Absolutely spot on about Hercules. As it dries down it gets incredibly close to Herod. The major difference for me comes on first spraying of the fragrance - it is sweeter with no sign of the warmth that the black pepper in Herod gives you. Hercules is a wonderful clone, and lasts longer than the PDM original. Got myself two bottles, and hoping I can get my paws on Cassius soon as well. Thanks for a fantastic fragrance video.
I really like the review and look forward to trying the tux specifically. I also really enjoyed how you gave the perfumers names and the credit. Really enjoyed the video thank you!
The only difference between The Tux and Tuxedo for me is the magnetic cap. I'd give Hercules a 95, though, I have to admit that's because it got closer sitting for a couple of months after the first spray. I'm a big fan of Kismet Angel, too. And every Tom Ford dupe Alhambra makes that I've tried has been crazy close, though Charuto is my favorite Tobacco Vanille clone.
I blind bought Hercules, went to test Herod at the shop side by side, actually prefer Hercules. Herod projected less to my nose, Hercules comes across a bit sweeter almost towards Carlisle direction (which is my favourite PdM, & the only one I own a full bottle of). Pretty keen to test Cassius, but haven't found a seller from here in Australia.
@@stevenlang9849 Glad to know it's so close. The other tobacco fragrance I absolutely love is Alexandria's original scent 1984 It's cherry tobacco, vanilla and rum. And is a beast.
Actually, they were weaker. 👀 But a number of PDM's have been reformulated (like Layton & Herod), i.e. weakened, so the difference in performance has in most cases disappeared.. 😶
I've tried two clone,Alpine clone of Channel Alure and Jorge profumo clone of Aqua di Gio profumo...a waist of money,weak,weak,weak... I kinda think they all lack persistence
@@rayygun like the worst cologne I’ve ever smelled. And the liquid makes the paint and bottle rust by the time you get it. Who knows what’s in that stuff. Smalls like death

Thanks for your reviews, I'll be getting the clone of Herod tomorrow.
I've been buying everything from Maison Alhambra because even if they aren't entirely spot-on, they are consistently quality.
Where do you buy
Porto Neroli is incredible to that of Neroli Portifino by Tom Ford it actually lasts a little longer, definitely going to buy more.
How long does it last for you and how does. Project
Just received my Porto Neroli today.
Haven't opened it yet.

I have Hercules, and although I haven't smelled Herrod, I'm really very happy with Hercules. I think it's terrific. Great video!

@@JonMadd Thanks for the comparison!
Not much difference. Herod is darker, rougher.
Hercules is missing the tabacco note, which is cherry like in Herod.

You’re right about the Tux, great stuff.
The TF clones of cherry and peach are really good too.
Excellent n helpful. Please do some more from Maison Alhambras . Sending you some names under. Thanks a lot.
I don't get the stars in the background.... 👎🏻
Good stuff Man!
Tux vs Rochas Moustache? Which is closer?
DOES MANCERA RED TOBACCO " EQUALS" SAME PERFORMANCE AS HEROD" FRAGRANCE??.
Fabulous review 🤩
Have you tried any of Alhambra's Jean Lowe Louis Vuitton clones? I'm particularly interested in Immensity.
It's fantastic 💯
95 percent close 🔥
Maison alhambra pdm clones are weaker in performance than their other fragrance clones
Agreed 👍... I have "Leyden" and it's weak as water.....lasts maybe a half hour and then It's a skin scent.
Perseus,Hercules and Galatea last long
Hercules has good performance
Actually, they were weaker. 👀
But a number of PDM's have been reformulated (like Layton & Herod), i.e. weakened, so the difference in performance has in most cases disappeared.. 😶

1 Yeah.
2 Flame Aromatique
3 Your touch.

How does alpine sport perform and how close is it
How close is the yeah to YSL Y edp and what about its sillage and longevity
I've tried two clone,Alpine clone of Channel Alure and Jorge profumo clone of Aqua di Gio profumo...a waist of money,weak,weak,weak...
I kinda think they all lack persistence

If I catch a revolver saying Kalos is great,I will rip them apart for all eternity!

Weaker performance shame on lattafa and Maison Alhambra
Is Maison Alhambra charging you $300 per bottle?
