Happy New Year, everyone! A big thank you Omar for all your hard work this year. I truly believe you contributed to elevate our appreciation of fragrances.
I got the Loewe Cobalt 7 based off your recommendation and definitely great purchase. Compliments aplenty and was told that I smell like a fresh garden, working perfect in the summer down south currently. 🌞😎
Purchased Loewe Cobalt on your recommendation. Excellent choice! Truly a standout from the other blue fragrances. Awesome content as always. Thank you and Happy New Year Omar!
@jendysklement7632 l love it, its still a classic. Dont expect it to last very long though, maybe 4 hours at the most. If you shop around, theres some decent discounts. Definitely worth it imho
My best 7 frags 1. Babycat 2. Red tobacco 3. Aoud lemon mint 4. Althair 5. Le male parfum 6. Arabian Tonka 7. Memo Irish leather. I'm more leans gourmandy sweet tooth kinda guy.
Happy new year! Started watching you in may/June of this year when I was brand new into fragrance and I still watch as often as I can. I always check your reviews before I buy anything and even took a few recommendations on blind buys. Thanks for helping me along !
Happy New Year Omar. Great list. I do like the new Eros a lot. I didn't like it at first but a fantastic vacation/hot weather fragrance. Supremacy collectors is OK. NOIT is way better in my opinion but fragrances are 100 subjective so there you go. Have a great year.
@@mattgagnon5866 well damn thiS the 1st comment I see of someone saying NOI being wAY better than the new collectors edition .... im wondering if Jo Milano high roller is a better grab than the new Afnan collectors edition 🤔
I remarked that Loewe has very nice blue fragrances. Almost all their stuff are freshies and each one has its own uniqueness Cobalt is a good one! I also liked Drop, Él and Man 001 Great fresh blue frags and a reasonable price !
Happy 2025 Omar. Apart from the Amouage line, Oman Luxury has some stellar fragrances such as Royal Incense, Paramour that are extremely high quality and take perfumery from the middle east to a whole other level.
Love your content man and you already assitant me before and i blind bought your recommendation and it was great,thank you, i would like again to ask Guerlaine Homme EDP or Mancera Kumkat wood in terms of scent and longevity,Thank you
The good guys down at “My Signature Aroma” based in Brixton have 98% of all the fragrances you have reviewed and can be made in any variation you want, be it candle, beard oil, reed diffuser, body butter, room spray, perfume spray
People have no idea that Merchant of Venice Vinegia 21 is one of the best Gourmand scents on the planet and I'm not exaggerating. It's not smack you in the face sweet, but a opulent dessert style while being airy and complex with noticeable transitions that are an experience that anyone into Frags needs to put their nose on💯
So the Versace is derivative that's why it's not good, while the Afnan is also a derivative but that makes it good? I don't get that reasoning to be honest, it's kind of err...funny. Thank you for pointing out the other choices, and happy new year!
Afnan was never shy about their "inspirations" while Eros lineup and the new scent were marketed as a new breakthrough in perfumery, continuation of strong, sweet fragrances... It came out bland
Happy new year, cant wait for more content from you bro! Would've been fun to see a second and first runner up to really build suspense for ur top picks. Maybe for next new years. Cheers!
Middle Eastern, gourmands, Ambery frags too… Even the most approachable of these-Angel’s share, Oajan, Ambre Tabac, Grand Soir etc I do not like either. It seems like we may be on a similar page, what are your favourites?
Hey Omar, i was wondering what you'd recommend instead of "stronger with you intense" Now that its winter here in Sweden i was wondering if you had any instant recommendations, Appreciate you.
I accidentally ordered the original Loewe 7 instead of the Cobalt version. That one is challenging. I’ve subsequently bought the Cobalt version and love that one.
You need to keep the Fragrance name and company on the screen for longer. I would honestly recommend keeping it up the entire time you talk about the fragrance.
@ If you referring to what Amouage release this year, im not sure.. If you trying to say what Amouage release this year and can make it to Omar’s list or not, it doesn’t matter, Omar already mention in his video, these are the top fragrance in his collection doesnt matter what year it was released or discovered.. You have a good day..
There is nothing wrong with Eros Energy, IMO. Sauvage Eau Forte should have been in the list. Not all Boss Bottleds are related, why is that even mentioned for Eros Energy? What about Afnan Supremacy is middle eastern in the way that it smells or is blended?
I’m not sure what the deal is with TMW parfum, bought a bottle a few months back and I think it smells amazing. But everyone says it has good performance whereas for me it’s a skin scent within 30 mins, and doesn’t last on my clothes whatsoever. Would be my top if it had better performance and silage.
I blind bought al nashama from lattafa and I kinda of got a bug spray vipe when I first sprayed it. Maybe it needs to sett ot Maybe I got a bad bottle. Maybe I have a broken nose 😅 I don't know
How do you like French avenue Azzure oud clone of Oud Maracujá Maison Crivelli? I have it so good! last a long time just like liquid brun from same line, which was my best purchase of 20204. I have on order the just release Cocoa Morado the newest in that line with a purple bottle. sounds really good!
I had l'instant de guerlain pH but I couldn't f with the citrus kaokao combi.. It smells amazing but it just isn't for me I gifted it to someone on Christmas 😁
I don’t get the hype about Al Nashama Caprice I did try hard to like it by wearing it few times,going to sell it with Amougae Reflection Man 45 as both gives me a nose a tickle and scent profile is cheap
I follow you with pleasure and buy perfumes according to your comments. Could you please recommend me some attractive oud scents with high permanence and spread?
Why don’t all fragrance companies give you a free tester to go along with your order so that you can try the fragrance and if you don’t like it you can still return it? Seems like it should be standard practice and it make it so that no one blind buys again
Some of the perfumes from Douglas ship with that very concept! I agree, it's awesome :) Especially if you live far away from actual stores that have the more expensive juice.
Of course, I had to look the Jubilation 40 up, here I post the latest comment currently at Fragrantica: "The biggest disappointment of my entire perfume adventure. Smells like a wet glove. Lasts a little over 2 hours. I couldn't believe it, so I ordered another decant from another place. Same story. Jubilation XXV is a great scent, this has nothing in common with it." I don't mean this as an insult to you but as an insult to the author. 😂
Man you are missing soooo much with middle eastern category. You are talking about clone houses almost only. You need to at least try more accessible original houses like Arabian Oud, Abdul Samad Al Qurashi, Ibrahim Al Qurashi, Ahmed Al Maghribi, Gissah. And if you you could get your hands on Dar Al Teeb try Waw with real deer musk in it will blow your mind and Noon with pure super high quality sandalwood will shatter your expectations on how good sandalwood can be.
They definitely should've released Eros Energy earlier in the year and gave people a chance to smell in the high heat, at least. That WAS pretty dumb ngl
@@RichardOliver yea I know it's not Eros thats besides the point that's just the order I see them in as aLL BEING frOM VERSACE .... folk can't wait to try correct a mofo on this internet keyboard bS .. keep it movin pal 👍🏼
Happy New Year! 🎉
And also to you Omar! Looking forward to everything you do this year coming, all the best
same to you
do try bois imperial and duro by nasomatto (just nasomatto in general) in '25

@@justinboyer5449 How’s the performance???
@@Chris6815 not bad. Lasted 9 hours on me in the hot Florida sun this past July.
@ Thank you
My top 3 ... ever
1. Amouage Gold
2. YSL la nuit de l'homme
3. TF Ombre Leather or Sauvage Elixir
Is YSL LNDL still worth it nowadays? Thinking about buying it..
@jendysklement7632 l love it, its still a classic. Dont expect it to last very long though, maybe 4 hours at the most. If you shop around, theres some decent discounts. Definitely worth it imho
@@simplysubaru2830 thank you 🙏 I know the scent itself is top notch but is it versatile (other than date nights?) That is probably my biggest worry
@@jendysklement7632 i think its more of a formal scent. Certainly not for the gym or a club or a lads nights out
Great video Omar! I paused it so many times to take some notes. So helpful!
My best 7 frags
1. Babycat
2. Red tobacco
3. Aoud lemon mint
4. Althair
5. Le male parfum
6. Arabian Tonka
7. Memo Irish leather.
I'm more leans gourmandy sweet tooth kinda guy.
Aoud Lemon Mint is a fantastic scent in my Opinion

Happy New Year Everyone.. All the best and I hope we'll have an amazing experience this year in discovering our best fragrance..
Congratulations Omar! Happy New Year! 🎉😁

Happy new year everyone!! Hard to say a favorite fragrance from this year, but I tried out layering for the first time and have really enjoyed it.
Loewe is the most underrated house. A plethora of amazing fragrances
Never seen a fragrance content creator as consistent as SchoolOfScent.
Happy new year everyone!🎉
Awesome video! Thank you and Happy New Year!
Happy New Year Omar! Many blessings in 2025.
Hope that 2025 brings more original fragrances and not soooo many flankers.
I remarked that Loewe has very nice blue fragrances. Almost all their stuff are freshies and each one has its own uniqueness
Cobalt is a good one! I also liked Drop, Él and Man 001

Agree with you on jubilation 40 as the best scent. Also agree about xerjoff Tommy Iommi deified. Both amazing scents!
Try Essencia Loewe! It’s a real masterpiece. The old green and gold bottle was a real keeper 👌🏻
Picked up the new Gucci Guilty Love edition this new years morning. Such a good scent, probably my new daily
My go-ti guy for perfumery! Great video!
Love your content man and you already assitant me before and i blind bought your recommendation and it was great,thank you, i would like again to ask Guerlaine Homme EDP or Mancera Kumkat wood in terms of scent and longevity,Thank you
Great list brother 👍
Loewe Cobalt 7 is like a grown up Bleu De Chanel to me. I was shocked how similar they are to me. Beautiful stuff!! Great blind buy!!
Good list Naxos should be in the list though ,everything about it is a 10/10 👍🏾
Great choices all round. Happy new year
Great options,
Very good work❤

@@Gibonni91 Shyness or rather the lack thereof doesn't add quality to the product.
good list
Loewe 7 cobalt is a masterpiece, you should try aire, aire suitileza and white magnolia too
Jus De Rose is a recommended channel if you want informed reviews from a French trained perfumer.
great list
Do a Creed buying guide Omar!
I want to hear your thoughts on Nishane Nefs, Mana and Shem!
Happy new year, cant wait for more content from you bro! Would've been fun to see a second and first runner up to really build suspense for ur top picks. Maybe for next new years. Cheers!
My best in collection would be Amouage RT!
Best woody fragrance?
Loewe is pronounced as Lowayvay :) Loewe Esencia EDP is amazing btw.
Definitely not pronounced like that. Just search "how to pronounce loewe''
@MS-pe2vt I'm Spanish.. 😆 I know how to pronounce it lol
Happy new year brother...
Arabian oud resala or ibrahim al.quereshi blue oud ?? Plz recommend me which 1 is the beast.
Omar you should do an imaginary authors buying guide!
I recently just decluttered my collection. And 90% were gourmand. I cannot wear gourmand anymore. Also many Middle Easterns.
Middle Eastern, gourmands, Ambery frags too… Even the most approachable of these-Angel’s share, Oajan, Ambre Tabac, Grand Soir etc I do not like either. It seems like we may be on a similar page, what are your favourites?

Kör azzaro most wanted EDP, sjukt bra!
It’s about time some one notices Loewe 7 I’ve had all the old formulations living in south of Spain and own the first batch of Loewe cobalt
I accidentally ordered the original Loewe 7 instead of the Cobalt version. That one is challenging. I’ve subsequently bought the Cobalt version and love that one.
the original Loewe 7 was one of very few fragrances I really disliked, I didn't get to smell cobalt yet though
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and Happy New Years to you and your family and have a blessed day
You didn’t have to explain why you recommended Afnan, anyone who thinks you’re lying are just haters, love your videos ❤
Happy new year! Great lineup omar.
I want to smell like a warm cinnamon roll. What scents am i looking for
Try celerio epic
Go to Cinnabon
When I see the winners on the video cover, there is no need to watch. Thanks for the shortcut
Azzaro most wanted parfum lesgooooooo
You need to keep the Fragrance name and company on the screen for longer. I would honestly recommend keeping it up the entire time you talk about the fragrance.
Been wanting to get ahold of some of ath's fragrances but they have no samples or discovery sets. Any where you know to find them?
Just did a blind buy of Afnan Supremacy Collector's Edition! Also... I LOVE Versace Eros Energy! What are you talking about?? LOL
@@James-xm3ex Yes, thanks, I mistyped. I am referring to Eros Energy. Yeah, it's similar to Aventus, but I actually prefer it.
Can you recommend more coffee based fragrances? I lived in Thailand and they are really hard to find ones. Thank youu
Al nashama is probably the best clone I've smelt. Straight away bought another bottle as I cant tell the difference against bleu electrique.
Omar as a scent is a rockstar.
This is a great video to end 2024 !!
Im just surprise top Middle Eastern is not something from Amouage..
What did they release this year?
@ If you referring to what Amouage release this year, im not sure..
If you trying to say what Amouage release this year and can make it to Omar’s list or not, it doesn’t matter, Omar already mention in his video, these are the top fragrance in his collection doesnt matter what year it was released or discovered..
You have a good day..
Hey Omar I bought Mr Majestic during pre order when will we get ours in the USA
I like Mercedes Benz Club Black a LOT more than either Azzaro The Most Wanted, does that DNA so much better imo
its not the same dna tho its just pure vanilla ambroxan bomb, very good but gets tiring fast
\
Agree with you 60% Loewe to be replaced with Bleu De Chanel , Afnan supremacy to be replaced with Nishane Hacivat
There is nothing wrong with Eros Energy, IMO. Sauvage Eau Forte should have been in the list. Not all Boss Bottleds are related, why is that even mentioned for Eros Energy? What about Afnan Supremacy is middle eastern in the way that it smells or is blended?

Dude I'm also on the same boat.i don't know why but it feels like a generic scent .

nashama caprice has something that turns me off..i dont know what it is..always if i spray it annoys me ... its not a blindbuy
i was expecting interlude black iris to be your favorite. looks like i was close tho
omar, is the paris oud from naseem a bit woody like swy absolutely? or is it more vanilla
Leans more on the vanilla imo with some woodiness present
@ okay thank you i’m looking to pick it up soon when it comes back in stock. I’ll use ur code ❤️
Nah I love energy. Great sent.
Really good video topic, to be repeated every year
I had l'instant de guerlain pH but I couldn't f with the citrus kaokao combi.. It smells amazing but it just isn't for me I gifted it to someone on Christmas 😁
Can I only apply perfume to my clothes .. will it then project
Try to use a neutral bodylotion and then apply your perfume, dry skin could absorb perfume.
Was expecting to see Roja Burlington 1819, what happened? 😊
where can get a sample of Loewe Cobolt 7
Michael kors pour homme is the BEST clubbing fragrance... thank me letter on this one.
I don’t get the hype about Al Nashama Caprice I did try hard to like it by wearing it few times,going to sell it with Amougae Reflection Man 45 as both gives me a nose a tickle and scent profile is cheap

bro i just bought al nashama caprice it's like water bro, smells nice but lasts 2 hours tops and thats stretching it
I’m so happy you also hate Eros lemon pledge
I don't like gormod frags i dont like smelling of food 😅

Aventus DNA is pretty overrated too and it's dying out now. Explorer is the best imo though!
Kajal Acian has a slightly feminine scent. I prefer Tales from Zanzibar, as it smells better and lacks the feminine touch present in Acian.
Versace Energy is pretty good imo. Very popular too.
