There’s this amazing clone of Creed Viking called OLD SPICE. U might be able to find at your local drug store or great grandpas medicine caninet.
Here before the title gets changed
edit: (title was nichebuy)
Fake news
@@Katalin04what was it before it was edited
For me personally:
PDM - Layton and Herod
Xerjoff: Naxos and Uden Overdose
Amouage: Reflection man
Initio: not a big fan of brand but if I had to choose one it would be Oud For Greatness
Tom Ford: Ombre leather edp, Tobacco Vanille
Creed: it isn't what it used to be so nothing
Memo Paris: African leather, Argentina
Kilian: Sacred wood, Angels share
MFK: Grand Soir
Nishane: Hacivat
Profumum Roma: Acqua di Sale
I literally own 75% of those (and as my only bottle per brand as well), nice taste
Mfk gentle fluidity silver is a good choice though
Initio : Sideffect?
@@robinhood6781 not the biggest fan honestly i'd say average
Side effect is better than everything on this list you’re bugging out
Every video of yoyrs is so unique and cool. The School of Scent is the best find of 2023 for me,.. i wish you start saying "the class is in session" again though.
For me, Amouage “Opus XIV: Royal Tobacco, Nishane “Fan your Flames” and Orto Parisi “Terroni” will always be in my collection and I will buy full bottles of those till I die. Close follow-ups are Argos “Triumph of Bacchus” and Xerjoff “Naxos” .
PDM Haltane is my signature scent. Sedley for spring/summer & Carlisle for fall/winter. I need to get my nose on Oajan again.
Oajan is fucking beautiful
Viking finally getting some love!!! It's a toss up between that and GIT. Both are amazing choices
So agree with Carlisle and Oajan. I got a sample of 40 Knots and yes, i agree. It's extremely good. Probably my favorite fresh fragrance right now. If i ever come across a well priced bottle, bong bong. Will snatch it with the quickness. Le Lion is also the BOMB. Really animalic, hence the name. I feel like it's a more rugged bad man version of Dior Homme Parfum.
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed night
Found a full bottle of 40 Knots for $170 and have been holding off on it…I think this along with many other positive reviews is going to make me finally pull the trigger
Do it!

I´ve recently bought Acqua di Parmas Oud as my second niche and I am really happy I did! Don´t overspray this one tho, that would do more harm than good.
SOTD: Mancera Cedrat Boise Intense- Personally 2x Full Bottles purchased in 2023.
It doesnt get much talk, but my absolutely cannot do without Niche full bottle has to be Francesca Bianchi's Etruscan water, sublime masculine chypre, love that stuff
Cedrat Boise makes me sneeze all day. I prefer auod lemon mint

Rasasi Hawas

Prada l'homme
Pineapple Vintage Intense
La nuit de l'homme
PDM Carlisle
Side Effect
Molecule 01 Layer everything with this
I’m not buy anything else, im just going to rotate these 200ml on each one.
@@JohnchnguyenYea thanks for the correction
i love mfk, oud satin mood extrait. Lasts for over 24 hours on my skin somehow, absolutely addictive smell with the jammy rose. I've noticed something though, my nose just doesn't pick up oud smells. Oud for greatness smells super plain to me for whatever reason, so when oud pairs with other fragrances as a supporter is where i like it the most like in the aforementioned satin mood extrait. Also love haltane by pdm, carlisle is right up there too. Initio it has to be paragon, about 12 hours on my skin and i absolutely love the plum note. Going to full bottle paragon and either satin extrait or haltane here in a month
What do you think of the Designer Shaik line? Specifically Sochi Onyx. I’ve recently picked it up and it smells pretty good
I own Oajan and Carlisle and would absolutely buy them again in the future. How about Aaron Terence Hughes and Nishane? Are there any full bottles you would buy from those houses?
I remember when the Title said „Top 10 Niche Colognes to spray on your Balls when it’s about to get nasty“ … 😂
Wrong channel bro
@@SchoolOfScent 🌝
Love the video❤
Looking forward to buying some samples because I believe you and I share the same taste great video.
Omar your new oud -mango fragrance sounds amazing ,could you consider expanding to the eu pls 😅😅😅
I blind bought Viking and I gave it to my uncle because I didn’t like the smell. Lesson learned always sample before blind buying a full bottle.
Great video 👍We need a part 2 !🎉
Great video Omar, but you should do another roasting my subscribers collection video
lovin these daily uploads. if u came down to bristol i would buy u a 9 course meal
If you insist 👀
Anyone can say what they want and I will respect it but Creed Aventus is and always will be my all time favorite until they come out with an intense version lol. That dna just works for me. Tom Ford Oud Wood is a close runner up. To my nose, those scents are the most pleasing.
How tf did you leave bond no 9 off? You guzzed over Lafayette Street.
Trajan, from Electimuss, is a really close fragrance to BR540. Definitely worth a try.
Black Iris and ADP leather are two on my wishlist, have enough scents and don't ever feel the need to move up to niche. It's just bang for buck. Designers and clones do the job well.
That said I do have TF OL (not really niche) and Mancera aoud lemon mint
Same here bro even tho i got enough money saved. I just bought Prada l'homme intense and Valentino UI this year. I'm thinking of Naxos or Amouage Black Iris for the last purchase this year.
Amouge Black iris man is so unique. I love it. Thanks so much. Wow. By the way. I hate OUD Oud for Greatness i have 5 mls to give away
Purchased Uden as my versatile signature on Omar’s recommendation and I love it, I do intend to get a sample/decant of Uden Overdose but impressions I’ve heard were mixed? Still love Uden.
Uden just smells like lemons
LET'S GO!!
THE STREAK CONTINUES!
I sampled Layton and opening smelled like chapstick is that normal?
Mmm... Layton have a menthol vibe and the original chapstick too. Maybe is that🤔
From one of your previous videos on top niche fragrances you mentioned Amouage Reflection Man 45 Extrait, what do you think about that fragrance now and would you not purchase a full bottle of it? (speaking as a 22 year old male)
I think it’s great, but you really have to love that style to make the full bottle purchase (definitely try first)
im loving amouage royal tobacco a lot ngl
Just bought Carlisle and Accento for 485$ total, W?
try amber oud ruby and rouge. they are really good BR540 clones
Nice title Omar
Thanks. Just a regular title.
Where do you find old formulation of fragrances? Maxaroma?
Great video best wishes from Cheshire
Hello brother omar o have few questions
can you make a video which websites is trustworthy to buy any fragrances no matter where you live and whats better naxos or pdm layton ?? I want for everything so which one??
Can you recommend me other fragrances maybe in this price etc thank you very much
can you review MARC-ANTOINE BARROIS Ganymede?
Thoughts on Comme des Garçons fragrances?
for me only 2 are worth a whole big bootle "acqua e zuccero" and "hundred silent ways"
What colour is your Parfums De Marly?
Im currently trying to decide between Parfums de Marly Percival and Xerjoff 40 Knots. Percival is definitely more my style but I want an everyday fragrance for the summer, but one that still performs ok for the fall. Which one would you guys recommend?
You should get both
I currently have both fragrances. 40 knots will smell more high-end than Percival, But Percival feels more versatile from a situational standpoint.
Gotcha thank you
I own a sample of 40 Knots and a full bottle of Percival. I think you can wear Percival all year around due to its really good performance and the spicy and sweet notes it also has. I was a bit disappointed by 40 Knots to be honest (sorry Omar 😅). It reminds me of fresh laundry. I almost only smell soapy sweetness. The salt and aquatic notes are barely noticable for me. Maybe because my parents have often been buying hand soap with seawater aroma in the past. That is probably why I find it quite underwhelming. The performance of 40 Knots is great and if you like the DNA I think 40 Knots fits better into fall and winter than Percival.
Ty that was very helpful
11:57 🥰
Is there a niche version of prada luna rossa carbon?
Wouldn’t you repurchase reflection 45?
You love that flannel Omar 😂
Full bottle...PDM - Herod, Oajan
Xerjoff - Naxos, Symphonium
Amouage - Jubilation 25 only
Initio - never smelled it but Side Effect
Thomas Fordigan - Noir Extreme Parfum (i have the original)
Creed - nothing
What is longetivity of herod?
@@bullettothehead303 6-8 hours...projection is ok not great
Al haramain amber oud rouge edition.closest br40 clone
what about Atrium? they didn't make the list?
I recently tried Montblanc Explorer and it's now on my purchase list. Do I pull the trigger on it or do I save up more and blind buy 'Mancera Cedrat Boise Intense ' instead?
cedrat boise intense 100%
My opinion is CBI
@@SchoolOfScent Could you recommend a site for me to purchase it from in Australia?
Hacivat
@@BeastUnleashed911
Have you found it yet
Pls review alexandria game time bro 🎉
Hey doc make a video about bond 9 please
Good brand Mines will be Lafayette Street
Naxos
Angel’s Share
Ani Nishane
What about Kilian?
Fragrance is REALLY subjective for real, I just got my sample of 40 knots in today and I hate it, idk how it could be called a freshie.
I am in love the 40 knots 😡. It does not rock my boat! Now I love Torino 21 🥰
I meant hate 40 knots
@@jaimecandelario5767 same here! I just ordered Torino 21 since loving my sample in the beginning of this past summer
how about nishane omar?
Wait what’s the deal with new vs old formulation of fougère d’argent?
Old formulation is a 10/10, new formulation is a 7/10
@@SchoolOfScentHow do I distinguish between the two?
I will Never Agree with not buying Aventus all else is fair game.
School of Scent Drinking game,..
Drink when:
- The ‘mature’ business guy with the salt and pepper beard appears
- The young ‘Gangster’ looking guy in the black suit with the slicked back hair appears
- When the big roll of leather is reefed out
- When there is a plug for Tom Ford Noir Anthracite
- When you see the pencil being sharpened
- If Omar tells you NOT to buy Creed Aventus
Great title 😂
It’s a normal title
One question that bogs me is: Does Niche necessarily have to mean Expensive?!
Not always
@@SchoolOfScent What do you think the top 5 non-expensive niche perfumes in the industry would be? Let's say below 70€
@@killersoul85Mancera comes to mind. You can easily snatch some bottles on sale for under 70€
@@killersoul85 Hafez 1984, L’Homme Ideal Extreme, Toy Boy (I would say fits the definition of niche), Rasasi Shuhrah, Bentley for Men Intense (would say fits it also)
*Moschino Toy Boy isn’t a niche perfume. Moschino as a brand create a lot more than just fragrance. Same with Bentley. That’s not considered niche.*
*A niche fragrance is strictly from a brand whose only commercial offering is to produce perfumery. Nothing else.*
*So Moschino who are a fashion brand are not niche. Bentley who are primarily a car manufacturer amongst so many other things are not niche. Even the likes of Commes de Garçon, Costume National, Tom Ford etc. These are not niche perfume houses.*
I’d like free samples - Thank you
Viking and Green Irish Tweed Are just so Good Fragrances ! Sadly there are no good clones … I don’t like to give Creed my money 😂
lmao
Have you tried L'Aventure Knight by AlHaramain? I think it smells quite nice. decent GIT clone.
I think ScentualObsessions clone of Viking is pretty good.
if I had infinite money, I would only purchase and repurchase three:
Thameen Carved Oud
Creed Royal Oud
Creed Bois Du Portugal
Im just so hqppy you dont wear a baseball hat. You look neat. A good shave above your beard on the cheeks would make you look 10/10
Creed is british not french
Ppl are split on this, but is Tom ford niche?😭😭
Niche is a subjective term not objective
@@SchoolOfScent ohhh gotcha because I was really confused when this dude was putting all his effort into telling me my ombré leather, bitter peach, and lost cherry aren’t niche lmao
So
The Amouage is now fully comercial brand, their old releases are worth trying. But new stuff is just overpriced french parfumery school
I may agree 👀
Russia
Just splash some juice on ya,
nichebuy
where?
original title: nichebuy
Not possible.
I really thought I saw that aw well. In fact, I'm 99% sure. Weird... I don't think I imagined it.
Layton is such an underwhelming scent
I love your reviews. I think ppl would take you more for your word if you shaved your cheeks.
Viking mid af
I think Creed is from London, not France.

*Viking is one of the worst fragrances in the entire Creed lineup. People who wear Viking don’t actually care how much they stink to everyone else.*
Does anybody else get a strong similarity between Carlisle and Black Orchid Parfum? 🥹
