  • This is my early impression on one of the greatest perfumes of all time Apres L'Ondee from 1906 by the great Jacques Guerlain. I know I am not worthy to discuss this hallowed juice, but I give it my best shot.

And thanks to people like Rachel for helping make this happen. so cool to have content like this amongst all these stupid top 10 sexy "compliment getter" videos that other channels are doing. Great stuff Rams

      @@RamseytheRam if someone gatherd all the info from Rachel's comments and over the months they could write a history of perfume from that..l😊. I have learned so much from this channel. And to think I was buying crap like Carolina Herrera bad boy before I found this channel..now I'm learning about Guerlains from 1906. Thanks Rams ,and also to Rachel for all the constant info. Great video. ..now I'm off to watch my niners play.ncant believe we got christian McCaffrey now.

    Emel mentioned this way back in the early days of this channel and gave a beautiful account of Apres l'Ondee - After the rain. Hauntingly beautiful and dandy! 👍
    Btw, today I wore Ganymede ( you know the one that came out in 2019, but for some reason is getting everyone hyping and unhyping recently), well today I got the association it reminds me of. A newly oiled leather shaving strop! Of course (don't laugh)...not just any old leather strop....a vintage leather strop that you use after sharpening the blade on a single edge razor. It hit me today after what must be 20+ wears. I love it, no harshness at all, think of it as an oiled leather in the heat. The oil hasn't quite soaked in. Gorgeous!

    I love Apres L’Onde and have the EDT in a bee bottle. I don’t believe it is true vintage but it is not a most recent version either. It is heartbreakingly beautiful.

    I bought a bottle of the extrait from the 50s, recently bought a 1997 edt and it is to my surprise an absolute delight and very faithful to the extract. This pefume changes my mood radically to a reflective and perhaps sad state. Luca Turin said it smelled like a first-class funeral with 4 horses and gray ostrich feathers

    • @RamseytheRam
      @RamseytheRam  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I dont remember Turin saying that! Whats funny is it is supposed to be a bright after the rain fragrance where the sun is shinning again and everything is positive, L'Heure Bleue is supposed to be the sad melencholic perfume but I can totally see how this one goes in that direction... I decided on a vintage pre-estee Lauder bottle of L'Eau d'Hiver instead.. Jean Claude Ellenas Apres Londee inspired creation for Malle 🙂

    Nice one Rams, firstly what can I say about the Jonathan 1970 stream, except we need more lol,plus goddam he is starting a channel boom,sorely needed for us lot,fantastic 👏🏻. And I probably wouldn’t gravitate towards this particular Guerlain me thinks? Then I rushed in where angels fear to thread and blind bought a vintage edc partial called Je Reviens Worth ,dumb ass , I thought is smacked of an old masculine cologne but on investigation ,nope a heavy aldehydic floral ,however a oak moss and masculine base may just get a pass from me lol,we shall see. Cheers fella take it handy 🙏✌️👍

      Je Reviens is a classic, and in some ways similar to this one.
      Apres l'Ondee as it's quite melancholic too. If you're EDC is intact you'll get to enjoy the many stages. The scent tree goes on an on. I have the Parfum with a blue glass stopper, it's a beautiful scent leaving gorgeous trails which relate to it's name meaning "I will be back."
      Oh and Liz Moore's has a scent association with it as well.

      Je Reviews Worth was a great scent, although feminine leaning back in the day. Now there is no gender in perfume and hopefully you will enjoy that perfume.

    Interesting you mentioning there is no 'Sunshine' scent when there is in a way with the use of heliotrope.
    The Greek for Sun is Helios and trepein is to turn in Greek. This is where Heliotropes get their name as they are a flower (Heliotropion) that turn to the Sun. Dah dah!! Kind of clever of them to use it here.
    It's not your style yet.....I bet it comes calling later.

    There's no 'n' in bergamot, and the 's' in Jaques is silent - PLEASE do yourself and everyone else a favour, and take a basic French course if you are interested in perfumes, or sharing your knowledge.

      @RamseytheRam If you're comfortable adding letters to words and mangling people's names because you can't be bothered to spend a few hours learning the basics of French - a language so intimately connected to your passion, it has nothing to do with Texas or God.
