Bow Tie, i started watching your channel about six months ago. I am now a true frag head. I went from 10 to 60 bottles. I probably should have started with decants but i blind bought everything. Thanks for getting me into the world of fragrance. Fraghead in Philly!
I own about half of these clones and have gotten more compliments with the clones than I have with the originals. Ministry of Oud Satin Oud being my most complimented.
As a person who only keeps 3 originals at a time of anything I appreciate this review. If you really like to diversify your arsenal like I do, spending 5000 in 12 bottles of cologn is crazy if you just don't have it like that.
I had Oud for Glory, but i sold that to a friend because i ended up grabbing Afnan Supremacy in Oud. That one is a touch sweeter but it’s still a beast!
Yep, baccarat rouge 540 DNA just smells like plastic and hospital equipment upclose to me. I've encountered it on another person though and surprisingly, I though it smelled nice. Reminded me of caramelizing cotton candy with the synthetic smell of food colouring at a fair. CDNIM, CDN Sillage and CDN Milestone are ones I really enjoy on myself.
I appreciate your feedback on the best clone colognes. I've been watching your videos for a while now and I must say everything that you have said about the clone colognes are 100% true. I bought each and every last one of these off of Amazon and only paid between $350 and $400 for all instead of spending $3,000 to 3500. I appreciate the videos bro keep them coming 💯
Of the 10 you mentioned, I have: Oud for Glory Club de Nuit Untold Milestone I also recently bought Barakkat Rouge 540 Extrait and Barakkat Satin Oud from Fragrance World. Both are extremely close to the originals, at least in my opinion Final mention to a great Layton clone (especially considering the price) - Detour Noir from Al Haramain
I love both Milestone and Detour Noir. These two could be someone's entire collection, lol. Milestone for summer and Detour Noir for any other season. Both very well received, unique, classy scent profiles and super cheap.
@@mikooo5408 I personally prefer Untold; Barakkat is a little too heavy on the middle eastern spices for me. Untold is more a clone of BR540 Extrait de Parfum, which for me is nicer than the EDP
Mah Perseus is smoother than craze and under £20 . I prefer it to craze . Although its longevity isn’t as good . Cdnim limited edition is my fave aventus clone . Also try sharaf blend for the angel share it’s the best to date in my opinion. Keep up the fabulous work 👏👏
I returned my bottle of Untold, I might have got a bad batch, but Le BonBon intense is super close to 540. and Cognac D'Ange is extremely close to Angel Share. These are from Montagne
I have "Woody Oud". I can not tell how close it is to Tom Ford's ( I have never smelled it). I will have to take your word for it. But it is not my kind of fragrance, I have worn about halve of the bottle, and I still don't find the amazing smell of it. Just a matter of taste, I understand. However, you mentioned "Oud for Glory". I have it, I love it, I can not recommend it more. Thanks for this video!
Armaf Club De Nuit is the King of Clones right now. I own 2 newer batches of Creed Aventus and I have one bottle of Intense Man EDT, they’re identical after the dry down. I own Millesime Imperial and I own Milestone, Milestone is spot on. I’ve owned BR 540 for a while and was getting low so I pulled the trigger and bought Untold a few days ago..again, they knocked it out of the park. I’m beyond happy with all of my Armaf purchases. I will never waste money on another bottle of Creed again besides Silver Mountain Water and that’s ONLY because that’s literally my #1 favorite fragrance of all time.
@@evgenylanger5632 Lol I was going to say that in my original comment but I felt like I had rambled on long enough. I’ve never tried Sillage but. from research I know it’s been said that that’s one of their most accurate clones but it’s not a 1:1. Many people have said it’s missing the metallic note and a little more floral/fruity than the original SMW
@@LordsNeverWorry32212 Hey may I ask where are you getting your Armaf Colognes from??? Do they have their own site or are you going on different sites to grab them?
Still have the old Club De Nuit bottle. Love that fragrance so much that when my actual Aventus runs out, I probably won't re-up on it and might just stick with CDNIM.
Yup it is. Only problem is I smell it alot in the air in bars or parties especially on older men so it tends to smell like an older uncle would smell. But it does smell good.
Qaed Al Fursan is a very close replica of Nishane Hacivat but i think i like the fact that Al Fursan has a stronger pineapple base ( pineapple is actually one of my favorite fruits😸😸)
I have a friend who owns the Fragrance World version, it lasts ±8 on clothes and projects like a beast. I'd recommend you get it over the Ministry of oud version. I'm jealous because I'm the one who bought it for him😅
Could someone please explain to me why Oud Satin and Frenetic Delicios are supposed to be great? They both smell exactly like baby powder. What am I missing? Two of my biggest disappointments since getting in the fragrance game
Probably because certain fragrances won't suit everybody's taste. The baccarat rouge DNA smells like plastic and hospital equipment to me, but I know that to some people it smells divine. Some people you know may appreciate those fragrances or you can sell it as well. For sure someone thinks you trash is treasure.
Another clone that deserves to be mentioned is “Rare Carbon”. Man what a great clone. It’s a dupe of Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather. It’s super close and it’s a beast. It’ll last all day. I mean 16+ hours.
oh no doubt but difference is Alexandria is still a big jump in price. these aren't hence them being "the best clones" but if you wanna drop some extra $ Alexandria is the way to go@@junboo8730

You’re a legend and don’t you let nobody tell u different
You're a blessing

Welcome to the rabbit hole. No escape now my friend. For me decants are a waste of money and effort if buying clones. I’m with you on that.
I own about half of these clones and have gotten more compliments with the clones than I have with the originals. Ministry of Oud Satin Oud being my most complimented.
What’s the longevity of it?
@@langcameron0pretty good but the barrakat last longer in my skin
Facts!
Because you wear clones more to save the originals?
@TevinC814 I do, but I wear both around the same groups of people (small circle). They have complimented more on the clones than anything.
Mannn!!! I just got that craze and woody oud boy you ain't bullshit'in you my smell good guy
My son wore my untold to school 1 times and I had 2 order 3 more bottles it's a beast 12 plus hours more on clothes the dry down is just awesome.
Thank you sir! You’ve put me on to my entire 40 bottle collection of fragrances so far. Oud Satin Mood being number 1.
Only have one clone in my collection & it’s Milestone. It’s perfection.
I been wearing some bull! Gio, St Laurent, Versace…. I need to step my smell game up fr, thank you for all the new fragrances I had no knowledge of…
Great vid. I appreciate you putting the names on screen and in the comments
Awesome video I’ve ordered 4 of these clones and the FRENETIC DELICIEUSE by far is the best to me thanks for the info we need more of these videos 👍🏾
Bow tie keeps it coming with the “smell goods” 💯👍🏾
Spectre Ghost (Ani), sharaf blend (angels share), Enigma Une (Sauvage Elixir), vintage Radio (Paragon)... They all are amazing replication!! 🙌🏾
I really appreciated the way you broke down when you should purchase clones it really made a lot of sense.
Your Touch by Maison Alhambra captures the true essence of Stronger with you by Emporio Armani
As a person who only keeps 3 originals at a time of anything I appreciate this review. If you really like to diversify your arsenal like I do, spending 5000 in 12 bottles of cologn is crazy if you just don't have it like that.
Here I go clone hunting! Thanks for this review.
I had Oud for Glory, but i sold that to a friend because i ended up grabbing Afnan Supremacy in Oud. That one is a touch sweeter but it’s still a beast!
Al Haramain Amber Oud Ruby Edition is like a more masculine evil twin version of BR540
I bought club da unit intense and first smell is amazing then I cant smell anything at all after that. Maybe my nose is blind to the ambroxan.
I haven't smelled Rouge 540 but I did get a bottle of untold and it smells like sickly sweet bunt synthetic nuts/almonds. Club De nuit is good though.
Yep, baccarat rouge 540 DNA just smells like plastic and hospital equipment upclose to me. I've encountered it on another person though and surprisingly, I though it smelled nice. Reminded me of caramelizing cotton candy with the synthetic smell of food colouring at a fair.
CDNIM, CDN Sillage and CDN Milestone are ones I really enjoy on myself.
Milestone is Pressure!

How well do the clones perform?
Of the 10 you mentioned, I have:
Oud for Glory
Club de Nuit Untold
Milestone
I also recently bought Barakkat Rouge 540 Extrait and Barakkat Satin Oud from Fragrance World. Both are extremely close to the originals, at least in my opinion
Final mention to a great Layton clone (especially considering the price) - Detour Noir from Al Haramain
Those Barakkat bottles are good.
I love both Milestone and Detour Noir. These two could be someone's entire collection, lol.
Milestone for summer and Detour Noir for any other season.
Both very well received, unique, classy scent profiles and super cheap.
Best Layton clone is amber oud bleu exclusif
Which One is the best clone, club de nuit untold or barakkat rouge 540 ?
@@mikooo5408 I personally prefer Untold; Barakkat is a little too heavy on the middle eastern spices for me. Untold is more a clone of BR540 Extrait de Parfum, which for me is nicer than the EDP
Lattafa Vintage Radio 📻 is the clone of Initio Paragon, smells great and their bottles are unique. 👌
Was going to grab this one next. Jomashop has it for $34.99 which is the cheapest I’ve seen thus far.
Great great essentials review when it comes to niche/clones! Keep rockin @BowTieFragranceGuy!
I haven't tried Milestone but I did try Sillage, and Sillage is perfect INOFFENSIVE but attractive scent.
Many blessing to you and your family my brother may this year bring you enjoyment and happiness beyond measure.
Very solid list!
Thanks you are the best man ,, I need to know the best dior homme intense and original alternative
I enjoy craze, I like the almond and vanilla alot.
Al haramain royal stallion may be a little better but it also costs more
Royal Stallion is 🔥 . I may have to try craze
Great video 💯 thanks
Thx bro , you are one of the best mate .
Follower from Algeria 🇩🇿👌🏼
Nice and short details with no going on and on, brilliant reviews thanks for sharing 🙏
Have you checked out any of Yom and layl’s takes on any fragrances ? They are all 🔥🔥🔥 alil more expensive ($85)but are all extrait de parfum
That Dior sweater is tough bro salute.
Mah Perseus is smoother than craze and under £20 . I prefer it to craze . Although its longevity isn’t as good . Cdnim limited edition is my fave aventus clone . Also try sharaf blend for the angel share it’s the best to date in my opinion. Keep up the fabulous work 👏👏
My Man, Daraian rocking the best content as usual
Can u do a review of this Lataffa Asad before i buy it???? I trust ur opinion
10:14 I have Armaf’s Craze Noir. What is the difference between the regular craze versus the Craze Noir version?
Great show again
Where do you get the older bottle of club de nuit intense for men? Would love to have the older bottle.
I returned my bottle of Untold, I might have got a bad batch, but Le BonBon intense is super close to 540. and Cognac D'Ange is extremely close to Angel Share. These are from Montagne
The opening is a little ruff . But once it settled into the mid and dry down untold is very good
Where do you buy these fragrances?
Love the list. Thank you! What about an imagination come? Thanks in advance
I have "Woody Oud". I can not tell how close it is to Tom Ford's ( I have never smelled it). I will have to take your word for it.

What about that Tom Ford lost cherry. Did you find something close to that
Great video as always!
This is a 🔥 video sir!!
Great video. ❤
The best mfk clones are by barakkat.....they are quiet popular here in south Africa.....barakkat 540 and barakkat oud satin are my fav on that line
Im here for this all day long.😅😊
Great Review 👍
Peace n blessings my brother🙏🏻one of the other creed knock off is L adventure.
Do you know the best place to get the older saught after version of aventus?
Maybe I had a bad batch of club de nuit but it was very chemically on my skin even as it dried down
Have you tried anything from the Jo Milano - Game of Spades collection?
Cocktail intense and the zimayA? Clone of angels share are the best
Is there a Tom ford bitter peach clone???
Maison Alhambra Bright Peach it has more of the peach punch than bitter peach but it’s close. It’s very good in its self.
Just ordered bright peach! Will be here on the 18th
Armaf Club De Nuit is the King of Clones right now. I own 2 newer batches of Creed Aventus and I have one bottle of Intense Man EDT, they’re identical after the dry down. I own Millesime Imperial and I own Milestone, Milestone is spot on. I’ve owned BR 540 for a while and was getting low so I pulled the trigger and bought Untold a few days ago..again, they knocked it out of the park. I’m beyond happy with all of my Armaf purchases.

Club de nuit sillage is best silver mountain water clone.
@@evgenylanger5632 Lol I was going to say that in my original comment but I felt like I had rambled on long enough.

@@LordsNeverWorry32212 Hey may I ask where are you getting your Armaf Colognes from??? Do they have their own site or are you going on different sites to grab them?
@@CharlesTurnerTheKing Armaf does’t have a website you have to order from a middle man. I’ve gotten all mine off of Amazon.
Still have the old Club De Nuit bottle. Love that fragrance so much that when my actual Aventus runs out, I probably won't re-up on it and might just stick with CDNIM.
Have you tried sharaf blend zimaya?
Thx from Paris bro 🙏
Are there any clones for Mind Games????
You are awesome thank you
I really would love to have a Carved Oud clone.
Is it stronger than Rare Carbon or is Rare Carbon stronger?
Which one would be closer to Ombre Leather?
Mr. Bowtie I understand there's great clones. Do you wear clone fragrances?
Is there a clone of the aventus cologne
Some very nice clone fragrances here. Can't really dispute it either.
What’s a good Lafayette street clone
I don’t understand how Alexandria Fragrances never makes it to anyone’s list. Those fragrances are amazing!
They are but they are too expensive now
What do you think about acquainted di Parma brands.
I personally think Montblanc Explorer is better than CDNIM and I've owned both
😂😂😂😂 special edition cdnim ain’t even close
Yup it is. Only problem is I smell it alot in the air in bars or parties especially on older men so it tends to smell like an older uncle would smell. But it does smell good.
Explorer is better on the initial sprays(not as harsh) but has no staying power...
Couldn’t find trillium, link takes me to imperium. Any ideas?
Hey need some help. Got Woody oud. Not sure if I have a bad batch. It's not sweet smelling at all. Maybe it's me. It's dry and woody.
It is definitely dry, like the OG. The OG isn't sweet one bit, bro.
What’s that song that you use for the intro? I dig it.👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Just a question. Have you smelled supremacy in oud? I think it's pretty awesome. Suppose to be a dupe of OFG. Any thoughts?
Respectfully if you smell Enigma Deux or Montage Intense, you may very well change your mind about Fire & Desire
Qaed Al Fursan is a very close replica of Nishane Hacivat but i think i like the fact that Al Fursan has a stronger pineapple base ( pineapple is actually one of my favorite fruits😸😸)
My guy thank you
What’s the best Armouge interlude clone in your opinion?
@BowTie FragranceGuy what’s the longevity on the Oud Satin mood clone?
I have a friend who owns the Fragrance World version, it lasts ±8 on clothes and projects like a beast. I'd recommend you get it over the Ministry of oud version.
I'm jealous because I'm the one who bought it for him😅
Hey Bro. two questions for you: 1) What city are you from? 2) Which Oud fragrance do you like the Best between Woody Oud & Oud for Glory
and if I was to purchase both Woody Oud and Oud for Glory, would they smell distinctively different or very similar?
Are the two oud clones that funky oud?
Have you tried the Parfums Vintage version of Millesime Imperial by any chance?
I haven't tried it I am curious how it compares to the Armaf
Could someone please explain to me why Oud Satin and Frenetic Delicios are supposed to be great? They both smell exactly like baby powder. What am I missing? Two of my biggest disappointments since getting in the fragrance game
Probably because certain fragrances won't suit everybody's taste. The baccarat rouge DNA smells like plastic and hospital equipment to me, but I know that to some people it smells divine.

Just like food we all perceive it differently
I just purchased the Lv Afternoon swim I don't like it as much as Lv Imagination
The video starts at 2:56
When yall skip he doesn’t make money just for the impatient “supporters” out there
Anyone know a clone for van cleef and arpels zanzibar?
What about Clive Christian
Another clone that deserves to be mentioned is “Rare Carbon”. Man what a great clone. It’s a dupe of Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather. It’s super close and it’s a beast. It’ll last all day. I mean 16+ hours.
These are not even the best clones. Alexandria have them.
oh no doubt but difference is Alexandria is still a big jump in price. these aren't hence them being "the best clones" but if you wanna drop some extra $ Alexandria is the way to go@@junboo8730
I’m not big on the “leather” scents do any of these give that off
Hey Mr. Bowtie I like that Christian Dior merch where did u get it from
Bro, something beeping in the background. Just a heads up, think you need to fix that.
I know you like Bond No 9, are there any BN9 clones that are close to the OG. (I know you’ll always rock the OG)
Bow tie can you find us a aqua de geo duplicate please
The Tux maison Alhambra is almost a dead on Clone for tuxedo
