Tabac is really good it’s great how inexpensive it is too

[@WaldoAgave]

I've been looking at tabac for a while. Must try now. I have some unusual ones I got at an estate sale recently. Jordache Musk is one of them and is so good

[@diogeneslantern18]

@@WaldoAgave think of it as a men's version of Chanel No. 5 - they share many accords. It's a beautiful floral powdery scent without being feminine.

[@alexanders180]

I love fougeres, even though i rarely wear them due to the cold weather here in Norway. However in the summer, or in the weekends after a nice shave NOTHING is better than a couple of sprays of a nice fougere scent. I am 26, so i have not rocked a whole lot. But my favorites are Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza and Chanel Platinum Egoïste, those two scents just make me feel fresh, clean, elegant and masculine. Great video!

[@stockpicker1966]

Wonderful and nostalgic list... The funny thing is that due to my childhood memories of Greek barbershop fragrances, they were related more to the note of neroli. Ferrari bright neroli brings those memories back. My current favorite aromatic fougere is Beau de jour by Tom Ford . It's a masterpiece of modern perfumery. Stay safe, greetings🇬🇷!

[@bluntlung420]

Magnificent list my dude, my clear favorite is Drakkar Noir. The current formula is my favorite fragrance, period. To me the current formulation conjures up images of sitting in a super leathery smelling barber chair at an old school barbershop with the smell of the shaving soap on your beard.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

davey0420 _ that’s a great description, it takes that smooth shave foam / deodorant scent up a notch and tones down the green where as the vintage is the opposite so i I love both versions but the current one is amazing and I enjoy it a lot regardless of reformulation

[@richardaubrey382]

Great job .. I could definitely sit through many more volumes of this ! Just bought Tabac EDT can’t wait to start wearing it. Apparently it was the Beatles favorite frag in their early days.

Richard Aubrey I’ve been enjoying the vintage Drakkar a ton! Been wearing it all week lol

[@agriperma]

My Father favorite was Canoe, I remember him always asking the store clerks, if they had it at drug stores, it was getting harder and harder for him to find., although I don't consider myself a "barber shop" cologne type of guy, in my collection there are two I feel would fall into that category, one being Thallium Black - Yves de Sistelle for men, this is a aromatic, very herbal to my nose, the basil and clary sage are what seem to be the key players, the other one, is Fattan - Rasasi supposedly an Hermes Terre clone, vetiver and grapefruit are the stars in this one. both of these are above average performers for me. Thallium black bottle design is reminiscent of a barber shop pole. minus the red and white stripes.

My barbershop scents are Drakkar Noir and LeMale. Ik alot wouldnt categorize LeMale as that, but when I smell it, it smells like something a barber in the 1950s wouldve either splashed on your neck or more importantly the pomade in your hair, like a Murrays that I find smell really similar, also Clubman powder

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I wore only Le Male for years I wore it to night clubs at the shore and anytime I went out. To work once in a while but I would usually opt for a cheaper alternative for work so as not to waste my more expensive cologne back then

[@robertkerr9527]

I own Azzaro ph as well as Paco Rabanne ph. Both excellent but unique on their own. Growing up in the 60s and 70s I also had a flask of British Sterling on my dresser. Right next to my English Leather. I must have been 13! It was a common Christmas give for teen boys back then along with a faux turtle shell brush and comb.. My tastes have evolved but I'm always drawn back to my barbershop roots. Even my signature scent- Eau Sauvage Parfum 2017- has a dash of lavender. Happy holidays brother. Appreciate your interest and respect for the classics. I'm hoping for Versace L'Homme and Aramis JHL for Christmas 🎄. I've embraced my age and stopped testing the sweet and weak aquatics being marketed these days.

[@justaddlight]

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey Not at all! Beach Hut is more of a minty green amber scent. Not exactly a fougere in my books but does give off a barbershop vibe. 1725's on the sweet side.

[@surfgreen111]

Air tight list sir! I wouldn’t mind trying Acqua Di Silva. Can’t say enough good things about Fine. My favorites on this list is Paco and of course Drakkar. Some honorable mentions: Pinaud Clubman, Versace Dreamer, and maybe Le Male (but I get its sweeter). This video was a great way to cap off Labor Day weekend. 😃

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Brett I thought about throwing in clubman lol and I’m a precious le male owner but I know that is a fougere type for sure, glad you enjoyed the list, I could easily make another one soon with how many I had to pick from lol

Fantastic list, Kelan. My cousins in Greece tell me that what's considered "barbershop" in Europe is quite different. (Maybe because of the warmer climate?) Anyway, keep rocking and I would love to hear your take on Halston 1-12.

Amazing list, dude! Interesting you had the Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui on there. I originally had that on my list for the last video but it got edged out when I decided to do just 8. I love the scent but the reason it got axed was bc of the performance. I can barely get 2 hrs from my bottle for some reason. I'm gonna see if I can find that shower/ hair gel and see if layering helps it a bit. Added a couple to my growing SoSJ list! 😆 And thanks for the mention! Looking forward to Part 2!

Scent Remix wow I’m getting that feed back on how it’s not a great performer, I sprayed about 5 sprays yesterday and I could detect it all the way until I went to sleep well over 8 hours and my bottle is not vintage or anything. I love the scent but I have many strong performer scents that don’t last on me that much so it seems some what random

They are out there but harder to find at a decent cost, I’m sure ebay will have a bottle. But American Blend is so nice and very close to rive gauche so it’s a great substitute at a good cost.

Acqua di Parma is the only house (maybe Aramis, also) with which I have never been disappointed. I want to collect all of their male and unisex scents and I don't care what the critics say. They use photorealistic materials that transport me to Italy. I wish I could say that Guerlain could also be trusted likewise.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Tom Ford Beau du Jour for me is one of my favorite barbershops due to the incredible performance and sillage I get from it. One of the most complimented fragrances I have. I have a bottle of Rive Gauche about 50% full and it is just the king imho

[@TheWolveswolves]

Very interesting. Thanks.

[@solomonsvineyard5371]

Bro I love this list thanks

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Solomon's Vineyard thank you sir !

Another good pure barbershop cologne is Taylor of Old Bond Street- Mr. Taylor's. Very refined and gentlemanly. And def smells like you just stepped out of a barbershop in London.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I’ve seen that brand but never tried I know they have one called sandalwood, looks pretty high end, how are they ?

[@richp.738]

​@@ScentsOfSouthJersey They do aim for a refined feel but the prices are decent. Mr. Taylor's is $36ish for 100mil. Platinum, which is a pear-centered fragrance is a bit more. They lean toward the shaving/grooming side of fragrance. Their strength is their elegance and their innocence. The emphasis is on subtlety and balance. On the flip side, there's no boldness to them- def not anything one would wear for a night out on the town. Personally, I wouldn't wear them to the office, either, bc in a fast-paced setting they can come off as a little dated or stuffy. But for weekend day wear, casual or formal, or for "right after the shower/shave," I've enjoyed them quite a bit. I'm into history so I dig anything that makes me smell like I'm in a different place and time. And, without a doubt, these make me feel like I'm on my way to the gentlemen's club to sit on a leather chair and have a sherry in 1800's London.

I have American Blend and it’s great. Fougere is my favorite type of scent. I also have Paco Rabanne.

[@SamNoriegaPR]

My favorite scent in the perfumery.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Sam Noriega barbershop fragrances are some of the best kind !

[@snortchgortch4253]

Fantastic list! Pour Lui is something special. How close is the American Blend aftershave to Rive Gauche in your opinion? Thank you!

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Snortch Gortch id say it’s very close 97% and with how little impressions of rive gauche even exist this one is a must have for 30$

[@snortchgortch4253]

Scents Of South Jersey thank you sir. I was so close to getting the EDT. I ended up getting two bottles of the aftershave that’s how much I like it. I have a big atomizer ha ha the EDT is now on my hit list 👍

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Snortch Gortch it’s a must have I love that stuff I need to use it more lol

[@stevecinneide8183]

Was gonna say my DK smells like shaving cream with a dash of lavender, nothing fancy (one of the few blind buy regrets I have). Might try a vintage bottle sometime.....

[@zackbennett5609]

Hey man, do you have any experience with Middle East frags? If so, I’d like to see a top ten

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I do not own any, aside from a few Al-rehab clone scents. The ones I have tried from houses like Armaf and Afnan I have not been a huge fan of. Aside from club de nuit intense man since it’s a decent aventus clone

[@zackbennett5609]

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey Ok, thanks. Once again, great vid. Love those old scents…classic.

[@Mehrdad1]

Another awesome video. Quick question, if I buy Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, do I need Bogart? Because, I hear that they are similar.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Mehrdad1 in my opinion they are nothing a like, I would get both especially because Bogart is very cheap but if you are set on only buying one then go with Paco Rabanne Pour Homme for sure

[@Mehrdad1]

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey Thank you so much! I guess I'll have to get both.

[@TheBTEAMwins]

Late to the party 🎉 Great list Big K, I still gotta try American Blend. If u say it’s similar then I believe you. My top 10 list in no particular order would be: Rive gauche MDCI invasion Barbare Azzaro pour homme Dior Eau Sauvage ADP Colonia Tom Ford Beau de jour Epsilon blu Mediterranean aftershave (great performance for after shave) Polo green At the barbers MM Masculin Pluriel MFK And I’m gonna throw a curve ball and go with Creed’s Viking

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

TheHonestjbone that’s a great line up, I want to try invasion barbare I have the dua version, but I got a nice size sample of creed Viking and it was so floral almost like potpourri that’s what I was reminded of, the scent didn’t fit the name I felt lol

[@TheBTEAMwins]

Scents Of South Jersey really?!?!?? Oh man I get like a peppermint almost cooling menthol thing? Like unmmm tiger balm! Spicy! Try out that epsilon! Menthol aftershave GREAT performance I decant it into a spray bottle.
