Cody! What's going on bro! As an OG in the fragrance game, you don't have to explain yourself. I've watched you, Marc Robes08 and Al review hundreds of bottles and appreciate all you have done in the fragcomm. You guys helped guide me to what fragrances to obtain and what to stay away from pertaining to my taste. The OG frag reviewers were brutally honest which is severely needed in modern day times. Man I miss 2010 fragcomm days...
One of the only 2 scents I own from the house. And, i have the 2016 batch. Half full bottle still. Class in a bottle. Will always be in my collection. I also own "milliseme imperial" 2014 batch. Still have 75 ml left. Still think it sucks nuts🤣 creed is a hype job lineup, IMO
After they discontinued the 120ml bottles, I gave up on the brand. The only one I bought after they Greeded up was Spice and Woods from a store where they had a 2017 bottle. I won't purchase anything from 2019 onward.
Happy I found your channel again used to be into cologne alot years ago and would watch all the time getting back into again hype you still do videos I think you do the most detailed reviews imo
Yeah, they discontinued the 4 ouncers years ago. Once the shoulders started sloping, it was all downhill from there. Soon after, the trend caught on and now most brands are adopting the smaller bottle styles while maintaining or even raising their prices. "Tis the times.
You mentioned that you asked your wife to pick up some bottles if she goes to a store in NYC. Is there a special reason why u buy from the stores instead of ordering online from one of the discount sites. I've noticed that many reviewers buy from the brick and mortar stores and seem to avoid buying online. It seems so much more expensive that way. But is there something we should know about the quality from online retailers vs the big stores?
Great Question. So the reason I prefer brick and mortar is a bit of quality control. Ordering Online adds another step to me where something can potentially go wrong, and if something DOES go wrong, I've never had a problem with going into a Brick and Mortar to address it. To be clear, I have bought a good amount of fragrances online, but I do generally prefer to buy it in person. Also there's just something about buying these things in person I prefer
Yeah they used to be 75ml and 120ml and they changed to 50ml and 100ml... The old Royal Oud that you had would have been a 75ml because originally it was only available in the 75ml bottles... After a few years they started selling it in the 120ml bottles but if you have one of the original or at least earlier bottles then it would has been a 75ml as it was the max sprayable size originally... I believe they made the change around 2017 when Creed Viking came out as I don't think I've ever seen a 120ml bottle of that fragrance... ^_^
Unfortunately it’s true. 2017 was the last year they offered 120mls. They claimed it was because their traveling customers were getting them confiscated from TSA so they went to 100 ml.
500 ml Creed bottle 🤯 slow down man. And yea I still have an old Silver Mountain Water in the 4 oz. Its almost a decade old. They haven't done the 4 oz in many years now. I'm surprised you never noticed this.

Royal oud at this point is the only "Greed" I would buy a bottle of.

@Xanovia Scents I used to enjoy watching your channel! Would you ever consider making videos again?
I would recommend checking the Creed buy/sell groups on Facebook and getting the 120ml bottles from trusted sellers honestly
Love the One-Piece shirt Cody. You all caught up so far?

@@AlphaSoul Me too! Spot on!
Hey, Cody. Do you still keep in touch with Marc Robes08 offline? Is he ever planning to come back? I hope he’s doing alright and all. ✌️
You can at times find Creed 4oz bottles online with a hefty price mark up
Miss the reviews bro your still the o.g of fragrances
Unfortunately it’s true. 2017 was the last year they offered 120mls. They claimed it was because their traveling customers were getting them confiscated from TSA so they went to 100 ml.
Great video and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
I think 'shrinkflation' was created by Creed,smaller bottles for as much or more $.
Don't feed the Creed greed.
One Piece! Do anime videos and how they remind you of your scents.

That's crazy you got to spend more money and get less juice the 4 oz that was gone a couple years ago🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
It can’t be the only company adjusting for inflation can it?!
Erolfa for summer and that’s it! Throw out the rest of the creeds.
