French Avenue Cocoa Morado | Better Than The Real Thing?

[@danielleharley-laws1785]

Your totally right, I wait until Black Friday or some sort of sale on TikTok to buy the Middle Eastern dupe Fragrences as I can see the prices are creeping up, I have over 300 Fragrences I am not paying £50 for a dupe I will just get the original I know that is still a good price but if I love the fragrance I will just get the original if I like it but not love it I will get a dupe…..!but for the original I sprayed it on my hand a couple weeks ago I Harrods and the smell is still there on my coat sleeve 👀

[@prodadamsied]

glad you doing youtube fr now bro. very entertaining to watch.

[@TJTalksScents]

Thank you bro - the kind words mean a lot trust me!

[@arymhansie]

You are the only one who has actually mentioned how expensive these dupes are becoming! I would rather save for the original if prices continue like this.

[@madridiswine]

Yeah, well done, CACAO Morado 30 €, Oud Cadenza 215 €. I have got both.

[@deanjordan7936]

Great review mate. I’ve got the other two and this one’s on the way. Just got noble notes and for me it’s the closest ombre nomad dupe I’ve tried.

[@TJTalksScents]

Thank you bro! Noble Notes is really strong!

[@Luke-qq4os]

I just googled this broksi I will grab this and not only intense collectors next. Hope you are feeling better love

[@Det1911]

I appreciate this review because you actually have the original and you're very familiar with it everyone else is making assumptions I never smelled the original but I have the dupe and I like it so far appreciate the good work

[@TJTalksScents]

Thanks a lot my brother! Really appreciate that 🫡

[@retrostu1]

Totally agree that they smell very close. The dupe does smell stronger, but the original smells less harsh / better blended. Can’t fault it for the price though!

[@kevinmckernan2753]

Dipropylene Glycol or Triethyl Citrate (DPG / TEC) are solvents which you'll see in fragrances sometimes. Definitely makes the skin oily. Usually added into high concentration formulas with huge amounts of powders / solids as at exrait strengths can re-crystalize with alcohol only.

I need a top 10 oud fragrances video 😙

[@TJTalksScents]

You can't go wrong with it bro! I hope she enjoys it! 🫡

High skin fade, simples 💈

[@nilpsin18]

U gotta try “Oud cadence” by Loui Martin and let me kno if it’s good .

[@TJTalksScents]

Appreciate you I defo will!

[@knightrider8359]

Everyone eventuality succumbs to the clone game lol. We're broke out here in these streets

[@TJTalksScents]

Not one lie told there!

[@yagizhannn]

Would you say this fragrance is suitable for an 18 year old guy, for date or formal occasions?

[@Sami-kz2op]

Not really, there are way better alternatives

[@TJTalksScents]

I see no reason why not - it's more sweet than it is dark so I think it will work 🤝

[@Principemostprincipe]

I mean, original is made quite cheaply, and it is extremly overpriced for what it is, so i suppose they did this clone reasonably good

[@Rachiid1]

Hi TJ how much hours du get on Azure Aoud please ?

[@TJTalksScents]

I get 8-9

[@Rachiid1]

@TJTalksScents Thanks. I wore Cocoa Morado today. Complex and very appealing !!

[@chlita.1arda]

The only real oud fragrance I have is from the Cartier line but honestly it’s not that deep Ombré Nomade is fake oud but still smells good when I wear it but it’s better when houses are up-front about using fake oud imo. I like how you talk a bit about wearability my bro most reviewers talk way too much about describing the notes g I want to hear about the experience overall.

[@SKF_777]

Louis Vuitton does not use Fake Oud. They may add an oud accord to the oud itself but there is real oud in them.

[@chlita.1arda]

@ I’m pretty sure Jacques Cavallier uses firmenich which contains synthetic oud molecules g but no real oud in there

[@SKF_777]

@chlita.1arda first - you can go to their website. I don't think they will write down on there that it's oud from Assam that they are using if it's not. Second - firmenich is not synthetic molecule but a company supplying these molecules and other parfum oils. Louis Vuitton kind of has some exclusive oils to make their products unique. Don't think they have a firmenich supply.

[@TJTalksScents]

Yeah man that's what I hate too when it's too much on the notes. People need to know the best occasions and environments that we think it would work best. Thank you my brother!

[@LeZer17]

im sorry but i don t get ur point in the price point , dupes are not just middle easterns u have designers dupe at huge price points and just becasue they are designer ur not calling them sometimes for what they are . for this one you get more quantity and quality ingredients for a lot more less than the crivelli one so even at the 80 pounds price point its still a great buy even tho the lesser the better but this apply for every other perfumes

[@clawer2969]

Better quality ingredients in the dupe? Are you mad. None of these dupes use ORPUR essential ingredients.

[@keneferdinand9761]

No such thing as dupe IMO if you make good perfume everyone would buy it the goal is to smell good and that’s period….

[@TJTalksScents]

For the longest time dupe fragrances were at much cheaper price points then they are now. Now they are increasing in price rapidly. I agree with you that designer houses are making dupe fragrances as well, at a higher price point. But I concluded the video with saying at this price this fragrance is defo worth it..

[@LeZer17]

@ I know I’m just saying they their price is raising because their quality is following up so no surprise in there and still hits a good mark when it comes to price point quality ratio worth

[@Anonymous-sh8kc]

Bro just said " Bota of wota"

[@TJTalksScents]

Haha I'm from London allow me 🤣

[@landonle9329]

TJ, do you have a contact email I can contact? I’m a new fragrance founder and would love to work with you. 😅
