Great video Ross, Thank you for including our fragrances in the mix. Some great fragrances up there, I own and really enjoy a few of the houses & fragrances on your list as well. Have a great day!
Man...I'll tell you what...Parfums Vintage "Pineapple Vintage Intense" is hands down the most hyper-realistic pineapple I've ever smelled. It's just so addictive. I actually enjoy it better than Aventus. One that really surprised me.
My favorite clone is Dua's Casino Royale Nights. Beastmode longevity (days on clothes about 14hrs on skin,) projection, sillage. Smells about 90-95% like BR 540 Extrait.
Have u tried it recently? Duas gone very far down hill recently and don't perform like they used to my old style dua tux is magical and has above average performance my 100ml smells pretty much the same but it doesn't last at all
@@anthonytumadre61 I own 3 Dua's. all about 3 years old. All of them perform great (longevity, projection. Sillage). Haven't purchased any recently, I rarely blind buy so I won't be disappointed with my purchase. I try to find someone on ebay that decants before I buy full bottle. I'll keep your comment in mind though.
I wear Alexandria Zion a lot. I go nose blind to it and think it has worn off but I get compliments all day long with it. I can’t even smell it anymore and still get asked what I’m wearing
Scentual Obsession is my favorite clone house!! And I knew you were going to pull out Andy Warhol 🔥 King of Kings is a gem also!! And if you haven’t tried one of his originals yet, I would recommend Midnight Seduction, that stuff is so good! One time I layered it with king of kings and got a bunch of compliments! Great video
Love this one Ross! Also really dig how you touched on other great ones from each house. You’re putting a lot of people on right now and I’m one of em haha! Have a good week!
I love Alexandria Fragrances; although, my favorites from them are their originals. I wear Hafez Exclusive regularly. It goes well with Sphinx Beard’s Sphinx Signature beard butter.
Great review! Really appreciate the info on best clones from the different houses. I look for clones as an affordable way to experience expensive niche fragrances or those that are discontinued. Most interested in getting Andy Warhol, 3n1 DHP and maybe Making Scents Tycoon. Thanks again
While I do buy strictly originals and almost all of them from official resellers, there is just 1 thing I don't get about people buying some clones - why would you buy a clone for something that is cheap? Especially if the original scent is available at discounters for like 60-70$. Maybe that's just me. Besides that an interesting video, diverse selection of scents. As for the scents I was expecting to see, based on your past videos I was expecting Ormonde Jayne's 'Xandria'.
Dua's Purple Sapphire is my 'most' complimented so far this year (Spring/Fall).. It's a clone of 'Boadicea Violet Sapphire'. Also, Alexandria's clone of Bvlgari Tigre is an enjoyable one, called 'Black Panther'.. They also have a 'great' clone of Kilian Black Phantom, called 'Dark Knight' which is even more accurate than Black Widow (My opinion anyway/have both).. But I'm hearing that Genre's version 'Noble Soul' is superior. I'll snatch one up in about a week or 2, when the window opens up to purchase Lol .. Alwayz' solid vibez witchu', homie💪🏾 May your passion continue to be your joy & blossom into your success🙏🏾🙏🏻
Alexandria & Scentual Obsessions are my 2 favorite clone houses and the ones I have the most fragrances from. Dua has some good ones too. Never had the pleasure of smelling the original Creed Green Valley but their clone of it is great as is their clone of Aventus Cologne which for me outperforms the original by far.
Bro ur pc fan is loud af, if u could just turn off the pc or mask the fan's noise with some background music for example. Now that is out of the way. Great selections and great video. ❤
My favorite Dua has got to be Royal Chariot Attar their Layton clone. Alexandria...Danger Zone. I bought that one on your recommendation. Dior Sauvage Elixir... Dapper Fragrances. Strike Gold Shave I'd say ATF. And I think I'm fixing to order Andy Warhol right now from Sensual Obsessions
@@Jeremy_Scents79 I'll take your word for it because I've never got my nose on the original. I was surprised by the blast of mint in it, but it's not overwhelming.
Back when I started collecting the only clone houses everyone talked about, in the US, were Alexandria and DUA. Love both, been extremely happy with both, and because of my great experiences with them will always try them first when looking for a clone. Typically can't tell much, if any, difference between their clones and the originals. Many times I've even preferred the clone because they have a higher concentration of perfume.
Have you tried the Dua version of Dior Homme Parfum? Just curious how it compares to the 3N1. Or if I need to snag up the 3N1 as well. I love the Dua version, but I’ve never smelled the OG.
I'm a huge fan of MFK Baccarat rouge 540 edp and the extrait, buuuut.... parfumes vintage sunset in heaven is absolutely a phenomenal clone. The quality is on par with MFK, longevity it close. Its just Slightly not as sweet and has a mild orange top note but 96%-98% the same as BR540. The biggest difference Is, I dont seem to go as nose blind to the parfumes vintage sunset in heaven for some reason. And having all 3 in my stash, I actually reach for sunset in heaven the most with the extrait coming in a close second. Best clone I have ever smelled hands down. I think its actually an improvement upon the original. It's not cheap but it's definitely cheaper than the original and one of the best clones I have ever smelled.
Good concept, man! There are so many ways to smell good, and you don't need to bankrupt yourself in obtaining great scents from high-priced niche and designer fragrance house. I personally like Scentual Obsessions (that Andy Warhol is STILL outstanding) and, more professionally, Armaf, but I also have Blue Sapphire, too. I started a year into my fragrance journey with Alexandria and loved their stuff, but the quality of my bottles degraded after about 1.5 to 2 years for most of my fragrances (and I stored them in my dresser drawer) and the scents weren't the same, so maybe it has to do with the quality of oil and the creation process that they use. But I don't regret the memories I've had with them by far. Over time, I've started to sort of understand why there is a bit of a stigma around clones because of the quality differences at times, but honestly, you have to work with what you can get access to, and not everyone can afford a Roja or an Electimuss. I'm just glad I was able to get a better picture of fragrance through these houses before I tried the genuine scents. I'm going to get that "Fallen Leaf" fragrance, too, thanks to you.
Without even knowing you were going to post a video from clone houses, yesterday, i pulled the trigger on a sample pack from Scentual Obsessions. 1. King of Kings 2. Double Aventus 3. Royal Oud 4. Elysium 5. Cedrat Boise 6. BKR 540 Hopefully they will all be good.
Hey man I've been watching all your videos for about a year and I was wondering if u can review an old classic ,old spice classic cologne but not the aftershave but the actual cologne
God bless you Brother, do you know a very good clone of 1 Million Prive? It’s upsetting that it has been discontinued; so I’d like to find a clone that I can use, so that way I can save my Prive bottles.
I have bought a lot of clone's. The best clone house I've tried are chatler fragrances. One of the worst is armaf fragrances or any from sterling fragrances. I don't get the hype . Axis elegant man is the best sauvage clone I've tried it's only £10. Pretty much all fragrances are synthetic these days. How can you say a fragrance smells synthetic? These clones are hard to find most don't even exist anymore and the one's you can find are really expensive.
Great video brother, love the variety. I appreciate being part of the video. FYI the Andy Warhol is still 25% but you were spot on with the less powdery and floral and more of the woods because I did change that but I’m working on a gold line formulation at 33%.
Hey my Cajun Brother! Nice choices! What fragrance house is from another Cajun Brother? Does he have a website? Would love to try the Bonfire! Be Good, Stay Safe…👍
ALT fragrances is the stuff! I blind bought BR540, Layton and Oud Wood scents from ALT frags...Ross spray swipe...... .🤭 "man oh man oh man!! All three are signature scent worthy Agar Wood has got me beating the ladies off at church!!🤭🤭😁😁😁🙏🏾🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Say man, I'm gonna need you to stop doing videos for awhile. They're great and I've bought so many off of your videos (most recently El Goodo and Paisley Sky), I'm trying to stop and wear them all. Now I gotta get Uncle Jumbo, Blue Sapphire, and Andy Warhol ! You're killing me, man lol (puttin' in more over time work to fund this fragrance collection obsession you've created in me!) Stay well, R !
Aventus (21n01), scentual obsessions king of kings, parfums vintage emperor extrait, montagne pineapple Royale (most recient iteration), dossier musky oakmoss (apple forward batches 9.8 on those batches but I like pineapple more), Dua 13zz (full disclosure the notes line up w whats profiled on their site, and its a v new bottle.. needs to set a few weeks to get where its going imho) ill throw brasilia prive under the bus in last place. I love alexandria I just don't like this one. Its... off. But I'd still wear it. If I was out of the others. NOT RANKED BUT OWNED: CDNIM FULL LINE. just smells like skunk urine to me. All this is based on accuracy to my 21n01 and not longevity.
I only own a couple clones. First and foremost Club de Nuit Intense Man which is an Aventus clone that is done very well. Second is from Scentual Obsessions called Bold and Confident which is a clone of Amouage Overture and I've never had the chance to smell Overture but a coworker told me it smells eerily similar. And I'm gonna throw this last one in even though it's really not a clone but kinda smells like Bleu de Chanel and it's Missoni Perfum Pour Homme. I definitely would like to try other clone houses but there is so many other colognes I want to add to my collection that the clones I want is usually pushed back. I'll get to try them one day though.
Most of my clones are alexandria/dua. Some montagne. I got like 5 from alexandria out of 20 or so that I didn't vibe w 2 original creations. Then royalty and arabian forrest (creed rips) vit c and egyptian seduction. Other hand, they make my absolute fav version of latyon, tied for first place w dua for herod clones and herod is def below them now esp w the reformulated bs they tried to send me a month ago. Sent it back. I do really love alexandria. For their price, amazing way to find out if you might like a frag from like Tom ford. But honestly they do a lot of it even better than the originals imvvvvho. Looove me some duas too. Got like 20, really don't like ONE. Fortune. And I hear it's spot on, I just hate lavender in frags on my skin. Smells super old lady (which Idgaf about ill rock the fk out of feminine leaning like jasmine rouge and don't leave me around your girl when I am lol) and no tobacco for me so meh, but all their hybrids are really fun. V playful frags. And stuff like intimacy an original im absolutely obsessed w. It gives tobacco vanille and baccus a run for their money. Montagne does really well also. And very affordable at 40-45$/50ml. Prob like their presentation best. Le labo style bottles and print. Their frags are as good as dua/alex tbh. I like their version of bergamot 22 the best of the clones of that one I have. Their le bonbon and pineapple Royale are great together. Thats pretty much all I got about clones. OH dont pay retail for dua/alex. They always have sales. Dua every weekend like 30% off.
Well the original ones are the greedy ones by overpricing at the same time as the quality gets weaker and weaker. So if anything it is them who are cheating and stealing from the consumers
A lot of clones perform way better and are cheaper than the original fragrance. It doesn’t make sense sometimes to buy an expensive fragrance with shitty performance when you could get a clone that is way better value
@@2AbleFly Yeah and shoes from Walmart perform just as well yet no one who can afford a luxury is buying knock offs from walmart...just saying!! Creating a fragrance is an art therefore you can charge what you want pricing art isnt greed!!!
That is correct! Clones are all of that, but that's who I'm buying from anyway. I just want to smell great for cheap. Now if the clone is more expensive or too close in price I'm going original.
I'm shocked you chose duas black widow over alexandria dark knight black widow is very peanut buttery compared to actual black phantom also try tux by dua its prolly the best tuxedo clone I've smelled
I have king of kings coming in the mail and just for anyone who hasn't shopped with Kevin holt from scentual obessions he's a solid guy I bought his old batch of nishane ani and it's like 0% similar to ani if anything it's similar to layton without being a clone just heavy menthol note that isn't in nishane ani he offered to send me a 30ml of any other frag for free so I've watched tltg alot and knew k.o.k or Andy warhol were definitely going to be my pick he really takes care of his customers I've seen him send bottles to dummies who dropped theirs and broke it hes a really good dude
Great video Ross, Thank you for including our fragrances in the mix. Some great fragrances up there, I own and really enjoy a few of the houses & fragrances on your list as well. Have a great day!

ill buy all the creeds, killians,rojas u can sell me for 70-80$ at discounters ....no good niche perfumes are on sale 🤫
It's just you, and you are lucky you can spend 60/70 without worries.
Im interested in the uncle jumbo. It looks out of stock on his website right now though. But 16-18 hours? Geez that alone is impressive.
It's a beast very good
I've got a clone of Layton from Dapper fragrances. It smells like Apple pie too me. Will buy more from this clone house

“I” by Costume National is amazingly close to Layton. Not sure I’ll buy the real thing again.
One of my favorites is 1981x from Alexandria...a clone of 1861 Naxos by Xerjoff.
Can someone put the link to making scents
Does Makin scents smell like its more for old or more 25-30+ age range?
Dua's blend Midnight Rendezvous with the Mobster - LNDL and Creation-E is some great stuff.
Great list
Haunted by Makin Scents Kilian Black Phantom and MM By the fireplace blend, I love it! And Andy Warhol from Scentual Obsessions, great list!
That’s what I’m talking about 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼
I have bought a lot of clone's. The best clone house I've tried are chatler fragrances. One of the worst is armaf fragrances or any from sterling fragrances. I don't get the hype .

Anything Club De Nuit. 😎
Love the Playstation buttons in the back lol
Wow I literally never even heard of non well most of these fragrances . Very interesting…
Love the video idea and execution!
Check out Zoha Aroma. Their clone of Virgin island water is spot on, if not better.
Check out Dua Casino Royale.... think iys a clone of BR540 extrait
I have it. In turn, you should try Haramain Amber Oud Rouge
You should try Afnan Modest Une,it's a great clone of Sauvage
This isn't about the UAE clone houses
Happy Monday

I have king of kings coming in the mail and just for anyone who hasn't shopped with Kevin holt from scentual obessions he's a solid guy I bought his old batch of nishane ani and it's like 0% similar to ani if anything it's similar to layton without being a clone just heavy menthol note that isn't in nishane ani he offered to send me a 30ml of any other frag for free so I've watched tltg alot and knew k.o.k or Andy warhol were definitely going to be my pick he really takes care of his customers I've seen him send bottles to dummies who dropped theirs and broke it hes a really good dude
GREAT VIDEO!!!
