Versace doesn't feel like a cheapie brand. Eros is dropping down into the sub $50's too. The designer market feels like the disparity is increasing between affordable and ludicrous.
Fragrances are so divisive aren’t they. I personally think Versace smells and feels super sharp and cheap to my nose. I’ve tried about 50 brands and have given my two Versace away ultimately
Versace fragrances for the price point are very well put together though. Especially for people just starting out, and you get the satisfaction of being able to afford and own a product from a high end luxury brand.
@@FauxWockThat is true. Though, it is a weird dichotomy. Versace is a designer brand like Dior or Givenchy, but the latter two are getting more and more expensive, while Versace is normally selling fragrances at a much lower price point. In a way ‘cheapening’ the brand in my opinion. Aside from the fact that Dior and Givenchy are heritage brands and Versace is not, they can be put in the same ballpark, sort of. I am overthinking it too much, I know. But it is just weird.
@@balazs7235 in terms of finding versace at a discounted price, yes its cheaper and “cheapening” the brand. I can understand that, and also understand how smelling a wide range of scents can make versace smell cheap as well as a previous commenter stated, but in terms of retail, they retail over $100 so I couldn’t consider them cheap. We’ll see what happens with the new Eros Energy release. Im sure more people will be purchasing at retail instead of discounted
im so glad to see Versace Pour Home on the list, has been one of my goes to for many years now, and to this day i get compliments from girls and even guys asking what smell is that.
Dylan Blue and Pour Homme are absolute bangers. Pour Homme was my introduction into the world of fragrances. Also, im glad you brought up the coach for men line in this video. I had the same take on Coach Green, although I really liked the dry down. Just blind bought Coach Platinum today as well, and Im glad I did
So Platinum is worth it, huh? I love Coach for Men and don't mind Coach Blue. Wasn't crazy about Green, but I didn't really stick around for the dry down...
@@unclejimmyray i had sprayed green on my skin, so I was kinda stuck with it the whole day, but just kept smelling it throughout, and came around to liking it. Definitely an acquired taste, or in this case, smell. Platinum has a pretty loud opening, very sweet, and citrusy. I believe its Pineapple and Juniper Berries. I wont hype it up too much tho, as it has a pretty classic/mediocre fresh clean scent to it, but it tickles the nose hairs just right that it isn’t something I can complain too much about. The dry down supposedly lacks character compared to the opening, but depends on the individual. I personally like it in its entirety. Ive been wanting to get OG coach, and I did find it but it was only 1.7floz, and the platinum was 2.0floz. So I pulled the trigger on platinum.
My most compliment fragrance has been angels share and Layton. I never do blind buys. I watch your videos and trust your judgment and hasn't failed me yet
Ayyyy, he saw my comment! I was one of the ones that said Club Black! I bought this one around the time it was sold out everywhere and ran as fast I could when I found a bottle for under $40
Love Khamra Kawha, wore it on a date and my girlfriend absolutely hated it - said I smelled like a decorative holiday pinecone, and that it totally sabotaged my otherwise masculine appearance and personality. You know what? She was right, so I gave the stuff to my daughter, who loves it and puts it to great use. Also, I once got slammed by a woman when I was wearing Dylan Blue, she said I probably had no idea that I smelled like extremely powerful laundry detergent. Ouch. You know what? She was totally right, that's EXACTLY what it smells like. I never wear it anymore. Other brutally honest comments from women include how Missoni Wave smells like furniture polish and disposable kitchen wipes, and Bentley Intense smells like paint drying in your grandfather's closet, chokes people out of the room and makes them hate you (basically just a cheap Dior Fahrenheit and hated just as much). My point is that most guys have no idea how this stuff ACTUALLY smells to women when these women aren't on camera being asked about these fragrances. When women aren't playing along, they can be BRUTALLY honest.
It’s CRAZY how you can get explorer for so cheap today. It’s my daily signature scent because in Brazil almost no one uses it. Would still buy it if it was 100 bucks.
Just my opinion but Star Men Nebula smells like a $10 rack store fragrance to me and that opening is horrendous . Does get better in dry down , but I would not blind buy .
Love the colognes you pick man. We have similar tastes. So many cologne/fragrance influencers love those spicy scents and man they are not for me. Hey which of the colognes you made would you recomments thats a fresh clean scent. My top two colognes are gucci guilty black, and chanel allure extreme sport. Also really like ocean nior micheal malul
I like Legend Spirit, but I would agree with Legend EDP as my preferred "Legend" and personally I would but it in S tier, but I understand if othwers wouldn't. I have not smelled Legend Blue or Red yet though
I had so many Fragrance in my life but on me ... Explorer and CDNI gave my by far the most reactions out of people .. In the Winter time its Spicebomb Extrem or Guerlain lhomme ideal Parfume
Im close to convinced now i got a bad batch of Artisan Pure. Mine smells so harsh and not smooth. It smells like orange chemical cleaner , its so sharp with orange it is the worst blind buy ever for me.
It has a plenty smell that gives me a headache. Would like to know what it is so i can avoid it. Stuff like aqua di gio doesnt bother me, but usually anyrhing "green" gives me headaches
Mercedez club black is backup bottle worthy along with salvatore ferragamo uomo signature. I bought 3 bottles of signature for $30 100 each. I gave my cousin as birthday 🎁.
Uomo signature is amazing.. one of my favs I bought it and Halloween man x.. people saying they are similar.. I disagree.. Halloween is not bad but signature is a thousand times better
I have over 100 bottles and 100 decants and Bentley for Men Intense is by far the most garbage, awful smelling fragrance I've ever smelled. I literally could NOT even give it away. Had 4 or 5 friends smell it and they all thought it was gross and awful. It finally went in the trash. The hype is NOT real with BFMI
Ironic that Mercedes Benz fragrances are 'cheap.' The only MB that is cheap. The same with Ferrari and Bentley. Expensive cars, cheap fragrances. Some bad smellers, too.
I mean what is considered the best or worst is all relative. People like different scents. So how would one really rank it based on anything other than personal opinion?
All my stuff is under $50. I gave Nebula to the friend, who does not like it either. Pure Garbage of fragrance. My top is Bentley Intense, Turathi Blue, Lalique Lion, Exclusif Tabac, Rasasi Hawas. All others are optional. Recreational. "Let's try something different". Mentioned 5 are "Must have" for me (and I have double bottles of each). Just in the case.

How about a top ten barber shop fragrances? Or a top ten vetiver fragrances?
Been trying to get him to do a top vetiver list for a while, bro won't listen.
Also, a top iris list would be amazing too.
Top vetiver, please!
@@w00tah1 Terré Dhermes top 1 no doubts.
I was getting ready to question your sanity after seeing the thumbnail and Club Black in B Tier. Well played, it's the definition of S Tier
I was happy to see vintage radio show up. It’s my favorite on this list.

Thanks Ash! Nice to see Turathi Blue on your list as I finally pulled the trigger on it and it's on the way to me now.
Been loving the edits lately. Great seeing the content still improving over there years!
One of the best fragrance video seen in long time ( on budget)

Calvin Klein Be was so disrespected by not even getting a mention.
Love Uomo Signature! Might be crazy to say but it’s definitely in my top 5 all time
I appreciate the blues traveler reference
Encre Noire Lalique??
Unless you are finding the older version, Jean Lowe IMMORT (E )L now spelled, is the current batch being produced and sold. IMHO, it's better!

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
Where's Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir? Davidoff Zino?
I’ve really been enjoying Explorer lately! I tend to reach for it more than Aventus, but may be because of the price per spray difference…
Great video, Ash! 🤘
Just got Mont Blanc explore, Khamrah, wave, dylan blue 🔥🔥
A video we all need !!
Great video Ash.
great list and also clasification...dylan blue is the real deal
It’s CRAZY how you can get explorer for so cheap today. It’s my daily signature scent because in Brazil almost no one uses it. Would still buy it if it was 100 bucks.
The hook brings you back
I see you and the blues traveler reference
Ch chic not on many list but I love it
The dragons at the start of the video were class
The hook brings you back
I see you and the blues traveler reference
the hook references on a blue fragrance, expertly done
I aint tellin you no lie
we need a second part!!
Just my opinion but Star Men Nebula smells like a $10 rack store fragrance to me and that opening is horrendous . Does get better in dry down , but I would not blind buy .
Wasn't a huge fan either, and neither were the people around me. ☠️😅
Versace pour homme and Missoni wave smell so close
Great review Ash you know what your doing, your on ☝️ point with your game your greatness your the g.o.a.t
Love the colognes you pick man. We have similar tastes. So many cologne/fragrance influencers love those spicy scents and man they are not for me.

Burberry touch?
Thank you Ash.
I don't get what the graphs mean
For me amber oud gold is a solid choice ❣️
Ash, I thought it's about designer brands only and not clones.
What’s better between Oumo and Khamra?
missoni wave is my absolute favorite smell
Thanks Ash. Your great 👍 👌
What about Coach Blue? I've never tried it but curious to hear what you think.
This guys the goat
What about Bentley Absolute? I like it much more than intense. It's like Intense but mixed with Gucci Pour Homme.
Absolute(ly) agree 😁 it's the best Bentley
I like Legend Spirit, but I would agree with Legend EDP as my preferred "Legend" and personally I would but it in S tier, but I understand if othwers wouldn't. I have not smelled Legend Blue or Red yet though

same here
Rochas L'homme below Legend Spirit and in the third tier? No way!
how do you have time to make this much content? it's extraordinary! and helpful!!
Bentley still getting recognition I still haven’t smelt any
The dragons are hilarious, especially given the last episode of House of Dragon 😂
Can you do a fragrance video for fall and winter please?
Mont Blac Starwalker or Eternity Intense.
I love Starwalker but I wish it had an EDP. The smell is great but it never lasts long.
Ur take on filippo sorcinelli???
Great video
The head exploding clip 🤣🤣🤣
do i get khamrah or club black
Khamrah is a banger I own one and it’s a solid cologne. Trust trust
Would be great if you could start telling us how many ml. it is in the bottles you show in the videos.
Bentley For Men Intense 👍
22:05 funny! For me Dylan Blue smells like B.O. John Varvatos Classic, timeless!
No Davidoff??
Your Bentley for men intense rating is a crime imo
I have EDT version which is lighter and I still don't know when to wear it, I think this rating is fair
Hahah the brainskip on KY. 😂
F BLACK IS +SSSSS TIER ❤❤❤
Mercedes Black better than Altair PDM? hmmmmm?
May grab some lattafa khamrah
It seems like John Varvatos Pure Artisan is ALWAYS sold out. 🥴
no lacoste white in this?
what do y'all think of versace l'homme?
I like how he ranks the fragrances 🔥 nice review and choice's love the video Gents Scents stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Just saying if you cant find Jimmy Choo Man Ice, another alternative is Mercedes Benz Cologne
lhomme rochas is amazing
No one mentioned Afnan 9pm? Really?
Chic is 100% S Tier
Cool water should be on here
You should do a video with no fragrances, just intros.
Starmen Neb is sold out everywhere 😢
You lost me on Coach Green. That juice is awesome! Vibrant opening, for me the drydown seems to run in similar vein as Missoni pour homme.
Agreed. The opening has a super unique fruity sweetness and is just amazing to my nose. The dry-down is just alright but still works for this price.
It has a plenty smell that gives me a headache. Would like to know what it is so i can avoid it. Stuff like aqua di gio doesnt bother me, but usually anyrhing "green" gives me headaches

I like Dior homme, but I thought jimmy choo ice was awful.
Am I the ONLY person who smells burnt tires STRONGLY in Ferragamo Uomo Signature??
Hay un chingo de clones árabes de Blue de Chanel de muy buena calidad que faltaron en esa lista , uno al menos

Vintage Radio I just found incredibly boring tbh. Personal preference but I don't get the hype aye
14:18 2003 is dated now?!?!? Man im getting old (My birthyear is 2003)
Dam unc
I feel so dumb knowing that Legend Night was my signature scent for years
Uomo, not Uomo signature 👍
Dylan blue is SSS tier
Coach green should not be that low ..
Ironic that Mercedes Benz fragrances are 'cheap.' The only MB that is cheap. The same with Ferrari and Bentley. Expensive cars, cheap fragrances. Some bad smellers, too.
Top content
lattafa hercules is best
I tried herold and smells the same
At first I was not sure about it.. as it’s a diff smell.. but I like it a lot now.. also lasts 10 hours
Those VFX were corny af ash 😂
I had chic several years ago , I got the worst performance out of it on my skin so in other words I gave it away.

I mean what is considered the best or worst is all relative. People like different scents. So how would one really rank it based on anything other than personal opinion?
@@TECfan1rank it as favorite/least favorite by own opinion and not using terms like best and worst.
All my stuff is under $50. I gave Nebula to the friend, who does not like it either. Pure Garbage of fragrance. My top is Bentley Intense, Turathi Blue, Lalique Lion, Exclusif Tabac, Rasasi Hawas. All others are optional. Recreational. "Let's try something different". Mentioned 5 are "Must have" for me (and I have double bottles of each). Just in the case.
I can't take this list seriously without Club de Nuit Intense Man. It is probably the best scent under $50 PERIOD. MOST COMPLIMENTS EVER OF ANY SCENT!
Because most people here don't want to wear the same fragrance as 80%+ of the population
Also , videos says designer, Arabs are not in that category.
