Delphinus reminds me of Tom Ford “Lost Cherry” with a hint of vanilla. I always visit the boutique when we are in Vega. Grabbed some “Carmina” for my lady. Always a first class experience at the Creed Boutiques. 🥂
The gal at the Zürich Globus store slid me several samples of both Centaurus and Delphinus. Haven’t tried them yet but she told me that several of the sales ladies and female customers smelled it & said that they would prefer Delphinus over Centaurus on a man.
The initial spray gives me impressions of Camphor. As it dries down I get the sweet tobacco, amber, and a touch of cedar and leather. Like it's trying to smell like a humidor in an old library
My favorite Neiman's sales rep sent me a tester for Centaurus and Delphinus. Solid entries for me while not being instant loves. I like them both, but I didn't get a chance to apply them before they were gone. Sadly, my wife and daughters got to them before I did. Amouage's Royal Tobacco is still in the lead as tobacco fragrances for me.
Yes! I thought it was just me....I got the minty smell too...in my case, for much longer...but it was not mentioned in other reviews I have seen....nice fragrance though
Hello Mr. Bow Tie. The minty smell in the opening that you're getting is the Tobacco Leaf proprietary blend that's exclusive to creed mixing with that cardamom in the mid. Think Vintage Tabarome for reference, I'm surprised you didn't mention the PDM Carlisle Vibe similarity since that was your signature scent for a long time ;) Surprisingly, as much as a love a good tobacco and spice profile, especially for fall weather, that I ended up liking Delphinus slightly more. Creed is going a new direction so expect more orientals and gourmands and less freshies, aquatics and Chypre's. If it's one thing thing Creed did better then anyone, it was their fresh fragrances so this is a big daring and may I say risky change.
What? Creed didn’t send you a bottle? Whats the frag world coming to? 😂 at least we all know this isn’t a hype video over a free bottle. Keeping it real!
Creed could put more pressure on the presentation in my opinion! No one would show up to an interview to a job paying $400k yearly wearing jeans and a graphic t shirt
what does a Ferrari come in when you buy it brand new ? plastic . not everything is for everyone but the scent speaks for itself that’s why you buy it because it smells amazing not to look at the box ? the box it meant to go straight into the trash after you buy it 😭
Mind Games has a fall/winter fragrance coming out titled MENTOR and it is incredible on black men’s skin. Projection it has is awesome and I just can’t say enough about the tabacoo smell it gives off initially is amazing. Also the dry down may be one of the most creamier fragrances I’ve ever smelled. Be on the lookout for this one.
Smells like a refined Red Tobacco with improvement of like 20% but with a 3x price. Also missing the Creed DNA that has ambergris. I'm keeping my screw cap Red Tobacco thanks. A pass for me.
@@TexasAlabamaBoi205 i swear to my MOTHER i am saying this for past several years yet all those niche snoobs falling for it. I am a perfumer (not a hater) myself and know exactly what i am saying.
I guess to each their own.. but I truly do not see anything special about this fragrance, it's quite a pathetic release from the house. The smell is not bad per se but a lot is just ambroxan domination taking place here. I don't know.. I think many reviews on this release are out of excitement and the subconscious expectation from the house that due to its "history" it is supposed to be the "best"... just my 2 cents
A he only saying wat he like y say the negative shit about wat u dnt like or say extra bs come on yall it's wat he like n just trying to put people up on game wit the conlogne he think sumone else would like
Honestly IMO nobody care about these expensive azzz fragrances like that anymore. Clones , inspired by, hybrids, and middle Eastern affordable cologne are the New 🌊 Armaf will have a cheaper better version of this $400 bottle for under $50. within the month that will have more hype
Haha another fragrance TH-camr, who's also a very good perfumer with his own brand, reviewed it and said it was rubbish for the price, a total rip off! I bet he paid nothing for it
I have a bottle paid full retail. To me it smells like a male Opium would smell but with better ingredients and also i get Imagination by LV vibe and intensity. This cologne has to be worn on the neck in order to evaluate it. Not on hand or def not on paper On my skin magic happens and it develops after 3 or 4 hours on my neck. From the bottle, it smells like a fancy burgundy ink would smell like. When this macerates after a year, OMG watch out, and lock away your wives when dudes with this cologne show up, with a suit. The secret is, once it macerates, put only one spray on the neck. Thats the european secret. The minty note you seek, is called cardamom.
Finally a creed that’s strong and more for fall and winter . It smells awesome
This reminded me of Grand Soir once it settled on my hand. I stopped by NM yesterday and got the experience.
1st time I smelled it, I wasn't a fan. But, after testing on skin a couple times, I love it.
Isnt this smell of Big Red chewing gum or like Mancera Red Tobacco? I hear this. It is just cooking spice smell from your spice rack.
@@mikeg2538 shut up, man!
Isnt this like a Mancera Red Tobacco clone where it is Big Red gum scent on steroids ?
Same experience for me as well. Couldn’t stand it at first thinking it was cough syrup with tobacco 😂. Now I’m addicted to it!!!!
@mikeg2538 I’ve never smelled Red Tobacco
I smelled this fragrance at the mall yesterday. It got my attention immediately.

You and Kevin would have created one of the greatest fragrance lines for men and women 😎
Wearing it for the 1st time today, well into the drydown now and thoroughly enjoying it! Would absolutely consider a pickup at some stage
It's beautiful 😍
Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
Got a sample of this with my order of Hypnotizing fire..definitely grabbing a bottle seem like a perfect scent to wear on Christmas.
My guy you didn't have that same energy for this one it looks like this may be a Creed miss. Appreciate the review good brother...

Both releases are amazing. Centaurus is my favorite
I bought mines 2 days ago. I’m going to be wearing it this weekend.
I smelled it. It’s a must buy for me

@@mikeg2538 to me it’s a more amberiy royal oud
I'll check it out, but probably won't purchase it. Im getting another bottle of LV Imagination.
Am I tripping or does Creed Centaurus have a SLIGHT Naxos vibe to it? It reminds me of Naxos without the lavender 🤔
Smelled on this last week at Nieman Marcus and I have to say I'm very impressed! It will be in my collection very soon too. It smells amazing!
Creed dropping bombs with these 2 releases!!! Both are amazing.
Bowtie always bring it💯💯 "THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
Love the smell gave me a spice bomb extreme vibe. I was invited by a Creed representative to sample it. Will buy it for the fall winter.
You have better contacts than this fragrance channel lol

I am going to get mine next week.
I'm definitely buying the 100ml
I'm liking the new thumbnail style. 👍🏽
I like the graphics but I hate the thumbnail looking surprised and shocked
My man you are the man, this scent is a lovely scent but lasts 3 hours on my skin😢
Definitely purchasing this I need one more winter fragrance
You are my go to fragrance reviewer
I got the samples from my rep at Blomingdales but have yet to wear it. Want to give it a try in the cooler weather.
Thanks for putting me on mind games fragrances haven't tried much creed except green Irish tweed need to try more of there stuff.
Yes! I thought it was just me....I got the minty smell too...in my case, for much longer...but it was not mentioned in other reviews I have seen....nice fragrance though
Mine is on the way! I cant wait
I'm buying it this week
@@paveldoslakoski727 i love it
Great job Darian
Tried it yesterday in London, I really like it and think it's better than Delphinus. Not sure if I would buy it though!
When I tried it on my skin at Halls first thing I thought was "oh Amouage Boundless"
I got 5ml Centaurus and I am figuring it out. To me it feels aromatic spicey. I feel a zingyess
I just recieved a sample from my sister and finished it and now i want the 100ml bottle 😅

My dude got the fresh cut
Cinnamon lovers check in. I actually love Centaurus, smells like a sexy man and perfect for fall. ❤
Im cool. Ombre Nomad is king of Winter/Fall
Just put the sample on about 30 minutes ago, definitely unique but I'm not sure its for me, there's something in it that just throws me off
Then smell it again. You go to sleep and spray it on the tip of your nose and you will get used to it.
My favourate is original santal
Is this similar?
No.
Of course its a banger. Pretty sure he has an affiliate code for this, hustle on hustla
@@MELSMELLGOOD LOSER 😂😂🤣🤣💪🏾😂🤣 click on my link INCEL…😂😂🤣
@BowTieFragranceGuy 🚫 I will not 🤣. Damn NoTie fragrance Gal an INCEL? U must have sniffed too much Rose and vetiver this afternoon
@@BowTieFragranceGuy box head goofy
I heard Creed company doesn't send people a bottle if your reviewing clones of their colognes
The Father & Son card isn’t included in this box of Creed. Not sure why.
Estee don’t care about the heritage she has the company now
It reminds me of Initio Paragon
I would’ve thought he would have liked the other one it has more of an amber accord
What? Creed didn’t send you a bottle? Whats the frag world coming to? 😂 at least we all know this isn’t a hype video over a free bottle. Keeping it real!
Tried both at Saks last week, sadly not a fan of either
Creed could put more pressure on the presentation in my opinion! No one would show up to an interview to a job paying $400k yearly wearing jeans and a graphic t shirt
Are your sure about that. Maybe its a modeling gig or a professional game player
The bottles are beautiful, the packaging goes into the garbage.

Why do I need to know about a smell that lasts ten seconds bro?
was thinking the same 🤦😂 also he
doesn't sound very amazed by it.

Just on black men's skin?! LMFAO GTFO of here.
How much they paid you to say this?
@@MansaMusa-v5qthey paid him 40 acres and 1 mule 😅
On a black men's skin? WTF is wrong with you...
@@MansaMusa-v5qget a job and maybe you can afford to try it
Why do you when you present a product you have it right up on the camera. We can’t read or see what you’re discussing?
Unlike anything I have; it's okay.
Do it smell like Christian Dior Fahrenheit
Neither have a Fahrenheit feel IMHO. I have all the flankers and there's not overlap really.
I like delphinus better but both smell amazing
Does it smell like big red cuzz I hate big red
@@j317. Yeah. It has the big red vibe.
Is it extremely masculine
When i go to saks, i can never smell the creed all smell like empty aresol cans
Smells like a refined Red Tobacco with improvement of like 20% but with a 3x price.

Creed and tom ford dead and buried long time ago(in terms of price vs Quality)✌️
Finally someone said it! 😂😂
Creed and TF could release swamp water and folks would still say…..oh this is full bottle worthy 🤦🏾♂️
@@TexasAlabamaBoi205 i swear to my MOTHER i am saying this for past several years yet all those niche snoobs falling for it.

Tbh the only creed I like is Green Irish Tweed. So far it’s the only one that reminds consistent unless the older much was more potent?
Facts these reviewers tryna keep em alive. Armaf Club Denuit or Fragrance world will have clone of this $545 fragrance for $50 within 30days lol
People buy what they like.
Armaf do your job now 😂😂😂
FBB.
My chick loves this one loves it hates aventas just saying
ive only tested it once, but when I did, it smelt pretty generic. Disappointing
Video could be 5 minutes.
Delphinus is great, I dont like Centaurus, smells like a designer
Smells like cough syrup

I know right? How are people not smelling that this is a more refined but -50% strenght of a red tobacco for 3x the price?
He’s a hype job
A he only saying wat he like y say the negative shit about wat u dnt like or say extra bs come on yall it's wat he like n just trying to put people up on game wit the conlogne he think sumone else would like

This cologne has to be worn on the neck in order to evaluate it. Not on hand or def not on paper
On my skin magic happens and it develops after 3 or 4 hours on my neck.
From the bottle, it smells like a fancy burgundy ink would smell like.
When this macerates after a year, OMG watch out, and lock away your wives when dudes with this cologne show up, with a suit.
The secret is, once it macerates, put only one spray on the neck. Thats the european secret.
The minty note you seek, is called cardamom.
