I love that you shared plenty of niche with great performance, if I’m paying niche money I need good performance!

[@jimlittle5769]

I have exactly one of these 🙂 My top niches for life: Naxos, Jubilation 40, Absolu Aventus, Nio, Vertus Vanilla Oud, Elysium Parfum Pour Homme, and Oajan. Only have seven that are for life....though I am 54 and have 50+ full bottles, so chances are EVERY frag in my collection is for life 🙂

[@dedrickhicksjr]

Thanks for sharing Jim! Thanks for watching!

[@ivantrudeau8974]

Naxos & Oajan 👍

[@lclark3279]

Wearing absolu Aventus to bed currently, can’t stop smelling myself

Thank you so much! Welcome To The Smell Good Family!

[@pauledmonds4141]

always respect the shout-out for positivity and kindness feels like it’s in short supply around the world. A really nice blend of niche selections, some great choices for the first steps into the world of niche.

Layered lost cherry on top of fan ya flames ::chef's kiss ::

[@abelcano3723]

Vanilla Oud has this strange wet cement note, but on my second wearing I couldn’t stop smelling it and the dry down is stellar lol. Gris Charnel Extrait and Amouage Enclave are two fragrances that I blind bought and like just fine, but women absolutely go nuts over. The sillage is excellent in a light spring wind, particularly nights out. Must be the cardamom. Nice list! I enjoy your very real take on fragrances.

[@dedrickhicksjr]

I appreciate that! Thanks for sharing Abel! Thanks for watching!

[@RonaldjBrown-ik4oh]

My Son took me to Neimans in Tampa. I smelled the Mind Games French Defense, that Cherry is nice!! It will be added to my collection along with TRIUMPH OF BACCHUS! Thanks for sharing D!

[@dedrickhicksjr]

Dope!! Those are 2 bangers!!

[@rushabhk8]

Pegasus exclusif is lovely. This and haltane are my fav from the house

[@Vasqueza805]

I love that Pegasus Exclusif shoutout. Too many people underrate and thereby ignore this one.

[@shon729]

I have about 5 Nishanes. You're going to make me get another one 😅😂 but I think it rounds out the collection

[@garthwright6308]

That Interlude Black Iris is the only one that's seems intriguing to me. Definitely want to try it!

[@Acryte]

Bangers for sure. Vanilla oud and Signature Rose. Reflection 45 is definitely in my top 10 for life too.

[@GloFragrances]

Only got one niche atm (cedrat boise) and will continue to repurchase no matter what. In love with that dna

[@dqyler]

I love this list! BDK Gris Charnel Extrait is top 3 for me! Such an amazing scent! So good

Definitely love the list! I totally get down with PDM Pegasus exclusive and bdk gris charnel Extrait. Really, all of them. Have you tried any from Aaron Terrence Hughes yet? His work falls in line with a lot of those fragrances.

I have tried ATH.. tons of his fragrances, excellent house!

How is it going. Mother great vid. How does the bdk do in warmer weather like Miami. The extrait version. My birthday coming up and looking for a new wow fragrance

[@dedrickhicksjr]

Summer nights I think it could work beautifully.. I’d stay away from high heat situations tho..

[@christopherkenyon7112]

Dedrick have you tried Amouage Fate? If not you should. I find it to one of my favorite from the house.

[@dedrickhicksjr]

I have not.. I’ll add it to the list..

[@manuelmikewa]

Is French defense redundant to other cherry fragrances like a Guerlain l'homme ideal Edp, or are they completely different?

[@dedrickhicksjr]

Not redundant.. 2 different cherry fragrances

[@KylerBorn]

👍 MOST EXCELLENT LIST 👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@dedrickhicksjr]

Thanks Kyler!

[@bilalpati1639]

which ones the best?

[@dedrickhicksjr]

To hard to choose.. there all great!

[@pauljudah1235]

Funny cuz I feel same way bout fan your flames. One of the best dry downs but I'm still trying to get used to it

[@BlessedDelight1]

At this point is it worth getting aventus? Or getting a clone? I have a sample from decantx and no lie, it stays on my skin for 1.5 hrs. Projection is really bad.

[@dedrickhicksjr]

So I understand the question.. And my real thoughts are to go with what stifles you.. there are many GREAT clones out there that will make you drop the idea of owning a bottle of aventus.. but there’s always something special about the original creation.

[@BlessedDelight1]

@@dedrickhicksjr does yours last long?

[@BlessedDelight1]

@@dedrickhicksjr that’s a great point. Honestly I love aventus I love it. I tried clones like Rayhaan Imperia and CDN LE and they just don’t come close.
