I have full bottles of all those, with the exception of Scandal and Le Barbier de Tanger of which I have decants. All very solid. I wore New York Intense by Parfums de Nicolai this past Sunday (my Fougere day), and I'm wearing a layering of Russian Leather by Memo and Mr. Blass by Bill Blass today. Russian Leather is a Leather Fougere and Mr. Blass is a very, very, very nice under-the-radar cheapie Fougere-like fragrance (no lavender listed). I'm a stickler for the word "fougere" being used promiscuously. It might be "malleable" but not to the extent FragCom bangs it around. I wouldn't call a surreal painting Impressionism just like I wouldn't call Polo Green or Roja Elysium a Fougere. Impressionism has the 1888 painting Impression Sunrise by Monet as its prototype, and the Fougere has the 1882 Houbigant Fougere Royale as its prototype. All of yours were fougeres with Scandal and Xeryus being probably the least so and most questionable. It's a dominant lavender-coumarin accord that pretty much defines the fougere.
would be helpful to either link the fragrances in the video or put the names in the description. some of them were french and it was hard to figure them out from your speech.
I smelled Beau du Jour at Sephora recently. I love it and is at the top of my to buy list,( right next to N&W of course.) I loved BdJ so much I surreptitiously sprayed twice under my colar. 😂 imo its a dry fougère with lots of patchouli ... sooo good
NY Intense is pretty beautiful. And what can I possibly say about Fougere Royale? It's the King of Men's Frangrances to me. ❤❤❤❤ I would also include Bois Du Portugal, one of my most favourite fragrances of all times (and I know about you too 😁). The second one I'll include is Viride by Orto Parisi. Has become an instant love for me, as well as one of my top 5.
Nice picks! My favorite 10 fougeres atm are (no particular order): Lancome Hypnose Homme, Guerlain Heritage (EDT), Lalique Pour Homme (EDP), Cartier Pasha (EDT), Aramis Tuscany, Dior Sauvage Elixir, Jacomo de Jacomo, Mauboussin Homme, Loewe Esencia Pour Homme (EDT) and Amouage Beach Hut Man that de facto is a fougere made without the classic fougere notes: mint instead of bergamot, ivy instead of lavender and myrrh instead of coumarin. It's like if the fougere genre was born in Arabia and not in France. A reinterpretation. Cheers!
@@rossmarshall4947 I find it like a modernized, more beefy and more upscale Drakkar Noir. DN is also very spicy and shave foam/soap-like. Remember that barbershop is a sub-genre of the fougere family. Not all fougeres are barbershops, but all barbershops in the French style are fougeres.
Hey Dan, your fougere fragrances have reignited my passion for them. I was just also inspired by Sebastian's (the perfume guy) recommendation of Pasha CartierParfum as a barbershop choice. You need the check this one out if you haven't! Although it doesn't have lavender, it does have a lavender calming feel. It's also warm and regal. And as always Gravitas is one of my go to's. 👌
Solid list Dan. Always love your lists and compilations, but this one is close to my heart since i am a sucker for fougeres too. I would swap in Bracken Man for Fougere Royale and Fiero Casamorati for Scandal. Rest of the list is exactly how i would like it in my collection 😊
fiero truly is a nuclear strength eau sauvage, i really enjoy it. i have scandal parfum and to me its more like guerlain heritage, has a modern twist. i allso love scandal though
Great list including a few I’d never heard of before, thank you! As a more affordable alternative to Invasion Barbare, I’ve enjoyed Paisley by Geo F. Trumper very much.
@@jonstern7511 will be sure to look into these. I keep recommending Patrick cologne to Dan from Fragrances of Ireland but as of yet no reviews for that one. One of my favorites in the genre and inexpensive at the 50 dollar range if not less
For those in North America, another TH-camr recently turned me onto what he considers to be a great alternative to Fougere Royale - Hawthorne's Spicy and Aromatic Barbershop (Play). Also by Rodrigo, I hear it's quite similar. Currently still a decent discount on the website too. For those looking for a great clone of Rive Gauche Pour Homme - De Flore from Athena Fragrances. Sebastian was totally right about that one. God bless Santa-Self. 😂 He's so kind to me. 🎄
@@MrSmelly1977 i am truly bummed your perfume brand doesn't support international shipping though haha, i somehow managed to get gravitas and loved it but my craving doesn't stop at that! Chypre fulminare sounds amazing
You had me at platinum egoiste! I must try this one if it has similarities. Thanks for sharing this Dan! Oh and I couldn’t agree more about the excessive positivity- the word awesome makes me cringe! 😩
Great selection of fragrances in this informative video. I would also thrown in. Lomond by Executive Shaving Company. Great fragrance in the ball -ark of Beau de Jour but with its own nuances and better performing. Great job by Matt Wilson. I’ve got Gravitas Pour Homme coming for Xmas. Really looking forward to it!
I was gonna buy Beau de jour but realized it smells already like something I have called Gravitas Pour Homme. haha Also- Roja Danger is amazing. Enjoy it more than Scandal
It’s not shilling if you promote your own brand. It’s common sense. Shilling is when you pretend to be unconnected to a product and sing it’s praises with a secret ulterior motive. Thanks for the comment.
@@MrSmelly1977 I could have phrased it differently, but let's be honest. You're starting to sound a lot like Jeremy always talking about Fragrance one and office for men. I'm a daily viewer, well-versed in your brand, as all your other viewership, we all know your products, and their perfumer. There's no need for constant repetition.
If I have a brand and am running a sale then of course I will mention it in every single video I release during that sale. It would be idiotic not to. The sale has been hugely popular and successful and we have tons of happy customers who got a great deal. My promoting it takes up but a few seconds of the video. Furthermore it is totally transparent that I co-own the brand. I fail to see how any reasonable person living in the real world could object to this. Thank you for your comment. I welcome the debate.
I love fougeres and this is a very nice list. I would have included MFK Masculin Pluriel. One of the best modern fougeres IMO.
Thank you!
Good one
I have it and it's stellar
Best fragrance youtuber by far! Bravo Dan!
Thank you very much for the support .
I agree
Own most of the ones you introduced here and absolutely love New York Intense!!
Nice list! Surprised TF Fougere d'Argent wasn't mentioned yet. That's the best one I've come across to date.
Thank you !

Enjoyed the list I'd add 1725 for a modern take on a fougere
Great scent

Stellar list! I'd add Rive Gauche.
Thanks yes that it a great discontinued gem!
Halston 1-12,Lauder for men, Loewe Ecencia Azzaro pour homme and many more
Thank you!

Oh I can’t believe I left that out! I’ll do a Part 2 next
Absolutely.
Thank you for your recommendations, melano cento and penhalligon’s sartorial are 2 of my most favorite fragrances
Thank you. !
Thanks Dan, good selection, NY intense is great 👍
Thank you.
i cherish my vintage bottle of xeryus...believe it or not ive still never smelled the rouge flanker but it gets high praise

Sauvage Elixir? Personally I wouldn’t place that in this category as I find it very spicy and on my skin I don’t really get the green freshness.

Hello,between Houbigant-Fougere Royale and Nicolai-New York Intense which one is the better fragrance if you could buy only one?
Hey Dan, long time fan. What're your thoughts on Platinum Egoiste?
I really enjoy that one. It seems to divide opinion .
Some top picks - great job Dan!
Thank you!
Love the list. What do you recommend from floris?
Not necessarily fougeres but 89, Special 127 and Neroli Voyage are my favourites from Floris
@@jonstern7511 will be sure to look into these. I keep recommending Patrick cologne to Dan from Fragrances of Ireland but as of yet no reviews for that one. One of my favorites in the genre and inexpensive at the 50 dollar range if not less
I love Elite and No.89

Versace L'homme is a fantastic affordable fougere fragrance. Opening is very polarising but settles into a beautiful soapy aroma
I'd put you in my top 10 TH-cam creators
Thank you so much for the kind words and the generous Super Thanks Shawn.

Thank you!
What about Tom Ford : Fougère d’argent. You should do a review on this one.
How bout a video of your favourite modern fragrances?
I may do that ! Thanks
Good evening Dan. I remember a few years ago you introduced me to Milano Cento Him. It really is my kind of fragrance, and I love it. Thank you. :0)
Thank you! It’s a beauty,
Hello does houbigant Duc de Vervins l'extrême got good projection and good longevity? Thank you
I find it to last well.
what do you think about Zino Davidoff (vintage) and Creed Bois du portugal?
I love Bois du Portugal very much. I have and enjoy Zino too
You look really good right now.
Everyone is forgetting about Pasha De Cartier Eau de Toilette on the best Fougere list it's CARTIER FOR GOD SAKES 👑
Great selection of fragrances in this informative video. I would also thrown in. Lomond by Executive Shaving Company. Great fragrance in the ball -ark of Beau de Jour but with its own nuances and better performing. Great job by Matt Wilson. I’ve got Gravitas Pour Homme coming for Xmas. Really looking forward to it!
Thank you so much I hope you love Bon Viveur!
Is the 2017 Eau Sauvage Parfum a Fougères ?
I think it is official classed as a citrus aromatic.
Are Invasion Barbare and 1725 redundant?
No there is quite a difference I think.
FOUGERE FRAGRANCES" i have no idea what that.. but watching dan youtube educated me.
Thank you Khai!
Im surprised no Rogue Perfumery
Can’t believe I forgot Bon Monsieur! Part 2 coming up!
And... B612 by Nishane ⁉️
Cleanest, soapiest fougere?
Drakkar Noir!
I'm expecting this list to be quite good. 0:32
Penhaligon's Sartorial is an extraordinarily appealing scent, also discontinued, BUT its performance is quite sad. 😢
Thank you! I didn’t know it was discontinued !
Gotta love a fougere, my favourite scent profile. Great content as always sir 🫡🙏
Thank you very much,
No Bon Monsieur? 😮
I should have included that !!
New York intense 🤤
Love it
First
Thank yiu
It feels wrong to wear some of these unless you're dressed up.
make´your smelly stuff available in EU !
We will hopefully do that soon
I was gonna buy Beau de jour but realized it smells already like something I have called Gravitas Pour Homme. haha
Also- Roja Danger is amazing. Enjoy it more than Scandal
Oh really ! Ha well thank you I am glad you have Gravitas !
