Highlighting Every 10/10 Fragrance In 10 Designer Brands | Men's Cologne/Perfume Review 2023

[@jaimelacalle2802]

I feel like the 3/4 seasons criteria can really hurt darker fragrances. I think that just like music or art, limited audience or lack of versatility shouldnt be able to take away a 10/10, especially if its a masterpiece fragrance

[@290revolver290]

Exactly 👌🏻

[@agentsparky8010]

Totally agree, always saw this as a fault in the rating.

[@rifatozok9974]

I think Noir extreme parfum is undoubtfully 10 out of 10!

[@heinmonaung8240]

I kinda agree too but you gotta dress real up to wear it.

[@megusta288]

DHI is easily a 11/10 for me. I'd wear it in any season tbh (yes even summer). I just love the fragrance so much.

[@MuzikM_85]

Viktor and Rolph SpiceBomb Extreme is a 10/10, as are Dior Sauvage Elixir, Mancera Intense Cedrat Boise, Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio Profumo and Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le Parfum.

[@tech-savant]

My list: -Chanel(Bleu de Chanel EDP & Allure Homme Sport) -Tom Ford(Noir Extreme EDP & Oud Wood) -Hermes(Terre d'Hermes EDT) -CH(none) -YSL(La Nuit de l'Homme EDT) -Dior(Sauvage EDT & EDP) -Moschino(Toy Boy) -JPG(Ultra Male) -Prada(l'Homme Intense, Luna Rossa Sport, Luna Rossa Black) -Armani(ADG Profumo, ADG EDT, ADG Parfum, Code Absolu, Code Parfum, Code EDT)

[@suissetobacco]

@tech-savant This is a much better list than Omar’s. I was surprised to hear him make a lot of questionable picks.

[@tech-savant]

@@suissetobacco yeah, there were a lot of strange picks that I would never expect from him

[@bunsenn5064]

THANK YOU for bringing some attention to Noir Anthracite. I remember visiting a fragrance shop, and the guy who ran it had Anthracite in his own personal collection. He let me try a whiff, and the moment I did, I was blown away by how profoundly well done it is as an herbal, aromatic fragrance.

[@heinmonaung8240]

Prada Lhomme Intense is 15 out of 10.

[@SchoolOfScent]

👌

[@daniellabuda7744]

Anteus and Kouros present glorious perfumery, will always repeat that. Agree 100%. Allure Eau Extreme is blended beautifully, I gifted the fragrance to my Dad. I pic lots of Coumarin, the way it is smoothed out is brilliant.

[@SchoolOfScent]

Glad you agree bro 👌

[@SpiceyJUk]

Some great fragrances there Omar! I've currently got a bottle of Antaeus on order. Rocking it to dinner on Friday night...can't wait!

[@sk190]

Thanks Omar. Love watching your videos, especially when I am traveling and need some help to ramp down from a stressful day

[@SchoolOfScent]

Love to hear it brother

[@RayhanUddinMohan]

Do you think the current batches of bleu de chanel EDT are worth it??? What's your opinion on it!!!! I've recently bought an edt 150 ml bottle for 140$ expecting the great old BDC I remember but I was disappointed immensely... The performance is trash compared to the batches made couple years ago and even the smell is a lot worse!!! Wasted my 140 bucks.

[@shaunf45]

Profumo, SWY Absolutely, DHI and Luminous Nights deserve 10/10

[@joaovitorgleite]

I watch that video bc no one talk about Kouros, and I love it. I think its challanging when you first feel, but I'm used to it and really love it!!! My clubbing fragrance.

[@jaypohl9651]

I love Dior Homme Original

[@hamza.69_77]

I bought a tester version of allure homme sport and i can't smell it after an hour. Am i nose blind or is it bcuz it tester version

[@KukulcanZ]

i prefer TF Noir to Noir Extreme for example but i never tried tha Anthracite flanker. Also Acqua di Parma colonia line is neat ; my prefered one is the club (green bottle) one. I never see those featured on the channel, but they are very classic smelling fragrances, probably more oriented to mature guys.

[@snubbii9276]

is four seasons really a good criterion to begin with. For most simply cold weather and warmer weather is easier to push the boundaries on versatility. Also nowt wrong with wearing freshies in winter for example, as long you look great, smell fantastic that meets my needs. BTW great ongoing luv for Prada LHI, my wife is partial to LR Black (hint, hint)

[@adampilarski7083]

This is great! Thanks, Omar! Hey, I just got my Mr Romantic and Mr Maritime samples and let me tell you - Mr Maritime: I’m in love 😍 That mango 🥭 is sooooo good.

[@SchoolOfScent]

👌👌👌❤️

[@abboed.4076]

(Again.. 🤓) The first time I smelled the original (1988-1993) Fahrenheit formulation it was the best thing I ever smelled by far and still one of the most intoxicating openings ever created. 😮 PS: Since I dropped my vintage bottle🤦🤷, I hope someone else will send around some samples to reviewers. 😌

[@steveb8269]

[@MivecAhmed]

Prada l homme intense is asuper choice i agree with you ❤

[@T20yur]

Hi, Terre de Hermes EDT or EDP? Thanks

[@johnjohannes5954]

IMO Kouros is the best pest repeller scent ! I agree with TF noir Anthracite. My best TF is Noir De Noir and Noir Extreme Parfum. Prada Luna Rossa Black is far better than L' Homme Intense

[@ionutalupei9505]

Dior Homme Original stand the test of time so well, that i put it above a lot of today frags

[@Teoo883]

narcisso rodriguez for him bleu noir the parfum is a 10/10 for me. what do you think about it ?

The smell is great..Longevity is the only problem

[@jaycegarcia3782]

what’s going on a with PDM. The new packaging of Layton 4.2 oz is $189 on fragrancenet but the older packaging is $239. Is PDM making their fragrances cheaper or was there another reformulation.

[@Favandscents]

Hey Omar, thank so much for your video. I have a question, I own bdc edp, prada lhomme OG, but both don't last very much on me, I thought I was going nose blind but heck no, what do you recommend I get that can last at least 8hrs for work and I can wear year round. PS: someone recommended ADG parfum (I heard it does last as long either) and mancera cederat Boise the OG and the intense (though I think the intense won't be ideal for work). Please help with you recommendations. Thanks a lot

[@comkioxd]

reflection man or reflection 45 man, don't complain about the price, it does all you want

[@shilliamwakespeare]

Great video I have a question though. Do you have any suggestions for a rugged animalic scent for younger guys? I love my sweet scents but wouldn't mind something more masculine

[@SchoolOfScent]

The closest thing I can think of is OG ombre leather, it is a tough profile to think of for 'younger' guys, the idea of the scent family is to go out of your comfort zone anyway 😉

[@shilliamwakespeare]

@@SchoolOfScent thanks 😊

[@jamesstarks3676]

Time duration isn't the be all, end all criteria for me. You may have to give up something special in the search of forcing longevity. Sometimes less is more and more is just too much. If it smells good and you understand it wont last forever, it can still be a 10/10

[@jimmyzlik8806]

Have you reviewed Mizensir perfect oud before? As well as Greenley Parfums de Marly? If not could you please consider doing so I’ve been thinking about purchasing those. If you have, what could also be some similar fragrances?

[@SchoolOfScent]

Not Perfect Oud, but I reviewed Greenley on our PDM buying guide 😊 an ‘affordable alternative’ to Greenley could actually be D&G Light Blue Eau Intense, the women’s version!

[@SchoolOfScent]

Le Male Elixir.

[@damien69666]

It can depend on your style and age, but dior homme intense is a great iris, smooth sent that gets labeled as a “date night” scent that, imo, can be a daytime scent that will stand out and be sexy, while not too loud.

[@anthonyhertlein4629]

Luna Rossa black if you're lookin for something somewhat unique that will still grab poditive attention

[@rares7772]

[@Humanxperience]

@@rares7772 Thank you very much for the reply.

[@Principemostprincipe]

I like your videos but have to give my own opinion on some questionable things Omar. TF noir - antracite is definetly discontinued. I would put there as 10/10 beau de jour. Dior homme original also does not exist anymore. I would put fahrenheit parfum as 10/10. Also sauvage elixir 10/10 Armani does not have one fragrance 10/10 imo JPG - le parfum is a flanker similar to outdated edt. I would put le male elixir as 10/10. Its a fantastic fragrance which is a big improvement over whole boring le male line, its less sweeter and cloying and i would say blended ti perfection. Initio - paragon. I would never give 10/10. Its leaning way feminine imo. Actually none of initio parfums is 10/10 if you ask me. They very prices for what they offer. Best one is oud for greatness but newest batches does not perform that good. Majority of the fragrances from initio house leans very very feminine. Oud for happiness, atomic rose, musk therapy, rehab, absolute aphrodisiac, paragon, psychodelique love, side effect

[@saulgoodmanandriese8658]

Is Le male le parfum just a night out fragrance?

[@MuzikM_85]

No I wouldn't say so but it sure is probably best worn during cooler weather. I've worn it to work and on nights out. Control the sprays and you will be ok.
