The format for your videos as far as showing the bottle,putting the names on the screen with some notes included and what kind of fragrance it is,MUCH RESPECT J, YOU MOST DEFINITELY DO VIDEOS RIGHT, keep up the GREAT work my man,it's much appreciated.... AMOUAGE Imitation Man huh,I'm gonna sample that one....
Based upon your taste, I strongly suggest you try House Of Sillage N.001. You will shake your head from side to side in disbelief of how good it is. It is a cooler weather scent.
Really good list, quite some unique picks, superb overview on all the fragrances and the mention that niche is not a blind buying game, it is all about finding what you really love and appreciate. Naxos is my absolute favorite, I find it quite versatile and in warmer weather it smells fantastic with incredible creaminess and even some freshness, after all it suppose to reflect Sicily, very special scent for special occasion. Cheers.
What about menditorosa....slumberhouse....roma profumun. Fragance du bois.. and ofcourse thameen. Is the house somes steps aheadon niche side....super hi quality housese????
Cedro di Taormina is criminally underrated and never talked about on youtube. It is one of my very favorite scents as well!! Two thumbs up for having that on this list!! Edit: ADP, my fav house, twice on this list! Also Xerjoff, my 2nd fav house twice. Impressive my man! Creed is also in my top 5 houses!
Excellent lineup! Everyone has great lists but this comes closest to my tastes, and I own each one as well... except for your #1 Lyric Man which I blind bought and felt it was feminine (I dont mind) and smells to me like a rose flavored balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing so I traded it. Roses that work for me so far are: Matriarch Kazimi, Rasasi Al Wisam Day, and Ensar Oud Borneo Zen. I'd like to try Portrait of a Lady.
Lmao! Was getting ready for work and I quickly went through your list with watching in its entirety during my break in mind. Lighting made the bottles look similar. Sooo... Imitation Man eh? I'll sample it. No more Amouage blind buys for me cough Bracken cough Lyric. Love Epic, Jubi, and Interlude though!
Great list I also smelled os by creed first and I'd my first one also amouage my face house got to get jubilation I have Interlude and reflection so far
Imitation by Amouage is definitely outstandingly good. I bought the woman's version and I am planning on buying the men's version too (and I am a female). They are soooo special and sooo luxe and original - both of them... Good choice!
Recently smelt ADP Oud, holy shit it's great, and gonna buy as soon as I can, is just one of the best oud frags out there, projects like a monster for about 8 hours, and its versatility is way bigger than I would imagine, damn.
I love all of the aqua di Parma dark bottles. I don’t get Creed Aventus - it reminds me of a beastlier D&G Light blue. Love The xerjoff picks. Great content. Cheers.
Great review and I am enjoying your video, how you are doing explanation is very nice. I love Acqua Di Parma Colonia Oud Intense and whenever I am wearing it I am feeling happy and comfortable, refreshing my mind, love...love...love....this house is the best niche house.
Maybe you could do a top 20 for life 2 part series designer/reasonably priced and niche/pricey lux fragrances? For 2020/21 since you have downsized by a lot by now.
Great review my friend ¡¡¡ have 5 of these. The two xerjoff 's, layton, jubilation and the king. Also love ADP but do not have the ones you mentioned. I chose Fico di amalfi over cedro and colonia leather over colonia oud. The other is the masterpiece essenza. I would have to try imitation for sure. Keep the great work.
My Top 10: -Creed - Aventus -Creed - Green Irish Tweed -Creed - Silver Mountain Water -Creed - Millesime Imperial -Creed - Erolfa -Creed - Original Santal -Creed - Original Vetiver Yk what, im good with just 7
Viliam G Bagpiper it all comes down to opinion honestly. Erolfa first off, i absolutely LOVE!! In the climate where i live it projects absolutely amazingly and the spices blend beautifully with the melon notes. Im on my 2nd bottle now. -SMW im not crazy about personally, but its *NEVER* failed to get me unsolicited compliments from females which makes it work for me. Now Millesime Imperial to me, minus the performance issues is so great i dont even mind decanting to re-apply, this time of yr it is perfection. Original Santal, behind Aventus is my 2nd favorite Creed ever. I simply adore the scent. The cinnamon compliments the sandalwood and vanilla/tonka perfectly. I love it and will always have it in my collection. Im in my 3rd bottle now. Virgin Island Water is a pleasant fragrance ive sampled off a decant before but overall i did not enjoy it. The coconut note to me makes it smell identical to tanning lotion. I gave it away. Royal Oud i also found pleasant but not a true Oud scent to me. I found it, rather floral which is not my vibe. It just comes down to personal opinion and how it performs for you
yes in some middle eastern countries they use oud at summer but in a controlled environment...air conditioners is everywhere thats why its easy there to use oud no matter what time of the year it is...some countries have no winter at all :D
Nice dismount, starting with the "disclaimer" all the way through the finish. Good looking out for those who would get butthurt, that sounds waaaaayy to uncomfortable...such a great guy 😂 Hell of a list, now off to blind buy $3k worth of smell good, thanks J!
I think that when the fragrance become more safe and everybody love it, it will be more far of niche .. And for that more mass appealing will be not on the niche side will make science
Too Funny !!! Stevie wonder... Sux xerjoff reformulated a good couple of their bangers .bc.I wanted them ! Also... Can't believe Naxos was 2 You use to sleep with that thing lol Be safe on your 9 month voyage Awesome list diverse and one of the best I've seen
Surprised to see Cedro beating Renaissance 😳. Hope to see that Imitation Man in the shop this weekend so I can test it. And too bad because the sole Xerjoff distributor here had closed shop without restocking Naxos so still have not tried it yet.
John Wen Some fragrances works well in all season ex. Dior Sauvage, Tdh edt. Though if ur referring a cologne for winter that can work in summer I suggest CK one Shock. It can work but only on climate controlled area like a mall or ac work place
Yes! I discovered it during a 108 degree Fahrenheit July day in Texas. I sampled a bit at a Neiman Marcus and when i was out in the Sun the Lavender and Orange shined beautifully together, its not the least bit cloying! Its worth sampling

Creed git was my first creed and it hooked me. Plus the music in these older videos is fire!
Great list and I enjoyed it and I'm gonna try some of these fragrances
What about menditorosa....slumberhouse....roma profumun. Fragance du bois.. and ofcourse thameen. Is the house somes steps aheadon niche side....super hi quality housese????
Acqua di Parma also my favorite niche house!!
Tariq Qayyum same dude, by far my favourite.

-Creed - Millesime Imperial
-Creed - Erolfa

thank you for this video, do you know any good white floral niche beside Reflection Man Amouage?
I think that when the fragrance become more safe and everybody love it, it will be more far of niche .. And for that more mass appealing will be not on the niche side will make science
Holy shit i thought i was the only one who liked imitation man!!! My 3rd fav amouage after jubi and journey!! Great list!
Too Funny !!!
Stevie wonder... Sux xerjoff reformulated a good couple of their bangers .bc.I wanted them !
Also...
Can't believe Naxos was 2
You use to sleep with that thing lol
Be safe on your 9 month voyage
Awesome list diverse and one of the best I've seen
Interesting list! Have to check out imitation. Great work.
Surprised to see Cedro beating Renaissance 😳. Hope to see that Imitation Man in the shop this weekend so I can test it. And too bad because the sole Xerjoff distributor here had closed shop without restocking Naxos so still have not tried it yet.
Great list! I also love italian perfumery.
whats the clone of naxos in designer line anyway? great job bro!
J-ROYL I have pure havane! It's quite nice, but I don't think it's that good actually..
J-ROYL well, fair enough lol
Alexandria fragrance
You had me at buttery vanilla. And then when you mentioned ebony....that was it. O? yes.
I thought no fragrance RUclipsr would ever pick up Creed Original Santal ❤️.
you should get your hands on others niche houses like mancera, montal, initio etc
Man.... now I'm really going to have to get my nose on Imitation. Our noses are similar.... if you love it I probably will too.
👍 list, my top 1 would be Uden.
Man we have very different lists lol.... but I like yours because now I have things I need to smell
What's your #1
There should be PDM “Herod” on the list
is there any cold frag also work and shine in hot summer worth mention?
EX : Creed Original santal in Hot , does it work ??
Tks J
John Wen Some fragrances works well in all season ex. Dior Sauvage, Tdh edt. Though if ur referring a cologne for winter that can work in summer I suggest CK one Shock. It can work but only on climate controlled area like a mall or ac work place

Awesome awesome list Stevie Wonder this bottle I (see) what you did their 😂😂
Btw nice shirt bro!
Nice!
So funny how people hate on Layton because it smells too good
Michael McDonald worth the money ?
That Acqua di parma was a new one for me :-)
What? No Montale?
No Kilian tho!
Guessed the top 2 :)
That Layton tho
"You're welcome!" 😂
Thanks for repeating the names and holding the bottle up
NOT FIRST, ....third.
Right, bit of honesty here, how much did that list sting you for. $¥£€
J-ROYL James I'm happy to be blissfully ignorant, even the empty bottles would be expensive I guess.
You very nice
I'm not cool enough to afford most of these. Back to the mall for me.
Throw out the rest? Why bro? Courier them to me here in India 😅
No MFK?!?! No Le Labo?!?! I am BUTT HURT!!!
👍
Amatuer af, this guy needs to shut down the channel and go find something that he can be good at.
Great list
Great list.great video
