I have encre noir sport and Lalique. I wear them just casually and wore the sport version to work one day and 4 guys complimented me on it in one evening. I’ve never had so many compliments in one day before
I had the Lalique year's ago its certainly a marmite fragrance with those very dark undertones it nearly put me off wearing it but once the dry down is gone it comes into its own. I'll definitely have a look at the Sport, probably to use as an everyday scent.
Versace Dylan Blue is great i have it and it smells amazing, i personally like Versace Signature its cheap as well and i think its better. Its a projection/compliment beast.
Glad you said that about Eros, because I've been wanting to get it for a while but reviews seem to be really bad lately. But I also have noticed that it's impossible to find a fragrance that isn't brand new that somebody is a complaining about reformulation.
Welcome to frag community. So much over exaggeration it's embarrasing. I'm wearing Eros right now new batch and I just had a compliment, its 14:58PM I applied this at 07:00 ... its fine just spray it a few times. For the price spray it how much you want it to last
My professional background is culinary. I've noticed a lot of guys starting out like to act like they hate everything, because they're trying to present the idea that they have some kind of superior discerning pallette. I'm a relatively new fraghead. I only recently got bit by the bug, but I immediately noticed a similarity between fragheads and amateur chefs 🤣
Eros still lasts as long persay- just far less depth. They took out the sugar top and deep base around 2016. It's far more fresh and balanced. No longer a club scent. More for chilly winter days. I have a 2014 & 2019 and I would use each formula for 2 completely different situations.
Guilty Absolute = Leather soaked in motor oil 🛢. Strangely, I freaking love the scent. The presentation is awesome it looks like a bottle of Bullet Bourbon
interesting comment. i've been trying to wear it a dozen times at least in the past few months, but i barely smell anything, nor do i get comments from people, which i often do for other fragrances like sauvage, bvlgari MIB orient, bvlgari aqva atlantique...
YSL Kouros is one of most Iconic fragrance. In its own era Kouros was most elegant scent, however it's simple these days. I believe YSL proud of it, YSL became the most respectful fragrance brand for me by kouris
Hey Man, got a video idea for ya... too 10 most set apart/obscure/unique/kitschy fragrance bottles. Thinking anything along the lines of CH Bad boy, moschino toy boy, azzaro wanted, diesel only the brave, etc. Been waiting for someone to do a video like that because I have a thing for kitschy bottles/presentations, and you got the gnarliest of collections I’ve seen of any RUclipsr! Also, thanks for all you do man. Love the detail you go into about the fragrances in your videos. Not to mention the fact that you consistently bring impartial posture when creating lists meant to be understood objectively! You and Cubaknow are the reason I started getting into fragrance and am Very thankful for all that you’ve provided via this channel! Keep it up homie!
Bought Encre Noir recently, it opens up woody and paint like reminds me ...of Home Depot (not a fan), then after a few hours the dry down is much more pleasant with that dark elegance. Ill give it more wearings but I ll see about swapping it for Encre Sport or Extreme
Okay, I just bought Bentley Intense...after buying Drakkar Noir (having not worn it in twenty years) based on your recommendations. Thank you. What did you study in college? You speak well.
I bought eros about 2 months ago, and that thing is a Projection Monster! It's still a great fragrance to wear. I didn't really live the scent so I sold it on Mercari. Try Mercari for buying new and used fragrances.
I was scrolling down to see other's recommendations as this fragrance was 1 in my head that I'm still going to say. Thanks for saying it too. Lacoste L'homme Intense is fantastic
Joop Homme is my go to. It works great on my skin. To me, woody vanilla with oriental, cinnamon scent. Very unique, lasts all day for once, and it's affordable in the UK.
@@ibrahimyussif9862 Go for it. It's about opinion, at the end of the day. Many hate YSL Jazz, I love it. I can't stand Paco millions, it's too sweet. Many enjoy it. Joop is amazing, as it's not a fragrance that is boring. It develops after a few hours, into a oriental and woody smell, which is classic. Which is why it is a classic. Enjoy it, try and find the largest bottle EDT for £35-37. More value for money, as it lasts at least 6 months of regular use.
Great video, Ash. But you should've included Bentley for Men Intense. (Two by Fours terracing your collection in background would be awesome too... But just a suggestion!)
Ash, video idea: Bring Mary back and have her blind smell 10 originals vs clones of different fragrances and see which she likes most. Then Aventus vs 10 Aventus clones lol
Eros today is not as strong as it used to be. I had a 50ml of the older one, my daughter broke that bottle 3 years ago. Mop smelled like Eros for days. Repurchased it aaaaaaaand, she broke that one the following year. The year after that I repurchased it (2018)... I can definitely vouch that its performance is nothing like the past two bottles I had before
Jaïpur Homme by Boucheron the EDP. Really cheap, (i think it still is) I love the scent, and it lasts on me, until i try to wash it off. Regards from Denmark.
I have to disagree with you on the Reformulation on Versace Eros. I tested my stepdads old bottle and my new bottle and there was a noticeable difference in performance and the smell itself.
Well, I just did something I've never done before, a did a blind buy. You talked me into trying Bentley Intense without trying it. I hope I like it. Also, I was big into Kourus back in the 80's and I didn't like Joop!. So I trust your recommendation. We'll see once I get Bentley Intense from FragNet. Thanks
I love them all but Joop is my long favorite, and to me is better than Santal and individual...joop is like a Boxer going in the 12th Round of a fight and knocking you OUT COLD with a left Hook to the liver...Awesome frag❤❤❤❤
I just got a bottle of ck one shock at a tj max and its mind altering, like genuinely I think im high off this stuff rn lol. cheap and impressive like I like em.
Hi Ash, how long would you say Frags last in general? What I mean is, if they are boxed and used on rotation, ive got about 30 frags, some i hardly wear as they are my 'favs' and i save them, sad i know...lol...I'm addicted to blind buys, I love the buzz of it!...I never leave my collection un boxed, can i keep buying, will they be ok and last? Many Thanks
I paid about a 100 bucks for my Gucci guilty intense from Macys... Joop use to be the sent bomb 💣 back in high school and it actually use to be decently expencive .
Thanks Ash, I think the majority of people want to know what frags are long lasting and priced well. The one on your list that cought my eye was Bulgari Men in Black. I'll check them out. I'll also check out Bentley Intense eventhough that was not on your list, 😉, lol.
People talk about cheap 50ml bottles but when you break down the price they are not really cheap per oz/ml. It's a great option if you want multiple bottles in your collection. I spend the extra money and always buy minimum 100ml.
Kouros blind buy in 2019, smells like old man stench , and not because its outdated its because that what it smells like, in the dry down even worse, its very strong and you will wish it wasnt.
Bentley for Men Intense - you should have listed it Ash, it's such a great frag for the price. Have you heard of it?
I know right?!
LOOOOOOOOOOOOL Antonio taking the pi**
man... I agree... wished he would have mentioned Bentley Intense...
Overrated!
lol
I'm glad that you finaly haven't mentioned a Bentley for man intense
Finally! And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats.
@@pallemaniac "...and lo!"
This fragrance is the ugliest I’ve ever smelled

Lattafa raghba wood intense, Rasasi hawas, Rasasi la yuqawam, Swiss Arabian shaghaf oud abyad, afnan 9pm, v&r spicebomb extreme, Franck olivier oud touch
Versace Dylan Blue is great i have it and it smells amazing, i personally like Versace Signature its cheap as well and i think its better. Its a projection/compliment beast.
Franck Oliver Oud Touch. Silly cheap and lasts forever. The best bang for your buck Oud Rose.
Latest batches are weak af... but yes, it was very nice cheapie.

I think two from Rasasi i.e. Darej and Shuhrah are worth buying. Cheapies with beast performance

*per se
Just buyed bulgary a week ago, so great fragance, very nice and at last 7 hours performance.
Bro, great list! 👌 For my taste, best cologne for ratio money/quality is Boucheron Jaipur EDP.
Cheers! 😊
I repurchase Versace Dylan Blue,One Million and Montblanc Individuelle. Thanks for the coupon 😀
Like others I’m also really glad you didn’t mention Bentley for men intense
Guilty Absolute = Leather soaked in motor oil 🛢.
Strangely, I freaking love the scent. The presentation is awesome it looks like a bottle of Bullet Bourbon
Ash,there are 10 cheap and long lasting fragrances in your Bently intense video :P
Versace Eros and Eros Flame are my two faves for lasting real long. Another long lasting one is Prada luna rossa black edp.
yo how long do they last?
@@Leg_kick_ouch at least 10 hours maybe longer …once I smelled it on a shirt I wore a week ago , no lies !
Joop homme is one of my first love fragrances. You should try it for sure
Great list. I gotta get this Bently intense, never heard of it. 😀
24 gold by scentstory, lasts all day & everyone everywhere can smell you & it smells great & you can grab a 50ml bottle for about £30
*MY TOP (4) BUDGET BEASTMODES*
- Rasasi Hawas
- Prada Luna Rossa Sport
- Armaf CDNIM
- Ragbda Wood Intense
*HONORABLE MENTION*
- Bentley Man Intense 😂
I am surprised he did not feature Bentley for Men Intense in this video. 😂😂
Azzaro Wanted By Night is VERY overpowering. One spray to the neck and you’re set.
interesting comment. i've been trying to wear it a dozen times at least in the past few months, but i barely smell anything, nor do i get comments from people, which i often do for other fragrances like sauvage, bvlgari MIB orient, bvlgari aqva atlantique...
One spray are you serious?
@@andre-mr7xz yup, 3 sprays is way too much
I spray like 6-7 times just for it to be some what aknowledged😂. And it wears off after 4 hours at max

Great list Ash! Some fragrances I would add to this list are Bogart PH, Lalique PH, and Jaipur EDP. Be well Ash! 👍
Hey ash.. Dunhill icon the original is above average for sure. Roberto caballi uomo silver essence - azzaro wild mint - carven l'eau intense.
Hey Ashton, you missed Bentley for men!
Just sayin!
Got stronger with you for 39 bucks. Amazing buy 🔥
Can you please do this same list for unisex, for female, and for gourmand fragrances?
Club de nuit intense is very long lasting for me 15hrs+. F black by ferregamo, Bvlgari Aqva, 212 men nyc.
Bought Encre Noir recently, it opens up woody and paint like reminds me ...of Home Depot (not a fan), then after a few hours the dry down is much more pleasant with that dark elegance. Ill give it more wearings but I ll see about swapping it for Encre Sport or Extreme
Thank for you cooment. I think i will also go for Encre Sport.
Ash, can you do a video on retailer fragrances - zara, banana , a&f, aeo, tommy b, h&m, etc. Would love to hear your take.
"Chokes me out and not in a pleasant way" - 9:30 🤔🤔🤣
Playful choking is lit 🔥
@@Albus_Rex ok bro
Is there a pleasant way of being choked out???
JohnDaWhale3 yes
That's what she said!
After Eros reformulations i prefer Flame 🔥
In my nose , eros flame feel like annosmic
Bad perform
Smelled the same to me after 2 hours it’s those notes I combine the two
Thanks! Just used the promo code to get my first Dior Savauge, Versace Dylan Blue and Bleu de Chanel.

What i like about your channel is the fragrances you talk about is mostly is attainable in my country.
Nice shirt Ash...😁...great video as always thanks.
Kouros, what a classic! I don't find it stanky! I love it! haha. To me it smells clean.
Make a video of the best cologne for younger guys (18-24)! with inclusion of complement pullers and everyday use cologne.
Prada L’Homme Intense should have made this video in my opinion.
I was scrolling down to see other's recommendations as this fragrance was 1 in my head that I'm still going to say. Thanks for saying it too. Lacoste L'homme Intense is fantastic
It’s not as cheap as others mentioned in this video
Joop Homme is my go to. It works great on my skin. To me, woody vanilla with oriental, cinnamon scent. Very unique, lasts all day for once, and it's affordable in the UK.
I plan on purchasing it even though a lot of people say it’s horrible

Kouros classic one. Wore it 2 to 3 years straight, that was my clubbing fragrance.
Great video, Ash. But you should've included Bentley for Men Intense.
(Two by Fours terracing your collection in background would be awesome too... But just a suggestion!)
Great video. No lapidus by Ted lapidus? I love it don't care what anyone says. How does it compare to Kouros?
My cheap cologne is Lacoste blanc. Its mostly my everyday, smelling sweet all the time.
Oh yeah 🔥🔥🔥that smells awesome
Joop is 1 of favs lol i been using for about 10yrs!! You just have to know how to pull it off lol
Ash, video idea: Bring Mary back and have her blind smell 10 originals vs clones of different fragrances and see which she likes most. Then Aventus vs 10 Aventus clones lol

Why is pure xs in the thumbnail but not the video smh
i was thinking the same thing. it's kinda clickbaity tbh.
It’s also one of the links in the description 🤦🏽♂️
Nautica voyage lasted on me for more than 12h and heavily projecting for 3-4 hours
Versace eros last forever on my skin and I personally do not associate the scent with clubbing or attention seeking. I just enjoy the scent.
Batch?
Dunhill desire = Santal 33 for literally 1/10th the price
How close? %
Jaïpur Homme by Boucheron the EDP. Really cheap, (i think it still is) I love the scent, and it lasts on me, until i try to wash it off. Regards from Denmark.
I just ordered Bvlgari Avqua should I also get Versace Dylan blue?
Great list and entertaining content! Glad to have subscribed!
I have to disagree with you on the Reformulation on Versace Eros. I tested my stepdads old bottle and my new bottle and there was a noticeable difference in performance and the smell itself.
Definitely made things more challenging for yourself by removing Bentley For Men Intense from the list lol. Respect.
Your comedic sarcasm is undervalued. Cheap laughs, niche quality! 100% 😆
Bentley intense dried down is red signal if your under 35... you will get rubber elastic vibe especially during daytime.
Is Eros reformulated? And it so where can I find an earlier batch
Bogart pour homme is beastmode for around 20$ and i heard that many Bogart fragrances is 👌
You are correct it is BEAST
Most Bogart frags are beast mode.
Its definitely not for everyone...
defiantly a beast but i cant stand it
Have you heard about Bentley for men intense?
I love seeing Alexandre J at the back, I appreciate it :D Love the collection!
If your looking for a great and cheaper cologne from this video, I highly recommend Dylan blue by Versace. It excellent
Versace is a great house for the money...
Speaking of cheap...how about them Pirates? Are you getting yourself ready for another season of pain and suffering? When will it end?
@@harryiglesias right lol. Pens are doing terrible too
Dylan Blue is my favourite Versace fragrance
Going fragrance hunting at a rack store today while wearing Dylan Blue 😁.
Hope you find some steals! I’m actually wearing Dylan blue today, too! I’m just chilling at home, though. Lol
I actually saw a bond no 9 at the rack store recently. That's exceptionally rare to see niche frags there. GL

I now use mine in the cat litter tray hahahaha. Used to think it was the best but not after buying some better ones
Any experience dealing with Foreverlux?

Burberry Touch. All day. Every day
okay first on the list Bentley for men. If you like it you might want to consider the intense flanker on that.

People talk about cheap 50ml bottles but when you break down the price they are not really cheap per oz/ml. It's a great option if you want multiple bottles in your collection. I spend the extra money and always buy minimum 100ml.
I get more complements when wearing Kouros than with just about anything else.
Whew,I never ever liked that one...
15:37 How about L'extreame? the last one?
I feel like if Terre d'Hermes has an absolute flanker. You would get Gucci Guilty Absolute. Vetiver bomb.
Kouros blind buy in 2019, smells like old man stench , and not because its outdated its because that what it smells like, in the dry down even worse, its very strong and you will wish it wasnt.
Your totally right about joop... It's foul and smells like cough sypup to me.... Hate it..
What’s your favorite fragrance right now?
My newest purchase is LR Carbon and I like it a lot. Favorite, I would have to say is Coach for men!
Hi Ash could you tell me when your fragrance pre-launch offer ends please? I absolutely love the sound of Dream woods👍
