    Another French fragrance that is inexpensive but sophisticated & well made is Coriandre by Jean Couturier. I seriously bought a bottle in the past year for $18. It’s a Chypre so not for everyone but I like it.

    There is a reason why I have four bottles of Bentley for Men Intense. It's a great fragrance. Another great frag that smells expensive is Mercedes Club Black (which I know you already have).

      Mercedes Club Black is feminine but Bentley for Men Intense is in my top 5 fragrances, its so niche and boozy

    Michael Jordan Legend, a surprise cheapie and a recent pickup. The coffee/woods/lavender aroma is actually quite good and if you happen to own Molecule 01, layer it with this. Comes out as an amazing combo, like a stronger more lasting version of Rochas Man.

    • @shave-a-thon3415
      @shave-a-thon3415 Год назад +2

      I'm not sure about the recent versions, but I bought Legend from Perfumania around 6 or 7 years ago, and I get pretty good performance from it. It's reminiscent of my more expensive Polo Red Extreme. Perfumania's Parlux subsidiary owned the rights to the Jordan line and I think I bought it for $10 back then.

    I enjoyed wearing Rochas "Moustache EDP" two days ago. It can be purchased for a good price. To this kind of list, I'd add: Paco Rabanne "Ultrared Man", Moschino "Toy Boy", and Dunhill "Icon". Have you tried "Ultrared Man"? I like it myself.

    I bought 4711 Wakening Woods of Scandinavia (longest name ever) about 2 months ago and LOVE it. Its a cousin to Chanel Paris-Edimburg and it lasts a long time on my skin. Great buy. Many of the 4711 colognes are fun, wearable and great price/value.

  • @SamWayne85
    @SamWayne85 Год назад +3

    Make sure if anyone else goes for Moustache, get the edp as wasn't mentioned in the video. The original and the edp have almost the same bottle but they smell completely different. The ysl tuxedo version is the edp. Food for thought

  • @funeka691
    @funeka691 Год назад +5

    I don't have any budget type fragrances. But I do have some inexpensive niche fragrances that smell more expensive than they really are, my favourite being the Attar Collection fragrances - I have about 5 of them.

  • @criticalPhase
    @criticalPhase Год назад +4

    Thank you for commenting on the unisex potential of the Bentley fragrance! I've been curious about that and wanting to pick up a boozy fragrance, so I might give it a try.

  • @tspencer661
    @tspencer661 Год назад +1

    Thank you for your videos. I’m new to exploring fragrance. I’ve been interested for about three months. So many fragrance channels primarily focus on expensive fragrances. As someone who wants to get into fragrances, spending hundreds of dollars on a scent seems scary. I’m so glad that you are highlighting inexpensive scents. I told my friend that I’m going to be queen of the dupes. (I recently ordered a discovery set from Oakcha.). Now, I can be queen of the cheapies, too. If I want to try the real deal, I’ll order a small decant. I recently watched your video of you with The Nose Knows. You two cracked me up.😆 It was so good to see how the two of you LOVE your cheapies. Thanks for the great video.

  • @iahorvath
    @iahorvath Год назад +1

    I would add to your list: Cabotine by Grès. It’s a French pharmacy perfume that used to be a high end product but that somehow got downscaled at some point. I get so many compliments when I wear it. It’s fresh and floral, great as a summer scent.

    Big fan here of Perles de laliqu. used to be one of my signature scents 13-15 years ago & I only stopped using it back then because some batches started to smell a bit sour & salty.

    Anotheer great list. I'm making a promise to myself to finally dive into some of the 4711 fragrances this summer. They have so many that it can be a bit daunting to jump into the house. Thankfully, you and I seem to share similar tastes so I'll certainly be considering your picks from this video as well as some others from your longer 4711-focused video.

    Jaipur Homme is an amber spicy fragrance from Boucheron. It’s perfumed by Annick Menardo, and it’s beauty and price point make it arguably the best buy in all of perfumery. I have the EDP, but I’ve heard that the EDT is also excellent.

  • @raulsaavedra709

      I'd like for you to stop by my perfume studio so I can show you what absolutely horrible smells like. Like literally a goat in heat at the barnyard captured in perfume form smells absolutely horrible. But Bentley For Men Intense is horrible? And the reason it's overhyped is that it freaking smells great. I mean if you don't like this stuff why bother watching fragrance reviews? I don't get it. And while we are at it what exactly do you consider amazing smelling? And what do you consider xpensive smelling?
