Save and just get Naxos, one thing I would do different if I could start my frag journey again is just get a few of the best fragrances rather than wasting just as much money on many cheaper fragrances.
You probably wouldn't enjoy the really good ones as much as you do rn though. I'm slowly transitioning from (imo) way too many good designers to a small amount of really amazing niche fragrances and it's a real pleasure.
@@catex5452 True. Either way, your going to want to explore the other party. I started from the bottom (cheapies), to designer, to higher end designer, to exploring niche. The proper way to grow imo.
I agree 100% I have so many designers over 85 bottles and heaps of back ups / 200 ml bottles of stuff that I will never get through as I always wear my niche stuff most of the time & I just get 5 ml samples now . I wish I didn’t buy all those cheap designers they are not getting used .
I bought Naxos today. I got chatting to another fraghead in Harrods and he said about this. I was absolutely blown away by it. I went back to my car, just sitting there thinking about it. I got out my car and returned to the shop to buy it. Its an absolutely gorgeous scent that is extremely well blended together. My first from this house and it certainly does not disappoint.
Excellent comparison. Spot on. I have been in perfumery since I was 13. I’m now 60. Tobacco has been by far my most favorite note ever. I currently own and actively use Naxos, which I consider a gem. I also own over 50 tobacco perfumes, all niche. Before becoming a niche snub, I had also purchased many designer tobacco perfumes over the years, including TM Pure Havane. They are both fabulous perfumes. I love them both. But I have to say, I don’t consider Naxos to be a tobacco perfume, but a honey perfume. To me, Naxos is a honey perfume with tobacco flavor, whereas TM Pure Havane is a tobacco perfume with a honey flavor. The cherry dimension pulls Pure Havane further away from Naxos. Simultaneously, the lavender dimension in Naxos makes their separation even greater. And definitely, as you accurately stated, Naxos is more sophisticated, elegant, and deep, which makes it better to wear for more formal activities, whereas PM is more informal and easier to reach for day-to-day wear. So, I’m not sure why people compare them to the point of almost making both perfumes sound as interchangeable, except to say that they both share tobacco and honey as a commonality. But the proportions of these two notes in their blends are notably different to me , further aggravated by the differences i mention above. In short, buy both…one for informal wear and other for formal wear.
I appreciate people like clones because they can't/won't for a premium product which is completely fine either way. But I think Naxos is a winner here. Its so complex and rich while staying fresh off the top.
since pure havane was launched before naxos, it would make naxos the clone in this situation plus given the sent profile I'd call naxos a flanker more than a clone, it's cherry honey tobacco vs citrus honey tobacco tobaco
Received my bottle of Naxos yesterday. It was a blind purchase and worth every penny. First of all the packaging screams luxury. I felt like I was unboxing a brick of gold. The scent is just legendary and a must buy. The performance is amazing as well. So freaking good!
Got a 5ml sample of Naxos which made me realise how superior it is to my bottle of Pure Havane... I'm going to make the leap and buy Naxos, it's worth every penny.
@@michaelreynol8 yes mate, It outperforms Pure Havane by a good 5 hours on my skin. And the sample obviously doesn't distribute as much juice as the real bottles so I've no doubt in my mind that the stuff is beast mode... Just the sample with 4 sprays lasted me all day and in to the evening. Try a sample, you will not be disappointed... You will notice how superior the ingredients are.
It is such a hard one to get nowadays. I was lucky enough to grab one in a fragbuy restock. This bottle goes with me to my grave now. Such a great scent 🔥
xerjoff is an incredible house. Probably the best one out there for my nose :p nio, Alexandria ii, naxos, Renaissance, irisss, erba pura, the list goes on and on... Really amazing house!
Just purchased Mugler Pure Havane for the first time will have to wait a week to get it I do have two bottles of Mugler pure Malt so all set, keep them coming your my favorite to watch thank you.
I feel fortunate to have both of these in my collection, a really deep and extensive comparison. I definitely think there is room for both in my world.
Slept on Pure Havane for too long, but finally pulled the trigger last week. And I got the Thierry Mugler 2014 version, very portent. So overall, I'm happy with my purchase. This is all thanks to you Chris, particularly, for stubbornly bringing this to our attention. Thanks a lot, Chris. Keep up the great work! 👍😍
Glad someone is talking about this. Pure havane and naxos are the same fragrance. PH is superior value and the tobacco is so rich in PH. Like walking around in a cloud of Cuban cigars.
I like Naxos, I respect it...but there's something about Pure Havane that is endearing and triggers my nostalgia. It's comforting with it's gaudy and overdone charm. The bottle is tacky, the smell is almost tacky as well- but that's what I love about it
@@philmccollough4437 was in TKMaxx for £54 but now it’s gone off the website so I’m assuming it’s sold out but samples I got from Fragrancesamlesuk which are super cheap
no comparison, Naxos smells so much more natural to me, that tobacco leaf with the citrus is beautiful. Pure Havane is sticky and overly sweet cherry bomb on my skin that gets annoying after 15mins usually. I get better longevity with Naxos too
Excellent Video. Actually I have a 10ml decant of Naxos, and then I bought Pure Havane one month later, and the difference is huge, night and day. I can't understand how, many people are saying these 2 perfumes are similar or even close. PH opens up with a harsh alcoholic synthetic horribly dirty smell, which fades away to a weird tobacco scent in the dry down. Naxos is an incredible high quality tobacco scent with a wonderful opening and dry down, where tobacco is the star.
Stuff it, I deleted my initial comment it was too long and pretty much what you said as I own both, so agree with your closing comments. Great comparison video for two great fragrances!
Great vid Chris, I love them both,I think pure havane is a signature everyday scent and naxos is the more formal version, I think there both fantastic but if I could only have one it would be naxos, that said I'd miss wearing havane.....Great vid atb Lee
Great VS, Chris!!!! I'm yet to try Pure Havane so I must give it a try. Naxos is a beauty! Got 2 Xerjoff samples and love it!!!! Also the Alexandria clone is quite similar but defo Naxos exudes more elegance, refinement, and quality! Happy Easter!!!
Another inexpensive option is Reyane Tradition Insurrection II Wild. Smells like Pure Havane and under $30 USD. Might do if one cant find the Mugler Pure havane.
I actually prefer NAXOS but one thing majority don't know is that pure havane came out first so don't thing calling pure havane a clone is appropriate .
Really loving the new setup Chris. Love the little details of the transition text matching the t shirt and light colour 👍🏻 why am I noticing these things I’m here for fragrance haha. Love Naxos 🥰
If something performs better, I will chose that. If people think “skin scents” are worth >£100 they’re mad. Pure havane gets better the longer you wear it in my opinion. The opening is too strong and much too sweet for me. After around 4 hours I really enjoy it! Definitely a 2 spray max kind of scent!
Out of 50-60 bottles/decants that I have owned till date (which is not a very big number from a collector point of view), Naxos has been consistently unbeatable in all aspects. Coincidentally, it is also the fragrance that has gotten me atleast 1 compliment/comment every time I have worn it. Great video 💯
Cool comparison Chris . 👏 I have a full Bottle of Naxos and I've had a Decant of Pure Havane , I Don't find them that similar personally and Pure Havane had average projection and longevity on my skin . Naxos however projects and lasts like a Beast on my skin !! I like Pure Havane but love Naxos and I agree with you that they're different enough to own both . 👍
I actually just got a sample of Naxos in the mail today funnily enough. It is of MUCH higher quality than pure Havane, but for the price ill stick with pure Havane because I still enjoy it a ton!
I love pure havane. I paid $99 CAD at full retail and regret not buying their whole inventory. But at this stage with all the price gouging, just save your money and buy Naxos. Lol
I actually don't like Pure Havane at all, so when I heard people comparing it to Naxos it put me off buying it. I bought Naxos a couple days ago now and I absolutely love it, I understand the similar notes but these are so different..
Love Pure Havane fantastic if your not a frag connoisseur then the Mugler will be refreshing to the senses.The fact its affordable is even better most people who aren't in this community mainly by fragrances based on commercial promotion I.e marketing or from direct influence e.g parents or siblings.Hence the proliferation of blue fragrances or barbershop scents
I truly love pure havane, but went for Naxos recently and .... wow. Love them both for different reasons. PH so comforting, but Naxos so refined and complex (and fresher). On the tobacco theme also got triumph of Bacchus too .... Which... Well... BLOODY HELL it's good!!!
I got a sample of Naxos way before I blind-bought a fb of Pure Havane (because the curiosity is killing me). Well it turns out i like PH much much more. I realized to my nose, the honey-tobacco combo is better without the lavander. Its just pure sweet tobacco tthat makes it feel grounded and cozy, while lavander in Naxos makes it feel lighter and not very friendly. And because PH is cheaper i can wear it everyday. I got a 2nd bottle the next day, and it makes it more worth it because its already discontinued
Why are these ppl still talking about Pure Havanne it's been discontinued for awhile and they charge 150 to 300 for the last found bottles.I love that cherry pipe tobacco pure havanne I can't find anything like it.
I bought 1981x before I smelled Naxos... the tobacco note in it is more subtle, but I feel like that's with most AF fragrances... their tobacco note isn't in your face... I get a lot of honey and vanilla from it. A lot of people around me have liked it so not ready to spend up on Naxos, even though Xerjoff is one of my fav niche houses. Maybe if there's a big sale
I didn’t like Naxos at all. I don’t know if people are payed to promote it, but it smelled like spearmint gum with honey. I’m from the west coast maybe we have different nose 👃 I hope everybody gets a sample first. I can’t believe how much this stuff smells like spearmint gum and honey!
Is Naxos that good? I’ve watched lots of reviews, but some say it’s really just honey and vanilla and hardly any tobacco? I’m about to pull the trigger for £170 - Any thoughts would be welcome 🙏 FYI - I already have Tobacco Vanille, would this be too similar to Naxos and thus not worth the purchase?
I'm not sure why, but I can't smell Tobacco in either of these. They just smell addictively sweet and creamy to my nose, but no tobacco at all, both my parents used to roll cigarettes, maybe I went blind to it or something. Strange how we don't all smell things the same way.
Great video Chris! Def need to get a sample of Naxos, just haven’t gotten around to doing so. This video just catapulted it to the top of my fragrance to do list. Be well! 👍🍻
@@cristiansamoila4933 dunno... I know they discontinued it so that could be the reason. Too many complaints. Sold mine on eBay now and gonna buy Naxos.
How does ATH Boss Bastard compare to these two? The note breakdown is similar, i just smelled ath boss bastard until now and for me its mainly honey tobacco after the opening.
I love Pure Havane but i haven't tried Naxos. Could Back to black fit in the conversation? also how about comparing Back to black with Gold knight, is owning both of those justifiable?
@@FRAGMENTAL oh okay I thought you got it from See Scents. I am seriously considering getting this very soon.

That colour saturation really poppin'. Very nice. Shoutout to the shoutout to Nigel's channel. Sneaky. 😉
Yeah always plugging Nige!
I am a female who wears Naxos. I like it because it smells like my husband when he gets out of the shower. It is beautiful.
Just purchased Mugler Pure Havane for the first time will have to wait a week to get it I do have two bottles of Mugler pure Malt so all set, keep them coming your my favorite to watch thank you.

How about neither. I choose Ryane Traditions Insurrection Wild II. One of the few times when the clone is better. Awesome!
Insurrection is closer to Pure Havanne. It’ s very good.
For the prices lately of Havane, it might be easier to cop Naxos? Why did they discontinue it 😡
What do you mean? I can still buy it everywhere in the Netherlands for 60 euros..
£170 for 100ml at retail in the UK. You have to be fast to pick it up at discounters! It sells out so fast
I live in the US and its more expensive over here to get. Id scoop up multiple bottles at those prices 😯

Hmm and what about the PP Naxsos clone ?
I've not actually tried it!
