This need a Part 2 video.
There will be a part two!
Thanks so much for watching & commenting 😊
Ditto the part 2 👍👍
I need to catch up on your videos. I have been busy lately. But this is great! I have Lapidus, Lauder for men and Zino. I want to get the others. Totally agree with this list and can't wait for part two.
Thanks so much Justin .. totally agree ... 3 all time greats you got there mate even in the modern version 👍
It is amazing how often the modern versions have held their beauty. All of the Caron masculines are quite good.
It is so good to see you Kathryn ... completely agree and some of the Carons are still great in their current form & you will see one or two in the next few videos from this series.
Thanks so much for watching & commenting & I love seeing you in the comments 😊
Ok now this is a concept I love for a new series! Modern fragrances can be an ocean of mediocre blue crap to navigate but damn it, classic fragrances can be an ocean of watered down mothball water. I'd love a guide on which ones are worth getting today, vintage hunting is just not my cup of tea, had too many duds early on.
Well that is the whole reason I decided to dp this series Top Lad... so I appreciate your feedback & support and there will be another video in a week or two from this series 🤌🤌🤌
Throwback to memory lane. Thanks, for bringing those back to life.
Ted Lapidus was my signature scent for a solid 2 years
My pleasure! Thanks so much for watching & commenting 🍻
Really interested to try that Stories collection from Lapidus now. You know the ones in the Berdoues bottles? Supreme Desire and Sensual Hero at the top of the list. Won't lie....Wild Attraction might be a take on Layton, but even that one would be worth trying if they've still got their game on. If you can somehow grab a sample set Ramsey, you're the one I would absolutely trust with the impressions. 🙏
I will put it on the list... thanks for the rec and the kind words my friend 🤌🤌🤌
I wore Zino last week, new formulation, and you're right, it's amazing. And just today, I received Animale Animale and will wear it tomorrow. The other I picked up earlier this week is Bogart Pour Homme, again, amazing. So good to hear your in-depth reviews of these fragrances. I'm ordering Lapidus Pour Homme tonight, can't wait to wear it too!
Call you butter because you are on a roll 🤣
LOL, thanks!@@RamseytheRam
Great episode. Some new stuff and good tips an Antaeus. I’m really interested in Rose Cuir now. Was a big fan of Ellena’s Rose Poivre back in the day.
You should check it out fot sure ... a beautiful green floral with fruity Blackcurrant & "leather" ... a really elusive fragrance for some but I love the stuff.. it is one of my favorite Ellena frags along with Bel Ami Vetiver & Cuir d'Ange 😊
I recently bought the current version of Animale for women and it’s still gorgeous! There’s a parfum version that I had no idea existed too. The women’s version is a floral chypre with a heavy dose of civet.
Really?! 🤔
Sounds like something I might enjoy as I like animalic frags... thanks so much for watching & commenting & for the rec 😊
@@RamseytheRam I'm tempted to try Animale Animale now, it's sounds amazing!
@@Action_Slacks it actually is especially if you are fan of Vintage A*Men like I am 🙃
I have the modern Lapidus, and it is potent.
I like it too. Good stuff.
Yes the modern lapidus is amazing Eddie...Vintage aint to shabby either 🍻
Great video i just picked up lapidus ph last week, instant love, love zino too, might check out the other ones
Yeah Zino and Lapidus are loves for sure...but if you havent smelled Heritage & Animale Animale you are in for a treat 🤌🤌🤌
+1 on Lapidus and I lived through the 80s with some pretty cool designer scents and just bought this one (current version) recently...it is worthy. Wish I could find a new version of Van Cleef & Arpels Pour Homme, that does not cost a fortune. Subscribed!
Welcome to the RamFam
Giorgio Beverly Hills for Men is a good one here. I tried a 2018 bottle and it's excellent.
Yes one of my all time favorite honey patchouli frsgs...so smooth
Great no hype honest old school review my friend thanks for not selling out also thanks for the perfume history lesson Im ready to purchase heritage tomorrow thanks for the tip sounds like a Manley fragrance will keep you posted on what I think about it soon . God Bless !!
Thanks so much David... appreciate the support brother😊
Do let me know which one you get the EDT or the EDP 🍻
Dear 🐏, what a great initiative. Current Lauder and Heritage EDT ara truly great frangrances and can easily go unoticed due to not carrying 3 digit prices. This is great public service my friend.
Pulling the trigger on Animale Animale after this. Quorum is def not for me, but I can see it being hugely loved by many.
If there's more iterations of this "pilot", would love to get your impressions on Coriandre by Jean Couturier - I smelled this decades ago from my grandmother and current EDT is so amazing I would appreciate some perspective on this.
Thank you my friend. It is very much appreciated. Yes there will be more episodes in this series as long as I can continue to find vintage frags that are still good even in their current formulation.
Although I will say if you buy the current Heritage or Zino and love it I would still rec hunting down the vintage of some of these as they are just amazing. 🤌🤌🤌
Heritage EDT is as good as you say it is. I am going to try Lapidus Pour Homme. I have been enjoying a lot of these vintage fragrances lately. Thanks for highlighting these classics, sir!
Once you go vintage! You don't go back 😅
Thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
Thanks, Ramsey. Never heard about Lauder for men before. Will definitely going to try it. Sounds really interesting for my nose 😊.
Yes do Try and it and report back! Rumor is Lauder won't be making it for much longer so get it now while you can 💪🐏
Bro!! Animale Animale is so beautifully done. The pineapple is so poppy, such a pleasure to wear..at 200ml for $35?! Cha Ching
Yes spot on... i love it
Man, I just got a sample of vintage JP Sublime and now I'm in my house like "where is my wife" but I live alone and I have never been married haha, beautiful perfume, but no way I could pull this one off!
I bought bunch of mini bottles of vintage guerlains too, hope they arrive soon and also got recently 8ml of Bel Ami and it's a great blue collar work scent, I might have to buy a bigger bottle. Thank's for introducing these great frags and thank's for the video, much appreciated!
I love Sublime ... its not as feminine as you might think at first... its such a beautiful chypre
Bel Ami is one of my favorite perfumes of all time 💪🐏
Amazing stuff...I have all of these except Lauder.I agree with Lapidus pour homme...it's a monster powerhouse...I love those perfumes because they're statement makers,stuff from different era,but stil so good.And how they're making them so cheap??I encountered Lapidus pH first time in in 1992.And I love Guerlain Coriolan.Another underrated gem.
I love Coriolan too but its long discontinued.... thanks so much for watching & commenting Robert 🍻
@@RamseytheRam anytime:)👍👍
I love your last 2 minute rant. Just perfect. You go Ramsey. 💯
Thanks so much for watching & for the support Michael 🍻
I have Zino, Ted Papidus Pour Homme and Heritage...great stuff.
Amazing stuff indeed... thanks so much for watching & commenting 💪🐏
I absolutely agree with you about modern Kouros. I wore Kouros in the 80's as a teen. It was amazing! Last year I bought a modern version. Wow, the vintage blows away the current one. I was disappointed with how it smells. TLPH is much better than current Kouros.
Btw, is Lauder for Men(current version) similar to Cerutti 1881? I would imagine it's better. I'm ok with 1881.
The modern 1881 is more citrusy ... i prefer Lauder for Men
@@RamseytheRam Thanks!
Part 2 needed. Funny thing is I got into the vintage perfumes recently, and got the pineward testers as well, 38 of them I guess.
Also, Heritage is my favorite winter scent. Bought it back in 2012-13, vintage EDP bottle, still have like 10ml left for special occasions. Hence all this recent love for lapidus, lauder, drakkar and oscar de la renta/grey flannel. Recent perfumes just dont give it to me, and niche is too expensive.
@1msorry1 thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
I would say a lot of people would relate to such topic. Newbies wanna know stuffs fast. Good work sir. 👍👌
Thanks Syl...totally agree with you & hope this video helps people 😊
Wow 👏🏼 and I wanted to ask this question, what else is worth to buy now 👏🏼 is there any more ?!?
Let me think on making a part II 😂😂😂
Hope you have been well Allie 🍻
@@RamseytheRam Yeeeeessss pleeeeeeease 🙏🏼😝 I know you are busy man 🫣 with all this samples 🖤
excellent new concept 🐏🦆
Thank you brother... excellent find today on your unboxing 🤤
🐏🦆
new? lol No one done this video before then.......!!!! lol All good ;)
@@finerthings46 new for the Ram Channel 🐏
Never heard of ANIMALE ANIMALE before Sebastian did a review. Had to get one.
Animale animale for men is amazing & well worth the 20 bucks a bottle i paid for it 😁
Cool vid Ramsey there arent many that performs the same in years past. 👍😎
Once they took out the real oak moss they pretty much neutered them.😉
Yeah I totally agree ... but for the people asking for this video and where to get good "Vintage Fragrances" that are still good in their modern form, these are a good 5 to start with and then they can dig deeper if they want to take the next step and go for the deep vintage 😊
I grab another two bottles of Lapidus! It is already my favourite scent !
😂😂😂
Glad to hear it Saimon... thanks for watching & commenting 😊
Very welcomed video once again, very possibly with this selection one could spend a life and always smell classy and special. If there is no second chapter it's fine, no need to stretch after your first choice. Of course, everyone has their choices and Honourable Mentions🏆.
I was also very pleased with Bogart's Signature and Loewe pour Homme.
Rockstar Ramsey Channel!
From Saigon with admiration. 🐃🙏
Great call there John....there will be a part two & jacques Bogart signature will be on the list🍻
This would be an amazing series of videos. I love 70’s and 80’s vintage scents but it’s hard to know what you’re getting on eBay etc. more please!
Hard to keep going as I dont stumble upon many of these vintage frags in modern formulations that are worth it often... but I will try to keep this video idea front of mind 🤌🤌🤌
Happy to say I have all 5, non-vintage ones. :)
Great modern frags 4 sure ... thanks so much for watching & commenting 😁
Hah!! I just bought replacement bottles of "Zino" and "Animale Animale" today!!
I'm good to go for another year or so!
Gotta pick up another backup bottle of "Bijan" next week... 😁
All great buys my friend... thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
Awesome work my brother.
Thanks for the support as always Andy 🍻
I have a question. So I went to that perfume shop by my house again and they had some cool stuff. I got a bottle of lagerfeld cologne,.well,it dose not say lagerfeld classic or lagerfeld cologne. It says lagerfeld eau de cologne. No classic,but not just cologne. Anyway it smells really good. Paid 7$ for a 30mil. I got a set of Stetson splash with Stetson and Stetson black and Stetson caliber all in one package, plus the older style splash bottle 100 ml of Stetson. And I got a old splash bottle of English letter. All under 10 bucks. And I got a bottle of boss number one. I can't find the batch code for the boss number one but it's has a sprayer not a splash. I smelt it once before briefly in the newer version and I'm pretty sure this is at least a little bit older than that one because it smells way skankier and animalic. I love it. A new favorite! I got a Giorgio Beverly hills something in a black bottle but it doesn't say the actual name I'll have to research it. Also got another bottle of Oscar de la Renta pour Lui for 6 bucks. A 50 mil. It's not vintage but older than my newer one. Anyway do you know what lagerfeld version I got? It looks exactly like the lagerfeld cologne bottle but says eau de cologne ,not just cologne or classic. Anyway awesome video tell me what you think about the lagerfeld
Man I have never seen one that says eau de cologne on it... email me a pic will you 👍
@@RamseytheRam ok,I will
About Heritage EDT, the new square bottles are similar to the 2016-2021 ones (listerine bottle)? I don't know if I should buy a brand new one or look for those bottles around 2018.
If you can get the listerine bottles for cheap do that as its a known commodity ... i have never smelled Habit Rouge / Heritage EDT or Vetiver in the new square bottles 🤷🏻♂️
For Shalimar I prefer an edt from the 60s or 70s to a pdt from the 80s or 90s. Shalimar's PDT is not what I expected to be honest, I gave it to my mother. I think Guerlain did a better job with the pdt in Mitsouko which I enjoy more than the Shalimar
Man for me the PDT & EDP of Shalimar made my top ten... of all time! 😂😂😂
Crazy how different strokes for different folks 🍻
@@RamseytheRam Oh shit, I'm really sorry Ramsey. To be honest, I'm by no means saying it's bad, but the very old edts which were the second concentration in Guerlain were fabulous. I recently acquired an edt L'Heure Bleue which has impressed me in the same way that shalimar 70s edt did.
No offense taken at all... whats funny is I usually prefer the EDTs of Guerlain.. but Shalimar is the exception where I love the EDP / PDTs
Fahrenheit and Eau Sauvage are still great IMO.
So many that is a shell of its former shelf. Aramis for example is so weak now it's embarrassing.
Ugh .. that's pain and suffering lol
I find it fascinating that perfumes are, often, formulated either for men or women, as some of the notes of these would be right up my alley, as a woman, but suspect I'd recognise they would be better suited to men. I wonder how perfumers came to that division in the first place?
You know whats funny is I read that the notes for Men or Women have also changed over very long time frames ... I am talking about over 100s of years.. rumor is in the 1700 and 1800 hundreds Lavender was considered a feminine smell... now it is in probably 40 to 50% of all masculine perfume.... Rose was considered a masculin flower back in the day too before it flipped to a feminine note ... its just crazy how it really seems more to do with trends and what is "In" rather than any hard case of this is a fem. note and this is a masculine one... interesting topic indeed 🤔👍
@@RamseytheRam it really is. My philosophy is I'll try a masculine fragrance whose notes appeal to me on the off-chance that I'll like it and can wear it easily.
Sir Ramsey ! Where can you find Heritage for 60.00 every place I looked is up in the 90.00 to 100.00 ball park let me know your secret I would even settle for a 10ml decant ? Thanx my friend
Maybe my pricing is old 😂😂😂
I thought it was a 60 to 70 dollar frag... but i could be using old info 😬
Knock Knock Knock. Hello David. You're Heritage lives in Canada.
Ohhh, ol haby haby Habit Rouge resides with your friend.
whoa...I just checked...prices seriously jumped. I just checked and I purchase my bottle on 12/2020. It was 45.98
@@bromunn8102 crazy... i must have been going off of 2 year old prices 😬
Fun fact: Donald Trump released a cologne sometime in the late 90's/early 2000's that uses the same flacon as Lauder For Men. It has the old school all gold cap like you mentioned.
Yes I know! I would love a bottle just the collector in me lol
Aaron Terrence Hughes is a legend. He always tries to use top quality ingredients
Nice I cant wait to really get to wear Tabac & Oud 👍
@@RamseytheRam I have always loved the original tabac like I love brut but his will be special . His videos are amazing . Will wait for your tabac vid to come out. Cheers mate all the best from down under
Ramsey, what do you think about Creed - Royal Mayfair 75 ml (batch from 2015.) ?
Is it worth 200 or 300 euros ?
75ml? No you should be able to find 125ml for that price
@@RamseytheRam
Thanks bro.
So as far the quality goes, AA vs TM A*men ? Which one is better 🤔 actually have never tested AA
They are both amazing quality to be honest ... I like them both close to equally tbh
One more tip...i laugh so hard,when i see eau de toilette writting on Lapidus bottle,and when i wear it i can still smell it 15 or so hours later....oh,how i miss the 80'!Statement makers!
Yes spot on... the Eau de Toillets of the 80s put all the modern Extraits and EDP Intense and all that stuff to shame 😂😂😂
Ok , you are way too persuasive. Even from across the pond 😂 just ordered a bottle of lapidus pour homme . Never tried it before so I got no comparison but excited to smell it . Also just 5 mins ago Tom Ford men extreme got delivered that I ordered a few days ago 😁 that juice …. Maaaan …. Now I’m poised to get at least one more backup bottle 😬 will this “ hunt “ ever end ?! 😂
That's the beauty... it never ends
But Lapidus PH is an all time great
Zino es extraordinario, casi un nicho que se consigue todavía. Animale no lo he probado.
Ahhh yes get a bottle of Animale Animale now while you can... rumor is it is Discontinued 🥲
Sat in the carpark while waiting for the wife to do some grocery shopping...I'm not wearing any perfume. Oh my what's this in my pocket? probably 1981 splash bottle very aged...4 large sprays inside the car. Oh man you should have been there...the wife gets in and on the way home I had to open the window its still banging out now. Can Roja make it like this?
Can Roja make it like Patou ph? NO 😂😂😂
@@RamseytheRam Sorry Bud it was Kouros I forgot to say, Its that strong it would cover up the smell of a corpse. the wife said it was that strong she couldn't breath hahahaha
Ahhhh yes Kouros.... no Roja cant make Kouros... thats Pierre Bourdons masterpiece and the guy is a genius 🤌🤌🤌
Hey Ramsey, how are you?
I got a video idea for you. Would be great if you would do a Top 20 of your fragrances with current formulations. Which one would you pick?
Thanks for the rec George... its hard for me to find vintage fragrances in their modern formulations that are good... had a hard time finding 5 never mind 20... i think i want to do these 5 at a time but maybe once I have run through my whole collection we can do a round - up or overall rec in one video... thanks for the idea & thanks for watching & commenting 😊
@@RamseytheRam I see. It does not have to be vintage. Just from your collection 😊
Nice video pal, lapidus is still ok, boss no.1, aramis, ADC colonia, versace l'homme, many others but for how long until these get reformed to death, be a sad day.
Yes but its 2022 ... the fact that they havent been reformulated to death is a slight miracle. Hope you enjoyed the video concept & thanks for watching 😊
What about calling it "Back to the Present" list?
I like it! lemme stew on what that would look like and if people will understand it at first glance.
Thanks for the rec & for watching & commenting of course 🍻
Thank you Ramsey, much appreciated 👍
Thanks for watching Steve 🙏🙏🙏
What would happen if I layer Heritage with Lapidus lol
🤯
Love these heads up vids,gotta a grab a couple I don’t have Animal Animal for sure,got eventually,took forever to arrive lol,Tabu from Dana in a bottle style you got ,its beautiful however it states cologne on box and bottle ?? Came from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 so the stickers on bottom of bottle is in Chinese ( who’d of thunk it lol) and it’s a splash and edt and has the classic small hole opening to control and the fragrance amount right ,so I’m thinking it’s definitely aimed at the masculine market however I thought it was a feminine fragrance weird yeah ???.anyway it is a genuine article everything is age appropriate box,bottles ageing on both it’s a partial 80 % full an enigma to me for sure cheers Rams food for thought 🙏👍✌️
Did not realize that about Hong Kong ... Tabu is worth grabbing to all of those who like that ambery oriental style .. thanks for the support Bren... wore my Russian oud to Bed last night & wow ... swoon 😁
@@RamseytheRam yes indeed my ouds are my go to choices for bed time honestly I haven’t worn any out in the wild lol 😂
Really helpful knowing this, thanks.🙂
Thank you Andrew... appreciate you watching & commenting mate 🍻
@@RamseytheRam The Ted Lapidus might be worth me looking into as I think I have seen it at stores here (Australia) unless there are others in the Ted Lapidus line.
I wore a Shulton vintage Mandate today, which would fall into the exact opposite of this video, if compared to the current Eden Classic one.
All the best,
Andrew
Ted lapidus pour homme from 1978 & Lapidus Pour Homme from 1987 are both full bottle worthy frags 🍻
I wonder if ATH got excited hearing you wore his cologne to bed. Lol ❤️ 💙 😮😅
😂😂😂
Literally sleeping though
😴
Great topic 👏🏻
Thanks JP... appreciate the support as always my friend 🍻
"The boss is here. Everyone shut up. Sit down" - love it. Fragrances can be so powerful in the emotions and reactions they evoke. This is a wonderful video, Ramsey. Hoping it will become a series rather than just 2 parts.
As long as I can keep finding vintage frags in their current form that are still availabe I will keep making these... thanks so much for watching & commenting 🍻
22:30 - 29:40 for Heritage ; 40:25 - 46:00 for Lapidus
Thank you🙏🙏
Guerlain Heritage is similar to Zino.Beau de Jour is copy of Zino,just drydown of Zino is still best..Heritage last short.not even 5h.
I dont know if you have smelled the vintage gold cap Heritage but it easily last 8 hours on my skin... i smell it all day although I usually reapply
@@RamseytheRam I have newest botlle design..it is week

This was my idea for 🦆 to do!
I'm still happy 🐏 did it though!
Thank you for the rec Baratrion! I know a few folks have been asking for it and you probably were first so thank you!
More in this series to come over the coming weeks 😊
@@RamseytheRam I'm looking forward to it! Man, that Lauder fragrance is just amazing. I'm a big fan. I think it has a special place, because it has a distinctive smell and also it was created in the year I was born. For some reason I'm more attached to fragrances that were released in the year I was born :)
For me its Hugo Boss No one... 1985 😁

I got a vintage Shalimar EDT and it reminded me of vintage Lagerfield Classic. Tell me I'm not crazy or do you also see the similarities?
Well I personally think Shalimar is much closer to Coty Emeraude
Lagerfeld Classic smells more like the trend it inspired in the 80s CK Obsession, KL & KL Homme etc...
@@RamseytheRam I think my nose is broken lol
There is just a lot to smell.. sometimes things smell the same at first until you smell more... plus everyone's nose is different
