After a couple of years in this hobby you realize that the snobbish attitude that a lot of people have regarding some fragrance is lame and uncalled for. The moment I smelled Myslf at Macy's I knew it was something special, and at the same time the fragrance "connoisseurs" were blasting this. And don't get me wrong, it's ok not to like it, but the level of hate was too much, it just shows how petty a lot of people are.
Ever since the crazy success of BDC and Sauvage, every company has made ambroxan the main staple of their releases and it just becomes extremely redundant. Once you have a healthy amount of bottles you start to be really picky! Most people trashing it don’t dislike it because they think it’s bad, but more because they don’t need another ambroxan based frag.
It’s exciting to see myself become the new sauvage/bleu de Chanel. This will promote the other two big brands to partake and maybe come up with something new
That is 1 reason I used to love working at a nice store with a perfume section, I got to smell all the expensive & new fragrances & I got to spray myself with something different everyday or the same if I fell in love with something ❤
Man I just wanna say that the newer editing is just top notch imo. It definitely adds to the video quality and production value. Great job as usual ash
First time I smelled MYSELF, instant hit. A buddy bought a bottle after he smelled me. I got compliments after compliments. These frag snobs actually are out of touch.
YSL myslf le parfum, Eros energy, and a men fantasm are my most hyped fragrances to get my nose on at the moment.Hopefully YSL myslf le parfum gets easier to find soon!
Eros energy I’m hyped for but there’s no sign of release in the US anytime soon, and we’re halfway through the summer. They’re messing up not releasing it yet.
I liked the opening and the mid and great dry down of the edp, but it seemed to me to have a bit of a strange transition between the phases . I think the Le Parfum smoothed it out.
I just bought this smell and WOW!! so many videos i watched and this kept coming up .. this is my new silent but DEADLY.. the lady’s love it .. its more a smell just for you out in public but when u home or even really close to a girl it’s a deff killer Bait..i smile like BRUCE THE SHARK when im wearing this
At least it’s not water based…just sayin. YSL may not push the boundaries with their scents, but they are the most consistently mass appealing IMO. I love their mens lines for that reason, easy to wear and high quality.
I loved the Myslf EDP but it smelled too juvenile for me. This Le Parfum is the successful older brother with more confidence and I feel like the man when I wear this.
Is it really a Parfum concentration… or is it like Y Le Parfum, which is just an EDP Intense? YSL uses Le Parfum kind of loosely, and not always indicative of the concentration.
I was having the same thought, le parfum could be just marketing. and as you said it could just be EDP. and EDP intense is not a concentration, it's just a marketing and excuse for them to charge more. Ash should really check the concentration sticker on the bottom of the bottle and show the viewers what the concentration really is
The original Myslf is a rather simple, straight-forward fragrance, but people out there love it, probably because it is not challenging at all, and you´ll get compliments. I don´t understand the hate. I haven´t smelled the new one yet, but will check it out as soon as it is available in my country.
As an owner of 7 YSL fragrances the one thing that I notice is the Parfum versions of YSL fragrances tend to not be attention getting fragrances like the EDP’s tend to be. YSL Y EDP is one of my most complimented fragrances and the Parfum version in my opinion is a better fragrance but has gotten me far less compliments. I had a sample bottle of Myself and the attention was there but I haven’t picked up a full bottle yet because I have 300 plus bottles in my collection already. I’m interested to see what the reaction Will be to this flanker because YSL Perfums don’t typically perform all that well.
I'm no fragrance snob, but considering the price on the Myself edp, I felt it was just meh. The Le parfum is much nicer, but then price is even higher. Still undecided yet if Le parfum is worth the price.
Thanks for reviewing Ash. I can't wait for it to get to the secondary market... I'll take it - 100%.Yves Saint Laurent makes simple and chic things🖤✨🕶️. They are either divinely beautiful or devilishly seductive. Or maybe all at once. 🔥😱💯
Just tried it at Macys in DC. It's okay. I love the OG and prefer this dna as a bright fresh fragrance. Not an evening scent. I have better options for that
Currently testing them side by side . I like the same woody white floral and the vanilla and amber smooth out the roughness of the patchouli , it doesn't seem to project as much.
It smells like a starchy pressed shirt with subtle sweetness and powderyness.. it’s similar to Frederick Malle Acne Studios but in a more mass appealing less dense version
Fragrance snob here….i love the edt! Bought a 10 ml to try it out and blew through it in a month. Super versatile, smells of quality and has a surprisingly addictive dry down.
Sounds very appealing, I have the original myself and I do love it but I'm hesitant to buy this one only because at this point I have so many fragrances in my collection that I'm going to feel guilty in purchasing this one but I'm probably going to end up buying it anyway because it does sound very interesting I'm just going to be worried that it's going to smell like something that I already own and my scent of the day is Mancera aqua wood
Great review! Thank you. However, IMHO EDP smells and wears better that Le Parfum. The reason is le Parfum is way too heavier on white florals which last well into the first hour of wearing. EDP is fresher more wearable and not as sweet than Le Parfum. But for me any even minute presence of white florals absolutely kills it.
The average person at the mall knows nothing about fragrances😂. So yes it will sell big time. But doesnt mean the fragrance is worth the $$ for what it is. As you get experienced and get your nose on different fragrances that are actually unique. These all become boring.
Wow these design houses are definitely over pricing these fragrances when you can get some niche fragrances that are better value for money.. Maybe wait a month and then buy the just released elixir 😉😆
He's using hyperbole, but he's correct that the markup is insane... Watches, fragrances, mattress all insane markup. To get it on the shelf in a store is probably $20-$30, including warehouse, transport, everything including the ingredients.
I actually didnt find Le Parfum sweet at all. Anyone else? Even the notes dont really indicate a sweet scent. This scent is addicting, and for sure gets compliments.
I drove a hour and a half to pick my bottle up at my closest Nordstroms, LUCKYELY I got mine cause they wouldn't put it on hold for me even tho I told them I was coming from 2 states away. BUT I GOT IT THANKFULLY 👍🏻
@rookie_breaks it is awesome, i collect fragrances, so it's totally worth it to me to drive, Definitely darker than the edp. Edp is fresher more chances to wear the edp, the le parfum is more a fall and winter scent, and a cool spring night. I dig it for sure, but don't listen to the haters until you get your nose on the juice.
@@michaelrice6525 yeah I kinda dismissed the edp for a while because of that but I’m gunna sample both at some point now to see what the hype is about. Thanks for the insight.
Brother leave a review on Orientica Sweet Amber 30 ML, You will be surprised and puzzled as to how many hidden gemes exist. and also please tell me which designer perfume or niche perfume is similar to this ?
I think the original myself smells like a straight-up laundry detergent to my nose It is quite boring baring in mind I've smelt 1000s of fragrances so to an untrained nose, this probably smells like the best thing to have ever been created and I can see the appeal for this fragrance. the amount of hate it has gotten though is silly and uncalled for yes its one of those crowd-pleaser boring scents that's impossible to offend anyone wearing but these types of scents sell incredibly well and tbh even in my snobbish opinion the scent is quite pleasant just not something id personally wear and that's okay fragrance is subjective
its insane pricing. and Ysl fragrances are supposed to be cheap. le parfum for around 180 dollars, that is madness in a bottle. And ash says le parfum is to be expected to be more expensive. Grats ash, you have just been brainwashed into accepting prices like that. At this point, I'm going to switch to niche when I'm paying for upwards of 200+ dollars or more. most designer fragrances is meant to be cheap, below 100$. now designers want above 100$ for a 60ml that is not elixir. And even elixir fragrances are way to expensive.
@@andersgjerlw9636what u mean designer need to be cheap. They range from 90 to 200 max. No furthur than that. They dont say they will make it cheap. Otherwise, you can get it from discounter.
There’s some great clones houses there. Just got 3 100ml bottles with 4th of July sale for like 42 bucks after shipping and they smell designer. (Divain)
I have the YSL Y EDP and I’ve smelled MYSLF before and I thought they were both pretty similar and my question is, should I get MYSLF if I have Y EDP already?
Too too expensive for what it is. Designer fragrances are way too expensive now. For this kind of price I prefer to buy a Lorenzo pazzaglia or nishane fragrance for example

Didn't try the Le Parfum yet, but YSL myslf is inoffensive and such a pleasant scent that I really love it. The price is way too high IMO though.
Myself elixir next month
You might get an intense before the elixir 😂
And next year URSLF.
When they release Elixir, I'm buying it 💯

@spidermander4008 exactly. By the time they release it, summer will be over
some people say there will be a new pdm imperius.. idk some say its fake
great video thanks. I'll wear YSL MYSLF EDP today (just woke up). This le parfum sounds nice. I'll have to check it out soon.
I liked the opening and the mid and great dry down of the edp, but it seemed to me to have a bit of a strange transition between the phases . I think the Le Parfum smoothed it out.
I've already have y edt & edp. I'll stick with the myself edp for the fresh (not as sweet) aspect. Thx for making my mind up!
Myself EDT? They only have EDP and LE PARFUM. That I can see, unless I’m wrong?

At least it’s not water based…just sayin. YSL may not push the boundaries with their scents, but they are the most consistently mass appealing IMO. I love their mens lines for that reason, easy to wear and high quality.
Great review man.
Still love Y EDP over this
EDP intense is better
@@alejandronuno9829
Y Le Parfum better yet.
Nah fr

It’s still an EDP with the fancy marketing name

I got my PR package in the mail rn from YSL. I'm excited to give this one a try! The original Myslf I'm not super into. This one sounds more my style
The OG MYSLF is such a compliment puller, I'm guessing this just builds off that
7:40 to skip to how it smells

It's okay. I love the OG and prefer this dna as a bright fresh fragrance.
Not an evening scent.
I have better options for that
I went to the one in Pentagon City, and I didn't see it. They was pushing Y Elixir hard.
Almost 8 min into the video without telling us actually about the new fragrance… come on man
💯💯💯
You realize that you can skip through the parts you don’t want to watch?
Facts dude talks to much about nothing.
I noticed that recently he has started blabbing too much and not getting to the point. That’s why I unsubscribed
7:30 smell test starts
already sold out :/
Even in France smh this stuff flies of shelves at an insane speed
Tried at Macy's sprayed 3 sprays on my arm it becomes a skin scent within a half hour , I got wafts of it throughout the day , the edp is better imo
Currently testing them side by side . I like the same woody white floral and the vanilla and amber smooth out the roughness of the patchouli , it doesn't seem to project as much.
I called Dillard's in my town. They have MYSLF Le Parfum. I may check it out just to smell it.
myslf is 1 of my faves,had 2 bottles and emptied them so fast.... 😊
Should've bought the refill bottle. I got 5oz for the same price as a 3oz. Just refill your original
@mckain1026 I'm planning to BUT I smashed the lid on my 1st so needed the complete bottle again anyway :)
It smells like a starchy pressed shirt with subtle sweetness and powderyness.. it’s similar to Frederick Malle Acne Studios but in a more mass appealing less dense version
Definitely get the bourbon vanilla similar to Stronger With You and one or more of the Azzarro's
Fragrance snob here….i love the edt! Bought a 10 ml to try it out and blew through it in a month. Super versatile, smells of quality and has a surprisingly addictive dry down.
Myslf doesn’t come in edt
Just bought the 60ml Le Parfum for 105$, just hit the first Danish store, and they have 25% of this weekend, had to do it
Sounds very appealing, I have the original myself and I do love it but I'm hesitant to buy this one only because at this point I have so many fragrances in my collection that I'm going to feel guilty in purchasing this one but I'm probably going to end up buying it anyway because it does sound very interesting I'm just going to be worried that it's going to smell like something that I already own and my scent of the day is Mancera aqua wood

I wait til a video of the best clone of MYSLF Le Parfum comes out
Exactly what I said when I got to smell it like 2 weeks ago amber vanilla and less fresher .
The first time I smelled Myself I liked it. 2nd time I smelled it , it seemed similar to Cool water.
Hopefully by the fall it will be more affordable.
What’s up Ash! Could you do a video on your top 15 blind buys? Love your content

Dear Ashton, kindly review Clive Christian Perfume Collection please
Redundant if you have original. At least for $180
Would this be worth it? Im thinking about getting Myself or Carolina Herrera Cobalt Elixir???
Love it or hate it. It will sell big time. I like it so far. Not as bright as the original but sticks around on my skin much longer than the OG.

Oh that's nice. Let's find out where the market tipping point is together.
does anyone know when this will be released in the uk? massive fan pf MYSLF and cannot wait to get my hands on this🙌
It costs about $5 to mass produce. The prices they sell for are crazy
He's using hyperbole, but he's correct that the markup is insane... Watches, fragrances, mattress all insane markup. To get it on the shelf in a store is probably $20-$30, including warehouse, transport, everything including the ingredients.
Is this more sweet than Y Le Parfum or Y EDP?
I layer this with Versace eros edp, very nice!!!
I have never clicked this fast on a video when i first saw it.
I actually didnt find Le Parfum sweet at all. Anyone else? Even the notes dont really indicate a sweet scent. This scent is addicting, and for sure gets compliments.
If L'homme and LA Nuit de L'homme are any indication, YSL love their flankers...
I can't wait to get my nose on this

Great review
I just think ashes wife loves it. Hence the hype :)

I feel for the US customers on these I really do. They’re nowhere near this price in the uk really.
What's better, YSL Y Le Parfum, YSL MYSLF EDP or YSL MYSLF Le Parfum?
YSL MYSLF Le Parfum is
Ill be waiting for tht elixir
4 months later got 3.3oz of Le Parfum from Jomashop for only $133
What’s the projection and longevity like?
It doesn’t deserve the price, go buy a mancera instead of this
💯
Too too expensive for what it is. Designer fragrances are way too expensive now. For this kind of price I prefer to buy a Lorenzo pazzaglia or nishane fragrance for example
How is performance?
How can ysl justify that price on a designer level frag 😂 hopefully it bombs
is it refillable like the old one?
Does it compare to Gucci guilty elixir ? Just based off the notes
Bc I really love the latter
Smells nothing like Guilty Elixer. It’s more of the vibe of the Y line.
Is that correct that smells similar to Valentino born in Roma intense??
They just keep adding vanilla in every new release now days, just ruins it
So true
Yeah the dry down on a lot of these new designers just boils down to basic vanilla
Everything is starting to smell the same.
@@flightgravity7483Yeah all the ones from early 2000s and before were the best, not as sweet and weren't all mass appealing
