WOW you broke this down so eloquently & didn’t leave a SINGLE stone unturned regarding the comparison of Rogue and the Ruby edition. Funny enough, I tried getting the Ruby edition some months back (just because it was “newer”) and mistakenly purchased Rogue & I have zero regrets whatsoever especially after watching this video. Thank you Glam for always being honest. There’s a lot of other fragrance reviewers but no one does it like you ❤️.

I'm loving Prada sport with a spray of Cosmair Polo green. The compliments are strong with this combo. The way the polo brings out the juniper berries with that vanilla/tonka vibe smooths out the classic scent of original polo and is actually addictive. Watching your Perri ellis unpredictable extreme vid made me try the sport cuz I already loved Carbon. 😍

@@GlamFinds yeah it’s spot on in the air. If you smell your skin up close you can tell the difference. I just recently got Tomcat in from Alexandria fragrances, and it’s a great clone of YSL Babycat which is impossible to find, I bought a 15ml decant of it. Also Jean Lowe Immortal which is a great clone of Louis Vuitton L’Immensite, and Secret Lagoon by Oakcha, a beast mode 1:1 clone of weak ass new batches of Creed Virgin Island Water. All three of those combined were under $100, and I have decants of the real ones and they are either better or just as good. I would have never wasted money on BR540 if that Armaf clone dropped a few years ago before I bought BR540. Hey by the way MFK is raising their prices on August 1, so if you want on grab it soon. Thanks for responding you’re a great reviewer.

Bought it, tried it. Smells exactly like BR 540 Extrait. 4 sprays and no joke: it lasted on my skin for 36 hours. I tried washing it off my wrists and even showered and it only went away when it decided to. It became cloying, really loud and a bit too much for my senses. It made me sad to return but I had to. I just couldn’t wear it. Btw, it also smells like Mancera Instant Crush
