Just tried the Bleu Noir EDT today for the first time. Instantly fell in love with it. It had lots of similarities with Terre D'Hermes in the first hours, then settled a little more creamy and nice to the skin. I already loved Terre D'Hermes, but this is so so nice. Great find to be honest, and seems very appropriate as a signature scent too!
I literally could hear you talk fragrances for hours. My favorite (slept on) Designer is Polo Red Extreme. Bloodorange and Coffee yummy. A nice winter scent with decent performance.
You are one of the the best spoken reviewers out there. Some of the fragrances you talk about have never been mentioned by other reviewers, which is fresh. Youre gonna reach the top very soon. Trick is coming up with innovative content.
I just get excited and wait in anticipation for the next french word you pronounce. 😂 You switch back and forth so effortlessly and I like how you explain certain fragrances that have "old school traditional style" and so forth. It really helps me understand how certain houses have very particular styles and you make it easy to digest in your videos! One of my very favorite fragrance channels! And you look lovely in that dress. Very well put together and informational. That's enough compliments for now. 👌
hi, just want to thank you for making me love scents again, love your taste for scents and your way of describing them and getting them alive with your descriptions.
You look so beautiful in that blouse and those earrings!!🤍✨🌺 Thank you so much for this wonderful list! Being in surch for a parfume present for my father in law, and I think Bottega Veneta Illusions, is the right one.
Very true. There are two major designer brands in your list -Chanel and Guerlain, that can hardly go unnoticed. Both Allure and L'Instant, are such amazing juices -still in my rotation, that behave differently in warmer or cooler weather because they are not linear at all. A bit of floral/woodsy aspects make Allure unique enough to lend a thing or two to the other Chanels -Bleu and Allure sport eau extréme. I was lucky enough to snatch a bottle of vintage L'Instant, months ago. LIDG is borderline gourmand but along the lines of the original Dior homme without iris. Thumbs way up, Josephine... in sync with your picks here! And kudos on the Narciso Rodriguez and Prada.
Thanks for your thoughtful comment. You got an original bottle?! Oh my, you’re lucky! As always thanks for watching and your support 😊 Have a wonderful day!
@@jusderose ... I wish to believe I was in luck striking that deal, since edt LIDG is an all-time favorite, but believe me, the juice inside your current bottle isn't reformulated. I also purchased (along with L'Homme Ideal cologne) a recent Guerlain Vetiver -same story, yet in a less fancier packaging. So no need for hunting high and low these vintages, in my opinion. My constant support ♡... con mucho cariño!
Great! Most of the perfume you mentioned are not reviewed by the frag community. Nice to see someone talk about it. Please keep it the same way. Love You!
To be honest, right after I've watched your video about layering I rushed to my local Sephora to smell Guerlain L’Instant (and some others ). I was pleasantly surprised by this perfume. The scent is so unique but in a good way. And, can we talk about the dry down? It's so cozy, elegant, and delicious but as you said it is not overly sweet. The only perfumes, with cacao and chocolate note, that I knew was Mugler Angel Muse and Hugo Boss Private Accord for Her, but they are a big fat no for me. So, I would expect that I'll like perfume with a cacao note. I think I know what I want for Christmas ;) Great content! Really love your video
Thanks to you, I purchased Prada Luna Black and Chanel Allure Homme! Two outstanding smelling fragrances. Please more videos like that for good smelling fragrances on a budget.
Nicely done! Blue Noir is a FANTASTIC fragrance...unique, versatile, easy to wear. Totally agree with your assessment of Chanel - Allure Homme...so underappreciated. Toy Boy is great as well as Prada Black...Mugler Cologne is a classic. Great list!
My husband just picked up NR Bleu Noir on his own. I'm so proud. He also fell in love with TF Tuscan Leather but hesitated due to price. Now I know what to gift him for Xmas. :)
Josephine, never understood why folk dont give Allure a lot of love? It is just quality pure and simple and it's been in my fave list for years up there with Dior Homme. Stay safe X
Hell girl ... you're going to finish with my budget 😬😂. The only that I have from your list is Mugler Cologne. All in the list looks interesting 🤔 I'll see if I can get Allure Homme and Toy Boy, (I see you did put especial emphasis on them), You look cute holding the toy boy bottle, makes me smile 😌 the rest of the video 😉💛. Nice review princess ✌
Chanel Allure homme is one of the best and most alluring scents of all time. I'ts only and huge problem is it's super low performance. This is an expensive skin scent. I bought a big bottle few months ago (2018 batch) and performance is terrible. I still like it tho.
Hello Jus! I love your selection! Great choiches! Love that Prada, that Guerlain, outstanding perfromance, superb quality of the juice, and also Dunhill Century and Chanel Allure Homme OG.
Thank you Josephine for introducing me to Chanel Allure Homme. Just bought it and fell in love with it. It is my favorite Chanel that I have. Always enjoy your content. Keep it up. Also, you are gorgeous.
Nice video! L'instant get a lot of love in the community but only the old formulations. It is said the new one is not good. The edp was already in my buy list for next month so we will see.
@@midnightmover2329 The Extreme doesn't exist anymore. It is replaced by the EDP, and there is also an EDT. Both have the same standard bottle shared with all the classic Guerlain like Heritage, Habit Rouge...
I totally agree about Allure Homme. I smelled it for very first time on my father when I was teenager in 2004 and I didn't like it, but now I am more mature and I love it
First, your channel is awesome, we all can learn how to properly pronounce the French manufactures names you do it so natural. Guess has a few underrated gems, Seductive Nior, Man Gold and 1981 LA, If you want attention and love a beast ‘Rasasi Sharah. Here are a few other under the radar fragrances: Ferrari Vetiver Essence, JPG In the Navy. Hollister Wave 2, Calvin Kline Eternity Flame, and Intense Euphoria, and a Bentley I just love is Absolute very good and doesn’t get the hype that Intense gets and is just as good.
I like all the fragrances in the Chanel Allure Homme line, but the original Allure Homme EDT is my favorit. I agree, this masterpiece doesn't get enough recognition.
I am Interested in Bleu Nior because I do like classy fragrances because I feel like it fits my personality a little more. I also have a signature scent for now but once I use up my other Chanel fragrance, I'll give Allure Homme EDT a try, it sounds really good.
Great picks Josefine, although I’d say some of these are fragcom staples. Maybe underrated in general though. Blue Noir is one of my favorites. I always get asked what I’m wearing when I wear it. By the way, my l’homme ideal cool came in and it’s amazing. Thanks for the rec.
I'm a new subscriber, and I'd like to say that you have a very elegant and classy touch to your videos, and it's great to see this . Kudos to you :) . Thanks for recommending Allure Homme, the original. I've been thinking for awhile to get a fragrance that is warm yet classy, a little buttery, etc. I almost had forgotten about this one. . Now you've reminded me, I love Chanel, have a few of their fragrances.
Underrated list: By Kilian - Bamboo Harmony Histoires de Parfum - 1725 Casanova Chris Collins - Danse Sauvage Imaginary Authors - Memoires of a Trespasser Maison Margiela Replica - Sailing Day
I really like blue noir. Bought the edp in error, not as nice as the EDT. Allure homme has been watered down. Have you ever smelled the earlier version? Very potent sillage. Powerful vanilla tonka with lemons at the top.
I have both the original Chanel Allure Homme EDT and L'Instant de Guerlain Pour Homme. I love them, and I agree with you that they are classy/traditional in the best possible way. I hope the folks at Chanel and Guerlain will never reformulate them.
Hi Josephine Boss Bottled Intense is a spicy sweet fragrances and it is very affordable, in my opinion a verry nice scent. I given away or sold most of my design fragrances (I'm now more into niche fragrances), I only kept the best and Boss Boss Bottled Intense is a keeper. Greetings from germany
having l´instant eau extreme 2014 for years, but a few days ago i ordered l´instant edt ... i love that citrusy anise notes (more for the summer) ... .but the longevity disappointed me .... it´s that new listerine bottle design ... pity for such a nice smell
Hi Josephine! Awesome picks and I need to check some of these as I haven’t gotten my nose on them just yet. Some hidden gems I’m pretty sure of that. Great video as always and keep up the great work 😀
Without question one of your finest video takes, period. Bravo on Narciso Rodriguez Bleu Noir as so little has been said about this little gold masculine nugget. Musky yet fresh and will work anywhere, anytime. Chanel Allure Homme edt has been totally forgotten but, for being over 20 years old, this is the timeless King by which all other modern classic all season fragrances are measured by. Very few match it in overall quality and what it exudes, sophisticated masculinity. I think three that should be worth considering are Guerlain Homme L’Eau Boisee, Azzaro Chrome Pure and a true sleeper as well I think is Prada Amber Pour Homme Extreme. Just a delicious all season gem. The Boisee is just a classic masterpiece and the Chrome Pure a super versatile freshie that is superb and hardly ever spoken of. Again, Bravo Milady, Bravo....
Nice diverse list ! Great description of Toy Boy . . . and as you said unique ! Another hidden gem is Adnan B - Ambre Noir . This one is better for cooler/colder temps. Def a love at first sniff for me ! ( I even have a back up bottle ! ) Many thanks for sharing . . . :)
Well I’m so impressed you can even follow men’s fragrances. Just when I start to think that now, after 4 months of obsessively collecting, I am starting to know about some female fragrances, I think- wow I know nothing about men’s frags if they are not unisex. As far as underrated though, in my collection, I have Oud Meleki by Chopard which is really nice. It’s a BIT masculine for me but I am just going to wear it anyway in Fall. But guess what arrived from Italy today??!! It’s Ambre from L’Occitane! It is SO WONDERFUL!! I am so glad I sprang for it because it is discontinued. I bought because Moody Boo loves it and well, I do too! I believe I love it as much as my Ambre Précieux which I love to drench myself in
Thanks so much Sibyl for sharing! I really love mens fragrances. The designer selection is so much better vs women's I find... which is why most of the fragrances in my collection that I wear tend to be unisex. Thanks for bringing up the two fragrances you mention, I look forward to trying the Chopard one. Have a great day!
You're one of the very few who actually can describe how the fragrances smell, not just reading the notes from perfume websites... I own two of the mentioned and your description is so spot on... Subscribed! ❤️
Great selection... and how about Carolina Herrera Cologne? I think is so underrated and it smells sophisticated and classy. Please give it a try .. thank you 🙏!
@@jusderose Abdul Samad Al Qureshi, Ajmal, Rasasi, Lataffa..these are major houses that are eating away the established Western houses in Asia due to their price value proposition!
just blind bought the EDCN cuz you make it sound so good. I'm not putting any blame on anyone but myself if it doesn't work out lol worst case i can swap/sell it. Love your videos! And it's great to hear about some new fragrances. I believe this will be a great 2nd Hermes in my collection.
@@jusderose i have a very open mind and a vast collection. Either way it was a great deal so worst case i might make a few bucks.. but i think I'll like it. If you like Allure then you have good taste. No pressure lol
Narciso Rodriguez bleu noir is one of honest and gentle fragrances I've had. Companies have different policies, some of them invest on indirect advertising more than usual but some prefer classic marketing. Also some governments invest on advertising for their political goals that most of them are against truth and humanity. A part of this money and propaganda has affected and permeated in fragrance industry and fragrance social media. Some of brands lean to these governments for earning huge fund and capital. Therefore a large amount of money has flew in a small part of fragrance world. As a result some fragrances are bold in market and others are underrated despite their deserve.
Finally... Chanel allure homme the original is getting some love!!!! I have a 150ml bottle of it I got back in 2018 winter and I get la nuit de lhomme kinda vibes from it !
What do you know about Chanel Allure lol. The fact you would consider Allure Homme over Bdc tells me you are on to something or know a thing or two. I totally understand your viewpoint as Allure Homme got me into frags as a sales associate at Nordstrom. It is the staple or benchmark per se of what quality perfumery is. The fact you brought up Allure Homme says a lot because the expected frag most mentioned when going in that direction would be Allure Home Sport or Edition Blanch (both are ok). Both fall short of the "quality" of the scent as C.A.H.
Hello. First visit to your channel. Have subscribed. Agree with so many of your list. I have used Dunhill Century since launch. My summer scent. Also a fan of Guerlain L'Instant. Check out the now deleted Guerlain L'Ideal Cologne . Outstanding. Replacement 'Cool nowhere near as good. So Thank you. You have reminded me of memories of Chanel Allure too. [Try the Blanche edition too.]
I remember when I first smelled Tous Man sport. The opening is "Oh my god" but the dry down and the smell on my skin was actually not as good. Just to highlight this topic of "opening" vs "dry down". I have an underrated from Mont Blanc, but let's see if you can guess which one. I love both the opening and dry down. Winter smells fresh and in warm days smells fresh but has a touch of sweet yummy thing 😊
I think Toy Boy has a fun and quirky bottle that will not go unnoticed. But, in an attempt to balance things out, LIDG and Bleu Noir are also on my list. Question: would you suggest any of these as a blind buy?
Coucou 😉 Félicitations pour cette superbe liste, j'ai adoré! Curieusement, sous estimés certes, mais à part Toy Boy, mon frère et moi portons tous ces parfums. L'instant de Guerlain je suis fan! Pour l'été on aprécie aussi l'eau d'Issey; on a un vieux flacon vide des années 90, il sent toujours!!
@@jusderose ihih je garde toujours les flacons. En tout cas j'adhère totalement à toutes tes listes, tu sors du lot avec pleeeiins de parfums inattendus. Tu m'as laissé très curieux avec le Aérin Hibiscus Palm, moi qui suis ultra fan de Tangier Vanille Or et évidemment d'Estée Lauder private collection Ambre Ylang Ylang. Continue ton superbe travail! 😉

Allure is my favorite .. what a creation of the early 2000s. Classic
it really is. Almost a time capsule
Just picked up Blue Noir. Drawn to it. So different than anything I have. Part of why I am loving it.

How would you rate it
@@Pookie_Poo843 Just guessing but seems Stelios C. would give it a 10.
I agree, and I like it to remain unknown. It is one of my favs and nobody is wearing it.
@@Pookie_Poo843 definitely a 10/10. It's a soapy floral musk that blends beautifully with the skin. A wonderful creation by Francis Kurkdjian .
@@orodrigog I'm with you but if more people knew about it, maybe it wouldn't be discontinued.

Narciso Rodriguez bleu noir is one of honest and gentle fragrances I've had.
Companies have different policies, some of them invest on indirect advertising more than usual but some prefer classic marketing.
Also some governments invest on advertising for their political goals that most of them are against truth and humanity. A part of this money and propaganda has affected and permeated in fragrance industry and fragrance social media.
Some of brands lean to these governments for earning huge fund and capital.
Therefore a large amount of money has flew in a small part of fragrance world. As a result some fragrances are bold in market and others are underrated despite their deserve.
how is the performance?
Great video as always 🙃

Oh you forgot the legendary underrated GPH2! It’s gone it’s rare and it’s pricey now , still hunting for it until end of time
Bottega veneta ilusione and chanel allure are amazing
Interesting list and a very pretty top, Josephine☺! And I love your french☺!
Thank you! 😊
Linstant de guerlain sounds great, clasic, and long lasting! 😀
I need to try the Hermes Eau noir!.
Finally... Chanel allure homme the original is getting some love!!!! I have a 150ml bottle of it I got back in 2018 winter and I get la nuit de lhomme kinda vibes from it !
Unbelievable unforgettable scent :)
Absolutely!
Love your reviews and the way you make them! :)
Thank you!
I just subscribe cuz, j’ai adoré votre français accent, très jolie!
Hey Josephine. LOVE your channel. Question, should I get the Narciso Rodriguez Blue Noir EDT OR EDP ? Which one do you recommend?
Thank you
What is Bleu Noir better flanker? EDT, EDT Extreme, EDP, Parfum?
Great video once again
Thank you!
What do you know about Chanel Allure lol. The fact you would consider Allure Homme over Bdc tells me you are on to something or know a thing or two. I totally understand your viewpoint as Allure Homme got me into frags as a sales associate at Nordstrom. It is the staple or benchmark per se of what quality perfumery is. The fact you brought up Allure Homme says a lot because the expected frag most mentioned when going in that direction would be Allure Home Sport or Edition Blanch (both are ok). Both fall short of the "quality" of the scent as C.A.H.
You content n accent both are very attractive !
L'Instant and LIDGE were two of the most talked about fragrances in the 2010-2016 period.
Nice presentation , well done go ahead on thiis way
Thank you!
Hello. First visit to your channel. Have subscribed. Agree with so many of your list. I have used Dunhill Century since launch. My summer scent. Also a fan of Guerlain L'Instant. Check out the now deleted Guerlain L'Ideal Cologne . Outstanding. Replacement 'Cool nowhere near as good. So Thank you. You have reminded me of memories of Chanel Allure too. [Try the Blanche edition too.]
Thank you so much, appreciate the support 😊
I remember when I first smelled Tous Man sport. The opening is "Oh my god" but the dry down and the smell on my skin was actually not as good. Just to highlight this topic of "opening" vs "dry down". I have an underrated from Mont Blanc, but let's see if you can guess which one. I love both the opening and dry down. Winter smells fresh and in warm days smells fresh but has a touch of sweet yummy thing 😊
Please do share which fragrance it is!
Montblanc homme Exceptionnel?
For me is Legend Spirit. The downside is that performance is not awesome, but the few hours it lasts it definitely is a nice one. Would you agree?
Greetings from PR.
Hi Jus de Rose! I am considering the EDT. Will it be redundant if I already have a Declaration de Cartier? Thank's in advance
To me, the better version of declaration is S.T Dupont pour home. Timeless masterpiece.
right know i am using Versace Eros
I think Toy Boy has a fun and quirky bottle that will not go unnoticed. But, in an attempt to balance things out, LIDG and Bleu Noir are also on my list. Question: would you suggest any of these as a blind buy?
I would say Allure Homme EDT is pretty safe as well as Bleu Noir and Illusione for him
so which one of Narciso Rodriguez? EdT or EdP or Parfum?
Nice vid
Really good choices 👌👍
Thanks! Have a great weekend.
Coucou 😉
Félicitations pour cette superbe liste, j'ai adoré! Curieusement, sous estimés certes, mais à part Toy Boy, mon frère et moi portons tous ces parfums. L'instant de Guerlain je suis fan!
Pour l'été on aprécie aussi l'eau d'Issey; on a un vieux flacon vide des années 90, il sent toujours!!
Je suis ravie que cette liste t'as plu. Tu as de la chance d'avoir un flacon des années 90, c'est top!
@@jusderose ihih je garde toujours les flacons.
En tout cas j'adhère totalement à toutes tes listes, tu sors du lot avec pleeeiins de parfums inattendus. Tu m'as laissé très curieux avec le Aérin Hibiscus Palm, moi qui suis ultra fan de Tangier Vanille Or et évidemment d'Estée Lauder private collection Ambre Ylang Ylang.
Continue ton superbe travail! 😉
Keep up the good content and you will have just as many subscribers as Jeremy Frag. 👍🏻🏅
Thank you that’s so nice of you to say 😊
What about the sillage. Are the any good and how about longevity
