Gentlemen: I am sixty five and have been using Guerlain Vetiver for forty-five years. Over the years, I have been stopped on the streets by both men and women asking me "what scent are you wearing?" It is absolutely sublime in my estimation. So glad it was included in the list.

I am a big fan of Azzaro Pour Homme. I have a bottle my father gave me in the late 80's and I never grew out of loving it as it got older. I acquired a couple more bottles over the years and continue to go back to it for various occasions. It is my most personally nostalgic fragrance because of my dad. It isn't for everyone but it would be in my top ten classic fragrance favorites. Thanks for the video. I have many of the ten you chose. You have wonderful taste in fragrances. Great video...thanks again!

This was one of the best reviews of classic mens fragrances I've seen in a long time. All of the iconic scents were included as well as the surprise inclusion of Old Spice which my father wore in the 70's. I myself have worn Green Irish Tweed and I've worn Acqua di Parma for about ten years now. For a second I thought you would include Grey Flannel or Halston but no need really for those.

Eau Savauge EDT is my favorite of all time, perfect 10/10, great for everyday and also for going out. It is still a very modern and charismatic scent. I also like ADP Colonia for the summer. Old spice is always a great option in the winter months. Great review, I love the classics and wish they would become more popular again. I just ordered samples of Floris No. 89 and Eight and Bob, thank you for the suggestions!
@ManicMindTrick Жыл бұрын
Even through reformulations, it smells absolutely fantastic. The EDT is a masterpiece of perfumery and is both timeless and classical at the same time and works year round. I was a bit scared to try this because I really dislike the chemical mess called Dior Sauvage but this fragrance shares zero in common with that one.

Hermes Equipage is another classic scent I love. I used to wear it in the 70's & 80's and so is CD Eau Savage. Recently I felt a little nostalgic & bought myself an Aramis, which I wore for my job interviews in the 80's. I agree with you when you said these classic fragrances bring back old memories. Another fragrance I bought which I used to wear is Caron Yatagan. I also own some new fragrances like Blue De Chanel, Prada L'Homme, YSL Lanuit de L'homme, CD Sauvage, Givenchy Gentlemen, etc., but none of them brings back good old memories like the old classic ones.

I have encouraged my son to follow you, as he will be going off to college next year and needs to develop his own style. It might be great to do something for young men in that age group. Off to university and a good part of the past couple of years doing remote school, so never out of sweatpants! They really need help! Thank you so much!

Being a classic fragrance aficionado myself, I have to say that this is by far the most carefully curated list of classic scents put together by any menswear youtuber. Thanks for introducing me to the JFK-Perfume, it is not well known here in europe. Kudos for including Knize Ten (one of my 10/10 fragrances for sure) and for pronouncing it correctly as well - many americans struggle with the counterintuitive czech pronunciation. ;) About the lack of "real" leather in Knize: Leather scents couldn't be synthesized until fairly recently. Thus, in the days of old, perfumers tried to evoke more of an "idea" of leather or of an environment that would feature leather goods (think gentleman's club furniture). What Knize calls "leather" in the base notes used to be an accord dominated by birch tar, for example. Superb video, greetings from Germany!
@hespokestyle 4 жыл бұрын
Many thanks for that comment. And for your affirmation that I pronounced Knize properly. Someone else in the comments has taken issue with it and called me rather unsophisticated. Great history of the "leather" in Knize Ten as well. I really appreciate that explanation.

Knize Ten is magnificent. A smooth, show-stopper. It only seems appropriate for colder weather to me. Also, I think the leather note referred to is actually castoreum, a material used to create leather notes, but here I feel it's character shines through more distinctively in it's smoky, dried fruit qualities.

Hey, I once worked for Knize in Vienna and I love the "Ten" for more than 25 Years now. Out of all the pronunciation-varieties I've ever heard, yours comes closest to how a guy from Vienna would say it. Still: the Z is a very soft sh-sound. Like the one you use in "sauvage" Plus: the K and the N are closer, like one sound. so the result would be a long ee like in "knee" but the K here isn't silent. not k-a-nee... but hard KNeeeesha with a rather short end-syllable, like some people in english-speaking-countries would pronounce the end-syllable of "porsche"...

A very enjoyable video - well done! Your choices are excellent. Mostly safe but not boring. Very pleased to see Knize Ten among them (my favourite) which, as you say, is more niche. Also nice to see Blenheim Bouquet which I'm very fond of. Pour Monsieur by Chanel deserves to be there, and for Olde Worlde dandy charm I would include Penhaligion's Hammam Bouquet and Mouchoir de Monsieur by Guerlain which I wear on the odd occasion.

I own every fragrance in this vid. except the Penhaligon's Blenheim bouquet. Greate list, I would definitely add to this list "Aramis - Aramis" & "Rive Gauche pour Homme by Yves Saint Laurent". (Rive Gauche sadly discontinued again.) + Rougere Royale - Houbigant

Female point of view... Lagerfeld is IT !! One of the most pleasant fragrances I have ever encountered (for men). In a world where both men and women layer scent, Lagerfeld is refreshing and unoffensive. I am a big fan of " a little dab'll do ya ".

I have been keeping a copy of these ten in my phone this summer, including when recently walking into an interior design shop while in Florida a few weeks ago. This shop happened to have a display for Eight & Bob; which is the first time I have run across it. They were generous enough to provide a sample for me and I ended up wearing it a few times while on holiday that week. I now plan to wear the Original for an upcoming fall wedding (evening/semi-formal attire), which I think might be appropriate. Thanks for the tips. Looking forward to eventually trying some of the others on the list.

It's known in the perfumers circle that it's Pierre Bourdon who created Green Irish Tweed, and Olivier Creed is the person who commissioned it. This also makes sense because Pierre Bourdon later created Davidoff's Cool Water which smells pretty much the same as Green Irish Tweed.

Great list...I know it's tough when limiting yourself to just 10. I have Green Irish Tweed as well as Bois du Portugal and Viking which both work well and from Penhaligon's I really like Sartorial.

I would definitely add Aramis (classic) to the list...its a real classic, outperforms most of the fragrances you mentioned and can be had for very little money these days. Everyone who won't spent serious money on Green Irish Tweed, should check out Coty - Aspen, it's very similar to GIT and is a real cheapie, without smelling cheap.

Ron, I would agree w/you two decades ago. The problem w/Aspen today, it's been reformulated and it's staying power is terrible. In other words, it's watered down--shame, but a fact. GIT is the way to go and saving for it is well worth the price tag--you can find int on discounters for half the price as retail. Shop around. If you don't want to pony up the cash for GIT, another option is Cool Water and that may suffice. Hope this helps, thanks.

@@amgolfer3591 I dont find the recent Aspen a terrible performer. Even thou it doesnt last the whole working day, likd GIT does, it's so cheap you basically can bath in it and reapply. Not to say Apsen smells as sophisticated as GIT but its definitely in the same ballpark. As you mentioned, also over here in Europe GIT can be had for much less than the official Creed retail price (I paid around 150 EUR for a 100 ml bottle), its nevertheless an expensive fragrances for most and Aspen gives you at least a taste of GIT.

@@hespokestyle Honestly, Habit Rouge and Floris 89 share a similar scent profile. Habit rouge has a stronger vanilla and citrus accord. I agree that floris 89 can be worn all year round, while Habit Rouge EdT is a bit more suited to the cooler seasons. Both are great and rarely smelled here in the states.
