I walked into the sauna and there was some guy there who smelled like he was wearing 12 sprays of Sauvage Elixir. I myself, wearing 14 sprays of Tobacco Vanille, sat across from him while maintaining direct eye contact. He let out a haughty groan, I leaned back, crossed my arms, our stares intensified and thus began the battle of dominance.
Ya I wouldn’t say never but he for sure is always at the positive side of all the colognes he has. And honestly that’s not really a bad thing, I love his chanel
Rotten rebel and Sarah Solomon are great reviewers, a combination of these reviewers as well as this channel have been a great helping me understand fragrances
I used to like rotten rebel and Sarah's reviews until I realized that they don't bring anything new to the table. Every review or count down list is made up of the same handful of fragrances, they only review big company stuff, and are never critical of anything. They are a bit cringe at times in my opinion. At this point, I need a mix of the big name stuff, but also the other houses that don't get much love on you tube. I think Omar and Justin Copeland do a good job a balancing the two.
Justin Copeland can be very tiresome. He is constantly having a conversation with the audience that I don't really think exists much with his audience, lecturing about compliments and basic bros. It would be fine if it was one video but not all the time. I've been subscribed to all of these content creators and I am no longer subscribed to any of them. None of them achieve what I am looking for in a fragrance creator. I enjoy those who just come make videos about fragrances they enjoy and want to have a conversation about it for example Scent land, Lanier Smith, and persolaise. Solid reviews from Robes08 , scents of South Jersey, Glam finds, and Joy Amin. Great creative work like George as the Fragrance apprentice is always appreciated. Oh and a fun Guy like Fatboy is great as well. All the Channels that are well pumping out lists and hyping new fragrances are boring and pretty much ruin the community for me. Take care anyone reads this and keep smelling great.
I've been an R.R. subscriber since he first started his channel. He's very interactive with his followers and his videos are entertaining. He's great! So are you Omar!
I unsubscribed because this guy said he wears 3-4 different fragrances a day. There is no way he can enjoy/test a fragrance doing this. Plus he loves EVERY fragrance
What I love about rotten rebel, the guy ALWAYS ALWAYS respond to my reaction to his videos... I appreciate and respect his thoughts and opinions... Of his 10-10 I only have the Tom Ford ombre leather... My #1 fragrance...
I’ve been watching Rotten Rebel for awhile now. I found him from watching Sandra Solomon. I love their videos together. Rotten Rebel has good takes and points when reviewing fragrances. I don’t agree with all of his 10/10 fragrances but none of them were bad scents. They’re all good solid fragrances. I have a couple on my collection.
I’ve had dior sauvage elxir for 3 months now and it’s the perfect versatile fragrance imo, great for heat, cold, work, dates, etc. 2x better than Bleu De Chanel and I have that aswell.
I used to watch Rebel a ton but he’s become a little too dramatic for me. I’ll take honesty over drama all day hence why I watch you and Aaron Terence Hughes mostly now. My 10/10 are Naxos, Hard Candy and interlude man
I think Interlude Man or Naxos can be a downright devastatingly sexy fragrance when worn by the right guy in the right outfit. It isn't a basic bro or gym douche type of fragrance whatsoever. It is a refined, exotic, and very expensive smelling incense, tobacco, or Oud based middle eastern style fragrance meant for a suave, jet set looking guy in a tailored Italian suit, Rolex, and Ferragamos driving a Lamborghini with the top down along the beach in Malibu at night. Likely a European male model or gigolo type. Other fragrances I find fit that same vibe would be Amouage Beach Hut Man and Reflection 45, Chanel Egoiste, YSL Opium Pour Homme, Tom Ford Tobacco Oud, Penhaligon's Sohan or my newest dreamy favorite at the moment on my husband the gorgeous Mancera Red Tobacco. Absolutely to die for. These are all high end designer or niche fragrances based around oriental notes of Incense, Oud, and tobacco. Polarizing for your basic man who likely refers to them as smelling like an old man or even like animal urine or feces, but that goes to show just how uncultured these types of guys are. They most likely are going to grab Sauvage or some other mainstream blue fragrance that smells like shower gel or the highschool locker room. BORING!!!! The same type of guys are drinking beer and whiskey while the sexy, suave ones are drinking Champagne cocktails and Sidecars made with the best French Cognac. Smelling a wiff of Interlude Man, Tobacco Oud, or Red Tobacco on the right guy with the right look is like dying and going to heaven for me. I wish more women would want that for themselves instead of the douchey gym bro reaking of Sauvage while getting drunk in a trashy local bar in any town USA covered in trashy tattoos and piercings and listening to the latest mumble rap while contemplating on how much money they are going to have to spend to get some random chick drunk enough to go home with them.
@@winnienguyen4420"Basic" bro fragrances like BDC EDP, Percival, Allure Homme Sport and Profondo are timeless and incredible fragrances. I never smell them on anyone because most men aren't wearing fragrance. I've had so many compliments with those.
It was super lame to shame him for smelling his fragrance for too long. It's his nose, he can smell how he wants. That kind of gatekeepy bullshit is shameful and extremely snobby. Stop doing that.
I can’t watch the “Top 10 Complimented” videos anymore. They are all the same. I don’t care about compliments, I wear what I want to smell. Justin Copeland and Sebastian (The Perfume Guy) are two of the channels that I absolutely love because they talk about fragrances that the other 200 fragrance channels don’t talk about. I appreciate the “compliment” grift but people that are really into fragrances don’t really care about that, usually.
Without a doubt if any up and comer deserves to have the spotlight shone on them it is Senthil fragrance. He’s literally raising the bar for what fragrance videos can be.
My 10/10 are: Azzaro The Most Wanted Mancera Sicily JPG Le Male Elixir Rasasi Hawas Juliette Has A Gun Pear Inc. Montale Intense Cafe Kajal Almaz Bond No. 9 Greenwich Village Dior Homme Eau Gisada Ambassador

Thank you for being the only fragrance reviewer who calls it exactly like it is when it comes to Dior Sauvage Elixir. Can understand why people enjoy it very much, but it is way too intense, I can barely put on one spray without choking out everyone within 10 feet. Aside from that it is fantastic.
The problem is that liquorice note. It's sickeningly sweet and ruins the whole fragrance for me. Elixir is basically a sweetened up version of Drakkar Noir and Drakkar smells fine the way it is. Adding BR540 style cotton candy sweetness to that fragrance profile just doesn't work. Ends up being a cloying mess with anything more than one spray and god forbid someone wear it out in the heat. I would gag.
@@winnienguyen4420 I liked the scent enough but yes, the liquorice was just too strong. I now have Lattafa Asad and really love it…so much more wearable and less intense
Sauvage Elixir smells like a cross between Drakkar Noir and BR540 or possibly even Initio Oud for Greatness. The latter two in my opinion being a bit too sweet and cotton candy like on a man.Drakkar Noir is in my opinion actually an attractive Scent for a man despite it's age. It's still appealing to this day. BR540 on the other hand is gorgeous on a woman, but on a man is far too sweet and just a turn off at least to me. Oud for Greatness is actually pretty good on a guy if applied very very lightly. But it's typically over applied and takes on that same cotton candy sweetness as BR540, likely from the heavy saffron note. I guess I'm old fashioned but ive just never liked sweet fragrances on a guy. One Million and JPG Ultra Male for example are actually fragrances that i own and wear but forbid my husband to. Aventus, Hacivat, Cedrat Boise are my typical favorite male scents. I also love Armaf CDNIM and the rest of the high quality Aventus or Hacivat clones on a man. More devisive and polarizing middle eastern style fragrances like Chanel Egoiste, Tom Ford Tobacco Oud, Mancera Red Tobacco, or even the dreaded Amouage Interlude Man can actually be ridiculously attractive and a huge turn on on an handsome, refined, cultured type of gentleman in a tailored Italian suit, sporting a Rolex, and driving a Lamborghini down the beach at night on their way to take their date out to an uber romantic and insanely expensive restaurant in Malibu. In that scenario those typically polarizing middle eastern fragrances that most basic bros or gym douches would say smell like an old man or like animal poop or whatever other nonsense terms they use are actually even sexier than your typical mainstream lady killer ( or what the bros assume are lady killer) type fragrances like Sauvage, Bleu de Chanel, YSL Y EDP, or Versace Dylan Blue. Mainly because they smell exotic, expensive, and mysterious as opposed to shower gel or highschool locker rooms like the others. In a nutshell a woman isn't going to remember you when you smell like every other basic dude from 18-30, but when you think outside the box and experiment with something more intriguing, more expensive, better quality and very uncommon if not downright unknown to most people your age while also of course looking and acting the part of a suave, jet set, male model or something else interesting then the lady will likely remember you for the rest of her life. Don't believe me? Just try it for yourself and see how much more attractive you will be to women and also those women you attract will be the classy types, not your basic plain or downright trashy looking girls with tacky rainbow colored hair, peircings all over their face and tattoos from head to tow. Think Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly not Cardi B or Billy Eilish.
I love his videos. Great production value and he is a very good presenter. He always states his opinions as opinions. I think he deserves 10x the subscribers he has. I also appreciate him interacting with his subscribers. Not all current fragrance RUclipsrs do that… Some fragrance RUclipsrs don’t interact at all, some leave a ♥️ after a comment, Some do a ♥️ and a personal comment. RR does that. :)
Savauge Elixir is the most overhyped fragrance i have ever smelled. I had it for a few weeks and its not i scent i was into. I actually almost came to hate it. Sold it right away and never regretted it
Yeah it smells like Drakkar Noir but with a bunch of sweet notes added to it like liquorice, cinnamon, and some other Christmas time type spices I can't remember off the top of my head. But in my opinion Drakkar Noir smells fine as is, not with added sweetness. Elixir ends up smelling almost like an Indian curry of some type and while that smell is appealing for eating it certainly isn't sexy or romantic in any sense. Not to mention elixir is possibly the most powerful fragrance on the market save for maybe a few middle eastern style Oud tobacco, or incense based Oriental fragrances from Amouage like Interlude Man 45 or Reflection 45, TF Tobacco Vanille or Tobacco Oud, Mancera Red Tobacco, and Initio's atomic bomb of a fragrance Oud for Greatness. Any one of which I actually find more tolerable than Elixir by a long shot. Those fragrances will last months in your closet after just a couple of sprays on a jacket. Honestly just wear Drakkar Noir layered with some regular Sauvage EDT, EDP, or Parfum if you want a more pleasant smelling and non sickly sweet version of Dior Sauvage Elixir that will be far more mass appealing. Or go for Spice bomb extreme which basically has a similar vibe to Elixir with all the Christmas spices and what not, only it actually smells divine and not overly sweet whatsoever. That fragrance is the epitome of a spicy fragrance done right, mainly because the gorgeous tobacco note is the anchor as opposed to liquorice like Elixir. But then again I've never found any fragrance with a heavy liquorice note in it attractive.
Recently brought Ombré leather. The Best Buy so far. Spring is round the corner and I am already in love with notes. Perfect blend of little and leather
@@James-xm3ex I'm happy to have it but it's definitely a special occasion type scent for me so I've maybe worn it 3 times this year, it's phenomenal though
@@dqyler Yea seems to be a special one. And Le male le parfum I know is exquisite, probably my most worn fragrance on a night out and most complimented too. People tell me I smell delicious when I wear it and I don't get that much with my others
Friend....is the Armani Code redundant in your collection because you have the Le Male and Prada Black? I was thinking about getting the Le Male but I have the Code and Prada Black also are they all a bit too similar in your opinion?
@@aaron4387 I would say no, not redundant. Yes there are similarities and you could use all 3 for the same function but they are all unique and have their own personality. Le male le Parfum is so so good and I would absolutely recommend it, over the elixir too
@@vodkapopsMega same, im tired of telling people this and getting the response "you just hate it because it's popular", no i hate it because it smells bad to me, i get headaches smelling it
10/10 for me in no particular order… ATH Onyx Zaharoff Signature Rosé Terre D’Hermes edt Xerjoff Starlight Diptyque Eau Capitale edp Initio Side Effect Marc Antoine Barrois Ganymede Rogue Mousse illuminee Gallagher Fineapple Amouage Beach Hut Man 🤙🤙🤙
Just got the Allure Homme sport eau extreme 2 weeks ago after trying like 10 other fragrances inna douglas, the prada l'homme and the allure homme sport were my favorites of all i tried immediately bought it. The only thing is the durability, for me its like 4, 5 hours, 6 hours maybe if i overspray. The prada l'homme and the armani SWY absolutely are on the way to me rn 🙏 pasha de cartier was also insanely good i think it was the darker version the parfum..
You said Ombre Leather is a 9/10 and gave your reason why, but what's your example of a 10/10 leather fragrance? I'm curious because I have Ombre Leather as a 10/10 fragrance just like RR - so I wanna know what would outdo it. Also, I'm a fan and already subbed to RR - I also enjoy his style and believe he is underrated as well. It seems we all tend to agree on the same things especially going for EDP versions on most of the lines. Le Male Le Parfum is also a 10/10 for me as well
I personally think "Rotten" is often a bit over the top (hamming it up; I dislike his "yum" pauses). I prefer your level-headed approach to Frag critiques, overall.
Club de nuit limited edition: Heavily musky, woody the start smells horrible (sufficating smell) then it smells like intense musky woody tiny bit of fruit scent.. apply it 30 minutes before leaving or else you will sufficate everyone
Yeah i don't get it too It's nice but not a ten on my current collection... I've got Parfum de Marly Herod that's a 10, Chanel Allure Edition blanche 10, Yves saint Laurent la nuit de L'homme 10 and Guerlain-L'Homme Ideal edp definitely 10
I really cannot stand Dior Homme Intense... it's way too feminine for me. I think it smells ok, but I cant shake the feminine part of it, that it has nothing masculine about it. Valentino Uomo Intense is something I can jive with real easy, and I do not put them in the same category at all. Uomo Intense has a more masculine smell to it in my opinion. Dior Homme Parfum on the other hand... 10 out of 10... hands down. That is perfection in my book. The list is pretty solid, but I'd put Givenchy Gentlemen Reserve Privee on that list, total banger.
I love Sauvage Elixir, it is the most I have spent on a fragrance but I figured it is so strong that I will wear less and the bottle will last me years. But you are right on the headache from it if it is over done.
I personally find his reviews to be cringey hyperbole. Also he literally says every complete sentence with an icky annoying crescendo and decrescendo. His delivery style sounds more like pitch than an honest review. However I will give him credit for having great taste in fragrances. Still a pass for me.
Uff que pesado este señor que cree que tiene autoridad para opinar sobre las ideas de otros reviewers y usar su contenido. Me parece de muy mal gusto, ya que lo hace muy a menudo. Por esa razón, ya no lo sigo.
I agree it has a rough opening but once you get past that it's a pretty damn sexy fragrance on the right guy and fat more appealing than Elixir by far. Red Tobacco to me is like a more mass appealing version of TF Tobacco Oud which I also actually liked on the right man dressed for the occasion. On the other hand Elixir's liquorice note makes me nauseous. It's just a sweetened up Drakkar Noir and Drakkar Noir was not meant to be sweet in the first place. You are better off just layering a basic Sauvage EDT EDP or Parfum with some Drakkar Noir and will get a non sweet version of elixir that doesn't turn the stomach. I blame the decision to make Elixir overly sweet on the popularity of BR540 which honestly isn't attractive on a man at all to me, but on a woman it's heavenly.
Montabaco line is absolutely stunning gorgeous and timeless. @rottenrebel has fantastic taste and a bit of something for everyone. And in regards to Ormond Jayne Montabaco it's a masterpiece no way to disagree and every flanker is amazing Im on the hunt for Cuba been dying to find it
Is Percival worth the price as a year round versatile scent since Montblanc Legend EDP and EDT exist ? i had Mont blanc Legend EDP i really love the scent but it does not last on my skin (4-5hours with a 2022 batch) and im thinking of upgrading to Percival or Gentle Fluidity Silver (not the same type of scent but same function / year round versatile scent)
Rotten rebel has a genuine personality. I love his channel. He has a great taste in fragrances. I recommend everybody to check him out. sometimes the way he describes a certain fragrance it makes me laugh
Hi Bro... I would like to hear about Gisada uomo... No proper review found on the internet except curly's. Ordered both ambassador for men and uomo.. Could you please comment on uomo. Don't wanna waste money if it doesn't perform.
I think vloggers should stop "reaction" videos wether it's positive or negative and just do their own thing. Fragrances and scents are after all very subjective. Reaction videos is just lazy content creating in my opinion and usually used to either piggy back on other people's ideas (usually a competitor) and/or to criticize them either subtly or directly.
I swear my friend got sauvage elixir and I put an it on my arm. It was so so strong. That I started to feel sick to my stomach. Headache, and I wanted to wash it off. I started asking myself if it’s that’s front and intense WHY would I want to use it lol. What occasion? And showering won’t take it out completely
Over-spraying is imo very subjective. If you are in a place where your environment is awash with scents say a bazaar, wearing a few sprays means your 1-2 sprays are drown out.
Killian's Angle Share is top of my wishlist. I run a whiskey bar (and similar first name I guess) So I'll celebrate a milestone with that fragrance at some point in the near future.
I walked into the sauna and there was some guy there who smelled like he was wearing 12 sprays of Sauvage Elixir. I myself, wearing 14 sprays of Tobacco Vanille, sat across from him while maintaining direct eye contact.

Pathetic do 50 plus next time could not even match my 30 sprays of red tobacco try again lil bro
14 sprays if Tobacco Vanille 😭😭😭😭
The comment above yours is the guy who had 12 spray of sauvage 😂😂😂😂
then you guys kissed intensively?
I wear 12 sprays of Sauvage Elixir before heading into the sauna
U better call 911 before getting in.🎉
…..I… I’m legit intrigued by this, and now have to experience it for myself.
10-13 sprays of secretions magnifique will grab you lots of attention in the sauna area too 👍 sauvage elixer is a solid choice
@@hudaif9687lol
Does that even last 4h? You should double the amount of sprays
Only complaint about his channel is that he NEVER has criticism for any fragrance, he literally likes everything.
Sandra takes him down a peg or two when he gets too excited 😂
Ya I wouldn’t say never but he for sure is always at the positive side of all the colognes he has. And honestly that’s not really a bad thing, I love his chanel
He only says what he likes which makes sense, why pay attention to the negatives
Bro is selling fragrances. Of course he wont complain
He hates Joop lol
Yeah he’s fantastic. I usually hate shorts but he’s quick and to the point.
The “How to spray” shorts are the only ones he does that I do not like. Just over spraying himself on camera 🤣
I can't stand Rotten Rebel. I find him to be overly dramatic. He comes across as a used car salesman.
Agreed, doesn’t give any critiques, just gives it some dumb nickname and says its scent profile then on to the next

In a nutshell a woman isn't going to remember you when you smell like every other basic dude from 18-30, but when you think outside the box and experiment with something more intriguing, more expensive, better quality and very uncommon if not downright unknown to most people your age while also of course looking and acting the part of a suave, jet set, male model or something else interesting then the lady will likely remember you for the rest of her life. Don't believe me? Just try it for yourself and see how much more attractive you will be to women and also those women you attract will be the classy types, not your basic plain or downright trashy looking girls with tacky rainbow colored hair, peircings all over their face and tattoos from head to tow. Think Audrey Hepburn or Grace Kelly not Cardi B or Billy Eilish.
Huh?
Excellent
My 10/10 is V&R - Spicebomb Extreme
Rotten rebel the CEO of “Mmmm”
I love his videos. Great production value and he is a very good presenter. He always states his opinions as opinions.
I think he deserves 10x the subscribers he has.
I also appreciate him interacting with his subscribers. Not all current fragrance RUclipsrs do that…
Some fragrance RUclipsrs don’t interact at all, some leave a ♥️ after a comment,
Some do a ♥️ and a personal comment. RR does that.
:)
Terre d hermes , Bois imperial , guerlain l Homme edp / extreme are 10/10 in my opinion
Bois Imperial is the BOMB but I dont get to wear it much because it's pretty beastly.
Savauge Elixir is the most overhyped fragrance i have ever smelled. I had it for a few weeks and its not i scent i was into. I actually almost came to hate it. Sold it right away and never regretted it
Yeah it smells like Drakkar Noir but with a bunch of sweet notes added to it like liquorice, cinnamon, and some other Christmas time type spices I can't remember off the top of my head. But in my opinion Drakkar Noir smells fine as is, not with added sweetness. Elixir ends up smelling almost like an Indian curry of some type and while that smell is appealing for eating it certainly isn't sexy or romantic in any sense. Not to mention elixir is possibly the most powerful fragrance on the market save for maybe a few middle eastern style Oud tobacco, or incense based Oriental fragrances from Amouage like Interlude Man 45 or Reflection 45, TF Tobacco Vanille or Tobacco Oud, Mancera Red Tobacco, and Initio's atomic bomb of a fragrance Oud for Greatness. Any one of which I actually find more tolerable than Elixir by a long shot. Those fragrances will last months in your closet after just a couple of sprays on a jacket. Honestly just wear Drakkar Noir layered with some regular Sauvage EDT, EDP, or Parfum if you want a more pleasant smelling and non sickly sweet version of Dior Sauvage Elixir that will be far more mass appealing. Or go for Spice bomb extreme which basically has a similar vibe to Elixir with all the Christmas spices and what not, only it actually smells divine and not overly sweet whatsoever. That fragrance is the epitome of a spicy fragrance done right, mainly because the gorgeous tobacco note is the anchor as opposed to liquorice like Elixir. But then again I've never found any fragrance with a heavy liquorice note in it attractive.
Recently brought Ombré leather. The Best Buy so far. Spring is round the corner and I am already in love with notes. Perfect blend of little and leather
From my collection
1. Le Male le Parfum
2. Amouage Reflection 45
3. Prada Luna Rossa Black
4. Chanel Allure eau extreme
5. Armani Code EDP
Reflection 45😭 I wanna sample it so bad but I’m afraid I’ll like it too much. Not sure I wanna allow myself to justify buying a whole bottle
@@James-xm3ex I'm happy to have it but it's definitely a special occasion type scent for me so I've maybe worn it 3 times this year, it's phenomenal though
@@dqyler Yea seems to be a special one. And Le male le parfum I know is exquisite, probably my most worn fragrance on a night out and most complimented too. People tell me I smell delicious when I wear it and I don't get that much with my others
Friend....is the Armani Code redundant in your collection because you have the Le Male and Prada Black? I was thinking about getting the Le Male but I have the Code and Prada Black also are they all a bit too similar in your opinion?
@@aaron4387 I would say no, not redundant. Yes there are similarities and you could use all 3 for the same function but they are all unique and have their own personality. Le male le Parfum is so so good and I would absolutely recommend it, over the elixir too
Savage elixir...absolutely disgusting!!!
I’ll probably wear that when I’m 83, but not before 😂 Can’t stand any of the sauvages though, they all smell vile to me, I don’t get the appeal at all
@@vodkapopsMega same, im tired of telling people this and getting the response "you just hate it because it's popular", no i hate it because it smells bad to me, i get headaches smelling it
@@vodkapops The only flanker I really like is Very cool spray. I guess it's discontinued though.
10/10 for me in no particular order…

Just got the Allure Homme sport eau extreme 2 weeks ago after trying like 10 other fragrances inna douglas, the prada l'homme and the allure homme sport were my favorites of all i tried immediately bought it. The only thing is the durability, for me its like 4, 5 hours, 6 hours maybe if i overspray. The prada l'homme and the armani SWY absolutely are on the way to me rn 🙏 pasha de cartier was also insanely good i think it was the darker version the parfum..
Nishane Ani 10/10 for me!
Rotten Rebel always have the vibe in fragrance reviews... One of my goto favorites!
You said Ombre Leather is a 9/10 and gave your reason why, but what's your example of a 10/10 leather fragrance? I'm curious because I have Ombre Leather as a 10/10 fragrance just like RR - so I wanna know what would outdo it. Also, I'm a fan and already subbed to RR - I also enjoy his style and believe he is underrated as well. It seems we all tend to agree on the same things especially going for EDP versions on most of the lines. Le Male Le Parfum is also a 10/10 for me as well
Dior Homme Parfum or Prada L’Homme Intense come to mind currently
I personally think "Rotten" is often a bit over the top (hamming it up; I dislike his "yum" pauses). I prefer your level-headed approach to Frag critiques, overall.
Rotten Rebel is a great reviewer and person...I love when he duo with the gorgeous Tigress Miss Solomon
Club de nuit limited edition: Heavily musky, woody the start smells horrible (sufficating smell) then it smells like intense musky woody tiny bit of fruit scent.. apply it 30 minutes before leaving or else you will sufficate everyone
Tom Ford Ombré Leather Parfum for me is a 10/10. Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le Parfum is really good, but not quite a 10. I am wearing it now.
Yeah i don't get it too
It's nice but not a ten on my current collection...
I've got Parfum de Marly Herod that's a 10, Chanel Allure Edition blanche 10, Yves saint Laurent la nuit de L'homme 10 and Guerlain-L'Homme Ideal edp definitely 10
Love Sauvage Elixir and CDNIP LE. Both year round use for me, but only 4 sprays!
Meh, Suavage Elixir ain't that unique. It like Drakkar mixed with Spicebomb. I still love it tho but not unique.
Sauvage elixir is headache inducing to me , I think it’s too brash.
Lavender dangerous flower 😂😂😂
I really cannot stand Dior Homme Intense... it's way too feminine for me. I think it smells ok, but I cant shake the feminine part of it, that it has nothing masculine about it. Valentino Uomo Intense is something I can jive with real easy, and I do not put them in the same category at all. Uomo Intense has a more masculine smell to it in my opinion.
Dior Homme Parfum on the other hand... 10 out of 10... hands down. That is perfection in my book.
The list is pretty solid, but I'd put Givenchy Gentlemen Reserve Privee on that list, total banger.
Dior homme intense smell like lipstick
Club De Nuit is overrated imho, smells overly synthetic and not in a good way. It is beast mode for sure but for what..
I love Sauvage Elixir, it is the most I have spent on a fragrance but I figured it is so strong that I will wear less and the bottle will last me years. But you are right on the headache from it if it is over done.
Yeah, not a big fan of sauvage elixir. It is headache inducing. Smells like grandpa feasting on a ton of Liquorice.
I personally find his reviews to be cringey hyperbole. Also he literally says every complete sentence with an icky annoying crescendo and decrescendo. His delivery style sounds more like pitch than an honest review. However I will give him credit for having great taste in fragrances. Still a pass for me.
Try layering DHI and Valentino. Thank me later 😅
Thanks
Uff que pesado este señor que cree que tiene autoridad para opinar sobre las ideas de otros reviewers y usar su contenido. Me parece de muy mal gusto, ya que lo hace muy a menudo. Por esa razón, ya no lo sigo.
Can’t stand powdery..love TF Ombre Leather Parfum
Pretty much watch you, Rotten Rebel, and Gentscents. Great content, thanks
Guerlain L'homme Ideal Extreme is a perfect 10
I can't tolerate this guy. I'm interested in fragrances, not fragins.
My 10/10 is mancera red tobacco. Smooth long lasting tobacco scent. Got compliments wearing it at work.
I agree it has a rough opening but once you get past that it's a pretty damn sexy fragrance on the right guy and fat more appealing than Elixir by far. Red Tobacco to me is like a more mass appealing version of TF Tobacco Oud which I also actually liked on the right man dressed for the occasion. On the other hand Elixir's liquorice note makes me nauseous. It's just a sweetened up Drakkar Noir and Drakkar Noir was not meant to be sweet in the first place. You are better off just layering a basic Sauvage EDT EDP or Parfum with some Drakkar Noir and will get a non sweet version of elixir that doesn't turn the stomach. I blame the decision to make Elixir overly sweet on the popularity of BR540 which honestly isn't attractive on a man at all to me, but on a woman it's heavenly.
Montabaco line is absolutely stunning gorgeous and timeless. @rottenrebel has fantastic taste and a bit of something for everyone. And in regards to Ormond Jayne Montabaco it's a masterpiece no way to disagree and every flanker is amazing Im on the hunt for Cuba been dying to find it
Is La Male la Parfum an EDP? or is that another version / flanker?
You better do this with Justin Copeland aswell!
I can't watch him, his long winded inhaling of each fragrance give me the ick.
Is Percival worth the price as a year round versatile scent since Montblanc Legend EDP and EDT exist ? i had Mont blanc Legend EDP i really love the scent but it does not last on my skin (4-5hours with a 2022 batch) and im thinking of upgrading to Percival or Gentle Fluidity Silver (not the same type of scent but same function / year round versatile scent)
I love Percival. I keep less than 10 fragrances only and it is one of them. The dry down is incredible.
@@travisn346 👍
Rotten rebel has a genuine personality. I love his channel. He has a great taste in fragrances. I recommend everybody to check him out. sometimes the way he describes a certain fragrance it makes me laugh
Sauvage Elixir is a Classic 10
Very informative with description.
I like that
I love your straight forward videos. Great Info!!!!!
Agreed he is underrated in some regards but the name he chose is well.. rotten.
I would replace allure homme extreme with edition blanche
if ur going from a designer to club de nuit limited edition don't it is good but... its soo sufficating its soo strong
I pretty much agree with the list but would take Dior Homme Parfum over DHI and would add Aventus, GIT and Bleu de Chanel Parfum.
I love Rotten Rebels and Sandra Soloman ❤ 2 of the best perfume channels. Especially love them together.
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
Rotten Rebel is more pleasing and easy to watch than you
Dior Homme Parfum (2014) is my perfect 10. Many compliments.
I really like Rotten Rebel. I value his opinion.❤️
The glass causing the auto focus problem
Hi Bro... I would like to hear about Gisada uomo... No proper review found on the internet except curly's. Ordered both ambassador for men and uomo.. Could you please comment on uomo. Don't wanna waste money if it doesn't perform.
What places are good to get colognes/perfume?
1. Macy's
2. fragrance stores in the mall
3. Others? without scams...
I tried DHI and Valentino. Didn't like DHI too much make-up type for me but Valentino I loved it
But it’s all designers they react too. Sponsors
If anyone in the US wants a better non synthetic OFG. I have full bottle of WIDIAN 71 extreme for sale
I think vloggers should stop "reaction" videos wether it's positive or negative and just do their own thing. Fragrances and scents are after all very subjective. Reaction videos is just lazy content creating in my opinion and usually used to either piggy back on other people's ideas (usually a competitor) and/or to criticize them either subtly or directly.
Montobaco Intensivo might be the best smelling fragrance ever! What a crazy composition. Sadly the performance is so bad
I think Uomo Intense is a softer, more mass pleasing version of Homme Intense. But Homme Intense is classier and superior.
What in your opinion is the primary difference between Valentino UNMO intense verse Valentino UNMO INTENSE BORN IN ROMA?
Sauvage elixir ridiculous expensive
Mancera red tobacco, at first, its very dangerous, which I love, but the dry down sweet chocolate....19 hour power
Layton, Cedrat Boise, Moustache edp, Light Blue Italian Love, Desir Toxic - 10/10s
I swear my friend got sauvage elixir and I put an it on my arm. It was so so strong. That I started to feel sick to my stomach. Headache, and I wanted to wash it off. I started asking myself if it’s that’s front and intense WHY would I want to use it lol. What occasion? And showering won’t take it out completely
Over-spraying is imo very subjective. If you are in a place where your environment is awash with scents say a bazaar, wearing a few sprays means your 1-2 sprays are drown out.
Oh and if it were a sexy category… •Thomas De Monaco- Raw Gold
•Enigmapour Homme
Killian's Angle Share is top of my wishlist. I run a whiskey bar (and similar first name I guess) So I'll celebrate a milestone with that fragrance at some point in the near future.
