Mancera Red Tobacco, the first day I got it. Sprayed it on about 4 sprays. Then went nose blind to it and sprayed about 4 more times. Went out to dinner and man I had the restaurant lit up. A few people said I smelled nice. But I knew at that point I had over done it. 😂
You can’t go nose blind to Mancera red tobacco man. That cologne is an atomic bomb. More than 3-4 sprays and you can wake up a cemetery and it won’t be pleasant if you overspray it either. SMH
Got a sample of Black Sea, wow! What a unique and potent fragrance. I cant seem to pick the moment I would wear it, but its so different I have to add it to my collection. Another strong one.. I also sampled Blue Sapphire from Boadicea. WOW!!! Two sprays took over my room for hours. Too Pricey $$$ for me , but you have to appreciate the creativity, complexity and performance. 👏 👏 👏
I enjoyed your presentation. Looking forward to learning more from you. My current quest is for a wearable, tuberose-centric fragrance. I have Champs Lunaires by Rogue and while I really enjoy it (in private), it's a challenge to find an occasion to wear it in public. It tends to wear me.
Cool. I don’t have a ton of tuberose in my collection, but check out Navitus Parfums Eau Debonaire if you haven’t already. I think that’s the most tuberose centric fragrance I own.
Great video/choices fam...For me one of my top strongest fragrances is Turath frm Spirit of Dubai... beautiful/beautiful fragrance but strong AF...Keep em coming bro "THUMBS UP"🥊🔔
Man I have Raghba Wood Intense and it is so strong! It'll stay on me for 24 hours and like a week on my hoodie. Smells yummies, but you have to be commited to it ;)
I live in a city with hot humid and highly polluted air. Even a amouage interlude performance feels average here. But the perfumes that are brutes here are:' Marc-Antoine Barrois' encelade Pantheone roma raffaello Amouage overture Water gold's (uae's local btand) aqua bergamot
The stronger, the better is my philosophy. My skin chews through frags, I get half the longevity that UA-camrs claim. My theory is whatever UA-camrs say is the longevity, cut it in half and that’s what I’ll get. The winters here are brutal. People complain about strength and then companies gladly sell us scented water and the rest of us are mad. It was never like this 10 years ago. Basically everything was what modern people consider “beast mode”. Even EDTs were 76% alcohol volume. If I’m spending over $100 I want my fragrance to LAST. Period. I feel strongly about this.
@@bhuda_finger1004 I borderline find the moisturize first to add longevity to be an old wives tale. I do that anyways and still find majority of these modern releases to be weaker than the stuff I grew up with, there’s no doubt about that.
@Yes-Yes1 I been moisturising daily since I was a kid and stay hydrated and I get good longevity from most of my fragrances but I do agree most releases these days arent as strong as they used to be
Oh man u just said what ive been cribbing about every where i get a chance. I am a m50 and yes those were the golden years where perfumes were gold water if u compare todays watered fragrances. Even a cheap perfume like montana, aramis, safari, sergio tachini and immensity would beat the hell out of todays most of the designers. Never needed any moisturisers or oversprays.
Within my collection, Arabian Oud Tarteel Gold comes to mind, as well The Royal Oud which I don’t own yet. Many would probably choose LV Ombre Nomad over this one.
@@priyeos923 you have to start taking what these UA-camrs with a grain of salt. What they say is accurate 20-50% of the time, some def more than others.
Love your content, you always do such a clean and informative presentation. But the anal-retentive OCD freak in me is compelled to tell you that "Megamare" is pronounced something like "MEH-guh-MAR-ray"... Mare is Italian for "sea" ua-cam.com/video/u2CiJdQR_A0/v-deo.html I actually got to meet the perfumer for Orto Parisi and Nasomatto at ZGO Perfumery in San Francisco a few weeks ago, a kinda wild Italian dude named Alessandro Gualtieri... he's a little crazy, but super nice and lots of fun to hear him talk about his thought process and experimentation. Anyway, keep up the good work! And I only bust the chops of those I love. LOL
The stronger the better especially in da nyc winters 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯ty sir great video 😊 mirach from tiziana terenzi is nuclear power 🔋
Can certainly understand that.
"Portrait Of A Lady" is definitely a great choice if you love rose. Made sure I got it in my collection.

Sounds like an awkward but interesting night 😂😂
Ha. We’ve all been there

Glad you like it.
Dope video as always Sir Elliot. 💪🏾
I’d add LV Ombré Nomad and MFK Oud Satin Mood!
Great video and I enjoyed it and I like Dior homme intense and I'm going to try the other fragrances and have a blessed day

I see Nero oud . Finally, someone else beside me to speak on this fragrance, but I was the FRIST 😂😂😂😂
😆

Great list , you definitely have some bangers there 🔥🔥 SOD Turarh is one of those ones
Its never too strong! 😂💪👍👍👍
Agreed 100%
😄
Interlude 53, V Canto's Mandragola, Followed by Kerosene, Genesis by Le Frag, MFK Silk Mood Extrait, King Blue ...
Followed should be illegal. 😆
Man I have Raghba Wood Intense and it is so strong! It'll stay on me for 24 hours and like a week on my hoodie. Smells yummies, but you have to be commited to it ;)
MEGAMARE AND PARDON ARE TWO OF MY STRONGEST ONE IN MY COLLECTION
You spray Megamare on your clothes and it will never go away
Great job Elliot
Great Review 👍

Drink more water and moisturise your skin on a daily basis and don't spray in front of your nose. Just because you can't smell it dont mean it's gone

Pretty much shrinkflation for fragrances.

What are your alternatives to Nero Oudh?
Within my collection, Arabian Oud Tarteel Gold comes to mind, as well The Royal Oud which I don’t own yet. Many would probably choose LV Ombre Nomad over this one.
What are the better fragrances that do the same thing as Nero Oudh?
Nothing...its a MASTERPIECE
Especially for mature folks...you have to be sophisticated to pull it off....I cant get enough of it
Within my collection, Arabian Oud Tarteel Gold. Much smoother saffron, although not as fruity. I think many would choose LV Ombre Nomad over it
Black Sea ain't no joke. Way too strong for me.
“Dior Homme Intense” current formulation a powerful fragrance?🤔🧐
Definitely not, that’s a mild scent that stays close to the body. Last 4 hours until it’s a skin scent. Thats my experience with it.
@@Yes-Yes1 True facts and I was just surprised he included it on his list of powerful and long-lasting fragrance.🙌🏼🙌🏼
Lasts all day on my skin. I don’t know what to tell you
@@thefragrancewell Now that’s the most reasonable excuse I was waiting for.🙌🏼🙌🏼

Dior Homme Intense is not that strong man. That’s reaching a bit man. 😂
If your experience is different, than it’s just different. It does not invalidate my, or other people’s experience.
