A lot of these clones make a lot of expensive fragrances redundant buys. My take on this is this: pick the fragrances that you *absolutely* love. Keep those originals and use the clones to extend the life of those originals that you can't live without. As for the other ones, look at it like this: Now you have clones that can replace the ones that didn't make the *absolute* love list. Most expensive fragrances keep some sort of value, so sell them, keep the clones, and now you have a bit of extra cash to find other fragrances you might *absolutely* love.
Got this perfume this year. It smells very oriental, exactly what I was looking for, it actually surprised me. The orchid is there, vanilla also, and all the good resins also. It is a mature fragrance, not for youngsters. It’s very unisex, the florals are very feminine, the resins are very masculine, very balanced to me. It feels like a mix of te perfumes my mom and my dad used, my mom favored orchid perfumes, my dad strong amber ones. This is a perfect mix of nostalgia for me.
Picked up a bottle after Cuba randomly tried it at the start of his Lattafa kick. Great stuff, and it's finally getting cold enough to actually wear it. Great review man, keep them coming.
By itself it’s awesome. I usually put on 2 sprays of TF Tobacco Vanille or 2 sprays of Spice Bomb Extreme somewhere close to where I’ve sprayed EO. Just adding that hint of sweet tobacco kicks it up a notch in a way I really like.
Hi Troy, have you smelled the new formulation of MFK Grand Soir?.... After the Lilial problem there have been big houses that have trashed their fragrances. Musc Ravageur is an example. If you know anything about it you could do a mini review of the new formulations..... It wouldn't be fair to see a review from you of an unreformulated batch and get carried away with something that doesn't smell the same anymore. Thanks for the channel!!!. Your honesty is much appreciated
@@TroyD247Mall And you ask me😅?. You know that it has been banned by IFRA and the industry has withdrawn the bottles containing it, in addition to other references that I do not know if they really contained it but have also been reformulated. RM5, RM Sweet Rose, Musc Ravageur and I don't know about Grand Soir, which here in Europe was out of stock until a few weeks ago. There are many brands that have reformulated and do not offer the same performance as the fragrances reviewed.
LOL thats why I bought those mainstays back in the beginning, and i guess sadly they aren't the same now if thats the case but I personally have not tested this.
Thanks for well-detailed review👍 Eternal Oud is setting in the shopping car for 2 days deciding if I should get it or not, and I made my decision to get it Thanks
How many bottles of fragrance do you have?... I have 125 and I feel the same way as you do about obtaining new frags. I will •NEVER• use up all of my frags in my lifetime 🙂🙂
For the price, compared to designer brands, you get a full bottle for what you'd pay for a sample or decant lol. And if you don't like it, Lataffa prob do pretty well to resell
This is the first fragrance I’ve ever experienced that does not smell good on skin, but smells incredibly beautiful in the air. When I smell my arm on the spot, I have sprayed it does not smell the best. If I am wearing this fragrance and leave the room when I come back in.. the room smells so delicious and good. This is what I mean when I say how it smells in the air
This is their version of Grand Soir. No one distinctly shared this until you, so I believe I have a redundant purchase. Nice...but near a clone.
❤️
Grand Soir at a fraction of the cost

Dope review!! I did a review on this a while back and I enjoy this fragrance. This is beast mode it last all day.

Excellent review, thanks for sharing
Great review Troy ! I would say one more 😊
I'll keep em coming!
Please, where can I get the 20ml bottle from ?
Been holding off on this one. Time to pull the trigger
Take Nicky’s advice and just do it.

Good question man. My Grand Soir I got a couple years ago and I haven’t had any issues. What’s the Lilial problem?

I’d say about the same
Someone said in reviews it smells like a box of raisins, something a 80 year old woman wears. I was thinking to buy it.😢
Nah lol raisins ???
They are lying to you! Try it for yourself. Period.
buy a sample man. test it for youserlf

Naw...this stuff is no Bueno! I got the same sample from intense oud. This stuff straight stinks. It's loud sweet powdery club crap. Awful.
