I think that even the opening is close enough that you know exactly what the clone is shooting for. Maybe I’m optimistic, but I put the opening at about 90% similar. - I agree completely that the dry down is close to 95%.
I’ve got it & it’s beast, very close to my vintage Layton batch. Alexandria fragrance has a great Layton clone that takes away that “Vicks vapor” vibe that’s a better option for date night
I love AF version of Layton(Royal Equestrian).I don't understand why it doesn't get mentioned as a great alternative to Layton plus I think that RE last longer than Detour Noir IMO
@@kelvinwynn8454 haven’t compared it to detour noir performance wise, from what I remember it’s pretty close. It’s cool people don’t talk bout the AF one much, that’s their loss
really happy that you are comparing these two fragrances, because I was planning to buy it but I think I have the best Bharara Bleu for men / I hope that one day you will finally do the review on Lalique encre noire à l'extreme vs Chanel Sycomore
I'll have to try it out. I did your deal and got Layton and Carlyle something. Still have some layton, it doesn't last too long, but 50 dollars sounds amazing.
Man must agree with you on this one. It is very very close to Layton in fact there is very little difference in the smell but a huge difference in the price . 👍
I think it would b a good replacement. Cause the new batches of all pdm Fragrances don't have that pop like it use too. Has the same smell but doesn't perform
I'm not a specialist (that's why ai am here), but to my nose cardamom and 4-6 hours of longevity put together smell like a date fragrance. Not bad! Thanks for the review!
Hey Brother ! You need to render videos with higher bitrate because these 1080p videos look like 480p Also try getting a 4K if you are in a position to get one, or if you are already recording with 4k, try to render the videos in 4k with high bitrate
I have detour noir, lalique white in black, maison alhambra leyden, and amber oud exlusif bleu. First two are good, near identical. Leyden is okay but has a menthol note I don't like. Amber oud exlusif bleu is definitely the one to get. Long lasting and very high quality.
My hubby has Layton which I love the way it smells on him. I’m thinking should I get this one for myself..hmmm. By the way, I got Sartorial Nuit for hubby. It’s a winner.
Can i ask if it smells anything like Pure xs from paco rabanne? Because i really hate the scent of pure xs and dont want to make mistake with this one.. ? I am tempted to buy layton and wanna get al harmain first to check due to not being able to check the layton in any of the shops.. i really hate Sauvage used it 2 or 3 times and left the whole bottle
@@alimazhoud6704man idk what ppl are talking about. I just got my bottle last night sprayed it 4 times and it was soooo strong it choked me out of the bathroom and woke my girlfriend up lol. The shit smells delicious though!
About 8 months ago clone vids started popping up & now many reviewers are all over them - there’s even 1 reviewer who does 60% clone reviews. What I’ve found is you can get a clone for $50 or a 9ml decant of the real deal for $50 The decant will last a year once it’s in your rotation. (maybe 2 depending on number of fragrance you have) The full size will last SEVERAL years in your rotation and you’ll find something better before you empty it. *but I say this because I’m maxing out at 15 full size bottles and I’m at 11.

I got Detour Noir earlier this week. I like the fragrance, it gets close to Layton. The downside, it doesn’t last. It’s a faint skin scent by hour 5, kinda disappointing.
Abyone else get almost a pure pipe tobacco smell from this ? It smells amazing but maybe it has to sit awhile i just got it. Has a similarity to pure malt then its just pure pipe tobacco after that. ?
Yes this is a secret gem I use very frequently it comes in a horrible bottle but I just decanted it into another bottle with a better atomizer anywho the juice is killer’ it’s perfect cause I can limit my usage of Layton
Recently got detour noir. Haven't tried Layton, but I sure hope Layton's opening isn't that awful. Decent on the dry down but it doesn't last the longest. Plus it's not that great on clothes. I can't imagine Layton being this bad. I just can't. I can only imagine Layton being 100,000x times better than this.
The Woods Collection Dusk, is more Layton than Layton Brother. Simply the best dupe out there! Detour Noir is overhyped and I'm tired of hearing about it. Lol.
@@richmoneycash1 I highly disagree, while it smells very good. It doesn't perform as well as Exclusif Bleu. I only own the Bharara Bleu but when I had the Exclusif Bleu compliments on Day one at work.
It had to have been reformed, if that’s the review on it now compared to others, mine is not as mentholic in the opening as Layton but mine is easy 95% on and lasts 10+ hrs, projection easily 2-3 hrs. 😕 I’ve had both formulations of Layton.
Only a "Layton killer" if you like a powdery version! Also BowTie, this is redundant content, so many reviews in the community with this knowledge. Just saying ;)
Clones, copycats, bootleg, inspired by, etc……. I’ve got to be saving $120 minimum to buy one. Otherwise I’ll just buy a decant of the real deal. Unless I simply love Love LOVE the DNA.
New? No. Layton killer? Also no. I have both. Detour has the drydown close but that's about at a 70% range. Flat compared to the OG. For the price tho I highly recommend it.

Man, I gotta give it to you. I really appreciate your wardrobe. 11/10 style

With Al haramain? Damn the OG Layton around $230

Great bro. I have many expensive colognes, but I am looking to save. This was on the list. Thank you for the review.
Man must agree with you on this one. It is very very close to Layton in fact there is very little difference in the smell but a huge difference in the price . 👍
I like this one. It kinda reminded me of Burberry London, but I'm not 100% sure since I don't have it anymore.
Had this for awhile now and it’s probably one of the closest spot on clone I’ve experienced. Peace

Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try it and have a blessed day
my bottle smells so close and its even stronger and longer lasting. not sure why i bought layton but still cool to collect em
BowTie has been KILLING IT. Keep it up Sir

I have both Detour Noir and the Amber Oud Exclusif Bleu. Great Layton clones!
Amber oud exclusif is x4 the price compared to detour .... Out of my range price
My hubby has Layton which I love the way it smells on him. I’m thinking should I get this one for myself..hmmm. By the way, I got Sartorial Nuit for hubby. It’s a winner.
Skip this and get Al Haramain Amber Oud Exclusif Bleu, it is much better and smells amazing..
Musta got a bad batch smells terrible to me 😔
3 month Update let it sit reviewed it and it is amazing 🎉🎉🎉

So.. how was the bottle?
@@otxpsie I do not recommend
@@ItsMike81why
I smelled it and it IS nice
But, imo it ISN'T Layton
plus, the damn bottle fell apart in my hand

Let it macerate for a few weeks! My bottle smells much better and last much longer after letting it sit for a month.
I disagree with him here. I think it is 80% close to the Exclusif. Performance is bad though.
Do 7 sprays on pressure points
Heya guys just wondering if I will like this as I hate crazy which smells like Pegasus literally the worst smell ever to me ..
LAYTON OPENING ITS BRIGHT AS THE SUN... I GOT "FIRE YOUR DESIRE" AFTER WATCHING UR VIDEO!! ITS AWESOME🙄🙄😊
I love the gaiac wood & violet combo in layton-
Amazing review, i also love your energy man, keep it up!
Abyone else get almost a pure pipe tobacco smell from this ? It smells amazing but maybe it has to sit awhile i just got it. Has a similarity to pure malt then its just pure pipe tobacco after that. ?
Layton and Greenley is my go to my wife love them. A good brother question why ARMAF UNTOLD still on backorder?
Yes this is a secret gem I use very frequently it comes in a horrible bottle but I just decanted it into another bottle with a better atomizer anywho the juice is killer’ it’s perfect cause I can limit my usage of Layton
Much success! God bless!
Bowtie, you need to get Al Haramain Amber Oud Exclusif Bleu, it' is much better and smoother version of Layton.
I second that.
I third that motion and it’s the extrait version
Apparently it’s not Al Haramain though. It doesn’t have the name on the package, and they say it isn’t theirs.
It’s also third the price 💀
@@yusuff7_ 💯 facts
Moderate performer. Al Haramain Orientica Amber Oud Execlusif Extrait De Parfum Bleu Eau is 95% accurate with long lasting scent.
Can you plz do the lataffa bright peach vs tom ford bitter peach
have you try The Woods Dusk ? I think its a lot better than detour noir in terms of clone of layton.
I was saying the same thing. These reviewers are overhyping Detour Noir, but it does not outshine Dusk.
To me It isn’t but I like the way it smells but Layton just does it better 🎉😂
Sure, for 10x the price
@@africancoast3x. Get your discount on
of course OG STILL THE BEST $230

I heard the vanilla is better on DN
The Woods Collection Dusk, is more Layton than Layton Brother. Simply the best dupe out there! Detour Noir is overhyped and I'm tired of hearing about it. Lol.
The note breakdown is wrong. No almonds
I just gor mine today...no idea about the real smell of Layton...but Detour Noir is so good!
Detour Noir is the same if not better than Layton. I regret buying Layton, not worth the price.
Al harmain is the pride of our country Bangladesh 🇧🇩 thank you for making this video sir 🙏
*Amber Oud Exclusif Bleu > Detour Noir*
Bharara Bleu>>>>
@@richmoneycash1 I highly disagree, while it smells very good. It doesn't perform as well as Exclusif Bleu. I only own the Bharara Bleu but when I had the Exclusif Bleu compliments on Day one at work.
Way to long Intro. Détour Noir review starts at 3:41 You are welcome.
BTFG 💯💪🏾
How is the longetivity
i’ve heard it’s 8-12 hours
I find al haramain similar to bad boy Herrera
What are the equivalent clones for Layton exclusive, Carolise, Pegasus and Herod?
I think it's a good scent but it's not layton! At all!! Smells great I do recommend it! But not close to layton
Good but not great. White in black, great
One is the original and the second is a completely different scent. What a killer are you talking about?!
It had to have been reformed, if that’s the review on it now compared to others, mine is not as mentholic in the opening as Layton but mine is easy 95% on and lasts 10+ hrs, projection easily 2-3 hrs. 😕 I’ve had both formulations of Layton.
Mine is beast 10 sprays last 12hrs+ and it has same performance as my vintage Layton batch
@@livinglife3230 I bet like afnan 9pm it was reformed, 9pm use to hittttt to.
@@crownedhydef I got my afnan 9pm over a year ago & it’s on par wit my vintage ultra male in performance & they pretty close scent wise
@@livinglife3230 9pm is more powdery imo.
Exclusif bleu last 4h

Why would you wanna kill Layton 😮
A bit late to this 😅. It’s been known for months
Only a "Layton killer" if you like a powdery version! Also BowTie, this is redundant content, so many reviews in the community with this knowledge. Just saying ;)
He's doing a "killer" series it appears. He has done a few others.
Not redundant. Ppl wanna see his take on the fragrance because he’s highly respected for his opinions.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Clones, copycats, bootleg, inspired by, etc……. I’ve got to be saving $120 minimum to buy one. Otherwise I’ll just buy a decant of the real deal. Unless I simply love Love LOVE the DNA.
No.
You’re quite late for that bro! Peace ✌️❤
New????!
Al Haramain Bleu Exclusif is better
Hells yeah
"new"
😂😂😂
New? No. Layton killer? Also no. I have both. Detour has the drydown close but that's about at a 70% range. Flat compared to the OG. For the price tho I highly recommend it.
It's not new
You are pretty late, man! 😁
Jesus loves you❤.Repent of your sins and turn to Jesus before its too late❤
Omg it sucks. It doesn't even smell good. It smells synthetic and cheap
No way
