PSA to everyone: As a biochemistry undergraduate, there is a science behind why we cant smell certain fragrances as well as others. It all comes down to Organic Chemistry and our bodies varying design in the olfactory system and nuerophysiological condition. Most people will be able to smell scent A whereas some may not be able to smell scent A, but can smell scent B when most cannot smell Scent B. The reason is that our olfactory senses becomes conditioned to our enviroment based on how we grew up and therefore, things that are more familiare to us, we are able to smell it "more" than others. For example, I grew up in a hispanic houshold where my mother would always be cooking with chiles and spices. For this reason, when I go to a resteraunt, im able to pick up more spices and chiles than others in a scent wherase other people can't, or if they do, its just "spicy" to them. The whole point of this is to say this: the more we are experts and trained in the art of perfumery, the better we can smell perfumes in general, even if most people can't. Smelling is a skill that can be improved just like taste is something that can be refined as necessary to be a chef. For this reason, the best "data" to get about a fragrance is to side with the majority of people (who aren't fragrance connisures by ANY means) because they will be able to pick up more of the obvious notes in a scent and say "yeah it smells good/bad". If you ask a fragrance head, they will have a strong biase against a certain note/brand that the scent derives from and you will get a more distorted opinion (so to speak). Think about it, when your average consumer goes to a high-end resteraunt that uses niche quality and ingredients, most will enjoy the meal but wont be "oh i really can taste the 9-month aged burbone on this stake". In fact, many people will dislike the super niche and sophisticated taste in some resteraunts because they are looking for food to eat, not savor it as an art form where you need to detect what ingredients are used in your meal. Likewise, most people will only enjoy a fragrance because it smells good or tasty, not because they can detect a certain note. The whole "ah yes i love the cardamom blended with the tonka bean, very elaborate but subtle" exists only with fragrance heads (people you wont run into every day).
Shit is Strong! This was a scrubber after a sample I hit my hand with. It was still there 12 hours latter even after 2 showers. Cuba had Covid. I ended up buying a full bottle because this is unique.
You know, sometimes fragrances don’t smell the way they are supposed to on their first several sprays. Issey Miyake Pour Homme Fraiche was like that for me. Then, after wearing it for several days, and letting it sit for a week, it blossomed into masterpiece. Give Toy Boy another wear in a few days.
Moschino Toy Boy is also not something I ever thought I would buy, but DAMN its good! I dont know what it is about it, but I love it and im a 35 year old fella.
I get great performance on this one. To me it smells like if you open a can can of pears that are in that sweet syrup stuff. The good news here is that someone was finally willing to put out a fragrance that isn’t exactly like everything else from the last 2 years.
I just bought this from FragranceX this week and I love it already. Doesn’t smell like all the other bullshit blue fragrances we’ve been getting for a while now.
I went ahead & got it after I saw this your review. I got it for $57 so I’m not messed up about it at all. It’s cool. The dry down is good. It doesn’t project as much as I thought however it’s cool for a freshie. I’m happy with it since the bottle is unique & it’s a cool scent. Thanks for the solid review
That bad boy is banger! Super different from everything else out there. The opening is a little all over the place. But the magic happens in the mid & dry down. It actually performed really good on me. A whole work days worth.
To my nose it smells like carolina hererra 212 men mixed with a dark rose. I get the freshly cut grass vibe mixed with violet leaf and rose. Very Unique
Agreed Cuba, not getting beastly performance, but the longevity is definitely good. Just not the projection. But strangely when I first got it one spray was enough to choke me out. Then suddenly it depowered or something? Or maybe I’m anosmic
Great first impression and I enjoyed it and i like this fragrance I give it a nine out of ten and i get good longevity and decent projection and have a blessed night
I’m not going to lie Toy Boy almost knocked me out! I went to Macy’s days ago to smell test different colognes and I just happen to see this freaking unique black bear 🐻 cologne bottle and I’ve been watching reviews about it! I’m a man of cologne and I love smelling good and getting compliments! I can’t describe the smell of this fragrance it’s unique and masculine!
Now you know your wife don't play that, you better get that paper up!! Moschino is nice, I have to get some more wearings. When I tested it at Belk's it was an instant buy for me.
Yo Cuba I just picked this up last week..its a woody and heavy rose fragrance...mainly rose...this shit last 11hrs on my skin...and I dropped the bottle and broke it not even an hour after purchase
Cuba Man, This is Creed Royal Oud on steroids 👑 It's like an intense version of which projects better & last longer than creed 😳 I rarely get any compliments with Creed Royal Oud, but with this I get compliments almost every time & people can't help but asking me what you are wearing today.👍 It's one of the few fragrances in my collection that make people ask about it. Most people would complement my other fragrances, but with this one people wouldn't leave until they ask about it.🤩 You must try it again after a while.
I think the Scent is gorgeous. It is a complex scent but the more I sniff it the more I like it. The performance is there even tho it doesnt seem like it. I LOVE IT 9.5/10! scent community hypes trash scent in my opinion but this one is a show stopper for sure !!!
Why is the Teddy bear ever a problem, real men can love Teddy bears too. Love the fragrance, very unique and it lasted hours on my skin. The dried down is warm and cosy.
To me toy boy is not so strong for an epd is very light. In order to get good protection you should spray like 15 times as a plus against it is too expensive for what you get. Is my humble opinion.
Hahahaha...it's your nose, not a beast but good bubble longevity (7-8 hours), not stinging, not piercing, not agresive...but people smell you perfectly long hours
Is Cuba Rose note blind? He didn't say Rose once on this rose bomb! Dark alluring sugary bouquet of roses laying on the floor on a dark cedarwood cabin in the woods at midnight.

Great comment and very true
Thank you for that 🙏🏽🩵☮️
Toy Boy one of the strongest fragrances I’ve tested in awhile!
Cuba, man, you got COVID! 😭😁 That fragrance is strong and lasts 8+ hours on my skin.
Yup! Took a shower around 730 p.m it's not 9:30 am and I still smell it and i only did two sprays. It's not for me but it definitely lasts long.
@@b.e.r.nnetwork8251 Just our luck …. It lasts forever and we don’t like it. 🤦♂️😆
The scent lasts me 10 hours and just one spray on my arm, my parents can smell it from several feet away the first few hours
Shit is Strong! This was a scrubber after a sample I hit my hand with. It was still there 12 hours latter even after 2 showers. Cuba had Covid. I ended up buying a full bottle because this is unique.
Man I'm rocking this TODAY! I love it, it's beautiful 😍🥰

The John Leguizamo of fragrance 😎
Too Wong foo
Moschino Toy Boy is also not something I ever thought I would buy, but DAMN its good! I dont know what it is about it, but I love it and im a 35 year old fella.
I got a good 7 hours on skin and clothes. 10/10 for compliments and uniqueness
I get great performance on this one. To me it smells like if you open a can can of pears that are in that sweet syrup stuff. The good news here is that someone was finally willing to put out a fragrance that isn’t exactly like everything else from the last 2 years.

man i get 10 plus hrs each time i've rocked it got my set on amazon for like $70 it is more of a fall/winter scent in my opinion .

always love your work.hope you are staying safe and you get good performance out of it. this is one of my favorites in the last one year :)
It’s like a year round fragrance.
To my nose it smells like carolina hererra 212 men mixed with a dark rose. I get the freshly cut grass vibe mixed with violet leaf and rose.
Very Unique
This shit 🔥🔥🔥 especially in this Miami heat. Performs like a beast.
Toy Boy rocks and performs like an all-star.
Finally someone says it smells like candies
You kill me man. one of my favorite channels out there.
“Just swallowed half of it, pause” 🤣🤣🤣 good catch!
The Ladies love this fragrance on me. Nothing but positive compliments.
Agreed Cuba, not getting beastly performance, but the longevity is definitely good. Just not the projection. But strangely when I first got it one spray was enough to choke me out. Then suddenly it depowered or something? Or maybe I’m anosmic
Great first impression and I enjoyed it and i like this fragrance I give it a nine out of ten and i get good longevity and decent projection and have a blessed night
It pops off my skin VERY well. I get a blast of Pear, pink pepper, rose off the top.
Idk mine last and projects really well!!!
“I just swallowed half of it!” *pause* LMFAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I really like this one. And I picked it up for £35/$40 off ebay so I got a pretty decent deal.
I really enjoy this one. Also get great performance from it. Some days it’s just good, some days it’s really strong.
1:41 peeped that custom test strip!
You are true Cuba dude this shit is very light
That pepperyness is the rose coobs

Nothing masculine about this fragrance lol.

Now you know your wife don't play that, you better get that paper up!! Moschino is nice, I have to get some more wearings. When I tested it at Belk's it was an instant buy for me.

Yo Cuba I just picked this up last week..its a woody and heavy rose fragrance...mainly rose...this shit last 11hrs on my skin...and I dropped the bottle and broke it not even an hour after purchase
Damn mannn that’s an L. I broke a bottle that barely had any left and I still felt hella bad haha
One of my new favorites.. I like the fizzyness of it.
Put this in a PDM or MFK bottle and you wouldn’t blink an eye. Shits a masterpiece
Works well in heat

Hey King Lincoln, super review!

So was it to feminine like others say or not to bad cuz I know u don't like fragrances that lean to girly
The homeboy Cuba said they’ve been buying Rochas bottles that look like ass plugs!! 🤦🏻♂️😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!! My boooooyyyy funny ass fuck!!
i get the same!! i have had it for a month and stil dont know what the longevity is! But its really good! everybody is all over the place with this?
Your right that colgne is very expensive! And never pulled the trigger ! More niche fragrances already established for the money 💰
Damn bro. This shits performance is bangin. To many lineas holmes.
too many lineas 😂😂
I think the Scent is gorgeous. It is a complex scent but the more I sniff it the more I like it. The performance is there even tho it doesnt seem like it. I LOVE IT 9.5/10! scent community hypes trash scent in my opinion but this one is a show stopper for sure !!!
I definitely love it bro
Bro you are number 1 hahaha covid 19.. 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Always dropping cool vid ? Wat do you think about naxos 1861
You should redo this review. This thing punches hard! Great performance too. Paid 60 for it. 60 bucks well spent
Why is the Teddy bear ever a problem, real men can love Teddy bears too. Love the fragrance, very unique and it lasted hours on my skin. The dried down is warm and cosy.
WHAT ABOUT SILLAGE, PLS TELL ME
Ask your wife bro..I have the same reaction to mancera instant crush but my wife say its loud and smells awesome
To me toy boy is not so strong for an epd is very light. In order to get good protection you should spray like 15 times as a plus against it is too expensive for what you get. Is my humble opinion.
I really like this fragrance....Toy Boy is nice
thanks for your opinion here! If performance it is questionable for me... Also I do not like the bottle...
What’s good G!! Mega Dave showing love. Praying for you and your family over there bro. It’s wild! Checking out the video now
Hahahaha...it's your nose, not a beast but good bubble longevity (7-8 hours), not stinging, not piercing, not agresive...but people smell you perfectly long hours
I quite enjoyed this but I am still waiting for the price to drop, if it ever will.
Yo cuba , chek out the extraoridnaire line from van cleef & arpels , bois dore seems 2 be interessing
Aye Cuba I copped some of that Teddy Bear juice SON! Amazon $63.58.
i was wondering if u could review anything from the just jack line or the new al haramain br 540 clone called oud amber rouge
Not gonna hold you... I stayed away from this one because of the suspect marketing.
What it's suspect because the marketing is gay? It's 2020 dude.
It's worth the hype worth the $...n yeh performance is good!🤔✔💯🌶🍸
i got a sample of this coming, i have high hopes for it!
Yooohh that happened to me yesterday I couldn't smell my fragrance I thought I had Corona
Why does the rona have anything to do with it lol
Denis Begic that’s a symptom lol loss of smell and taste
Is Cuba Rose note blind? He didn't say Rose once on this rose bomb! Dark alluring sugary bouquet of roses laying on the floor on a dark cedarwood cabin in the woods at midnight.
Looking hawt with that salt & pepper action
It's a spiced rose ... jolly rancher lol it reminds me of ROSE alcane from Aether Parfums cuz of the synthetic metallic green rose vibe. Egh
I agree with the comments it is very strong, but I don't think it smells good AT ALL.
I don't know the decant i got , it smells the room when i spray it.. maybe they reformed this shit already lol
I don't know why I just get a unisex floral vibe from this on my skin.... This is not a ball sprayer
If you put this on and start singing I'm to sexy for my shirt to sexy it hurts you then have some problems 🤣😂
Can ma buoy review moschino uomo?
smelt great on opening, got cloyingly sweet syntheic sickning. HARD PASS!
MFK 'A La Rose' > YSL 'Ultimate' > 'Toy Boy'
Sounded just like Westside Gunn lol
It honestly last long and smells strong I don’t like it, honestly on my skin smells like a strong feminine perfume
Recently I started spraying all my fragrances on my clothes. My skin is a sponge.
Ive heard mosturizing helps that, idk if you do often or not but that's just what I've heard lol.
Erik Javick doesn’t work for me
Smells like a sweet hamster cage
Most people say rose
Whats the name of the track at the end???
I wanna know myself...that shitz 🔥
LATE?!!! LLLAAAAAATTTEEE???!!! 🤯
This shit smells like someone melted a Barbie in the microwave... 😆😂😁
It’s stupid strong and lasts for hours.
