- I know there are many of you out there who are ready to experience quality fragrances, but you're wondering if it can be done without giving up your first born and your right elbow.
This video is for you.
To put it simply, rather than just share 5 great fragrances with you, I decided to pair them up with well-known fragrances that they very closely resemble in scent profile, but deeply differ in price.
Links to all of the fragrances will be down below!

I like to spend a lot of money, I just don’t have a lot of money to spend.
Well said
Lol
I knew that “kinda” was coming
I knew something was coming and was laughing at my screen (at Justin’s face) before the ‘kinda’ came out man 😂
I also love Psychedelique, but would only want to wear that profile around the house. I can't justify the cost just for that at the moment. but I found that Reminisence Patchouli is extremely close in profile for a fraction of the cost. It's an EDT so it's not quite as dense, but still gives you that beautiful chocolate cake patchouli feel.
harod is a banger . but to me Divine Vanille has more of a bounce to it. i love it right along with herod
You are the man Justin, just love your content and comparisons! It's really enlightening and so much fun. Thank you for all your work, the editing is hilarious and wonderful as well 🙂 bravo maestro 🙂
I appreciate that! Thank you!
Hey Justin, I've just purchased Divine Vanille and it's truly as good as you said. Love at first sniff, gotta said it's about 80% similar to Herod. Thank you for suggesting that Fragrance.
Good stuff!
Good list not the daily hyped alternatives. Takes time to search these out. Thank you
Promise is so unique. I had a sample and at first it smelled like apple vinegar with rose and some spices but when my nose got used to it, oh my what a beautiful scent. And you need to try others from Frederic Malle (especially the Desert Gems collection).
The performance of essential Parfums divine Vanille are not that great but the smell is super good. For my test in terms just of smell I prefer the smell of divine Vanille better than herod.
Great content Justin. Talking about Blend Oud, recently sampled Oud Eclipse smell similar to Roja Dove Amber Aoud
Oud satin mood and Promise are on my buying list i love those so much.
Brother the way this intro was reminds me much of Henry Rollins - Liar when it was on MTV all the time. Killing it.
Love Oud Aquilaria- the fresh sweetness balanced by the deep woodiness. Another great creation by master perfumer Dominique Ropion.
Recently got a sample of Jovoy Psychédélique. Wow, awesome stuff!
really appreciate these 'higher end' clones
promise is my favorite of Frederick Malle, a wonderful scent and I have used a clone (by Parfum AE) that provides I'd say 50% of the experience, so thanks for the tip! Kenzo homme edp is wonderful, I love it..
I hope you can try Oud Aquilaria!
Psychedeique is my favorite fragrance. I wear it almost every day in the fall. I find it very easy to wear and it fits my personality perfectly. (I even wear it to work, just dial the sprays back because to me it’s a monster.)
Good video Justin👍 sotd Creed silver mountain water 👍🔥💯
Great video. Side note do you find that Kenzo EDP has similarities to Bois Impérial?
I was so worried that you were going down the clone rabbit hole for a second. I'm so glad that's not the case. 🙂 Very nice ideas though! P.S. I love the house of Jovoy! They're so underrated and not talked about enough.
Love this video and information! The one by Oman Luxury has my attention! 😮🙌🏼😮
I love Psychedelique. It's so chocolaty. I bought a bottle of Molinard's Patchouli intense, when I was in Melbourne because it was very similar. It is a little on the feminine side though. It looks different than your bottle.
My Patchouli is the EDP!
almost bought herod when joma had that crazy pdm sale a couple days ago but didnt complete the purchase cuz everyone agrees its a skin scent and even at 190 instead of 350 i couldn’t justify that spend
Get it off aura for 170

What’s aura ?
Complete website ?
I would love to hear your opinion on Naxos , great scent imo
Cause i am fungal, and i also believe that expensive perfumes are more of the brand rather than the perfumes itself. We all love better value for money.
In some cases. But not all!
Hi justin, thank you for creating such wonderful content. I was hoping to please ask your opinion?.Is Divine Vanille a little more feminine than Herod?.That's my only reservation about pulling the trigger on it?!!
I wouldn’t call it more feminine, just maybe softer edges. Have you tried it yet?
Hi Justin, thank you for coming back to me on this, I really do appreciate it🙏😎..I haven't tried it, but I have an opportunity to pick up a 100ml bottle for a very good price, but it would be, like so many others..a blind buy🫣😔.
love videos like this!
Yes i have blend oud and its good
Divine Vanille is amazing, but to me nothing beats the Herod magic. The original MFK Oud was my first signature scent when i didnt even know anything about fragrance, wore it daily, to school💀😭😂. Def reccommend getting a bottle, its the best of the line imo. Also i heard oud minèrale is going to the Signature line💯
I love Psychodelique but Molinard, although beautiful, isn’t the same vibe to me at all. I can justify having both.
Nice one 👍
I know you hate clones lol .. but we really want your take on Fragrance World Spectre Ghost... for Halloween sake! 👻
I thought when you said jovoy you were going to say you liked incident diplomatic I was going to say awe man.. whoa no warnings to try a sample first.😛
I heard that oud minerale may come back as a part of the designer line of tom ford.
Your Oud Satin Mood story is very similar to a situation I had with Saint Julep imaginary authors
hey dude. i was wondering if brass and soul was still in production? or if you by chance have an extra bottle you can spare to sell to me? super interested in trying it out!
Unfortunately it’s all gone for now! :(
But 2nd Soul is still available for a limited time.
I've got samples of both Divine Vanille and Herod, but for some reason they smell extremely smokey and sharp, a little like cigarette smoke, to me. I thought it would smell more like vanilla frosting on a cake...
Interesting…
Justin, I noticed you're sponsored by decantx. How many mls do you typically use before you get a full understanding of a fragrance? to the point of reviewing.
Hi James. I actually don’t tend to review from decants. Only full bottles. There are some fragrances that started in decant form for me, but I liked them so much that I got the bottle and wore it several times so I could review the full presentation.
Well I am going to just keep using my Brut EDP
You have a scary close %99 alternative or clone of straight to heaven by killian
I just read somewhere that TF Oud Minerale is coming back...again. (?).....Along with the new TF Vanilla Sex and TF Oud Wood Parfum.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
His face!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😂
I definitely want to ball ⚽ on a budget 😂😂😂😂
Wow you have a beautiful voice
Thank you
The intro was a masterpiece
RIP gym bag
❤️👍😏
i clicked cuz im broke, u know it.
I had a sample of oud satin mood I thought it smelled pretty nice... but my wife a whiff of it and told me to "go scrub that 💩💩 off" 🥹
