The projection, sillage, and longevity is incredible. Sprayed it on a shirt I wear at home. Put the shirt on 2 days later and it still smelled like Instant Crush. You hit it on the head.. an "addictive" scent.
I just got mine a few days ago and its a ‘21 release. Straight powerhouse! 2 sprays and I still caught a whiff of it the next morning headed to the gym.
I didn’t care for this when it came out but I revisited it a year or so later and it just registered differently. It’s something that puts a pep in my step and feel an in or two taller whenever I wear it! Massive projection and longevity! Excellent video! Cheers!!
i stumbled across your channel and the way you do your reviews is not only exceptional and entertaining but also competent in the way you describe the things you know. keep it up
I enjoy watching someone who knows everything about the ingredients and knows what goes into making a fragrance to understand the craft and workmanship/ or lack there of..
I LOVE Instant Crush, I find I don't go anosmic to it like I do BR. It lasts forever on clothes, it keeps wafting around the air. On the skin I find it lasts for 16+ hours, perfectly unisex, incredibly strong and projecting yet somewhat transparent, I don't find it assaults nostrils.
I just started my fragrance journey Last month. So many videos about fragrance i watched and now i am so glad i discovered Aaron' content. Imma buy 1 of his products and im eyeing out on Hard candy. Hope it will be available in department stores here in the Philippines someday :D
Without question or doubt this fragrance has garnered me the most attention and compliments out of all my fragrances. The ladies absolutely love the smell of this one me.
Such a clear and cogent review! I always watch your review first for any fragrance I'm researching, if available. Love all your reviews, past and present. Thank you for your technical knowledge and your succinctness.
Interestingly, Instant Crush is one of my most complimented and asked about frags. One of my clients went and ordered 5 (smaller) bottles to give as gifts to a group of of his friends. I guess some people REALLY like it. I don't blame them a bit cuz I love this stuff too. Thanks for another great review Aaron.
I have a small collection of Mancera; I just blind-bought Instant Crush, and am more excited to receive it, now that ATH has given a positive review - thank you!
Hi Aaron, my experience with BR 540 EDP was totally mess… but I purchased Instant Crash from Notino for 73€ and it really worth it but my FAVORITE by Far is the EXTRAIT 540!Great And Honest Review as Always…Nothing But The Best from BRUSSEL
Funny, thought Aaron would find it too sweet. Pleasant surprises all around then. Wonder what you'd think of Mancera's French Riviera. Don't think it would be up your alley but it's kinda their take on a Mediterranean fragrance. And I'm sure you could tell loads of interesting things about that whole style.
Late to the party I know, but had to purchase a bottle based upon your video. My only purchase of Mancera was Cedrat Boise, and it was between Instant Crush or Red Tobacco for bottle no.2. The opening immediately reminds you of BR540; however, once it settles into a deep vanilla scent it’s so addictive to take in. Can understand those who say it’s more unisex than BR540 - I’d agree. Looks like I have my new set up for Spring - Cedrat Boise for the day, Instant Crush for the nites out.
Same here, got it as surprise tester and was instant love so ordered a bottle and then came here for the honest review. Aaron is always on the money and so impartial.
Aaron, can you go over a more in depth note breakdown of your fragrances? I'm curious as to your inspiration for a sent profile of a fragrance and Maybe go over technical things like what a clean skin cord is.
Such a compliment-getter! I've had a woman chase me off the train to find out what I was wearing and then return to the platform to grab the next train lol
Received mine a couple of days ago and been wearing it daily since! Non stop compliments😍 the notes of instant crush just smells soo expensive and gives me so much confidence😃
Im not sure as i have not own any of the older ones but even after 6 hours people can still smell me, i guess if it is a weaker batch just add some extra sprays
This brand just gives u one of the most beautiful presentations, beautiful bottles, magnetic caps, beautiful pouches to put your Mancera fragrances into, just a brand that actually offers you something for your money...and for that these are priced accordingly, just narrowly outside of Designer realm, but still nowhere as pricey as other Niche houses like Creed or Xerjoff, or even Parfums de Marly - even though their presentation can stand proudly next to those.
I just ordered this from Amazon yesterday. I've just been getting into this hobby for the last month and a half or so. I got the Argos sample pack, and I really like that, and I tried some Creed and also PDM Greenley the other day at Nordstrom. That's the extent of my niche fragrance house experience so far. I'm leaning toward ordering Bacio Immortale, from Argos. I got the sample pack to decide which full size bottle to get first.
Instant crush literally crushes in the compliment department! It’s potent, powerful, and long lasting keeps pushing! Similar to Br540 but goes in a different route
How far into it after spraying does it stop comparing to BR540? I avoided it because I already got BR540 as well as it’s dupe Amber Oud Rogue and have zero space nor interest for another familiar smelling scent profile. If it’s just in the opening then that’s fine but if others are gonna be smelling BR540 throughout it’s wear, then it’s a waste for me personally
@@blankmandastankman personally I never smelled amber rouge I have heard the hype about it but this one I’d say is more of a jasmine & saffron bomb but the dry down is different than br540 in the dry down of instant crush you get like a vanilla saffron & jasmine floral scent, my batch pushes 16+hrs prob can go for more but I scrub it off lol
Would be interested in a video of you explaining the "mechanics/dynamics" of volatile compounds. I.e. if you want to weak performing fragrance to last longer via overspraying does it make more sense to spray the same spot multiple times or vary the area of application. Is there no difference at all?
“Formless”, interesting word, I think it captures it accurately. Also, your tattoos are the same color as your eye color, it’s pretty cool and I’m not sure if that’s intentional but it’s pretty neat 👍
I agree with u, i told my friend , this is not a BR540 replacement, this is not a dupe, this might be in "the family" as you said and Instant Crush stand on its own. I bought boss bastard, Onyx and Daddy from your sale and it has arrived a week ago, i was impressed that it does not smell like anything i have in my collection. I would like to recommend Crush on me by Unique Luxury, i have a gut feeling that you would enjoy wearing the scent. Cheers from Singapore🇸🇬.
@@danielb.1567 nop it's the real reality check some woman opinion even on the internet and you will see that even dylan blue from versace is better hahahhaja. But noobs like you know only BDC who smells like an aftershave. Buddy you pay the brand not the smell. Please don't give advices to others because you know 0 about fragrances
Baccarat Rouge disappears on me after a few hours, can’t smell it and for spending that kind of money I want better longevity. I do prefer Baccarat Rouge 540 Extrait, more complex and good staying power on me. After this review I need to smell this fragrance! Aaron you’re easy on the eyes, makes the reviews more enjoyable lol! 🤷🏼♀️😂
Aaron much love from Amsterdam 🌍 Hope you can do a reaction 2 the beautiful Xerjoff casamorati Dolce Amalfi? 💛 Wanna know what you think.. its one of my favorite parfums in summertime
Great Stuff Aaron... much support. I tried this fragrance for the first time today. I gotta say I'd love a version in which you add some amber and more naturals, but this fragrance from Mancera just may not do it for me.
This stuff has insane projection and sillage. Hands down the loudest screaming fragrance I own. You’re right Aaron you go nose blind to it quickly but you can’t forget you’re wearing it because you’ll be asked what you’re wearing constantly by people. Idk all this the first time I wore it I oversprayed and filled an entire building 😂😆
Hey Aaron, have you ever considered creating an old school slap on Aftershave? When I shave I use rubbing alcohol afterwards, but I miss the old days when my grandfather would slap on some old spice. I'd love to be able to use an up to date modern aftershave. Thoughts?
You know it’s 🔥 when ethyl maltol is WHIPPIN’ through the base.
Bro I'm DYING!!!
😂
Lol let’s go ! I love that he says that. It’s like his signature and you can tell how sincere he is . I hope he doesn’t stop saying that
Or when it’s BASED upon MASSES of hedione
Coumarin
Projection and longevity on this one is insane, and smells lovely too
What do you rather.. this or Ariana Grande Cloud?
@@LoveEvelynnArmpit pft
do you have the magnetic or the screw cap one?
@@LoveEvelynnArmpit when U want A BR540 clone i would Not get one of them cause they are different than br540
The projection, sillage, and longevity is incredible. Sprayed it on a shirt I wear at home. Put the shirt on 2 days later and it still smelled like Instant Crush. You hit it on the head.. an "addictive" scent.
@yonathan : it is a new batch or an older one? I’ve read that after being reformulated its not a powerhouse anymore. Cheers!
@@Augustus88 True...My is batch 10/2021 and last max 6hrs...Disappointed...
@@Augustus88 not sure..
I just got mine a few days ago and its a ‘21 release. Straight powerhouse! 2 sprays and I still caught a whiff of it the next morning headed to the gym.
What’s going on I just was catching on some review do u have the screw on top or the magnetic cap
i adore your expressive and explicit reviews, so knowing, factual in a storytelling feel. love it. thank you.
You do the best reviews and your voice is very soothing when I watch you it relaxes me
I didn’t care for this when it came out but I revisited it a year or so later and it just registered differently. It’s something that puts a pep in my step and feel an in or two taller whenever I wear it! Massive projection and longevity! Excellent video! Cheers!!
Your detailed reviews along with that background music makes me watch all your videos with great intrest💯.
You and Clémence are my Favourite CZcamsrs in the Fragrance Ego-system
You are both so very interesting and honest.

First time I wore this I put on three sprays. My entire apartment was FILLED with Instant Crush lol. Great review as always!
Absolutely love this fragrance, staple for the colder weather in my world.
Amazing review!
Delighted to see this review! Glad you like it! Might buy it now! Love to see your take on cedrat Boise if you haven't already

Love how u jump right into the scent . This may be a blind buy for me 🎉❤
I love it, please review Aoud Lemon mint from Mancera as well. it is one of the most unique scents that is still enjoyable that I have smelled .

Tip for the next one: Aoud Lemon Mint 😉
I have it its good 🔥
@@Krayziedad what's better? Instant crush or lemon mint?
The name of this frag just always makes me think of the Daft Punk song.
Please do Intense Cedrat Boise… that Oud adds so much more Smokey woody… 🔥🔥🔥

Nice review but please try to review some masterpieces from guerlain la collection privé. Thank you 😊
Ethyl Maltol whips to the base; Aaron's mantra!
It sounds beautiful. I wonder what you do with these fragrances do you keep them or give them away?.
I love it as well and it's super beast mode. It's almost too extreme to me.
Just ordered 🎉😅😅
