Oh I’m sure the nobile you got back then was amazing ! Hopefully you can find another bottle soon ! Thank you for watching and commenting dude

It’s one of the greatest of all time no doubt

Are you shittin me, that’s horrible

Unfortunately max 2 hours of longevity for me, how is it for you? (Current formulation)

Yeap

100% they are classics that still work and will always work !

Lomani is a Swiss Army knife scent it just works ! And definitely get bogart signature !

Esencia is awesome! Bogart signature has become one of my favorites fougere’s easily ! Glad you like it !

For an experiment try Al Rehab's Dakkar if you can get it. Roll On oil and the EDP spray. Some say that it is close to the original formulation of Drakkar Noir.

@@veritasvincit2745 Thank you for the help: I hope to try it eventually.

I recommend the low cost Classic Match impression of Drakkar Noir. It smells exactly like vintage Drakkar Noir and it last on my skin for 6 hours. Don't let the low cost clone house price tag discourage you, it's actually worth your 8 dollars. Get it at Walmart

@@doblemcpollo8829 Thank you for the help: I plan to learn more about it.

yeah all I get is shaving cream with a dash of lavender in the current formulation, haven't tried the classic though.

Yes that’s another good one, breaking that out when it gets cooler !

Whenever I wear Cerruti 1881, my grandkids say that is the Cologne for me 😂 I do love it though

Thanks you so much for watching Vanessa !

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey we appreciate your efforts in making awesome review for us...Keep up the great job done..Hugs

Love them so much, some of the best scents 😊👍

1881, my dad's 90's fave, I recently got a bottle! Loving neofougeres too, Azzaro Pour Homme Intense really wowed me, bought it on the spot.

Drakkar noir is one of the best ! A video I have coming up some will feature it again in vintage form

That’s awesome! It is so good isn’t it ! Super high quality really low price you can’t beat it. It’s an amazing fougere

Must pick up Bougart Signature. I have One Man Show which is a guilty pleasure.

@@stevepinnock5668 you will love it.

You guys are spot on. I bought Bogart Signature. It’s a beauty. My bottle had a 2011 batch code. Not sure if it has real oakmoss in it. It’s the greenest scent in my collection for sure. Think I might try Alfred Sung Homme. Getting a real itch for more proper manly fragrances.

Wow I’d love to find a vintage bogart ! However thankfully the current one is still amazing I think. Thank you for watching and commenting as always Chris

So fresh and green and a great price! 1990 but it might as well be an 80’s scent, many of the early 90’s men’s classics had a scent style that was totally spill over from the 80’s decade

100 the early 90's stuff still had aspect of 80's era scent. i think with 1881 u get the best of both worlds but more 80's in it like u say.@@ScentsOfSouthJersey

The original 1881 is one of the best fougere’s ever

Okay i will keep an eye out for it, thank you for watching and commenting dude

Thank you so much for watching and commenting Blake ! 1881 is amazing definitely check it out

It is a nice scent I agree I have two bottles of it

Definitely check out bogart signature! It’s so good

Yeah i had to make a decision and I’m on team bogart lol

This list is full of winners if you love fougere’s like me, thank you for watching and commenting Michael

I know it is and you welcome keep up the good work and thank you very much

Hey thanks Winnie ! Yes 1881 is timeless and smells fantastic I wore it out the night I made this video last weekend despite the video not being uploaded until Tuesday lol

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey it's a gorgeous scent. Very underappreciated by today's bubblegum fragrance crowd.

I reviewed the edp not to long ago, I only have a sample of the edt, I enjoy both though !

Yes it is

Longevity?

I will have to check that one out ! Thank you for watching and commenting as always !

@@lordfolkland In 75-85 degree weather: 6hr until skin scent, 10hr on clothing still radiating in personal space.

I have not tried anything from Penhaligons except for Sartorial. Thank you for watching and commenting !

Montana Parfum D’homme is sooo good ! Thank you for watching as always Asaf!

You have to try Bogart signature ! It’s hands down the best from the house even better than one man show and Eau fresh. Nobile is unreal too that’s another must have if you can get a decent deal ! Thanks for watching Jonathan !

Oh you won’t be disappointed definitely get bogart signature !

I’ll tell you what if I remember the next time I go back to my parents house my dad has a bottle I’ll see if I can snag it but I’m not going to buy one since it’s a bit sweet for me lol thank you for watching as always dude !

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey alright understandable.It’s not for everyone that’s for sure 😆👍. And I understand how you don’t spend the money on it

Business man is such an awesome scent I really like it and it’s so classic 80’s style

You can never go wrong with Drakkar noir !

Thanks for all the support ! Glad you like the picks on this list ! I know you love the fougere’s like me

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey you know it’s, thanks for noticing!

@@snortchgortch4253 I've seen you post on fragrantica. I'm thinking of buying Milton Lloyd colour me silver sport just as an every day frag, not really looking to get an exact clone of AHS or anything, just want to smell good in a casual setting, have decent projection/performance. Would you say it's worth it? I've read some horrible reviews/experiences with it and that it was a waste of money

Hey thanks so much for the kind words John ! Glad you enjoyed

Fougere’s smell the absolute best ! Thank you for watching and commenting Sarhad!

Anteaus has more of wet rain smell as well thats absent in Cerutti, love em both

Totally agree. I think 1881 smells midway between Antaeus and CK Eternity (EDP)

You know it bro !!

Same with me they are the best ! Thank you for watching and commenting Raees!

Bogart is so good it’s crazy because of how cheap it is cost wise but the quality is amazing

Haha they are the most interesting presentations sometimes right ! Thank you for watching as always Dude

Yea definitely track down Caesars and business man they are both amazing, especially Caesars! The great thing about bogart is it’s so cheap you can spray as much as you want !

I have the current formula but not the vintage unfortunately, Drakkar noir is awesome I have two vintage bottles of drakkar. Thank you for watching and commenting scott

Duc is so good ! I am wearing the L’Extreme version today ! Polo green I would not classify as a Fougere but it’s absolutely an incredible scent none the less and I love it

Ralph Lauren Polo Green is my favorite fragrance of all time, but it's not a Fougere, despite it being green as all getout. It's a chypre, and features pine, leather and tobacco along with substantial Aromatic herbs, but no lavender. A classic Fougere has, they say, the tell-tale lavender-coumarin accord, with the coumarin (or, usually, substitute of coumarin by accord from other notes) contributing the earthy green "fern" accord. The "barbershop" variety of Fougere is less well defined but usually has the green-earthy accord toned down and a soapy/powdery accord amped up. Compare modern-day classic fougeres Houbigant Fougere Royale (2010) and Amouage Bracken Man with any of the "barbershop" fougeres like YSL Rive Gauche Pour Homme, Azzaro Pour Homme, etc.

@@JT-rx1eo You are right, I stand corrected. I didn't know Polo Green doesn't have lavender but it's still a fragrance I do want add to my collection. Thanks !

Mandate is close to impossible to get in the USA from what I’ve seen unfortunately

I've got a bit left in a 50ml bottle that I'd be happy to send you if I didn't think homeland security would come and smash my front door down with a swat team in tow! I don't know the laws about sending stuff in the post but it's a thought, if you ever get to London you would love it in gerymn St with floris, lalique, Alfred dunhill etc! I'd happily show you around.

Sergio Jazz was my gateway fragrance! Stepping up from my Dad's Brut! Prestige is amazing - slightly sweeter and fresher than original. Pasha, Jazz, Safari, Tsar... perfection!

Ahh I need to try Jazz it’s been recommended to me a few times lol

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey cannot honestly speak to either of the La Collection bottles (previous black band or now current clear), but can vouch for both original (black & white bottle) and clear glass bottle (akin to Live Jazz) . Lize Jazz - Pierre Bourdon - masterpiece as well. Herbaceous and zingy - wife's favorite right next to Kouros Fraicheur!

How is that one ? Any scent it’s close too ?

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey No idea about what's it's close too but it's worth buying and viewing. I think it's really good and decent and long lasting.

It really is an incredible scent I need a new bottle soon lol

I'd drink the stuff if I ran out of whisky!

Hey thanks for watching dude! I wish I could try Patou it’s just so pricey lol and no I have not tried bob mackie just yet, i have some many scents I have not gotten a new one in a little bit

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey Here’s hoping you get to snag a good deal at some point mate. I’d love to see your thoughts on it. Mr. Smelly & Scent Land have yet to mention it as well which adds even more to the mystery.

Thank you for watching as always dude !

That’s not a bad idea maybe sometime in the future ! Thank you for watching and commenting sir

Thank you for the recommendation dude !

Yeah I found that out a few weeks ago, ordered a bottle on Amazon for 29 bucks which is only slightly more than it used to be but unfortunately the top notes on it are definitely spoiled and it does not smell right until the dry down

I have not I looked into it the original one but never pulled the trigger, it’s a fresh citrus right ?

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey it is. Some say it’s similar to Eau Sauvage but I like Rochas even more and that’s saying a lot.

Love BDJ myself. Heavyyy lavender bomb.

Like it, smells a lot like Davidoff Zino imo

@@HBLW1975 Lmao he hates zino 🤯

Haha good man ! Collecting the best of the best fougere’s ! Thank you for watching and commenting

Yes that’s a good one I have it !

Hey thank you for the kind words and for watching!

It’s all about the green notes #oakmoss !

Great scent that on will get its own review soon

I do not own any Amouage fragrances so I really can’t say, but thank you for watching and commenting sir!

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey Hey. Is there a reason for not owning Amouage fragrances ? Just curious :) BTW Bracken Man is a fantastic fougere.

Haha thank you sir ! Appreciate the support

You can try Acqua Di parma colonia club (green bottle) a fresh but masculine classic style scent but more modern I think great mint green scent. Thank you for watching and commenting dude

Oh you have to get 1881 men if you love fresh but still strong green fougere’s !

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey is it the one in black bottle that says Cerutti 1881 signature?

@@vanessacheung7781 No "1881 signature" is a different flanker. Spicy, smoky, warm. It's a great smell as well. The original is just called "1881 Cerruti pour homme" in the light green packaging. Actually most of the 1881 are really nice. "Bella Notte, Riviera, Essentiel, Acqua Forte" are all very good fragrances. But don't buy "1881 black", I don't like that one!

Me too! But bogart really took it over for me, definitely try it out

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey Just looking for a seller here now.

Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching/commenting Andy ! And at this point I’d say no I doubly we will see a flanker to Drakkar noir however I wish they did make an intense or a sport Drakkar noir that would be awesome lol

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey That would be a great topic for a video; "It's Time For Guy Laroche to release Drakkar Noir EDP!" - Heck, it took Calvin Klein almost 30 years to release Eternity EDP a couple of years back, so hey, why not?

They have now released Drakkar intense 2022.

@@AndyDeWittMusic I plan on buying it as soon as it’s available, I just hope it’s not a sweet “new age” style dior sauvage family member cash grab scent, I hope it’s truly old school or an intense Drakkar noir

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey I hope that you'll do a review either way. I enjoy your channel.

Haha that’s great ! A perfect description and now everyone loves the idea of a “barbershop” style fragrance

Clive Christian No1, but.....it's damn expensive. Try out a clone house either an oil or perfume. IMHO that reminds of luxurious shaving foam.

The one that gives a fantastic shaving foam vibe is Tabac EDT. It’s SO good and inexpensive. Great performance on me as well. Even if it’s not exactly what you were looking for it’s well worth the price to add to your arsenal.

Rive Gauche ! That’s the answer lol

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey absolutely very much so , but really tough to get your hands on these days

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey yeah if I could get a deal on one I'll definitely pick up rive gauche its been on the radar. Thanks Kelan.

I have never tried that one before, I got Rockford by Atkinson’s not to long ago that’s a great one

just yesterday i bought a 100ml Rockford piece...never tried before ..i cant wait to wear it

@@mauriziomarongiu2470 it’s a great Vetiver scent !

Yes nobile it’s really something else I love it, that would be an expensive discontinued scent that I would buy a back up bottle of !

Hey I am dating again and all I wear are classics and they have got nothing but positive attention, they smell great and we just need to wear them confidently, if the girl likes you they will like the scent!

Thank you for watching and commenting Michael !

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey thank you !

I no longer dislike Azzaro pour Homme I just initially didn’t like it but it was the very next scent I talked about after rive gauche. Azzaro Pour Homme is awesome for sure. It paved the way for rive gauche lol thanks as always bro !

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey lol as I sent it you brought it up lol I pulled the trigger to quick. One I definitely need to get now is bogart signature especially after your comments regarding the PR pour homme. And for that price it’s a no brainer dude

Santos I have and enjoy that one but it’s the only Cartier fragrance I have. Thank you for watching and commenting sir!

The box looks so funny I love it’s presentation it’s so 80’w definitely looks like a to do list

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey totally, they are unapologetically doing their thing. It’s always very refreshing to see that with a tenacious classic!

Well I don’t own it anymore and I’m not buying it anytime soon haha

Oakmoss Incorporated 😂👍🏻

I just saw mr smellys video on that one I definitely want to try it !

Another interesting one would be your take on Perry Ellis 360 for men. Some think it's just like ADG, some say it's better and the best bargain out there, some hate it. One other thing would be having a women in their 20s smell drakkar noir, lomani pour homme, etc and give their opinion. I could see that being very humorous but also probably pissing off some of your viewers lol

That would be funny, I eventually want to review Aramis

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey that fragrance community thing with Mr smelly popped into my KZfaq feed and I watched it for the first time because I noticed you were in it and wearing a track suit looking like an associate on the Sopranos haha you were looking good tho! Anyways I was really surprised that one chick who I think is French said she really liked drakkar noir. I'm 31 and live in the Midwest, I can't imagine any woman in her 20s to 30s liking drakkar noir unless her dad or grandfather wore it or something. Maybe I'm wrong. I'd like to see your take on Versace pour homme some time or missoni wave, more recent fragrances that you could say are here to replace Aqua Di Gio but I know you're more about the old school colognes. It's interesting to me that many people say the old school manly colognes are unwearable nowadays. I enjoy VPH and it is considered masculine by today's standards but many old school guys would say it leans towards being unisex or atleast, metrosexual lol

I think it can be worn any time really I wear it all year, whenever I decide to wear it for a few days in a row it’s always random times of the year
