Love that you’re just as pumped to talk about ultra cheapies as you are your most expensive niche, Ross. Fantastic list, many I’ve wanted to get my hands on since finding your channel; just wish my rack stores weren’t so barren lol. Happy New Year bro!
I wanted to comment on your body change. You've been working out and getting healthier! that's dope my guy! I been following your videos for a bit like 3 years or so. You have been consistent with your blind buy recommendations and you do search for undercover gems WE APPRECIATE THAT!
Love the video. I have several of the fragrances you listed. Ferragamo F Black was my SOTD yesterday. I like that you can still appreciate less expensive fragrances and provide us with info on where to get good fragrances cheaper. My collection has grown to over 100 fragrances cheapies from rack stores as well as some niche and some expensive designer brands that I have found at discounters. Thanks again my man!
big (new) fan of the channel. you turned me on to another great cheapie for fall/winter - cremo spice and black vanilla - thought it might show up here. i love it. haven't smelled spicebomb extreme, but kept hearing this cremo was a really good approximation of that fragrance. bright, tart spices with a dark vanilla background melt into a cashmere/dark vanilla, and finally dry down into a long-lasting dark vanilla surrounded by spices. BIG thumbs up on that one, and i will have to try a few of these now. keep hearing about joop homme ice being a fantastic spring/summer cheapie. that may be my next blind buy. anyway thanks for the great channel and suggestions!
Recently went on a rack store hunt, got Grassland and Neroli Woods for $20 each and a 100 ml of 3am for the same. Also Starwalker extreme for $25. Burlington and TJ Maxx.
Really enjoyed your just as excited for the cheapies as I am I had the majority of the list 4 or 5 of them I'm still trying to find. Thanks for blind buying to give us a chance to see what they offer.
Definitely some fantastic cheapies. F Black took me awhile to really love though. That opening was a bit odd for me at first. I haven't tried Hugo Reversed yet, but I do really love Hugo Just Different.
Ross! My homie! My brother! Enjoyed this one! Thanks to your suggestions I have a handful on the list. The latest was Hugo Reversed. Have a great last Thursday of 2021 my brother! ONE LOVE from Pensacola, Florida!!
My local Ross was almost completely out of every single fragrance both men and womens. Saw the Hugo Reverse sitting on the empty shelf and I scooped it. My new favorite out of the shower scent.
Who can argue with cheapies vids? I have a few that were on your list. Individuel, 3AM, 1981 LA, and Love & Luck. I just picked up Individuel yesterday and had never smelled it. Kind of reminds me of Thallium a bit. A cheapie that I got for Christmas that I fell in love with over the past few days is, Usher UR. I appreciate the videos. Any time you say something is blind buy worthy, I trust it 100%.
Don't forget Tommy by Tommy Hilfiger....lately all I've been wearing is Tommy or Halloween Man. I just find the scent of Tommy super relaxing and comforting!!!!! Have 3 200 ml bottles of it now, crazy, I know!!!!! Found em at T.J. Maxx and couldn't pass them up!!! Have a great New Year sir!!!!!!!
Nice video!! I’ve stepped my fragrance game up a lot but, I still love my cheapies!! IMO the best cheapie Ouds are Oud Touch and Vanilla Oud by Franck Olivier,you can get them for about $20 to $ 25 and smell expensive.
Keep picking up Hugo Reversed at the rack stores but have yet to pull the trigger. Picked up Starwalker Intense the other day instead. Maybe this weekend I’ll finally grab it. Definitely been keeping an eye out for Run Wild.
Hey Ross! I just jumped into this video straight from your livestream and I had a great time! I always appreciate your cheapie videos bro! Most of the time, fragrances within this price point are all that I can afford, so these videos are really valuable to me! So thank you for keeping them going. Btw, you're absolutely right about Sean John 3AM and St Bart's! I LOVE MINE! One last thing, I see that you like the house of Guess, and knowing that, I recommend checking out Guess By Marciano. It's a really nice Orange/Amber fragrance and thank you for putting me in I Am King. Great stuff!
Awesome review. I have a few of them. Penguin premium blend, you can't go wrong in my opinion, it's one of my favorite work scent. First instinct together and F black, I blind bought from watching your videos, two of my absolute favorites. I live in the desert southwest, 110 deg. summer, I do wear F black in that heat, no more than 3 sprays and it works on my skin. Thanks.
I've blind bought some of your recommendations and always on point, whether cheapies, nice (Triumph of Baccus) or designer. The only fragrance connoisseur I trust. Unfortunately no matter if I exfoliate or bathe in moisturizer, fragrances don't last on my skin. That said, I gave up on the performance/longevity aspect and stick with what smells good.
Don’t forget the English Laundry line. Some of the best clones for still $12.99. They even have small bottle sets. I can attest half these I’ve blind bought on your recommendations and they have all lived up to your recommendation.
Love Hugo Boss Reversed! Bought and tried Sean John 3am and couldn't stand it (Hamster cage vibes) and tossed it. Jimmy Choo Man Ice is another good one for $25-$30 if you see it in a rack store.
Ross! Abercrombie and Fitch first instinct together is the truth! What does the PE élite box look like? This has been the one I have been wanting to try!
On a recent rack store run, I got Mont Blanc Starwalker edt and Legend Spirit edp. Big fan of both of those scents. I also bought BR Grassland and Metal Rain...both smell good, but I really like Metal Rain a lot more. Now, scents I've seen in rack stores that I haven't gotten to yet, but interested in are Mont Blanc Individuel, JPG Le Male Navy, Jimmy Choo Man, Michael Jordan's Legend, Lacoste White, Azzaro Wanted by Night. But the main scent I'm looking for is oud...can't remember of Boss Bottled has any of that or not. Great video and content as always bro! Keep TX fresh!
If you're looking to try an Oud scent, i agree that B. Republic's Oud Mosaic is a great starting point, for the cologne quality to cost ratio. Plus it's a balanced oud, not too extreme in any direction. Also Hugo Boss does make an Oud one that's really good for the price, and it has Oud in it's title. To me Mont Blanc Individuel is really unique for the dough. The cocoa note is smoothly layered in there, i wasn't aware of it 'til someone told, then i was like "he's right, that is what it is". To me it's not like dryer sheets though. Jordan's Legend is a delicious gourmand for the price, especially with the coffee bean note. Gives it something different. Oh, what do you like about Republic's Metal Rain? Certain notes or qualities?
AF first Instinct Together, MB Individual, Pepe Jeans Celebrate you haven't steered me wrong yet. I have passed on the Ed Hardy L&L I will give it a shot now!
Great video presentation, Ross! Thanks! I have quite a few of those fragrances, most from your recommendations! I hope you and yours have a wonderful New Year! Blessings to you!
I know you are an ADG fan. I saw Paris Hilton's Just Me for Men at Burlington and knew nothing about it. Reviews say an ADG clone, perhaps the best. Your thoughts?
I have 5 of these although that Pepe Jenes is on the list for 2022. I remember when MB Individual was NOT a cheapie lol. Back in my fragrance discovery phase that scent used to be my “ Seal the Deal “ fragrance. 😂🤣😂🤣
Great video Ross, some I never heard of on your list I will look out for. You should do full grooming on your channel and cover beard oils/products would love to hear your take on some of them.
Brother I love your channel. I’m late to the channel but your content is fantastic. I have some of these fragrances. I wish I saw this video on Friday when I saw three of these fragrances at the Maxx. I only blind bought the penguin premium blend because I have two other penguin fragrances. Now I know about emblem intense and ambercrombie. I should not have passed on them. Now I have to pick up 3 am and that Pepe fragrance because of this review. Great review!! Thank you for opening my eyes on some new cheapies.
I’ve been in Portland for almost 2 years now and have yet to see a CK One summer flanker. I’ve seen them everywhere else I’ve lived, but they don’t like sending them this way 😂
Great video, i will be keeping an eye out for these colognes. I don't know if Perry ellis red 360 is cheap in the states but in the Uk it's super cheap and a really good aqua de gio kind of smell to it so i personally would add this to a cheap collecrion.
I have Bentley for Men Intense and they send me also the Bentley for Men sample and I also prefer the classic version, because strangely its more intense than the Intense version without incense note, I can hear more the rum note and I really like it
Yeah i must say, i have both the Bentley For Men, as well as the Intense version. I got love for both of them, but the original For Men does take the win on versatility. It's just a little more user friendly. Both are amazing, but if you are watching your dough, get the "For Men" and you'll be set 🙂
Love when you drop cheapie Vids! I’ve snagged most everyone of those in the wild (your fault Ross) because of your descriptions. Enjoyed it happy new year stay safe everyone…
I use to wear love and luck when it first came out years ago , i recently bought a bottle of Amazon and it smells really light and diff now .. my bottle doesn’t have Ed hardy logo on bottle and the sticker on bottom f doesn’t say by Christian adigarr . Is it a fake ?? Bought another at kohls seems to smell really weak as well it use to smell so much better and last longer
Pepe Jeans Celebrate is fire 🔥🔥🔥 always get's that what are you wearing question it smells delectable. Portfolio Elite classy frag for under 20. Also worth a sniff is M eau de parfum from Banana Republic. Fig,plum, sage, sandalwood and musk. Has a sophisticated air. Great video as always brother 💯

Banana Republic Icon Tobacco and Tonka Bean would be my pick at $19.

I've bought many without ever smelling based on your review...aint failed me yet brother! Appreciate you! Justsayin...

Just got HB reversed. Love it! A great cheapie find for me.
Hey fellas. Where do you typically get your cologne? I’m new to this community and the prices on Amazon are higher. And F BLACK is legit ! Thanks

Just got a bottle of Hugo Reversed today for $20! Excited to try it

MB induviduel
ABF first instinc together

Great list and super enjoyable watch. I have five of these, most thanks to you. Enjoy each one.
Don’t forget the English Laundry line. Some of the best clones for still $12.99. They even have small bottle sets. I can attest half these I’ve blind bought on your recommendations and they have all lived up to your recommendation.
I really like the way they smell, just wish they performed better
Wow! This was your best cheapie list yet!
Love Hugo Boss Reversed! Bought and tried Sean John 3am and couldn't stand it (Hamster cage vibes) and tossed it. Jimmy Choo Man Ice is another good one for $25-$30 if you see it in a rack store.
Ross! Abercrombie and Fitch first instinct together is the truth! What does the PE élite box look like? This has been the one I have been wanting to try!
The box looks just like the bottle. Basic box.
That's a cool shirt. Nice design, nice color, and fits perfectly
I've been debating on a pepe jeans fragrance. Haven't heard anybody else talk about it but now I'm gonna have to try it. Thanks TLTG
Great list and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

AF first Instinct Together, MB Individual, Pepe Jeans Celebrate you haven't steered me wrong yet. I have passed on the Ed Hardy L&L I will give it a shot now!
I have Davidoff Run Wild. It actually is a good pleasant Spring/Summer freshie.
Great video presentation, Ross! Thanks! I have quite a few of those fragrances, most from your recommendations! I hope you and yours have a wonderful New Year! Blessings to you!
Excellent list Ross. I either have or have had all these but one, the new CK summer.
I know you are an ADG fan. I saw Paris Hilton's Just Me for Men at Burlington and knew nothing about it. Reviews say an ADG clone, perhaps the best. Your thoughts?

Back to ya roots love it bro
Great video Ross, some I never heard of on your list I will look out for. You should do full grooming on your channel and cover beard oils/products would love to hear your take on some of them.
I've been wanting to buy that Joope Homme Ice but it's nowhere to be found in my local rack stores. I also looked online and there all out 😕🤙
Great list bro. I gotta check out Eros Flame and D&G Light Blue Eau Intense. 👍🏽
Brother I love your channel. I’m late to the channel but your content is fantastic. I have some of these fragrances.

Great list. I would add Tommy Cologne onto the list too. Great cheapie.
Hard to go wrong with any of the Penguin Blends. Can't leave off Eau de Grey Flannel either 😉
I’ve been in Portland for almost 2 years now and have yet to see a CK One summer flanker. I’ve seen them everywhere else I’ve lived, but they don’t like sending them this way 😂

Great Video. Can you do a winter gym frag video. "Great winter Gym frag to wear" something like that.
Pepe Jeans Celebrate is fire 🔥🔥🔥 always get's that what are you wearing question it smells delectable.
Portfolio Elite classy frag for under 20.
Also worth a sniff is M eau de parfum from Banana Republic. Fig,plum, sage, sandalwood and musk. Has a sophisticated air.
Great video as always brother 💯
Ross, how many hats do you own? Just curious, I see a different one on your head everyday.
Over 400
