Welcome back to another video guys! another tag video it's been quite a while maybe two years that i
I haven't done one of these so a little concept here that I talked to some people they thought
were pretty cool, a lot of people ask me all the time "what's your holy grail fragrance with this
note or that note?" so I thought let me put together a little tag video that is going
to embody those favorite notes, my favorite notes and one particular fragrance that embodies that
note perfectly, that portrays that fragrance note perfectly and of course at the end of this
video since it's a tag video I'll tag seven reviewers that will continue this tag and give
you guys some great options to try, so without any further ado guys let's hop into the choices ;)
Kicking things off here within one note that I absolutely love if you guys follow my channel, my
taste, you know I love barbershop fragrances, I love my fougeres, this particular one here is a modern
take on the fougere on the lavender, very well made, very well balanced, and the fragrance is called
1725 by Histoires de Parfum also known as Casanova, no mistake here, no accident this
thing is called casanova because it is the "casanova" think about a gentleman that's well
dressed, well groomed, well-versed, this is such a pleasant lavender fragrance, it's creamy, it's a
little bit spicy, it's going to have that fougere, barbershop, lavender, but it's not as pungent or
animalistic because you don't have a really strong vetiver or oakmoss in the base, it's rather very
linear but very intriguing, sensual type of a lavender scent, it's very inviting very
compelling just great. We have some citruses up top, a gorgeous note of lavender in the middle
with some vanilla, sandalwood and amber in the base, I'd say this is like an oriental vanilla, so it's
like a modern take on the fougere, 1725 is one of my holy grail lavender type scents, if you love
lavender fragrances guys, this is one you can't dismiss. We're going to keep things modern here
because I want to make sure that the fragrances I'm giving you here today you'll be able to get
yourselves a bottle, if you do want to, no sense to me giving you guys something that's really
hard to find, vintage, discontinued, it's going to be a pain in the butt so I'm going to keep it
really cool really modern, with this one here, my next note which is tobacco. I love tobacco
of course with any one of these notes there's always a range, you can have different things
paired up with that particular note that will give it a very different nuance but I'm going
with an oriental tobacco, to me one of the best modern day tobacco fragrances that money can buy, this
of course, Tom Ford Private Blend Tobacco Oud. It's going to be a tobacco that's laced with oud
but not only oud, you have a gorgeous whiskey note up top, I love boozy scents, the tobacco is
going to be up front and center, I'd say this is an oriental spicy tobacco but you definitely get that
pipe tobacco vibe, that's going to be wet, it's going to be enveloping all these spices, there's this
gorgeous patchouli almost cocoa-like and the oud of course gives that animalistic
nuance to the fragrance that makes it very daring, very unapologetically and bold
a great tobacco fragrance, like I said, one of the best money can buy, it is discontinued from the
oud collection, from the private blend but it's going to be ported into their signature collection,
Tom Ford Signature Collection, recently they just released Costa Azura into that collection and
this one here I hear around September, October will be released in the signature line so
don't despair you don't have to pay a normal lag to get a Private Blend bottle which is now very
hard to find, not very hard to find but very expensive, the price is climbing just
wait a few months and you will be able to get this if you want to get this for a much affordable price in
the signature line. But needless to say, this is a gorgeous fragrance, a modern day masterpiece, Tobacco Oud
from the Private Blend. It's tobacco to the max ;) The third note here, you guys
know I absolutely love this particular note and the note of vetiver is the note we're talking here
it could be the smoky vetiver, the fruity vetiver, the earthy vetiver, no matter what, I love the smell
but I'm going to give you guys a perfect modern day vetiver fragrance that encapsulates everything
I love in this note and it's of course Lunar Vetiver from Amouroud. If you guys know and follow
this channel you know I love this brand, I think they are criminally underrated, if you haven't
heard about this brand or tried anything that they have to offer it is a must try guys, Wet Stone is a
great aquatic with a backbone, Oud Tabac is a great tobacco and oud type of a fragrance that's
very oriental, very bold, but we're talking about Luna Vetiver here, I don't want to diverge here
this stuff is just incredible, it's an everyday signature scent, if you love vetiver and you
want something that hits you from all different angles, you got the fruity nuance, you got the
smoky nuance, you got the earthy nuance, because they have all different sorts of vetiver in here
they have javanese vetiver, they have haitian vetiver, they have like a bourbon vetiver
so it is vetiver to perfection guys, if you like the note of vetiver like myself this is one, forget
about must try, this is a must-have if you love vetiver, you know you love it, and this is one you
have to get if you love vetiver like myself. Luna Vetiver is a perfect on the vetiver
note, you have the root, you have the leafy part of it, like I said, it hits you from all different
angles, the name Lunar Vetiver is very fitting to this fragrance because it is
out of this world good and luna meaning the moon, so it's out of this world good guys
a great vetiver fragrance. This next one here you can call it a barbershop but I like to
call it more of a green fougere, sure barbershop, fougere, I get that. But the base is what I love
about this fragrance because you have the most absolute perfect natural oakmoss money can buy
it's not that expensive guys, it is a vintage fragrance like I said I wasn't going to give you guys a
vintage, I'm giving you a vintage because it is rather easy to find and quite affordable because
no one's really wearing this fragrance anymore like they used to, it's kind of an old fragrance
but a tremendous fragrance guys. If you like oakmoss this is a perfect oakmoss signature
type of a scent. Azzaro Pour Homme, an amazing fragrance. This could have easily been my signature scent
I love this stuff, it has this very spicy introduction with anise, and it has cardamom
it has caraway, a lot of spices up top but then in the middle you get the lavender from regular
barbershop fragrances, you have the coumarin, of course the tonka with a little bit of sweetness going
on, but the base is absolutely incredible with vetiver and oakmoss. The oakmoss here is bold
there's some musks in here also which adds more amplitude to that animalistic undertone
perfect oakmoss, you get the the green the pungent feel, the musky feel, and the mossy green that's
very grassy and very animalistic that I absolutely love. This is a perfect oakmoss fragrance we all
know with Ifra regulations oakmoss is something that's very neutered and muted these days, you're
not going to get the perfect profile of the moss element in a lot of the releases these
days, because it's very controlled, you can get very small doses of oakmoss and this here is
oak moss to the max guys, check it out Azzaro Pour Homme, one of the best fragrances ever made from 1978, a
masterpiece, a classic, you guys know all about it. Next up boozy accord, when you talk about
boozy accord it could be tequila, it could be rum, it could be cognac, or my favorite whiskey.
This particular fragrance here has spices, whiskey, creamy sandalwood, coconut, it's like a liqueur, like
a whiskey, this is like a coconut flavored whiskey, just that good guys, it's so good you want to drink it
I'm talking about Fan your Flames from the house of Nishane. We all know Nishane
Hacivat is a great "Aventus" kind of a fragrance, not exactly a clone but it takes a lot of
elements from Aventus, they have a lot of great stuff, Ani which is like one of my favorite spicy,
vanilla, fragrance to date, this one here Fan you Flames is a great whiskey based fragrance like i
said it's going to get a little bit of a gourmand feel with that beautiful coconut-infused whiskey
it is just out of this world good guys, it's so good you'd want to pour this and drink it it's
just that good, I can't describe this as simple as it's so good you want to drink
there's also a little bit of a woody undertone here i think there's oud in here as well, it adds
this bitterness and animalistic undertone but this is like niche through and through when you talk
about niche quality when you talk about creation, creativeness without constraints, it's one of
the best fragrances you can buy if you like boozy whiskey type of fragrance, Nishane Fan your Flames
is a boss a ceo type of a fragrance and of course if you love boozy, it's a must try guys, Fan your Flames
amazing. This next one here you could call it a hidden gem i talk about this fragrance on and
off here on the channel, I don't talk as much as I would like to talk about this fragrance it would
easily make a lot of my top videos, because it's a little hard to find i don't think it has been
discontinued I think you can find this easy in Europe but not so much here in North America or
when you do find it here it's quite expensive, but if you have access to this fragrance guys
you must try it, because when it comes to leather there's nothing better and i'm talking
about Bottega Veneta Pour Homme eau de parfum. Now, when I say there's nothing better
it depends on the leather we're talking about, if we're talking about rough and tumble
skanky old-school leather this is not what you're looking for, but when you talk about modern supple
suede velvety kind of a leather that's succulent that's voluptuous and just attractive
smells just so good guys i'm telling you right now, the bottom of the fragrance has this texture
that emulates a leather texture and it smells just that good, you have some iris in here
you have some floral nuances in the middle, the leather is done to perfection, when you
wear this fragrance it just dresses you like a perfect suede leather guys, it's awesome
to fee,l it's awesome to smell, you're gonna smell incredible, it's attractive, it's compelling, it's
one of those guys, it's one of those fragrance that sits like the Dior
Homme Intense of the world, it's one of those guys, if you're looking for a very sensual
leather fragrance to wear Bottega Veneta Pour Homme eau de parfum is as good as they come. Last but not least
here my seventh note, the note of iris which is a floral note, my favorite floral note, I think only
second to immortelle that I'm getting to love even more and more as the years go by, but we're
talking about iris here, a fragrance that came out in 2005 way ahead of its time and then it was
re-released in 2011 and then again re-released in 2020, it's got completely destroyed nothing like what
the fragrance was, if you managed to find a bottle from 2011 like the one I'm going to show you now
you have a gorgeous masterpiece and I'm talking about Dior Homme from Dior. This stuff here is iris
with cocoa, like this iris butter, it's buttery it's a little bit gourmand with the cocoa, it's
a little bit powdery, some earthy patchouli in here, it smells like a million bucks guys
guys and gals can wear this, it's definitely androgynous, they call it the quintessential metrosexual
I understand, I see where they're going here, but it is absolutely incredible, it took me a little while to
warm up to this fragrance i thought it was a little bit too feminine when i first tried it
back in 2005, only to fall in love with it years later guys, it's incredible, if you like iris this is
a must-have and especially if you find this older bottle here from 2011 not the 2020 because that is
a completely different fragrance, not as creamy, as gourmand and as delectable as the 2011 or 2005
even better if you find the one with the metal stamp. Alright guys, so those are my seven favorite
notes and those fragrances that I love of course that could change tomorrow, I can give you guys
