      That's a great combination of the most recent buzzwords from flankers' names! Well done 👍 Personally, I would give it some seasonal touch, by adding "Platine Reserve Privé (2024)" at the end, to be revised next year 😄Cheers

      A infinite amount of monkeys and an infinite amount of typewriters they will eventually write out the entire works of Shakespeare. From what I've heard, Ash's fragrances are pants.

    So when I was just getting into the hobby (after Mugler eliminated its plethora of A*Men flankers), I had read that A*Men Pure Malt was a good fragrance to try. Not knowing what flankers were, I went to the local fragrance shop and grabbed the original A*Men.
    Information like this is helpful to someone, regardless of where the rest of us are on this journey

    I started purchasing/collecting fragrances when you could choose from an EDT and and EDP and with certain lines there might appear a Parfum. It seems that by the late 90s flankers began to appear. Some were extraits or extremes. These were scents that you could recognize the origin scent in still. Then what we mostly know as flankers began to appear - same origin name but the scents began to really move away from the origin scent. These days there is a really mixed up association of flankers to the origin scent some line will move away from the origin scent for a few years and then a flanker will seeming out of the blue return to the original line dna - D&G Light Blue comes to mind. I say all of this not in judgment of the state of fragrance, more to reflect on the complexity I’ve experienced with scent.

    10:04 I get it, Ash. ralph lauren and Dunhill are the firm and Aqua Di Gio and Luna Rosa, A*Men are the product. Here's how to identify a collection from a flanker. When can we expect flankers on Terra Nova MML? ☝️🤓🔥

    I wonder how many flankers were made on the pursuit of the original scent. They just stash away the recipe for a later date.

  • @carltonhobbs

    You should have mentioned the original Polo, adding a little kink in the Ralph Lauren Supreme example.

    1 more comment:
    Some lines have their flankers released so far apart in time that people forget there was an original.
    For example, Drakkar Noir released in 1982 is a flanker of Drakkar released in 1972,. Most people know of Drakkar Noir, but they don't even know that Drakkar even exists. Then, there's Drakkar Intense released in 2022. I wonder if Guy Laroche is thinking of another flanker in 2032 🤔🤣

    BTW, Luna Rossa isn't as complicated as you think. They are all based around Luna Rossa, which means Red Moon. From what I've read, Luna Rossa is a speed boat that is sponsored by Prada. I believe the boat is primarily black with red. Also, to emphasize the name, the nozzle of the atomizer is always red...like a tiny red moon.
    Update: It's actually a sailboat that they race...not a speedboat.

    It's also a great way to sell the overstock on a glass bottle design and use up unused mods. Just another way of penny pinching in uncertain times.

  • @TonyThompson1981
    @TonyThompson1981 4 месяца назад

    The only flanker question I need answered is this.
    Okay, Versace came out with Versace Pour Homme, then the flankers Oud Noir and Dylan Blue came out in the same bottles. The women's version, Versace Pour Femme, has some flankers. Oud Oriental... same bottle. Dylan Blue... completely different bottle. Like totally different. Then Versense that is in the same bottle style as Pour Femme and Oud Oriental is apparently not a flanker.
    It just confuses and kind of bugs me.
