🐐’d for this comment!!!
thank you sir ❤
🎉 wow thank you very much
tks bro
Ur so real for this
Please do more buying guides like this😁
Love Carlisle. I’m new to the fragrance world so I won’t act like I know about notes, but it is very very similar to the scents of a surf shop I used to go to that’s no longer around. Leather sandals, surf wax, something to cover up the smell of weed, little bit of an edge. Perfect.
Loveeeee this series! I wish there's an Amouage one because I definitely can't afford to buy every sample from them
Galloway is my fav summer scent because its different from the others. Realy good💯
One word when it comes to PDM:
Discounters, Discounters and Discounters.
You missed Hamdani, incense bomb; Kuhuyan, animalic leather; and Nisean, the patchouli centered fragrance. All are unique smoky winter scents and three of my favorites from the brand.
What discounters do you mean?

Thanks!
Loving these buying guides!
the intro was hilarious! I love it! good work!
Agree. For me, Pegasus Exclusiff, Carlisle and Layton are the best from this house (from what I've tried)
Great video Omar! I hope to see the "I Bought Every Xerjoff Fragrance So You Don't Have To!" video someday. Cheers from Brazil!
My wife bought me a 75ml Percival for my birthday and it’s a beautiful fragrance.
Yeeessss, I very love PdM for mens and i have Kalan, Carlisle, Herod , Pegasus Exclusif and Oajan . And I use all of them with pleasures
Good review. Never tried any of these, now I really want to get a Layton parfume 😊
Good video!! Been waiting for this one!
I think u missed Akaster..not one of the most famous ones but was interested to hear ur take since it’s a rose oud scent
My fav without a doubt is Carlisle followed by Pegasus….and am currently liking Godolphin more and more (weather I suppose)
For Herod, I feel Issey Miyake Pulse of the night does a much better job…not as smooth but WAY MORE defined and pronounced
I love the smell of Herod. But since I live in a tropical country, this limited to temperature controlled environment.
Kuhuyan is a really nice one with Fahrenheit vibes with heliotrope. Akaster is a slept on PDM nice Oud/Rose fragrance. Nisean is supposed to be very nice rose/patchouli fragrance, but I’ve never smelled it (Sebastian (the perfume guy) is big on Nisean).
Yes Akaster is another one that's nice.
Nisean is a gem, a 10/10, kuhuyan is really good a must say a 9/10 and Akaster is another underrated. I love almost everything on that Brand, 'cept byerley and lippizan, those are awful to my eyes
@@thefirstpumpkin2571 Yeah, Byerly was rough. Hamdani is probably the worst I’ve smelled from PDM, it smells like an actual horse barn. Just snagged Godolphin finally, Nisean is next.
@@DHolmes419 Lol, hamdani it does smells like a wet horse, but it's kinda intriguing, taking in mind that it's like "a piece of art" too challenging to wear, but it's in the same vein as "Bat" by zoologist, or Figment Man by Amouage, something made for appreciation only. In the other hand byerley it seems to be IMO a bad fragrance just like that,
Respect my guy
For buying all those!!
I don't understand the hate on kalan...Kalan is my favorite of the house..then herod close second
My Layton became a dust collector - somehow I feel it's overrated and not all that unique; there are so many more interesting scents out there that fulfil that role. Even Layton Exclusif is better.
Sedley seems quite overpriced for that simplistic profile of a freshie. Somehow Mont Blanc Legend EDP seems to be more interesting.
Thanks for another comprehensive coverage, Omar.
Galloway was a love at 1st sniff
Thanks for spending the time to put this together, i'm sure it was a lot of work. I really appreciate the effort you invest on your site, I aways come away with valuable information!
Great video! 👍
I blind bought Layton and feel a bit underwhelmed with the smell. I feel like I'm going to give it a chance and try it out for a week or two but in all honesty feel likes it's not for me.
Should've gone with Herod.
Great job thank you so much. 👏👏👏👏
My pleasure 😊
Great video.
Kalan actually copied the basic DNA of of 540 and added a animalistic twist that to me makes it awful (but worse to my nose) to similar Mancera Instant Crush. The only twisted to the 540 DNA that I've liked (better than 540 which I also have) is Montale's Sexual Instinct. Of all this is to my nose so take it accordingly. The best part of this frag is the cool looking bottle. Ha
It would be great if you could review these PDM: Akaster, Ispazon, Lipizan, Nisan, Habdan, hamdani,
Habdan is in the video, rest are discontinued I believe
Guys I really need your help here because I'm so confused rn 🙁 I just got my hands on this & the package says "Royal Essence" just like the one in this video. But I keep seeing a different package design online where it only says "Layton EDP". Are these two different fragrances?
Also, I don't know if it's only me but I don't smell anything but the spicy notes and some vanilla, no Apple, nor fresh notes. So wth is going on? Please help 🙏🏼
I liked the premise of layton exclusif, but the execution is just horrible. The scent has two identities, the sweet and seductive layton dna, and the mature oriental oud, but they never come together harmonically and clash against each other. The oud is too strong and comes off as overwhelming. Against common opinion original laytons dry down is mature enough, there is no need for the oud of exclusif.
Ahh no way layton 10/10 over carlisle 😂.
Can u buy every Initio fragrance next
Plz make buying guide of xerjoff

The visual infusion and wide knowledge of ingredients, similar frags in different price ranges, and the packaged delivery makes this easily the best frag review channel out there!!!
Why is Andrew Tate reviewing perfumes?
Herod was my first buy from the brand, wore it when I met my SO 😅 she couldn’t get enough of it, still wear it on special occasions, I love it!😊
Fantastic, I think this is your signature series and what sets you apart from other channels, very very very good work my brother, keep it up and yeah someone else mentioned it already, you’d have to do initio next!
Thank you for the kind words 😊
Just got my fist PDM the other day, you guys weren't kidding about being able to end someone rightly with those caps.
This is the second time I've heard Greenly described as Head n Shoulders Green Apple Shampoo and I love that shampoo so much I know I have to love Greenly.
The thing I love about PDM is that there is a favorite for anyone, just look at the comments. You surely find what you like among the fragrances. One may like Carlisle better, the other one is a Pegasus fan. That's a noteworthy characteristic of the brand. As a person from the orient, the strong spice especially saffron vibe of Kalan, later turning into a smoky woody scent makes it a favorite of mine.
Kalan is a dark horse. Really, it smells like a sweet and spicy bell pepper at first then spicy sweet with the pepper smell fading away. I think if you are in a Latino heavy area, it'll just work for you and "makes sense" if you're the type of person who wears fragrances depending on location and occasion.
My wife and I picked out each other's wedding day scents. Oajan was the one she picked for me. 10/10 and my favorite in my collection for sentimental reasons. Ironically I picked out Delina Exclusif for her.
Goals
I love this type of video. You can be so gracious (and funny) when you’re being critical. I love your honesty.
Just got my Haltane. Smelling it side by side with Oud For Greatness, I found it less woody, less sweet and creamier than OFG.
I think it is better than OFG. Might be redundant to have both, but if I need to give up one of them, I’ll let go of OFG.
I also like Kalan. Maybe I’ll get a bottle before Christmas just so I can have Christmas colored PDMs in my display shelf. 😂
I use Layton and Pegasus! But Pegasus is the standout. Used to use Creed, but wanted something different / an alternative but similar and stumbled upon Parfums De Marley!
Same. Absolutely love Pegasus. Need to try Pegasus exclusif
This is the video i was waiting for. PDM is slowly becoming my favorite house. So far i got Layton, Oajan and my personal favorite Carlisle. And i love all of them. I sampled Herod but that one didn't do much for me. I got samples of Pegasus and Godolphin droppin in soon. Very excited to get my nose on those.
You and I are in the minority cause Herod doesn't nothing for me.
I absolutely love oajan, it was the first ever pdm I tried when I started with the popular Hobby of "bankruptcy via fragrance" and loved it instantly 👍🏾
Layton Exclusif is more appreciated in the fragrance community but not so much by the "average" pop . I have seen people trying to return Layton Exclusif once they bought it and used it . A score of 9/10 is high , perhaps 7/10 is fair . Congratulations for your channel, it's very entertaining .
13:35 No way. Herod smells much better. Oajan is a cinnamon bomb and that's it.
Carlisle has a gorgeous smell. The opening is dark but smooth. The dry-down is so powdery and delicate; I love it. When I finish the payment of my Amouage B. Iris, I'll definitely get a full bottle.
I got hooked on Layton. It’s like Uomo intense but less powdery and more spice. It’s amazing. Imagine spice bomb and uomo intense had a child
I have 25 niece fragrances but the amount of joy that Percival gives me is insane. Also it's super long lasting and sexy af
It’s simple but works! Glad you found something that resonates with you!
Just got a sample of it and the opening instantly reminded me of one I already own -> Mont Blanc Legend. Side by side they are very similar to my nose ! Very nice scent though :)
@@vermilion76 Percival and Legend are both based on/'inspired' by A&F Fierce
This does not work well with my skin, it literally lasts about 1 hour on me :( I love the scent tho
@@vermilion76 legend edp or edt version?
Thank you for this segment covering all the fragrances.. I’ve tried most of the popular choices (samplea) like Layton & Perceval but my nose just loves Haltane.. I recently bout a bottle (yes, too expensive) because I could smell this one daily.. so I really got this for myself
Haltane, Galloway and Percival are all in my regular rotation and I love them all.
Great Video, Tom Ford buying Guide would be Great but There are Too Many 😂
Big fan of HALTANE, that left a lasting impression after smelling it! I've tried Layton on skin and it was basically dead and gone after 1hr. I really enjoyed Layton exclusive and wearing Herod today, which is really really nice! Great video
Haltane is underrated
As Haltane is said to be a clone of Oud for greatness, and Lattafa Oud for Glory a cheap clone of Oud for greatness, could the last one also be a good alternative to Haltane?
@@wisecoonie to answer your question, I've sprayed one on each wrist and they are not really that close. Haltane smells much richer, woodier, saffron and oud. Oud for glory reminded me of Haltane the 1st time I smelled it but side by side they're not close. Parfums de marly and initio are sister companies so oud for greatness might be closer. Oud for glory is fantastic for the price though
@@dqyler Thank you for your answer!
Buying guides are fantastic 🤩love the series 🤩 I’ve been waiting for this vid man 🎉 if there is another buying guide I would definitely love to see a xerjoff one cuz this house is lit 🔥 ❤
I tried Carlisle today. Just blew my mind away. I'd say go with that guys 😊
I love haltane. I’m only 17 but I really enjoy the sweetness and it projects and last forever and pulls me compliments.
Indeed, you don't _have_ to buy _every_ PdM fragrance. Didn't mind getting some of them. Sad to see Herod being underrated in this video. Yes, it's smooth and therefor not complex. And linear, but... any direction it could develop in would be the wrong one anyway.
I think Greenley, Sedley and Percival do stand out well from one another. They're really easy to keep apart. They're just less of Omar's style it seems. Doesn't matter, just get samples. And take whatever you like.
I find Godolphin semi-attractive. Haven't had a real sample from it... but the bottle is golden and highly reflective. Under the right (or rather wrong) lighting it can even be painful to look at. Plus it gets covered by fingerprints, just looking at it. Again, nothing against the fragrance, but I do think it's one thing to keep in mind if you want to put it on a shelf.
I really dislike the Ambroxan in Greenley. It turns it into a chemical waste nightmare in the drydown. Such a shame because it's such a beautiful opening and middle. Really wished they could have done some lighter musks and some iso-e super instead.
What! .........you mean to say you don't shampoo your eyebrows 😨 I'm shocked omar very very shocked
Carlisle is still one of the best niche scent's I have smelled so far
i hated pegasus, but now i am liking it more and more. the metallic vibe was the factor i hated it, now im getting used to it and it is what makes pegasus very unique haha
My preferences (I own these)
1. Percival
2. Sedley
3. Galloway
4. Pegasus
5. Layton Exclusif
6. Haltane
7. Greenley
8. Kalan
9. Darley
10. Carlisle
11. Gadolphin
I get many compliments layering Pegasus with Percival. I bought a decant of Althair but it's smells identical to Pegasus to my nose.
I love Pergasus Exclusif and Kalan on me but hate Gandolphin (just bought a mini of it). Kalan is a perfect Spring - late summer fragrance on me, PE - definitely winter.
I own Percival and Layton both are super strong and always get positive attention but my favorite is Oajan which I don’t own
The batch codes of newer ones are weak I have a newer Herod that is not I repeat not beast most !
Haltane 7/10, im happy you are Gatekeeping. For me its the best of the PDM. Btw. Initios OFG is totaly different, maybe in the opening there are 30 sec that they are similar… but after is totally different.
Hi Omar, this is my ranking of the Brand
1. Carlisle
2. Herod, Oajan and Nisean
3. Kalan, Pegasus Exclusif, Greenley,
4. Habdan, Layton Exclusif, Pegasus, Darley, Kuhuyan
5. Sedley, Percival,
6. Akaster, Haltane, Layton Exclusif
8. Godolphin
9. Galloway
10. Layton
11. Shagya
12. Hamdani
13. Lippizan
14. Byerley (it's the only one of the house that i dislike, it smells like a mold orange, it dries down a little more nicer though)
?. Ispazon (haven't tried it yet)
I am not a huge fan of Pdm I find them a bit mid compared to other fragrances and I’m sick of hearing about them on TikTok but good video bro
Can you put the names of each of them on the screen? You speak great English but…your accent is different than the American accent so it’s difficult to understand the names without rewinding. Also can you focus more on summer fragrances for us that live in a very hot climate most of the year (Florida)
You didn’t mention what is the best all season if need to get only 1 🙄
Thanks. I was waiting for this comparison. Wonderful timing.
Good vid! I just ordered blind Layton Exclusif and Pegasus Exclusif. Supposed to be here Friday! I already have big bottles of Layton, Percival, and Sedley. Decants of several others.
Planning on getting Greenley by spring. Kalan is the only one that I can’t get myself to wear…yet anyway.
Also got my daughter that’s at college Delina last year.
Ope, forgot I have the small bottle of Herod as well. I agree with your review on it, it’s good, but not the best tabacco I have. Probably end up with Carlisle next after your (and others) great reviews.
What’s wrong with Kalyan? I keep hearing it’s a hit or a miss 🤨
@@pjlewis8089
If a guy wearing a very expensive suit, $1000 shoes, gets out of a Bentley to go into a shopping mall, when the whole place smells him instantly, they would think “that guy owns the property that every mall has been built on and he smells…interesting. He obviously doesn’t care what anyone thinks”.
If a guy wearing it has on jeans, running shoes, and tshirt gets out of any car that is less than 1/4 mil $, the whole mall would instantly smell him and think he fell into a vat of chemicals and probably call hazmat.
I exaggerate, but I couldn’t get the smell out of my kitchen for weeks from the overspray of one test. That was mid summer so honestly that probably ruined it for me.
Pegasus smells like root beer float
Herod smells like an old school wallstreet guy with a pinstripe suit
Layton smells like Apple pie concentrate
Percival smells like an abercrombie teenager who grows up into an abercrombie executive.
you should definitely try classic French style of perfumery by Serge Lutens, really solid niche and beautifully constructed. Great series, Omar!
Mate you absolutely nailed it again what a great video! It shows too how personal taste can be as I absolutely hate Kalan and think Herod is a 10/10. Keep up the good work!
Hello Omar and the community, here is my question: When you want to establish a collection out of 5 scents, do you think Parfums de Marley would fit? Like 1 scent for every occasion/day/night/officesafe, 1 scent for spring/summer/officesafe, 1 scent for autumn/winter/officesafe, 1 scent for dates/night and daytime and 1 scent for special occasions/leatherjacket. Would love to hear your opinion. With kind regards, Julian
I blind bought Layton thanks to the insane hype it gets. I’m still trying to like it, I don’t understand how it’s labelled as mass appealing when I’m still yet to find a person in real life that actually likes it let alone loves it. I’ve even tried spraying it on other people to see if it’s just me but no. Exclusif on the other hand… to me smells like I’ve just buried my head in a big bucket of soil and rotting leaves. Couldn’t get it off my skin fast enough. One more thing, this apple pie smell that everyone seems to describe, the thing smells NOTHING like apple pie. You really have to stretch your imagination to get apple pie
I actually hateeeee metallic fragrances but for some reason I'm just in loveeeee with pegasus, it takes u on a journey in its cloud of almond goodness
I got Layton recently and got the reformulation and it only lasts 5-6 hours on my skin
Yeah it’s sad
And it smells super synthetic after the opening
@@ItsMinarmy okay that one hurt a little bit 😂😂
@@ItsMinarmy not to my nose, but the longevity and projection is definitely worse
@Jeff O' Neil yeah facts PDM isn’t as strong as a lot of people say. I understand it’s reformulated though.
Only thing missing is how many sprays? For example, how many sprays of Percival would you put on?
Tbh i think spicebomb ectreme is a better tabacco vanilla fragrance than Herod. To me herod smells like the cheap vanilla scented candles you can buy pretty much anywhere
Haltane is a oud fragrance. Natural agarwood. Hence its price.
“100 years ago when I used shampoo”… I died 😂
Which one is the best for summer nights for a 30yr old? I still don’t have any PDM
Just got a Pegasus Exclusif 1ml and couldn’t get on with it at all, just a peppery smoke with little else going on. Was expecting more with your 10/10 review. I also received a Oajan 1ml and that was great for me - lovely honey cinnamon smell.
Because I am brooke.I felt that.I went to the boutique in New York, lovely lady ,I see why Layton is so well beloved but Pegasus may be more my style!!
Layton is loaded with powder too female. Greenly has by far gotten the most complements consistently.
Smells like shampoo. Pegasus exclusif is my fav from the house
Hi School of Scent, i love perfumes and scent and thank you for this content. I love your content and the depth you go to explain the details to your audience. Easily one of the best channels
I'm 49 and I love Layton, my top frag .I didn't like exclusiv neither did my date .Carlisle is def level 2 its not an easy ware
They have 0 staying power! to my expense I have found this, unlike Thameen.
If Byerley is to be discontinued, and there are people that like it, it would make sense for them to Byerley rather than late
Carlisle is one of my absolute fragrances ever. Sheer perfection.
Great video Omar. I think you missed Akaster. I love the house of Amouage I allready have 6 in my collection. Love to see you do a video on that house. You have great content in your videos. Keep up the great work!
