Things to remember is that "You Wear the Perfumes, Not the Perfumes wear You".. Your characters and mood does play a big role in expressing the beauty of your scents..
What's funny is back in my college days I was just a poor lad working two jobs between classes, so my cologne of choice (really the only one I could afford) was a $7 bottle of original Old Spice. Now I'm a working professional and several of the designer colognes (Aventus, Wanted by Night, Man in Black etc). Last week my wife (who was my girlfriend back in college) said to me, "Why don't you wear that cologne you use to wear back in college, I liked it better than these new ones." So basically I have spent hundreds of dollars when my wife preferred a $7 Old Spice.
Wore adg profumo to a doctor's appointment.... The nurse taking my blood pressure was leaving the room, shut the door, turns around and says, this might be weird (i was thinking ohhhh shit what's she about to say 😂) but what cologne are u wearing... I need to know what it is.... Scent is just perfect 👀
@@Oll826 it’s a gorgeous scent, I’ve gotten compliments with it also. But it’s definitely up to you if you like it or not. I wouldn’t blind buy such an expensive fragrance even if it’s on discounters lol
People can make fun of Dior Sauvage, to me it’s still the king of designers fragrances. Trust me I smelled a lot of fragrances, from MFK grand soir, several killians , Creed , Frederic Malle POAL in term of designers DS is a heck of a frag people it’s like the Aventus of designers.
I would like to see you do a video as if starting a collection from scratch one must have from each line so for instance one boss Cologne one Versace cologne one Dior cologne Etc. What is the best or the best one to buy from each brand. Maybe not at the top seller but in your opinion the best one from each line
The og eros is a beast still so i couldn't even imagine flame having the same performance.. hows the performance of flame? Maybe i should pick it up if it really is a beast.. i wonder how the new edp eros performs is it softer or just as beast as the og eros?
I remember the one that kicked off my fragrance journey. On a cold Irish autumn cloudless night I was testing aftershaves at the local store and sprayed myself with bvlgari man in black when the wind blew the scent back at me I was near drooling. I got lots of compliments it cut right through the cold 😂😂
Pi was good I got a bottle in. A tester kit that gave me the choice to pick one. It made me nauseous how sweet it was so had to give to a friend. Great scent but can't handle on my skin
i think women prefer code profumo over absolu. If you look at all the reviews on absolu vs profumo, every female said profumo was better. My girlfriend and sister both said they could wear the absolu, it is quite feminine. Profumo smells better to be honest and projects more, smells more masculine.
Hello Dallas, how are you? Great job on the video and list!! I have Prada Luna Rossa Carbon and Prada L Homme. Would be wasting to get black? Stay safe brother!
Not imo...black is a totally different scent more for cooler weather but some flexibility in temp but a fantastic frag...many women find it very sexy as well and pretty good performance
I really enjoy watching your videos..I was wondering if you know of any good givenchy play intense substitutes, it’s so upsetting they discontinued it.
Love the reviews bought a few fragrances from your videos and loved them so I trust your judgement. I'm due to get married in a few months time ( fingers crossed with the covid ) was wondering if you could recommend a fragrance for myself for on my wedding day? Or even do a video on fragrances for a wedding. Price isn't an issue as I will keep it for most of my life as a momento to the day. Thanks love the videos !!
Congratulations on getting married what is the weather going to be roughly the time of year where you are and what type of scents do you prefer fresh or sweet
Thank you. I'm from the UK I get married in April so it can really be any sort of weather haha but hopefully dry at least haha I do prefer fresh scents
@@danielgilmartin710 i would recommend Amouge Reflection Man its upscale formal situations appropriate and will work regardless of the weather you get on your wedding day. Good luck and all the best hope everything turns out how you and your future wife have planned 👍
Pdm Layton disappointed me, everyone said it smells like an apple pie & I was intrigued, but to me it smells very medicinal, almost like vicks vapor rub... I can’t be the only one that smells that. I really wanted to like it smh.
I have the cologne. From bloomingdale's. I smell apple, but It does not smell like apple pie. It does not smell like vicks vaporub, what your smelling is patchouli Its more like apple mint sensation. You probably smelled a fake.
Retails about 300, but you can find it at some discounters for about half that. Think I paid around 160 from fragrancebuy. Check venba too, he's got great prices on PDMs.
Man what is up with all these Profumo reformulation rumors? I've been seeing it all over Fragrantica and UA-cam.... I just bought my husband a new one and it smells and performs identical to his 2015 bottle.
@@AJ........ That fishy note is too off-putting to me and if that note is being used it should be really toned down...it is too prominent in this one. Even had a hard time giving the fragrance away because nobody wanted it lol
I don't like Versace Eros flame Versace Eros or Prada black. Especially Prada black. That's crazy ..everybody different ..i would recommend try b4 u buy
Hi, Can you please help me find the alternatives of Armani Code and Mont Blanc Legend Night? My wife and i both love it, but i wanted something new, since its Covid year,well years, cant do much testing on my own. Cheers from Malaysia
all this talk about getting compliments...: IF someone should get compliment for scent, it should be perfumer who made the scent, NOT someone for just overpaying it and wearing it...if someone says you smell nice, does it mean: congrats for paying much more than it's worth, and smelling like x others people....?!
Is that first impressions or actually giving it multiple wearings and testing it thoroughly? Most of my favorites didn't become my favorite the first time.
@@ChaosFragrances no I currently own about 200 bottles and I’m a collector. I personally think CDIM is better in the dry down then creeds Aventus. And profundo is much better than Profumo IMO

when im home i keep around 3 bottles by me in my room just so I can smell the atomizer and caps, but also admiring the bottle designs.

Out of every fragrance I've ever owned, Layton gave me the most compliments.
When did you buy it? , what else is on your collection? Can't decide wether to pull the trigger or not

same, smelled a lot and nothing beats dior sauvage. and also its not like everyone wears it, thats total bs
@@coach1387 agreed brother
The EDP version is far superior though.
It's all personal taste. So many people like it, but to me I just get meh kind of boring and not as masculine as I like
Adg profumo the king 💯
Absolutely. I'm sick of people claiming its been reformulated.
I’m so glad you mentioned boss the scent absolu it’s the perfect cologne honestly I love it smelled it two weeks ago and automatically ordered one!
Glad you finally told the truth about Armani code absolu.

How many sprays Mongol?
Maybe theyre just shy. Some does not have the courage to compliment someone.
Your characters have to get a long with the perfume you wear.. Cant depends on the perfume when its only an accessories..
profondo its better
@@BestBrandsPerfume 3 sprays, two behind the ears one behind the neck

I love the mustache🔥👌🏽

A great video, Dallas. Congratulations and thanks from Salamanca, SPAIN.
i finally bought spice bomb extreme it’s my winter go too
If you can't afford PdM Layton you can get Hugo Boss Boss Bottled Intense EDP, it's pretty similar for a fraction of the price, 40 bucks for a 100ml
Sampled Aqua Digio Profumo today. I wasn't blown away at all. My wife didn't like it. I expected more, but fragrance is subjective.
Depend what you wear that fragrance can't be dress in gym short and t-shirt. Now you have a fit on casual or dress up. You will be look at different
It’s a very musky scent. More of an old man scent. Leans more towards an aftershave smell
It's really stout at first. The dry down is nice
I love it. Absolutely my favorite on my husband.
I loveeee gyvenchi pi, espacially after 1 hour when the sent has settled
Pi is a oldie but goodie, I got more compliments from men wearing it but it’s still one I should go for more
Pi was good I got a bottle in. A tester kit that gave me the choice to pick one. It made me nauseous how sweet it was so had to give to a friend. Great scent but can't handle on my skin

Yer that has to be in there!!

A head to head between Invictus Aqua 2018 vs Bvlgari Atlantique. Any thoughts? Differences ?
Honestly just buy Mont Blanc Legend Spirit. Smells like a cross between the two and its cheaper.
@@winnienguyen4420 I think it smells better than both too...good call..lol...it's a banger warmer weather scent with good performance for me
Profumo is the best! 🔥
My new fav for winter is Rochas L'homme. Fantastic scent from the opening to drydown.

Is Dylan blue still worth it in 2021?

just go for jean paul gaultier ultra male instead if you're not 15 yo anymore

Go with PDM Layton. It is so classy, well balanced and people pleaser. It just can't get any better
Your mic is picking up some constant noise
Pdm Layton disappointed me, everyone said it smells like an apple pie & I was intrigued, but to me it smells very medicinal, almost like vicks vapor rub... I can’t be the only one that smells that. I really wanted to like it smh.
That was my exact thought too. I’d rather buy Vicks vapor rub for $5 and wear it if I want to smell like Layton. Disgusting
I have the cologne. From bloomingdale's. I smell apple, but It does not smell like apple pie. It does not smell like vicks vaporub, what your smelling is patchouli Its more like apple mint sensation. You probably smelled a fake.
Even Dallas in this video said there's a menthol scent in there
Have a bottle of pi Givenchy on the way. And several decants of the fragrances mentioned here.
What’s a reasonable price for 4.2 oz PDM Layton?
Retails about 300, but you can find it at some discounters for about half that. Think I paid around 160 from fragrancebuy. Check venba too, he's got great prices on PDMs.

Agree with the list except Atlantique...don't like it at all and I've had 5 persons smell it and none of them really liked it.
There's like a oceany almost fishy note that I don't like and I'd like it so much better if that one note was left out
@@AJ........ That fishy note is too off-putting to me and if that note is being used it should be really toned down...it is too prominent in this one. Even had a hard time giving the fragrance away because nobody wanted it lol
Just got a 2.5 oz for 60 from armani bueaty 50%
Muchas gracias
Prada LRB smells a lot like Burberry Touch, I think. Burberry is way cheaper!
Dolce n Gabanba K parfum is still a let down to my nose.
Light Blue Intense is the way to go as far as D&G goes.
Yesss lets go
Of course Dallas had to insert Bvlgari Aqua Atlantique 😅🏆✨
...and with that I bought Aqua Atlantique today because of Dallas 😊🏆✨
My girlfriend literally hates ADG profumo so does my friends gf that stuff is like poison to them
Are the 2020 batches for Layton good? Mine becomes a skin scent I think after 4 hours or I’m nose blind
Mine as well ; it’s not as powerful as I was thinking it would be. But I remember around 8 years ago, I had a godolfin, and it was beast
Exactly! Mine becomes a skin scent after 2-3h. Definitely that was reformulation :((
@@TheGunner91 looks like we found out the hard way layton ain’t the move anymore but the projection I get is beastly and fills up a room
I don't like Versace Eros flame Versace Eros or Prada black. Especially Prada black. That's crazy ..everybody different ..i would recommend try b4 u buy
I like almost all of the frags in this video, but K edp er absolutely horrendous.
Hi,
Can you please help me find the alternatives of Armani Code and Mont Blanc Legend Night? My wife and i both love it, but i wanted something new, since its Covid year,well years, cant do much testing on my own. Cheers from Malaysia
Azzaro Wanted by Night and Prada L'homme Intense are pretty good. My wife likes them both and they can be found at reasonable prices.
Dude Code Absolu is a perfect substitute for original Code. Or even Code Colonia. The original was reformulated 10-12 years ago.
