Top 20 Fragrances, Colognes Your Dad Wore | Top 20 Classic Men's Colognes & Fragrances

[@jeffrosenblum5053]

This is a great reference video for anyone thinking of visiting the classics. Perfect A+ video. Thank you.

[@MaxForti]

Really nice video Sebastian, some of my old time favorites were featured here... I'd love to see a Part II, Dalia has good taste is fragrance as well! ;)

[@rabidparrots]

My dad wears Brut and I'm really surprised that I haven't seen it in the comment section.

[@frankchris07]

my dad old spice

[@banzaiburger9589]

My dad has worn Old Spicy only for 50+ years, though I did get him to at least try Tabac Extreme and Caron Pour Un Homme once. He went right back to Old Spice

[@benchampion3768]

Daniel Oshima - Loooove Tabac Extreme!

[@TheRealBrook1968]

Same here and I used Brut to be a bit rebellious. Now I use Old Spice after shaving.

[@microcosm1957]

Saaammmmeee, hahaha, he only likes Old Spice 🤣

[@MrSillage]

I absolutely LOVE that Dalia brought up scent memory. I have a memory linked to EVERY one of the scents I own and every time I smell them out need clarity on remembering an event, I sniff the fragrance and it almost transports me there! Olfactive Time Traveling if you will! This is a great video. My father wore a lot of the cheaper scents but when I was young I used to always put this Cologne on. That's why he bought my the Pierre Cardan for him cologne and from there on, I ALWAYS had fragrances! Thanks for sharing this cool video Sebastian!👍👍

[@petrost1468]

Kouros YSL very good fragrance a category in it self.!! The name kouros.. of statue (beautiful means) Petros from Greece 🇬🇷

[@ChescoYT]

*Lagerfield (1978) Boozy, spicy, soapy MASTERPIECE!* (reformulated a million times and changed company hands multiple times)

[@mohtown8751]

The only cologne that I’ve seen my dad wear was Polo Green and I thought that would be on the list. But out of the ones you listed, I only have Habit Rouge. It has that old vibe kind of smell that kinda leans a little feminine to my nose.

[@hoodiepapa7344]

Great collaboration. Really good chemistry. She's great! Nice smile

[@vetiverfreak1890]

Azzaro PH, Ralph Lauren Polo, Paco Rabanne PH, Hermes Bel Ami deserved honourable mentions at least :).

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

We can always launch the hour-long version? We cut out a lot! :)

[@vetiverfreak1890]

Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews I totally understand it :). Anyway, great list :)

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Maybe we will do a part two? Although I'm not sure I can pick up another 20 more old school fragrance? ;)

[@vetiverfreak1890]

Smelling Great Fragrance Reviews that's easy: Azzaro, Polo, Paco Rabanne, Bel Ami, Ted Lapidus PH, Brut, YSL PH, YSL Jazz, Van Cleef&Arpels Tsar, Aramis Devin, Jovan Musk, Drakkar Noir etc.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

All the Aramis releases are excellent!! :)

[@showbizfolks7736]

thank you two for this great video, my wife and i loved watching it. the two of you are having so much fun and it shows it's not forced or fake like other reviewers. now off to amazon to buy a few of those

[@babylonreviews9827]

Ysl kouros the king!

[@MultiMrMiles]

these scents RULE...new stuff is boring and 70-80s scents are in control! My dad always used original Tabac, my brother JAZZ YSL and Zino as did i, some Kouros and Lancome, and Fendi andTrussardi...in the end the 80s were incredible! If you werent around in those years u never understand what it al ment...and how cool times it was...really, walking into Lafayette or Printemps in paris and be in scent heaven...no niche all designer when scents were ART!!

[@greysuit17]

Great video! Makes me want to buy all the vintage frags!

[@scottwilbur25]

Flashback. I graduated HS in the 70's and these frags were our only choices. Many of these have changed due to regulations. Antaeus was much thicker with its oakmoss and heavy castoreum but is still good. Missed a few brands I recall from the day, Dakar, Polo, Brut, Lagerfeld, Pierre Cardin and Jovan Musk Oil!

[@ceewng5042]

I associate Brut with being very Dadly!

[@ralfp9809]

Absolutely great great great video !!! You should try some Alain Delon fragrances... :) greetings & respect from Poland :)

[@pandorap872]

Should have changed the title to Top 20 Dadly List 😀. Your chemistry is getting better every time and made me enjoy this longish video til the end 👍👍.

[@65Davis65]

I love you and Dalya together. Cheers, Davis.

[@wardone8991]

Also, Pino Silvestre for the working class dad who is a bit international.

[@michaelmcdonald9847]

My dad was wearing the modern d&g pour homme today and i was shocked at how good it smelled. I never liked it on myself so i gave him the bottle. I thought he had lost it but nope!

[@philosophyandfragrancej.j.6493]

Dior Eau Sauvage ✌🏻✌🏻

[@ScentedMoments]

Super funny video! Powerhouse list! My dad's ultimate fragrance is Chanel Allure Homme.

[@WildDoveX]

ROTFLMAO!!! Love Aramis, Z-14, wear em myself lightly for the right occasion. He had frags but never wore them, just a soap and water guy, with cigarette smoke and maybe some beer.

[@roccotool]

Old Spice for my Dad, while this teenager tried Brut, British Sterling (both kinds), and graduating to Canoe, Polo, Gucci, Z-14, Aramis, and Drakkar Noir. I'm seeing you cringe and I can tell you I can't stand them now.

[@benrees980]

What I list I bought several of the cheap ones on this list from your links so I can see what they are bout. Can't wait to try them. Thank you.

[@anasfaris9816]

My dad loves two fragrances Blue de channel EDP and Aramis by Aramis also he has backup bottles of these fragrances, good idea 👏

[@christospapadopoulos8139]

New subscriber to your channel great video. Just came here from Sycomore video. This bring back memories of my dad who hasn't been with us for years. But great reminder of the guy who got me into cologne.

[@Shanester66]

Grey Flannel is actually my #1 most complimented fragrance of all time. I wore the hell out of this in the late 80's early 90's. Sadly its been reformulated since then and doesnt work the same way on my skin.

[@michaelestell1973]

What does this smell like or remind you of..?

[@jackhasselhoff1021]

Michael Estell In 94 8th grade Jr High dance my friend said it was better then Fahrenheit... It's not 😁 !, but slightly similar it's close to Burberry Touch ...Smells like fresh baby powder clean but with violets gives it a slight cucumber smell good in overcast days or after rain it's airy and green try it it's only ten bux sheesh

[@donvito654]

Pierre Cardin... That would’ve been on my list.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Couldn't get a bottle but my dad wore it. :)

[@sorryremix]

I could smell some of those bottles just by looking @ them . Lots of mix memories with few for sure . Very well done guys 👏

[@aalbertoii09]

My dad wore Aramis as his signature then switched it to CK Eternity when it came out and that's all he has worn since. My step dad signature is Polo. Also I heard that John Gotti signature scent was Grey flannel. would love to see you guys do a mom list

[@justinrichards9702]

My dad loves cologne and he tells me I should smell good. He also tells me the classics are the best so I searched for classic cologne and your video popped up. I am now a subscirber to y our channel. Thank you. I will now send him this video.

[@mrpurple33]

2:10 That's what she said

[@brianelswick7374]

This was a really great list, and I love the Aramis fragrances. My Dad wore the likes of Brut and certain Avon fragrances. In fact, the last two Christmases, my Dad gifted me with Avon Black Suede and Wild Country. Those scents will always remind me of him.

[@russellgeorge1993]

KING KOUROS!

[@EricJohnson-vi6ri]

Antaeus is my favorite scent. Also, I just cam back from Asia, and they only sell the EDT of Pour Monsieur and do not carry the EDP anywhere.

[@briankelly85]

you forgot Pierre Cardin cologne. my favorite from the 1970's. it brings back so many fond memories.

[@bernie7772]

Hey, Dalia! Damn, I wore 5 of these fragrance houses! Color me "Dad"! A walk though the past. Anteas was on of the best. Loved it. Great idea and great review. My dad wore several, but the one I remember is Old Spice. Thanks you two!

[@dalyaa.8781]

Hi Bernie! Thanks!

[@bernie7772]

Sorry 'bout the spelling!

[@nocount1]

"... smells like Freshly shaved, awesome, hairy-chested Dads." ROLF!!!

[@gonzaljevic]

Does she have a channel? If not she needs one.

[@iliasZoumboulis]

Great video! I was missing Ralph Lauren Polo in the list (well, Z-14 is similar). I'm glad Kouros was number 1! I have the vintage formula, I hope you have tried that one because the newer bottle (that you showcase in the video) is unfortunately almost a different fragrance!

[@jimr880]

Great picks and a nice idea for a fragrance videos; enjoyed the team dynamics. Just a few thoughts: -Carven Vetiver (both versions) is nice, but Carven Le Vetiver is better and much more similar to the original 1950s Carven Vetiver version IMO. Try it...it's cheap (at least it was) because I picked-up a 100ml bottle on FragranceNet for about $20 back in 2015. -Aramis Havana, Brut, Old Spice, Hai Karate, Maxim's Pour Homme, Balenciago Ho Hang Club, Alfred Sung Homme, Jacques Bogart Witness and Monsieur de Givenchy (similar to Chanel Pour Monsieur) are things that come to mind when I think of colognes Dad wore. If you haven't already tried them or have them in your Scent Armory, put your nose on Maxim's Pour Homme and Balenciago Ho Hang Club...you'll thank me later. -Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet has been on my to-sniff/buy list for years...one of these days. -Chanel Pour Monsier is a great pick and definitely a gentleman's choice from this era. I've had the EDP for the past 2-3 years ( and love it) but have been wanting the EDT for a long time. Yep, I noticed the EDT is now available on chanel.com as of early December 2017. I'm waiting for my girlfriend or one of my daughters to buy it for my birthday. Yeah! -I have a 1-oz. vintage splash of Quorum and use it sparingly...may order a newer bottle, but I think I will only be disappointed. It's a gem. -I have Halston Z-14 and 1-12...can never keep them straight, until I wear them. Cheers.

[@MrOllium]

Many good fragrances you've picked...and yes, Jovan Sex Appeal is awesome :-)

[@anatolyisupov6436]

what about Old Spice Original by Shulton or Clubman Pinaud original ? but your video is great anyway.I have almost all of these fragrances. Greetings from Kazakhstan 🖐😊

[@pvalex100]

Carven Le Vetiver... I don't recall ever seeing that bottle in the house but that's exactly what he used to smell like. Now I spray it to remember him by.

[@jackmckechnie6705]

If you were a child in the 50's and 60's and lived in the central United States your dad wore Old Spice....bottles and bottles of Old Spice...

[@soldanovht]

Chanel Antaeus was reformulated and cant hold a candle to the original. Same goes for Kouros and many others.If your going old school you have to mention poco rabanne, dante, jade east, canoe, English leather, brute. Hope I spelled them right.lol

[@earldeanpowell]

home run...classic! She is so charming

[@3ofus135]

She is adorable.

[@brionb1346]

Had most of them, Equipage , Chanel Pour Homme, Vetiver my favorites , I am the ultimate dad , who would ever think that . Monsieur de Givenchy would be for the ultimate classy dad

[@cejII]

"Mary" 😂. I totally love One Man Show. I would sneak pumps from my grandpa who was very experimental. My dad is Old Spice and Brute guy. I really enjoyed the review

[@rudyspective1870]

Yeah well, Papa wore the standby Old Spice, and Brut... not quite sophisticated, lol!

[@paulhegarty8380]

I would have include Paco Rabanne Pour Homme- nice job guys !

[@tauntonengine3]

I have an original bottle of Antaeus and a newer( reformulated) version. I prefer the original. Spicyer than the reform. The original is very pricey. If you can find it today.

[@theormondes3995]

Grey flannel is horrible. I spray the bathroom with it. One man show is great! It’s a clean green soapy scent. I got a compliment wearing it yesterday. I am 30 years old :)

[@egemini618]

Dalya PLEEEEEEEEASE start a channel. Pretty please??

[@dalyaa.8781]

Aws! Thinking about it...thanks!

[@ceewng5042]

I agree :)

[@malbug]

Great list. But sorry, Kouros does smell like a urinal cake. What about Armani eau Pour Homme and Tuscany by Aramis?

[@hklmvm01]

My dad wore tabac, old spice, that stuff. I sometimes still wear the fragrances in your video 😀😀

[@brunogiambroni1422]

Habit rouge smells kind of metallic on my skin. At first I really didn’t like it but it’s growing on me

[@Fatima-fq9gr]

My dad has kouros currently and I bought him a chanel pour homme few years a gow.

[@mattjackson23]

Great video! I have an unrelated question: who/what is your intro music? Both this one and the other one you use are badass.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

It's production music made for the purposes of video production so it's not for sale or download just to listen to but thank you for liking them! :)

[@IrishFF187]

Great video, I must be an old dad because I have a few of these and a few more are on my "to get" list. Thanks.

[@tomjoneser224]

My dad will be very happy when I tell him the names of these colognes to him as I know he wore many fthese in his lifetime. Thanks for doing this.

[@asharozier4127]

My dad still wear grey flannel I love that sharp green smell

[@SassyCat2222]

Dad wore CANOE. He also liked Pierre Cardin classic fragrance.

[@RobRoyBoaz]

Sorry guys, major disagreement with you here. Aramis is king.

[@boodleboo8248]

The OCD in my heart exploded every time you sprayed inside the cap.

[@TheAzurinBoyz2012]

Me too

[@wardone8991]

You missed Pierre Cardin. For the working class dad dressed up for an occasion.

[@tomster70]

No Lagerfeld?

[@norra124]

25:00 You were gonna say "smell it" ;)

[@leftyrighty5777]

Great I needed this. I love to find out where cologne came from...

[@punkrockbebop]

My dad wore Grey Flannel and my grandpa wore Old Spice

[@juniorfeliz8497]

love this classics, It's gooood to see them in this videos gracias

[@PREPFORIT]

Quorum is still the Best. To me some of those fragrances are High school scents for me. My dad and all my friends dad's just used Basic aftershaves. Brut, aqua velva Hai Karate Maybe Canoe. Z-14 and Quorum are Total 8o's dance fragrances for me. The z 14 was NOT cheap here in Canada.

[@lifelikeweeds819]

Quorum was I think 1980. Maybe '81? And funny enough it was the same nose that did Polo Green. Puig hired him to basically make a tribute to Polo Green.

[@3ofus135]

Definitely not 1980. Fragrantica says '81, whereas Parfumo and Basenotes say '82.

[@dorf2070]

So many of my favorites om your list! I would also add Cartier Santos Concentree, Boucheron pour homme, and Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Oh yes those are good! :)

[@andersestes]

You definitely have the most creative concepts Sebastián. And love your guests

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Thank you, much appreciated! :)

[@beefcurtainz69]

Yes Italian cypress smells very similar to Z-14. Shame it got discontinued! Sooo good! I wonder what “Z-14” means... 🤔. And also is it pronounced sheep or chypre (sheepra)?

[@scottwilbur25]

Z-14 from the day was much better with its load of oakmoss!

[@beefcurtainz69]

Scott Wilbur I agree. My dad used to wear it constantly when I was growing up. He might even still have a older bottle. As soon as I smell that fragrance it reminds me of being a kid and my dad getting ready to go out, wearing this stuff.

[@alisdairmckenzie]

Nice fun video...you don't need the Dad's wore ' part, really. They are just fragrances we wore in the 80s...I'm in that age group, as I imagine the guy in this is. My very first fragrance was Tabac original when I was 14, then moved on to Pierre Cardin, Aramis 900, Van Cleef & Arpels Tsar...lol. Fragrances were so great then. Very much a statement

[@vladaface1]

This is just Amazing....the two of you work so well together

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Thank you for stopping by to watch and comment.

[@shownomercy3591]

Funny video 🤗

[@danwilson12]

Heck yeah my Dad wore Jacques Fath Green Water Pour Monsieur I would steal sprays all the time. Explains why I like green, citrus, aromatics, neroli, petitgrain, and clean brighter vetivers.

[@ersturdevant2831]

A bit esoteric of a list. Aramis...yes. givenchy...yes. no old spice, brut, chaps, hai karate, Saxon, or Aspen? Really?

[@davidcuriel3553]

I begun wearing Kouros in 1981 right when it came out. I was 21 years old, and did not show my chest hair, and had no gold chains. Me and my friends dressed GQ casual. Kouros was different than the rest. It was regarded by us as elegant, refined, classy, and very forward. The new elegance of the 80's braking away from the 70's. Hairy chests were passe`. Just look at the advertisement campaign.

[@sjohndupont7365]

it's great to see all these classics in one video. gracias

[@JohmathanBSwift]

Thinking about getting a bottle of Egoiste from 2010. XD, the sprayer on Guerlain .Yes, I have that issue with my L'Instant . I had a Van Cleef & Arpels , don't remember Tsar, or Pour Homme , but it reminded me of a soap from Yardely , and I can't remember that either , but the soap smelled like the soaps the used in funeral homes. I got rid of it, but I did like the smell. Now I wish I didn't . Wow , just checked. You can pick these up dead dirt cheap. Great list .Thank you

[@MehulPatel007]

I was watching at 1:27 & thought are the 2 of you make a good couple, & then maybe Dahlia can do ladies' ones...

[@Dreyno]

Van Cleef and Arpels smells like the most expensive soap in the world. Super classy. I wear it to formal social events. And they’ve discontinued it I believe. Can’t believe it. It’s amazing.

[@juanfigueroa-serville2465]

Next month I will be 45. I remember in the 80’s as a kid, my great grandfather wore Canoe. My uncle wore and still wears Aramis. My Dad wore English Leather aftershave and cologne. My Grandfather wore Old Spice.

[@usel11]

I have almost all of them in my collection, but where is the Old Spice? Great video!

[@juanfigueroa-serville2465]

My Dad used English Leather aftershave and the cologne in the late 70’s and 80’s as I remember as a kid growing up. My grandfather used Old Spice. My great-grandfather used Canoe and Old Spice.

[@beyonder1918]

My Dad wears Kouros and he is not hairy chested. Lol Kouros is 100% masculinity. PS: Dalya is great!

[@Xearin]

Quorum by Puig was my dad's favourite. After a shave he'd often wear Agua Brava also by Puig.

[@tobiasmober8346]

Great video as always!!!👍

[@tommymoore8390]

As a dad, I wore Tabac and Zizanie by Fragonard. Need help in finding a fragrance I wore briefly in the early 70s, Braggi by Charles Revson I think???

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

From what I have heard people say it reminds them of the original Aramis by Aramis. Try it perhaps it's similar?

[@DixieLiving]

British Sterling, Brut, Polo Green, English Leather, Old Spice, Acqua Velva -

[@MPerry-ox9qb]

My father only wore aftershave like English Leather, Brut & Old Spice. I'm probably the Dad age to most of the viewers. I wore Ralph Lauren Polo starting out in the mid 80's, then moved on to Drakkar Nior, Calvin Klein Obsession, Eternity and Escape. From there it's been one fragrances after another since the early 90's.

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

OOH wait for today's video please! :)

[@ThePerfumeGuy]

Check this video out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKSyan9slqZ6oa8

[@vaggelismakris7175]

Well you should try quince jam or quince ( spoon sweet , local recipe) in Greece !!! Also a quince based fragrance dolce Amalfi by xerjoff’s casamoratti! Which I’m waiting you to review it 😂

[@RobRoyBoaz]

You could have added Tabac and Paco Rabanne Pour Homme.

[@mattm1192]

Castoreum (I have some pure castoreum here on my perfumers desk) smells like leather, not like urine or poo poo at all. CIVET smells like urine/poo, so too does dear musk. Castoreum is a very leathery musk...very clean, smooth and warm.

[@senorfragancia838]

What great video this is Sebastian, it brings a lot of memories from my dad and my brothers (I'm the youngest of the family)Well let me mention some that also were popular back in the late 70's and the 80's Brut Old Spice 4711 Cologne Agua Brava By Antonio Puig Aspen Cologne Pierre Cardin Cologne Jovan Musk Drakkar Noir Polo Green by Ralph Lauren Chaps By Ralph Lauren Azzaro Pour Homme Zino by Davidoff Oscar de La Renta Oscar Pour Lui Obsession by Calvin Klein Cheers!
