[@Malthayy]

Great job, Manny! That was very accurate. I really wish YSL would go higher on the list, but I admit that their exclusive line is basically the only thing that keeps them interesting at the moment. And my God, if JV started making (legit) edp concentrations, I'd be in heaven.

[@CascadeScents]

If JV made anything like Chanel EdP concentrations, they'd still be kinda wack though, haha. Thank you so much for your feedback! =]

[@TheBTEAMwins]

This is actually a really cool video, props on u for diving in and rattling some cages. Everyone is too hesitant to give their REAL thoughts on brands. Like they gonna lose subs or something...it’s weird

[@CascadeScents]

I'm a part of x amount of other lifestyle communities, but fragrance is the only one where I feel like the majority of people are truly afraid to speak their mind publicly for whatever reason. I'm trying to change that attitude with this kinda content here. Thank you for the kind words! =]

@@CascadeScents Yeah, is good. I dunno if you wanted to include Guerlain in such a tier next time? It's not designer per se, but the prices are there or thereabouts.

[@MP-ej9pw]

Good video. It should help many when they want to try a house. I own none of CH regular lines, but I have sampled 5 and bought 2 from their Confidential line. Have you tried any of those? Curious to hear your take if you have.

[@CascadeScents]

I need to try the Confidential stuff myself, ugh. Thank you so much! =]

Nice video Many. It is your list, of course, and I might disagree with certain choices, but my biggest surprise is complete lack of Guerlain.

I didn't feel like differentiating between what was niche and designer from Guerlain, so that was my reason for omitting them completely. Thank you as always, my friend. =]

[@trublu72lewis77]

What a great idea and well executed!! I'd switch YSL and Narciso Rodriguez, stick Chanel and CD in S tier. Comme de Garcons and Ermenegildo Zegna is very surprising but i don't know a lot about them. Hermes i find overrated and i agree TF is in a class of it's own. Although could TF be considered mainly niche? Again loved this vid!!

[@shoesnob7987]

I agree with your assessment; but, I do think Wanted by Night is solid enough to put Azzaro in the D column.

[@CascadeScents]

Thank you so much! =] Tom Ford is all designer to me, TBH. Just because his quality is typically on another level, doesn't mean he isn't a clothing designer for me. So I went with a more literal position for words like designer or niche. =]

@@CascadeScentsTom Ford is certainly in a different league regardless if it is considered niche or designer.

[@andreidanielpetre]

Great idea and a very good list imo. Sadly incomplete... Do you consider Guerlain and Cartier niche? Lalique is also technically niche considering it's not designing clothes and shoes...

[@CascadeScents]

I said it in the video. Lalique is a glassware company. However, they also dabble in jewelry. Cartier for me is the ultimate luxury goods company, as they are respected in jewelry, horology, eyewear, and to a certain extent, fragrance. And Guerlain is predominantly niche because perfumery is still their primary intention, despite their affordable options, and dabbling in other circles like beauty and skincare. Like, I didn't want to list them here and feel like having to distinguish what was niche and what wasn't within the brand. Thanks for stopping by. =]

[@TheFragranceApprentice]

Bruh, that hate towards Only the Brave, I felt the Holy Ghost! I really have a fondness for OTB is because it was one of my first Frags, forgive I knew not what I was doing. This is an amazing Fragrance video, in depth, solid and entertaining, one of the GOAT concepts in the YT Fragrance community. Thanks so much, I enjoyed the whole damn thing!

Could you organize some sort of voting by the viewers and see what happens, e.g. each day you do a quick video of a brand (or more) and viewers comment with their tier?

[@king_aventus9105]

I would switch margiela and Hermès mainly because the only frag I would consider buying from them is eau tres fraiche but aside from that most of Hermès line up has been disappointing to me Btw is it even possible to make a niche version of this list without getting flamed that you only include the more popular brands?

Thanks for the suggestion, fam! Niche coming soon, yes! =]

Ouhhh I've seen some Versace about 15€/100mL. Maybe I'm wrong but I dare say they can be good branded fragrances for beginners?

Versace has good fragrances for the most part, TBH. They aren't "challenging" in profile, so beginners may be more susceptible to enjoying them I guess. Enjoy! =]
