I believe the Hollister refered to in the video is Hollister Wave Crush (blue bottle and box). Side by side to Sauvage EDT, it is closer than most but Dior is obviously "more everything"

[@Figureight]

I own both Layton and Detour Noir. Layton has slightly more vanilla in the base and florals in the mid, but for that general Layton vibe, Detour Noir is insane value for money. I'll never buy another bottle of Layton that's for sure. If anything once my Layton bottle is emptied I'm going to want to fill it with juice from my Detour Noir bottle just because the Detour Noir bottle is just so awful. Edit 11 hours after posting: So I decided to have another Layton wearing after leaving this comment. I wore it all day and it was lovely. This evening I put Detour Noir on my other arm, and it isn't exactly the same. It's sharper, not as rich, but it basically takes that sweet sparkly opening that the original has and goes with it. You could almost consider it a spring-time version of Layton because of the fact it's less vanilla heavy and more focused on the fruity floral vibe. If you like that part of Layton then go for it, but it doesn't smell as expensive as the OG. I prefer Detour Noir when I haven't recently worn Layton as it makes me think of it, without me directly comparing it where I find myself gravitating towards the original a lot more. Also Detour Noir doesn't last anywhere near as long for me. Layton (I have a pre-reformulation bottle) just lasts way longer.

[@rohith7841]

🤣🤣lol.. bottle

[@joesmellsgood]

The bottle is... Insane

[@eduardkaseberg1378]

I see a market for empty Layton bottles!👀

[@dmmice2344]

It does look pretty awful 😂

[@TheAnimePiper]

The bottle is terrible. But with Detour Noir, I've read it has a bit more of that menthol/mint vibe that they toned down since the reformulation. Have you noticed anything? It really is a garbage presentation but I do enjoy Detour Noir quite a bit otherwise. Might have to get a decant at some point

[@LGCamps]

Untold is quickly becoming one of my all-time favorite scents, after just having it a few months.

I've been subscribed to your channel for a long while now. I just came across this video. This really helped me a lot. I really want to build up a collection. However I can't afford a lot of the originals so clones are a great solution. Thanks so very much for all your hard work and great insight.

[@andrewfield8562]

Always wanted tf tobacco vanille but couldn't justify the price looked for a great clone for a while got that now in tobacco touch really impressed with it

[@drumlou7189]

I blind bought Tobacco Touch and wasn’t a big fan. A couple of weeks later I was able to test Tobacco Vanille and was blown away by how similar they are. Again, not a big fan but a perfect dupe.

[@magnifiscents6707]

A seldom talked about clone is Shaghaf Oud. It's a clone of Oud Bouquet by Lancome. It's amazing. Even better than the original in terms of thickness and longevity.

[@Justin_Truax]

Ash I love your personality and how you just be yourself while giving reviews and share your knowledge. THANKS FOR BEING AWESOME! 🎉

[@amoghavarshanripatunga]

Controversial opinion: Khamrah smells better than Angel's Share!! That Killian drydown gives out a weird smell on my skin, I don't know what it is, but I hate it. Opening is alright, but Khamrah is better overall in my opinion

[@V1ralB1ack]

you're not the first to say that. Khamrah is fantastic

[@karon718]

Agree

[@nomadicsouls3290]

Khamrah is not a patch on Angel’s Share. It’s a decent scent but that’s about it.

[@WeJammin]

the other way around for me😂

[@FlaktheQuack]

Extra controversial opinion: Khamrah is NOT a clone of Angels Share - it’s mildly inspired by it 😮 My personal favorite alternative is Kismet Angel by Maison Alhambra; but that’s the beauty of fragrance - everyone’s nose and tastes are different 😁

[@michaelmoses4019]

I'm very surprised the classic Club De Nuit Intense Man EDP didn't make the list or the Sillage actually those are amazing

[@dudleyhamby2029]

I LOVE LATAFFA!!! Oud For Glory is my favorite. I LOVE Initios Oud For Greatness but just can't afford it. Oud For Glory is so close that I don't have to break the bank to have that beautiful dark spicy aroma. I get so many compliments on this fragrance. You just can't go wrong with LATAFFA OUD FOR GLORY if you like Oud For Greatness but just can't afford it. You will be very very pleased.

[@Plump_Nick]

I almost spit out my drink at “thicker” 😂😂😂😂

[@painandpyro]

La Yuqawam is the only clone fragrance I particularly care for. And yeah, I remember when $70 was a steal, as I usually saw it for around $90 on fragrancenet. I hates the smell at first, but every time I smelled it afterwards, I loved it more and more - plus the packaging is gorgeous (even bought the Jasmine Wisp flanker for my wife and now we have a cute little matching set haha)

[@HorologicRannygazoo]

Be careful on the Amber Oud. Amber Oud Rouge is BR540, Amber Oud Ruby Edition is BR540 Extrait (with the almond note) Amber Oud Bleu is BDC, Amber Oud Bleu Exclusif is Layton-ish Kismet Angel is a closer clone, but Khamrah is a better fragrance -- like a "better than" Angels' Share. Armaf Craze is better than Pegasus to me, the almond note sticks better on my skin, almost like Initio High Frequency. Star Man Nebula and Hercules are also both fantastic.

[@TheKbreezy34]

That's completely wrong. Amber Oud Rouge is the Extrait and has a prominent almond note in it.

[@hashemshoaib5872]

Thanks Ash, you always make KZbin fun to watch😊

[@zachbonebrake352]

I've never smelled Angel's Share, but Khamrah smells absolutely fantastic. Asad is up there too.

[@James7995]

If you do ever get a chance to test Angel’s Share I highly recommend it. It’s quite different than Khamrah and was maybe the only thing I tried last year that surprised me.

[@PokeBreakersTCG]

I was waiting on todays video

[@Maser50007]

La Yuqawam Pour Femme is stunning! It’s a clone for Black Orchid by Tom Ford. 👀

[@rossmarshall4947]

I’d love to see some more Fragrance world clones being reviewed. Their catalogue is huge and they also clone some less popular fragrances such an the Amouage lines.

[@theonlynikolai]

Ash, are you aware that Amber Oud Bleu Exclusif is *not* an Al Haramain fragrance? Aromatix and Co discovered this the other day.

[@M3M3D14]

Aromatix is the best reviewer out there

[@Warhawk_Z06]

im late. but the dior sauvage by hollister is actually Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce cologne. i was mad when i realized i had two of the same colognes in different bottles 😒🙄😂

[@humilitysavestheworld118]

Just wore Pure Havane the other night it was a cooler evening and had an itch I hadn’t scratched in quite some time :) hopefully some of these are still in stock :)

[@TheAnimePiper]

Milestone is def amazing, absolutely love the melon note but I wonder how that will fare over time, one of the few I've gotten several compliments on. Asad is pretty great, feel it's a bit more wearable than the original but definitely less longevity, though I can't complain for the price. Oud for Glory I'm interested how it will develop after more maceration, only a few months atm since I bought it and doesn't feel like it's melded as much but then again CDN Sillage took a while as did CDNIM edt. Detour Noir also great despite the janky bottle lol

[@gavinlynas2833]

Asad smells a lot like an old school spicy man's scent with a modern gourmand caramel twist. There is a prominent nutmeg note that I'm not a fan of and it doesn't fade, but I decided to give it a few tries and see if my opinion changes. Then someone at work said I smelt like a curry shop and everyone bust out laughing so they must have been thinking something similar. That was the final nail in the coffin.

[@emiliosman820]

I wish these Arabic companies would make clones of their Arabic fragrances like from Arabian Oud namely Amiri, Sultani and Kashmir :)

[@user-sp8uo4or2g]

My favorates are lataffa vintage radio, swiss arabian shaghaf oud azraq, jean lowe immortal, lataffa asad ( yes other clones are closer) because that added vanilla note just works off my skin, maison alhambra tabac, and victorioso legend.

[@richardbosh4522]

Hello. What a great and informative video. It would ve great, for future reference, to have the prices (or price ranges) when you show the perfumes. Keep it up! :)

Lattafa Suqraat Eau De Parfum instead of profumo since its hard to find.

[@thembp4sho]

I recently got Lataffa After Effect which is a clone of Initio side effect and I'm blown away 🤯

[@KarmaNDuality]

Yes, it's a banger for sure. Probably my favorite at the moment. It says its Fragrance World though. But if it's Lataffa offshoot, I wouldn't be surprised.

[@conceitedminaj]

Yes its amazing I'm thinking of getting a backup bottle I'm just waiting for a great price

[@rafaeldcstr]

how about maison alhambra toscano leather? In the video you posted it seemed like it was like 1:1 in regards to Tuscan Leather

[@mubashirsyed2985]

I think it's a better quality that's why

[@cre810sion]

Untold, Khamrah, Kismet are all bangers! Asad is also amazing for the money. 9PM is a pleasant alternative.

[@khnemura9]

Just my opinion: KHAMRA is better than Angel Share.

Recently got porto neroli and it's honestly a 1:1 at 10% of the price..I need to grab a few more backups before the prices spike

UK comment: Lidl sell a Bleu de Chanel clone, it's called Bellini Deep and lasts 8+ hours on my skin. Smells like a mix of EDP and EDT. £5.50 for 75ml. The originals don't last longer than 4 hours on my skin

[@smokehouse4444]

Khamrah is very different compared to Angel's Share. To me it isn't even that close. In all fairness, I don't think it is supposed to be an exact clone, it is its own thing. I like AS much better though. Milestone is phenomenal!

[@rustyharden2716]

I am using Lattafa Asad and Lattafa Oud for Glory. Not even close to Dior Elixer and Initio oud for greatness respectively. Oud of glory is for oud lovers and long lasting.

[@SHROOMTECH]

After a while almost all of the Lattafa clones have a similar odor. I was on board at first but man these scents all have this same underlying synthetic stank to them. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that they don’t smell similar to what they’re trying to emulate. But this BO funk always creeps in to my nose.

[@noellemoon6398]

I just bought like 4 or 5 and I’m done lol I can’t do the clones it makes my stomach hurt it’s just way to syrupy sweet and strong

[@musicshend]

I absolutely feel you. I have bought 3 lattafa and all of them have this base scent that i do really hate. The ones i have tried are dur al maknoon , velvet oud and raghba wood intense. Velvet oud and dur al maknoon were the worst . I tossed them out. Raghba was way better but still a meh! I want to try khamrah and if it goes the same way I’m done with the brand. Something to mention is that maison alhambra line is from the house and they smell awesome! No disgusting base scent. The problem with them is they don’t last long but for the price they are awesome.

[@noellemoon6398]

@@musicshend I will have to agree with you I just got Porto Neroli from maison Alhambra and it does small better to my nose

[@kag3220]

Very unpopular opinion. But I think Detour Noir and PDM Layton aren’t exactly blind buy safe. I don’t know maybe it’s an expectations thing because of all the hype they’ve been getting online, but one would expect these to smell a lot better than they actually do imo. Not to say that it smells bad. But I would say that’s the worst smelling out of all the others I have in my collection right now

[@Scumcore]

You’re absolutely right imo. I don’t like them both. I expected to smell the most excellent and awesome fragrance after a couple of sprays when I finally got my hands on both. Turns out I really don’t like Layton that much and the recent batch of Detour I got is horrible. Turns out you just have to try before you buy.
