Bentley fragrances are made by Lalique. So you know the quality is there. On the Bentley website, this line lists for $90 (69 pounds), so we’re lucky it hits the discounters! Now you got me thinking I might find Intense at Burlington! I don’t have that one yet. Love the incense vibe with Absolute. Along with that bit of ginger brightness and that base of cedar and oud.
I got a sample of this a while back and really liked it. When I asked my fragrance judge (my daughter) to smell it and say what she thought of it, her eyes lit up and she said, “Oh, that is autumn! 100% autumn.” It put her in mind of a chilly autumn day with leaves on the ground and chimney smoke in the air.
I LOVE this fragrance and I am glad you got it in your collection! Btw, it's interesting that you're featuring a new Bentley fragrance here because I am wearing Bentley for Men Azure as my SOTD!! I HIGHLY recommend getting Azure as well! It's my personal favorite from the line and, if I can read your taste, your gonna LOVE IT!! It's another great year rounder! Also worth noting is that you mention having to scrub off Bentley for Men Intense. The original Bentley for Men is quite similar to the Intense flanker, but I find it more wearable and actually enjoy it more. Definitely recommend that one too.
I went earlier and there was a whole shelf dedicated to middle eastern stuff (mostly Lattafa and Swiss Arabian), also a lot of other cool stuff I've never seen before, Holiday season is where it's at
Definitely have to get back to finding gems at Burlington, especially with the holidays coming up. That is a great find Gerard, hopefully I have your kind of luck in the coming weeks!
I have Gucci Pour Homme and BFMAB, and I have compared the both of them. GPH smells much more refined and blended to me, but BFMAB gives you a distinct sense of GPH that is unmistakable, and I love it. Both are perfumed by Michel Almairac, so you really can't go wrong. Pencil shavings:):):)
This is crazy weather isn't it? I had received a decant of Absolute from another reactor and love it. I've been meaning to pick it up, thanks for reminding me, I've just ordered it. Perfect for these upcoming colder months! Always great to see your videos and your recommendations!
Found the Bentley Absolute today! Thanks for the rec! I realized before I went in I had 2 full bottles of fragrances and 5 sample decants in my car. How many you got in your car?
I came finally say I have experienced this type shopping - Out of Town😂! Went to a Burlington in Chicago and it was PACKED! Tons of Banana and the Bvlgari options were numerous! It was nice to finally see a stocked store. Excellent video! I was thinking about those Bvlgari scents. They had full line. Except Silverlake (the one I want). Cheers! 🎉🎉🎉😊
I’m going to keep an eye out for it in Burlington, as that’s where I got black edition which smells fantastic. Personally not a fan of Bentley intense, even though that seems to be everyone favorite.
@ don’t get me wrong I don’t dislike it, it’s just not my style and a bit overrated imo. But by no means bad. There’s another in that style that I prefer and that’s Cartier pasha parfum which to me at least is superior.
I have this and love it. The scent and presentation are top notch. My only complaint is that the performance is just ok.. not great. Only lasts like 3 hours on me. If performance was better it would be 11 on a 10 scale !
These are the best t's I've ever worn. They are part of the unreleased YZY x GAP collab. Check out keevadokicks.com/Gerard. Code: GERARDGEORGE to save 10% or check out LA Archives for the mainline tees.
Hello Gerard, Nicely done as usual. I have BENTLEY MAN ABSOLUTE but I got it in the summer I can't wait to wear in the cold weather. Stay safe brother SOTD BRIONI INTENSE EDP
I have a lot of Bentleys, and this one is a classic cedar bomb, as it dries down you get the pencil shaving smell. But I love Infinite Intense, one of my favorites for sure with Bentley, but could be in my top 20 of my collection.
Came across this as well as black and the original at mine. I got this but unfortunately I had to return it. It’s good but for me it’s just too woody and Smokey. It’s just not my style but this stuff is great!
I snared this at a picked over Burlington. I was stunned. Waited to pulled the trigger, then rushed back to the store today to grab it fearing it would be gone. It wasn’t. It was like our fate lines crossed. Anyway, the scent, right up my fragrance alley. And it smells like pencil shavings to the commenters who never hide in their grandfather’s cedar armoire.
I have a 15ml travel spray of it. I get pencil shavings, and once i smelled that, i could not get it out of my mind. It's not bad, but a once in an occasion frag
I was hoping you’d get that BR Tuberose Overdose as I am curious about it. I keep seeing it and wonder if it’s more masculine or feminine. Do you take requests? 😅
Yes I found that one at Burlington around September. Usually only like 2 so when you see it grab it. I also found Khamrah and today I finally found Khamrah Qahwa. Those have been my favorite Middle Eastetn finds
Bentley for men absolute; imagine a barn full of animal waste burning to the ground. My bottle found it's way to the landfill still full. For a wood fragrance that is FIRE, try Fragrance World Hard Wood.
Was looking around for midnight hour this week with no luck. Bentley absolute isn’t one for me. Tried a decant of it last year and it was a scrubber for me unfortunately. I got a strong cumin note from it which completely turned me off to this one.
@@nfc3po sucks but they’ll have them since it’s holidays and they have more selection. I got Bentley EDT which smells like pencils dont like that. And Khamrah Qahwa is nice. I should of have gotten the Lacoste Red EDT instead of Bentley lol
Hey let me tell you! Anyone run into Barca 1899! Yo amazing AMAZING frag! There's no reviews on UA-cam! Let me tell you I picked it up at at Burlington for $14.99! Smells like Invictus on steroids! Got mad compliments!
I don’t like it. Been having it for about 2 years and recently sprayed it to see if my opinion would change and I still don’t like it it. Smells like pencil shavings.

Wow love that! My daughter is my gauge as well along with my wife lol.
I get big time workshop/pencil shavings vibe. Very masculine and unique for a fragrance, I love it! Also found mine at Burlington
Yah I just commented and said it's straight up cedar pencil shavings to me.
Spot on!
I LOVE this fragrance and I am glad you got it in your collection! Btw, it's interesting that you're featuring a new Bentley fragrance here because I am wearing Bentley for Men Azure as my SOTD!!

Yes Holidays they tend to stock up!
Definitely have to get back to finding gems at Burlington, especially with the holidays coming up. That is a great find Gerard, hopefully I have your kind of luck in the coming weeks!
Yes more will be popping up for the holidays. Good luck!

You can say that again!
I've been hunting for that one for awhile. Gonna swing by Burlington tomorrow!!! Thanks
Good luck!
The best in the line IMO, original Bentley just behind it. Intense is insanely intense.
It sure is haha!
I have Bentley for Men Absolute and I love it. It's not for everyone, but that papyrus is fantastic.
Its amazing for the price.
Damn dope find. Open Road is great at that price
Yes a solid choice as well.
Found the Bentley Absolute today! Thanks for the rec!

Too many! Enjoy the scent.

I'm still waiting on Silverlake myself!
@raucusretread Wait, they have Bulgari scents too? Oh screw this, I'm packing lunch and just setting up shop in Burlington!! 😄

I think Intense is also the most polarizing.

I just picked this up at my Burlington on Tuesday. LOVE the scent - classy and mature. Just wished performance was better.
Performance was pretty good on me.
Hey Gerard. I like this one. I think I got mine at Burlington too. Enjoy.
Thanks!
I have this and love it. The scent and presentation are top notch.
My only complaint is that the performance is just ok.. not great. Only lasts like 3 hours on me. If performance was better it would be 11 on a 10 scale !
Thanks for your thoughts on it!
Very random question, but what brand of t-shirt are you wearing in this video. I like the way it fits, especially the neck.

@@gerardgeorgeafter all these years collecting, first time with Bentley. It’s really good!
Nice to know about! Did you like black from Bentley? I've seen both there eve original Bentley other day.
Yea it was good. Not as good as this though.
That Bentley absolute is one of the best car brand fragrances out there. Gucci pour Homme I in a Bentley bottle. Same purfumer
Oh really?
@@Hitthegasmedia yes sir Michel Almairac
Yes great point!
Thoughts on Turathi Blu, George?
Worth a pick up or trash?
It is my secret weapon 🎉. Get it!!!
Solid scent I like it a lot.
Damn you, Gerard! I've been scoping out my area Marshall's and TJ Maxx, now you'll have me haunting. Burlington! 😂
I'm sorry!
Came across this as well as black and the original at mine. I got this but unfortunately I had to return it. It’s good but for me it’s just too woody and Smokey. It’s just not my style but this stuff is great!
Not going to be for everyone for sure.
One of my favorite fragrances also man in black is really killer 👍
Love it!

Anyway, the scent, right up my fragrance alley. And it smells like pencil shavings to the commenters who never hide in their grandfather’s cedar armoire.
Enjoy it! Nice grab.
Had it in my hand last week. Put it back because of the oud, plus too many people mention a pencil smell to it.
Yes you won't like it if you don't like the fresh wood smell.
I keep thinking you'll grab Spiderman, but you never do. 😂
One of these days!
I have a 15ml travel spray of it. I get pencil shavings, and once i smelled that, i could not get it out of my mind. It's not bad, but a once in an occasion frag
Yes a common accord many get and either love or hate.
I was hoping you’d get that BR Tuberose Overdose as I am curious about it. I keep seeing it and wonder if it’s more masculine or feminine. Do you take requests? 😅
Feminine
Definitely feminine. Reminds me a bit of Michael Kors for women.
I will probably try eventually.
Beautiful bottle
Very nice!
Love this fragrance. To me it smells like a campfire mixed with pencil shavings
Sounds awesome!
They got tons of Bentley fragrances, i just picked that one up last weekend and one other.
Yea they are popping up for sure.
The elevator at Legal Harborside used to smell exactly like this.
Lol now I gotta smell it again!
I found midnight hour smells pretty good. It is similar to explorer
So it’s very green?
@nadecha5326 if that's what you get from Explorer, then yes. Im not sure what the notes are, but they are of the same style
Yes very similar.
Should have grabbed that midnight hour
I have before!
Just picked this up last week as well from burlington. Still on the hunt for eternal oud though. Has anyone found that one lately??
Yes I found that one at Burlington around September. Usually only like 2 so when you see it grab it. I also found Khamrah and today I finally found Khamrah Qahwa. Those have been my favorite Middle Eastetn finds
It will pop up eventually!

There’s a lot of BR Midnight for $19.99 at Burlingtons. I got one
@ yea, the ones around me don’t seem to have it. Went again today and they had basically every other BR scent to exist but not this one lol.
@@nfc3po sucks but they’ll have them since it’s holidays and they have more selection. I got Bentley EDT which smells like pencils dont like that. And Khamrah Qahwa is nice. I should of have gotten the Lacoste Red EDT instead of Bentley lol
Good luck Midnight Hour will pop up eventually!
I ripped off your weekly wears concept- I hope that's cool😂
Of course! I'll check it out.
I just sold a bottle a few days ago. It's not a bad scent, but I didn't enjoy it. Plus, the performance is bad.
I actually got pretty good performance I hear ya though definitely not for everyone.
Hey let me tell you! Anyone run into Barca 1899! Yo amazing AMAZING frag! There's no reviews on UA-cam! Let me tell you I picked it up at at Burlington for $14.99! Smells like Invictus on steroids! Got mad compliments!
I'll check it out possibly!
It kind of smells like Dolce and gabbana Intenso
Hmmm I don't have that one but like it.
It smells like pencil shavings to me.
Same. I like it but it's an acquired taste.
Yep and either you love it or hate that.
Bentley is a fantastic brand for fragrances. The whole line is great. Just did a “battle” video between this, the OG, and intense man
I'll check it out!
I don’t like it. Been having it for about 2 years and recently sprayed it to see if my opinion would change and I still don’t like it it. Smells like pencil shavings.
Yep and you either love it or hate it it seems.
👍👍™️
Thanks Michael!
I like it...smells like a pencil
In a good way!
I dont like it..smells like a pencil
Smells like the lumber area at homedepot 😂 its good tho
I got that as well with the Bentley EDT
People seem to either love that or hate it.
You are probably not a woods guy then.
