Watching this drinking my coffee (my Italian espresso straight up no sugar no creamer crap) I don’t smoke anymore though. Great vid as per uush. You really have a natural talent and ability to teach btw.
Thanks Nicky.. Italian Espresso no sugar is the way to go... I dont smoke anymore either btw... but I love a good smoke or Tobacco note in a perfume now a days 😂😂😂
Omfg that’s why I love Smokey notes and materials! Birch tar, castorium, choya raal, guaiac, etc.. cuz I smoked for like 20 years. And a good tobacco note too.. chefs kisses. I’m making a tobacco tincture rn it smells like a fresh pack of camel studs.
Hi Ram! Fantastic video!!! 🙌👏👏👏 I’d add Aurelien Guichard’s Encens Suave and Kerosene Follow to the coffee list, imho. Some super cool and rare gems you gave there! Always adding to my “to sniff” list!
Wow, we have a connection beyond perfume. I also went through the ordeal of Catholic School, but perhaps now in retrospect, it was an introduction of things to come. I have not had the pleasure of sampling the Endsor Ouds but know I would love them even if I cannot afford them. Thanks again Ramsey for yet another awesome video!
Thank you Phyllis... this EO2 is kinda hard to love but it has been 13 hours since I initially applied it and late dry down is really lovely... I will say if you want a church incense check out Andy Tauer Incence Extreme, Heeley Cardinal & Armani Bois d'Encens are really good incense frags along with The house of Matriarch Devotion if you want an "all natural" take on incense
Great Topic,Coffee for sure the beverage of many faucets and variants tried and proven across the great divide ,and similarly in fragrance. My particular favorite would be coffee and tobacco as it happens, one stand out is Arazona Sonset from Icon parfum a small artisan house from USA 🇺🇸, Is it amazing,original,unique? Don’t know for sure but to me it’s just my dad ,my hero the banisher of demons at night,the destroyer of my demons by day ,oh yes heroes do exist not only in comic books or the big screen they are real all around us daily in plain sight,if we only take the time to notice. So yeah coffee and tobacco is my most comforting scent whenever the demons dare to show themselves,a couple of sprays and dad is with me and then all is right with the world cheers Rams ,next time you see your old man give him a hug for no particular reason just because you can🙏
Now it's time to cheers with coffee, to prevent sleeping. My coffee fragrance suggestion ( and Rachel, I guess) is Kerosene - Follow. Great indie fragrance. Here, in my favourite cafeteria, I like to drink coffee with milk and honey (with Mozart kugeln) and I'm gonna test Montale's - Ristretto Intense Caffe. If you have tried Intoxicated by Kilian and tea latte in Starbucks, you can tell us do they have similarities. Tea latte is so delicious ! Cheers Ramsey... P. S.

I dont have enough room on the shelf to open them or I would 🤦♂️ I have never smelled Follow... actually I have never smelled anything from Kerosene tbh ... but lots of people love it so I have to try it one day... just skip the montale mate lol 🤢
@@RamseytheRam I know that Montale and Mancera are both weak, but if I can keep just Red Tobacco from Mancera, I thought it would be fair enough to have one from Montale. Just for fun. For 3 or 4 days I will buy Hermes - Bel Ami (50 ml shaker bottle, splash, vintage from 1986.), and Givenchy Gentleman from the 70's. I can't wait to try that leather chypre, which is in your's top 10 list. And I'm sure that you can somehow reorganize your bottles on the shelfes so that Great Britain and Heute Luxe can stay opened in all theirs glory. It is a hot summer morning in my city. Time for breakfast, coffee with ice cream and thinking of which one from this review to buy.
Love 'Fidelis', although it's definitely not an alternative to 'The Moon'. I agree with you when you said you can see the similar thought processes which went into both compositions. I initially bought the wee travel size, but when it arrived I knew it was FBW. Thanks Ram.
You nailed a majority of my favorites I'll add.., Carpe Cafe by Gallagher.... And Awake by Akro.... Keep up the good work my friend. 🙏..... Nice Sotd btw😏
Perfect timing as I see that John (Pegg) just released his sequel to Follow called Followed. Synchronistically adding cocoa and caramel. 😄 You're connected you are.
52 minutes isn't enough felt like 20 to me. I vote for 2 hours =D. Regarding New Haarlem, you mentioned Rochas Man, I'm curious to know if you've tried Michael Jordan Legend? If so, how is it?
@@RamseytheRam You mentioned scent land in this video. I just searched for some reviews on Legend and he actually made a review a while back. Quite the interesting setup LoL!
Ramsey, I am a boutique coffee roaster here in Australia and I am always looking for the best coffee fragrance. I am lucky enough to have a bottle of the original TMPC I purchased in Perugia in 2011 on a family holiday ( love it but quite a soft fragrance) and a few ml left of the spectacular inside man. Had a sample of Yohij , it was incredible. Chris also high recommend, ( don’t laugh) Ronaldo Legacy Private edition, coffee not in the notes but can definitely get it, really quite nice for the money. Thanks so much for your continued efforts, love it.
From a fellow Aussie, Ronaldo private edition is really good & getting hard to find, have you also tried Michael Jordan Legend? A cheapie also getting hard to find, notv a beast performer but a really nice coffee fragrance, i believe itv was the first ever coffee frag
I have a special relationship with Fidelis. Certainly doesn't contain the greatest coffee accord, but it came to me at an interesting time in my life. Ditto with 1899, the Spicebomb alternative. 😄 As for Mugler, I never got any coffee from Pure Tonka, but when Akro's Awake came around, the layering of the two was just stellar. Finally got a decant of Coffee Addict from Theodoros Kalotinis too and now it's up there with Follow for me.
Never smelled any Akro frag yet... that house is on my hit list to sniff one day... btw i know what you mean about frags marking a certain point in your life... nothing does that like a fragrance 😊

I have the same tiny bottle of Fidelis,and I think it's really great coffee scent with a funk,we all appreciate:)....I have an opportunity to get a new trussardi inside for 80$,50ml.Btw,I wore trussardi pour homme in the beginning of the 90'!Capture that:)
Ohhhh the house of Sillage is usually a no no for me... they are on my banned list kind of like Boadicia the overpriced .... but if you give it a thumbs up & rec I will put it on the to sniff list... but unless someone sends me a bottle you will never see a house of Sillage bottle in my collection 😂😂😂 Thanks for watching & commenting🍻
"Here goes $50" LOL I actually wanted to ask you about how you're planning on using all this perfume you have or the idea is not to use it up. I have well over 100 full bottles and what I'm doing now is having 30 bottles out and using them generously, so that I finally can see the scent level going down. And of course, I'm dying to use up my samples, travel atomizers, etc.
@@RamseytheRam 😆I understand that using the last drop of your last bottle is not going to be your life mission. But I'll die trying to achieve exactly that 🤣
That's no ostrich box, m'lord! 🐏🦆

My favorite coffee perfume is Follow by Kerosene. It's pure black coffee without any sweetener.

Do you notice color changes to the Angel Men juice depending on the year?
Yes absolutely ... my really old A*Men bottle that actually says Angel Men is almost a green color now... where the new(er) juice is Blueish

Never smelled either of them! But I just put them on the to sniff list .. thanks for the rec 😊
Damn, the hate for Kurkdjian is real lmao
I don't hate mfk but I tired 724 in store yesterday and I was instantly anosmic to it. Literally smelled like water.
Ughhh ... he just makes very modern mass appealing frags 🤷♂️
Hard to pimp stuff like that for 500 to real frag heads... Creed has the same problem
@@RamseytheRam don’t even get me started on Creed, they’re the epitome of everything wrong in the fragrance industry
Your Cristobal has gone bad, it should have been light green.
It isnt bad
The smell isn't bad, but it did change. I've been using it since it came out, and the only downside is the color change if its not properly stored.
All fragrances change color and this one was stored properly
Where is Oud Luwak ? Loool
I dont own it Adam 🥺
However a friend sent me a few precious drops and so I was able to review it later 🥳🥳🥳🥳
