Quorum is my version of your infatuation with Drakkar Noir so thanks for putting it in the list. Wore Quorum thru high school AND college and in college I discovered Freen Irish Tweed and Bob Mackie, Tommy Hilfiger and even Carolina Herrerra which were all the starters for my frag journey. 30 years later I still wear all of them and a few hundred more.
Cartier edition Noire is a great “cheapie” that I would pay double for. A creamy, woodsy citrus scent that lasts FOREVER. I’ve been complimented while wearing that scent 10+ hours after application
I have almost all those fragances you mention azzaro visit is very easy to wear, perfect for the everyday, also i own a Quorum Silver bottle and surprisingly I got a lot of compliments when I'm wearing that cologne and I pay less than 19 $ for that bottle.
Hi, Ash! Versace, the Dreamer, is one of the best fragracances EVER CREATED!!! My personal top 20, even top 10 ! Humble , versatile, unique, even mature, but in the same time fresh and unforgettable! Absolutely easy to recognise! The Dreamer - FOREVER LOVE!!! LOVE FOREVER!
Absolutely incredible scent!!! Holds its own against the pour homme easily imo. Was the first cologne I ever bought myself, found it at Marshall's for 20$ and have been obsessed with it ever since. Same for seductive noir by guess and pi by Givenchy. None of them get the love they deserve.
The Dreamer and any Lalique are definitely worth double their current price at discounters, and even more. People like to dump on Miyake's Eau d'Issey Blue Astral but I find it a very pleasant and well crafted blue scent worth more than its price. Lagerfeld Bois de Yuzu is another cheapie worth double its price (and I've been told also the other frags in the line). Finally, Sergio Tacchini EdT, even at 4x the price, would be a steal.
Versace The Dreamer IS the top 3 Versace frags ever released. I got Lalique Hommage 2 weeks ago...couldn't believe i paid so little for such a high class scent. Beautiful frag, blind buy worthy
I couldn't find a single person out of the 200+ people I work with that said they liked the way Hommage smelt, they all said it smells like an old woman
I still remember smelling Versace Dreamer for the first time. It felt like an old time fragancr but new at the same time. Kinda mythical lol really embodied the name and package. Its one of the few fragance that truly makes me feel a specific kinda way.
Some solid recommendations here. I was worried the Lalique one would be too old school but it sparkles nicely and lasts well. The Montblanc, D & G and Pepe ones I also own and they are decent. Nice list.
Hey Ash recently i dont know when but Dollar Shave Club Came out with 2 great fragrence lines. Blueprint 100 line with fresh scents and the blueprint 200 line with darker scents. As well as beaing cheapies i picked up a bottle at TJ max for 13$. i think a review would make for a great video! Especially for the shocking quality for the price!
I really enjoy both Burberry Brit (classic) and Rythm Intense, I don't wanna say its a dumb reach but it could definitely be 😂 And then theres my grandpa wearing Allure Homme Sport at 80 years old, the man has taste 😅
I would pay double for costume national homme. Not a real cheapie, but the quality, the unique dna and the stunning performance makes this worth 100+ € for me.
Drakkar Noir was the first fragrance that I bought back when I was in the Marine Corps in the late 80's. Just picked up a new bottle last month and it still smells great if not as strong. The wife enjoys it to. I bought that Ferrari fragrance and that is the worst, migraine inducing fragrance I've ever used.
@@barloskoni2608 yeah I’m definitely willing, how would we be able to ship it? And I live in California so what would the shipping cost be from where you live? I appreciate it brother.
my dream: one day the fragrance-reviewers will get the Versace name right and pronounce it correctly. As Donatella Versace herself said" "It is Versace, not Versacey". But all the reviewers say "Versageeeee" instead of "Versageh". So, big and difficult dream
Hello Ash, how are you?I'm digging the video and list. LALIQUE L'HOMMAGE IS SO NICE. I WOULD PAY DOUBLE BURBERRY TOUCH I REALLY LIKE IT! STAY SAFE BROTHER
Some I'd pay double for: Alvarez Gomez Barberia EDP The Body Shop White Musk for Men Lalique Encre Noire Lalique Encre Noire A L'Extreme Davidoff Zino Issey Miyake L'Eau Bleue de Issey Montblanc Starwalker Boucheron Jaipur
Givenchy Gentlemen Only did actually have a sports version (looked similar to the 3rd bottle at the back) and it was OUTSTANDING. that was in 2015/16 ish. Not sure what really happened to it - aka discontinued - but it was fantastic. Does anyone else remember it? Seems like it went under the radar and I’m not sure why - probably because it was out before RUclipsrs bastardised everything.
I never see love for L'eau D'issey Pour Homme, it's always the intense that I see getting brought up. The Pour Homme is definitely one I'd pay double for, it reminds me of really fresh linen at an expensive resort. Funny thing with it though, when I wear it people just assume I have really clean clothes. I've never been asked what fragrance I'm wearing, I'm asked what laundry detergent I used.
Alfred Sung - Hei Hummer - H2 (yellow one) Azzaro - Visit ( so glad to see in the vid) Claiborne - Bora Bora I wish Armani would bring back Armani Mania and Givenchy to bring back Givenchy Play and Play Intense. Just throwing it out there.
Great video Ash. I’d pay double for Guess 1981 LA. Spicier Eros. It just works great for me. Puts me in a great mood and coworkers like it. My wife actually doesn’t mind this one either.
Joel Cullers The Bat of Gotham... I like that. That would make for a much better movie title than The Batman. I still can't believe they named it that. 🤔
Quorum Silver is fairly close to Azzaro Visit and you get a touch of the OG in the opening.. cheaper then Visit as well.. But QS is $14-$15 and Visit is $20-ish. So…. Buy em both.
To be sincere, I’m kind of scared this day’s pulling that trigger on cheap fragrances mostly bcuz of how they smell & their performance … sometimes they might be too synthetic mostly doing summer .. I do have pretty much of these cheapie’s in my collections but haven’t used them in over 5 year’s .
I gotta say legend spirit is my favorite scent right now as the smell is so easy foing and it goes fantastic with my skin, i spray it on my chest and i can smell it through a shower👌
@@howtorawk Unfortunately, not that great. Average at best (about 4 hours). But it's a great fragrance. It's an iteration of The One that can be worn in warm weather.
This titel is going to ruin the prices at the discounters, I noticed how some fragrance discounters would increase the prices of very cheap fragrances once fragrance youtubers talk about it, one clear example is Notino with Encre Noir once Jeremy kept recommending it for a while and there were many others
No matter how nice a Joop scent is, I just can't buy it. Their OG Homme fragrance just infuriates me to this day, it's SO obnoxious. So I can't with that fragrance house. I just can't.
10:33 i had a bottle of hommage a l'homme last year but it just wasn't my thing. idk if the bottle had gone bad or what, but the scent barely lasted on me, and it just smelled like a mix of gasoline and tea. maybe that was the scent profile, but i eventually got rid of it because i couldn't see myself wear it.
Bogart pour homme is one of the most disgusting fragrances I have ever smelled. It spoiled fragrances with a similar vibe for me like Pure Havane or Naxos. 😓
This is my issue, I listen to your breakdown of notes and A lot of these fragrances sound great, but then I notice "We" truly must have different noses, once you said you like Drakkar Noir it threw me off so much, to me that is one of the nastiest scents I've ever smelled, now I question if I should be listening to you LOL. this isn't meant to be a rude comment, I was just pointing out how fascinating it is how people perceive different smells and of course I'll keep listening, I think your videos are great and very informative and you do them in a kinda fun way.
It truly is like that tho, everyones sense of smell is different. I usually use sauvage, cause i got hella comments from it. Either that or Dylan Blue. Both great. But Sauvage gets me alot of compliments. However there was once that someone said it smelled bad. So it really depends.
Drakkar noir is the best fragrance ever created imo. It's all subjective. Some of us are from that era. My most complimented fragrance through the 90's
@@jamiebackhus900 yeah lol I grew up in that era, it was the "Preferred Stock" "Gravity" and I think "Cool Water" days, for me. I remember getting Drakkar Noir and it was really disgusting, might be the Lavender or the mixture of. i almost barfed. My older brother actually liked it so i gave it to him. his girlfriend thought it was disgusting as well lol
@@MajorStaticX Its got a hint of sweetness and a bit of a soury smell, go test it out. I personally think it smells great. Its a great everyday perfume aswell. Not the strongest scent, but certainly not weak. Gotten alot of compliments from it aswell.

Hey Ash why don't you make a new rendition on that Versace " The Dreamer" with Michael Maul connection you got???
One i discovered is Boss number 1, that throwback feel with a strong honey sirupy dry down is just amazing even on my skin, really great buy.
My first fragrance I bought ... still have an original bottle.

Drakkar Noir is still awesome IMO, Legend Spirit is fantastic. I'd add Versace Blue Jeans, Tommy Hilfiger Cologne & L'Eau d'Issey pour Homme.
The One Grey: thanks for reminding me about my 1 Oz bottle. Great year round fragrance.
Gotta order the big bottle so I don't run out.
Quorum and Drakkar brings me back to the 90’s
Grandpa here. Like the Bogart, The Dreamer opening, the Azzaro Visit is mind blowing
I loved the Gentlemen Only line! I started collecting when those we're coming out and I have to bottles of the first one.

Got the L'eau D'Issey Intense for 1/4 the retail price and that was probably one of the best buys I've had!
You and the wife need to start some type of reality show ASAP my guy! Your personality is killer 💯🙏🏾

I’m 52. School disco when I was 14 . Fragrance choice ( my dads ) Quorum , Kouros or Draakar ! 🤣.
That Kenzo Jungle Homme is great! Thanks for including that!
Doesn't last long sadly

Givenchy neo , armani attitude, Ralph lauren romance silver and Givenchy play all classic scents that are ridiculously priced
Great video with some great choices in there and have a blessed day
Avon Absolute by Elite Gentleman is definately one for me which I would recommend trying. Costs next to nothing and smells awesome.
Ajmal mizyaan... its my go to and blends PERFECTLY with an oud base... stays for days in your fabric
Bogart Pour Homme at last :D I recommend it everytime, when someone wants cheapie under 15 usd.
I have a bottle and would give it away for free. I don't like it at all.

Hello Ash, how are you?I'm digging the video and list. LALIQUE L'HOMMAGE IS SO NICE. I WOULD PAY DOUBLE BURBERRY TOUCH I REALLY LIKE IT! STAY SAFE BROTHER
Any of the men's Guerlains that fall in the $30-50 range. I'm partial to Guerlain Homme myself.
Great video and list, Ash! Agree with pretty much all of these. 👍
Burberry Brit Rythem Intense is really complex and interesting for the price.
But doesn't last long sadly
@@cengizgokce81 mine lasts an ok amount of time
Some I'd pay double for:
Alvarez Gomez Barberia EDP
The Body Shop White Musk for Men
Lalique Encre Noire
Lalique Encre Noire A L'Extreme

Issey Miyake L'Eau Bleue de Issey
Montblanc Starwalker

Hay Ash, I know you are a big fan of Drakkar so you definitely have to try Ceasers Man, smells like it but even better!
Man Made 18.21 Sweet Tobacco, I’d pay triple for it!
Gentlemen Only Intense is a pretty legit darker flanker in the line..
Might be able to find it still for a reasonable price..
I never see love for L'eau D'issey Pour Homme, it's always the intense that I see getting brought up. The Pour Homme is definitely one I'd pay double for, it reminds me of really fresh linen at an expensive resort.

@Danny Bell 🤣👍
I was debating should I grab the pour homme, @Danny Bell you helped me make my choice
Pepe made great quality clothes back in 90’ sold at Dillards. They disappeared from the lime light of us
You should check out Tommy Hilfiger summer ocean wave. Hardly any information on it and it’s incredible for the price
Alfred Sung - Hei
Hummer - H2 (yellow one)
Azzaro - Visit ( so glad to see in the vid)
Claiborne - Bora Bora
I wish Armani would bring back Armani Mania and Givenchy to bring back Givenchy Play and Play Intense. Just throwing it out there.
Azzaro “Chrome Pure”. I bought a spare
Versace “The Dreamer” dry down is A+
Bogart Pour Homme is no longer in 15$ range its now close to 30$.
I'm on my sixth bottle but its getting hard to find these days.
I love Gentlemen Only. One of my faves. I'd probably also pay double for Cartier Declaration Parfum.
Great video Ash. I’d pay double for Guess 1981 LA. Spicier Eros. It just works great for me. Puts me in a great mood and coworkers like it. My wife actually doesn’t mind this one either.
Bogart pour homme smells like layering Versace dreamer with joop homme… and D’issey intense is a masterpiece.. it’s what the bat of Gotham wears
Joel Cullers The Bat of Gotham... I like that. That would make for a much better movie title than The Batman. I still can't believe they named it that. 🤔
I agree with Quorum. It never gets respect. I could also go for some Azarro Por Homme!
Quorum Silver is fairly close to Azzaro Visit and you get a touch of the OG in the opening.. cheaper then Visit as well.. But QS is $14-$15 and Visit is $20-ish.
So…. Buy em both.
Naxos is definitely something I’d be willing to pay double for. Insanely well blended
Now that would be big money!
@@GentsScents 😆👌🏼
I love Hommage a L' Homme...
Hommage A L’Homme is beyond legit.
The One Grey, I love it, who craps on that?
To be sincere, I’m kind of scared this day’s pulling that trigger on cheap fragrances mostly bcuz of how they smell & their performance … sometimes they might be too synthetic mostly doing summer .. I do have pretty much of these cheapie’s in my collections but haven’t used them in over 5 year’s .
What about No Limmit$ Phillipp Plein
I gotta say legend spirit is my favorite scent right now as the smell is so easy foing and it goes fantastic with my skin, i spray it on my chest and i can smell it through a shower👌
Burberry brit rhythm
Definitely an underrated fragrance price and performance wise
I bought all Just Jack fragrances 4x!
Bogart Pour Homme is also under $20.
even the current formula polo green smells alot better than quorum lol
l"hommage is some serious s*** quality wise though
Bogart does not smell funky powder with tonka and florals? Burberry touch tonka smells like old lady powder.
Wow! I'm actually wearing D&G The One Grey today!!
👍😁
How is the performance?
@@howtorawk Unfortunately, not that great. Average at best (about 4 hours). But it's a great fragrance. It's an iteration of The One that can be worn in warm weather.

I LOVE D&G The One Grey. Don’t tell anyone, but… I think I might like it better than The One EDT🥴… maybe even the EDP😳
Hugo boss private accord seems to be discontinued... very sad

i would even pay TRIPLE for NIKE Man Blue.
Even AFNAN 9PM lost to it in terms of price.
Just picked up Bogart Pour Homme
What's your take on Paco ultraviolet?
I actually have unopened bottles of Visit and Dreamer. (I paid $19.99 each.)
Has anyone tried laura biagiotti " passione Roma?.... Thinking of blind buying...

Bogart pour homme is one of the most disgusting fragrances I have ever smelled. It spoiled fragrances with a similar vibe for me like Pure Havane or Naxos. 😓

I would pay double the original retail for Nombre Noir.
First time I smelled Burberry rhythm, i almost puked. I don't know if it was a bad bottle, but that thing smells too cheap and unpleasant on my skin.
for me GIVENCHY XERYUS ROUGE is the perfume i will double pay for
day 88 of asking for a Maison Margiela’s replica line review👍🏻
Burberry Brit is discontinued and it is not cheap
*Music>ruclips.net/video/FYOBapgRQhQ/видео.html
Paco Rabanne Pour Homme.
Next video: Fragrances Id pay triple for.
None of this list will buy once
Lalique Hommage is a fantastic fragrance
D&G The One Grey, Versace The Dreamer shouldn't have excited 🥴🤢
