Aaron Terence , I need to tell that, I'm not a professional in perfumery, I'm just just a simple person that love perfumes. It been 2 years that I've been watching all your fascinating video amongst from others reviewers. But you are my number one of all. Really. I work as a chef for many years now, the nose of chefs are very sensitive with smell and most chefs really don't like much perfumes at all. It is also really hard to work in such environment wearing perfumes. Because I don't want to make anybody feel uncomfortable because of what I am wearing. And I do respect that. Working in an environment where we focus a lot of what we are doing, plus the heat, will change our brain from the concept of wearing even the most beautiful perfume. The brain is such an amazing mechanism that change mood from the environment that we are. But as soon as I get home, after a nice shower,. I love wearing a beautiful perfume even my new recent samples, to try and will buy after if I like. To relax me and the perfume takes me to another place , another calming beautiful mood, making me wiser and all that before I go to bed. It's amazing the mood the perfumes do to me. On my day off I will do the same. I love art, I love perfumes, I love you guys the perfumers thank so much and please, I hope that the AI will not take you over one day. But until this ever happened, thank you so Aaron. I need to try patchouli ardent. The video that U made from this, yes I still remember it. I'm a huge fans of Amber perfumes. Which perfumes of your is type amber?
Stay safe and until then, I will wait for your next video. Again, thank you to be here.
🦄🦄🦄🦄
Thank for sharing. I too work in a kitchen. It’s amazing to me how temperature changes a fragrance performance. I’ve skin tested many fragrances that sing off my skin when I walk into the cooler. A
Another lovely review. I must say, I really enjoy these top 10 lists. Well done Aaron!
Amazing list you put together. I absolutely love Ambre Nuit and Black Orchid. 🎉 Spot on. Well done!
I'm so happy the autumn is here and finally can pull of my fav rich dense frags. First Loccitane ambre, beast mode, first release. highly recommended. lots of love Aaron ♥️
Seeing these top 10 videos are really special.
Great topic.My personal favourite amber TF is amber absolute I think it goes in a totally different direction from what’s so annoyingly common these days which’s super synthetic woody ambers,it’s so rich,complex and natural smelling amber.awesome video
I love this, I want more! One video for each fragrance familiy? Though my favourite beyond this one are the Musky, Leathery an Iris ones.
Great choices. I have most of these & Ambre Nuit & Patchouli Ardent are my favourites from your picks. Grand Soir is definitely another that I love.
Ambers are my absolute favorites! Great video idea
Spot on, Aaron.
The first two Dior fragrances I acquired last year (and the only two to date) are Tobacolor and Ambre Nuit. Both are exquisite and Tobacolor is especially very much a niche fragrance and much overlooked and packs a punch which is unexpected for a designer house. With all the talk of reformulation I made sure not to wait to buy Tobacolor as I think it’s brilliant. Yes, Serge Lutens sold out to Shiseido a few years ago. I would have included MFK’s Grand Soir on your list.
Always look forward to your insightful reviews.
Great video. I love all the fragrances on your list.
I love how you review and describe these scents, I feel like I'm listening to a fellow artist. Best wishes💜🙏
WOOOOOOOO!! A top ten list!! 🦄🦄
Great review Aaron , I’m a big fan of Guerlain perfumes I’ll be interested to hear your opinion on more of their line .
Lovely and time of the year clip, thanks. Just got Ebene Fume TF
Great list! Happy to see two of my favorites: Black Orchid (the dry down is amazing) and Black Afgano. Love BA in cooler/cold weather and tried it once in the summer. Hated it so much I couldn't believe it was the same fragrance. I'd also add Histoires de Parfums Ambre 114.
Another Aaron video sick
Some of my favourite ambers: TF Amber Absolute, Hermes Ambre Narguille, Initio Absolute Aphrodisiac, Hermes L'Ombre Des Merveilles. Also to me TF Tobacco Oud has an ambery vibe to it that I enjoy a lot.
Thank u Aaron, excellent video. Stay safe brother n God bless 🙌
I love love love that you just went into it without "pls subscribe, buy this buy that, many jokes etc". I don.t know what the rest are thinking, it.s not much to ask.
A Top 10 list from ATH??? Shoot it directly into my veins. Great video, Terence. Keep the lists coming.
I kinda find myself into the same position when it comes to black orchid. That fragrance has opened my senses and the attraction for fragrances. Thank you for your time to share with us the knowledge!!
Can you briefly tell me how black orchid smells and can young guys wear it with confidence?
Great video focusing on specific ingredient style. I still have a little left of your original Ambre Extreme 🦄
I bought Ambre Nuit directly from Dior this year and I don‘t have any issues with longevity. Easily lasts 8 hours on my skin. Love it!
I also started to enjoy dark fragrances all year round, not just in cold weather, but they have to be smooth and sweet, not too smoky or too spicy, and definitely not bitter or sour.
Still in Thailand and still watching your videos. I think I've finally caught up and watched everything!. X
I love ylang ylang too Aaron ❤️ as well as dark and well based perfumes 😊
👌Keep it up the good work Aaron, you channel for me was Unique, which i like a lot !
Very excited for the Ambre Nuit re review. Love that fragrance but it's gone up in price quite a bit from what I remember and it would be a shame if its gotten weaker as well.
Autumn is my favorite season and a lot of it has to do with my love for the dark amber fragrances. TF Black Orchid thrives in the cold weather, it's bold, dark and mysterious. It's a fragrance that transforms hours later in the dry down and stays on your clothes.
So glad to see Guerlain Patchouli Ardent in this list. Such an underrated fragrance. Ambery, smoky, earthly. Masculine at best, but definitely wearable. Great performance as well. A must have!
What’s up Aaron.
Love those hand movements.
My Ambre Nuit lasts for ages - on clothes it’s still very strong the next day even if, during the wear, it doesn’t feel as strong - typical ‘nose blindness’ I expect but it certainly lasts - hope the newer bottles are not poor as it’s one of my staples! TF Noir Extreme and Ombré Leather are also among my favourites but I’m out of both right now. Might wear Black Orchid as my SOTD today though after watching this.
It's has to be tough being the absolute best reviewer on CZcams. You are the standard for what reviewers should be and deserve 100x more subscribers.
Ambre nuit is amazing! My favourite from Dior
I love ambers in perfumery. Most of the fragrances in my collection have an amber raw material in their composition. Would love to see a video on some of BDK Parfums fragrances, specifically Gris Charnel, Rouge Smoking, and Tabac Rose. One of my favorite houses by far.
Niche, to me, still is under the traditional definition of "a house that strictly sells perfume", ignoring stuff like candles, makeup etc. I think niche is becoming widely available.
Armaf is a niche too?
I don’t think candles disqualifies a niche house, scenting candles is a strict fragrance business. Obviously this is referring to Diptyque.

I didn't know he did Top 10s! 🙌🏾
Thanks Aaron.
Hello Aaron, love your Videos 😘
Btw, i heard they released a new Tom Ford Noir Extreme Parfum, maybe that one performs better now. Greetings from Germany
My son is a huge fan of yours! He owns something like 15 of your scents. He let me try several of them, and honestly, I loved every single one of them. I really need to purchase a few of them, well, maybe I will start with 3 or 4 :) One thing I have noticed when comparing expensive perfumes like yours and others like Creed (i know you are not a fan) against dupes/nockoffs... the originals are noticeably better. The originals have little to no "chemical" smell whereas the dupes have a notable chemical smell. Thanks for your videos and your good works. Take care from America.
Would love to hear what do you think of Ambre Premier and Psychedelique from Jovoy Paris.
Nice to see Bad Boy getting some love too!
I'm very surprised you've never mentioned Andy Teur lair du desert Marocain. I think you'd love that . Quality 🔥
I believe Francis Kurkdjian with Dior is re-releasing Ambre Nuit among a couple others very soon. I'd hold off reviewing it until I could try the new version/ formulation.
Honorable mention, Bentley intense. I know it isn’t a high dollar item, but to me, it holds up to this day, with many much pricier fragrances. Cheers ATH, amazing as always.
Aaron you should really try Ambre Précieux from Maître parfumeur et Gantier , this is the BEEEEESSSST french perfumery style amber. It's a beast I love it
A top 10🤩🤩🤩
I think you may like the new Tom Form Noir Extreme Parfum Aaron. It’s quite nice.
Issey Noir Ambre is one of my favorite Amber scents.
Love amber, thank you.
Hello Aaron hope you're doing well I love Amber fragrances I heard that mfk grand soire is great
Your background is simple yet elegant and help people focus on the review instead being distracted by hundred of bottle like most reviewers 😂
I'm in my 30s & I have worn Chergui for years... It transports me to different realms.. ❤️
The best for me is Ambra, Jeroboam. Love ❤️ 😍 all the mentioned in this video.
Thanks for the review! Patchouli Ardent is apparently discontinued. I have a friend who has an older bottle of BO, but I'm not sure if it's the first formulation. I'll reply here if it is!
My favorites are Ambre Fetiche, Ambre Dore and Ambre 11r.
Try Blqck Gemstone for a really dark fragrance 😎
Tauer - L'Air du Desert Marocain. Great spicy dry amber.
Not sure where you can get Arabian Oud's Arabian Nights Black. I got mine in the Oxford St Arabian Oud shop. Happy to let you try mine
Please do one for vanilla 😩🙏🏿
My number one in the amber category is Au Coeur du Désert by Andy Tauer - I can't stop wearing it :)
I'm looking forward to the Ambre Nuit test. I got a bottle last year and it seems weak to me. The scent is still great but after like 3 hours it's gone...
I like Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan scent. It does smell nice with the Vanilla,Amber, Benzoin and Myrrh. Though this scent tends to be subdued and sort of a closer skin scent.
Which is fine. Not everything must be announced.
Serge Lutens Ambre Sultan is fairly older too .Great office or date scent.
I am 37 and this is just superb and timeless.
If you do want more projection then try Guerlain Bois Mysterieux. Which is more spicy
My favorite Serge Lutens overall would be Écrin de Fumée.
Chergui for me, is still a beast in terms of performance. I had a bottle in 2019 and that stuff was way overpowering with just 3 sprays. Lasted an easy 12 hours or more.
Hi Aaron! Would it be possible to do a review of some Dua fragrances. It’s an inspiration house that also makes their own fragrances and there’s been an ongoing war in fragcomm about the quality of their ingredients/oils. We’re so divided on this. If you mention Dua in the Fragrance Marketplace it starts an all out virtual brawl, I kid you not. I think once and for all we would all like some answers. Thank you.
My favorite has to be AU COEUR DU DESERT by TAUER PERFUMES. A freaking masterpiece.
I like Prada's Amber Intense. It makes me feel classy & sophisticated each time I wear it. It has great longevity and its sillage is decent. The fragrance smells warm, spicy, & dark yet smooth. Honestly, I think Prada's Amber Intense is a designer fragrance with the qualities of a niche fragrance in my opinion.
You are forgetting the Grand Daddy masterpiece - (1978) Lagerfeld!
Talking about the longevity of the Noir extreme perfume, what carbon perfume were you talking about? The one to enhance the longevity?
Maison Francis kurkdjian Grand Soir, I wore this today paired it with my wet shaving soap/splash and face balm called merchant of tobacco from wholly kaw. The pairing is absolutely beautiful. It's one of my favorite amber scents and last until you shower again. Ex nihilo amber sky might be the best amber I have ever smelled though, it's nuclear and last 24 hours easy. If you haven't tried ex nihilo amber sky, try it!
For "darker fragrance", I prefer Layton exclusif. When worn in the autumn wind, it makes me feel like a chocolaty-dark graveyard. And I like it.
A Lot of ppl prefer just normal Layton, but I'm with you 100%. Layton Exclusif slaps.
You know what might be fun since he is always trying to analyze notes and whats in fragrances etc.. someone give him a sample of amber absolute and then see what he thinks since the perfumer themselves released the exact dosages to make it what was it 2 years ago now? That might be kinda fun.
Try Ambre Noir from Yves Rocher, a cheap and good ambre fragrance
Another beautiful amber fragrance is Xerjoff‘s 40 Knots, I highly recommend you give it a try, apparently it smells similar to Ambre Nuit, but that I can’t judge as I haven’t smelled that yet… Other than that, great video as always!
40 knots does smell similar to amber nuit! but amber nuit has a distinct rose note which I don’t love. Love me some 40 knots.
Yes, there is a similarity, except AN has a beautiful rose but seems to dry down synthetic to my nose. 40 Knots is incredibly blended, great for fall
I can’t imagine a stronger version of Black Orchid. I recently smelled it for the first time and I’m still trying to decide what I think of it. I haven’t even sprayed it on my skin yet. I did one spray on a strip and was still trying to get the smell out of my house 8 hours later. There are aspects of it that I truly adore but I’m afraid it will result in headaches. I tried Velvet Orchid first and got a boomer.
I was never one to shy away from a stronger fragrance, and amber/oriental/warm/spicy fragrances with hints of sweetness have always been my favorites. I wore the original Dior Poison in elementary and high school (late 80s/early 90s) but I’ve spent almost 2 decades working as a 911 dispatcher and have grown accustomed to skin scents that won’t bother others. This is way out of my wheelhouse… at the moment.
I’m trying to break out of this habit when the occasion is right but I’m having such a hard time with it. I’ve stuck with D&G The One since it’s release even though the performance annoys me to no end. I love the smell and it’s great in an office environment.
I love the Black Orchid DNA. L❤VE IT! If only it could be softer. If they made a Diet Black Orchid. Yeah. I could work with that! How it is now (2023) It’s sooooooo strong, I couldn’t imagine it stronger.
You could wear this in a cigar bar where the ventilation system is broke and people would still be able to smell you through the smoke
Aron please take a look on gisada ambassador...good fragrance and worth your attention
Be interesting to see you review either African leather or Russian leather by Memo paris. I've smelt African leather but haven't smelt Russian leather.
Tl/dr: they all are dark, elegant, sweet, and he absolutely love it" 👌🏻
Please, review Bvlgari Tygar
I just ordered hard candy Elixir today for my boyfriend from max aroma ! Can you explain the spray carbon then 4 sprays on top?
Aaron,
Could you please to YSL Jazz
Or
Bulgari Pour Homme .
I would recommend Daniel Jossier - Ambre Tabac
Love that one. Smells like Oajan but better, and also like 1 million prive but on steroids, and better lol.
Still waiting for that Armani Code Parfum review, rather impatiently :P
Got A99 code for TF Black Orchid. I didn't like it as I was so new to dark fragrance back then. Still haven't used it. Given to me by an Italian watch designer 3 years ago.
❤️lets go
Hay Aron I have two 30 ml bottles one off them is 6 years old and quite potent if that helps mate
I've always known it to be luxury perfume.
its only when I joined this fragrance community 2 years ago that I noticed that people call it "niche". 🤷🏾♂️
Agreed 100% . Ambre sultan; ambre nuit; noir extreme; ombre leather ( i think that I prefer the edp), black afgano. The
Bad boy is good too but forgettable in my opinion.
I haven't tried the rest yet.
Grand soir , Mercedes club and Prada amber intense should be on the list!!
What do you mean about Bad boy being fotgettable?
I separated my fragrances last week into warm and cool weather fragrances and I noticed how many cool weather ones I have, I personally love this time of year, serge Lutens I have, love it but l’occitane Eux de baux is the most divine vanilla, it is an edt but I just don’t care about the performance it’s beautiful. Top of my collection is Amouage overture man 😮
I seasonally separate my frags as well. If I was asked which type I prefer I’d answer Fresh Spring/ Summer Fragrances however I’ve so many more Fall/Winter fragrances including samples.
Hey Aaron, would love to see you review Montale Black Vanilla- almost ready to blind but would love to see an expert breakdown the fragrance before I purchase
I just tried it. Don't blind buy it!
Chergui❤️❤️❤️
Can you do a top 10 iris perfumes?
Gris Charnel is a delicious iris, cardamom, black tea, fig, vetiver, tonka, and sandalwood perfume. If you like iris I recommend trying it.
L'Attesa by Masque Milano is also an iris masterpiece👌
Dior Homme Intense 💜
what happened to ambre extreme from your line Aaron?
Niche fragrances are from fragrance houses who started as fragrances. Designer fragrances are from company's that their fragrances are secondary to what they are known for. Guerlain is technically a Niche but the house is so large and with a decent low cost selection that they can feel designer. Tom ford is designer but his private line is so exclusive and expensive that it feels niche. Same thing to be said for most of the private lines from the major designer houses. Gucci, givenchy, louis Vuitton. The King and queen of the designers that can feel niche is Chanel and Dior because of their deep roots in the fragrance industry.
Surprised you liked the Black Afgano by Nasamatto, but not the Bad Boy Le Parfum by CH, since they both contain the cannabis note
please review Xerjoff 400 😻
I love amber...
You can buy the new Noir Extreme Parfum which lasts much more than the original
DS Durga pls amber kisso/Teutonic
For me Mercedes Benz Club black is best amber fragrance.
A bit sad,but has to be on the list L'ARTISAN PARFUMEREUR- L'EAU D'AMBRE EXTRÊME 😢 Very nice amber smell👍👍
