Surprised to not see CREED Green Irish Tweed 🍀 . It will suit your personality impo
I used to have a sample of that one. Loved it!
@@40OverFashion Al-Haramain L'Aventure Knight is a great clone of Green Irish Tweed at 10% of the price. It doesn't quite have the performance of GIT but the scent is excellent.
GIT ☘️ is my favorite fragrance.
@@40OverFashion Royal Crown Rain is better, cuz it last longer that creed Iris t. To me creed is a rip off, you like aventus try electimuss imperium. Is the same but it last longer
as a guy with around 250 bottles in my collection, a few points: creed sucks. it is watered down now and weakened in quality, with a price increase. its ridiculous. so, instead of even mont blanc (pronounced mon blonk), get Armaf "club de nuit intense man". it'll run you maybe $35 and is easily almost identical to the $375 creed aventus. same scent, 1/10th the price. just as good as explorer. now, you are missing some seriously great frags. firstly, skip sauvage edt,edp,and parfum. the one you want is elixir. while under the sauvage banner, it smells nothing like them. it is a masterpiece, more gentlemanly than the "younger leaning" sauvage. truist me, elixir is going to become an all-time classic. get it. for the blue genre of frags, like dylan blue, the number one is bleu de chanel. thats a must-buy. dylan blue pales in comparison to it. you also need terre d'hermes. it is a brilliant orange and woods (vetiver) type fragrance. jean-paul gaultier is what you want for date night, the le male flanker, le parfum. for tom ford, you want ombre leather.
(try smelling vintage suede body wash, by cremo. it's identical). for pure class and sophistication, you want bottega veneta pour homme. all these are must-owns, and if you up your fragrance game by getting these, you will be amazed at what you have been missing out on. trust me, i know my shit when it comes to fragrances. these are fantastic scents, for a slightly older demographic than teens wearing scents to go clubbing.
Thanks for commenting Steve!
This comments adds value to the video 👍
As a guy also into fragrances, I agree with this comment at almost all points. My only issue is CDNIM can have a harsh synthetic drydown, so sample it first.
Great video brother. I'm very pleased with my fragrance collection. I had 30 in my collection at one time.
I realized over time that 30 wasn't necessary. I chose my 12 fragrances based around my wearing pleasure and compliments received.
I recommend adding a deostick with the same smell as your colognes, it prolongs and enhances the scent! Great collection btw😀!
Thank you!
I sprayed some Acqua di gio Profumo on a card and left it in car, 3 days later you could still smell it - love it.
Your collection is exactly the size of my collection, but you’ve got some heavy hitters there! There’s nothing unusual about liking a fragrance but never wearing it, just as I can admire someone’s outfit while also realizing it’s not right for me.
John, look into the high quality Penhaligon's line of fragrances from London. My signature scent is Opus 1870 and I love it, especially for evening. Penhaligon's isn't oversaturated here in the States, so you can stand out with something unique.
penhaligons is very nice house
@@Kadaf1 Yep, I really like Penhaligon's. They have a wide range of fragrances. I also like Blenheim Bouquet. Their shaving soaps and creams are fantastic too.
Yeah, you definitely should try Green Irish Tweed! Definitely in my top five all time favorites. Terre De Hermes layered with TF Ombré Leather is good too!
Thanks for the suggestion!
If a fragrance you love is a weak performer try over spraying the fragrance. I also spray on my shirt as well and it will last a lot longer. Great video.
Absolutely! Great advice.
Natural fibers is important as well. Something the oils can be absorbed into as opposed to sit on is key. Even a 50/50 cotton blend will work.
Marco4UPerfumes is the only RUclipsr I've ever come across who stresses the type of fiber. I wish more of them would share this info.
Overspraying won’t improve the sillage, but just intensify the immediate smell. That’s not a great solution.
Think of it this way: why would any one molecule of a scent last longer just bc it’s accompanied with another molecule of equal sillage? It doesn’t. But it could make you intolerable for the first hour or so.
@@joer8273 agreed. But i believe sillage wasnt really the topic tho. At least that's not how I took it.
When I see "performance" I think more like longevity. I've never really ever said to myself "Man, I wish this St Bart's had better sillage" but I have wished it didn't die down so incredibly fast.
@@russellborrego1689 great point Russell. You’re right. I should have paid closer attention. Thanks for the response.
@@joer8273 no matter what, your molecule explanation was still very relevant. Also a great contribution towards busting some of the myths around fragrances.
Always write down the ones that sound great to me! This is why I love 💕 your RUclips! Always great materials!!
Thank you Frank!
Hey John. So, your video a year or two ago on your most worns kickstarted my fragrance collection - I started with Mont Blanc Legend and Varvatos Artisan Pure... and just kept on going. Thanks; you opened up a new world for me! (Of course thanks also for my suffering bank account, I guess! Haha). My rotation this Summer has been MB Legend, Chanel Allure Homme Sport Cologne (the lemon-heavy one), Versace Pour Homme, and Prada Luna Rossa Ocean.
And thanks for your updated list today!
Love it Tom! And sorry about the bank account! :)
I bought Legend on John's advice and don't regret it. An excellent fresh fragrance and quite affordable. Long gone but might get another bottle some day.
fyi...ocean is a good "blue genre" fragrance, but smells nothing like it's name. before spending money on it, as it lasts 10 minutes and disappears quickly, get bleu de chanel instead, or dylan blue, or a cheapie like ferragamo intense leather, they are superior blue genre frags to ocean and last way longer.
Just picked up Versace Dylan blue .30 oz for $19.99 at ROSS. My top guns right now are bleu de Chanel edp (about 6 yrs old) and Bvlgari Tygar 1oz.
Good one, really good one. "Because I can...it's MY channel." Classy!
One that I really like is Versace - The Dreamer but I never reach for or wear it. I like the initial fragrances, but then it turns to a powdery smell after a an hour or so which is why I don't wear it very much.
As a general rule for colognes, I wear what I like and what has a different scent from the norm. One of these scents is Hypnôse by Lancome, starts off strong and softens throughout the day, I recommend it. Pete & Pedro's Villan smells great as well and really lasts!
My daily fragrance has been Dolce and Gabbana the one intense. I had compliments before I even got out of the store from the sample the salesperson gave me to smell before I bought it!
Thx for the episode. I have 1 cologne I’ve used for over 20 years and have had many compliments on it “Gendarme”. I’m not exactly daredevil with scents. I find what I like and pretty much stick with it.
What is your fragrance?
The classics and old school fragrances are not to be overlooked particularly if you want a signature scent that smells different than modern trendy fragrances. I.e. Bogart Pour Homme.
Thanks for sharing your fragrances John! I got into fragrances a few months back - very interesting world to me!
Always look forward to your videos.
I'm a bit of a minimalist and can't see owning 16 bottles of cologne though I will mix my own essential oils to fit my needs. Have you tried this?
Look forward to seeing your next release!
I just bought the Mont Blanc Legend Spirit recently and I have to agree it smells soooo nice!
Agreed!
New sub, after you popped up in my recommends. Great video!
Zaharoff is my fave house, and every scent of his is superb. Niche quality perfumery at designer prices.
Thank you very much!
That’s what my daughter told me about the Versace Aeros call she said she liked it but she thought the fragrance was more suited for younger guys so I get where are you going with that one John
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Interesting video. I must say I don't own that many colognes, I have only 2 the first one you will LOL, due to where one can purchase it & how cheap it is, called " Really Ripped Abs" by BOD, the sent is very fresh & on me it last 6 to 7 hours plus I get plenty of compliments. The 2nd cologne is "Declaration Cartier Men Eau de Parfum 3.4 Spray" I tend to use this one on special occasions. Lastly, recently a colleague of mine went to my native country of Madrid, Spain, & purchased the cologne of actor Antonio Banderas, because he thought since I'm from Spain & so is Antonio I would like it, called "King of Seduction" I haven't worn it yet.
When I first turned 13 and began developing a "Grown Man Aroma" my mom bought me Brut cologne. A few years later, she got me a bottle of Lagerfeld cologne. It contains top scented notes of bergamot, tarragon, sage, lemon, and aldehydes. It's been my signature scent since. I also have AVON's Black Suede. It has that woody smell. In the future I might try Kenneth Cole Black.🖤🖤🖤🖤
vintage black and copper black are better than the basic original, just a heads up from a guy with about 250 bottles in my collection.
In high school, my scent was the ever classic Aqua Velva!...lol
Sorry, quick error. Meant to say black bold is the best of the 4, followed by copper, then vintage, then the original imho.
Brut was fantastic
Thanks John, I am always looking up reviews on the best men's fragrances and this video helps a lot. I'm not allowed to wear a cologne at work and rarely go to social events, so I like to wear something to the gym that is not over powering. I'm older and not into the younger scents like Axe, etc., I must say that the Aqua Di Gio to me is more for the boys in their teens and 20s, however it does smell awesome. One of my all time fragrances is Chrome by Azzaro, which is more for the evening. I am going to take your word for it and order some of the Legend. Have a great weekend......zoom, zoom, zoommmmmmm
My go to fragrance has to be Tom Ford’s Neroli Fortofino. Legend.
I bought mont blanc legend spirit after watching a review you gave it years back and have loved it... use it a lot during warmer months up here in the PACNW. Thanks for the recommendation sir 😎 love the living room set up for this vid, place looks great!
Thank you Murray!
It should also be said that you can get a 1.6oz of Legend Spirit for $20 from discounters. Where else are you going to get that price/performance ratio?
I have newer Creeds (1 year old), specifically Silver Mountain Water and Aventus. They both perform great. I have gotten compliments on Aventus nearly 12 hours after spraying it on.
Tom Ford Noir Extreme is powerful, yes. I have not worn it in a while, probably because it’s summertime. I will say it is the longest lasting cologne I’ve ever bought. You will smell it the morning after you wake up!
Hi John good to see you again love the selection I also like the tall vase in the background.
Keep up the good work.
Regards Christopher Barker
Thanks Christopher!
For me I have cheap, medium and best fragrance for each moment for the Gym or daily days use Náutica voyage, for my job use Mont Blanc individuel or CK one shock for special occasions my favorite Club de Nuit intense or John varbatos Rebel . Keep good work John.
I have quit a few of these. When it comes to Aventus, I can still smell it on my clothes (suits) a few days later, and I only spray it twice. One that you don't have that I enjoy a lot and have gotten a lot of compliments is Tom Ford For Men. It's underrated and Tom's first fragrance. I will give Legend a shot.
Thanks very much John for reminding me that a man is suppose to smell good,because when you have kids all your focus is on them and sometimes you end up neglecting yourself in the process-Good content as always
My collection that works well with my body chemistry …
RL Polo - Green
RL Polo - Leather
Creed - Viking
Creed - Green Irish Tweed
Creed - Royal Oud
Terre d’Hermes
Boss - The Scent “Private Accord”
Initio - Oud For Greatness
L’Occitaine - BAVX
Sheesh. Quality right there.
Nice review man! Own a few in your collection. Some of my daily go to fragrances are:
1. Mancera Cedrat Boise
2. Versace Dylan Blue
3. Rasasi Hawas
4. Chanel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme
5. Armani Code Absolu or Prada Black (night out)
I had Versace Dylan Blue but I definitely get more compliments on Versace Eros. Plus it lasts longer. One of the things I like most was the info on which colognes fade quickly/last longer. Thx
@@giskie7 yeah, I also own Eros EDT. Mine is a 2019 batch so longevity is pretty good on my skin and I have received compliments as well. Cheers! 👍🏽
Great video John, I have the Sauvage Dior that I hardly wear, also Yves Saint Laurent I two different ones which I love to wear.
One I found myself using all day it Cremo cologne No18 Palo Santo.
Not bad
Wore colognes off and on growing up! YSL L'Homme was my signature scent for years then in 2013 my collection took off. Have all seasons and occasions covered. Most complimented scent I've had was Carolina Herrera 212. It worked with my skin chemistry but it wasn't my favorite scent. Enjoy the hobby daily. Always have something different to wear
What's your collection?
@@BuddyQuaid Mostly designer brands! I have discontinued scents and desired batches of scents that have been watered down. Favorite houses are Chanel and Dior but I also wear stuff like Antonio Banderas Blue Seduction. I have Gucci Guilty Love Edition 2021 on its way. With fragrances you quickly figure out what you like and dislike. Sample out scents and just enjoy what you have. No one I know wears cologne in my social circle. Scent plays a small part of my overall presentation as I walk out the door to an event, work or just a casual day with family or friends.
Zaharoff is a sophisticated scent great for office and meetings. If they don’t last long, bring it along or fill up a tester with you. Aqua Dio Gio Profumo is great for evenings. Prada L’homme great office scent. Tom Ford all 3 are great! Spice Bomb, epic! Creed Millesime Imperial overpriced and watery. Try Club De Nuit Milestone instead. A tenth of the price smells 95% the same and lasts longer. Great topic John! I love franfrances!
Thank you!
So you just hit home John , fragrance is a hobby of mine for long time but a very expensiveone , we can have talks for hours about them .
Yes , experts when buying Aventus they go by batch number and Creed did dilute us recently and bumped prices on the newest batches and changed ingredients but not all of it because of the company greed
The regulations are banning some of ingredients each year so manufacturers have to cut corners everywhere to keep producing and that's why some of the staples gets discontinued.
Thanks for commenting Sam! Do you know the batch numbers I should look for and how to find them?
If you are not too particular (and I get that some people are) there are clone fragrances that can get you what you want at a fraction of the cost and not all (in fact most are not) 100% copies. I.e. Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Man (Creeed Aventus) ... as with most things do your research (RUclips is a good place to start) for all price ranges.
An interesting video would be a collaboration with a fragrance channel (because we can't be experts at everything). Max Forti or Steven from Redolessence would be nice channels in that they also care about fashion and style.
@@karlsenula9495 Max Forti is an excellent choice, I agree
Killer video man! Love
It. It made me want to go through my fragrances and change it up a bit. Btw… please let me know what shirt you were wearing on Saturday I sent you a message about! Loved it. 😊
You have to buy a bottle of Tom Ford Dark Cherry. I get compliments everytime I wear it.
Hi John. Instead of getting Creed Aventus, try Club de nuit intense by Armaf. It's the best Clone. Longevity and projection is awesome. He'll of a lot cheaper. My go to fragrance.
I went to pay at a petrol (gas) station one morning, wearing my Chanel Allure EDT and balm, walked by a woman about 45ish (7-8 on the hot index) when she stopped put her hand on my arm and said ' OMG what are you wearing - you've made me wet myself' I thought that was a pretty good endorsement, she was obviously embarrased as she went bright red and turned away immediately.
Another great video John, lots of choices for me to explore. Two of my long term favorites are Kouros from YSL and Pasha from Dior. Have you tried these, highly recommend. Always learn something from your videos, keep posting new content. Stay healthy and well - Dhilip.
Thank you!
Hey John, your reservation regarding the Creed Aventus is well-founded. Bought a bottle last year, used 2 or 3 applications, and returned it (full refund) back to Nordstrom. Only time I've ever done that in my life. It just didn't have the presence that it used to, not even close IMHO. Thanks for all the good info, sir!
Thanks for the heads up!
Hello John, how are you?I'm digging the video and list. I got into collecting Fragrances about 4 years ago I have about 150ish and I have some of same ones you have, you have to be careful it's very habit forming and can get expensive but thank you for sharing 😊. STAY SAFE BROTHER
Thanks Greg!
Second that .. I collect fragrances and watches both hobbies that can get expensive.
Nice video John I went with mont blanc spirit legend on your previous recommendations and it's been a solid wear for me since. I have used YSL Kouros which is an old scent now but still works for me. If you live in the UK Bespoke do a range available from super drug very cheap but excellent scents, my fav is wild herb and tonka bean. Keep the vids coming john cheers
Great video, I want to know your thoughts on the Replica line from Maison Margiela. My three favorites are By the Fireplace, Jazz Club, and At the Barber's
Thanks Patrick! I’m not familiar with those.
Great vid John. Could you compare TF Tobacco Vanille vs. TF Neroli Portofino Eau de Perfume?
Thanks Robert! I’ll have to try that one!
I have 5: YSL-Y, Creed-Aventus, Dior-Sauvage, Chanel-Bleu, and MCM-Eau De Parfum
Good ones!
If you love Creed MI try Club de nuit Milestone. It’s a clone but lasts MUCH longer.
Also, I think you’d like Mancera Cedrat Boisee as another (cheaper) Niche substitute for Aventus.
Thank you!
Fragrances and watches are my two hobbies ... so I greatly enjoyed this video.
Thanks Karl!
me too ! i have around 250 frags, and almost 250 watches, also.
@@dzynguy I'm not that bad ... yet lol ... 60-80 fragrances 50 or so watches. Of course there are ALWAYS more 'to get' lists.
But as Jody always says there is always room for just one more watch 😉
Brother ! Great video I thought I was the only one with lots of fragrances, you are missing the typical CK, Hugo Boss marine (just purchased recommended, Gucci guilty, Azarro, Armani black Code ( must have), Carolina herrera 212 the brown and silver both, Express etc
Thanks for the suggestions Edwin!
Because of that prom0 you did years ago...Zaharoff Signature Pour Homme is absolutely my favorite fragrance.
Thanks for commenting Victor! I’m glad to hear you’ve been around that long! Thank you! Cheers!
Thanks for sharing. I still like Calvin Klein Eternity, but will consider one of your fragrances.
Anything from Calvin Klein is a classic 👌
I see you enjoy Montblanc Legend Spirit. If you really like that then I would recommend Rasasi Hawas, it’s very similar but lasts longer and has more complexity.
I think I sent you samples of the Creed fragrances in my collection. That might have been two years ago. Time flies. Green Irish Tweed is definitely bottle worth.
Yes! I totally remember! Thank you
You should try fragrances from Hugo Boss. Boss The Scent Private Accord and Boss Bottled Infinite are both great, and they have so many more that are worth checking out.
Aqua di Gio is my all-time favorite. Just blind bought Prada L’Homme and Issey Miyake. Looking very forward to getting these.
Great Video John - Try some Amouage Interlude for autumn / winter. I've got Eros on Today.
I have every one of the named fragrances that you have, plus a lot of others.
I've heard collecting fragrances can be addicting, and think I'm in the early stages.
@@plaubelmakina8916 Yes it can be
Parfums de marly (Layton & Percival)
Xerjoff (Naxos)
Give these a go 👌
Hi John 👋 Can you please recommend a non-alcoholic deodorant and perfume suitable for workplace and party?
Great video John! Some good choices there. Lately my go to has been 'Light Blue' by Dolce and Gabbana. Also Polo's 'Green' has a nice peppery aroma.
light blue is quite weak, get light blue intense, you'll be amazed how much better it is.
@@dzynguy Thanks I'll check it out!
I'd say buy Parfums Vintage Emperor Extrait for a 1:1 high quality Aventus clone. Check the entire PF Pineapple line.
I’m new to the channel and I love your video. I will check out the other videos.
Thank you!
Great video glad you posted keep them coming thanks
Legend. Great video John. Thanks!
How do you apply , spray on skin, clothing?
Skin.
I just got the Legend Spirit in the mail and it smells Amazing. Thanks for recommending.
You’re welcome!
If you are doing Tom Ford the obvious ones are: Neroli Portofino, Grey Vetiver, Tuscan Leather.
ombre leather ftw.
Great last 4 choices. Great collection, something similar to mine. But no citrus freshies??
First time watching your videos and I love it.
Thank you!
That's a great collection for every situation and time of year. Nice!
So many of my fragrance collection doesn't last long. I just sold YSL La Nuit De L'Homme as it just doesn't last at all. I love Mont Blanc, great fragrances, especially love Legend Night, very sexy for Date Night. It's a shame that Designer Fragrances in general don't last too long. I just take a small decant atomizer with me and re-apply.
Hey John, witch fragrance you own is your most Complimented one?
By the way CDNIM will replace your Aventus and lot cheaper in price, and is a power house for longevity.
Thanks Charlie! I mentioned in the video that legend spirit is probably my most complemented.
I'll like to know what time piece you have on in this video. It's amazing.
Legend. Funny your top 2 (4) I have two legend and Creed A but am going to try Tom ford for winter as I need one. Overall though legend has been my favorite for a long time time now and is hard to beat
10 seconds in I love your watch lol is it a unimatic?
It’s actually from a small company called about vintage.
thank. you for the gem@@40OverFashion
Thanks John.
I love how joyful this video is 😊
two scents you should try that is more for older men and smell like money is Creed Bois du Portugal and Creed Tabarome. If you can't find a sample just let me know. I can send samples of both.
Try the Eros EDP. Similar but more smooth and refined. Better for more mature guys. The Parfum too but it strays a little more from the EDT with a heavy ambroxan.
Pretty sure your going “nose-blind” with that Dylan Blue after a little while you can’t smell it but everyone around you can 👍🏻
I have 2 rare vintage Lancaster 125ml Cool Water that I got lucky and bought that I never wear I don't think I should because their vintage and hard to find I just wear the current formulation
Hi John,
Nice collection you got there. As a fragrance enthusiast I gotta a question dough. Do you really get only 3 to 5 hour wear with Versace Dylan Blue and Montblanc Explorer?? In general those are 7 to 9 hour scents for most people. Maybe it's a skin chemistry thing with you or you don't spray enough. I get at least 8 hours with those 2 with an average of 5 to 8 sprays. 2 on each side of the neck behind the ears and 2 at the back of the neck and a half spray below the earlobes.
Your story on TF Tabacco Vanille made me laugh.. In general TF TV is nuclear 😂. 1 to 2 sprays max is enough.
As for Versace Eros, if you really like it maybe sample the EDP or the Parfum version. Those have the same DNA as the EDT with a twist but they're more mature, more refined and balanced.
And there are a lot of alternatives for Creed Aventus for less money and better performance.
Keep up the good work John.👌🏼
Have a great weekend 🙏🏼
Thanks for the tip! I usually do three sprays. Both sides of the neck at pulse points and the back of the neck. Maybe with those I need to go a little heavier. I test by spraying the back of my left hand and keep checking it throughout the day. After a couple hours, those are both gone.
No trouble at all 😇. When you go a bit heavier and it doesn't give you the result you'd expect ( it will be Skin chemistry related) , there's always ISO E super together with ambroxan ( or separate) on top of the fragrance you're wearing. It should give a performance boost. ISO E super should boost the longevity and ambroxan the projection... 💪🏼
Much love from Maurice 👋
Wow...5 to 8 sprays average! I think people around me would fall over! I never do more than like 2 sprays (Dior Sauvage or Penhaligon's Opus 1870), and people still comment they can smell it and like it...
@@dmark2639
Fair comment!
With those you don't need to go that heavy off course. Those are beasts. Average strength fragrances I'd spray 5 to 8. But in my collection I got a few beast mode fragrances myself and I don't go heavy on the trigger. And I also keep in mind where I'm going, in what setting I mean. With the experience I have collected over the years I never got complaints. Oh wait, only 1 time.. I wore Azarro Wanted by Night in the car on a 90 minute trip 🤭🙈
And keep in mind that my skin chemistry is different than others.
When I first started buying fragrance I hadn't a clue and just bought Fahrenheit. I thought it was great, but most people don't like it and called it old man spice....😃
Then I went with Versacchi Eros and everyone told me it was for teenagers....🙄
I'm 42 and and very nervous about my next purchase.....😄
Dior Sauvage and Legend Spirit are very easy no-brainers.
Can't go wrong with Dior Sauvage, IMHO.
@@40OverFashion Thank you John Legend.
skip the sauvage exccept for elixir, it is age appropriate, and an absolute masterpiece not for the kiddies clubbing, like sauvage is. trust me, elixir went into my top 5 all-time, and i have 250 or so bottles in my collection. check out bottega veneta pour homme, bleu de chanel,tom ford ombre leather, terre d'hermes, gaultiers le male le parfum. all brilliant.
Don't listen to whoever told you that about Dior Fahrenheit. It is an absolute classic and better than most mentioned here.
I get constantly get stopped and asked what's that smell ( in a good way ) Paco Rabane Phantom in the silver robot bottle
Every collection needs Versace Man, and Dunhill Icon
Tom Ford Ombré Leather is very nice too. Thanks John
Can you combine fragrances? Normally I used one for all day and if I go out in the evening, use the same one.
I’ve heard that some people do, but I don’t know enough to know what I’m doing. I let the chemist handle all of that.
Always a good video. I have not worn cologne in decades and I'm seeing more things about men wearing cologne. Way back in the day I used to love Bill Blass it's so dated LOL I'm showing my age
Interesting assortment but will spare you my critique about them. LOL.Have heard a lot of good things about the Mont Blanc scent. I wear Terre d’Hermes and Derby by Guerlain. Both long lasting and compliment getters. Love Black Orchid by Tom Ford (which may be a women’s perfume but smells unisex to me.) I’m super picky and finding a long lasting scent as well is really difficult.
Black orchid is a very interesting one. Thank you for commenting!
Please try Niche houses of Roja Dove and Xerjoff....you will forget all about the designers
Hello sir..im from malaysia..i want know the diferent between Fake or Original perfume ? Can u tell me ..
My go to for the past 20 yrs or so has been the original John Paul Gaultier. I do wear the newer Gaultier fragrance Ultra Male which is not as nice as the original but still nice. Chanel Bleu for men is fantastic too!
If you like Ultra Male, I'd definitely get your nose on Le Male Le Parfum, which was released late 2020, and is by far the best in the line, for me.
@@marky147 already got it!
Thanks thought!
@@superultradangood man. Enjoy!
FYI, Try Sean John Unforgivable as it's VERY similar to Miliseme Imperial and yes it also doesn't last for shite. But you can find it for $24 at Ross for a 50ML bottle. Look for a few Ross's it's quite similar. Wearing it now.
Tom Ford Vetiver. I love it but, and opened the bottle regularly to breathe it in but hardly ever wore it. I sold it recently as it wasn't getting any use. Can't really explain why. I guess I really like it, just not on me.
A better version of Creed Millesime Imperial is Club de Nuit Milestone from Armaf. Smells pretty much the same with better performance IMO.
How do you store you colognes? Shelf? Caddy? In the bathroom or on a dresser?
Under sink cabinet
Collection is small now. I love Moustache EDP but it's a beast, the opening is powerful peppery and not my fav. But i LOVE the drydown. But i don't wear it as often because i'm unwilling to wait for literally 2 hours for the dry down and endure the peppery. I'd rather spray a fresh scent and endure a more pleasant opening. I now find myself smelling the atomizer of Moustache EVERY TIME i go to my dresser. But i wear something else.
