Philosophy Fresh Cream is a lovely fluffy milky vanilla and the matching moisturizer is awesome too. Gilded Fox by Pinrose is a buttery cocoa with rum and vetiver and wood, it’s nicely natural and edible. Paithani by Penhaligons is just like Indian cardamom milk fudge with a lovely sandalwood basenotes. Reve de Nirmala by Molinard has a fermented sour mango patchouli top notes but a surprising warm airy toasty Cocoa Pebbles cereal base. Signorina Misteriosa blackberries and milk mousse.
Madera by Omnia Profumi is a butterscotch caramel. Note Vanille by Micallef is a boozy, citrus fruity, licorice spicy vanilla. Chia by Farmacia SS. Annunziata is a sugary, nutty vanilla. Captured in Amber and Café Cacoa from the Indie House En Voyage are chocolatey ambers and Cafe' adds a hint of coffee. Guerlain's Oriental Brulant is a heavy Benzoin/Styrax, almond, Tonka, vanilla. Red Aoud by Montale is a warm, spicy, baked cookie. These are just a few that I love. This is my favorite genre of fragrances. Thanks for sharing your list.
I cannot stop wearing Ambra Aurea and Olympic Amber by Olympic Orchids. They aren’t gourmands (I’m not a gourmand lover) but they are so dense and honeyed that they are “delicious” for me!
i just found out from you naxos is honey and tobacco Sebastian, wow this would be on my buylist now oh my goodness, thanks a lot for this review Sebastian 😁
Very enjoyable! I got a sample of Dulcis in Fundo after watching one of your reviews but unfortunately didn't work with my chemistry. Lots of new ideas to try! Thanks. I have a small perfume collection with no gourmands. I need something delicious, so this was helpful!
Its complicated when some people dont let some offerings to bloom on your skin, this is the case of Tom Ford Private Blend Vanille Fatale, some folks bashed the so called flanker or Tobacco Vanille which its not at all. This to me is the best TF Private Blend release from the last hit of Tom Ford Tobacco Oud Intense, also People keep comparing the LEGO bottle with Xerjoff NAXOS, its nuts to compare, the compliment getter galore that NAXOS has no other XERJOFF offering has that magnet effect. Thanks for sharing this magnificent review my friend, thanks for your Honesty!
I love Battito D'Ali! I put it on my skin when I was at Osswald NYC and wanted to wear it for a bit. Long story short, left without purchasing it and I've regretted it ever since. Definitely I'll be asking for it for my bday in May. Great list! The only two I'd have added are AdP Mandorlo di Sicilia (reminiscent of a root beer float) and MFK Baccarat Rouge 540 edp.
Oh I love Benjoin Bohème your n°6 ! I'm really interested by Battito d'Ali, Profumum Roma is a good brand, specially on gourmand fragrance, the way they use vanilla is very delicate, sweet but not too sugary. In this season very appropriate fragrances, thanks !
I like how you define delicious, and truly enjoy your #1 pick and those of the others that I own. The Profumum Roma choices are very cool, and want to sample them soon.
Great list, for me, I too would have By The Fireplace on my list (been rocking that one lately), Sweet Redemption by Kilian, Benevolence by HoS, and for some reason I think I’d add Oud Satin Mood to that list (it’s just a beast and reminds me of a fancy candy).
Well done, Seb! Naxos had been at the TOP of my to try list for more than a year now. Personally, even though I enjoy sniffing them, I am not confident on the wearability of heavy gourmand types especially the overly sweet ones. Any of the sweet smelling ones that are appropriate in an office environment? And have you tried Choco Musk yet?
Have you heard of the brand Speziali Fiorentini Eau De Parfum Spray, Fig and Poppy or their Caramel fragrance? Is their a way you can review this fragrance, thank you!
All in all great list as always! Lots of stuff I wasn’t able to get my nose on, bit that’s why we all crave those lists, don’t we? Battito d’ali on me smells like an expensive body lotion in the drydown, I absolutely love it, but for me it’s quite the odd one out in your list
great list. I just recently got Intoxicated by Kilian...... awesome. I love it, though I think is more a male fragrance then unisex. But still wear it. It has a great longevity, for me about 6 hours, and i love the sweetnes and the coffee at the end
Gotta check out a TJ Maxx! And subjectively, off the top of my head, Cartier's L'Envol because of the honey note and Lubin's Akkad smelling of vanilla/amber.
I really love Molinard house, many unique and high quality scents which that can be found for really cheap. Love Mugler's Hot Cologne, really have to try more from their line. Vanilla Fatale truly incredible, really want to get it next to one of my favorties Tobacco Vanille. Really want to try Maison Margiela, but not yet to be found in my country. And Naxos, my top 5 all time favorite next to Pure Havane, stunning and long lasting, strong honey with lots of lavender and fresh cigar spice, very smooth and comforting, recently bought a new bottle on a Black Friday for 150 euros, old bottle design is just amazing, a lot of worry if scent changed with new bottles, rest assured, scents are really the same.
Sebastian!! I CANNOT believe you like Choc Mat & do not like Choc Greedy! I am the opposite! Mat smells like choc covered cheese to me. I have both, never use the Mat. My fave WAS Aquolina Chocolovers, boy what a mistake they made discontinuing that one & keeping all of those nasties....& I am sure you have this, but Al Rehab Choco Musk OIL, not spray. The spray is terrible.
Maybe one day soon but my collection is currently unmanageable so it's going to be really tough to shoot something. But you can always watch the old one here: th-cam.com/video/-ni8hyB6Cng/w-d-xo.html but maybe on the 3rd anniversary of this video I will have a new one done so please stay tuned! :)
I heard that Dior was launching a new collection of Dior Privee fragrances but I also heard they are light but I have not tested them. As soon as I experience them I will report back.
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews I’ve been meaning to ask about these too. Please let use know what the deal is with these when you get a chance try them. I’ve been keeping an eye on Dior’s website, last I checked they aren’t even available there yet. Lighter you say...how much lighter could they be???
You forgot to include some of my favorites in your list starting with Herod by PdM, Back to Black and Apple Brandy by Kilian, Feve Delicieuce, Salt Caramel by Shay Blue, ...
I wish Vanille Fatale smelled like how you described it :( All I smell is very strong leather. I love vanilla scents but every time I smell Vanille Fatale I fell like I have to throw up. I tried it so many times. And every time I had to wash it off :(
Love the Profumum Dulce, Battito de Ali, Tihota, want to sniff the Gorilla Card. Coffee. I'll add Back to Black, MAC Velvet Teddy, JHAG Mmmm, D600, by K Love (don't be shy), SDV, Dame Chocolate Man, Decadence edp, MM Lipstick On, MAC Candy Yum Yum, Alien Liqueur, Menthe Fraiche, TF Vert d' Encens, Black Opium.
Thank you for reviewing so many different unique scents from so many fragrance houses. I had no idea there are so many interesting and good choices.

Craig Karoses your picks sound DELISH!
Great list man! I loved the video you did breaking down Intoxicated vs AMen, super helpful and you're 100% right on the differences
I cannot stop wearing Ambra Aurea and Olympic Amber by Olympic Orchids. They aren’t gourmands (I’m not a gourmand lover) but they are so dense and honeyed that they are “delicious” for me!
I like wearing cardamom coffee to bed. So scrumptious!
Amazing, great list Sebastian. I have several on my to buy list.
By the Fireplace and Lipstick on are really good. Great vid
Unique heaven for gourmand here

Montale chocolate greedy, and Montale sweet vanilla are both amazing
Cafe tuberosa is Great too. Gotta try the one from Diptyque as well

Thanks, Tom, for stopping by to watch my delicious fragrances video. I appreciate it and I hope all is well in the South Bay! :)
Great vid!! Cafe Tuberosa is one of my favourite scents💖💖💖
Solid list my friend , but I prefer Feve delicieuse instead Tonka! Always a pleasure to watch your videos and know more about fragrances
So far I have observed...you are the true perfume Guru...salute
Great list, for me, I too would have By The Fireplace on my list (been rocking that one lately), Sweet Redemption by Kilian, Benevolence by HoS, and for some reason I think I’d add Oud Satin Mood to that list (it’s just a beast and reminds me of a fancy candy).
Have you tried pg 10 aomassai? I love that one. Really want to get into kilian fragrances though
Thank You for the great 👍🏽 content.

All in all great list as always! Lots of stuff I wasn’t able to get my nose on, bit that’s why we all crave those lists, don’t we? Battito d’ali on me smells like an expensive body lotion in the drydown, I absolutely love it, but for me it’s quite the odd one out in your list

Thank you so much, you are amazing.
Great list as usual.
Nice stuff....Performance Roma took my heart
great list. I just recently got Intoxicated by Kilian...... awesome. I love it, though I think is more a male fragrance then unisex. But still wear it. It has a great longevity, for me about 6 hours, and i love the sweetnes and the coffee at the end
Gotta check out a TJ Maxx! And subjectively, off the top of my head, Cartier's L'Envol because of the honey note and Lubin's Akkad smelling of vanilla/amber.
What do you think of Al Contrario by Tiziana Terenzi as a gourmand?
I think it works. Not something I haven gotten into but I enjoy TT brand a lot. I'll check this release out soon again! :)
Where do you buy a lot of your niche fragrances may I ask? These are all new for me 😍
Some great hidden gem mate. Great list 👍🏽
I enjoyed this delicious perfumes review ,actually I liked atelier cologne It's just delicious .
I really love Molinard house, many unique and high quality scents which that can be found for really cheap.
Love Mugler's Hot Cologne, really have to try more from their line.
Vanilla Fatale truly incredible, really want to get it next to one of my favorties Tobacco Vanille.
Really want to try Maison Margiela, but not yet to be found in my country.
And Naxos, my top 5 all time favorite next to Pure Havane, stunning and long lasting, strong honey with lots of lavender and fresh cigar spice, very smooth and comforting, recently bought a new bottle on a Black Friday for 150 euros, old bottle design is just amazing, a lot of worry if scent changed with new bottles, rest assured, scents are really the same.
Would really like your take on Armani prive Oud D'Arabie .....

Maybe one day soon but my collection is currently unmanageable so it's going to be really tough to shoot something. But you can always watch the old one here: th-cam.com/video/-ni8hyB6Cng/w-d-xo.html but maybe on the 3rd anniversary of this video I will have a new one done so please stay tuned! :)
You got something right::Naxos is perfection in a bottle. No way to find it at discounters though, but compared to others Xerjoffs is well priced.
Naxos is great.👌
Sebastian , what's the story of the 25 new releases from maison christian dior collection ???
I heard that Dior was launching a new collection of Dior Privee fragrances but I also heard they are light but I have not tested them. As soon as I experience them I will report back.
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews. thank you

Mine are ..... by the fireplace and spicebomb extreme (i know spicebomb extreme isn't a gourmand, but it reminds me a warm cinnamon pie)...
I think it should be delicious for sure! :)
Amazing 👍

Oajan by Parfums de Marley, Dior Homme Intense/Parfum, and Noir Extreme by Tom Ford :)
Choaclat Matt Amzing
😋
Great videos. Just one thing. Please say battito dali. It's not battito de Ali.
Batito de Ali is beautiful
I wish Vanille Fatale smelled like how you described it :(
All I smell is very strong leather.
I love vanilla scents but every time I smell Vanille Fatale I fell like I have to throw up. I tried it so many times.
And every time I had to wash it off :(
If you had to recommend just 1 for a female- which one would it be?
Tihota or Wonder Bouquet! :)
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews thank you very much!!!!! Great video!!!!!
