Keep Only 10 CHEAP Fragrances For Life *UPDATED for 2023*

[@ftorre8965]

I purchased Salvatore Ferragamo Essenziale on your recommendation and can't tell you how many compliments I have received.

[@lilredsensei20]

How’s the performance, if you don’t mind me asking?

[@ftorre8965]

@@lilredsensei20 I happen to be an over sprayer so my performance may be different than others. But it lasts on my skin 5 to 6 hours. Projects pretty strong for about 2 hours.

[@RoqueExclusives]

I usually get 8+ hours on my skin and I spray about 4-5 times. Gets me through the workday.

[@ICMOGreen]

Me too!

[@RBC0405]

What does it smell similar to?

[@ric9441]

I immediately bought Salvatore Ferragamo Acqua Essenziale Blu in February 2023 as soon as I smelled the tester in the perfume shop. The next day I came to the same store again to buy a second bottle. The first one has only 5% left. Will open the second new bottle soon. One day I came to a perfume shop (not the same shop where I bought Essenziale Blu) to check some fragrances on my wish list. As soon as I approached the two staff, they both kept saying how good my fragrance smelled, and asked what fragrance I was wearing. Maybe they have never smelled Essenziale Blu because they don't sell SALVATORE FERRAGAMO. This is an airy scent. Really like this Essenziale Blu. The nose behind this Essenziale Blu is a great perfumer Alberto Morillas. 🍻Cheers from Sarawak, Borneo Island.

[@Blazntrax81]

Missoni Wave gives me 8 hours every single time. What a gem.

[@brianclark6294]

Aqua essenziale blu will always be in my collection!! It definitely smells way more expensive than what it is to me! Cant go wrong with St Barts either! I love the salty lime i fet from it! Eau de cologne done right! Great video Ross! Keep up the hard work!

[@SMELLGOODER]

Indeed....... Salvatore Ferragamo Acqua Essenziale Blu!!! To ME...... it's gotta little bit of a tangy, a zingy quality. It's absolutely one of my favorite "blue" frags, too. Im SOOO glad that I grabbed 3 testers back in 2020, even though two of them haven't even been used yet. 🤷‍♂️ And at my age, and with my collection..... they might stay that way. Great stuff, Ross! 👃😎👃

[@mikebayong8057]

My favorite cheapies is by far "BOIS DE VETIVER " BY Karl Lagerfeld...smell natural(at least no harsh notes at the opening) amd always always make good impression with people and perform good

[@xAvi-PR]

I have Bois D’ Ambre from Lagerfeld and it’s like D&G The One with a little less tobacco. I’m curious about the Yuzu one. I need to see if there’s a buying guide for Karl Lagerfeld

[@mikebayong8057]

@@xAvi-PR I will try to get yuzu next..I got too many tobacco and amber frangances

[@xAvi-PR]

@@mikebayong8057 I’m interested in most of the line. I def have to check out the vetiver. I have a love/hate relationship with vetiver so I’m always weary of any frags with vetiver in the name lol

[@noelrodriguez6625]

Wow all freshies! CK One Shock is a cheapie I will ALWAYS have a bottle of. I’ll never get tired of it, it is an absolute staple and signature in my collection for cool weather

[@ismaelllamas9226]

Faconnable Riviera is 🔥. Found at Ross and looking for another. I recently got coach for men at Ross as well and love it.

[@LE_NOMAD90]

Bought Missoni Wave back when it was first getting hyped and so glad I did. 1/4th thru my bottle and it actually performs way better on my skin than AHS Eau Extreme. Very interesred in the Ferragamo cheapie.

[@FragranceFraternity]

Awesome video that was fun. Two that I’d like to keep are Montblanc Legend EDP and Individuel.

[@Joel_Matrix]

Mont Blanc Legend EDP 🤓👌

[@MrPickin4fun]

I love both Eternity EDT and EDP. They are both bangers and each have their own unique smell. They are so good!!

[@Blazntrax81]

That's a bold statement Ross. Dylan Blue is Killer. 10 hrs everytime. Any season. Love it.

[@bellantwain21]

Nice review and choice's I'm wearing Tommy Bahama that's my scent of the day love the video Ross stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way

[@kissland2789]

Faconnable Riviera is mad good for the price. I love it.

[@ICMOGreen]

I took your advice, and bought a 50 ml bottle. Iove it. I recently purchased a 100 ml.

[@hydroxy]

Great review, thank you kindly for giving us a collection of good cheapies.

[@user-yn6ir4ix1y]

My five must have cheapies is 1. Calvin Klein eternity aqua 2. Cremo spice and black vanilla 3. Coach platinum 4. Nautica voyage 5. Armaf tres nuit

[@travisbarras3945]

the cleanest most fresh smelling fragrance is a very simple soapy scent.. its called Nui Bleu by house of violet... defiantly worth the $150 for the bottle.. perfomance on me is incredible..

[@LithiumBG]

Watching you for a long time, so no surprise I have more than half of these. I got Acqua Essenziale Blu solely because of you, and I am happy I got it, such a nice classy scent! My top "10 Cheap fragrances for life" list would surely include at least a couple scents from Lalique and Jacques Bogart.

[@Joel_Matrix]

Ted Lapidus does great ones too. I love black soul imperial 👍🤓👌

[@Hill3304]

My list would include one I know you are a fan of - Pepe Jeans Celebrate . It is somewhat unique with black current and citrus with a light chocolate note , then becomes a gourmand fragrance with cinnamon , tonka and cacao in mid with a sparkling gin note . The dry down consist of amberwood with some patchouli .It shares notes of 3 popular mainstream fragrances , but has an identity of its own . A true hidden gem for $30 !

[@exousiaproperties883]

How about performance? Average or above average or real loud and longlasting ?

[@Hill3304]

@@exousiaproperties883 TBH. about 6 hours, but for that price you cant expect a lot more . But for those 6 hours , one of most pleasant and mass appealing scents in my collection .

[@santanarodriguez881]

Found a 50ml Aqua essceziale blu for $12 at Macy's backstage. It's a pretty good blue fragrance addition for my collection, but I definitely prefer Dylan blue.

[@ivicaarsov7216]

Two for me , definitely Rochas L' homme - that blood orange in the opening, damn, if only that lasts longer, that intoxicates me ... Also for summer, melon and cappuccino mix, AB Blue Seduction - only downside, lasts only 3-4 hours on me, but this summer already used 50ml, now eating new 100ml 😅... Great list Ross, keep rolling the 🔥 content!!!! 👌👍

[@RoqueExclusives]

get the 200 ml blue seduction. Usually $5 more for another 100 ml. I wish it did last longer

[@carlosread5887]

I have the Missoni Blue. Love it so much that my bottle is already less than halve! Curious about the Riviera Will see if I can find it..

[@fess04]

im goin' TB Martinique. but to be fair, i used my whole St Bart's ..lol. its nice and suprisingly versatile in lots of situations .Guess Man (the green) is still awesome and Zara Florence is super nice. Just got Star Men Nebula by Fragrance World a Pure Malt clone and loving that one :).

[@zsb707]

I bought Ferragamo Aqua Essenziale Blu and Intense leather. Essenziale had to go but Intense leather is part of my rotation.

[@derekjackson1039]

SFE is solid spring/early summer, love MW for summer/sig

[@nykia31]

Ferragamo is one of the best budget, entry level fragrance houses. You can get 2 or 3 really nice fragrances for well under $100

[@zacharyvanbuskirk9083]

Kind of expected to see tobacco and tonka bean. I’m going to have to check some of those out

[@JustAnotherLou]

Yeah, Acqua Essenziale Blu is one of my favorites from that list, it kinda gives me the same vibe as Bleu de Chanel which I love, really nice and elegant fragance, my other favorites are Rochas L'Homme and Chrome Extreme.

[@DocRock71]

In regards to your comment at the end of the video about having St Barts since 2010, it cracks me up how a lot of people will try to claim that fragrances "expire" and "go bad" after 3-5 years. That's absurd. There are fragrances and oils that are still good, if not almost the same, after 30-40 years! The top notes can become muted though. I have over a dozen bottles that I bought when I first started into fragrances in 2010, that still smell the same, or even better, and richer than when I bought them 13 years ago. I've bought over 120 bottles since 2010 and not one has ever "gone bad". Not one. If consistently stored in the coolest, darkest and driest location in your house (luckily for me my north facing bedroom closet), almost all of them will never go bad.

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

[@johnathanwilliams3205]

I just got my Salvatore Ferragamo Acqua Essenziale Blu and chrome extreme 3 weeks ago… I wore it a couple of time but I’m really let it sit and macerate

[@justinjoice5640]

Almost all blues for the win!!!

[@lawrences.6298]

Aspen would be a cheapie for life for me. Still smells the same as Cool Water OG from the 90s but at around $10 or so for a 118 ml bottle and some say same vibes as Green Irish Tweed (never smelled it) that I can use literally everyday and just respray after 4-5 hours and it won't hurt me. 😊

[@McCarthyRay]

I puchased the Acqua Essentiale as it was a cheapie. Its not horrible, but its not great either. If its between Dylan Blue and Acqua, I will reach for DB every time. Acqua doesn't work as well with my body chemistry i guess.

[@michaelduncan4379]

Ross, I'm definitely with you on that Aqua Essenziale Blu and Missoni Wave. When you turn us onto those, I immediately said these are lifers. Avon's Black Suede is another cheapie for life for me.

[@jasonwalter8636]

Wave is head and shoulders better than AEB as far as mass appeal. AEB is too powdery for some, including myself

[@gustavoallende5774]

Ross, I didn't expect Cool Water Parfum on here. I didn't know it was cheap now. I wanna try it.

[@adamcrocker5356]

If I could keep 1 inexpensive fragrance for life it would be Missoni parfum pour homme. Very versatile, smells phenomenal and fantastic performance.

[@ThecrosseyedTexan]

I gave my Chrome extreme to a friend of mine after I got ADG profondo. Out of the chrome line aqueous my favorite. Try that stuff in the winter time believe it or not it actually works. But my favorite out of the chrome line bar none is united. I love that powdery undertone it has. I haven't had that great of luck with Chrome EDP although I've only worn it about three times. Love your videos dude

What's happening Ross the Boss? I trust your judgement completely. I am going to order Fasionable. My Dylan Blue about half a bottle. Essenzale Blu. Always amazing. Down to half a bottle. Im going to check Insurrection sport. Next haul Spicebomb infarred, Mancera vetiver sensual. Azzaro wanted parfum. And most likely Boss Magnetic???

[@Joel_Matrix]

Mancera vetiver sensuel is 🔥🔥🔥

[@bigzizzo]

I have six of these and 5 of them were of off your recommendations. I knew four of these were for sure going to be on your list. I was surprised that Cambridge Knight wasn’t on there. I would’ve had Davidoff Run Wild Montblanc Individuel or Starwalker Original Cool Water Perry Ellis 360 White Drakkar Intense Are some that could make my list.

[@shaunphan9039]

Thanks for the list. I have Missoni Wave, chrome extreme and Coach for men. Absolutely solid scents. I think Coach Green is even better than the OG coach but I'm still waiting for the price to drop a little more before I purchase it. There are a few on your list that I really wanna get and will definitely keep an eye out for them.

[@K_Reezee75]

I dont know why I just dont like Acqua Essenzial Blu. Its very boring to me just Amber and Tonka. thats all I smell. I much prefer the OG. Seems like there is more too it and more of a compliment getter for me. The rest of the list is A+. Great vid as always.

[@SDLVlifestyle]

Good list, i have a most of them and really like them other than HM Hero tried it once, too sweet and never picked up Tommy Bahama. I would have had some of the same picks, but included Bentley Black Edition, and Zara Magnificent Black even though its not being made anymore maybe the best cheapie ever tbh...

[@eliasarches2575]

Coach for men is for sure the best cheapie I own.
