They absolutely have been amazing releases. The only one that hasnt realled wowed me is the new gucci one. But im sure I'll begin to like it more over time
I've currently purchased approximately 30 fragrances in the last two months. My current top 5 picks: 1. Invictus Victory Elixir 2. Azzaro The Most Wanted 3. Replica By The Fireplace 4. JPG Le Male La Parfum 5. Bvlgari Man In Black Honorable mentions: Spicebomb Night Vision, Rasasi Hawas and Burberry Hero
I just tried lucky again yesterday and im in love with it now. When i tried it 1st, I got a heavy tobacco scent. Yesterday, it was the most beautiful thing I've smelled in a while.
130 bottles? That's more than me and I thought I bought a lot. I'm trying my very best to not buy anything for a long time. The Boss Elixir blew me away just like you.
@@ChadSecrets I would like you to review the play boy ibiza I know it doesn't last but I love the smell nobody has talk about it I think it's a hidden gem
Tom Ford: noir extreme parfum, Tobacco Vanille, Tobacco Oud, Fucking Fabulous Creed: Tobacco millisime and virgin island water Clones: Zimaya Sharaf blend, not only intense, Orientica Royal blue and amber rouge These were my favorites
I just recently bought myself 3 bottles Bleu de Chanel edt 150ml Paco rabanne invictus platinum and Invictus Victory I’m so happy with all 3 . Love the videos keep up the great work 👍👍👍
L’Homme Ideal EDP has been my go to. It’s a massive compliment getter for me. Unfortunately it might be discontinued in the US (no longer on Guerlain’s website), so I picked up the L’intense and my God, I love the chili pepper note that replaces the cherry. Such an amazing scent.
Mine are 5 best buys even thought i didnt buy much 1-Arabian oud taraf oh god ... absolutly stunnig 2-Shaghaf Oud Azraq 3-arabian oud Amiri ( if one do not own it ,u miss a lot a lot friend and i mark my words) 4-Jpg le male elixir 5-Lattafa Vintage radio ( inition paragon)
I had a similar experience with le male elixir, that stuff is really potent lol My top 5 in no order: Encre noire Terre dhermes Gucci intense oud Kilian Black Phantom Acqua di parma leather
Acqua Di Gio Profumo is arguably my favorite fragrance of all time. I got a back up bottle about 3 months ago so i have 2 nearly full 125ml bottles. Im set for at least the next 10 years 😅😅
Personally, i have a screwcap and magnetic cedrat boise bottle. I sprayed both on paper and noticed the screwcap variant lasted about 2 hours longer. Also the scent profile i noticed is different, screwcap is less fresh but is more heavy on the smoky woody leathery nature while magnetic is much more fresh and citrusy.
First time seeing your channel. Nice format/editing and I appreciate your enthusiasm for fragrances. I'll be watching more. Just a heads up, Macy's here in Hawaii has One mIllion Lucky in stock.
Hi Chad, have you tried any of the chopard fragrances? I just got Amber Malaki in the mail, and I think it's really nice. The perfomance isn't extreme, but it's more of a sensual soft frangrance anyway. Here in Europe I could get a 80 ml for 40,40 EUR, which is an insane bargain for a well known brand. Love your video's and keep up the work!
I just ordered Cedrat boise!! I’m usually a guy that doesn’t like typical guy scents so I keep resisting the urge to fight the hype monster of Cedrat. I have Sicily by mancera (I have a bunch of mancera) and Sicily has almost the same top notes as Cedrat (in smell). So when I finally smelled it in person to try I was pleasantly surprised! How was the performance for you?
I actually have a full review where i go pretty in-depth on that one. I quite like it, and it actually got stronger over time. It is a very typical guy scent though so i would recommend sampling if you can first!
@@ChadSecrets 9Pm or Detour Noir which one would you suggest, I am from India so it is pretty much summer throughout.I would be wearing it for all occasions from college to mundane activities so kindly suggest me which has good performance,sillage and longevity
I’m curious about your thoughts about Aqua di Gio Parfum and Acqua di gio Profumo. I know you mentioned it in the video but I’m really excited to hear your thoughts. Please!!! 🙏🏻 😂 Merry Christmas
Got my Mancera cedrat boise and intense cedrat boise. For me it is very hyped. Yes it is strong. But it is really like burned parfume mixed with lemons for me? 😢 So dissapointed :( Guys do not blind buy it
Yeah dont blind buy any fragrance for that matter because its all very subjective. It must be skin chemistry with those because i just get slight smokiness from cedrat boise
I try to spray it on my skin and t-shirt. Let my t-shirt dry down for 10 hours. It is better yes. But not really worth the hype. Original boise is better than intense version. The intense version just blow your nose of even after 10 hours. Lol. These was my first niche parfume. And last i think. 😢
Cant trust these reviewers anymore cuz they are all bought out to say what's the best and only care if u use their discount codes to help them gain money. Just go searching for yourself and find what u like.
I understand your distrust in the reviewing community. That's why i started my channel to bring honesty to the space. I would never do that to my viewers!
I started collecting this year(october) so all are new to me. The ones i like the most are, not in order: Versace Dylan Blue, TF Tobacco Vanilla, PDM Percival, Le Male Le Parfum, Le Male Elixir, Versace Eros Flame, Versace Eros Parfum, Al haramain L'aventure intense, Dior Sauvage EDT
I Love 1 million lucky so much. Its my second favourite 1 million after Prive. I always found it funny that 1 million lucky is by far more of a Stronger with you fragrance, than it is a 1 million.
@@ChadSecrets Also, I noticed you got the newer batch where the bottle is dark instead of clear. How would you rate it’s performance overall? I really like the smell but they only have the new batches available in my area so I’m hesitant to pull the trigger.
I notice that you have done alot of review on the versace frangrance but not the og pour homme , i myself havent tried it cause i've been using the og acqua di giò for the longest time , i i think its time for some changes
Its actually quite nice. i am working on a review for it currently! Ill be releasing eros flame then that shortly after. The OG Acqua di gio is a good one!
@@ChadSecrets oooh cant wait to hear your thoughts on it , how would you compare versace pour homme to the one you've already reviewed d&g light blue eau intense , which one is better in the super high heat condition? Something like humid over 33°C high heat summer
My favourite fragrances purchased for 2023 comprise of Mancera Intense Cedrat Boise, Dior Sauvage Elixir, Burberry Hero EDP, and Dior Homme Original. I think I purchased about 15 fragrances this year with 1 coming in a few days.
Chad thank you for another 🔥🔥🔥🔥video. To answer your question I have two purchases this year and they are Versace Dylan Blue and Valentino Uomo Born in Roma. For next year I have my eyes on HUGO BOSS (mainly thanks to you) Hugo Boss Bottled Elixir and Boss Bottled Night. 💪 I wish you Merry Christmas and keep up the good work.
Damn, I was surprised my local retailer had Lucky in stock. I tried it and it smelled ok. Nothing amazing. Ended up buying the Elixir, which I’m very happy with, but now that I know it’s discontinued and multiple ppl are clamoring that they didn’t like the profile at first sniff only to fall in love with it, I guess I gotta go back and just spray a full wearing and walk around the mall
At first, i thought it was okay. Then when i sat with it on my skin and experienced it, i started to like it a lot. It took abit but now i cant stop wesring it, especially this time of year. The Elixir is also quite nice though 👌
I tried both Jazz Club and By The Fireplace in store and was very conflicted. If I wore Jazz Club I’d have to make sure I didn’t need to smell sober because that was a straight bar smell. By the fireplace I didn’t get much off the strip. Maybe I should go back and spray both on my skin to see if the dry down and skin scent is significantly different.
I do really like both but i find jazz club a lot more situational and very grown. By the fireplace really draws me in because its exactly what the name says with added sweetness. I love wearing it and it usually gets me positive feedback. I recommend trying on skin 😁
Solid list. I like that 1 million lucky; wasn’t a big fan of the boss bottled elixir. My favorite pickup this yr is either Sauvage elixir or Dior Homme Sport 2022
@@ChadSecrets idk I might have to try it again. I was sampling a few different fragrances at sephora at the time. My nose may have been slightly fatigued and so the rice vibe is all I picked up 🤷♂️

Getting compliments on scents you actually like is one of the best feelings ever
It absolutely is. Makes the fragrance even better! 😁
The Elixirs released this year have been absolutely amazing, especially the three mentioned in the video

Hi dude, By the fireplace is great, but try ameer al oudh intense oudh, its a clone for like 25$, smells pretty similiar. Nice list tho
Okay ill definetly get it and compare it. Thanks for the suggestion!
For me its either been ysl myslf or ysl le parum those r prolly my favorite purchases of this year love them
I need to give another chance to YSL Myslf!
I had a similar experience with le male elixir, that stuff is really potent lol
My top 5 in no order:
Encre noire
Terre dhermes
Gucci intense oud
Kilian Black Phantom
Acqua di parma leather
Those are great purchases. I see you have good taste and a specific style!
Acqua Di Gio Profumo is arguably my favorite fragrance of all time. I got a back up bottle about 3 months ago so i have 2 nearly full 125ml bottles. Im set for at least the next 10 years 😅😅
Absolutely but you cant go wrong with this one. Good thinking on the backup bottles!
Make a video on how you apply your fragrances

Really eh. Yeah ill have to do a direct comparison and see for myself. I have only worn them seperate
@@ChadSecrets maybe it's my head just wanting to believe that idk
You’re not the first to report this change!
I was bored today so sprayed, le parfum, le male, Dior elixir, lucky, ombré leather and Og 1 million 😂😂
Those are some very good fragrances right there!
@@ChadSecrets the perfect mix

Merry Christmas!!
Boss elixer, for me
Such an amazing fragrance
I do get editing Johnny Harris-style....
Sometimes it has to be done :)
Jpg elixir & pafume
Dior fahrenheit perfume,intense, original, eau savacologne & pafume.
Chanel allure extrem, platinum egoiste & allure original
Stronger with you absolutely & leather
Mencera cedrat boise
Tomford ombre leather
Now those are some very good fragrances!!
😂😂 Magnificent Secretion is crazy 😅
Hahah i snuck that one in there
Got my Mancera cedrat boise and intense cedrat boise.
For me it is very hyped. Yes it is strong. But it is really like burned parfume mixed with lemons for me? 😢 So dissapointed :(
Guys do not blind buy it
Yeah dont blind buy any fragrance for that matter because its all very subjective. It must be skin chemistry with those because i just get slight smokiness from cedrat boise
I have both & you need to let them macerate/sit for a bit before it opens up. New it's very 1 dimensional!
I try to spray it on my skin and t-shirt.
Let my t-shirt dry down for 10 hours. It is better yes. But not really worth the hype. Original boise is better than intense version.
The intense version just blow your nose of even after 10 hours. Lol. These was my first niche parfume. And last i think. 😢
130 bottles of you’re the best smelling boy in the word 😮
Finally, a profile picture!!
