I am not one to hate on clones like I used to be. Oud For Glory was the one to fully convince me how good clones are now. Especially Maison Alhambra. They are literally bringing you the exact same scent, not inspired by, but duplicate scents. Tobacco Touch just brought Tobacco Vanille to my collection, and they did such an amazing job.
@jonahmendel4604 Жыл бұрын
I’m not sure I agree with this. I loved Oud for glory, and thought it was enough. But I got a sample of Oud for greatness and I was surprised at how different it was. Not to go into many details, the main difference that I picked is that Oud For Greatness dries really nicely. It leaves this very masculine, woody, perhaps smoky subtle smell on my skin that I loved. Oud for Glory kinda dies and goes away.

Hey Dallas, a great way I like to remember the Al Haramain fragrances is that there are two separate lines within them. You have the normal Amber Oud line then you have the Amber Oud Exclusif line. So the normal Amber Oud line has a Bleu Edition which, like you said, is a Bleu De Channel clone. Then in the Exclusif line, the Bleu (edition) is a Layton clone. Hope this helps anyone that was confused or had a question. Awesome video man like usual!

We have to start treating clones as stand alone fragrances. These frags are excellent stand alone scents. Sadly, they receive a negative connotation when they’re labeled clones. But I have LaYucaquan, Blue Edition, Tobacco Edition, Rouge Edition, Sillage, CDNIM, Milestone and others. These are all excellent fragrances. Sillage is one of my more complimented scents.

These videos are great, and there's been a lot of obscure fragrances that have I've been debating, then seen featured in your videos, however I never walk away with any more information than I already had. I'd love to see a line up like this, but with comparing the top 2 clones of it. Like tuscano leather, La Yukawam is brought up in the video, even the words, "comparison aside", but there was no comparison. I just hate that I can watch a bunch of videos about something and still have questions. Not that each peice needs to be fully reviewed, but a quick run-down on it so there's SOME info on it. I feel like I just hear "yeah...it's a clone" a lot, haha. Just some feed back. Thank you for the videos😊

Edit: what i'm trying to say is that i think there are clones that are smelling niche and high quality while have long longevity.
