My BEST Rack Store Finds In 2024...So Far!

[@user-ex4pe7ly8i]

I enjoy rack store videos. Thanks for sharing your experiences

[@gerardgeorge]

My pleasure Tristan 🙏🏼

[@lukehamilton2792]

Great content as always Gerard. I think it would be really interesting to see how you would tackle a video like “how I’d spend x amount as a beginner” (usually $250-500) curious to see how you’d restart a collection on a budget

[@gerardgeorge]

Yes!!! I will do this.

[@stratelite1337]

If you want to avoid clones these are roughly

[@Popsarocker1]

I’ve gotten a bunch at Burlington, but off the top of my head. The Ferragamo’s have been my favorite so far. Essenziale Blue, Ferragamo, black and Subtil.

[@gerardgeorge]

Those are all legit.

[@TheSundevil09]

I like this way of doing the video. Very non traditional. Good job!!!

[@gerardgeorge]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@JohnnyFx83]

Awesome video. Huge fan of your content.

[@gerardgeorge]

Thank you my friend appreciate it 🙏🏼

[@vanceneal1701]

Good video! I have bright leather 30 ml, haven't worn much but good,will get fakhar black when comes in stock at TJ Maxx, Marshalls.

[@gerardgeorge]

Both great choices Vance!

[@jqgolfer]

great find on the PdM, one my all time faves. after watching your finds videos . i have picked up bright leather, and my first 2 Latffa, and finally found Bentley intense. Thanks

[@gerardgeorge]

Happy to hear it Julio!

[@mangegnosis]

Thank you for the vid, Gerard. Enjoy the weekend with your family. Best.

[@gerardgeorge]

Thanks Mang! Lemonade stand today. Have a good weekend.

[@ZEROGRAVITY80]

My Burlington has Mercedes Benz Bright. I haven't picked it up yet but I'm thinking about it.

[@MrMakaveli1984]

if u go to jcpenny store cologne section there is a display displays of all the mercedez .. the blue one is the best but cant find it at racks stores yet .. i got the bright its ok .. not bad for 26 dollars

[@gerardgeorge]

I haven’t seen that one yet.

[@nickbaker7014]

Spicebomb edt is great. Can be worn in spring and cool summer evenings. Even did 3 the sprays for the cinema yesterday evening

[@johnmiett6032]

I haven't found much on the South Shore. I got Vibrant Summer today, I'm loving it, 💯% beach vibes!

[@gerardgeorge]

Good one!

[@Kingfisher1215]

Found Banana Republic Tobacco and Tonka and Cherry and Amber for 19.99 each at Burlington. Great buys.

[@gerardgeorge]

BR has some great scents for the money.

[@beesmile8392]

Great finds! I picked up the Bentley For Men Intense at Burlington too, love it...but I'll have to wait for fall/winter to really wear it. I've had some pretty good luck at the rack stores in '24, including Montblanc Starwalker Extreme (red-tagged to $16) Polo Earth 100mL (reg-tagged to $20) and my latest pick up, Zara Majestic Green ($12.99)

[@gerardgeorge]

Great finds! I’m looking forward to the cooler weather as well.

[@dr3amersl0unge21]

It's friday !! 🎉 hope you had a good week Gerard, have a good week-end brother ,awsome video as usual !! 👊🏽🫡

[@gerardgeorge]

Thanks my man appreciate you! Enjoy your weekend as well.

[@jayevans2914]

Love that ultrazest up in the corner. I have the og, pure havane, ultimate, and two of the clones (ultrared and starman). Not necessarily a fan of the clones, but love the muglers. Ross stores is a hidden gem safari.

[@gerardgeorge]

So good! I want to add the OG myself eventually.

[@greggraham9785]

Great job as usual Gerard, Awesome list and video. Love the Bentley Man Intense smells great in the air. Stay safe brother SOTD LATTAFA OPULENT OUD

[@gerardgeorge]

Great video brother! Stay strong 🎉🎊

[@gerardgeorge]

Thanks Gabe!

[@Kyleforthe3SIKE]

My Burlington had 8 dark cherry and amber and 12 tobacco and tonka bean today. Great restock. Picked up lataffa blue oud

[@Popsarocker1]

I passed on that one. Let us know how it is.

[@gerardgeorge]

Yea these have been popping back up. That’s good news.

[@Kyleforthe3SIKE]

@@Popsarocker1 really nice for $20. lasted ~8 hours. opening was rough, very pleasant drydown

[@pamelabrown8467]

Thanks for sharing 🤩

[@gerardgeorge]

My pleasure Pamela!

[@Pdubb84]

I just found Acqua Di Gio Parfum 2023 for $79. I had to get it! It's refillable but i don't know where I can even do that anymore. Also Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud at Burlington for $20

[@vincentolivarez7307]

Goated 🔥. How is it smell wise vs the eau de parfum or profumo? I've seen it at ross but don't know if worth it since I have those already

[@DA-db9bi]

They were selling that at my local Ross and Burlington

[@beaver6d9]

I saw an edp at Ross just recently. Not absolute steal, but close enough to not feel bad about the b&m tax.

[@gerardgeorge]

Excellent!! Where was the ADG?

[@letmetellyouwhatsup]

Spicebomb is amazing. It dries down to snickerdoodle scent. My coworker told me I smlled like Christmas lol. I also love the bottle so much. It's one of the most unique bottles I've ever owned. FYI, it still says Bright Leather Ferragamo in the lower left corner where you were reviewing the PDM Pegasus.

[@gerardgeorge]

Ahh good catch thanks! I agree though a lot of people get Christmas vibes.

[@McCarthyRay]

Some really great finds! I got lucky and just found the Bentley Intense and the Ferragamo Bright Leather. I would love to find the spicebomb though.

[@gerardgeorge]

2 outta 3 ain’t bad Ray!

[@McCarthyRay]

@@gerardgeorge true! Not that it’s going to be in rack stores, but I’m starting to hear some buzz surrounding Spicebomb Dark Leather. I hope it’s as good as it sounds.

[@Alritealritealrite]

Yeah, I got the original spice bomb and it smells like pepper at first.😂 It gets pretty good though, after a few minutes for me.

[@gerardgeorge]

Definitely gets good!

[@channel_1443]

Found AD Porfundo at Ross a few months back

[@gerardgeorge]

Nice find

[@Loucid.]

I had a feeling that unicorn PDM find was gonna be #1....however, something tells me Iron Man EDT didn't make the list because you haven't pulled the trigger on it yet. 😂

[@gerardgeorge]

I’m gonna grab it eventually!

[@jackiemoon7559]

Fakhar is fantastic!!!

[@gerardgeorge]

Sure is Jackie!

[@adog86186]

OG's are always better than flankers, or almost. Still wild about the pdm find!!

[@gerardgeorge]

I tend to agree.

[@memojdm1355]

Have you tried anything from the house of Michael Malul? I’ve had 511 black tie and citizen jack absolute for a while now and their great fragrances for the money. Black tie has gotten me plenty of compliments and they last about 10+ hrs

[@gerardgeorge]

I can’t remember the name of it but I tried their GIT inspired scent it was pretty good.

[@MrHutto1]

I haven't hardly found jack this year.

[@gerardgeorge]

Sorry brotha

[@houseadams4841]

Did you see that The One edt “Made in Italy” ?? Assume it’s a new formulation of the edt ?? If so, it probably smells almost like the most recent formulation…. Curious but I have a bottle of edt and EDP already….

[@gerardgeorge]

I didn’t notice! I’ll keep an eye out.

[@Pdubb84]

I've picked up Mirada Surf Pour Homme,Camara Viso Victory, Together With You Oud Leather by FragranceWorld, Tommy Hilfiger Vibrant Summer, Ck One Shock. All bangers got some others too but some not so good. Perry Ellis 360 red is probably the worst I've gotten it has to be a reformulation it smells like potpourri🤢

[@gerardgeorge]

Bangers!

[@empirelight5477]

Have you tried Bentley Absolute? It smells like Bentley Intense mixed with Gucci Pour Homme.

[@gerardgeorge]

No but I’ve wanted to for some time.

[@GrimG81]

They don't ever have anything this good at any of my rack stores. Best thing i have found is mont blanc starwalker. How much was that Pegasus?

[@Alritealritealrite]

I'm thinking about ordering that 1. I've never smelled it, but it sounds nice.

[@GrimG81]

@@Alritealritealrite the starwalker?

[@DA-db9bi]

The best I’ve found was Acqua di Gio parfum, after that maybe starwalker extreme🤣 so they don’t sell good stuff here either.

[@Alritealritealrite]

@@GrimG81 yea. I have Individual and almost ordered Starwalker a few times. Do you think it's still worth getting?

[@GrimG81]

@Alritealritealrite I guess it kinda depends on your budget. I think I only paid 20 maybe 25 max but I blind buy bottles that are up to $220 so in my opinion it's a safe blind buy but if you're working with a limited budget maybe not. I never wear it out because I prefer my more expensive niche compliment monsters. I did just spray it in the air though to give you an honest answer and it's definitely a pleasant scent. It could be a nice gym scent. For me it's soothing and i do like the bamboo note. I don't regret it and if i ever run through mine i will buy another bottle. Hopefully this helps.

[@tonypedicelli1545]

I bought John varvatos artisan xx it smells like a church you owe me 50 dollars

[@gerardgeorge]

Hahaha you must be new to frags. What you are smelling is Vetiver.

[@tonypedicelli1545]

@@gerardgeorge let's swamp my varvatos for your mercedes men bright its a 125 ml
