You are so right on everything you say here. Lalique is a great choice as your number one. Caron reminds me my father and Cartier, I used to work for the company. It reminds me of work and my suits that would come home smelling of that fragrance since it came out at that time. Thank you for the video 👍 Great mustache BTW.

I bought Encre Noire last year on your recommendation and do not regret. $25 US and it smells on par with my more expensive frags. I like it more than my Versace Eros. Almost like it as much as Prada Luna Rossa Black, but I just ran out of that so this will be my main spray.

I just blind brought Hanae Mori HIM EDP, this was after looking at Tons of reviews on KZbin and Fragrantica. As soon as I sprayed it I KNEW I was going to like it, BUT.....It honestly gets better and better, within minutes I loved it! Just smells quality, I don't know about Gucci Pour Homme II, never put my nose on it, To my nose, it's a bit similar to the wonderful Spicebomb but more like another favorite of mine, Azzaro Wanted By Night, so far it's only been tested on my wrist, I then sat at a table and was drinking from a glass, it was wafting up at me even after my hand was resting on the table. I told my Son to take a sniff and he loved it, it's getting slightly more powdery after the Two-hour mark but just incredible, smells very expensive, a keep that's for sure, and so cheap!!! Buy it Guys, you won't go wrong!

I smelled the perfume in the store because I saw a lot of positive comments about it... I bought it.. The first time I put it on I smelled a rough and spicy smell and was very surprised because the store smelled more pleasant... After five hours I was going to wash my hands when I suddenly smelled a mesmerizing smell on me and I knew it was Reminds me of another perfume but in a crazy way .. I would say ... then I remembered that this perfume smells exactly like chanel bleu To be honest, I was shocked because none of the cases of perfumes in the world said that it smells like Chanel Bleu Many have noted that it reminds of Versace pure i can say that i have made a new and most importantly very interesting discovery! From Israel !!!

Ditto on Dark Rebel. The scent itself is one of my favorite, but the mediocre performance has me reaching for something else every time I consider wearing it. It has a castoreum note for Obi-Wan’s sake... Oh well. Will probably wear it tonight.

*Great picks Ashton! Cartier Déclaration d'un Soir and Lalique Encre Noir à L'Extrême would be my choice.* Got recently another cheap bargain: Conquest Personal Care - Addiction Gold Man. Notes: Mandarin, Nutmeg, Cardamom, Amber and Woody Notes. Not groundbreaking, but office-friendly performance. *Unbeatable price of 1,99€/50 ml!!! Synthetic, but pleasant ingredients quality. Bought a backup bottle, LOL!* ☕😂👌

[@TheApollo2579]

I picked up 4.2 oz tester bottles of dark rebel & dark rebel rider @ an Elizabeth Arden outlet store in San Marcos, Tx for around ten dollars a piece. They are solid fragrances and for the price I paid I spray it on myself just being at home out of principle because I don’t regularly get much use out of them due to the hot weather in Tx.

Declaration D'un Soir is an outstanding fragrance and I am so sorry to say that I paid full retail for it. 😕I want to echo that the rose note in this fragrance is not feminine at all, just fresh and beautiful. In fact, I really didn't even recognize it as rose until I saw the notes listed on Fragrantica. Great list!

Hanae Mori's HiM (1 I have) vs. Chic for Men Carolina Herrera, Spark for Men by Liz Claiborne, Dolce & Gabbana PH, Signature for Men by S.T.

[@raulsaavedra709]

Thanks to a recommendation from Agnes Eva I checked today Tabac Fire Power. Bought it on the spot, what a bargain! €10.95 for 50ml. In spite of the name it doesn´t smell aggresive or in your face at all to me, rather subdued and in a way I´d even say ultimately "calm." Smells incredibly pleasant and "well rounded" for me. Tabac Original is double the price, and I like this one a lot more (Tabac Original to me is quite too unisex, maybe rather more feminine than unisex even.) This is something else, and could have been a lot more expensive and I would have still bought it

Years ago I had a sample of Hanae Mori Him EDT that I liked and used up. So I decided I wanted to get a bottle, and I read a bunch of reviews and decided on Hanae Mori Him EDP. It was described as "richer" and "creamier" than the EDT. Now years later I decided I wanted to get a bottle of Hanae Mori Him EDT as well since it was still inexpensive, and I wanted to get it while it's still available. In my opinion, the EDP has a sweet, syrupy thickness to it, while the EDT is more transparent in a way. And because of this, out of the two versions of Hanae Mori Him, I think the EDT is the most similar to Gucci Pour Homme II (which I also have a bottle of). I hope this helps!
