Years ago Kiehl's offered a line of Essence Oils that were in small glass vials with roller balls. Some of the scents seemed strange by their name, but I fell in love with 'Coriander 1946' as well as the 'Musk 1921' - each were named after the year they were formulated - but they have unfortunately discontinued all but the musk.
Great list- could add oxygene by Lanvin, azzaro intense, agua fresca Adolfo dominguez, For him Hanae mori, Ferrari Bright neroli, zino davidof .All below 30 USD
I got the Bentley intense, was disappointed with the opening. After 30 min turns into something like a church ointment. It s an interesting smell. Now i m happy i tried it longer and didn t send back, right away. The Lalique encre noir sport smells like freshly printed money. Love it. Very deep quality
Karl Lagerfeld’s Bois de Vetiver is another great cheap fragrance. It’s actually a “hidden gem” that many don’t speak about. I also adore Ferrari’s Noble Fig. Reminds me so much of a fragrance that Acqua di Parma would make.
Can't wait till they invent smell-o-vision Edit: Actually...after seeing how some of my co-workers' rooms look like from Zoom/Teams, I think better not...
With social distancing you practically have to wear 4 sprays of Joop to get a compliment, if someone can smell it through a mask! Then again, I'm not sure a 10 ft. thick lead door could block out the scent of Joop!
I know that Oud 24 Hours from Ard Al Zaafaran is supposed to be good. Where do you order these from? One really takes a chance when ordering from these small sellers on Ebay or the 3rd party sellers on Amazon.
Picked up 78 today at T.J.MAXX. 21.99. Really like it. Thank you for the recommendation Sebastian. I’d never guess the price or house if I smelled it without knowing
Your reviews help me pick the BEST scents at ANY budget for my male loved ones, I swear. You describe scents so vividly I could smell them! Been revising my wish list and gift list based on your reviews :)
@@funnynotjokin2387 I don't think it's generic. I had it on my kitchen counter with five other frags and my BFF and teenage daughter both went wild for it.
Love, love, love the Lalique Encre Noir line, but so wish the longevity was better. I bough a tester of the Encre Noir for my husband, and loved it so much I wear it myself! I bought a full bottle and a second back-up, but just don't get enough longevity from the cypress and vetiver to take it very seriously. I guess you get what you pay for. I will experiment with layering, because the drydown of the Encre Noir would be a great base for something.
Great suggestions Sebastian! My cheap compliment getters are tous intense man replay relover police forbidden man diesel plus plus masculine pomellato 67 artemisia and more.. and ofcaurse from your list are many like ch man prive Zadig and Voltaire etc... But most of all versace the dreamer!! My absolute no 1!
I have 8 of the list, all blind buys selected from your reviews, all fantastic, my two favorites from this list Icon and Bentley Intense! Thank you Sebastian!
Did you buy a 2018 or 2019 bottle? The first releases in 2018 were stronger. I have a 2019 bottle and it was pretty weak when I bought it. It seems a bit stronger now, so it's possible they released batches too early with bergamot that needed to maturate.
Being stuck at home means I'm only getting complements from my partner ...what she doesn't know is that I'm massively over-spraying my less liked cheaper bottles so I can replace them with better quality fragrances...after watching this video I'm not so sure I'm doing the right thing lol.....keep up the good work and stay safe
Totally agree with Kielh's. Wore it once and went to my cousin's place for lunch. She smelled it on me and fell in love. She's always asking me if I'm wearing it whenever we see each other. Great scent!
Kielh's makes better fragrances than original Musk like Forest Rain (discontinued though). Think it's better for a woman IMO and I have no problem wearing unisex or female marketeted frags. Just not my thing I guess.
Thank you for your series on cheap fragrances. So many fragrance channels here focus on the same handful of designer and niche fragrances. Its good to see these options are the other end of the price scale. I don't know if you have done it yet, but it would be great to see a blind survey of the better "cheap" fragrances for men, against their high end, and hyped up counterparts.
So glad that you introduce people to Guerlain Heritage - I normally wear it for more 'special' occasions but given the current state of the world - why not enjoy it now! I also decant it into a roll on because it tends to go very BIG on me. I like both the EDT and the EDP and go back and forth.
tim rush The edp is my #1 frag and edt #2. They are both masterpieces, so complex and classy. They are not sexy imo. More for the conservative gentlemen.
Sebastian, I have 16 of these and agree with you on each of them. Hopefully I'll be picking up the remaining four on your recommendation. I've lived in a few places in California, my favorite of them being Carmel by the sea, and think that if I lived in San Fran now I'd wear Lady in the Nettles more often. Though my current climate rarely affords the opportunity I do love what smells to me like the creamy inside of a burnt marshmallow at a pine forest campfire. I think that you may have made that recommendation as well! Thank you so much if so! I usually wear something different every day. The last few weeks I've smelled fantastic, though no one else in the world would know! Thank you again for this and all of your videos! Grace, peace, hope, health, and joy to you through this and always!
Loved this video concept! This mic allows us to hear the bottles clinking and the sound of the fragrance sloshing around. Reminds me of that beautiful time of the day when I choose my scent for the day. I’m not usually into sounds, so I’m not sure why this is standing out to me haha! I’m hoping to find one of your videos like this that include some amber florals.
LOVE this video. Actually own quite a few of them already bc of your talk with Ashley! Thank you for doing these. I never get tired of hearing you talk about fragrances and inspiring me to pick up a bottle :)
Others I’d like to add during this time would be... Tommy Hilfiger for men, Aramis New West, Joop (yea I know), Bvlgari Aqua, Guerlain Vetiver Extreme, Versace blue jeans. All budget spring-summer. Joop for its longevity and pricing
I've got New West coming. I haven't worn it since 1993 or somewhere around there. I loved it back then and I saw it for really cheap recently so orders are taking really long time but I can't wait to receive New West to go down memory lane! ;)
Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews lol you have 900 and I got new west lol let’s swap! Haha jk. I have to get 900 I have Devin...not a BIG fan. But I want to get the new Aramis Special Blend. 900 I think I would really enjoy
@@ThePerfumeGuy Of all the Aramis flankers, the one that's never seemed to hit the discounters is JHL (named after Estee Lauder's husband, Joseph Harold Lauder). It's still available at a few major retailers.
Elodie c god, u know what’s SO CRAZY! I had this in my shopping cart ready to go and I took it out cause I wasn’t sure if it’s unisex or more feminine. Worst case I could always give it to my wife haha. I wanna try to Le Bain so bad!
No Aramis 900? Im sooo on the fence with blind buying it... these are selling for $21.89 + free shipping on ebay currently. I guess what i'm trying to say (if you don't mind sharing), what can you relate 900 with??🙏
I am a BIIIG fan of the Encre Noire line... It does get positive attention, but, even if people hated them (which they don't), I would still wear them. Some low-cost ones that get me positive attention: Bentley Momentum intense Oud 24 by Ard al Zaafaran Lalique pour Homme (Leo) L'Uomo by Gianfranco Ferre Rochas Man L'Homme Ideal Cologne L'Eau D'Issey Intense Intense/Dark/Exclusive by Zara (I know you don't like it, but for me it works very well) Stay safe!
@@stijndeblauwe7607I I love the Or Intemporel, but I did not get that, I had a sample... Great fragrance... But I also love my Lalique pour Homme (Leo) EDP... It is great to wear dressed up
I had the original musk by Keihl from my dad back when i was a kid around 1997. Pretty sure it was real musk back then because one spray or dab (from the aftershave) would damn near knock you out!!! lol
Love this video. Awesome you give the price and where to get each fragrance. Learning from your past reviews, gave Dunhill Icon to my brother and Bentley to my brother in law as gifts. Both were very impressed at my good taste. Please keep up the good work sharing pricing and purchase info with each review. BIG THANKS
Wow you are the 1st one I've seen in reality because yesterday video was most definitely out of touch with what's going on in America $450 for 90mls 🤔 right now. Who??? So GOOD COMEBACK
Top notch! Funny, they rarely get talked about but they're both great.. Kiehl's Musk and Body Shop White Musk. Fantastic value and scents! Banana Republic and Mandarina Duck are excellent as well. Guerlain - Heritage is a classic. Great content!
This was a magical clip, full of so much choice. You did a fabulous job with it. Just to name a few, I have found that Aramis Tuscany, Stash by SJP, Athletic Man by Rive, Moustache by Rochas and Patrick by Fragrances of Ireland all seem to generate interest when I wear them. Another couple are Zara 9.0 and Zara S4nd4lwood. Fantastic list and thank you!
Hey Sebastian, I got a bottle of Lagerfeld Classic and wanted to know if you ever reviewed it. i gotta say its a nostalgic smell for me and I love it but just wanted to see what you think of it. cheers
Excellent video. You have the 2018 edition of Zara Vibrant Leather. From all accounts, the 2019 version was weaker when purchased. I'm finding my bottle getting stronger as time goes on, so I have the feeling they released bottles before some oils had a chance to mature. I find Voyage to be too weak for hot weather. Where did you find Guerlain Heritage testers for $35? Perhaps Fragrancenet had a few when you first recorded this video? The entire Encre Noir line is really good. Versace Dreamer introduced me to the house and Versace Man, Man Eau Fraiche and Eros soon followed. Aramis 900? Wow! That came out of left field! I'd like to see you review Aramis J.H.L.
My gf really likes Encre Noure A L'Extreme on me, so that would be my nr.1 cheap compliment getter. Versace Dreamer is also a very likeable and long lasting cheapie for me. + Bentley for Men Absolute is awesome for winter.
Wonderful videos and knowledge-sharing, always. Thanks for these cheapie suggestions, especially in the context of our bizarro times. I just watched your "favorite coffee" video and wondered what you favorite coffee-prominent cheapie might be? My favorite low-budget scents are Caron Eau de Reglisse (but price is coming up because discontinued), SJP Covet, Cerruti 1881, Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Bamboo, Halston Amber, Weil Suki Essence, Clinique Aromatics in Black, Laura Mercier Violette (but discontinued), Samsara, and definitely the Kiehl's musck + Versace Dreamer (someone broke a bottle in the discount store I was visiting and I was like "whatisTHAT?") What am I doing during covid-times? Working writing (art-based) grants and just started making fragrance videos, too. Super low-fi and I have a lot to learn, but I'm having fun! Cheers to you for so much inspiration, Amy
I love Tous man sport. I blind bought it because of you and your Co host last year. I just wish it lasted. I swear it doesn't last more than a few hours on me
I’m so happy to see a flanker of Caron Pour un Homme get some attention. I have the original, it’s the most relaxing frag in my entire collection. It’s an 80 year old recipe and still the same to this day. Perhaps not the most masculine but a masterpiece regardless.
Chris McCall aww man, now I have to buy it. I blind buy 95% of my frags after serious research, will check it out. I’m 95% happy with my purchases btw, over 150 and hitting the mark on my blind buys 👍
This fellow is excellent. Really really enjoying his videos. Oh my goodness. Does anyone know what his job is? He’s such a natural-informative and authentic/sincere.
This list is darned near perfect as far as cheapies go. Superb job as as always. My only problem is I don’t have or know niche so I’m always lost on those 😂
Dear Sebastian, I suggest you to try two of my most complimented cheap fragrance I own. The first one it's called "Thé des Vignes" by Caudalie. It is considered a women fragrance but I think it's 100% unisex. It has an "Eau Fraiche" concentration but it really smells AMAZING. Here in Italy it costs 25€ the 50ml and 35€ the 100ml, so is very cheap! White musk, neroli, ginger and jasmine. Gosh, so delicate, so fresh, so sensual. It's one of my unknown gems, I'm sure you will be surprised. The second incredible one is "Periplo" by L' Erbolario. I think it's EDP ad it costs 22,90€ the 50ml and 32,90 the 100ml. It has only 4 notes: white thyme, bay leaf, green mandarin and sandalwood. Very fresh, pungent and 100% "Mediterranean". They are both gorgeous for their prices, you absolutely HAVE to try them! Let me know :)) Greetings from Milano
Thé des Vignes Fresh by Caudalie? I don't see one here in the states just called Thé des Vignes" by Caudalie? And Periplo L'Erbolario? I'll look for them soon when I am buying some cheapies. But I have bought a lot lately so it will have to wait a bit. But thank you for the suggestions, I enjoy them! :)
Thanks for the video Sebastian. As I sit here just outside of New York City I keep hearing ambulances going by. Your videos are very calming. I will have to keep that in mind. Good idea to do a cheapies video. With the way the economy is going to be for a few years I think I can only afford cheapies.
Great list. I’ve been eyeing Kiehl’s Original Musk for months already. It’s being sold by a niche store. I expected Lalique Encre Noire À L’Extrême (25 euro on Notino), but perhaps it’s more expensive in the US. 300 ml Mugler Cologne for $60 - $70 would be a nice addition too, I reckon. Great, great list anyway 😀👍
I bought Caron pour un homme sport because of your review, and now i have to consider buying l'eau... L'eauOL 😄. But I didn't feel any connection between sport and the original. The sport was a very bright and zingy citrus scent, and the original was smells little bit like play dough to me. Will L'eau be more like the original? Btw we're doing fine in here. Things are getting better here in Korea. Stay safe!
Great video as always. Love the selection. By the way, I am wondering if you have ever done a list for fragrances that are Musk-based/prominent? I would be interested in seeing that. Cheers!
Great list Sebastian. I'm actually going to order Bentley Intense since I've had the regular Bentley. I'm also ordering Encre Noir Intense and Robert Graham Valour. Valour sounds like it's my genre. All these prices are fantastic. I order from Fragrancenet and Fragrancex. On those sites I can do some major spending especially with your recommendations! Thanks as always for your detailed descriptions. Your taste is pretty damn close to mine. I subscribe to a handful of fragrance vloggers but I've found you to be my go-to man for fragrance purchases😉👃👍 p.s the only things with a fragrance I cannot wear anything with white musk and/or ISO E Super🚫 instant headaches. Do you like Yatagan by Caron? It's so old school masculine but I love it though it's Sillage and longevity is virtually non existent
Greetings from Massachusetts. I have a question - what do visitors do your domicile smell, if anything? Surely a collection like this must create a certain aroma?
Totally had no intention buying any cheapies while watching this vid. And then I ended up buying 2 lol! I allllmost called you out saying "you can't find Heritage for $35", but then I found it 😄. Really good vid for the recession, thank you! 👍🙂
Great list and I enjoyed it and i like natieca voyage and mr burberry indigo and aramis and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed day
Interesting and useful list of fragrances. I’ve got several of them. Just checked to buy another bottle of CH Man Prive. But the prices are insane at the moment. Is it discontinued?
@@funnynotjokin2387 I layer it under several different fragrances I own. It's really a good base for Aventus, Mugler cologne, Bleu de Chanel, Aramis New West, Atkinsons Tulipe Noire, Versace Oud Noir. Pretty much anything you want to add a musky base to.
Best cheap compliment getter? Putting green by Omerta. Usually I don't like clone fragrances and the marketing behind that but this one is so close to Eau Sauvage for about 10€ it is unbelievable. But I don't know whether its available in the US :( I really like your content and your recommendations :) Greetings from Germany
Hi seb Could you do a top 20/top10 designer frags which are niche quality ,if not better ie issey miyake noir ambre,prada lhomme,dior homme intense edp etc Just an idea seb Cheers
I bought the bottle of BR 78 green and man do I love that smell. Works great in the South Florida heat when I sit in my front yard. Are there any other fragrances that have that kind of mix/dna? I would surely like to check them out. It seems unique to me. Is it the combination of Tea and Fig?
Great review Seb love kryptomint my sent of the day was nice to see it on your list. Also like the Burberry fragrance if I’m not mistaken the perfumer is Kurkdjian.

I get alot of compliments from wearing some of the offerings from lattafa, Rasasi and Ard Al zaafaran. Raghba by Lattafa is lovely
Agree on the Raghba's, and I bought it for my husband, and I have Raghba for her and love it. It also layers well, as it has great longevity-

Hey Sebastian, I got a bottle of Lagerfeld Classic and wanted to know if you ever reviewed it. i gotta say its a nostalgic smell for me and I love it but just wanted to see what you think of it. cheers
Excellent video. You have the 2018 edition of Zara Vibrant Leather. From all accounts, the 2019 version was weaker when purchased. I'm finding my bottle getting stronger as time goes on, so I have the feeling they released bottles before some oils had a chance to mature. I find Voyage to be too weak for hot weather. Where did you find Guerlain Heritage testers for $35? Perhaps Fragrancenet had a few when you first recorded this video? The entire Encre Noir line is really good. Versace Dreamer introduced me to the house and Versace Man, Man Eau Fraiche and Eros soon followed. Aramis 900? Wow! That came out of left field! I'd like to see you review Aramis J.H.L.
thank you so much for the kiehls recommendation. i never would've thought to use something like this but I love it
You're so welcome!
Superb video, some unknown enticing ones there
Body shops white musc (and the dark one) are great, just discovered them recently
My gf really likes Encre Noure A L'Extreme on me, so that would be my nr.1 cheap compliment getter. Versace Dreamer is also a very likeable and long lasting cheapie for me. + Bentley for Men Absolute is awesome for winter.
Great video. Different choices that make me love your videos and content. Thank you!
I've gotten a few compliments with Antonio Banderas Blue Seduction and FM 452 Pure. Love your vids Sebastian and stay safe!
Wonderful videos and knowledge-sharing, always. Thanks for these cheapie suggestions, especially in the context of our bizarro times. I just watched your "favorite coffee" video and wondered what you favorite coffee-prominent cheapie might be?
My favorite low-budget scents are Caron Eau de Reglisse (but price is coming up because discontinued), SJP Covet, Cerruti 1881, Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Bamboo, Halston Amber, Weil Suki Essence, Clinique Aromatics in Black, Laura Mercier Violette (but discontinued), Samsara, and definitely the Kiehl's musck + Versace Dreamer (someone broke a bottle in the discount store I was visiting and I was like "whatisTHAT?")
What am I doing during covid-times? Working writing (art-based) grants and just started making fragrance videos, too. Super low-fi and I have a lot to learn, but I'm having fun! Cheers to you for so much inspiration, Amy
I want to try A Men’s Cryptomint I like the way that combination of notes sounds
I love Tous man sport. I blind bought it because of you and your Co host last year. I just wish it lasted. I swear it doesn't last more than a few hours on me
That's over an hour more than Nautica Voyage lasts on me!
I’m so happy to see a flanker of Caron Pour un Homme get some attention. I have the original, it’s the most relaxing frag in my entire collection. It’s an 80 year old recipe and still the same to this day. Perhaps not the most masculine but a masterpiece regardless.
Snortch Gortch The Caron Pour Homme Sport is great as well.
Chris McCall aww man, now I have to buy it. I blind buy 95% of my frags after serious research, will check it out. I’m 95% happy with my purchases btw, over 150 and hitting the mark on my blind buys 👍
This fellow is excellent. Really really enjoying his videos. Oh my goodness. Does anyone know what his job is? He’s such a natural-informative and authentic/sincere.
Forget it. I found this: th-cam.com/video/Ur_2xkoI5Lw/w-d-xo.html
This list is darned near perfect as far as cheapies go. Superb job as as always. My only problem is I don’t have or know
niche so I’m always lost on those 😂
Dear Sebastian, I suggest you to try two of my most complimented cheap fragrance I own. The first one it's called "Thé des Vignes" by Caudalie. It is considered a women fragrance but I think it's 100% unisex. It has an "Eau Fraiche" concentration but it really smells AMAZING. Here in Italy it costs 25€ the 50ml and 35€ the 100ml, so is very cheap! White musk, neroli, ginger and jasmine. Gosh, so delicate, so fresh, so sensual. It's one of my unknown gems, I'm sure you will be surprised. The second incredible one is "Periplo" by L' Erbolario. I think it's EDP ad it costs 22,90€ the 50ml and 32,90 the 100ml. It has only 4 notes: white thyme, bay leaf, green mandarin and sandalwood. Very fresh, pungent and 100% "Mediterranean". They are both gorgeous for their prices, you absolutely HAVE to try them! Let me know :)) Greetings from Milano
Thé des Vignes Fresh by Caudalie? I don't see one here in the states just called Thé des Vignes" by Caudalie? And Periplo L'Erbolario? I'll look for them soon when I am buying some cheapies. But I have bought a lot lately so it will have to wait a bit. But thank you for the suggestions, I enjoy them! :)
KINDRED GOODS Old Navy Sea Salt & Fig 1.0oz $22 on Ebay. EASILY the best aquatic fragrance I've smelled!
I love it but no longer sold I think. Unless you find it on Ebay or discounter I feel! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy Then i need to get a back up bottle. It is exquisite!!
Thanks for the video Sebastian. As I sit here just outside of New York City I keep hearing ambulances going by. Your videos are very calming. I will have to keep that in mind. Good idea to do a cheapies video. With the way the economy is going to be for a few years I think I can only afford cheapies.
Just blind buy banana republic 78, hope to like it! Lacoste blanc always get me compliments
Chris trf So ? How it is ? Haha
Borsa Lino amazing! I love it
👍😀 Thanks for showing Heritage. Bought it and really like it. Nice Fougere with Patchouli.
@@sdalby9127 😉 yes, you are right. today i would call it a woody aromatic
Hi, just wanted to state that the to in Tous is pronounced like tomato (keep safe)
Great list. I’ve been eyeing Kiehl’s Original Musk for months already. It’s being sold by a niche store. I expected Lalique Encre Noire À L’Extrême (25 euro on Notino), but perhaps it’s more expensive in the US. 300 ml Mugler Cologne for $60 - $70 would be a nice addition too, I reckon. Great, great list anyway 😀👍
Go with Kiehls Musk... best ever. Its a shame they don't do other products such as complimentary deodorant. Only shower gel...
Great list of frags to check out. Thanks for sharing
I bought Caron pour un homme sport because of your review, and now i have to consider buying l'eau... L'eauOL 😄.
But I didn't feel any connection between sport and the original. The sport was a very bright and zingy citrus scent, and the original was smells little bit like play dough to me.
Will L'eau be more like the original?
Btw we're doing fine in here.
Things are getting better here in Korea.
Stay safe!
Great video as always. Love the selection. By the way, I am wondering if you have ever done a list for fragrances that are Musk-based/prominent? I would be interested in seeing that. Cheers!
Great list Sebastian. I'm actually going to order Bentley Intense since I've had the regular Bentley. I'm also ordering Encre Noir Intense and Robert Graham Valour. Valour sounds like it's my genre. All these prices are fantastic. I order from Fragrancenet and Fragrancex. On those sites I can do some major spending especially with your recommendations! Thanks as always for your detailed descriptions. Your taste is pretty damn close to mine. I subscribe to a handful of fragrance vloggers but I've found you to be my go-to man for fragrance purchases😉👃👍 p.s the only things with a fragrance I cannot wear anything with white musk and/or ISO E Super🚫 instant headaches. Do you like Yatagan by Caron? It's so old school masculine but I love it though it's Sillage and longevity is virtually non existent
Great choices and great idea for father’s day gifts,this is time to think before expending money ....
Thank you so mu for doing this video!!! I love all of your videos!
My SOTD is 78 Vintage Green. Great for hot weather.
Greetings from Massachusetts. I have a question - what do visitors do your domicile smell, if anything? Surely a collection like this must create a certain aroma?
Thank you for this video, your cheapie and gourmand list videos are the best
Also your comparison videos are great
CAn you do a summer/fresh beast mode list
already exists 🔥💪 (from 2019)
Dawid Czogała thanks
Totally had no intention buying any cheapies while watching this vid. And then I ended up buying 2 lol! I allllmost called you out saying "you can't find Heritage for $35", but then I found it 😄. Really good vid for the recession, thank you! 👍🙂
Great list and I enjoyed it and i like natieca voyage and mr burberry indigo and aramis and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed day
Burberry Touch is nice, too. The batches of Voyage for the last few years are pretty weak in longevity.
Interesting and useful list of fragrances. I’ve got several of them.
Just checked to buy another bottle of CH Man Prive. But the prices are insane at the moment. Is it discontinued?
You are extraordinary Sebastian many thanks. Your greatest fan from Istanbul
Kiehl's Original Musk is my go to juice for a solid base when layering.
Joey Swaney what have u layered it with?
@@funnynotjokin2387 I layer it under several different fragrances I own. It's really a good base for Aventus, Mugler cologne, Bleu de Chanel, Aramis New West, Atkinsons Tulipe Noire, Versace Oud Noir. Pretty much anything you want to add a musky base to.
Can you do a video like this for women’s fragrances?
Best cheap compliment getter?
Putting green by Omerta. Usually I don't like clone fragrances and the marketing behind that but this one is so close to Eau Sauvage for about 10€ it is unbelievable. But I don't know whether its available in the US :(
I really like your content and your recommendations :)
Greetings from Germany
Thank you, Sir. You make fragrance so accessible and educational. Big teddy bear hugs from Australia. xoxo
Love your content
Could you do a video of cheap fragrences for younger people
Thanks
Hi seb
Could you do a top 20/top10 designer frags which are niche quality ,if not better ie issey miyake noir ambre,prada lhomme,dior homme intense edp etc
Just an idea seb
Cheers
Thank you thank you thank you buddy! We’ve been waiting for this🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Great content! Thank you! Thoughts on the Roberto Cavalli Uomo and the flankers? Deep desire, silver essence, la notte?
I only know the original. It's pretty good! th-cam.com/video/-7jHmUvD-g8/w-d-xo.html
I bought the bottle of BR 78 green and man do I love that smell. Works great in the South Florida heat when I sit in my front yard. Are there any other fragrances that have that kind of mix/dna? I would surely like to check them out. It seems unique to me. Is it the combination of Tea and Fig?
Yes I think in humid weather it will work great! :)
Try some of the ones in this video: th-cam.com/video/LOCFXT5W2T4/w-d-xo.html
Please tell me can Versace Dreamer be worn by women too? Thanks.
Great review Seb love kryptomint my sent of the day was nice to see it on your list. Also like the Burberry fragrance if I’m not mistaken the perfumer is Kurkdjian.
Lovely list Sebastian 👍
My favorite Caron is Yuzu, it's great.
Excellent review as usual. Thanks
The body shop white musk lasted 12hours on me I had to wear a mask at work for 8hours and took it off the smell was still there like I just put it on
Excellent video. Thank you so much!
From this list ....☝🏾☝🏾which ones would you recommend for the ladies please . I enjoy some of my husband’s fragrances!! 😅😅👍
Loved this video!! Thanks for the recommendations. Happy to see some different frags, especially at these prices !!
