The first day I wore this I pulled compliments, I LOVE IT, is it ground breaking? No, is it daring? No, does it smell great and perform well? Yes, do the ladies like it? Yes, do the dudes like it? Yes, this can work for all seasons, BUT... its a king for summer, some people online don't like it because its too mass appealing maybe, but the quality of this scent is fantastic, designer appeal with niche quality.
Thank u i was debating on pulling the trigger on this one from this coming summer much appreciated 👍👍
You always have to be careful with fragrance reviewers because, like wine or film connoisseurs they often just can't bring themselves to recommend mass appealing stuff, which is the very thing 90 per cent of people are looking for in a fragrance. Taking reviewers word as gospel had me doing absurd things like buying Bentley for Men Intense when looking for my signature - complete wrong direction.
@@bradyh79 That's a fact, made the same decision a while ago! 💪🏻
Is it better than percival ?
@@TurtlemilkSomeone already told you no, *you fool* 😢
Awesome frag. Got a few compliments upon the first wear. Great scent. BTW keep up the great reviews. 👍🏼😎
I purchased, this frag. After sampling and the wearing this for a relatives wedding. In the summer and I received several great compliments. And was asked what frag I was wearing. I bought it thereafter 😏 great review!
I was sampeling some fresh fragrances to see what to buy for my next tropical vacation, I might end up picking up this one
Scored this and Layton with the PDM same you posted off of Jim’s shop and this stuff smells amazing!
These double uploads a day are awesome!
Perfect for the summer... love it !!
Ash, very insightful nuanced accurate review.
You are great !!!!!! Thank you for your reviews!
One of my favorites, but I’ve only smelled it from a PDM sample set. Regardless, all 1.5Oz of that little blue liquid pull in so many compliments, I may have to buy a whole bottle!
Love this thing, didn’t know there was a reformulation! This year was the first time I smelled it, so maybe I smelled the new one?
Love your video man always honest and non biased.
I love this in the summer. I Wear it more than Percival & Greenley. But I do prefer some of their other “cold weather” fragrances more. Layton, Herod, & Carlisle all are better IMO.
Am pleased with Sedley - going for Layton next!
I loved sedley I bought it for my husband to gift valentines day. It's a nice fresh scent different than other blue fragrances like chanel blue to me. The lemon note is amazing.
Love the opening on Sedley. BUT, on the dry down, it's like 90% similar to Boss Bottled Infinite and you'll get the same kind of vibe in my opinion.
Scent-wise this is my favorite freshie of theirs but Percival and Galloway just perform exponentially better on me. If Sedley had that type of performance it would be an all-time favorite for me.
How many hours do you get out of it?
I have Layton, Carlisle, Herod and Oajan.. I have a bottle of the Sedley coming in the mail right now. Excited now that summer is on the way. Parfum De Marly, TomFord, and Tommy Bahama are my 3 favorite brands of cologne.
Hopefully, Ash will do another review for Greenley :)
This was my 2nd niche purchase after cedrat. Love it! 👌
Edit: also, I picked this up on fragrancebuy at around $117 for a 2.5 ml. At that price I couldn't pass it up!!
When fragrance buy let you use coupon’s for pdm 😂
Uffffff that is a lot of money. I think it will be more discounted one day........🤔🥺
@@EDME86yeah but it’s a $250 bottle, that’s like 50% off
Hey! This is also my second niche after cedrat boise
Very Nice!! I respect this review
My experience was the opposite of yours. I wanted Sedley ever since I got my hands on a 2ml decant. After a few months, got a 125ml bottle. And then... I came to realize that the lavender is what dominates this composition through the life of the fragrance. Yes, mint is there at the beginning and I liked it... Until I discovered the mint on Xerjoff's Rennaisance. After that, I couldn't like it as much as before. That does not mean that I dislike Sedley. It just so happens that there are others now that I like better.
I personally don't dislike it but as people say, parfums de marly is better known for the heavier scents and that's also what im purchasing from them... for the freshies i've just settled for bleu de chanel (still one of my favorite day to day scents after trying so many other fragrances), prada l'homme as a soapy/powdery scent and guerlain l'homme ideal cool/cologne for the really warm days... that's why i dont really care for sedley which is also more expensive than the aforementioned scents...
I will be reaching for this on summer nights!
Hey Ash, great descriptions ! I bought the 75 ml and glad I only bought the smaller version. The price vs. performance just isn't there for me. For the price I want to smell something stronger like Percival which I and women love on me.
To me percival and sedley has the same performance. But both are weak.
@@prasartpongpet but they say percival is beast mode
Percival definitely isn’t weak! I could smell it all day, and still smell it the next day on my skin!
I came around on the sample. It’s a dope fragrance IMO
Don’t hate - appreciate! It’s grown on me to. Nearly finished my decant and still debating if it’s fbw…
Thank you! Will this smell like Mint the entire time. Looking for a Mint scent every time I smell my wrist. Thank you!
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
Smells amazing and last a long time. Everytime I wear it I get multiple compliments
Did you purchase it at retail or from a discounter? Out of curiosity, is "Sedley" printed on the bottom label of the bottle?
Picking up a bottle of this love their Carlisle
Just wore this one yesterday. Have only tried Percival and Sedley out of the warmer weather specific fragrances from PdM, but to me, Sedley is by far the better of the two. It just seems much more refreshing and pleasant, also got about 6-7 hours on my skin. Sedley kinda gives me an Aqua di Gio meets Bleu de Chanel vibe with the citrusy aquatic smell, just wish it was more in that price range also
Adg + BdC is quite right way for someone to make this beauty understand!
Does it smell like sprite
Only niche snob hate on blue fragrances
Great video
Hey Ash, Can you do a review of PDM Greenly. I don't really hear many Frag Peeps mentioned it. Tks
It’s alright to me. If I’m choosing a fresh from them I am going with Galloway or Percival. But for the price I’m paying for this house I always go with the non-fresh as I think they excel in the other categories
I’ll have to get some samples of some of the more talked about PDMs as I still haven’t tried any of them.
When I first smelled sedley, I didn’t appreciate it because I was new into collecting. I smelled it again months later and wow I was blown away. It’s mass appealing yet unique and elegant smelling(I don’t think anything smells like it in the market rn and I see no resemblance to HB infinite 👎). It’s such a rich and refreshing scent that’s perfect for the hot California summer! And it lasts an eternity. How can you hate on this?
It is strongly reminiscent of Creed Erolfa. They just took the Creed Erolfa DNA and added a big dose of ambroxan and called it their own.
@@winnienguyen4420I mean, Erolfa has that melon note and Sedley offers some lavender and musk below the citrus that Erolfa doesn’t have
I came back to this video because I "accidentally" layered this with Cartier l'envol edp.... mesmerizing!
I have an original release bottle, I think it has macerated and the longevity rivals that of Sauvage on my skin.
I can’t complain I got sedley 100ml for 180 dollars at Jomashop what a steal 🤘🏻
I like Sedly… Percival and Galloway are the summer must haves
My wallet would hate me
But ya forgot Greeley !! Have you tried it? ?
@@sipandsniff1744 Greenly is not bad at all. Smelled it but not tried it out
@@Nemo0610 just got Sedley the other day. I like it quite well, but still not as much as Greeley. I’m sure I’ll feel different after some more time.,💯🔥
My question is KryptoMint Mugler or Sedley for the Mint? I know they are different. If you must make a choice. Thank you again.
I do like both Sedley and Percival for an easy to wear summer scent. If I want something more unique I wear Galloway.
What’s better sedley or percival ?
@@Turtlemilk Sedley is more unique. Percival is often compared to A&F Fierce and Mont Blanc Legend.
I agree with Sedley, I like it’s freshness despite it not being super original.
Dude you’re everywhere
I like PDMs fresh offerings, sedly, percival, and Galloway are all solid releases.
Between sedly and percival which do you prefer? I have percival and I don’t care for it all that much.
Galloway is one of my favorites for summer. I haven't smelled Sedly.
@@xglichersxd7235
I didn't like Percival either.
@@slkric1724 I wanted to try Galloway but I hear it’s a more “mature” scent. I’m a younger guy
@@xglichersxd7235
I'm 28... It's a very fresh scent. I get a ton of compliments when I wear it. I think you should get a sample and check it out. I think you will like it.
This is one I just grab and sniff the bottle. I have so many fragrances this doesn’t get much wear. Plus I’m mostly at work and that’s too costly to wear there. Overall, get you some. Straight 🔥
I would like know what is different between niess fragrances and blue type or Collone
Simply back to basics.
It would be great education 👍
Great video Ash! Sedley is really nice, but I feel for the money you pay (even at discounters), there are better (and much cheaper) options. Be well Ash! 👍
What would be those options?
@@e.r9111 Not exact clones, but you can try Lacoste Blanc, Versace Pour Homme, Mont Blanc Legend Spirit, Azzaro Chrome Aqua, and Nautica Voyage if you're looking for some affordable summer fragrances.
@@leandroalmonte5620 those are some great recommendations man! Thanks!
If I buy from FragranceX will it be the new version?
I absolutely love PDM Sedley💯
smells exactly like Dior Homme Sport to me
Smells like Creed Erolfa to me
@@vic.1234 Not even close IMO
@@austinzp1877 Exactly, this jas nothing to do with DHS
"A grower....and a show-er". I think PDM should pick that up as the official description of the fragrance.
Love Sedley. My kind of scent.
So I just got a travel size of post 2020 sedley. Man. It's minty and smells like a mosquito candle for awhile. After about 20 minutes though that citronella smell dies down and it really smells clean and fresh
@gentscents is pdm sedley worth the money?
I had the exact same reaction the first time I wore it. And the second time. And the third time. And the forth..... Went through 4 samples (2 old, 2 new) and it just falls flat on me every time in the drydown. I like the mint, but the rest is just meh. I'll pay for the Zara clone though. When it comes out. Cause let's be honest, it's gonna.
Really like this scent! Though I like Darley a bit better
Does it say profondo lights on the note breakdown ?
Try the inspired expression Leedys from Dua. I like it even more.
Literally my favourite summer fragrance ever, so underrated
How and why is it your favorite? My bottle comes in on Saturday!
@@taras_fit it’s addicting especially if you like mint and aquatic type fragrances, it goes perfect for a rainy day
I swear it's inspired by Creed Erolfa. The resemblance is uncanny. It does smell gorgeous though.
@@winnienguyen4420 I really want to try that one
@@WeJammin it smells gorgeous, salty realistic aquatic that's very similar to it's successor, Milliseme Imperial, but not as fruity.
I see that it can be too cloying during high heat days.....what u think
Had a decant of the original formulation…loved it. Softer. Bought a bottle without knowing it was reformulated. I think it still smells great, but that fuzzy Ambroxen note does make it a bit more sharp.
I’m getting 10ml of Sedley next month from LUXSB 💪🏻💪🏻
In my top 3 most complimented
Hi Ash. Are you still wanting people to send pictures of their collections to you? If so, how can I do that? I have amassed a very humble connection over the past year since I got into this. I would like to share it and see what you think. Thanks, and keep up with the great content!
So the big Question, is Greenley a Green Irish Tweed 'clone'??
I have 005903 and wonder from what year is it? Longevity is really solid. But projection is pretty weak. But I freaking love the smell. İt's very addicting. It was just as you describe, first time meh. 2nd time ok. 3rd time not bad. And now I wanna wear it all the time.
Did you purchase it at retail or from a discounter? Out of curiosity, is "Sedley" printed on the bottom label of the bottle?
How is the percent of alcohol on this one Is down on the box :-)
Summertime signature status. Love that the fragheads have their own thoughts about it so they won’t also be wearing it.
never clicked on a video so fast
What’s better sedley or percival
@@Turtlemilk sedley
What's the Profondo Light text in the notes breakdown about? 😁
Did you ever get the answer? Is Profondo lights similar to Sedley?
@@timyoung4039 yes it’s similar
Similar experience here.
Not my fave from the house but after 2-3 sampling (I think I sampled the original version first) it didn’t wow me nor interest me too much. I kept hearing about it everywhere so I picked up another sample which I enjoyed wearing more (newer formulation I believe).
I received a compliment as well, and I enjoyed wearing it on occasions as well do I began looking around for a discounted 125ml bottle, which I eventually found and bought.
Now I use this and Percival depending on what mood I am in, aromatic fresh or woody musky fresh.
Both are solid, but I wouldn’t pay anywhere near the $345 retail price for it.
For $200 or below, not bad.
Did anybody else notice when he brought up the opening note breakdown it said “Profondo Lights?”
Not sure if its just me but PDM Sedley and D&G pour homme smell almost similar, not a one to one but quite similar or in the same direction. Anyone think the same or have any imput on this ?
how do you know when your batch is from?
Does anyone know how to tell if you have the old or new formulation of Sedley? I bought a bottle and I'm very disappointed in the performance. At best I can get 4 hours off my skin and anything after that it sits very close to my skin.
Love it
Very nice but it doesn’t project for a long time, becomes a skin scent after 30 minutes, but you can smell it for 4-5 hours if you put your nose on the skin.
Was it reformulated , or left to sit and macerate ? I’ve heard both ,.. Either way GREAT FRAG!!! GREAT VIDEO …as ALWAYS Sir
All Pdm was reformulated in 2020 due to a EU ban on some ingredient. Sadly the oil content decreased. I think they might have used more ambroxen in Sedley to keep the performance
@@antoniosmith197it wasn’t reformulated..
I totally ripped on the 2019 batch… got the 2020 batch.. still not loving it. Greenley though..
What’s better sedley or percival
@@Turtlemilk greenley
It’s an $$$ changeup - nice in the heat and humidity of the American South, a bit too 🧼 for everyday for me.
I’ve got a sample of Sedley, prefer Galloway tbh
Wanted to live this but it did not last; maybe 3 hours. Anyone know of a similar longer lasting scent?
Great perfume,, aroma from heaven
Cashmere in a men's scent it a little unusual. I kinda wanna smell it.
Sedley is fire 🔥🔥🔥
How can I know that I am buying a 2020+ batch?
Anybody else get Irish Spring soap vibes on the opening? That's all I can smell! Once it dries down it's pretty nice but... man, that soap smell is a little pungent in the opening.
I snagged a 75ml at $100 and for that... I can live with myself, and its really growing on me now that summer is here. But if I'd paid full price, I would've been feeling a bit underwhelmed especially regarding the price value.
Fake bottle
@@Turtlemilk It was straight from Bloomingdales, and it's real... but, it just didn't seem to have the typical PDM lasting power.
Seidley or greenley?
How I know the year of my batch ?
Hey ash great review man! I really want to pull the trigger on this. I’ve had a sample which was a 2019 batch which didn’t last at all. Is the 2020 reformulation much better in performance before I pull the trigger? 🤣 any help would be appreciated! 🙏🏼
According to Redolessence who spoke to someone at PDM. They said that there was no reformulation. The 2020 batches were just allowed to macerate for longer.
So I recently bought this one but I think I got a pre reformulation bottle is there anything I can do ??? I did buy from Nordstrom
Out of curiosity, is "Sedley" printed on the bottom label of the bottle?
I find it very similar to Greenly.
Why did it say profundo lights during the note breakdown
Is it better then BDC edp are parfum?
I only have and only know Layton
I like it
I wore this and some kid made a comment that it smelt like axe🤢 I don’t think I’ve ever been more offended.
😂
I don't like Sedley too much. My plan, at the moment, is to use Percival instead. I may change my mind and use somthing else.
You lucky duck! I ordered my Sedley a month ago here in Germany. And what do you know, sadly my Sedley has the old formulation :(. Batch code analysis says Feb 2020, but it's the 2019 formulation. How can I tell? Well the performance is just dreadful.... Also I heard the new formulation uses an unpressurized sprayer (this is true for my Percival and Galloway), but I have a pressurized sprayer.
I love the scent though. And I didn't at first. It's like you mentioned as well: At first I thought it was just a boring mass appealing scent, but I really grew to appreciate it a lot!
To be honest I have the 2020 bottle and the performance isn’t that great
@@Kadaf1 and @Skyte Did you purchase it at retail or from a discounter? Out of curiosity, is "Sedley" printed on the bottom label of the bottle?
Can you share the batch code bro? Because i too have the feb 2020 bottle with the pressurised sprayer. I just wanna know if I got the reformulated version tbh so i can find peace :D my batch is 009902
@@peterrusev4643 This bottle is also 009902 with the pressurized sprayer. It's almost empty now since I used it so much and I just got a new one a couple of days ago. The new bottle has an unpressurized sprayer and the batch code is 2021251. Despite the first 4 digits it's apparently from 2022 and it does have noticably better performance but nothing crazy.
@@trueskyte got it, thanks for the reply. One more question tho, because i am thinking of returning it and ordering the new batch from the PdM website. Do you personally think it is worth to do so, i mean is the difference in performance that big?
How can I differentiate which batch is the old batch and which is the new batch?
@Max Solo Real Estate well my batch is from February 2020 (009902) but it has the pressurised sprayer. You got any idea if mine is the new or old batch?
