      @@aadeshpatil488 In general, poor means 1-2hrs, moderate means 3-6hrs and good means 6-8hrs, as mentioned in the video, but it can vary from person to person based on skin chemistry.
      For example, I have chanel allure homme sport eau extreme and bleu de chanel edp, and bdc last far longer and smells way better on my skin where as ahs lasts forever on my friends skin and smells better on his(we both own our own bottles).
      So it's pretty hard to say really, it's just a tricky variable to work with when recommending fragrances online.

    I’ve bought quite a few cologne’s from ALT, I didn’t like all of them but it’s my own taste. They don’t claim to be a clone rather inspired by said fragrance. I don’t mind spending a couple hundred dollars on an outstanding fragrance but higher prices are not meant for new to wear. Just my take on it, this is the first time I see your content and enjoyed it very much, you appear truly knowledgeable and I can greatly appreciate that. Thank you very much, God Bless.

    I am very confused. Not only have I compared over 2 dozen ALT fragrences. I have also had other people do blind side by side comparisons. Over 90 % of Alt fragrences tested were 90 to 95% acurate. Sometimes even better. And no I am not affiliated with ALT in any way.

      Probably cuz the people smelling it are regular people like you and I and that's why we have no issues with it. And sometimes, cheaper fragrances might be even better than the pricy ones. I just can't wrap my head around buying something that's worth 300 dollars only to have something that cost like 30 dollars and I could never tell the difference. I feel like I got duped!

    Thanks for the video man! I actually recently got six of their colognes and was trying them. And I thought they were very hit or miss too, some were awful or just not good and some pretty okay. But also I'm used to not liking too many scents so I expected as much. 2 dimensional is also what I picked up on a lot of them, again cheaper cost. I will say, the Nicotianna I got was pretty good. Definitely little to no tobacco and didn't do too great at mimicking the original but it did smell like a fantastic ice cream parlor making fresh waffle cones. Which is nice, but not exactly what I'd like to smell like. I'd basically agree with everything you said in this video. Also Just Porto No.7 smells incredibly bad so I know Alt doesn't perfect everything they produce

    • @leemillion5161
      @leemillion5161  Месяц назад +3

      Kinda of how there's value in reviewing scents from an established house there's that same value in reviewing clones from well known clone houses. They'll have strength and weakness that might not reflect in every scent. If you were interested in alt fragrances I'd recommend Dossier. Their selection isn't as niche and they aren't as loud as alt fragrance but they're more faithful and enjoyable albeit with less nuance then it's counterpart with more natural smells, my favorite from them being ambery vetiver.
      Outside of that a lot of the main dupe companies are a bit more complicated to sort through as they have different lines targeting different price points so they might have a handful of dupes for the same scents with their own plus and minuses.
      I'm sure there might be a better answer but I haven't tried enough of each brand to give you a concrete answer although I've heard promising things about Alexandria fragrances.
      Hope this helps -Lee Million

      Given my lack of attraction to Adventus, I didn't think trying that dupe would add value to the video. But if you didn't like armafs, I could almost promise you alts wouldn't do it for you. It flattens most complex compositions and is definitely using cheaper ingredients than armafs

    I bought Agar gold No.2. By Alt. It was supposed to be inspired by Oud, but it was NOT! Or maybe they had a different kind of oud in mind when making this perfume. The smell sucks!!!! Also, there is no refund option!!!! You only get an in-store credit so basically you are stuck with them. Spend a little bit more money and get a Tom Ford or some other well known brand perfume don't waste your money here. I tried to post this comment on their site, they don't let it post it. That should tell you a lot about the company.

The design is really boring and plain-looking. You have to realize it cost them around $5 at best for a bottle, box, and perfume. Cheap low-quality perfume alcohol, cheap low-quality bottles, and cheap low-quality ingredients = Junk.
