really into green perfumes since a while. My all time favorite is number 19 but a good vintage one!
    I don’t like to hear “it’s smells like a grand-ma”. No, it’s smells vintage, old fashion but this is too pejorative and some grand-ma smell fabulous!
    There is one perfume that is very hyped but that I don’t appreciate, at least on my skin, it is Rosendo Mateu 5. There is a vibe of burnt rubber that sticks to my nose 😣
    Well, thank you for this video, great idea!

    I just really can't do citrusy fragrances- I've tried. I have bought and decluttered Sun Song by LV, Sundrunk by Imaginary authors, CKN2U, Liquid Sun by Thalia Sodi...I keep trying them and then getting rid of them...LOL! Now, there can be citrus in the opening but a citrus-centered fragrance smells like Pine Sol to me! Lol.. But, I dont do light, airy bright fragrances very much...I prefer the dark, rich, opulent perfumes- even Nirvana Rose..LOL!

    I just got my sample of Akro Smoke today and I'm wearing it right now. Searched for a smokey scent. It got a nice smoke, got no problem with that, but I don't get any juniper resins wich I love and its getting to sweet and Tonka'ish for me.
    I really love Akro Ink though! A great different take on Vetiver.
    My favourite smokey Scent still is Gucci - Guilty Absolute and Le Labo - Patchouli.

  • @catherinegreer854
    @catherinegreer854 Рік тому +5

    Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune was one of my worst blind buys. I usually enjoy citrus smells but this was an Ammonia bomb! I read that one of the notes cassis can have a strong Ammonia (cat pee) smell. I have had cat's and yes that is exactly what I pinpoint in this fragrance. I think the note of cassis especially is offensive to my nose. I can pick it out almost immediately in any fragrance.

    90's A*Men kicks ass! That person could maybe give Cuba's Prestige a try if they want something with less patchouli and more synthetic amber. But it retains that opening sparkle of A*Men. I'll admit that I do get a makeup-bag vibe from Feve. Doesn't stop me from wearing it! 😁

    Sometimes fragrances simply don't work with one's skin chemistry. My daughter & I have had a number of popular fragrances dry down to "rest home", pee, "stale saliva" and in the case of Lune Feline that we were so excited about, medicinal hospital bandages. I'm a firm believer in try before you buy whenever possible. 😀

    I actually like Synthetic Jungle, but ironically I don't feel it has the value because Diptyque L'ombre Dans L'eau has a similar (but imo better) profile at a much lower cost. Sisley Eau de Campagne is also similar at a fraction of the cost.
    In terms of my worst, it's not necessarily the worst scent I've ever tried but I'd pick Mango Skin from Vilhelm. Vilhelm is my favorite house and even things that I don't personally want I tend to like and approve of on an objective level. Given Mango Skin's popularity, I skipped the smell test and sprayed it right on my wrist when I saw a tester in store. This was a mistake as it made me immediately nauseated and I had to find an alcoholic wipe to get it off. I can see why other people like the fragrance, but its probably the biggest letdown I've had with any fragrance given that I'm normally very picky and skeptical but walked into this with high expectations.

    Interesting concept for a video , but I am not sure what anyone could have against at least 3 here that I love . I think DIOR FEVE DELICIEUSE is great as well as GUERLAIN L'HOMME IDEAL EXTREME what a great tobacco scent especially in the cold of Winter , my performance is great with both . I get a bit why Akro Smoke could be polarizing , but my deal is it settles down too close to Tom Ford TV and IMO you don't need both . I have them both and prefer TV but at the price of Akro it's a great alternative . Cheers Brutha ( PS. yes update the smoky fragrance video )

    Five O'clock Eau Gingembre came recommended by you and Emy's World of Fragrance. Emy has never steered me wrong, but this time, wow. For me, it was an intial blast of cheap soap, and then a faint bit of woods and a hint of pine in the dry down. I thought it would be a true love, but it is a big nothing burger on me. The other two fragrances I was actually allergic to. I loved Rouge Smoking but it gave me a bad allergic reaction, and the last one is Diptique's Tempo. I love patchouli too, so I bought it. It stunk like stale cheap soap and granny, and gave me a severe allergic reaction.
    From this list, I have to say Feve Delicieuse was a love at first sniff. It's yummy!

    I’m always struggling with the performance of fragrances, no matter cheap ones or expensive niche. For some reason my skin tends to eat up the scents and in a couple of hours are gone. That’s why I like Mancera juices, they give me the intensity that I need, I have Amber Fever, Fig Ecstasy, Pearl, Juicy Flowers, Kumquat Wood, Purple Flowers and many more… I use them on their own or in combination with other brands just to improve the longevity 😅

    I actually purchased synthetic jungle for Christmas last year. It was a blind buy based off of your review! I am happy with it because I like green fragrances, but I have to be honest; it is not my favorite. I think my favorite fragrance that includes basil is Basilico and Fellini from Vilhelm. There is a juiciness that balances the basil and the grass. I believe it is dragon fruit and fig. I personally find it addicting where as I do not with synthetic jungle. I will say in general FM fragrances are very polarizing. My mother despises the brand. I happen to own 14😂

    My worst blind buy experience has to be Habanita. It was early on in my fragrance journey. Lucky me, I met an older, more experienced 'perfumista' as she likes to call herself who saw my inexperience and naiveté as an opportunity to lie, mislead and swindle. She sold me Habanita under some completely untruthful pretense. I've come to really enjoy baby powder scents. This smells like baby powder that's been left out in the rain, become a paste and serve as a perfect place for all the neighborhood dogs to come relieve themselves. Imagine that powder dried up and was put into a perfume bottle.

    the A*Men plus a few flankers I tried (and a Alien also) all have something in the drydown (possibly the patchouli) that I don't like. Really turns me off but it's not something I notice on others wearing them. It's one of these smells that it isn't that the scent is awful so much as annoying... if you know what I mean. Cool review.

    Sebastian, you can quote me on this: In 2020, I bought Paco Rabanne's "1 Million Parfum" without knowing what it's like, and I truly hated it. Luckily, I was able to get a full refund. When I ordered it, I thought that it was going to be like "1 Million EDT" but much greater than that. However, it smelled like a very cheap synthetic leather construction boot. I was very disappointed.

    Byredo Gypsy water - I can see why many people like it, but it’s just so cloying and induces headaches in me. However, once it wears off a bit after 2-3 hours, it’s a really nice smell. I think I just don’t like the combo of citrus and vanilla. My other fragrance is: Glossier You - has a massive fan base and it smells very comforting and amazing in the bottle, BUT it has zero projection. As soon as I spray it on, I can’t smell it on myself. It’s meant to smell like clean skin, so maybe that’s why?
