“Better to be discovered than announced”. Man what a quote that can be applied to all walks of life. But speaking specifically about colognes, I agree 100%.

I would like to take credit for it but it wasn't my statement but it's one I wholeheartedly agree with. Like you said it applies to a great many things

I am fortunate enough to buy pure havane when it was still cheap on discounters (50ish), but since it is getting close to 400 a bottle nowadays, I decided to try and bought this clone for like 25 bucks and use it while saving the real one if it is any good. Once I got this bottle, I took side by side test against the real one. This one is bit more dry and smokier (more tobacco ash-like smelling than pure havane), so if you don't like sweeter scent, this will fit better for you. However, the dry down of Pure havane is just gold for me. It has fuller richer bodied indulging cacao/pachouli chocolately sweet smell. But then I don't think I would pay over 300 for pure havane either. LOL. This is great scent for ~25 dollars. To me, this is about 80~85% close to Pure havane. On other note, If I had a budget, I would like to buy Tom Ford's Tobacco Oud, it's a discontinued bottle still available at some discounters for about 200 dollars for 50ml bottle. I know its very expensive like niche brand, but it will only get more expensive as time goes on as its discontinued.

Insurrection II Wild, is a nice dupe of Pure Haven. However, Insurrection II Wild wears thin and doesn't have the richness and complexity of Pure Haven. While some may be able to smell Insurrection II Wild on your skin after 6+ hours. The projection and performance is truly non-existent or mediocre at best. Insurrection II Wild, is actually better suited for summer/spring wearing due to how thin and soft the fragrance is. DO NOT pay more than $25.00USD for Insurrection II Wild! Insurrection II Wild, is certainly worth buying for the right price and if you have the correct understanding and expectations of the fragrance. 💯

I only paid 21 bucks for that through Amazon I've never smelled the pure van so I don't know about a comparison for that but I've gotten 9 hours out of this. A lot of cologne longevity really has to do with skin chemistry. I recently discovered that some colognes that I was wearing in my collection that people said lasted a long time never lasted a long time for me. Then I got to researching dry skin and there's a couple of little tests you can do to find out if your skin is overly dry. Turns out mine was. I added some basic lubriderm to my shower routine and these same colognes that weren't either performing or projecting improved. Not a stellar improvement but definitely a noticeable improvement. I like the insurrection too wild and it does smell like it's not as well put together as some more expensive ones but like I said I don't have a comparison. Thank you for your comment and for watching my video.
