Good to see you back! I got 40 Knots last year based on your recommendation and fell in love. Just got in Loewe 7 Colbalt and I think you've done it again. Got Vibrato for a steal and I cannot wait. 🔥
My GF surprised me with a fat bottle of Bleu de Chanel Parfum, which I still think is the best all-year fragrance of all. It’s just safe and iconic. I also enjoy 1 Milion Parfum, or 4711 when I carry a small bottle around.
Le Beau Le Parfum and Eau Givrée are probably 2 of my favorite summer fragrances. Le Beau Le Parfum being more of an evening scent, and Eau Givrée a fresh day time scent with surprisingly good longevity. Two absolute bangers.
Love perseus so dam good! Love all pdm freshie. Me personally greenley so good it doesn't smell like no shampoo to me. 1819 by roja is a dam good one for summer
Definitely some awesome suggestions in this video: I love Percival, and absolutely agree that it's the best out of PDM's fresh fragrances, despite it's mass-appealing nature. Every time you talk about 40 Knots, I honestly feel a little embarrassed I still haven't sampled it yet; I absolutely have to fix that soon. I can't stop spraying the bottle of Naxos I have, but really should add a salty, marine fragrance to the collection, and I fully trust Xerjoff's quality. It was also awesome to see you mention Kajal's Aican! I've sampled Faris by Kajal, and while I loved it, I thought it smelled a bit too similar to Percival, and thought it would be redundant to own both. Although, I would highly recommend that anyone try that if they don't own Percival, or don't want to pay PDM's insane prices (especially for a fresh fragrance). I found it has extremely good longevity and projection as well, which, so does Percival, in my opinion. I still want to try Kajal's Lamar, which would likely fit in this list, too. Very good to see you're feeling better, Omar! Thank you for another quality video!
I found Kenzo Pour Homme EDT intense to be very long lasting, the note breakdown looked somewhat similar to Xerjoff 40 knotts. I think you should try. 😀
As well as the obvious D&G Light Blue Intense and Orto Parisi Megamere my beast mode frshies are Humboldt by Fueguia 1833, a stunning 14+ hour blast of Tangerine and Pasion Fruit, Juniper Sling by Penhaligons a lively Gin and Tonic scent that lasts a good 12 plus hours on me
Here we go, Kajal Aican already stopping being a hidden gem? Couldn't agree more with you on the Aican (already bought a full bottle). I would love to agree with you on Sospiro Vibrato, but on my skin I get more of the white florals and it smells really clean, almost detergent or clean sheets like. But Aican is such a beautiful spring/summer evening/holiday, it really needs to be sampled at least.
Omar I recently acquired a bottle Turquoise water for the house of Precious liquids. The performance is insane and the scent it amazing. The house has quite a few really good fragrances like Tobacco Royal and blue agave. I hope one day you get a discovery set and review the house. I don’t think you’d be disappointed
I'm always thanking you for your recommendations. You turned me on to 40 Knots and AdP Colonia Essenza (which is absolutely amazing!. One I would add to your list is Xerjoff Decas. It has Xerjoff longevity and is a wonderful fragrance. In fact I'm wearing it right now in pretty high Ohio heat.
Hello Omar! If you like Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza, let me recommend you to try Colonia Intensa from the same house. I hope you like it. See you soon!
Welcome Back Omar! I realized you weren't posting, and realized the ridiculous expectations we put on content creators. Everyone needs a day off! 2) I have given up on Summer Scents, I'm in NYC and looking forward to the Fall. What I have is what I have. I would like to see a "Fall Fragrances worth saving up for now" list. I always load up at least one-two seasons in advance. I am saving up for: Montale's Arabian Tonka (just bought) Nishane Nefs (Bought) Ormonde Jayne Montobaco Intensivo Penhaligon's Sartorial Finishing my "The One" Collection (Mysterious and Royal Night) Alexandria II (Maybe redundant with Nefs).
It's funny how people say PDM greenly smells synthetic. What exactly does smelling synthetic mean? Does it mean smelling harsh or unnatural? Because greenly to me smells like guava leaves. Guava leave have this sharp smell to them and that what the opening to me smells like. lol
I know its an odd ball but could you make a video for fragrances that fit body styles/ personas? For example a cologne that fits slim people(some colognes feel too "big" for my body type and ive found that fresh scents suit me best and is what ive naturally went to for years)
views on Aoud Lemon mint - I own it but its is not in my current rotation purely cos I have so many others to go through such as using Maahir legacy instead of sedley or the ADGs (profumo and profondo)
I wanted to really love Ganymede. On paper it is a gorgeous scent esp when you as mentioned dont bring your nose to it, but waft it. But on skin or at least on my skin it smells like when you open a magazine or open an old silver jewelry box or at dental office waiting room. That cold air, metallic, paper bib and vinyl furniture nitrile glove smell. The projection is absolute an assault uppercut to everyone around you.
I would love to get some of these but for some reason, summer fragrances just never smell good on my skin after settling on my skin :(. Or at least I haven't found one that smells good on me yet.

Random question here. I’m currently deciding on my next iris fragrance but I’m not sure which would be best. Which of the following would y’all choose if you could only have one, and why? - 1. Givenchy reserve privee 2. Prada lhomme intense 3. Valentino uomo intense - Btw, the only iris cologne I have atm is jpg le male le parfum and it’s a 10/10 imo
Givenchy reserve privee is boozy and sexy which i recommend , its for nights, prada lhomme is very floral ?? but clean and much more pleasing and easy on the nose, i have not smelled the last one
Eh, I like Le Beau Le Parfum, but not much else w/ iris. I dunno about diving into iris fragrances without sampling any of them first before you buy. Bvlgari Man in Black is a good starter iris fragrance, great for layering. Try sampling a bunch of Givenchy fragrances to see if you even like iris/powdery scents.
@@joshuat005yea you’re spot on. It’s my first choice atm mainly bc I haven’t tested the other two but the problem is that I’ve heard good things about Prada intense & Valentino intense 💆🏽♂️💆🏽♂️ thanks for your input 💯
@@jeffhoward9208I forsure like iris/powdery scents based off my le male le parfum. But, not tooooo powdery like Dior homme intense/parfum. Good mention with the Bvlgari however, I’ve heard/read that it has a “grown up” scent to it so I wouldn’t want that type of iris style. And I’ve tested the entire Givenchy line already and my fav is reserve privee. Thanks for your input 💯
@@ogdcj Bvlgari Man in Black is pretty much just tobacco, leather, and iris. And while it can be really strong if you spray a lot, it doesn't have particularly good longevity, so it's def best layered with other fragrances, especially spicy/caramel gourmand fall fragrances.
@@SchoolOfScent thank you. I thought about getting Hermès L'Ombre des Merveilles but never really pulled the trigger. I'm looking for calming tea scents
Happy to see Perseus getting a recommendation here, its not a mind-blowing scent but its extremely nice and people love it, ive got more compliments in the last week wearing this than any other fragrance ive worn in the last 6 months
Simple, mainstream easy to like fragrances, not always consistent in being lost lasting, the original uomo line performs well, more iris focused, while the 'born in roma' line is more fruit note focused. Most of the fragrances can be worn 'year round'.
@SchoolofScent thanks for the reply brother. I'm currently looking at adding one to my collection. Also if your interested, I'd love to share my fragrance collection with you for a review on your channel. Thanks
Hi Omar, I've always been watching your videos and then buy accordingly. Thank you very much.. Just had a question, I am planning to buy Acqua colonia essenza, can you tell me if it has loud projection? Longevity roughly 12-15 hrs? I had my doubts since it was EDC.
@@zeeshankhan-gz3gx coming from a male that bought a full bottle of aican, which came with a lamar sample. to me, lamar is leaning feminine rather heavily on my skin (I get lipstick smell, probably from the rose). aican is juicier, fruitier and I would say is unisex, maybe leaning masculine but ever so slightly.

@@santidbe400You can pretty much rock any fragrance, at any season, as long as you're confident enough, and as long as you don't go for many sprays.
@@santidbe400 it works as a summer evening fragrance. That coconut/iris/cypress drydown is 🔥🔥🔥
Glad you’re on the mend Omar! Gotta love Paradise Garden for these hot summer days!
Le Beau PG performes insane on my skin. Can smell on my skin the next day.
Beach Hut Man, Le Beau Le Parfum, and Eau Givree are my go to summer scents right now. Gotta try some Xerjoff samples next season!
Ganymede is a 10/10 fragrance in my books. It may not be as versatile but it is a masterpiece
Been 6 days and was already missing your vids bro. Glad you're back to giving us amazing content 🔥

Omar, I was wondering where you went, I'm glad you're doing better. Thank you for providing inspiration on fragrances from your videos.

PDM Galloway always getting slept on 🥲 my favorite PDM summer fragrance along with Percival
Uniquee luxury akdeniz and zengii 10/10s for me
