Regarding longevity on skin, I've found that moisturizing or putting on non-scented lotion really helps this. Obviously more women known this trick, but it's something to think about. It made the difference in La Nuit de L'Homme going from a 3-4 hour scent to a 8-10 hour scent on my skin (dry, not oily).

I've learned a freakish amount from your videos. Great stuff, man!

Im in the fragrance oil business and i find that Insurrection for men is one great long lasting scent...a good 12 to 24 hours easily...i love ur channel and use it as a point of reference in my fragrance reviews to get new scents in for my customers...so thank u

I love your videos...I started collecting and its because of you. Your review ratings and description on the way frags smell and last(at least to me) are very accurate keep up the good work.

Cody, Joop is the king for longevity. I sprayed this one a card at the drug store 2 WEEKS AGO and the scent is still there! Long live King Joop!

Sad that the current La nuit would have no chance on this list today

Le Malle is a beast I hate the smell but it lasts sprayed it on at an ulta took a shower still smelled it, got up took another shower still smelled like le Malle. Went to bed got up and still smelled it... A three day frag

Awesome list! Totally agree with your number 1. I look forward to the niche list. =)

could you please an updated 2015 video about this? :)

Angel Men is a beast!!! I get over a day of longevity on my skin.

I really love the way you explain these fragrances, mate. it is so easy for a fragrance noob like me to understand. I blind bought a couple of scents based on your review and didnt disappoint. thanks!

Hey, I recently found your channel and enjoy your videos quite alot! You know, you should look into making asmr content. Your voice and the way you talk to your audience really fit the genre. I don't get tingles from watching you or something, but it's really relaxing and comforting. Stay awesome!

I sampled Chanel Platinum Egoiste and it lasted at least 10 hours on my skin personally and it was pretty strong. I used 3 to 4 sprays on my neck and it started to give me a head ache. I bet most can get by with only 2 sprays of Platinum Egoiste, one spray on each side of the neck. Versace Pour Homme actually did quite well on my skin too with regards to longevity for a fresh fragrance. I've heard and read that Givenchy Play Intense also lasts a very long time so that's one I'd like to sample.

I definitely agree with your evaluation of Le Male by Jean-Paul Gaultier. Huge sillage bomb. I would add additionally, Fleur de Male, also by Jean Paul Gaultier, the original formulation of Antidote by Viktor & Rolf, Noir, by Tom Ford (another huge sillage bomb IMHO), and Sung, by Alfred Sung.

Also Cody, since your collection is amazing right now, you must have a few fragrances that you regret buying. I know I do. It would be interesting to see a top of that. Animale for Men was one of the ones you regretted buying if I recall well. Great video as always.

C K, Joop and Le Male are my top 3, but my personal fragrance I use is a mixture of equal parts Left Male and Joop. Get yourself a 3ml sample vial and mix the two in equal parts in the vial and not on your skin. Apply it on your skin preferably after you showered in the morning for the best results. You get that clean, fresh smell (Let Male) coupled with the sweet, musky spice fragrance (Joop) which turns it into a ultra-beast male scent. Try it for yourself and give me your opinion on how it smells and morphs over time.

i have been looking for perfumes which have descent longevity for a long time thanks to you man you simply brought all under one roof.great work once again thank you for this wonderful video

Fantastic video, mate! Thanks for posting.

oven and bed in the same room. NYC?

I remember Obsession having killer longevity.

La Nuit De lhomme literally lasts max 6 hours on my skin idk how it lasts so long on yours.. Dear lord..

Another impressive video, Cody. Happy Belated Birthday!

you are the only one here in youtube that talks about Issey miyake. neither Jeremy nor Steve mentioned it. It's such an awesome cologne , sooooo much better than any Chanel cologne. I love issey miyake and I got more complement with it than any other cologne.

RIP La nuit

Wonderful idea.... and you look very energetic in the vid man.. looks like we are in the weekend already... I absolutely agree with you on this list especially with Loccitaine Eau de Beaux that I own ... awaiting your next vid for the same topic on the niche side...

Owning that many fragrances do you see yourself throwing a lot away? How do you store your fragrances to make them last? Do you just store in a drawer or closet at room temp? What's the best storage method to get the longest life out of a fragrance?

Hi Cody! Will you make a new update review of your longest lasting Fragrances (Designer and niche)? Thanks in advance for your answer. Best regards.

How long have you been collecting fragrances? And how much overall have you spent on fragrances? Finally, Issey Miyake, Lacoste Essential, or Nautica Voyage?

I've mentioned this in another video, but Armani Code Ultimate is pretty long lasting to me. Not sure if it goes for 20 hours or anything, but it easily gets me through a day of work and then some. Although I can sometimes smell it when I wake up in the morning after putting it on around 4pm the previous day.

you either have a supernose or you're using the vintage versions, how come all the frags you've mentioned lasts 12+ hrs??? it's impossible with today's reformulations. according to how they're made now you would be lucky if you can get a frag that lasts 6+ max.

Bro awesome list &I want to personally thank you for all you do....From compiling various list to assemble a "total list" to you doing a reviewm....your content us just awesome....always learning to help improve feedback for mine & learning something new about scents every time you put your face on the camera.....*raises glass of oban 14*cheers &much respect bro

Most fragrances last on me about as long as an ice cream cone would last in Death Valley on a particularly hot day. One huge exception is Dior Leather Oud. Two sprays of that and they'll smell it on your ashes in the next century. Farenheit, when it was released all those years ago, was another. I'd put a bit on to go clubbing on a Friday night and I could still pick it up in the bedroom the following Monday.

I usually feel like fragrances don't last even close to that on my skin, I am happy if I can still smell it some hours later, but I don't know how others feel about it. Your own nose adapts very quickly to the smell, so you won't smell it any more.

Thanks so much for the awesome reviews, I hadn't really thought about fragrance since my axe days in early high school. I purchased a bottle of Issey Miyake L'eau D'issey and couldn't be happier with it. can't wait to add more scents to my collection

I like long lasting Fragrances and that's the reason why i only purchase fragrances from Jaque Bogarts and Ted Lapidus....

just started watching your videos and I love them. Awesome job

Wonderful review. Keep up the great work !!

Haha I never thought I'd say this, but I think I need to give Le Male another try... I'm looking forward to your top 10 longest lasting NICHE fragrances video :)

dracdoc if you haven't already, when you get some free time please do a video on frags with the shortest longevity. If only Dolce & Gabanna The One lasted as long as the fragrances listed in the video above then it would be one of the greatest frags ever created. It's such a shame that D&G The One has such short longevity and that's the main reason why I won't spend the money to buy it.

Thank you for your video,this is what am looking for the cologne...Long Lasting Love.

I have to give Le Male another try. I do love the after 6+hrs of it. Loving Eau Des Beax more and more.

JOOP! lasts longer than Le Male by double atleast.

so far the best explained video .

Hi ya, so I need some pointers. My skin eats cologne. I've tried like 40 bottles mostly edt., thru vanish. I got chanel allure sport today and sent it back. I tried Opus vi, red aou d, dior Fahrenheit, mugler,. They work but darker scents. Any cologne that are woodsy and fresh with beast performance?

Awesome video my man and Happy Belated to you as well sir

if i was to start using non scented lotion which i don't know will help me because i have oily skin not sure what to use on my skin to make my fragrance last longer? also when putting on non scented lotion ect help the fragrance project any better?

From now on I will check your videos first before buying perfumes. Great videos man !

great informational video. I will keep these into consideration when choosing my next fragrance =)

Awesome vid i must say i have made some purchases from watching your videos, i have "by Man" Dolce & Gabbana long discontinued now, it has to be the longest lasting frag i have worn and the most amazing smelling too!

Which one from this list is your favorite? (In terms of smell) and why? Thank you

Obsession was my dads go to cologne back then before he started rocking lacoste. I remember it smelled like leather and amber and yup it lasted long

I remember vividly when Joop! launched, right before Thanksgiving '89 and it was EVERYWHERE! Obsession for Men was still king of the long haul hitters ( that's saying something because this was the late '80s). I hated Joop! and never touched it till about 8 years ago. It finally won me over but that is only because I was determined to stick it out till the drydown which takes forever, at about the 4hr. mark, then it becomes this beautiful spicy, powdery,sweetish, elixir. Great list!!

would you recommend ysl l'homme originl or the new edp version which one lasts longer and which one is better? personally I still out of every fragrance I own or ever smelt l'homme is by far the best one ever. still get tons of compliments it smells sexy woman love it it lasts about 4-6hrs but everybody loves it that has ever smelt it on me its really the only fragrance I get compliments on.

I own Leau Dissey but i gotta say Versace Eros and Tom Ford Extreme are my real beast mode monsters

Hi Jeremy. I really love to watch your videos on fragrances. On this one, am glad about Amen by Tierry Muguler. That is my signature fragrance. Can you recommend which others would be in that same category with Amen. Regards, Bilon

what is the difference between eau de toilette and parfume

WHATS UP DOC, what’s it like to go watch these old vids

Very good review! Could you do a review for Givenchy's Gentlemen Only? Really want to know what you think about the fragrance. (:

I agree which frags do u regret buying

fahrenheit edt is missing that's one if you don't wash you jacket or scarf you will smell it for ever haha that's for number 1+

Hey cody, you should try the jacques bogart pour homme, I believe that fragrance lasted even longer than Joop on me and on my clothes, I also suggested to ManLovesCologne and he made a review about it. Also great review. I believe all about you said but I really want to mention on reformulations, La nuit's new formulation doesnt last over 6 hours, le male's new formulation gets about 8 hours and a'men's new formulation is like 10 hours. I hate that they are getting reformulating and getting weaker.

on my skin: #10 Eternity by Calvin Klein #9 La Nuit by YSL #8 Solo Platinum by Loewe #7 Vetiver by Guerlain #6 Fahrenheit by Dior #5 1 Million by Paco Rabanne #4 Homme by Joop! #3 Bleu de Chanel by CHANEL #2 A-Men by Thierry Mugler #1 Grey Vetiver by Tom Ford

Great list! I can add "Dsquared2 he wood Silver wind wood" lasts a really long time on my skin and even more on clothes.

Thank you. I really enjoy your reviews! BTW, have you smelled Bond no.9's :Scent of Peace for Him" yet? Brand new...

The Angle Men is a BEAST but I personaly don't like the smell. Other than that, great list Doc, keep em comming :-)

Where can I buy L'instant de Guerlain?

300-400 in your collection...wow...I only have about 40ish and I thought that was a lot!! Anyway...good list! I love LIDGE! :)

Mont Blanc Individuel....absolute beast.

Bentley Intense is a monster. One spray folks one spray.

What is your favorite fragrance for the fall/winter but I'm looking for great projection (3+ feet) and great longevity (at least 7 to 8 hours) also I am a teenager in high school if that helps

Awesome vid bro. Can't wait to see the niche list :)

Hi Drac Doc, I am really grateful for you video 'top 10 longest lasting designer fragrances'. Can you kindly suggest me strong fragrant (viz. everyone can smell without approaching me) and long-lasting perfume(s), please? By the way, I wore 'dior homme intense' but it was unfortunately neither strong fragrant nor long-lasting on my skin. Thanks Ahmed

Great idea for a video man... Awesome job as always...

Creed green Irish tweed and aventus out live all these smells, although they are made differently as their perfumes rather than edu toilette... amen,(had so many women say they dont like the smell when wearing it) joop reminds me of alcoholics and peeps trying to mask a bad smell...and John Paul are horrible which is a shame really as they do last for how much they cost.... keep up the good work bro just found your channel so have subscribed and will be watching future vids👍

Nicely done sir!

+dracdoc what is the best fragrance that you have ever smelt that lasts the longest in your opinion. Or top 3?

The longest lasting stuff in my collection are as follows' 1. A*men BEAST MODE!!!!!!! 2. 24 gold. over 24 hours of unexpected awesomeness 3. Dior homme intense. When it works it lasts forever. Sometimes it disappears early. I dont know why. 4. Spice bomb. It doesnt project at the 12 hour mark but it still is apparent at that point. I much prefer this to 1 million 5. Pure malt. Should be up with A*men but I feel its different enough to warrant its own place. Love this stuff.

Have the reformulated versions got the same longevity as the old? If not could you review the reformulated fragrances like le male and la nuit. Thanks im new subscriber.

Best choices. 👍👍👍

For me *Bijan* has the longest longevity, followed by Dior *Fahrenheit*, and *Oud Ispahan*. Surprisingly, the Yves SSaint Laurent (la nuit de l'homme) doesn't last very long on my skin. It might just be because of my skin or that I got a bad copy.

Hi, quick steer if you wouldn't mind :-) Been using Dior Homme Intense for the last couple of years, quite fancy a change even though its a great fragrance. In line with the EDP quality and in terms of how long it lasts on the skin, what would you opt for? Thanks in advance :-)

Great video. I have owned a few of these fragrances but ended up giving them away because they last too long after 5-8hrs my head start to spin and my nose is just on fire. Personally I found the one million too synth and I've tried subs because I love the smell. Su s like Antonio Banderas Golden Secret, Burberry-London and a new acquisition not well known in the USA Jesus Del Pozo Halloween men. What do you think?

Hey I hope you can answer this. I work as a chef. Frying, sauté, you name it. Any colognes you know of that you would think will outlast not just a sweaty day of work but also food smell picked up during a typical 9 to 10 hour work day. Sometimes as the chef I have to go out and speak to customers. WOULD LIKE To SMALL good for that

thanks for another great video. 300-400 fragrances?holy! and i thought buying one a month would be too much!

I agree with the list but i believe that Joop another fragrance out that I smelled once before and it's not as potent as the original. Issy is a great one that unfortunately alot of ppl wore it out early and most ladies can't stand it now. The body cologne lol .. can't remember the name but I only owned it once and it was stolen from me. I was so hurt that I never bought it again. I know it's a red bottle version of it, but it does not compare to the original. Thanks for the list and I'll be waiting for this yrs winter fragrance.

Hi, I tried your honourable mention, the Issey Miyakee L'eau Dissey, it is really good, though the opening is very sour, did not like much, but the mid notes and especially the dry down is awesome, absolutely awesome. But I want a stronger version of it because on my skin it is not projecting that much after 2-3 hours, it is lasting for around 8 hours but it lasts very faintly, close to skin. Can you suggest anything similar smelling but a bit stronger in projection? (and with similar longevity). By the way I tried Hugo by Hugo Boss (Man) and the dry down of that smelled similar to L'eau Dissey. My inexperienced nose could go wrong. Do you think they are similar? Thank you for this awesome video.

I know this is way late but I jump around on these videos. Just a note is you should have tagged on how many sprays you use for each. I know you could do a whole run through and make it a 40min video but maybe the spray count wouldn't hurt.

I'm surprised that i didn't not see Creed Aventus on this list !

hi doc, i want to buy some new fragrances for my collection. What size of the flacon do you prefer for a collection? Great vids...!

any tips on how to get extended longevity ? maybe apply unscented lotion first so skin wont soak it up so fast?

Ysl la nuit de l'homme lasts less than an hour on my skin, with at least 5 sprays. Brought from debenhams so not a fake.

I feel One million by Paco is a intense version of Versace Blue Jeans very similarities between the two same kind of sweetness

A*men is THE best lasting fragrace in designers !!!! good list cody !!!

This guy is cool and spot on

+dracdoc what is the best fragrabce that you have ever smelt that lasts the longest in your opinion. or top 3?

The times when Le Male was a beast mode fragrance are gone... I still get great longevity, though. La Nuit's performance is bad and the smell is not so rich. RIP.... Joop is still a beast...

I had the feeling that Angel Man had a constant fragrance over the hours; is it because its scent is strong with synthetic chemicals? instead, Habit Rouge de Guerlain (you didn't mention), or L'Instant extrème, constantly change....I would go for that kind of perfumes: the ones that evolve in time

Hi , can you recommend a long lasting summer fragrance please?

My longest lasting fragrance is Boucheron's Jaïpur EDP Although I haven't worn A*Men in a long long time, it's possible that A*Men would last longer on me but I don't it will

See, this guy fully explains the fact that different scents have different affects on each individual.. if you guys truly studied the nature of the human nose.. each individual has a very keen sense of smell.. to some people it lasts ( to them, meaning THEM smelling it ) differently.. if i were to spray my Joop... i may not smell it after awhile but it is still strong to everyone else... this is because the nose gets used to the smell after awhile and it often tricks your brain to not noticing it as much.. hence why most people over due the cologne.. ( DONT do that xD )...Also scents change, when in contact with your bodies natural oder... thats why you spray it on your skin, give awhile it may change.. the natural body oils mix into the cologne and ma change its scent.. not always in a bad way. Also... you can't really judge a cologne, only because YOU don't like it.. the smart thing to say would be " its just not my cup of tea"... most people give a cologne bad reviews, and urge others not to fall for it... well who knows they may like it;.. your opinion isn't the master answer to all things... Just saying! I have a wide collection of colognes!! TONS! I love ALL of them.. not one did i not like.. i have a sick obsession and most of all colognes i really enjoy..
