Aaron, I love the way you review fragrances. I say it every time I watch your videos. It is an education watching your fragrance videos. I can not thank you enough for what you do. You have no peers when it comes to fragrance reviews.
I haven't had time to watch many reviews over the past few years, so Aaron has been all I've watched for a while now. I love the art/science, no one else does it, he's terrific and very likable, def has his own niche.
I really appreciate you going back and having another look at this, I love it, but also I didn’t fall in love at first sniff. Absolutely we do evolve and nothing is sent in stone certainly when I smell things, my opinion can change dramatically upon 2nd sniff or passage of time. Love to hear you thoughts on Amouage Overture Man, Journey Man, and Meander! Thanks Aaron 😊
So glad to hear someone I respect loving my all time favorite scent almost as much as me! IMHO Amouage has some of the best fragrances on the market for a niche house. While Reflection Man is head and shoulders the best to me, I also really love Jubilation 25. Due to its high price I sadly can't afford to buy many of them, which is sad because I wish they would sell sample kits that didn't cost you about $100. Anyhow thank you very much sir and keep up the amazing job. Also can I say you might have one of the most pleasant voices on the internet. Hearing you talk just puts me in a better mood.
Thank you for educating us all, as a fragrance developer, as a wonderful person with life experience. Please don't change your format, I really enjoy it. It's not "fresh" hate that term, its professional and right to the point. Enough said, thank you 👍
Thank you for another lovely review, Aaron. Your time and passion is always appreciated. I got to wake up late for once in my life and enjoy a nice meal with some coffee while listening to your calming voice review a fragrance I adore. It's the simple things in life that make me the happiest!
Fantastic video, Aaron. It's so nice to hear about Reflection Man again. It's been my favourite fragrance for years now. It's just gorgeous. Thank you!
Just ordered a travel spray of this the other day and am waiting on it to arrive. Happy to hear that you enjoy it as well, I'm really looking forward to trying it.
Great review Aaron . I have this fragrance . I agree it’s the most westernised and mass appealing from this house . It’s my favourite house overall though some of their work is hard to appreciate .
Para mi siendo un principiante en el mundo fantástico de los aromas , es un placer tener un maestro que indica , señala con verdadero conocimiento, sin ataduras económicas de por medio. He tomado tu lista inicial de los 10 mejores y ya la tengo porque en realidad son 100% excelentes. Gracias y el universo te guíe siempre .
Awesome review! Actually this was my first niche fragrance. The first time I smelled something has changed in my mind. Didn’t know that fragrance could be also and art form, and Reflecion Man is exactly that. Much love from Brazil 🇧🇷
Thanks for another excellent review! I was hoping to hear your thoughts on the comparisons to the original LeMale… I definitely think there’s a parallel and would love to hear your opinion.
I love Amouage, really delved into this house more so lately, Reflection Man is fantastic, trouble is once I smell it I want to wear it all the time like a signature fragrance but at the price (well worth it) I have to treat it as a special occasion fragrance instead 🤣. I think my favourite fragrance from Amouage would have to be Myths Man just so unique please review Myths if you get the chance, if not any other Amouage would do! (I've seen all your other Amouage reviews). Amouage is in my top 3 fragrance houses.
I don't like floral smelling scents at all, but I got a sample set from amouage and this massively surprised me despite smelling extremely floral, it smells amazing. I ended up buying boundless though, I'd love to hear your review on that, amazing fragrance, and perfect for autumn!
Amouage has a terrific Discovery kit of samples. It is a bit more expensive than when I first got it a few years ago though (but then again what isn’t?) Reflection Man is easy to like, clean, a little soapy, and to me smells like JPG Le Male with an extra herbal component. I love Le Male :) Amouage is a great house and Bracken Man is by far my favorite! I also use Epic Man.
I never bothered trying this, since the descriptions always described a genre I'm not interested in (always heard it was more of a freshie). But this description was unique and really pretty amazing, so much so, I'm now very curious even tho I know it prolly won't be my jam...still want to sniff it. Jubby is terrific...a little over-hyped, but still terrific. Cheers Aaron, hope you're well!
Oh bro you're killing me this time! Reflection 45 is all the business right now... Wish you'd review that! 😭 Great review as always though! 😜 Still hoping you review Overture, too!
reflection man is stunning! Amouage are Top of their game. amazing. I LOVE sleepdebt in your videos... and it's just at the right level to enhance the fact that we listening to you review... creates a beauteous vibe. BRILLIANT! 💥🚀😃
Love your reviews... For whatever reason... I'm not a big fan of reflection and I love the house... very high quality... I may have to revisit this as my tastes have changed a lot from 3 years ago so maybe I wont pick up the florals like I did back then as much. I got super clean/white florally type when I tested it.
When i first was introduced to this i thought it was very nice. Only got that response because I'd moments before tried the Reflections 45 for man extrait edp. Which absolutely blew my mind. The reflection man after that smelled diluted by comparison but very nice. The 45 i do not possess the appropriate levels of superlatives in my vocabulary to do it justice. Apart from the fact i kept smelling myself for rest if the day from first spray.
I just received my 5mL testers of Reflections Man and Jubilation XXV. Sprayed on each arm…. Have spent the better part of the day trying to wrap my head around this house. I also put a bit of Interlude Black Iris on the back of my hand. Nothing is jumping out at me like my Tom Ford fragrances and claiming my heart.
It's a beautiful crisp airy ozonic bright woody white floral with great performance. If sprayed on clothes it's beast mode. This exceptional combo of features makes it a wonderful all year rounder. It's also a massive compliment getter. I've been wearing it on different occasions in different places and I got compliments from people every single time. This never happened with my other perfumes.
Has become my signature scent over the last two years. A masterpiece. What other fragrances would you consider belong in the Hall of fame? Given the quality of your reviews that’s an incredible accolade to achieve.
You really should try Boundless aswell if you got it in the sample box. Newer release from the house, imo also more mass appealing and "easier", but more dark than Reflection Man. Not the greatest sillage perhaps, but the scent is great! Aaron, thank you for your great review, as always! 🙏
I was really interested in getting this fragrance, but it was just pricey enough that I didn't want to blind buy it. Where I live there is really nowhere I can go to try it out and I am leary of getting samples because you never know how the sprayers are on them and if they are crap then I feel like you don't get the real experience you would get off an actual bottle... so I was just kinda sitting on my hands about it. But having seen your review I think I'm actually going to pick this one up. I really respect your opinion and taste when it comes to fragrances so if it gets a perfect 10 off of you that's good enough for me. I bought toy boy cuz of the review you gave it and gotta say you didn't let me down I really enjoy it.
Always thought I wasn't a big fan of floral scents. "Reflection" taught me otherwise. When those floral notes start to open up, well that is just a moment of sheer beauty!
I remember watching that review with you and Chris, and you said this fragrance smells like money. I knew I had to get it then. Putting fragrance on paper never made sense to me because people don't wear paper. Always put fragrance on skin and clothes.
I really loved this review. When I get excited, and I'm alone, I do something called "stimming" where I kind of rapidly move my hands around - it's embarrassing. Moving along, I noticed myself doing that while watching this. Reflection is one of my favorite fragrances and I think your descriptions put words to the thoughts and feelings it's given to me. Thank you, Aaron. That's a really special connection, and you're truly a master of your craft.
Wow! The first time I've seen you give a 10 rating. Never smelled Reflection Man or anything else from Amouage. I've always dismissed Reflection Man because it's compared to The Original Le Male by JPG. I wasn't impressed by that, but now I'll try to get my nose on this one since you gave it a 10. That says a lot to me. Thanks for sharing your honest opinion as always.
Great. In this fragrance the most important notes are rosemary and synthetic aromas to make it fresher and more airy, jasmine very important, and very very important the bitter orange materials, from green bitter petitgrain to floreal bitter neroli, that with high cashmeran dose, powdery musks, orris root, contrasted by drywoods, create a magnificent unique blend. Clearly Reflection can't be Reflection without that powdery white floral elements to give the entire body of fragrance.
Definitely one of the best fragrances out there! Even though it’s expensive it’s worth every penny! I will always have a bottle of it in my collection.
Just opened up so.r Dior Homme parfum. After smelling your work it might be right up your alley or atleast worth a review. The drydown is nutzo in my humble unlearned opinion.
The opening of this is beautiful with a tea-like almost green bubblegum vibe. Not sure what's going on with the base they are using for this. As it sits I start taking points off. By drydown it isn't welcome anymore. My sample will be enough.
I like this scent but it also reminds me of Le Malle by JPG a lot which just bugs the crap out of me. But Reflection man isn’t quite as sweet and smells more opulent and also the longevity is better…
Aaron, I love the way you review fragrances. I say it every time I watch your videos. It is an education watching your fragrance videos. I can not thank you enough for what you do. You have no peers when it comes to fragrance reviews.

One of the greatest fragrances ever released. Truly love Amouage, such high quality scents
I'm wearing today and I love watching your reviews as I wear stuff. Thanks Aaron really admire your commentary
Thanks for the review! and the ingredients/notes breakdown, it's always very insightful.
I really appreciate you going back and having another look at this, I love it, but also I didn’t fall in love at first sniff. Absolutely we do evolve and nothing is sent in stone certainly when I smell things, my opinion can change dramatically upon 2nd sniff or passage of time.

Glad to hear that!
I agree. This one is really good. Love it. We appreciate you coming back to do the full reviews Aaron. Thank you.

An absolutely beautiful scent and well put together.

That sounds like a great day actually.
One of my all time faves. A true classic.
The longevity needs to be addressed.
@@dishenharilal4437how long does it last for
@@dishenharilal4437exactly, I own the vintage non magnetic cap and modern one and they turn skins scents after 2 hours just like jubilation xxv
One of my favorites from the house alongside with jubilation xxv
Your a master of your craft bro...I admire your work..keep on doing the good work
Fantastic video, Aaron. It's so nice to hear about Reflection Man again. It's been my favourite fragrance for years now. It's just gorgeous. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing!
Love this stuff Aaron. Thanks again for your sincere presentation and erudite knowledge of fragrance.
My pleasure!
Much love bro...thanks for sharing your insight!!!

What a brilliant video, with an incredible fragrance. You nailed this Aaron!
Thank you kindly!
Just ordered a travel spray of this the other day and am waiting on it to arrive. Happy to hear that you enjoy it as well, I'm really looking forward to trying it.
Hope you enjoy it!
Bought this cologne about a year ago. Definitely one of my top 3’s. It smells very manly & elegant at the same time. Definitely worth every penny.
Looks like this will be my next purchase in February 2023. I am gathering Spring Summer Fragrances. Great review.
Great review Aaron . I have this fragrance . I agree it’s the most westernised and mass appealing from this house . It’s my favourite house overall though some of their work is hard to appreciate .
Totally agree
My 2 favourite houses are Amouage and ATH🦄! Both have amazing performance and smell luxurious.

Wonderful review. I picked up a bottle and cannot stop smelling it.
Thanks for another excellent review! I was hoping to hear your thoughts on the comparisons to the original LeMale… I definitely think there’s a parallel and would love to hear your opinion.
Just sprayed this on to remind me how good it is, have a sample of the extrait version but prefer the original.
They are quite weather dependent. The original works best in the day but the extrait is incredible at night in dry weather. Such an excellent perfume.
Wore Reflection Man for the first time this week, at a birthday.
Women loved it, but one man had to open a window. 😎
Classic
My lil baby, one of the greatest fragrances I know. Smells divine, VERY elegant. Absolutely mass appealing.
Evening Aaron great content as always……….❤
Hey, thanks!

Hi Aaron!.. i cant wait to see you reviewing Fève Delicieuse by Dior
Love this fragrance for spring!
Me too!
Glad you are trying to do some scents justice and re review them!
Sounds promising. I'm really excited cus I ordered a sample today (together with Epic man) and about 25 others 😎
I don't like floral smelling scents at all, but I got a sample set from amouage and this massively surprised me despite smelling extremely floral, it smells amazing. I ended up buying boundless though, I'd love to hear your review on that, amazing fragrance, and perfect for autumn!
Thanks for sharing!
How would you say Boundless is? I’m between getting that or Reflection too.
@@ArcadianWaheeladifferent to anything else you'll smell, sweet creamy, a ginger type spice to it aswell. Amazing scent!
High score on this one! Woow! The hype it's really worth it Aaron?hugs!
Amouage has a terrific Discovery kit of samples. It is a bit more expensive than when I first got it a few years ago though (but then again what isn’t?)
Reflection Man is easy to like, clean, a little soapy, and to me smells like JPG Le Male with an extra herbal component. I love Le Male :)

Just ordered a bottle. Sampled this and it’s freaking amazing.
I'm eagerly awaitng a Lyric Man review :)
Great work as always . 10/10
your videos are inspirational, I love you bro ❤️🤝
Great video love this fragrance & the fact you still love it after reviewing it once & sampling it on Chris’s Chanel
Glad you enjoy it!

I’d love to hear you do Amouage Jubilation, that’s been on my potential purchase list for a couple of years.
I'll check it out!

Thank You
I appreciate that!
Love this review. This is exactly how I felt about reflection!

I trust your reviews enough for me to blind buy. None of the buys I have bought from watching your review has been disappointing. Thank you.
Has become my signature scent over the last two years. A masterpiece. What other fragrances would you consider belong in the Hall of fame?
Given the quality of your reviews that’s an incredible accolade to achieve.
Perfumes de Marly house is great too.. check out thier samples if you can get your hands on 'em 😊
My personal favourites are Journey Man and Overture Man, would love to hear your thoughts on them
You really should try Boundless aswell if you got it in the sample box. Newer release from the house, imo also more mass appealing and "easier", but more dark than Reflection Man. Not the greatest sillage perhaps, but the scent is great!
Aaron, thank you for your great review, as always! 🙏
I'll check it out!
If got a chance, try the newly released Royal Tobacco(Opus 14). That one is unlike anything I have smelt and would love to hear your thoughts about it
Thanks Aaron.

Here for the Aaron vibes!
Always thought I wasn't a big fan of floral scents. "Reflection" taught me otherwise. When those floral notes start to open up, well that is just a moment of sheer beauty!
I was expecting to dislike Reflection Man for those reasons, but it is a beautiful scent.
I would like to see you reviewing Enclave from amouage! 🙌
Told you the last time but about the violet feel - you need to try Portrayal Man :D
I love this one. Shame doesn't last as long on me. So saving for the 45% version..... lol
I remember watching that review with you and Chris, and you said this fragrance smells like money. I knew I had to get it then. Putting fragrance on paper never made sense to me because people don't wear paper. Always put fragrance on skin and clothes.

Could you do a review on dolce and Gabbana the one mysterious night please 🙏
My friend went to Oman, Oman Mall specifically! I had to make him check the booth and I asked him to buy this one!
ty so much Aaron
this is my scent!
I really appreciate your opinion
Bought this because of this review. First whiff…wasn’t impressed. Sprayed it on…wow! Became another creature on skin. It’s incredible.
It’s a dope cologne one of my favs
Wow! The first time I've seen you give a 10 rating. Never smelled Reflection Man or anything else from Amouage.

I always say, Reflection Man is the epitome of using floral notes in a men's fragrance. To me, it becomes more attractive the more it dries down.
Great. In this fragrance the most important notes are rosemary and synthetic aromas to make it fresher and more airy, jasmine very important, and very very important the bitter orange materials, from green bitter petitgrain to floreal bitter neroli, that with high cashmeran dose, powdery musks, orris root, contrasted by drywoods, create a magnificent unique blend. Clearly Reflection can't be Reflection without that powdery white floral elements to give the entire body of fragrance.
You mentioned Hall of Fame, I'd love a Hall of Fame video from you Aaron 😊
First 10 I've ever seen you give, so I better get saving 🤣
I ordered this fragrance and looking forward to experiencing it!
I just received it.
Which formulation did u get and how u liking it?
How is it? You like it?
It’s SO good!! 🔥
Wore this through the summer - blinding stuff
I love your review can u do one Vanille havane les indemodables
Can you please do Guerlain Santal royal and D&G the one Royal night ? Would be very happy to have your opinion :)
Definitely one of the best fragrances out there! Even though it’s expensive it’s worth every penny! I will always have a bottle of it in my collection.
Thanks for sharing!
Some Amoage started popping up at discounters for 175 bucks a bottle or so, still not cheap but at least discounted.
@@MoahGentle where bruh!!!!
@@josephpa05Here in Norway it’s often at 180 usd
Would love to see an Armani Code Parfum review!
Coming soon!
Pretty decent one! I much prefer the Reflection Man 45, which is more edgy and not so buttery :)
45 is the bomb
Excellent!! WOOOOOOOO
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful fragrance. I don't get great performance though. Could it just be my skin chemistry?
Hope you'll redo Dior Ambre Nuit review, cheers!
Coming soon!
Just opened up so.r Dior Homme parfum. After smelling your work it might be right up your alley or atleast worth a review. The drydown is nutzo in my humble unlearned opinion.
My most trusted reviewer and my favourite perfume. I clicked so hard I pulled a neck muscle.
Wow, hope your neck recovers
Please review Reflection 45!!
Do you know from what year exactly your sample is, there are differences, you can also tell by the color :)
The opening of this is beautiful with a tea-like almost green bubblegum vibe. Not sure what's going on with the base they are using for this. As it sits I start taking points off. By drydown it isn't welcome anymore. My sample will be enough.
I like this scent but it also reminds me of Le Malle by JPG a lot which just bugs the crap out of me. But Reflection man isn’t quite as sweet and smells more opulent and also the longevity is better…
