Don't Buy These Popular Fragrances, Buy THESE Instead! | Men's Cologne/Perfume Review 2021

[@Tsvetan.Tsvetkov28]

Really good video Omar, the y edp instead of sauvage was spot on, y edp is a blue king right now, so much better, huge longevity , great compliment factor. I do not agree however about 1 million being outdated, still is a king but yeah super common, i use prive and i am hyped about 1m elixir that will be released soon. The Eros EDP is much better than eros edt for me and swy intensely >the most wanted but both are pretty close. Everything else tho i agree 100% great video idea, would love to see you talk about the 2021 fragrantica charts and top10s and your opinion on them.

[@SchoolOfScent]

Thank you for your input friend and great idea!

[@jessecontreras447]

I agree on the one million thing. I was talking to a 19 year old girl that used to sell perfumes and mentioned that one million was her favorite scent on a guy. Frag comm is really out of touch with the common folk sometimes.

[@Tsvetan.Tsvetkov28]

@@jessecontreras447 Absolutely, people that have interests and knowledge about fragrances like to dis on it ,but I have a lot of female friends and I am yet to meet one that dislikes it, it is just a scent that works amazing, I really like it to be honest, sure I maybe prefer the prive flanker over but that does not stop me enjoying the og, it is a huge head turner and to this date one of the best sellers.

[@jessecontreras447]

@@Tsvetan.Tsvetkov28 whether frag comm likes it or not… one million is destined to be timeless like bleu de Chanel and acqua di gio. Yes on the prive, an even stronger compliment puller than the original.

[@donvito9691]

I agree. Totally.

[@sohatyi]

Totally agree with Instant Crush, it's unbelievable for the price. Mancera looks "expensive" compared to some designers, but the 120ml bottles and awesome performance means it's like you're getting a 200ml bottle for the price of entry.

[@SchoolOfScent]

Exactly right, I doubt anyone will get through 60ml Red Tobacco let alone 120ml 😂

[@mrdeillusionize5151]

Completely concur it's one of those which I think is underrated as a house.Its called an entry level niche house like it's a pejorative but it has scents which punch with the likes of Creed Xerjoff. Those houses may be more natural but more natural often sacrifices performance you need a good balance which Mancera and Montale have imo.Not all there scents are appealing but you can bet your bottom dollar with their expensive profile but they have something for you.

[@nowayJoseBaez]

You are very much right about the D&G light blue intense, I get annoying scent on my skin that I had to wash it off immediately after wearing it, the OG light is much better.

[@abiolaayinde754]

Smells like civet cat piss, and that’s being nice.

[@Dracomies]

I agree that the original Chanel Allure Homme Sport is a smoother alternative to Acqua Di Gio. I never put 2 and 2 together until you mentioned it. And Allure Homme Sport, not the Extreme one, has gotten me so many random compliments. I used to wear it a lot when I lived in Hawaii. If there's one area I disagree with it's D&G The One. I don't think I've seen anything that can match its smell. And it's smell actually isn't played out at all because so many people choose not to buy it - being turned off by its performance. But it's such a great smelling fragrance and it's better suited when someone is very close to you, really an amazing scent. Just had to get around the issue by bringing a Travelo atomizer and re-apply.

[@ExecutorCR]

I'm so sorry Omar, but La nuit de L'Homme is going to be part of my rotation FOREVER. I haven't found something as fresh and alluring as that for casual hangout nights with my wife.

I have a number of questions I would like to ask but don't know where to find answers. Any suggestions for information will be appreciated. My first question (2nd I guess). As reviewers point out the scents that make up a particular fragrance. I have no idea what many actually are. Bergamot, Amber (super shortlist to keep this post short-ish). Of course, many smells everyone understands, like citrus, leather, smoke (again shortlist for brevity). Is there a way to get an idea of what the (for lack of a better word) "component" scents that makeup fragrances smell like?? Great reviews, thanks in advance
