I'm generally not into 'clones' or 'dupes' but the designer (and I suppose niche too?) prices have got out of hand in recent times, it's almost as if they 'want' people to buy dupes instead. I can see some perfumeries closing if* brands continue to increase prices so relentlessly on products which have massive mark up values (and thus big profit margins) as it is.
Don't know Tygar, but Turathi is so nice that I consider a great fragrance on it's own. Good sillage, but not very long lasting. I agree that it would be a 25+ fragrance
What's up brothers! .. I love Chad's reaction. I never seen him so excited for a fragrance for quite a while now I'm glad he liked it. Turathi Blue is top tier clone. Greetings from Texas 💪🏻🔥
As a kid at my uncles cottage we used to drink tons of pc sparklign grapefruit soda, reminds me a lot of that in the opening. Love it. Smells incredible, the price is just a bonus
I have this for almost 1year... I had Bleu de Channel edt and I prefer the Afnan over it... I got it for under 30$ here in Romania and I am very happy with it (especially because I love the presentation and I keep it in its original box)
@@AGentlemansJourney77 yeah, man... there are many gems from these Middle-Eastern houses... If you can get your nose on Mazaaj Infused by Zimaya - that would be right up your alley
@@superblaster01 Sorry. When I referred to OG I meant that the few clones I have are no brainers vs the OG (original, not cloned) so meaning OG is Tygar and Turathi Blue is the No Brainer clone that is worth it. Same for Layton (the OG) vs amber oud Blue Exclusif is the No Brainer clone that is worth getting
It's great when we get together to film, but sometimes the videos don't turn out because we are talking over one another, and it's hard to follow and to edit. I deleted 2 of the videos we filmed yesterday because of those issues. I still have one remaining which turned out well.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 - Maybe you can play “director” and give instructions about how long each person will speak, the speaking order and when it’s time for debates. Because honestly, the debates and mini arguments are always entertaining!
This is a VERY HYPED fragrance? Do you think its worth it? And don't mind Chad's flashy shirt, I bought him it for for a fun video we filmed before this one and he decided to keep it on for the remainder of our videos.
Gave this one away along with Theoreme (which is sweeter) because the woody amber was just too strong for me. To my nose, it's the same woody amber material used in Moustache edp. They just burn my nose. Can't deny how pleasant it is on clothing though. I remember hanging up my sweater in a room, and after coming back in, I smelled something akin to sweet earl grey tea. But up close it's like oily sandpaper to me. 😆
How can you go wrong buying this one? Yes a clone can out the original. Like North Stag 4. When I first bought it it smelled like only mandarin orange. I thought I had to add something to it. 6 months later after it matured I can smell the ginger and bergamont. Had a chance to sample Louis Vuitton Afternoon swim the other day. The scent barely lasted 2 hours. North Stag 4 last 6 hours easily. VERY CLOSE! Thanks for reviewing this.
Buying a dupe is disgracing originality of fragrance spirit. A noble brand like chanel with a great history puts effort and creativity to create a gentle scent and an inauthentic brand comes from nowhere and disgrace chanel by a cheap copycat. This is humiliating. These a*abic brands are ruining fragrance industry actually they are raping this industry/art by a d*ldo so called cheapy dupe or anything. Excuse me for my brutal hinesty. Also please don't say middle eastern, because that goddamn region you call middle east includes so many different countries and different cultures, it's impossible to direct them by same name, we shouldn't judge all of them by behavior of one of them. Please say name of the country that the brand belongs to.
Youre really boot licking corporate greed? 😂 If you're selling a product for a high price that gets outperformed by a similar product that costs 6 times less it's your fault for scamming your clients.
If you have any other product. I don't know, Netflix, gaming consoles, wood cutting tools etc. Of course you have the history and those, but if the niche companies mark up their perfumes so high and someone else enter the market with a cheaper price, then what does it say about the quality of the niche perfume? Of course they probably used higher quality ingredients. Instead of real oud it might be synthetic. And is that a problem, well no. Apply any other technology or product with perfume and it really starts to feel weird how we mark up niche perfumes and just accept it and be OK with it. And as soon someone wants to buy a cheaper alternative, they get called out on for not bending their backs. All for what, status? No one cares what bottle it is at home. Its all about how you smell
There’s absolutely no reason why Tygar should cost 400 dollars. Over pricing fragrances of course leads way to people making cheaper alternatives. This is how you create competition for the big guys.

You have a point and I can see that.
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day

Turathi blue is magnificent. From the scent, to the presentation, to the performance.
Don't know Tygar, but Turathi is so nice that I consider a great fragrance on it's own.

Thank you for stopping by and for sharing your thoughts.

I like this one alot and everytime I wear it I get compliments

Thanks for sharing and for watching. I wish I got my nose on this one earlier.

I don’t have many clones but the few I have are just no brainers vs the OG. Turathi Blue is one of them. Solid takes from you all
You said the OG. Has it been reformulated??

All 3 gave it the thumbs. I gotta test it out now
Is a very nice fragrance & very cheap.... I like it
I was very surprised myself. Thanks for watching.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 Yeah.... You're Welcome Chad🙏🙏
You gents do great work! I am going to look into this one.

Those are some interesting takes and opinions.
Great review ! 💯 definitely gonna grab it, do you think it's a good compliment getter?
I think so. I don't put any emphasis on compliments but I can see this getting some compliments.
@@AGentlemansJourney77 Thanks a lot 💯✌🏾

And thank you for watching. I just might look into that one. Some of these originals are just stupid expensive with pitiful performance.
Really like this one myself. Maybe it's just me but I get a little bit of Bleu De Chanel EDP smell for the first 10 minutes or so.
I can see a little bit of that.
Check out Ornament by Afnan, when you can. I'd like to see your opinion on it.
I think you guys finally pushed me to grab this one lol. Three Amigos strike again 😂
Good review guys
Thank you sir.
6:26 GET THIS!
smells incredibly synthetic to me. Sold it instantly.
0:16 Rush IN THE CORNER 😮 ….. 😂😂😂 don’t interrupt the master 😱
I talked about this one month ago to Junior 😭
2:48 . Freeze frame it 😂😂 you’re face 😂 when Rush took the situation 😜
6:03 NO @chadsecrest is the swediest 🇸🇪 😂
I was thinking about a certain someone from Germany when he did that LOL. I'm probably going to get smacked now for that comment.
Good, not great IMO. Fairly simplistic, fairly synthetic. Fairly priced and easy to find.
@@milosb9979 I can respect that.
Always great being in the same video as you two legends! Thanks for having me on!

😂😂😂
And I honestly wouldn't know what county that brand belongs to. I have barely talked about ANY of these clone brands.
