    That is the best description of 'The Dreamer' I've heard online. One of my all time favourites. I was born in 77 and been wearing it since my 20's. I'd add Lancome Hypnose for under £30 which i adore.A great date scent when you don't want a shouty scent. Zara's 'Scent#1' a copy of Le Labo's 'Santal 33' for £10 is brilliant value. Please give it a go. I walked into Le Labo's shop in Soho and had a cheeky tester and seriously was amazed at how similiar it was. £180 for the original 100ml or a tenner from Zara? Also picked up a bottle of Lempicka Homme 2018 for £20 just because i don't want to use up my original ' Au Masculin' or the Intense version that i own. Great but just not as sweet as the original but a very good replacement. Performance issue with it still but amazing smell still. Ferrari ' Essence Oud' for £14 is another i picked up for the Winter. Bit off the subject but i picked up a copy of Gaultier2 on my hols in greece for £7 for 30ml which is so close to the original its untrue ! Its very Oily but lasts an age !

    I wore The Dreamer yesterday and today! Quite rare for me to wear the same fragrance two days running but it was the first time I'd worn it in ages and I just thought, 'Why have I not worn this in ages?' Love it. Nice picks in there sir and I must try out The Lalique.

    For years I've wanted to try Lalique ...but I've heard it has no projection? Great list. Problem with me is that I don't like "fresh" scents. I love heavy hitters. I love leathery, boozy, tobacco, oudish and animalic skank. Omg I had Esraa! Loved it. Rasasi is awesome imo. Thanks for the quick response I had to edit- balsam is like resinousy tree sap, which I love

    Excellent presentation. You do a super job, keep up the great work. Here's an idea, what about a Clone- Off? For example comparing a major Niche or Designer cologne to most of the major clones or inexpensive fragrances. For example comparing Dior Sauvage to to 4 to 6 similar fragrances including, Perfume Parlour, Alexandria Fragrances, Armaf Ventana and also including Prada Luna Rossa Carbon and Dylan Blue.

    Lalique Pour Homme is a real grower- it took me by surprise at first after owning several other Lalique fragrances. I wasn't expecting the vintage vibe- but once I got past that, it is an extremely well done fragrance. Longevity is very good and the projection is gentlemanly- not beastly, but enough. Very calm and classic scent!

    Great job as always Mr. Smelly! Your picture of Maurice Roucel had me in stitches! You and Smurfygurly have the best fragrance reviews out there. Keep up the good work. My best inexpensive buy of the year is "Mountain Man" EDT by Stirling Soap Company. It is a spot-on clone of Silver Mountain Water. Unbelievable value! Not sure if their EDT is available in the UK yet.

    I have a form of synesthesia where I can often see smells. It was much more pronounced when I was younger. I've also been wearing the dreamer for yours. I've always seen a slight purple haze when I smelled. I've gotten many compliments over the years because of the dreamer. It looks like it's experiencing a resurgence in popularity

    Lalique Pour Homme was my scent of day - so true regarding scent description, great performance (in cold NE US weather); a great Smelly recommendation from past vids that has garnered a compliment pour moi. One more recommendation for Dreamer; may eventually check out. Great intro as always. Cheers!

    "I don't get tons of compliments all the time." I can relate. I think it's the intimidation factor of either our dashing good looks or our formidable scents or a combination thereof. Seriously, though. That one time the lady working at the DMV gushed over the Mugler Cologne I was wearing made me want to hug her. 😆Come to think of it, I hadn't come within 10 feet of her in the room when she did so. Maybe that's a bit telling as well.

    hey smelly - good list
    always wondered when reviewrs say "this smells a bit synthetic" what do they/you mean
    arent most of the notes used in the majority of fragrances man made rather than natural
    even for so called niche perfumes - i mean i cant imagine someone distilling apples/plums/pear/coffee/tobacco or even woody/floral notes whatever in the manufacture of the perfume
    surely the main thing is if it smells nice
    GREAT INTRO BTW

  • @williamandrews1
    @williamandrews1 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have to say I'm a little surprised. I thought Versace's "The Dreamer" smelled more like Bogart Pour Homme. Further Dolce and Gabbana pour homme smells better IMHO than either Bogart pour homme or Versace "The Dreamer".

    • @MrSmelly1977
