I stopped using perfume for a while since I had some rough time in life previously. Recently things are getting better and better. So I finally get back to my little perfume world. I almost forgot how good some of them are, a great perfume could truly boost my mood or even bring me to some photorealistic places in mind. Another great video Ramsey, and I wish you all well.
Thank you DLQualia... there is no doubt... i am a creature of habit, without going through my perfume ritual everyday I would be lost 😂 Glad you are doing better mate! PS I still have a few more of those samples you sent me way back when i need to talk about on mu channel ✌️
The Tom Ford releases were groundbreaking IMO. Tuscan Leather is still my ATF fragrance, also love Tobacco Vanille, Noir De Noir and Oud Wood. 2007 really was a great year for frags, thanks for sharing Ramsey.
I totally agree with you and tuscan leather is my fav tom ford too... on a side note we need to get you over this covid.. i havent seen Mike V throw a jab in forever 😂
Great video. What a year. Great releases and Luca Turin’s book which gets a lot of flack but boy did I find it useful and fun. After 2007 it want a bit flat imo.
I still think there are some good ones coming up & we still have most of my favorite Amouage frags left to go... but this is where it really started to go downhill... the last decade or so 😒
Long live Reflection Man ! Next year (2008.) is my favourite. Jubilation was the best creation of that year. Thank you Ramsey. The smell of this night - Green Irish Tweed. Greetings from Serbia...
@@RamseytheRam Yes. Everything is wonderful here. I am on a vacation 'till the end of July. Next year my friend from Seattle will come to Serbia and my wish is vintage Bel Ami, if you can find it for me in America. I can send you money and my friend can bring it to me.
It instantly just got super rare... like all the remaining bottles got snatched up or something 🤷♂️... but I will keep an eye out and If I see one for a good price I will hit u up 🍻

This is quite a fresh way of discussing fragrances. By years. nice! Btw, You would be sad to know that most of the Tf private blends are butchered and watered down these days including tobacco vanille. The richness is gone! Hoping my bottle gets through more maceration over time and becomes lil stronger. What a shame. Also in 2008 they released another masterpiece called Italian Cypress, which is sadly again discounted long back. i cherish my 30ml decant only from time to time. if you by chance get a sample or so try it. i'm sure you'll appreciate it.
Italian Cypress is Tom Ford Paying Homage to one of his favorite fragrances of all time which is Halston Z-14 ... thanks for the kind words and get your nose on a vintage version of Z-14 if you like Italian Cypress 😊
I have never smelled Italian cypress...but I love Z-14 so if its anything like my vintage bottles of Z-14 (yes bottles! Its good enough for a backup) it is amazing.... but you can save yourself lots of money and buy z-14 instead
@@RamseytheRam & you are on point with aqua di parma :-) what made me angry, is that colonia club is discontinued, because I used the aftershave balm and a spritz from egoiste platinum
Pavarotti is very nice. Glad I got it. Love Reflection Man. Narciso Rodriguez For Him was strange just for a moment, then wonderful, then that musk. I think I got my decant came from the newer bottles. It's a decant, so I don't know. I was hoping the musk would tone down, but nope, it just kept on amplifying. That 15 minutes to half an hour was wonderful though, but the musk overtook everything. It was so overly synthetic. Oh well, most likely my skin. Certain notes just pound off my skin. Journey Man for cypriol. I don't think I own a bottle of it, but I do still have a number of Amouage samples. I do enjoy Journey Man. I have to check my Amouage box for what I have. I do know I want Dia Man. I do enjoy Homme by Xerjoff. I like Red Hoba and Richwood. Had a couple of chances to get Richwood at solid cost, but didn't pull the trigger fast enough. I had like 10 dabber samples I got free from Twisted Lily and LuckyScent but mistakenly I gave them away. Again, oh well. TBH, I would rather own a bottle of Purdistance M. I have a nice decant of M, but if I can score a bottle of it, an older one, I'm going for it. Ya know when you have these little decants, you sometimes can be overly protective of them. I like Russian Adam's take on this. Use them, you're doing the perfume a disservice by not. Yup, gotta get a bottle of M and spray away. I have that bottle of Gucci Pour Homme ll. I got it at such a great cost too. I remember when I first sprayed it on, I thought, this is a special scent. Relaxing. It's the first time I ever thought of putting perfume on before bed. Thanks for 2007. Bioshock, Portal. Mass Effect. The White stripes. The beginning of the Finacial Crisis. No Country for Old Men.
Another great episode! And a cracker of a year in perfumes, especially niche and high-end designer. Out of curiosity, does your father watch and comment on your videos?
I know it didnt last on me forever but it lasted longer than 2 hours on me... maybe 6 to 7 if I had to go off memory 🤔 I will wear it again soon and do a full review very soon 🍻
Thats funny someone wrote earlier saying they thought it had to much musk 😊 Another fragrance in the same style I like even MORE than Narciso Rodriguez for him is Tom Ford Noir Anthracite... amped up patch in that frag & maybe even my 2nd or 3rd fav Tom Ford Fragrance of all time✌️✌️
Gucci Guilty absolute is closer to Amouage Opus XI to my nose... love them both but as far as comparing the two discontinued "concrete" smell frags I prefer Tom Ford Noir Anthracite because of that amped up patchouli note... but Narciso Rodriguez for him EDT is still really good IMO 😊
The Chanel is pronounced "Bwah Deh Eee". I need to get my nose on some Chanels but I hear they've been murdered and they keep getting more expensive, irregardless.
@@RamseytheRam Emel made me break my No Buy period for what I think is a 1973 bottle of Guerlain's Chamade EDT 102ml.
