Great list of top 5 Melissa! My current top 5 in no particular order are: 1. Prada Luna Rossa Black 2. Kajal Faris 3. Gisada Ambassador 4. PDM Layton 5. Xerjoff Nio Shout out from Costa Rica 🇨🇷✌🏽
This vid is just inspiring me to find my own faves instead of taking your word as gospel. I love the vibe of someone having their faves and talking about them. That said, I would want to try salt and pepper sometime in the distant future. But for now, I'm a noob who still needs to smell La Nuit de l'Homme at least once.
Nice list! My current top 5 are (no order) 1. Creed Green Irish Tweed 2. Xerjoff Naxos 3. TF Ombre Leather 4. Prada Amber Pour Homme 5. TF Noir Extreme OR Chanel Sycomore
Drinking more water will do so much more for your skin and for your fragrances than applying lotion, people are so quick to forget to get their moisture from inside rather than out
@@melissanacional9662 Melissa, Great list. I wasn’t sure if we’d see Ombré Nuit. 😁👍 Praying for you. 🙏 It’s always challenging when your relationship changes. Keep rocking. You’re Awesome! 🙌🫶
Melissa , I must say your top 5 fragrances is legendary and I’m glad my top 5 is not your top 5 . You have your own taste and scents when it comes to fragrances
My my my your channel has grown from when i started watching. It's good to see it. I literally can't choose a top 5 😂. For the sake of the video and interaction purpose ill pick 5 fragrance DNA Barbershop Oriental Chypre Gourmand Blue
Melissa, Great video. Your list doesn’t surprise lol. I guessed all 5. My top five are as followed: 1. By Kilian Apple Brandy on the Rocks 2. Xerjoff Naxos 3. MFK Aqua Celestia Forte/Cologne Forte 4. PDM Sedley 5. Roja Isola Blu I’ve been collecting over the past 3 years. I am very selective. For me it’s about the quality vs quantity.
Thank you for the content, by far my favorite frag tuber. Can you please make a video on the top 5 niche houses and the top fragrances from each house and rank them please. Thank you soooo very much.
Yoooo! I got a precious liquid sample and I swear what you say about them are spot on. Salt and pepper is whatever to me but the ladies love it. Aqua oud was the same way (but that one is growing on me rapidly, gonna have to get the bottle 😭.) But man when I wear aqua oud, I get the hey who is that, you smell amazing. Like really amazing. Those kind of compliments are perfect
Fragrance has woven itself in and out of my life, while never being completely absent. My fave 5 that represent unique instances of reintroduction are: - Guess Men (1991) - D&G The One - Tokyomilk Dark Tainted Love - Demeter Fragrance Dirt - PDM Carlisle Many others besides, but these each evoke their own time and place for me over a few decades of smelling good.
To my nose Tuxedo is rose on rose and more rose with a touch of patchouli. Can't stand it personally. I have a full bottle for sale. Afternoon swim is beautiful. Nice video.
Think I've always been fascinated by perfumes, but more advanced introducing niche ones last year. My top 5 are: Xerjoff Naxos Creed Absolu Aventus YSL La nuit de l'homme YSL Tuxedo Pdm Haltane
Thank you Melissa 😊 here is my top 5 1. Black Phantom By Kilian 2. Tuxedo Yves Saint Laurent 3. Angels' Share By Kilian. 4. Naxos Xerjoff 5. Dior Homme Parfum
Love your honesty , great videos , I don’t like the way the hype around fragrance is shaping the community especially on platforms like TikTok , way too many frag-bros these days
I’m going to share my current favorites. In no particular order: Guess Seductive Blue for Her Pink MahogHany’s Pas Encore Nomme Lattafa’s Sakeena Guess Seductive Red for Her Lattafa’s Bade’e Al Oud Sublime I was able to sample Loumari’s Porthole a while back. I’ve already decided that scent will be my first niche fragrance purchase. I was “perfume shamed” on a different channel by a fellow subscriber. She “reprimanded” me because I said that I was going to purchase inexpensive perfumes. She said that I shouldn’t “clutter” up my collection with inexpensive perfumes. I should have asked her to buy me some expensive perfumes, so my collection wouldn’t be “cluttered” with perfume I might actually like and wear, aka my cheapie perfumes.😆. If you think my choices are too “cheap” for you because my choices aren’t from expensive designer brands or niche houses, please keep any negative comments to yourself. Thanks.
Hi Melissa. I just got my first cologne heavily inspired by your videos… 1. la nuit de l'homme Quick question though… What lotion do you use or would recommend?
Great list! Side note, I thought about you today when layering. I layered LAyton with YSL, sprayed Layton on first then double the sprays of YSL on top since that is not as strong as Layton and OMG so many compliments! The dry down is insane :)
Been in it for 6 months. Oud Wood, Carlisle, Sedley, and The One are my favorites. Been feeling out another fragrance for warm weather. Curious about BdC Parfum, Sauvage Elixir, and Salt & Pepper. My wife will make the final call on that lol.
Bdc Parfum is basically a soap that smells citrusy and VEEEERY luxurious. It is the best and most complete blue fragrance. I highly recommend it. The performance is so amazing. Logevity, on me at least, is over 12h, leaves a sexy scent trail and it projects like an arm lenght which is enough. But the price point is a little bit too much. I suggest you to get the biggest volume bottle as it is the best price/volume one.
Cool video. For couple years I only had Boss bottled n last year I bought tf ombré leather. I was good until I started watching frag videos on TH-cam about a month ago…🤦🏻♂️lol. Since then I’ve added Ysl la nuit de’homme, Guerlain l’homme ideal edp and Jazz club. Couple days ago I blind ordered Hacivat, Terre d’Herme edt. Next I’m hoping to pick up Noir extreme parfum Bleu de Chanel parfum and a couple from PDM. Probably Greenley and Harrod. Then hopefully chill for a bit..
I hope your blind buys work out for you. I learned about decant websites about a year and a half ago. I was able to purchase all of the talked about scents without spending too much money. It’s a good thing because I don’t seem to like the most talked about scents.😆 The last time I went on to the PDM website, you could purchase decants. I haven’t looked at the website in a while, so I don’t know if they still sell them.
I love the notes of Tuxedo. I just don’t like it. I’ve tried to make myself like it. It’s just blah to me. I’ve never heard of salt and pepper. I would like to try that now. Top 5. 1. Green Irish Tweed - my into into niche fragrances. 2. Reflection Man 3. Layton 4. Tobacco Vanile 5. Neroli Portifino Aqua
Hello Melissa I just wanted to say our of all the fragrance reviewers on TH-cam I listen to u the most bcuz your real about a fragrance and not just telling me what I want to hear
Millisa?? I'm a collector and haven't commented on your vids in a minute but I noticed you promo salt n pepper before and I've never tested or tried it what's it similar to or what out there reminds you of it? Please let me know sincerely thank you....Johnny from south Boston ☘
I remember my first fragrance was Harley Davidson red given from my sister at the age of 16 and after it was discontinued. A few years later I discovered la nuit d lomme and couldn’t believe it was exactly the same fragrance as that from Harley. Now I got a few samples from Parfume de Marly because of the hype , thank God I didn’t blind buy one but after wearing Layton I noticed it was kind of like la nuit but more complex, dense like a ysl la nuit on steroids.
I'm (sort of) in the fragrance game for about 35 years and my 5 (or actually 7 🤔) most complimented ones are probably: Dior Fahrenheit edt (original form.), Boss Bottled edt, Polo RL Big Pony Coll. 1 (blue), EM Molecule 01, Guess Seduction Blue, Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc & (last but not least) YSL La Nuit de L'Homme edt. 🤓
I have Guess Seductive Blue for Women. I love it. It’s one of the few fragrances I’ve worn that has been complimented. Amazon was out of it for months. I was able to purchase a one ounce bottle which is now half full. I’ve only had it for 3 months.😆. Obviously, it’s a favorite.
@@melissanacional9662 i've been collecting since 2011ish and no matter how many niche or new scents come out i always find myself wearing the nuit d l homme OR layering it !! molecule 01 and that YSL is perfection
My top 5 is 1. Dior Homme 2020 2. Ambre Nuit 3. La Nuit De L’Homme 4. One Million Royal 5. Spicebomb EDT Salt & Pepper I can’t wear it gives off big time Oud Ispahan vibes and it gives me a headache every time. I love Melissa’s takes on fragrances and Ambre Nuit was such a big hit for me based on her recommendation.
I feel TUXEDO is like Versace Eros that you get bored of it quickly cause smell 100% designer or maybe it's just me that I use to smell more niche than designer.
So stuck between Elysium and Creed Silver Mountain Water! This video did not help😂 Edit: Just saw you had a video comparing these two, what a coincidence. will watch that
Salt and pepper is one fragrance from a brand that also has scents I don’t like lol. I always say buy where you’re comfy, you don’t need to support the channel if you don’t want to
Just got tuxedo decant last night, and it is amazing indeed!
On a side note, please put time stamps girl! Would be greatly appreciated
Great list of top 5 Melissa! My current top 5 in no particular order are:
1. Prada Luna Rossa Black
2. Kajal Faris
3. Gisada Ambassador
4. PDM Layton
5. Xerjoff Nio
Shout out from Costa Rica 🇨🇷✌🏽
Wow are you for real at that #1? What was once my least favorite gets me the most compliments. Lol
@@Hialeah1925 I know Prada Black is a love or hate fragrance but in my experience it just works and I get attention when I wear it.
Prada black is king 👑 😤
Excellent list.
“There skin is ashy” sent me 😭😭😭 I LOVE how real you keep it 🤝🏾
This vid is just inspiring me to find my own faves instead of taking your word as gospel. I love the vibe of someone having their faves and talking about them. That said, I would want to try salt and pepper sometime in the distant future. But for now, I'm a noob who still needs to smell La Nuit de l'Homme at least once.
La Nuit smells so good. A skin scent though.
Appreciate your consistency
Thanks for the love!
Nice list! My current top 5 are (no order)
1. Creed Green Irish Tweed
2. Xerjoff Naxos
3. TF Ombre Leather
4. Prada Amber Pour Homme
5. TF Noir Extreme OR Chanel Sycomore
Drinking more water will do so much more for your skin and for your fragrances than applying lotion, people are so quick to forget to get their moisture from inside rather than out
People that moisturize already do both lol
Truly a myth
Unless your body is dehydrated, drinking more water will not change anything. Use a moisturiser
@@melissanacional9662
Melissa,
Great list. I wasn’t sure if we’d see Ombré Nuit. 😁👍
Praying for you. 🙏 It’s always challenging when your relationship changes. Keep rocking. You’re Awesome! 🙌🫶
Melissa , I must say your top 5 fragrances is legendary and I’m glad my top 5 is not your top 5 . You have your own taste and scents when it comes to fragrances
Can't taker her seriously after she hated Terre d'Hermes and Encre Noire. Like two of the top 5 greatest of all time for me
My top 5 favorites are:
1. Carlisle PDM
2. Dulce Diablo NP
3. Checkmate MG
4. Acqua di Gio Profondo GA
5. Narcotic Delight Initio
All of your recommendations I have purchased for my uncle and he loves them he gets attend everywhere he goes keep up the good work.
so dead about the ashy part lol, but you put me on la nuit de l’homme and i love it so much
I know you smell amazing
My 2 top signature scents and most complimented fragrances out of my 300+ fragrances are:
- Elysium by Roja
- Layton Exclusif by Parfums de Marley
How long does each of them last?
My my my your channel has grown from when i started watching. It's good to see it.
I literally can't choose a top 5 😂.
For the sake of the video and interaction purpose ill pick 5 fragrance DNA
Barbershop
Oriental
Chypre
Gourmand
Blue
Melissa,
Great video. Your list doesn’t surprise lol. I guessed all 5. My top five are as followed:
1. By Kilian Apple Brandy on the Rocks
2. Xerjoff Naxos
3. MFK Aqua Celestia Forte/Cologne Forte
4. PDM Sedley
5. Roja Isola Blu
I’ve been collecting over the past 3 years. I am very selective. For me it’s about the quality vs quantity.
Sedley is heat
Hey Melissa, which one do you think is better? Roja Elysium or Bleu de Chanel EDT? Or are they similar?
Thank you for the content, by far my favorite frag tuber. Can you please make a video on the top 5 niche houses and the top fragrances from each house and rank them please. Thank you soooo very much.
Love your channel.im learning so much…Have yet to find my go-to fragrance but my favorite notes are tobacco, vanilla, cinnamon, bourbon, & chocolate.
Try Angel Share, Tobacco Vanille and Side Effect :)
Yoooo! I got a precious liquid sample and I swear what you say about them are spot on. Salt and pepper is whatever to me but the ladies love it. Aqua oud was the same way (but that one is growing on me rapidly, gonna have to get the bottle 😭.) But man when I wear aqua oud, I get the hey who is that, you smell amazing. Like really amazing. Those kind of compliments are perfect
AO pulls in a unique way. S&P in a sexy way. Nice pick ups!
I’ve got 3 of those 5 fragrances…Tuxedo, La Nuit de l’home, and Elysium. Great minds think alike.
Fragrance has woven itself in and out of my life, while never being completely absent. My fave 5 that represent unique instances of reintroduction are:
- Guess Men (1991)
- D&G The One
- Tokyomilk Dark Tainted Love
- Demeter Fragrance Dirt
- PDM Carlisle
Many others besides, but these each evoke their own time and place for me over a few decades of smelling good.
To my nose Tuxedo is rose on rose and more rose with a touch of patchouli. Can't stand it personally. I have a full bottle for sale. Afternoon swim is beautiful. Nice video.
Think I've always been fascinated by perfumes, but more advanced introducing niche ones last year.
My top 5 are:
Xerjoff Naxos
Creed Absolu Aventus
YSL La nuit de l'homme
YSL Tuxedo
Pdm Haltane
I have YSL L’Homme Intense and it’s great as well. Think that really got me into Niche.
The dry down on Elysium is why i wear it.
Thank you Melissa 😊 here is my top 5
1. Black Phantom By Kilian
2. Tuxedo Yves Saint Laurent
3. Angels' Share By Kilian.
4. Naxos Xerjoff
5. Dior Homme Parfum
🔥
Love your honesty , great videos , I don’t like the way the hype around fragrance is shaping the community especially on platforms like TikTok , way too many frag-bros these days
I forgot about afternoon swim but guessed the rest. Needless to say I’m a fan. ❤
I’m going to share my current favorites.
In no particular order:
Guess Seductive Blue for Her
Pink MahogHany’s Pas Encore Nomme
Lattafa’s Sakeena
Guess Seductive Red for Her
Lattafa’s Bade’e Al Oud Sublime
I was able to sample Loumari’s Porthole a while back. I’ve already decided that scent will be my first niche fragrance purchase.
I was “perfume shamed” on a different channel by a fellow subscriber. She “reprimanded” me because I said that I was going to purchase inexpensive perfumes. She said that I shouldn’t “clutter” up my collection with inexpensive perfumes.

You should mention
WHICH FRAGRANCE

1. Jazz Club
2.The One Edp
3. La Nuit d’Lomme
4. By the Fireplace
5. Givenchy Pi
Let me guess #1 is Elysium and a close #2 is Salt and Pepper?! Somewhere in there is Afternoon Swim and maybe Tuxedo although it’s been a while.
Been in it for 6 months. Oud Wood, Carlisle, Sedley, and The One are my favorites. Been feeling out another fragrance for warm weather. Curious about BdC Parfum, Sauvage Elixir, and Salt & Pepper. My wife will make the final call on that lol.

@@imature0117 appreciate it! can’t wait to get my nose on it now
Before watching this video, my guesses would be:
Elysium (Duh lol)
Ambre Nuit
Salt & Pepper
Layton
Afternoon Swim
Let's see how many I get right

I hope your blind buys work out for you.
I learned about decant websites about a year and a half ago. I was able to purchase all of the talked about scents without spending too much money. It’s a good thing because I don’t seem to like the most talked about scents.😆
The last time I went on to the PDM website, you could purchase decants. I haven’t looked at the website in a while, so I don’t know if they still sell them.
elysium my fav too. its gets alotta negative reviews online but the whole scent is so rich person smelling lol
Before watching… I say
1. Elisium
2. Carlisle
3. Tuxedo
4. Salt & pepper
5.The oud one from presious liquid
I guessed all five 🤣
Good stuff, Melissa!

I love the notes of Tuxedo. I just don’t like it. I’ve tried to make myself like it. It’s just blah to me. I’ve never heard of salt and pepper. I would like to try that now.
Top 5.
1. Green Irish Tweed - my into into niche fragrances.
2. Reflection Man
3. Layton
4. Tobacco Vanile
5. Neroli Portifino Aqua
Can you do a top 5 of all time to smell on a woman?
Hello Melissa I just wanted to say our of all the fragrance reviewers on TH-cam I listen to u the most bcuz your real about a fragrance and not just telling me what I want to hear
I appreciate you!
Melissa should do a va video of salt & pepper vs Elysium !!
My top 5: naxos, reflection 45, noir extreme, aventus cologne, herod
My top five: Creed Original Santal, Burberry Hero, Initio Rehab, Kilian Angels Share, and Armani Code
Millisa?? I'm a collector and haven't commented on your vids in a minute but I noticed you promo salt n pepper before and I've never tested or tried it what's it similar to or what out there reminds you of it? Please let me know sincerely thank you....Johnny from south Boston ☘
Guessed 4 out of 5 but I got the order wrong. Thought you’d rank Tuxedo or Afternoon Swim the highest
Then you clearly havent been watching her channel for long since she always has Elysium as her number 1
I remember my first fragrance was Harley Davidson red given from my sister at the age of 16 and after it was discontinued. A few years later I discovered la nuit d lomme and couldn’t believe it was exactly the same fragrance as that from Harley. Now I got a few samples from Parfume de Marly because of the hype , thank God I didn’t blind buy one but after wearing Layton I noticed it was kind of like la nuit but more complex, dense like a ysl la nuit on steroids.
I'm (sort of) in the fragrance game for about 35 years and my 5 (or actually 7 🤔) most complimented ones are probably:
Dior Fahrenheit edt (original form.), Boss Bottled edt, Polo RL Big Pony Coll. 1 (blue), EM Molecule 01, Guess Seduction Blue, Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc & (last but not least) YSL La Nuit de L'Homme edt. 🤓
Guess seduction is a sleeper. People don’t know
I have Guess Seductive Blue for Women. I love it. It’s one of the few fragrances I’ve worn that has been complimented.
Amazon was out of it for months. I was able to purchase a one ounce bottle which is now half full. I’ve only had it for 3 months.😆. Obviously, it’s a favorite.
Luxury - Frapin 1270
Designer - Hermes - Terre de Hermes Eau Givree
Clone - Lattafa - Maahir Legacy
ok i've seen too many of ur videos because i knew every one of these you'd pick haha !!! all great options! i'm a nuit d l homme for life !!
La Nuit is heat
@@melissanacional9662 i've been collecting since 2011ish and no matter how many niche or new scents come out i always find myself wearing the nuit d l homme OR layering it !! molecule 01 and that YSL is perfection
Literally the perfect combo
Guess:
La nuit de lhomme
Salt and pepper
Elisium
Afternoon swim
Don't know 5th.
I thought tuxedo but I didn't know if it wouldn't be in it.
How interesting about the Tuxedo fragrance change after COVID.
My top 5 is
1. Dior Homme 2020
2. Ambre Nuit
3. La Nuit De L’Homme
4. One Million Royal
5. Spicebomb EDT
Salt & Pepper I can’t wear it gives off big time Oud Ispahan vibes and it gives me a headache every time. I love Melissa’s takes on fragrances and Ambre Nuit was such a big hit for me based on her recommendation.
One mil royal doesn't get the love it deserves. But I get compliments every time
Melissa is the YSL La Nuit Da L'Homme a EDT or Parfum that you use?
EDT
I feel TUXEDO is like Versace Eros that you get bored of it quickly cause smell 100% designer or maybe it's just me that I use to smell more niche than designer.
I think I’ll use Afternoon swim to replace my summer fragrance D&G Lightblue intense or maybe Blue Agave who knows
I have tygar but I am interested in afternoon swim , do they smell similar ?
Got my Elysium recently from aura for 170
Amazing price!
aventus cologne,
percival
silver mountain water
adg profumo
What happened to Ambre Nuit & Tom Ford uod wood?
Instead of LA nuit De Lhomme my go to is Avant Garde Lanvin.. smell close but better to me.
So stuck between Elysium and Creed Silver Mountain Water! This video did not help😂
Edit: Just saw you had a video comparing these two, what a coincidence. will watch that
My number #1 Creed Viking
WHATS THAT? YSL LA NUIT DE L HOMME LE PARFUM OR INTENSE
Oligarch is now called isola blu.
YSL fan girl ahahaa❤
POUND TOWN!!!
I don’t wear fragrances to get compliments. I do it for me.
what about escentric 02?
Im suprised givenchy pi is not on the list
Melissa, Do you try Poker Face by Ted Lapidus ?
Chanel Sycomore
Lalique Encre Noire
Terre d'Hermes
Banana Republic Vintage Green 78
Tour 1920 The Origin
What about layton?
La Nweee btw. French origin
Olé 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I thought Tuxedo would have been number 1 for you.
why dont you review arab fragrances.
I have

First :)
La Nooey lol😅. Check your pronunciation.
I don't like patchouli either 🤢
melissa big fan of your channel. but how big of a check is salt n pepper writing u?? Cmon now be honest
Salt and pepper is one fragrance from a brand that also has scents I don’t like lol. I always say buy where you’re comfy, you don’t need to support the channel if you don’t want to
seems a little unwarranted? like i said BIG FAN OF YOUR CHANNEL... @@melissanacional9662
If u a big fan then you know she’s been talking about s&p looong before there was a discount code😂
