Of course, the scent is lively, positive, shining, simple, high-quality, inviting, attractive and very long-lasting with a beautiful cloud of scent. Bro I own fragrances for an irresponsibly amout of money, it's one of my hobbies and getting compliments is a nice side effect but it's not a priority. Over the years I especially appreciate the scents that brighten my mood and make me even more confident and so Vibrato is one of the best choices in my collection. Thank you for your work, appreciate it :)@@stayfreshproductions
@@stayfreshproductions I rarely get compliments and love all my fragrances. I can never understand how people buy fragrances to wear for other people rather than for yourself
@@isak1496the compliments are also for yourself and chances are if you’re wearing it at the very least you don’t dislike the fragrance and more times than not you’re wearing something you like and the compliments are a big bonus.
Hey Justin, I'm so glad you kept it real with Vibrato man. I've done a very similar review comparing Tygar,Arrakis, Turathi Blue to Vibrato and its the same fragrance. I've recommended Turathi Blue because it smells better to me than Arrakis and lasts a bit longer, and if price is not a biggie, I recommended Tygar, because it's the OG and it can be found easily below the Sospiro asking price. I would recommend checking out Basso from Sospiro because it's essentially Oligarch, but with better performance and actually available to buy. Great video, love this series!
Never tried Tygar but I bought Vibrato. Yes it is over priced but most fragrances these days are over priced. I only buy these type of fragrances if I have a discount code. I wore Vibrato one day to work and received a lot compliments and co-workers writing down the name of the fragrance. I am happy with my purchase but 325$ is too much.
Its really interesting as someone who recently joined the fragrance community from the watch community the different use of words for fragrances that are similar to others. In the watch community the word "homage" is used for watches that are securely in the grey area between a total knockoff and something that takes some elements of inspiration but for the most part is original. Lots of arguing over the criteria there too.
I like Dior Homme Sport and I, personally, think it's totally different from Dior Homme 2020. I wear both. However, now that I think about it, there isn't a Dior Home Sport aftershave that I've been able to find, so I do use the Dior Homme aftershave when I wear Sport because they are similar enough that it pretty much works. Great work, bro. It's like how I think CK eternity is just a copycat of Davidoff Cool Water, but no one else seems to think they smell similar.
I tried Vibrato & the ginger opening really reminds me of L'home by YSL which I got for like 50. bucks. To be fair, the first day a wore the sample of Vibrato to work I got a compliment & it does have some green notes that separate it from L'home or Tygar, I think but $350? Ouch!
I’m not an expert by any means, more like an eager novice but Vibrato was something special that grabbed ahold of me. I only have a sample right now (because of the price, like you said) but goodness that is some special smelling stuff. Sweet but with some things going on that I just can’t get enough of. I’ll save(and hope the price drops) and splurge on this one. I’m a patchouli guy but this knocked me off my patchouli obsession if only for a little while.
Yeah, I also got Noire Ambre when that big batch hit the discounters a couple of years ago; agree it's a really nice amber scent, but hardly unique. There are so many quality amber scents that paying eBay hostage negotiation is unnecessary if you're just getting it out of FOMO.
I hope it never happens to the nuit flanker. I really hate other fragrance channels on UA-cam. You just know they buy these in bulk before making a video psyching everyone and their grandmother to buy it and then turning around and making more money on side via illegal price gouging us Ebay. I can't wait for the day a UA-camrs Ebay account name gets found out and theyre one of the ones scalping the market.
I don't understand why you're not at 100.000 subs by now. Your contents are very thought through and your reviews are fantastic. Your collections and suggestions are soo good, plus you're very very easy on the eyes.. Keep it up, bro!
Thank you Edward. I think it’s because videos like this are not what most people want to see. But I’m hoping to make it there with an audience of people like you who appreciate this kind of content. 🙏🏾
For what its worth i originally agreed with the Vibrato assesment but as I worked my way through the decant, it grew on me. Especially considering i had a side by side decant of Tygar; I just found that Sospiro lasted longer and was an overall better scent. The bail in the coffin is that its not uncommon to get Sospiro at discounter these days anywhere from 175 to 220. At that prices its just a much betyer buy than Tygar. Big shout out to Justin for turning me on to DecantX
Love this series! And I absolutely agree on the SoP...always felt like most of BN9 fragrances were subpar quality and overpriced. While I loved Bleecker and Andy Warhol, I'd rather choose Nio and Plum Japonais respectively for their quality.
Agree with them all except Vibrato. I find it quite different to Tygar in its own way whether up close or in the air. and unlike most, I respectfully disagree that they are overhyped. The only fault of fragrances like afternoon swim, vibrato and tygar is that in the eyes of the fragrance aficionado, they are too simple. But sometimes there’s beauty in simplicity so long as no compromise is being made in the quality of ingredients used and the overall craftsmanship.
I’ve been wearing vibrato and like most of my colognes my girlfriend has had a few spins with it (gave her my addiction to niche) and when doing so not only up close on myself which is lovely, even in the air with whiffs as she passes by it is delectable ‼️ maybe my nose is trained to smell notes and know what they mean but I don’t ever put that much thought when smelling perfume on others. I get the same powdery, grapefruit and flow in the air as I do up close which is why of my 5 scent signature rotation for everything in life aside which are stars of my 20+ cologne collection and putting my nose on 100’s of scents over time this one is top 3 .
Bond no 9... I'll just give a *sigh* and leave it at that... I've never even got my nose on Tygar... Is it great? I'll see if I can smell it somewhere here...
You're roughing up some big-boy sensitive feathers today, brotha! LOL! 😂 I loved the video, Justin. I have Bvlgari Tygar and I almost buy Vibrato. Now, keep in mind that Tygar costs more than Vibrato. Tygar goes for $349 vs Vibrato's $325. I did sample Arrakis and quite frankly, I didn't like it. Not even if I pay $20 bucks. Hehe.
Went with Emperor Extrait for an Aventus clone, but I had tried SOP twice in samples and was never a fan, it has something in it I can't stand and the bow tie turned me off before I tried the samples.... PV EE gets me compliments, a lot, by the way. I did get a new Dior Homme Sport as I ran out of an older 2008 or so bottle and nothing today is like it was in the early 2ks. Loved the old versions, new are okay but I really miss the old school Dior Homme Sport.
Ohh and about the dior scent you speak about... Dior homme eau the cologne is with the dior homme parfum the best of the line, at least for me smelling on my man ❤
$325 for Vibrato? $220 here in Serbia which is a good deal. Arrakis Spirit of Kings is also great alternative. Arrakis is not bursting of citruses and with more amber/woody notes it makes it the most likeable among the rest. I'm very picky in the summer cuz I can't stand strong citruses or blue fragrances.
Great video and I enjoyed it and I like bond no 9 scent of peace for him and Dior Homme 2020 and Dior Homme Sport 2021 and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed day
Have this with 2 fragrance of mine .. My Insolance so not the "just" Insolance by Guerlain. Its of the market and i found it online for around 250 euro (30ml) can not buy it because .... 💸 just cant for a designer fragrance. Also my sweet crush (love it so much) TF orchid soleil.. why oh why they took it of the market😢 Still have a 50 bottle 'half full' but afther that i am lost ... Also found it online 350 euro 😮😮 Much love from Amsterdam
I got my Issey Noir Ambre @ TJ Maxx a couple of years ago....in a messed up box...lol...but the bottle was perfect...for like $50. Love it ! Scent of Peace....no thanks...especially for the price ! I actually think..Bond #9's are ALL overpriced. I prefer Al Haramain Amber Oud Ruby over Untold...AND...BR 540. I sampled Vibrato and Tygar....and I own 2 clones of Tygar...so..I will just stick to my clones of it.
I got Noir Ambre for £49 here in the UK. I'd been looking for it for a while and it just popped up on a discounter's website for one day, and I happened to see it. I pounced. I'm happy. :)
Great video but I disagree with Vibrato. It takes the same Tygar DNA yes, but it makes it different enough in a way that makes it stand out from the other Tygar clones. You can also get it off discounters for literally 200 bucks or maybe even lower. Plus the performance is miles better than Tygar so, considering everything, I’d say it’s worth it.
Thanks for the tip on Sospiro JC!!! Xerjoff and it's other brands never appealed to me, I don't even like Naxos, too much Lavender. I also got Noir Ambre at a fantastic price. Will check Arrakis. Thanks again JC!!!
Just got a used bottle (95ml left) of Noir Ambre two months ago for 70€ (Europe). I love it so much. I have also tested Raghba Wood Intense, don’t like it.
If we have a difference of opinion can we duke it out on Street Fighter? That seems to be the best idea. Good looking out on an alternative to Issey Miyake Noir Ambre. I want a bottle will gladly take something similar. As far as an alternative for Untold I’d rather have one of the Al Haramain clones.
I had to delete my earlier comment, but here’s my updated take. Sospiro Vibrato isn’t groundbreaking, though it is a good fresh fragrance. Is it worth the $325 price tag? Absolutely not. It's a dumb rich ‘luxury fresh scent’ or for those willing to splurge. Essentially, it’s Afternoon Swim but with better projection, and just better in general. What I do love is the scent bubble it creates around you, especially in warm weather where its projection really shines!
The reasons I subscribed are your willingness to say you are not a fan of a fragrance and, lol, I play trumpet too. Stay steady, I appreciate your content.
I love the concept, video & series as always Justin. My favourite part was, and this came as no shock, when you apologized & admitted you felt icky for inadvertently helping the spike in popularity and price of Untold. You're a class act, Justin, and that's one of the main reasons I enjoy your content as much as I do. Be safe, my brother.
I concur with all above you wrote !! Not many folks have courage to admit that they might be accountable for price spike. I admire Justin transparency and his open mind and acknowledgement of facts. Brawo!
@@gabrielakras9570 Justin is easily my go to when it comes to Reviewers (I'd never call him an Influencer as he doesn't push people to get the products he mentions, which I truly admire). He's truly in a class all his own, in my books.
I suspected that Vibrato might make an appearance. You've saved me money! I've a few holidays this year, starting with France in June, so need to be much more frugal with my purchases.
Your taste and mine are bery similar, so i always put your videos atop the others. I'm looking to buy sospiro vibrato and where i live, it's cheaper than bvlgari tygar. U have never tried the OG Tygar. In this case, would you say vibrato is a good option?
In think Vibrato a is a good option if you enjoy it! I don’t dislike it, it’s just not social enough for me to warrant the price. But if the price is not an issue for you, you’ll like it.
The Demi Rawling fans will be mad at you for dissing her latest hype beast Vibrato. 🤣 But I agree with you I tried a sample and it's not worth the inflated price.
These videos are great, sometimes hype trains can blind people in the problems that the fragrance has. Keep them up, let’s call these videos the anti hype trains or the slow down your horses videos.
Man I normally agree with all of his choices but issy noir hombre is incredible.....it's warm, amber, woody and dry....I wore it to a Christmas party and I had 4 different women come up and sniff me and say how good I smelled and they were trying to pick out who it was in the group that smelled so damn good. It's a very cozy and comforting scent and worth every penny if you can't get it for it's original price.
I will always pick the Vibrato over Tigar anytime for the day . Price wise, Vibrato is well- positioned & has more complex structure . The very reasons why is decided to get Vibrato and not Tigar is the price( $325 vs $400) & Tigar performance/longevity is mediocre to my skin.
As a new "hardcore fan" of your channel I´m specially glad about this content and your clarification concerning the Armaf-Clone of Baccarat Rouge. Your recent video announcing that this clone was available again on a special platform could be easily misread as advertising - which I found frankly not in your style and regrettable. I think your independent voice is way to important in this fast-paced, rather crazy and fundamentally changing business to be jeopardized. The clarifications concerning "niche" versus "luxury" and questioning prizes versus value and quality and unique profile (often you get more of the same but screamingly loud with synthetics and more expensive; now even the brands clone themselves...😕 sorry that I sound like grumpy old grandpa, but it is getting kind of crazy...) is extremly valuable...so please stay on course...👍
Great review as always….and for me your bang on the money…. I got a bottle of Noir Amber before it was discontinued……for me amazing . But I’ll give you two to get your hands on you’ll love . Halcyon by Soma parfums….wow.. Gallivant Gdańsk…..both are amazing and you don’t hear so much about them. Try these out and if you do let me know what you think.
I found and bought Noir Ambre for about $80 range last year and it wasn't cheap but it's not so bad for a really good fragrance imho. But for Tygar! Man I think even the original is overpriced for what it is so I absolutely agree with you with Sospiro Justin.
How can someone get mad at you is a mystery. You’re the personification of Valium, but in a good way 😂😂. I mean you’re voice is calming, what you say is always polite and, sometimes our opinions may differ, but it’s perfectly fine. Can you imagine how boring would be talking to someone you always agree with? Great video as usually 👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome review. Love the honesty. Got a sample of Vibrato from lucky scent. I'm hoping I really like it, we'll see. Basso from sospiro is really nice though
Awhile back I Blind bought Raghba wood intense, didnt like it at all. More importantly, I dont blame Justin for this pick. This cologne was my intro into oud + woods and I found out quickly I dont like it....
Hello Justin, how are you? Great job on the video and list. AFNAN TURATHI BLUE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A CLONE OF TYGAR????.I PAID $30 FOR MINE. HAVE YOU TRIED IT OR HEARD OF IT?? STAY SAFE BROTHER
The Vibrato comparison with the Tygar is simply spot on! In the air, you cannot tell the difference between them. Not to mention that in my opinion, both scents are overpriced for what they smell like.
When thinking about compliments I always wonder how many people actually dislike a perfume but obviously would never say it... for every person that likes/loves a scent there might be two who dislike it.. 😅 so in that sense even compliments do not tell the whole story.. But we don´t care about the potential dislikers do we 🤣, I know I don´t!
It's fine but I love vibrato more than anything I put my nose but I get where your coming from nothing unique about it it just last all night on me and smell it for a couple days on my laundry I don't know I love it even if it was complented heavy i just love the way it smells i feel like a boss when i got it on but if its a clon of tygar ill have to grab it but vibrato is alot cheaper on eBay
@@stayfreshproductions So I have smelled sample of Bvlgari Tygar. I quite liked it. Not the most complicated scent profile, but it just seemed a well done scent, plus gave me those endorphin tingle with smelling. My question is if I like that should I go for any of the scents talked about? Ie Bvlgari Tygar, Vibrato, or Arrakis? The first two seem to only be 20- 40 bucks difference in price. In that case is the bvlgari more the worth it buy over the Vibrato for the similar price point? Thanks btw
I enjoy this kind of videos. I think we had enough of possitive-only-fluffy-pink-perfect world fragrance reviews. Im not saying be a hater but express your opinion even if negative couse i think its welcomed.
I hope you enjoy the video, and that you don’t get upset!
And yes, I know I spelled "pleasant" wrong at 3:57. 🙃
Demi Rawling told me to slap you if I encounter you for calling out her beloved vibrator, I mean Vibrato.

This might be a hard question to answer, but you think you would like it just as much if you’d never received a single compliment? Just curious.

Afnan Turathi Blue is almost identical to Sospiro Vibrato, just a slight touch less sweet. It’s also a fraction of the price.
I have non of these. But i think collecting fragrances can turn into an addiction? I have a small variety for every season and good to go!
It can definitely be addictive!
Can you please do a full review on Sosprio Basso 👏?
Scent of Peace was just too linear for me,it never changed or progressed it was just too boring for the price.
To each their own. I love Scent of Peace for Him. I also think Vibrato is incredible. Even better. But you do you and let it be
Scent of peace for him is a waste of money, if you’re going to buy it or already bought it… like me. I sold it several months later after I bought it.
Lol the thumbnail is killing me 😂, great genre we need more content like this 🤝🏽
Your taste and mine are bery similar, so i always put your videos atop the others. I'm looking to buy sospiro vibrato and where i live, it's cheaper than bvlgari tygar. U have never tried the OG Tygar. In this case, would you say vibrato is a good option?
In think Vibrato a is a good option if you enjoy it! I don’t dislike it, it’s just not social enough for me to warrant the price. But if the price is not an issue for you, you’ll like it.
lucky I got noir ambre below retail. Awesome, but definitely not an everyday casual wear. Lol
The Demi Rawling fans will be mad at you for dissing her latest hype beast Vibrato. 🤣 But I agree with you I tried a sample and it's not worth the inflated price.
These videos are great, sometimes hype trains can blind people in the problems that the fragrance has. Keep them up, let’s call these videos the anti hype trains or the slow down your horses videos.
Raghba wood intense is fire 🔥...for $20...the scent is powerful, well blended, somehow upscale and classic..for older gentlemen thar like sweet scent
Man I normally agree with all of his choices but issy noir hombre is incredible.....it's warm, amber, woody and dry....I wore it to a Christmas party and I had 4 different women come up and sniff me and say how good I smelled and they were trying to pick out who it was in the group that smelled so damn good. It's a very cozy and comforting scent and worth every penny if you can't get it for it's original price.
I never said it wasn’t a great fragrance!
I will always pick the Vibrato over Tigar anytime for the day . Price wise, Vibrato is well- positioned & has more complex structure . The very reasons why is decided to get Vibrato and not Tigar is the price( $325 vs $400) & Tigar performance/longevity is mediocre to my skin.
Sauvage edt is still my signature. I’m hearing great reviews about Louis Vuitton Lovers
As a new "hardcore fan" of your channel I´m specially glad about this content and your clarification concerning the Armaf-Clone of Baccarat Rouge. Your recent video announcing that this clone was available again on a special platform could be easily misread as advertising - which I found frankly not in your style and regrettable. I think your independent voice is way to important in this fast-paced, rather crazy and fundamentally changing business to be jeopardized. The clarifications concerning "niche" versus "luxury" and questioning prizes versus value and quality and unique profile (often you get more of the same but screamingly loud with synthetics and more expensive; now even the brands clone themselves...😕 sorry that I sound like grumpy old grandpa, but it is getting kind of crazy...) is extremly valuable...so please stay on course...👍
Great review as always….and for me your bang on the money….
I got a bottle of Noir Amber before it was discontinued……for me amazing .
But I’ll give you two to get your hands on you’ll love .
Halcyon by Soma parfums….wow..
Gallivant Gdańsk…..both are amazing and you don’t hear so much about them.
Try these out and if you do let me know what you think.
I will try them!
@@stayfreshproductions look forward to hearing what you think of them…….they will surprise you.
I found and bought Noir Ambre for about $80 range last year and it wasn't cheap but it's not so bad for a really good fragrance imho. But for Tygar! Man I think even the original is overpriced for what it is so I absolutely agree with you with Sospiro Justin.
You got a great deal on Noir Ambre as well! It's so overpriced today.
How can someone get mad at you is a mystery. You’re the personification of Valium, but in a good way 😂😂. I mean you’re voice is calming, what you say is always polite and, sometimes our opinions may differ, but it’s perfectly fine. Can you imagine how boring would be talking to someone you always agree with? Great video as usually 👍🏻👍🏻
Haha, thank you 😊
Where’s your shirt from??
Madewell
Honesty will always shine
Awesome review. Love the honesty. Got a sample of Vibrato from lucky scent. I'm hoping I really like it, we'll see. Basso from sospiro is really nice though
I hope so too!
I got noir ambre for way less than $200. Glad I got it when I did
Tygar also does not deserve that price
You just get turathi blue from Afnan for 30 bucks
Awhile back I Blind bought Raghba wood intense, didnt like it at all. More importantly, I dont blame Justin for this pick. This cologne was my intro into oud + woods and I found out quickly I dont like it....
Thanks for understanding!
I agree 💯 on the Dior homme sentiment. I own both and it's redundant. Dior homme 2020 is the better buy. More refined and not zesty like the sport
Another great video, Justin. Also, folks, we DO NOT want to fight Justin. He can throw Hadoukens.
😆
Bylgari tyger and sospiro have almost the same price tyger 240€ vibrato 260€ which one should I pick
Have you tried them both?
Hello Justin, how are you? Great job on the video and list. AFNAN TURATHI BLUE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A CLONE OF TYGAR????.I PAID $30 FOR MINE. HAVE YOU TRIED IT OR HEARD OF IT?? STAY SAFE BROTHER
Haven't tried it yet, but I've heard of it!
The Vibrato comparison with the Tygar is simply spot on! In the air, you cannot tell the difference between them. Not to mention that in my opinion, both scents are overpriced for what they smell like.
I’ve always thought Vibrato is super overrated. It’s only worth it at $160 or below, and even then, you can get better fragrances for the same price.
Noir Ambre for $200?! In the EU it's around $75. LOL
I agree 100 percent about vibrato I bought and sold it the next day so disappointed in that fragrance
i've worn almost every cologne their is and none of them get me the compliments that hawas has gotten me.
"Aventus adjacent fragrances" 😄Great language. Elegant euphemism for clone. 👌
Agree! Tom Ford’s prices($290-$590)👎🏿, but I like Lattafa’s spot on clones of Tom Ford’s scents👍🏿
Tom Fraud
Vibrato !!!!! It’s expensive I’d paid 350 and the smell goes away after 8 hrs then at 10 hrs later there’s no smell of the fragrance at all.
What matters most is that you love the smell. And 8 hours is a long time! 🔥
A great replacement for Vibrato is lattafa taweel, try it.
Vibrato smells like Ingenious Ginger to me ! I picked that one up instead 😊😊
I love Ingenious Ginger, and much more than VIbrato!
@@stayfreshproductions it’s soooo good
If you live in a hot and warm climate than Dior homme sport is the much better option, it’s hard to appreciate it if your weather is mild…
When thinking about compliments I always wonder how many people actually dislike a perfume but obviously would never say it... for every person that likes/loves a scent there might be two who dislike it.. 😅 so in that sense even compliments do not tell the whole story.. But we don´t care about the potential dislikers do we 🤣, I know I don´t!
Haha you're right, we can't concern ourselves with people who don't approve of us!
Thank you so much for the review. Hope you love it 😊
I love it! Thank you!
@@stayfreshproductions You're welcome. So happy that you love it!
How do y’all find these cheaper clone fragrances
I may not always agree with you but... Thanks for staying real
Respect 🙏🏾
I picked up Issey Miyake Noir Ambre for $100 CAN... worth the price for me
Thanks for your honesty and alternatives.
It's fine but I love vibrato more than anything I put my nose but I get where your coming from nothing unique about it it just last all night on me and smell it for a couple days on my laundry I don't know I love it even if it was complented heavy i just love the way it smells i feel like a boss when i got it on but if its a clon of tygar ill have to grab it but vibrato is alot cheaper on eBay
Happy National Fragrance Day Justin 🎉
Have the very cool body spray of that dior sport, love the scent and super easy to throw into my workout bag. Love 2020 as well.
I bought mine at $170 would you think it’s worth that price?
If you absolutely love it, then it’s worth any price you paid for it!
So do you think Tygar is better and more worth it then Vibrato?
Not as a blind buy!
@@stayfreshproductions So I have smelled sample of Bvlgari Tygar. I quite liked it. Not the most complicated scent profile, but it just seemed a well done scent, plus gave me those endorphin tingle with smelling. My question is if I like that should I go for any of the scents talked about? Ie Bvlgari Tygar, Vibrato, or Arrakis? The first two seem to only be 20- 40 bucks difference in price. In that case is the bvlgari more the worth it buy over the Vibrato for the similar price point? Thanks btw
I enjoy this kind of videos. I think we had enough of possitive-only-fluffy-pink-perfect world fragrance reviews. Im not saying be a hater but express your opinion even if negative couse i think its welcomed.
Glad i bought Tygar when it first came out for $300. Now it's almost $400.
I still think $300 is too much 😅
But I’m glad you enjoy it!
I don’t understand the hype over vibrato. Strong ginger nothing fresh
Scent of Peace is criminally overpriced. 😂. I bought a bottle for around $170 then ended up selling it. Great content as usual.
