i agree with you...don't listen to other negative opinions...for me this so damn good especially in drydown on clothes
@bahoji Hi there! 👋 Although likes and dislikes vary from person to person, some people just seem to enjoy sharing negative opinions, especially if a fragrance comes with a low price tag. Like you, I also enjoy wearing Al Dur Al Maknoon by Lattafa, and I also agree that it smells great in drydown on clothes. By the way, many thanks for your comment 👍 it means a lot to me.
Wonderful review! Keep going
@@georgiivanov927 Thanks for your kind words! It means a lot to me.
Every is entitled to their own opinion but it doesn't necessarily mean it's facts💯
Hi there! I totally agree with you 100% and that's why I normally say and have said on many of my videos that likes and dislikes vary from person to person. Gucci Guilty Black does not agree with my nose, but I understand that others may like it. I always put every fragrance I review to the test and then I share my personal totally unbiased opinion. Thanks for your comment. I really appreciate it and I agree with it 👍
Great price point at 45 dollars for 100mg and a 150mg deodorant, smells like a man
@kkronic6709 it's certainly a good price! I totally agree with you on the smell👍
The floral notes actually make it nicer than the original imo
When you said close encounter my mind went straight to alines 😂 Thanks as always man!
@WhatsThatSmell do you mean Alien The Close Encounters? The film?! 😃 that's funny! But depending on what kind of encounter one may have in mind, and if one wears a bad scent that may end up, indeed, being an anlien encounter 👽!! 😊 Thank you for your comment 👍 It made me giggle!!
It’s funny to see. But you don’t like your grandmas perfume?
Loved her, but I certainly never enjoyed the smell of her perfume! It always made me twist my nose in despair when she gave me a long hug! Bless her! But I always loved her food though!! 🙂
I tried both in a fragrance shop, the colognes are elegant, very summery, and super long-lasting, but I went for Acqua Di Colonia Concentrate, it smells more mature and sophisticated to my nose ..........
@ROCKGRINDER12 Thanks for sharing. This kind of info is always welcome. The best judge is certainly our own nose! 👍
I always used to worry that when people talk of sea notes they meant fishy notes 😂 Lovely worl Felix, thanks
@JaneTheJubilant Hey JaneTheJubilant 👋 I, personally, don't get what the sea notes really are. I've been, recently, looking into it and reading about it. However, it still is a conundrum to me! All the explanations I've come across so far aren't specific or direct. By the way, I found quite funny how you used to think of sea notes as fishy! But I guess you were quite right to think that way!😊. Many thanks for your comment. Much appreciated 🙏
Maybe the whaffed the perfume batch on a beach to capture the scent of the sea 😂. I never understood the sea notes - unless they meant aldehydes notes?
@Mark-nh2hs Hi there! I also don't get what the sea notes are, and it really puzzles me! I am getting to the point that I may end up ignoring all the notes and just reviewing what my nose gets from the fragrances as a whole. What do you think? Anyway, thanks for your comment 👍 I honestly appreciate it.
Not ELIXIR one bit but I'm gonna keep wearing it, it's its own cologne. I got many compliments today. I told them exactly the name.
@bigmodaco Hi there! I totally agree with you, Asad, by Lattafa, is a cologne of its own. That's why I got pissed off when I heard some UA-camrs saying that Asad is a clone of Sauvage Elixir. I do like its scent and, like you, I get many compliments when I wear it. By the way, many thanks for your comment 👍
just ordered - went a bit crazy have ordered almost 20 Milton Lloyd 50ml frags today in the Amazon Sales !
Gosh! so you went on a shopping spree! But I don't criticise you. Sometimes I have to tell myself off for buying more than I had intended to! especially when shopping online. Have you bought anything new? It's been a while since I last had a look at Milton Lloyd's fragrances despite liking many of their scents. What have you ordered? if you don't mind me asking, of course! By the way, I hope you like Success by Milton Lloyd, but either way I'd love to know your opinion. I'm looking forward to hearing from you. All the best.
GREAT REVIEW MY FRIEND!!! I truly hope all is well with you today and I hope you have a beautiful rest of your day. Keep it up. You will get there.
Firstly, many thanks for watching my video review. It means a lot to me. Secondly, thank you for your kind and encouraging words. It's hard to grow on the UA-cam, but this channel is a labour of love and enthusiasm for fragrances, so I, honestly, hope that one day it'll be noticed by the algorism and it'll take off! Thirdly, please accept my sincere apologies for taking long to reply, my 9 to 5 job sometimes requires more hours of my days than a day can really give! All the very best and I wish you have a great day and weekend!

Gee whiz! that's a long list! But thanks for that. It's always good to know as a general knowledge; although I must confess that, as a fragrance enthusiast, I don't really pay much attention to whether a scent I like is or isn't a clone/dupe as I, personally, pay more attention to the smell and performance of a fragrance regardless of the brand or make. In a nutshell, if it's not a counterfeit or stolen product, and if I like its smell, so I am all for it! Nevertheless, I'm very grateful for the information you provided. Whatever enhances my knowledge is always welcome! Thank you very much. 👍
I have every man fragrance (100 ml’s) of Chanel, except the 2 Pour Monsieur (edt and edp), will have them soon. Antaeus is a boss fragrance. Onky fir winter night. The fragrance changes after half hour and then becomes even much better. Well its not for everyone, not everyone is a Boss😉
@Highwayzero Hi there!👋 thanks for your comment 👍 I gather you like Antaeus pour Homme by Chanel, and I'm glad you do, honestly. By the way, you're right. Not everyone is a boss. Some people like to smell good just for the sake and pleasure of it!! But is Antaeus pour Homme just for bosses?!🤔
Love that Fragrance! For your information...the head symbol for Versace is not Medusa...it's Eros God of Love. 😅
Hi there! I really appreciate your comment. I also love the scent of The Dreamer by Versace. Regarding Versace's logo (the head) before and after I made the fragrance review, I researched on different websites including Versace's as well as went on to read more about Medusa and the Mythological story behind this well known, but very misunderstood creature. Every where it says that the head on the Versace logo is Medusa, a Greek mythological figure. Gianni Versace chose the Medusa head as the logo for his fashion brand in 1978 because he believed it represented a bold and powerful image. Seeing who Medusa was and what really happened to her, I am to say that it makes all sense as to why Medusa's head was chosen to be Versace's logo. However, though, I'm all open for further information and to be better educated on everything, so please give me your sources and I'll be happy to read them. But for now I stand by the information I found in my own research. I truly hope to hear from you again. Once again, I truly appreciate your comment.
Hi Felix, How are you? Great review, yes it certainly is a freshie , i think its a decent scent for the price , i agree with your score , you should try Karl Lagerfeld Bois De Vetiver its nicer, i think you would like it better . I recently tried a tester of the new blue bottle Aqua di Gio Profundo on my skin and i have to say its amazing , i will definitely buy , its expensive compared to most if the budget scents i buy but instead of buying 4 budget scents i can buy the new Profundo . And i need to buy Hugo Boss Man its another scent that i love . Look forward to your next review Mr D 👍😂
Hi there! I wasn't quite sure what to expect from Bois de Yuzu, so it was a blast of of uniqueness when I first smelled it! Certainly, it shows off its citric, fresh personality! Now I have to try Bois de Vetiver - I had a quick look at its scent notes and am now wondering what fragrance they provide. Added to my list of future colognes to buy!! 🙂 Now, regarding Aqua di Gio Profundo, You're right, it's not the usual low price of a budget scent, but I feel I'll have to buy at least a mini bottle to sniff it!! 🙂. Thanks for your comment, Mr D! And as always, for the suggestions too!! Much appreciated!
Just purchased it and I love it...Nothing else I have smells like it. Class and elegant!
I totally agree with you! By the way, thanks for the comment. What I also like about this fragrance is that it has its own personality.
Will have to give this one a go 😊👍
Hi there! go for it - I hope you enjoy wearing it as much as I do. Also, I hope your nose gets all the citrusy mine does!
Guessing he’s paid by the company just more in traceable bs !
Hey there! I HONESTLY WISH YOU'RE RIGHT! but Sadly, YOU'RE TOTALLY WRONG! I got a fulltime job where I work hard to get my money which allows me to buy fragrances. BUT, hopefully, one day I'll be sponsored by a great organisation such as Particle Gravité - Thanks for watching my review. 👍
O Boticário The Blend Bourbon is the best!
Hi there! Many thanks for the suggestion! I'll search for it and see if I can get a bottle t. I also managed to get a bottle of Natura fragrance Homem, as well as O Boticario Malbec and Botica 214. I'll put the links here in case you'd like to see them. I'd love to know what you think of these two. All the very best! ua-cam.com/video/9PiJKsWrDDI/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/WKFaNChhwZE/v-deo.html
This is a Clone of Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey
Hi there! Thanks for let me know. I try and see if I can put my hands on a bottle of Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey ot at least a tester to compare both of them. In the meantime I'll take your word for it. I've already added it on my list of new fragrances to buy! Thanks for your comment. I honestly appreciate it.
@@forscentssake Nice to hear if you will compare them both. You`re welcome 🙏🏼
Good Morning Felix. Yesterday I was going to buy this scent I tried the tester and put some on my hand , wrist and clothes , I liked the initial first smell it reminded me of Versace Dreamer but here comes the But , after 20 minutes the scent changed to a smelly pissy smell 😮 like pee mixed with sweet powder😂 so I decided not to buy and purchased Yardley Gentleman Urbane which was reduced in price . I'm glad I tried the tester and didn't blind buy 😂 Best wishes Mr D 👍
Smelly pissy smell?! 🙂 like pee mixed with sweet powder?! 🙂🙂you really made me laugh with your description!! but in a very good way!! Of course our opinion defer regarding this fragrance. As you know I like it, but Mr D it's a pleasure to disagree with you! This is the first review we disagree with, and I'm sure, and hope, there'll be plenty more; this is the beauty of having our own views and opinions on things and I honestly enjoy either ways. Thanks for your honesty. It means a lot to me! By the way, I got my video review on Bois de Yuzu coming up soon. Let's see what you think about my opinion on that one! I hope all is well with you, Mr D!
@@forscentssake Hi Felix , Pleased to hear I made you laugh 😂 Looking forward to your review of Bois de Zuzu 👍 Best wishes Mr D 👋
Oh Felix I'm hoping to buy Hugo Boss Man next I tried a tester and I liked it , have you tried this scent ?
@@davidGPS95 Hey Mr D! I almost bought a bottle of Hugo Boss Man the other day, but ended up not getting it, I even don't know why! If you get it before me, let me know what you think. Hope all is well.
Hi Felix , Yesterday I purchased Urbane under £15 bargain price it's a nice freshie summer scent but Legacy does smell nicer. Mr D 👍
Hey Mr! I'm glad to hear that you like these fragrances. £15 is certainly a massive bargain! I need to sniff both again to decide which one for me smells nicer. It's always nice to get your intake on fragrances. Many thanks!
Looking good Felix! Great to get your take on such a classic
Thank you so much! Please accept my sincere apologies for taking so long to reply. My fulltime job has been taking far too much time of my days. It's always an honour to get your comments, and it's a massive pleasure to reply weather you agree with my reviews or not. So yes, Drakkar Intense is a classic, which I'm really enjoying wearing, therefore I truly recommend. Once again, many thanks, and all the very best to you.
Good Evening Felix , Thanks for reviewing Drakar intense I can see you have used a lot of the scent over the two weeks , you are always spot on with your reviews, the longevity is not the best and I have to reapply after a few hours, but it was cheap , I have a 50ml bottle and like you say it's easy to carry around with you , I put my bottle in my holdall , I agree it's scent that you can go to when you don't know what other scents to wear , I love the bottle design and colour of the juice , for me it's a comforting sweet spicy scent which I love , it's just a pity about longevity and projection, I will definitely need to buy a bigger bottle , oh and I agree with you it definitely doesn't smell like old soap 😂 Have you tried the original Drakar Noir ? It's another classic. 😊 Mr D 👋
Drakkar Noir was only a flanker of the original Drakkar. Intense has nothing to do with Noir but is an updated version of the original Drakkar.
@@wayneholmes637 I don't think I have seen the original Drakkar for sale , I understand it's very old , as Drakkar Noir its also old 1982 , i read that the new Drakkar Noir is a lot weaker compared to the original.
Drakkar Noir was only a flanker of the original Drakkar from 1972. Intense is the modern version of the original and not Noir.
Thanks so much for your comment Mr D!! I haven't yet experienced Drakkar Noir, but I've added it to my list of next fragrances to buy! I'm curious to smell it and find out what kind of fragrance it provides. I've heard others mentioning about it and can't wait to put my hands on a bottle!!
Hey. I prefer Al Rehab Dakar. It has a better longevity and performance 😉 Drakkar Intense is not a beast to me.
@minigouda2024 I agree with you, Drakkar Intense isn't a beast fragrance, especially because its performance isn't that great as I mentioned in the video, but in my personal opinion it is a 'time saver'. Despite the average performance, its smell is a very good one, which I recommend. I'll look out the fragrance you mentioned, Al Rehab Dakar, and if I get a bottle so I can judge it for myself. Thanks for mentioning it. Also, thanks for your comment. I honestly appreciate it!
@@forscentssake Thanks for responding. Since you also like classics, here is 1 hidden gem I suggest to you. It is well known in the "classics" perfume community and in France. It only costs 10-15 €. For that price a marvel of a hidden gem. -> Bourjois Masculin Equateur 😉
@@forscentssakeget the Al Rehab Dakar perfume oil and layer Drakkar Noir over it!
Hi, I'm Brazilian and you were the only person from outside Brazil that I saw making a video about Brazilian perfumes, I really liked it, I can recommend 3 great Brazilian perfumes: Phebo Isolda Cajueiro, Natura Homem Sagaz and Natura Essêncial Único
Hello Jakers2121🖐Firstly, many thanks for your comment. I, honestly, appreciate it. You see, I had a great time holidaying in Brazil that year, and I was introduced to some amazing Brazilian fragrances, many of which, certainly, deserve a space in the world stage. I got the chance to buy a few O Boticario and Natura colognes, all of which I reviewed and posted on my channel - feel free to watch them if you like, but I'll put here a link of a review of a Natura fragrance, which I put to the test whilst making my way back home from that trip to Brazil - That day when I got back in England all the trains were on strike, so that was a good time to make that video!!🙂 I'd love to know what you think. Anyway, once again, thank you ever so much for your comment, and of course, for the fragrances suggestions too. I'll definitely have a look at them. ua-cam.com/video/9PiJKsWrDDI/v-deo.html
Get your mose checked
Hey there! I gather you do like the smell of Gucci Guilty Black, and I'm glad you do. Honestly! You're not the first person to say that I should have my nose checked! I still have that same bottle, and have tried to enjoy wearing it, but still, my nose just doesn't accept it. I say my nose, but I must admit that Gucci Guilty Black is not my type of scent. Every time I sniff it, there comes that filthy smell that I mentioned in my review. But hey, who knows my sense of smell may change one day?! For now, I'll keep this fragrance away from me!! Any way, thanks for your comment; really. I appreciate you don't agree with my opinion, but that's alright. It'd be terrible if we all agreed on the same things all the time. Who knows you'll agree with me on other fragrance reviews?!
Hi Felix , How are you? I seen this scent cheap today in a local store , I was tempted to buy it , love the bottle, should I buy or avoid ? Thanks again David Mr D
@davidGPS95 Hello David GPS, best known as Mr D 😊 - I personally just bought that one bottle. I guess, I was very disappointed with the name "Potion Power" I was expecting so much more from this fragrance that I just couldn't justify myself buying another one when it's performance, let me down that much. What I, personally, would say is, if you got some spare cash in your wallet, so go for it just for the sake of sniffing it. Otherwise, use that money to buy a fragrance you really want. Don't get me wrong, the smell of Police Potion Power isn't bed at all, it's just because I felt like they cheated me with such name! But if you go for it, let me know what you think! I hope all is well with you 👍
@@forscentssake Hi Felix , Good afternoon, I went back to the shop and I tried the tester sprayed some on my wrist and clothes , I went shopping and 1 hour later I couldn't really smell the scent , it was a nice enough scent but like you say the name is misleading there is no Power 😂 very weak , i do like the design of the bottle . I decided not to buy your review was spot on . I went into Boots store and I picked up Moschino Toy Boy 100 ml for the bargain price of £25 👍 It's a nice scent almost like a spicy incense smell and it does last long on the skin . Thanks again Felix for your advice, look forward to your new reviews. Mr D 😂
@@davidGPS95 Hello Mr D! Moschino Toy Boy? No. I haven't yet experienced this one. But as soon as I read your comment I went only to have a quick look! Interesting bottle, very unusual to say the least, but I guess in a such competitive world the more daring the better! I feel soon I have that one in my hands!! 🙂 I glad my review helped. I like the bottle of Police Power Potion, but its performance lacks power! Thanks for your comment and for another suggestion. It's truly appreciated.
It is very interesting how noses are different... I absolutly can't get any floral smell out of Antaeus, let alone roses! To my nose "Zino" by Davidoff is smelling very floral, too much for me...
Hi there! this is really very interesting! I personally just make my nose stop smelling roses when I sniff Antaeus por homme by Chanel! I've been trying to like it, but the strong smell of flower I get from it put me off completely. That's why I normally say that like and dislikes very from person to person, and your comment demonstrates that perfectly! Really? you floral from Zino by Davidoff? Wow, I on the other hand like Zino and as you can imagine, I don't smell much floral notes coming out of it. By the way, I do like floral notes, but it has to be in the base notes, really base!!! Many thanks for your comment - I honestly appreciate it.
Nice review. For me this is a 'tribute' to Gucci Intense Oud. Smells almost identical. Lattafa don't really make originals, they're nearly always clones - Asad Zanzibar being one recent original they made by getting Fanny Bal in to create one, before that it's nearly all clones. This being one of their early ones, it's definitely gonna be a clone. Elite Gentleman by Avon is another that's very Gucci IO like. Mancera Aoud Exclusif is another, albeit the same price as the Gucci unlike the other two. The Gucci came out in 2016, this was 2018. Clone or not, it's a staggeringly good winter scent for £20 per 100ml. I own all the scents above so I've compared them, and they're all very much in the same scent space, just the Gucci has more rose, and the Mancera has the signature Mancera oudiness they tend to utilise to give their juice a punch. You could wear any and get roughly the same scent bubble though. The Avon one is likely the most surprising given it's the cheapest, and Avon aren't known for making anything half decent usually.
Hi there! Many thanks for your comment. I honestly enjoyed reading it and getting the names of the fragrances you mentioned, many of which I didn't know, but now I'll have a look at them including the Elite Gentleman by Avon especially because I haven't ever properly experience an Avon fragrance, I mean, I never worn one to test. Also, I can see that you know your stuff. I mean, you have these fragrances and have compared them, and built your own opinion, and experiences with these scents. You're right, Lattafa don't really make originals, but they seem to be masters in reproducing good smells! Wow! this is news to me! I didn't know that Asad Zanzibar is Lattafas first original! I had a quick look online and found out that it's just about £21, and it was launched this year, 2024!! I feel like I must try it! Its notes got me now thinking: Top notes are Lavender and Black Pepper; middle notes are Coconut Water, Iris and Salt; base notes are Vanilla and Incense. Looking at these notes I feel a bit dubious regarding its smell, but it makes me even more excited to get a bottle!!! I don't know if you've seen my review of Asad Lattafa Unisex Eau de Parfum - I'll add the link here as I'd love to know what you think, if you don't mind, of course: ua-cam.com/video/qI3Cbp0czJs/v-deo.html Once again, many thanks for your comment. It's much appreciated. 👍
@@forscentssake no worries mate. Get Zanzibar, I'm sure it'll surprise you, it's an absolute beast performance wise, just goes on and on and on. I think people knocked it as it was an Asad, and they were expecting another clone like Sauvage Elixir, but for me it surpasses that - it's just a cracking scent for £20 especially for summer. Good luck with the channel, you're enjoyable to watch and that's half the job done on UA-cam.
@@forscentssake oh, and I'll check your review on Asad. It's not my kind of scent as I don't like Sauvage Elixir to begin with, but I'll be interested to see if you get the same vibe from it that I did. I didn't dislike it, just thought it was a bit of lazy Sauvage meets PdM smell. But then it's aimed at the mainstream so it fits what Dior wanted perfectly, that stepping stone between designer and niche. Dior definitely know what they're doing as they could have released Sauvage in the Prive line and named it anything, but they stuck the Sauvage label on as they knew it'd sell like hot cakes. And it did.
Hi Felix , I like Sauvage but i dont love it , i think its because everyone wears it and everywhere you go you can smell it , i was in Paris last summer and that's all i could smell everywhere 😂 There is a new Sauvage out right now have you tried it ?
Hey David GPS! lovely to hear from you again. Listen, I totally get where you're coming from, and I have to agree with you. Sauvage has become a very recognisable smell because a large number of guys have been wearing it, and so it's become a very common scent. Although I like it's scent and have one on my shelf, I must admit that it's not my first choice if I want go out wearing a unique smell! However, though, if I don't know what to wear and I'm in a hurry, so then Sauvage saves the day, but I'm aware that I'll be just another Sauvage smelling person! 🙂. Gosh I've been with my head buried in work lately, so no, I haven't heard of the new Sauvage. I need to catch up!! 🧐
Hi Felix , How are you? I recently purchased Calvin Klein Obsession Night i like it , have you ever tried it ? Love the Blue box and dark blue bottle, its really cheap but smells expensive . 👍
Hello David GPS! I'm good, thanks! I hope you're you too or even better. Calvin Klein Obsession Night? No. This is the first time I hearing about it, but now that you've mentioned I've looked at it online and added it to my list of fragrances to buy!! I'm also thinking of buying some Bentley scents. So expect to see me reviewing a couple of Bentley smells in the coming weeks!! Hey, thanks for your message and suggestions. It's greatly appreciated. I hope you're having a great day!
Lol from the opening I thought we were in for trouble!
I'm glad that I caught your attention, but you know likes and dislikes do very from person to person, so although I do enjoyed and am enjoying wearing Cerruti 1881 I was very frank with my review as I normally try to be, totally unbiased. So I just thought better to tell at front that I could say something that would, maybe, put Mr D. off watching my videos, although I must say, Mr D is a true gentleman. By the way, Thanks for your comment and for taking of your time to watch my review. I do appreciate it. All the very best.
Did you leave out base notes on Legacy? Seems you were taken aback about pink pepper and left them out or maybe the frag has no bass notes? hmmm
Hi there! 🖐Firstly, my sincere apologies for taking so long to get back to you. This past week was rather manic at my 5-9 job, and also I've been doing some serious, well needed DIY around the house. But here I am to, first, thank you very much for watching my review of Yardley Gentleman Legacy vs Urbane - it really means a lot to me. Also, I'd like to answer your question. Yes, you're right, I did leave the base notes of Legacy out of my review. Why? I guess this becomes the main question! Well, at that time, I felt it wouldn't be that important as the base notes (which are, patchouli, vetiver and Oak moss) were kind of taken over by the top and middle notes; however, I now see that I should've mentioned them nevertheless because those notes are in the product. But every review has been a learning curve for me, and I can honestly say that this specific review was a big learning curve!! I truly hope this hasn't put you off watching my videos. By the way, I've also reviewed Yeardley Gentleman Classic - Do you think this one was any better? Let me know. Link here should you want to watch it: ua-cam.com/video/XTeMhujA708/v-deo.html
Hi Felix , Congratulations 🎉 on over 500 subs 👍 Great review on Hugo Boss original, Felix i have still to buy any Hugo Boss fragrance 😢 i always keep forgetting and buying some other scent instead, i will definitely need to check this out on a tester , its a shame the performance is weak , i recently tried a tester of Hugo Boss Orange which was nice a fresh scent with apple , vanilla and woody scent . Thanks for your review of Hugo Boss . Hope you review more Boss Fragrances. Best wishes David 👍
Hello David GPS! Thank you! little by little the family is getting bigger. It's a real labour of love as I truly enjoy reviewing fragrances. I just wish I had more time to produce many more videos every month, but I'm working hard on that regard. Now, Hugo Boss Bottled Original is, in my opinion a real sexy and attractive scent. Yes, it's a pity that its performance is so poor, but I still recommend it and will keep a bottle on my shelf. If you can put your hands on a tester do not miss the opportunity to sniff it. You mentioned Hugo Boss Orange, I haven't yet seen this one. I've also reviewed Hugo Boss Bottled Night, my very first video review actually. Also, a great fragrance. Thanks for your comment. As always, very much appreciated.
Good Evening Felix , 🌌 How are you my friend? Just watched your super review of Cerruti 1881 which i really enjoyed, im glad you enjoyed wearing it and your right it is very Masculine and great for summer 🌞 Talking about Masculine fragrance i recently picked up a stunning scent Bentley Intense , i can definitely recommend it and you can pick it up for under £35 , its lovely unusual masculine scent in a stunning silver and glass bottle. I also picked up another Joop flanker called Joop Absolute which i love , a spicy , incense scent perfect for autumn and winter . Felix always look forward to your reviews. Best wishes Mr D 😀 👍
Good evening David GPS! or should I say Mr D?! I'm glad you like the review! and of course, thanks for recommending Cerruti 1881. I've written down the name of these two fragrances you mentioned, Bentley Intense and Joop Absolute. I'll add them to my list of new scent to buy!! By the way, my apologies for taking long to get back to you, work has again demanded too much of my time and on top of that I'm doing some DIY as I'm going to put my self through the painful process of selling and moving house. Wish me good luck!! But please, feel free to send me your comments, it may take a day or two, but I'll get back to you besides, I honestly enjoy very much replying to every single comments weather they agree with my views or not! All the very best.
@@forscentssake Hi Felix , How are you? Hope your doing ok , great to hear from you again, dont worry about taking time to reply I understand your very busy working and getting your house ready to sell , wish you all the best , yes moving house is very stressful, having to get all your stuff sorted out and moving furniture etc , it's hard work , hope you are very happy when you move into your new home 🏠 Can't believe it's nearly September the year is going by so quickly, are you looking forward to wearing your Autumn Fragrances? Oh Felix here is a question for you what's your favorite Scent and why ? Best wishes Mr D David 👍😄
@@davidGPS95 Dear me! September is really just a few days away! How time flies! Hello David GPS! Thanks for your understanding regarding my delays in replying to you, and for the good wishes regarding me moving homes. Today was another DIY weekend. I'm glad I'm off work tomorrow bank holiday, hopefully I'll have some time to relax. My favourite scent? Gosh! now you really got me thinking! To me, being very honest with you, fragrances are just like music - it all depends on my mood, and where I'm going to, and who I'm going to see or going out with. But if I was to give you a more straight answer I'd say that I tend to enjoy more fragrances that have light sweetness, woody, green and herby scents. I like these scents because, to my nose, they provide freshness and masculinity especially if the wood notes are intertwined with oak moss. Not a straightforward answer, sorry! I guess, I don't have a single favourite scent. But have said that, I love very much the smell of Hugo Boss Original How about you, Mr D?! Many thanks for your comment and question, which I'll be thinking about!! 😀
@@forscentssake Hi Felix My favorite scent ? I have a few favorites, I love Acqua Di Gio the original edt , Joop Homme the original, Kouros , CK One , Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein Eternity, Cerutti 1881, Calvin Klein Obsession, CK Shock , Versace Blue Jeans . As you can see most of my favourites are old classic scents , my favorite house is Calvin Klein . I will definitely need to buy some Hugo Boss scents, I did smell one recently Boss Man which I really liked. Did you purchase Calvin Klein Obsession Night ? Thanks again Mr D 👋
はじめまして。教えてください。こちらはレッドシダーやヒノキのような匂いがするでしょうか?
Hi There! According to Google translator your message reads: "Nice to meet you. Tell me. Does this one smell like red cedar or cypress?" Hoping that the translation is correct what I can tell you is that Pino Silvestre Original does provide a woodsy fragrance and a very pleasant, fresh smell of pine which I guess would be similar to Cypress scent. And by the way, it was nice to get your question, and I hope to hear from you again. I wish you all the very best.
@@forscentssake ご返信ありがとうございます。 松やヒノキの匂いがとても好きなので、私もこの香水を購入して貴方のような紳士になれるよう努力したいと思います。 今回はご教示いただきありがとうございました(^^)
@@TakOn-wi6yr It's a pleasure to hear from you again! and thank you for your kind words. So if you like the smell of pine I do recommend Pino Silvestre Original. However, please note that likes and dislikes very from person to person, meaning that you may not like it as much as I do, or perhaps you'll like it much more than I. Either ways, I feel you should try it. I personally believe you'll truly enjoy its scent. By the way, I do believe you're a true gentleman too! Thanks for your comments.
Maybe your bottle was a fake and not an official Lattafa product? I've not got this scent as I'm quite picky lol. But I've heard there are a lot of Lattafa bad fakes out there.. Just a thought.
Hey Mark! another viewer said something similar to you. Well, I bought on Amazon as Lattafa's fragrance; however I know that fakes can appear anywhere. Perhaps I should buy from Lattafa website just to compare, but I must say that I now fear to be throwing my money in the bin!!
I've noticed if a Fragrance has similar or have a few of the same ingredients many shout Aventus or Sauvage clone yet the actual fragrance smells nothing like it lol.
Hi Mark! Firstly, I must apologise for the long time to getting back to you. I've been working like mad at my fulltime job, which is busy by nature, but these last days it's been manic! But anyway, thanks for your comment. I agree with you, some of the so-called clone fragrances don't really smell like the original one!!
I heard if you put too much oud esp synthetic it can make the fragrance smell nasty. To be honest I've never smelt real oud so I don't know if the notes are more pleasant and handle better in larger amounts.
@Mark-nh2hs Hi Mark 👋 I guess you hit the nail on the head! It can be the case here because this is certainly the worst smell I've ever come across. And it has an extremely synthetic smell. Great comment 👌 and it got me thanking. Many thanks for watching my review and for sharing your thoughts. It's honestly appreciated 🙏
@@forscentssake no problem I'm going to subscribe. Another thing I've noticed to esp with leather and tobacco scents not all but it can produce a almost Cat Urine like smell. Unless I'm more sensitive to that scent profile lol.
Nice review. Yardley Gentleman Classic is my ever time favourite smell. But I have been using gentleman classic from 2014, the body spray, roll and talcum powder. Saying this since you mentioned the fragrance came in 2019. Love from India ❤
@jablomsky Hi there! 👋 Firstly, many thanks for your comment. I do appreciate it. It's good to hear that you like Yardley Gentleman Classic as I also enjoy wearing it. I personally haven't yet worn the body sprays or the talcum powder, but I can just assume that they smell as good as the colognes. It's a pleasure to have you on board, and thank you ever so much for your support. Love from the UK ❤️
Hello,amazing review. Does it smell like fresh pine cones too(green & freshy) ?
Hi there! Firstly, many thanks for your comment, and thank you very much for your kind words. I'm glad that you like the review. Regarding the smell of Pino Silvestre Original, I can confirm that it smells fresh with hint of green in it; however though it does not give that smell of pine cones. Nevertheless, it offers a very pleasant woody scent that certainly deserves respect, and a especial place on everyone's shelf.
Hi Felix , Will you be doing any reviews of Davidoff Cool water , Hot Water and Adventure? Thanks David
Hey David GPS! You know what? this is a very good question! I got a bottle of Davidoff Cool Water in my toilet, but I guess because I used it to do a Spray off challenge I've never reviewed it, but I honestly like it and always have a bottle at home. I'll put the link of the Spray off Challenge at the end if you'd like to have a look. It's a video a bit different. Anyway, I've never come across Hot Water or Adventure. Other two to add to my list. I've been trying to put my hands on CEO man by Bellavita. I found it on Amazon but coming from abroad. A month an a half after I ordered it I had to cancel and claim the money back because the product never arrived. It was a recommendation from a viewer. Have you ever smelled it? I'll try to buy it again let's see what happens at this time! I'll start preparing a video review of Davidoff Cool Water. Once it's out let see if our views on it are similar! All the very best. As always, thanks for your support - it's much appreciated.
Hi Felix , How are you? Loved your review, today i purchased Joop Wild and i love it 👍 im a big fan of the original Joop , i cant understand why it gets so much hate 😂 As for Joop Wild i would definitely buy this again, it was not expensive and i love the design of the box and bottle with the skull. Do you like the original Joop Homme and the other Joop flankers like Jump ? Best wishes David 👍
Hello David GPS! Firstly, my sincere apologies for taking so long to reply - it's been manic at my 9 to 5 job, which by nature is absolutely busy, but please forgive me. Secondly, thank you for your kind words. It means a lot to me, but please, feel free to tell me when you don't like my reviews as I'm always looking into ways to improve! I have another video review of Joop but they are Joop Homme Ice and Joo Go. I don't have Jump. I need to look for them!! By the way, I'm finishing a review of Cerruti 1881. I bought it since you recommended it. I've tested it in many ways and now the review is soon coming up! Also, I got Drakkar Intense, and Bois De Yuzu, which, if I'm not mistaken, another recommendation of yours! all reviews already in the pipeline! 🙂 By the way, I'm happy that you like Joop Wild. It's a sweet fragrance that I love! Once again, thanks for your comment and thanks ever so much for your support.
Good review!
@alokg.4081 Thank you so much, Alok G. I am really glad that you liked it! However, if you come across any of my reviews that you don't like, please feel equally free to let me know, as your feedback is always welcome. It'll help me to improve! Many thanks once again. 👍
have purchased. nice review. its not expensive. currently on offer. needed something good value I could drown myself in on holiday. a general daily use.
@David_JA_Noble Hi David Noble! Firstly, my apologies for taking so long to get back to you. Secondly, many thanks for your comment. I honestly appreciate it. I am glad you liked this review. I also enjoy wearing Yardley Gentleman Classic, and you're right, it's not expensive. I'm also glad that you like its scent and I hope you get its full longevity. Once again, thank you for your comment, and I truly hope to hear from you again whether you agree or disagree with my reviews 😉
@@forscentssake so I actually bought an additional splash on as well: blue jeans by Versace (less than £20). Also really nice. maybe worth a look
@@David_JA_Noble £20 for Versace Blue Jeans? Very good price! I got a little bottle a while ago and personally liked it very much, so much so that I got another one soon after the first bottle got empty! I made a little video review, and now I wonder whether you agree with my opinion or not. Either way it'd be lovely to know what your personal experience has been like with Blue Jeans. I'm adding the video link below in case you'd like to have a look. Hopefully the link will work. If not you can find it on my channel. ua-cam.com/video/POKf5T7wJ-o/v-deo.html Some people say that it's too sweet for them. What do you think?
@@forscentssake yep , currently widely available sub £20
Have you tried bright peach?
@peterwitting72 Hi Peter Witting! No, I haven't yet, but now that you mentioned, I am wondering what it smells is like, and I'll search for it and get one!
@forscentssake Nice, will wait for your review. I have had it for a couple of weeks now. And have eyes out for neroli
Bought it and its ready for pickup, hope it lives up to the hype
@@peterwitting72 Hi Peter Witting! I truly hope you enjoy it. Please let me know what you think. Thanks for your support. I'm honoured to have you on board.
@forscentssake I am a bit disappointed. It has the same scent as paco raban xs or extremely close for the the first 3-4 hours, but then the base comes out and I really enjoy that. Thank you for you review
@peterwitting72, I'm sorry to hear that Asad by Lattafa was a bit of a disappointment. But it is nice to know that after a while you could enjoy it more. Fragrances are a funny thing, aren't they?! It's not just a case of praying once, and we love or hate straightaway. Sometimes, we need time to find out whether a specific scent is really for us or not. Thanks for sharing your experience. The more I hear other people's experience, the more I learn about fragrances and how smells play a massive part in our lives and somewhat tell a bit about who we are in regards to our likes and dislikes. Once again, many thanks. 👍
