PARFUMS DE MARLY PERCIVAL VS SEDLEY | BATTLE OF THE BLUES

[@bembe1001]

I have Percival. It definitely lasted longer than 8 hours. My gf kept saying my scent overpowered hers for the entire day. We spent 12 hours on the road and it was still on my skin. I kept getting random compliments through the day.

[@pjmallery5379]

I just got 6 PDM decants I was very surprised how much I like Percival. For me it and Layton were my favorites of the bunch.

[@Arezkkuzu]

I know this video is old but I have to say, Percivals performance was absolutely monster grade when I used it yesterday. I sprayed a test strip and put it in my back pocket. The small amount on that little strip gave me a strong scent bubble from my back pocket for 3 hours, it was quite astonishing. It completely overpowered the 6 sprays of Profondo I had on my neck.

[@josehottie7602]

Where did you buy and when did you buy it?!

[@scentprofile]

I know this is a year later, but I'm just watching this now and I literally had to just decide between Sedley and Percival after smelling the decant. In the end Percival won and is on its way. Love your channel and I love the fact that every fragrance you like is right in line with my taste. Thank you.

[@robertlouisebaker-hyde1267]

I love both of them but if I were to choose one, it would be Percival. Percival has the edge over Sedley when it comes to performance and overall scent.

[@Jrtowns1]

I picked up a partial of Percival and it was a showstopper for me. Between Percival and Aventus Cologne I got a lot of compliments and I’m not one that gets complimented often.

For 'summer scents' Percival is a beast.

[@owainjones8741]

Sedley is minty fresh. Percival is shower gel fresh. Personal preference is sedley but like Percival too

Finally somebody in the comments showed Sedley some love!

[@thert2606]

I never understood the shower gel take. There’s so many shower gels which does it lean toward more?

[@josephisom7879]

I prefer Sedley and wife prefers Percival! Wearing mostly Sedley on these Hot Days, probably will wear Percival more in the Fall. Sedley has decent (6-8hrs) longevity on my skin and Percival has great longevity (8-10hrs).

[@moshe4630]

Percival lasts 12h +++ and still smells the same ❤❤ also its so legend smell

[@hocineted7594]

How is the projection ?

[@mikecapalungan]

I bought Percival like 2 weeks ago for my 19th birthday after smelling it back in the fall. The aromatic slight sweetness it has and spices makes it really suitable in the fall months as well. So far wearing it in the high summer heat, I love it a lot but not as much as I would wearing it in the fall because on my skin the spices come out more. This is the first ever niche scent that was love at first sniff for me and I’ve smelled a lot of niche fragrances that just didn’t impress me. Longevity for this one on my skin is around 8-10 hours, but if I spray it on my clothes as well it’s easily over 15+ hours. I get good projection for the first 3 1/2 to 4 hours and then it sits somewhat close to the skin, yet you can still smell whiffs of it throughout it’s wear. I do agree that I do go a bit nose blind to it by the time it’s near the end of its lifetime, but overall imo best blue type of scent I own that has everything I look for in a scent: spices, woods, florals with the lavender, freshness, etc. It’s way better than Sauvage for me.

I got somewhat of the opposite take on Sedly. Didn’t get any of the mint notes on top and definitely got the woodsy notes and patchouli on dry down. That said, I do like it quite a bit but the dry down smells very familiar. I have to check other fragrances I have. It my turn out I can get a similar dry down for much less $.

[@jeremyhence5863]

Percival has the edge. Great review my guy‼️

[@amitfromisrael5006]

helpful video, but my money went first to the superstar Layton...for this summer I went for the less expansive yet awesome Mancera Cedrat Boise...

[@amitfromisrael5006]

@Mr. E.W Layton is not for summer, but it is the best fragrance in my collection, it is an amazing Apple-Cardamon-Vanilla long lasting night out men's fragrance. it is a MUST. Mancera's CB is for summer spring (also night-out men's scent) but "leathery-cedarwood" while Aventus is more gentle and smoky, so CB is much longer lasting and way cheaper than Aventus but perhaps you can say Aventus is more "elegant Chypre" than CB. Anyway I am not going to pay the price of Aventus.

[@amitfromisrael5006]

@Mr. E.W Layton is OK to blind buy but NOT other PdM fragrances and also not Cedrat Boise, you can order samples easily from few websites in the US , I do that all the time...

[@ryanmurray6066]

I have the 2019 Sedley and it doesn't last. I either go nose blind or it fades by the 4th hour. I really like the way it smells though. I do not like Percival. There is a note in it I cannot stand.

[@rains3526]

Overalll I like Sedley more but I can admire that overall Percival lasts all year kind of scent , while Sedley is a type of scent that feels like it actually cools me down in the summer

[@JasubOjeda]

Personally, I have Percival and Dua's Legendary Knight. They are almost identical, but Dua is stronger. The PDM seems a little smoother, but the performance on the Knight is no joke. I have a sample of Layton, which I love. I just bought Dua's Royal Chariot Attar. If it is as good as PDM and lasts longer, then it'll be a no brainer for me to get the Dua instead of PDM. I usually will try both original and clones, but will go for the better juice. If an original is reformulated and killed, I'll get the better clone.

Hm.. with Percival i have the problem, that i nearly can´t smell it. It doesn´t matter how much i spray, my nose cant recognize the scent. Does somebody to have this problem?

@SKANDERBEG Yeah I own Herod and love it. I will say that Zara's new fragrance Warm Black smells like Herod and Burberry London. Its really solid

[@thetattooedguy1413]

SKANDERBEG I will definitely have to check that out. Burberry London does ok with my skin for some reason. I still say for the money Zara Warm Black is incredible. It’s definitely worth checking out if you can find it. I heard they was actually fighting over it in Europe lol 😂

I just wore Percival to work and had to pull a 19 hour day due to things going wrong. Could still pick up the test spray on my hand as I was crawling out the door. Obviously wasn’t projecting by then but he’s definitely going noseblind and I do too some days. This is the most beastly blue-freshy I’ve I ever owned and it’s not close.

Great video mate! 😎 Haven't tried Sedley but I really like Percival!

[@Jeff23Miami]

Percival is amazing, projects and last way longer, Sedley is sadly weak

[@cmanson69]

They didn't reformulate. It had longer to sit, mature and oxidise where they make it, making for a stronger scent. The only thing they did change for 2020 in the atomiser (it's now the same as the rest of the line).

[@SMOKETHATBUCK]

Reformulated Sir...

[@spinQubit]

I love Percival but I go noseblind to it within a couple hours. Quite sad.

[@Alexander_Tronstad]

Percival is special in that way - your best bet is to remjnd yourself that you go noseblind, but the fragrance does not really stop working. I can think it's weaksauce within an hour and that my skin must have just absorbed it, but the next moment somebody will comment that I overspray so it's hard to breathe in the same room, lol. I've learned to trust Percival from this - spray a couple of sprays, and that's it, just don't give in to the temptation to spray more after that. It also can help to not spray your arm. I think that going sniffing after it kind of accellerates the anosmia. Spraying it on your body somewhere and forgetting about it seems to make your nose stay a little more awake.

[@alexandrehomobono7296]

Do you think it is better to invest in a niche signature (Aventus, Percival, Elysium, etc...) than buying a designer fragrance rotation?? Around 4/5 designer scents

[@ChaosFragrances]

Depends on your current collection imo. If just starting out, go for designers first. After you have some built up then start playing with niche

[@2quick524]

Depends on how much money you have too. If you wear fragrances everyday, I'd go with 3-5 designers that one niche. That niche will run out quick and you'll have to buy another bottle. I usually wear my designers on a daily basis and wear aventus, Git, elysium, bleeker street, and Percival on special occasions.
