... could *never* give up my Fahrenheit, it was one of my first loves.and still is

[@thejeanblanc]

I ended up getting Loewe’s Cobalt 7 after watching an earlier School of Scent video, and I can tell you that I still prefer my Bleu de Chanel parfum over it; better sillage, smells more elegant, and stays on longer. (In my opinion of course)

[@TheOba89]

What’s the performance and longevity of Cobalt 7?

[@thejeanblanc]

@@TheOba89 I got around 4 hours before it became a skin scent 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@NoseofaVizsla]

BDC Parfum is the definition of skin scent :( it smells great, but for the price, it’s just not worth it, I still prefer the EDT and EDP, even though it’s certainly a lot better, than the former.

[@ohfour-seven6228]

Thanks for the comparison between Fahrenheit EDT and Parfum. I don't recall anyone else being able to explain the differences, you always do a great job with your descriptions!

[@moamenelboray3042]

Hey Omar, can you make a video on aftershaves and/or colognes? Thanks

[@luvyourzzz]

I like that you are different in your own way , I like that you have your own ideas and bring the same taste but in a different fragrance .

[@misterkhaya]

I agree with your thoughts on Y edp. I enjoy the scent on others, but when I wear my sample on myself it's just too powerful and harsh :/.

[@snubbii9276]

Ameer al oud intense is a standout performer, nice potency and compliments galore. Never smelt by ghe fireplace and cant comment on closeness but i would find it a bit perplexing as Ameer al oud intense is very much typical in the style of middle Eastern oudy scents that we luv and that which have many variants, just seems weird that maison margiela would copy the middle Eastern style. Moustache edp is nice, my partner likes it but i tend to use it as a daily driver rather than a date scent like the One edp.

[@umers_vlogs10]

Hi Omar, you still based in Swansea?

[@Areval.0]

Could you please review the Chrome Hearts fragrances? Please !!

[@yacine5148]

Hi Omar, thanks for the quality of your contents! Could you release a video related to deodorant from designers / niche brands ? Your expert opinion will be highly appreciated. Many people complain about the scent difference, the longevity, … A buying guide will help a lot ! Regards

[@Black_Cat_997]

Loewe 7 Cobalt doesn't seem to be available at normal prices in the U.S. and hasn't been for a while.

[@imjays5120]

im suprised more people dont talk about blue moon ginger dash

[@Nonamemyman]

Omar please make a collection review video

[@Sensabaugh]

A quick Google confirmed Chanel Allure Edition Blanche is £118 for 100ml as shown in this video. Uden on the other hand sell for about £230 for 50ml, so essentially 4 times as expensive per ml. Hardly just a little bit more expensive than the Chanel as implied.

[@SchoolofScent]

You can find Uden 50ml for £178 on frmoda, plus you’re going to likely use half the number of sprays with Uden, fragrances aren’t created equal ml for ml, when performance plays a part

[@Sensabaugh]

@@SchoolofScent Fair enough I suppose, but then equally you can probably find Edition Blanche lower than retail as well . Never heard of frmoda though, presume they are reliable and trustworthy?

[@Maverick1966]

I picked up Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche 100ml at duty free £86 last summer. I also just picked up Chanel Blue de Chanel Parfum 100ml at duty free at the beginning of April for £88. It was duty free + an extra 20% off for Easter weekend.

[@Sagginballs]

@@Sensabaughvery hard to find discounted Chanel, and I still get his point, if you’re already putting big money on a scent that doesn’t last, why not put some more money on something you will absolutely love and will last way longer?

[@Nonamemyman]

Hello Omar I have a question, does Valantino born in roma intense work as a signature scent for school ?

[@SchoolofScent]

Yes imo 🙂

[@siralfaofficial1995]

What about Versace Pour Homme

[@alimhzmh1400]

Great video Omar! As you compared the quality of Bentley and Dior, a question popped up in my head: Are you relying solely on your trained nose to measure the quality of the scent or do you feel that you’re a little biased because of the lower price point of Bentley? I’m asking this question because I think Bentley is high quality even compared to Idole Lubin. The longevity is definitely way better than those. I personally have that bias sometimes.

[@SchoolofScent]

To a certain extent, but I do think Bentley uses cheaper materials, but blended in a luxurious way, definitely a great performer, but Toy Boy often becomes super affordable and I think it smells niche, for example.

[@likeakloss]

Oud Wood Parfum vs Carved Oud video when?

[@ShantayYouSpray]

I got a sample of Black Panther from the Alexandria website; I got a sample of Tygar from my local Neiman Marcus. Spray one on each forearm and I'm stunned at how NOT a clone Black Panther is. It's a nice fragrance on its own, but I'm getting almost nothing that reminds me of Tygar except maybe superficial freshness. There's a touch of citrus on first spray of Black Panther, but it goes quickly into a soapy, cedary character. Tygar has much more of a zesty fruit with some spicy notes and much more of a musky and ambroxan base. Unless Alexandria sent me a mislabeled sample, I'm not seeing much more than a categorial similarity, and definitely not a clone.

[@user-on5qt9fj9s]

Agree, Moustache is impressive, smells way above its price tag.

[@thetravelingnomad6203]

Wonderful suggestions but as the salty Swede I must object strongly: one must own all Farenheit flankers there are ever produced!!

[@elliottwalker8447]

Yay Omar!!

[@bbbndddl]

I don't think Black Panther is an alternative to Sauvage. It might be a great scent, but it's in a different ballpark. The fact that both contain citrusses and ambroxan doesn't really make them alternatives 👀

[@Aditya-xd7zt]

I think you failed to understand the concept behind this video

[@edwardjohnson759]

Respectfully Omar, Rochas Moustache is not in the same stratosphere as The One EDP. No fricking way🙅🏾‍♂️ it may or may not, depending on chemistry, prevail in longevity, but that where any advantage begins or ends.

[@chiefgl1161]

Thy One Edp be thestuff of legends.

[@Sagginballs]

The one edp is so overrated, idc if you like the smell (not the greatest smell on earth just good) it lasts 3 hours and that’s not worth it.

[@mikekay213]

Farenheight cologne is also a great alternative to the original minus the petroleum smell

[@JamieKidman]

Tom Ford Noir Extreme alternative that performs?

[@SchoolofScent]

Noir Extreme does perform? You can try the Parfum version.

[@JamieKidman]

@@SchoolofScent Scent split for it lasted a while, when I bought a bottle it only lasted 4 hours max :(

[@dleeslife9023]

I'm going to be honest after owning all of these mentioned fragrance at some point beside uden by xerjoff not really seeing the coalitions the alternatives are drastically different then the originals really missed the mark on this one

[@osmathgreenle8986]

Now you will have 20 btls instead of just buying your 1st options. But people will keep on watching. Try B4 u buy!

[@eee-hi1kl]

My real question for you, Omar, is: How much percent of people watching you are subscribed nowadays? It can’t 32% since it’s a pre recorded video

11:21 I like when you state distinctions between fragrances based on facts, but here you state multiple times that dior parfum is better quality then bentley intense for men but you never give any examples of how or why it's better quality. Can you elaborate?

[@SchoolofScent]

More expensive smelling materials used
