I'm certain that you have created the most educational fragrance channel. It is a channel that is ( refreshingly) worth my viewing time. No foul language or ridiculous antics. Not a cheap random girl in bikini survey channel. I value your perspective. BTW could you recommend other KZitemrs who have a similar relevant education and credentialed fragrance evaluators? Life is short and I'm done with listening to the opinions of those who lack professional designations. STAY CLASSY!

Yea, but a woman shouldn't smell like civet either. Chanel was getting at clean skin, which is why Ernest Beaux used the overdose of aldehydes. Btw, my masculine analogue of The Scent of a Woman, i.e. The Scent of a Man, is Polo by Ralph Lauren.

Hi Ashley, great content as always. There is one thing I might misunderstood and would appreciate if you could clarify. Do you refer to Le Male from Jean Paul Gaultier as an animalic scent or is it a different scent because Le Male is not animalic to me at all. Thanks!

My most animalic perfume is Givenchy Gentleman 1974. Civet, patchouli, honey and leather bomb. Pretty animalic in the opening because of the honey and the civet top but then gets earthy from patchouli and the russian leather with the civet in the back. Greetings

To me the best classic animalic fragrance for men is Chanel Antaeus, with the same atomic power than Kouros but elegant and sofisticated something that Kouros never was, in this case Antaeus use castoreum, don't get me wrong I like Kouros (I have a vintage bottle in my collection) but to me Antaeus is superior in every aspect and another classic that nobody talks nowadays is Diva by Emanuel Ungaro, this one used to be my kryptonite, this was tremendously sexy and totally drove me crazy, I used to ask my girlfriend to use it often just because that used to awake my most primal instincts, this one used civet in its composition, unfortunately although all these 3 fragrances are still on the market the reformulations resulted in fragrances that in some cases are just a watered down version of the original and in others like the Diva totally ruined the fragrance, saludos desde Monterrey, Mexico!

I've always had trouble with animalics in general. Too much funk. But in the right amounts, in the right way, very controlled and judicious, they can impart a je nais se qua (or however its spelled!) to a frag. I love vintage, "old school classics, and evidently many of them used a proprietary concoction known as Animalis, which used costus root among other things. That gives a very slightly funky halitosis-like accord that is much better than it sounds. Here are a few of my favorite frags that seem to have this dimension: Hermés Equipage (1970) Floris Elite (1980) Then there are a few favorite frags I have with animalic notes done well: New York Intense by Parfums de Nicolai Monsieur by Lancetti Danger by Roja (although the nasty cumin complicates it) I hate Kouros. Nasty. Even the creator, Pierre Bourdon, said he doesn't like it. It sounded like you said Le Male, as in JPG Le Male, but I can't imagine that is what you meant. What was it? Oh, and according to the book Floating Gold, a book about ambergris, the origin and nature of ambergris is pretty settled: its whale poop, not vomit.

when talking about KOUROS you mentioned LeMale ? I dont think you meant LeMale (from JPG): did you misspeak? or is there another LeMale that you are referring to ? LeMale (JPG) is well regarded as a more modern Fougere: freshy clean with classic barbershop tones - not animalic is any way - by smell or by note breakdown. Can you advise ?

I had blind bought Jicky a couple of years ago after reading it was a feminine perfume that suited a man. When it came to my house, I opened it, sprayed it, and found it sickening. But then, just as you said, I gave it time, and gradually it settled into something milder, less civet, more lavender, and the combination of the two was unique. I would still not say it is a favorite, but rather an odd, acquired taste I sometimes sample. The civet undertone is not appealing to me, but I ignore it and try to go along with old fashioned oddity of the scent.

More like omg were you assaulted by a skunk?! 🤣 I blind bought one because it was on a limited time sale half off.
