➡️ Watch Santal Noir Review here: th-cam.com/video/fstOmXfuq2g/w-d-xo.html Also after shooting this video I learned that Egoiste was created by Jacques Polge and François Demachy. So figures he turns around and creates something similar to Egoiste years later. ⬅️
A coworker turned me on to Egoiste in 1992. I remember it being quite sweet/woody and strong at the time. We would use three sprays, drive up to SF, party with friends, end up all over the city, and still get whiffs as we met up and drove back the next day. Good times. Too bad they are gone much like the performance of today's designer frags.
Thank you so much for the info about where to get the Dior privés a few months back. I got mitza , Oud ispahan , leather oud and cuir cannage 🙏 saved me a lot of time and heart ache.
Purple Oud is my all time favourite Dior, closely followed by Balade Sauvage. Both from Harrods. Next time I’m there, I will check out Santal Noir, since we obviously share the same tastes in Dior.
Hi Sebastian! Very interesting comparison! I have Santal Noir and I am very surprised with its performance, it lasts forever on my skin. Now I need to try Chanel Egoiste as well. I am very curious to try Purple Oud, the sales associate at Dior told me it will come to Zurich in June. Hope it won’t be a hard to get like Santal Noir.... Have a nice weekend!
Chanel no. 18 also gets compared to egoiste. I think it was on basenotes. The reviewer goes in to great detail how bois des iles was the original framework then egoiste from that DNA and also no. 18. Sounds like now you can add santal noir to that family tree.
Sebastian, it's true that some of the scents from older line are unavailable, but I've asked about Eau Noire in Warsaw Dior boutique and I was informed that I can order this scent and it will be delivered to the shop and I can get it in the same price as the other scents from the line, which still are available. Great review. I'd love to try this one as I really like Egoiste.
Hello, l reaally enjoy your review videos and comparison ones... and this one doesn't disappoint!! (Bois noir is pronounced like : [BWA noir], the S at the end of bois is not pronounced) ... Cheers!! And can't wait for future reviews!
Wow! What a great review. Bois Noir/ Santal Noir......I believe Bois means Wood... It would definitely be sad if FD is cloning, either way I really wanna try SN. Keep up the good work my brother, I absolutely love your reviews.
Kinda makes sense as Demachy worked with Jaques Polge at Chanel at the the time my favorite fragrance was created. FYI, you dont pronounce the S in Bois 😉
Sebastian, I love videos like this because I learn so much from them! Well done!! By the way, I know that on your previous channel you once made a comparing video between CD Mitzah and SL Ambre Sultan. Could you PLEEEEEEAAASE make a video on Dior's MITZAH and frags that smell similar to it AGAIN? Pretty please... :))))
Interesting 🤔 what about the similarities to bois des iles les exclusif? Many say it was the inspiration for egoiste 🤷♂️ it came out late 20's so its an oldie but a goodie.
@@ThePerfumeGuy no ehh 🤔 hmm I wonder why I hear that so often but totally trust what your saying as I've never been able to snag egoiste up here in Canada its not available anywhere we have platinum egoiste 🤷♂️ thanks chanel 🙄 and thanks dior for all your screwball distribution tactics 🤣🤣🤣
Hey Sebastian, loving ur collection sneak peak! I had a question and a request. Have u tried Dolce & Gabbana velvet line frags? If yes, could u share ur thoughts on some of them? Really wanted to see ur take on them.
Dear Sebastian, may now ... choice between santal noir and ambre nuit .. Which is the best ( or both not for spring / summer ) And do you know holy peony which i also like
I don't find the fragrances too heavy so you can pull them off all year round. That's me though. Some people say Santal Noir is potent so please test! :)
I hope it’s not a clone, and it’s just a coincident , but we will never know ! It’s happening everywhere so I wouldn’t be surprised ! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 have a great day Sebastian and welcome back TO US. thanks for leaving a comment on my Instagram page on post about SAVOY STEAM ❤️
Great review!! I really hope Santal Noir is somehow like what the old Egoiste was like...SEXY I used to love Chanel's Egoiste. It was Unique and very sexy. On me it wasn't like wearing a perfume but a sort of second skin when not oversprayed. Somehow?? Egoiste represented how I felt...but my love for Egoiste has gone.. The reformulation is terrible and has lost all sexyness. The cinnamon is not there anymore..the sweetness has gone and all thats left is a something that's not even close to what Egoiste used to be. Why reformulate something so DIVINE. After seeing this review i will for shure try Santal Noir from Dior. I really hope this scent will breath the same expression as I feel After the reformulation of Egoiste there has been only one perfume for me which gives me the same feeling as Egoiste did before the refomulation. 'Santal Royal' from Guerlain. I realy love it , has the same sexyness, but is so weak in performance and for that i think it is overpriced. I think there is cinnamon and peach in Santal Royal, reminding me of the sexyvibe of the old Egoiste. I really hope Dior's Santal Noir has that sexy vibe to it. I will purchase it from their website today.

I miss my Bois Noir Sebastian. Maybe I’ll like this Dior.

IAmCharliemouse i love balade sauvage also ! Have a bottle , as well as milly la foret , i also love vetiver and others from dior ( new look )

90's egoiste was an animal....still a top 10 frag for me in 2024

Santal noir is coming back in early june in France
Demachy puts his name on Eau noir as well.
Love to see you and your work brother
I’d love to get my nose on this one
Andy from Berkeley
Thank you .
Santal noir to me is almost beastly in performance . Also, I got a slight resemblance to egoiste.
I was researching which Chanel’s had spice! More specifically cinnamon!! I wanted spice…why does everyone get rid of the cinnamon perfumes 😢😢
Haven’t smelled either of these or any Dior Privee. Enjoyed ✌🏻
Hey i like ur vidéos, thanks for sharing ur opinions with us.
Now I’m curious to hear your take on Purple Oud --as you alluded to in this video.
I shall let you know soon! :)
My most anticipated video of the year, looking forward to it
Is it as good as oud ispahan to you
Would you call it a masterpiece
Kinda similar to Vert de Bois by Tom Ford. I can feel same notes there and similarities.
Nice battle 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Kinda makes sense as Demachy worked with Jaques Polge at Chanel at the the time my favorite fragrance was created. FYI, you dont pronounce the S in Bois 😉
Damn, should have read your comment first 😂😅
Lol I have a sample when I sprayed it I immediately thought of Chanel Egoiste from the 90s when it was rosier and spicier.
Does it lean femminent or masculine? Portrait of a lady was to femminent for me fyi
Is Egoiste identical to Bois De Isles?
I haven't noticed it will have to compare the two! :)
How many perfumes do u hv in yr collection?
2500-3000
😂😂😂😂😂😍😍😍😍😍😍👍👍👍👍

I don't get the similarities with those two. Smell wise no, but perhaps notes wise yes. I have it I will check soon! :)

Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews i have a sample ( like ambre nuit , santal but also holy peony
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews which one do you find more special ambre or santal( and suitable for a woman?)
Keep watching to find out what it smells like.

For me (living in Germany) it is even available at the online shop 😅
I think they just started selling this online from what I hear! :)
Thankyou
