Great vid Omar but I personally have to disagree with Dylan Blue. I personally don't grasp why it gets so much hate. Yeah, it may be overhyped, Yeah there's other better blue fragrances out there but Dylan Blue is still a great dumb reach fragrance. It's designed to please the masses and it does a good job at that. At least I know I'll always have it in my collection. Nice review nonetheless.
Agree with you. Even though Dylan blue is not my favorite, the fragrance world has many options and they all work for someone. Fragrances are like pineapple on pizza...those who love it, defend it and enjoy it. those who don't don't, think that it shouldn't be a thing and hate on it. We should all be happy there's so many options for us to enjoy and if you personally don't like something... don't wear it. That simple.
@@sammykins6529 Disagree bro. It's not a mediocre house. Most of their fragrances check all the boxes and one like Dylan Blue does exactly that. Versatility, affordable price, longevity (decent to great) and compliment getter. Most niche fragrances can't even do all that. You can hate on it all you want but the fragrance simply works. Cheers
She really nailed most descriptions but I agree with every single one of your comments on her assessments. I like the fact that she called La Nuit laid back. I haven't heard anyone else say that and yes, definitely Bleu Electrique instead.
I own CH Men Privé and it's definitely not overhyped, if anything is underappreciated lol. Love your point of view on each fragrance. As always thanks for the masterclass.
She is really a beautiful lady! And I mean BEAUTIFUL! But I think she has certain preferences and prejudices that cloud her judgement. She hates all Versace, and hates Dior Sauvage Elixir. What?
I’d say Dylan Blue is the intellectuals alternative to Bleu de Chanel, very similar dna, less than half the price, double the projection an longevity... but some people are snobs and only focus on the brand and price. But you’re an idiot of you pick BDC over Dylan Blue. It’s the better deal all round.
I'm living in Brazil, here people generally don't have a taste for fragrances, that means I can rock Sauvage all day and still be unique lol I picked it up over DB and BDC because I really appreciate long lasting fragrances and also, most people that diss on Sauvage is due to it being so popular on more evolved countries but that's not an issue I have to face here in the tropical coutry lol
Wanted by Night is the layering king. I spray it as a base layer for a ton of fragrances, including it’s flanker brother The Most Wanted. It’s the rare cold weather(only) freshie w/ a synthetic cinnamon sweetness that pairs well with 90% of men’s fragrances.
yeah, and I do not understand that. It's a really versatile, cheap fragrance from a cool brand, that also lasts long being a fresh fragrance. I'm wearing it as a all day scent and I constantly receive compliments, so I don't get why people are hating on it
I think the lady in the video never got the Versace fragrances on discounted prices that's why she gave a bad opinion about Versace eros and Versace Dylan blue which one of the best fragrances available in the market at affordable prices. Try eros, you will get compliments for sure. Moreover Dylan blue is an underestimated fragrance. It's like a blend of dior Sauvage and blue de channel, what else you can expect from it??????
Everyone thinks a sport fragrance is for doing sports... it is for casual use, also called "sport" as in wearing a sport blazer, tons of great fragrances under that category, versatile AF! this was a great vid, luved it.
My favorite thing about Oud Wood is how calming it is 👌 you smell your wrists and it makes you forget about your stress. Even my coworker (keep in mind he is not a fan of fragrances) loves it because it isn’t strong.
Can someone explain to me where the dylan blue hate comes from? I actually like the opening quite alot and was / am thinking about buying it as a fresh / dumb reach fragrance.
The hate on it I dnt get he literally bigged it up in previous vids it’s soo nice nd I dnt get what she meant by mamas boy how can you put it in your top 40 n hate on it dnt make sense
Thing is I'm quite new to fragrances in general so maybe I'm missing something haha. I went to a fragrance store looking for a fresh blue ish fragrance and dylan blue left the best Impression on me opening wise. Maybe the Performance sucks or dry down ist bad but I honestly liked the scent more than sauvage and BDC
i currently have it and it's a great dumb reach/daily fragrance and i love it, but it can come off synthetic and generic when comparing it to other blue fragrances like BDC or Y EDP in my opinion
I think Chanel AHS eau extreme is super overhyped and Dylan Blue deffo doesn't deserve the hate from fragrance snobs (regardless of the price I prefere Dylan Blue before Sauvage (hate the ambroxan bomb) or Bleu de Chanel (love the opening, don't like the drydown). Sometines when I don't know what to choose for a casual occasion and consider between AHS Eau Extreme, Dylan Blue or Tres Nuit, most of the time I pick Dylan Blue or Tres Nuit. To me Chanel is pretty boring - not gonna repurchase it again. Plus actually I never got any reaction on Chanel (boring), unlike Tres Nuit which always gets me some positive feedback and costs a fraction (the best dumb reach fragrance ever - great smell, super versatile, great for every season, every occasion and super affordable).
I disagree with Dylan Blue. You see, in much warmer climate, especially tropical this would be a no-nonsense perfume. Can be worn on any occasion but mostly during evening.
If I am not mistaken, Josephine is from Genève, Switzerland. So, French is also her language. That being said, it doesn't do much harm trying to pronounce the names correctly, does it? after all, France and Italy are not for nothing in the history of scents. And thank you to both of you, Josephine and Omar, your videos are a great joy!
Yeah, jpg la male is a timeless classic, and newer generations don’t have a clue about it. When they smell it, they think is some new relise. Mostly cuz of so many different bottles (mostly Christmas relises). Sorry for my English 😅
I currently have YSL tuxedo and Moustache EDP. Both are fantastic but for the money, in my opinion only, I'd go with Alexandria fragrance's "Black Tie Affair". They did a great job and on my skin, it lasts a good 6-8 hours easy. But that's just my opinion.
@@alvarofragrances3202 I have all three. Black Tie Affair is very very close. I don't think tuxedo is worse by any stretch of the imagination. Tuxedo is a fantastic fragrance. It's just when you consider how hard it is to find and when you do, you pay a pretty penny. With alexandria, they nailed that fragrance and you can get it for around $45 USD. I would choose alexandria over moustache any day of the week though.
@@DaveBaldwin1 Thanks! I bought yesterday a 5 ml decant of Tuxedo to try it Yeah many people compare it with Moustache but if you tell me that Alexandria clone is better ; Good to know 👌🏻 Is Tuxedo your favorite or sexiest fragance ? If it is not, what would it be?
Man, I really think Wanted by Night is overrated. A lot of fragrance reviewers hype this fragrance so much. To me it's too harsh on my nose with that big cinnamon punch. Most Wanted is better in my opinion
Le Male: when she says daddy vibes; I wouldn't say she's saying it's only for daddy's - but more or less all the guys who first rocked it when it came out would be dads (or even granddads) by now 😉 Valentino Uomo Intense: sweet lipsticky gourmand, for a man? Who are we kidding? Yes. It is bold. To say otherwise means your not speaking from the perspective of an average Joe, but rather, "a guy who's in to fragrances". But besides those, I agree with all your points 👍
I personally think the YSL Tuxedo/Rochas Mustache EDP DNA is a bit overhyped. I haven't smelled Grand Soir yet, but I'm wondering how MDCI Chypre Palatin compares to it. It's my next big bottle purchase.
While you opened the subject of of education. Could you redo a lineup of Flagrance families? An expansion on the video you did a year ago. But go more in depth in one video showcasing gourmands or aquatics from all the major houses and highlight the differences between them? I am struggling to find such note to note comparison videos. Like for example I love 212 - where can I find those green park notes?
Oh yeah… I just wore Valentino Uomo Intense New Year’s Eve… holy smokes… definitely bold. The opening is similar to DHI but the dry down is completely original with its leathery goodness. Not quite gourmand, especially on the dry down since the waxy vanilla lacks any sweetness and doesn’t remind me of anything edible unless I’m gnawing on a dress shoe lol. It’s quite unique and super strong, it lasted 12 hours with a massive projection for about 6 and I can still smell it on my scarf. I think I went with about 8 sprays. Cheers, happy new year
Lol and I think L’homme Ideal EDP is very gentle and reserved. You might want to check out VUI if you haven’t yet, it’s been repackaged along with the original.
Nice vid Omar, I’m not sure about Tuxedo but Moustache is indeed amazing. I’m actually looking for a good coffee fragrance. Do you have some suggestions other than Red extreme? You stay safe too
I have Halloween Man X too and think it’s great. Another one I have is Replica Coffee Break by Maison Margiela. Best part of the Replica line is you can just go to Sephora and get a 10ml bottle for $30.
Something I've always found puzzling, is how people don't explore "classic" fragrances that have been around 30, 50, 80 years... And will only purchase what's available at the department store as what I call "flavor of the month" scents. There really are some incredibly unique "old" fragrances for both men and women, a lot of which could be considered 'unisex', that have been available literally for up to 100 years. Of course, Creed has been in business longer than that, but let's face it... Not everyone has the extra 200 to x amount of dollars to spend on smell-good every couple of months. Here's something funny and interesting... Personally, I look for and buy an ancient Avon cologne called Oland. I discovered it 20 years ago after buying a box lot at an estate sale. The funny part of it is that it smells like absolute wildcat piss when first put on... The interesting part is that after about 10 minutes, it's "settled down" to it's actual, intended fragrance and people will follow me around, telling me "how great I smell"... Of course, everyone's chemistry's is different and nearly every fragrance product will work differently from one person to the next. But it is nice to eventually "find" one that totally suits oneself... And it occurs to somebody that it just might be something that isn't available at a regular department store. Cheers... Happy New Year.
I love Joop Nightflight, Fahrenheit, Cool Water, Chopard Heaven, L'Eau Par Kenzo, Drakkar Dynamic, Joop Rococo. Those are or were fragrances that grabbed my nose's attention, that had something in them that made you want to explore them, wear them. Nowadays I pop into a fragrance store and 90% of fragrances are simply unremarkable. Put any of them next to Chopard Heaven or Insense Ultramarine and I'll always choose those old, but remarkable fragrances.
Bro, I own Oud Wood and it indeed really suits me (hint: look at my profile picture, I’m indeed a 007 Bond fan!) Could you recommend a cheaper substitute to Oud Wood? Because I’m not as rich as 007 Bond to wear it daily.. (I also own CDNI)
You said that the Stronger With You range was safe and mass appealing. Which one would you choose to wear? I've heard that Intensely and Absolutely are fantastic but haven't had a chance to smell them in person
For me, I prefer the Intensely to the original (due to better performance and being sweeter). Unfortunately, I’ve been unable to find Absolutely anywhere as I don’t think it’s available in the US.
I've smelled all of the SWY range (besides SWY only- the newest flanker). For me intensely had the strongest projection and longevity ever so slightly over absolutely. However absolutely was my favourite scent of the 3. It has an added booze note to it which I feel makes it more well rounded and even more mass appealing. The original SWY has strong projection and longetivity as is the DNA of the line, but is weaker than intensely and absolutely. However the original had the strongest vanilla note by my experience. It comes down to personal preference but I would recommend Absolutely since that is my favourite.
I'm thinking about blind buying either YSL Y EDP or Le Parfum. In your opinion which would you say pulls more compliments? I've heard some people say that the EDP has been reformulated and isn't nearly as strong. Also how do you feel about Prada Luna Rossa Carbon?
I bought Y EDP after testing it in a store once. It’s definitely a solid blind buy. I have recieved several compliments about it since I bought it. It stands out more than Luna Rosa Carbon
Completely agree with all your corrections. Jus de Rose or whatever her name is doesn't seem that into the hobby on a grander scale. Her commentary was off on many of the classics.
I like your videos = Pure Inspiration for me, Thank you. Very good list. Seven fragrances, I enjoy in January 2022, are: Tom Ford Tobacco Oud, Paco Rabanne Pure XS, Lalique Encre Noire L´ Extreme, Hugo Boss Bottled Intense EDP, Rochas Moustache EDP, Ted Lapidus Altamir and Hugo Boss The Scent Absolute EDP. Happy New Year !
Hi Omar can you please do a review of Xerjoff Golden Dallah? It's such an underrated perfume and perfectly unisex, both guys and dolls will enjoy this incredible gourmand oriental scent 👌👍
There's a strange trend, don't know if only among influencers, but the one where we are being told that woody, heavily spicy fragrances are sexy and most alluring. From my experience I can say that nothing works better in grabbing women's attention than blue fragrances. Well, perhaps if you mingle with the high crowd, where the most bizarre fragrance creations cause wows and oohs, then perhaps you should go for wood, tobacco and other odd (oud hahaha) stuff. Otherwise go for something like L' Eau Par Kenzo, Davidoff Cool Water or Dali Le Roy Soleil, and you will get tons of compliments. And if you want something more sophisticated, go for Fahrenheit or Bleu de Chanel (Allure is way overhyped, smells like 80s cologne).
Great reaction video and agree with theajority of your comments. I don't always agree with Josephine, but most of what she says in this one is correct too. Only one I disagree with you both on is Luna Rossa Black which I personally find very boring and a bit of a nothing fragrance. I actually like Luna Rossa Ocean much more, a bit more interesting.
Can you tell me which is the most sexiest men's cologne in the world I really would like to know what is that something that smells so good that everyone would notice thank you Romero
Armani Code is such an overhyped fragrance. There's nothing unique about it. If I were to choose fragrances that have recently caused me a "wow" reaction, I'd choose Terre d'Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver (or any Terre d'Hermes really) and Spicebomb original (didn't know this one).
We want to know how many bottles u have in ur collection. Because I refuse to listen to someone who is collecting is mainly de cats and speaks about Fragrancenet he’s never smelled
Rochas is not even close to tuxedo. Its tooo sharp and not refined enough for my liking of the DNA. We’re talking no compliments from multiple wears to 5+ compliments from one single wear
Hi Omar, that was a great reaction video! Glad we agreed on some of these. Bravo!
" A some what attractive woman as the thumbnail"
I like your videos and your taste, bisous
Did you notice Josephine gets so carried away by speaking French ! She starts pronouncing English Words also with a French Accent lol !!
It was great fun reacting to it Josephine, you are a true blessing to the community! 😊
@@SchoolOfScent Omar that was a good attempt to make her feel good. Immediately after my comment. Good Try !!
Anyone who wears Dylan blue knows how many compliments and women like it I’m not here for the slander! Eros is loved too!

Hey hey ... Dylan blue is my most fav blue fragrance. To me its unique and way better than BDC and Sauvage.
Not better than Y tho..
@@edwardjohn5 All depends, if you want to smell sweeter then get the YSL Y edp but if you want to smell like a real man then get the VDB.

Exactly it doesn’t smell like invictus its smell is like cinnamon base
Yes bro no comparison with invictus so different
Cool, enjoy. I prefer Pure XS in that segment personally.
It’s an amazing fragrance but the opening is a tiny bit invictus tbh
Facts
She is really a beautiful lady! And I mean BEAUTIFUL! But I think she has certain preferences and prejudices that cloud her judgement. She hates all Versace, and hates Dior Sauvage Elixir. What?
Sauvage elixir is easy to hate. It’s not made to please everyone.
Moustache is fantastic. There is no weakness in my opinion. good performance for an EDP. it is a fantastic, semi-sweet woody vanilla amber scent.
I’d say Dylan Blue is the intellectuals alternative to Bleu de Chanel, very similar dna, less than half the price, double the projection an longevity... but some people are snobs and only focus on the brand and price. But you’re an idiot of you pick BDC over Dylan Blue. It’s the better deal all round.
Agreed and i actually like the smell of Dylan blue more don’t get me wrong bdc is amazing but There’s just something about db
I'm living in Brazil, here people generally don't have a taste for fragrances, that means I can rock Sauvage all day and still be unique lol
I picked it up over DB and BDC because I really appreciate long lasting fragrances and also, most people that diss on Sauvage is due to it being so popular on more evolved countries but that's not an issue I have to face here in the tropical coutry lol
So true man DB lasts so long for a modern EDT and the projection is superb
Wanted by Night is the layering king. I spray it as a base layer for a ton of fragrances, including it’s flanker brother The Most Wanted. It’s the rare cold weather(only) freshie w/ a synthetic cinnamon sweetness that pairs well with 90% of men’s fragrances.
I feel like people like Dylan blue alot more then fragrance youtubers

Personally, I look for and buy an ancient Avon cologne called Oland. I discovered it 20 years ago after buying a box lot at an estate sale.

However absolutely was my favourite scent of the 3. It has an added booze note to it which I feel makes it more well rounded and even more mass appealing. The original SWY has strong projection and longetivity as is the DNA of the line, but is weaker than intensely and absolutely. However the original had the strongest vanilla note by my experience. It comes down to personal preference but I would recommend Absolutely since that is my favourite.
@@nintendostar199 Sounds great. The rum note in Absolutely is definitely what intrigued me. Hopefully I can find it soon
@@nintendostar199 where’d ya snag Absolutely?
Love your comments: "So laid back that it barely smells like anything."
I'm thinking about blind buying either YSL Y EDP or Le Parfum. In your opinion which would you say pulls more compliments? I've heard some people say that the EDP has been reformulated and isn't nearly as strong. Also how do you feel about Prada Luna Rossa Carbon?
YSL Y EDP Will not let u down trust me I blind bought it to and it over satisfied me plus it’s versatile 🔥
I bought Y EDP after testing it in a store once. It’s definitely a solid blind buy. I have recieved several compliments about it since I bought it. It stands out more than Luna Rosa Carbon
Man I just bought Dylan blue and she said that 😭
Doesn't matter what she says. It's really good use it.
@@stanford2590 oh yeah ik it was just a joke
@@gerardorafaelriosverdun6374 how much long lasting Do you get compliments?
@@NJ-ic5kx i also wear it quite often, and I constantly get compliments. the performance is also good, it lasts about 7 hours on my skin.
I don’t agree that YSL Y EDP is better than the Sauvage EDP. Y is too sweet and dries down into something synthetic.
If you can.. give us a pt2.. Enjoyed as usual💪🏿 "THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
Completely agree with all your corrections. Jus de Rose or whatever her name is doesn't seem that into the hobby on a grander scale. Her commentary was off on many of the classics.
I agree with you on the Tuxedo comment, Richard mustache is a better choice
This made me think I should take a look at Bvlgari Man In Black
I like your videos = Pure Inspiration for me, Thank you. Very good list. Seven fragrances, I enjoy in January 2022, are: Tom Ford Tobacco Oud, Paco Rabanne Pure XS, Lalique Encre Noire L´ Extreme, Hugo Boss Bottled Intense EDP, Rochas Moustache EDP, Ted Lapidus Altamir and Hugo Boss The Scent Absolute EDP. Happy New Year !
Brilliant as usual
Hi Omar can you please do a review of Xerjoff Golden Dallah? It's such an underrated perfume and perfectly unisex, both guys and dolls will enjoy this incredible gourmand oriental scent 👌👍
Need to look in to it 👌
Omar, thoughts on Chanel Egoiste and Chanel Platinum Egoiste?
Platinum is a much better blended fragrance imo, both are mature fragrances 35+
@@SchoolOfScent Thanks for the reply! Seems most of the big frag heads prefer Egoiste as well. As a scent, it's certainly ... interesting.
Mustache is nice but Tuxedo is a bit more potent
Man in Black or Luna Rossa Black Omar? 🤔
Appreciate your response 🙌🏻
MIB if you’re 30+ Luna if you’re under
@@SchoolOfScent Thanks Omar!
There's a strange trend, don't know if only among influencers, but the one where we are being told that woody, heavily spicy fragrances are sexy and most alluring. From my experience I can say that nothing works better in grabbing women's attention than blue fragrances. Well, perhaps if you mingle with the high crowd, where the most bizarre fragrance creations cause wows and oohs, then perhaps you should go for wood, tobacco and other odd (oud hahaha) stuff. Otherwise go for something like L' Eau Par Kenzo, Davidoff Cool Water or Dali Le Roy Soleil, and you will get tons of compliments. And if you want something more sophisticated, go for Fahrenheit or Bleu de Chanel (Allure is way overhyped, smells like 80s cologne).
Great reaction video and agree with theajority of your comments. I don't always agree with Josephine, but most of what she says in this one is correct too. Only one I disagree with you both on is Luna Rossa Black which I personally find very boring and a bit of a nothing fragrance. I actually like Luna Rossa Ocean much more, a bit more interesting.
Isn’t side effect better than rehab?
Dont take tuxedo (expansive), take Moustache. BUT "Turathi Brown" is better for less. Trust me
Hadn’t heard of it, nice
Top video as always, Can you recommend me a sexy night fragrance for the summer that is loud project very well. Thank you
Thank you my friend and I think Hawas would work in this case
@@SchoolOfScent Thank you I will give it a try. Do you think spice bomb extreme would work?
@@krysh9279 Spicebomb Extreme is more of a winter fragrance imo
@@sk8boarderrr yes I know, I haven’t try it in the summer at night. 😊
Can you tell me which is the most sexiest men's cologne in the world I really would like to know what is that something that smells so good that everyone would notice thank you Romero
Hello omar . Bravo on all videos. Please take a look at loewe agua d calador and loewe 7 natural and comme des garcons collection
Have you ever tried Aaron Terence Hughes fragrances? He has some super unique stuff. Definitely sniff worthy.
Only tried smoulder and you’re right, incredible!
Do you guys think they will be available in Africa?... Namibian 🇳🇦/South Africa🇿🇦. great videos Omar..... greetings from Namibia.
The Dylan Blue collective were certainly upset in these comments😂
Too be honest you guys I'm not sure what make of this, Salvatore Ferragamo and Givenchy no where on the line up
I Usually stay away from reviews with ‘sexy’ in title.
Watched a bunch you are the best
Momma's boy for Dylan Blue, lemme just adjust my fragrantica profile real quick
Versace EROS EDP or YSL Y EDP ?
1 million still my favorite
With allure homme sport eau extreme.....You don't think of tonka bean when you are at the gym 😂
Dude, what du u powder yer dome with?
Hey @schoolofscent can you review « l’insoumis by lalique » ?
Thoughts on 212 VIP mate ?
Amazing. 👍👍
The hate on Dylan Blue by fragrance snobs is unreal 😂 Chill out snobs,fragrances are highly subjective so why all the hate
Surprisingly she hates Dylan Blue.
Damn. It's a compliment machine for me. Especially women.
Armani Code is such an overhyped fragrance. There's nothing unique about it. If I were to choose fragrances that have recently caused me a "wow" reaction, I'd choose Terre d'Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver (or any Terre d'Hermes really) and Spicebomb original (didn't know this one).
We want to know how many bottles u have in ur collection. Because I refuse to listen to someone who is collecting is mainly de cats and speaks about Fragrancenet he’s never smelled
I had over 100 at one point, but I’ve sold/given away a lot, I’m maybe down to 60 now and I will be downsizing the collection even further
@@SchoolOfScent why u downsizing more brother?? I have a shit load so I’m asking because they’re must be a good reason
@@slimeade187 Will make a full video on it soon!
I think Rose’s over-pronunciations would make even a Frenchman gag.
You don’t like Versace Dylan blue?
He looks like a top g
How about a list for the ladies 🤞👌🌷🌺🌸🌹😃
Blue electrique is so different from la nuit og
Dylan blue..... Meh🙁😕
No one decide on behalf of millions of users. Can't ignore sauvage elixir.
Rochas is not even close to tuxedo. Its tooo sharp and not refined enough for my liking of the DNA. We’re talking no compliments from multiple wears to 5+ compliments from one single wear
Nice video👍
Nice thanks Lance!
Did you notice Josephine gets so carried away by speaking French ! She starts pronouncing English Words also with a French Accent lol !!
That was funny, way you said "dylan blue is the worst" and put that on cover video
Yeah ultra male is literally cotton candy lol
I don't get any compliments from Dylan Blue
Easy Dude JuDeRose is married...lol
