EDT but lasts forever, they use the word "intense" after that so i assume its just below EDP %

Thanks for watching, got 1 more Creed review coming at the end of the year!! 😊

Not at all unfortunately, completely different DNA altogether. They should just rename it at this point too.

@@FragranceFiend oh ok thanks was thinking of getting it as its on sale at cw but i guess ill just skip it cheers

@@OnAeeir definitely let yourself be the judge of it too! if you like it deffs go for it, it may not be what it once was but i wouldn't say there's anything too subjectively wrong with it. it is a pretty good discount though! 😁

@@FragranceFiend i dont live that close to a chemist warehouse so i was gonna have to blind buy it online but if it doesnt even really smell like fierce anymore then idk

@@OnAeeir ohhh okay, sorry to hear, id probably pass on it then i guess 🤔

Agreed, very accurate description now that i thinbk about it! and thank you so much for your kind words, truly means a lot. 🙂

Unfortunately ive had a bit of a bad run with first impressions as of late haha! thank you so much for watching though, ill deffs have to get my nose on those by the sounds of it!!!

After smelling the rest of the lineup, they've become a big flop to my nose unfortunately!

So glad you like it! Definitely unique which is what I appreciate about it most!

That’s fair! I’ve rarely gotten my nose on recent batches, what clones would you suggest?

@@FragranceFiend Rasasi Egra hands down lasts forever on clothes and it's like 7 hours on skin longest lasting of GIT clones.

@@LequipeTechnique not available locally to me sadly, I'll have to track it down one day!

@@LequipeTechnique Sounds incredible, thanks so much for the insight!

I’ve grown to it even more in recent months and it’s definitely climbed up my list!

Congrats!! Hope you like it :)

$384 AUD 😄

@@FragranceFiendthank you

I was pleasantly surprised with Centaurus!! An impressive left turn from the brand but definitely in the right direction. May have to get it eventually 👌🏻

Yeah unfortunately even getting my nose in Geurlan here is hard enough, and the selection is incredibly small. Let me know what you think!

Wow that’s incredible, I’d love to know really how different it is from the current batches. Apparently there are some clones of the original formulation but I’ve never been impressed by them. Really just want them to release the original DNA again.

Sorry about the loss of your sense of smell, Hope it fully recovers again one day!

Thanks so much, appreciated 😊

Thanks so much! Yeah that became the inspiration behind creating the channel, I loved watching reviews but just grew so tired of them that they seemed more about getting clicks, promoting certain brands (or being paid to), getting to the 10min mark to get on the algorithm ect. I just wanna give my humble 2 cents to the right people without screaming hyper beast mode panty dropper every 5 seconds. Much appreciated!

Thanks Christopher! Will be reviewing the rest of TLY lineup individually soon too 😄

That’s actually insane!!! So good. I just filmed a review of Halloween Mystery? Have you tried that one yet?

@@FragranceFiend No not yet, however after getting X want to try them all. I see your Mystery review is upcoming on my yt feed. Can't wait for that one! Love unique style of your channel, def deserve way more views and subs.

@@HOTSPEEDMike Thank you so much for the kind words! really does mean a lot :) its definitely been a slower than expected climb, i saw a fragrance channel created a week ago that already has 100 subs (which took me about half a year), others for a few months have thousands. I like having a small community but my style probs doesnt fit as well into the algorithm or perhaps other youtubers get boosted since so many are paid to promote certain companies haha. Glad you liked X, Mystery doesn't beat it unfortunately!

😝

Love to hear it!! it’s a very impressively structured fragrance despite it not being something I’d usually wear 😊

I've been wanting to try this one!!!

definitely keen to do a review on that! I think it’s my second favourite floral from Le labo, first being fleur d’oranger

Worth a smell!

Bahahahah yeah it’s a reasonable choice for those who wanna save a fair dollar, I’ve smelt a lot worse from brands that charge 2x more than authentic. Confidence has been my go to gym scent as I kept pushing back the release of this video!

Awesome hearing back from ya regarding that! It’s a shame such a terrific dna has beeen tarnished, maybe one day we’ll get it back. Treasuring my current bottles for now!!

Haha great questions but I love doing more abstract reviews opposed to the stuff everyone else does 😆. Of course I have to do the occasional top seller but this month there’s been a lot of newness so it’s always interesting to see where perfume trends. + it’s easier to score new release samples for free at local retailers (usually if you ask kindly) 😇. I maybe only buy samples once every few months only if I’m extremely interested.

Thanks so much CY!!! I still havnt gotten my nose on them yet as I’m contemplating between doing a blind first impression or full length review but I have heard positive things about them so far!

Oh awesome I’ll have to check it out! Thanks so much for the kind words 😄

I believe I have a sample lurking somewhere!! I think I loved it from memory but will deffs love to do a review on more initio! Especially Mystic Experience

That’s what counts! Glad you ended up enjoying it 😊

Thanks Joe! First ever title change to test the algorithm hahha. Only thing I refuse to ever do is clickbait titles though!

Definitely falls into a very similar category but I feel Herod is sweeter and not as much spice. The variation is mostly in the tobacco while Centaurus is a lot more resinous and a hint earthy, it also feels the slightest bit darker in contrast to my nose too (judging off the last time I smelt Herod a year ago)! 🙂 I liked Herod but much prefer Centaurus actually

@@FragranceFiend thanks for the deep explanation

sounds incredible! I'll go on the hunt for it, Kilian has only just entered the market in my entire state and the only store that sells it has a very limited offering so i hope they'll have it. +T hank you so much for watching, I appreciate the kind words. take care! 🙂

Absolutely I’d love to! I did film the tobacco collection but I think the files got corrupted when I transferred everything to my new editing PC unfortunately! I may have to refilm. Some of their dupes are pretty close but will deffs have to re-educate myself with their lineup 😊

Was about to asked why I couldn't find the review for "Smoke" lol Great review as always!

Appreciated! One of many reasons I do this is for my honesty after growing tired of youtubers glazing over everything, especially when they're paid or gifted to promote it half the time. Thank you for watching!

I still need to get my nose on Back to Black 😳

Thank you it’s such an honour to hear that! + I’d love to, definitely considering Molecule 01, I own eccentric 01 and would have to source a sample of 04 😊

Incredible!!! Absolutely love hearing stories like that, that’s what fragrance is all about to me. Connection to scents is something special unlike anything else when they can evoke strong memories like that. 😊

The scents themself are both very different however the technology "headspace technology" is kinda the inspiration behind the addictive arts series. Ecstatic is lighter, minty floral. Hedonistic is more centered around the Tabacco note, i may do a review on it soon actually 😁

My accent or tone? 💀

I’ve always been scared of buying Le labo online or from 3rd party sources, it seems to be such a counterfeited brand since the bottles appear easy enough to fraudulently reproduce and when I see them on eBay for $150 (despite positive account ratings) you rather buy from an authorised retailer or from the brand themself. It’s also super easy to rip the top off them and dilute them!

@@FragranceFiend so, is it means better to go in Berlin? :)

@@apocalypseae Haha sure would make a nice holiday too and make the fragrance extra special!
