One of the issues with mint has nothing to do with mint itself; it is the conflation of mint with menthol. In so many products these two monikers have become incorrectly synonymous. Thank you so much for this great review, how esthetically and thematically satisfying! my 20 year old son has just asked for a mint fragrance. He typically wears pure natural essences, prefers them to perfumery, and loves spearmint essential oil. I am hoping to find a frag that evokes this! 🍃
Love Beach Hut Man from Amouage. Probably in my top 5 from this house. Mint fragrances are comforting to me. Saint Julep smells delightful but disappears on me after two hours. Can't handle Burberry Indigo; smells like Windex on me. (Can you do rhubarb fragrances?)
I absolutely agree: Mint can be amazing, but Geranium pour Monsieur is awful! Other nice mint fragrances: Bijon - Menthe Froide, Comme des Garcons - Play Green, Jul et Mad - Aqua Sextius, Eau d'Italie - Acqua Decima, Histoires de Parfums - 1828 (Eucalyptus is mentioned, but that smells minty, of course).
Definitely agree with Mr. Burberry Indigo. I've always dubbed FK Mr. Lemonmint since he tends to use those together quite a bit. Case in point, Carven's L'eau Intense - one of the strongest designer freshies in the past half-decade imo. Beach Hut was my Christmas Eve fragrance, but I've been busting Molinard's The Basilic quite a bit lately. Essentially basil-mint tea, but super refreshing.
Thanks for this great video Sebastian. My primary mint fragrance is Menta y Menta from Miller Bertaux. It is straightforward (not complex), full-on mint. I think of chewing gum more than toothpaste or mouthwash, but it I like it. Also, it is one of the few fragrances I can wear if I have a bad headache so in that sense, it is also therapeutic!
I'm from the middle east too, (Tunisia) and we use mint a lot in our cooking, tea etc... and we plant it in our garden also and there's nothing better than smelling a fresh cut mint leaf.
I like mint in Guerlain Homme Edp, very nice fragrance! Possible notes to feature, not sure if you might have covered them already though: incense, myrrh, gardenia, grapefruit. PS. A Happy 2021, Sebastian!
I thought I didn't like mint but you've persuaded me to try! Starting in January, I usually begin desiring fresher fragrances so mint might be a new direction to explore. Maybe currant would be a note to focus on for a video. Or, perhaps more broadly, berries.
Mint is my favourite herb. Can’t live without it in the kitchen. Love mint tea and a minty bath, but just can’t wear it as a fragrance and I have tried - specifically Mentha by Fiele Fragrances which is a sweet, spicy, Moroccan spearmint - very refreshing but not on my skin! I like to sniff it on clothes, but not on my skin. Very weird 😂
I LOVE mint!! I love the mint in Rosabotanica by Balenciaga. I don't see a mint note listed but it definitely gives off a minty essence. SO sad they've discontinued this gem.
So sad that L'homme ideal cool is now discontinued, I managed to buy two 100ml bottles in Spain but the mint note on this one is almost absent. Do you have a similar perfume to recommend ?
Thanks to you Sebastian, I blind bought "Clementine California" and it's the best fragarnce ever. I also ordered "Afternoon swim" recently, which should be arriving very soon ( also blind bought). All the best to you and have a very happy new year. Cheers from Estonia!!
Great video. I got the Nomad Tea today and this prompted me to watch this video. I loved the Geranium pour Monsieur but cannot wear it now because, I think, they changed smth in its formulation. L'Anarchiste by Caron (Copper bottle) and Ombre Noir by Lalique both great men's fragrances featuring a very prominent mint note. They are both unapologetically male and quite alpha-male smelling, dare I say. Thank you!
Wonderful video! I love mint, and you can tell how passionate you are about it, which is nice to see . I loved your powdery perfume video. Wouldn’t mind seeing recommendations for milky, creamy, smokey, incense, honey, tea, chocolate - I noticed some on your channel highlighting 1 or 2, but would also enjoy a top 10 for each (if any of the categories appeal to you:) Or even “next level gourmands” I think a lot of people want to smell like cinnamon rolls 🙋🏻♀️Myself included but I can’t afford angel share.
I don't think i've ever smelled mint in a fra before. Very curious about it now. I have a chance to get a sample of Mancera's "Aoud Lemon Mint" from someone close to me so, i think i'm gonna giver a whirl. Thanks for the video
Another nice list! I have bottles of Beach Hut Man and Eau de Minthe, and travel sprays of Sedley, Renaissance, You or Someone Like You, and Acqua di Parma Club Colonia.
Would you consider eucalyptus as mint? I always consider them in the same territory I think. If so, I would say La Tosca by Xerjoff is my favorite fragrance with this note.
I came across a fragrance called Electric Dreams by Miguel Matos. I haven't smelled it yet but I was intrigued with metallic and plastic being listed as notes. As a beginner Fraghead, I'm very excited to find unusual notes being used. Can you do a video on unusual, non-traditional, or experimental notes if you know of some perfumes using them? Even something like clay seems pretty unique to me.
Hey Sebastian, you should check Menthe Froide from Bijon made by Cecile Zarokian. It's so refreshing on a hot hot day 🙂 It's in an extrait concentration and it's not that pricey 😉
can u suggest any mint frag suitable for me? normal perfume always make me headache and sorethroat.. i would like to find any mint perfume for sensitive perfume person like me.. anything suitable for me?
Hi I hope you can help me I brought a discontinued purfume that my daughter loves we can not find anything similar the it is mint cucumber ( just made by Primark) but as teen girl she loves it as mint & cucumber it self are both fresh clean smelling but the cucumber adds a fruity smell ( we try perfume shop card sprayed sergestions) nothing came close to it
Thanks for another great video . I think u would lean toward the mint/chocolate of thosr 2 with it being maybe a darker scent. Have been wanting the first Guerlain one for a while now . Im not a big fan of Vince Camuto but their ETERNO ( white bottle) is great for me and it leads with a wonderful mint note that stays with the scent throughout. Have you smelled it and if so what did you think of it.
Dont like in fragrances tbh unless blended with other notes in a really balanced way. Could u do fragrances list with peru balsam or balsamic in general and lil bit discussion on what that is actually in fragrances?
it´s like you read peoples minds :D, yesterday in 100 k sub video i was thinking about making a request on top minty fragrances video :D. Also watching your video right now i am sure you are going to do another one, that i wanna see... top 10 amouage fragrances, am i right haha
I got a sample of this. The smell is nice and unique but i couldn’t properly judge the projection and longevity since it was a small dabbed vibe. How is the performance for you?
@@Artsloverinlr performance is solid 6-10hours if I spray 2times on shirt/chest area and 1spray on each wrist. just make sure not to spray too close to your nose, so you don't get noseblind. Nomad Tea has that sugary note similar to BR540 which people can get noseblind to quickly if the source is near to the nose.
I think Montale & Mancera (or one of them) has a couple of mint fragrances. I've just seen them while scrolling through so I have no clue what they smell like.
Like you, I prefer an aromatic mint type spearmint, like "nana mint" that grows in mediterranean countries. I'm not a fond of pepper mint, it's too "After Height-ish" (the chocolate), it reminds me too much of British Christmas treats or chewing gums.
It’s a fruit and looks like a cross between apple or pear not eatable unless you cook it or boil it but the fruit has such gorgeous fragrance to it. Fruity sweet essence. You can buy quince jam and eat it it’s quite yum!!
Great work, Sebastian! I’ve been waiting for this topic. How do you feel that Agonist’s “Nordic Noir” compares to those listed? It’s kind of a wet mint and the sample I have got me interested in mint scents. Keep it up and hello from Corvallis, Oregon!
Lol Vicks Vaporub isn't a fragrance 😂. It's a petroleum jelly which smells of eucalyptus and menthol used to treat nasal congestion. Very common in the UK
Phenomenal list sebastian, would love to see you reviewing Chocman Mint by alyson oldoini wih notes of lavender, mint, chocolate ,tonka, patchouli,vanilla, coffee and much more:) i heard its amazing.
@@fragchitown8985 I loved it so much I bought 5 other rook fragrances. I have to say, undergrowth and the forest are my two favorites that are "milder" but amber is my overall favorite. So so good.
@@crank01 Wow - you are a good supporter of the brand! I tried Forest and it found it nice, but decided not enough to buy a bottle. I likely stayed away from trying Amber because I dislike vanilla and that typically features in the amber accord.

I purchased some spearmint and peppermint essential oils and they are divine!! I guess because they are not mixed in with other ingredients.
I know that mugler aura does not have a mint note but it almost has a minty vibe!

Cartier Roadster is a nice summer fragrance predominantly with a mint note.
I like it too but due to patchouli I can wear it only in colder temperatures.
I'm from the middle east too, (Tunisia) and we use mint a lot in our cooking, tea etc... and we plant it in our garden also and there's nothing better than smelling a fresh cut mint leaf.
Mint is absolutely one of my favorite notes. Love st julep and a sleeper mint frag is the cape by Abbott NYC. Great vid

It's 🔥I have and 💘 mine dry down is a 💰smelling oud worth it
One of my favorite notes, can't wait to watch it...
Does Guerlain Homme last in terms of projection and siage? Or on ur skin? Love to hear your options!!
Another nice list!
I have bottles of Beach Hut Man and Eau de Minthe, and travel sprays of Sedley, Renaissance, You or Someone Like You, and Acqua di Parma Club Colonia.
Ima have to try beach hut man! You or someone line you✅✅✅👍🏾
Im looking for natural smelling mint for women. Can you recommend one?
Have you tried Guerlain Herba Fresca, from the Aqua Allegoria line? Really nice mint
From the two Amouage fragrances I perfer Beach Hut Man over Enclave Man. Happy new year 2021 🥂
I love mint. Awesome list as usual Seb!

For a nice grapefruit and mint fragrance, try L’Eau Mixte by Nicolai from their Eau Fraiche line. Very refreshing!
Happy Wednesday. Love mint and mint fragrances.
Beach hut man is really good 😊 Enclave is ok, not great no bad at all. SJ is incredible 😸
Great list - First Sight and Royal Crown Celebration are my top 2
Hey Sebastian, you should check Menthe Froide from Bijon made by Cecile Zarokian. It's so refreshing on a hot hot day 🙂 It's in an extrait concentration and it's not that pricey 😉
I got Samples of Saint Julep and You or someone like you. I thought I could pick one over the other but they are both soooo good!!!!!!!!!
OOH awesome. Minty Fresh!!
I would like to see a video on fragrances with the Grape note! ❤

l am craving for Mohito smelling perfume... any suggestions?
I love to eat mint and love the smell too. Happy New Year 🍾
Mint fragrances are great. I bet you like Beach Hut!
Dont like in fragrances tbh unless blended with other notes in a really balanced way. Could u do fragrances list with peru balsam or balsamic in general and lil bit discussion on what that is actually in fragrances?
Maybe Beach Hut Man---because of the vetiver?
What do you think about PdM Byerley? Too toothpastey?
Mentha Religiosa de Roos&Roos Paris, beautiful!
Best wishes for 2021. Really love eau de minthe, but missed in the list colonia club from aqua di Parma
I love bannna republic grassland, I wished it lasted longer
Nice list, thanks again. But I couldn't find Creed Viking .
Can you please do a videos on your top fragrances from tiziana torenzi, Xerjoff, atelier des orcs.... please consider it.
I LOOOOOVEE you or someone like you! it's amazing! just so so clean.

I adore xerjoff 1861 Renaissance,good choice for the spring and summer ～
Azarro Wild mint is another good one and very cheap around 35 dollars 🙂
I 2nd this. Excellent fragrance and value!
I love to eat mint and smell these on my balcony garden but I don’t really like them in perfumes. I do however enjoy your videos🤗
Congratulation for 100k subscriber 👏💪
Great list and I enjoyed it and I like Mr.Burberry indigo and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed day
Jean-Paul Gaultier Le Male Fraiche Superman my favourite, bubblegum minty smell
Hi Sebastian, have you tried maitre parfumeur et gantier oud extravagant?
Need to get Menthe Fraiche. Can't have a mint fragrance list without it in my opinion.
Menthe Fraiche to me is toothpaste galore. Unfortunately I cannot stand it! :(
@@ThePerfumeGuy Oh man, that's unfortunate. Fortunately, I don't get the toothpaste smell from it. To each their own I guess.
Really enjoy ELDO YOSLU as well as Eau De Minthe!
Best mint is The Gate First Sight. On clothes it lasts for days and days.
I love a woody,spicy and mint in one
I love mint too and completely agree with you on the Heely one. Everyone said it was the best mint, but to me it was like toothpaste.
Great review, I suggest you check out azzaro wild mint
Enclave is your favorite 🎉 i guess
I think Montale & Mancera (or one of them) has a couple of mint fragrances. I've just seen them while scrolling through so I have no clue what they smell like.
I am a man, and agree with Versace Eros blue. I don't like the opening smell
Like you, I prefer an aromatic mint type spearmint, like "nana mint" that grows in mediterranean countries. I'm not a fond of pepper mint, it's too "After Height-ish" (the chocolate), it reminds me too much of British Christmas treats or chewing gums.
..................Cartier Roadster thoughts?
Oooh, lush's Dirty is no.1 believe me
I like the idea of herby fragrances! Can you do a lemon one?
Here's a Lemon one From 1.5 years ago: th-cam.com/video/mZ6x4vzULEI/w-d-xo.html
Do you have any Lychee ones?
What are some good aquatic fragrances?
Can someone tell me what is a fragrance that resembles that scent in the Lush shampoo called DaddyO?
Pasha De Cartier Fraucheur Menthe is my favorite minty frag ever made peroid
Hey, what is quince? I saw it in a note break down....came to your channel to find out :D
It’s a fruit and looks like a cross between apple or pear not eatable unless you cook it or boil it but the fruit has such gorgeous fragrance to it. Fruity sweet essence. You can buy quince jam and eat it it’s quite yum!!
Came here bcs tom hiddleston flirted with an interviewer and said "you smell minty". This is part of my research.

Any mint vanilla suggestions?
Hmm try the Amouage Enclave closest to me! :)

Spearmint would be awesome
