I love the comment Aaron made of it being an all age fragrance. So many reviews I have seen call it a 40+ fragrance, being 21 and wearing this often I adore that comment, to me it has no age, it just smells great, it performs fabulously and sets you apart from the Sauvage wearing crowd, not to knock Sauvage but people look at you differently wearing something so seemingly different to the norm, dying to get my hands on Aaron’s fragrances for a while now, though not sure which to go for, fantastic review and a fantastic person. Thank you Aaron
I own Grand Soir and although I don't wear it often due to the Miami Florida heat, it is absolutely one of my top perfumes. There is such perfection in this scent. I'm not a perfumer nor very good at describing details of a scent, but this just screams magnificence.
MFK grand soir is love at first sniff. Beastly projection and perfect winter cologne. I had got many compliments especially with this one and the best one was someone saying that I wanna hug you and not let go!
man i cant believe how a human across the globe can communicate with people the way you do!! i was able to smell grad soir through you ur description and simply your liking for it. you were able to captivate man like for real. ur an amazing person!! keep up the amazing reviews. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
The first day I wore this out, I got two compliments right away from women, they wanted to wear it themselves. I love these potent, intoxicating, androgynous scents.
What a beautiful artistic review! The way you express your feelings toward this perfume is so mesmerizing! I am ordering this one today. I fell in love with Baccarat rouge 540 Extrait but after smelling this one, I have to agree that this one by far is the best creation of MFK. Bravo!
Just ran across this reveiw of yours and I've been on the fence about purchasing this. After viewing this video I'm buying it and buying it today. 10 out of 10 from Aaron is a must get
I smile whenever I get a notice you have a new video.I don't have this one but it's been on my must buy list for quite a while.Thank you for making my mind up for me.Appreciate you my friend.
What a small world...met you on a Facebook group and I actually blind bought grand soir because of your picture of your collection and your comments about grand soir. Good luck on the wedding brother. See you at the next raffle.
Thank you for this wonderful in depth review. Grand Soir is one of my holy grail frags. It's so wonderfully blended and easy for me to wear Anytime, Anyplace. Totally agree with you 10/10. I believe it's the best one from this house.
I love Grand Soir so much! I just recently discovered it. I wear it all year long. I don't find it too dense for the summer, because there is a sheerness to the richness. Thank you for your review, Aaron!
One of my favorite amber based fragrances. I love how you give everything a fait shake. Even with fragrances that you don't like, you try to give an unbiased review (which is how a good reviewer should do a review). I also really want to try MFK Absolue Pour Le Soir which is supposed to be a more animalic, dirtier take on amber. I would be interested seeing you review Papillon Artisan Perfumes. My favorite is Salome (fairly animalic) but I think Bengale Rouge from them would be right up your alley as it is a beautiful spicy oriental.
Love your reviews, love your style. Your reviews are captivating and I trust your judgement of fragrances and buy accordingly. Great stuff, keep these awesome reviews coming :)
this perfume makes you standout from those sauvage users 100% . the scent trail on these is fucking crazy. this is the most sexiest fragrance so far that caught my attention
I think this one is actually too good for me to pull off. You have to be someone who gets their eyebrows waxed and spends 2 hours a day on personal hygiene and who never walks out of the house not looking perfectly dressed and manicured. It’s a masterful composition, but for me it’s something I’d only wear one or two nights every year, maybe in a tuxedo or suite. Would be good for a wedding. For the people who can effortlessly pull this off every day, more power to you
Haha… I wear this frequently just to go to the grocery store here in Mariposa/Yosemite (where the locals look and smell dirty) but the tourists always stop me. Even this summer strolling in wearing board shorts, slides, t-shirt, fedora and shades.
@@J34U2 I agree with you on this! I wear perfumes for myself and not just for other people so I will wear this to the grocery store also. Life is short! I'm here for a good time...not a long time. So I'm going to enjoy my expensive fragrances.
I'll wear GS to a restaurant in jeans on a Saturday night. If you think you can't pull it off, I'm not sure what you think you're projecting. Just wear it on a cool evening and enjoy!
Be very careful on the number of sprays. I have been reprimanded more than once for putting on 3-4 sprays, one girl said I smelled like a French whore from 15 feet away. It is very sickly rich. I wore it once and developed the stomach flu later that evening and the smell just made me vomit even more. That said, it is a good fragrance. But, go light on the trigger.
What a fine display Aaron, you just convinced me to blind buy this. You were speaking to my soul and not my ears. The first time that anyone has ever convinced me to blind buy a fragrance. God bless you Sir and keep up the excellent work.
@@NEPALESE.AMERICAN Hi and thanks for your message. I found Grand Soir to be a fairly stripped down amber, free of all the added spices that you tend to get with other ambers. Grand Soir is a classically blended amber, a bit like what Oud Wood is to oud fragrances. Grand Soir, like Oud Wood, is a fragrance that is a true reflection of the olfactory category that it claims to represent. In short, it is a timeless, classic fragrance, when you walk into a room you will command respect and people will be very intrigued. It is a stand up and take notice type of fragrance. And like Oud Wood, Grand Soir doesn't over do it, it's beauty is in its simplicity, pure old world charm that hasn't been corrupted by modern ideas. In short, you can't go wrong if you buy it, it will set the room on fire if you walk in wearing it. I hope at least some of that made sense, good luck.
Aaron You are so nice, your reviews, the way u describe the scents are lovely. your knowledge and honesty is what put u ahead in giving people a benifit that nobody on youtube does or are able to do, And If u would bash a house ( what u never did in my eyes at all ) it will be just for releasing a bad fragrance and if it is a great house they have to step their game up and make better ones. So Easy is that. They might will hate u for saying your opinion and giving hints of oil ingredients but people will love you for that. Go unicorn go !
I understand the hard work and money invoiced in creating perfume. Even if I dont like it I can see the skill. The only time il really go in if it is overpriced massively or a dupe
Another awesome, in-depth review. I can smell the quality through and through from this one. Sadly, it comes off my skin a bit medicinal but even with that I still have it ranked in my personal top 5 ambers.
@@hocineted7594 For me it seems perfect for everyone, I think the ones that have a powdery touch like Histories de Parfum Ambre 114 would be more apt to lean slightly feminine off some skin, and it still be very easy for a guy to wear comfortable without worrying about what others may think.
I think with these tier of perfumery. The sillage is what someone typical goes for. I find that I love the sillage of my perfumes more than smelling it straight onto skin.
Grand Soir to me is simple, linear & beautiful. I'll never be without it. Good for more formal occasions. One thing I've noticed: women give me the most compliments when I wear more androgynous frags.
It is amber and vanilla nothing feminine . It is really Formal maybe that's the word you search but if you want a definitive masculine from mfk take gentle fluidity silver , gold is alot more for women but unisex but silver is really male leaning just check on fragrantica. One of my favorite with grand soir but totally different . Gentle f silver smells like gin tonic
Hi, first video I've watched of yours and loved it! Chris from Fragmental introduced me to you. This is exactly the sort of information and knowledge I'm after. I'll go and watch all the rest now! Much appreciate your whole vibe. 👍
I absolutely love Grand soir! AMBERS are some of my favorite perfumes and I think you should do something like this Aaron an amber dominant fragrance would be really awesome!
I love that you just say what you feel almost every other you tuber has biases based on the brand and other things but you just smell the notes and the way they’re blended. This makes your opinions so Valuable in this community! I have got 2 recommendations for you a simple one is white musk by the body shop it’s a fun cheapie and I’d love to see your reaction😋the other is a bit out there and that is anything from Ensar ouds collection like No1.
Hello I just finished my work came home, opened letter just got it today - 10ml sample with Grand Soir came and now I am watching your video about Grand Soir You made my evening Kisses from Taunton (UK)
@@hocineted7594 the opposite, maybe you are not used to sweet unisex fragrances? i'm a man and it doesn't smell feminine to me, if you're not confident wearing it maybe it's not for u, or maybe give it more time maybe you will grow with it
To the first guy: The cost doesn’t necessarily play that much into the ratings unless it’s so expensive that nobody can get their hands on it. At at the $100 to $400 range, MKFs are expensive, but still very attainable for most with a little bit of budgeting. To the 2nd guy: BR540 is indeed popular and excellent, but has lost a lot of it’s buzz over the last 5 or 6 years. There’s fragrances that are much older getting way more attention. Allure Homme Sport, T’Hermes, GIT, SMW are significantly older and are still talked about more.
I think they might have a presentation issue. All their bottles are modest and look the same. Most fragrances buyers aren’t frag heads. It isn’t going to grab the attention of the casual shopper. Instead they’ll look at the flashy Creeds, PDMs, or designer houses they already know before giving MKF a second look. It’s not to say they don’t have good sales, but it seems they’re overshadowed by a lot of other brands.
I have just ordered it. We are going down to two videos a week now. So I recon 6 weeks il do it. But il do a really long, in-depth review. Black orchid is my all time favourite fragrance. So this better be one better.
@@AaronTerenceHughes That's a great idea. I'm sorry to also say I've heard a rumour that Plum Japonais is being discontinued so I rewatched your video on it to pay tribute ahah. I hope it isn't true.
I do here in the UK. If it's a warmish summer night I'll just ease off with the sprays and let it dry down a bit if I'm going somewhere with a lot of people.
Fantastic reviews, will have to try some of your scents. I think this is the best MFK by far! Please review some Guerlain like Santal Royal and Arabian Oud Majestic Woody Intense.
@@AaronTerenceHughes My pleasure, you are unique and beautiful, and fragrance world is on another level now because of you, and I hope many will realise and appreciate that. Thank you, lots of love 😘🤗🍒 xxx
I'm new to the channel and i just binged on your reviews, great work Aaron . Please review Aqua Vitae Forte from the house (MFK) I think its the best as far as blending is concerned. Thanks
Finally smelled this beautiful thing and pulled the trigger just now. Its so much better than serge luten's ambre sultan and frederic malle's musc ravageur (i own both and they're a bit similar in genre), its blended very very well. I think this is the smoothest and yet most powerful amber I've ever smelled.
@@hojubaby i got sample of grand soir and I have received many compliments, I don’t know if I will buy it or not, I will try musc ravageur, thank you very much.
@@hocineted7594 i gave away many fragrances that got me compliments, if i dont feel ok wearing a fragrance i really dont care about the compliments to be honest, go with what makes you feel good is my opinion
So interesting that I’m wearing this particular sample today)) A bit mature for me but among all mature evening perfumery I’ve tried including Chanel this has to be top of the top.
Happy new year dear Aaron, can you please advise if grand soir is similar to lune feline by atelier des ors? I was thinking to blind buy this...I hate grand soir though.
I based it out added Chocolate accord and renamed it. Its about 60% the same. Unfortunately people didn't get the concept of mostly top heavy fragrance to add to base heavy fragrance.
Maison Francis Kurkdjan grand soir. A warm, smoky and refined Amber. Reddish resin that comes from conifers, its name derived from the Greek "Ambriosos" means immortal, and this perfume in 50 years will not have taken a wrinkle. I was afraid that it would be sweet, but it is not the case, if not by the black and natural pod of its Vanilla. For the non-dominant Tonka is positioned in the background and with restraint ... and THAT, my friends, is very good. By imposing this one as the dominant note in all Orientals this past decade, the flame between it and me ended up being extinguished. I got sick of it, going from "I love it, it's one of my favorite olfactory notes" to "Again? they don't have anything else on hand or something" because it dominates and tyrannizes the other notes. At the time when Pierre Hermé claimed that he hated Tonka, I was thinking "How is that possible?" now I understand better. Anyway, here it only serves as a support and so much the better, just like Cistus. A creamy, dimensional scent that evolves slowly. I prefer it after 1 hour. It reminds me a bit of Dior "Vanilla Diorama" as on my skin it reveals itself spicy as a mix of Cardamom, Patchouli and African Cinnamon (from Ceylon or Madagascar). In conclusion, I thought at first that it was boring and banal... After an hour of evolution, I completely change my mind. 7,5/10
wore tabac today just love the creamy vanilla in it smells very nice and very expensive i was put off by the name but i purchased after your review of it and glad i did love it fantastic love it would recommend all to get there nose on it
Its 10/10 as it represents perfection as a French perfume. To me if you said show me the best quality perfectly priced French perfume. I would hand you this
I love the comment Aaron made of it being an all age fragrance. So many reviews I have seen call it a 40+ fragrance, being 21 and wearing this often I adore that comment, to me it has no age, it just smells great, it performs fabulously and sets you apart from the Sauvage wearing crowd, not to knock Sauvage but people look at you differently wearing something so seemingly different to the norm, dying to get my hands on Aaron’s fragrances for a while now, though not sure which to go for, fantastic review and a fantastic person.

MFK is a criminally underrated house. Genius unisex leaning fragrances. I’ll be sure to snag a Grand Soir decant soon.
there’s hardly a perfume enthusiast who doesn’t talk about MFK, definitely not underrated. Especially considering the baccarat rouge craze.

can grand soir work in summer nights?
I do here in the UK. If it's a warmish summer night I'll just ease off with the sprays and let it dry down a bit if I'm going somewhere with a lot of people.
Fantastic reviews, will have to try some of your scents. I think this is the best MFK by far! Please review some Guerlain like Santal Royal and Arabian Oud Majestic Woody Intense.
I'm torn between Alexandria II and this. Would either be a safe blind buy?
U are the only British person I admire💫❤️

Its so much better than serge luten's ambre sultan and frederic malle's musc ravageur (i own both and they're a bit similar in genre), its blended very very well. I think this is the smoothest and yet most powerful amber I've ever smelled.
I find it that leans more feminine what do you think ?
@@hocineted7594 yeah, i agree , i gave a sample to my friend and he said its too feminine for him
@@hocineted7594 i think frederic malle’s musc ravageur is a more male version, thats a good one too, you can try that instead
@@hojubaby i got sample of grand soir and I have received many compliments, I don’t know if I will buy it or not, I will try musc ravageur, thank you very much.
@@hocineted7594 i gave away many fragrances that got me compliments, if i dont feel ok wearing a fragrance i really dont care about the compliments to be honest, go with what makes you feel good is my opinion
So interesting that I’m wearing this particular sample today)) A bit mature for me but among all mature evening perfumery I’ve tried including Chanel this has to be top of the top.
It is mature. Your right there. But I enjoyed it massively
I found it little feminine, what do you think ?
I got a discovery set from mfk today.
I sprayed grand soir today and it smells similar to Tom Ford's Vanille fatale. Anyone else think this too?
This scent is more than beautiful.
Hi hope you're well, can you review Ani by Nishane 👌🏻
Happy new year dear Aaron, can you please advise if grand soir is similar to lune feline by atelier des ors? I was thinking to blind buy this...I hate grand soir though.
I got a sample and it smells great I'll buy a bottle just like Herod $400 but worth it 👍
Its available from Amazon, Would u buy this from there?
No. Always buy from the company.
@@AaronTerenceHughes Thanks for that info.
Definitely need to get a sample now
What happened to your Rose fragrance ? Is it discontinued?
It evolved into Oxytocin!
I based it out added Chocolate accord and renamed it. Its about 60% the same. Unfortunately people didn't get the concept of mostly top heavy fragrance to add to base heavy fragrance.
My fave from this house, its so warm and uplifting in my opinion
I love it
I find it that leans more feminine what do you think ?
0:57 It is really triggers me out when you spray a lot. I don't know why lol
I keep thinking damn thats a $30 spray lol
Grand Soir or Ambre Nuit?
Maison Francis Kurkdjan grand soir.
A warm, smoky and refined Amber.
Reddish resin that comes from conifers, its name derived from the Greek "Ambriosos" means immortal, and this perfume in 50 years will not have taken a wrinkle.
I was afraid that it would be sweet, but it is not the case, if not by the black and natural pod of its Vanilla. For the non-dominant Tonka is positioned in the background and with restraint ...
and THAT, my friends, is very good. By imposing this one as the dominant note in all Orientals this past decade, the flame between it and me ended up being extinguished.
I got sick of it, going from "I love it, it's one of my favorite olfactory notes" to "Again? they don't have anything else on hand or something" because it dominates and tyrannizes the other notes. At the time when Pierre Hermé claimed that he hated Tonka, I was thinking "How is that possible?" now I understand better. Anyway, here it only serves as a support and so much the better, just like Cistus.
A creamy, dimensional scent that evolves slowly. I prefer it after 1 hour.
It reminds me a bit of Dior "Vanilla Diorama" as on my skin it reveals itself spicy as a mix of Cardamom, Patchouli and African Cinnamon (from Ceylon or Madagascar).
In conclusion, I thought at first that it was boring and banal...
After an hour of evolution, I completely change my mind.
7,5/10
Sounds nice 👍🏿 Blessed love king 🇹🇹
Thank you::)
wore tabac today just love the creamy vanilla in it smells very nice and very expensive i was put off by the name but i purchased after your review of it and glad i did love it fantastic love it would recommend all to get there nose on it
Thank you Martin. I love to
Excellent review- what season is this best for?
Due to the amber and vanilla I think colder temps.
Aaron Terence Hughes ok thank you 🙏 sir !!
Love this video 👑
It is my favorite perfume of all times yet and i have a lot
Great vid! Do you think this can be worn casually?
I think so. If you love French perfumery. If you dont like this style you wont like it.
5 days for it to arrive i cant wait
disappointed
@@magicman4854 can you tell me why? I planning bought this too
@@Abcdefk-u i changed my mind its very good
@@magicman4854 how bout longevity and projection? Any heard batch issue?
@@Abcdefk-u i got my sample from a tester it has good performance
WOW a 10/10. Now I have to try this
Its 10/10 as it represents perfection as a French perfume. To me if you said show me the best quality perfectly priced French perfume. I would hand you this
@@AaronTerenceHughes Wow.
