Thanks for this video. I don’t associate FM with summer. You’ve inspired me to take a deeper dive.

These house grouped vids are great! The Bigarades are on my list. Need to figure out which. Not too late for this summer.

Great overview! My take on Indelible is that it’s a traditional cologne seen through a scrim, in soft focus and flattering lighting. The musk really makes it fuzzy. Also, definitely not indelible on my skin! Four hours tops. Tho I do like it at the end of the day.

Perfect analogy, cologne through a scrim. It delivers on the "indelible" part for me, I was just thinking when I woke up this morning "I still smell so good!" But I know perception of these musks can vary wildly. I see that some people are finding Acne Studios nuclear and abrasive but I find its projection and longevity kind of soft and polite.

There is an ambery note in Bigarade Concentree I noticed, before ever reading the note pyramid. I would smell it side by side directly with the Atelier Cologne, you should see the sweetness stick out then. The Bigarade Cologne is greener and lacks that ambery note - they are different formulations. Even if you wanted to pass from one concentration to another retaining the same scent, you'd have to alter the proportions in the formulation.

Yes I know this about concentration changes, but when I smelled Bigarade at the store I was surprised how similar it was to the Concentree. More of a difference in density than difference of smell to me.

Excellent coverage of an excellent house. I enjoy the way FM deals with all things citrus. The only one I don't own is Sale Gosse. That is the only scent that I have always been a tad on the fence. When you mix Bigaraade conc with all of the ancillary products you can get a strong 6-7 hours in an office setting. I usually reapply anyway at hour 5. Stay Cool! Cheers! 🎉🎉🎉😊

Great overview! wish they'd done more fresh citrus scents and possibly explored new territory. They seem to have abandoned anything aromatic fresh in recent years. Maybe Uncut Gem to some extent but not much else.
