Agreed, nothing special. Not sure why, but when I smelt it, Dior Homme Cologne immediately came to mind. It isn’t as lemonade smelling as DHC, but feels similar and last as long.
@@istiaksunny752 my experience with it is from a few years ago, but I didn’t find it to be anything special, but some reviewers think it’s great. Smelled like a lemon cleaner at first, but the dry down was a decent summer scent. Lasted maybe 4-5hrs.
Great choices Erica. My shortlist from those are: 1. Eau Intense - Brisk cold Rhubarb 2. GnTonic - Refreshing green Lime 3. Imagination - Smooth zesty Citron Those 3 are all i need. :)
Nice list, I'll have to get my nose on some these. Pacific Chill, Imagination, Miami, Torino21, Nio, Aventus Cologne, Sedley, Profundo and GF Silver are just a few of the fragrances I'll be reaching for the most this summer ☀️
Nice list! My current summer fragrances in no particular order are: 1. Xerjoff Torino 21 2. Gisada Ambassador 3. Kajal Faris 4. PDM Sedley 5. Pacific Rock Moss by Goldfield & Banks 6. Elysium Parfum Cologne 7. Mancera Cedrat Boise 8. MFK Gentle Fluidity Silver 9. Creed Aventus Cologne 10. Bvlgari Aqva Amara (discontinued) Shout out from Costa Rica 🇨🇷✌🏽
Erica. I sprayed 5 sprays of CC casmere musc at store. You are right about skin scent. I really wanted it to project by 10X . I normally layer subtle frags. Id need 10+ sprays to just add onto another frag I compliment. Ive got spicebomb extreme and SB EDP. Id add 10 sprays of this too it to smooth out some spice frags. Is there a stronger frag just like this? Blonde Amber is a beast. I will do 1 spray Blonde Amber and 10 sprays Cashmere Musc and it will be an 'improved Cashmere Musc'
I tried Elysium Intense against the original Elysium for the first time just the other day and I preferred the Intense (think I'm in the minority here, haha)! Taking this as a sign to get a decant(s) and do a proper test drive (I own neither). On another note, and the reason I'm commenting now, I have Uomo Casual Life and was literally JUST thinking about how no one talks about this one. A quick sniff and you'll think it's nothing special however HIGH HEAT is where this one shines. I put it on before a hike in direct sun, I'm talking about sweating-my-butt-off-heat, and this fragrance took on a whole new dimension. So pleasant, not synthetic, straight up GORGEOUS. You must try if you haven't, you'll be shocked! Great reccos!
My must have fragrances for the summer: Torino21 by Xerjoff Kobe by Xerjoff GNTONIC by M.Micallef Eau Givrée by Terre d'Hermes Bois Impérial by Essential Parfums Wulóng Cha by Nishane Hacivat by Nishane Montabaco Verano by Ormonde Jayne
Nice list , Erica ! I have tried the new Elysium but it feels very designerish . Sedley and casual life smell very nice but i would expect more from PDM as their price tag is high. I have ordered a sample of Imagination .Also Need to try Quattro Pizzi
I have the John varvatos. It’s pretty good incredible good but it dosent last. I had it when I used when I was in summer programs and it last a lot and I got many complements but idk it dosent last anymore like it before
4/10 for me, so doing pretty good 😁In regards to GNTonic - you should try (if you haven't already) Blue Moon Ginger Dash By Kilian - it's a close idea to the M. Micallef, but with slight differences and a bit more staying power in my experience - awesome stuff
Damn Erica, you’ve been cranking content out lately. I’m loving the constant reviews, keep it up!! I just bought Amber Blonde, Naxos, Haltane, and Cavort based on your recommendations.
Other than maybe sedley, none of these last longer than maybe a few hours. I have a 2020 sedley though with the older alcohol percentage, so mine might last longer than newer bottles. Really wish reviewers would say the year they acquired their bottle bc some of these folks have had their bottles for years and then people try the latest bottles and are disappointed and very confused, not realizing the bottle the reviewer is hyping is 6yrs old. Or maybe stuff just last longer on her skin than mine.
Y'all, I gotta rooftop black tie event soon. The weather will be 65ish, near a lake most likely a little windy. Should I go with the safe choice of Sedley cause it's summer or mix it up with Naxos.
The opening of Sedley is absolutely unappealing to me - I just get a cheap shower gel. However, after about 10 minutes, in the air it becomes a very classy and smooth fresh scent. It just shows that you can't base your opinion on the opening smelled up close. You've gotta give it a full wearing. The original Elysium reminds me very strongly of a fragrance that has been forgotten - Holister Drift. I went through 3 bottles of Drift in college; mostly because the performance wasn't great. Elysium hits like a higher quality, refined version of Drift with better performance. It definitely brings up a lot of memories...
I find this house to be super concentrated, strong openings but poor sillage/longevity/performance. Like they just threw sum fragrances together, blended/mixed horribly🤷🏽♂️💯
@@saintofthemosthigh82 i’m guessing you never leave the United States? Its available in the pacific region. I travel for buisness once a month out there.
Dear Erica! Would you review some of the Bentley fragances. They are affordable and great scents for me. Everytime that I research in youtube there is only men reviewing these. I really don't care about men opinins, I would love to have a woman perspective. Thank you
Right now I’m on a quest to purchase all of them so far I have memories gold and just ordered soho , I will order lake balaton next and give my honest opinion
It’s comes down to preference I’ve tried both it’s hard gn tonic focuses more on the pink pepper and lime and overall more like fresh grated lime zest on a gin and tonic. Mfk is more focused on the fresh herbs 🌿 u put in a gin and tonic very aromatic hyper realistic gin and tonic and a nice zesty juniper berry caressing the tonic water accord I love it but if you want something more cocktail party/flirty/ valentines day esque then gn tonic is the move. Mfk is more ceo vibes think like Christian grey
Imagination is named perfectly. Because after the scent is gone in 2 hours, you get to imagine what it smelled like
Agreed, nothing special. Not sure why, but when I smelt it, Dior Homme Cologne immediately came to mind. It isn’t as lemonade smelling as DHC, but feels similar and last as long.
have to tried Artisan Pure? How is it?

Glad to see Cologne Blu getting some love. Always thought it was a great buy the discounter price
I like Imagination but Louis Vuitton being Louis Vuitton is always expensive and allergic to any serious discount. Oh, well, solid suggestions Erica!

Genres combination of imagination and symphony… Imagine a symphony, so good.
Currently wearing St. John from city rhythm. Very tropical, very summer

I rarely buy a back up bottle, but Sedley is a must have 👌🏼
Always glad when there is a few on the list I have tried ad can relate to. Sedley, Elysium, and Artisan impure. Imagination is on my list of to do.
Great video I am rocking this summer Imagination and sedley .
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
Got 5 Erica on this list. GN Tonic is a winner !! Cheers from Toronto ❤
Great video and picks!

Great review erica as always what are some good ones for summer from creed i have almost all of them thanks again your amazing
I bought naxos for a summer scent in the UK after your recommendation, it works great !
Perfect list Erica Xerjoff 40 Knots
Absolutely love sedley so darn good. I will be rocking perseus,greenley,galloway,darley and roja oceania. I got plenty of more 😂

Another HOTTT list YES! If you layer Artisan Pure with Molecule 01 which would you put on first or does it matter at all?
I would say the best one to spray first is the ISO E! 🩷
@@eauderica Thank you!
Erika iam curious About Caesar Ultra… waiting for you to try it … regards

sedley is sooooooo good
wow Im from Hungary and the superz here ist just suprized me btw im currently at lake balaton :)
Marfa from Memo Paris for this summer! ☀
is there a fragrance that smells like imagination? like that type of clean laundry

Naxos 🔥🔥🔥

I’m thinking to purchase cosmic pepper by mancera or Soleil ditalie .
I’m not sure wich one 🤔
Has Quatro Pizzi been discounted yet? Or is the full retail worth it?
Any thoughts on Frank Boclet fragrances? The seem niche super high quality and a lot of them are popping up for $50
I find this house to be super concentrated, strong openings but poor sillage/longevity/performance. Like they just threw sum fragrances together, blended/mixed horribly🤷🏽♂️💯
I have and love Sedley, but I now prefer Perseus.
Yeah way better it's a copy of Terre with a twist
❤⚖ *Imagination smelled like shampoo or an Irish spring soap definitely more feminine smelling* Sold it.
To simplify Tuberose what does it smell like to your nose?
LV Imagination is all I need.
Im waiting to get my bottle of zaharoff seraphim blue 😁💪🏽
Me too lol should be coming today.
Now all I need is an actual summer in the UK
Get yourself Eros Energy, I’m already half way through my bottle! It’s really good especially for a designer.
🤥
Lmaooooo its not even out yet. I don't understand the need to lie, u think u seem cool? Because u sound far from it. Very far from cool lol
@@saintofthemosthigh82 i’m guessing you never leave the United States? Its available in the pacific region. I travel for buisness once a month out there.
How does it smell? Very citrusy right? This smell like a banger!!!🔥🔥💯
I m just afraid of the patchouli note...hate when the patchouli is too heavy
@@romeosly4341How does it smell?? So curious
Something like Artisan pure that last and projects?
Can you review boss magnetic?
Dear Erica! Would you review some of the Bentley fragances. They are affordable and great scents for me. Everytime that I research in youtube there is only men reviewing these. I really don't care about men opinins, I would love to have a woman perspective. Thank you
I have spoken about a few before, they are good cheapies! Very complex and manly 🔥
@@eauderica thank you for replying
Totally of subject but the original blu atlas is real good.
Why do I see people saying Sedley has been reformulated? True?
I believe it was reformulated shortly after first release due to poor performance. I have a 2023 batch and it lasts 10 hours.
Must have summer fragrance is Versace Pour Homme. It’s cheap but it’s one of my favorite.
lol she’s gonna Supperz Budapest us to DEATHHHHHH
There are always time stamps on my videos (: you can always speed past a fragrance if you don’t want to hear about it (: 😊
@@eauderica I definitely want to hear ALL about it!🙌
Never owned one but its tempting, if i dont like it who wants it? 😂
That brand seems to have bought all fragrance bloggers available for sale 😂
Right now I’m on a quest to purchase all of them so far I have memories gold and just ordered soho , I will order lake balaton next and give my honest opinion
GNtonic VS Gentle fluidity silver ?

For summer that not last long.. 😭
Like a romantic vacation in Sweden.
Pana Dora - Aqua de dora
Do you film outside because you dont have your own home?
😅😅
🙌❤️🔥
casual life is so light no one will ever notice do not go for it. from personal exp.
what a woman!!
get the regular elysium. not the eau intense. thank me later. at least go to Nieman's before buying and smell them both
100%, ALWAYS try in store before buying when possible, I did try them both multiple times, and prefer the eau intense ☺️
It’s just me, or I feel that suprez it’s actually paying an all the fragrance content creators to talk great about all their fragrances. 3:33
If a video is sponsored by a brand, I always verbally disclose this!
I feel the same way. Only her, Curly and a few others talk about them. They aren't that hyped up by reviewers not on compensation🤔💯
Nah I'm good got aventus cologne
Why erica so mean😂
Casamorati mefisto gentlhomo.
Joop wow is real good
Hermes Jardin Mediterranean is way more realistic than any of these .
❤❤❤
i have learned that when this beautiful girl calling a parfume sooo good and sooo perfect means this is commercial vid and the parfume smells like ass
Don’t like Sedley that much
I agree. Greenly is better.
Smells like shaving cream. And Greenley smells like garnier fructose shampoo. Will never understand the PDM hype
I like Percival more than Sedley but honestly, they both smell like designer fragrances with a higher price tag.
@@cs9115 garnier fructis is fire tho lol
@@cs9115 smells delicious fr fr lol
Sounds like ai
Don't ever cap another bottle that close to the microphone again
Cry harder
@@thugwafflebro8062cringe
ngl most these scents fucking sucked 🤣
Hey Erica
Can you tell me the beast mode summer fragrance for men?
So i can impress beautiful girls like you👀🫂
