    I get what your saying, I wore AF fierce for several years and I also liked Mont Blanc Legend. This one is a slightly more grown-up version of Fierce and on par with Legends age range. On me it's VERY strong I do just two sprays and it lasts 10 hours. I really like this one it has grown on me a lot the more I have worn it the less I feel it smells like the two designers. Great take Ashton.

    Fan of Parfums de Marly. Layton is probably my favourite all-purpose scent and I also have Oajan for when I want to smell like dessert. Have not tried Percival yet. Thing to remember is all their scents have great longevity, so you get a boost in value from that. But they sure aren’t cheap.

    A. Percival smells NOTHING like MB Legend to me. Do people have the same polarized reaction to scents that we had to tastes in science class (Sweet v. Sour). If not, I can't explain why anyone would think they smell alike including during dry down.
    B. My wife goes crazy for percival. I wore MB Legend and told her it was Percival and I was invited to sleep on the couch.
    C. At least try a decant of both. Perhaps your experience is different but you'll at least know

    It's definitely a mass pleasing intended release. And at that they did a solid job imo. A very pleasant fresh scent with good performance. It's a nice change to get a fresh release from PDM. That isn't very common so it's a nice switch up from the last heavier releases like Carlise and Akaster.

    Percival does something on skin that Legend and Fierce could never dream of. Might be similar DNA on paper, but they are just not the same, and nowhere near the same performance. I bought a decant sprayer that I filled half with The One EDP and half this, and that stuff slaps. The One doesn't mess with Percival's performance, but it does soften things a little and the two are an awesome combo when sprayed from a decant bottle where both are actually mixed together. I don't recommend actually layering and putting one on first and the other on second.

    For Percival Seemed like nothing special. It was like so basic and reminds me of the 80s or 90s type fragrances. This is the first five minutes. Then, it turned into a Hulk. Very Unique, Very strong, and so long-lasting. It's very modern and advanced even though it started as a 90s scent. Yes, the first half hour 100% Abercrombie. And you get mad.

    Just got my sample this morning. Wow, very happy I hadn't bought a full bottle, especially as it is very expensive.

It's my first experience of a Parfums De Marly scent and I'm shocked they could sell this at the price they do.. Nice scent, don't get me wrong, but it is smelling and performing on me like something I can get six times cheaper.. Hope the other scents in their range are better than this??

    • @Callusny
      @Callusny 4 роки тому +1

      The idea is that these perfumes smell of higher quality, so if it smells like something else that is cheaper - it can be hard to justify paying the higher price. If you're buying a scent and don't care so much about money and just want higher quality, for sure Percival is the choice - which I think is the main idea around niche fragrances anyway. But for someone who doesn't think the higher quality scent is worth the price jump, it doesn't make a sense to buy this scent - probably makes more sense to buy something more daring, stronger.

    Thanks for the comparison to Legend! You saved me $25 for a decant. I can't justify paying more money (especially hundreds) for a fragrance that's 80% or more similar to one I already own. It's why I can't buy Aventus while I own CDNI-not an identical clone, but definitely good enough at 1/10 of the price. However, please enter me into the giveaway and I'll definitely take it!

    I went to the Percival release event here in NYC at the PDM boutique and tried it there....I liked it but didn't love it and thought it was just okay. I spent more time trying out some of their other fragrances, all of which I liked far more (Oajan, Akaster, & Herod stuck out for me especially). This review and the Mont Blanc Legend comparison are spot on for me. I love Parfums De Marly and hear this one get tons of hype but it's a hard pass for me.

    Awesome review! I definitely want to try this because I do enjoy legend but at the same time even discounted I'm not sure it's worth it but I'll have to sample it. Legend always gets me good reactions but only when people can smell it on me which is about 2 hours before it's a total skin scent and 4 before it's completely gone so improved performance is always a plus. Keep up the good work man!

    @tazercin 5 років тому

    Parfums de marly isn't available where I am at, has been a house that interested me but kinda sad 8 can't test them out without flying to somewhere else. Layton is definitely a bomb and has been on my radar ever since smelling it on someone else.
    Hoping to give this a try too!

  • @dr.fragrance3185
    @dr.fragrance3185 5 років тому

    My experience with this one is that it smells nice and people around me really have enjoyed it. I've noticed in fact, some women respond very positively, maybe it's that hedione magic. That being said, it's not one that I really enjoyed. So I won't be picking up a bottle.

  • @CP9_Shino

  • @xyber81
    @xyber81 3 роки тому +1

    I’m late to the game with PdM, I never jump on the hype train, I’ll leave things alone and come back to them later to see if it was real. Now the PdM hype has died down a bit I thought I’d try the stand outs from the reviews I’d seen, Herod and Layton. Sorry pure hype, nice bottles, nice presentation, they’ve cultivated a niche feeling very well, but it’s just average at best from what I’ve tried. Layton just smells like a reformulated Boss Bottled and Herod smelt nothing like it’s notes. They aren’t niche in my eyes, just expensive and mass appealing and sweet smelling. Ok if you are just dipping you toe into higher end fragrances they are probably better than the average joes, but in comparison to actual niche or small, high end brands, I don’t think they are comparable. They are to me, the Balmain T-shirt of fragrances and if you know what I mean by that, I salute you 😂

  • @BDLforever24
    @BDLforever24 4 роки тому

    Percival is essentially a smoother Montblanc Legend. Only problem is I'm not a fan of the Legend DNA whatsoever. It smells nice but I'll pass. Parfum de Marly's bread and butter is in their cold weather scents. Pegasus, Oajan, Herod, Layton, all elite status fragrances.

    Hello sir I believe you said you love discontinued fragrances , so may I recommend 2 for you . 1st is Feeling Man by Jill Saunder , #2 Pancaldi by Pancaldi, this fragrance is smooth and has a Savage vibe to it . I don't know why these are discontinued.

    I owned Fierce years ago and, at the time, i loved it (even with the bad perfomance it had). If Percival lasts 8+ hours, i think i will love it even more! Please enter me in the giveway

  • @lgeiger
    @lgeiger Рік тому

    If you blind bought this without a discount, you might get disappointed. Because of the performance (up to 10 hours), it's versatility and my persosnal preference for this type of scent profile, I just had to buy it, but I also got a huge discount on it. Not sure if I would have paid the full price.

  • @jhonatansanchez2654

      Percival its way much more complex, its made for womans noses, so you maybe wont smell as a man what womans smells. Montblanc has cool colognes but are quiet lineal.
      This is another level of Perfume.

    Love to be entered into the giveaway. Been dying to try I have yet to come across a PDM I havent liked but did see all the reviewers crap on this when it came out and just havent pursued it. I love your honesty and like legend but it never lasted very long so I totally get what you are saying and this would be a good option but hard to justify those prices for an ununique scent. Love your vids and appreciate your honesty.

    @solitude1612 5 років тому

    Got the 125ml tester for $100 :).It's not really a "niche" smelling fragrance but absolutely it is high quality. I do not like the opening as I smell a lot of ambroxan which reminds me of dior sauvage( I have not smell montblanc legend or aber crombie fierce).Overall it is a nice pleasant smell but I do not think you should buy it at retail price. For $100 it is definitely worth it though :)
