don't know if it was just his t-shirt but find it SO refreshing the idea of you including a blue-collar worker in there rather than just young professional twenty-somethings... people only ever focus diversity on skin colour but there's so much more to it than that!
you should include the part where you reveal the price difference of all of the perfumes and their clones and ask them if they will spend money on the original or just buy the clone
@@BaldassarreFragrance maybe some kind of bloopers video (?). I assume that from one side it's too early for a separate channel for that. On the other hand why not? Maybe that would be the right place for that kind of content for people even more interested in seeing that kind of stuff
Hands down always the best blind tests! You do everything you can to avoid testers bias and fallacies. Love the mix of tester personalities. But definitely did miss having tressa on the panel haha…she’s the best! Keep up all the great work on this and your wristwatch channels! Been some of my favorite channels over the past few years!
What I find interesting is CDNIM’s performance on paper vs skin. On paper it’s very faint and doesn’t develop, but on skin there’s massive imprinting and it pushes off the skin beautifully.
@@LoLeQ88 There’s no denying that CDNIM smells like a chemical mess up close haha. However, this thing is a compliment beast and is very well received by others around me. Because of that, it’s a really good “going out/clubbing fragrance” for me. The longevity and sillage on it is unreal even with 2-3 sprays.
@@PoncesPoint Maybe it's the batch. I bought mine around 6 years ago, and it's the strongest fragrance i've ever owned. Over 24 hours longevity too. So much so I can't wear it.
This is so tricky, if you have the direct comparison on a paper strip you can definitely smell a difference, on skin as well. But if you're smelling it in the air when someone passes you by, no chance you could tell if the parfum is fake or not even though you are very familiar with the original scent. Interesting video
I loved the end! I think revealing the price of each of the perfumes and asking them if the original is worth the cost would be a nice addition! Sure, Creed Aventus smells nice! But does it smell $200 nice?
@@mousemousejim6352 She appears in most of the other reaction videos on this channel and I like her personality. She seems cool, straightforward, and has definite opinions on what she does and doesn't like in fragrance. I like her fashion style, too, which has nothing to do with the channel, but is so cute/quirky I can't help but notice lol.
@@mousemousejim6352 Thank you! I like your style on these videos! I wondered if you all actually know each other or meet each other prior to these videos being made but I guess not.
I'm sure I could find fragrance basics elsewhere, but would love to see you two do a video on it. Dos and Donts, where to buy, what to go for different occasions. Love the content, keep it up!
I love Aventus and wear it everyday as my signature smell but there is no way i would recommend anybody to spend 300$ bucks on it - its just not 10x better than the Armaf.
Same here! I have a bottle of Creed Aventus that I've had for years. I love it, but only marginally more than Armaf CDNI. Aventus is definitely not worth the difference in price.
@@eveyoung3656 There are some exceptional ones that are worth it, also niche doesn't mean high-end so not per se expensive. A Montale/Mancera frag can be discounted to even 60 euro's for a 100/120ml. But even if we looked at the expensive ones, I'd say some are worth it even for the average joe. Like PdM Laytion or Amouage Epic
6:28 did she really say CDNIM is more subtle than Aventus??? Aventus definitely smells a lot more realistic and nice but in what world does CDNIM smells subtle 🤯 If thats because of the new reformulation, CDNIM is dead now, people were only willing to over look how synthetic it smell because of its monstrous performance and the price tag. Also, I find it a bit strange strange how the guy in the blue dress shirt know the real deal is way more expensive than the clone yet he only guesses that br540 cost $60, its almost seems like he tries to show us that he is not that into fragrances lol. Like at least you could have guess 100, who would spend 20 less just to get a clone instead of buying the original that actually smell better.
lol yeah now way in hell CDNIM smells more subtle up close, or maybe because of the paper? on shirt and skin CDNIM definitely got VERY INTENSE smell dont khow which batch used in this video, got the 2022 batch here EDT one still got beastly silage and longevity
Yeah man, I was baffled too and thinking how in the hell they could say that CDNIM was way weaker than Aventus. If you look in fragrantica people using Aventus find the modern batches to have big problems in terms of longevity, projection, and sillage, with CDNIM vastly outperforming it.
I have Armaf Club de Nuit which is a clone of Creed Aventus. It costed me around $50, while Creed Aventus costs more than $300 for a very small bottle. Would definitely recommend getting the clone.
I have both Aventus and club de nuit limited edition I got to say it most bad. Well it doesn’t smell terrible but it’s most like a very cheap version of aventus I would suggest people save their money and get aventus at a discounter.
Very wired, I'm using Club De Nuit EDP now, when I spray my wife complains that the opening is way to strong,she can't stand it but the dry down is amazing. I spray at 6 am, going to work, coming back home at almost 8 pm and my wife feels the scent on me after all those hours and from few feet away, Creed Aventus vanishes after around 2-4 hours. For some odd reason in this video Creed was the stronger one, maybe it's only the opening, but if CDNI is already unbearable at the opening,I wonder how strong was the Aventus on that paper.
I actually spray Club De Nuit on my clothes and leave them in the sun for a few hours. I can’t stand the opening, but the warm musky amber base is like a pheromone scent to my sniffer. Stays on clothes for days
I've heard many things about Aventus vs CDNIM, like how the Aventus just smells slightly smoother and a little more natural than the CDNIM, but never have I heard that CDNIM is so weak that you can't even pick up the smell on a test strip, even if you tried so hard?. Lol I'm although pro Aventus... But this honestly sounds like foul play.
I remember commenting on her nose back when they 1st started their fragrance channel together and she was amazing at identifying notes in fragrances even back then.
Loooove this and am surprised if it isn't your most viewed segment but I have two suggestions: tell the price difference at the end and ask if it's worth it. And do a Zara hall because they have the best priced clones out there, my far.
I wear Très Nuit, love that it smells so similar to GIT at 1/10 the price. Also Gab is always my favourite in these videos, love that she could barely tell the difference
Maybe it’s because all of my friends and co-workers are nobodies but none of them can tell the difference between Creed Aventus and CDNIM/edp. I had both and used to alternate between the two. Eventually I ran out of Aventus, didn’t replace it, and chose to stick with CDNIM/edp.
Watched a couple of these videos in a row and that young girl Jae consistently nails her assessments. 5/5 on this and she picked up the Jasmine and the fact that eau sauvage was older in the last video I saw. That Jim guy on the other hand.....
Funny thing is aventus creed doesn't last as long as club de Nuit intense and that's why people prefer it more, I would've went with the limited edition to test as it's the best out of the 3 versions of CDNI
I bought my first cologne today. The lady sprayed like 10 different ones on strips. Slowly I narrowed it down to the last two. I had no idea what was what, in general I have no knowledge about colognes, so I just went by what smelled good. Last two were Bleu de Chanel and Dior Sauvage. I ended up picking the Sauvage. Come to find it's literally the most basic cologne every man uses. I pride myself on having a good nose and being good with smells and tastes so I don't know how to feel about me going straight for the most basic cologne there is. Is it really just that good of a smell or did I maybe recognize it unconsciously and that's why I gravitated towards it?
You are good. I have close to 100 frags in my collection and Sauvage still ranks along my favorites. Both the EDP and Elixir. You'll develop your nose as time goes by. Some things you won't like or will find unremarkable at first only to try them again later to find that now you love them. It happened to my with Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver and Amouage's Reflection Man. Buy samples & decants and enjoy the journey.
Very interesting comments, they were skillful to find the original fragrances. I love Juan, he is as beautiful as the sum of theses fragrances and so confident :))
Everyone but two people were pretty confident (and also correct) when telling the clone from the original one. Some people just don't have a well developed sense of smell.
@@Swiatlocien A 3.3 bottle of Aventus will cost you $445.00 online, whereas a SIX POINT EIGHT bottle of Club de Nuit costs around $50.00. AGAIN, considering the HUGE difference in price, EVERYONE should know the difference between these two fragrances.
they would smell the dupe in public and they would think is the original... this test just proves confidence and bluffing interaction... also smelling but only compared with 2 scents. Could be interesting to test smells and if people know which fragance could be or which ingredients compound the frangance. Btw, the test was really interesting and funny
Funny that aventus indeed smells better at the first whiff but CDNI lasts a lot longer… Baccarat rouge 540 is more subtle and cloud is like pumped up synthetics, and Tuscan leather is the one I really love but the performance is unfortunately a joke at the pricepoint, have to try LY yet.
There must have been a discrepancy in spraying CDNIM vs. Aventus because there is no way in hell you wouldnt be able to smell the cdnim on the paper, its a bomb of a scent, and several of the people here said they could barely smell it
Actually at least in France, there is no copyright law on fragrances/perfume, so actually clone fragrances are exactly the same as the original, 100% the same. The only difference being the vial, clone fragrances are also 10x cheaper.... so if you don't care about not having YSL written on a wrapper no one will ever see, you just go for clone fragrances.
That Armaf is not a bad buy. I've been buying Aventus for years and paying $1200 for the Flacon and $495 for the 100ml, and buying that Armaf for $30 is a game changer.
Wow its back! Can u please do Moschino Toy Boy, Mancera Instant Crush, Versace Blue Jeans, Lanvin Eclat de Arpege, Lacoste White, Dior Homme Intense and Rochas Moustache EDP. Thanks!
Comparison is the thief of joy, and this is why I love Jim. He picked a scent he liked, thought it was the real deal, and pretty much got all of them wrong. Scent is king - regardless of price. Let's face it, the average person isn't going to know which fragrance you have on you, and the average fraghead won't be able to tell if it was a clone unless you presented them with a comparison.
Just came across this channel and realized you haven't uploaded in the last two years. If you happen to think about posting videos again, India has had a huge inflow of cheaper copies of costly prefumes recently, and your videos could really help indian folks. Please consider making videos on those. India has a huge population, you would definitely find a huge viewership from here.
you cant go wrong with Rouge 540 is worth it and yeah ariana Cloud if you dont have the budget but if you can definitely get Rouge , another compliment getter is Acqua Di Gio and well if your really in a tight boudget red 360 is half the price and still good
Normally I'd just fast forward through videos, but for some reason I just can't so that with your videos. Probably the choice of music but it gives me classy vibes.
I'm wearing Creed right now I bought a small decant I have a full bottle of the armaf I'm going to compare two but I really believe Creed smells a lot better
Can we give it up for Jim? The man was constantly wrong but so confident in doing so.
Well, he chosed what he liked
@@bojantenjaThat wasn't his job 😅
xD so I'm not the only one who was thinking it

Amen!
His reaction to baccarat rouge at the end was literally my first impression.
Yeah I agree he just seems like a regular dude. Nice to have some diversity in that way too.
There is more diversity among people than there is between races.
Gab has a fantastic sense of smell, not only did she get all 5 right but she also recognized one of them. I would trust her taste in perfumes 100%.
In all fairness, I think Jae is just as much a connoisseur as Gab. I could trust her judgment with my life

I think you're right
Yea ikr I’ve never seen aventus win on a side to side with performance against CDIM 😂 specially the edt . It’s definitely a skin fragrance
especially the limited edition version
CNDIM is pure garbage, u should destroy it.

surprised they described Club De Nuit as being weak. My bottle will over-power the room with half a spray
Is because they are smelling it out of paper which is not the same as skin
I wonder if it's the EDT and not EDP.

Give me Club de Nuit Intense and the extra 300 dollars and I will find several other colognes to layer and make it smell better than Aventus

Eeeeeey Jim is back! Great content like always. Happy to see Aventus get the credit.
The credit for being a long lasting fragrance which it is known not to be, goes to show how inaccurate these tests are in paper

I would love to see this with people that aren’t frag heads but know more about fragrances or have heard of the fragrances in question
I really enjoyed this. I appreciate the unique content!
the content of this channel is top notch, also the females are absolutely stunning and well educated on fragrances
Armaf edp is stronger in the opening than creed, weird how it is other way around for them. Armaf also lasts longer
ARMAF club de nuit 30$ also better fragrance then aventus 300 $
We love Jim - he's usually wrong in every video.... but we love him
Such a good video! Stella is gorgeous 💐 and 👏👏👏 to all of u guys. Looking forward for more to come alright. Cheers!

Also Gab is always my favourite in these videos, love that she could barely tell the difference

Would 've loved to hear what people thought about Silver Mount Water vs Armaf clone version
you cant go wrong with Rouge 540 is worth it and yeah ariana Cloud if you dont have the budget but if you can definitely get Rouge , another compliment getter is Acqua Di Gio and well if your really in a tight boudget red 360 is half the price and still good
Normally I'd just fast forward through videos, but for some reason I just can't so that with your videos. Probably the choice of music but it gives me classy vibes.
Just found this channel. I love watching these ❤️
But which version of CDNIM was used in this test? EDT? EDP? Limited Edition Parfum?
Love this video and format, more please
Thanks a lot for bringing new people
Awesome video, as usual. So much fun! Love the fresh talent. 5/5
I'm wearing Creed right now I bought a small decant I have a full bottle of the armaf I'm going to compare two but I really believe Creed smells a lot better
Agreed. Creed just smells luxurious and expensive all the way through, whereas the clones smell nice but just don't have that expensive smell to them.
Very good concept! Keep it up ted!
