I Bought my First Kilian Fragrance!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 лис 2020
- I decided it was time to pull the trigger on my first bottle from niche fragrance brand By Kilian. This scent is one of the best sweet gourmand fragrances in my opinion. I have owned decants and clones for years but it was time to own a bottle! Which could it be Straight to Heaven? Intoxicated? Black Phantom? Back to Black? Which is your favourite By Kilian fragrance?

Black Phantom is an amazing fragrance, and easily one of their best, along with Straight to Heaven, Back to Black, Apple Brandy, and Intoxicated. Many other great offerings from Kilian
I'm happy for you, Chris. I certainly plan on buying a bottle myself very soon. Great purchase!!
Congrats on the first bottle. Kilian is one of my favourite brands :D I love the brand aesthetic! BP is an amazing fragrance too.
Such an amazing scent! Smelled this years ago and went to their boutique in NYC and fell in love with it again. Definitely getting a bottle very soon. Happy you got your first Kilian! Such a great house. Cheers 🙌🏼
Black Phantom is a stunner! I’m a big Kilian fan and this was actually my first bottle from this house as well. Great pick up and great video!
I had the same reaction when I got my first Kilian bottle. I was surprised how elegant and beautiful the bottle was, now I have several but it never gets old. Congrats on your first bottle and for getting one of the best from the line.
I totally get it Chris, the feeling of owning a genuine bottle is unprecedented! Like you say only the die hard frag heads would understand. Well done on your purchase! 👍
Agreed. I sit back sometimes and admire the collection I have built. I get it!
I'm re-watching this one as I just ordered the same bottle. Thanks for sharing these great emotions Chris. Hope to get a reaction as nice as yours!
That was my first purchase from the brand as well. It's incredibly beautiful! Great choice for a great start!
I love your reaction to the bottle and scent. I’m also currently looking to acquire my first Killian bottle.
Excellent choice, Black Phantom is amazing 🤘🏻
Was an instant crush for me!
Yes but how many remorgages of the house did it take?
Oh just a couple. Not too bad.
Congrats Chris on your first Bottle Kilian , i have the full pres version , and interestingly enough mine has a silver label . Well done and yes its truely a great scent .
Congratulations Chris on your first kilian fragrance. I love kilian intoxicated 😵 fragrances. I hope you enjoy your new kilian fragrance .
Thanks Chris. Black Phantom is pure 🔥
Great video !! 👏 This is a house I need to try some Fragrances from Chris , i've not got round to trying any Kilian but I'm sure I will do soon as I'm always buying Niche Decants !! 👍
Defo one of my top fragrances love this 💪🏾
Congrats!! Great fragrance:)
great reminder Chris :) i have the sample and didnt smell it a longe time after your video gave it a try and now need to buy a bottle :) cheers janosch
my order of this perfume is arriving tomorrow, cannot wait.
Watching on the big screen mate your enjoyment really came through I have a 10ml of Back to Black and have Rosa Salas Fantome Sombre which is a Black Phantom inspiration and really good will pick up Black Phantom awesome scent 👍🏻
Haha yeah love this one!
Congratulations on your bottle! I have just ordered samples of Black Phantom.,Back to Black and Straight To heaven. pretty sure all are amazing, just trying to find out which one I prefer the most and treat myself for Christmas... would like to try Apple Brandy and Dark Lord too...
Perfect video. I received mine coffretless version a month ago even though I own Dark Knight, which is a flawless rendition. I can relate to what you were saying about purchasing the OG ! ON TO SINGLE MALT!
Beautiful fragrance one of my favourites 👌🏽
I’m a Kilian fans! Love the style of their perfumes. Black Phantom is my favorite from them but my first bottle was Straight to Heaven then the Black Phantom was the second bottle I got. Great choice to start your Kilian journey. I also love Love don’t be Shy and Angels Share. I waited for weeks to get my Angels Share bottle. I adore it a lot!
I felt emotional, such a moment ❤️
Great choice, Chris! Black Phantom is my favorite from the line! I also love Back to Black as well! I just got a sample of Angel's Share in the other day, and I'm definitely looking forward to trying it!
I think I might have to get Angels Share!
@@FRAGMENTAL I'll let you know what I think as soon as I try it! I was going to wear it to work this week, however it decided to go back up into the 70's again! I still may wear it anyway! lol
Love the house! I own Back to Black, Intoxicated and just received Ángels’ Share. Awesome awesome fragrances!!
What is Angels Share like?
Just want someone to look at me the way Chris looks at this bottle😂 proud as punch I love it
I love this reaction. Kilian is my fave French niche house❤
Sounds really interesting chris👌🤔, who in your honest opinion does a good clone of black phantom? Need to get my nose on it, loved your reaction, priceless 😊
Kilian is just amazing! They have so many great fragrances.
Great pick up, beast fragrance!
Congrats on your fist Killian! I haven't smelled anything from the brand, I suppose their image is just not for me, there are other brands that I want to try first. Thanks for the video Chris!
Welcome to the club is amazing fragance, my last purchase was Angels´Share, I hope you enjoy Black Phanton as much as I do.!!! Congrats!!! I like how happy you are.!!
A beautifully elegant choice, Chris. I was fortunate enough to receive the full presentation of Black Phantom As a birthday gift a few years back which in its self sent my interest into perfumery to another level.Interesting to note that the cap and plate on my bottle is silver not gold possibly to match the key and lock of the lacquered box. I’m also extremely interested in Angels Share the note breakdown looks divine and the presentation once again looking like a cut crystalled cognac glass Is beautifully refined.
I'm sure Angels Share won't be far away!
Pulled the trigger, got mine today, and i involuntarily had a moment like yours. Hahaha. Thank you!
Yey! Love this fragrance so much!!! 👍
I love this video very much! Felt exactly the same when got my Rolling in Love. Sampled those by Kilian fragrances a lot, but when finally got a bottle... well. It was just amazing! Right now I'm dreaming of getting Black Phantom, sampled it, but don't have. And glad to see such an honest reaction of unpackaging. I don't feel so strange when I'm opening a new fragrance anymore, haha. Btw, Angels' Share is AMAZING!
Thanks Kristina, looking forward to trying Angels Share!
Awesome, welcome to the Black Phantom Club ☠️ Have also Intoxicated in my collection :) Will get one of those magnetic travel automizers which they started to sell separately
Cracking choice mate, I hope to pick this one up at some point though I wan the coffrette too. Also want single malt and apple brandy. Glad you managed to get it mate,👍🏻🙏🏻
Yeah you would want that Skull being a badass pirate! ARGHHHHH
@@FRAGMENTAL A Tourette’s Pirate you mean?🤣🤣
was guessing right all along! Black Phantom is one of my absolute fav. the boozy Irish coffee smell with prominent almond note is heavenly. in my wishlist for sure. Going through decants.
Chris! Have ordered it, waiting to be gob-smacked upon the first sniff after it’s arrival! Thank you for the video!
🥳 🎉 👏🏽 congrats!
Black Phantom is one of my favourite fragrances ever. I would love to have a bottle but the price... Still I believe one day I get it:) Thank you for the video and all your videos!
Whit that description must be Black Phantom! I love it
Hey Chris great video my friend and seeing your face when yo smelled that so reminded me of when I bought my bottle ,A proud day for us both🙏👌keep safe my friend 🙏
Haha thanks mate. Nice to share that pleasure and satisfaction with you guys.
I got a sample of back to black a month or so back and adore it. The quality and longevity is on another level for me. Need to get my nose on black phantom though - always heard great things!
Nice one 1⃣ Chris, need to try that, currently wearing Straight to heaven, its luxurious, but back to black is my favourite, atb Lee
Black Phantom was also my first By Kilian bottle. Absolutely love this one! I'm looking forward to getting Intoxicated and Musk Oud. Would love it if you did a review on Vodka on the rocks if possible from the sample you've got 😬
Killian Fragrances are in a league of their own! Amazing!
Finley bought this beauty and i understand your feelings man this is just awsome love the smell love the bottle, long lasting 12+ hours on my skin just awsome fragrance 👍👍
You bought the same introduction bottle as I did. Absolute beast of a fragrance. I’ve also recently purchased Moonlight in Heaven but I won’t open it until 2021. 👍🏻
What a scent Chris.... Good choice Mr bond👍
Ive got a decant of black phantom and i came accross insomnia by seferi and martinez which i have to say i bought based on the notes. To my amatuer nose theyve done a fantastic job. Im not sure which one even came first but the insomnia one though is to my nose and on my skin thicker slighly darker still has those beautiful sweet choc and dark rum vibes a stellar of a fragarnce to me and next to my killian decant i honestly cant tell the difference defninitely worth checking out if you like this kind of dna. Great vid as usual chris
This was my first Killian too. Also love Straight to Heaven, Apple Brandy & Back to Black.
Back to Black is funky and strange. It's the Killian DNA of light round chocolate, but with a funky pachouli
I figured that was the one that you got, Chris, considering how you love your sweet frags. You and I are pretty similar in that regard. Great purchase! As far as the clones vs. originals go, for me it is like this: it's based on how far you are willing to go for a fragrance based on budget, affordability, and whether something works on your skin well after testing. And it is based on the original fragrance and if the scent has been reformulated or not. Some people can afford a Kilian and pay $200-300 for one with no issue, but some can't and may only be able to try samples or one of the more affordable clones that are there. Maybe later they can get the genuine article, but for now a certain scent may be good enough.
After being in this a long time, I understand the artistry of perfumery and relish that experience dearly, but I also try to look for value based upon how a fragrance reacts on my skin (and if that scent is glorious) and whether the price justifies that outcome. So if it is in the original perfume, that's great. If it is in an inspiration (if the original is lacking in performance), that's good, too. It's about the value proposition to me. I'm not going to hang a Mona Lisa in a room that wouldn't bring attention to the painting and its level of class (if I could afford it in the first place, lol).
Way to go Chris!
Are you saying you can buy it without the coffin box?
Yes absolutely. It's £40 cheaper.
Been waiting for you to do By Kilian for awhile Chris 👍 I have Back to Black. It’s super expensive to try By Kilian, so I’ll be depending on you to give me input on the best ones good sir 👍🤜😎🔥
Black Phantom is my favorite from the house! Like you I don’t have a full bottle yet but I too will get a bottle or several.
Too sweet!
Bought a sample and couldn't tell the difference to the perfume parlour clone after 20 minutes. Love it and can totally see why you bought the original, but I'm all about adding to my parfum de marly collection. 👍
Black Phantom is very much my Winter Cosy fragrance. Great choice 🖤
Yes! Very cosy and comforting!
Loved the video. Personally By Kilian is by far my favorite niche fragrance house. Black phantom is so good that to tell the truth, back in August while on vacation in Mexico I wore it for the first time at a rainy night. And that was the only time I wore it because two days after that the 2 small samples I had of it were gone. Someone stole them. Now I want a full bottle of it as well as Straight To Heaven. Those two along with Love Don’t Be Shy (which I do own) have gotten me absolutely incredible reactions and compliments from many people specially from my wife. I know who stole my samples and I’m glad that they didn’t steal my full bottle of Love Don’t Be Shy as well
Hi Chris
Great review as always but I have been wondering are you going to be reviewing more of the fragrances from By Kilian?
I have always had an interest in a particular fragrance from the brand called Dark Lord which from what I see from the website had been compared to Gucci Guilty Absolute.
Where I am from, there are no By Kilian fragrances selling anywhere and I was hoping that I could get a comparison and review of By Kilian's fragrances from my favorite Fragrance UA-cam channel.
Hi! New here, already susbribed. I loved your unboxing! Of course you can't compare an original with any clon, and as a fragrance lover you deserved it! I love also this one, almost sure I am going to buy it for my birthday that happens to be today :) kisses
Beast fragrance! What's the difference between the silver and the gold bottle?
Great 📹 and I enjoyed it and I like this fragrance and I give it a 9.5. out 10 and have a blessed day
Got mine coming soon, first Kilian! Yippee. How many sprays do you suggest?
Got my first bottle today after owning several clones and I'm not disappointed love the fragrance plus it's not a fragrance you smell on everyone so it's nice to be different
my first Kilian was bamboo harmony , really proud of that purchase , even if it wasn't the typical first Kilian purchase
I love this fragrance, it’s by far my favorite from this house, I recommend if you love this to try Valentino Uomo Noir Absolu, I promise you’ll love it!
I just purchased black phantom, angels share and rolling in love! Absolutely love Kilian ❤️
I absolutely love rolling in love, i need to purchase myself a bottle, what kind of longevity and sillage would you say you get from it?
It’s amazing love the dry down so much! On me it last at least 6 hours and projects pretty well but I am an over sprayer 🤷🏻♀️ lol
@@marsanphotoful Ahh that's pretty good, when you say over sprayer, how many sprays would you do in total? like how many on neck, clothes etc? As i'm a over sprayer aswell haha
Kilian is my favourite fragrance brand I’m guessing as I have the most from them in my collection. To me they are the best for boozy gourmand type scents. My favourite is straight to heaven extreme but single malt is a close second place 🙂
One of the best Chris. Kilian is the best frag house imo. Try Dark Lord... gorgeous leather scent.... but if you test, easy on the sprayer 😉 take care mate.. keep up the good work 👍🏻
"Up in the loft" . Pleased I'm not the only one. Greeting from Durham
Bingpot!! I guessed correct! Love Black Phantom, definitely will be my second bottle from Killian! Excellent choice 💥
Ah what was your first?
@@FRAGMENTAL just picked up Angels Share 🥃
I guessed Black Phantom! When I first heard about it, I knew I would like it. Sadly have not had the chance to try it out, yet. But Christmas is coming up and I think I should treat myself a bit ...
Great choice, dark, chocolaty , dirty, but cant compare it really. Your your taste is impeccable, definitely in the room with you - keep it up!
Thanks Stermy
This and another one are in my wish list, but have never smelled them. Have to either check them out in a store before, or order small samples.
amazing fragrance… next level
I was to lazy to stop the video and comment but I guessed Black Phantom! Wohooo! I would buy that one too!
I received my bottle of Black Phantom yesterday. It is such a nice fragrance.
Congratz with B F😊👏
My faveorit is "Love ~ Dont be shy" ..❤
Don't own a botlle..
YET!
I got my first Killian today.. Black Phantom as well. It's unlike any frag in my collection and was my favorite of the bottles I sampled at Saks.
Oh that is a sweeet bottle!! (And I guessed the right one.) I'm waiting for some fragrances from Perfume Parlour I ordered last week. One is their version of this one ;o) And thanx for the discount!! [Edit: Bad grammar]
Black phantom was my first Kilian too. Now I have Black phantom, Back to black and Intoxicated. They are all wonderful.
Hey Chris! Love from India! How is the performance of the newer bottles? Stronger/Weaker/Same as older bottles? Thank you in advance for your opinion.
The minute 6:22 is the greatest minute in the history of perfumery, it is undoubtedly the best gourmand fragrance reaction i’ve ever seen
Your done for now chris. Kilian is addicting. Black phantom is what you bought. Kilian was in New York city Monday. He signed a bottle of rolling in love and I bought it =).
I adore this scent and this video is so timely because I'm debating of whether to buy the bottle...this will be my first Kilian bottle as well. The only thing stopping me is that I can't smell this on me a few minutes after spraying 🥺
Ah that's a shame. I find it lasts a while for me.
Black Phantom, Awesome! I haven't sampled it yet. The Kilian bottles definitely are high class and in a category of their own, and they're refillable! I absolutely Love the house. Just curious, when I finally wore Back To Black I noticed the spray was more of a stream as opposed to a mist. Is yours the same?
My sprayer seems good 🤷♂️
I bought black phantom over a month ago because I’ve used all of it in such a short time, among my fragrances I have this is the best one I absolutely love this fragrance it’s so sexy dark and luxurious, I’m gonna get it refilled today
I can understand being a collector that you wanted the original. For me, I have smelled it side by side with Dark Knight and they smell the same, Dark Knight having a longer duration. It is still one of my favourite fragrance, and one of the best clone from Alexandria fragrances..... do not really need to spend that money on a Killian when the juice I already have smells identical and last longer on my skin. Happy for your acquisition ... enjoy.
Ive got both as well, and totally agree. Dark Knight is a superb clone. 95% the same.
Absolutely love this fragrance, unfortunately it didn’t perform well on my skin- always worth sampling before you buy !
Hey Chris! I don’t own any Killian fragrances, but if I did, the first bottle I would buy is Black Phantom. So, that’s my guess for what’s in the box for you. Going to finish watching and see if I’m right...👍
I was right! Great minds think alike! Great video as usual, be well man. 👍
Jon influence you?😂, Congratulations on the new addition 😍😍
Haha thanks Miya
Black Phantom!
The three Kilians i own and absolutely love are Black Phantom, Straight to heaven extreme and Angels share... Love the way Kilian is doing the boozy thang!! But i must say that Black Phantom is my favorite of the three. Still on my list are Love dont be shy, good girl gone bad extreme, woman in gold and rolling in love.... Congrats on your first real bottle of Kilian!!
Black Phantom is also my first one. It is packed under the X-mas tree. It is my wife's present for Christmas but which I bought. I am not allowed to test it yet. It will be a real surprise.
Well. I have just bought 2 partial bottles of this, one like yours gold plaque gold cap and my other is all black. sprayed them on each wrist and the black is darker deeper and richer. low and behold the black is the original and gold is a reformation apparently.
have you tried the all black bottle Chris?
thoughts?
