It has none of the pear note anymore nor does it have strong iris which was the signature of DH line.

My condolences to MsHeisenberg. Very cheeky.Chanel Coromandel was the wonderful surprise of 2019. Interesting that dior Homme intense is ranking first three years in a row . How come Best Aventus alternative list still has Aventus in it??? Dior Homme by Christian Dior is a Woody Floral Musk fragrance for men.Dior Homme was launched in 2011.

I will have to make sure to put a couple more sprays on when I wear them just for the haters out there. Please explain to me about Baccarat?? :)@jeremyn87 Gary belongs in this list since it's one of the best fragrances out there, just look it up here on Fragrantica. Although I love the smell, the performance is really, really bad. How can such a major brand be niche? The Scent: The first thing that you will probably get is that Iris. Every winner is a musky funk friend or powderly bomb. Not so much for the rest of us....Why is Gary on the list? Dior Homme Intense is a game changer in the designer world. Of course the votes aren’t accurate because it’s such a small scope so I personally treat this as something just for fun and entertainment. I saw 6 fragrances that I love and own on the 'I hate this perfume' list. But I can't believe Mon Guerlain got the first prize.

Mon Guerlain Intense is selling like hot cakes here in Italy both in stores and online so I guess I can relate that to the rating as best female fragrance of 2019 at least in my country@anenkova with all stong emotions like big love comes 'big hate'. I find it cloying, sweet and somehow suffocating. Something that immediately caught my eye is the central black cylinder, covering the juice tube. Doesn’t matter if it’s a big flex, it’s a winner! Sauvage Parfum Christian Dior (male) ~ 2019. Before LMVH took over Guerlain was impossible to find. The new Dior Homme is created by Dior in-house perfumer Francois Demachy who wanted to redefine masculine sensuality. I nominated LDDM for Best Niche and I'm so glad to see it won =] the most beautiful perfume I've ever smelled.Dior Homme Intense 2011 winning best men's fragrance, yes, yes, yes...Dior homme intense is always my favourite.Aventus has a serious competitor for the title of the most popular fragrance in the world, and this time both men and women appeal to it.Everyone appreciates warm and cozy, dark and mysterious fragrances. In this category, it seems, we voted for perfume stories and fairytales.Best Baccarat Rouge alternative is Baccarat! Please read the Creed Aventus losing to CDNIM as best CA alternative is hilariousReading the results of the contest was really fun. Elena was born in Russia, studied Slavic languages and literature in Moscow, and lived in Sarajevo and Belgrade, where the idea of Fragrantica was born. Probably one of the best designer scents ever made.
I'm kinda confused why there are so many 2018 winners in the best of 2019 categories.It was fun, and I like the results, they are very close to my own choices I offered in our Editors' Favorites.

Interesting to see how people's taste ranged this year. I am sure there are regions where particular favorites are used by many. ☺️Really happy to see GUERLAIN doing so well here! We all know it was the fragrance which Creed cloned for VikingGuerlain is certainly not niche..Never has been.. Now, all of you, dismiss..What I am about say might read offensive but this is my completly honest opinion.Why is Guerlain not Niche, because you can buy them in most places? Maybe someday I'll understand you. We put some of the last categories like Aventus alternative or 'I hate it' to leave space for people to fool around. However, the winners are all excellent perfumes. Such a variety of ideas makes this passion so much fun! I enjoyed participating in the voting but there may have been several other voters who did not have any first hand experience with many of the contenders. The box is a simple black cardboard box with silver logo and writings on it.

I remember Dior Homme Parfum being really strong. They are a kaleidoscope of all good perfumes from the last few years and something good for everybody.

After 3 hours there was barely a trace of it. I was really pulling for her to take first place this year. It's so buttery …

The scent of Mugler`s Angel literally makes me angry.
There are never going to be too many surprises in an exercise like this, so the slightly silly categories shake it up a bit. I should ask Gary about that.Congrats to all the winners! 3 Office For Men Fragrance One (male) ~ 2019. Well, this is another side of popularity and a reminder that not everyone likes sweet and intense fragrances.Ew. It really is a lovely scent. This has been reformulated and it can be now called Dior Homme Intense 2019. A virile accord of Atlas cedar and the warmth of cashmere wood are pampered with spicy aromas.

As soon as you open the box, you are presented with a simple, yet luxurious bottle. i laughed my entire ass off at the Most Hated Perfumes list; cannot disagree with any of it. The fragrance is intensely woody, warm, and sensual. Go Andy Tauer and goooooooo Gary! 8 Mémoire d’une Odeur Gucci (unisex) ~ 2019.

5 Aventus Cologne Creed (male) ~ 2018.
