Thank you Omar for introducing Kenzo Homme EDP! After trying a tester in the perfumeshop I instantly fell in love with it and bought a bottle. What a nice perfume! Fits me perfectly! This 'll be signature scent this summer! Thank you once again for helping me find this true gem!!! 👍
Bleu de Chanel and Dior Homme 2020 smell completely different… lol not even worth the comparison, DH 2020 is a woody iso e super based frag while BDC is a shower gel grapefruit ambroxan frag. DH 2020 is simple and linear yet the ladies love it, one of the more compliment pulling fragrances in my collection. To say it’s completely trash is almost like you’re saying your opinion is the only one who’s matters when all big reviewers are even saying that after they got over the removal of Iris how versatile and great the scent profile is. I heavily agree to disagree with you BUT None the less, keep up the solid content.
@@adamtrueblood5938 Dior homme 2020 Compared to Bleu de Shitnel has the better Performance/Longevity. You pay for a pricey Produkt (BdC) and get the Longevity of cheap Parfum.
I live in Florida USA so I have a lot of blue and fresh fragrances. I also work outdoors so finding one that lasts is a real challenge. I started with voyage but now I am wearing just a cheap blue I got at a discount retailer called azure. That's it just azure. I also have worn Perry Ellis Aqua because I picked it up for just 6 dollars and it smelled good and works for what I do. But I wear things like bentley for men azure and infinite as well as versace the dreamer and Aqua de Gio when I go out on weekends. Davidoff is always a safe choice as well.
I'm in Florida also. Acqua di Gio Profondo is my favorite summer fragrance. Chanel Allure Homme Sport Cologne is also great (very light and fresh citrus).
@@travisn346 I haven't bit the bullet and gotten channel but only hear good things about it. My most recent pick up is azzaro chrome extreme. Very nice and lasting on me.
Kenzo homme edp is also the first kenzo i have ever smelled or owned and i love it. I've also tried to like dior homme 2020, but i cant stand it. Dior homme sport 2021 is a banger tho. Great list Omar
Gosh another bottle of Acqua Di Gio Profumo is a must for me. Now that the Parfum is out, i am almost sure that Profumo will be discontinued. Luckily it is still easily available here in Southern Africa.
Kenzo lhomme edp masterpiece by Quentin Bisch and appreciated more and more slowly (launched in 2022) it is super long lasting masculine. But a safe blind buy is the last thing I would say. It is like saying encre noir or bentley man intense are best blind buys
I think, that selection is very very good and quite discovering to me personally in some cases as well. I do not blind buy, just want to be accurate with my budget I spend on a perfume, haha. Regarding this summer, I think that Versace Eau Fraiche from the affordable line will be my staple on the high heats together with the After-shave lotion form Terre D'Hermés. The second one I bought view years ago and I can recommend it. This is lighter, than a regular perfume and it is also quite elegant and beautiful especially for the high heats. In my far future I think that Dior Homme Cologne will be my summer perfume. This is very simple, but created expertly, with a really beautiful bergamot top note and well chosen naturals.
Hi,,love the channel and the reviews,,can you point me to a video where you have reviewed Calvin Klein Eternity for Men EDT,, its one of my faves,,so i'd be interested in your view,,many thanks
@@richparkinson9647 yeah that’s exactly what it is with abit of spices/woods for me. It’s probably just a nostalgia thing but I still wear it every summer without fail. And I think now because it’s “had it’s time” you don’t get anyone wearing it so I tend to pick up compliments, either that or it just comes off my skin really well
ATH Hard Candy Elixir is much sweeter and muskier and so much less suited to high heat, especially in the sun. The Elixir is appropriate when you want to stand out -- and it projects like a beast off of my skin. So in high heat in a night club, you will stand out among the sea of Sauvage and Paco Rabanne scents. But in a car, you'll choke someone out. I followed the advice from his video and layered the two, and, yeah, that's an awesome way to wear it. The discovery set had a 10ml of each, and while Hard Candy can be used in any situation, the Elixir is one of my favorites that he has produced. So much so that I grabbed a 50ml bottle to make sure I don't run out.
Great great list. Imo these are the top fragrances for a collection as a whole. Like Jeremy is beginning to shed light on-line when we're not trying to obsess and addict to fragrances, fresh is king, always.
Yes herrera 212 is a masterpiece amd I known it since early 00s But sorry just a side note if you buy current formulation it will last 3 hours~ Those mentioned 12 hours maybe if you'd buy one from 2000-2005. Don't believe that
Mate I was going to say the same NYC 212 was my first purchase with my own money, I like it since the first use, one of my fav of all time, now days if you get 3h to 4h you are very lucky, back in 2003 in my skin definitely I get 8h to 9h and 3 to 5 days on clothes.
Fragrance scent is always subjective. Objectively buying, the best way to buy any of fragrance is not "blind buy". The worst way to buy a fragrance is "blind buy". Get your ass off and go to counter or get a decant/sample. People with impulsive buying behaviour, always gonna blind buy. Fact 95% buying decision is subconcious (fill with emotion, love, like, subjective matter, trend, etc).
I'm sure you were asking Omar, but, try Sartorial by Penhaligon's. A definite fougere, not so much a freshy. But man, whenever I wear it I get crazy compliments. Just a straight up old school gents frag. If you are a suit and tie kinda fella. You'll feel like a king in this.
@@Colemanator thanks! I was asking anyone for some help tbh, I’m gonna have to get a sample of that then. Do you also have any cheaper recommendations also?
@@SchoolOfScent thanks dude! I love your channel Omar and your recommendations. Do you have more recommendations that would be on the cheaper side? I love gentle fluidity silver but MFK is so expensive
Fake News!! Dior Homme 2020 is fabulous juice...masculine, elegant, smells awesome in the air with versatility. Dior Homme Sport 2021 is weak af, barely smell it, boring and gone in 2 hours
Everyone's nose is different, so wear what you love. That said, my continued dislike of DH 2020 is stronger than yours. For me, It's not just boring, it smells cheap. Cheap cedar wood chips, black pepper and sweat are all I get out of it. But I don't like DH Sport 2021, either. The frankincense in it smells like the arthritis creams the elderly used in the 70's, and I can't get past that scent memory from my childhood. DH Cologne 2022 smells ok, but for that price, I want better longevity and projection.
I think this guy has a good work ethic and his videos can be somewhat informative, but there’s something off about him, I think he gets most of his information from watching other RUclipsrs and he exaggerates on that info to try to make it his own and sound legit. This guy is not a seasoned fragrance connoisseur, time and time again his videos are full of stuff that I see other fragrance reviewers say such as Dior Homme 2020 is not that good or a “disappointing release by Dior” yeah we all know that Dior Homme 2020 was very different than the original Dior Homme and the rest of the Dior Homme line with the Iris note but to say that Dior Homme 2020 is trash is absolutely not true I own 200 fragrances and Dior Homme 2020 is one of my best go to fragrances it smells awesome, its way different than The OG Dior Homme and the Dior Homme Intense (which I have) but it’s a fantastic fragrance that I will always have in my collection, and I don’t even think it smells anything like Bleu De Chanel (which I own) it may be in the same vibe but it’s not the same it’s very different. I even like DH 2020 more then BDC. Dior is a high quality fragrance company if you have any Dior fragrance you have a top of the line fragrance. We are all free to have our own opinions and we don’t all have to like the same stuff but to call Dior Homme 2020 trash is absolutely ridiculous! This guy needs to reevaluate his approach to making content and figure out a different way to solidify his stance as a fragrance reviewer because he is not giving people a fair view on a lot of fragrances.
Far from safe and even more far from safest are overhyped DIor Homme Sport 2021 that is screechy insecticide lemon, Profumo/Essenza and Parfum if it also has the stinky marine salt note unbearable for some of us

Bought 200ml pure parfum 1 million in January. Still have almost 170ml, gonna give ppl headaches rocking it during +40 Celsius🥰🥰🥰🥰
Bro is a menace
Versace pour homme is also very affordable and safe for the summertime signature
Nah man, Dior Homme 2020 is a masterpiece. Fair enough it should never have been released as part of the homme line, but scent itself is fire.

Do you actually got girl you don’t know that coming to you telling you you smell good ?
7:39 I do not agree… Dior Homme EDT 2020 is one of the Best Release in 2020.
Came here to say this, I find it superior to Bleu de Chanel in every way.

@@Connor-Duncan5 exactly, and every woman I have asked prefers it to the Chanel as well.

Kenzo edp - niche fragrance in designer bottle, that stuff is a class, but i would never say it is a safe blind buy
Dior 2020 is blended pretty well, better than Dior intense for sure
Kenzo homme edp is also the first kenzo i have ever smelled or owned and i love it.

Yes 212 is a masterpiece had it in my rotation since I first wore it in school in 2006
I couldn't do it. Just smelled of fresh cut grass to me. Wasn't into it. It definitely nailed what it was going for though.

Bro, that Hard Candy is SO good!
I love ATH fragrances anyway, but that one is great
Never blind buy. I learnt the hard way.
I just blind bought Terre d'Hermes Eau Givree , beyond excited to try it
I just blind bought “By Virtue of Sunbeams” on your recommendation. Life is short so what the hell!
You won’t regret it, the quality is incredible for the price 😊
I just bought Visionary by Alexandria Fragrances , what do you think about it?
Thank you for the description of the whole range!...All the best.

Have 20% left of a 4.2oz of Essenza. It's my SOTD! Going to the movies and pizza later. I'll have to buy the new ADG to replace my Essenza bottle.
Great idea!
Something similar to Dior Fahrenheit 32? My favorite 😊 unfortunately discontinued
You described Dior Homme 2020 perfectly. When I tried it, I called it "Bleu De Dior". Dior Homme Sport '21 I love. Great fragrance
Not complaining but yeh we aren't setup to enjoy the heat unlike on holiday
Well done for finally catching your moustache thief 👏 and Dior Homme 2020 is a great fragrance IMO 😅
Anyone know where to buy the Alexandria Black Panther? Can't see it online anywhere
Just oredered hawas and it was a blind buy, hopefully it won't let me down
L take on Dior Homme. Can't see the BDC comparison...because it's fresh and woody..?! It's simple but not basic imo
Please guys, can you tell me which cologne of the line Dior homme you prefer for the summer (with performance on your skin etc…) ?
Sport or cologne
EAU Sauvage edt and Homme Cologne
We want video rainy season on rainy season fragrances
Can you make a video about Matiere Premiere?

Thanks! AP is a great scent but disappointing longevity, also discontinued now?
@@SchoolOfScent Cool thanks... seems to still be available online here in Denmark.
YSL edp is king in summers 😍
Any recommendations for CH 212 nyc similar perfumes?
Actually the AdG Parfum should be a replacement of Profumo
I sprayed them side by side. The Parfum and Profumo are 90% similar. The dry downs are nearly identical.
By Virtue of Sunbeams sounds interesting, but I am not gonna pay more than 3x the price of the perfume on shipping 😂
Best summer fragrance blind buys? My fragrance of course! Fragrance one, office for men!
I just jumped over to buy sunbeams, and it’s sold out!
Thank you!! Finally, someone else that thinks Dior Homme 2020 sucks.
Any recommendations for the best fougere fragrances? I want my hands on a really nice manly fresh scent lol
MFK Masculin Pluriel is up there! As is Tom Ford Beau de jour

Guys dior homme 2020 is de real deal holyfield. Don't listen to him.
firsttt
Awesome. You have no idea how long I've been looking for a good fragrance for my fetus.
I swear, Omar makes the BdC/Dior Homme comparison just to her people riled up and commenting. They really don't smell much alike to me.
