Hey friends, today I'm joined by Richard Herpin - the owner and perfumer of Precious Liquid fragrances. He also is the creator of Tom Ford's Oud Wood among many other fragrances. Today he's tackling Armaf Club de Nuit Intense Man and Creed Aventus and comparing the two. Thanks for watching!

So nice to hear actual insight from someone with the knowledge he has. For him to explain WHY Aventus smells and performs different (removal/regulation of Lyral and Birch etc) rather than just saying “it doesn’t last as long” was great. Also, it would be interesting to know the rough actual cost of the formula per bottle of something like Aventus. I know he says it’s a ‘very expensive formula’, but how many dollars does that actually translate to per bottle? $2? $5? $10+? I know he’s working in the industry so he won’t want to say anything that may hurt business, but id love to hear some proper behind the scenes stuff that nobody else talks about…

Fragrances have a huge profit margin, its not very expensive to make.

@LaughingMan_ 6 ай бұрын

You actually can't calculate it solely on the costs of the raw materials alone. You also have, sourcing, marketing, distribution costs, certificates, labs. The formulation itself will costs quite some money as the perfumer wants a cut for his work too. So, even if you know about material costs, you also have to ask for everything else too to get the full picture. But none of the less, margins are still extremely high when you see for how much this stuff gets sold. Margins are in the percentage range of a few thousands.

Hey Ash, this is such an amazing and informative video. I didn’t know that they’ve found a method to extract pineapple oil, that’s nuts! And I’m quite surprised how costly pink pepper oil is, can’t imagine what it’s like to work with such an ingredient when messing up. I also agree with Mr Herpin’s opinion on Americans not really liking citrus, Light Blue Forever is a perfect example. As for the Sauvage part, I believe it’s not just Sauvage that’s taking over the scene, Dior fragrances are topping a lot of lists. The ending is an eye opener, the fact that CDNIM can nearly stand toe to toe against Aventus from a perfumer’s perspective, is impressive. For Mr Herpin to give CDNIM such high praise in the quality department is extraordinary in its own right. Definitely need more content like this if you ever get time for it, thanks Ash!!!

Her initial reaction was something like is this a trick they smell the same, then once I told her one was a clone of the other and to pick which one she liked more she ended up picking Club de nuit.

Totally agree aventus is more classier. Like the direction we are going. Really interested in la nuit de l'homme bleu electrique vs the original. Why do so many people like the original eventhough it's not that strong. And why do parfums de marly fragrances seem to perform longer. Is it the build structure?

This is a nice video, BUT... There is still much to be asked. He said Bergamos was expensive, but he also said Ambroxan was expensive. And that CDNIM had to put that 10% of "expensive" ambroxan in order to replicate that Aventus note. But as we all know, CDNIM is cheap. So where is the line here? What is actually expensive, and how much is the profit margin what we are talking about. For example (hypothetically): sinthetic bercamont is 10c per gram, but real bergamont is 1$ per gram, so it's technically 10 times more expensive. So in the formula, you put 2g of bergamont, which is $2, and now the fragrance is considered "expensive"? Could we even say that this practice of "expensive" oils is like the practice of how fragrances can say they contain real Oud when in reality they have like 0.0000001% real Oud inside but since it's technically there the bottom can say: "Contains real Oud". You know what I mean?
