If the original is 3-4 times the price of a clone and there is only minor difference that no one would notice, I see no reason to piss 3-4 times on the original. A lot of folks are more interested in clones because there are some really great ones available.
You have never let me down with your recommendations my man! Thank you! 9 pm is outstanding! I'll be getting club de Nuit preciuox 1 soon! Keep up the hard work Ross!
You got me curious now...... Fragrantica says : " Not universally liked"....... Who the fook wants to be " Universally liked"...????? 😎 Will definitively look into this one !!!!!
Great content as always man. SOTD ADG parfum 2023 edition, got me a compliment at the dentist this morning. Every time I wear this fragrance I get compliments, it's beast mode juice! Haven't sniffed the 2024 reformulation yet, hopefully soon. Rasasi Hawas is hopefully coming this week along with LengLing Acqua Tempesta #3.
Hey Ross, Eventually you get me every time. Although this time only half way. I said no more clones. If you really want it save up for the OG. Just broke my rule as keep hearing your glowing review on Rifaaqat. I bought a 3ml sample for £6.50. I can take that hit rather than a full bottle. You also advise to sample first. I have a feeling I may end up with a full bottle of Babycat for Christmas lol 😂.
I've been sitting on Milano Prive, Rifaaqat and Nazih Silver in my cart. Been looking forward to some fall fragences, your recommendations are always good.
Rifaaqat can be terrible on first wear. you get plasticky dolls smell but on the second wear it turned magical. we will see what will happen on 3rd wear
Great great video thanks again brother. I have a question. Have you smelled ishq al shuyukh gold? If yes compare to Rifaqaat not gonna say which one is closer but which of these has the vanilla scent stronger?
Lattafa Atlas was definitely my favorite summer frag pick up this year. Loud af! Only need 3 sprays. Major compliments... Think I paid $22 for it. BONKERRRRZ😳‼️
I bought rifaaqat adorn last week. Not my type. Smelled like vic's vapor rub with the old early 90's glass car musk to me. Hopefully after letting it sit for about a month it will smell less like a menthol cough drop lol. I did get lataffa amethyst, and I love that one.
Finally someone who recommended a clone of my favorite fall/winter fragrance. I loved Boss Bottled Intense EDP I was so disappointed when they decided to discontinue it. Thank you! Now I just have to find my favorite summer fragrance Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Forever. If you have any recommendations I am all ears.
I was checking out Fragrance Buy and i was looking at Paris Corner Milano Prive Pendora because it interested me and boom you talked about it on this video while I was watching so now I gotta get it lol to funny Thanks for another great video Ross
Regarding Megamare, I own both og and Lattafa Atlas. Lattafa did nail it its about 90% but Megamare lasts 2-3 days on my skin. I gotta say for a fresh scent you will never see any fragrance that performs like Megamare.
Afnan 9 PM is such a great smelling perfume. I Tried JPG Ultra Make. & Costed Me Around 17K In Indian Rupees Which Is Costly. But Afnan Makes Life Easy By Coming Into The Market For 3K
Scentual Obsessions King Andy is straight fire! I have both that one and their 2020 formulation. If I didn't already own Bal D'Afrique I'd definitely pick up Vibrant Vetiver Delight. I saw Dedrick Hicks Jr. Review it and had good things to say about it. Still haven't sampled Aventus Absolu yet but plan to get a sample and if I like it, I'll be going for CDN Precieux.
Interesting what you say about 9PM, I have a 10ml of Ultra Male and I think 9PM smells like just the dry down and Ultra Male has more going on. Just like the Le Parfum OG is so much better than the clones. I'm taking your recommendation in Veteran Oud, I loved SWY Oud and I hope it gives me the same experience as the OG.
Good stuff too many people hear you say the OG’s are always better than the clone and they take it too literally. there’s always exceptions to the rule.
Absolutely. Majority of the time, yeah, go for the original for the best experience. However, there are definitely some clones that are more than good enough
The dupes are nice I keep telling myself just buy a decant if I wanna try different things I don't need everything although that would be nice 😂😂😂 wearing le male le le parfum today 🔥🔥🔥
I hope all is well! Are Maison D'abba Silent Knight, Guerlain L'homme Ideal Extreme, & King Andy redundant? The note breakdowns for each fragrance seem alike, and I don't want scents that smell too much alike. As I mentioned yesterday I rock with plum fragrances. I want to add a few more to my cool weather arsenal! I would appreciate any advice! I can hardly wait for Silent Knight to arrive. 🍻
You want Vetiver that is NOTHING BUT FEELS...said this before...ya GOTTA at least SAMPLE Guerlain Vetiver EDT my friend! Oh, and I'm wearing Rochas L'homme as my SOTD.
First of all, let me just say I love a good clone.I don't give a What! Second, The new Tom Ford eau d'ombre leather... may scratch the itch for a lot of baby cat lovers out there... I highly recommend you all get your nose on that
0:49 I dont know how Babycat smells but i bought Rifaakat and there is something choking or camphor-like about it, is it me or that is actually part of its scent profile.
Oh my goodness! I loooooove Rifaqaat and purchased a backup bottle. I killed my first bottle. I also purchased Vanilla Baby from DUA that smells just like Rifaqaat and I purchased 4 of them. I’m addicted! 🤎🙌🏽☺️
Is it me or is it when I first sprayed Rifaaqat, it smells like burnt rubber or something? Is it from the pepper note? Though, the drydown is super delicious for me. It has been sitting for almost 2 weeks now.
I got the clone of Angel share by latafa and found it smelt so much like alcohol I can never wear it. Do these have that issues because most people love the latafa clone.
people are irational. people will say i want original because i am original, its an ego insult to wear fake, makes the person fake. thank god i dont think like that and enjoy everything. from fragrance world to xerjoff
My dumb ass got taken when I tried buying 9pm cause I didn't look close and I bought a knock off of the clone it was something called Diviloo 9pm same exact bottle and everything looks identical I was so pissed I have no idea if its even close to afnan 9pm its extremely weak it smells OK but I'm still so curious to how good the Afnan is
No one reviews like you do Ross. The way that you describe the fragrances is so on point! C'ant get enough of them videos man
😂

Triumph of Bacchus just popped up on frag by. Totally just purchased a 30 ml of it. Perfect 😃
Great statement "Its hiw you feel what you want to wear for perfume that day." TOTALLY AGREE 👍🏼
Great video. I can certainly confirm the quality of the ones I own, including Rifaaqat, Nazih Silver, Milano Prive, Atlas, and 9pm.
If I’m having a bad day or get the blues gucci guilty absolute is what cheers me up and gets me feeling like a lumberjack in no time!
A fragrance that only real men like and enjoy
You got me curious now......
Fragrantica says : " Not universally liked".......
Who the fook wants to be " Universally liked"...????? 😎
Will definitively look into this one !!!!!
@@billgallagher2450😆
Just came across your channel sir. Very impressed. Thanks for putting me on to these clones. Just purchased me some Atlas
Ross, I'll see you on Sportsdesk Live tonight. I'm glad you mentioned it on your livestream yesterday or I wouldn't have known.
What i like about your videos is that honesty that projects louder than Lattafa Khamrah 😃
Thanks, Ross. Appreciate you and glad you are enjoying King Andy.

Amazing Review ❤ Love the concept as well! Keep them coming ROSS 😎
Thanx for these recomendations!!
Good video today and I have some of them great bargain prices sotd L ‘ Homme Rochas edt 👍💯🔥
Rifaaqat is awesome. To me it smells a little thicker than Babycat, but otherwise spot on!

Great job as usual Ross, SOTD DUMONT TRESADOR MELODIA
Preciate you Ross🤙🏿🤙🏿 "THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
❤❤ nice review 👍🏽
Just bought Lattafa Ramz Silver for $16.99 at Burlington. It’s an Ultramale clone that often gets compared to 9pm. Ross, have you smelled it?
I'm waiting for the price of Atlas to come down in the UK. It's GBP 55 to 100 at present!
Me too 😂
Vibrant vetiver is good but it doesn’t last at all unless you HEAVY spray
Lataffa Jasoor is that sxxx! I compared to the real Valentino and damn! Very close with great projection.
Hey Ross! Dua is coming out with a Acqua Essenziale Blu clone! Hoping to see your review on it!
It's like $20 man, there's no need for a clone
It's gonna be a $11 clone retail lol
@@Wavy_Potts I know but I know how much he likes the scent. Since it’s gonna be an extrait I was interested in if it was a deeper fragrance overall
I'm not interested. The original is cheap. Such an unnecessary clone
The dupes are nice I keep telling myself just buy a decant if I wanna try different things I don't need everything although that would be nice 😂😂😂 wearing le male le le parfum today 🔥🔥🔥
I bought Vibrant Vetiver Delight after sampling. I was so impressed that I bought the Orange Neroli one as well. Awesome warm weather scents.

which is more worth buying in $50? CDNIM Oud Or Prexious 1?
What about aether for pdm greenly or midori which is another dupe ...I haven't smelled the clones but would they be worth it?
0:49 I dont know how Babycat smells but i bought Rifaakat and there is something choking or camphor-like about it, is it me or that is actually part of its scent profile.
Is the smell of club de nuit precious different enough from club de nuit intense man EDP....to justify owning both?
What's the boss bottled intense other alternative panache, whatever, does anyone know? Great list by the way...hello all the way from london, uk.
Gotta get my hands on the Scentual Obsessions, I’m woefully late to the game there
Everything is temporary but 9pm is permanent ♥♥
I already have CDNIM, it’s okay to me. Would buying Preciuex be redundant? Is it worth getting?
they smell different
@@noayraol1768CDNIM is the same as Afnan Supremacy not only intense? Because I have the last one...
MILANO PRIVÉE FOR THE PRICE, ITS A BANGER.
❤❤❤ I love my king Andy
Oh my goodness! I loooooove Rifaqaat and purchased a backup bottle. I killed my first bottle. I also purchased Vanilla Baby from DUA that smells just like Rifaqaat and I purchased 4 of them. I’m addicted! 🤎🙌🏽☺️
Amazing and 🔥 clones love the video Ross stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
If you can only buy two which ones would you pick?
My favorite scent is Bvlgari Tygar or any great dupe of it.
I got rifaaqat hoping I’d like it but all I get is the smell of the inside of a Halloween mask. 😂 maybe it needs to macerate
is that right that afnan 9pm new batches is not good at performance and projection ?
@@blackfenix6987 I'm not in the U.S but people have been talking about the newer batches not having the same performance.
I'd stick to nazih silver it's actually really good considering it's a clone 👍🏼
Thanks as always! Super video!
Ross the boss💯
Don’t correct a person from Louisiana on how to say words that end with “sauce” 😂
Alexandria fragrances has a Andy Warhol clone, its 🔥... its call Fame 15
Bro....suggest a beautiful Rose fragrance for women's.......
Where did you get Precieux I? Shipping from their UAE shop would be more expensive than Creed in my case.
Liquid bruney baby
Locked in!!!
How much did you get your 75 ml for??
Do you know a good clone of D&B the one?
I just bought Lattafa Pride: Eternal Oud at my local Burlington for $34.99 Bucks!👍 However, it no longer comes with the Dome Display!👎
Is their any clones for hypnotizing fire by The Harmonist that you would recommend?
I wore 9pm last week it was about 85°
Is it me or is it when I first sprayed Rifaaqat, it smells like burnt rubber or something? Is it from the pepper note? Though, the drydown is super delicious for me. It has been sitting for almost 2 weeks now.
I'm sorry but Armaf has Creed's number. Every time Creed releases a frag, Armaf is all over it, for a fraction of the price and better longevity.
@@keepcalm1224 not a phone number 🤣🤣🤣
I got Rifaaqat off of your recommendation and DAMN, scent is Magnificent. Thx brotha.
I got the clone of Angel share by latafa and found it smelt so much like alcohol I can never wear it. Do these have that issues because most people love the latafa clone.
I love my atlas 12 hours plus in my skin
The more I watch people like Ross talk about Clones, the more I go: "Yeah, we need them Clones"! 😅

I’ll always buy a clone or “inspired” fragrance over the original when the OG is overly expensive, limited wearability or difficult to find.
