I highly recommend you check out Scentual Obsessions! They actually have the closest inspiration to Afternoon swim and it lasts for 8+ hours. Their Elysium and Lafayette St are also pretty much 1:1 inspirations. If Alexandria doesn’t have something I want or it didn’t perform like I want, can count on Scentual obsessions to hit it out of the park!
Visionary is 119 bucks plus taxes for a 100 ml. Thanks for the review bro, but I will never buy a clone in that price tagg unless they close all the middle eastern houses!! Long life to Lattafa, Maison Alhambra, Fragrance World, Paris corner, and the rest!!❤❤❤❤❤
I see your point but I’ll take a higher quality clone over a low quality clone any day. Im NEVER spending more than $250 for 100mL. I bought Oud For Glory for $25 I wish they would have put more into the juice and charged double. They are cloning a $300 fragrance. You aren’t going to bridge a $275 quality gap and keep it under $25. A company can make a HIGH QUALITY fragrance and keep It around $100-$150 and still make a profit. I like inexpensive clones not cheap clones.
Honestly.... I'd agree to a degree.... depends on the original price n the closeness of the Alexandria.... I'd buy black panther from them easily n their oajan clone because those r close n the original price for oajan is 250 ish n tygar 400...but something like dark knight....I'd pass on
Afternoon splash and visionary are top notch. I have l’immensity and although it’s quality product, personally I’m not a fan of the scent profile, it reminds me of issey miyaki type profile that I’m not crazy about. On my skin it also has an odd celery note (might be just my skin). But if you are into that profile it’s definitely a pick up. Haven’t smelled any of the originals so I can’t say how close they are but the LV clones from Alexandria all smell high quality .
What's up my man! I'm really stuck as far as what to do on these LV clones. I have no doubt that Alexandria has the closest dupes in terms of scent profile and performance. But I am VERY impressed at how some of the other houses have copied the LV bottle. I gotta have that LV style bottle. May go with Jean Lowe because their bottles have magnetic caps. Afternoon Swim and Immortal are two I'm looking at. I got decisions to make. Thanks for posting.
Hey, yea Alexandria are a lot more consistent in how good their clones are. Yea the Middle Eastern houses have cloned the bottles but those are a lot more hit and miss imo.
@@jamarr911 True that. I'm having a hard time making a choice amongst those houses that have duped the bottle. It's kinda looking like Jean Lowe Immortel has the best combo of presentation/scent profile/performance.
I like your presentation. I keep ordering Alexandria samples and I like almost all of them. It’s crazy how good they are. For me they beat dua by miles, even though I have like 12 duas
I have Afternoon Splash, and Pacific Coast but Black Panther is the TRUTH, sprayed after that shit sat for a month became even better, only thing I regret is not getting the 100ml instead of the 60
@@vincefry9225 ill say this…I think there are definitely some men that could pull this off and do it with the utmost confidence. It’s not the typical feminine scent imo, but at least for me, it’s just not a scent I think I could pull off. Imo you have to look a certain way, dress a certain way, and have a certain type of confidence to be able to pull this off as a man.
@@vincefry9225 yea it’s def something I would love to smell on another woman though…it would almost have me considering paying her bills is how good it smells 🤣
Just got my visionary yesterday. Its opening is slightly different but after than that it's really really close. Im waiting on the le meteore from Alexandria .. I'm looking forward to it too, and next will be black panther possibly.
So what you're saying is get the LV clones from Alexandria. Haha. I did notice Alexandria is pretty pricey. I purchased a couple of bottles of FRAGRANCE WORLD L'INFINITE JACQUES YVES FOR MAN/WOMAN from your recommendation. It just came in from a discounter I frequent. Looks like the Lucianno Sunset Swim is sold out. I got two bottles of that, too. Cheers.
Yea, I havent smelled all of them but for the most part all of the Alexandria LV clones have been very good. In most cases better than the other cheaper brands. But overall Alexandria typically has the best clones.
I believe that today’s clones are the future of fragrances. They are not like the clones of the past, that had only a mild resemblance to the fragrances they were copying. TODAYS clones smell practically the same as the originals, and many of them last as long as they do as well, which is a BIG difference from yesterday’s clones. How much longer will people spend $300-$400 for a fragrance when they can buy one that smells just as good for $100 bucks or less?
I definitely agree, I feel like the only times I really notice real differences are with certain designers that use propriety molecules and ingredients or niche brands that use super high quality naturals. But even then, a lot of the clones usually come within at least 85-90% for a fraction of the coast.
Sir you been duped. A chance to experience a luxury fragrance cheaper is appreciated but paying $65-120 for the OG that cost $130 for 200ml I choose the OG and or paying $65-120 for a dupe that’s only clones open or dry down is dupe ed.
It looks like Lucianno has upped their game. I just saw these released. Prices are comparable to the rest they put out before the hype train took off. Haha. Cheers.

Excellent breakdown. Im buying that stellar moments
Thank you bro, and yea that one is pretty good also.

Those brands buy mass premade oils and mix them with alcohol

Buy a 30 ml and use their discount code.alexandrias worth it imo
I see your point but I’ll take a higher quality clone over a low quality clone any day. Im NEVER spending more than $250 for 100mL.

A company can make a HIGH QUALITY fragrance and keep
It around $100-$150 and still make
a profit. I like inexpensive clones not cheap clones.

You really need 100ml? Maybe because I have 50+ bottles, but 30 or 60ml is more than enough from Alexandria. 100ml seems a little greedy to me.
Let them say whatever but for us we say Long live lattafa long live paris corner long live fragrance world

Facts, afternoon splash & visionary are awesome. I’ll end up picking up Imagination, it’ll be the only LV I purchase

You could have named this video Alexandria closest colognes!
Exactly!
Other names for video wheel house, ballpark and or kinda close
I have Afternoon Splash, and Pacific Coast but Black Panther is the TRUTH, sprayed after that shit sat for a month became even better, only thing I regret is not getting the 100ml instead of the 60
I think I might revisit Black Panther and see if it still gives me a headache like it used to when I had it.
May order stellar moments, Never smelled that scent dna, But I do like the way alexandria does LV fragrances
It’s very nice and addictive but id say sample it first. Imo it’s a very feminine scent.
That's why I have stayed away from it. I am getting into the moore feminine lately. IS it leaning slightly feminine, or largely feminine?
@@vincefry9225 ill say this…I think there are definitely some men that could pull this off and do it with the utmost confidence.

@@jamarr911 great answer, I think i will pass. you tolerate feminine scents even more so than I do

Le Meteore is different imo for sure but still pretty good. Im liking it more and more as I wear it more. Ive been wearing it as a gym scent mainly.
Visionary is a little more scratchy in the opening than imagination. But it goes away after a couple minutes
Great Review and comparisons ❤

Do you think it better than karus blue spice147
Do you have any experience with Barrett fragrances? I keep hearing about them but haven’t tried any yet.
Hello, I do not as of yet.
@@jamarr911 no worries I appreciate the reply. Great channel!
good video bro !
Thank You bro! I appreciate it!
Waiting on a great pacific chill clone
I heard Alexandria’s is good too. I love Pacific chill.
Pacific Coast by Alexandria is good and Montagne Parfums Chilly Pacific.

@@shmoopiebear longevity time?
@@user-ex3zb3tq5w No idea on the Pacific Chill clone. Although, the Lucianno have proven to be pretty good. At least, average. Cheers.
I think you should have name this video best Alexandria Fragrance Louis Vuitton clones..respectfully!!

Thanks for letting me know, I just picked those up.
They cost to much! You may as well get the real thing! Not interested
Too many LV clone reviews! Most of the LV are pretty boring and way overpriced! I think most people are over them! Sorry!
