10 Cheap Clone Fragrances BETTER Than The Original

[@N7Tigger]

I'll give you one thing, Ash. After LV and MFK started copyright striking videos pretty much every other youtuber stopped using the word "clone" and even stopped showing bottles on camera. Glad to see you standing your ground.

[@charmiunadkat4609]

They actually did that ???

[@Rickkhry]

That shouldnt be a reason for copyright striking, these big companies and youtube are so 🏳️‍🌈

[@SmellsAddicted]

Editor used the bottle of Scandal for women

[@scentrant]

i was gonna comment that

[@GoranAbraxas]

And a weird Angels' Share bottle.

[@jamesluft5792]

Who ever edit this video is not into fragrance, based on these mistakes.

[@josephbeenchanged990]

​@GoranAbraxas that's the 250ml

[@GoranAbraxas]

@@josephbeenchanged990 True, a carafe - still, the point stands. I'm not a casual observer and it was even my first time seeing that bottle. The mistake is even more pronounced since Ashton made a point about bottle similarity, like it's obvious just looking at the bottle that it's an Angels' Share clone - and then the one editing puts in this carafe that looks different.

[@ELOQUENTVESSEL]

Might want to scale back on the AI use or whomever is editing the videos. Several wrong bottles being displayed for the original. Hopefully you're not paying for that editing.

[@evn556]

That’s crazy you post about Essential, have been looking into it recently and hadn’t seen anything about it anywhere. Nice, i’ll pick it up soon.

[@dooddood536]

I bought Rasasi's Its Essential after watching this video, I already have L'homme Ultime so I did a side by side comparison once i received it. Initially Its Essential smells sharp, but after 2-3 minutes, it smells basically identical to Ultime. It even lasted 2 hours more than that actual Ultime, basically fixed the performance problems of Ultime.

[@thefeniksflight]

CDNP is absolutely fantastic. Right now, it's the king of that Aventus profile and might even do it better than Creed. I wore it for the first time yesterday and LET ME TELL YOU! It is absolute perfection from start to finish. That Aventus profile with the slighty added sweetness and musk is to die for. I was catching whiffs of it throughout the day. To my absolute surprise, I was still catching whiffs of it on me after FOURTEEN HOURS. You heard that right: 14 HOOOOOUUUURS. I loved every second of it, so I'm wearing it again today. 😍😍😍 My only issue with it is the price for the amount. This should have been the same price at 75ml, not 55ml. That's just me, though.

[@YouLookinAtMe-Bro]

As long as a high dollar discontinued fragrance is cloned at least 80% I would pay $50-$75. I usually stay within the $30-$50 for most... especially while trying to build my collection.

[@ocho5292]

I’m under 25 but I absolutely love Eternal Oud it’s such a pleasant intimate fragrance and in my experience it’s very inoffensive

All great colognes. But I don’t get tired of saying that Rare Carbon is really really underrated. It’s amazing. Performs amazing. Lasts for hours and hours. All day. I’ve gotten many compliments.

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great video and I enjoyed it and I'm going to try these fragrances and have a blessed day

[@oliver21.]

The new style of editing makes the videos less enjoyable to watch to be honest. I would recommend keeping it simple and without some over the top editing. My opinion :)

[@uhsemehicieronlas3]

agree

[@StudioTrainor]

Yeah the editing for real got me in a weird mood. It feels like I’m in a different dimension. I know that’s crazy, but for real, I liked the old editing style. I feel like the music was turned down too, so it’s just weird

[@idrissbelahsen]

i agree, its hard to watch because you know he will constantly try to be funny, sarcastic, sounds, cuts, edits... just talk about thr cologne and leave it at that like it was before

[@organicgrief]

it's because he's outsourcing the editing (maybe he was before the presentation changed as well, but the style is drastically different) . the new studio marked the shift, ever since then it's been weird and kinda lame honestly.

[@1852live]

Instant thumbs up 👍🏾 for that Rare Carbon! 🔥 Love from South Africa! 🇿🇦 ✌🏾

[@dillonjohnston5396]

Awesome take on these clones, the price point is what makes these really amazing. I’d love to see you cover the Lidl clones, their Sauvage clone (G. Bellini Homme Paris EDP) is INSANE for the price point of €5. They have a few others as well like Bleu de Chanel, 1 Million, Invictus & Cool Water. Basically major staple colognes. In fact I now officially request you do a video with all of these I just mentioned. I’m sure you and all of us viewers would not be disappointed!! I mean €5! C’mon man Thanks in advance 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@elijah.espino]

Armaf CDNI Precieux 1 has become my new signature scent. I bought 2 bottles. It is just PURE AMAZINGNESS!!! 100% worth it even as a blind buy

Love your videos, Ash (please put the $ on the correct side of the numbers… it drives me insane). I’m preparing my fall/winter scent palette, and I wanted to get your (ie: the community) impression: for signature, I went with Spicebomb: Infrared; for date night, I’m with La nuit de l’Homme. For everyday/casual, I picked up Spectre: Ghost and Wraith, along with After Effect for the holidays. What do you think? Do I need more diversity?

[@DJM2023_]

Exactly 40$

[@abusihaa6396]

Great video Ash and I think Fragrance World AMBER EVE is a better interpretation of MFK'S Grand Soir than the Lattafa's Eternal Oud

[@Mister-Mayhem37]

Does Ash even look at these comments or reply to any of them?? C'mon people!

[@MarcuzTamayo]

Hey dude, which Angel's Share clone should I get? Royal Blend, Sharaf Blend or Celerio Epic? And as always great video dude, always insightful and informative with the fragrances you review.

[@miket8497]

Each has been called the best at one time or another. Minimal differences. Choose based on price.

[@chrisballard5743]

Based on scent Celerio Epic by a mile. The hype is definitely real.

Fun idea- do a masterclass series about any level (clones, niche, designer, presentation, etc)

I've been chilling since I got a bunch of winter scents but now that it's summer I'm back lol

[@FlipGardener]

In one of your videos, you said Celerio Epic was the absolute best Angels’s Share clone. So you think Royal Blend is now even better than Celerio? Just clarifying. It would help a lot.

[@jamescodling8641]

[@arad907]

Hi mate, Thanks for reviewing new clones. I get tremendous weak silage and longevity from Music Fest, and didn’t test the original Jazz Club. Would you please give me comparison between the Music Fest and Jazz Club on Silage and longevity? If the original isn’t much better, I don’t want to blind buy it. Thanks 🙏

[@requiem2074]

sorry but i did not like the new edit style, and the other problem is, that maybe the editor does not know much about fragrences, because it shows like a different angels share bottle, and a womans scandal instead of men

I made the mistake of blind buying Eternal Oud , and I can say without a doubt it was the WORST purchase I ever made. It's just horrendous, sticky sweet and the oud is very potent. I tried to give it away among some people at the office and nobody took it. The cherry on top is that it will stain your clothes! , Now , I've never smelled the original MFK frag, and I'm not interested. Cubaknow and Post Cologne recommended this thing to death , when it's absolute garbage. Be aware guys this is not a safe blind buy by any means.

As long as clone companies make products in the vein Soprano Soul rather than Music Festival... I am happy to support great smelling and performing fragrances for the price point. These compaines have to cater to the general public amd not the even smaller group that searches for the tiniest hints of quality that niche fragrances carry. The public doesn't care about how tue lavender cascades over the citrus notes, juxtaposed to the sandalwood... Like what?!!!
