One thing I'll always love eldo for is they genuinely seem to enjoy making fragrances, they don't always take things so seriously but always take care on what they produce 👏

That is what's cool about them and I haven't given up on them yet (like Mugler) I still wanna see what they are gonna do next so, that's a good thing.

Cool pondering. Been tuning in and out for years and so glad to see you are still producing material and keeping it simple but yet authentic, true and genuine. Great taste, Rien and Hermann my two favs! Keep at it if you can.

The perfume got that name so that the person would reply “rien!” (“nothing!”) when asked what he/she is wearing. Clever!

That’s amazing! All 5 of my favorites were your 5 favorites and the 5 I liked less were the five you liked the least as well. I’m going to have to start binging your reviews since we apparently have similar tastes. Great video

I have been wanting to get into exploring that house and the video helps out a lot. Many thanks!!

Thank you. I still love Divin'Enfant the most since I discovered it on 2010. Just recently purchased another bottle to treat myself on a special occasion (my old style bottle has about 10ml left or less). That said, I haven't tried many ELDO since 2012-14, and have thus missed out on the latest, including all your 5 favorites in here. Nice to spark my curiosity! Be well.

Great reviews! I’m enjoying Divin Enfant and also Fat Electrician . I agree with most of your thoughts on these. 😊

Having about a dozen or more Etat’s I would have to agree with your assessment with Marquis De Sade being one of my favorites although I find something about Charogne highly addictive and for some reason cannot get enough of it. Cheers

Of the ones I've tried, I would agree completely with your reviews. I actually do own a couple that you don't like as much, and you are spot on with your descriptions of them.

i’ve only sniffed two from this house, being jasmin et cigarette and afternoon of a faun and i actually liked both! i prefer jasmin et cigarette as it’s quite a good juxtapose of notes. Afternoon of a faun is great it just isn’t wearable in my opinion. it smells like a log cabin that has sat all winter up here in northern minnesota haha.

Afternoon of a Faun was the one of theirs that I SO wanted to love but then...immortelle! Nope, one of my least favourite notes. :(

Remarkable People smells just like a gel air freshener that my aunt used to use at Christmas. I had trouble putting my finger on it but now that I've realized I'm very tempted to buy bc I miss her and it is a nice way to spark some memories. At the same time I feel a bit silly spending $100 on a scent that I'm sure she bought at Dollar Tree. LOL.

I have never smelled anything from Etat Libre D'Orange, so I loved hearing you talk about some of them, thank you :) Btw, when you get tired of your sweater, do not throw it out, send it to a poor student - as in me :D

ELDO is probably my favorite brand. My favorites are Like This, Putain des Palaces, Jasmin et Cigarette and Cologne, but I want to try absolutely everything. Even the ones I don't like, I typically still respect where they're coming from. I do agree though, some of the newer releases have a much stronger concept than the actual scent, which is too bad. But at least they're trying new things!

@ouch110

Yes! It's a brand I haven't given up on yet (Sorry Mugler) haha. They are still making unique and edgy fragrances, just not as much as when they first started.

Absolutely agree about "Yes I Do." It is incredibly pedestrian, not even an introductory scent for niche scents, much less the House of ELD. I still love Tom of Finland, I still love Secretions, and I still love Fat Electrician. On my to buy list is Eau de Protection. I LOVE rose mixed with sharper fragrances. Thanks for the reviews!!

Great best & worst picks! I've recently ordered their discovery kit and one of their new ones called Spice Must Flow just blew me away. One of the best roses I've ever tried! You should definitely get your nose on that one :)

Very close to making Hermann my signature scent. I just find myself loving when I catch a whiff of it as I stroll around. It's interesting that they portray it is such a dark fragrance, as the opening is in my opinion very bright and orangey (which I love). I think it must be the geosmin that adds the really nice dampness/darkness to the perfume? Either way, I'm a huge fan. Awesome vid as well!

The concepts, stories and ideas behind the brand are so creative and unique but the bottles make me think of a group of boys on a lad's holiday- that logo is very 90's man.

Hermann and Experimentum Crucis are my favorites. I do like I Am Trash, as well. It does last longer on my skin.

Remarkable People is not remarkable at all, you are right. It gave me a plasticky feel. True Lust on the other hand is really nice, powdery, floral, slightly boozy fragrance but I totally understand that you rate it low because of laziness. I tried it and bought a tester bottle before I had ever tried Putain de Palace or Dangerous Simplicity. So it was new to me! I have considered getting rid of it because of not interesting enough, but then I always realise how much I like the rice powder in there.
