I love this video! I swear, all month I've been wearing Cool Water for women. It reminds me of the 90s 😍 My favorite era of all time ❤️❤️❤️Nice choices and thumbs up Al.
Man, I remember my first fragrance that I ever smelt as a little kid was a bottle of Polo green that my dad wore, brought back memories when you mentioned it. I was wearing Cool Water and Tommy in High school in the 90's, 2 legends. Great Video.
In the 90's I owned Fahrenheit, Drakkar Noir, Coolwater, Chrome & Joop. Joop was so strong that I never purchased it again. Fahrenheit was my favorite, but I got the most compliments from Chrome. Thank you for doing this video. It brings back good memories.👍
This is so great man. I love old school frags. Appreciate your work man
I think most of the RUclips fragrance reviewing superstars underestimate the love out there for the vintage fragrances, including the drugstore aftershaves.
Great video, Al! You guys had great chemistry. Definitely more fragrance videos with you guys.
Good to see you back doing what you do.
Great video... 90's rocked.. Best memories with these fragrances!!
Great list! Though Calvin Klein Obsession for men should have been on this list.
David Childers Man, Obsession was earth shattering when it was first released. What a legend. Still a masterpiece.
oh okay! By the way keep up the fragrance video big fan of them.... Keep up the good work👌👌👌👌
stunning video man, i'd personally have cool water, hilfiger athletics and boss bottled in there, cool water was my first ever frag almost 20 years ago in college and what started it all.
Nice! Been wrestling with doing this list for sometime. I knew someone would do it.
Great idea and list!! I love old school fragZ. Love the vintage. Great vid Al!!
RyzFragz34 I enjoyed this so much.
Thanks for watching bro.
Brought me back in time, AL! Nice hearing Cedric weigh in on these "Old School" classics. Fahrenheit stands the test of time !
Enjoyed much
Flashback fragrances. Awesome idea :)
Have to pay Respect to The Classics bro.
Great to see Cedric as always, back to your best Al keep it going!!!!!
Old school for me is Cool water, Burberry brit black and white, polo black, ck one, issue miyake pour homme and DG the one
Good video. Keep them coming.. gotta love the old schools... you missed ASPEN for men.
Favorite old school frags are Liz Claiborne Candy's, Anucci, and Escada Casual Fridays! Bangers that go way hard!
This video took me back, AL. I think ARAMIS was my first fragrance, I rocked it so hard that I think I even had the Aramis hair gel...lol. LOVED, LOVED, LOVED Quorum. Wore that ALL through high school. KENZO, JOSEPH ABBOUD, and ETERNITY were in rotation as I went through college. MAD RESPECT for D&G POUR HOMME....still dream about that original formulation. Versace DREAMER and the Azzaros (PH & Chrome) as we got into the 90's. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Great video.
I am first :) gret ide loved this video man.. great job.. some great fragrances you had there

Great lost Al , nice vid

Maaaan nice intro, really cool! It's always fun to see you two
Hey Thanks bro. I wNt to Thank my man Bottom Note for the sick intro he hooked it up.
Great list! I started with Santos de Cartier in 1981...that was classic Miami in the 80’s!
i def respect #1 and #9 the most , i have both in vintage bottles , great list . awesome video ... i thought Amen could have made the list
Great video!!¡
Great vid! Impossible to mention all of them. But growing up around the same time I remember Pierre Cardin was huge in the 80's As well as Paco Roban ph, YSL Kouros and another 90's was CK Obsession CK one and Polo Sport. This New York cat is my favorite out of ALL your guests! Your a legend my friend!
Great vid!

I rock old school scents from time to time still. Great list!
good to see u with a new video , i missed ya man
Thanks
Such a nice change of pace. Not saying I don't like others because I really enjoy all fragrance content but this was cool.
Old school for me is 95-2000ish so mine are le male which I still love, Michael Jordan, and cool water.
My respects for your list Al and Cedric. Great list. My personal top 5: original Armani pour homme, original Versace l'homme, original Paco Rabanne for men, Original Lagerfeld for men and original Gucci pour homme.
Great Video Great List awesome fragrances My favorites are cool water, joop, eternity, and tommy I think the list needed issey miyake, chrome, polo sport, and Ck escape..
Great vid. Agree with Fahrenheit being number 1. Id push Platinum Egoiste upto number 2. Id also have Boss Bottled in as a replacement for Le Male. Good concept!
Great list. I wore 2 of them this week.
1:20 in the morning and i watch your Video, you legend!!!
Wow Thanks for watching and the kind words.
POLO SPORT was a monster in its day. You forgot that one.
Polo Sport another good Fragrance could of made the list. Thanks for the comment.
My favorite scent and my thoughts actually.
Catching this video now. Honorable mentions I'd include would be the following:
Mugler | A*Men
Paco Rabbane | Paco Rabbane Pour Homme
Van Cleef & Arpels | Tsar
Guerlain | Heritage
Dior | Eau Sauvage
Great list by the way.
Al bro that intro was badass!
Nice intro !!!
I still bang Drakkar, D&G, Cool Water. this here is an excellent video. It takes me back when the Dodgers beat the Mighty Nets in 88. Go Dodgers! LoL Polo Green baby!
I just started my Ol Skool scent shelf. D&G pour homme, Fahrenheit, Tommy (amazing), Hugo man, curve. Nostalgic to my older brother and dad. Kenneth Cole reaction curve and Versace blue jeans need a room in that list. Even if it gets extended. Clear aviators and button down for that Miami Vice vibe.
Back in the day for you is 1995 but for me it's 1975! We were just beginning to see there were men's colognes being developed other than English Leather and Brut. After graduating to Aramis, I discovered Paco, Grey Flannel, Polo. Drakkar, Azzaro Pour Homme and Paul Sebastian which is Old Spice on steroids.. I still think Chanel Pour Homme is class in a bottle when worn with a suit
One of my favorites from the '90's was Halston Catalyst, although I don't think the current formulation by EA Fragrances is as complicated as the original. One can't argue with your top 2. Le Male is a classic (and when you don't want to waste it, reach for the Cuba Gold). What do you think of the current formulation of Fahrenheit?
Grey Flannel comes on very strong but that dry down is terrific. I never really cared for Cool Water. I bought the original bottle when it first came out and couldn't wait to finish it. Personally I would make Azzaro Pour Homme #1. I still have a little left of an '80's formulation. While the current mix is strong, like most others released today, it's not close to the projection of the original.
Aramis for sure. Also Z14, 4711, A*men, Lagerfeld Classic, Lauder for Men, Eau Sauvage, Bvlgari Black, Bvlgari eau te Vert (and the Extreme version).
This video has me looking at bottles I long forgot I had. I bought Gucci Envy when it first came out in 1998 and wasn't that crazy about it. It's almost full and now I see that it's going for a boatload on Ebay. I'm also staring at an almost full bottle of Ralph Lauren's Safari edt and aftershave, a half bottle of Giorgio Beverly Hills, and a small amount Paul Sebastian's V.S.O.P which has long been discontinued. I also have a full bottle somewhere of Alexander Julian's Colours.
If I knew then what I know now, I might have bought cases of some of the stuff that's been reformulated, including Old Spice by Shulton which has been changed into a sweeter fragrance called "Classic" Old Spice since it was sold to Proctor and Gamble and Mem's English Leather before the sale to Dana Classics.
oh man my father used to wear english leather.. used to stink the whole house out lol. My mother used to buy me paul sebastian, Was a little old school for me even than lol
You would be surprised at how often women ask about Paul Sebastian. As far as English Leather goes, this is an interesting review from a great fragrance blog: frompyrgos.blogspot.com/2012/05/english-leather-dana.html
Shave- a-thon really? Seems like today only things that get pushed smell like the cleavage of a womans tits lol
According to my taste back in the 90s and early 2000s... 1) Platinum Egoïste
(vintage formulation with real oakmoss) 2) D&G Por Homme 3) Acqua Di Gio 4) Coolwater 5)Polo Sport 6) CK One 7) Le Male) 8) Dior Homme 9) Egoïste 10)Angel Man
Alex Martinez polo sport is a must on a throw back video
Ahh coolwater. Friend showed me that scent a couple months back and its smells so clean and fresh.
I had them all and thanks for the memories.
Thanks for watching. We have to give Respect to The Classics
Respect!!! "Platinum Egoiste is still in battle." I love it. From the 70's I would add Aramis and original Givenchy Gentleman. From the 80's: Kouros and original Egoiste. And from 1995: CK One.
Like GregNice said "Let's take it back to the old school." Great list. Awesome top 10. Fahrenheit def #1. Cool water is reformulated now, not good anymore. Cedric mentioned Photo by Lagerfeld. That's a nice one.
It depends on your idea of old school! Their old school is over 15 years past college for me! I can't believe I left out
Photo! I loved that one. It's another one that projected like crazy which women loved on a date. I bought a bottle in the late nineities and it was alot weaker than the original I had which came with a gym bag when bought in Macys.
Nice list. I still own 4 of these including the top 3.
Great list. Makes me feel old. Missing that OG Carolina Herrera and Kenzo.
one of my favorite guests on street scents. some other old school scents: YSL opium , guerlain heritage, egoiste,
Excelent list!
Yeah Cedric man! Love that guy! He's my age lol
Cedric! Always looking fresh and great opinions!
I own #6 and I like it....it gets compliments.
But...I prefer the original version of #6. Love it! I still wear both versions to work.
I still own #10 but I sometimes use it as a room spray or my "around the house" scent.
#4 was one of my old favs. It was my old fav a few years ago. I think I went through 4 bottles.
Who didn't own #3. That was the top scent for the middle schoolers. I stopped wearing it as soon as I discovered #4 on your list heh.
Haha honorable mention of Polo Green? I still wear that and I love it. That actually has the best after shave I ever done used. It lasts and it gets compliments haha. Very manly...in fact that's what I've been told: "you smell like a man *hugs*".
My top ten would include the 5 from your list that I mentioned. I'd probably add Boucheron Pour Houmme and Jaipur. I didn't appreciate those two when I was younger but now I love them.
Obsession is another I'd add to any top ten list. Michael Jordan had a very catchy fragrance. It'd be an honorable mention on popularity (I honestly don't remember what it smells like).
My absolute favorite was Curve. If I had to make a top ten, Curve and Eternity are my #1 and #2. Eternity probably smells better but I loooooved Curve haha.
L'eau d'Issey pour Homme timeless classic for any age any occasion. Excellent performance, great pleasant silage. Hope they never take it out of production. It was my point of no return in my journey into fragrance world.
I still wear DG pour homme till this day as well as fahrenheit. . love it.. Wish they kept the original formula.. Tommy was another awesome one.. It was a fresh apple pie smell.. super compliment getter.. Great list. Honestly bro.. Many of these fragrances are better than all the shit today. Many of these don't have a place in my heart.. I still prefer them now in 2016.. And if these weren't reformed they would kick the shit out of 90 percent of everything today.
Love Cedric, we need more of dudes like him in the world. I would add Swiss Army, Hugo, issey miyake, polo green, polo sport, polo romance, chrome, ck one
I still wear Drakkar. Love that scent!
thought of Cedric other day when I whipped out the Lagerfield PHOTO!!
I love the new intro
Thank You.
d&g pour homme still one of my most favorite bright spicy soapy frags
Don't get me wrong I really like this video, but how would you position Aqua di Gio(the most sold fragrance of all times) and D&G pour homme below joop and Cool water? That didn't make any sense to me, and what happen with Versace Blue jeans?
Drakkar still reminds me of Miami in 1985. Such a classic, although I wouldn't wear it outside the house now.
My honorable mention: Aramis Havana, a beautiful rum, tobacco masterpiece.
I respect this list
Obsession should have been on the list.
Good Job Al. Good good job. 1) Azzaro pour homme, 2) Jazz, 3) Kouros, 4) Fahrenheit, 5) Halston Z14, 6) Tuscany Per Uomo, 7) Paco Rabanne pour homme, 8) Givenchy Gentleman, 9) Tsar by Van Cleef & Arpels, 10) Zino by Davidoff.
Hey thanks for watching with a nice list some great choices.
the best list ever!!
I love all them ol skoo fragrances. Even the grey flannel one (the light blue juice)
Not sure it fits the old school category but to me it does and that's Chanel Allure PH. Great list and video guys!
náutica competition was my signature scent back in high school
Moncho Linares That cologne was the shit in high school. I was mad when it was discontinued.
I’m still wearing platinum, and dolce . Old Skool bottles , I have a story to tell for every oldskool bottle of cologne
have you tried to clone/dupe of platinum
Crazy I still have the old classic Dolce and Gabbana Pour Homme from 2000. Sticker has came off but juice is still good. Thats my number 1.
I agree with your top 10 and there are a lot of honorable mentions... (CK Obsession for men) was one I remember being BIG back in the day. And ( Colors Cologne By BENETTON for men) one of my favorite that is now discontinued. I also remember some of the cheep discount colognes that were pretty popular. I was in high school in the early 90's and remember smelling a lot of (Preferred Stock) and (Aspen), if you couldn't afford (Cool Water) LOL. (Gravity) was a good cheepy. And I do agree that a lot of these frags were a hell of a lot stronger back in the day and smelling better... or, then again, my nose could be getting old
great no1 guys! there is no scent like it, very unique.- As a lover of the powerhouses I would add Ted Lapidus- Lapidus , Azzore- Pour Homme and Kouros, all dirty mofos. Nice review, enjoyed it and subbed.
I had mentioned Azzaro Pour Homme in an earlier, lengthy comment. The early bottle of Kouros I had was power-ful! A couple of sprays announced my presence a few seconds before I walked in the door and the thing lasted an entire workday. Most everything I bought back then were projection monsters and I took it for granted that fragrances would always be like that. I guess the FDA regulations and sale of some of them changed the picture.
Great List Definitely would have added Polo Green , Ted Lapidus Pour Homme and Paco Rabanne Pour Homme
nice
I rock Fahrenheit and I'm 34. love that stuff. I also rock the le male. what go think of Lagerfeld classic?
Cedric is your Hype Man!
My high school scent.. Swiss Army classic, versace blue jeans for parties and for the beach/country club paul Sebastian ps cologne
Nice intro! 👌🏽
Hell yes, Fahrenheit as number one? Agreed 💯
Gotta get that for versace blue jeans and possibly hugo boss with the grey twist off cap in there!!! Great list though fellas!
Great video Al and Polo Green shoulda made the list.
I sprayed Drakkar for the first time (not knowing how strong it was), in the middle of English class and got kicked out and suspended. Everyone said it smelled good, but was way too too strong.
no issey miyake??? #putsomerespeckonit
I RESPECT THAT
You HAVE to mention Drakkar! It's classic! I actually just bought a bottle at the department store near me. It's fresh and clean. I bought it out of nostalgia. Had it growing up. My first fragrance. Love it. Has the guest really even smelled any of these? It seems as though he just agrees with you in every vid and just generalizes all frags in describing them. Hard to tell if he really has experience with them truthfully or not. Also I thought I would see Polo sport or original polo on the list too.
Dude, I still rock Drakkar on occasion. I've wearing it since I was 13 years old. I'm in my late 20s and that shit turns heads from lady's 20-50. I kid you not. And if I tell them it's Drakkar, the older ladies go nuts that it still be being worn and the younger ladies have no idea what that is hahaha. Respect.
Drinking it like water....🤣🤣 classic...Back in the day's it was ..king of the hill...clean fresh minty....minty fresh clean...
Thanks guys you really turned me on to a lot of different scents... even though I'm a woman I enjoy splashing on the men's fragrances
PS the pronunciation for Chanel EGOISTE is
'eh go e e s t'
(I think that's French for egotist)
I totally loved this video. I've owned multiple bottles of almost all of your mentions, Tommy and Le Male being the exceptions. It's fair to say that Drakkar can also be worn today. My list would have included the juice that made me a frag freak, Xeryus Rouge. A masterpiece I do not allow myself to go empty on. I love the fact that you paid respect to Joop. Some frag snobs tend to disrespect it, knowing they've worn it for the girls. My list would have also included Preferred Stock, that has a special place in my heart and before, had a place in my pocket. Aqua Quorum by Puig, Polo Sports cheap twin, I rocked endlessly. What about a video paying respect to old school discontinued frags?
Hey thanks for the awesome comment nice choices. great idea might have to look into doing a new video real soon.
I still wear jean Paul gaultier, dolce and gabbana, joop, and cool water. My favorite is dolce and gabbana and joop.
Almost all 90's... 70's and 80's were the best old school frags.
I'm still wearing Aqcua di Gio, D&G Homme, Joop, Le Male, and Fahrenheit today. I had Tommy back in the day back in the day but it was too light of a scent. I'd spray a ton, & it be a skin scent within an hour. The D&G reformulation is just not up to par. I recently bought a bottle of some older juice. Surprised you did not include Grey Flannel, but it did get an honorable. No mention of Obsession.
Somehow I left out Obsession in my comment! Absolutely tremendous in its day whether going out with friends or especially on a date. No gal forgot you when you wore CK's Obsession. That thing projected for the entire night! Your overcoat, sports jacket, shirt, chesthair, pillowcase...everything smelled from Obsession into the next day!
I first bought it in 1986 at a dept. store. It came in a gift set with a Calvin Klein watch and an additional 1 oz. bottle (which I still have).
Yes! Eternity & Fahrenheit!!! Those are true classics!
I think Issey Miyake should definitely be in any list of top 10 or top 5 lists of 80's 90's or 00's
that #9 i have own 5 bottle of that juice and now 2017 December i had to bring back to my collection i just got 1 last week 100 ml for $60
I still rock the D&G #9 should be higher on that list bruh
