I can never afford any of those niche fragrances but I still watch your videos because I love your descriptions. Your passion for fragrance really comes through when you speak!
awesome improvement on audio quality with the lavalier mic. always evolving Mr. G is.....A Master jedi of the fragrance community. i salute you my brother.
Your videos are really outstanding. I am re-exploring the world of fragrance as a +35 adult after being away from it all for 10 years and I find your content really great.
Steven, you are the most classy and sophisticated reviewer! I'm so glad you remain above all the pedestrian drama. Thanks for your list....I always watch out for the unisex scents so that I can wear them. It would be great if you could review some niche women's fragrances as well. I would love to see you and Jen do that together.
This video convinced me to not sell/swap my XXV. Thanks, Steven! Excellent fall lineup! Love your videos as always and sincerely appreciate your articulation.
Hey redo, when you do these top tens can you tell stories like you used to. It makes it more personal, more inviting. And for those who complain about a video to long, just list them on the discription or time stamp. You can do what feels right, but i like a good story behind it.
Thank you for taking interest in them! I would love to do that, and I think I will continue doing that for my most complimented videos! Thank you for the kind words!
I have once tried L'AIR DU DESERT from a friend of mine just this weekend and its MIND BLOWING. And Not to my surprise Steve got it in his list. Now I cant wait to get my hands on a bottle. Amazing and thanks Steve. Cheers !!!!!!!!
Definite toss up almost for me between Tobacco Vanille & Herod. Herod is a tiny bit more sophisticated in my mind. Also agree on Aventus. It was my first Creed purchase and still remains my favorite. Fantastic line-up for the Fall. There's a few I really need to either revisit or take the plunge and get a full bottle. Great job!
I enjoy watching the Fragrance Reviews etc by other TH-camrs but i LOVE watching yours because you're doing it with such a passion... You are doing it all for the sake of fragrances not for becoming a well known TH-camr... Very Sympathetic ! Really makes me enjoy fragrances thanks for that !
One Question: Is Feve Delicieuse worth blindbuying a 7 ml sample for 35€ ? You mention so many Fragrances I am not able to try, unfortunately, but there are some i really need to try so i have to buy them (actually I'm not regretting it)
Steven great video, I loved electric room when I sampled it at Scentbar in LA. Keep up the good work and I love all the work that you've put into your videos!
Love the video, as usual :). Some very artistic choices this year! Well done sir. Great new camera by the way. The image is very crisp and clear, and the colors are vibrant. If I could make only one suggestion, I'm sure many of us would appreciate a leveling of the camera lol :). The tilt can be a little disorienting.
Thanks for the list Steven, Wow Jubi is no 1 on the list, Time to give it multiple wearings. The main problem was its performance on me & yea i do have a preform bottle.
dude I would be more than happy to take all the ones you don't want off your hands. I feel like doing my own reviews but I don't have enough colognes to do it
Other than Department stores, where's the best place to purchase fragrances in general without getting ripped off ? You mentioned Luckyscent, are there any others? I know not to trust the mall kiosks.
Thank you for watching and for all of the support. In addition to LuckyScent and Twisted Lily, I also trust Osswald. You can sometimes find discounted fragrances on Amazon, FragranceNet, and BeautySpin.
Awesome list Sir. Was a little surprised that your usually smoky scents weren't on this lists & Chergie was discontinued ? Damn I just bought a bottle last week for 70 bucks!
Redolessence thanks for the list.....I just purchased a MUST buy from Parfum de Marly...their Layton is going to be a classic! Its exquisite.. at least I think
Dry down on Herod parfums de marly is great! Wore it last week two day's in a row. Just started on my 4.2oz bottle. So, its in the weekly work rotation. Was waiting for cooler weather to bring it out. 5 sprays is optimal for me.
My guess is that you have about $50 000 worth of fragrances. I wonder how often do you take some time just to stand there and admire your collection.That's what makes this channel the best of its kind.
you've got some on your list that i also love! i've got to try and sniff Dior Feve Delicieuse. it sounds so good and delicious! although i appreciate very much the quality in Amouage Jubilation XXV the scent does not work for me unfortunately.
Great list! Got a sample of Jubilation XXV recently from the decant shop. I really enjoy it. It's not so cold here yet, waiting til it gets cold to really test it out. I think that and Reflection man I definitely want a bottle of. Some of the other Amouage I've tried not so much, they're good, but not bottle good. I'm also loving Parfums de Marly a heck of a lot. I need to try Herod for sure. I know I want a bottle of Oajan, that mofo works wonders on me. Check that one out if you get the chance if you haven't already, I love that stuff, seriously!
great vid Steven, was wondering if you've had a chance to smell Layton by Parfums de Marley, and what your thoughts on it are? keep up the good work, thanks again
My top FALL Niche is an easy list to come up with- WHY…?!?! OMG , Guerlain & Dior have this category locked-down period!!! Couldve easily added 2 more of each😳 1. Guerlain: Angelique Noire 2. Dior: Fève Délicieuse 3. Guerlain: Rose Barbare 4. Dior: Ambre Nuit 5. Francis Kurkdjian: Bacarrat Rouge 540 6. Bond N0. 9: Andy Warhol [Sunglasses] 7. Xerjoff: Laylati 8. Serge Lutens: Five O'Clock Au Gingembre 9. Amouage: Jubilation 25 {VINTAGE} 10. By Kilian: Apple Brandy
Perfect list. I enjoying Chergui, Amouage 25 and Lillipur. Aventus and Dior Feve Delicieuse are not my taste. Looking for 02 L`Air du Desert Marocain, Slow Explosion, and Harod. Thanks for the video.
Steven, have you tried Orion by Terenzi? I hear it actually smells superior to aventus, though it is in the same vein as a smoky batch of aventus. i would love to hear your thoughts on that one.
Awesome list. I will most definitely be sampling some of this, especially the top 2. Would you describe Tom Ford Oud Wood as a fall or winter fragrance or both? Also, would it be suitable for office wear? I've been sampling it and it smells so comforting and alluring, but I am in doubt if it will be too much. For fall I usually go with Terre D'Hermes and CdG Wonderwood however, Wonderwood's performance is questionable.
I think that Oud Wood is good for both fall and winter. I can see it being good for office wear. I say wear what makes you happy! Thank you for watching!
Question: various individuals I have spoken to say that after 2 years you should throw away a fragrance as it is no longer any good. I do not have a huge collection by any means....12-15 or so bottles but of course about 7 or 8 of them are 1/4 to 1/2 full still and I'm not about to throw away anything and I know some of these fragrances are 3-5 years old since I have purchased them. Your thoughts Redolessence? Thank you for your feedback
Lovely selection as usual great taste as u said u put ur nose to a lot and u know what good means. I share the same background and I can tell about ur choices
Great List! I think Oud & Tobbaco are things i dont like smell in fragrances cause i tried Oud Wood & Tobbaco Vanille by Tom Ford & didn't like them. Can you recommend some Oud & Tobbaco based fragrances where they aren't so strong in the mix.
Question for Redolessence I just started collecting Tom Ford Private Blend and I am up to 5 fragrances now. I'm hesitant to purchase more due to reading that at best fragrances will last 5 years if stored in a cool dark place. Advice on this would be appreciated as I would really like to collect more.
Agree on the parfums de marly Herod it's everything tobacco should have been , and more its stunning to wear and it's better value compared to Tom ford
Your lists and reviews definitely have been enjoyable o me. Even tho I don't buy most of these. I try to keep my collection small. Do you have any signature scents??
Hey redo, is aventus always going to be in your line up or will it be a thing of the past since they increase the price each year? Now its over four hundred dollars.
what would I give to have your wall of fragrances ... I'm about to purchase Dior Boise D'Argeant and get a sample of Feve D. which one is more versatile?
Can you recommend any Amouge! Im getting a sample of reflection man but there are so many chose from. Looking for something creamy or spicy with a seductive vibe to it. Nothing to harsh more towards a romantic night. Kind of like Armani Code Profumo.
Hmmm... that's a tough fragrance to find in the Amouage line. Try Jubilation. It's certainly creamy. Another fragrance in that same family is Dia, and you may like Sunshine if you're a fan of lavender. Thank you for watching!
I´m starting to really dislike top best lists cuz i feel it takes away the magic behind talking about a fragrance you love. I know its just my personal opinion, but I think this particular style of presenting fragrances needs a bit of a change. I´m a fan of the chanel and you definitely know what you´re talking, apart from the time you praised One Million. LoL
I can never afford any of those niche fragrances but I still watch your videos because I love your descriptions. Your passion for fragrance really comes through when you speak!
Also, what are your thoughts on Valentino Uomo Intense?
awesome improvement on audio quality with the lavalier mic. always evolving Mr. G is.....A Master jedi of the fragrance community. i salute you my brother.
Glad to see you mention Floris.. my favorite is Elite.
I've yet to try that one! Thank you for watching!
Your videos are really outstanding. I am re-exploring the world of fragrance as a +35 adult after being away from it all for 10 years and I find your content really great.
Thank you so much!
You never fail to make a great list bro. Love it!!
Thank you very much! That means a lot to me!

I had a similar response the first time I smelled it, too! It's love at first sniff! Thank you for watching!
Definite toss up almost for me between Tobacco Vanille & Herod. Herod is a tiny bit more sophisticated in my mind. Also agree on Aventus. It was my first Creed purchase and still remains my favorite. Fantastic line-up for the Fall. There's a few I really need to either revisit or take the plunge and get a full bottle. Great job!
Amouage XXV was around back in the Year of Our Lord? Talk about your Zero Day fragrances. LOL! Excellent Top 10 List, as usual. Enjoyed!!!
I enjoy watching the Fragrance Reviews etc by other TH-camrs but i LOVE watching yours because you're doing it with such a passion... You are doing it all for the sake of fragrances not for becoming a well known TH-camr...
Very Sympathetic ! Really makes me enjoy fragrances thanks for that !

You mention so many Fragrances I am not able to try, unfortunately, but there are some i really need to try so i have to buy them (actually I'm not regretting it)
I would say a sample is a worthy blind buy. It's one of the best fragrances I have ever smelled. I am confident that you will like it!
Thank You ! :)
Awesome list! Totally agree with you on Feve, one of my favorite gourmand ever.
Thank you very much!
Steven great video, I loved electric room when I sampled it at Scentbar in LA. Keep up the good work and I love all the work that you've put into your videos!
Another fantastic review! Can't wait for the designer edition!
That's coming out soon! Thank you for watching!
woohoo!!✨ jubilation xxv nice pick steven, but out of all i will pick the lillipur and the floris over the aventus. thx!
Was looking forward to your list. great video Steven!
Thank you very much!
Got 4 out out your 10. Looking forward to getting Harod. Got two other Privee that are picks of mine. Thanks for the video!
Awesome as always. .... Steven !! Keep up the awesome work !!
Thank you very much!
Love the video, as usual :). Some very artistic choices this year! Well done sir.
Great new camera by the way. The image is very crisp and clear, and the colors are vibrant. If I could make only one suggestion, I'm sure many of us would appreciate a leveling of the camera lol :). The tilt can be a little disorienting.
Haha. Thank you very much! You're right about the tilt! I have to find a way to be consistent with my tripod! Thanks again!
No worries mate :). Keep up the great work!
Great work Steven. keep it up!
Thanks for the list Steven, Wow Jubi is no 1 on the list, Time to give it multiple wearings. The main problem was its performance on me & yea i do have a preform bottle.
Great list. I've almost got all of those. I will be rocking those this Fall too. 👍
Awesome! Thank you for watching!
Great list! I even get notified when you post a new video of scent. I have bought a lot of you recommended. Thanks to you, I'm getting poor Steven 😉
Thank you for all of the kind words! And sorry, brother. Don't mean to make you poor. This is an expensive hobby, indeed. Thanks again!
Yeah that was a great review. definitely agree with you it's your number one pick. I got to get that one to my collection jubilation 25 is awesome.
dude I would be more than happy to take all the ones you don't want off your hands. I feel like doing my own reviews but I don't have enough colognes to do it
Thanks for the excellent video Steven. Appreciate these always. Andy
Awesome video and great list. I think Aventus is best in the fall/winter.
Thank you very much!
Great list Steven. Thank you!
Agreed fully re L'Air du Desert Marocain. A modern masterpiece, one of the very best 'new' perfumes out there.
Awesome list as always! Love from Sweden :)
Thank you very much for the support!
Thank you for another awesome list! I always enjoy your reviews. I've learned a ton from you and look forward to the next vid. Keep up the great work.
Other than Department stores, where's the best place to purchase fragrances in general without getting ripped off ? You mentioned Luckyscent, are there any others? I know not to trust the mall kiosks.
Thank you for watching and for all of the support. In addition to LuckyScent and Twisted Lily, I also trust Osswald. You can sometimes find discounted fragrances on Amazon, FragranceNet, and BeautySpin.
Looking good Steven and a Great list 👍! Running low on your Dior Privee line 😉.
I know! Thank you so much for watching!
I totally agree with you in all these wonderful perfumes except the Andy Tauer one .. cheers!
Awesome list Sir. Was a little surprised that your usually smoky scents weren't on this lists & Chergie was discontinued ? Damn I just bought a bottle last week for 70 bucks!
Chergui was reformulated. Thank you for watching!
Redolessence thanks for the list.....I just purchased a MUST buy from Parfum de Marly...their Layton is going to be a classic!
Its exquisite.. at least I think
Got Herod today.....GOOD JUICE!!!
Almost spot on. Keep it good Work
Awesome list Steven!!
Thank you!
Looking good mate! Great List!
Thank you very much!
That's one hell of a list!!!!! Amazing juices! Has chergui been discontinued altogether or do you just mean it's been reformulated?
It's just been reformulated, unfortunately. Thank you for watching!
Very unusual fragrances ! awesome list Mr G
Thank you very much! I appreciate it!
Out of all of these, which is suitable for the workplace?
Aventus!!!
But Aventus for daily use? Hell nah hahaha.
+Redolessence. Thank you for the list Steven..... The is the PERFECT TIME as Fall is just about to kick-in here in Canada.....✌️:
Yes Aventus is fantastic. I think it is probably one of my favorite of all time.
Dry down on Herod parfums de marly is great! Wore it last week two day's in a row. Just started on my 4.2oz bottle. So, its in the weekly work rotation. Was waiting for cooler weather to bring it out. 5 sprays is optimal for me.
It's great, right! Thank you very much for watching! Glad you love the fragrance!
My guess is that you have about $50 000 worth of fragrances. I wonder how often do you take some time just to stand there and admire your collection.That's what makes this channel the best of its kind.
Thank you so much for the support! It means a lot to me!
you've got some on your list that i also love! i've got to try and sniff Dior Feve Delicieuse. it sounds so good and delicious! although i appreciate very much the quality in Amouage Jubilation XXV the scent does not work for me unfortunately.
Aventus trumps Tauer! do a top ten leather scent list
Haha. That's a great idea! Thank you for the recommendation!
Excellent video my friend!!
Thank you!
My go to for this fall will be Kalemat Black by Arabian Oud. Would love to hear your take on it.
Nice vid! Aventus? Never heard of that juice. Loool!
Hahaha
Great list! Got a sample of Jubilation XXV recently from the decant shop. I really enjoy it. It's not so cold here yet, waiting til it gets cold to really test it out. I think that and Reflection man I definitely want a bottle of. Some of the other Amouage I've tried not so much, they're good, but not bottle good.
I'm also loving Parfums de Marly a heck of a lot. I need to try Herod for sure. I know I want a bottle of Oajan, that mofo works wonders on me. Check that one out if you get the chance if you haven't already, I love that stuff, seriously!
Well said! Both are fantastic houses. Oajan is beautiful! I love the warm, spicy, and sweet nuances! It reminds me of Ambre Narguile by Hermes!
amazing list Steven wow
Thank you very much!
Redolessence i my humble opinion creed aventus is no 1 in this list dior feve delicieuse smells more like Thierry mugler angel men
great vid Steven, was wondering if you've had a chance to smell Layton by Parfums de Marley, and what your thoughts on it are? keep up the good work, thanks again
That's one that I still need to try! Thank you for the recommendation!
My top FALL Niche is an easy list to come up with- WHY…?!?! OMG , Guerlain & Dior have this category locked-down period!!! Couldve easily added 2 more of each😳
1. Guerlain: Angelique Noire
2. Dior: Fève Délicieuse
3. Guerlain: Rose Barbare
4. Dior: Ambre Nuit
5. Francis Kurkdjian: Bacarrat Rouge 540

You're very welcome! Thank you for all of the constant support. It means a lot to me.
I knew Fève Délicieuses was in there when I saw it missing from the shelves in the back! :D
Hahaha. You're very perceptive! Thank you for watching!
υπέροχο βίντεο αδελφέ!
Euxaristo!!!! It means a lot!
YESSSS... THANK GOD YOU GOT A MIC!!!! LOL... Great review!!!
Hahaha! Thank you!

I think that Oud Wood is good for both fall and winter. I can see it being good for office wear. I say wear what makes you happy! Thank you for watching!
Awesome list Steven. Great job! Have you tried acqua di parma colonia leather? It's a great leather scent! Good alternative against Tuscan leather.
I have tried it at a friend's house, and it's quite good!
+Redolessence great! Will you consider it in your winter list?
I will have to try it again to determine if I want to buy it! Haha

Lovely selection as usual great taste as u said u put ur nose to a lot and u know what good means. I share the same background and I can tell about ur choices
Great review
Thank you!
GREAT GREAT GREAT LIST!!! Any idea where the find the pre-formulated Chergui…?!?! Where also can we find the non-magnetic Jubee 25…?!?!👑
Honestly, I wouldn't know where to find them. Sorry!
Great list..have 5 of them
Thank you very much!
Great List! I think Oud & Tobbaco are things i dont like smell in fragrances cause i tried Oud Wood & Tobbaco Vanille by Tom Ford & didn't like them. Can you recommend some Oud & Tobbaco based fragrances where they aren't so strong in the mix.
Yes! Try the Creeds Tabarome Millesime and Royal Oud! Both are very safe and not daring!
I love Chergui and LDDM!
Some of my favorites of all time! Not just for the fall.
sotd today Chergui a master piece...great list
Fantastic choice!
Steve your the Man!!
Man you the Steven!!
Hahaha. Thanks!
Question for Redolessence
I just started collecting Tom Ford Private Blend and I am up to 5 fragrances now. I'm hesitant to purchase more due to reading that at best fragrances will last 5 years if stored in a cool dark place. Advice on this would be appreciated as I would really like to collect more.
Please do a review on narciso rodriguez poudre.. I love your videos
Great list. We have similar taste.
Nice! I have 5 out of 10..
my favorite creed for the fall is Creed royal Mayfair and Santal
Fantastic choices!
i think you forgot adding the designer list in the description :)
creed aventus and Dior feve delious smell great. love them both.
Great taste! Haha. Thank you for watching!
your welcome. I always love watching your videos.
Agree on the parfums de marly Herod it's everything tobacco should have been , and more its stunning to wear and it's better value compared to Tom ford
Very well worded!
Your lists and reviews definitely have been enjoyable o me. Even tho I don't buy most of these. I try to keep my collection small. Do you have any signature scents??
Thank you very much! That means a lot to me! Aventus is the closest thing to a signature for me!
Hey redo, is aventus always going to be in your line up or will it be a thing of the past since they increase the price each year? Now its over four hundred dollars.
I know what you mean. I will always have a bottle in my collection, although I cringe at how expensive it's been getting.
nice fragrances, mr g :)
Thank you very much!
Hello, what's the shipping cost for sample perfumes to Sydney, Australia ?
Chergui is being discontinued?! Is this information confirmed? I live in Paris and have heard nothing of it!
I meant to say reformulated. Sorry about that.
Hey Steve,
I'm a student and don't have enough money, I want to buy VERY cheap fragrances (2) for the fall. Which should I get
Hmmm... you may be interested in my designer list which will come out soon!
what would I give to have your wall of fragrances ... I'm about to purchase Dior Boise D'Argeant and get a sample of Feve D. which one is more versatile?
Haha. Thanks! I would say that Bois d'Argent is more versatile!
Honey Oud is my next buy.
It's totally worth it in my opinion. I have a review coming out on it soon!
Bought a sample of it a while back and really liked it. Looking forward to your review.
Thank you!
Good vid son!!!!
Thank you!
Where do you buy your Creed Aventus, Steve?
I'm in Quebec, Canada...anyone have an idea on where I could find/test any of the fragrances on this list here in Canada?
Love Aventus never tried any amouge fragrances do you know what store I can find amouage.
can you review mont blanc individuel :D
Hi Steven...what places do you recomend to get samples/decants online?
I have been using Scent Split.com They have a lot of great brands and they are every affordable.
Can you recommend any Amouge! Im getting a sample of reflection man but there are so many chose from. Looking for something creamy or spicy with a seductive vibe to it. Nothing to harsh more towards a romantic night. Kind of like Armani Code Profumo.
Hmmm... that's a tough fragrance to find in the Amouage line. Try Jubilation. It's certainly creamy. Another fragrance in that same family is Dia, and you may like Sunshine if you're a fan of lavender. Thank you for watching!
+Redolessence Thank you. Staring to step up my frageance game & niche is really hard to find in store in Chicago. Can only find Creed in one store.
I know what you mean.
Some of these sound very interesting, unique list.. Looking snazzy.. some of you dudes in fragcom are just so GQ lol
Creed aventus or amouage jubilation XXV?
Tough choice! Aventus for the compliments and versatility, and Jubilation for the artistry.
Real OG
Hahaha. Thanks!
Wich is the com de garcon you mention?
I´m starting to really dislike top best lists cuz i feel it takes away the magic behind talking about a fragrance you love. I know its just my personal opinion, but I think this particular style of presenting fragrances needs a bit of a change. I´m a fan of the chanel and you definitely know what you´re talking, apart from the time you praised One Million. LoL
Really? Chergui has been discontinued?
Its not.
I made a mistake. I just meant to say reformulated.
Sunshineman man
what about creed Green Valley
Another great one! I don't own it, but I would put it in the spring category. Thank you for watching!
thank you. can you please tell me what the batch code is for that chergui?
I'd be more than happy to do that as soon as I get home!
i would appreciate that
