garland this is lome edel extreme 2020
release
brand new just hit shelves we're going
to check this out see how it compares to
the other ones and i'm going to tell you
guys if this is worth your time
and money and attention guys if you want
to check this one out and what it's all
about
stick around the videos up next
welcome back to the fragrance review i'm
max forte if you guys
love to make a great first impression
you do know that smelling great is a
great way to start today we're going to
talk about
lom edalic strem which is the seventh
fragrance in this line
and the sixth flanker since the original
right here the edt
which up to this point it is my favorite
but we're gonna dive into this fragrance
right here the newest 2020 release
available
in europe right now hasn't quite made
its way here to the us
but i'm sure over the next few weeks
we're going to see this fragrance
popping up left and right
probably not as readily available as the
other ones right now but
in time i'm sure you're going to be able
to find this if you guys want to check
this one out when it comes to
presentation
you've seen one you've seen them all
they're going to have this very cookie
cutter kind of a you know presentation
if you will
whereas the bottle is going to be a
square looking bottle i do like it a lot
a big fan i think it's very chic it's
very elegant very masculine with the
rugged
you know square thick glass bottle love
the little logo here
the crest and sigma is also in the top
of the caps the caps is a hard plastic
but
still nice and the sprayers are very
nice you can't control the miss
depending on how hard you push the
atomizer you also have the emblem
or the the crest of ghalon right here at
the atomizer
quite nice great attention to detail
made in france detailed batch codes at
the bottom which will also match
the boxes but again very cookie cutter
you've seen one you've seen them all
but i do love the presentation i think
the the low middle collection is
actually quite nice because it has this
kyoholon you know touch of
sophistication yet
also mass appealing and very
crowd-pleasing if you will
i do love the reddish burgundy look to
this particular one with the cap and the
logo it gives this very spicy
warmth kind of a feel to the fragrance
as you look at it as we know with galan
with this collection
every year they give us a new flanker
they've been going back and forth with
spicier
warmer fragrances and the cooler ones
you know for the warm weather
so since this was the last one right
here the spicy warm one so the next one
coming up
will be one from this particular side
here the cooler so i'm actually looking
forward to another one as i was a big
fan of this one called the cologne which
is actually
discontinued now this one actually made
my top five
uh blue scents that i actually really
enjoy so it's actually quite good one
the sport version of this particular
collection and the cool
was the latest flanker and the cool side
which is actually really nice with this
mint
touch and of course you're going to find
the almond theme you know the almond
touch and all these fragrances because
that was the commonality of the common
theme
within the almens collection as i said
before this is not readily available in
the states i was able to get this
from europe again i want to give a shout
out to the guy who actually made this
possible you know who you are
muhammad yunus you're fantastic man i
can't thank you enough
thanks for making this happen man so
this is available only in europe and it
is it's available in two sizes the one
you see in here which is the 50 mil or
the 100 mil
and they sell for 87 and 118 dollars
respectively in euros don't know how
much it's going to be
costing when it hits the u.s but i'm
thinking it's going to be probably 95
and 120 give or take between the 50 and
100 mil so stay tuned i'm sure it's
going to hit these the states very soon
within the next week or so
yahan lomi the alex strim is actually a
woody spicy oriental and the nose behind
this one is the in-house perfumer of
gahlan
so what do we got from lom e the alex
tram let me give myself a new
spray here to remind myself of the
introduction i am wearing this this is
my center day today believe it or not
it's actually been a little cool here in
the evenings
and early in the morning so i can
actually pull this off during the day
gets quite warm but we'll talk about
occasions and
seasons in a second the opening here is
actually quite nice
guys you guys know i like woody spicy
oriental fragrances
and this one here opens up really really
beautiful you have this
almost boozy nuance that gives you
almost like a cognac a liqueur kind of a
vibe which is quite nice
but that liqueur cognac booziness will
only stay present within the next 10-15
minutes it's not gonna last throughout
life the fragrance but it gives you a
really nice boozy liqueur kind of effect
right from the beginning so it's gonna
capture you it's gonna really get you
from the get-go if you enjoy those type
of scents
now this particular flanker also as i
read the briefing when i read
uh you know details and promos about
this fragrance i was really excited
because it had three notes that i
absolutely love in perfumery
besides booziness which is also plum
tobacco and leather and this fragrance
was supposed to have
all three notes all three chords and i'm
getting the plum here
with a little bit of a suede leather
which is actually very nice it's fruity
it's a little bit sweet not
overly sweet and the leather is also
here but it's like a suede leather very
uh warm very um very
cozy it gives you like this cozy effect
i also get an animalistic
honey kind of a effect here so all you
honey bees out there that loves garland
you're going to adore this one because
it has a really predominant honey facet
to the scent that's a little bit powdery
and it's a little bit animalistic as
well the tobacco is also present however
it is more of a dry tobacco it's not
really like a you know sweet pipe
tobacco
like you would find in purevon or noxus
from sergio but it's definitely present
it's going to be more on a dry variety
and it's going to sit more
for support it's not a main character
main player here the almonds are going
to really pop here
along with heliotrope which will add a
little bit of a creaminess to the scent
adding to the sweetness i also get a
little bit of a tonka bean effect
which is not listed as a note but i
definitely get that and that sweetness
is
more even more rounded and a little bit
more resinous with uh combination of
benzoin and vanilla
into the scent as you get into the heart
into the dry don't have the dry down
here
the vanilla the benzoin the resinous
effect along with that honey
will really pop after 35-40 minutes into
the scent
when it comes to the spiciness here
there's a red pepper feel here but it's
ever so
smooth and slight in the back just
offering some support popping its head
here and there
but what i do get most predominant here
in the fragrance is going to be cinnamon
if you do enjoy cinnamon there's a lot
of cinnamon here it's up front and
center
writing the fragrance from beginning to
end the heart of the fragrance you get
this melange of the plum with that
honey accord that i told you about along
with the vanilla and the benzoin that
really comes forth
the heliotrope and the tonka beans will
give this creamy sweet almost
cherry-like vibe
with the tobacco it's very nice you also
get a little bit of a dry patchouli that
also again offers support dimension more
character to the composition it's very
well blended
uh it smells of sophistication of of you
know refinement of high class
which is what you would expect from a
garland release so this one here is
definitely approved guys i love the
introduction i love the transition into
the heart
now let's talk about the dry down so
after 35-40 minutes you're left with
what you're going to be left with for
the remainder of the life of this
fragrance which by the way is
long-lasting we'll talk about the
performance in a second
the dried-down is right here the dried
now is going to be
this sweet cherry vanilla benzoin honey
like a minimalistic kind of a honey that
i told you about
along with the spiciness which is really
in the background so
the most predominant accords here are
going to be
the heliotrope with the almonds with a
little bit of a hint of
the cherry which is really the plum the
fruitiness that you get the sweetness
here is not overbearing
but if you do overspray especially in
the heat right now it can't be clawing
because again it's going to be a little
bit powdery
and it's going to be sweet and honey
like with the animalistic touch
so it can be overbearing if you go crazy
trigger happy right now in the
summertime
but it's very nice you're going to like
i said we left off with this dry
patchouli
slash tobacco cherry benzoin resinous
animalistic honey with that fruity plum
up top
really nice set really loved it from the
beginning to the end a pleasure
to wear this particular release guys
three words that i would use to
summarize the new
galan lomi del x trim this is creamy
it's sweet and it's refined talking
about performance this stuff here was
close to beastly now here's the deal
this is
i got about 10 plus hours on skin if you
spray your clothes expect
for it to be there the next day so i
wouldn't recommend with this one here
if you spray the back of your hands or
your arms you're going to be fine you're
going to really you know
emanate this particular fragrance i
would not spray it this region right
here especially right now in the heat of
the summer
once it starts to get cooler out you
know in the fall in the winter you can
go a little bit crazier here
even spray your clothes if you like to
because it's going to be long-lasting
when it comes to the performance as
longevity was
10 plus hours for me projection very
strong for the first hour and a half two
hours it's really gonna push
you're gonna really emanate people are
gonna get your siage they're going to
like the way you smell but
as i said before it can be a little bit
too sweet a little bit too powdery a
little bit too animalistic for the
weather right now in the heat of the
summer here in the u.s
perhaps early spring fall and winter
will be the perfect occasions for this
fragrance
i was quite impressed with the
performance of garland and alex trim
does this fragrance remind me of
anything it does remind me of the
original
creation here the edt which i do love it
is my favorite so i really enjoy that it
took it a little bit higher
level it up a little bit on some of the
components especially in the almonds
it's very thick and heavy
very deep a little bit spicy not as
spicy as i would like it to be but again
you're going to get the honey facet
perhaps uh resemblances with habit huge
from garland as well so it has a little
bit of that old school kind of a vibe
that gallon has perhaps that honey that
i felt that is present here that girly
nod that you know golan is so famous for
it is definitely present here so perhaps
this is the most refined and
here's the thing the more you wear this
fragrance the more it's going to grow on
you the more you're going to get that
honey vibe that i talked about when i
was joking and say hey honeybees you
guys are going to love this honeybees is
a group
on facebook just for gallons so if you
do enjoy
honey acor the animalistic vibe that we
always love with garland
you're definitely going to get that
present here like i said the more you
wear the fragrance the more it's going
to grow on you
and i think it's going to be one of
those fragrances that if you enjoy this
type of
collection it's one that you should
definitely consider having in your
collection
and also for a point of reference as far
as like family classifications and
genres so you get a little bit of a feel
of what this fragrance smells like and
in the same genre same family similar
category
you guys enjoyed dior favorite lisios
again doesn't smell exactly like those
fragrances but they're in the same
family like they could be cousins
so if you like those you're gonna most
likely enjoy this one so if you enjoy
fragrances like that delicious from dior
if you enjoy
uh pure von from mugler or pure malt
from mueller especially the beginning
with that boozy accord that i told you
about
you're definitely going to enjoy this
and so if you like those oriental spicy
fragrances
like the ones i just mentioned this is
going to be one that you're definitely
going to love
occasion setting seasons ages i think
this is definitely more mature
perhaps 25 or 30 or up to really
appreciate this
you must have a seasoned nose you must
like you know spice your woodier
fragrances that are not
your run-of-the-mill aromatics that you
find in general stores this is going to
be more
for somebody that really likes and have
tried a plethora of different you know
genres and classifications to enjoy this
one as far as occasions i think this is
more dressy
it's darker it's deeper so i think
evening wear rather than daily
casual i think this is more dressier
evening wear would do very well for
romantic setting perhaps a first date
when you want to make a really
first impression you want to turn heads
i think this would be a perfect scent
for that or
special occasions for that matter
season's for sure
it's dark it's deeper so we're talking
colder weather so this will warm you up
will feel cozy just like the leather
that you get here with that suede
beautiful
suede leather like that you know vibe
that you get with this fragrance so
definitely early spring
fall and winter would be the perfect
seasons for this one in fact
i wouldn't be surprised if i actually
put this in my rotation in the upcoming
fall this year
because i am really looking forward to
wearing this one guys my final thoughts
on garland edl lomi dell x trim is
actually this is a very good release one
of the best ones for
from 2020 so far uh there has been some
good ones but this is definitely in my
top
10 favorites from this year so far
really like what they did here i do
enjoy this collection a lot as you can
see i have all the the different
flankers up to this point
uh the original one is definitely my
favorite i do like these
you know warmer weather ones and i can't
wait for the next one which is probably
going to be another
warm weather one but i'm quite enamored
with this one really looking forward to
wearing you know in the upcoming
colder seasons for me here in new york
