Maison Alhambra is an Arab/Middle Eastern Dupe/Clone House who's copied many Parfums De Marly Fragrances. They copied Marly's Pegasus and called it Perseus. So is this a way for Marly to get back at Maison Alhambra by copying the name to cause confusion?

💥💥💥Please watch my 5000+ Bottles and These Are The 20 Fragrances I Wear Most video here: th-cam.com/video/1b9LEqjJg5I/w-d-xo.html 💥💥💥
Initially I wasn't wowed by it, as its nothing new and unique. However with each wear I grew to enjoy it more and more. So much so I purchased a 125ml bottle. Yes its simple, but it's done right. Fresh, uplifting and the quality is 👌
And its long lasting
thanks for the video. btw have you heard what Commodity is going to do with their archive fragrances?
As a female I love it! I love the brightness and realistic mandarin. It’s also long lasting for a citrus and it just goes and goes! I find it so sexy on my husband as well. Heck I even spray it in the air just to smell it haha! And it will fill a room!
Awesome.
I'm with you. I love it. They hit it for me
Greenley kills it and gets me tons of compliments.
Perseus is pretty good, but to much like Terre de Hermes with some Percival for me (both of which I already own).
I absolutely love this fragrance. It opens up with a citrus blast, and then there is this fresh woody flavor on the dry down. Its lovely and I would recommend this fragrance.
didn’t like it at first but came alive on my skin. so many compliments when i wear this fragrance.
It’s not bad, honestly. I smelled it twice at Le Bon Marche and wore it once. It’s okay, not exciting but it’s fine for $140-150. At $400 it’s a joke.
I do definitely get what you’re saying about the Vetiver /Citrus. I already have two of them. Hugo Boss Reversed. I wonder if Elysium is somewhat similar??? Sebastian could you please review Blue Talisman. It’s getting quite a bit of hype lately.
Smelled in tha Dubai mall and wasn’t blown away. Great video brother.
Thanks for stopping by!! 😀
And here's me wearing Vetiver Pamplemousse today. 😄 Layered with 78 Vintage Green. 👌 A little something I call "Pamplemousse de The." 🤫🥰
Oh sweet Idea, I'll try that
I just got 78 Vintage Green but I thought it lacked a little something. Thx
Hi Sebastian, here is a new Brazilian admirer of your reviews. In your opinion, what is the best fragrance from the house of Marly for women? ❤
I love your reviews Sebastian, even if I don’t own the fragrance. I do not own many Parfume de Marly except for Delina, Oriana and Valaya, which are all relative to women. However, I do own a few Middle Eastern perfumes, but do not own nor have smelled Perseus. Thanks again for all you do for us fragrance lovers.
Sebastian, sry for offtop, but have you ever smelled anything similar to dove soap with moroccan argan oil? you have much more experience than me and i've been searching for perfume like that, but could not find anything, maybe you could help? or anyone here
I didn’t like it at first because the bottle made me expect an orange citrus summer bomb. It took a few times of wearing it before I started to love it. But now I really love it it smells really lovely.
Hi Sebastian, you are the best youtuber in my opinion. Greetings from Berlin Germany. 👍
Wow, thanks!
Wholeheartedly agree with you Michael 👍🏼
Yes, totally agree! ❤
Thank you Sebastian. Another informativ video.🙏
Perseus by PdM smells awkwardly similar to Hermes Terre D'Hermes. By the way, it was great meeting you at Van Cleef event at NM, what was your favorite from them?
The only one I want to try is the OFG Neo just cause I really like OFG and if I like it I don't think I'll get it until it's available on discounters, I 'm not interested in this one or Althaïr I'm bored of these more of the same money grabbers, I don't fall for it. I don't think that they care about Maison Alhambra, they're doing pretty good with their fragrances, PDM is very popular but I could be wrong. Anyway it's good to hear your take on it, thanks for the review Sebastian!!!
This combination is not groundbreaking BUT its longevity is absolutely amazing. The freshness lasts literally all day. Highly recommended for hot summer days.
Yes hot summer days will be perfect for this one!! :)
Hello Sebastian why I haven’t bought it yet- Expensive price, seems somewhat redundant, PD fragrances not that beefy anymore like they use too ( not all of them) and can find cheaper alternatives like you said Zara one and NR Vetiver Musc.
Any PdM from discounters only! I haven’t gotten my nose on Perseus at all, but my guess is I’ll feel it redundant between my variations of TdH, and a bunch of very bright citruses - including shockingly long lasting ones from Xerjoff and Kerosene, both!
Byerly sounds good, and is well discounted apparently, but I’ll likely find it sold out by the time I would decide and budget for it.
Could you please review the unisex fragrances that can be called abstract? What’s new over the last 3-5 years? I want to find modern elegant and expressive perfumes, corresponding to the modern lifestyle surrounded by urbanism and digital technology
I got a sample of it from Saks. I enjoyed it but possibly too expensive for what it is. But if I got it as a gift from my husband I'd surely be happy.
I bought the last Byerley at the PDM Boutique downtown Manhattan NYC…
Love the dry down !
I love this! Three sprays on the neck plus one spray of a Aventus gets me mega compliments!
Because of the one spray Aventus haha
@@wutru3142lol that was good. 🍍
I sampled this recently while checking a series of citrusy fragrances before summer.
On the same day I tried Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic. Very different, but the Guerlain is much more what I'm looking for out of a citrus.
Perseus to me is citrus for someone who goes to work and spends the day in an air conditioned place. Serious, and citrus gives way to wood. Guerlain is a citrus scent for someone who wants to go out, airy, natural, and fresh green.
I know these two fragrances are like comparing Mandarins to Grapefruits 😬, but I'll happily accept when my preferences points me to the cheaper option.
Maybe pressure from how popular LV citrus frags are got to PDM execs and they felt like they needed to go frehie and basic.
I think I saw Vetiver Pamplemousse boxes in Zara stores in Spain last December. The German website right now does not have it, but says "Coming soon".
Imho Vetiver Pamplemousse is among the very best fragrances Zara has ever released. Among my very top from Zara to say the least, together with Warm Black, Antique Brown, Vibrant Leather EDP, and Vibrant Leather Cologne.
Agreed - Vetiver Pamplemousse is incredible. Best grapefruit note I’ve ever smelled.
@@SirSillageSniffington Same here, the grapefruit in it is spot on.
Hey sebastian do you have a code with dor prestige? ❤
Yes sure. Here you go: PERFUMEGUY take 10% off thank you for asking! :)
Can you compare Neroli Plein Sud vs Neroli Outre Noir
Definitely better in the warm weather, projects so much better.
And today, I layered this with Habit Rouge Privé. Just wow! Incredible!
Wow. Sounds great re layering!!
Its a pleasant scent but doesn't feel special, the bottle should be a transparent orange since its a "freshie"
I ordered a sample of Perseus. My favourite Parfums de Marly perfume for hot weather is definitely Galloway.
Hi Sebastian!😀
Try layering ‘’Perseus’’ on top of Initio’s ‘’Narcotic Delight’’. Really good combo!🔥
Would be cool to hear your thoughts on that mix!👍
Love from Norway❤
Have it and love it. My wife REALLY loves it!
I got the vibrant leather and tobacco elixir and i enjoyit
Hey Sebastian. Busy week. Haven’t tried this one.
Oh but so many fragrances so little time!! Thanks for stopping by. 😀
PDM Perseus smells great and it lingers on my skin all day long. It isn’t as aromatic as I’ll like it to be, but it’s great. Idk why people keep comparing this to Tier Hermes because they are nothing alike. Another great grapefruit fragrance is Roja Parfums Elysium Parfum cologne
Perseus leans masculine in my opinion but I love it and I am enjoy it …..loving my mystery box 3 samples…outstanding box ❤️
I like how PDM stretching there BOUNDARIES😏✌️❤️
House of marky have great stuff i just ieder althair smells great. Haltane and Layton these 3 are my bests ones in my opinion
Hey Sebastian, please review Tilia by Marc Antoine Barrios. I’m looking forward to hearing your views.
Tilia is great!
Super off topic but Sebastian you should try layering by the fireplace with mula mula; somehow it smells different than both frags
I never got into that brand that has that fragrance mula mula. Maybe it’s time to go back and check them out.
@@ThePerfumeGuy its really nice!!! They have a fragrance called black dragon which is also very good!
It isnt anything knew, however its still a good release and an enjoyable wear.
I like the dry down. The first 25 minutes is a bit bright.
Sampled it in Nordstrom’s and expected to be WOWED!! The bottle is beautiful, the weather would be perfect for what the notes suggest, and in the end…. Meh. Just meh. I know that I wouldn’t be reaching for it over Greeley or Percival so I walked away saddened due to my own way too high expectations
Tried it and wasn't blown away, but I think all PDM perfumes, especially male targeting ones, need a lot of time to emancerate to start lasting longer and smelling better
I'm surprised there isn't a white floral here. I think a bit of jasmine would have taken it up a level.
I love it!!
Other than Carlisle, I'm really not a fan of the PDM brand. Mostly my entire collection consist of niche luxury. But this works for me as a dumb reach.
I'm actually a little surprised that many don't like it. But works for me.
you like prunes ?? :)..I cant stand Carlisle..gave the $ 400 carlisle bottle to my 14 year old son..just too dark
Glad I only bought a 5ml decant, it is very uninspiring, there is many fragrances out there that smell in the same vein.
It has that nasty bitter grapefruit opening like D&G Italian Love? Like rubbing grapefruit peel on your skin and really goes nowhere from there. So disappointed in this. Love your content, thanks for keeping us up to date. ❤
Nobody talks about Byerley, which is a shame, because it's one of my favorites from PdM. Sad to hear it has been discontinued. Not sure why they would release something similar to Terre d'Hermes (actually I suspect more like Montale Red Vetiver) while discontinuing the stellar Byerley (massively underrated IMO) is beyond me...gotta be about $ales, I suppose.
Yes it was massively underrated. I will savor my bottle! :)
When I tried this one, it wasn't exciting!
What would you choose between Perseus and Eau Givree?
Eau Givree is more natural smelling whereas Perseus has greater longevity but smells synthetic.
@@caseyplunkett6083 thank you 🙏🏾
@@dru812002 Imo Terre dHermes Parfum is better than Perseus. Although TDH Parfum has more of the orange and not the grapefruit citrus, I really do consider Perseus to be heavily inspired by TDH.
Perhaps try both so that you can choose the best option for yourself.
This summer I’m gonna try layering TDH Parfum and Eau Givree.
Since pdm is no longer like $150 at discounters im not buying any more of them. Currently I have 15 of their offerings
Same have 15 too and I remember their 4.2’oz’s were going for full pres around 160 glad I was able to buy most of the ones I like. I do want to snag Althair very pleasant idk about the 225-250 price tag for it though. 180 would be justified, Perseus is mid and a hard pass.!
This one smells exactly like Nishane Hacivat, in the dry down, but Pegasus is just stronger.
Opening is very citrus heavy and unfortunately it’s a scent I’m not going to buy, it’s just not that exciting.
I loved Byerley and was very sad when it was discontinued.
I agree too bad it got the ax! :(
I feel like a grapefruit with vetiver list is coming.
Or perhaps I’m hoping that it is.
LOL. There are a ton out there!! You've given me an idea now! LOL. :)
I agree it’s somewhat unremarkable, but very uplifting, pleasant and has a bit of its own character.
I must confess I bought bought Byerly a while back (based on your recommendation) and hated it. I love vetiver, but there’s some note that’s sour and off putting in Byerly. Much prefer Perseus!
Interesting that I find Althair to be meh (boring) in the same way you describe Perseus. So many SWY type of frags out there;
Just shows everyone brings their own olfactory preferences, don’t they? 😅
PDM’s Perseus is an excellent fragrance. It’s long lasting and a compliment beast. Even my golf buddies like it. LOL My wife loves it on me as well AND she’s picky as hell LOL
It’s orange aspects pop on my skin and then becomes very calming on the drydown.
I just hope most will try by giving it at least two full day wears. It’ll surprise you in spite of what most influencers are saying.
And, Sebastian, I do hope you give it a wear in heat, then come back to us with an update. Cheers
Designer fragrance with niche price tag
Talking about PDM, I wore greenley today- it was great in the air, horrible on my skin. Wore it today got tons of compliments 🤣- I can’t wear it again
LOL
Same on my skin. Opens beautifully but then dried down to a very grassy and almost urine smell. I sold it.
I love the idea of it, but the price is not justified & you'd think they would use real ambergris to at least make you feel like your not getting reamed. It refreshing to see your last 2 videos that give such honest opinions, I really loved the honesty in the designer list. Cheers Brutha 😎
U will get it for less than half the price from online discounters. Just wait a bit.
This one was a dud! For the price, nah I'll pass! Only got a decent. Waiting on the new Versace Eros. Bottle looks similar, hopefully that one is more exciting!
So basically just buy Terre D'Hermes again, got it
PDM Perseus is way better then Tier Hermes
Just bought it yesterday!
Smells like a more refined, luxury Terre de Hermes
Love it!
Great!!
terre d'hermes eau givrée
Yea it just seems super basic I love vetiver but I would expect a bit more creativity from this house
Smells similar to Hermes eau givree
I’ll stick with Sedley
Tested this a Neiman cause I’m a big fan of PDM. This fragrance is absolutely horrible and piercing sharp, synthetic & not good in my opinion. Mind you I live in Texas relatively hot here and it wasn’t enjoyable very mid. If you want a fresh pdm go with greenly or sedley
Big byerley fan here. very classy & masculine. One of the best from De Marly IMO.
I agree but sadly axed! :(
I despise vetiver
My gf loves Perseus on me
The Story Behind Parfums de Marly Byerley Eau de Parfum
Created by Yann Vasnier, Byerley celebrates the proud history of the majestic horse. It shares its namesake with one of the earliest three stallions, deemed the founders of the modern thoroughbred horse racing bloodstock. According to legend, this dark brown stallion was born during a thunderstorm; as a result, he was a fearsome warhorse as he didn’t fear the sounds of gunfire.
It’s incredibly fitting that Parfums de Marly’s Eau de Parfum is just as unwavering. It opens with a clever juxtaposition of spicy-floral bergamot and warm cardamon before blending into a sensual, heart of cedarwood and guaiac wood, resulting in a fragrance that’s intense and characterful.
Finally, the base marries earthy-smoky vetiver and ambery balsam, rounding off this rich and lasting scent.
I do enjoy Yann’s fragrances! Thanks for sharing. 😀
I understand your opinion - although I’m a digger for fresh citrusy scents especially the grapefruit + Vetiver combination, this one is slightly boring. If this scent had some oomph/complexity (eg some florals or aromatics or other aroma chemicals in the heart), it would’ve been much more interesting.
Sounds like they stole Kirk Elliot fragrance from instagram
Also the Zara version used to last about 45 mins lol
Yeah, many Zara fragrances don’t last!!
I tried the perseus not a fan of it
This one is boring got a 10ml and got so bored on the dry down I prefer Roja Elysium over this All day long !
I love it man it so good! These people will lie like hell. People complain about anything they get on my dam nerves. Love perseus opening so good and that drydown oh man so good. I'm glad they brought something different
I don’t think you should be accusing people of lying. Why would I lie about something that I think is boring?
@ThePerfumeGuy People will lie about shit. I wasn't talking about these people on here. I don't care what you think buddy it ain't boring
@@ThePerfumeGuy people lie about stuff all the time
@@jts4248I agree it’s not boring, IT SUCKS! 😂
@Grinchy1230 You want a cookie
i guess the copycat "houses" doesn't trademark their parfum names, and PdM does, so they can sue the shit out of them :)))
🌹
If you fill vommit in an orange bottle that is what this shit is all about!!
lol this specific fragrance from an elite house like PDM smells like bad breath lol
Elite? Haha
Bad breath? Yuck! 🤢
I don't what you are smelling 😂
Blind buy for me which I am sorry for. Not a fan. Not a pleasant scent or PDM worthy as I see it.
It smells like bug spray...disappointing
I didn’t care for it at all.
Really over priced for what it is
An irritating fragrance that is strong enough to keep on being annoying!
Didn't like this one! I take that back.. I absolutely hated it! Sour & smells cheap. Couldn't believe how bad it was if I'm honest! Poor release from PDM
You are crazy go on with the lies. You haven't smelt it
@jts4248 what you on about you little weirdo I smelt it on store its vile! Didn't like it at all
@sandymcconnell1969 brother your a grown man what's a PDM hater? Why would I hate them I own percival just thought this one was shite. Go outside or something not everyone likes the same thing do you understand that?
@jts4248 I posted a story on my insta when I tried this want my insta? Little weirdo I bet you work for the brand. Imagine thinking a £240 tdh rip off was a good fragrance
@sandymcconnell1969 mate your like 40! Mate are you doing! 😂
PdM - boring designer tier scents and outright dupes at high end niche prices.
Nope..
Good juice
Nope..
All PdM does is dupe other fragrances. Very overhyped and overpriced house
All the ingredients are just so cheap and flimsy. It’s not worth a third what they’re asking for it.
