@@surfgreen111 I know lol like all work week it was nice until i was off, oh well I laid low and watched some war movies on / history doc’s in honor of Memorial Day
Good list man! My top 10 summer fragrances in my collection in no particular order are: 1. John Varvatos Artisan Pure 2. D&G Light Blue Intense 3. Rasasi Hawas 4. Guerlain L'homme Ideal Cologne 5. Versace Pour Homme 6. Bvlgari Aqva Amara 7. Acqua Di Gio Profumo 8. Versace Man Eau Fraiche 9. Lacoste Blanc 10. Bal D'Afrique by Byredo Honorable mentions: 1. Azarro Chrome 2. Nautica Voyage 3. Dior Sauvage EDT Shout out from Costa Rica! 👍🏽
I like FILA velour track jackets and pants, I still like to wear a cold weather fragrance in summer like Antaeus or Kouros. Royal Yacht has a waspy vibe to my mind.
Kouros is an all year round scent it smells great in the air i wear it in the summer. The tattoo and cologne sport are just definitely made for the summer though. Royall Yatch has that look lol it’s good though
Such great choices. Wouldn't expect anything less from you Kelan. I think you've just about convinced me to finally pick up a bottle of Kenzo Homme. That shirt really fits that last bottle of Kouros Tonique! 😄
Great list. I too love D&G Pour Homme and have currently have the France version. I remember the original back in the day was so much better and richer. Have you tried Intenso? if so would you say it is closer to the original made in Italy version?
I do not have intenso but I have the made in Italy version edt and the current formula in an aftershave. It’s such a great timeless scent can be worn any time ! Thank you for watching and commenting sir
I definitely need to get my nose on a lot of those Royall line of fragrances. I also agree with kouros cologne sport. It’s basically Kouros with a sprinkle of florals on top of it. Man fantastic list dude. I picked up moschino toy boy and that is AWESOME. Bottle is gay looking but that stuff hits hard
Very solid choices all around, the original forms in particular. I’ve been disappointed in the new formulations of my crown jewell classics lately. Picked up a new bottle of Polo green and it just doesn’t quite hack it. Something off about. Wish they wouldn’t screw with perfection.
Awesome seeing my high school fragrance in this video. Always thought I liked “boy smells” back then, but apparently I already liked “man smells” in my high school years. It was Eau Fraiche, thinking of getting that again for warm weather 🤔 Though, I have promised myself to “water” my collection down to 80s style fragrances only 🤔
Great list again Kelan !!! I live in South Korea and Kenzo is very popular here but buyers gravitate towards their L'eau series which I feel smells very unisex leaning feminine. It has very little going for it especially since Versace is cheap and widely available here.
Not many people mention Kenzo pour Homme I’ve really been enjoying it. Kouros cologne sport is so good as well. Thank you for watching and commenting dude
9:01 Versace Eau Fraiche super long lasting? I remember long time ago, maybe 2018 when my friend sprayed it on my hoodie it lasted for weeks but now I bought it in 2024 and its disappointing. On my skin and clothes as well, very low projection and lasts maybe one or two hours.
Great list. I would included Authenticity Perfumes “Summer Vibez” and my favorite summer fragrance John Varvados “Artisan Pure”. But, it’s your list and it’s a good one.
@@lv2465 it’s a citrus scent with a beautiful woody dry down. I usually get about 6-7 hours on my skin, longer on my clothing. It does, however, perform better in the heat.
Thanks a bunch Kelan...You just made Kenzo go up in price ...I was gonna pick up the tester it literally smells like Pacific Coast highway on a 98 degree day ...As a fragrantica reviewer says you can smell rubber raft it diver equipment in the scent as weird as it sounds stellar review Kelan ...It's all good I would pay 60 if I had to
Summer is my most hated season for fragrences. I always want to wear my heavy leathers and ouds and orientals but i always stick to what is proper. Citrus and fresh even though i find the least enjoyment out of those frags. I love kenzo jungle so i gotta grab kenzo pour homme and i love kouros maybe i need a summer flanker ? Good list
I totally understand summer has the least interesting scents but I don’t stick to the season stuff religiously and when I do I look for different kinds like the ones in This list. Definitely check out the kouros summer scents but the og kouros is all year round in my opinion
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey you wear og kouros in the summer heat?! Man maybe i have to stop being so religious in my seasons. Some hot days i crave for kouros or lapidus pour homme but i never wear them. Even while on lockdown i stuck to the proper season.
@@RamseytheRam kouros is all year round to me I love it in the summer it smells so good in the air. Seasonal fragrance structure is nice and I follow it sometimes and make lists like these but end of the day i don’t care as much and wear what I want whenever
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey I usually never wear civet or castoreum in the heat. But i honestly just heard people say dont wear it in the summer so i never did. Im gonna give it a shot 💪
Nice review. It helps. Wanted to know what Summer fragrances are the best. I like YSL's Kourous. I had the original white bottle. One of the best. It is strong in the beginning but it really smells good after few hours. My question is for the Sport's one. Does it smells original Kourous but lighter in the beginning? Coz the original Kourous is little strong in the beginning.
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey thank you so much kellen, I try to get it based on your recommendation. Appreciate your TH-cam channel. A great source of information.
Have you ever tried Dunhill Fresh? It is superb. Projects excellently and lasts! A fresh green fragrance. Not often talked about. Possibly discontinued but still available on Fragrancex and CHEAP!!!!
Im probably gonna pick up kenzo and eau de prep for the summer there so cheap, colonge sport is definitely a great choice so versatile yet so unique. I wear it to the gym with the colonge sport deodorant i really love it. Definitely don't smell like anyone else in there with there bubblegum colonge.
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey ended up just getting the kenzo for now, do you know which fragrance with a similar scent to ADP colonia or a bright citrus fougere for warm weather has the best longevity and projection?
Hello, Could you please review Fila Fresh. I was at Barlington and I picked up a dark blue bottle of Fila for 10 bucks and I am not enjoying the smell of it at all. The fresh one was 15 bucks I wonder if I should go back and pick up the Fila Fresh. I bought Holeston 1-12 as well which I enjoyed.
Try Esencia By Loewe. It’s very fresh think like a polo green but cleaner no tobacco. It’s from the late 80’s but it’s awesome. I just did a review on it recently
I didn't realize Hilfiger had a scent called "Eau de Prep." That's what I used to call the original Tommy lol. Actually a really nice looking bottle - almost looks like a Geo Trumper bottle or something.
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey btw, I forget, do you like vetiver? If so, check out Guerlain Leau Boisee if you havent yet. Been wearing it today, and it's a gorgeous lime and vetiver scent. My pleasure as always. Keep up with the great content bro!
Very good list, I have some of them in my warm weather rotation.. I also wear a lot of Eau de Rochas and Nikos Sculpture, both great value summer classics imho... And don't forget Chopard Heaven, a discontinued masterpiece from 1994 which I think inspired Francis Kurkdjian in the making of Le Male... Check it out if you never tried it, you're missing out on something great 👍
I was on the fence about Versace Man Eau Fraiche because I was unsure of the longevity, but I think I'll give it a try to help usher in a "return to normal" summer.
Solid list, great to see my favorite at the 9th spot! 🙌
The original Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme is so good ! Thanks for stopping by !
And the new dg pour homme is not bad is a unique fragrance and the women love it
D&G Pour Homme. The quintessential of the Italian elegance from the mid 90s! One of the best scents EVER!
It really is a special one for sure ! I’m happy to have the made in Italy version. I need to review that one individually soon
My favorite reviewer! Thanks for all your hard work my friend.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support Sean !
That box of Fila is massive! 😂
It is huge, the body fragrance bottle is what makes it so bulky lol
D&G was my first signature scent in highschool. Still a favourite. One of the best ever, without a doubt.
I agree it is my favorite from D&G and smells so nice perfect for a night out in the summer
Lots of good freshies. Look forward to wearing some of these in NJ this summer
Weather was pretty awful this Memorial Day weekend unfortunately lol
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey ha I was there... I know. The days leading up to it were nice and toasty.
@@surfgreen111 I know lol like all work week it was nice until i was off, oh well I laid low and watched some war movies on / history doc’s in honor of Memorial Day

Great video bro. I'm surprised to see Kenzo in there. One of my favourite summer bangers.
Kenzo pour Homme is awesome I’ve been wearing it on and off since the start of spring I really like it
Enjoyed the video a lot, as usual. Liked the reference to Fila fresh. Will search, and to Kenzo one, too.
Both are great pics for summer especially kenzo pour Homme. Thank you for watching and commenting Jose

Yeah Royall Bermuda makes great bottles for their scents which are also great too lol
0 dislikes! LETSGO big K!!! Just in time for summer. Love it
Thanks as always J !

That’s to bad, I have a newer bottle I think it’s 2017 or something and I have no complaints. At least it’s still being made lol

Pour Homme is the only bottle I have from kenzo, I have a sample of kenzo jungle but I didn’t care for it much. Pour Homme is great though
Kenzo pour Homme is in my top 3 fragrances, to me it's a dark aquatic like the coastline at night. Love the look of the Kouros Cologne Sport bottle.
Not many people mention Kenzo pour Homme I’ve really been enjoying it. Kouros cologne sport is so good as well. Thank you for watching and commenting dude

I pour Gillette Cool Wave aftershave in an atomizer. Great summer scent. Punches above its weight in terms of performance.
I have yet to try that one
Great list. I would included Authenticity Perfumes “Summer Vibez” and my favorite summer fragrance John Varvados “Artisan Pure”. But, it’s your list and it’s a good one.
Thanks for watching Tom! I do not own any John Varvatos fragrances and I actually gave away my summer vibes bottle in a give away a while back.
I hear it has performance issues, what's your take?
@@lv2465 it’s a citrus scent with a beautiful woody dry down. I usually get about 6-7 hours on my skin, longer on my clothing. It does, however, perform better in the heat.

I have the original one which I like a lot, thank you for watching Mohd!

Hey I forgot to mention me receiving the Anucci Sport finally . Your right not cool at all . Nothing sporty about it .In fact it blows 👎.

I am going to be looking for the Kouros Tattoo, but I will also be Summering up with a classic from House of Caron YUZU man :)
I need to try that one I e heard good things
Damn kouros cologne sport sounds fire too..
It’s so good
Its so good for the gym🦾
Great job as always! Is Eau Fraiche ok for an older man? (57)
My dad wore it, he went through a whole bottle that’s where I first tried it so absolutely
57 you ain't old dude. 87 then you're old.
Great list! 👍🏻
Thank so much for watching and commenting! Always enjoy working with you guys !
Hello,
Could you please review Fila Fresh. I was at Barlington and I picked up a dark blue bottle of Fila for 10 bucks and I am not enjoying the smell of it at all. The fresh one was 15 bucks I wonder if I should go back and pick up the Fila Fresh. I bought Holeston 1-12 as well which I enjoyed.
It’s a simple shower gel scent, fresh clean etc not much more to it than that. Maybe I’ll review it down the line not sure yet.
@@ScentsOfSouthJersey thank you I like shower gel smell
Jersey City dude here.
Ima look into that kourous tattoo.
What's a good but modern oakmoss frag. Tho???
Try Esencia By Loewe. It’s very fresh think like a polo green but cleaner no tobacco. It’s from the late 80’s but it’s awesome. I just did a review on it recently
Good morning! 7am In Finland. Craving Kouros 🤘

Great video . Would add Baldessarini cologne by Hugo Boss to the list
I have yet to try that, thank you for the recommendation! Thanks for watching

I will have to look into that one, le male for many years was the only fragrance I wore for the most part so I appreciate it a lot
I have seen some miniatures on ebay for a decent price... Full bottles prices are influenced by the shortage of stock
Dope
Thank you for watching dude !
I was on the fence about Versace Man Eau Fraiche because I was unsure of the longevity, but I think I'll give it a try to help usher in a "return to normal" summer.
I wore it last night and it lasts a long time on me, especially on clothing. Thank you for watching and commenting
Kouros cologne sport projects and lasts forever.
CK One with balls!
It was a good way to describe it lol OT really is similar but much stronger and more masculine for sure. The gift set is a great buy and still on eBay
