36y there, I tend to go for a 4 fragrances rotations, 2 for spring/summer, 2 for fall/winter. My picks : - DHS and Costa Azzura parfum (spring/summer) - Boss Bottled Elixir and Nuit d'Issey (fall/winter)
Designer house pricing is getting out of hand. Especially when you consider how strong the middle eastern clone game has become. Somethings gotta give.
Tomorrow. 15 bangers to bang with it. Saturday, 15 Fragrances you can wear when you break up. Sunday. 15 Frangrances when you can not get it up. Monday. 15 Fragances when you are ready to die. Tuesday. 15 Frangances to celebrate 15 years of your death. Just remember, keep over 300 fragances in your collection. You can never have anough
Ive been collecting for years, tried Dior homme 2020 when it released. Modern, simple but still multi-layered. Nothing like it out there. Has been my daily since, about to pick up my 4th 100ml.
Just heading out to Portugal for 12 nites, had a bottle of Polo 67 in my washbag. Then, at the duty free, blindly bought Dior Homme Sport. Initially, reminded me of TDH (which I wasn’t the biggest fan of). However, the dry down is something else, meant in a positive way. DHS is the first blind buy I’ve added to my collection. And I’m not disappointed.
I agree. But I love the OG L'homme so much they should just make a 2024 or 2025 release where it's the same as the OG but more longevity an projection an maybe add a few slight modern touches without changing it much cause the scent is near perfect, an yea I know about the intense version. To me they smell different an not as close as people say but they are very similar also. I enjoy both an sometimes wear both at the same time
Ended up selling homme 2020. Bought it for a fresh scent , and the opening nailed it, but it went almost ambery on the drydown and didnt match what I wanted it for. Sport worked better but not as great as the opening of 2020
DH2020 is the best of the Homme line by far. Iris gives the insta-headache and super cloying smell. DH Sport is also great, more fresh but just not as refined as DH2020.
I think you can wear anything any time of the year and just try them out and you’ll realise if they don’t feel right, for example i recently wore Gucci guilty elixir to work on a very hot summer day and i went easy with the sprays but i could smell it the whole shift very strongly and i felt very hot working was sweating a lot moving around etc and it was like working in a cloud of hot amber and sweat so i learnt that one i can’t get away with in the summer 😂 but for example Gucci by Gucci pour homme is dark but very light and that can work all year round in my opinion they don’t have to be freshies in spring and summer just like they don’t have to be darker ones in the autumn and winter
Try wearing fragrances based on it's heart and the season they bloom or are harvested ex. Chocolate is harvested in summer and winter Fig produce two crops a year, late spring to early summer, and the second, late summer to early fall. Coconut & Lemons, year round, winter lemons, November to March. Cherries June & July Juniper berries harvested year-round, best in fall. Lavender & plums, from late spring to early fall Plums, from late summer to early fall Oranges March to late December or January
On Ash’s recommendation I’ve bought many clones. 😂 I love Tom Ford Ombré Leather. Bought Afnan Rare Carbon and Maison Alhambra Amber & Leather for a combined $60 after taxes. Both are beasts with slightly different openings. I ran out of an old Creed Aventus I had and didn’t want to pay creed inflation prices so bought Club De Nuit Intense man along with the first OG Club De Nuit Man (Paco Rebonne 1million) and man they last super long. I’m choking people out! Which I like. 😂 Gent Scents is my go to for all Intel on fragrances. Thanks Ash for enlightening us. ❤
Mine would be Acqua Di Gio Profumo. I have 2 almost full 125ml bottles. When those eventually run out due to daily use I'd then move on over to Mancera Intense Cedrat Boise.
Dear , Thank you for your constant support and commitment to the garden of Mancera Parfums. As we grow we strive to continue providing rare and authentic raw materials in our fragrances and in doing so, we must allow ourselves to evolve with the times. With that being said, there will be a price adjustment on all 120ml of $10 USD and 60ml EDP bottles with an increase of $20 USD, and extraits by $65 USD. This implementation will begin on July 1st, 2024 for the official US distribution website and retail sales. We thank you for your support and hope you take advantage of the price point for the time being. Regards, Mancera Parfums
I remember when the original JPG le male came out I was 20 and I wore it a lot, I liked it, now I don't really touch it that much anymore but I do have the other ones like ultra male, elixir, le parfum, I have Le beau, Paradise garden, lover and on board, still a fan...👍💯
The chart you showed is called the dunning-kruger effect and it happens in any hobby/industry you can think of. You start off knowing very little and then as you get farther in you think you know it all but then as you learn more you realize how little you actually know lol
I want to spend the big bucks on a niche fragrance for someone whose favorite fragrance is Bleu de Chanel. What should I buy, that goes in the same realm of BDC and can be blind bought?
Gonna say it. Vintage is the #1 fragrance for over 40 man looking for a deal. I actually have been using that everyday for months and put some in my bathroom sprayer
Hey GentSents, I was wondering if you have any dupes you want to give out, If you do I would really appreciate and wear them. Thanks! (Awesome Beard! (Day 3))
So basically everything at sephora lol I still want that y2k/90's frags that still bang video my guy. Pretty please. I've been looking to the past because modern frags are stale.
These big name designers are putting one foot in the grave by pricing their products so high, especially when the clones are performing just as well...if not better.
Some 11-year-old boys DO wear designer fragrances. My nephew is 11 and recently bought himself Green Stravaganza and, yes, Le Male! He also has Eros and Legend Spirit. I'm so proud of him.

NR Bleu Noir line, a well-kept secret. He apparently isn’t aware of it. I’d prefer to keep it that way, stuff it, I prefer to smell different to the BDC/Sauvage/Y hordes 😂🥳

Facts .. you can get niche on discount websites cheaper than some of the designers
I was checking out my old orders from 10 to 15vyears ago. I bought 100ml designer bottles forclike 50 to 60 euro!!😊
Don't buy them.They will eventually end up at rack stores.Only buy if you really really have to have it.
Personally I feel it solidifies the case for buying niche, but yeah, there are some decent clones out there.
You can literally get niche for cheaper nowadays

i cant get it up because i was not wearing BDC EDP
K.... Edt and edp..... Or causal life... Both are great year around
The one i wouldn't mind wearing all year around is my signature one, La Nuit de L'homme
Ive been collecting for years, tried Dior homme 2020 when it released. Modern, simple but still multi-layered. Nothing like it out there. Has been my daily since, about to pick up my 4th 100ml.
I've always looked at eros flame as a warm weather frag. Reminds me of a summer Miami night.

Nice choices 👍 I also hope they keep the Prada L'homme line going. It's my most complimented scent at work
Great video, Ash! Entertaining as always.
Ash you should make a video on 10 fragrances that would be great for fathers day.
I would love a new Prada L'Homme!
I agree.

Prada Lhomme is my favorite designer fragrance as it got me started in this hobby
Bleu De Chanel EDP is probably the most versatile fragrance ever
And very expensive 😂
I own it too!
@@B7litz thats why you get dylan blue
Thats because u only know BDC.. there are better choices..
@@karel4845 I hate soapy fragrances

Oranges March to late December or January
It’s time for a Prada l’Homme parfum. Or elixir. Or both. Yes. Let’s have both.
Dior Homme Cologne is my everyday fragrance. I usually add a spray of Scentlabs Ambroxan, and it lasts all day long... very subtle and citrusy
the flame for flame never dies! 🔥
On Ash’s recommendation I’ve bought many clones. 😂

Eros is fire 🔥 😍, most complimented fragurance for me
Time to bust out the summer niches YAAA BOYYY
You make watching fragrance videos entertaining thanks man!
Still use Dior Sauvage EDT for every day, even in the winter ..
I'm a fan too. I own the EDP, Parfum and Elixir.

Bath and body works got mahogany wood cologne back in stock for $21

Can you do more niche fragrances? Seems a lot of reviewers are doing the same designer fragrances over and over again
Gent Scents mentions Borgore, Mord Fustang, and Com Truise, I didn't realize you had exquisite music taste.
There’s not a lot of us out there… but in the shadowed corners, we’re everywhere.
I remember when the original JPG le male came out I was 20 and I wore it a lot, I liked it, now I don't really touch it that much anymore but I do have the other ones like ultra male, elixir, le parfum, I have Le beau, Paradise garden, lover and on board, still a fan...👍💯
Prada L'Homme Parfum or Elixir, let's go!! 😂
Bond no.9 Lafayette St.
Haha, sounds like Ash has been watching these new “ultra niche” content creators with that impersonation. Spot on.
The chart you showed is called the dunning-kruger effect and it happens in any hobby/industry you can think of. You start off knowing very little and then as you get farther in you think you know it all but then as you learn more you realize how little you actually know lol
Acqua di gio, azzaro chrome legend, Calvin Klein defy EDT. 3 top all day everyday grab and go don’t think just spray. 😂

Vintage by John Varvatos works well for temps below 85F.
Ima try hollister wave 2 in the cold this winter... every time i go in the freezer at work, It just pops.
The voice at 4:38 sounds like Xerxes in the movie 300!!!! Crazy!!!!
Lol kinda yh
please do an Acqua Di Gio line i find it confusing but dont incl discontinued fragrances
Last video he did.
I got 8 of those 15
I'm surprised Cedrat Bois wasn't included.
dior homme sport you can wear every season not just for summer
For the less knowledgeable, me, what's the typical difference between a summer and winter application of the same fragrance?
Great choices by this community, and great video Ash! 🤘
Hey GentSents, I was wondering if you have any dupes you want to give out, If you do I would really appreciate and wear them. Thanks!
(Awesome Beard! (Day 3))
I wanna buy my first fragrance, i like the more elegant and versatile fragrances. Any tips?
Try them out, at stores or buy decants before buying a full bottle
My current favorite clone is Dumont Nitro red
6:02 I spit my water out laughing 😂.. Seriously keep being you, feels like I’m getting fragrance advice from a friend I’ve known since college..
Ysl myslf could also be on this list
Borgore too? THATS IT ASH!! We’re hanging out now!😂❤
could you wear pdm greenly in the fall/winter?
I want to see a Acqua di parma review
The Old Money Smell.
Chanel allure homme sport.
So basically everything at sephora lol I still want that y2k/90's frags that still bang video my guy. Pretty please. I've been looking to the past because modern frags are stale.
You should do a video on how to make your cologne last longer on skin. No cologne last more than 4 hours on me
Love the video Gents Scents stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way

Is Maxaroma legit? I’ve read a few complaints and they have an F rating with the BBB.
Great video Ash. When are you going to review Imagination by Louis Vuitton? Interested in knowing your thoughts about that one.
Great video!
Can you do a video on the fragrances that you wear the most
Got a nice dent in that Dylan blue!
Bleu de Chanel 🎉🎉
Love the random Borgore reference
Hey Ash, Why not ADG, Also I feel carbon is a very versatile fragrance.
Some 11-year-old boys DO wear designer fragrances. My nephew is 11 and recently bought himself Green Stravaganza and, yes, Le Male! He also has Eros and Legend Spirit. I'm so proud of him.
I'm 13 and have a nice little 10ish fragrance collection too
When is Chanel going to release something new?
I just need a fathers day fragrance
Me: niceee. Also me: let‘s have them all. 😂
Ralph's Club or it's clone Tharwah Silver
What’s the Eros Energy release date?
17 June 2024
Make a list of best sport/gym fragrances
How about yls ofreash
Better buy your Mancera frags before their price increase goes into effect 7/1/24 if you buy direct.
MIDDLE EASTERN PERFUME KICKING HARD NOW DAYS 😏
Bleu de channel parfum is no better in the summer than the winter
Hey have you guys got the word that Mancera Fragrances are getting a price jump add on as much as 65 dollars on some of the fragrances 👀
They can keep them then.
Haven't heard that, but my vintage bottle of cedrat boise would be worth an extra $65.. Not sure about anything else.
