God damn, isnt this beautiful, how this particular group of viewers just comeback to watch George talk about scents, I love this Just love it Thank you george :)
Wore Herod to a bonfire the other week and it did not disappoint! Bulgari Man Wood Essence is usually my go-to for bonfires, but Herod was wonderful and I look forward to buying a full bottle soon. Great stuff George!
I slightly prefer the smell of Herod compared to Layton but I ended up buying Layton due to the general consensus that Layton performs n Herod doesn’t perform well. If I’m paying $$$ I expect the frag to perform above average
Love watching and listening to your accurate and pithy comments. Your nose is experienced and well-developed and hard-wired to your supple mind. Consider wearing a hat to stay warmer whilst enjoying the cool weather.👃🏾🤠
Raghba is an absolutely belting Vanilla Beauty for very little money. I also have the Wood Intense version which is also belting and again very little money. Think both cost about £25 in total.👍👍
You've recommended a lot of great fragrances I've enjoyed. One that jumps to mind mentioned in this video is Atkinson's His Majesty The Oud. Man, it is so damn good. I can totally see it being amazing by a firepit and look forward to trying it out in that scenario. From my own experience, I also found that Creed's Royal Oud smells awesome by a firepit as well. It wasn't intentional as I thought I was going to my friend's house to be indoors, drinking wine, catching up, etc. Next thing I know, we're out in the back warming by a fire with beer relaxing and I have to say, I smelled incredible. I was a bit self-conscious to be honest though because for me, Royal Oud already projects quite nicely. The heat from the fire had me going nuclear but nobody complained at least! lol
Dude same. I've worn 150 fragrances. George recommended Atkinsons His Majesty Oud and I tried it. It ended my fragrance journey. Done. Finito. Terminado. BDC for summer. DHI for spring and fall, Atkinsons His Majesty Oud for winter. It's the best thing I've ever smelled in my life
Private Accord - a friend just got back from Jamaica, and said that all men and women in Jamaica smell like this fragrance. Then "Rasta bearded Scotsman" tells you it smells great. The universe is all coming together.
I've got a new Bottle of Herod in 2021. The longevity is 10+ hrs, the Sillage when you can smell it personally on yourself is probably 4 hrs. Then it becomes more of a skin scent. For me it is the best fragrance I've ever smelled. It just hits me differently.
@The Fragrance Apprentice thank you for the beer recommendations. I have NAFL -non alcoholic fatty liver aka my liver is shit, and I can't have anything with alcohol so cheers for the advise mate
Daniel Josier Ambre Tabac is a great fragrance for the occasion. I immediately purchased a full bottle after sampling it a few days ago. It has some similarities to PDM Oajan and By Kilian Angels Share, but it’s better than both in scent and performance IMO.
Great video thanks. Loved the list, not the usual TH-cam reviewers pushing down our throats. Loved too the setting, the fire, and the background music. Awesome. Enjoy the fake beer 🍺 😉
Check out Noir De Noir by Tom Ford....Its one of my all time favorite Fragrances...It has Chocolate truffle....Super good fragrance...It was one of my first Fragrance besides Polo Green...Polo Green is my Child...
Them Tractor Rims make the best Fire rings...I have never heard of one of them brands of beer before...Very Interesting what goes on in your world George...
I was never a fan of Aventus until I tried Alexandria's version of the original formulation of it call Brazilia Prive and then I understood the hype. Great Frag. DUA has a clone of discontinued TF Amber Absolute that is magical. I'm glad the clone houses are there.
06:15 now I understand who you were talking about. I remember when he came out with this, he said he owns the company and runs it. But in actuality it’s a partnership with Navitus. He wasn’t very clear about that and I’m guys people were exceptionally sour about it.
George i sure love you Videos a lot....i am always curious on what is coming next.....Very Nice Today George....I hope some day you become a popular producer that produces high buck movies....You deserve that to happen to you...i will pray it does....
Ugh. The Herod dilemma is killing me! I was about to purchase a bottle recently but cancelled my order due to some of the performance complaints. Its quite pricey and I wouldn’t want to be disappointed after purchasing.
What's interesting is that there are a lot of the most popular frags that I was never much of a fan of that I've gone crazy over their Parfum flankers. Examples are Blue de Chanel Parfum, Dior Sauvage Parfum and Elixir, Fahrenheit Parfum, and so on. Guess I now need to get my nose on Le Male Parfum.
Great list George! Love Herod good performance! Why do u only have 39,000 subscribers? You should have 100,000 easily. C’mon people let’s help George out!
Bought Herod this year about 3 months ago. It smells great and last a long time but projection is average for me. It is one of the few fragrances my wife really likes, so I will buy it again, but not getting that beast mode projection I had hoped for.
Is guerlain instant no good for the fire place, I thought that would be at least in the top 10 it's bang on, also so is Tom ford Noir! Great video though 👍
Victorian Tobacco is a no go for me. I got the Discovery set from Galleria. I like the rest, but Victorian Tobacco is too harsh of a Tobacco for me. Shades of Seduction and Modern Times are great IMO
Have you tried Raghba Intense Wood? It's like being in a damp church hidden in a forest that's burning a log fire and some sweet incense. It's really quite special to my nose.
That flat earth quip 😂 The vid was worth it just for that George. But then the description of Duro 🤣 Some of the best banter I've heard from you yet. Demi certainly sounding GREAT. 🤣 Speaking of Lattafa, a Herod clone from one of their sister brands (Alhambra) called Hercules I hear is pretty good. Ridiculously inexpensive too.
I love fragrances and I'm also pretty interested in watches. A lot of brands copy Rolex's designs just like fragrance houses copy Creed/Greed. Obviously you wanna support the original creator but some fragrances are just not worth hundrets of euros for me. The audience usually is also very different between cheapies and expensive niche fragrances. A college student will probably rather buy 10 fragrances for 300€ total than 1 or 2 so niche brands don't really miss out on a lot of money.
New rule: I will only watch Georges videos up to the point he mentions BOSS bottled and I am turning it off:D so basically what I am saying I am not gonna see the endings of like 15 next videos of his.. Other than that great content :D
Please do Top 10 fragrances for being home alone. Guilty pleasures. Chanel Antaeus. Smells like a wild animal and Burt Reynolds mustache. Encre Noir. I wore it to work ONCE and felt self conscious as fuck. And I wear speedos to the gym. Guerlain anything. It's all exquisite but all smells like old people.
for me "a city on fire" smells like you are eating a hot dog covered in BBQ Sauce on firework night at a bonfire. I love it but cant imagine others around me enjoying it
How can 'By the fireplace' not be on this list??
Absolutely
Love listening to you man,every single word of you makes lots of sense. Great video
God damn, isnt this beautiful, how this particular group of viewers just comeback to watch George talk about scents,
I love this
Just love it
Thank you george :)
Love the background music, reminds me of the movie Snatch
The Rabbit is properly fucked , until the zee Germans get here 😂😂😂
Lol loved that impression after spraying Raghba!!

Utterly enjoyable … as are all your vids. Thanks!
Great list and I enjoyed it and I like Hugo Boss the scent pravite accord and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed night
Hahahaha dude the demi part killed me 🤣🤣
Love watching and listening to your accurate and pithy comments. Your nose is experienced and well-developed and hard-wired to your supple mind. Consider wearing a hat to stay warmer whilst enjoying the cool weather.👃🏾🤠
Is that Ron Burgundy absolutely melting that flute in the background? Getem Ron 🎶
Now this.
This is the top 10 that I'd watch.
Can't wait for 10 Fragrances for when you're alone and editing videos
Platinum Egoíste, for sure.
Nice! Merry Advent, George. 😊👍
Same to you!
Raghba is an absolutely belting Vanilla Beauty for very little money. I also have the Wood Intense version which is also belting and again very little money. Think both cost about £25 in total.👍👍
Is it better than Mancera Aoud Vanille?
@@jankocian9659 different but certainly a banger.
Which ones better
I knew you would come around with le male le parfum! great video.

Best video ive watched in a while informative and hilarious. Good job.
George out here creating lists just to mention A City on Fire :D
been a pleasure listening to you as always, keep up the good work!
Private Accord - a friend just got back from Jamaica, and said that all men and women in Jamaica smell like this fragrance.
Then "Rasta bearded Scotsman" tells you it smells great.
The universe is all coming together.
I adore City On Fire. I finally made the purchase in April and I have been waiting for Winter to rock it out.
well cheers to you ! i enjoy every video with you .
I do wish we could get Shipyard beers in the states. I liked their beers when I drank and I'm always on the lookout for better NAs.
Great great video! 👍👍
I've got a new Bottle of Herod in 2021. The longevity is 10+ hrs, the Sillage when you can smell it personally on yourself is probably 4 hrs. Then it becomes more of a skin scent. For me it is the best fragrance I've ever smelled. It just hits me differently.
Fake beer, a fire pit, and George Atkinson reviewing 10 fragrances….
What else could you want on a cold December’s night? 🤷🏻♂️
🍺 🔥 🧑🏻
His Majesty's is ultra smooth after about 15-20 minutes at least on my skin. Nice line up for winter scents. Cheers.
Great video George! As an earth science teacher as well as a fragrance lover, this video made my day. Love the flat earth comment! 🤟
@The Fragrance Apprentice thank you for the beer recommendations. I have NAFL -non alcoholic fatty liver aka my liver is shit, and I can't have anything with alcohol so cheers for the advise mate

Dior homme intense would be on my list. Sometimes I get whiffs of myself and it smells like s'mores.
Great video thanks. Loved the list, not the usual TH-cam reviewers pushing down our throats. Loved too the setting, the fire, and the background music. Awesome. Enjoy the fake beer 🍺 😉
Congratulations George for soon reachimg the 40k mark 🎉🎉🎉 well deserved 👌👍 love the list
No one seems to talk about Across sands by Maison M. It's incredible to wear next to an open flame.
Check out Noir De Noir by Tom Ford....Its one of my all time favorite Fragrances...It has Chocolate truffle....Super good fragrance...It was one of my first Fragrance besides Polo Green...Polo Green is my Child...
Them Tractor Rims make the best Fire rings...I have never heard of one of them brands of beer before...Very Interesting what goes on in your world George...
I'm your friend George.......here way over in the U.S. Keep em coming
I have a 2019 batch of Herod and it’s a beast
George where’ve you been man?! We’re missing your videos
Thank you sir👏👏
Most welcome
I hear ya, for whatever reasons you have, keep the beer non-alcoholic… good on ya!
And ya, Baileys… in coffee…. (drooling like Homer Simpson) but not anymore for me either
I was never a fan of Aventus until I tried Alexandria's version of the original formulation of it call Brazilia Prive and then I understood the hype. Great Frag. DUA has a clone of discontinued TF Amber Absolute that is magical. I'm glad the clone houses are there.
I have Herod and it is Beast mode Fragrance for me....I have 8 of Parfums De Marly Fragrances and they are all good....
Do try some day 'Khalis Black oud', it has some ashy burnt smell with some talcum powder leaning towards something pink .
Great video, friend 🙂👍
FYI : Lattafa means kindness, Raghba means desire . You’re welcome
Glad to see Ragbha on your list! It's in my little collection. May I recommend Erdinger non alcoholic beer if you haven't tried it?
06:15 now I understand who you were talking about. I remember when he came out with this, he said he owns the company and runs it. But in actuality it’s a partnership with Navitus. He wasn’t very clear about that and I’m guys people were exceptionally sour about it.

Try kvas. It is like non alcoholic beer with health benefits added
Try Ambre Pamplemousse Rose by L'Atelier des Bois de Grasse, you'll be surprised. Ideal for such an occasion.
I mean, thw shock of jbg le parfum. I can't fathom that...
Duro has always melt like a lonely war vet with PTSD 😂
No Lune Feline by AdO or Korrigan by Lubin or "By the fireplace" by MMM?
I told you that the lemale was Great you gobblin
A nice Eagle Rare would definitely make it much better👍🥃
Herod is great!!!! Love it but Layton ex is my face by PDM
Is guerlain instant no good for the fire place, I thought that would be at least in the top 10 it's bang on, also so is Tom ford Noir! Great video though 👍
Brilliant. (Except for#9😉) ✌️
For a minute there, I thought that was Bully Mcguire.
Maison Margiela needs to release a flanker "By the Firepit"
No By The Fireplace?
No TRex or Beaufort?
You ever find something you absolutely love but it’s just not wearable for you? That’s by the fireplace for me. A 10/10 that I only wear in the house
Next "Top 10 fragrances to cuddle under a blanket" please...
lol, never knew i needed that top10 in my life
Musc Ravageur ;-)
What about my the fireplace....
looool i get it with the le male le parfum it is very very sweet but i enjoy it but i can see why its perhaps distasteful.
Victorian Tobacco is a no go for me. I got the Discovery set from Galleria. I like the rest, but Victorian Tobacco is too harsh of a Tobacco for me. Shades of Seduction and Modern Times are great IMO
Have you tried Raghba Intense Wood? It's like being in a damp church hidden in a forest that's burning a log fire and some sweet incense. It's really quite special to my nose.
i find it disgusting and everyone that I've let smell it agree
Does shaking the bottle improve the performance?
Lmao

Didn't you find
Louis Cardin Sacred = Lattafa Raghba ?
We would love to have a fragrance made that smells of your fire pit...I would way way love that...I think Smoulder is the smokiest fragrance i got....
"Depending wether you are moron or not.." ahahahaha yes yes
i expected By the Fireplace ngl
… oh, and Herod is still frickin’ good even in 2021!
I actually thought he was opening that fake beer with paco rabanne phantom.......
Didnt think there was a Fragrance Apprentice list without Ombre Leather anymore?? 😜
New rule: I will only watch Georges videos up to the point he mentions BOSS bottled and I am turning it off:D so basically what I am saying I am not gonna see the endings of like 15 next videos of his.. Other than that great content :D
So true BOSS BOTTLED and….done ✅ 🤣👌
Please do Top 10 fragrances for being home alone. Guilty pleasures.
Chanel Antaeus. Smells like a wild animal and Burt Reynolds mustache.
Encre Noir. I wore it to work ONCE and felt self conscious as fuck. And I wear speedos to the gym.
Guerlain anything. It's all exquisite but all smells like old people.
I can't wear Le Male Le Parfum. It's just too cloying for me.
What could man ask for? A lav mike, so you can open your beer up decently. :D
👍👍👍
George can wee talk about why your jeans are tucked in your socks please haha
It's cold!!!
I love how your top 10 starts with the terms "least enyojable, medicinal and rancid", not really selling me on that one 😅
