    I really looked forward to this, I hope you like it, I don't even dare read the comments yet :D when i was new, i got cow barn from this..not anymore, but i wish i did. update: glad you now have a more nuanced impression of xerjoff. i myself rediscovered my amouage discovery box exactly a week ago, and i turned from "hating" (misunderstanding) amouage like i did as a beginner. / Andreas from Sweden

    Great video! This used to be one of my favorite fragrances from Xerjoff, but, as i got older, and my life changed, my taste changed a little bit and now i am gravitating towards other scents. I heard in one of your videos that you use the word masterpiece rarely, which i think it's suitable for just a couple of fragrances on the market and i appreciated that, your reviews are very interesting and personal. I would be very curious to see a video from you talking about the fragrances from your collection that you really believe are masterpieces! Keep up the good work!

    Sorry about not being around. Been going crazy catching up with all these TV series.
    Do you know about Russian Adam's release tomorrow?
    It's his oud collection. Not sure if there will be single bottles,
    but the sets are sure for tomorrow.
    I've been really good lately, buttttttttt.
    I've worn his work a few times lately, and the way they've matured is unquestionably the best.
    I think some of his lesser-cost ones are going to go quickly.
    So, I'm prepared.
    I've sampled a few from the Oud Star line.
    Back then, interesting. Now, why bother.
    Hope your weekend is going well my friend.
    Just wanted to give you the heads up on RA
    Heading out.
    TTYS.

    Great breakdown Ramsey. This is only jerkoff I’ve sampled. All I remember is that I smelled poop on top of Mugler Alien (jasmine and cashmeran.)Alien also gives me a tobacco in the sillage. I don’t think I like cashmeran though perhaps I should try the Malle you mentioned to be sure.

    Hi , Ramsey . Great video as always. My SOTD is also a Roja. Roja PDLN no 1 which happens to be my favorite of the PDLN line. And yeah this is a decant coz as you say😂 not worth the retail. Ill try to snatch a bottle on the secondary market or a partial one. Cheers

    • @RamseytheRam
      @RamseytheRam  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      PDLN 1 reminds me a bit of Tom Ford Amber Absolute in the dry down

    • @Sami-mp6xd
      @Sami-mp6xd ปีที่แล้ว

      Never tried it, i do however own TF tobacco oud and i can pick alot of similarities between them. Especially the booze 🥃 but i find the Roja more animalic but in a good way.

    • @RamseytheRam

      Russian Adam also agreed to join the channel one day soon after I get a chance to get to know the new collection.
      So its coming but it will be a bit still as I am still waiting for it to arrive and then I have to get to know the collection myself.
      Thanks for your interest and patience... it is coming soon 🤌🤌🤌

    This is one of my favorites from the oud line, maybe my favorite even. Xerjoff is a house I enjoy (talking about fragrance wise), but I don't like all the luxury bullshit around it, like I don't like the same topic on other brands, Roja, Fragrance du bois, etcetc, it's priced to be seen has luxurious and only that, some the quality of ingredients are mediocre at best, not to mentioning the non stop increasing price, the average price of a fragrance is roundly around 50% more then just a few years ago (yeah, we can blame covid, war, etc, but when the price of materials start dropping I don't see brands decreasing their prices)
