I keep passing ove Molecule 01 cause for the price it's like 😩 this much just to layer with. I know people like it on its own too but just wish it would drop to a more reasonable price. And now all the molecules are like +patchouli +something
Davidoff - Hot Water was a blind buy for me 10 years ago, and it's been my go to everyday fragrance during the fall/winter since! The only drawback is the longevity for most but for me it lasts 8+ hours, i can spray it before work and still smell it when coming home!
Woooo!! Starlight got featuredd!! Probably one of my all time favs from Xerjoff. That cardamom is insaaaaaaaaanneeeeeeeee, and it smells like a million bucks overall! 🔥🔥 Edit: Ayyy, Ash agrees too! 🤘🤘🔥
Love that you addressed Dolce G. The one. I thought it was just my bottle that was "weak". Smells great, but like you said, isn't very strong. Thank you.
Awesome list. The Azzaro frags and SWY are obvious winners in this category. I especially love Starlight, Coral Fantasy, and Hero EDP. Really looking forward to some cool days to rock these.
I recently blind bought mercedes benz club black and its everything I've heard it to be. However, I also recently blind bought liquid brun and I gotta say, (although not the same) they remind me of each other and every time I wanna wear something in that vanilla category, I reach for the liquid brun. It just has that something extra.
I have the following: 1. Aqua Di Gio Parfum (2023); 2. D&G Light Blue Intense; 3. Bleu De Chanel Parfum; 4. PDM Percival; 5. Spice Bomb Extreme; 6. Afnan Supreme Not Only Intense; 7. Al Haramain L adventure intense; 8. Loewe Cobalt 7; 9. Mancera Cedrat Boise Intense; 10. Chanel Platinum Egoiste; 11. Gisada Ambassador Intense; 12. Hawas (OG freshie). How would you round off my collection?
Blind bought Prada L’Homme Intense and Stronger With You Absolutely (this one I got yesterday) and I absolutely love them! On the other hand, I blind bought a sample of Nasomatto Pardon, Les Indemodables Vanille Havane, Blonde Amber by Clive Christian and I absolutely hate them (I guess sampling might not be considered blind buying but I put them here anyway)
The only thing I will say with Stronger With You Absolutely is that I own Azzaro The Most Wanted EDP Intense and to my beginner nose, those 2 smell EXTREMELY similar to me which made me slightly disappointed because I felt like I got a redundant fragrance… but in terms of scent, it is AMAZING
Tuxedo, Xerjoff Alexandria II, Killian Black Phantom, Xerjoff Naxos, Killian Intoxicated, Vilhelm Chicago High, Mind Games French Defense, LV Ombre Nomade, Jo Malone Velvet Rose and Oud are my current fall/winter lineup.
The Most Wanted is a tough choice, because the Intense version is a lot more versatile and I could see it being worn more often, but I like the smell of the Parfum more.
Re: "making sense to sample" - to minimize cost, get multiple samples from one retailer. The shipping cost of a single sample will be about the same as that of one order with ten (10) samples. Make a list of what you want to sample. When the sample list gets to 5+, find a retailer that covers your list.
That's exactly what I did. I wanted to try one million lucky so I found the site with that one for the cheapest price then researched a bunch and wound up with 9 different ones to try out and I'll buy a bottle of the ones I like the most. It comes tomorrow 😀
I know a lot of people bash it but how was Replica Jazz Club not on their? That is by far my favorite fall/winter fragrance and I get nothing but compliments every time I wear it
I used up my original bottle of The One EDP from 2015 about a year ago, and I just blind bought Mancera Hindu Kush. Is it just me or do these two smell really similar in the mid? Albeit I haven’t smelled The One in almost a year, and I’ve only used the Hindu Kush once.
I think Prada Luna Rosa Black is phenomenal. Rather being similar to Bulgari Man in Black it is what you'd get if you could take out juicy dose of spicebomb edt thats in Man in Black. What you end up with is a very much less complex, less spicy, less colorfull and less busy scent and yet one that comes as a complete package. It is warm, it is sweet, smooth amber and inviting vanilla. That can be enough if you do it right as Prada has done here.
All my Fragrances are Blind Buys, I rely on videos like these to make my decision because Japan has a very small amount of boutiques and beauty shops that sell fragrances, it's getting better but Japan before HATED fragrances unless it smelt clean like what you'd get from laundry detergent or body soap
@@yanisyns6427Dior homme intense smells the best of the group.. and uomo intense is better than all of them. Don’t shoot the messenger though just my opinion. If you like Dior homme intense, GET the Valentino over the Dior parfum and Prada lhomme intense.
I own LR Black and I really like it, but it has a weird 'aftersmell', once you smell LRB (and it's in your nose) all other fragrances smell completely different than normal. I don't have this with any other fragrances, anybody else experienced the same with LRB?
I was wearing Azzaro TMW Parfum last Fall… early October… cool enough. Anyway… My ol man told me I smelled like a girl.. haha.. Too sweet for him. I still think it’s ok. The OG TMW is probably better… spicier.
There are two other months besides fall and winter. Not sure why the audience can’t understand that. Missoni Wave and CDN Milestones are great blind buys that can be all year daily scents.
Lucky is only available in the U.S. There was a time when it couldn't be found, and seemed discontinued. But it's been available in the U.S. for the last couple years of so
I have probably 15 bottles of fragrances right now, and I'm only disappointed with Moschino Toy Boy. It gives me headaches and I can't sell it because no one wants it
Lol more editor errors? At the mention of Azzaro The Most Wanted, the note breakdown on the left for the EDP is completely wrong. It's mostly warm spicy and sweet, not citrus and lavender lol.
I live in the US more specifically CA, I’m able to find 1M Lucky at every Macy’s I go to and a couple of Sephora’s & Ulta’s… it’s also still available on their website Rabanne. However, it is harder to find on discounters. FragranceNet is your best bet at finding out of all discounters but even then they only offer the 50ml version from time to time. Hope this helps
I’ve bought all my frags based off all ash’s opinion that’s 12 for 12 so far
I blind buy all my fragrances. I never disappointed. Even if i am disappointed, i am not
They all eventually grow on me lol
Was disappointed in my Lattafa Oud for Glory blind buy… WAS. I love it. I’m gonna wear it all fall and winter. It matured nicely.
Who else blind buys all their fragrances? 🙋
👋
Practically all 105, I like to live dangerously
Almost all lol
Its what keeps it exciting
I love the thrill. Some hits and some miss like horribly misses 😂
I layered Molecule 01 under The One the other day and it was blasting loudly off my skin for 7-8hrs. Amazing performance.
I’ve never had a major issue with The One EDP… or edt for that matter.
But point taken..
Me either @@houseadams4841

This content is goated. You asking the hive mind for input and then giving your educated opinion on it is great!
the accords for the most Wanted are INCORRECT!!!!!!
I blind bought Layton and Sauvage Exlir….zero regrets they are incredible and my two favorite gems!
Davidoff - Hot Water was a blind buy for me 10 years ago, and it's been my go to everyday fragrance during the fall/winter since!
The only drawback is the longevity for most but for me it lasts 8+ hours, i can spray it before work and still smell it when coming home!
I blind bought red tobacco... I love it
I just blind bought red tobacco intense
@@lamontej90 Do you like it?
Be sure to apply, at minimum, 25 sprays before going to the gym.
@@kevinranders i do that and i bagged all the gym baddies
@@shamusteakiawa it comes in tomorrow
I blind bought Jean Lowe Immortal, LV clone. Fantastic dupe.
Woooo!! Starlight got featuredd!! Probably one of my all time favs from Xerjoff. That cardamom is insaaaaaaaaanneeeeeeeee, and it smells like a million bucks overall! 🔥🔥 Edit: Ayyy, Ash agrees too! 🤘🤘🔥
Been a favorite of mine since i got it, top tier blind buy
Been so interested in trying it since I saw the notes but I wanna test it first
Love that you addressed Dolce G. The one.
I thought it was just my bottle that was "weak". Smells great, but like you said, isn't very strong.
Thank you.
The One and Club Black are the best on that table.
Mercedes Benz Club Black is a great hidden gem. My teenage son stole my first bottle so I had to get another
The one edp works in all 4 seasons ,it's a must have if you're 25 and older and into fragrances .
Just blind bought Spiecebomb Extreme. Can't wait to smell it :)
I love it. After it drys down it is my favorite.
I have it as well, the dry down is magnificent
@@ScentBlast I’m gonna wear it a lot this winter. I also enjoy my one million royal and jpg le male elixir
@@nathanyoungblood6031 Stronger with you Absolutely is on my list next :)
@@ScentBlast I haven’t tried that one yet. Have you tried the one million royal?
Awesome list. The Azzaro frags and SWY are obvious winners in this category. I especially love Starlight, Coral Fantasy, and Hero EDP. Really looking forward to some cool days to rock these.
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
I recently blind bought JPG elixir/Azzaro MW edp / YSL Y / Naxos and so far zero regrets 😅
How does naxos compare to jpg elixir?
Can’t go wrong with red tobacco and Most Wanted!!!
Warren g reference 😭😭
can you show off your collection of colognes i love your videos i used to watch them in spanish a lot
Pasha de Cartier - the booziness is perfect for fall/winter
Super surprised Versace Eros Flame wasn’t on this
My best blind buy thus far has been Mancera Intense Cedrat Boise closely followed by Aoud Lemon Mint. Worst? Soliel D'Talie.
I recently blind bought mercedes benz club black and its everything I've heard it to be. However, I also recently blind bought liquid brun and I gotta say, (although not the same) they remind me of each other and every time I wanna wear something in that vanilla category, I reach for the liquid brun.

just tried goldfield and banks silky woods. reminds me of it but possibly even better... worth a try if you like club black
Yooo sick Coffee World t-shirt!! I love Alan Wake
Hi Ash, c
Can you make a video about the best coffee scent?
Intense cafe, golden moka, la tacita de cafe. You're welcome.
I have the following: 1. Aqua Di Gio Parfum (2023); 2. D&G Light Blue Intense; 3. Bleu De Chanel Parfum; 4. PDM Percival; 5. Spice Bomb Extreme; 6. Afnan Supreme Not Only Intense; 7.

That’s a really fun rotation 👍😊
You getting money to have those, lol I like it.
Niche niche and more niche! Way too expensive for the vast majority of people
The Most Wanted is a tough choice, because the Intense version is a lot more versatile and I could see it being worn more often, but I like the smell of the Parfum more.
I like being surprised..if it doesn't perform it gets sent to the rest room.. RASASI yumn and Ibreeze were blind buys I enjoy..
Tight

🔥 review and choice's for fall 🍂🍁 love the video Gents Scents stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Some great frags in there!
don't see this mentioned anywhere but for my nose luna rossa black and Armani - Eau De Nuit are extremely similar, love that dnk
Banger List Right here!! 🙌🤙🤙
Mercedes Benz Sign is one of my favorite fragrances
I know a lot of people bash it but how was Replica Jazz Club not on their? That is by far my favorite fall/winter fragrance and I get nothing but compliments every time I wear it
Yooo should I grab Valentino BNR Intense or BNR Coral?
I used up my original bottle of The One EDP from 2015 about a year ago, and I just blind bought Mancera Hindu Kush. Is it just me or do these two smell really similar in the mid? Albeit I haven’t smelled The One in almost a year, and I’ve only used the Hindu Kush once.
Holy cow, the atomizer on your MB Club Black looks like the greatest atomizer in the world compared to mine!
I've always got great performance from the One EDP.
With great power comes great versatility
Those little dances, i know all too well about that. It is both involuntary, untill noticed. Then it becomes voluntary😂
Can’t get over the odd shampoo type smell I get off of the one EDP. Nobody else seems to smell it when I bring it up though.

Question? Is it redundant to buy The One edp if u already have The One Royal Night?
Probably. Literally like 90+% the same.
The Warren G regulator reference was Gold 🔥
It’s hard to go wrong with xerjoff butbto blind buy one is a huge gamble lol. Expensive fragrance to blind buy, but xerjoff won’t do you wrong
Not until now but going to give it a go based on this. See how I get on?
Gucci intense oud - herod - carlisle - oud malaki - ombre leather
Is Burberry London unisex?
Is Trussardi Primo.out yet in the US?
Also guess red currant and balsam
Hey ash could you do a review on bharara king please??
I want that shirt lol I almost got the Uomo Ferragammo but my package was stolen before I got home😥
I like the new boss bottles Absolu.
I blind bought iver 85 fragrance in last 2 years and probably missed on 10 which become xmas gifts.
Very interesting what happened to the benz's price. By the way, what the heck happened with ferrari fragrances?
They discontinued the whole line
I blind buy all my frags, gotta risk it for a biscuit. Only one duff one and that was MB EUB.
Prada L’homme Intense is my favorite Iris fragrance….
Slightly better then Dior Homme Parfum…
I’ve never had a chance to smell Dior Homme Parfum, is it better than Dior Homme Intense? (I have a sample of Dior Homme Intense which I really like)
@@yanisyns6427Dior homme intense smells the best of the group.. and uomo intense is better than all of them. Don’t shoot the messenger though just my opinion. If you like Dior homme intense, GET the Valentino over the Dior parfum and Prada lhomme intense.
Benz Club Black is my GOAT
anything close to pure malt?
Blind bought Prada L'Homme Intense. Just sent it back today. It made me sad...like a funeral
Yup. Nothing like the OG.
What are some amaretto scented colognes?
you can search by notes on fragrantica. just type in that single note and then you can sort by male / female/ unisex
I own LR Black and I really like it, but it has a weird 'aftersmell', once you smell LRB (and it's in your nose) all other fragrances smell completely different than normal. I don't have this with any other fragrances, anybody else experienced the same with LRB?
what about spicebomb extream???
Thank you Ash.
I thought I'd love Starlight, so I blind bought it. Unfortunately, didn't work for me.
I’m about to blind buy coral fantasy
Please don't. Do you really need another perfume?
Don't unless you like fragrances that are at least 50% harsh, polarizing tobacco. It's not super youthful either...
To me it smells like the apple cinnamon air fresheners. The glade ones.
Go for it, it’s definitely worth it!
To me it smells like fresh cut wood.
I was wearing Azzaro TMW Parfum last Fall… early October… cool enough. Anyway…
My ol man told me I smelled like a girl.. haha..
Too sweet for him.
I still think it’s ok.
The OG TMW is probably better… spicier.
How's performance of Mercedes Benz Club Black?
Weak
4-6 hours. Average.
It's like a candyshop. All of this fragrances is sweet or wery sweet
There are two other months besides fall and winter. Not sure why the audience can’t understand that.
Missoni Wave and CDN Milestones are great blind buys that can be all year daily scents.
Months?
Can anyone contrast/ compare liquid brun and Mercedes club black? Have brun and wondering if mcb would be redundant
I read thumbnail as Mus Towns - and thought where’s that?
Glazed chestnut as a scent note.
Have you ever smelled a glazed chestnut?
Might have been nice to let me know what Starlight smells like ??
I got 5 of them, that means you got taste ;)
Is it versa-tal or versa-tile?
Tile
I cant afford to blind buy anything thats more than like $30, but i do have 1million lucky sample coming and im hoping i like it so i can buy a bottle
I actually laughed out loud at nutty warmth lol. Get as sophisticated as you want - mens humor is still mens humor.
1821 Sweet Tobacco Spirits
Jpg le male elixir is such an underrated fall slammer
Wait. One Million Lucky isn’t discontinued??????
Not too sure exactly, some frag creators say it is & others say it isn’t

is it only for special occasions like date nights n holidays? I got a sample n love it i would like to get decent use of it you feel
