Just come across your channel. I love the original Boss Bottled, but was lucky enough to get this for Christmas. Awesome smell!
@@JustforFun-k8p glad you found me! Yea I was lucky enough to get a bottle of this for Christmas. It’s great isn’t it!
It certainly is! As I said I’m a massive Boss fan! Keep up the good work with the channel and all good wishes for the New Year matey!
@ thank you! All the best for the new year for you too! Anything you’d like to see reviewed?
To be honest having looked at your other videos you’ve reviewed some of my favourites, but I also like anything from Paco Rabanne and Emporio Armani. Great work on the channel. Look forward to your next installment! 👍
How does this compare to the bottled elixir?
@@VDM32 I’d say the Absolu feels a bit more masculine in the opening with the leather and smoky incense but this Soon makes way for the alluring sweetness, the elixir is maybe a bit more fresh and spicy in the opening, both awesome scents and the best Boss has produced in my opinion!
Lattafa Asad is Elixir “lite”.
@@jimmy5634 great comment! Have to agree with you.
Still miss the 'Paco' part of the Rabanne brand, rolled off the tongue so well and made it sound more exotic! For me, 1 Million Elixir is still the best available offering.
@@xavious5017 I agree with you on the elixir! Longest lasting and best scent profile!
You were lucky with your Dad's choice of fragrance, Dan, all those years ago. I would have had to settle for good old carbolic soap! 😅 Can't even remember my first aftershave, probably brut!😱 Just the wiffs this week then.
@@DocColVideo 🤣🤣
Ive tried it also and i agree. Its probably one of the best ive tried this year, great if youre slightly mature. Next frangrance i buy for sure
@@nickb7014 100% agree with the mature bit Nick. I’m looking forward to getting this in my collection!
Sounds good matey, how much was it? I'll nip into Boots before my special night out and ask 'em to give us a squirt on my neck! 😂
@@DocColVideo on offer at the moment! £57 for 50ml 👍
@@hopsandwhiffs 😱😆
I want to smell it !!
Honest! I bet Kieran would love it!
Asad is quality! Brilliant aftershave.
100% sir and for that price you can not turn it down!
I totally agree with you Brother, It's very nice parfum with amazing sillage and longevity are awesome specially on the clothes.. I support you my dear ..
@@ahmedadam4134 100% it’s a great fragrance.
in my country there are shops who has ''as they claim'' identical extraits to original fragrances that they mix and sell with really cheaps prices (under 5 an d 10 usd) ... i tried them and they really smell like the originals and last pretty good ... what do you think of that , do you think there is some drawback for sure as it is too good to be true ! like health issues
@@bmc508 almost sounds like”too good to be true” at that price. What bottle sizes are they producing? I’d be interested in having a look at them 👍
@@hopsandwhiffs they just have extraits and they can mix and produces concentrations for any volume you want .. 50/30/100/200 ml ..they claim they are buying those really concentrated oil like extraits from europeans countries
@@bmc508I guess it’s like rough perfumery in the spot. I bet some turn out better than others!
@@hopsandwhiffs smell wise they are good and last like original perfumes .. but they are more oily texture wise and the opening smell synthetic for sure
Id have to agree with you there regarding Al Haramain Détour noir! Definetely the best from that line up ❤🔥 But i must admit, the bottle is growing on me🤣 Another cracking video mate 💪
@@TheOfficialAlibags love it! I guess the bottle has its quirky-ness
Great presentation, Dan, as always, but fragrances for the A&W 🤔. Us oldies tend to stick to deep heat and a fishermans friend Dan. Brrrrrr 🥶😂
@@DocColVideo 😂😂😂
I really enjoy your video, tonight more than other times obviously 😂❤
@@filippomavaro7780 haha Forza Juve!
Always the best!
@@filippomavaro7780 of course! grazie per la birra!
Sexy and attractive eh...... order me 2 bottles right away. 😅 Another great presentation, Dan. Well done, matey 👍
I thought the same way with acqua di gio
@@timelessofficial642 I’m glad I’m not the only one! Definitely leaning towards that popular scent profile!
Oh well; at least you enjoyed the ale Dan. 😅
A very good presentation again, matey. 👌So in summary, you think thier No. 2 fragrance ...... is a No 2! 😂😂
Great Review! I testing this out right now. Pretty close to Layton. Layton is better quality but you can can't beat the price on Detour Noir! I get about 6 hours. Bottle is very ugly - but I've learned some tricks on how to hold it and put the cap back on properly. 😂 👍
@@deadlyradiation7977 yea you can definitely tell the difference in quality but this is one amazing smelling dupe! The bottle is 100% ugly!
@@hopsandwhiffs Agree, the juice is good. The bottle not so much. My sprayer is good. I've heard some sprayers were bad - hopefully they have fixed this going forward. 🤞
You guys should really get your hands on a bottle of Amber Oud Exclusif Bleu if you like Laytons DNA. Exclusif is the best Layton clone hands down. Its a fresher, more wearable version of Layton and its high quality. The bottle, presentation, and atomizer are all great. I picked up a bottle for $42 and thats a steal for what you get. The hype is true with Exclusif.
@@TerrainJeremy3945 Thank you!
@@TerrainJeremy3945 looking for it now!! Thanks
Bought this as you said for £25 you can't go wrong ..its a nice fragrance and it lasts also
@@phatsopaul it’s one of my favourites! For cost and compliments I’d recommend it to anyone!
Latest best Angel's Share clones are Celerio Dumont Epic and FA Paris Royal Blend. Cheers.
@@shmoopiebear nice! Which do you think is the best?
Super presentation matey. Bishops finger... good job it didn't turn out to be the middle one! 😂 £300 v £25 .... Hmmmm, cheap is King if you slap it on every 2 hours! 🤠🤑 Box goes in the bin in our house! 😂😂
The original is my most complimented fragrance. I hope the new one smells similar. I'll come back for your review when you get your hands on it!! :)
@@billieclark6526 yeah I think the original is so underrated. From what I read online, it should be similar, but hopefully I’ll let you know soon!
Because I'm an absolute beer nause as you know Dan, the banana you're getting will be from the esters from fermentation, ie. the yeast.
@@cadencebrew brilliant!! Thanks for the explanation! Happy to have you on in a future collaboration?
Great presentation, Dan. Still not persuaded yet to fork out £80+ to smell classier, but feel free to send me samples!😁 Ps. That tiling in the background looked amazing BTW. 🤭
Yessir!!! 💪🏼
What do you think of Tom Ford’s Oud Wood or Tobacco Wood? I’m struggling to make the decision on which one I prefer 😅
@@John94631 thanks for the comment. My preference is oud wood, but they definitely both have their place in the fragrance world. I might have to do a video comparing both!
Great beer that one, and yes do a few more belgian ones plenty of good ones duval goes up to 6.6 and la chouff is 8 but doesn't taste it. Also for a low end % can of German scofferhofer at 2.5 is a really refreshing grapefruit radler
@@phatsopaul well there’s a few more for me lined up! I tried that grapefruit schofferhofer not long ago, definitely very refreshing! I’ll be off to stock up with more beer soon!! 🍺
Loving how you did more on the beer in this video mate! 💪🏼
@@TheOfficialAlibags appreciate that! I’ll keep that in mind for future videos👍
i got it a week ago. it's great it has its own personality and character
@@GlitcheadosComunidadChile it certainly does! It’s so interesting and unique!
Good to see a new fragrance reviewer, I have my own channel as well I just subscribed 💪💪
@@Mr.Cologne thank you! I will go check your channel out! ☺️
@@hopsandwhiffs Thank you so much
Maybe it's very nice but still too pricey for me! But then again, my smell to attract attention days are well and truly behind me. 😅😅 A polished presentation though. 👏
@@DocColVideo thanks Col! It’s never too late to smell good 🤣
@@hopsandwhiffs That's what the missus says when I come home after balti night! 🤔
I purchased this and it arrived after watching this review I had to buy it
@@phatsopaul what do you think of it?
@hopsandwhiffs it's very nice, been years since I had la male and you just get new notes off it after putting it on. Well worth the money.
Enjoy your channel !
@@KellsSmells thank you! I’ll check your yours today 😊
Great stuff 🔥 how about Polo blue parfum for your next blue fragrance?? 🐎
Great suggestion!!!
Spring, Summer, Autumn, and even Winter.. an all-year-rounder then. 🤓 Great presentation, matey. 👍
@@DocColVideo thanks Col! Appreciate that!
Absolutely amazing! ❤
Absolutely amazing! Thank you so much! ❤
How many times have 'pulled it off in the office' DT (Hops and Whiffs)
U talk too much boy
You mean "What is your favourite fragrance EVER?"
The dry down blows aventus out of the water.
@@za205-zmo for the price it’s insanely good isn’t it!
Hi, which pdm parfums do you choose?
@@garmention I’ve always been a massive Layton fan and would always encourage people to look at Sedley and Percival. Do you have a favourite?
Where was Old Spice, Brut and Hai Karate then? 😂😂😂 Great vlog Dan, keep it up! 👏
@@DocColVideo 🤣 might try and review then too
It's a good vlog mate!
@@paxtontom79 thank you! Any recommendations on what i should rank next?
@hopsandwhiffs I like d&g one and also Jimmy choo ice. Both very different fragrances
@@paxtontom79 yea both very different but both lovely! I’ll add them to the list!
Love it! ❤
When is the next post??? We can’t wait any longer!
Hopefully uploading this weekend
Yea no, should not be spraying that shit on you
Makes for a good video and you’re definitely brave for spraying that directly on you. However there are tons of decent cheapies that I’d rather wear
Yea, there are loads of great cheapies available. What are your favourites?
@@hopsandwhiffs Lacoste L!ve you can usually find for $20 -good gym scent. Diesel Masculine Plus Plus is weak but nice and possibly even less.
@@debusen81 nice! I might have to sort a video to prove you shouldn’t waste your money on fakes form the far east when we have so many good cheapies on our doorstep!
Hola Hombre. Chinese Scent may be cheap, but it's surely bent if it doesn’t reek! Loving the relaxed style and who doesn’t like the suspense of a new box opening. 😅👍👏👏
🤣🤣🤣
