UPDATE: sooo, in the few days since recording this video, my bottle of Al Nashama has changed a bit. It basically transformed to a more faithful Paragon clone. I have no idea why it changed so suddenly. I mean I’ve heard of aging but not this quick 😂 Now it smells like paragon with a bit more creaminess and slight citrus. Have you experienced maceration this quick before?
brooooo i actually had the same thing happen with Fragrance World Intro Aftermath (Initio Side Effect clone.) when i first purchased it the vanilla was over powering however i mindlessly let it sit for a month and macerate. recently revisited it and the booze has definitely pushed itself to the forefront comparing closer to the real deal.
Yes, with Honor and Glory. It's often just a case of emptying the straw inside so I usually give it a shake, do at least 10 sprays then a few each day for a couple of days.
Hello !
So would Al nashama be a better clone of Paragon?
Al Nashama is the closest I’ve smelled. Vintage Radio is a little not more plum heavy
The going theory is that clone house tends to skip a waiting process for the ingredients to mature with little oxygen in the final/semi-final batch before hitting the bottle.
I love the way you explain each perfume. Well thought out and very detailed. Worth the subscribe. I just wish vintage radio would be available worldwide.
Thank you Eli for doing that vs. video. VR it is then. I’ll be picking that one up 👍. Appreciate your love for fragrances and your hard work bringing us the “goods”! 👍
Thank you for posting this video. I am really enjoying your channel.
Thank for the video king!!!!!!❤❤❤
Thanks for three video and great comparison...
Thanks for this comparison. I love the dna so I’ll be getting both!. You have beautiful hair 😍 by the way! Have a great day and stay safe 🙏🏽.
Just got my Vintage Radio. Can't wait to rock it!
Great review!
Good channel. I'm surprised today's the 1st day I ran across it 🍻
Vintage Radio and Afnan 9pm are my most complimented colognes right now. Vintage radio is a beautiful fragrance
I've been hearing great things about both. I'm going to check it out.
@@stephyb4230 it's really good. I got my bottle about 2 months ago
Where did you get the vintage radio?
Vintage radio is a game changer
@@chubi143 I bought mine from Best brands perfume and he has a UA-cam channel as well. He has amazing prices. Also Jomashop did had Vintage radio last time I checked as well
Vintage Radio is a stunning rendition of Initio Paragon. Absolutely no complaints with the performance.
So glad I picked it up. One of the best fragrances in my collection.
Another great video to watch, great comparison!! Can you compare the new Fragrance World Tom Ford dupes against the Maison Alhambra?
Just recieved my Bottle of Vintage Radio. I did the comparison to my Initio Paragon, and yup, right on! From the first spray to the dry down, exactly the same. What a great bang for your buck!
I have both and they are awesome...you can't go wrong with either
Out standing review.
Great review.
Thanks!
Nice content bro 👊
Just subscribed (within a minute haha). Love the energy in the video! Thanks for the comparison 😄
Much appreciated! Welcome to the channel! :)
Nice work
Good video 👍👍
The Vintage Radio layers beautifully with Ishq Al Shuyukh Silver (One Million Lucky clone). Had another channel recommend it.
Can't wait to get vintage radio
Thank u for putting this video out quickly. Which one is fruity from beginning to end
That would be Vintage Radio! 📻
@@commonscentsreviews thank u
I Just Got the al nashama in yesterday and it's such a gorgeous scent. Together with lattafa nasheet(ani clone) it has become one of my favourites already
Nasheet is fire too. Glad you enjoy it!
Have your thoughts changed over time? Is vintage radio still your preference? Love the channel btw!!!
Good video .... in the fashion world i buy expensive things they keep more value...
I found Al Nashama kind of milky and linear on the dry down. After about 2 weeks I'm loving it! I got a 10ml for a steal on Banadirfragrance. Not trying to promote, but otherwise i never would've even bothered trying this. I wanna try Aftermath as a daily wear being its dirt cheap.
I purchased a smaller size (20mil) of Vintage Radio and I'm still testing it out. Wearing it today to see how it handles the colder temps today.
It's a killer in the cold. One of my favorite scents.
I love plum.
Hi friend Steph here from Brooklyn I like your channel. I just liked and subscribed ❤
Hey Steph! Thanks for the love 🙏🏽😊
Vintage radio is so damn good!..didn't find it quite as cheap as Eli did lol..but it was worth every penny
Friend I need something elegant What a projection, much longer than that. Do you recommend that it not be so expensive?
That Casio is pure class 🤌
I think it will would have been nice and helpful if you would've added a link for the CASIO WATCH
Great idea, I just added it to the description! I couldn’t find the exact color on Amazon, but if you search Casio MTP-1370D-1A2 you’ll find the exact color combo
Vintage radio is 🔥, recently got it
Those Lattafa bottles are so clapped tho 😂😭
Vintage radio smells amazing but for some reason I go nose blind after the first 15 to 30 min but I revived lots of complements Even after 6 hours.
What model watch is it? Do you have the casio Duro? Been looking at the Pepsi dial one for the upcoming summer season at the water theme park.
Mine is the MTP-1370D-1A2. I love the Duro but have a bunch of other divers otherwise I’d totally pick it up! That Pepsi is sexy
@@commonscentsreviews yeah I have a few divers, too, but I worry the bracelets might get scratched up going down the slides. The duro can take a beating and comes with a rubber strap. Plus, I don't have a Pepsi dial yet so I'm probably getting it for my next Wild Waves Season pass.
Which Casio is that?
You also forgot to mention you can find paragon on discounters for about $160-$190 which is better than the MSRP. But still a lot of money 😊
Where?
Never heard anyone describe palo Santo as creamy lol. Im sure the palo santo is the incense vibe hes smelling and the creaminess is the sandalwood. Both are notes that I love
Does lattafa al nashama leaning more feminine? In my country we don’t have vintage radio and i don’t know should I blind buy Lattaffa Al Nashama….. Anyone help?
After a couple weeks, it leans very unisex. It’s still a sweet fragrance, so as long as you’re cool with those, I’d recommend it!
What's the highest temperature you would wear vintage radio
I’d say maybe 80deg ☀️
@@commonscentsreviews ok bro... So it cool for summer nights... Thanks 👍🏾
I'm a male 40 years old. I can't find Vintage Radio where I live but I found Al Nashama on Ebay. Do you think men can rock Al Nashama? Thanks!
Absolutely, I’ve been rocking it for a while now! Since the original review, it’s balanced out a bit and smells super unisex. Go for Al Nashama!
@@commonscentsreviews Thank you!!
I ordered Vintage Radio from Jomashop, and I'm waiting for it to get here. It said shipped in 3 - 5 days, so I'm hoping I don't have much longer to wait. I ordered on the 16th soooo....
I ordered something from there in Jan 11. It is supposed to arrive today. We will see.
@@JamesBond-zd5jx Did your Tracking move at all?? I'm stressed out at this point. The Tracking is still stuck on "Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item" I'll never order from Jomashop again. Smh.
@@mrmozez1500 it took a significant while for anything to change. Probably a good week. Then another week of the track passage email. Today I got an email that said delivered. I’ll know in a couple of hours when I get home.
@@JamesBond-zd5jx Wow. I can't believe it takes that long. I'm in NYC, and the shipping label was created in Brooklyn! No way it should take this long, when it's so close to my home. Smh. Thanks Brother!
@@mrmozez1500 you’re welcome.
❤
Nice review however there were a lot of LITTLE BITS😁
I’m a Cali guy so I got a lot of “Little bit’s” and “kind of’s” 😂😂
I would buy vintage radio if not for the silly name and bottle
Thats just stupid
I'm a big fan of middle Eastern fragrance House but they are now just ripping us by simply RE BOTTLING the same fragrance "juice" to different bottles/ shapes and collections name. And btw when it comes to that aroma therapy relaxing experience then i think Ahmed Al Maghribi Oud Lavender beats Initio's Paragon hands Down
Woah I’ll look that one up! That sounds right up my alley
I think that Al nashama is the first batch and vintage radio is the second batch is a more better blended .
Bravooooo
Hey just some friendly advice as someone who watches a lot of fragrance YT. You seem like a very chill, down to earth and genuine reviewer. I think it would help to, instead of saying "a lot of friends asked me about this" or "a lot of women asked me" it would be great to give a specific number. Even if it's only 1 or 2, i'm personally kinda burnt out on the reviewers who talk about recieving a TON of complements from a TON of women, where EVERYONE asks "what are you wearing!?". IDK, jsut my 2c
Hey! I totally feel you. Not every fragrance gets me compliments and sometimes it's just a handful like you said. With Vintage Radio, almost every time I've worn it out or around people I know, someone has asked about it. I appreciate the feedback
I guess what scent reviews is trying to say is he genuinely enjoys giving his reviews that are authentic and not for stats. Many people today only care to smell good to gain attention and not because it aligns with their personality/ self. Either you’re worried about perfumes because you care what people think and not what you feel to explore. I think the videos are great as is. Thank you scents for being you and proving us with true and honest reviews 😊 and I know they take a lot of time so thank you 🙏
I can not stand Vintage Radio. Every frag reviewers let me down on this one. It smells like the 1980's giant Avon Powder and pad. It's so nauseating. Idk if it's the lavender or what? It is the same with Lattafa Ramz Silver. Both smell like Grandma Powder.
STOP WEARING PERFUME 😂
@chubi143 vintage radio definitely smells like old lady perfume. The lattaf Ramz Silver actually matured and has a great smell. It's feminine af though, so my wife wears it now.
It's the lavender.
@@SherlockDave thank you.
