Really enjoyed this, Eugenius. A few years after the brand launched in 2000 (I was a teenager) my dad bought my mum a bottle of Lys Med. I remember seeing the bottle and thinking the brand was called Edouard Flechier. It was only until I really started getting into fragrances in my early twenties that I realised the brand was actually Frederic Malle! Shout out to Freddie. Great concept.
Geranium Pour Monsieur is really a fantastic scent. The bittersweet effect created by the mint and spices is what makes this so special. Can't wait to get a bottle of it sometime soon.
I agree. Great signature scent. I didn't appreciate this one at first, but coming back to it after smelling other niche I really fell for it. Definitely getting a bottle. I'm starting to appreciate Malle more because they are unique but actually wearable.
Geranium pour monsieur is a beautiful bracing scent. I dont normally bitch to much about longevity, but GPM vanishes very quick on me unfortunately which made me think twice about buying it. Dries van Noten is my next purchase 👌
I’ve been obsessed with Geranium Pour Monsieur recently as well. Took me a while to realize it’s the mint fragrance that I’ve always been looking for. I think Angelique might be my next Malle... reminds me most of Voyage, but more delicate. I wouldn’t mind owning a bottle of Vetiver Ext. either, but I haven’t had a strong enough urge to pull the trigger yet. Hooray for Malle month.
I was waiting to hear Une Fleur de Cassie but maybe you didn't want to mention it since you've talked about it in other videos. I just ordered a 10ml of it since I'm not sure I could ever get through a bottle (and there's a nice free 7ml sample promotion on right now). I agree with the love for Geranium, I also love En Passant for it's photo realistic naturalness. Eau de Magnolia is also great and I think underrated. I found it a bit blah the first time I tried it but after owning it really has a lot of lasting power (but remains sheer) and a lot of depth, I get bright citrusy facets with an undertone of wood and spice that keeps it interesting all day.
I have both Geranium pour Monsieur and Lys Med and love them both in the spring usually Geranium early on and Lys in late spring early Summer, Great review as usual Eugene 😀
Nailed it with VetiverX. Already had a couple of wearings this year. Decent layering with Bigarade Concentree too. Geranium was always one of my favourites on paper. Not as minty when it hits the skin though.
I was one of the commenters mentioning barbershop fougeres from Malle. I also mentioned leather chypres, and as per this video it sounds like they both already exist in the line lol, in Geranium PM and PdT respectively. GPM seemed too one note minty on my skin but I have a sample so I'll give it another try. PdT I've not tried at all but am very intrigued based on your description. Loving all these Malle videos!
SOTD: Grey Vetiver on a wet spring day. Cannot wait to try Vetiver Extraordinare and Geranium Pour Monsieur. Just sampled Lys and it’s GORGEOUS. As is POAL.
If you haven’t already you’ve got to read the only review of La Parfum De Therese on basenotes by Zealot Crusader. Edmond tried to sell the perfume multiple times but it was to “futuristic”. It was the first Malle I smelled and maybe my favorite. Another posthumous Roudnitska release would be my one wish from Frederic Malle.
Love the streams as well, watched the stream earlier today. He said he is working with Jean-Claude, Carlos, Dominique and Maurice on some things (potential future fragrances, since not everything gets released if not good enough). Sounds pretty good to me
Very nice list..if you get a chance try israa and miraj by Stephan humbert lucas,since putting my nose on it I haven’t reached for my Frederic Malle musk R,,,it makes MR smells childish and unfinished,it used to be my all the time favourite though,I guess not anymore.
i just saw this video from the Originaldogman Jon Castro. The douchery is STRONG in that one. Haters hate. That is all they know how to do. Seemed like a fascination with your bedroom prowess as well.
I loved Geranium Pour Monsieur the first time I smelled it. The sales assistant said it was Monsieur Malle's personal scent, but I don't know if that's true. Cheers, Eugen!
To my nose, Parfum de Therese smells like a more wearable version of Breath of God by Lush. Something about the fruity melon note contrasted by the darker earthy notes in the base.
1) le parfum de therese
2) Lys Mediterranee
3) Vetiver extraodinare
4)
Angeliques Sous La Pluie
5) Geranium pour monsieur
Thank you for this. Hate when UA-camrs don’t put this in the description. Like it’s not that hard lol.

My Fav. from the house
1. Therese
2. Lys
3. Lipstick
4. Angeliq.
5. Noir Ep.
I love lys mediterranee! It's gorgeous une fleur de cassie & eau de magnolia are my two other spring favourites 👌
Vetiver Extraordinaire is an all year-rounder, as well as the best Malle, in my opinion.
I agree. Great signature scent. I didn't appreciate this one at first, but coming back to it after smelling other niche I really fell for it. Definitely getting a bottle. I'm starting to appreciate Malle more because they are unique but actually wearable.
Eugene's system, description and delivery is just brilliant.
Respectfully.
French lover is very green. Don't you think of it as a spring fragrance?
Oh man you Rock. Love love love this list I really appreciate all your videos you do brother. Andy from Berkeley

Yet another amazing, informative review!
I'm coming back to IG soon and I'll explain everything and you WILL forgive me.
Another great review.
Glad you love Geranium Pour Monsieur too.

Just picked up En Passant. Cologne Indelebile is also an easy beautiful spring/summer grab
Rocking Chanel No.19 and No. 22 Love it for spring. No.22 on colder days
Like starting off the day with a blast of minty freshness nothing like this in my collection nice add.

Where does he do the livestreams please? On the official Insta channel? Are they still available somewhere? Thanks!
@@pradeep_sekar Instagram. You can find them in the IGTV or video section there
Nice list. I'd add Eau de Magnolia as a consideration for a hot spring day.
Wearing Geranium pM right now - best mint apart from Heeleys Menthe fraiche. My to go scent for spring us No. 19 EdT. Greenness galore!
I get a huge dentist room/chemical zingy toothpaste vibe from Geranium pour Monsieur. Interesting fragrance nonetheless!
Geranium pour monsieur is a favourite of mine and I’ve run out . Must get a new bottle.
I have the vetiver but it has a rubbery note that bugs me.
Very nice list..if you get a chance try israa and miraj by Stephan humbert lucas,since putting my nose on it I haven’t reached for my Frederic Malle musk R,,,it makes MR smells childish and unfinished,it used to be my all the time favourite though,I guess not anymore.
I get cumin from v.e. It’s a very airy fragrance & i only wear it in spring & summer.
i just saw this video from the Originaldogman Jon Castro. The douchery is STRONG in that one. Haters hate. That is all they know how to do. Seemed like a fascination with your bedroom prowess as well.
Carnal Flower for summer? btw lys mediterranee and geranium pour monsieur are my favs.
I loved Geranium Pour Monsieur the first time I smelled it. The sales assistant said it was Monsieur Malle's personal scent, but I don't know if that's true. Cheers, Eugen!
I’m really excited to wear Thé Cachemire again, but my bottles almost done. Know where to get them discounted in the US?
lys mediterranee and superstitious💚
Superstitious, easily
How do you watch the Live’s after the fact? Couldn’t make it this morning
Thoughts on Bigarade Concentree?
Love Geranium. Eau de magnolia too but a bit too sheer ..thinking maybe a layering which is shameful LOL
Would you compare vetiver extraordinaire to gray vetiver?
Thoughts on eau de magnolia?
You should try MEM by Bogue Perfumery Great for spring or autumn. 5 lavenders but to me it smells like raspberry jam/syrup
Smelt Geranium and like it but I have Czech&Speake No 88 which is Rose and Geranium and has similar vibe without the mint.
Green earthy soft spring fragrance for me has been Caron pour un homme sport. It’s great and not sporty at all
Geranium not last longer imo. It only last for one hour esp that minty scent.
Another Torontonian! Woot-woot!
The Azzaro Wild Mint has been getting raved by a handful of reviewers what is you thought on it?
To my nose, Parfum de Therese smells like a more wearable version of Breath of God by Lush. Something about the fruity melon note contrasted by the darker earthy notes in the base.
Wanted to know what you think about outrageous?
Everyday grind!
work it
#wackpack do a livestream I’m bored at work LOL 😂
An all time classic request
Just started watching it. You better mention En Passant, or I’m unsubscribing.
Edmond Roudnitska is a man, I know the name can be misleading.
I don't remember approving these
No French Lover???? 🤨
First ☝🏼😎
I cannot understand what is the matter with you? Chanel does not need defending. Like what you want .
FeerthT! #wackpack
