Hey Jimmy, thank you for watching! Wow, so many amazing fragrances, you certainly smell incredible! 😍Thank you so much for sharing some of your favorites. Much love to you in Costa Rica ❤
Idk if scent split samples smell accurate but my Gisada Ambassador smells like straight wood. It doesnt smell "tropical" like it was described. Is that normal to someone who has an actual bottle?
Absolutely SPOT ON selection. As usual ;) Great descriptions as well. I own all. Halfeti is my biggest compliment getter. It's my secret gem, so I'm sad you spoiled it. Guys, be careful with Kajal - it's super strong and a bit too much for me - try it before you buy. Others are spot on!
Great selections. You definitely know what you are talking about.👍🏽🤗 My must have Oud To Greatness, Hypnotizing Fire, Naxos, Liquid Gold, and African Leather.
I have Renaissance, got a sample of Alexandria II today but didn't smell it yet. Halfeti Leather should arrive soon. Ani is on my list, have 1ml sample left, but not the first one on the list. I have ordered some City Rhythm fragrances for trial with coconut and lemon scent that reviewers say are very good let's see. Paragon was kind of special but too much in one direction. Will try Grand Soir and Oajan the ingredients seem great. You have good taste. Have a good life!
Hey Jurij, thank you so much for watching! Renaissance is my favorite citrusy scent atm, I am in love. I hope you will enjoy Alexandria II, a huge love of mine too. City Rhythm fragrances sound so amazing, I have not had the chance to try them out yet. Let me know your favorites. I hope you get to try Grand Soir and Oajan soon. Thank you for the sweet and kind words, all my best wishes to you!🥰🥰 P.S. You certainly have an amazing taste as well!😍
Hi again and thanks. I got the City Rhythm fragrances today. I ordered 10 ml of Miami, Tropical Confessions, Tempo, Manhattan and St. John and I like them all, I’m really surprised. They make me kinda feel good, really strange, but I do think that I’ll have to let 2 or 3 of them mancerate a little as the smell isn’t as strong as of the others. Now it’s only my opinion but wow really didn’t expect that I would like all of them. I also got samples from Athena Fragrances this week and my favorite so far is Shams Dubai but it needs more testing. I think they are doing a good job too and if you don’t know them they are definitely worth checking out. Anyways all the best!
Hey there@@JurijPopotnig Thank you so much for getting back to me and sharing your experience. Wow, it is always amazing when you love all the fragrances you get to test, so happy that you are enjoying everything you got to try. I will certainly make sure to get a chance to sample these soon. Athena Fragrances look very interesting too. Thank you once again for sharing. I hope you have a lovely weekend. 🥰
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks, Mel. I agree what you said about Initio Paragon. It's a Top-3 fragrance in my collection. As far as a unique signature-worthy fragrance I would recommend, it would be Nishane Safran Colognise. It's a warmer weather (spring/fall/summer nights) leather/saffron with a "new glossy magazine" accord on a clean musky base. It's inoffensive but very unique, so it must be sampled first. Gives off a "cool, mysterious dude dressed in black" vibe. Criminally under-rated, which makes it/you standout. Thanks again for the male-focused video. -- CJ --
Hey dear Chesterfield, thank you so much, I am happy to hear you enjoyed the video. I will certainly try Safran Colognise, love your description, sounds amazing! 🥰Thank you for stopping by!😍
Baby you haven’t smelled search by amouage then! This thing performs for 8 hours! Its like walking into a lemon garden that happens to be next to the beach 🏖️ such an elegant lemon scent
Hey Victor, thank you for the kind words. Renaissance, is an incredible citrus scent, perfection for Summer. And Halfeti is to die for. I hope you will love them as much as I do. 💌❤
Hey Sanne, I wore Grand Soir the other day, so beautiful. I love Oajan so much too, so cozy and delicious. 🥰 I hope you find a sample, it is very potent and powerful 😄😍
Are you into fragrance layering? If so then can you please make a video on "signature/everyday layering combinations"? I am actually looking for one as a guy. A video on that would certainly help, since fragrance layering is not talked about that much in the men's fragrance community.
Have them all except the Penhalagan and the Kajal. Don’t have Initio Paragon, wasn’t impressed by it. Love the list though, I’m going to look into the Penhalagon Halfeti, I think there is another fragrance that smells quite similar and is much cheaper if I’m not mistaken, can’t think of it right now.
Hey there, thank you so much for stopping by! Happy that you enjoyed the list. I love Paragon so much, but of course, we can't all like the same fragrances. I hope you get to sample Halfeti soon. have not smelled a fragrance similar to it yet, but if you remember the name, let me know. 🥰
I've been working through my Nishane discovery set and I really love Ani, but I'm hesitant to but it before I try Ani X which I don't have a sample of. Any tjoughts on Ami X?
It's a fresh take on original Ani. From the opening you get citruses and vanila, it feels like a lighter or fresher type of vanila (compared to OG Ani) because of citruses. Its still nice and sensual vanila like the OG. In my opinion, original Ani is more spicy and it feels like its a fuller version of Ani x. Ani x is missing something interesting in it that would keep me coming back to sniff it again. If i have to rate them - OG Ani 8.75, Ani X 6.75. Also of you care about performance OG Ani lasts more on my skin. I still suggest you to try if you can, you might like Ani x more. I love OG Ani more 😄.
@dzoniwot1096 Thanks! Og Ani sounds more like my cup of tea. I think I'll jist pull the trigger on it. I'll probably try X one day, but I'm already overwhelmed with too many samples. I need to stop testing so many and just settle into some that I love for awhile.
Hey my dear Joel, the X version, is a lot fruitier, lighter, creamier and less spicy, not that green as the original too. In the opening it is very juicy, I get a lot of fruitiness and citruses, it smells almost like a Pineapple juice to me, I love it. Then you get a creamy, sweet, Vanilla with Sandalwood just like the original. In my opinion the X version is easier to wear day to day, and it is amazing in the Summer too. ❤️ Thank you for stopping by, as always! 🫶
@scentcurious damn, that sounds great. Now I need to try it before I get the og Ani. I'll probably end up with both 😂. Thanks Mel. Your takes are always helpful.
This is a really good list, however I have to disagree about Layton being a good signature scent. Where I live, a lot of people would find it to be much too sweet and too loud for certain situations.
Hey Jonny, thank you for stopping by. 🥰 Luckily I am not overwhelmed by the sweetness of Layton, as I also get some freshness in there. but I can understand it could be too sweet for some, it all comes down to your personal liking and what you enjoy wearing😍
I have 3 of your Top 10, but I have so many parfumes that I usually have at least 2 fragrances. The parfume I have that is Beastly and my goto fragrances is Mancera Sicily, for my summer scent. Oud For Greatness for the Fall.
I LOVE Oud Satin Mood on men, so mysterious, elegant, and seductive, I decided to add Grand Soir for this list instead, but Oud Satin Mood is one of my favorites too! Thank you so much for stopping by.🥰
@@AmitDixit13 Of course, this is the beauty of fragrances, we all perceive them differently and we all have different tastes, perfume is extremely personal and that is what makes it special. 🥰

Have Layton, it's great! I have a Penhaligons The Blazing Mr Sam...love it!

Hey, Danny. Thank you so much for watching, happy you enjoyed the list🥰
Grand Soir, Oud Satin Mood and Initio Addictive vibration are my favourite scents of all time ❤ I have a hard time using any of my other fragrances.

#sotd: Grand Soir by MFK 😍 Oajan is probably my most loved one here!
P.s. I'm hunting down a sample of Kajal IV asap 😃
Hey Sanne, I wore Grand Soir the other day, so beautiful. I love Oajan so much too, so cozy and delicious. 🥰 I hope you find a sample, it is very potent and powerful 😄😍
@@scentcurious would you say it's more masculine or a true unisex scent? Thank you 🥰
I trust your opinions. Do more on mens parfumes.

There’s something in Halfetti in the dry down that makes me feel nauseous and sickly. Other than that your list is great!

"Oud Malaki" from Copard I think is the fragrance that people say smells like Halfeti. Didn't try it though yet.
Hi. I have a Xerjoff Mefisto, does it make sense to change it to a Renaissance or a Torino21? Or will these flavours not give me something new?

Grand soir is very feminine
It’s unisex, goes well for both. On men it’s more smoky, on women it goes a bit smoother imo. But definitely won’t say it’s that feminine😊
