@@juanjerez6370performance is not a joke. it lasts days on clothes, and more than 5 hours on skin. just because you cant smell it doesnt mean the sillage isn't still there.
100% agree with Layton exclusif, when I read reviews many said Layton was more crowd pleasing however I’ve gotten SO many compliments with exclusif and the projection and longevity is 11/10
I love Kalan! It’s like an airy sweetness with a floral center, to my nose. I’ve seen how many people claim to dislike it, but I love it! For me it’s a bit of a wildcard, full moon, creative adventurous night out with friends, in a coastal city ✨🌕 I think it’s loud. I’d be wearing orange or red, funky shoes and some crystals with this one. It’s definitely like an eccentric, alluring, polarizing artist’s fragrance. The performance is toppppp notch too
For those not too familiar with the PDM line based on scent profile, ease of wear, versatility, everyday, every season, all round projection, sillage, longevity, being inoffensive... a fragrance 99% of ppl would enjoy smelling on you, Percival would be the best choice. There's this weird hate towards it because it's straight forward, inoffensive and just works lool like the fact that it's so well rounded is it's downfall now 😂
Yes. They say it smells like just another designer blue fragrance.. but I honestly think it is the best of everything a blue fragrance has to offer.. and the longevity factor
@@mr.brooks9802 you're right it doesn't have a niche profile, but it is high quality. Everything I mentioned as well as having a great blend and quality ingredients. Price will always be subjective but I think a high quality everyday fragrance that covers all seasons and all situations with longevity, performance, scent profile and compliment factor shouldnt get lost because it doesn't have a weird coffee note or something 😂
Haltane and layton exclusif are straight up masterpieces. Period. Yes, masterpieces. Ppl stop dead in their tracks. A woman once stared at me like i'm some anomaly when i walked by wearing layton exclusif. She just stared at me mouth open.😂
Kalan was my first ever PDM purchase lol I was at the mall and I smelled about 10 of them and as soon as I smelled Kalan I was so caught off guard with how different it was that I immediately bought it. I totally understand if you don't like it because it's a very different smell from the rest of their instant crowd-pleasing selections. I love basically every PDM fragrance and my current favorites are Layton, Althair, and Herod because of how easy they are to wear. Kalan is a random reach for me but I still love it to this day.
I love how we interpret scents differently. Layton exclusif is one of my favourites of all time and I was surprised to see pegasus exclusif so low. To me pegasus exclusif smells exactly like layton exclusif but without the apple note.
Galloway is ranked higher than Carlisle and Oajan? Watching your vids over time it seems you are not the biggest fan of Sweeter scents or Middle Eastern accords. Woodier, aromatic, more traditional masculine scents seem to score higher with your nose. I respect your opinion. Thanks for all you do.
Considering to blind buy Layton Exlusif. What do you say ? Worth trying ? I am a Tom ford Fan, i love and own most of the private blend collection. You think I could hit the spot with this blind buy on Layton Exlusif?
@@adriatics.3357 yeah i have , currently have it. Menthol and faint apple in the opening and in the drydown it is pretty much just vanilla. Al Haramain Détour Noir is aclone of layton. very very close. so if you wanan try it, buy Detour Noir for like 30 dollars and see if you like it
My spouse works for Pdm so I get to preview stuff before it hits the market. You have to check out narcotics delight from initio line. New one coming out in March called perseus- it’s citrusy and I like it for me!! I smell grapefruit and love it!
I couldn't disagree more about Percival. Stuff is straight up phenomenal. It's garnered more compliments for me than literally every other fragrance I own, combined. Layton is so insanely over-rated.
The knock on Percival is, it’s basic for the price. Ur paying 200 bucks for a blue-ish fragrance, and it’s not really complex. I love it however, but most people when they spend that much money on a fragrance, they want it to have a ‘wow factor’ and that’s jus not existent in Percival
Just purchased Haltane over Althair and as soon as I did I came to your channel MC. Been following your channel for years but have been out of the market for some time. Always have enjoyed your opinions and scent profile as it’s closely mirrors mine. Great to hear your take on Haltane. My wife loved it as well especially in the dry down.
I finally found your cologne channel! Not sure why it took me so long 😂 I’m a woman but I’ve loved Althair, and this fall I got a small decant of that and of Oajan from Scentsplit. I’m obsessed with Oajan. I’ve only tried Angels Share on my skin once, but I find Oajan much better and more interesting. It’s so hard for me to commit to buying from PDM because of the cost (the only one I have is Delina La Rosée, which is my top favorite perfume), but I’m really considering saving up for a full bottle of Oajan now
I just spent $370 at Nordstroms for the Layton Exclusif. I literally know nothing about cologne but women behind the counter said she liked it the best and I took her word. Seems she was right and I made the right move
1.kalan 2.haltane 3.althair 4.oajan. 5.layton Oddly Kalan is one of my complimented Pdm and personally one of my fav fragrances and ,althair kinda reminds me off Mercedes black just a bit more juicy tho
May I say, I love the way you described each fragrance, it’s a unique perspective, it’s not just notes, it’s how they are actually perceived. I have Kalan, I very much like it but I don’t disagree that it could be polarizing. I get this very bright, crisp orange citrus with floral undertones, and a bit of spice in the opening. The sweetness and lavender are just so fresh and bright. When it dries down and develops it becomes woody and blends with the florals and the spice softens. Once got a compliment that it’s very nice and woody 😅 The key is not to overspray, it’s such an overpowering scent. Even just spraying on my fingers and rubbing on heat points, it projects like a monster sometimes especially in high heat, so it is daring. It’s better for probably mid spring sunny weather where it’ll be earthy and floral.
Either me or my son own the following PdMs, so I wear them regularly and have pretty refined preferences. The others I have all tried, and none has caused me to purchase it yet. Obviously, PdM is my favorite house. 1. Pegasus Exclusif 2. Herod 3. Layton 4 (tie). Layton Exclusif Galloway (by FAR the best pure fresh PdM-very underrated) 6. Carlisle 7. Sedley (performance is adequate, not great) 8. Kalan (no longer care for this one) VERY FOND of the top 6.
IMO percival is better than sedley, percival opening is amazing, the mid amazing, the drydown amazing, sedley is great but the first 2 hours it smells like synthetic lemon mixed with sprite, after that it settles and the lavender kicks in which smells GREAT, just my opinion, the best from the house is OAJAN for me, but the best freshie is a toss up between PERCIVAL and greenley.
My wife told me I smelled like a portaloo when i just bought my bottle of greenley. I was soooo sad since i loved it :/... And yeah I've got a bottle of Layton exclusif too and you are totally right! It's AMAZING!
I think yall fragrance RUclipsrs are trying to gatekeep Kalan. I smelled a sample of it and almost got knocked off my feet. Went and immediately bought a 125ml bottle. It's comfortably in my top 3 frags, along with Herod and Naxos.
Apart from number one it‘s nearly the exact opposite for me as a man. I love Athaïr, Percival and Kalan. These are the scents I use together with Layton Exclusif. Unfortunately, I haven‘t found a PDM scent for spring time. May I try some Xerjoff stuff…
Torino21>Uden>Mefisto>Nio>Renaissance>Mefisto Gentiluomo in that order for me of the Xerjoff’s I’ve tried suitable for spring. Naxos and 40 knots could work too, love Naxos but didn’t click with 40 knots. For some reason, Xerjoff makes me a little nauseous but they def have a lot to offer for warm weather. You should also try MFK gentle fluidity silver it’s incredible
@@James-xm3ex Sure those are all very nice but I say walk pass those and grab Tony Iommi Monkey Special as it ROCKS I mean it is a Rock star scent and works great in the spring!
@@scarabeo500gt I thought it was heavier and not very spring-like. I don't really like rose anyways and I absolutely can't do rum notes most of the time. Even Uden I reached for again and I'm now put off by it lmao
@@James-xm3ex I get what your saying and you know best your likes! For me its the Dragon fruit that is the star and stands out and I can pin point the rest in there - Best Wishes...
There is no way Percival should rank second from the bottom. Fresh, musky, sexy, all-year fragrance. I received compliments from three women over several months. Lasts 8 hours and very good projection.
Percival is quite good. It always gets me compliments and had one person go right out and buy the bottle. Greenley kills them all and gets me insane compliments.
@@jdmb03 Not people ob the street, but most people I know hive me compliments when they actually like what I’m wearing. Probably because I’m one of the few people I know that actually uses high quality stuff.
I’m just surprised to see Percival so low overall, I can’t really comment, never smelled it but everyone seems to like Percival a lot beside that its a good rank up I think 👍
Good to see Habdan being mentioned. Most seem to ignore it. No idea why. I think it's incredible. People always want to know what I'm wearing when I'm wearing Habdan.
Galloway drydown is 🔥. Kalan,carlisle,pegasus,Herod,layton. I don't see how you can't love althaïr. I can keep going love pdm,initio my favorite house. Darley is a good freshie. Definitely not althaïr is not like 1 million
I never understood the appeal for Layton Exclusif. I tried it multiple times, for me it loses the speacial qualties Layton has but adds nothing that raises it above. On my skin it is just bitter and unpleasing. My top3 is: 1. Layton 2. Carlisle 3. Herod ... and my +1 is Darley, just for the clean twist it has.
I think we all agree that PDM is an elegant and quality house! Ranking is matter of taste. I have 21 full bottles in 4.2 oz from this brand and each ones are special and are my babies.
Hey Monica. Great video. As I realized you also considered longevity and projection as factors in order to rank. Can I know ur ranking only based on sexiness on a man?
@@jesse5876100 I've blindly purchased two full-sized bottles... on a whim. Personally, it was a hit... even better than (most) CREED colognes. I'm sure you'll enjoy the aroma/scent of PdM-HALTANE; and along with the compliments.
Which out of these three parfum de marlys would ypu choose. Herod, pegasus, Layton, carlisle, layton exclusive and or Blue de Chanel Parfum. Which of those would you pick?
@@Tunechi1600my favorite of those, in order, is Carlisle, Layton Exclusif, Herod, Layton and then Pegasus. Layton is probably the most versatile if you only want to wear one fragrance, but Carlisle isn’t far behind and it’s better. Layton Ex is probably the most challenging one of those but I think it’s unique and amazing.
1 Layton 2 Carlisle 3 Herod 4 Oajan 5 Layton Exclusif 6 Althair 7 Sedley / Greenley Those are the ones I have bottles of. Women go crazy for Althair!!!!! I sold my Percival.
Hey Monika, thanks for your well produced videos and your entertaining content, presented by a lovely woman with an angelic, calming, warming voice, which is catching and soooo addictive to hear... I agree with most things you have told. I also dont like Kalan. These dominant burnt rubber baccara rouge vibes dont fit very well to the grapefruit and woodsy notes imho. This thing is demanding and disharmonic to me. Althair is quite ok, but not worth the hype, nothing very innovative. Just mix by the fireplace or even cheaper lattafa ameer al oudh intense with nikos sculpture homme and you get pretty much althair for 40 bucks. Oajan is mainly about honey, you didnt mention this. I also love Layton but disagree with the seasons... this stuff is Christmas in a bottle, pretty sweet, dense and too much for the summer heat imho. I think Percival is underrated. Yes its a shower gel freshie with a bit spicynes and it reminds of A&F Fierce, but with a clearly niche level twist. Layton Exclusif on no.1 is okay for me. Really addictive, interesting and deep fragrance I just cant get enough of. I would have ranked Carlisle a bit higher. Real Masterpiece of an oriental scent and it just smells so elegant, expensive and timlessly seductive. One of very few male perfumes that knows how to use a rose note without leaning too much on the female side.
Yes althair has this synthetic sort of metallic smell but it goes after 8 hours and then it smell beautiful! This perfume eminds me of le male elixir...
I agree, Sedley and Layton are my favorites. I don’t really care about percival. Sedley smells so much better to me and lasts fairly long for how minty fresh it is.
I loved Layton when I first got it, but now I'm not sure why, but all I smell from it is menthol or dare I say it, Vicks Vapo Rub???!?? My bottle is only a year old, so I know it's not turned or gone bad. I definitely prefer Layton Exclusif! And in regards to Kalan, I can't quite wrap my head around it! I wore it one time to the gym and I had a bad experience with vertigo, so now the only time I can wear it is when I have nasal cold and I can't smell it! LOL! Cheers you guys!
Girl, you cost me so much money! 🙂 Thanks for reviewing this line. I was particularly interested it, as I do love Herod and Haltane but was interested in thoughts about some of the others.
Pegasus is a strong clean almond / vanilla scent that leaves women asking “what is that you are wearing, it is so mysteriously simple yet sweet and sexy”. Just as she said, it makes women shy as they are speechless.
I don’t think it’s a good deal personally , it confused me at first , got the 4.2 oz a week ago , sprayed it it didn’t even last for 4 hours , so i left the bottle in the box , and came back to it yesterday , sprayed one spray and i can still smell it on my clothes , but enjoy regardless of the deal.
As a pdm (wear) I agree with your ranking 👌👌however, there is no big difference between Layton and Layton exclusive please what is your 2024 summer perfume ranking (regardless the price ),
My wife got me a bottle of Percival for Christmas, very similar to Vodka on the rocks by Killian. She absolutely loves it and i too think it’s a lovely fresh scent. Each to their own i suppose 🤔😐

you underestimate Percival, most of the time women loves a scent that is simple and fresh on a man that are not too offensive on the nose.
So true. I get compliments. Every. 👏 Single. 👏 Time.
she isn't wrong though. It's just an expensive dupe of mont blanc legend EDT or Abercrombie fierce.
Bet you never smelt Percival and thats for sure@@Michael-eq1ru
Percival just feels uncreative. It smells good but it’s not spectacular
Just wear Bleu de chanel then, why spend like $250 on a PDM just to smell simple and fresh
My top 5 PDMs:
1. Carlisle 👑
2. Layton
3. Greenly
4. Percival (most complimented)
5. Althaïr
Not having Herod in top 5 makes your list a joke
Love and have all four, except Carlisle which I find weak. I find Herod a little weaker, but own it as well. Greenley gets me insane compliments.
@@danielb.1567 that’s your ignorant opinion, it’s not on my list because it only last 5 hours or less, the performance is a joke
@@juanjerez6370performance is not a joke. it lasts days on clothes, and more than 5 hours on skin. just because you cant smell it doesnt mean the sillage isn't still there.
For me Carlisle is my favourite Just from Layton.
1 Greenley
2 Althair
3 Layton
4 Percival
5 Sedley
6 Herod
Greenley is a beast on me that gets me literally tons of compliments.
*figurative tons
My personal top 3 -
1. Carlilse
2. Haltane
3. Layton
100% agree with Layton exclusif, when I read reviews many said Layton was more crowd pleasing however I’ve gotten SO many compliments with exclusif and the projection and longevity is 11/10
I agree with you but The exclusif best for cool/cold seasons but the OG Layton. Is year round
I love Kalan! It’s like an airy sweetness with a floral center, to my nose. I’ve seen how many people claim to dislike it, but I love it! For me it’s a bit of a wildcard, full moon, creative adventurous night out with friends, in a coastal city ✨🌕 I think it’s loud. I’d be wearing orange or red, funky shoes and some crystals with this one. It’s definitely like an eccentric, alluring, polarizing artist’s fragrance. The performance is toppppp notch too
It's 🔥
Yes the dry down is amazing!
Althair is my favorite ever from them
For those not too familiar with the PDM line based on scent profile, ease of wear, versatility, everyday, every season, all round projection, sillage, longevity, being inoffensive... a fragrance 99% of ppl would enjoy smelling on you, Percival would be the best choice. There's this weird hate towards it because it's straight forward, inoffensive and just works lool like the fact that it's so well rounded is it's downfall now 😂
My most complimented by a mile
Doesn’t have a niche profile but has the niche price. I think that’s the real knock on it
Yes. They say it smells like just another designer blue fragrance.. but I honestly think it is the best of everything a blue fragrance has to offer.. and the longevity factor
Percival is the best PDM. I'll take the basic bro insult.
@@mr.brooks9802 you're right it doesn't have a niche profile, but it is high quality. Everything I mentioned as well as having a great blend and quality ingredients.

Carlisle, Herod and Pegasus are my 3 favorite fragrances from PDM.
Althair,Layton,sedley, Carlisle, are my favorites. Percival is my everyday scent for running errands but I’m neutral on it.
are you jeff bezos kid?
Layton Exclusif is the king! Love Haltane too
Haltane and layton exclusif are straight up masterpieces. Period. Yes, masterpieces. Ppl stop dead in their tracks. A woman once stared at me like i'm some anomaly when i walked by wearing layton exclusif. She just stared at me mouth open.😂
Just got greenley for the holidays and to be honest it's my favorite out of the Parfums De Marly line.
Sedley is so uplifting and beautiful! I'm wearing it today in 30F weather in Minnesota and it is just fantastic!
I’m from MN as well, do you recommend any other PDMs? I own Carlisle and Percival so far
@@derekrc5737 Another Minnesotan here. I own a lot of them and my favorites so far are Haltane and Oajan.
Mike from MN! I'm thinking about buying Sedley. How is the longevity and projection? Can you smell it at least 7hrs?
@michaelgonzalez3078 good longevity but not much for projection. Skin scent for me after a couple of hours

Layton Exclusif is too good. I hope everyone buys Carlisle 😃
I love how we interpret scents differently. Layton exclusif is one of my favourites of all time and I was surprised to see pegasus exclusif so low. To me pegasus exclusif smells exactly like layton exclusif but without the apple note.
Layton exclusif has no apple note... It's been ommited in it, and its one of the big differences to the original.
I have creed and it reminds me too much of creed aventus. I would get it if I didn’t have creed
I agree. Very similar smokey oud drydowns.
@@tavo.officialLayton exclusif smells like Aventus?
Galloway is ranked higher than Carlisle and Oajan? Watching your vids over time it seems you are not the biggest fan of Sweeter scents or Middle Eastern accords. Woodier, aromatic, more traditional masculine scents seem to score higher with your nose. I respect your opinion. Thanks for all you do.

Great list Monika. I would have had Percival higher but I cannot argue with your 2 and number 1 Happy New Year from Toronto Canada !!❤
Haltane , Herod , Layton , Althair and Carlisle is the top 5 of parfums de Marly , and Percival is for a daily wear.

@@jdmb03 Not people ob the street, but most people I know hive me compliments when they actually like what I’m wearing. Probably because I’m one of the few people I know that actually uses high quality stuff.
Armani code parfum vs allure home sport eau extreme which one is better and safe, compliments
Chanel . Can't go wrong with it
@@timarinkin4788 sure?
AHSEE is on many RUclipsrs top 10/most complimented lists
Allure hone sport winner all the time , even shower and can still smell it
allure homme sport eau extreme, code parfum is great but not as AMAZING as CAHSEA
I’m just surprised to see Percival so low overall, I can’t really comment, never smelled it but everyone seems to like Percival a lot beside that its a good rank up I think 👍
It was my first pdm and it’s beautiful just got Herod really good also
Good to see Habdan being mentioned. Most seem to ignore it. No idea why. I think it's incredible. People always want to know what I'm wearing when I'm wearing Habdan.
My top 3:
1) Carlisle
2) Layton Exclusif
3) Pegasus
My top 5
- Carlisle
- Herod
- Haltane
- Oajan
- Layton Exclusif
Galloway drydown is 🔥. Kalan,carlisle,pegasus,Herod,layton. I don't see how you can't love althaïr. I can keep going love pdm,initio my favorite house. Darley is a good freshie. Definitely not althaïr is not like 1 million
I get compliments when i wear Kalan. My wife LOVES it especially at the dry down
Haltane is my number 1, I have never smell a parfurm before, were I just had to have it instantly ❤
Interesting video. Can you do this type of video with ADG?
After many search...
For me: Galloway for hot days
Haltane for cold days
Layton for the between
Darley is the best. Not strange. Not abstract. Not loud. Not too subtle. Very classy, versatile, and refined.

I never understood the appeal for Layton Exclusif. I tried it multiple times, for me it loses the speacial qualties Layton has but adds nothing that raises it above. On my skin it is just bitter and unpleasing.
My top3 is:
1. Layton
2. Carlisle
3. Herod
... and my +1 is Darley, just for the clean twist it has.
Pegasus, Layton and Oajan for me!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
I guess we have similar taste. I own Layton, Layton Exclusif and Haltane.
I think we all agree that PDM is an elegant and quality house! Ranking is matter of taste. I have 21 full bottles in 4.2 oz from this brand and each ones are special and are my babies.
Hey Monica. Great video. As I realized you also considered longevity and projection as factors in order to rank. Can I know ur ranking only based on sexiness on a man?
late but my top 3 would be
1. oajan
2. haltane
3. althair
Kalan under appreciated
Agree for Layton Exclusif ❤
I do not agree with what you said about Percival. It's a beautiful summery perfume which actually has a good projection and last more than 5 hours
At first I hated Layton exclusif, but after sampling it for a few days I fell in love
Same 100% from eggs to Royal.....
Layton Exclusif for the win 🙌🏻😍
HALTANE #1... my personal favorite ROGUE cologne.
I'm getting ready to buy this haltane I smelled it at the mall and I love it it almost has that smell of oud for greatness
@@jesse5876100 I've blindly purchased two full-sized bottles... on a whim. Personally, it was a hit... even better than (most) CREED colognes. I'm sure you'll enjoy the aroma/scent of PdM-HALTANE; and along with the compliments.
I’m surprised how low Pegasus Ex is considering how high Layton Ex is on your list. Those 2 are so similar to me, I love them both.
Which out of these three parfum de marlys would ypu choose. Herod, pegasus, Layton, carlisle, layton exclusive and or Blue de Chanel Parfum. Which of those would you pick?
@@Tunechi1600my favorite of those, in order, is Carlisle, Layton Exclusif, Herod, Layton and then Pegasus.
Layton is probably the most versatile if you only want to wear one fragrance, but Carlisle isn’t far behind and it’s better. Layton Ex is probably the most challenging one of those but I think it’s unique and amazing.
1 Layton
2 Carlisle
3 Herod
4 Oajan
5 Layton Exclusif
6 Althair
7 Sedley / Greenley
Those are the ones I have bottles of. Women go crazy for Althair!!!!!
I sold my Percival.
I love kalan so much, alreasy bought 1 backup bottle, i also have carlisle and layton, but kalan is my sotd.
Hey Monika,
thanks for your well produced videos and your entertaining content, presented by a lovely woman with an angelic, calming, warming voice, which is catching and soooo addictive to hear...
I agree with most things you have told. I also dont like Kalan. These dominant burnt rubber baccara rouge vibes dont fit very well to the grapefruit and woodsy notes imho. This thing is demanding and disharmonic to me.
Althair is quite ok, but not worth the hype, nothing very innovative. Just mix by the fireplace or even cheaper lattafa ameer al oudh intense with nikos sculpture homme and you get pretty much althair for 40 bucks.
Oajan is mainly about honey, you didnt mention this.
I also love Layton but disagree with the seasons... this stuff is Christmas in a bottle, pretty sweet, dense and too much for the summer heat imho.
I think Percival is underrated. Yes its a shower gel freshie with a bit spicynes and it reminds of A&F Fierce, but with a clearly niche level twist.
Layton Exclusif on no.1 is okay for me. Really addictive, interesting and deep fragrance I just cant get enough of.
I would have ranked Carlisle a bit higher. Real Masterpiece of an oriental scent and it just smells so elegant, expensive and timlessly seductive. One of very few male perfumes that knows how to use a rose note without leaning too much on the female side.
Yes althair has this synthetic sort of metallic smell but it goes after 8 hours and then it smell beautiful! This perfume eminds me of le male elixir...
So happy for your ranking. Own layton exclusif, layton, percival, sedley, carlisle, haltane next.
My top 3 PdM's are:
1. Carlisle (best ever)
2. Sedley (90's summer)
3. Oajan (boozy magician)
I smell them all but I would personally go for Carlisle ❣️ But It wasn't love 😘 at first smell mind you 😎
I agree, Sedley and Layton are my favorites. I don’t really care about percival. Sedley smells so much better to me and lasts fairly long for how minty fresh it is.
My #1 would be Layton and #2 Sedley
Layton, Herod and Haltane my winter favorite. Galloway is a gem for the summer. Need to get Greenly next.
Is galloway worth the price? Im considering getting it
@@novvelski714yes bro I got my bottle from Aura Frahrances for 140$ for 125ml. It’s instantly one of my favs in the pdm line.
I love your top! So soft and feminine.
1. Layton
2. Greenley
3. Layton exclusif
4. Sedley
5. Hatane
I loved Layton when I first got it, but now I'm not sure why, but all I smell from it is menthol or dare I say it, Vicks Vapo Rub???!?? My bottle is only a year old, so I know it's not turned or gone bad. I definitely prefer Layton Exclusif! And in regards to Kalan, I can't quite wrap my head around it! I wore it one time to the gym and I had a bad experience with vertigo, so now the only time I can wear it is when I have nasal cold and I can't smell it! LOL! Cheers you guys!
Love the honesty with Carlisle ! One of the most overrated(🤢) PDM fragrances
100% , first time i smelled it my jaw literally started to shake, no joke
It is awesome
😂😂@@Katalin04
@@Katalin04In a good or bad way?
@@MrGoodBar83 bad, though after a few months it has gotten better it would still be 1 i wouldnt really wear, better go for herod

Kalan is one of most complimented parfums... for what it's worth I love it myself
Girl, you cost me so much money! 🙂
Thanks for reviewing this line. I was particularly interested it, as I do love Herod and Haltane but was interested in thoughts about some of the others.
Pegasus is a strong clean almond / vanilla scent that leaves women asking “what is that you are wearing, it is so mysteriously simple yet sweet and sexy”. Just as she said, it makes women shy as they are speechless.
Do u have a bottle of it? Is it old or new bottle
@@blagojmilosevski9547 very new
Layton Exclusif and Layton are interchangeable 1 and 2 depending on the mood I'm in. Herod, Haltane, Sedley then Althair.
pegasus, haltane and layton are my top 3 compliment-getter
just bought Layton Exclusif 4.2 OZ bottle for $399. is it good deal?
I don’t think it’s a good deal personally , it confused me at first , got the 4.2 oz a week ago , sprayed it it didn’t even last for 4 hours , so i left the bottle in the box , and came back to it yesterday , sprayed one spray and i can still smell it on my clothes , but enjoy regardless of the deal.
As a pdm (wear) I agree with your ranking 👌👌however, there is no big difference between Layton and Layton exclusive
please what is your 2024 summer perfume ranking (regardless the price ),
My wife got me a bottle of Percival for Christmas, very similar to Vodka on the rocks by Killian. She absolutely loves it and i too think it’s a lovely fresh scent. Each to their own i suppose 🤔😐
Agree with N1, i don’t recognise a perfume that is as beast as Layton Exclisuf
I love Kalan and Layton ❤ I am a woman but love wearing them
1. Carlisle
2. Layton Exclusif
3. Perseus
4. Layton
5. Herod
