Thank you for the review. I have Detour Noir and love it. Unlike other people I do love the bottle design, too. It's a beast! I have two bottles of Dusk. I don't think I need the Orientica. Getting only 60 ml is a rip off. There is now a Detour Noir Exclusif which is a clone of Layton Exclusif. It would be interesting to see what that one smells like. Cheers.
I have Orientica Royal Bleu and Lalique White in Black... They are not at all redundant... When I want something quiet and reserved, I go with the Lalique... When I want something attention grabbing and loud, I go with the Orientica (and Royal Bleu comes in 80ml unlike Xclusif Oud Blue and I paid 60$ for it here in Romania)...
Nice video George. However (and IMHO) you are missing the 3 absolute best (smell profile, performance, projection) clones of Layton from your video - Amber Oud Exclusif Bleu, Montagne Parfums Vanille Fraiche and Alexandria's Royal Equestrian.
The Amber oud exclusif blue is the same juice as the orientica, Al Haramain owns orientica and wanted to re-release orientica exclusif but didn’t want to put Al Haramain logo so they used the bottles of Amber oud line and took the juice from their orientica because the Amber oud line were selling so people would recognise it as Al Haramain and buy
Very well done. Your selection of fragrances to compare was great. Your process and explanations were well presented. I am impressed. I'm buying Dusk by the way as a result of your great review. And of course, subscribing to your Channel.
Dusk is great, just don’t expect it to perform beastly and end up being disappointed. I’m testing a new one from Orientica which also seems great so far :)
Don’t worry! Dusk is one of the 4 best clones that I have tried! :) Between those 4 the difference is minute really :) And Dusk is still one of my 2 most favorite ones 😁
Bro.. does anyone else have problem when i try to watch this channel ? I'm always getting videos but only in this channel.. it's starts and after 1 minute or so it's stop and reloading forever.. 😢😢😢
@@thenicesmellinggentleman Don't know but i restart phone and i was able to watch.. and after i tried another video from you and again didn't work after 1-2 min starting reloading and stay like that.. it's working after restart 😂😂😂
Paris Corner North Stag Deux is still difficult to find with discounters. But it looks like it is being hyped by reviewers. Many are saying it is very close to Layton and even better than Dusk. Then there is the Maison Alhambra one that is out called Leyden, which is comparable to Detour Noir. I love Detour Noir and use it often. No need to open my Dusk. And I won't be getting on the hype train to get Deux. If I ever get the money I MAY consider getting the OG. But for now, no. I'm good. I'm happy and grateful.
i prefer orientica...what an amazing fragrance. wow. But Deux is such amazing value for the money. Hard to beat. I got same lineup with Paragon comign in this week.
@@patrickmeijer2796 theyre both good, but orientica is way denser. id almost say orientica is a nighttime fragrance and deux is more balanced. Orientica is amazing tho. Deux nice too tho. Theyre both better than the cheaper options like Leyton and Detour imo
@@TevinC814 not surprised given the prices they are charging, there is miraj from fragrance world supposed to be the best right now and about half the price of orientica
Al haramain detour noir is actually in last place in my opinion. Opening is terrible. Smell a little rough. Dusk and north stag deux are actually the 2 best clones. Very refined and the opening are very smooth. Dusk is layton but a bit fresher. North stag deux is the closes. And yes i tried them all 😁😇
Best comparation ever! thank you!

Is the Orientica Royal Bleu the exact same as the Xclusif Oud Bleu ... or different ??

Hey man, why is Zimaya Royal Paragon not here. You already reviewed it too right?
Hey mate! In my opinion Paragon is more like a mix between the regular Layton and Exclusif, that’s why I didn’t include it in this video :)
Deux for 40 eur or royal blue 60 . Which one should i get?
Detour noir is beast mode on me, I had Dusk and the scent changed over time so I gave it away
What changed about it
Yea what has changed?
I have both, dusk smells so much better to me but lasts like 4hrs only sadly....

Orientica XO BLUE is around £85 in UK not worth it. DUSK i will use on special occasions - detour noir all the way for every day use
