I love your videos. I saw this one (full 3.4oz new bottle) on Costco the other day for 159 dollars USD I was tempted to nab it but didn't due to all the exaggerated criticism of it online. I should have watched this video first. Because now that sale viking cologne is gone
I grabbed it for 139.99, too good of a deal to pass up. Worse case scenario I can just return it, but I doubt I will need to. Haven’t smelled anything from creed that I wouldn’t wear so far.
Thanks for this, Manny. I have really been looking for someone to review this one because I’m such a fan of the original. I appreciate your always honest and thorough insights. Awesome.
After a couple of wears, I really started to appreciate OG Viking. Then my decant ran out. I'd buy a full bottle if only it cost a little less. Even in Europe, the price seems unjustified, or I'm not that big of a fan. Great review as always. Love the honesty!
Great vid,review & keeping it 💯 bro. I’ll wait to see how this is on my skin a few times before I commit since I was t thrilled by Aventus cologne and that price is steep lol
Great video Manny!! I am a Huge fan of the house of Creed!! Viking is Fantastic on my skin! Looking forward to the experience of Viking Cologne! onelove 👊🏿
Great review man! I just picked this up for £156 GBP at John Lewis. Wasn’t even on my radar until I wandered over to the creed boutique. Well after a spray I bought the bottle. Really like what they have done here, I don’t get all this hate upon it either 🤷🏻♂️ haters gonna hate!
Well reviewed Manny! I like the feedback rebranding. Been using that term for years so I'm glad it's catching on. The next iteration will be "honest" feedback, because who can really tell eh? 😄 Cheers.
My brotha…long time fam hope all been well.Been a min.I don’t always get to comment because sometimes I listen while I’m in the car or working,getting ready etc.I see you though 👀👀 Always hold it down brotha.Excellent content as always.I’m digging this one.Just copped it today as a matter of fact for my peeps that’s getting married wedding gift.After frag shopping in Europe a few times where Creed is literally half off what it is in the US,plus the VAT tax refund I get for spending 175 euros or more for non EU residents in Paris in particular.I promised myself to never Pay those ridiculous American prices lol…But I went on ahead and bit the bullet for my friends wedding.Steep but it’s all good.One of my oldest best friend.But for myself?Never again fam haha.Europe only for Creed or discount sites lol.Bless up fam.Much Love/Peace
Thanks for your opinion on that flanker. From the bottles I purchased with a 20-something batch code, only Aventus came cellophane-wrapped. GIT and MI came unwrapped. Same with VIW (19R01, 19Z01). I have yet to receive a 21-coded batch. What I did get with recent purchases were official samples of Viking Cologne (9820M01), and they didn't wow me. Fragrances don't need to be complex or edgy to be interesting, but this smelled like boring designer-type stuff to me.
At times this reminds me of elements of Terre d’Hermes and Declaration d’Un Soir by Cartier. However, the aforementioned fragrances are excellent, iconic, staples in any collection, but this one not so much. Now is this a good fragrance? Yes. Better than the original? Definitely not. While Aventus Cologne wasn’t a huge departure from the original, Viking Cologne bears little resemblance to Viking, and not in a good way. I would only buy this if it was heavily discounted which won’t be happening anytime soon, otherwise just stick with the original. Rating 6/10
I don't care about lasting power. All I care is how a fragrance smells and this and the original are both mediocre. So many beautiful fragrances out there that never get a mention.
The original Viking with the discounted bottle was good…retail not!….By the way, review my favorite brand…Bortnikoff…Try Moss Cologne…..Ashton reviewed 12 but not Moss Cologne….I like it…..However, I’ve also heard mixed opinions….most positive.
I haven't watched this whole video yet -- but my sample of this was awwwwwwwwwful!!!! Maybe 55 and older in the certain situation......maybe. yuck Edit: I'm talking about the first Viking put out.
Content is 100k subscriber worthy, at least.
I'm flattered! Thank you so much! =]
@@CascadeScents agreed bro, very quality content. You Filipino btw Manny? Salamat
...until he stops making videos...
Great video brother and I enjoy watching your review. Creed broken my heart with creed Viking cologne ugh . I love creed Viking OG 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Salute, fam! Thank you so much! =]

You're welcome and thank you so much! Hope I helped.
Which cologne flanker did it better Aventus cologne or Viking cologne
I prefer Viking Cologne to Viking, and Aventus to Aventus Cologne. =]
What about at the cost of $200 for the 100ml/3.3oz ? Should you do it ?
Always, great reviews/content..... What it do, Manny? I think I'll still with OG. Keep em coming bruh💪"THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
Thank you so much, fam! =]
I really like your video editing and smoothness of your speach! Great job!

Top tier reviewer right here! 🔥🙏🏼
Great Review🔥, can‘t wait to check that one out. I dont like the OG Viking as much as i like SMW, Aventus or MI. Maybe that one works better for me 👍🏼
Thank you so much! Hope you enjoy it! =]

Cool review. I actually like the new Viking Cologne better than the original Viking. Much more mass appeal. I love the mandarin.
Yay! I am not alone. Thank you so much! =]
Have my bottle on order🏝🍊👌🏼
Hope you enjoy it! =]

I’ve always like the original. I’d be excited to try this out.
Hope you enjoy it, fam! =]
My SOTD and already growing on me...Also, I bought mine from the New York Creed Boutique and it was NOT wrapped in cellophane!
Good to know, Nick. Thank you so much! =]
Is Creed selling the 120 mil bottles again? I thought they stopped that
On the box and sticker shown in this video it says 100 ml.
Negative. =]
Anyone know where this guy went? He had pretty good content and with no notice, just kind of disappeared…

Damn. I need to smell this. Assuming it's not available in retail here yet
Hopefully it will be available domestically soon, yes! =]
You should react to GQ Henry Golding / Jeezy / The Kid LAROI / Conan Gray and Vince Staples 10 things can't live without.
Wondering how come you omit the “m” when saying parfum or is that an accent 😬
Oh no! Where did you go?
I don't care about lasting power. All I care is how a fragrance smells and this and the original are both mediocre. So many beautiful fragrances out there that never get a mention.

Wishing I bought a bottle of the OG before these price hikes.
Hard out here for a G, ugh. =[

Be honest: are you Ryan from Ryan’s Toy Reviews from the future who went back to the past to do fragrance reviews?
Dankest comment ever, hahahaha.
Hey forum 🙋
Creed aren't for me but I'm always open to an offering working for me , great to hear your thoughts on this one 🍀
Thank you so much, fam. Cheers! =]
RIP Manny…
RIP
RIP Manny.
I will be back this week.
Fam why yall trying to kill him off?
@@CascadeScents No...you won't.
No you won’t :)
Smells great but if you buy retail you are drunk 🥴
In North America, yeah. It's hard out here for a G. :P
I haven’t smelled Viking or Viking cologne but I’ve heard they aren’t even close to each other. Also I’ve heard Viking cologne was no good lol
Hope you try both soon! =]
@@CascadeScents I will probably get samples eventually but from what I’ve heard on reviews I’m not a huge fan of that style fragrance
It's not a must have but very unique and worth sampling👍
this fragrance is poo no cap
