    Bastian always creates a sense of intrigue when he speaks about a fragrance he likes..

    And since I’ve never been blessed by this scent,i’ll take his word.

    Something very special about this fragrance that isn’t like any of the other designers and that it is quite pleasant and boozy.

    Sounds good to me! 🙂

  • I love Sebastian’s reviews! This one was great because it revisited a classic designer. One that hasn’t been reviewed in a while, but I’m sure everyone in the fragcom would consider it hall of fame. One of my favorites!

  • I can name a dozen reasons why I liked sebastian’s review but the main reason for loving his reviews is the way he is passionate about fragrances and the details of the notes he describes about each fragrance!

  • Would love to try this. I’ve just recently started my fragrance journey and have not tried this one. So glad to be a member of Sebastians group so I can get exposed to new things like this.

  • What I enjoy the most in his videos is the format really. It’s in the right spot in between too long, too much of literal note breakdown, look at the presentation etc… And too short so important info can be missing

    To be honest I’m not a fan of many AMen flankers as I find most very redundant and boring. But the original and Pure Malt are two big loved ones for me (And Pure Havane is also nice) but I don’t have a bottle of Pure Malt yet so this is why I’m very excited to enter this giveaway. Thank you by the way.

  • Enjoyed this quite a but,and it’s great to hear about stuff that’s not new. I really want to try Pure Malt – its been on my to-try list for ages! I’ve only tried Angel, believe it oe not, so I’ve got no favorites yet, lol. In the US

  • I love Sebastian’s reviews because from experience, I know I that they are honest and that I can always trust them.

  • I like the fact that he re-reviewed this frag and it still stands up to the old bottles. Good for Mugler! I have samples of pure havane and would love to try pure malt! Count me in!

  • Jordan Ponder says:

    The thing I love about Sebastian’s videos is how apparent his love of perfumery is. Too many fragrance reviewers come across stale and clinical but Sebastian is always entertaining and I love his more relaxed and conversational style. I’ve never had the opportunity to try Pure Malt so I would love to win! The only Mugler I’m familiar with is Mugler Cologne-such a wonderful fresh & soapy scent which I feel gets unfortunately lost in the shadow of the A*Men line

  • scentastic27 says:

    As always an awesome review from sebastian very informative and great content about pure malt, hes always on point and i have bought myself a few cologne and parfums base on his reviews , he never dissapoint , thank you very much for the giveaway .

  • I love how Sebastian walks us through the notes and character of Pure Malt in a way that we can experience the essence of the fragrance as accurately as humanly possible without actually trying it. I tested Pure Malt just a couple of days ago, and I fell in love, I’ve got to get a bottle! Sebastian is right, it is intoxicating! As a new fraghead, I’m glad Sabastian has introduced me to a great site like CafleureBon!

  • Sebastian has been passionate about this line for quite a while. I finally tracked Pure Malt down and it was certainly worth the effort. Since we have similar tastes in scents, A*Men did not disappoint. Sebastian offers detailed reviews in an accessible manner that has kept a subscriber for years. Thank you for the giveaway

  • I like the way he talks about fragrances like a single scent, en then he discribes masterfully every single note.

  • I’m very familiar with Pure Malt. I loved how Sebastian focused on how unique it is in comparison with other designers I’ve found in department stores. It’s truly a masterpiece and Sebastian did it justice with this review.

  • I really do appreciate Sebastian’s reviews. I’ve talked to him many times and his knowledge regarding fragrances is phenominal. I always appreciate his blunt honest and his ability to really go into depth about his fragrances. He never really skims the surface, but instead dives in deep.

    I haven’t ever got my nose on Pure Malt, but I did with Pure Havane. PH was a wonderful fragrance that was very sweet–not cloying, but very well rounded.

  • vijayvenkat4u says:

    Sebastian is a very special reviewer to me on whose recommendation and analysis, I have purchased several fragrances. His reviews are very crisp, accurate in his understanding of the creation and very informative to consumers of all types and this video was no exception. He is more of a guide to me than a reviewer and I always trust his judgment. I cannot wait to try this after watching his video.

  • Sebastian is so right. Pure malt smells so unique. First sniff of this stuff and i was in heaven. I never smell anything like this before. Needless to say, I went on to buy 2 more bottles for family and friends plus Pure Havane to try out also.

  • Yeaaaa….a men’s fragrance. You had me at boozy. Interesting how they age this fragrance. I’m positive I would like this but oddly have never tried it. Somehow I keep passing it over. I am only familiar with the original Angel which I had many, many years ago. It was unique and amazing. Always garnered compliments. If I could create a fragrance it would be quite similar to Pure Malt. All the right ingredients for my skin. I’m ready for my wearing…In the USA. Awesome review Sebastian. Keep em coming.

  • Couple of the things of the many, I liked about this review from Sebastian. His brevity in description: A*Men DNA in an oak barrel:) And more importantly, his enthusiasm in this review is wonderful. You can tell how much he really likes this fragrance and doesn’t just rehash some stats about it:) Nice work Sebastian and thanks Cafleurebon as always for the opportunity!

  • what I like about Sebastian’s review of Thierry Mugler’s pure malt is the way he describes the dry down he is spot on. Yes I have experience with pure malt after I blind bought a bottle of Thierry Mugler’s pure malt after watching Sebastian’s first review of pure malt best blind buy ever.
    I am from America
    thanks Cafleurebon and Sebastian for this draw and wonderful review.

  • What a great review Sebastian. Thierry Mugler Pure Malt is a staple for any fragrance collection. It’s an amazing scent so gorgeous and so unique. Thierry Mugler always do a great job with A*men flankers. My favorite is Pure Havane but is very hard to decide because Pure Malt is amazing too.
    Thanks to Thierry Mugler Oficial USA, Çafleurebon and Sebastian for this amazing draw.
    I’m in the U.S 🙂

  • SmellingSweet30 says:

    What I love about Sebastian’s reviews is the balance of passion for the scent and detailed descriptions. I really enjoy the original A*Men and would love to win this flanker. Thank you for the opportunity! I am in the US.

  • Sebastian is a great reviewer. He hit the nail on the head saying that women love the scent. I sampled once and received complement after complement after commenting. This would be a great way to add this great fragrance to my collection!

  • Hey nice to see a review of one of my fave Frags on my fave blog. Mugler has so many great ones A*Men original Mugler Cologne and all the taste of leathers
    Would love to win this I think the review was “addicting”

  • I enjoyed the Dino photo. I don’t believe I ever smelled this Mugler, but I’d love to win it. If women love this all the better. USA

  • New to the site and relatively new to the fragrance world. I really like Sebastian’s channel and all of his reviews,his passion for fragrance is contagious!! I love A-men and own that and also pure wood. Thank you for the opportunity for the giveaway

  • First and foremost, Thank you for this awesome giveaway!

    As always, Sebastian gives more to imagine than simply reading out notes on a specific fragrance. I enjoyed learning about the process of the making of Pure Malt. Aging the fragrance in oak barrels and fine whiskey is definitely interesting and you can certainly smell the richness in this fragrance.

    I’ve had the pleasure of sampling this beauty and would be beyond ecstatic if I win this giveaway!

  • Amazing review my friend Sebastian. I agree with you on everything you said about this wonderful fragrance Pure Malt. This is one of the best design perfume already launched with niche quality for sure. I love it and for me it is the best Thierry Mugler without any doubt.
    USA

  • Sebastian’s is my best reviewer in youtube, he is nice.
    I wish I could win, cuz I can not afford the Thierry Mugler Pure Malt 🙁

    thank you for this opportunity

  • Duane Cormier says:

    I really appreciate Sebastian’s honest, frank reviews and commentary.
    I love every Mugler I’ve tried and have been interested in trying PM for awhile.

  • Devicemanager says:

    Thierry Mugler always tries to stand out out of other houses, i love how Sebastian describes the essence and all the notes this flanker is really good i have tried all of them and they are all great and yes it is niche quality , thank you Sebastian for your reviews, and thanks you CafleureBon for the opportunity to win this great product AMEN!

  • Sebastian is so passionate about fragrance! I am a new follower and I just love how honest and down to earth he is when he describes his experience with a fragrance. I’m excited that he really likes Pure Malt and feels it stands up to the original A Men. I’d be thrilled to win this for my boyfriend. He’s a big fan of Thierry Mugler fragrances.

    I live in the U.S. (New York)

  • Have become a big fan of Sebastian’s reviews. He gives succinct information about the fragrance, and you can tell when he loves it as he does with Pure Malt. I haven’t gotten to sample it yet. Really digging on Pure Havane.

  • Sebastian is my go to fragrance reviewer,he just seems to be a
    Nice likeable guy that has a good nose and can relate to us what
    A fragrance has to offer. I loved perfumes ever since I was a child
    I don’t own many but I truly love them.
    From Walnut Creek, California.

  • What else to say about Sebastian? One of the best reviewers out there, impressive colection, real passion for fragrances, and plenty of reviews.

  • I liked his teaming up with cafleurebon to show me new perfume site and give me a chance for free mugler

  • I have watched Sebastian’s reviews and I may not agree with all of his choices but there are also choices I could not agree with more and this is one of those. Mugler has a pretty good record in flankers and Sebastian finds a good balance between technical information and impression which can be understood by most people. I agree with Sebastian Pure Malt is, indeed, intoxicating. My fav. Mugler remains Angel. thanks so much for the draw. I am in the US.

  • Great Review. It’s nice to hear from somebody who his passionate when comes to fragrances. Very detail oriented and yet concise. I look forward to his review of TM’s Pure Tonka when it arrives later this month.

  • Santa Batistini says:

    Pure Malt defines how beautiful and unique a designer fragrance can be. I believe that the hype behind this fragrance make Thierry Mugler re-release this fragrance ‘limited edition’ fragrance and in my opinion they did the right decision.
    My favorite Mugler fragrance is Ultra Zest.
    USA

  • I have gone thru multiple decants o this juice. I love it for the same reasons as Sebastion does….boozy, gourmand, patchouli……it truly is an awesome fragrance!

  • Great review. This perfume has a unique caramelized touch with the high quality malt, one of the best scent boozy I’ve ever tasted. My first bottle of this perfume finished very fast used a lot but my favorite is the Angel.
    USA

  • Paulie Peanuts says:

    I am very familiar with Sebastian’s reviews.. He already knows that I am a big fan. I enjoyed his take on this classic in the fragrance community because everything he said was right on the money. Pure malt is just one of those fragrances that differentiates itself from everything else from the very first sniff.. There was a reviewer awhile back that really shined the light on this fragrance in the youtube community. Curious if anyone here knows who this person is that I am referring to… Here is a hint…. The reviewer is in this video.. Thanks for the generous giveaway!!

  • I enjoy all the video reviews. Adds a nice dimension. I love to hear the opinions and see the expressions that go with it. I would like to win this to give to someone. 🙂 U.S.A.

  • Ah boozy, woody gourmand?!? Right up my alley, and what a nice prezzie it would be for my Valentine’s Birthday! I appreciate that Sebastian points out that this is a great value (which is a consideration for many of us) and that it is not what EVERY guy out there is wearing. I am a fan of the original A* Men and still have my lovely Pure Coffee. Thanks for the chance, am keeping my fingers crossed!

  • Um dos melhores e mais incriveis que eu ja provei. Thierry Mugler acertou neste perfume e conseguiu ainda ter o DNA do original. Meu preferido agora é o Ultra Zest.
    USA

  • If Sebastian is on his third bottle, it must be pretty good! I haven’t tried many Muglers, but I do remember liking the Cologne. I’m in the US. Thanks.

  • I have enjoyed Sebastian’s review. I agree with him in everything he said. My bottle of Purê Malt finished one year ago and I need to make a replacement. Purê Havane is also one of the stars of the Purê line actually I prefer Purê Have but Purê Malt is amazing too.
    🙂 U.S.A.

  • I love Sebastián’s reviews. He goes inot great detail on the notes.my favorite from the house is BMen

  • I’ve followed Sebastian for years. His videos are the best in the fragrance community. I really enjoyed his review. I own many bottles of TM fragrances. I really like Pure Havane.

  • A taste of Fragrance is my favorite AMEN flanker. But they are all fantastic. Sebastian from LFSG is a very entertaining reviewer.

  • I have many favorites, like Alien, Angel, even Ultra Zest. I really enjoyed Sebastian’s review because he shows us the bottle, talks in detail about the note breakdown.

  • Great review Sebastian. It is my first time on this website and it seems that cafleurebon.com has a super cool content about perfumery. Pure Malt is my favorite Tierry Mugler. I’m on my second bottle going for 3 as well.
    I live in the U.S.
    Thanks

  • Thomas Turbano says:

    Great review Sebastian. Lovely channel I started see your vídeos since you had the Manlovescologne channel. My favorite is The A*Men Taste of Fragrance. The bottles of Thierry mugler always calls my attention and the classic star of the bottle is very nice.
    U.S.A.

  • I always enjoy Sebastian’s reviews. They’re spot on and quite insightful. I’ve only ever smelt the original Amen which was a sillage and longevity monster on my skin but I’ve always wanted to try the flankers.

  • Paula Tejano says:

    I really loved Sebastián’s review. Pure malt is a very remarkable fragrance very boozy, gourmand, with patchouli, caramel, malt amazing juice. I got many compliments when I wear this fragrance. My favorite mugler is the original A*Men.

  • I enjoyed how confident, but laid back Sebastian is everytime he reviews. He definitely delivers on his video on Pure Malt. The part of review was when Sebastian highlighted how this fragrance is great for newbies coming into the fragrance community.

  • Very nice video Sebastian. When we talk about Thierry Mugler for me is very hard to choose the best fragrance of the brand. When you have fragrance like A*Men, Pure Malt, Pure Havane, Pure Coffee, Pure Leather, Pure Wood, Taste of Fragrance now Ultra Zest. It’s a big arcenal that turn Mugler one of the best designer brand out there. Now is coming Pure Tonka and I’m sure that this one won’t disappoint too.

  • He always has this sense of wonderment and passion when he speaks about perfumery. Its more than just a fragrance its a experience.

  • Pure Wood is my favorite A*MEN flanker but most of all are amazing fragrances and Pure Malt is one of my favorite too. Sebastian did a great review as always. I’m from U.S.

  • Sebastian’s review got me wondering why I haven’t spent more time checking out the Thierry Mugler line in general: if nothing else, that house produces fragrance with big personalities! I have a tiny sample spray of Angel Rose, and it’s nuclear powered. A*Men Pure Malt sounds like it’s more relaxed. I’d love to win A*Men Pure Malt because it sounds like the kind of thing I’d enjoy smelling wafting off my fiance. I’ve been gradually converting him to the dark side, and he appreciates a gourmand twist. It doesn’t hurt that the bottle design is really cool! Thanks for the draw, I’m in the US.

  • I was so glad to hear Sebastian say that he thinks this scent is ‘very,very unisex’, because I think it’s delicious! You can tell this is a favorite of his – and many others, it seems! I’m in the US.

  • What I liked the most of this video is how Sebastian compared Pure Malt to a niche fragrance, because of how unique it is. Besides Pure Malt, I also enjoy Pure Havane a lot! Lastly, I also liked that he introduced me to the cafleurebon site, which seems quite interesting.

  • Fantastic review by Sebastian. I love his channel and all of his in-depth reviews.

    If I were to choose my favorite from Thierry Mugler I think it would have to be Angel.

  • Great review Sebastian. This is my favorite thierry mugler fragrance. I looking forward to try Pure Tonka .
    I live in the U.S.A.

  • I really enjoy all the review about Pure Malt. I know that Sebastian has a very big collection but even so he already consumed two bottles, I think he is drinking Pure Malt to wear 3 bottles of it. My favorite is Pure Havane, but Pure Malt is close behind. 🙂
    I am in the US.

  • Sebastian is always able to describe a fragrance concisely. I don’t own any Mugler fragrances, so I would love to win this prize and add it to my collection. Thank you for the opportunity and good luck to everyone.

  • What I liked most about the review was that he gave a good description of the fragrance. Describing the fruitiness, mixed with the oak and boozy accords, along with the signature Amen/Mugler patchouli note, gave me a good indication of what the fragrance would smell like, and really piqued my interest. Especially since the vanilla note common in bourbons and typical boozy accords would pair perfectly with the kind of spicy, creamy, and decadent rendition of patchouli which Angel and Amen are known for
