THE 15 BEST SMELLING CHEAP FRAGRANCES FOR MEN 2021

[@yadigzz]

I watch your channel the most because you always come up with videos for us broke boys lol

[@timyoung4039]

Unfortunately us “broke boyz” end up thinking we’re “rich men” and start buying stuff we can’t afford. I start getting into higher end designers and trying to stays way from the niche stuff unless I find them EXTREMELY discounted. I do plan on maybe getting Ross’ fragrance of the note breakdown tickles me the right way.

You can always decant your fragrance for sale as a side hustle to fund your addict.. err hobby. I for one always looking to buy decants of stuff I dont own as long as the price is reasonable.

[@tonifresco1844]

See man the great thing about you is that you arent what some people like to call "fragrance snobs" You go out of your way to find great inexpensive scents for us average joes that havent quite made it in life yet lol. You always put us onto fragrences that will have us smelling great for the right price. Your videos always pop up on my feed and I'm a frequent viewer and subscriber of your channel. You have put me onto a lot of great scents and have never let me down. I get a good idea of what to buy based off of your descriptions of the scents and you've helped me build a solid collection. Keep doing your thing OG 💪

[@jonathanrey000]

My wife bought me that Vince Camuto Homme and I laughed when she gave it to me. I started wearing it and absolutely loved it after a while. 😂 I’ll be buying a second bottle.

[@sivicslady9882]

I ordered a bottle of Kenneth Cole Reaction for my Handsome and a sample of the women’s fragrance, too✨ The waiting part is hard😅 I enjoy your channel so much and it got me building a mini collection of fragrances for him. Thank you😎🤙

[@TheFragranceWardrobe]

Yessss! Those Tommy shirts and wearing the decants of Tommy we would get from the department store. Man that takes me back

[@timyoung4039]

I’ve been seeing a lot of people, men and women, posting pics of them picking up Tommy. I like to think I’m responsible for rebooting it. I didn’t see anyone talking about it when i first came into the FB groups and then I started mentioning it quite a bit and now I see people picking it up.

One of the most underrated cheapies is " Moschino Uomo? ". You need to try, very clean, musky with a little bit of citrus. Smells very "italian" in my opinion.

I am myself a fan of man scents, I have through the years always had some that to my nose are considered unisex, the more sweet ones and even the freshies, I love a good citrus, bergamot (Ferrari Bright Neroli) or even more vintagy Carolina Herrera the OG for Men....OMG it was my fave in the 90´s......brilliant I have as of now been buying a few of the Mans section in Zara, you must try them brilliant cheapies, and just got Gucci Guilty Absolute for Man.....love it and I will continue to expand my " male" collection" but of course those more considered " unisex" cause the power houses male male, I have a hard time to tolerate on myself hahahaha!

[@vergeramos]

First time I rock legend at work I got a compliment so this juice is on point fella's.

[@judobabo4767]

Armaf milestone is about the same price as unforgivable and there's not even a competition in scent profile. Milestone wins in every category. Imo milestone is definitely one of the best cheapies on the market. After wearing acqua essenziale blu for awhile I noticed the powdery aspect resembles prada lhomme. Can't go wrong with acqua essenziale blu, def a solid cheapie

[@tittsmcgee7004]

Have you tried Sillage from Armaf? Excellent clone of SMW for about the same price as Milestone.

Finally found First Instinct Together after a month of checking in at rack stores like I worked there. Felt like I won the damn lotto after all the efforts. I do like it, however, it is very similar to one I already own, which is Hawas. Which you know is well praised, so you're definitely steering us in the right directions.

Much love and thanks for sharing the info as always!

Still lookin for NJ/JV and unforgivable in the rack stores. Some of my best finds have come from TJ Maxx! Tommy is so timeless man! I was born in 80 and soon as I turned 15 I bought it!

[@markmullen1852]

Kenneth Cole T Shirt gets me more compliments than any cologne I've ever had.

[@kennyhardy1884]

Ross I also personally messaged sonny/ authenticity.. and ask him to PLEASE continue the original summer vibes! Whereas if there are complaints about the potency, I suggested keeping it the same formulation while bumping up to notes a touch more, as I just recently purchased the newest version in this video, and it is outstanding, though I have received compliments with each and every wearing of the original! All he really needs to do is amp up each note with a bit more potency... in my opinion , to give it more kick or punch , as I look forward to grabbing up multiple bottles of both summer Vibes offerings! What are your thoughts on that suggestion? And as always you have me about to place another order and taking a road trip to Marshalls, TJ Maxx, and Burlington! PS 1981 Los Angeles is fire as I bought that off of your recommendation a few months back! Loving your no-nonsense straight to the point suggestions to keeping it lit with your bonfire fragrance choices!

Thank you..!!! I like Bentley fragrances, so I’ve bought most of them. And I bought Bentley for men just because I didn’t have it. When I put it on, it smelled almost exactly like intense, so of course I figured that I wasted $30. But the dry down is more subtle and friendly (like you said). And I totally agree...I will save intense for those cold Kansas winters, and wear the regular Bentley in spring and fall.

Fantastic review and recommendations man. I see so many of these you mentioned in the dept. stores and never made a blind buy. I usually research before I buy rather than keeping a bottle of juice for nothing. The Enternity Aqua, Guess 1981 Los Angeles, & Sean John I have already. Now I will be picking up the one you raved so so much about Vince Camuto Homme and the Ferry-Gum-Oh BLU I've seen it in the rack store many times but now I know I need to turn up next time.

I've been enjoying your content lately in regards to cheap beginner men's frags. I'm trying to find out which one to start my husband with. As long as it doesn't contain pine notes, then it's good. I'm leaning towards Paris Hilton for Men, or Nautica Voyage(haven't smelled NV tho), as I like safe, aquatic fresh accords with some amber or cedar. I absolutely love Dior Sauvage EDP as well as D&G Light Blue, but won't be in my budget for awhile. Anyway, how much would you recommend the ones I've mentioned? The NJ Silver sounds great btw.
