I love how you summed it up. The fragrance doesn't have to be expensive to be good. I have Joop Homme Ice and it's stellar. I tried Prada Luna Ocean and I wasn't impressed either.
Just bought Amber Oud Rouge because the wife and I finally sampled BR540 and fell in love. AOR did not disappoint. Didn’t even realize they had a Bleu Edition so I’ll have to check that out. Thanks Ross! Stay up bro!
I love PLR Ocean. Its nothing super special but I love the way it smells, bought it couple weeks ago and enjoy wearing it. People say it reminds them of dylan blue and I see it but I 100% prefer ocean over dylan blue.
Prada Luna ocean is beautiful. I was waiting on your take on it as all other fragrance guys have knocked it back. First spray I was hooked and has got me more compliments than any of my 30+ fragrances.
Luna Rosa Ocean surprised me on the dry down. It becomes more floral and soapy which I liked considering i wasn’t the biggest fan of the Dylan Blue-like opening
Oceans is one I really wanna try. I look forward to your thoughts after spending time with it. I've had no interest in Explorer Untra Blue, but now I'll be looking forward to your thoughts in that as well. Halloween Man Hero is one I've wanted for a minute. Now I know I need it.
Hey TLTG, If you can start reviewing one best fragrance from each line that will be great. It will help young collectors like me on strict budget to grow the collection with less strain on wallet. Good work ✌ I love watching your review videos 🙂
I actually picked up Joop Homme Ice at Burlington last December. Definitely cheapy gold in my opinion as well. You won't be smelling like everybody else wearing it either which I like.
Where did u guys get your Prada ocean. Mine seems like it runs off too soon. No longevity. Like the smell tho but goes way too fast or I’m just nose blind to it. I’m willing to buy again from a diff place tho if that even matters.
@@raphael9197 I bought mine at Macys. No issues. I do have dry skin, so I have to spray more. I know Macys has sample packs that include Ocean . Maybe try that and see how it works.
@@raphael9197 I got mine at Macy’s as well. Honestly I have no issues with performance, I did a test where I did two sprays on my hand after I got out of the shower, even though it was faint I could still pick up the fragrance when I woke up the next morning
@@APHinchen yea I have a couple buddies I stop by and talk to every now and again at dillards. I was thinking to go test theirs. It may just be my skin. I reapply all my frags any but was concerned
Glad you finally got a hold of Joop Homme Ice! I was quite surprised when I got mine on a blind buy but I like Joop stuff. Now you have to try Joop Homme Wild!😎🤙🏽👊🏽
Hey my Cajun Brother! I was not sure of the Prada Ocean at first either. But it’s has grown on me and I love it. My wife also thinks it’s really good. I think you will come around! Great video, love the selection for this video! Be good, Stay Safe… Keep the videos coming Shá…. Lol.👍
LOVE Joop! Ice… It’s an underrated, slept on gem! I’ve shared decants of this to several people.. To me I get a blue pixy stix with Original Santal vibes, with the cinnamon and the fruits..
Nice video!! I have the Joop ice and I think it smells great! I haven’t worn it out anywhere, just a few times around the house after a shower! I would really like to see you do a full review on it, and what situation you would wear it in. Thanks
I have both Joop Homme Ice and Halloween Man Hero. I use them a lot even now in the autumn here in North Texas. I love them both, in fact I like Hero so much I am 1/2 done in my bottle and it's the 125 ml needless to say it's my dumb reach with cool water aquaman. Joop is just too smooth, it projects nicely, it's very pleasant and safe, it lasts a decent amount on my skin about 5h. Both are winners I would like to see what your full review of them will be after some use.
I got mine( joop ice) here in Atlanta at Burlington.. few months ago... ASH from gentscent put me into that..joop ice is really under the radar and you are so right..it's unique and perform great..that plumb note 🔥 🔥
Saw Joop Homme Ice at Burlington a long time ago before the reviews came out. Didn't pick it up because I thought it was nothing special but now regretting that decision based upon the reviews I've been seeing. Now you can't find them in the rack stores😑
Hey Ross! I really enjoyed this haul video and I can't wait to see your reviews on all of em over time! Hell, I didn't even know about Amber Oud Blue and it's definitely going on my radar, especially since I had to sell my BDC Parfum! 😭😭😭 If you don't mind, I'd really like to see your review on that one first. Now, I did sample Prada Oceans and I enjoyed the hell out of it. I will say that between Black and Carbon it's the least favorite of mine, but it's definitely going into my collection once it's at around that $45 mark at discounters! Funny thing is that you mentioned that Carmel note being at the forefront and the Iris being sort of scarce off the paper. When I sprayed it on my skin, I had the OPPOSITE effect, believe it or not! I got a very similar Iris vibe to Prada L'homme and Eau, but that Carmel note was barely there for me. I'll be interested to see if those two notes reverse off of your skin as well.
Great video as always! Would love to see your first impressions on Nishane Karagoz, I have a full bottle and I love it. Karagoz is one that I can see a lot of people disliking though, very polarizing.
Nice haul. Luna Rossa Ocean a bit disappointing so far or maybe I expected more. I'm a fan of Mont Blanc Explorer but on first sniff did not find Ultra Blue to be anything special. I found Joop Homme Ice at Burlington last year and I love it...a very unique fragrance.
I will circle back around to joop ice , last time I put my nose on it. Wasn’t my jam. Absolute is beautiful. Joop frags I don’t like so maybe it’s my biased. Halloween is a nice one, easy going wear. Amber Oud is solid, last so long on my skin. Great value/quality clone . Solid haul!
Great video Bro, Yeah, I got joop ice over the summer. It really caught me off guard with the plum and cooling airy vibe. I get excellent Performance from joop. People seem to enjoy the smell. Plenty of compliments. I got Halloween Man X I dig it. I've had Halloween Man Shot in my cart forever. I might just go ahead and get it. ✌
I bought the gold edition and rogue … I had to return return them… I couldn’t smell them at all… which Is weird because I smelled the gold edition at a store and it was a monster… lasted on the tester strip for 2 weeks and was on my clothes even after a wash..
When my father was alive I would give him fragrances that I didn't like. I gave him the one edt bc I hated and I still do. I would definitely give him joop homme ice. I'll probably have to find some random guy at the gym to give these fragrances away to. Bc I have several collecting dust on my shelf.
Prada Luna Rossa Ocean is one of my favorite of all time. It’s so uplifting and the dry down is soapy clean as always. I always find myself gravitate to grab it everyday.
Big fan of the Luna Rosa line, Carbon, Black, Original and Sport in that order for me. i've used 3 samples of Ocean at work and not been impressed at all, neither have any other male co workers. the girls seemed to like it tho but its a hard pass for me
Great video mate. I'm really enjoying the smell of Joop Ice, also recently bought Joop Homme ETP which I'm liking as well. Have you tried it? Love your comment regarding the price of a fragrance, just because it's expensive doesn't mean it's good. Also what it the fragrance behind you in this video, it's on the middle shelf next to the box with what looks like an X on it? The colours on the bottle caught my eye. Cheers
Like to know your thoughts on Hacivat's Darker version, Karagoz. I feel like fragrantica bashes on it giving it a 3.7. It's not everyone's cup of tea but it seems interesting enough to separate itself from other fragrances.
I went out and grabbed Luna Rossa Ocean a while back without smelling it, just because I love to gamble sometimes haha. I've worn it 3 times and just not into it. It's just "okay" to me.
Damn, makes me wanna run out and pick up Halloween man hero. I’ve had Joop ice for a while and for the price I love it man. Its very different and I usually reach for it when I’m just bumming out
Nothing wrong with Ultra Blue, it's just too boring, lots of better frags in that category. Halloween Hero would be so nice if it performed better on my skin. On me it has a melon-like smell that I love.
Prada ocean was really disappointing. Tried it and had to actually wash it off when I got home. There's a screechy synthetic vibe to it that just smells cheap.
The fact that i just found out right now, gucci intense oud for 80 dollars and dior homme parfum the 75 ml one for 100 and im a 18 old guy still in school, who cant aford both of these discontinued gems, it sucks man urghhh
I'm not sure how to feel about Joop Homme Ice. I have had it for a while. Just haven't spent much time with it. Def will revisit it soon. I really like Halloween Man Hero. Really good scent. I did not care for Ocean when I smelled it. Not bad, just not feeling it. I haven't gotten my nose on any of the others yet although I do like me some Al Haramain Amber Oud line. I have Gold, Rouge, and Tobacco. All really great and well worth buying.
Wearing prada ocean today so good. When it drys down, it does smell like the salty ocean haha! I don't get 50mls either 100 or 200 is they way to go. 50 won't last me very long
I don't wanna be the complainer type. .But can you use your other mic in the future? You sound robotic and static-y. I just don't like that background high pitched squeal coming from this mic.
I was very disappointed from Prada Luna Rossa Ocean too. Luna Rossa is one of my most favorite lines on the market right now. I love every one of Luna Rossa. But i expected this. Previous, all original Prada Luna Rossa fragrances were made by Daniela Andrier with her unbelievable addictive, unique DNA in this line. She is to me one of best parfumers on planet (yes much better than overhyped Alberto Morillas for example). Prada Ocean was made by Anne Flipo and Carlos Benaim so i expected downfall of this line after change of parfumer. Generic, boring and weak performing blue fragrances for which they asking too much money in my opinion. Biggest disappointment of 2021 to my nose.
I love how you summed it up. The fragrance doesn't have to be expensive to be good. I have Joop Homme Ice and it's stellar. I tried Prada Luna Ocean and I wasn't impressed either.

Those guys just restocked on Stronger with You Leather so I had to cop that one! Great haul man, I love Prada Ocean!
I love Prada Ocean as well. .One of my favorite releases this year

Great videos,man!I like them a lot and every time i discover a new fragrance because of you.Keep it up.Greetings from Bulgaria.
Glad you finally got a hold of Joop Homme Ice! I was quite surprised when I got mine on a blind buy but I like Joop stuff. Now you have to try Joop Homme Wild!😎🤙🏽👊🏽

Luna Rosa Ocean and Y le Parfum are starting a trend of dark blue fragrances. Ocean took a sec to grow on me.
So glad you copped that Amber Oud... saw it and was debating it... will be getting the tobacco edition very soon
Nice video!! I have the Joop ice and I think it smells great! I haven’t worn it out anywhere, just a few times around the house after a shower! I would really like to see you do a full review on it, and what situation you would wear it in. Thanks
Been waiting for the Joop Ice to show up at the rack stores as well but might have to breakdown and buy it
Yeah, It's worth the price at discounters. I've only seen it at the rack stores once.
Yea I have Al Haramain Amber Oud Rouge, great fragrance, would love to see a full review on Al Haramain Oud Blue Edition, as always great job!!

Wow didn't know Amber oud blue was even a thing. If you haven't tried the gold it's a must buy
The Prada is nice like you said nothing spectacular but it is a compliment getter in my experience
Joop Homme Ice and Joop Homme Wild are absolute killers considering their price
Saw Joop Homme Ice at Burlington a long time ago before the reviews came out. Didn't pick it up because I thought it was nothing special but now regretting that decision based upon the reviews I've been seeing. Now you can't find them in the rack stores😑

I love Ultra Blue. It’s a good fresh dumb reach. I’ve been eyeing joop Homme ice. I just might have to pull the trigger tonight.
I almost threw the box out with my decants in it, didn't see them among the Styrofoam balls. Thanks Ross!
Great video as always! Would love to see your first impressions on Nishane Karagoz, I have a full bottle and I love it. Karagoz is one that I can see a lot of people disliking though, very polarizing.
Right on the money with that tobacco on joop Homme ice, love the plum in that one too. Cheapie banger!
Nice haul. Luna Rossa Ocean a bit disappointing so far or maybe I expected more. I'm a fan of Mont Blanc Explorer but on first sniff did not find Ultra Blue to be anything special. I found Joop Homme Ice at Burlington last year and I love it...a very unique fragrance.
Dang man, I've been tracking down different Invictus Aqua style fragrances. Sounds like Halloween man is my next purchase.
I got a free sample of Prada Ocean a few days ago. I didn’t like the opening but the dry down was very nice.
I will circle back around to joop ice , last time I put my nose on it. Wasn’t my jam. Absolute is beautiful. Joop frags I don’t like so maybe it’s my biased. Halloween is a nice one, easy going wear. Amber Oud is solid, last so long on my skin. Great value/quality clone . Solid haul!
Nice intro brother. Excited to see your opinion on the prada
Very nice haul and great reviews! Love your honesty!

Prada ocean is great off skin..jumped to my favorite of the line...and whole line is great
Mount blanc line they are ok fragrance their not a wao factor.., blind buy safe for sure .
I still like that perry Ellis 18.that bamboo fresheners. And been rocking the Versace oud for the cold.
Nice pick ups love the video Ross stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
Big fan of the Luna Rosa line, Carbon, Black, Original and Sport in that order for me. i've used 3 samples of Ocean at work and not been impressed at all, neither have any other male co workers. the girls seemed to like it tho but its a hard pass for me
I’ve been wondering about Joop Homme Ice for a while. It’s hard to get a concrete description of it.
Great video mate. I'm really enjoying the smell of Joop Ice, also recently bought Joop Homme ETP which I'm liking as well. Have you tried it? Love your comment regarding the price of a fragrance, just because it's expensive doesn't mean it's good.

Halloween Man X
First time here man. I've been researching about fragrancebuy canada. very informative
I like ocean can't wait on your review and hear what you have to say about it
Absolutely full review on Halloween Hero please
I found Prada Oceans odd. Don't know how I feel about it.
I just seen they got a amber oud carbon edition too
When you say aquatic watery green I think something like starwalker...don't know if that's what it was reminding you of
A bit
I got my first cologne bottle is it normal for the outside of the bottle to feel a bit wet?
I gonna have to grab amber out Bleu edition
Like to know your thoughts on Hacivat's Darker version, Karagoz. I feel like fragrantica bashes on it giving it a 3.7. It's not everyone's cup of tea but it seems interesting enough to separate itself from other fragrances.
Joop homme ice to good to be true I would like to see a full review on it thanks
I went out and grabbed Luna Rossa Ocean a while back without smelling it, just because I love to gamble sometimes haha. I've worn it 3 times and just not into it. It's just "okay" to me.
I think people dissed ultra blue because they were anticipating it to be like Creed Aventus colonge and it don't..
Love the new intro song
Damn, makes me wanna run out and pick up Halloween man hero. I’ve had Joop ice for a while and for the price I love it man. Its very different and I usually reach for it when I’m just bumming out
enjoyable video like always man keep up the good work
I've wanted to try the Amber Oud. Good Haul.
Thx Russ 😎
Nothing wrong with Ultra Blue, it's just too boring, lots of better frags in that category.
Halloween Hero would be so nice if it performed better on my skin. On me it has a melon-like smell that I love.
Wearing Halloween hero at work now
Checking in
I promise once you get your nose on Amber Oud Gold you will instantly fall it in love. Better than rouge imo
Wow, Al haramain went for gold!
Luna Rosa ocean 🌊
I love ultra blue
Joop ice reminds me of Dolce and Gabbana
Superb haul
I only liked Prada Luna Rossa Black out of that line. the rest were kind of insipid
Ultra blue’s got a blue note in ADG profundo. It gives me headache.
I don't care for profundo either, way overrated imo, however I enjoy profundo lights
Prada ocean was really disappointing. Tried it and had to actually wash it off when I got home. There's a screechy synthetic vibe to it that just smells cheap.
I thought you were gonna get the Prada Luna Rossa Extreme..lol
It sold out before I pulled the trigger
Yeahhhhhh man... it hit and as soon as I copped it, it was gone again...
When and where was this? I love that one, but my bottle is nearing it's end
Bro the al harmain blue is sold out 🕵🏿♂️🙃🙃🙃🙃
How many bottles do you think you own?
Alot
Here for it.
yeah, the caramel threw me off too...i don't really like it
The fact that i just found out right now, gucci intense oud for 80 dollars and dior homme parfum the 75 ml one for 100 and im a 18 old guy still in school, who cant aford both of these discontinued gems, it sucks man urghhh
I'm not sure how to feel about Joop Homme Ice. I have had it for a while. Just haven't spent much time with it. Def will revisit it soon.

Damn sold out 😒
Joop Ice makes me nauseous……
Damn bro
I would be really excited if you send me that ocean as a gift 🎁
I'm sure you would be
