- Can a clone fragrance be better than the original?
In this deep dive investigation I am comparing Creed to Armaf. Can a fragrance that costs a fraction of the price of the original be better? Can you buy a cheap fragrance and still get the same or better quality than a much more expensive version?

Would you like to see more content like this or should I stick to the endless list videos?
This type of vids are perfection, i know they take alot of time to put out but its so worth it!
@@NazgulfromLOTR appreciate that!
Does the pope do something in the woods that should probably not be bottled?
If you can manage this level of production quality with any frequency, ABSOLUTELY! The everything about this one from scripting to post is strikingly good.
I'm greedy so both lol.
Brilliant vid as usual, Chris!
You are absolutely the king of production in the community.
Thanks man!
You went from one of my fav frag reviewer channels to “THE fragrance movie review channel.” Awesome production and editing work! Bravo!!!🎉
Wow, thank you!
I tend to disagree. Quality of milestone is shockingly good for the price!
It's shit. Armaf is the shittiest on quality when it comes to clone brands, especially for the price. They sell purely on hype because of the Club de Nuit name popularity. You can find much better quality from UAE houses if you just dig deeper than just youtube.
CLONES ARE PERFECT FOR DAILY USE... I TRIED ALL "AVENTUS/LAYTON CLONES... BUT NONE HAS SAME QUALITY AS THE OG🙄👍🔥🔥🔥
Milestone smells disgusting
Smells like curry
And even after I left it for a month and went back to it, it smelled 💩 still
Sold it on eBay😂
@@mr_5htmanwhere is the better clone found for this one then? In your opinion
@@ESPARTAN-ci7de is that because they are 1/10 the price or you just convinced yourself your above them?
My experience with millestone when i wear it is not that enjoyable but when i smelled it on another guy it was amazing. It gave such expensive rich man on a yacht vibes. Really strong performance too. He was wearing it in winter.
Golden Shower had me spitting out my beer 😂😂😂😂
aha...ep 1 silver mountain water vs sillage
ep 2 millesime imperial vs milestone
ep 3 green irish tweed vs tres nuit ??
ep 4 bleu de chanel vs cdn iconic blue??
ep 5 pdm layton vs detour noir
This. Is. Hilarious. 😂
And a wonderful fragrance 🤌
too much acid bro lolol
As for creed as a house, i hear a lot of people complain about creed's fragrances, that they are weaker and have no performance. Now i dont know what it used to be, but i got Aventus 2021 and 2022 batches, green irish tweed 2021 batch, creed viking 2018 batch and just bought a new batch of virgin island water. I kid you not, they all last on me for a whole day. From 7 am in the morning before work and till around 5-7 pm depends on the day. Now projection is a different story, they are not strong at projection. But longevity as itself? No issues at all.
This video is obscene
He should get to the point.
@@PBA8find happiness
@Alritealritealrite Yeah, I was trying, but unfortunately, this video didn't do it for me.
@@PBA8 Yeah, you should probably try to find happiness through a hobby or doing something meaningful.
@@Alritealritealrite thank you for the advice
Fragmental production present🎬...well done Sir,good Job👏👏👏
Just got Milestone yesterday, I honestly don't get any harshness in the opening at all. Maybe that was an old formulation.
Yet another piss take Chris. Fecking love em..BTW Milestone is way better than Millesime Imperial for both Performance and longevity...
Millesime Imperial is my personal favorite fragrance of all time. Such a shame it doesn't last enough :/
Mines VIW & it’s lasts 30 min max
Wow.. you made this episode like a documentary… solid episode (as usual) 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@FRAGMENTAL You really got talent and personality for this. You should work in the media industry: television, movies, etc. 👍
That's why I like watching him and the fragrance Apprentice.
This videos is GOLD. Literally
Nice 👌🏻
Honestly I love these comedy videos. Is Creed Good was another favorite
CLONES ARE PERFECT FOR DAILY USE.... BUT CLONES WILL NEVER BE THE SAME AS OG IN TERM OF QUALITY🙄👍🔥🔥🔥
Woah, what a great production! You really stand out from the other, boring reviewers. Keep up the good work!
This video is a fu**ing masterpiece ! 🤟 Congrats ! 😀
Glad you liked it!
David Tennant reviewing fragrances? Subbed
Awesome video Chris, appreciate all your hard work!
Thanks man!
Another fantastic video, as always! And quite fitting that I wore Armaf Milestone today.
This guy is the man😎
It's crazy I just got my decant of Millesime Imperial today and smelt it for the first time and then went back to your old video comparing the two to see if I should get the full bottle and here you are putting this video out. Are you the NSA spying on everyone Chris?
Also from personal experience I have not found a single 'cheaper' clone that is better than the original in terms of actual scent profile. The only one I can think of is Godolphin being better than Tuscan Leather but the others always have such a synthetic, harsh smell to them that is very off putting. MI is incredibly synthetic though so maybe this is the one time you can make an exception!
EDIT: "Your fruit killing skills are remarkable" - Gaz
Haha yeah got spy’s everywhere 😉
MI6, not NSA
How can MI be synthetic if it opens with citrus and not alcohol just like most synthetic fragrances
@@MansaMusa-v5q Every fragrance has alcohol in it and I don't get any citrus in the opening personally. I get a lot of fruity notes that smell mostly of melons to me. It's hard to pick out which type of fruit it is exactly (a lot of people say watermelon but the perfumer confirmed there is none whatsoever in it) and that's usually a telltale sign it's mostly synthetics in there.
@@shahzebnasir4692wait…Pierre Bourdon confirmed there are no citrics in the MI formulation? Would love to know which is your source
Milestone smells like Creed Mil Imp when it first came out
Milestone is terrible don’t buy it people need to stop lying about it it’s utter garbage,Creed is superior still to this day and the performance of the both is light neither are big performance but you are buying the beautiful scent of the Creed and not the fly spray backbone of the amaf it’s so cheap for a good reason and that is it’s shite and unwearable shite 😂 TH-cam reviewers lie and create hype for utter shite so you’ll buy it and then they get paid
This has been my experience with clones. I rather buy the real thing at discounter even it it has poor performance than smell cheapo toxic-smelling chemicals on me all day.
Phil McCraken is good old one. Another couple that come to mind are Wayne King and Ivor Biggin. Very good clip today, with some nice footage and editing! :0)
Perhaps the most British fragrance review video of them all. Which is a good thing. But for some, maybe not 😂
Yes not everyone will feel it!
This video is soooo well made! Chris you've outdone yourself!
Also Jesus Christ at that horseradish image you used 🤣🤣🤣🤣
🙊
It was; how shall we say…a wee bit “rude”
Wow...just wow. So good Chris. Awesome footage and the content was extremely well written. Congrats.
Thank you brother. Probably not worth the effort that went in but I had a lotta fun!
I had the unwearable curried cucumber 🥒 opening of Milestone(many people binned their bottles).... I sprayed 1/4 of the bottle and left it in sunlight shaking it daily for a week. Totally different scent now. Absolutely powerhouse MI now.
Nice!
Not done with the video yet but so far it’s great man!
Thank you 🙏🏻
Millstone is good and lasts better then the original for a fraction and millisime is amazing just weak
*Disclaimer* No Watermelons were harmed during the making of this video......
Great vid as usual Chris....❤
"Golden showers" FFS man!!!😂😂😂
I wish that were true!
Hilarious video, great work!!!
Dang it! I'm part of the cause of global warming. I need to stop wearing fragrances that are described at 'fire'.
This was great! Way to do some unique content and great jokes! Mix this in with lists, reactions, and all the other fun stuff you do.
That’s the plan 👍🏻
I bought milestone and i hate it ive never smelled MI but milestone just smells too feminine
Global warming must indeed be the cause 😂
Top quality video mate the humour review is amazing
Pierre Bourdon designed Millesime Imperial not Olivier. And Armaf’s Milestone definitely smells noticeably different. I own both
Armaf Milestone can be worn any season. Scent trail explosion. Projection 6ft-8ft. Scent trail 10ft-20ft. This fragrance is a Golden Gem Cheapie Banger.
Will never buy a copy or clone
@@MansaMusa-v5qa “clone”, $30, 8 hours, VS >$250 for 2 hours lol. Just tell people it’s Creed when they actually smell it now
Best video ever
Probably I'm the only one going to say this, but the constant jokes has me fast forwarding. I just wanted to hear about the fragrance, with a chuckle or two.
I've been watching the 3 people you showed and somehow found you.
You are absolutely hilarious.
Like a comedian and please keep going.
You content is factual but so light and humourous.
My only criticism, make it half the time, speed through the facts and keep facts to end in written format, we can then pause and read but you get is to watch to the end so it's good for the algorithm.
I've subscribed and will watch more.
I’ve got shit tons of fragrance both clones and original.
Most of the time I go nose blind to the fragrance I’m wearing and the only person who’s (hopefully) appreciating them is someone else.
Do they know the difference between a $600 fragrance and a $60 ?
99.999% they don’t and couldn’t give a shin.
Would you please also make a video regarding health regulations that perfumery companies follow, and especially middle eastern companies which seems don't follow European/Western regulations!
My experience with Armaf:
CDNIM Parfum - Very good. Very bad lemony cleaning product opening, but dry down exceptionally good with great performance.
CDN Sillage - Terrible
Well done! That was Hilarious!
This is brilliant! "Master perfumer, Olivier Creed" you gotta love the irony in your voice!
Wonder why everyone seems to be talking up Milestone again.........😅😅😅😅
The opening of milestone is just disgusting to my nose, smells like heated melting plastic and I just can't get over it but in the dry down it still smells sweeter and more fruity compared to Milessime Imperial. I love my milessime imperial I get around 5 hours of longevity and projection which I find to be a satisfying performance and I got it for $120 for 3.4oz so I guess it's a win for me. Love your vids, Chris. You deserve so many more subscribers because you definitely put a huge amount of effort into making your videos interesting, educational and much different than the "basic" fragrance videos, great job.
I have 3 bottles of millesime imperial from 2007(comes with black sprayer) and I can tell you this staff is crazy good and powerful I could smell it for 2 days on my skin it's very expensive now, I have seen it online with $947 but luckily I have 2 sealed bottles and one am using . The new patches with the golden bottle is not really as 50% good. Better use the armaf version.
I used to be a big fan of Creed when I just started collecting fragrances. I thought they were the most luxurious and prestigious house in the world. Now after decades of being in the fragrance game, I don’t really care for the house anymore. I think they are a scam company. Too overpriced for that designer-ish quality and scent profile with atrocious performance. Overhyped house. Not even sure the history behind the house is real tbh. Since 1700s, yea right.
If you ever stop doing these videos, I will personally sue you BLOODY BRILLIANT as for creed I would have to stay loyal to at least milliseme imperial green Irish tweed and aventus I think it's the ingredients for me that really matter. Yeah, they don't perform as good as say amouage, but I still find them sophisticated and classy milliseme performs well for me
He's acting like this is new. I was curious if this would talk about the reformulation rumor. Ive had my Milestone for a year. Its great. Last decent for a summer scent for sure and it layers well with Turathi blue. I usually do 2-3 of Turathi and 1-2 of Milestone.
My 2007 bottle was super long lasting, its never project that well but it was super long lasting.
Can you do a video on why Ralph Lauren Romance was discontinued? They didn't re formulate, they got rid of completely? A mystery?
My 2018 Millesime Imperial got me a compliment at a bakery behind glass, spray enough and the basenotes will stick especially on clothes
Millesime on me last almost a whole day. Milestone even more but it smells like raddish for the first 2 hours.
Millesime is much more refined.
9:44 has me DEAD 💀AMAZING video i don't understand how its not getting more views
Great Video Chis 👍🤣😂
Brilliant Chris 👍👍
But I wonder how many people just won't get it 😂😂
I have faith in (most) of my subs!
Leave the Creed on display on your shelf, wear the Armaf
Unbelievable video. Now you can claim your holiday on taxes 😂
Tell me I'm inspired by Casey neistat without telling me
Strangely the bottle that I own is hit and miss some days I wear it and it's strong and I can smell it for a long time and other times it doesn't seem to last long
The Elvis of fragrance reviewers has left the building! Actually LOL'd during this video, can't say any other frag video has achieved that accolade. Kudos for mixing it up and combining a review with a unique performance at the same time. Can't wait for the follow up.
Think we've found the next James Bond.
9:44 has me DEAD 💀great video i don't understand how its not getting more views
Please answer honestly. Was this video sponsored by Armaf?
The watermelon montage though...😂 Damn, Chris you are my favorite Brit. I mean c'mon... you announced the fall of Arcadia, which was cool enough, but your YT channel, and THIS video in particular? Excellence, man. Keep it going! I rock Milestone several times a week and love it. I dowse my son in it so I can enjoy his sillage. It's good stuff.
Cheers!
worth the wait ! great production value !
Much appreciated!
Correction. Perfumer isn't Olivie Creed. It's Pierre Bourdon.
Wait….WHAT?!!
@FRAGMENTAL according to The Ghost Perfumer, I'm sure you know the book. MI, Silver mountain, Erolfa, Green Irish tweed, all are Pierre
Maaan What watermelon murder was that?!? 😂😂😂
Thank you Chris.
This video is obscen....ly great....the edition is so professional....the humor is pro level too
This is some next level chit. The completely necessary slice of watermelon footage is genius.
🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
Is it just me or does anyone else think milestone drydown leans towards tre nuit
I will never buy Armaf ever to synthetic
As tongue-in-cheek as the question itself...
Aa Chris once said, Armaf really Armed-Off😎
P.S. the quality of this is absolutely top notch!
OMG!! Where to start? I have a lot to say.
1- Thank you for the fun video. There might have been one or two segments that dragged on longer than they needed for me, and I skipped them, particularly because they weren't relative. But overall, great work 🫡.
2- I've never seen that photage of George! Although I watched his MI vs. Milestone video. I loved it! Thanks for sharing. I do miss him a lot.
3- Regarding the scents' performance, I love MI, but I do prefer Silver Mountain. MI doesn't perform or project on me. I can barely smell it on myself after maybe 15 minutes. I'm not bitter about it because I got a 100ml for 180 US dollars from a discounter. But I will never re-buy it. While Milestone is a BEAST! But I also won't buy it again for that reason! You see, for me, the beauty of MI is how refined, soft, and delicate it is. Milestone is that ×10. So, it amplifies elements that I don't think I like. Particularly a green gingery element which even George once described in MI.
4- I never get the watermelon in both.
If you skipped them how do you know they weren’t relevant? Blood sweat and tears went into every single frame. Give it a chance, it’s only 14 minutes 🤷🏼♂️
@FRAGMENTAL sorry Chris. I love you man!! Didn't mean to demean your efforts. I was watching, but then it felt liked I wasn't getting something I need. To be specific: the watermelon part, between people eating melons then you smashing one with an axe. And the whole sea levels, diluted seas and environmentally careless perfume lovers . I get it's humor and I do love your humor. But in this particular video I wasn't feeling it. But that's just me. Not you. Again, sorry. If it makes any difference. I unsubscribed from all perfume content creators except the great three: you, George and Aaron. And I will rewatch the whole thing again. Please accept my apology
Get this man to 100K subs. Cmon!
Chris this made me proper LOL. Bravo
Excellent! The jokes worked! When I write them, they make me laugh but I never know if anyone else will get it 😂
The likes to views ratio can't be right here.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I like Creed millesime imperial and im going to try the Armaf milestone and have a blessed day
Na the script the editing was 🧑🍳💋
Compliments over Climate. ❤❤ 😂😂
one of the most invested👌🏼
Enjoyed this very much.. Well done! I very much appreciate the work you put into this video.
Nothing wrong with the opening to me!!! I have a 2005 batch of the OG but I use my armaf milestone as a daily driver in the summer!! On my second bottle and I have to say it's been awesome to have such a great clone of my favorite summer scent😅 Chris you're a fucking riot .....love the video, your best one yet😊❤❤❤
Cheers!
Hopefully this video gets you over 100K. Almost there brother! Milestone for the win! Please keep these videos coming.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Hair game on point
Simply wow... Its cinematic...❤
I figured “Captain Filmmaker” would be in the comments and lo and behold…there he is in the vid himself. It’s been awhile and I miss him but it’s good to see him again through you. I just picture you guys having a shot of Scotch in a pub after filming and drinking a toast to “Miley”
Good seeing you again Chris.
Captain filmmaker started this style of fragrance videos
This video is a fever dream and I love it 😂
Endless lists are a dime a dozen and getting monotonous and repetitive. Corner this niche you’ve been grafting on fella; as my passion for fragrances starts to wane a little bit now and then, you bring me back in with content like this, without shamelessly nudging us to blind-buy meh scents from the gray market. You’re good at this mate, crack on 👏
Cheers mate!
Thanks to come to Algarve
