I was so noseblind to 540 when i tried it at the store, i was in shock. I literally just couldnt smell anything. And i could smell everything else i was trying, creeds, MFK, PDM etc.
It’s crazy when you go noseblind to certain things. Sometimes it could be something else from the store causing it or it could be just the fragrance. I sometimes go nose blind wanted by night and I know it’s there because it’s so strong
@@SoCalScents i love wanted by night! yeah the guy at the counter was like “540 is probably the strongest fragrance here oil wise” not sure of how fully true but i was like well i’ll let you know if i get a whiff 😂
These kind of fragrance reviews I love the most, because they are more informative than the usual reviews. I wish you guys all the best, ans hope to see more of videos like that from you!
I feel like men could wear Cloud IF they layer it with another complimentary/masculine fragrance. Something woody, leather, or tobacco notes would be nice to offset the sweet.
Baccarat Rouge is very expensive due to fact they use saffron and saffron is very expensive and I’m sure will will longer than any Ariana grande and u only need small amount will last you whole day or next. My opinion why it’s worth it
@@SoCalScents this would mean pass on b450? Hey guys I did try afternoon swim, and I know your channel doesn’t emphasize on performance but i personally feel it’s performance is stellar? Do you agree?
I feel it needs the proper weather and situation too for a guy to rock it. Though I love wearing it when it gets cooler out and I’m doing something fancy. So I’m glad I picked it up. But getting an expensive fragrance you won’t wear very often is always not recommended. MFK just started doing affordable small bottles on their website though.
I know Jade said don't wear it, but as a guy in his mid 30s I can safely say I have not had any scent in the last 5 years gain me as many compliments as BR540 (well the clone I wear - BR540 doesn't project as much on my skin but thomas kosmala no 4 does). And I haven't had the extreme reactions to any fragrance like i get with this. Not since I was in my early 20s and 1million first came out have I had these type of extreme compliments. So if you are a dude, wear it with confidence. On a man's skin chemistry it doesn't become too feminine.
I feel like these could be too feminine for my taste... I mean even Ultra Male is borderline too feminine for my taste, but I still like it though! Great to get these ladies' opinions too 😎
Loved the video! Thank you! Just bought Cloud today and I’m obsessed! I was sniffing my arm the whole day today! :D Also, Mandy has the prettiest voice.
I watch/listen to the joe budden podcast and on a recent episode he talked about how a lot of the women he was seeing wanted him to buy them baccarat rouge haha
@@SoCalScents it’s amazing, you wouldn’t think it as savauge is fresh and cloud is sweet but it blends very well and makes it more masculine, especially for those who find cloud more feminine
I've smelled both and can tell you that BR540 is a step above. Ariana cloud is more casual and juvenile during the opening. It's also closest clone to BR540. Br540 is a bit more grown up, while it projects and lasts much longer.
We are comparing them because they are always paired together. And yes we’ve warn it and yes there are differences. But that doesn’t matter. This is a ladies reaction video to which one they prefer. A compliment test.
You guys have a tendency to lead your guests with their reviews with your interjections. How about letting them formulate what they think of the fragrances before you say it reminds you of this or that.
We let them talk all the time. And when we don’t interact we get people complaining about that as well. So it’s better to stay active and engage in the conversation
My favorite “BCR540” scent is actually Mancera Instant Crush. Smells pretty close to BCR540, beastmode performance and the best thing is you don’t really go nose blind to it as much
There is simply NO PERFUME OUT THERE THAT CAN COME CLOSE TO BACARAT ROUGE (the edp)! It is that ONE perfume that has the same effect as that elixir perfume created by perfumist in that 2006 movie “Perfume: story of a murderer”. It has crowds swooned, like a spell, that you cannot put your finger on and cannot explain. If expensive royal rich lush class could be distilled into a fragrance it is exactly BACARAT ROUGE (the eau de parfum clear bottle!). Fresh, candy-flosslike, warm, mesmerising - it’s like magic in a bottle. If you want to smell expensively classy, buy this one. No questions asked. Save till you can afford it. And if it runs out, after a long time, save for it again!
Neither. Daisy Love is very similar to 540. They both make me nauseated, but if that scent is what you like… try Daisy Love for 1/5 or less of the Baccarat price.
Comparing because it is very similar and is a very popular fragrance in the fragrance community. It’s done by master perfumer Clement Gavarry who has done fragrances for Tom Ford, Armani, Prada, Carolina Herrera, Chloe, Calvin Klein. Other fragrances similar to baccarat rouge are Greenwhich village by bond9, instant crush by mancera, and a few others.
Whichever one who said it smelled like sunscreen absolutely nailed it. BR540 is fantastic from start to finish. Cloud starts out great but is just average at the end. I think if a couple of the girls didn't know it was an Arianna fragrance then they would have changed their answers.
There is better fragrances for men then baccaroute, for sure, the classic lady killers is always better :D guys love it because they would love it because of the molecules, girls dont like it on guys.
This video is almost 4-5 years old and was a preference compliment test. They chose the one they enjoyed more in each. Be sure to check out more recent videos
You should give them the scent without telling them what it’s is
Exactly
And take some French lessons.
Yep
Cloud for the money is amazing - great performance, smells really good and people like it!
Great value 💯
I'd love to see more of this type of content. How about a showdown between Aventus and Explorer?
Versus battles just take forever to film so we will try to sprinkle them in. It’s hard to get all our guests in at the same time 😅
Oh good one!!
Explorer wins for sure lol
@@SoCalScents you need to do it without telling them which is which. Otherwise they are influenced by the names...
Explorer is in its own league has taken Aventis type of scent to another level added peppery note for more masculinity
Should’ve done a blind test though
I was so noseblind to 540 when i tried it at the store, i was in shock. I literally just couldnt smell anything. And i could smell everything else i was trying, creeds, MFK, PDM etc.

@@AlexSchwartzATV they always make claims about oils trying to get sales 😂. Wanted by night is 🔥
I feel like they're inherently bias to cloud because it's linked to Ariana Grande. Great video as always though :)
These kind of fragrance reviews I love the most, because they are more informative than the usual reviews. I wish you guys all the best, ans hope to see more of videos like that from you!
New video every Saturday!
I feel like men could wear Cloud IF they layer it with another complimentary/masculine fragrance. Something woody, leather, or tobacco notes would be nice to offset the sweet.
Then it just becomes a new fragrance when you layer it though 😉. We do love a good layer though! BR540 and Aventus is so good!
Hey! What fragrance for a guy would go well with Ariana Grande Cloud?
Baccarat Rouge is very expensive due to fact they use saffron and saffron is very expensive and I’m sure will will longer than any Ariana grande and u only need small amount will last you whole day or next. My opinion why it’s worth it
Y’all should totally do these blind next time!
Tried b450 love it. Would you recommend cloud over it? I do not own b450, dry big price tag
Cloud is the most common female scent in LA right now, so I say not really for a guy as sooooo many girls wear it.
@@SoCalScents this would mean pass on b450? Hey guys I did try afternoon swim, and I know your channel doesn’t emphasize on performance but i personally feel it’s performance is stellar? Do you agree?
@@glall3603 it means pass on cloud. I don’t have any issues with my afternoon swim. Always puts me in a good mood
@@SoCalScents like would you agree it atlesst above avg for afternoon swim? I felt it was decent enough to be a purchase
@@glall3603 honestly I haven’t paid attention to its longevity as it hasn’t been poor on me.
Have you guys tried Oud for Greatness? It's a more masculine leaning version.of Baccarat Rouge 540.
We have, don’t enjoy it as much. But it is a nice release by Initio
good job, got my sister to try cloud and she loved it
Right on! Cloud is the most used female scent in LA, I smell it all the time.
I went back and forth in picking up BR540 for a while but I settled on not getting it. Just don’t think I’ll wear it enough but it’s a great scent.
I feel it needs the proper weather and situation too for a guy to rock it. Though I love wearing it when it gets cooler out and I’m doing something fancy. So I’m glad I picked it up. But getting an expensive fragrance you won’t wear very often is always not recommended. MFK just started doing affordable small bottles on their website though.
Appreciate the vid! So would you recommend cloud as a gift for a girl?
100%! It smells really good 🙌
I love cloud ☁️ and I also like BAccarat. I don’t even know which I like more.
I know Jade said don't wear it, but as a guy in his mid 30s I can safely say I have not had any scent in the last 5 years gain me as many compliments as BR540 (well the clone I wear - BR540 doesn't project as much on my skin but thomas kosmala no 4 does).

Right on 🙌
It’s saddening that they go for Ariana’s cloud bc it’s such a synthetic cheap fragrance where baccarat is sophisticated and beautifully delicate sugar
I would love to see you guys cover by kilians angels share i love the fragrance but don’t know how ladies react to it
We did already! Check out the boozy fragrance video from 3 weeks ago
great video!
Never saw her in a video
I know this has already been said.... But stop showing them the bottles before you spray it !
People talk about BR540 alot im going to sample it out to see if I like it
Definitely worth a sample!
This is going to get a lot of views.
Hopefully! It’s going slower than normal right now 🙌
I feel like these could be too feminine for my taste... I mean even Ultra Male is borderline too feminine for my taste, but I still like it though! Great to get these ladies' opinions too 😎
If that’s the case, cloud would definitely probably not be for you. But you’d probably like it on a girlfriend. BR540 you should sample sometime.
Loved the video! Thank you! Just bought Cloud today and I’m obsessed! I was sniffing my arm the whole day today! :D Also, Mandy has the prettiest voice.
I watch/listen to the joe budden podcast and on a recent episode he talked about how a lot of the women he was seeing wanted him to buy them baccarat rouge haha
They want that high roller gift
😂😂😂
Ariana grande cloud layered with Dior Savauge EDT, thank me later guys 😎
Will have to try it
@@SoCalScents it’s amazing, you wouldn’t think it as savauge is fresh and cloud is sweet but it blends very well and makes it more masculine, especially for those who find cloud more feminine
Duuuuuuude. That is EXACTLY what I thought of when I first saw Cloud Jeff. Lakitu or sky land from Mario 3. 😂 90s proper.
Seriously 🙌🙌
thanks a lot for the video
Is Ariana Grande Cloud ☁️ Cruelty Free 🐰🐇 & Vegan 🌱?
No idea 🤷♂️
I've smelled both and can tell you that BR540 is a step above. Ariana cloud is more casual and juvenile during the opening. It's also closest clone to BR540. Br540 is a bit more grown up, while it projects and lasts much longer.
also this is so misleading yall clearly havent worn baccarat, because it has a completely different dry down than cloud.
We are comparing them because they are always paired together. And yes we’ve warn it and yes there are differences. But that doesn’t matter. This is a ladies reaction video to which one they prefer. A compliment test.

Ariana cloud smells amazing to me on girls...wore it once personally and got a couple compliments surprisingly.. br540 loses by tko as well lol 😆
Good idea! Maybe next time make it a blind test?
1:58 perioddddd
take a shot every time she says. " yeahhh
Do you think a 20 year old could pull off BR 540?
Yeah for sure. Make sure you sample it first.
Make a video on girls smelling offensive fragrances. Include Kouros plz.
Lol whenever we do ones, people get so mad that women hate them 😅. Just look at the comment section of the Encre Noir video lol
Lol all if these girls have worn cloud prior to this video. Please!
None of them had even heard of cloud ☁️ 😂
Cool video, Amigo!
Thanks Mark!
10K Hypee 😍😅
Almost there!
MFK's BR540 is my all time favorite frag. Just an absolute beast, especially the extrait version.
Love that burnt cotton candy vibe it gives me!
My favorite “BCR540” scent is actually Mancera Instant Crush. Smells pretty close to BCR540, beastmode performance and the best thing is you don’t really go nose blind to it as much
I enjoy instant crush as well.

i'd rather get cloud
This would be better if its a blind test
Neither.
Daisy Love is very similar to 540.
They both make me nauseated, but if that scent is what you like… try Daisy Love for 1/5 or less of the Baccarat price.
I feel like guys can wear Ariana Grande's cloud as well. I heard Jeremy mention that a few times
He has, these ladies just don’t think it would work on a guy. It’s very feminine but smells good ☁️
Baccarat Rogue is unisex
I prefer Ariana Grande Cloud ☁️
How could you compare Baccarat to Ariana, if you do not have a niche nose for fragrances you will pick the cheap celebrity perfume.
Comparing because it is very similar and is a very popular fragrance in the fragrance community. It’s done by master perfumer Clement Gavarry who has done fragrances for Tom Ford, Armani, Prada, Carolina Herrera, Chloe, Calvin Klein. Other fragrances similar to baccarat rouge are Greenwhich village by bond9, instant crush by mancera, and a few others.
cloud is trash compared to baccarat lol. dont compare a kiddie gourmand to a perfectly blended fragrance
Whichever one who said it smelled like sunscreen absolutely nailed it. BR540 is fantastic from start to finish. Cloud starts out great but is just average at the end. I think if a couple of the girls didn't know it was an Arianna fragrance then they would have changed their answers.
Reason she can`t smell 540 is because she dip her nose on the strip so it get stuck on her nose :D
There is better fragrances for men then baccaroute, for sure, the classic lady killers is always better :D guys love it because they would love it because of the molecules, girls dont like it on guys.
Huge fail. Mistake to let them know which was which. The whole fun of it is not knowing what it is and choosing based just on the test.
This video is almost 4-5 years old and was a preference compliment test. They chose the one they enjoyed more in each. Be sure to check out more recent videos
A guy can wear cloud because I have and I am a dude DUDE
The Drydown of Cloud is very Musky and Musk tends to be In my opinion more Masculine
The first girl seems a bit trying too hard.
U go nose blind because of the ambroxin.. not because it’s strong 🤦🏽♀️
Adriana Grande..CL....is the best for $$ 💪🤘😜🔥💯
It’s a great scent per value but we definitely feel it’s feminine. It’s the whip cream version of BR540 🤗
Hi Boys 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
these should be blind tests and come on, at least learn how to pronounce the name!
Thanks for commenting nothing productive. This is a vs battle and is almost 3 years old. Everything was pronounced correctly in the video.
