Keep Only One Fragrance For Life For Each Occasion | Men's Cologne/Perfume Review 2024

[@salvadordal1n]

We need a "I bought every single Montale fragrance, so you don't have to" video for sure.

[@davids2629]

Nah initio man

[@wojciechtomaszewski8594]

Not only there are too many montales i don't think they are that Interesting

[@quaversal6997]

@@wojciechtomaszewski8594 you HAVE to smell montale's dark vanilla. Even after wearing a plethora of niche fragrances (MFK's Grand Soir, Oud satin mood, alexandria II and more), it has remained my most complicated fragrance. The performance is beast-mode and the vanillic scent profile is gorgeous! I'm considering grabbing another bottle for the future haha

[@oliverriezebos]

@@davids2629 initio is soliddd

[@FRD-HDD]

Montale and Mancera are such vulgar brands. They don't even deserve a review.

[@MuddyGreenMonster]

Totally agree about Amore Caffe. Delicious soft & airy vanilla ice cream, then soaked in rich coffe topped with almonds. One of Mancera's best.

[@AadiJain-kg7ow]

my 5 for each occasion would be: Versatile - LNDL Blu electrique Date Night - YSL Tuxedo Office - Chanel Platinum Egoiste Warm weather - Xerjoff renaissance Clubbing - ATH Hard candy Gourmand - Kilian Angel's share Leather - Prada L'homme Intense Oud - TF Tobacco oud

[@_j_i_jordan5691]

Just purchased Alexandria II, it is worth the hype! It smells like nothing I’ve ever smelled before, real Oud has this rich complexity that is nothing like the replications. Also we really need a Xerjoff buying guide, maybe next big video?

[@zairiph6361]

how much did you pay, and buy it at? got the sample, and I'm looking to buy rn, need help though ofc :) and how's the longevity for you?

[@James-xm3ex]

Zair monitor Facebook groups if you’re comfortable. And Alexandria II is a notoriously beast mode fragrance so nobody should use performance issues with it

[@_j_i_jordan5691]

@@zairiph6361 Late response, I'm sorry. But i got it off a local perfume shop that sold it to me for about 380. For Me I have skin that absorbs fragracnes but It projects incredibiy and since its 79% fragrance oils I get around 16-20 hours of logevity. I literally Showered and it stayed on me

Hey, Omar Ive got an idea for a video. U take 3 different age groups: teenagers, plumbers and 50+ for example. Make a list for each of them (3 fragrances) in these occasions: 1. school/university 2. going out fragrance 3. every day scent On 3 different categories: cheapies, designer fragrances and niche. Total for all 3 groups is gonna be 27 fragrances. Hope u got my idea right

[@benjamingarcinuno6475]

nice editing, always getting better

[@amjad.k4069]

great video! love the concept and the way you describe a fragrance is on point. would love to see a 2nd part where you choose your 2nd favorite for each category

[@ericgeneric135]

I really need to check out Alexandria II soon.

[@kennyromeronyc]

You WON'T regret it!!!

[@edgardozara97]

Burlington 1819 is indeed light yet long lasting. Its still more Grapefruit to my nose than oranges but whatever citrus note that is, it smells so smooth and good. Together with that citrus is a cumin thats supported by notes that just enhance the smell and performance of this masterpiece

[@Pinzone_]

Still waiting for the Memoirs of a perfume collector buying guide, mate

[@simualjohnson5845]

The oud category would be a hard one for me. I really love Gucci Intense Oud and Aoud Exclusif by Mancera. Also I haven’t really found a fresh/blue fragrance I really love. It’s my least favorite category. Kenzo Homme edp is probably my most enjoyed atm.

[@hyperarts4087]

Can you do a take on Dark fragrances? Something dark but can go with different categories like maybe a daily scent, dates, outing, and so on.

[@MaxMiller614]

Love your vids bro. Gotta go with Ombré leather for my leather fragrance. Ombré leather is perfection.

[@kainoacachia2131]

My 8 are: Versatile: Bleu de Chanel EDP Professional: Tom Ford Grey Vetiver Date/romantic: Atrium Mr. Romantic Vacation summer: Tom Ford Mandarino di Amalfi(sad about price and performance though 🥲) Casual summer: Versace Man Eau Fraiche Head-turner: Byredo Sellier extrait de parfum Casual evening: Tom Ford Oud Wood (for now, quality seems to be diminishing 😕) Artistic: to be determined 😳

[@TxmmyBeats]

Would you recommend wearing Alexandria 2 to a restaurant or is it too powerful for that occasion?

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

[@flacko92]

I wanna try alexandria II so badly

[@thebizness5596]

It’s a beautiful fragrance. I got a sample now I want the full bottle.

[@kennyromeronyc]

It is a MASTERPIECE in Perfumery. I bought the 50ml blind because I saw the notes and figured I would enjoy it (it was also my very 1st Oud fragrance) and once I smelled it, all I can say is OMG. I was immediately IN LOVE with the fragrance and knew I would need the 100ml as well. I found a tester a few months later for over 60% off retail. Try it and I promise you won't regret it. It is everything that Omar says and SO MUCH MORE. This, along with my Dior Parfum are the Gems of my Collection.

[@khunjeau8393]

8 for life: Versatile: Percival Date: Naxos Office: Timbuktu Warm weather: AH edition Blanche Attention grabbing: salle prive x skins Formal occasion: creed royal oud Gourmand:L’Homme ideal parfum Leather: Ombré Leather

[@oliverriezebos]

My top 8 would look way different, since I like wearing unique or “statement” fragrances everyday, and I don’t need an office scent. But I can say that my fav - Warm weather fragrance is Matiere Premiere Crystal Saffron, currently sampling Burlington 1819 - Date fragrance is Kilian Straight to Heaven - Gourmand is either Mancera Amore Cafe, Mancera Tonka Cola, Montale Ristretto Intense Cafe or Kilian Angels’ Share (lol) - Oud fragrance is Aqua di Parma Oud & Spice Edit: after trying Crystal saffron another few times, the drydown is too medicinal for me. Also, I own a full bottle of Burlington 1819 now

[@SchoolOfScent]

Nice list friend! Intrigued by your warm weather choice

[@oliverriezebos]

@@SchoolOfScentafter trying Crystal Saffron another few times, my love for the fragrance is not there anymore, the drydown is very medicinal imo

[@Gajsu1]

*Wedding* - LV Imagination (summer), Amouage Jubilation XXV (autumn/winter) *Professional/important business meetings* - MAB Ganymede *Partying*- JPG Ultra Male *Casual daytime summertime* - Allure Homme Sport Cologne *Casual daytime winter* - V&R Spicebomb Extreme *Office* - CDNI Limited Edition or the daytime ones *Dating* - Probably JPG le male le parfum or elixir, UM is good too. In the past I'd say D&G The One EDP but it's very weak and kind of shower gel vibe, maybe it's too simple.

[@smthreet21]

Amore cafe has such an insanely wonderful dry down. I was a little afraid by the opening it’d be too sweet but with time it gets better and better

[@rubbenn91]

Hi Omar, I hope that you can have the same video in the cheaper side, somewhere in the middle. Thanks

[@Penterror]

I Imported amore caffe from the EU, it kinda has a play dough smell in the background but it's still amazing. It smells like a caramel ice cream I eat

[@alexandergurdebeke1214]

Hi Omar, I am really interested on your take on the Louis Vuitton line. Imagination, l’immensité, afternoon swim, etc are getting quite some hype. Thanks!

[@kainoacachia2131]

Agreed!!

[@JohnnyFx83]

Interesting list, I will definitely sample the ones I haven't smelled yet.

[@disintegrate1077]

Love the Azzaro line, in my opinion Azzaro the most wanted Parfum is even better than the EDP! What made you choose the EDP over the Parfum?

[@longzie1]

My summer fragrance will have to be Ormande Jayne Montabaco Verano!

Well, my brain is getting more and more matured. I have changed my life selection recently and I am quite satisfied I can choose 10 for life without any big problem. xD Also, I think that Iris starts speaking more to my soul actually. It suits my personality. I like its qualities more and more. Barbershop perfumery will always be my style too.

[@nefarious_saint]

Sampled Burlington 1819 and it’s basically the same as Jo Malone grapefruit. I was shocked at the similarities. Yes it lasts a bit longer but it’s the same. Not a fan of either. But if you have to get it, Jo Malone is like 3x cheaper than Rojas. Definitely don’t believe the hype. Sample, sample, people!!

[@xcrack]

to recommend Fahrenheit in 2024??

I still recommend it. (If you’re referring to the EDT)

[@adityaabntg]

hey i wanted to ask, is it redundant to have azzaro the most wanted edp intense if i have stronger with you absolutely?

[@SchoolOfScent]

I think so, unless you love the DNA so much and don’t mind getting a slight variation on it

[@TheMadKollektah]

Alexandria II is INCREDIBLE. I had a 2ml decant for a little over half a year. I never pulled the trigger on a bottle because it's just too expensive. Just 2 weeks ago i saw a listing of an Alexandria II dupe on eBay called Anatolia. It's by a German brand called Success Pur Parfums. After a little back and forth i decided to pull the trigger. Let me tell you, i paid 70€ shipped for my 100ml Beastmode bottle and that fragrance smelled identical to the original. I compared both back and forth during the day i got the dupe and i could not detect a major difference except for the opening maybe. In the drydown though, exact 1:1 recreation. Performance wise it outdid the OG also. My mind was blown 🤯
