This absolutely just brightened my day. I subscribed to your watch-related TY in Late October 2018 with zero knowledge and a $12 dollar quartz watch on my wrist. You accompanied me on my deep dive into watches and it changed my whole life, as I loved it so much I ended up in the business! The fact that I'm now getting into fragrances, and here you are to help again, is such a welcomed surprise. A perfect throwback, with a spritz of nostalgia. I've been loving Courtney's videos too! All the best to you both.
I don’t know about you guys but grand soir boosts my confidence to the roof and gives me a burst of energy
I thought you only review watches and now I just bumped into this. And I'm here for it! subscribed!
Great review ! You ticked all the boxes for me 👌🏻
I’m actually on my way to smell it for the first time today 😊
I tried every fragrance from MFK till date and this is my clear favourite.
You are on that beat! I see you getting better and better!!
Grand Soir is the star of the show in the MFK lineup IMO. It’s an incredible fragrance.
PS wish you guys would start doing videos on this channel again!!
Had a girl smell it and she thought it was not good lol I will say I thought it was okay I def expected a much more incredible smell
MFK grand soir is freaking awesome. Oh my word!! This is one of the finest fragrance ever made.
I never smelled Grand Soir before , but I just purchased its clone from Lattafa called "Eternal Oud" and its soo beautiful! I can only imagine how the real deal would smell like. Great video as usual, Teddy!
Just smelled this one today and it's amazing! Maybe your nose is a little more sophisticated than mine, because I loved this on first smell. Definitely one on my short list.
good job
your content quality is amazing
Teddy, my man! Displaying the MFR! It's smells soooo good.
It's my signature scent. I can't get enough. I love it to death, great review!
yo i follow you on tiktok

I heard that grand soir smells like an old drunk man.
Does it remind you of pure havane?
@@jimkiousis not at all
Grand Soir is simple, linear & beautiful.
Good for more formal occasions.
My next pickup is him 💣😜
Can't wait to have in my collection 😁😍
I smelled it for the first time today. It changed my life
your camera work is insane
I’d love to see you do some reviews of Le Labo fragrances. Another 13 and Santal 33 are two of my all time favorites.
La labo santall 33 smells like pickles 😂
Hv a 5ml travel sample. It's simply good. Amber lovers will love this. Getting a full bottle soon. Thanks
Grand soir is a true Masterpiece!! ❤️😍❤️
what occasions do you wear it so?
Had no idea TB did perfume reviews - great to find out that he does. I love this fragrance, though my wife doesn't, for some reason.
She is scared that other women will start flirting with you because of how good it smells.
Love grand soir esp in the autumn 🥃 🍂
Man this fragrance smells beyond amazing.
I love Grand Soir, I've watched your video on Winter fragrances and decided to put my money down on a bottle blindly. No regrets so thank you!
Blind buy as well. No regrets!
@@KDubya-op3mc Its so good, its like subtle but so so pleasant and the longevity it has as a skin scent even after the first 10-12 hours is crazy!
I love Grand Soir it smell amazing,a pure class perfume
Good review my man. Grand soir is special
Thanks my friend!
Grand Soir is a masterpiece.
One of the greatest fragrances out there.
We want to see womens reactions on Grand Soir more!
I’m a woman and love it. Blind purchase and no regrets. I own BR 540 and Extrait as well.
@@KDubya-op3mc - Awesome! Thanks for your view on it 😄
@@KDubya-op3mc what’s your most fav from Maison?
Love it❤️ For me it's like a Queen of Amber (while L'air du desert Marocain is an Emperor)😍 Feeling calm and relax with it😵💫
I like grand soir and I love amber fragrances, what do you think of « au cœur du désert » is it like grand soir or different ?
@@hocineted7594 beast mode! It's similar to l'air but for me too dry and sandy. Better for a men - 🥰 Not every day scent. Good choice
The Best Amber Fragrance out there !!!
On my 2nd bottle MFK Grand Soir MASTERPIECE 🎯🔥👍🏽🔥👏🏾🔥💯🔥♥️🔥
Own it and love it.
WAIT... YOU REVIEW FRAGRANCES TOO??? Instant new subscriber here!
this is best for layering 😮 it’s the reason I bought it in the first place 😅 however, I enjoy the fragrance on its own as well, simple and beautiful
May i ask what youve tried layering this with?
Love this fragrance but a bit annoyed. Got a sample from someone, loved it, got a full bottle and I swear the sample is stronger. I mean they must’ve had the sample in their drawer for a while? Do they reformulate these that often? Anyone know how I can get my hands on an earlier bottle? Side by side the sample is heavier vanilla, Resinous, lasts all day, the bottle(authentic!) smells more lotion-ish right away.
My signature fragrance ♥️ I get sooooooo many compliments when I wear it! Everyone wants to know “what is that fragrance you’re wearing” 😍
Hey Kim do you think a man can pull this off ?
@@andremarable well…I’ve heard it smells divine on men but I have yet to experience that but it is a Unisex fragrance. Definitely a winter fragrance though. Check it out and see if your body chemistry agrees😍
2...1...6...get outta yo seats for ya hometown boy !!! I need to try this..gonna check for it at Scent Split a bit later
I'm wearing it right now. My everyday-er 😃
Agree with Markhor about Rouge 540... Seriously do not get the hype on that one... But GRAND SOIR... It's the ONLY mfk fragrance that i would splurge on... It's GORGEOUS... I'm surprised there's nothing animalic listed in the notes as I always get a civet vibe from this one... LOVE
Best smelling thing I've ever smelled.
Is this perfume for M/F ?
Is this frangrance good for school
It sucks that the only stores I can go to to smell fragrances in person before buying is limited.. if macy’s doesn’t have it and Sephora/ulta not keeping a good collection outside of a few designers lol just gotta figure out notes when online buying and what to look for knowing what I like and don’t and hope for the best
neiman marcus, had the full line if mfk
Blind buy it's more fun that way
Just get it. Enough said.
Is projection that intimate? Like people cannot detect it unless they approach your neck??
Lies. Has monstrous projection for me
A warm, smoky and refined Amber.
Reddish resin from conifers, its name derived from the Greek "Ambriosos" means immortal, and this perfume in 50 years will not have taken a wrinkle.
I was afraid that it was sweet, but it is not the case, if not by the black and natural pod of its Vanilla. For the non-dominant Tonka is positioned in the background and with restraint ...
and THAT, my friends, is very good. By imposing this one as the dominant note in all Orientals this past decade, the flame between it and me ended up being extinguished.
I became disgusted with it, going from "I love it, it's one of my favorite notes" to "Again? they don't have anything else on hand or something" because it dominates and tyrannizes the other notes. At the time when Pierre Hermé claimed that he hated Tonka, I was thinking "How is that possible?" now I understand better.
Anyway, here it only serves as a support and so much the better, just like Cistus.
A creamy, dimensional scent that evolves slowly. I prefer it after 1 hour.
It reminds me a bit of Dior "Vanilla Diorama" as it is a spicy ballet of Cardamom, Patchouli and African Cinnamon (from Ceylon or Madagascar).
In conclusion, I initially thought it was boring and trite...
After an hour of evolution, I completely change my mind.
7,5/10
I assume you're not trying the first batch of GS. In my opinion based on the first batch bottle. The tonka is really loud, unlike the shy kitten purr of current production. Heck it only last 4 hours, while the first batch last overnight and easily detectable on wrist by nose.
Can’t find this perfume anywhere in the UK
It’s practically like gold dust rn. Hasn’t been in stock anywhere for months.
What do you think of le male le parfum? I’m new to your channel btw
Would there ever be reviews on solid cologne? I see them advertised here and there and was curious to see how they would compare to sprays
Dude, don't spill the beans. Lol... j/k.. I like Fulton and Rourke and Cremo. Both great solids.
maison francis cologneee got these hes all over me
I tried smelling Baccarat Rouge. Both versions. I couldn’t smell it. As in I could not detect what it smelled like. Maybe soft cotton candy. Was so weird.
i was exactly the same, couldn't smell a thing lol
Probably the most common "nose-blind" fragrance I've heard of. I also struggle to smell the full profile of Baccarat Rouge
@@BigDawgCAM yes they were selling it as a super sexy smell for college guys. I’m like 30asf so idk if it be my taste if I could smell it lol.
@@markhor1988 I'm 27 and I recently switched to using Dior Homme Intense as my daily driver and it's definitely now my favorite scent. More mature than the Versace Eros I (and everyone else) wore in college
If I'm just looking for compliments, though, Club de Nuit Intense Man Limited Edition is still definitely my go-to. I don't personally like it that much, but damn if people don't go crazy over it
@@BigDawgCAM I went atm Creed Aventus and Terre de Hermes for Work. For going out its Out Wood Tom Ford and Black Afgano
I layer this with a chocolate gourmand…fabulous!
Yeah I layer this with Demeter dark chocolate
Good
I think Grand Soir is a warm, elegant scent that is mostly suited to the late fall and winter.
For me it is a more sophisticated mature scent for someone that dresses in cashmere and fine fabrics -this is not a casual fragrance by any means. It is not a young informal scent. This is for someone who dines in fine restaurants and travels.
Loved this comment! 100%
can grand soir work in summer nights?
yes.
Teddy, respectfully I have such a widdle crush on you. You are so cute!
Is it worth it to get the 200ml? Over the 70ml
Nope, it’s mostly just for formal occasions
Yes
Yes! 200ml better than the 70ml.
I always prefer intimate scents … beast mode perfume feels a bit vulgar to me .. just my personal opinion . Love grand soir !
Wait what?! I thought you only did watches?!
Bought some, and I have to admit I'm not a fan of the vanilla, cigar smell type men's fragrance. If you're in your 60s and love watching the Godfather this scent may be for you.
Smells like one of my grandmother's french perfumes from the 70's. It comes on VERY strong and the dry down is still very intense on my skin. For me, it's too masculine.
Why can’t no one say his last name right? He’s Armenian just like the Kardashians. All Armenian last names ends in -an. It’s Kurdi-jan (Kurdijan). Not Kurr-jaaan or Kurt-jan🙄🫣😖
Actually I spoke with a representative from MFK, they said not to pronounce the “d”
this fragrance has the most sexiest smell ever
Not a fan of this one as a man's fragrance. I kept thinking there was a rich old lady stood behind me.
Very Linear, nothing special, wasn't impressed at all with it. Not a Niche fragrance for me. Save your money. There are tons of much better Amber/Vanilla fragrances out there. Don't see the hype or any kind or sort of magic in this
Lacks projection. I can barely smell it
I smell it on the skin for quite a while but agreed that it doesn't project intensely.
Ahhh cheap
Nauseating!
