13 MEN'S FRAGRANCES That Have Stood The Test Of Time | Great Smelling Classic Men's Perfumes

I wore Kenzo in the 90’s and a friend of mine just recently text me and said she was going up the escalator and someone rushed past her smelling of Kenzo. She said it transported her to our youthful shenanigans immediately. Scent memory is very vivid.

Armani Eau Pour Homme should also be on the list! One of the most classic manly scents

This should be a 10-part series

I am a fan of Jaipur Pour Homme. When I said so on Quora, someone who was criticizing my "out of date" fragrance preferences said of Jaipur, "I find it to be highly pretentious."

I have the Aramis, Givenchy and Eau Sauvage. First two are great cold weather scents. Eau Sauvage is THE best summer scent. But the most versatile old-school scent is Chanel Pour Monsieur. Day, night, date, formal, work, summer, winter - it is never wrong to wear it.

The original Armani Pour Homme…around 1983…it’s the greatest!!!

Ted Lapudus ,Karl Legerfeld,Quarim, Geonfraco Ferre.

Paco Rabane sadly passed away Friday at 88. I'm wearing his Victory smells good.

Azzaro pour homme was the first fragrance I owned as a 12 year old. My cousin bought it for me on my birthday and she was shocked that what I asked for was a fragrance. One of my favourites still. Fahrenheit, Eau Sauvage, Quorum, Kouros were always in my father's rotation, God bless his soul. Great video Sebastian.

My father wore Drakkar Noir. He passed away Oct. 2022. I have his last bottle, and once in awhile I spray some to remind me of him...

Perfume guy - brut by faberge needs to be on there.

My all-time favorite scent for men is grey flannel... It was reformulated, waterdown and reformulated again, because the Blue version was horrible. Now it smells close to the original and has a lasting scent like the original too.

Interesting list, but you're missing Azzaro Pour Homme, which is one of the more important ones.

Blind bought Pour Lui last year, nice but horrifyingly it's got a distinct exact Ck Obsession undertone, apart from that I'd recommend but if u despise Obsession like I do stay away

And don’t forget TSAR by Van Cleef & Arpels ❤❤

Paco Rabanne pour Homme is great as well.

🤟😃 Part 2 for sure. I love classics

Ordered Lui - Let‘s see 😂

My personal favorite retro fragrance is Halston 101 (Top Notes are Bergamot, Clary Sage, Amalfi Lemon, Lavender and Artemisia ... Heart Notes are Thyme, Pine, Laurel Leaves, Caraway, Geranium and Carnation ... and Base Notes are Leather, Virginia Cedar, Tree Moss, Amber and Musk).

More popular older fragrances: 1) Sung for Men (Alfred Sung)...2) Kouros (YSL)...3) Liz Claiborne for men (LC)...4) Paco Rabanne...5) Lapidus Pour Homme (Ted Lapidus)

I smelled Eau Sauvage recently and thought of it as a perfect white shirt summer frag. Is the modern formulation the same formulation he describes in this video?

Women don't like those scents anymore.

Aramis and Lagerfeld are my go to's.

It's funny how fragrances, clothes, etc have all pivoted to a lesser masculine version today that what it was before.

I was just thinking about buyimg Jaipur homme to my bf, very happy to have your review on it

I still regularly wear and enjoy all of these (minus ‘Pleasures’, the ‘Kenzo’, and the ‘Loewe’) — great presentation!

Hi Sebastian!!!
I wonder if you smell already
Charles Jourdan cologne for man And if you have any video thanks

These are fragrances that even if they are still being produced 100 years from now, will still be relevant and sell well.

Sir great list but u didn't tell about the performance today's I mean then and now

Royal Copenhagen, Kouros, halston z-14, artaeus

i was disappointed in zino when i got it
i might want to revisit

I would even include Aqua Di Gio, Blue De Chanel and Abercrombie Fierce... they changed the game and are still popular to this day

I heard that ARAMIS and the rest of Estee Lauder fragrances for men are going to be stopped, apparently, they will be discontinued.

I feel so old. I have everyone of these in my collection 😂😂 Part 2 please.

Thanks for your list! One that I have always loved and miss the original very much, is Tsar by Van Cleef and Arpels in the dark green bottle. A real comment getter. The original was so good! The knock-offs that followed were lousy. :(( Another favorite had been Bijan for Men. Where have all the good ones gone?

Moods by Krizia, from the 80’s . A very unusual man scent at the time.

Gucci Nobile is one of these timeless Masterpieces. One if not the best aromatic fougere I've ever smelled. Unfortunately discontinued in 2003 that's why most of people don't know about it😔

Armarni EAU POUR HOMME (1984) is the one I think about! The current reformulated version is quite Good also.

To those reading this Polo was reformulated yet again in 2019 to smell alit closer to the original. So sometimes when people talk about the bad reformulation they may not have tried 2019 and up. Have you smelled the 2019 versions Sebastian?

What! No D&G pour homme blasphemy.

Were all the male colognes all ultra masculine in the 80's and back? What did men do when they didn't want to smell like the typical strong masculine scent back then? I love Pleasures for men! I literally just got another bottle last month!

Thanks for the very good review!

Awesome video! Can you please let me know if there are other fragz that smell like polo green. I love the DNA. Are there any clones,designers, or niche recommendations. I think fragrances are going to make there way back to these OG's! Another video like this would be awesome.

Revlon that man perfume similar perfume if anyone know

I think I might add Giorgio Beverly Hills to this list.

Jaipur Pour Homme is a fantastic fragrance. Oscar De La Renta Pour Lui is my frag of the day. I like Zino as well.

Joop still a fantastic sweetie and beastly!!

Aramis! Love it! a very distinctive and quality scent! I got it 2 years ago on our trip to portugal!

Aramis was the fragrance that steered me away from Brut in the 1970s. But Eau Sauvage and Givenchy Gentleman became my signature scents in the 80s. Still my favourites. I'm waiting for a delivery of Habit Rouge. That and Héritage are absolute classics. Jaipur is beautifully made but I'm afraid that people will think I smell like a curry house when I wear it. I used to work near the Floris shop on Jermyn St. and spent many happy lunchtimes in there.

Jaipur Homme smells so much more expensive than it is. I wear it exclusively for formal occasions. Same with Habit Rouge EDP. I only recently realized that I didn't have the original Habit Rouge. How different is the EDT?

Okay
