Which Dior Fahrenheit is Better? (EDP or EDT) - Side by Side Comparison

The original EDT revolutionized male perfumery by taking a bunch of floral notes and masculinizing it to the max. The Parfum took that DNA and modernized it so a whole new generation could appreciate it.

I have both the EDT & EDP, but love the EDT the most because I love the aroma of the EDT. I have also used the older batches from about 20-22 years ago and I can confirm that the modern versions are watered down. Back in the day, you would smell it on your clothes days after. Not so these days. Dior have let us down.

One of the best reviews i have ever watched. Your review is fantastic. Congrats! I can tell you that i tried at least 50 perfumes in my life and i have never smelt such a unique and amazing perfume! Yesterday i was looking for a new perfume in a shop and i never thought about trying fahrenheit. I am 42. When i describe what i was looking for in terms of scents, the experienced seller proposed me to try it....woah woah woah amazing scent! Nothing smells like this! A nuclear bomb! I have a collection of 25 perfumes at home including very expensive niche perfumes, i can tell you i am about to forget them all!!! after 25 years of perfume collection, i have found my all time signature! The EDT is spectacular. What a authentic perfum, the uniqueness is amazing.

I have a bottle of EDT from 2022, it is terribly watered down, 4-5 sprays on the neck and it lasts for a maximum of 3-4 hours. If it weren't for the fact that I bought it in a well-known perfumery, I would think it was a fake.

[@realscentreview]

Unfortunate!

[@darkrebel7302]

I agree with you. Its not the same when it comes to concentration. Scent remains but too way diluted.

[@Mr.F0xx]

Same here, and same with CD Sauvage edt - latest batches

[@AbcDino843]

But what isn't diluted anymore? Fragrance ingredients have suffered the fate of the cleaning chemicals, as more and more of the strong ones get outlawed, we end up with weak versions of them.

[@netzbandit]

I have the EDT for several years now and I love it. After this very good comparison I will definitely try the EDP as well. Thank you!

[@nowayout8773]

I'm 58 and I bought the Fahrenheit EDT probably in 1988. I also remember a college young lady who recognized it immediately. I used it for awhile till it ran out. I went a few decades and bought it again, last October? I really like it. It's my favorite and I am proud to wear it. It is awesome. Now I am considering Habit Rouge Rouge Prive. I heard it is a leather scent, with similar qualities. I live in Germany since 2001 and it's available. I don't know what to do. I think I will stick with the Fahrenheit EDT. I know it and appreciate the scent. Grey Flannel was also interesting but Fahrenheit is MORE interesting in my opinion.

[@darkrebel7302]

I have been a great fan of Fahrenheit EDT for years and I must say that over the years, the EDT fragrance has stuck to its original scent, but the recent productions (bought mine in 2022) are way too diluted. Thinking of trying the EDP. Kouros & Polo green are still in my collection.

[@cleverclogs2244]

Advisory: typical old fart rant incoming... The projection and sillage of the original was extraordinary - it electrified the air in a 10ft radius with something like a pheromone - it was too vulgar for daytime, but was a huge component of the London evening/nightlife of the late 80's and early 90s. If you were downwind, you could smell it coming before you saw the person wearing it. There has been nothing quite like it since, and the bottle I bought about 5 years ago gets very little use as its feebleness makes me sad. It's still very nice, though, and more suited to modern fragrance etiquette and tolerances. I wonder what the chemical was that excited and drove the mandarin and violet leaf like that...

[@poppyboiXCIX]

Thanks for the video. I had the EDT version that lasted me for 7-8 years. All the EDT versions are sold out so I'm going to give the parfum edition of Farenheit a try. Love the fragrance, nothing else like it.

[@derekborow4121]

All I get is leather. Maybe I'm over simplifying it, but it's mostly leather. I own the edt, but don't know when or where I'd wear it. But it is a must own for collectors

[@realscentreview]

Leather is very detectable to me but the violet leaf is most prominent to my nose. I also seem to get more nutmeg than some people.

[@andreawilson6887]

I don’t get the violet/petrol at all either, it smells like pasta salad to me (have 4 formulations ;/)

[@nathanfarkash2689]

I'll be glad to hear your opinion on the Maison Alhambra version. Thanks!

[@realscentreview]

I have a few other reviews I'm working on now but if I get my hands on a bottle in the future I'll do a review.

[@vadorsport2722]

Will definitely be picking up the par fume soon 🙏🏾

[@realscentreview]

Excellent choice!

[@samisalim96]

Thank you very good review

[@realscentreview]

@@samisalim96 You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed!

[@Ideennot]

As far as I'm aware it also got loads of Iso E Super, which I personally also love in Terre d'Hermes or on its own in Molecule 01 even. Just got a bottle of Fahrenheit EDT and I'm loving it. Although some may disagree, I think it's perfectly fine to wear in your mid 20s and luckily it isn't as popular as it was 10-20 years ago so it stands out among the clouds of BR540, Aventus and Sauvage dupes that dominate some larger cities!

[@redartisanwolf6716]

Ty for the info o just subbed and im usimg your link to grab a 200ml. I wore all theuout the 2000s but gave up after dealing with so many fakes. Your site u listed seems very legit lets see what happens.

[@devilkilla77]

I think it would be cool if they made a version focused on the "gasoliney tinge" and make it even more polarizing 💥💨✨

[@realscentreview]

I'd buy it! Unfortunately, nothing else I've ever come across can quite scratch that itch.

[@paarthbalani3235]

I HAVE BOTH .. THE EDP IS MASTERPEICE I WEAR 6 SPRAYS EDP AND 2 EDT

[@martinkiss1301]

Great review, thank you!

[@realscentreview]

Glad it was helpful!

[@shoxie95]

Thank you for your review!

[@tigaspinoypower]

one of my favorite when i was a young adult 90s..up to this day still using it...My proper way to use is ... i sprayed once before i go to gym and when you sweat thats smells getting stronger and attracts womens lol

[@thankgodimouttahere]

I love Fahrenheit wearing on and off since the 90s but never have picked up the gasoline smell.

[@AlphaDogToo]

While I hate the term “panty dropper” and won’t even watch a video with it in the title, women absolutely loved the original 80s EDT and it made them weak. It was kind of my signature scent back then. I have no idea how reformulated the current version is because I have heeded all of the warnings and stayed away. The new Fahrenheit Le Parfum is an absolute masterpiece. They are foolish for not making it widely available. I will always try to keep it in my collection as long as I can find it.

[@jazzman1626]

I remember Fahrenheit in the Late 80s early 90s and I loved it. It got me some compliments. It was definitely the EDT and not parfum because I would never have paid the price for that. I bought the edt today and it is really horrible! It has a chemical, sort of toilet cleaner smell. I went straight to the bathroom to wash it off my arm, I couldn’t stand it. £70 down the drain. I applied another armful to see if it would smell better later, but it never altered. The parfum would have to be very much better, but there’s no way I’ll risk it.

[@AlphaDogToo]

@@jazzman1626 Fahrenheit Le Parfum is worth every dollar, pound, or euro it costs. I wore it Saturday just to remind myself of how great it is, and when I woke up Sunday morning it was still projecting. It is truly is a masterpiece. Be kind to yourself and just get it.

[@ninovaskov]

And if you by any chance get your hand on the Absolute version!!! You will understand why it’s out of stock. Different ballgame! I had it when I was in my mid 20s, oh boy… the compliments :))

[@realscentreview]

I know, it's one of the best designers ever released. I've tried it a few times, but it's so hard to find right now that I don't even like to mention it.

[@rolivarez8740]

Is there an actual EDP? They say le parfume but I've seen boxes that say EDP??

[@sir404]

I wasnt alive in 1988 sounds crazy

[@realscentreview]

Even crazier is that I was alive in 1889

[@redartisanwolf6716]

No u wasnt

[@Mysticlees]

I was thinking the same thing. Looking at him, he looks at least 36.

[@rzijl68]

Is it me or do you really sense the Sauvage dna in this... I think it smells very similar to the Sauvage EDP / Elixir in the dry down

[@realscentreview]

The first time I ever smelled Sauvage EDT (about 2016), I absolutely thought it smelled like Fahrenheit! I think the lavender/ambroxan combination in Sauvage reminded me of the gasoline accord from Fahrenheit. But through the years I've tested both of them a lot, and have been exposed to many other fragrances. Now I don't find them that similar.

[@thankgodimouttahere]

Love Suvage too, but I think they're very different.

[@journeyman6752]

Thanks for your comprehensive review & comparison!! I'm 44 and never smelt either. I've ordered a 2ml decant of the EDT, arrives next week. Next week I'll be ordering a 2ml decant of Le Parfum. If all goes well I assume I'll buy a bottle of Le Parfum, from the Dior website in Australia - can buy Eau Sauvage Parfum too - same price for 100ml. I have eau sauvage EDT (2019) and love it but want to step it up. Your accent sounds a bit Australian too. haha

[@ScentsofStyle99]

EDT!

[@realscentreview]

Excellent choice

[@jakubhladil5340]

I bought the fahrenheit this week blindly… I love it. Watched video from Real men real style and his passion for the fragrance has sold me. It is very specific and special, i know not everyone will like it but I feel like its just something different from all the eroses and sauvages…. Also bought spicebomb extreme and havent worn it one day so far I always pick the Fahrenheit. I also have versace eros flame and my mom and gf said it doesnt smell good on me so Im looking forward to feedback from fahrenheit… i already know Im going to buy this again.

[@rzijl68]

Really? Spicebomb Extreme is also VERY nice imho. But indeed, Fahrenheit is something special...

[@eulavmaballs246]

Hows the performance and longevity for the recent batches?

[@jakubhladil5340]

Since it was winter I loved the spicebomb really, its just something special really… also the farenheit is good but stopped wearing it because friend gave me some farenheit dupe and i got drunk and vomited while having it on so now it makes me gag when smell the real one lol, longevity is fine maybe 6hrs
