Hi Omar How about making a video about freshies for spring n summer? Too many choices like Lacoste L'Homme Intense, Rochas L'Homme, Prada L'Homme, Mont Blanc Legend, BVLgari etc.. Maybe, reduce the number of redundancies in freshies too.

@brandonhobbs8563 8 ай бұрын

Redundancy goes beyond similar notes and DNA, as you point out in this video. Some fragrances, like Naxos and Tobacco Vanille, simply have limited use, and owning both (or multiple special occasion fragrances) may be a waste of money for many (not all) people. I appreciate your insight and thoughts on this subject. You should produce more like this.

Fantastic topic! This is something I wonder about a lot when considering new full bottle purchases. Gotta totally agree on the Naxos take. As nice as it is to smell like Tobacco Vanille at a holiday gathering, Naxos does the job just as well. I also find it a little difficult to wear. It's not a casual scent, but if I'm properly dressed up I want to wear Alexandria II or Oud Satin Mood.

@richardmurray4605 8 ай бұрын

Interesting video. I love the original Stronger With You DNA, and was looking to upgrade from the EDT to Absolutely, but was also thinking of The Most Wanted. The thing is I'm no longer in the clubbing age range and do not want to waste money on fragrances I will hardly ever wear. I must confess I own both Spice Bomb Extreme and Man in Black. They are very similar, but I like the added booziness of MiB from the rum note (also found in SWY Absolutely). Definitely Autumn/Winter fragrances and won't get much use outside of these seasons

Yeah, I try to have a small collection (under 20 pieces) and at some point, I decided to have different aromas that I liked. So, with that in mind I ditched some fragrances because they were pretty similar (I dropped Office, 'cos I kept Hacivat, L'immensité over Sur La route, etc). Having said that, I don't think is too redundant to have Naxos and Tobacco Vanille, or maybe is just me. I have them, and I love them. Greetings from Mexico, Omar!

The one Luminous Night, and Initio Side Effect can fit in here as well. Similar scent profiles. I have both, and actually struggle on where and when to wear them.

I actually sold Side Effect a couple weeks ago for exactly this reason. They smell similar enough so there was no way both would actually get worn. Side Effect garnered more compliments, but I like The One Luminous Night a bit more and I could get more for Side Effect, so selling Side Effect was the choice.

The Dior Homme Intense take is true, however i dont think that the Givenchys are redundant. Especially reserve privée and the original eau the parfum are amazing and can stand next to homme intense But only if you search for something.... more/slightly different than "just" an evening Iris scent. If an evening iris scent is excatly what you want then yeah, go with Dior, but if possible i recommend trying the givenchys, i like em (except for boisè and society)

I didn't want to agree with you Elixir and OFG but I do. I find alot more occasions to wear Elixir. Not too many for OFG even though I love the fragrance. For a while I had Lalique White in Black and Detour Noir. When I bought my bottle of Layton, I gave my father the Detour Noir bottle. Even though Layton and redundant, I rather spray the Lalique often and wait to use Layton for when I go out.

@drentar4423 8 ай бұрын

I understand that you are not impressed by Stronger With You Absolutely because of how similar it is to the SWY line overall, but comparing it to The Most Wanted is not appropriate to me. They do have almost the same vibe, yes, however SWYA smells of higher quality ingredients and is more smooth as opposed to the sharp spicy, screechy, bubblegummy, overly sweet Ethyl Maltol blend that is Azzaro's TMW. I will say that I have both and had TMW for longer and before getting the SWY - I loved it. But since i've had and tested both for a longer timespan, I have to say that in this case it's actually worth to save up for the slightly higher price tag of the Armani's, knowing I don't even wear TMW anymore.

I also own Dior Homme intense as well as Givenchy's Gentleman EDP and Valentino's Homme intense for which i agree that they are very similar. I also find very similar PDMs Herrod , Spice Bomb and Joop's Homme wild (on the same genre)
