Blu Atlas Atlantis Fragrance FIRST IMPRESSIONS - Hype To The MAXIMUM

[@lmj55freedom17]

One of my favorite Gents Scents reviews to date, not because of the product, Ash, you handled this disaster so well. Congratulations. Loved it....

[@robcooper8999]

Thanks for the honest and non-sponsored review

[@scoobydrew2311]

Probably one of the best gent scents videos I’ve ever watched. Awesome

[@jtfragrance]

Truly quality at its finest😂 Jokes aside, i truly appreciate how transparent Ashton is, hard to come by these days with paid influencers

[@phoenixfire83]

This is why I follow you Ash. All they had to do was pay off a couple of fragrance KZbinrs, and now they got frag heads eating out of the palm of their hands. So glad I didn’t buy into the hype.

[@Monoblock]

Unintentionally hilarious video. You powered through and gave your opinion which is always on point. You stuck the landing at the end with the magnetic cap making the bottle fall over. TGIF and for your vids Ash.

[@Joshuadanielcohen]

I literally chortled at the the bottle spin at 7:07. Really enjoyable review, Ash!

[@dalejacob]

I bought their skincare stuff. They are very legit. Cleared up my face very well. Kinda expensive when you're used to shopping at Walmart, but their pricing is fair when it comes to the top shelf stuff.

[@umarbaxtreet]

in Indonesia, sometimes I get that condition too. no box damage but the bottle is broken

[@firemanep]

Thanks for your honesty brother. Don't change.

[@aviationenthusiast238]

I fell for the hype a few months ago but tbh I think it lived up to it. Its my go-to office scent. Unique, fresh, not too loud but noticable.

[@nixgan6444]

One thing I noticed about fragrance reviewers who are paid to hype a fragrance is that most of the time, although they sing praises about the fragrance, it never really pops up again later in any of their favorite or top 10 lists. It’s a one time appearance and that is just sketchy.

[@dynamitenetworkinggroup8435]

Great video. Thanks for the candor and Letting us into your thought process and your SOP - standard operating procedure - which was super helpful

[@richderese7341]

I BEEN WAITING on a video for this! On every web site they say this is the ultimate summer fragrance. Let's get to it!

[@MrAlexLowen]

Thanks goodness this channel exists! It's the gold standard for the entire community.

[@shellroc21]

Ash, you're the best reviewer in the game. This video is evidence of that. You handled it very well and still broke (literally) it down for us. I also thought it was all just hype.

[@jingledubz3989]

Thank you for the utmost honesty as usual, Ash. This right here is the reason I have been a sub of yours for like 8 years. 🤘

[@ColbyNye]

Thanks for the honest review. You're one of the very few who don't sell themselves out. Greatly appreciate your honesty!

[@tom_schroeder]

Now that’s the honest review of Blu Atlas Atlantis I have been looking for. To celebrate you being such a stand-up guy, I’m wearing 8 sprays of Blue Ridge on this fine spring morning, from its bottle fearlessly picked up by the cap and having the perfect pressurized atomizer. Everything seems right in the world right now.😊

[@van-khalidmcgee9881]

Lmbooo

[@r0b0gam3r9]

Thanks for the honest review

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great first impressions video and I enjoyed it and can't wait to see the full reviews when you test it out and have a blessed day

[@logangrimes]

I got a sample of this stuff last year and ended up buying a bottle. The first time I wore it to the gym, then into the sauna, where the scent really took a turn in a great way. I think it really complimented my natural BO

[@chipmcgee4393]

Truth. So refreshing. Great as always. Thanks for the content. Be safe.

[@bh7984]

You handled the awful experience well, Ash. Imaging the folks at Blu Atlas right now saying: oh oh…. “Rapid unscheduled disassembly”

[@fishfan2]

😂 lol nice reference

[@Rockthespaceship]

Excellently handled! Wow! Respect

[@makingmajorprofits1017]

Thanks for the honest review, I will pick it up next year.

[@PabloHunE]

So I am typical Chanel de bleu type of person who likes to stick with that type of scent. I own Chanel bleu, Armani aqua de gio, and I'll usually always have a bottle of tom Ford's ombre leather. I tried savauge by dior and felt that something was just missing and made it almost synthetic smelling to me...then I ordered blue atlas and now I own a bottle. It's my go-to. It's what I wish sauvage had smelled like. I would say if you mixed Dior sauvage with chanel bleu and added a hint of melon scent, that's what Atlas Atlantis smells like and it's amazing. Not synthetic smelling at all. If you like the above aforementioned parfums and edps, aside from sauvage Dior because that was disappointing and synthetic smelling, you're going to want to try this one out. It's just fantastic and it's not too loud. It actually lasts around six to eight hours too. Definitely worth the price and I never say that, however, considering what other designer colognes and parfums go for, it is. Give it a whirl.

[@pinstripezero]

Was pretty skeptical at the beginning but the more I wear it the more I love it. Sounds bad but I prefer this to sauvage edp and Prada carbon. Love the peach and just enough musk.

[@skreefgeore6983]

back when the bottle was different (clear instead of black) i always thought it was fishy how it was at the top of every men's fragrance list online yet, at the time, I could not find a single review for it on youtube. fast forward to today and I'm looking for mens face masks, lo and behold, blu atlas is at the top of every list. came to YT to check out the fragrance again and I'm glad that you made this video because it means my suspicions were warranted,

[@surfrookie1]

Oh boy.... Sosososososo excited! Thanks Ash and love all the content 👍🇺🇸🔥

[@Joseph27032]

amazing review thanks

[@jonathanjaghammer2.0willia88]

I've been waiting for this

[@loreveharris5576]

Loved this!

[@xERRRAHx]

I appreciate your review of this. I am a big fan of Blu Atlas hygiene products as all natural body wash / deodorant / shampoo condition ... and HUGE FAN of their skincare products, sure a somewhat pricey brand.. but very high quality natural ingredients... having said that I was curious where some these fragrance experts for lack of better term, stood on the alantis cologne, as someone who likes higher end designer and niche fragrances, I understand this is more of an entry level simple safe bet, thought maybe use it as a safe gym fragrance.. I may pass on it, and got to higher quality colognes.

[@jredlamar]

Thank you for this! I saw this fragrance EVERYWHERE! Everyone was saying how amazing this was. Every youtube review had 0 complaints in the comments (which is unheard of). To make things even more fishy, this "amazing" scent wasn't on Fragrantica at the time. I appreciate the honest review

[@nickkovalenko2891]

That is the part that is always fishy to me is when Fragantica doesn't have it.

[@GentsScents]

I think brands usually submit their own fragrances to Fragrantica. The reason it isn’t there is likely because Blu Atlas never submitted it and no editors at Fragrantica have bothered to add it.

[@jredlamar]

​@@GentsScents You'd think they would submit this to Fragrantica especially if they have big youtubers calling it "The best Freshie of 2023" or the "Most Versatile Cologne of 2023" and giving it a 10/10. Such extreme claims.

[@Taparoo2]

I agree. Got a sample of it and meh. It’s got Kenneth Cole black vibes at the top except fruitier.

[@joescott9183]

Thanks for the honest opinion. I almost bought it because everyone said it was the best new thing but then I seen rumors that they were paying for reviews and have been hesitant since.

[@aidenlars]

I think this is the perfect blue fragrance. Underrated on its own line. My wife loves this one. Keep on producing this great content Ash! Hope to see you in Singapore someday!

[@renegadebrad7448]

I was already suspicious of this fragrance it popped up so many times as number 1 and I'd never heard of it other than those lists on google

[@a.vaidya8024]

This is absolutely chaotic, one of my favorite Gents Scents videos thus far 😂

[@robstein5799]

So glad you did this review. I agree with your assessment. This was a blind buy for me based on some online articles. Nothing inherently wrong with it (though a bit too sweet for me). I will give my bottle to my college aged nephew.

[@scentlessscents699]

Wow! One in a million chance this happened to one of the most influential likeable awsome reviewers in the industry... Ba! I bought it too! Nothing special smells ok. Wins the most basic fragrance of the year.

[@jorgaridya7085]

I got mine, my bottle had a spilled. I got a replacement with no hassle. The second bottle also have a little spilled. Not a big issue. I do love the fragrance but my complaint is the duration. Is not a long lasting fragrance.

[@PabloHunE]

That's strange. One of mine lasted like two hours...that was a tester. I bought the bottle of Atlas and now it lasts a full eight hour work shift. I think it's a combination of things including the person. Alot of people will make the easy mistake of ordering a tester that is an edp or t, instead of the actual parfum, which is what happened to me with Armani aqua. I love the atlas smell. It's not synthetic smelling and it's what sauvage Dior aspired to be. Sauvage smells synthetic. I said mid sauvage with chanel bleu and a hint of melon, and you have blue atlas.

[@jorgaridya7085]

@@PabloHunE I gotcha. I also love the smell. I just feel it doesn't last as long on me. Like you said, it could be a number of factors. I have the same performance with Dolce Gabana the One. Since you mentioned Dior Savage I own both Eau de Perfum and the Perfum. When I use it, it last on me forever. Even after taking a shower, I can smell the sent if I sniff it closely. Going back to Atlas, I can't complain about their customers service. I received the replacement one and it had a minor spilled. Not a big issue for me. I emailed back the rep thanking him for the replacement and did mention I had a minor spilled so they can look into it. Maybe a bad bash of bottles. I don't know. I just made the suggestion. A couple of hours later I got a full refund. So, that right there made me trust the company and will buy more products from them.

[@yvr2yyz]

Nice recovery Ash!

[@stevetaylor8258]

Great review. Love the honesty! I was looking into this product, but all the hype put me off. Glad to see It wasn't just me.

[@bcause8918]

Same here. When it started showing up on every list as the number 1 fragrance, I knew something was wrong. None of the lists could agree on the other 9 scents, but they ALL agreed Atlas was number 1?? No way…

[@sunmore4370]

Thanks Ash! I was about to buy Blu Atlantis, but no more 😊

[@martyp4465]

Thought it was alright, smells like something you would get from bath & body works (clean soapy and fruity, in my opinion, the longevity is crazy on it though with 70+ degree weather, and the dry down is better than first sprays.

[@nickb20]

Ash you’re a champ 😂 this may be the best video on your channel this year for entertainment value - shows your true character and we appreciate it!

[@TheChipster61]

Great review, shows his honest about an over hyped product.

[@JoeAverage1469]

Hyped up to the max! It's all over the place. Has to be paid advertising!!

[@dicemaniii]

I have it. Its different for sure bc of the black current peach apricot but i like it

[@Turley30]

Some reviewers definitely sold this fragrance on some lies.😂 I'm very glad you were honest.

[@brianspivey9254]

They seem to have a problem with their packaging because my bottle was broken when I received it. Customer service was great, and they sent a new bottle right out As far as the fragrance itself, I am not a big fan, like you say, it is OK, but nothing I would probably recommend to another person. At the 100.00 price point, you can do much better. Love your content!!

[@gerardwade514]

Bro you almost cut ur hand working with that broken glass lol. U don't gotta bleed for ur channel! Always love to hear ur perspective on new fragrances. I have this one and my wife and kids love it.

[@HeavenlyDemon592]

Wow, premium product! Im sure they'll offer u to replace your bottle...other reviewers will brand u a "hater" for doubting them on a cologne that was sent to them for free, n was paid to review the product.... thanks for reviewing

[@toddbishop9729]

I watch this as I sit and wait for my bottle to arrive from BA.I now wait to see if my bottle will be born with a defect! This is your best review ever.None of us could have been so pro bro!!

[@Goldfever06]

Great review. I too have seen thus everywhere but you may be the first video that I've seen where the fragrance was actually purchased. I was always skeptical because I haven't seen it on fragrantica, Basenotes, or Parfumo.

[@Canpo_]

Ash, they put the bottle in the box already damaged or at least cracked, and then it kept bumping around and breaking more. Literally shipped it broken.

[@jacobbridges9075]

This is the best video to date

[@brentlipaz]

Very interesting review... we seem to have opposite tastes. You've really hyped up some fragrances that I thought wasn't all that great and now you're slightly negative/neutral on a fragrance that I actually love.

[@tcompound327]

😂 how much they pay you to say this! Stop the 🧢 this is literally fabreeze in a nice bottle. There is hand soap that last longer than this stuff

[@glyde69]

My curiosity got the best of me. Ordered it last week. My thoughts. It smells like one of any number of 19 dollar cheapies I took a shot on over the last 10 years. Pleasant. Nothing wrong with it. Doesn’t smell like anything particular, but still smells like something I smelled 30x before.

[@victorking71]

Did you contact their customer service? They're very helpful... I've never used their cologne but one time my moisturizer jar came and the lid felt a little loose so I emailed them and they sent another bottle immediately.

[@domvan118]

Wish I saw this before I bought it. Yes, it smells nice. It's easy to wear, but nothing special for me. I won't wear this very much. But I hear that others love it.

You may hate this video but I love it, there's a bit of joy that comes from seeing not all the unboxings are flawless... that being said, yeah not my favorite pickup or worth the hype for me. Nice cap and not a bad scent but honestly musk heavy - shower gel on my skin

[@brucereynolds1161]

Another honest reviewer. Blu Atlas is just meh to me. Luckily I didn't fall for the hype and got a decant or else I'd be out $100 for a bland fragrance. Definitely a $30 frag or less. Wait for the hype to die down and get it for cheap.

[@Terry11111]

Haha great intro. Ash the hype beast 😅 .. and then the rest of the review hahha One for the ages!

Mine leaked too. So I got them to send me another bottle, and it leaked too. It smells decent enough. And they were super cool about sending me another bottle for free. But I won’t be a return customer.

[@GreybeardSD]

Sure would have liked to see what happened to that bottle. Only you and the camera know I guess. Nothing flimsy about that bottle at all. The presentation is top notch and the juice is solid. Far better that any 100 dollar fragrance at retail that I know of on the freshie side. Last about 7.5-8hrs on my skin (7-8 sprays). When I use it with its body wash it turns into a low key monster imo. Worth the hype to me. I'm not an expert but I own from clones into the niche arena. A hugh number of people really dig this fragrance.
