Top 12 BEST Designer Fragrances for Winter 2017 + GIVEAWAY (CLOSED)

[@shaneg3097]

Great winter lists for designer and niche. So far it's been Ralph Lauren Supreme Oud but ready to try something different. You videos are always so uplifting. Thanks Carlos for always keeping it interesting and enjoyable. Happy holidays!

[@kvnnn]

Believe it or not, I’m really digging CK One Shock this fall and winter. Great video, Carlos! Thanks for all the great and new content.

[@williamdalexander4858]

I'm really glad you showed people you don't have to break the bank to smell great...... a sample pack of all twelve is very generous of you..... well, great content as always, and merry Christmas brother.......

[@FusionGel]

Great list. Love Burberry London, but my favorite winter fragrance has to be TF Oud Wood. Tried By the Fireplace recently at Sephora. Thought it was really sweet but gorgeous all the same. Have a Happy New Year Carlos.

[@troybklynny1]

Hey Carlos! My favorite winter designer fragrance is Pure Havane. Didn't love it first, but the more I tested it, the more I fell in love. Definitely a mainstay in my collection. Have a wonderful holiday, Carlos! And please keep the awesome content coming!! 😁

[@trevorrabbach6683]

I've watched quite a few of your videos but this is the one that got me to finally subscribe. I really like the format: quick and to the point, with some great choices. Nicely done! My favorite winter designer is either Dior Homme Parfum or D&G The One EDP.

[@abrahamgutierrez4459]

I've been wanting gucci intense oud for a long time, and now that you recommend it, I want it even more. Thank you for this list Carlos, happy holidays!

[@eraser050]

my most worn winter fragrances so far have been Valentino Uomo and Valentino Uomo Intense. I took them with me on a recent trip to Budapest and Vienna and they were awesome! Thanks for the list and the giveaway! Great picks. :)

[@husainelsharnouby7151]

Another super list! My favourite designer for winter would have to be Guerlain l'homme ideal edp but I did smell Lui at Harrods last week and you're absolutely right, the benzoin is gorgeous and it has a nice leather note to my nose, a terrific release that didnt get much talk oddly enough. Merry Christmas to you good sir!

[@corymcdermott5322]

Hey Carlos. Another great list. I always find myself going back to Burberry London as my favorite, but I have added many new fragrances to my collection over the past year, including Bentley Intense and PE BVA. Time to mix it up!

[@jeppjohnboy]

So far, Boss Bottled Intense, has been the one I've been grabbing the most recently. Congratulations on 18k! Merry Christmas to you

[@sergs9455]

Carlos Congratulations on 18K subs!! The BFL army is growing :-) I have 3 from this list thanks to your reviews and love them. I still have not tried VUN Absolute and it is your #1 - shame on me... Merry Christmas, Feliz Navidad to you and the BFL family!

[@tor3603]

Nice to see Eros making your list! Surprised not to see JPG Ultra Male on it though... TF tobacco vanilla, replica jazz club, ultra male and ysl la nuit are my favourites. I enjoy pretty much all my fragrances equally and those are my winter orientated scents!

[@Rynadian]

Another super generous giveaway, and quite the great list! I forgot how much you enjoyed that Valentino, was expecting Prada to take top honours.

[@ericdunthorne1981]

My favorite winter designer fragrance is MAC Velvet Teddy. To me it smells like Tobacco Vanille in its dry down. Velvet Teddy has excellent projection and longevity. Next time I'm at a place that carries Velvet Teddy I'm going to buy a backup bottle. Thanks for the giveaway and everything you do for the fragrance community.

[@bernie7772]

You must be the hardest working man in the frag comm! Another great list. I do love the Prada DNA. Yet to try Valentino. My current designer fragrance is Versace Homme. Thanks again, sir and Merry Christmas!

[@benkelsey891]

I love Burberry London. It is my go to for winter and gets me a lot of compliments actually. I will probably have it in my collection forever.

[@doowtnehpets]

My favorite winter designer is probably L'homme Ideal from Guerlain. I almost forgot about it...time to wear it tomorrow. Awesome designer list, btw, some great choices. I really want to try that Dior Fahrenheit Parfum, you make it sound great every time you talk about it.

[@Nights_eye_puppets]

Another great one Carlos. So many stunning choices but if I had to choose my favorite winter fragrance it would have to be London. Went through my 1.7 ml bottle not too long ago. Lol Love your enthusiasm and your choices. Thanks for the opportunity. Have a great day my man.

[@gonzaljevic]

Thanks for the opportunity. My favorite winter fragrance is fahrenheit parfum.

[@Amilovesperfume]

Thanks for this video Carlos. I don't know much about men's designer fragrances so your list helps when I want to get my son some fragrances!

[@khajakastourian8429]

Great choices for Winter Carlos. My favourite Winter fragrances from my collection are Bulgari Man In Black, Burberry London, Jacques Bogart Homme, Bentley Absolute, YSL Opium , Ferrari Leather Essence

[@Liev.H]

1:33 I'm with you Carlos on this one, based on the reviews I thought it would be one-million-sweet but once I sampled it I had to get it. It lasts so much and the dry down is soft and cozy, great that you give it props. The ones I'll be reaching for the most I think are going to be Midnight in Paris, CH Men Privé and Pure Malt/Havane. Please consider reviewing Givenchy Gentlemen Only Intense. Merry Xmas.

[@laurenlovesfrags]

Thanks so much for the giveaway Carlos! I've been loving Burberry London layered with Halston Amber Man...such a warm and spicy combo 😊

[@justaddlight]

OOOooo I love to wear A*Men over the winter. It has a special place in my heart because it was one of the first that got me back into fragrances. And you know how it goes - the frags that you originally hate and them come to love are the ones you remember most - forever and ever, A*men.

[@rocket83cs]

Thank you Carlos! If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have tried Valentino Noir Absolu and La Nuit de L’homme Eau Electrique because of the negative ratings on Fragrantica. You convinced me to try them and turns out they both smell amazing. I’m going to put a lot less weight in Fragrantica ratings going forward.

[@DasJav]

Yes, I like Valentino Uomo Noir Absolu over the Intense. The Intense is so smooth. Smelling the Noir version I think I preferred it a little more. Unfortunately, the only place I've found it is in Bloomingdale's. I'll have to go back an try it once more before purchasing a bottle.

[@ThyKingz]

Gucci intense oud! I've wanted to smell that for a while but cant seem to find the bottle anywhere to sample before purchase. This is a great review. you just made me search for my bottle of London I havnt touch in many years!

[@manuelsoto9939]

By the Fireplace by MM is my favorite winter scent. Even though its like 80°F where I live during winter.

[@sumanth13]

Amazing list there, gently arranged and laid out thanks for that! My favourite winter fragrance is Burberry Brit Rythm Intense, perfect cold breeze leather jacket fragrance the scent transports your soul to a serene and calm dimension imo. Cheers to you!

[@georgekapetanios2841]

Great content as usual Carlos. For me it’s got to be DHP it’s a real head turner, compliments galore and smells like niche quality. Keep up the fantastic work C.

[@cesarvalle3773]

currently my winter favs are CH prive men and maison margiela jazz club but I would loveee to try out most of your list! great vid btw

[@IrishFF187]

So many on this list I need to try. I'm going to give Dior Eau Sauvage Pafum a try for a winter fragrance. Great videos.

[@cfomba1]

Great list of winter fragrances. One of my favorite winter fragrances is F Black by Salvatorre Ferragamo. Merry Christmas to you!

[@serpico4912]

Love all your videos! I’m just starting to get into fragrances, but so far my favorite winter frag is Zegna’s Indonesian Oud. Love that stuff.

[@bigidybe]

Hey Carlos great list. My top designer for winter this year will be the OG armani code. Just dusted it off and am planning to give it some heavy usage this winter

[@oscarm7206]

Great list Carlos! Great video! No Mugler?! Pure Tonka my man. Ive been wearing that a few times this winter.

[@shave-a-thon3415]

I know it's hard to pack too much into 6 and a half minutes, but 10 seconds about the performance/projection/longevity for each one would be a nice addition. Performance can be subjective while having much to do with one's skin and of course the batch date of the bottle (which we never hear) , but it would be helpful nonetheless. The under 15 minute videos are great because I can watch them in 1.25x speed rather than pushing it to 1.5x speed.😉 Good selection. I can still smell Eros on my arm (bringing my nose there) the day after I shower! It's impossible to dislike that kind of powerhouse! Bentley Intense is coming. Dior Homme Parfum is hard to get so I'll have to settle for DHI when the price is right.

[@vincentdenich5034]

Great video Carlos. I'd say Prada L'homme Intense would be my favorite on the list. Great fragrance.

[@jamesweaver5776]

wonderful list my favorite winter designer fragrance is dunhill icon

[@owndepths5498]

Great list ...that new Valentino sounds like something dark from what i hear , Dior homme intense is my thing for the cold winter days. Thanks

[@dimitristinagalatas9765]

Wow i need to try asap the perry ellis perfume sounds very intriguing.My favourite perfume currently is the polo ralph lauren blue,me and my wife enjoy this one a lot and would live to discover more new loves

[@calebweintraub1]

Another good list . I like bottega veneta pour homme for the winter. I hear ya about Eros. Smells great...but, admitting it is Like putting cream and sugar in coffee at a table where people just don’t...A guilty pleasure.

[@kelvs77]

since i live in a tropical country, my winter/cold designer pick would be Dior homme. Would like to try heavier scents if it would fit our weather. Nice list carlos keep it up

[@bryanf7021]

Great video. Been thinking about picking up that Bentley intense. My most worn winter designer fragrance at the moment is dolce and gabana the one edp.

[@letchascaster8593]

Great list just got by the fire place yesterday can't wait til it gets cold to wear it

[@suprotikchakrabarti3129]

I want to try all of these, except for Eros, which I have. Favourite winter designer is Dior homme intense

[@patrickponce1056]

What a list!! 👍 I'm loving John Varvatos Dark Rebel Rider right now for the winter. Also love Gucci Guilty Absolute. Great job as always!

[@Dion.Trinidad]

What a list Carlos!! I've worn Versace Eros the most for winter so far. Is there one here that can carry over to spring too?

[@scottycarter5442]

Dion Trinidad if any from this list could be worn in spring aswell it would be Eros and the Prada imo

[@Dion.Trinidad]

Great! Thanks Scotty, I may get the Prada then too! I'll check out how it smells on me first.

[@scottycarter5442]

Dion Trinidad I have a sample of the Prada but I can't tell if it's the intense version or not but I've heard the original is better than the intense. either way it smells like the nicest bar of soap you'll ever smell. very clean

[@Dion.Trinidad]

Going to Macy's now! lol

[@ahmetindere4726]

My favourite winter disigner scent for this year is either The One EDP or Valentino Uomo Intense!

[@jayarthur4130]

[@handicapvisions6517]

Favorite winter designer Ferragamo uomo. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas Carlos!

[@insensmusic]

Hey Carlos, big ups from Bulgaria!!! Me and my wife love to watch your honest videos!

[@romashka00]

Thank you Carlos for review, did you have a chance to try Guerlain Moscow ? Its sweet, balsamic woody and for some reason I am enjoying this perfume during winter time :)

[@Guinea54]

Fantastic list. I knew uomo noir would be number one.. after your reaction video I was like this is going to make 1st.. I DEFINITELY get the black orchid relation.. Definitely.. I like it, its unique, but i still prefer uomo intense.. but i have to say... absolute noir is definitely a more refined scent.. smells like better quality. Happy holidays

Fabulous list Carlos! My current favorite designer for winter is Pure Havane.

[@juanchioooo]

My fav still has to be DHI! I really need to try the new valentinos but i can only get the original over here

[@elhi1938]

Great list Carlos,but you missed two of my favourites Code Profumo & Ultra Male :)Anyway i would love to check out Prada L'intense & Noir Absolu

[@leoguzman8757]

I been wanting to try LUÍ so bad, Feliz Navidad Mr. Carlos 😃🎄

[@ecoyt1]

@BrooklynFragranceLover, I’ve been trying to get my nose in the Valentino uomo absolute. Can I buy a decant from you?

[@melanieseplow7350]

Merry Christmas Carlos. I would love to have samples of these fabulous scents for my honey. My favorite winter fragrance is the Valentino.!❤️

[@Bejanur]

Solid list. Got a lot of niche quality right there. My favorite for this winter is TF Noir Extremeeee, again.

[@arthurphillips7145]

My fave winter designer is Narcisco Rodriguez Blue Noir

[@brianwade9474]

I would have a hard time narrowing it down to one winter favorite. 😊 That is a great list you have. Great video.

[@marlonjones8451]

Hi Carlos. My favorite designer winter fragrance for 2017 is Bvlgari Man in Black Essence

[@soltafari]

I only have Uomo out of this lot, but my favorite winter scent is 18.21

[@ssata7614]

Nice list! My favourite or the one i have been using is the Guerlain LUI!

[@torryjean-baptiste2627]

Very solid list Carlos....DHP is my favourite winter fragrance!

[@tommys2077]

Gucci Intense oud for me. Happy holidays Carlos

[@jacksonperry3324]

Wow, what a list! And such a generous giveaway that you can count me in on! My favourite winter designer would have to be Gentlemen Only Absolute by Givenchy, such an underrated fragrance.

[@BrooklynFragranceLover]

I do like that one

[@aaron_luke96]

Carlos! I really think you need to give Lanvin Avant Garde a nice wearing or two. It is such a stunning fragrance. Niche quality for 25 bucks. It does have this La Nuit DeLhomme vibe. But, it has such a gorgeous beeswax and tobacco combo that is too die for.

[@sabeehahmad5303]

Couple of my favourites in your top 12 : ). My favorite is Prada L'homme intense. SF Uomo would be up there too if it didn't have longevity issues, which is a deal breaker for the winter season.

[@mislevis]

Thierry Mugler Pure Havane and Pure malt are great; Lanvin Avant garde and Van Cleef MiP are very nice too.

[@jimmyrose17]

My favorite that I've owned is Pure Havane. I love it. Great list as always Carlos

[@theaceman2009]

Carlos you're the greatest that was a good selection you picked as your favorite for winter I hope you have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year my favorite fragrance for winter so far is Valentino Uomo intense and Black Phantom

[@brandonhubbard1154]

My favorite right now has been Halston Man Amber. Loving it.

[@Recharg3]

Great top Carlos 👍🏻 my favourite designer for winter is DHI or DHP
