May I say, Zara’s Red Temptation is a better alternative to the 540. Cloud tends to settle into a vanilla.

[@franzizs8537]

Agreed!

[@TeddyBear-dk7tk]

[@olenachemis7579]

there is one more alternative to BACCARA - ANNA SUI - FANTASIA MERMAID, rediculousely cheap (at Kruidvat (shop chain) in Belgium - 10.99 for 75 ML) it is long lasting and noticible .

[@bkameka69]

I have to agree. My fiancé bought the Zara version and both of us are extremely impressed by how close it is to the original.

4711 Acqua Colonia Blood Orange & Basil is a reasonably close dupe for Guerlain's Mandarin Basilic, but the 4711 version tends to run between $30 and $40. I own both and enjoy both. 🦋🧡🦋

I bought Le Bain aftervwatching this review 🙂. I got it online for 12€. I bought Cuir de Nuit as soon as you uploaded the video about that perfume. Thank you ❤ Better dupe for Baccarat Rouge is Lattafa "Ana Abiyedh Rouge" compared to Cloud, imo.

[@marinelab]

I have recently given a chance to Fragonard's perfumes while visiting Grasse. I used to not really care for their stuffs while living in Paris in the past. I was really happily surprised by a few of them especially the Perfume concentration alternative vs the EDP. For exemple "Heliotrope Gingembre" reminds me a lot of "Remember me" from Jovoy, (maybe less complex but it definitely has this ginger bread quality.) I also loved "Mon lys" and "Mon Immortelle" very French niche IMO.

[@Veronica-iu7wv]

thanks for the vid Sebastian! some twins i've discovered so far are L’Ombre Dans L’Eau Diptyque (around 120$) vs Synthetic Jungle Frederic Malle (230$ for 100ml in europe), and also Bois d'Inoki Masaki Matsushima (50$) vs jo malone Fig & Lotus Flower (125$) - despite a slightly different start, in less than 10mins they smell dangerously alike. also kinda same vibe is shared in memo paris tiger's nest (210$) vs mancera sand aoud (60$), altho memo feels much more complicated

[@tmmears]

I hadn’t heard Joop! since the 90s. I was immediately flooded with memories of oddball boyfriends, parties with techno music, writing letters, and babydoll dresses

[@almatoledo1608]

Buenos dias a todos. Yes, do more like this Sebastián! 👏 I have Shaghaf Aoud and I adore it!

[@HansenSC]

Le Labo Bergamote 22 is my go to summer fragrance and yes, it is quite pricey. I find Nishane Colognise to be very similar to B22 that's about 1/3 of the price. I'd be interested to see if others feel the same way as I do. Great video, Sebastian!

[@ReadingRights]

Prince Sebastian .. the best who talked about fragrances ever in youtube 👍🏼

[@xenia3998]

Hi Sebastian..great reviews! Regarding L erbolario, the brand can be found on drugstores mainly, especially here in Greece, perfumes cost about 20 to 25 euros..and if I recall correctly most drugstores in Greece send in USA in case of interest.

[@chrismahfouz7709]

Cloud--You can remove the bottle from the tacky cloud and it’s a 100% improvement! The bottle once removed looks pretty good. Cloud is strong -beast mode- and lasts easily 10-12 hours on my skin.

[@tmmears]

aw! I like the tacky clouds!

[@pamandrzejak1143]

And the cloud smells horrible. Cheap plastic.

We have so many Yves Rocher stores here in Morocco and all of them still carry cuir de nuit and they're having a 50% off sale right now so I'm definitey getting it asap!

[@TheMothernerd]

Givenchy PI edt is a pretty bang on alternative to PDM Pegasus, Encre Noir is a cheaper alternative to Roja Vetiver, ELDO You or Someone Like You is a slightly cheaper alternative to Veronique Gabai's Vert Desir.

[@bySterling]

1- van cleef and arpels moonlight patchouli in place of Gris Dior 2- van cleef and arpels bois d'iris instead of Dior bois d'argent 3- Chopard nuit des rois (which can be found online for much less than in stores) instead of Mizensir perfect oud 4- Natural by the woods collection - Dusk instead of PDM Layton. I also heard that Al Haramain released a perfume that was extremely close to MFK BR540 that they got sued and had to withdraw it off the market.

[@arymhansie]

Thanks for this

[@zeljaanaaa]

Bois d’Iris is softer and more feminine than Bois d’Argent, but the same DNA, yes.

[@m00nchxld8]

You mean amber oud rouge edition? It is very similar to BR540 and also Manège Rouge

Woody Intense by Arabian Oud smells VERY similar to Portrait of a Lady to me , it's a Taif Rose scent predominantly, little less spicy and complex though

[@Nelufare80]

Hi sebastian since i am living in germany i was intrigued by trying out rosenrot by rammstein(pronounced rammstine). Thx so much for sharing this Tip because honestly it is one of the best and less expensive roseperfumes!!!also i am shocked because i dont like their music since it is heavy metal but the perfume couldnt be more far away from the expectations that you have from a heavymetallband.

[@mariham8288]

Great video !!

[@vycki1403]

Thank you for the tip! As it turns out, in Canada, Yves Rocher has a ton of sales online. I’ve bought the Cuir De Nuit based on your recommendation for $42 CAD ($30 USD) I cannot wait to try it!!

[@storkonstage]

Yeah! Joop! Le Bain. What a wonderful soapy vanilla. So elegant and so affordable. I payed 18 Euro's for a 75 ml bottle. Another alternative for Guerlain Spiriteuse Double Vanille is Eau de Missions. I actually think that one is a smokey boozy vanilla masterpiece. It's discontinued but still available for around 25 Euro's for 100 ml. Greetz from Holland 🌷!

[@franceshanna3724]

Are you saying that Joop! Le Bain is an alternative to Guerlain Spiriteuse Double Vanille? I have always wanted to try the Guerlain fragrance and have Joop! Le Bain already. Would you say they compare? I have heard that Vanille 28 is somewhat similar too.

[@marisolalonso4054]

Fleur Narcotique vibes definatly could be found in Anna Sui Mermaid, perfect for summer when FN can be a bit soffocative

[@brigittelehmann9749]

Great review and perfums greetings from the Netherlands

[@AliceBrazilLlamas]

Subscribed! 💜

[@dawnetc.6721]

I have an alternative for Tiziana Terenzi 's Kir'ke. Catherine Malandrino Luxe de Venise eau de Parfum. $90.0 for 100ml. This scent has a very impressive note structure list. It seemed as if they did want to put their best foot forward, and create a really lovely fragrance.

[@jesperhof]

Nice list! Another option for this list: Tiziana Terenzi Ursa for Kilian Straight to Heaven. Now about the L’Erbolario shops. Last year I went to Firenze (Florence) for a vacation. There is a L’Erbolario shop in het centre of the city. Right in between the cathedral and basilica. The address is: Via del Corso 23r. Beautiful city en place for a holiday. Have fun!

[@ParanormAlactiviti]

Can't belive you filmed this video, but thank you it's very helpful. I accually buy cheaper alternatives to test if buying more expensive parfume would be worth it for me. I know you can buy like 2 ml testers of expensive parfumes but I hate those small overpriced plasticy bottles.

[@almatoledo1608]

I do the same! But with some of the Inspiration Houses, I end up not even buying the original because I like the inspired well enough!

[@marygracerodriguez2285]

Does Meharees smells like Peau de Pierre? Thanks Sebastian for this video!!

[@aprilann6011]

There is a new perfume house called "Maison Alhambra" that sale a dupe of the original Perfume De Marly "Delina" called "Delilah". It's a cheapy at around $38‐$40 . The name, fragrance, and packaging is eerily similar to Delina, no joke. I've just ordered it and I have the original "Delina" myself. If this is a spot on dupe for what I have then I will only bring out my Delina on special occasions. UPDATE: I've received the dupe called "Delilah" by Maison Alhambra whom created the exact replica of Perfume De Marly "Delina" it is spot on 98% the same, I can't hardly tell the difference. I let my husband smelled it and he said it smells exactly the same but Delina is much louder than Delilah lol. I told him that I only sprayed a tiny bit because I didn't know what the potency of Delilah so she didn't get a fair shot. So I sprayed Delilah fully and gave her another try and my husband said, Delina is definitely in Delilah, but Delina carries a bit more creamier smell. So my husband gave "Delilah " 97% (A) on her smell. I will have to test the longevity out on Delilah tonight to let you all know if she can outlast my Delina for 12 hours or not on my skin and clothes. I will report back to you all on my findings.

In the north of Italy l’Erbolario is sold in stores called Erboristeria and in places like Biosapori which is like Whole Food Market, selling organic foods and natural products.

Hi Sebastian! I just received my Yves Rocher order of Cuir de Nuit and it is fantastic!!!! Never smelled the Guerlain SDV but it's ok as I am already so pleased with the CdN and am saving so much $$$$ (for other future fragrance buys lol). I am aware of the brand now because of you and already have / enjoy Nouveau Genre, Tropical Tentacion and Voile d'Ocre. I caught the 50% sale off the YR US website and bought all of them at such a steep discount. Awesome scents, great value!!!

Zara red temptation is exact dupe of bacarat rouge. Red temptation lasts 8hrs plus on me so the longevity is impressive as well as the scent. It’s £19.99 in UK.

I got my daughter Cloud as she liked BR540 in the store and I chuckled when she pouted that I wasn’t getting it for her. Now I sneak into her room while she sleeps to spritz myself before work. 🤷🏻‍♀️ And I totally agree with Cloud being the ugliest bottle, kid themed and cumbersome one I’ve ever seen!

[@franzizs8537]

Just get red temptation or manegue rouge … that way you don’t steal lol

[@Karmifive]

I just pop off the cloud

[@ev_genia_karica]

[@tblub.9270]

Genre Parfums has a beautiful take on Ganymead called Seau Elektric.

[@feliciagittens6911]

Best alternatives: 2. For Lancome Oud - Shagaf Oud. On me the performance is outrageous far more than Cloud. 6. For Baccarat Rouge - Sensual Instinct by Montale as well as Amber Oud Rouge by Al Haramain (even better). 8. Portrait of a Lady - Porpora by Tiziana Terenzi.

[@nanekatharina3911]

For BR540 try Red Temptation from Zara, and Rose Gourmand from Zara as a dupe for Montale - Intense Cafe / Mancera - Roses Vanille (to me it smells more like Roses Vanille) :) and they're like 20$ each for 80 ml

[@210noragmailcom]

Sensual instinct smells nothing like Baccarat but I agree with the Al Haramain. They also have a sweeter/fruitier version of Baccarat, Manege Rouge - doesn’t smell overly sweet and cheap like cloud

Hi! I'm from Croatia and here we have L'erbolario's parfums and stuff in farmacy and DM's stores. So,you can try to find it there while you're in Italy

[@user-ei6fn7qr4d]

There is shops of "L'Erbolario" around Italy so you can probably easily find them in their shops. They are not focused on fragrances but its more of an herboristery(idk how to say it in english) so they sell many plants and herb based things too. The central shop is in Lodi (like 30 minutes away feom Milano) but u can easily find shops in Milano too. Speaking about perfumes you can find in Firenze...you should check out the "Farmacia del cinghiale" they have few fragrances with a very retrò packaging and some are said to be quite nice (the price is very low too.]

[@agathasteacoffeehaus1038]

Try the cloud intense. I find it better. But still love the lightness of cloud EDP.

[@regismonkton]

I've never tried Guerlain "Spiriteuse Double Vanille" but I've heard that Mercedes-Benz "Club Black" is similar to it. I own M.-B. "Club Black" and I like it. M.-B. has other inexpensive alternatives to other fragrances, e.g. M.-B. "Intense for Men" is an alternative to Dior's "Fahrenheit". I own and enjoy Rochas "Moustache EDP" which is considered as an alternative to YSL "Tuxedo".

[@JasubOjeda]

I have both Guerlain and Mercedes. They do have a familiar feel, but Guerlain is quite a bit more smoky and has a stronger vanilla smell. Club Black smells a little sweeter and smells lighter with some cinnamon. So, you could substitute, but they are different. The Guerlain definitely smells richer to me, but both are awesome.

Sebastian best alternative to FDM Portrait of a Lady is Porpora

I would most definately disagree with this statement. Porpora smells obnoxiously loud and synthetic. It lacks depth and refinement. To my nose it smells nothing like POAL and the price is on a similar level. Just go with POAL.

Yes L’erbolario has perfume called Fiore dell’onda which is alternative to Rem by house Reminescence which is also alternative of more expensive Aqua Motu by Comptoir sud Pacifique. But all 3 of those fragrances are aquatic which is not into your vibes. Another alternative to Baccarat is Sunset Riot by All Saints which is way better of AG cloud and their bottle is chic

Red Potion by Merchants of Venice is a great Baccarat Rouge 540 alternative

I've tried multiple BR alternatives, the best, with almost 99% of similarities was Sweven from the house of Oakcha

Ambre Narguile Hermès - Affordable replacement is Ambre D'Alexandrie Boucheron

[@galinakovaleva7862]

IMO even muuuch better!

I found L'Erbolario in a farmacy named Dr. Max. It is a farmacy that sells cool cosmetics.

You find Erbolario in Italian health shops ... think of shops like Holland and Barrett in the UK ...Try Erbolario Periplo ... , very vetiver ...

Hi! I’m looking for a perfume alternative for TFK’s “Velvet Aura”. They’ve discontinued it and I would be very grateful for a pointer in the right direction! Thank you!
