@@tomasratzer896 that’s subjective, they put out amazing fragrances that last for hours. Compared to other brands I’d say they are priced at competitive prices for their quality.
It's amazing to me how everyone is complaining about Kilian prices but I never hear anyone saying anything about Fragrance du Bois prices which are even higher. I own perfumes from both brands, but some of their offerings are super overpriced.
I'll take Kilian or Tom Ford over Creed though. Worst niche house price/performance wise. At least I get good performance from Intoxicated and Tuberose Nue....

What I enjoy is the technical breakdown and appreciation of the skill required. Too many channel just say about the notes and if they like it. You might not like a fragrance but score it high for the artistic nature and skill. I own this and it's not one for everyone but that's why I love it.
You’re the best reviewer in the game. You actually review it and break it down. I really like how even if a fragrance is not your style, you praise it if you think it’s quality. Example, your PDM Percival review.
I was waiting for this review. Toy boy is such a delightful scent, delicate and strong at the same time with those oriental nuances. Defenitely im so grateful i found your channel. I can't get enough of your videos and reviews! Such a lovely vibe and good energies. It looks like you feel perfumes with all your senses. Such a treat to be able to watch you Aaron, my respects and much love for you!
For the price it’s a wonderful scent! I genuinely use it as my signature! I actually bought it after your review so it’s good to see you rereview and like it! Also, that dry down is just so intoxicating!
The perfumer behind this is Yann Vasnier, a brilliant young perfumer. Glad you respect this piece and re-reviewed it. I personally love it so it's a 10/10 for me haha. All the best :)
Such a unique fragrance! Full disclosure, I was turned off by the bottle and quickly dismissed it. Months later I smelled it on someone and was completely captivated by what I was smelling. I’m glad you came around to this one again! Excellent review as always! Cheers!
I tried it on my skin last winter and some of it got on my jacket's sleeve, and for more than a week, i still could smell it in the room until i washed the damn thing, but it grew on me and now i own a bottle. it is one of the most unique, fresh, strong, projecting perfume i ever tried.
I have a designer-heavy fragrance collection, and this is my most complimented, especially from females. I also go through spurts of loving it so much that I won’t wear anything else for days on end.
Oh Aaron, you hit this one out of the park. Great review. Thank you for your deep knowledge of fragrance composition, it makes us appreciate the artistry in perfumery! Thank you.
This fragrance has really grown on me since ive pulled it back out this spring love the fresh rose with the green notes in opening and just gets even better as the day goes on another great review 🤘🏻
I wish i could hug you!!! I keep telling my friends that this is way better than Roses on Ice and it lasts and lasts and is very strong and waaay cheaper!!!! Thank you Aaron
Very original. This thing lives in fall weather but can get a bit heady in the summer on me. It's fresh and clean but aggressively so around 25 degrees Celsius. There's almost a vingar-y vibe BUT not in a bad way. Maybe I was a dummy for trying to wear it in hot weather. Love this stuff. The price is great.
Bought the 30ml a week ago from Notino and I love it; I just keep sniffing the atomiser 😆 Lasts a long time and it’s really smooth and enjoyable from the opening to the dry down and being a skin scent too ❤️ 🐻
I didn’t love the smell initially, as i felt it smelled very «flower/floral watery» for lack of a better word. It smelt very spicy for me in the beginning. But as soon as it dried down on my skin it all came together, the initial spicy smell became softer and it overall became more «neutralized». Smells like flowers in a more masculine way than the typical floral scent women would go for, but it works well and i really enjoy it once it’s dried down properly. For sure a unisex smell once it dries imo. Also, the scent lasts for a hot minute. The scent of flower is still on my skin, even after taking a shower. Incredible value for money based on first impressions.
I love rose smell. Never had a perfume with rose tho, because usually it’s a woman’s frag note. But I found Toy Boy for 40$ on a Black Friday sale, so I blind bought it. It will arrive this week, I’m super excited.
I'm not sure what it is about my skin chemistry, but this one projects that fresh twist of citrus/cucumber and the rose/lilac heavily. Yet on the skin, I get this heavy filth accord that jumps just a few inches off. It leads to some incredible nights with my girl, but I haven't heard anyone mention or even seen where that darker filth feel is coming from. Either way, it's safe to wear out and it pulls compliments from my kind of people. Those who are blessed to be different! Always love your reviews Aaron. Your channel is the only one of it's kind I still watch and your fragrances are beautiful
Really enjoyed the review, it is still under the radar even though what you get for the price is just fabulous. Got this as a gift for my 20th birthday after I smelled it in a small perfume shop nearby, super unique, very long lasting and the projection is solid as well, just like you said in your video ;) Much love from Germany
I couldnt wait for fall so I could wear this. One of my current favorite scents, but not for everyone. You have to be secure in who you are because it definitely could be worn by a woman. My wife wears it as well. She says the cedarwood smells like hamster shavings. This has great projection and massive longevity, and its different. Once again great review! I figured you might appreciate it with the rose and unique aspects.
I blind bought this as a 30ml based on this review. I wanted to gift it to my brother as a inside joke cuz of the bottle. BUT I love it so much I am gonna keep it for myselfe! This is lovely. It would be to feminin for my bro anyways. Its so rosy but dirty, real raw rose. Not the fake rose you get in sweet womans fragrances.
My wedding is in one month and i tested severa fragances with my fiancee and she really loved this one (tried sauvage, layton, bleu, dior homme intense, scandal, lê male parfum, etc) . So it will be my choice for that day. Ordered a 100ml bottle (was using a DECANT) for 32 euros...enough said.
good luck ! if youre in america i could make you a sample of one of my niche fragrances for your wedding :) i have a big collection of beautiful scents.
YEEEEEEESSS!!! Finally so happy to see this video, Toy Boy is really one of my main fragrances I wear it's so unique and playful i love it. Really awesome review as always!!
Completely agree. Bought on first sniff and continued to impress me after wears. The bottle looks odd on my shelf, stands out like a sore thumb, like I’m hiding a camera or smelting 😂
I received this as a gift and I have to be honest, if I tried this in store I would not have bought it myself. And I would have missed out on a great fragrance. The opening isn't my favourite, but the drydown is very classy and nice. Every collection needs one or 2 quirky different scents and this is definitely different! I am very glad I have it.
Had it for a few weeks and it's currently my go-to fragrance. I LOVE it. This scent performs so well on my skin, I get hours out of a couple of sprays. So different and smells very sophisticated to me. A signature scent for sure.
I was looking for another rose fragrance because it’s one of if not my favourite note but have struggled to find one, but now I’ve found one thanks to you! Thx this is gonna be my next fragrance for sure😋💕
"If you don't like rose.." No, generally i don't like it, but after watching your reviews I'd love even mud, if it was an aroma chemical explained by you :D Thanks and take care!
You’ve done it justice with the re-review! I love my Toy Boy so much. It performs and smells so good and no one could ever tell what it is when I wear it lol. ps/ they can be found for a steal with a little google 😉
I bought it today and i give it 5 stars its wonderfull perfume and Perfume has a strong concentration and a strong and beautiful smell I highly recommend it. Thank u so much for your review 👍🏻👍🏻
You have a very strong impact on the people to buy fragrances . Your opinion is like a stamp of approval because of the deep knowledge that you have unlike other reviewers
I was reluctant at first ordering this (not a fan of the bottle) but received it yesterday. And I'm nowhere near your brilliance explaining this but yeah, it's unique, it's special, it's phenomenal and the bottle design corresponds with the fragrance : a stubborn yet loud undertone of just... doing... its... own... "thang"... Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
The opening to this is beautiful. I tested it in the store. I didn't give the dry down much testing but would like to revisit it and maybe get a bottle.
Great news Aaron my friend.... I will be making a purchase sometime soon for the first time but I need some help as to where to look for it.... sorry I. Not that Internet savy and do have learning difficulties unfortunately 😕
This is a complete beast I smelled it on my wrist for over 24 hours after one spritz in the shop. I 😍 it. Great brand, great price - unique and I can’t fault it.
Never thought I'd be so into a rose fragrance, but this one is my favorite out of the fragrances I currently own. Only recently got back into the hobby after over a decade of just using whatever if it's cheap and smells decent, but I have a feeling this one will be hard to beat in its price range and scent category. Also doesn't hurt that the bottle is basically a collectible figurine.
I tried this one the other day and it's fantastic. I was thinking about how (in my opinion) it's a statement in redefining what 'masculinity' is. They've been very clever with their promotional materials incorporating the leather daddy aesthetic into the Moschino brand, I think they're basically saying "Who are you to say what is and isn't masculine" and the way the fragrance comes across is very confident and deliberate that you can't really argue with that sentiment. I think they've been very successful. Anyway, I enjoyed hearing your updated thoughts on this!
@@peterrak9554 I'm not so sure, I think currently as in right this moment it could be seen as feminine but I find the whole discussion about what is masculine and what's feminine is defined by perfumery created in the west in the 1970s or if that's not accurate then some other period in time. If you look at the use of rose in Middle Eastern perfumery then that connotation to it being feminine doesn't really stick. It is an interesting discussion, it's just a bit bizarre that certain flowers or other natural scents have connections to certain genders. That's why I think a more varied representation of different people and lifestyles is kind of important to challenge those ideas or learnt responses, it's just more interesting that way at least that's what I think.
I would love to hear your opinion on Rochas Moustache EDP which gets adored by so many reviewers. I'm really not sure if it really deserves so much love
Aaron, thanks for your love and hard work doing this reviews. I want to put my hands on Moschino Toy Boy but because of the covid I have to blind buy it, but I think I'm going to do it because I love rose. xoxo
As a toy boy you tend to notice that your elder love does tend to radiate an essence of an arrid type of the worst oud you've ever smelled, but it never stops you from loving them for who they are. We all become old someday if we make it that far, nice review aaron.xx
Wearing this one today and yeah it's phenomenal. I wore Narciso Rodriguez for him earlier ( a damp ozonic patchouli ) and this toy boy did well on top of it!!!
Thanks for the rereview, I appreciate you following up with an updated view. I've tested this and have been on the fence. You can find it at discounters for about $40 U.S. (30 pounds). I've got several other Rose fragrances including Onyx, just not sure it would get any use. I would love for you to review some of the Montale line, they have so many Rose fragrances.
Hi Aaron, Your review is very good. I note high the content of Undecavertol and Cashmeran but the green seems to be given by Tagete oil and Cantoxal (Basil and violet) and perhaps a trace of Aldehyde Myrac to strengthen the cucumber. Amber is given by Ambroxan and rose by Givescone. It is my opinion. Regards.
Yes! I’ve been waiting for this review. Thank you! The bottle is destroying the fragrance though. It smells more sophisticated and interesting than the presentation.
I have a tough time with this one, opening and mid are just not pleasant to me. I will say it is somewhat unique. Love your expertise and passion, I am buying and adding one more ATH from max aroma next month. You Are awesome! Can you please review a Boadicea like the amazing Blue Sapphire or Kings Road? Thanks
This was a fantastic review. I totally understand your thoughts. You mention how well crafted this cologne is & you love it yet you don’t like it. It definitely has its own unique scent but it does EVERYTHING you want in a cologne. But it boils down to taste. But Hence to why you mentioned you strive for this type of stuff in your work
Hi Aaron, sorry a little late with the comments. Great review as always. I like it when you discover a fragrance that pushes the boundaries and sparks your interest. Your review style is fascinating - you objectively critique a fragrance, articulating how well put together it is, despite you not actually particularly liking it. I do love Toy Boy. The rose is strong, unique and definitely a talking point. Whenever I wear this I get wafts off of it, hours into the day. It projects for a long time, settles after an initial aromachemical “scratchy” hit into a real classic, quality masculine fragrance that makes a bold statement. A statement that says a great deal about the strong, characterful person who chooses to wear this, daring to wear something a little different. Thanks as always for your fascinating, informative reviews. I look forward to watching them. Best wishes. Rob.
Very detailed 🤴🏻 and honest review and one of the best releases in 2020 ,it last 8 hours on my skin. Very cheap for the quality that I review on my channel collection. Thanks Professor A T.H
Didn't get to test ToyBoy, but I've been wearing Cartier's Declaration d'un Soir for a while which also has that rose and nutmeg smell. I'd like to see what you think about it Aaron!
I'm always on the fence about buying this one. So many people say it's great buy many hate it. I'm not a huge rose fan which is why I never risked getting it. However, reviews like this make me rethink if I should get it or not again.
Great review! Biggest female compliment puller in my quiver. I'm talking even passing strangers on the street. They love the dirty rose note, if I had to guess. Superb resonance and durability too.
Lol I literally bought a 30ml of this on Friday from Ross Blind buy never seen a review and ABSOLUTELY ! FukN love it!!!! I went back in looking to see if they had more hiding lol. Thanks for the review Aaron always love your reviews and keep up the great work
LOVE this fragrance. I won a 100ml bottle from fragrance fanatic TH-cam reviewer. It wasn't on my radar but when got it and smelled it , I fell in love.
Great re-review. I remember in your 1st review you said this was a safe scent, and I was quite surprised by that. However, I love this fragrance, I miss it a lot now that I left it at home and can’t go to it until the holiday season
I love Toy Boy. Price wise is juts unbeatable. Top 3 fav fragrances of all time. Like it way more than othe fragrances I have that are 3 or 4 times por expensive. It's just perfect for me. 9/10
You know it's an Aaron review when he shades Kilian price tags even when it's a review that is not Kilian related. Love it.
He is right though, they are very overpriced

As a toy boy you tend to notice that your elder love does tend to radiate an essence of an arrid type of the worst oud you've ever smelled, but it never stops you from loving them for who they are. We all become old someday if we make it that far, nice review aaron.xx
Great review! This has been my signature scent for the past few months.
I absolutely love your reviews! Any chance you would review musk therapy by initio?
Can you please review Burberry Hero 🙏🙏🙏
your review just popped after ordering it, gets me more excited now.
Thanks
Wearing this one today and yeah it's phenomenal. I wore Narciso Rodriguez for him earlier ( a damp ozonic patchouli ) and this toy boy did well on top of it!!!
I bloody love your videos Aaron.
You can actually find it quite cheap in discounters, circa 35 euros 100ml. It's indeed great and loud.
Thanks for the rereview, I appreciate you following up with an updated view. I've tested this and have been on the fence. You can find it at discounters for about $40 U.S. (30 pounds). I've got several other Rose fragrances including Onyx, just not sure it would get any use. I would love for you to review some of the Montale line, they have so many Rose fragrances.
Hi Aaron,
Your review is very good.
I note high the content of Undecavertol and Cashmeran but the green seems to be given by Tagete oil and Cantoxal (Basil and violet) and perhaps a trace of Aldehyde Myrac to strengthen the cucumber. Amber is given by Ambroxan and rose by Givescone. It is my opinion. Regards.
Thank you. I try my best to communicate really complex chemistry and maths in an easy way for all people.
@@AaronTerenceHughes Your work is excellent!!! Regards.
Yes! I’ve been waiting for this review. Thank you!
The bottle is destroying the fragrance though. It smells more sophisticated and interesting than the presentation.
I have a tough time with this one, opening and mid are just not pleasant to me. I will say it is somewhat unique. Love your expertise and passion, I am buying and adding one more ATH from max aroma next month. You Are awesome! Can you please review a Boadicea like the amazing Blue Sapphire or Kings Road? Thanks
This was a fantastic review. I totally understand your thoughts. You mention how well crafted this cologne is & you love it yet you don’t like it. It definitely has its own unique scent but it does EVERYTHING you want in a cologne. But it boils down to taste. But Hence to why you mentioned you strive for this type of stuff in your work
Hi Aaron, sorry a little late with the comments. Great review as always. I like it when you discover a fragrance that pushes the boundaries and sparks your interest. Your review style is fascinating - you objectively critique a fragrance, articulating how well put together it is, despite you not actually particularly liking it. I do love Toy Boy. The rose is strong, unique and definitely a talking point. Whenever I wear this I get wafts off of it, hours into the day. It projects for a long time, settles after an initial aromachemical “scratchy” hit into a real classic, quality masculine fragrance that makes a bold statement. A statement that says a great deal about the strong, characterful person who chooses to wear this, daring to wear something a little different. Thanks as always for your fascinating, informative reviews. I look forward to watching them. Best wishes. Rob.
this is a very intelligent man and some deep knowledge and experience is highly evident his reviews..
Merci Aaron t'es le meilleur !!
IM SOOOOOOOOOOO READY FOR THIS RE-REVIEW
Very detailed 🤴🏻
and honest review and one of the best releases in 2020 ,it last 8 hours on my skin.
Very cheap for the quality that I review on my channel collection.
Thanks Professor A T.H
Didn't get to test ToyBoy, but I've been wearing Cartier's Declaration d'un Soir for a while which also has that rose and nutmeg smell. I'd like to see what you think about it Aaron!
I'm always on the fence about buying this one. So many people say it's great buy many hate it. I'm not a huge rose fan which is why I never risked getting it. However, reviews like this make me rethink if I should get it or not again.
Great review! Biggest female compliment puller in my quiver. I'm talking even passing strangers on the street. They love the dirty rose note, if I had to guess. Superb resonance and durability too.
My bottle arrived today, it's very nice. I get a sweet-spicy rose, with a musky undertone.
Lol I literally bought a 30ml of this on Friday from Ross Blind buy never seen a review and ABSOLUTELY ! FukN love it!!!! I went back in looking to see if they had more hiding lol. Thanks for the review Aaron always love your reviews and keep up the great work
Can you do a review on Chanel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extrême, i must know if it is good and long lasting!
Went to test toy boy because of this video and absolutely loved it. Bought it obviously.
Discounters often have this on sale for £40 for 100ml. It really is an excellent fragrance, but super strong!
Another J W? Nice to meet you! 👍
@@jingledubz3989 👍🏻😀
Obsessed with this cologne so unique and elegant smelling
LOVE this fragrance. I won a 100ml bottle from fragrance fanatic TH-cam reviewer. It wasn't on my radar but when got it and smelled it , I fell in love.
Finally got one its not what i really expected it is even better the longevity and projection is like i have never encountered before
This is one of my favorite fragrance when I want to stand out at a party or family gathering.
Brilliant review as usual Aaron. I'd love to see your thoughts on Hermes H24 if possible.
Great re-review. I remember in your 1st review you said this was a safe scent, and I was quite surprised by that. However, I love this fragrance, I miss it a lot now that I left it at home and can’t go to it until the holiday season
I love Toy Boy. Price wise is juts unbeatable. Top 3 fav fragrances of all time. Like it way more than othe fragrances I have that are 3 or 4 times por expensive. It's just perfect for me. 9/10
I like it on paper. But on skin I feel it’s bad? Is that your experience?
@@Jhart44 I love it everywhere :)
