Great video as always! What would be a good casual fragrance for this upcoming fall that isn't too sweet and is relatively new that you would recommend?
Some good fall fragrances that aren’t too sweet that are newer, check out: Code EDP, Ralphs club Parfum, gentleman edt intense, Gucci guilty Parfum, polo blue Parfum, Dior Homme sport 2021.
She didn't like my favorite one "scent of peace" it always put me in a good mood. Aventus cologne is pretty great though. Do you think London spice is worth the price tag?
@@blacklite911 with expensive fragrances sometimes your just paying for the name. So in order for me to spend that money it has to be an instant love, spark of joy. If it doesn’t have that, I am totally ok with liking the scent but not owning. As there are so many scents out there that will give you that instant spark of joy 🙌
Armani Code Absolu, Hero EDP, The Most Wanted. Absolu is the closest to it, just with a suede vibe. Prada black is still readily a available in stores and should be for the next few months. My local stores have full stock :)
Great video! And I like that you sprayed them 45 minutes before, so that she can judge them properly. I think the opening is not a very good indication of how a fragrance really smells. Plus, she's gorgeous 😁
Yeah I normally don’t but kept getting asked questions on the mass appealing ones and didn’t do enough summer videos to spread them out this year. So I figured I’d do an end of the summer fresh edition. Now I can just point to this video 😎
@@alejandrokp8456 none of these should be blind bought. Only buy niche if it sparks instant joy the second you smell it. You want that spark of joy. The most mass appealing ones here are Elysium, Sedley, and Aventus Cologne.
@@alextanguay5886 yeah they just don’t smell similar at all to me. They act completely different when you spray. The only thing similar to me is an east to wear fresh scent.
I tried Cedrat Boise I don't know why everyone saids it smells like Aventis never got that both are totally different to me never tried Roja before very curious now would love to check it out
Aventus cologne has a little more sauce To it while Elysium is a little cleaner and fresher. I personally wear Aventus cologne a little bit more but love both
Hacivat is weird for me, I personally don’t think it’s the best but it’s the one I can guarantee a stranger will approach me to tell me they love it. Grocery stores, target, restaurants - everywhere I go. After the opening all I get is oak moss but strangers love it.
Aventus cologne and sedley are top tier. I’d add HOS #4 to that list too 👌🏼. Never tried london spice, sounds like it would of been a spicy holiday scent like with cardamom, cinnamon, clove with tons of tonka/vanilla, toffee, dates, plum, butter cream and cognac. Give angels share a run for its money haha
I've owned a lot of fragrance and one thing I've noticed is that with women they generally like that simple, fresh not too complex fragrances. It's like an easy win with them. But with dudes they like those more complex, unique yet interesting fragrances.
I would love to see the girls reaction to LV Imagination! I think it has amazing longevity and is my favorite in my collection. I rarely see people talk about it but on german fragrance page it‘s rated the number one.
Great video saddle she didn't really like my 1 my favorite fragrance but not everyone like the same smell but she did like my other favorite fragrance. She is awesome
So interesting that she thought SoP was a cheap aventus cologne because people do consider it an aventus clone. She picked up on it right away. I agree I think SoP smells like a laundry detergent and aventus cologne smells awesome. It's personally my most complimented fragrance and I don't wear it that much.
Great video Jeff, Shantal’s initial impressions on these niche fragrances are spot on as someone who owns cedrat boise I can agree with her and I’m not mad or offended at all I don’t reach for it often as I would like it to imo the leather kills it for me Sedley is just amazing when she said sprite I definitely understood what she was saying it very uplifting and effervescent
100% a lot of people get upset about Cedrat Boise but it definitely has that quality to it. Someone in the live chat used the annoying “her nose is broken” saying when she said it smelled like an old man 🤨😅. That effervescent from Sedley is so nice. A fancy sprite soda for me!
Hurts my feelings she didn't like Cedrat Boise lol, but happy to see she liked London Spice. Thinking of a full bottle purchase after I finish my decant. Great job!
Same. It was too old school/mature on me. I do not think it’s a replacement for Aventus. Different vibes to me. CB is more buttoned up, specific. Aventus is more versatile and sexy
Those two plus Sedley. And I like Scent if peace for him as well. Honestly the only ones I don’t like in this video is Cedrat Boise and mixed on Hacivat.
I don’t have confirmation. But what I do have confirmation is that it’s easy to get and most stores are full stocked of it. So it won’t be leaving stores anytime soon. If it is gone, you have at least 6-12 months of it being in stores. 1 Million Lucky is still in stores and that’s been discontinued for a while.
@@Den_Hi I just don’t get that potent citrus musky vibe from AHS that I get from AC. AC much brighter and bold in comparison. I like both scents though ☺️
Too bad aventus’s longevity is piss now, the old batches were way better, ill pick up elysium for now compared to aventus if im going for niche or layton.
Aventus cologne is my girlfriend’s favourite scent on me, she also likes Cedrat Boise but I see why it’d smell like grandpa, it’s a leather in it, almost all girls hate leather scents
shantal is a beauty! another favorite guest of mine. as always, thanks for sharing jeff!
Thank you Ryan ☺️

Good stuff you two! I never knew about London Spice. Is it worth the price in your opinion?
I definitely think you should sample it first. It’s more gentleman signature. Next time you get something from me I’ll sample it for you
@@SoCalScents cool thanks! Just did a quick search, but I can't even find it being sold in canada
@@ColbyNye fragrancebuy has them but not sure if any store does.
Your content has gotten so much better over last year or so. Quick q if u don’t mind - I have explorer, how will Adventus cologne differ from it?
They don’t smell much alike but you could use them in same situations. AC is fresher of the 2
@@SoCalScents thank you. So I ran out and tried AC and hated it, completely different scent , too soft
She didn't like my favorite one "scent of peace" it always put me in a good mood. Aventus cologne is pretty great though. Do you think London spice is worth the price tag?
Definitely worth sampling. Price is always up to the person. Niche needs to give me a spark of happiness to invest in.
Idk man $300+ minimum. For that to me it has to be unique and great performance
@@blacklite911 with expensive fragrances sometimes your just paying for the name. So in order for me to spend that money it has to be an instant love, spark of joy. If it doesn’t have that, I am totally ok with liking the scent but not owning. As there are so many scents out there that will give you that instant spark of joy 🙌
Prada black is being discontinued. Would Givenchy edp or reserve prive be good alternatives? Or can you offer other suggestions?
Armani Code Absolu, Hero EDP, The Most Wanted. Absolu is the closest to it, just with a suede vibe. Prada black is still readily a available in stores and should be for the next few months. My local stores have full stock :)
Great video again! I also dig the end credits music:)
TH-cam audio library 🙌
Great video! And I like that you sprayed them 45 minutes before, so that she can judge them properly. I think the opening is not a very good indication of how a fragrance really smells. Plus, she's gorgeous 😁
We do the opening and drydown in every regular video :)
Exactly what I’m looking for. Niche freshies.
All will work in your weather too
I’m looking forward to it. I’m surprised cause you told me last time you don’t do full on niche fragrances only.
Yeah I normally don’t but kept getting asked questions on the mass appealing ones and didn’t do enough summer videos to spread them out this year. So I figured I’d do an end of the summer fresh edition. Now I can just point to this video 😎
@@SoCalScents can’t wait. Thanks Jeff.
Imo Aventus cologne, Sedley, scent of peace and Roja elysium all bangers 🔥🔥🔥
Do you think the intense cedrat boise better than the regular cedrat boise ?
Not really. They remind me of each other
@@SoCalScents do you think hacivat a better blind buy than cedrat boise ?
@@alejandrokp8456 none of these should be blind bought. Only buy niche if it sparks instant joy the second you smell it. You want that spark of joy. The most mass appealing ones here are Elysium, Sedley, and Aventus Cologne.
@@SoCalScents thanks
Great video. Cedrat boise with the hate makes me sad. Love that frsgrance.
She said she liked the nostalgia of it for her though
Wow she absolutely nailed Bond #9. I wish you had put some of the LV bangers in here.
Wicked video! Gotta check out that London spice..niche is hard to find in Toronto
Look on their website, I think they say what stores you can find them in
@@SoCalScents btw I totally disagree with people comparing AC to allure homme sport 😂
@@alextanguay5886 yeah they just don’t smell similar at all to me. They act completely different when you spray. The only thing similar to me is an east to wear fresh scent.
She actually did a great job
Have you smelt Patek Maison blue from the prisme collection ?
Never heard of it before. Not in stores near me in LA
Thanks for referring me here!
Welcome 🙏
Thanks Jeff. I enjoyed watching it.
Thank you for joining in 🙌
I tried Cedrat Boise I don't know why everyone saids it smells like Aventis never got that both are totally different to me never tried Roja before very curious now would love to check it out
Yeah I find them totally different as well
Great channel. My Question is I need a fresh banger, class and sexy one. I want performance. Which one you prefer, Elysium vs Aventus Cologne ?
Aventus cologne has a little more sauce
To it while Elysium is a little cleaner and fresher. I personally wear Aventus cologne a little bit more but love both
Hacivat is weird for me, I personally don’t think it’s the best but it’s the one I can guarantee a stranger will approach me to tell me they love it. Grocery stores, target, restaurants - everywhere I go. After the opening all I get is oak moss but strangers love it.
When I tried it I would like it, then I would hate it, then I would like it. Then really not like. The oak moss behaves so weirdly with this one.
Here’s a like and a comment to support. I’ll watch it when I get a chance 🥳
Than you mark! Appreciate it
Aventus cologne and sedley are top tier. I’d add HOS #4 to that list too 👌🏼. Never tried london spice, sounds like it would of been a spicy holiday scent like with cardamom, cinnamon, clove with tons of tonka/vanilla, toffee, dates, plum, butter cream and cognac.

Yeah the name makes it sound different than how it smells!

Can kind of maybe sprinkle it in, it’s hard doing those though as nobody really asks for them so not a lot of people search for them.
Really enjoy elysium and sedley!
Same 😊🙌
Just got my aventus from Costco in 💪🏼 first niche
Right on, enjoy it!!
Great video saddle she didn't really like my 1 my favorite fragrance but not everyone like the same smell but she did like my other favorite fragrance. She is awesome
Which was your number 1?
@@SoCalScents Cedrat Boise and Sedly
@@juandelacruzfraganciadelac1224 well she really dug Sedley!
@@SoCalScents yes she did 😁
So interesting that she thought SoP was a cheap aventus cologne because people do consider it an aventus clone. She picked up on it right away. I agree I think SoP smells like a laundry detergent and aventus cologne smells awesome. It's personally my most complimented fragrance and I don't wear it that much.
Aventus Cologne rocks!
Damn she had a whole new rating system... the scent itself vs the scent on a person. This couldnt be more true for MANY frags
Quite a few scents could fit into the “it’d be better as a candle 🕯 category” 😊
@@SoCalScents yuppppp
Jeff! Finally tested Elysium bought a decant today..bro I’m not part of the hype smells like crap 😵💫 Oceania however amazing
Roja Elysium Pour Homme Parfum is a blind buy!!! Does anyone here rock this?
Just the Parfum cologne version
Awesome content!!
Thank you Chad 🙌

I’ve been wearing it quite a bit lately. It’s pretty easy to wear and the mint is so nice
Her reaction to Cedrat Boise was my exact reaction. Smells kind of old man ish
I had to scrub it off me after 15 minutes the first time I ever sprayed it in the store
Same. It was too old school/mature on me. I do not think it’s a replacement for Aventus. Different vibes to me. CB is more buttoned up, specific. Aventus is more versatile and sexy
@@blacklite911 yeah I don’t think they are alike either. Anything with pineapple and people just say Aventus.
Crazy...this is the first time Ive seen other ppl feel the same way about Cedrat Boise as I do. Such an overhyped mediocre fragrance.
Everything that smells leathery is for grandpa
What are your favorite Fresh niche fragrances? Mine are probably Aventus Cologne & Elysium.
Those two plus Sedley. And I like Scent if peace for him as well. Honestly the only ones I don’t like in this video is Cedrat Boise and mixed on Hacivat.
Enjoyed the video.
Thank you Salvador
nothin to do with the vid but is prada black confirmed to be discontinued? chaos has a vid sayin it is
I don’t have confirmation. But what I do have confirmation is that it’s easy to get and most stores are full stocked of it. So it won’t be leaving stores anytime soon. If it is gone, you have at least 6-12 months of it being in stores. 1 Million Lucky is still in stores and that’s been discontinued for a while.
@@SoCalScents i actually cant find it in stores in my city atm but i can find code absolu everywhere
@@OnAeeir check the department stores online shop. Like Macys, Bloomingdales or nordstroms. Sephora too. They have plenty of stock :)
Hacivat is a more mature Aventus. Doesn't smell like an essential oil.
That’s just how it came off to her. I get an oak moss pineapple myself 🍍
I’ve been thinking about picking up Aventus Cologne, but the price has increased quite a bit 😬
Yeah it’s in that 220-240 online price. It used to be 200-220. See if Venba has a tester of it
You can just buy allure homme sport or Versace pour homme
@@Den_Hi I think they are super different from Aventus Cologne. I like all 3 but don’t find them much alike in how they wear
@@SoCalScents for me Aventus cologne it's variation of Chanel Allure Sport.
@@Den_Hi I just don’t get that potent citrus musky vibe from AHS that I get from AC. AC much brighter and bold in comparison. I like both scents though ☺️
just bought the new CK Eternity Summer Daze at my local burlington for 25$ 100ml…..☀️☀️☀️☀️
Awesome deal!
so cal so cal so cal so cal so cal !!!!!
Thank you Felix
Love sedley
Same, it’s my favorite from PDM
Too bad aventus’s longevity is piss now, the old batches were way better, ill pick up elysium for now compared to aventus if im going for niche or layton.
Elysium doesn’t smell anything like Aventus though. Still a good scent
@@SoCalScents yeah for sure, didnt mean to compare them by any means.
This video should have been called fragrances that smell similar to Aventus the only 2 that didn't were Sedley and London oud.
Elysium doesn’t smell like Aventus either. Not all pineapple fragrances smell like Aventus 😉
I still wait for the day smelling cedrat boise on a grandpa 😂
😂😅
I can think of one cologne thats giving me "Sprite" vibes, its 3 AM
Gin and tonic from it!
@@SoCalScents And the sprayer, award winning!!!
@@bearclaws2934 best sprayer ever!
Shantal 😍
❤️🙌
Is that Chantal?
Yep! Shantal is tomorrows guest 🤗
Knew she was gonna like Aventus cologne lol
Yeah she loves that style!
Aventus cologne is my girlfriend’s favourite scent on me, she also likes Cedrat Boise but I see why it’d smell like grandpa, it’s a leather in it, almost all girls hate leather scents
Aventus Cologne just pulls in positive attention 🙌
hacivat - diffuser 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Cedrate Boise, old man smell 😂😂 not even close
