I think Jeremy will be 100% satisfied with this review:
- technically well made
- combination of Sauvage/Aventus/Cool Water
- good performance
- made to make money
And what you're describing as a scent profile sounds like an absolute nauseatingly screechy synthetic headache nightmare. I will likely never try it.
@@JoinTheProgress I picked it up out of interest and it's surprisingly quite pleasant albeit unnecessary if you have an officey blueish fragrance
Except he rated it in numerous videos 10 out of 10, perfect fragrance.
Still wouldnt pay for it at its current price
@@JoinTheProgress i was literally thinking like this at first, when i tried it. its hard to explain, it doesn't have identity. it really is a combination of all the mass appelaing frag, but doesnt smell the same, weird. but it works, it really works, you will get noticed, i got a lot of compliments wearing this than my blue fragrance (BDC, YSL Y EDP, Sauvage and dylan blue) its nothing ground breaking for sure, technically its niche but smells like a generic fresh, aquatic and close to blue frags, but it works. not for the collectors, but foe people who just want to wear something that works and be done with it. not for me, but it works for what it is, i give him credit for that. its long lasting too. performance is niche level, but smell is same ball park as your normal freshie or blue designer scent. when i smell this its something like what chanel, armani or dior would release for money. thats it.
'Technically brilliant but overpriced' and there we have it. Let's move on to the next fragrance :)
Everyone knew that man its obvious
“Well-crafted, with no personality.” Just like an office. Sounds perfect for what it’s meant to do.
oandersontech Never thought about it that way. Maybe the non uniqueness is a strength and not a weakness. Though the price is still tough to stomach.
Just like an office? What kind of hamster cage office do you work in!? lol
oandersontech “I didn’t say that anything felt like a hamster cage. Lighten up.”
You’re adorable when you delete your post to try harder! lmao I appreciate the attempt!
"Well-crafted, with no personality"....just like Jeremy!
@sbowesuk yeah, not worth it unless you're a CEO that goes to the office once a month.
Well crafted, but no personality... so it's the perfect office scent for corporations, good job Jeremy :)))))
lol
You're supposed to show personality in corporations.... You're not living in North Korea
@@Bucelcpsdr as long as you don't annoy anyone with your scent.
@@Bucelcpsdr for jeremy it's obviously not for the art just businnes

OK, so your are now my favourite fragrance expert by a mile. Your knowledge and sense of smell are incredible. How you compute the composition, explain it and suggest tweaks is sublime!
"When the profit supercedes the art I don't like that" amazing
I really LOVE your reviews! They're spot on, not only on the fragrance side but also on the art/passion side! Thank you!
My pleasure
I Love your straight talking honesty and unbiased opinion on things 👍👍
Love this review, very professional and honest.
Aaron, you are a breath of fresh air. You have a God given talent for recognizing fragrance notes and seemingly understanding how fragrances are constructed technically and creatively. Well done. Beyond that you express yourself well and don't seem fixated on catering to other people's expectations. i.e. you're honest in your assessments. I find this unique, refreshing, and much needed in the fragrance community. Well done brother. There is more than one way to review a fragrance and I appreciate your approach. I'm a bit tired of focusing on all of the old metrics that you tubers have been using to rate new scents.
I've been dying for this review! thank you! I look forward to your videos &/or professional opinion. You're such a beautiful soul...
Okay let’s be honest, if you’re working alongside somebody in a cubicle, are you really going to be wanting to smell their “personality and uniqueness” for 8 hours a day?
Just throw on black orchid
Only if they’re wearing Kouros
@@garbagejuice1 24hrs ard al zafran is black orchid for £12
@@dizzyghost4332 I have a couple of impressions of Tom ford, but black Orchid is ny favorite so I would never get a clone of that
I ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Capital letter “L” ! Love Black Orchid’s DNA, but that sh*t is wayyyy to f*cking strong. 😍/😡
Very fair review ! I love the way you describe the composition, very professional. We agree on the creativity point and craftsmanship !
The honesty you give your subscribers is awesome. No holding back. Passionate and unflinching in the eye of resistance. Love the vids.
Il never be bought and companies will never be allowed to send me bottles. I will always review what you guys want. Its important to always keep this interactive.
hyped to see your reaction!
I got this one at 60% discount and I only use it for the office, because it smells clean and boring! Excellent review!
Then you got it for the price I think its worth. Its lovely though. The perfumer did a good job
i got it at that price too with no regrets! smells terrific
50% for me and i'd only get it around that price
Bashar AR I got office for 50% off and date for 60% off. Office is ok fresh and day to day scent. My wife likes date better
How is it in the compliment factor?
This is fantastic!!! I’m so happy for you! I love the new packaging...it looks awesome!
I absolutely love the way you describe and talk about fragrances ♥️
Your facial expression in the thumbnail says everything!
Oh I've been waiting for this!!
This is why I love you ATH... there's no time for bullshit with you & that brutal honesty is infectious. On top of being a gorgeous soul, you're so free & pure. Love everything about you my brother.
Have been waiting for this lmao!
I just want to add that I found your channel around 1k subs. After watching one video, I was hooked! You deserve every bit of recognition and I am very proud to see you surpasses 10k subs! Keep up the great work and long live the unicorn!
Yass and long live the Unicorn family. Thank you for keeping watching:)
What a great breakdown of this. You're the first person to explain this fragrance perfectly.
Really tho? It smells nothing like aventus or sauvage l. Meanwhile my man Aaron charges $170 for 50ml. Foh
New subscriber after watching your video with Monika Cioch. Two of the most honest reviewers and can see that from your passion for what you guys do. I hold both your reviews and opinions the highest degree amongst the numerous reviewers I’ve come across who just seem to want to get loads of content and likes on their channel. You guys aren’t afraid to tell it how it is and go against the grain.
Looking forward to more of your content!
Cheers 🥃
Congratulations on 10k subs in no time at all. Great review - summed it up in a nut shell.
I love your reviews and how expressive and passionate you are..keep it up.
Aaron you are magical/brilliant...I love your energy and candor. Thanks for being authentically you. 😉😉😉
And he is handsome as hell
I’ve been waiting for this videos for a while
Perfect analysis. When I first saw Jeremy I thought “style over substance”.
With his social footprint he could have made something unbelievable and unique. That’s why I can’t wait to test your products Aaron.
Ah. Thank you:)
I was very intrigued by you mentioning there being a lot of maths involved in the creation of this fragrance as I've never actually heard or read much about the use of maths in perfumery. That is something I would love to hear more about in one of your future videos :)
Oh yes. Its the one thing Im most fascinated about. When mine get to the final point all the % go into each other. People can smell the maths. Every time!!! Its quite amazing tbh.
@@AaronTerenceHughes Very interesting, I've recently started getting into perfumery and I've realised how hard it is to find good information on the inner workings of this art. So the information you are sharing with us is very much appreciated.
Congrats on 10K, Aaron! Keep em coming!
Thank you
Much awaited review.
Honest review.
Pedestrian aroma.
5.1 out of 10.
Respectfully🇨🇦
this man is smooth.. from the intro to the hand gestures everything he does and says makes one take notice
Honest and authentic review - and exactly what I imagine it would be like
"The perfumer was not allowed to be unleashed" 😆
So much respect for your honest and very professional reviews
Thank you :)
As soon as I saw this notification, I was like congrats on the 10k, ATH!!! Much love! 💙
Yassss. Thank you. You been here since there start
@@AaronTerenceHughes I was an instant fan after the first time I saw you (your first appearance on Chris's channel). I am so happy that you made your own channel. You are a breath of dirty air. I fucking love it, and adore you for it!
Congrats on 10k 💯
I am relatively new to the fragrance world. I must say that I have to thank Jeremy for introducing me to this new and exciting interest.
I think Jeremy had a great idea in making it clearer which fragrances to use for different occasions and it could have helped many people. However, I think his execution could have been different.
In general my impression of watching fragrance videos for the last 3 months is that many reviewers lack the substance to move things further beyond personal tastes, and this is where I think Aaron fits in perfectly. I think Aaron's videos are amazing and although I needed to get used to his style, it has made me a bigger fan. Love the down to earth attitude, creative expressiveness and subject matter expertise.
I have it, and I agree with you all, I'm happy that you made a fair review about it, the performance for this kind of versatile perfume it's just excellent, I know that is just not the most important thing, but this kind of strength, that you can be smelling one full day and doesn't give you sickness in my experience for a versatile perfume like this is difficult to find
Very lovely fair review mate 🦄 incredibly balanced. A tough one to take on but so well and eloquently spoken about 😁
Thank you
Great review Aaron! Very honest and professional! Love your reviews keep them coming!
Thank you
@@AaronTerenceHughes You are quite welcome! 😁
Awesome content! Keep up the great work, Aaron! Never give up
Thank you:)
You are quickly becoming my favorite reviewer. The way you articulate the smell of the fragrances with your words and animated gestures of the hands and arms are brilliant. Keep it coming!
Its hard to go back to listening to reviews with such vague descrptions.
cj miller, exactly!
Aaron Terence Hughes, I am sorry that you have taken my comment as condescending. I did not mean it that way at all, I really am a huge fan.
I watched because I knew you would give an honest review and you're entertaining. Thank you
Always honest:)
Better than I was expecting. Something like Sauvage and Aventus with a price point in between. Sounds like that was the brief.
Always honest! That’s what I like about your reviews. Plus, you know what you’re talking about.
I appreciate that!
3:00 the review begins
I like how youre honest and still professional at the same time lol. not just blindly bashing jeremy like the rest of fragrance community but an honest opinion
There is no way in the wild days of dreams that I would pay that much for a fragrance when there is so many great accomplishments out there ... the review is always honest and interesting, and answers the question as to why .
Spot on review!
Congrats on 10k, well deserved. The only way up is up!
Thank you:)
You gotta love how this dude explains his thoughts. Brilliant.
Well balanced review. Nice one Aaron 👍🏻
Thank you Tony
Just discovered you and I'm new to the world of Fragerances. I have to say I really appreciate the fact you sell stuff in smaller denominations like 10ml etc... It #1 allows me to try something without committing to a giant bottle that takes up a ton of space when I don't even know I I'll like what I'm buying #2 I can afford to try more Fragerances from your line. I wish more companies marketed this way. Also I appreciate that you use high quality ingredients without charging ridiculous prices. You respect your customers and that makes you much more respectable in my eyes. Jeremy Fragerance should take note.. I'm sure his products smell fine but he lost all respect from me when he said "the cost per unit is extremely low I could sell my perfumes for pennies on the dollar if I wanted to I just choose not to" it's exceptionally arrogant to price stuff in the $200-$300 niche tom ford type range when your first product just hit the market 9 months ago.
Excellent Aaron!
Remember to review Desert Falcon Edition Deluxe from Arabian Oud, just waiting your thoughts on that fragrance to see if it worth the price. 👌🏼 and if you can review Aseel from the same house. Thanks for your takes on all these fragrances from your professional point of view.
First time watching a video from you .I really like your analysis. You were fair but critical. I'm still looking for that 'next' scent and while "Office" seems good it might not be for me at the price point.
So I haven't browsed your content for a few weeks but you're really blowing up, swear last I checked you had about 1k subs! Well in my man 🤙
Scott Hodge it is scary and took me by surprise. I had to have extra therapy sessions as it’s a bit anxiety producing!!!
@@AaronTerenceHughes I can imagine so but it's not a surprise, it's quite refreshing to see someone say it how it is given how bogged down the industry is with sponsorships etc. If anything I was more surprised how late you got into the TH-cam game! Hope all is well now anyway, I'll be looking to drive headfirst into your frags this year and very excited for it.
I subscribed because he said "and all that bull--it" . lovely video, honest feedback, what's not to love? thanks for your reviews!
Aaron, great idea to start your own channel.I’m your follower from now on
Thanks for the review! I liked it. Cheers, from Brazil.
For me it's a fragrance that does what it's supposed to do. I got it for department store prices during a sale on his website. It's not outstanding, it's not of poor quality either. It's just alright. Only gripe I have is the presentation/bottle, you're not getting your money's worth with that, the atomizer does a great job of disbursing the fragrance but it feels like I'm pressing down on a calculator button.
Congratulations on 10k subs
Thank you:)
your review makes perfect sense. i have watched many of jeremy's videos and he is passionate about fragrances. my critique of jeremy is that he is always talking about the same fragrances in all of his videos, just in slightly different ways. and he does talk about sauvage and creed a lot! it makes sense that would have created a scent that attempted to bridge some sort of gap between those two worlds. but usually there is a lot of empty space beneath bridges, isn't there.
not only does he talk about the same fragrances but he'll flip flop about what he says about them all the time :(
Unleash a perfumer. Make art not profit. Its its groundbreaking then profit follows.
Enjoyed your take on "OFFICE" for Men, be safe and BLESSED
Same to you
Honest review,, aroma from heaven
On point review i believe, pure professional n honest. Fragrance enthusiasts didnt get hyped with it, its just the pricing issue that made ppl feel they're being used or schemed somehow from jeremy's marketing point of view. His followers were waiting a magnetic but affordable fragrance since they trust his taste in perfumes, which in return he gave them a basic double priced one. He ignored his faithful followers n offered them his greedy perspetive only diverting towards making the money of them, n that pissed everyone off bcz of his trick. Anw thanks for ur review Aaron. Done with this, moving on to another perfume journey with u buddy
Issam Alia that’s so sad .once you mess with people’s money they never come back. You can fool people. People actually know if it’s worth it. Marketing can only take you so far. Very sad as I would think people wouldn’t buy from
Him again.
can't wait for you to see the price on date
Fantastic video Aaron, I think you really nailed this one! I managed to find a cheap bottle of this and curiosity got the better of me.
It arrived today and I was actually surprised by how nice it was, albeit a bit boring. I think it achieves what it sets out to do though and for ~£60 I can't complain!
Can't wait to see your review of Date!
Edit: also can't wait to get my hands on Zeus and help support positive mental health (and smelling great)! What you're doing for charity is incredibly generous and I can't wait to see what's next!
I think we raised £600 in one day for Start. Il know tomorrow when we send out Zeus. Il then transfer the funds Tuesday Morning and put the amount on the site. Thank you for supporting an amazing charity helping others who cant afford therapy. Zeus is actually a lovely day or office scent. Even though I have no idea what goes on in an office. I presume a lot of boring things from people and paperwork
@@AaronTerenceHughes That's amazing! I'm very happy I was able to contribute and I can't wait to wear the fragrance. And thank you for supporting such a great charity! I think it's going to be extra special wearing it knowing the good it's doigg for charity.
I quit my job recently to study for a PhD so I don't have to worry too much about 'office scents', hopefully this is a good laboratory scent though!
You keep it real good price on your frags not overpriced it 200 is a lot for a frag. Humble I love how you review the big names and really rate them not sell them
luv ur reviews
Nice vid Aaron!!!
Like this approach 👌
Love your vids👌🏻 I really love your neck tattoo, its AMAZING! Looks like your left arm has the Flower of Live pattern! Or some sacred geometry🙏🏻 Great style
Peace ☮ ✌
All of the arm is being removed by a laser atm. Going to go over it with something else. The neck will join into the back of the head and back. Im all about lotuses, Sacred art and unicorns. (I have a few unicorn tattoos but my favourite looks like a stampeding powerful horse).
Thanks very much for this critical review. I have been looking at it. I think a good degree of both conservatism and mass appeal is expected. As its name suggests, it's truly designed for business settings. Jeremy, who has fantastic energy should indeed take advantage of his current mass appeal. Prices though will likely go down overtime...
Have you ever been to the French Riveria? My mother was born near Grasse. Old School Classy French Perfume(she used to wear) and she use to tell me there was a School of Perfumery around this area in Grasse.
I went once when I was a child with my family. :)
It is also an anti-travalo bottle. You can remove the nozzle, but the tube is too wide for the port at the bottom of a travalo.
Also great review as always
Thank you:)
I am so happy you do what you do, what a lovely talented guy. It massively helps the average street nose make the right choices.
I go into each review knowing that people are trusting me on how to spend there money. So I try to be very clear on what is worth the money and what isn't
This is the best, and fairest review I've seen on Office For Men (as I would expect of you, Aaron). A lot of people have heaped scorn on Office For Men, largely because they don't like its creator. I knew that it wouldn't be your 'type' of fragrance (too safe and boring!), but you're absolutely right when you say that it's technically brilliant. It is. It's a well-crafted, good fragrance that does exactly what its creator wanted. Would I buy it? Probably not, because it's too similar to others that I have, but if it was priced less expensively I'd certainly recommend it to others as a pleasant, compliment-getting fragrance with superb performance. Thanks for your honesty and integrity, Aaron.
Paul Woolgar my pleasure.im interested in the art not the face behind the brand. I’m not into negatively at all!
@@AaronTerenceHughes Best reviewer around! Love and light. x
I have never smelt the fragrances but I know when you say it my have a Dior and creed in it because the to are his favorite. I have not watched your review on “date” but i know it has a bit of JPG super man in it.
ATH you are correct. Jeremy indicated what he wanted, and that's what he got. No ways that a master perfumer like Alberto Morrilas couldn't produce, something with a bit more punch. It's a lovely fragrance, just something that is safe, and nothing more.
100%
Now I really want to know your thoughts on the Date perfume. Review this next please.
Aaron - This is the difference between ATH and Jeremy Fragrance. JF is all hype, Office for Men was launched as being a limited run exclusive fragrance. ATH is so much more. When we buy one of your fragrance we get a little bit of your soul in each bottle. When I received my order my invoice had a handwritten note from you thanking me for supporting your work and your charity, I bet no-one gets that from Jeremy. Don't change, stay true to yourself and may you go from strength to strength.
Martin Randall 100% each fragrance has a piece of music attached and a story. I don’t create because I have to I create because I love to. I actually underprice as I want people to have real oud. Rose and real concentrates. I think I’m
The polar opposite of jerrermy
Arron which one of your fragrances would you recommend for me to try for my first one, I love fragrances like herod, black phantom, straight to heaven and initio side effect.
“Pretty on the outside,but basic”
I totally get that. The opening is nice but it just transforms into an average perfume you’d buy on the mainstream market. Personally not my style but I do acknowledge the work that went into it,excellent review Aaron!
Thank you
Got some popcorn for this one
Rowan Budd O’Connor Thats the date for men
A man of his words!!!!
😭 it’s about time
LOL the look on his face in that thumb nail. LOL. I was thinking after watching Joy review Date for men. What would ATH think of these perfumes and the thumbnail pretty much embodied that thought.
Your passion is intoxicating
I hope it inspires you to be amazing and unique:)
Congrats on 10k! This is totally the type of fragrance I avoid. Tried Sauvage (sounds similar to office) once and it gave me a headache. So synthetic.
Juanito Ganancias office and sauvage are not nearly the same
iven G which do you prefer?
For those mentioning Aaron's professionalism and honesty...ALL of his reviews are done in this manner.
Thank you Chris. Im not here to bash and create drama, Im here because I love the art of perfumery.
Purchased a package 2 years ago. Office:POWER, very divisive. Date: barf. Unisex: nice, don't overspray. Price-ridiculous. Bang on analysis!
Don't know what he was thinking when pricing Office but there's a second market we go to for 150€ - 100ml bottle. That pricing range is awesome. I like this fragrance. It's doing his job wonderful.
Worth to have among all the niche/indie complexed fragrances we all have.
Good video Aaron, I never got the hype with Jeremy so I’m like whatever 🤷♂️ good professional honest review though 👍
Thank you Kevin:)
Aaron do a review of Encre Noir Extreme version. Thanks, great reviews!
Totally get your sentiments. I got it for 60€ and it performs really well, so I'm happy with mine. Not planning on getting Date though
perfect price
@@AaronTerenceHughes agreed!
