Chanel Egoiste is in my top 5 of all time. I have a bottle from the late 90’s and it just shines! Has the lovely dusty sandalwood drydown that can’t be beat!
HYPE ALERT! I've owned Trumper Sandalwood (plus Paisley) and enjoyed but not 'loved' them as comforting 'old school' style scents. However I sampled their brand new release 'Mayfair' and was BLOWN AWAY! Out in the cold air the sillage was truly amazing!! AC would love you to review it for your impression - no-one seems to have discovered it yet! Could be a true hype beast! Your channel is fantastic btw!
Another great video AC 👏 I aways appreciate how your descriptions bring the fragrance to life. Sandalwood is my favorite note because I personally find its qualities mature and soothing. Keep up the great work and stay safe AC!
Hello AC, great review! I’ve had Trumpers sandalwood for many years now and absolutely love it, especially at this time of year. Btw my son is in his 20 and he loves it too. I’ll have to try out Egoiste, at some point 👌🏼
Having tried both I decided to buy Trumper as I like 50ml for travel. That being said nothing beats Chanel's note of sandalwood...GFT says their sandalwood oil is from Mysore btw but I think Chanel's execution of that note is impeccable. From ur old GFT review I pulled it out in the summer and loved it...winter now in Israel and still a stunner.
Hello AC. You hit a sweet spot with me with that Chanel. Always has been and always will be one of my favorites. Going to have to give that Trumper a try. Thanks for the video and be safe.
Great comparison video AC. Absolutely love égoïste. I had been looking to get platinum egoist for some time and of course your videos drove me to get égoïste instead, and what a beauty. As for performance, kid you not, I wear 2 sprays to work and not heavy sprays, and about mid day, I’d say about good 3-4 hours after spraying, one of my coworker, standing across the room about good 10 feet minimum, was saying she can smell the sandalwood lol.
AC, interesting and educational comparison vid. I don’t own either of them yet but have tested both and like both! Was thinking to myself earlier this eve that I really must get round to pick up the Trumper and you put this vid out! I guess it’s meant to be! Ta! 🍂
Thanks for this great vid, AC. I wear my modern formulation Egoiste to work during coldest weather; one of my fav Chanels. Though I do prefer a hated resurrection of the sharper, fuller, more textured vintage version, pains me to say, I could only wear the modern to my work. I hope to finally order the Trumper this month; will go good with my Paisleys and Euchris. While I choose both, thanks again for doing your thing. I can't wait to wear the Trumper!
AC you are a man with refined taste, and since today's topic is sandalwood I would like to draw your attention to something different. I want to suggest two sandalwood aftershaves which are really good to finish your shaving, and quite inexpensive also. I am talking about Proraso red and sandalo from Extro cosmesi. Give them a try.
@@ACSmellsGood i really enjoied, and honestly i hope to see more of your "classics" videos, you can be very balanced and objective in the reviews, congrats! good job!
AC i am like you fan of sandalwood love it in any form synthetic & natural both the fragrances in UAE is hard to get hold of one is expensive (CE) and trumper hard to find.
I was gifted Chanel Egoiste and Chanel Antaeus in 1994. I love and use them to this day. Do you like Antaeus i seam to like this more powerful scent. Balenciaga is my all time favorite! Thanks AC.
Always on point AC, I bought al layl by my perfumes based on your recommendation and it's amazing. Please could you do a comparison video between Estee Lauder Amber Mystique and Frederic malle Portrait of a lady. Thanks for the review.
Excited to see ur videos as usual, it brings so much joy 😃 Heard that Costume National HOMME EDP & Parfum versions are very good mixture of Egoiste & GFT. Have you ever tried CN HOMME sir?
Way to break those notes down AC. I purchased a vintage splash bottle, 2.5oz of Egoiste last year. I will enjoy the Fragrances I have for a while as u suggested. Thank you
When I first smelled egoiste in 1992 I got mesmereized.The first imression on me wearing it, it was like dry figs.That was the perfume that got me mad about fragrance .That scent of figs stayed in my mind for decades.since then I`ve smelled thousand perfumes,but nothing beats egoiste.Its olfactory porn
Having used Trumper shaving creams which are top notch, I watched your review on the Trumper Sandalwood and on the strength of that I bought some. I'm so glad I did. Its fantastic PS Is that Desert Orchid in the picture above your right shoulder?
Sorry I know this is a older video, I love trumpers sandlewood but I'm interested in the egoist, I wanted to ask which version you refer to the L EGOISTE?
Since I already own Tam Dao (a woody and creamy sandalwood EDP) by Dyptique, I think I'll buy Sandalwood Cologne; which I really love. Do you agree, A.C. ?
Hi AC, great review as always 👍👍👍 Another subscriber here from Indonesia I just want to ask 1 thing : Do middle eastern perfume have the clone for this vintage Chanel Egoiste (I just bought the reformulation at chanel and it is in different realm with the vintage 😢) Please help 🙏
Wow thank you my friend, I do not get many viewers from Indonesia so I am well chuffed. I wish I knew if there was a clone of Egoiste mate, but I don't know if there is.
@@ACSmellsGood Many thanks for your response AC 🙏 Ok then i'll save more money to get this Geo F Trumper, this is a very important info for my fragrance journey. Many thanks AC for this chanel, give me lots of perspective on fragrance, the best 👍👍👍
Tesla was completely right. Greed and the love of money will always kill off any instances of creativity and benefit to mankind. The oil barons had a hit out on Elon Musks life, he had to go public to save his own hide.
@@uleertel Power corrupts...and Musk has a LOT of power. I fear, he may one day become as horrible as the Oil Barons that control a majority of the worlds direction currently...
Chanel Egoiste is in my top 5 of all time. I have a bottle from the late 90’s and it just shines! Has the lovely dusty sandalwood drydown that can’t be beat!
I e got a 1991 bottle and I’m looking to buy the original French release called bois noir which was the original egoiste with all natural ingredients

Thanks for the tip on Mayfair my friend, I will see if I can get a sample.
Im looking to get this but it will be blind,so whats it smell like please and what more could you tell me about it please.
Came for the comparison discussion.
Loved the opening quote as well as the fragrance content!
Thank you, delighted to hear that :).
Great video and I enjoyed it and I like Chanel Egoiste and I'm going to try Trumper Sandlewood Cologne and have a blessed day
Thank you Michael.
You welcome keep up the good work
Outstanding comparison...yep, they're two of my very favorite sandalwood scents. Love 'em both but for different reasons. Spot-on, Cheers!
Thank you Jim, and so good to see you my friend :)
Another great video AC 👏 I aways appreciate how your descriptions bring the fragrance to life. Sandalwood is my favorite note because I personally find its qualities mature and soothing. Keep up the great work and stay safe AC!
Thank you Jose, glad to hear you enjoyed :)
Bought my first bottle of Egoiste last year, love this fragrance.
Hello AC, great review! I’ve had Trumpers sandalwood for many years now and absolutely love it, especially at this time of year. Btw my son is in his 20 and he loves it too.
I’ll have to try out Egoiste, at some point 👌🏼
Wow I am impressed to hear that Rene. Please try Egoiste if you get a chance.
Looking sharp AC 👌 Egoiste is a masterpiece, as yet I haven't had the pleasure of experiencing GFT's Sandlewood cologne, think I need to 👍
Thank you Steve, and I hope you get to try GFT too.

From ur old GFT review I pulled it out in the summer and loved it...winter now in Israel and still a stunner.
I am so happy to hear that my friend, and I agree GFT is very versatile.
Hello AC. You hit a sweet spot with me with that Chanel. Always has been and always will be one of my favorites. Going to have to give that Trumper a try. Thanks for the video and be safe.
Oh wow! glad to hear you love Egoiste so much.
Nearly everybody says your name in their comments. Haha I find that quite interesting. I enjoy your videos. Take care.
haha indeed, I am well loved and I am very grateful for that.
First came across egoiste while rummaging through my moms sample stash, was completely blown away.
Haha I can imagine.
Excellent comparison, love them both.
Glad to hear that buddy :)
Great review! I have them both; works ok even here in tropical Jamaica. Really classy and as you say..exudes taste of the wearer.
Glad to hear that Colin :)
Hello A.C,greetings from Melbourne,Australia.l have the trumper sandalwood.lts an amazing fragrance.
Hello mate, I am sure you are looking forward to Spring while we drag our heels into Autumn :)

I can totally see that Hassan, women have a terrfic nose for fragrances.

haha what a coincidence mate, this is perfect weather top wear that GFT.
Great video need a full sandalwood list
After I have ahd a chance to review all the great sandalwoods I shall do a list for sure :)
Thanks for this great vid, AC. I wear my modern formulation Egoiste to work during coldest weather; one of my fav Chanels.

I am yet to try Eucris Michael, but I am hoping to do so soon. I am glad to hear you like both of these.
Fantastic Review 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Great vis as always A.C. They are both so good I own both in my collection,. 👌
Awesome Ken! same as me :)
AC i am like you fan of sandalwood love it in any form synthetic & natural both the fragrances in UAE is hard to get hold of one is expensive (CE) and trumper hard to find.
Yes, Chanel can be expensive :)
I was gifted Chanel Egoiste and Chanel Antaeus in 1994. I love and use them to this day. Do you like Antaeus i seam to like this more powerful scent. Balenciaga is my all time favorite! Thanks AC.
i love Balenciaga too and will review that soon, not a big fan of antaeus.

Thank you and sure I will see if I can get a sample of POL.
Excited to see ur videos as usual, it brings so much joy 😃
Heard that Costume National HOMME EDP & Parfum versions are very good mixture of Egoiste & GFT.
Have you ever tried CN HOMME sir?
I havent tried those two yet buddy.
Way to break those notes down AC. I purchased a vintage splash bottle, 2.5oz of Egoiste last year. I will enjoy the Fragrances I have for a while as u suggested. Thank you
Wow! you are very lucky to have experienced the vintage my friend.

hahah Olfactory Porn! This has to be the best comment I have read in a long time :)
I love Egoïste. It seems that Platinum Egoïste is more popular nowadays, at least in the fragcom, but the original is more to my taste.
The original Egoiste is very special indeed.
Very impressive review. How do they compare with Truefitt Sandalwood if you have tried it?
Thank you Brad, I haven't tried the Trufitt yet.
I love both.
Having used Trumper shaving creams which are top notch, I watched your review on the Trumper Sandalwood and on the strength of that I bought some.
I'm so glad I did. Its fantastic
PS
Is that Desert Orchid in the picture above your right shoulder?
Ima fan 😊
Sorry I know this is a older video, I love trumpers sandlewood but I'm interested in the egoist, I wanted to ask which version you refer to the L EGOISTE?
Not a problem, I try and reply to all my messages, this is an EDT.
Since I already own Tam Dao (a woody and creamy sandalwood EDP) by Dyptique, I think I'll buy Sandalwood Cologne; which I really love.
Do you agree, A.C. ?
i totally agree.
Hi sir BIG fan of you sir i suggests you to review on Racasi perfume blue for man 2 it is very good and long lasting perfume try that. 😀😀
Thank you Ahmed, I will see if I can get a sample.

Thanks, AC. How would you compare Chanel Egoiste Vs Costume National Homme Parfum?
I haven't tried CN Homme yet my friend.
@@ACSmellsGood Ahh I see :)
My friend, is Platinum Egoist quite different from Egoist?
Cheers
very different, I have reviewed that one mate.
Fellas👍
Tesla was completely right. Greed and the love of money will always kill off any instances of creativity and benefit to mankind.
The oil barons had a hit out on Elon Musks life, he had to go public to save his own hide.
But talking about greed, Musk is the worst. He is using manpower like disposable items for his own ambition, look at articles on SpaceX management....
@@uleertel Power corrupts...and Musk has a LOT of power. I fear, he may one day become as horrible as the Oil Barons that control a majority of the worlds direction currently...
Nikola Tesla. Not to be confused with Musk's Tesla car company.
Trumper has ‘real sandlewood’ and it smells a lot like the original chanel release bois noir which was renamed egoiste and cheapened
