Ok this just went from "Mummy, I got a gold star from Miss Johnson today for reading out the whole Alphabet in front of the whole class" to "I recently wrote a research paper during my 3rd PHD Degree which is getting published in the next Academic Journal of which I'm being nominated for a Nobel Prize" real quick.

In a world of 'Top tens', comes in George with a 'Let me explain'. Good idea.

I think this is is one of the best video the frag community ever had. Period.

That was fun - you've carved out your niche in fragcomm. The educational stuff is what brought me to this channel in the first place. Thanks, King George.

Please do more of these for other niche fragrances, your on to something with this style of video. I've never seen this before and am completely captivated 😄

Some bonus info on Aventus. Perfumer is Jean-Christoph Herault. Aventus uses a very unique captive musk. The pineapple note is inspired by years of experimentation done by Herault’s guru, the legendary perfumer Pierre Bourdon. Thank you very much George for this wonderful video. Yes we want more of this. I’m sick and tired of top 10s. I’m starting to unsubscribe from most of the fragrance channels I used to follow. You are a breath of fresh Mellisime Imperial.

Very nice initiative! I say: Go! There's an unlimited amount of frags you could explain. Thumbs up!

This is incredible, and honestly makes me appreciate Aaron’s review approach so much more. Because to mix the pro stuff into his ability to describe to (around a) novice level is incredible.

*Dallas watches whole video* “… So it was a top 5 video?”

I would absolutely love to see this become a series. While there is really no reason to go past the normal level, I enjoyed those upper two levels. I especially loved like taking out this and putting in this and you could potentially come up with this. I really thought that was cool.

After your pro description I was thinking, “Dang! Does Aventus treat Covid?”

Helpful, thanks!

ATH after hearing the Pro description of Aventus: That boy spittin 🔥

This is why you're my favorite crazy frag man. I loved this. More like this please!

Excellent video, George. You should do a video on brands with and not worth the money.

Absolutely loved this format, so informative 👏 When I was younger I used to watch 'How It's Made' so not surprised that I am fascinated by the conplex work that goes into making an amazing fragrance!

We are so happy to have you back! I would like to see this breakdown for creed Royal oud as well

I'm definitely in the average category borderlining on advanced since I've been reading a lot on perfume history and blending in the past year but man, this was a fantastic ride. Thank you for this enlightening video!

What i took away from this: Aaron Terrance Hughes is like a 4.5 in his videos

Well mate, you just created one of the most interesting review of a fragrance ever. And the advanced and pro descriptions being the parts making this video stand out. And inadvertently created a style of video you should do once per month on a popular fragrance.

As a chemist, I appreciate the pro explanation 👌

Oh man I loved the last part, it was really interesting knowing that you had this knowledge around this fragrance. As I tried to make some fregrances as a hobbyist I really appreciated this.

This was really fun

Amazing video, you made us feel we were chemists for a moment. Fantastic content as always, more please

The Pro part of the iceberg is definitely Aaron Terrance Hughes territory...great video

As a healthcare scientist, I loved this video. The best dissection of creed aventus. Well done George!

Apprentice just lowkey flexed 💪 on all us. I feel a mixture of 4 drops of shame from my lack of knowledge, 6 drops of excitement from the wealth of information, 7 drops of gratitude for the video and 5 drops of pineapple. Love ur vids bro ☺️👌

This was some big brain shit! Absolutely loved it. This fragrance educational stuff is a big part of why I love the channel. I would love to see this type of concept but describing the subtle differences between the 3 Bleu de Chanel flankers. Glad you are back full time. Cheers!

Bra! Did not expect this but i enjoyed this. Lookung forward for more

100% more of this please!! As an analytical chemist, I genuinely enjoyed the more technical breakdown of the fragrance

Absolut fantastic hands down love this vid

Thanks Babbs! I mean George. 😄 How silly of me. Shout out to Babbs for giving us a peek into the formula. Definitely agree with the ambrox substitution as well as combining vetivol with vertofix. No question about the DHM too. Herault was a distant disciple of Bourdon after all. My guess is that they skipped out on the labdanum and indoles in the modern Aventus. Hyde-y accords in the base don't sell well to bros. 😆

I love recieving notification from youtube saying a new video from you is out, three videos in almost three days? We are so lucky!

SERIES! SERIES! SERIES!

GREAT one, George!! I’d love to see ATH go through the pro version with you! Great job; enjoyed this one- and I would LOVE to see more of these 5 levels from you!

Seriously impressed! I would love if you did a series of educational videos about essential oils and aromachemicals!

as a chemist I would very much appreciate the Pro explanations in every video :)

Now that I've watched this video, I'd say I probably explain Aventus to people at a 3 and I understand at level 4. Fun aside, I cheer a little everytime I see Alberto Morillas mentioned. At level 5 you started speaking another language and I spaced out and started thinking about my childhood summers and had an idea for a dialogue exchange in the novel I'm currently writing. You said "Eternity" and I said out loud, "What?" 5 stars, A+ video.

damn that was a wonderful progression on explaining a fragrance

I've been watching fragrance videos for years and that video will get stuck in my mind for a long time, I don't remember when was the last time I've watched something that's so different and educational but still so interesting to watch, thank you for that.

Your words lost me at novice but your voice keeps my heart and body forever x

Hello George, this is by far the most precise explanation given of what Aventus really smells like. In the mid it smells like Blackcurrant icecream to my nose.. lol.. BTW I personally love the OAKMOSS & Ambergris mix in the drydown. :)

When you went into advanced territory, that's when I started vibing with the video so I know that's where I'm at. Definitely not in the pro area, but I like the historical stuff, the influential aspects, and then some of the pro stuff like the molecular level stuff is very interesting to me but I mainly have speculative knowledge on that. Really good video though, I think this type of video has been done before but not in a way that's resonated with me as much as this one did where I feel like this actually is representative of the different levels of fragrance enthusiasm.

One of your best.

Top shelf video. You may become the Fragrance Professor sooner than later. 😉👍

I like this style of video. There is something for everyone at any level.

Pure Gold👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. As mind numbing as the pro explanations was, I truly enjoyed it 👌🏾

I love this style of video!!

Brilliant video buddy! I was fine until Pro kicked in! ha ha - i love the concept of the video and have learnt a lot - thank you

Very interesting. Please make a series of videos, using this approach.

Great video and I enjoyed it and Creed Aventus is a 10 out of 10 in my opinion and have a blessed night

Do more. This is different, and fun.

This was an absolutely amazing video! Thank you so much. Love the Advanced and Pro segments. You my friend are AMAZING!

Bro just told us the whole aventus formula. Was not expecting that

This is a great idea for a video series! Looking forward to more of these 🙂

Loved the video, both the idea and the content.. Would love the same breakdown of Acqua Di Gio EDT.

Gotta connect with you. Literally the king of perfumes

This was so good I just started playing around with trying to make my own frags so this is some good info to have

This is brilliant!

I like Aventus. I have Aventus, but I haven't worn it since the Summer time. Smoky, pineapple is a good simple description. Just get a sample and smell it. Words can't describe it.

Interesting! ...Thank you! Keep it up!

i do like the "advanced" approach, It makes anyone who is in fragrances for a while confident what to expect from fragrance he never smelled before

Super well said

I agree with all the comments, this is a banging idea & a great niche for you. Loved it through & through. Add a couple of swearing at Chris bits in here & it’s pure gold

Hi, George! Good to see you back. I greatly enjoyed seeing a fragrance broken down like this. Please continue this trend.

George, thank you for taking the time to do this! What an interesting breakdown of Creed Aventus composition at all the relevant levels.

This is a very interesting video concept! One of the most informational fragrance video I have watched, great work friend.

More like this please! This was really fun to watch and learn a few things I didn't know I wanted to know.. Glad your coming back.

Wow I am very impressed! Incredible knowledge. Thank you 🙏🏼

Definitely enjoyed this including the pro level. Very interesting and informative. More please.

Watched this several times over the last month. Great video! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge.

This was actually amazing. Too bad the algorithm doesn't like these kinds of videos.

This is absolutely intriguing, I love this kind of depth into the fragrance world. Thank you George!

George. Mate. You’ve outdone yourself again. Wow. Thank you 🙏🏻

What a great video of how to explain the smell of Aventus, your discriptions are so on point.

Hell ya. Missed your content

I love this kind of content! More please. Aventus is one of my favourite fragrances. I once got this comment on it: "It smells like a new fresh wardrobe from IKEA. Not in a bad way though." 😄Still love you, you expensive little bastard.

Bloody hell! Best Aventus review till now :)) 👍

This just set the bar. The new standard

I think this is a fantastic and refreshingly new concept for a fragrance review! Although u mentioned this one not doing well in a later video, I think it could possibly catch on as u go thru some of the more popular fragrances

I really enjoyed this. I think of perfumers as game developers. They both need to be highly technical and artistic at the same time. But the Level 5 showed me that they need to be much more technically skilled then I thought... Still sure George you don't want to try this perfume making thing? I think you are getting a great crack at this. Cheers.

Great informative video. Very well thought out. Great job, just like your short film.... 100% awesome🎉

I sincerely hope to see more videos like this. keep up the good work

I love the idea of this as a series - I love learning the technical side. You definitely need some wardrobe at least for the last phase - a lab coat in front of a white board covered with fragcom in-jokes about the scent would be hilarious.

I loved the last one! I play with making perfumes and have almost all the ingredients you listed sans the damascones. Fun stuff! Thanks for the hard work. I originally followed your work for the cinematography present in your perfume videos, essentially you were making art. That being said, we all gotta make money and I hope whatever angle you take is the one that keeps you afloat. Cheers to more videos.

Very interesting and enjoyable.

How am I so early?!

That was really cool, I have all the ingredients in my lab (apart from Ambergris) and will try to cook my own Aventus according to your recipe. In the book the ghost perfumer it says though that Jean-Christophe Hérault, the creator of Aventus, combined Ambroxan with a certain type of musk that Olivier creed used exclusively.

Pro level is absolutely essential.

I know this did not do as well as you would have wanted, but man this is great! I really do hope it does better with time, and that you make more videos akin to this

I know that this vid has only been average in terms of viewcount, but if you're up for it, seeing more of these "explained in 5 levels" would be great, perhaps for some of the extremely popular mainline fragrances (bleu de chanel, Water Joe's and suchlike). Imo this format does have great potential.

I loved the video , and yes I would love to see you explain other fragrances like that

That was fun George

More of these please.

I dont know what to say. Just when i thought i know all there is about Aventus (given a decant and all the other videos by typical youtubers) here you come with information i never thought id need nor appreciate. Great content George and i do hope the likes would catch on as this is really awesome content. It might be safe to go with another popular fragrance like BR540 or maybe oud wood to get people to notice and be more informed. Great work George

stunning, great job, of course we want moar

Highly recommended book: _The Ghost Perfumer: Creed, Lies, & the Scent of the Century_ by Gabe Oppenheim. You will never think of Creed the same way again.

Love the Pro version although doses are not 100% right. And I do not agree with your real ambergris statement. 🙂 Aventus has a lot of Ambroxan (more than Dior Sauvage EdT). But anyway - great content, love to see more of that!

Ultra Level: chemistry lecture

Great concept. Totally original. And that’s saying something.
