I Found ANOTHER Discontinued Niche Scent! | Rack Store Fragrance Haul

[@ChadVanHook]

I love Commodity Tea. I found it at my TJ Maxx. I get the calming vibe, but at the same time,, I also find it uplifting.. I really hope the company gets back into full swing. They had such good offerings.

[@gerardgeorge]

You nailed it Chad. I hope so as well! Thanks for watching

[@grooviestneedle]

Great video, thanks for taking us along for the store visit. Really added to the video for those who have never shopped at the rack giving them an idea of the potential pickups !

[@gerardgeorge]

You’re very welcome I enjoy doing them!

[@erica35mm]

Nice find!!!! I personally didn’t love tea, I also found it at the rack store!

[@gerardgeorge]

Did you do a vid on it? I didn’t see it

[@FunkyD50]

Commodity Is a great brand! I have the Bergamot one. I’ll be on the lookout for the Tea scent.

[@gerardgeorge]

I was really surprised by it. Nice scent

[@chandlerpierce7756]

Watching the tip off of the Celtics game and you drop this heat! It has to be because you’re near a true major city in Boston finding the nieche stuff. Another great video tho!!! I’ve also thought about the 212 sexy lately

[@gerardgeorge]

My man!!! Go Celtics. Thanks brother

Commodity Tea is the star of this selection. I stopped by my local TJ Maxx and picked up a couple of bottles before they are gone forever (doesn't look like the new Commodity is reviving this particular scent). When Commodity went out of business and the remaining stock was dumped on TJ Maxx and Marshalls a few years ago I picked up a lot of their fragrances, but Tea was the last one I purchased as an afterthought. It was a banged up open-box marked down clearance bottle and I ended up loving it and searching for another bottle at a reasonable price. I am very happy that finally I got a second chance.

[@gerardgeorge]

It is a fantastic scent. So happy to have added it to the collection. I went on commodity’s site and in addition to the rebranding it seems they have dropped tea from the lineup.

[@angiegarrett2757]

I just bought Tea too. What a hidden gem! Glad I found it.

[@ucantfixstupid7443]

Hey Gerard. I just picked up that Commodity tea the other day too. I have been looking for that one for a long time. Looking forward to wearing it in the next couple of days. Thanks for the review.

[@gerardgeorge]

I really like it. Something different.

[@rcarrbcarr]

Great video! I would recommend you spend some time with the Jimmy Choo Man Ice, the dry down is great. Musky and green. That lemonade opening doesn't last long.

[@gerardgeorge]

Will do!

[@chrispaul9124]

They have 4 little cologne sets of the English Laundry if you would like to try them before you buy them. They smell good but the longevity is like 2 hrs tops for me

[@gerardgeorge]

Yea I’ve tried most of not all of them. As you said all smell great performance is a major issue for them.

[@bellantwain21]

Love the video G stay motivated dream big 1 mill on the way

[@gerardgeorge]

👍🏼

[@FunkyD50]

Gerard, I’m in Boston now and saw the Aqua Di Parma scents at the TJ Maxx off Chauncey st I believe. The rep was nice enough to let me sample them. They are 3 pc sets, but you’re right; you can find them cheaper on line.

[@gerardgeorge]

Really cool they let you sample . Hope you are enjoying your time here!

[@mikekay9529]

Looking forward to the AF Extreme vs first instinct video. Just picked up the Extreme a couple weeks ago and I think it was a steal. Solid find.

[@gerardgeorge]

Excellent. I think you’ll enjoy it

[@brianclark6294]

I got the English laundry London from my tj maxx a couple weeks ago. The dry down is close to aventus but performance is super weak! Only lasted 45 minutes on my skin! Maybe different for someone else. Hope this helps

[@gerardgeorge]

I figured the performance was lackluster. I got the same from the invictus clone they have.

[@brianclark6294]

@@gerardgeorge oh yeah man the smell is amazing but lacks everywhere else. Good thing it was only $12.99 but ots worth that to keep on you or in your gym bag or lunch box to re-apply later in the day, not overpowering at all

[@gerardgeorge]

@@brianclark6294 perfect gym bag scent for sure

[@ntr7030]

I think Signature is an outstanding value if you like a really powdery, sweet/clean laundry smell. A baby powder vibe. Good office or dress up scent when you don’t want to stand out too much. Hugo Iced is a good do also, for hotter weather and the gym. Minty tea, with a cooling menthol effect.

[@gerardgeorge]

Both sound solid!

[@chrispaul9124]

The Abercrombie and Fitch extreme is a cheapie gem. I got so many compliments from wearing it. The Hugo Boss iced smells great but it doesn’t last long

[@gerardgeorge]

It is a good one. I’m wearing the OG today actually!

[@hewassuchaniceguy.7453]

I just picked up penguin rocks and it is an absolute steal bro. Lasts a good 6-7 hrs as well. Roll the dice. It's gold

[@gerardgeorge]

I’ve actually tried that one and really like it. Best in the penguin catalog in my opinion.

[@HansenSC]

What the heck?!! All my rack stores like Marshalls, TJ Maxx and Ross are in serious drought and they have very limited selections. I don't know what happened because they used to have so many selections but not anymore. Btw, Gerard....LET'S GO DUBS!!!!

[@gerardgeorge]

Celtics baby!!

[@HansenSC]

@@gerardgeorge Hahaha. It's turning out to be a great series.! I gotta represent the Bay Area.....LET'S GO!!!

[@ntr7030]

Go Dubs! Curry for 43!

[@Misskwu]

Just found commodity tea fragrance in my local Tjmaxx! Had to purchase it. It smells so lovely and sensual. I smell every single note.

[@gerardgeorge]

I’m glad you like it. It’s a really great scent.

[@staxreviews3802]

Wow bro man you have some great stuff up there great video our stores and not even looking like that down here. I need to try a video like this rack store maybe i will one day thank you for the content commodity sounds nice.

[@gerardgeorge]

Would love to see a rack store vid Stax! It can be hit or miss with the stores here.

[@scottd2910]

Intereted to find out the performance and longevity of the 212

[@gerardgeorge]

I will update!

[@turboshazed7370]

That sounds fantastic!!

[@gerardgeorge]

👍🏼

[@samyyyyyyy]

SIgnature by English Laundry is just okay - Cambridge Knight is pretty good - Box Version. -- Also I would totally watch an A&F First Instinct vs Extreme video!

[@gerardgeorge]

You got it!

[@joeycastellano]

burberry brit rhythm is amazing, smelled my friend wearing it and i had to know what it was. gucci guilty feel but more fresh and clean almost a juicy touch.

[@gerardgeorge]

This is one that I’ve wanted to try for awhile. Maybe never haul!

[@HurricaneEd]

Good finds. I see Jimmy Choo Man Ice occasionally, but I always pass on it. I even saw an Acqua Di Parma Mediterraneo gift set at a TJ Maxx yesterday. I was only looking for Missoni Wave, but no luck.

[@gerardgeorge]

I like Missoni wave. I passed on it because I own VPH and to me would be a bit redundant in the collection.

[@HurricaneEd]

@@gerardgeorge I saw a couple Missoni Waves yesterday, both were 3.4 oz for 60 dollars each. Price was more than I expected, so I passed.

[@gerardgeorge]

@@HurricaneEd I’ve seen them as low at 31.99 at the rack stores.

[@basman2006]

We got a lot more hugo boss in holland. They don't really have a fragrance i care about though except for the scent line.

[@gerardgeorge]

Funny I don’t own any boss fragrances but I know they are widely held in high regard.

[@gerardgeorge]

Haha I just realized I have Hugo Reversed and love it

[@M.G.R1an]

Haven’t tried the OG 212 Men but I have 212 Sexy and it’s a cool weather banger. Jimmy Choo Man Ice is solid and better than Dior Cologne imo.

[@gerardgeorge]

I gotta try sexy. Passed on it a couple times but have only heard great things.

[@gisaac46]

English Laundry Signature sorta smells like Le'Male but is softer more powdery.

[@gerardgeorge]

So not exactly like le male

[@danieldurand5721]

Excellent video! The commodity sounds nice. You should give the Jimmy Choo a couple of full wears. It is simple but nice. Not likely to offend also not the most memorable but it is pleasant.

[@gerardgeorge]

Thanks Daniel!

[@DeeDavinci]

Thank you about jimmy choo ice! I said the same! I gave mine away

[@gerardgeorge]

Same here!!!

[@houseadams4841]

Hugo Iced is decent… Similar to the JC Man Ice type scents… But more ginger, fresh spicy citrus as opposed to the lemonade type citrus. Solid for the price.

[@gerardgeorge]

Gotcha. Of the canteen style Hugo’s that I’ve tried, reversed is my favorite.

[@Bangpaulxu]

Keep these videos coming!!!!

[@gerardgeorge]

You know it!

[@tonypalacios]

Abby tried Hugo boss reversed, it’s a banger on my skin in the heat.

[@gerardgeorge]

Love it!!

[@tonypalacios]

Actually I meant to say have you tried, ha ha

I've found both vetiver and tea in the womans section

[@gerardgeorge]

Excellent! Do you have a favorite of the 2 of them?

LOL, if I saw you grabbing Choo Ice I would have knocked it out of your hands. It's good, but badly overpriced at the rack stores. You can get the 1.7 for $20 and the 3.3 for $30 online. The other Choos are overpriced as well.
