Parfums de marly- Carleslie and atkinsons - The other side of Oud. Everytime i spray one of this two i get Tons and tons of compliments. Out of my over 200 Scents, this two are far more ahead reaction wise.
I rocked Creed Green Irish Tweed in a suit for my promotion interview beings a classic look calls for a classic scent...needless to say I got the gig 😎👍
I wore PDM Herod to work last Friday, and my cowroker complimented me how great I smell. She even commented that she can smell me “even through the face mask.”
Even when I wear blue fragrances, I don't wear for the people around me, but for myself... That being said, Or Intemporel by Lalique got me compliments every time I wore it (I wear it only dressed up)
Legend Spirit. No question. Don't particularly like it, don't particularly like MYSELF wearing it, but I have to give it props for drawing attention. Summer through winter. For a teenage guy, I would consider it a wardrobe staple.
See...I hear SO many different reviews from folks on Red Tobac. I'm just gonna grab a decant. Been wanting to try it for so long. I just keep hearing how much of a "chemical mess" it is. I'm truly not a fan of oud at all, so there's that.
João Carneiro try Red Tobacco it’s different than the TF. I would say it’s more ashy 🤷♂️ to my nose it’s a more ashy tobacco but it’s a powerhouse fragrance Red Tobacco beast freaking mode. PDM Herod is in my opinion a more mass appealing version of Red Tobacco so try those 2 Red Tobacco and Herod.
Green Irish Tweed is my signature fragrance...love love love it. The one I wear for compliments are myself is Tom Ford Tobacco Vannille. For all the Niche snobs that say it's not "niche" I don't care 🤷♂️
@@bryanlynch3623 niche isnt a smell or price tho, a niche fragrance is a fragrance made by a brand that exclusively make fragrances, Tom Ford makes clothing so no matter what the fragrance is it's considered designer
PDM Layton has one of best opening in perfume industry but the dry down is polarizing. I prefer PDM Layton Exclusif which has same opening with intoxicating, not very animalic dry down
Nishane Ani and Hacivat Aaron Terence Hughes Blood Orange Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blance Initio Oud for Greatness Strangers Parfumerie Salted Green Mango I own around 30 fragrances but these are the ones that garnered me compliments.
Awesome viddy Ash! Mancera Aoud Vanille, Gravitas Pour Homme, and Penhaligon’s Sartorial are 3 off the bat that I can think of that people notice and will compliment. Sartorial especially. Be well Ash! 👍
I have worn Adventus and several copies of it and have never received a compliment, however almost everytime I wear Oud Ispahan I recieved compliments.
I've recently had the opportunity to smell quite a few niche fragrances. The Harmonist Magnetic Wood is INCREDIBLE and I didn't need compliments, I knew I smelled amazing. I need to get a full bottle soon. I also got to try Aventus and honestly, the clones I've smelled/own don't do the original justice. Aventus is incredible. Got to smell Green Irish tweed didn't do it for me. It smells nice but not my vibe. I haven't had the opportunity to smell anything from the other houses you mention but I hope to one day.
LeLabo another 13 for me. It's overpriced for what it is and it doesn't wow me but everytime I wear it a woman asks me what I'm wearing. I've gotten stopped in the supermarket, by receptionist when I walk into a office and the list goes on.
PdM Herod is probably my go to, though thats equally for me as much as the girls in my friend circle. Easily the most popular of my collection with them.
@@HamuelTheGrey I love herod smells like a nice Cuban cigar. I've never smelled Carlisle so i cant say if i like it or not. Layton smells more like a orange flavored soda to me than vicks vapo rub.
Hi Ashton, I would add Oajan for fall and winter and Foconero for spring and summer. Oajan is just a better, rounder version of Ambre Narguille (which I used to have before it was released). Foconero is a nice niche take on Fierce (like no other). I also get compliments with L'Humaniste and Figuier Eden in the summer. All of the above are my favorites and I would wear them compliments or not :) PS If not 540, I would put Petit Matin before Masculin Pluriel, as well as Enchanted Forest before Bleecker Street. But that's me :)
@@csvfsev1450 and it has a lot fewer wearings than some of my personal favorites. But then again I have a couple of regular compliment givers who both gave Roja's Elysium Parfum Cologne a "meh it's okay." A lot has to do with skin chemistry and the personal tastes of those around you and mine seem to lean towards liking the thicker heavier scents.
@@AlexanderGeorge not if you will spend most of the time in the heat of the daytime, but if it cools in the evening then I would recommend wearing it. (I had a blind date one evening in August in Southern California...daytime was about 30 degrees C but the evening cooled to about 22 C. She loved it).
I would say Herod is probably my most complimented niche fragrance. And i just dont like Layton exclusif, smells to me like an old english lady fragrance..
I still own Pegasus, but don’t enjoy it. So I’m just hanging onto it because it’s one of those bangers that everyone hypes. I’m hoping I get it to grow on me.
Its Autumn almost Winter and cold so most of your list would not suit, so I'll go for Killian Black Phantom, Ani Nishane, Initio Side effect, Carlise and Herod PDM, 34 Boulevard St Germain EDP Diptyque, Musc Ravageur Frederic Malle and Amouage Overture Man.
I need your help men, i have smell jubilation 25 and I like it, i need a everyday fragrance, i have not smell pdm layton , which one should I buy? Please help I can just buy one
My list would probably look exactly like this too lol... own every single one except for Aoud Lemon Mint and Masculin Pluriel and they're both on the to get list so! Samples of them coming in any day now so i can decide which one i get first!
My wife despises Layton and I have to say I’m not much of a fan either. I don’t get the sweetness in it at all. I’ve gotten some Gallivant fragrances recently and London is getting a lot of compliments. The cucumber note with leather is a lovely balanced combination, unusual and intoxicating.
Has anyone heard of 'Etourdi' from the house of Joliot Descartes? I purchased this niche (?) fragrance is a retail outlet in the greater Toronto area in Canada and I find it to be amazing - very similar to Dior Sauvage. Excellent in many ways. I can't seem to find it on the usual discounter websites and have found very little about on it online.
Hey I was wondering if I should get the intense version of Soir. I know sometimes the intense version changes up the scent not just making it stronger. Any suggestions either way?
Still Life in Rio - Olfactive Studio, is my go to summer niche "show off", not really office friendly but just throws you back to hot summer nights ;-) And I agree African Leather is amazing for fall!
Hey what do you think about (oil perfumery) i have seen them on my ads pop up in my RUclips and I took a look at it and it seems interesting I thought it was just put it in a sample size but it is really made from oil and there copying the smell any thought about it ?
When I'm looking for compliments I wear Layton, Pegasus or Herod. What can I say I love PDM.
PDM has some great compliment pullers
Ashton Creed's Aventus is a stellar compliment beast
When I wear Back to Black it pull numerous compliments and turn Heads
Carlisle?
Carlisle is a beast also for compliments. If you wear it with a leather jacket in winter it’s perfect .
Parfums de marly- Carleslie and atkinsons - The other side of Oud. Everytime i spray one of this two i get Tons and tons of compliments. Out of my over 200 Scents, this two are far more ahead reaction wise.
For compliments I go for Mancera Cedrat Boise.
Summer/ spring compliments...
1. Elysium
2. Hacivat
3. G.i.t.
Winter/autumn
1. Spice and wood
2. Tobacco vanille
3. Naxos/herod/side effect
All year round compliments
1. Reflection man
2. Viking
3. Layton
Hy,
Do you think that can I use Layton in summer time? Worth the price? What about Pegasus ?
Mine is mancera cedrat boise, I personally don't like it much, but people around me, especially ladies love it...
I rocked Creed Green Irish Tweed in a suit for my promotion interview beings a classic look calls for a classic scent...needless to say I got the gig 😎👍
I wore PDM Herod to work last Friday, and my cowroker complimented me how great I smell. She even commented that she can smell me “even through the face mask.”
I'm not a big oud fan but Aoud Lemon Mint is one of the handful of scents with out that I do enjoy. Very fresh, specially in the opening
Mancera Aoud Violet is a fragrance I fell in love with and wear just for myself but it has garnered many a compliments for me.
The one I wear to impress is xerjoff accento. It is very rare that i do, but when i do it sure does get attention!
Even when I wear blue fragrances, I don't wear for the people around me, but for myself... That being said, Or Intemporel by Lalique got me compliments every time I wore it (I wear it only dressed up)
Legend Spirit. No question. Don't particularly like it, don't particularly like MYSELF wearing it, but I have to give it props for drawing attention. Summer through winter. For a teenage guy, I would consider it a wardrobe staple.
I must say that Layton gave me many compliments. But the most number of compliments I got from Mancera red tobacco.
That one is a clone of PDM Carlisle.
What kind of Tobaco it has? I hated TF Tobaco Vanille because it was Pipe Tobaco and i cant stand it
Seriously? MRT is strong like Ox. Sprayed my carpets and they smelled mighty fine for 20 years
See...I hear SO many different reviews from folks on Red Tobac. I'm just gonna grab a decant. Been wanting to try it for so long. I just keep hearing how much of a "chemical mess" it is. I'm truly not a fan of oud at all, so there's that.

Tom Ford oud wood is one I hated on tester but loved it when a friend wore it & it smelled amazing . Had to get it myself
Put it in an atomizer and spray every 2 hours
Congratulations on 500k subscribers 🎉🎉🎉
Green Irish Tweed is my signature fragrance...love love love it. The one I wear for compliments are myself is Tom Ford Tobacco Vannille. For all the Niche snobs that say it's not "niche" I don't care 🤷♂️
It's niche ! But try Manera Aoud Vanille.
I wear black orchid
Tom Ford is a designer brand tho, not niche
@@trevor4685 I agree that he makes designer fragrances, but his Private blends are of niche quality and niche price😁

Nishane Ani and Hacivat
Aaron Terence Hughes Blood Orange
Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blance
Initio Oud for Greatness
Strangers Parfumerie Salted Green Mango
I own around 30 fragrances but these are the ones that garnered me compliments.
I love Eight & Bob the original and Marc Antoine Barrois B683 and Ganymede. Awesome stuff.
Memo Paris is so underrated. I feel like nobody talks about their fragrances. Super high quality imo.
Out of all I get compliments every time I wear Platinum Egoiste but I like to layer it with something not to contrasting. Thanks for your list.
I have old-school Egoiste. It's fantastic.
That's designer...
Roma Acqua Viva, MFK Aqua Universalis, Creed EROLFA work as well in the GA winter weather
Roja parfums Elysium gets me most positive compliments then entitling else. Very nice list and review as always.

Layton and Cedrat Boise get a lot of positive feedback for me
Oud satin mood always works 😊
Reflection Man. A niche Corn Taco.
Great list and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try them and have a blessed day
I blind bought layton just because everyone said it's amazing. I think it's nice in safest way possible.
Yeah it’s not wowing. Fresh pines / Vicks vapor with a pinch of vanilla
Herod = King
why does this not project alot bruv? :( does stay in the skin really long though
What about tom ford tobacco vanille? how are the performance these days?
PdM Herod is probably my go to, though thats equally for me as much as the girls in my friend circle. Easily the most popular of my collection with them.
MFK Grand Soir, Creed Aventus and Tom Ford Noir Extreme.
Grand soir is underrated. Can almost grantee a compliment when I wear it
Nishane - Hacivat
I had to sell 3 of my other fragrances to buy a back up bottle. Holy grail.
PDM Layton. People love it on me and i like the compliments. Not my favorite pdm but its a very nice fragrance that gets the most compliments.
What’s your favorite one
@@HamuelTheGrey pegasus is my favorite
I don’t understand the hype for Layton and Carlisle... there’s a Vick’s Vapo rub that I can’t get past
I have Herod that settles down to a smooth unique ashy tobacco i like
@@HamuelTheGrey I love herod smells like a nice Cuban cigar. I've never smelled Carlisle so i cant say if i like it or not. Layton smells more like a orange flavored soda to me than vicks vapo rub.
Mancera Aoud Lemon Mint great scent, long lasting and sillege.
I wish all fragrances performed like it

Do you use Pegasus at summertime?
@@xportlife every other season yes but not in summer time
@@parvan89 thank you so much brol...I wanna buy but I'm in doubt between Pegasus and Layton and which one suits better in summer
@@xportlife Layton is better for summer but if is really hot like 35°C will go with something different from PDM like Percival or different house
@@parvan89 thank you so much. 🤙
Nice list, half of which I never heard of. Always learning something new here.
I will check out African Leather
What about Michael Jordan eu de toilette?
Secretions Magnifique by Etat Libre d’Orange - compliment monster, beautiful scent 🌸
...it's not hideous actually, pretty meh and boring. Rein Intense Incense, on the other hand, from the same house, will get you kicked out of places.
I wear PDM Layton and Parfums Vintage Game Time.
Im looking for a niche version of Stronger with you intensely. who knows?
closest one is replica by the fire place
Great video , this is a reminder I have to add African Leather to my collection
I would say Herod is probably my most complimented niche fragrance. And i just dont like Layton exclusif, smells to me like an old english lady fragrance..
What's the closest clone you know of (that you'd recommend) for PDM Herod?
Have you tried Lamar frm the Kajal line or anything frm the house?
Hey Ash, I am not a huge fan of creed aventus but I get lots of compliments from girls with it
How do you do this everyday??
It is like ground hog day
I still own Pegasus, but don’t enjoy it. So I’m just hanging onto it because it’s one of those bangers that everyone hypes. I’m hoping I get it to grow on me.
I wear YSL Y EDP when I want attention. Have you dyed your hair?
That one got me so many compliments it‘s crazy.
Roja is 25% off at Max Aroma with free 2 day shipping!

Come'on, Ash. That was such an easy one 🤣
Not niche, it is designer
@@tombarsens1277 no? ...
My first niche fragrance is either gonna be Lost Cherry by Tom Ford or Layton, impossible to not love these I tell you.
Tom Ford it's a designer fragrance, it's not niche
@@FedeBolso14 That's been the debate for a very long time, it's niched designer
@@zepp1337 how? They have everything, belts, shoes, jackets, suits, pants, shirts, etc etc. Designer all the way

Herod and Creed Aventus Cologne are my favs
I need your help men, i have smell jubilation 25 and I like it, i need a everyday fragrance, i have not smell pdm layton , which one should I buy? Please help I can just buy one
I have both, but I wear jubilation only formally. Layton is way more versatile and compliment pulling.
Mancera may not impressive when you sniff it directly but it leaves a very attractive trail
The video begin at : 0:55
I hear Bleeker Street new formulations are pretty weak. Is it true?
I would say Pegasus. But that stuff was too expensive for me and I got royale stallion
I haven't worn it.. but I'd expect Initio Side Effect to be a puller..
I don’t like side effect there’s no effect at all.
My list would probably look exactly like this too lol... own every single one except for Aoud Lemon Mint and Masculin Pluriel and they're both on the to get list so! Samples of them coming in any day now so i can decide which one i get first!
