STREET SCENTS coming at you from The Creed Boutique with Luis. This time Luis tell us How To Tell If My Creed Is Real or Fake.... Check it out don't forget to RATE/COMMENT/SUBSCRIBE...... Look out for more STREET SCENTS at The Creed Boutique in the near future....

[@5urg3x]

Fragrancenet without a doubt does not sell fakes. They're just old / overstock. Sometimes you get a bad one...I dunno, IMHO Creed fragrances just don't seem to stand the test of time unless you keep them cool / dark. I know people say you should do that with ALL frags, but whatever...I just think Creeds really noticeable change their scents based on the environment you keep them in, and it doesn't take that much time to change them either.

[@JaimeGonzalez-714]

12:18 "we used the sands from the beaches to sand the bottle" 😂😂

[@ao3312]

"Oh wait, thats the real one" hehehe

[@Lcd4lbad]

😂😂😂this is *hilarious!!* The guy with the cap never knew the difference between the fake and the real!!! Did u see the part where he was like, look, this fake one is squeaky AND the cap is hard to come off...then a second later he said, oh wait, this is the real one!! 😯 😂😂😂😂😁😁😂😂😂

[@nestormarte817]

They should of edit that out...lol

[@Jdmtunerlover]

Lmfao oh looooord such a faaaail

[@Achtonio]

Haha yea that was funny as hell 😂

[@jek4837]

I'm glad it happened. I just got my first Creed in the mail today from fragrancenet. I thought I'd gotten a fake because of the tight cap and squeak. I'm feeling a lot better about it now.

[@josema_fernandez]

I just came to read the comments bc of that lol

[@StreetScentsAL]

Thanks Marc for watching and for the great video idea. Me and Luis are going to shoot another video real soon will also try to do one on this as well.

[@dominiccormier6236]

Creed is the Bomb no joke i used to thing its was just a trendy house but its up there for me with frederic male, amouage , TF private blend just amazing fragrance one after another

[@psncoolpjhq]

Just recently got into creed. Did my extensive research. I have looked for discounts or promo price & the links that I have found on different sites are very questionable. I have found bottles that are about 40 % off. That's very questionable and tempting especially when you are buying a Creed Frag which already comes with a high dollar price. Bottom line: Creed is expensive. I've accepted that. If I buy a Creed, I will only purchase it from a Auth seller or from their website. That's all. I would rather pay full price and know the fact that my CREED is original without questioning myself and have sleepless night.

[@ViezePoeperd]

5:32 Have to agree here though. Creed's caps are kind of cheap when you consider the price. Amouage is only a little bit more expensive but their caps are waaay better.

[@fifafreak6193]

A Humble thank you to both of you guys for taking the time to educate us who need those extra tips. As always great video. Thank you Al, thank you Luis

[@_NEW3RA_]

Silver mountain is a beast. That stuff smells good.

[@cherokeebriggs510]

Not beast compared to aventus

[@_NEW3RA_]

@@cherokeebriggs510 I like silver mountain water better.

[@SecretofSquare]

Good stuff guys. Happy to be able to see this and have a point of comparison.

[@foxysardar]

This Chanel should be called creed Marketing Chanel!!

[@SICKPERRO903]

I received Silver Mountain Water as a gift. Purchased from Neiman Marcus, My father bought 2 bottles. I've never had the pleasure of smelling Aventus and I must say it smells DAMN good! Definitely getting the gentlemen's collection!

[@JaimeGonzalez-714]

"we use the sands from the beaches" 😂😂 let me guess, there's hints of God's saliva in there.

[@RefinerSimilitude]

Objection, your Honor, leading the witness.

[@RyzFragz34]

Awesome vid Guys!!! Thanks for the video, this will answer so many questions for people who are not familiar. Luis is definitely a class act. He actually took the time and talked to me close to an hour on the phone. Great guy. Absolutely love everything about this house. Thanks again Al.

[@silverssonyoutube8438]

I agree $330 a bottle the juice is good but the price is it really worth it ? I'd rather get Tom ford . but hell to have the best frags you have to pay for it and that's where most of us are sitting on that fence line cos none of us wants to pay that . if creed was selling their frags for $180 then I'd buy it in a blink .

[@theswillz3456]

Wow!! I was literally about to purchase a bottle of Aventus from Fragnet. It seems like I'll be going to Neiman. Thanks AL. Not worth the risk

[@carlossosa2940]

fragrancenet is good man i purchased too many fragrance from them and never had problem with them ,,, i buy from ebay too but im really careful when buying ebay but i buy from a seller who has cero bad feedback so thats a good signal but i preffer fragrancenet but i have never tryied buy creed

[@purpledc1]

Seriously? there is no risk if your educated. If you educate yourself its relatively easy to save a shit ton and protect yourself from scams. IMHO its more risky getting splits than buying on ebay. At least ebay will get your money back. Try telling someone they shorted you 10ml.

[@icecherrycoke]

tim moran Yo, what about Amazon? I see Creed on there. Think it's real? I'd like to buy some from there...

[@purpledc1]

Personally I have not purchased creed from amazon. I have heard of people having plenty of success though. In many cases when you buy a fragrance from amazon it is filled by another store that sells on amazon. With that in mind many times you may be able to find a better deal on it from that companies actual website. It really depends though on who is doing the selling. The good thing about amazon unlike some auction sites is that Amazon really has your back. If you get a fake they will back you up. And if you read the fine print and it says "filled by amazon" You really have nothing to worry about in the event of anything out of the ordinary showing up on your front porch.

[@odell2970]

Look snapp d. Seeing is believing. Buy one from Nieman and one from fragrance net and I guarantee u they are the same. Don't fall for this fake ass video. These fuckers are not telling the truth.

[@Andy-yk8xm]

good vid man...I just asked drac this question but hes a pro and couldn't recommend any websites other than the brand site. The frustrating part is a bottle most likely cost no more then 20 bucks to make lol but I'm all about authenticity...keep em comin

[@paulreynolds9430]

Love this video saved me LOADS of money.

[@gherasimtibi]

to be honest, even the real ones look fake because creed does not care much about the bottle, its the juice they care about. i have alot of real ones and dont expect an amazing bottle.

[@giovannit5676]

Al we need more of these videos bro keep them coming I always look forward to these videos with Luis

[@CoachRob619]

Great video Al, this could be way most complaint about longevity with Creeds when 90% buy them from online retailers. I wish he would've said which ones.

[@ChaosMcCain]

This cologne/perfume boutique small retail counter was selling Aventus for 305 and the bottle and box look so fake. I walked 40 feet and bought a genuine one with no doubts from

[@allen31951]

Amazing. Thanks for bringing this video to us. I am very paranoid about buying fragrances on-line. Do reputable department stores ever get a fake supply of a quality fragrance?

[@robes08]

AL great video my friend, hoping that you can do a small video on the grey caps one day would really love for you to go into them a little bit. Luis did great here as always.

[@BrocMajorz718]

Thanks for all the great info !!

[@Sulkanator]

Nice video, Al. You and Luis work well together. Thanks for putting the video together.

[@DrunkWatchReviews]

Love these vids from the Creed boutique Al. You're a true gent. Luis is a great ambassador to the brand as well, they are lucky to have him.

[@theswillz3456]

Great video Al. It's pretty simple, either but your creeds from an authorized retailer or it's a fake.

[@Starrchild65]

Thanks Al. You and Luis had me examining my bottles along with this video. I was waiting for him to take the sprayer nozzle off to check for the white spacer ring. Enjoyed this video.

[@jmo1115]

Bought Aventus at Neiman Marcus is $370 after tax. While I was there I picked up some samples. Decided I wasn't going to pay $350 for my next Creeds so I went through fragrancenet and compared them to the NM samples... The online ones were spot on! Luis and Al are awesome and have good intentions but a little misleading there about online discounters. eBay is just asking for a fake.

[@giovannit5676]

so is fragrancenet a ripoff?

[@pepelotudo5692]

I purchased GIT from fragrance net and got a sample from scent.com, they smell identical and really smell good and its projection last for 8hrs. I will sprayed 3x around 8pm, go out, next morning I can still smell it on me. I also get compliments from people. Silver Mountain water smell good but it’s a very weak for being a creed and to pricey; now Himalaya smell very similar to it and the smell last like it should. Another thing I didn’t hear the creed salesmen said that when you sprayed it on your skin the liquid supposed to look glossy and oily. Aventus and Bois de Portugal are really good as well and its projection last for ever. Before you buy creed from any other store get sample from the creed boutique and from the store you are purchasing it from and comprare them and also check the batch # as well. Fragrance net and scent sales the real product never have issues from them, 5 stars rating.

[@attuso20]

By far the best street scents ever! So Almost all of the fragcom has fugasi creeds from fragrancenet and other online retailers? Wtf. I want my money back damn it. Lol. But seriously, great video man. Luis is the man.

[@aboudhabatain1896]

Great Video .... Great info,... Keep up the great work..

[@TheSparkythespark]

To everyone worrying they have a fake, I can say categorically, from experience that both Fragrancex and Fragrancenet do not sell fakes; that is the unanimous decision of the Basenotes and Fragrantica communities also. Me personally, I purchased my bottle of Aventus directly from the Creed Boutique in Dubai, and a week later someone who bought the exact same batch from Fragrancenet was discussing it on Basenotes, so it isn't old juice either. I'd be wary of eBay though.

[@aikjones1]

Might need to make a new version of this for 2020.

[@MorethanGUNZ]

Great video, amazing to see Creed take the extra time to do this. This video is going to help a lot of people.

[@Queondacutpodcast]

this guy could sell anything in his dreams

[@casper11ify]

I have several colognes but im starting to look into Creed, can someone tell me which one is more popular? Which is the best Cologne from creed out of all of them...

[@XanoviaScents]

Great and very informative video... Thanks guys...

[@brankb83]

I love your vids Al! Keep up the great work!

[@BoChosen]

Good stuff, Al. Fake Creed is all over the place that's for sure. Get your bottles from legit sources, period! Luis is a good cat too...

[@famyip]

Great video, Al. Love your innovative way of doing reviews of scents too! I felt you when you said about treating everyone the same. Had that experience 2 weeks ago hunting for a sport scent. Arrived with a tshirt and all sweaty at a Chanel counter at a dep store in Hong Kong, and the girl told me to go smell the cap of Allure Sport! Got a totally different approach at a Dior counter and went with Dior Homme Sport.

[@Guinea54]

I thinkt he problem is more complicated and more difficult for the community. Many people buy from fragrancenet, or on facebook groups etc.. Not everyone might have an original creed to compare it to.... Add to creeds batch variations and people might never know if they have a fake.

[@terryharris2805]

Save 25 a week and you can have ur creed next month. That's the best way to do it.

[@wagsbass]

These Creed vids are so much fun Al.

[@campionmundial8223]

Hey al. I have only ordered one creed from creed boutique and the rest i purchased from neiman marcus. Ive seen creed available on sites such as fragrancex and fragrancenet. I have purchased other fragrances from them and was satisfied but i never purchased a niche frag from them. Are niche safe to buy from them?

[@radfordhealsworth607]

Yes I buy Creed from fragrancenet all f****** day Ash it is legit as at it with a hit and a split

[@Deonteashe]

How about eBay ?

[@ChaosMcCain]

Any body have an idea of How many sprays are recommended ? And where should u spray it ?

[@silverssonyoutube8438]

most likely . does your bottle look like the real one in the video ?

[@Ateyaaa]

Beautyencounter is real CREED...Allot of online fragrances are...Fragrancenet too...I would never BUY AMAZON...now thats FAKE

[@odell2970]

Hey bae creed on amazon is real to. So is fragrancex, fragranceshop, and fragrance net.

[@dinelalumiere7986]

I just discovered fragrancenet thkx to u. That site looks like a hell of a good site.

[@shafserious2805]

Virgin island water- Banging!! Silver mountain water-Banging! Next on list: original vetiver. (Aventus is nice but wasnt too impressed)

[@zasaf]

Had no idea they they fake them this good. Very useful video al, keep it up.

[@lordzlordz]

You need to do a video on the proper way to apply fragrances. A video with Luis and how he applies his fragrances would be great.

[@giovannit5676]

ill second that :)

[@curtflirt2]

To be honest, my most complimented fragrances have been from the Creeds I have. The JFK vetiter aka Creed 1948 and the Royal Oud are the tops

[@blackbass4u2c]

So why isn't creed going after companies like Amazon and others for selling rip off companies.

[@singlecan2]

Nice vid Al... good to know the info...

[@utpaalbadwaik7638]

just want to know one thing i fake ones perform ??? can they copy the notes, longevity, projection cause i generally buy online only the one's which i used earlier bought from duty free shops or from departmental stores. now a days they copy bottle and packaging soo m just dependent on the performance. So do let me know

[@StreetScentsAL]

We spoke about Batch Variations in a previous video The Gentlemen's Collection/Batch Variations

[@marcellusrgiovanni370]

Best thing is to buy in person and at a credited licensed store, that way it should eliminate any suspicion

[@DS-ff6ze]

or on fragrancenet

[@TheCoolmandingo]

is it authentic when buying from that company.

[@DS-ff6ze]

I bought creed there 4 times. All legit

[@TheCoolmandingo]

***** ok thank you . I was just about to purchase directly from Creed. They are now asking $395 for the 4.0 bottle. I love but wow.

[@TheCoolmandingo]

***** ayo it is NOT legit because I brought in the bottle from Fragrancenet into the Creed boutique yesterday and they said it was not real. They diluted the liquids with a bunch of alcohol. Im not afraid to say you don't know what youre talking about. You had me buying some bullshit and wasting my money. good thing I sending it back and getting money back. I bought the real bottle from the Crred boutique and not some bullshit site that sells fake products. you more than likely for them. I don't suggest anyone buy from Fragrancenet. they obviously sell fake and diluted products.

[@Queondacutpodcast]

Marketing Genius!

[@Bendova215]

That's exactly what i got online from fragrancenet almost identical but weaker smelling exactly how he described it took it to Neiman Marcus and could instantly smell the difference

[@Queondacutpodcast]

this is a hilarious video

[@mheusler]

Curt, I don't know. But Luis said that you can only get them at Creed and authorized resellers, Amazon ain't an authorized reseller.

[@Kologne]

Great video very informative guys!

[@xlunax-vlogs-3556]

Srsly, as far as caps go...I went to Neiman and the Tom Ford counter has at least one frag with a broken lid. Should have seen the SA try to get a sample.

[@adrianobello7452]

Thanks for making this video Al, just want you to know how appreciated it is by all us fragheads out there. This is great information. Keep making these great videos, awesome

[@michaellyran5007]

I LOVE Creed!! So do all my friends and everyone I know. We buy different Creeds then atomize them and share them so we have a collection! Definitely worth the money! The quality of Creed is unparalleled. Anyone with any class and good taste can clearly tell the obvious difference :) :) :) :)

[@Rcova84]

Is it save to buy a green Irish Tweed from fragrancenet.com???

[@tinoarling8340]

Creed rocks the house here in sweden...

[@ta95200]

I'm gonna go on record here and say that the 1 oz. bottle of Aventus I bought from Overstock for $75 smells EXACTLY like the sample vial I got from the Creed boutique on Madison Ave. I just compared again after watching this video. So yeah, even if it is a fake, ignorance is bliss and much more affordable. Just IMO... No disrespect to anyone.

[@aldoheredia4568]

Any of you purchased from Costco it smells good but I can’t smell the pineapple in it.

[@StylinRed]

recently bought 2 bottles of REL from ebay collectors, one was exactly like all my previous bottles the other was a bit off, very slightly, but smells the same, lasts the same, with the same impact...but im still suspicious...wish Creed wouldn't have vaulted REL

[@NOC571]

great video. Maybe, next time you guys can talk more about the Royal Exclusives, specially Jardin d'Amalfi.

[@frankbing1]

I think due to the fact that like any parfum and the amount of batches they make it would be hard to say what was a fake

[@cerversa]

Your best vid ever Al... :-)

[@kenlab77]

I know I've got legit Creeds at fragrance net, but I know one day I'll get burned like I did on Ebay. But that was my fault. But great vid Al!

[@solefreak2]

Is there anyway of checking batch/LOT no's on Creeds website for authenticity?

[@davoncoley4924]

Checkfresh.com

[@nicola722]

Great video Al. Now did any of the fake bottles have lot or serial numbers engraved on the bottles?

[@curtflirt2]

I realize that they didn't say much that would really stand out as to telling the different but you have to remember if he gave away the true secrets, then everybody would be copying them and wouldn't need to go to the boutique or wouldn't go most likely at all.

[@KeetyPooh]

Yeah, the Silver Mountain Water is so close it is scary.

[@StreetScentsAL]

Me and Luis have a couple of new videos coming real soon, anything you want to see let me know

[@KingPharroh]

I love Creed fragrances. Very high quality.

[@TheSparkythespark]

Luis is a class act, even down to not revealing the name of the wholesaler that deals in fakes. But c'mon Al, you have to let us know!

[@Tangentbordsblues]

that sounds like a really douchy move not to reveal it

[@rafaelbalarezo4059]

Hi AL Im kinda new with Niche Perfumes, I recently bought Aventus from Fragrancenet and Interlude from Beauty Spin, I have some decants from Saks, Neiman's and Bloomingdales and my decants smells some exactly the same and some other just about the same, can you give me an advice from these websites please? Thank you so much for all the videos that you made, thank you for your time to make them.

[@odell2970]

Those sites you mentioned are totally legit. This is how creed discount there product.

[@michaeltrowbridge7174]

Look at the bottom label and the inner ring

[@StreetScentsAL]

Thank You

[@thunderstorm70]

According to Luis, half the Creed's I see in peoples collection vids are fake...even fooled Al a couple of times. Great info. Now lwt me go examine my bottle of GIT and see if it sparkles like it has been polished by beach sand from Greece.

[@WaylonCarruthers]

SMW, my personal favorite from Creed. Also Olivier Creeds favorite, if I remember correctly.

[@Patrikduke]

Awesome video, thanks!

[@RefinerSimilitude]

5:33 OOPS, haha. Another reviewer pointed out how bad the Creed bottle presentation was on his Aventus. His cap was loose / rattling and there was a bubble under the label sticker.

[@kidviper2006]

Al, I respect your channel!!

[@bigguy8]

I found 2 websites that sell sample vials which I was considering before buying the big bottle now I'm scared I'm just getting imitation if I buy

[@fetalmalice]

Power of suggestion at its best. Unless hat boy is just a yes man.

[@calicushsmoke]

I was going to ask Al this..thanks for the clarification

[@Bakithedachshund]

he didnt even knew at 5:50

[@triktrak_1451]

This Creed employee is ridiculously repeating to newbies "your nose will tell you." It absolutely will not. A novice has no idea what they're smelling, much less the quality of ingredients or the formulation. And his best advice is for them to trust their own ignorance. So unfortunately this video piles ignorance on top of ignorance.

[@mislevis]

Very helpful, 10x Luis and Al.

[@alexcalderon1033]

I love creed fragrances. My favorite is the aventus, strangely the middle notes of the cheaper bulgari extreme smells the same. Nevertheless creed lasts longers nad maintains that smokey pineappke scent throughout.

[@akbarnitti]

where is your boutique located??i love creed fragrances

[@eugenegutierrez3319]

People the reason why this cologne are expensive due to ingredients are natural not synthetic.. The saying goes spend more spray less... spray more, spend less which means it doesnt last which you apply more due to less concentration...
