Amouage Reflection 45 is my most complimented cologne. In one evening I received more compliments than I have for any other fragrance. I asked Perfumer Aaron Terence Hughes to smell it and tell me why people love it so much!

I would love to see a tables turned type of video. Where Aaron brings his favorite fragrances and has Chris smell them and decide whether he likes them and what he likes about them.

I agree, they have great chemistry. I also like the ideas that Chris brings to videos, as well as the questions he asks. Aaron would probably keep it pretty linear (as he does in his own videos) which I love, but Chris just brings that x factor and outside pedestrian perspective.
