Clones may be the future of fragrances. Many of them are starting to smell just as good as the ones that they’re copying, and they cost so much less (generally). How much longer will people want to spend $250-$400 for a frag when they can buy one that smells just as good for less than $100?
I agree with you and i hope brands take note. However, this could also be said for designer clothes. People feel better psychologically paying for the real deal instead of the knock off, even if same material is used. They play with our psychology and know we will buy no matter the cost
@@ChadSecrets It’s up to the CONSUMERS to become less enamored by the “status” of buying something with a “name brand”whether it’s a fragrance or clothing or whatever. We ought to focus more on the QUALITY of the product. I was in a store recently and saw a pair of Versace sunglasses that cost HUNDREDS of dollars..crazy, right? But there are a lot of people who’d buy them just so they’re rocking some Versace shades. And there are glasses that costs less than 50 dollars that look exactly the same!
Clone will never be the future because tey are a copy if an OG. You can not have clone with out the OG. I' M A CLONE GUY BECAUSE at the end of the month i only have 150 $ . But if i hab money i will buy both the clone for evry day and the OG for the special occasion
You aren’t right, Clones are just like buying a xiaomi instead of a samsung or iphone, yeah they do practically the same but there is a lot more things involved that only functionality (in this case smell) The experience of buying, the brand itself, the history, the quality of ingredients, just as everything in world there are products in different budgets, that solve the same problem , and that’s ok. It’s nice to have clones and also is nice to have expensive niche fragrances for up 300$
for khamrah, i would say that it’s not really a good clone for angel’s share. it’s near the dna, but it’s definitely something different. I work at a restaurant and this fragrance is loud. I’ve gotten compliments with it. it’s definitely a twist on killian’s.
Kismet Angel is the better copy - Khamrah is its own powerhouse frag that is just similar to Angels share but its clearly its own lovely DNA @ChadSecrets
i got khamrah today. i wore it to school and got multiple compliments as it projected off my skin like crazy and lingers behind me for multiple meters. its amazing, definetly a christmas scent tho
@@MikfinityPogif you spray 2-3 no one’s gonna smell you bro it’s only with really strong scents you do that if you always wearing cologne and no one ever comments on it that’s probably why
@@BertRussell4711 It’s not a mispronunciation or wrong - it’s a nuance of a Canadian accent. Let’s appreciate (and not correct) cultural and regional variations. Great video, Chad!
@@Wayne-Oh I queried ChatGPT with the question, "How do Canadians pronounce the word 'fragrance'?" Here's how it responded: Canadians generally pronounce "fragrance" similarly to Americans, with the primary stress on the first syllable: FRAY-grance /ˈfreɪɡrəns/. The first syllable sounds like "fray," rhyming with "day," while the second syllable is pronounced with a reduced vowel, sounding like "grance" with a soft "uh" or "ins" sound. This is consistent across most regions in Canada, though accents can subtly influence the pronunciation. So, nice try, Skippy.
@@adamonmp4 Stalin's Fart Breeze of MFI ( Moscow fragrance industry) is the best ( similiary stinky and much stronger then Sauvage Elixir) but they don't produce it anymore.
I picked up the Lattafa Asad and Khamrah in the same order and love them both! I also especially love layering of both of them together… Wow! Am about to pull the trigger on Detour Noir and Gary’s Den down the road. Another great review, brother👏👏👏
I never thought of layering those two but ill give it a go! I could see it going nicely together. Let me know your thoughts if you get those other two. Thanks for watching!!
Not sure if guess 1981 Los Angeles is a clone of invictus, but I’ve heard they’re very similar. I’m not used to sweet fragrances, but it’s starting to grow on me. I just make sure I don’t wear it daily as I think I’d get sick of it. Oh and impressive being a one man team. I coulda swore you had a few people behind you helping to get out these videos. Exceptional quality. Keep it up
@David_L178 Guess 1981 i get mostly a similarity to Eros. That being said i have only smelled it now a couple times. I appreciate that! Its the reason i dont upload as much as some other creators but i believe in quality over quantity. I appreciate your support!!
You know what would be a good idea for a video? Battling 2 lines one against the other and conclude which do you think is better. For example, the 1 million line vs Jean paul guttier or stronger with you. Sauvage by dior line against The Luna rosa by prada line, act act.
Chad, i really liked this video. I would love to pick your brain on learning some of the video editing tricks you did in this (my channel is completely unrelated to this content)
Try “Amber & Leather” from Alhambra which is a clone of ombre leather from Tom ford and Agar oud from nich4all which is a clone of oud wood. I like them both better than the originals.
The Khamrah review is the most correct way to describe it.. i watched other youtubers non of them mentioned the Alchocholic whiskey smell only you! it totally reminds me of whisky mixed with some spicy and sweet notes .. vanilla too.. but overall this parfume is such a masterpiece and very affordable.
i want to recomend some i hope you review them since they are why i started going for some clone : -Afnan supremacy in Oud ( initio oud for greatness) -Afnan turathi blue ( a tygar clone with hints of bdc) -Lattafa Eternal oud ( TM plum japonais meets ani and mfk grand soir but mfk is the winner like 80%) -Al haramain amber oud tobacco edition ( trust me with these u will never buy tm tobacco vanille)
I've spent close a grand replacing bottles of Layton. Detour Noir was a recommendation from a friend of mine. When I finally got my nose on it, it literally shook my soul! I still have 1/2 bottle of Layton left. But once it's gone, it's going to be REALLY hard to justify buying it again! In fact, I probably won't! 😂
Asad doesn't last long at all and Detour is a superbeast. I blind bought Qaed, super pineapple scent and its a beast, super strong to the point where i spray it on my waist 😅 gives me headaches but i have received compliments from women
The Dior Elixer clone is pretty close but as you mentioned dialed down so you can spray more. Highly recommend for the price as I’ve been using and will get another bottle
I got Lattafa Asad last week and loved it straight away! Yesterday I got a sample of Sauvage Elixir and I love it even better! I love the liquorice so much! However it is 145 euros for 60ml compared to 28 euros I paid for Lattafa Asad. Don't think it is for teenagers. More 30+
Half my collection is clones. These major designer/niche houses over charge the consumer for pure greed. Most of the time the clones are STRONGER. The originals are blended better & less synthetic.
great review and yeah at first i got disturbed with clone because i was feeling no way they can't be these close... Dont get me wrong quality is upped in some designers and more in niche but i feel its not worth +130$ for it ( in general depending on which vs we are talking) i would gladly keep my Og for occasion and use some of the clones for routine
Yeah, designer and niche prices have gotten way out of hand. When i first started, i really didn't like clones because it didn't feel right. Now im siding with these clone houses 😅
@@ChadSecrets lol same mentality here in algeria designer reached an astronomical price if i had to give to convert them is us dollar pricewould be : afnan 9pm : 30$ , Jpg ultra male 135$, armaf cdnim limited : 65$ and creed aventus 500$ 😆
The one I’m interested in is Gary’s Den. Weird name btw. I picture some guy named Gary living in his moms den playing video games all day lol. But the notes interest me. And the price is really good. Any idea what the longevity is? Thanks again for the reviews. Question, who does your editing? I kinda like it. Keeps my attention. Later Chad
I do everything myself. Im a one man team! I try my best to keep viewers' attention. i really dont like wasting peoples time. And i agree with the Garys den name hahaha 🤣🤣
Be the clone guy! 😂 Can you rate them in accuracy, projection, and overall likeability? I think it would add to the value of your videos. Me personally, I don't give a shit about the box or the presentation. But, I know there's people out there that value cardboard and take their bottle to show off at bars 🤔, so I get why you do it. But, great video. I'm subbed.
@@ChadSecrets perfect! I wouldn't want it any other way. A lot of clones I have to blind by because I can't find em brick and mortar. So, keep in mind... You're spending my money brotha lol
Also, I thought of another great idea reques that hasn't really been done too much. How about doing videos on LAYERING clones. It hasn't really be done and would be an excellent way to save money and smell awesome and uncommon. You'd have to do some experimentation though.
I can recommend some more good clones for you Cdnim (aventus) Marjan silver (bdc) Ventana (sauvage edp) Modest une (sauvage edt) Enigma une (sauvage elixir) Tres nuit (green Irish tweed) Cuba royal (1M prive) Cuba gold (le male) Ramz silver (better than 9pm)
Bought a real tester one million lucky for 5 eu a one million clone for 2eu a so Scandal for 3eu and a tom Ford black Orchid knockoff for 4 eu in Egypt/morroco 🎉 now look for my teenage favorite le male in Turkey 😍
That's a hard question because that's based on which dna i like the most. Some clones are great clones but i just dont like the fragrance they are cloning. So far CDNIM Le Parfum is very good for me and replaced my need for a good aventus batch. I really like the Aventus dna
My friend actually if you spray around 8 10 or more sprays during a day and a few right before going out you're loud af and I noticed that on the dry down it's more savageesc
I recently have jumped into the clone ring. Haven’t purchased anything yet but have watched a lot of videos on UA-cam lol. I was wondering if u are going to review any Alexandria Fragrances or Parfums Vintage? Apparently they are very good but ain’t exactly cheap..
Just be careful with the clone game because a lot of those houses are paying reviewers. Just make sure you can trust the opinions of whoever speaks on clones. I personally will look into them and see which ones are good. I have plenty of non biased clone videos on the way!!
@@ChadSecrets if u do put in an order for Alexandria Frags perhaps check out Dark Knight, Zion, Hawaii Volcano, Tuscan King just to name a few.. Or maybe even I’d get in on it as well n we’d split the shipping
I think the bottle of Khamrah was just to get people to notice it. Literally everyone realizes that it's not an Angel Share clone. It's a brilliant fragrance and I'm going to buy several more just because. I just ordered the Qahwa and hope that it doesn't disappoint!
Great video! A fun fact about these Middle Eastern fragrances is most of them they don't use perfume alcohol for their ingredients, rather oil. Reasoning is due to the high heat in the Middle East; Alcohol tends to dispates a lot quicker instead of oil! Anyways you should've bought Enigma Une instead of Lataffa Asad as it's more closer more louder and better clone of Dior Sauvage Elixir.
Thanks for watching and i appreciate you letting me know that about Middle Eastern fragrances. I did not know! I will be making a part 2 to this video with more clones very soon
If i want to buy the clone perfume Which or these two will you recommend latafa asad or detour noir? In term of over all perfomance, longevity, sillage and projection?
I reccomend you try both the fragrances they are cloning. I know thats not the answer you are looking for, but those are two very good fragrances that are hard to choose between. Maybe just get both it will be rather cheap 👌
I just got decants of both khamrah and qaed al fursah. I like em both but for the qaed, I feel a better version of it is amber oud gold. For khamrah is good but smells more like a candle scent imo. I used to have detour noir but sold it as it was too oudy/animalistic for me. I think a better clone of it is amber oud bleu exclusif, it's indistinguishable to layton imo
Hey, fair enough! I'm just starting my deep dive into clones, so I'm not an expert in this category yet. I agree on candle scent though, never thought of it that way hahah
@@ChadSecrets yeah khamrah is giving straight Yankee candle vibes but it good. I'f you're going into clones I'd try rasasi dareej, clone of valetino V. You're videos are great quality dude, deserve wayy more subs 👍
I appreciate you putting your trust in me. I honestly forgot i had it and havent given it much testing so i will test it and make a video and or let you know asap
According to Aromatix Khamrah is not a clone of Angel share but another middle eastern fragrance, he made a whole video about it. Great smelling fragrance nonetheless, already got myself a backup.
you may be a perfume expert to tell the difference if blind smell it :), that's Why clones will take over the market and they will make their own version.
@@ChadSecrets What is the batch of your asad? Mine is 08.2023. For me it doesn t perform as well as people mention it, i think. I am curious what about yours?
Short answer: No they are not. For experienced noses quality difference will be obvious in most cases. I think feeling of using fake frags is absolutely the same as using fake watches, fake shoes and cheap jeans. I bought quite a few clones and i regretted gravely afterwards every single time! Quality of the original is always there for the ones who acknowledge and appreciate it.
Yes, the quality of the original is better. But production costs are probably not much different. Not usually enough to warrant a 10x price difference. Not everyone can afford the original, and these are great options in that scenario.
@@ChadSecrets Yes I agree that profit margins are much higher in original luxury products. But that’s the sense of it) We just allow ourselves using a luxury product and feel good about it. Besides, in the drydown many clones reveal their nasty undertones. I mean I just feel that they are chemically waay inferior. Blend and ingredient quality is just not there.
@AytugArtun come on i wouldnt say nasty. Just not as good! I agree though im not the biggest fan of clones and copying but for some thats the only option they have
i'm no longer a hater on the clones because i swear to god Walmart now has two $8 dollar fragrances that smell just as good if not better than Drakkar Noir and Polo Blue. I couldn't believe my nose and I have the real (newer revision) formula.
We have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory but God sent his son Jesus Christ who died and rose again so we can be free from our sin and know God, Repent and believe in Jesus!❤️
The reason why people don't believe in what you're saying, is because most of it is mostly made up. Take for Instance, you teach that Christ died on a Friday and arose Sunday morning, not true. That his name is Jesus, not true. That Isaiah 7:14 prophecies his virgin birth, not true. That Christ is God, not true. It's about time you put those misunderstanding right before you start telling people about saving grace.
@@dennydee1004 I don’t believe Jesus died on Friday and rose on Sunday, but I do believe he died and rose again on the 3rd day I don’t believe Jesus’s original name was Jesus but rather a Hebrew name, still nothing changes According to the Bible Jesus is God Titus 2:13, and many other instances
Among 9pm, khamrah, detour noir and cdn iconic which one is better performance and good for daily use.is there any other clone fragrances good for wearing pls sharing thanks
@@CHUBIBO143They’re cloning different fragrances (Adventus and BDC) club de nuit has a more abrasive start but dries down to something really nice. Most recommend the limited edition as the initial blast is toned down. Iconic smells a bit like BDC and Versace pour homme?
Layton seems really overhyped. It feels like influencers might be paid to promote it, or they should be clearer in their reviews. After all the social media buzz, I bought it recently, and I’m honestly disappointed. It lacks longevity, and comparing it to Layton by PDM is a shame.
Kismet Angel by Maison Alhambra Sharaf Blend by Zimaya Cocktail Intense by Fragrance World these are the closest to the original, try it if you haven't :)
I tired elixir and Asad on my body, Asad got zero chance against Elixir. Here is an example of how they are different. If you blend one ruined orange with 1 litre of water VS you picked the best quality orange blend it without adding water. And come tells me the first orange glass tastes very close to the second one?!! Just because you didn't blend a tomato instead doesn't make it close to what pure orange juice tastes like.
⭐️ Shudda bought Al Dirham ( channel sport) 🔥 , Kismet 🔥 , Oud 24 ( Black Orchid but ten times better than T Ford ) The above perform the same and better than the Synthetic crap , Middle Eastern Fragrances are the better option , don’t buy the commercial 💩
@@ChadSecrets no not really. Good is a relative term. They fit all the criteria of a good fragrance. They project well and last. The scent itself being good as in favorable is subjective. The rest not so much. But they really good. You’re just late to the party. Most of theses have been lauded for years for a reason. I own most. So I would know personally
This fragrance is not beast mode. But like most middle eastern fragrances they will be much stronger after a couple months. I like the performance and scent of the cdnim limited edition parfum!
most overhyped for me is coach and f ferragamo black, i cant recall which one but one smells like pee on the drydown and other one smells like grandma's perfume with smoke. They both smell so cheap. For underrated cheap for me is aspen and ferrari black which is classy like hugo boss bottled but with somewhat fresh manly scent. My daily signature scent is lacoste blanc eau fraiche and versace pour homme, both pleasant non offensive at office setting.

Be the clone guy! 😂 Can you rate them in accuracy, projection, and overall likeability? I think it would add to the value of your videos. Me personally, I don't give a shit about the box or the presentation. But, I know there's people out there that value cardboard and take their bottle to show off at bars 🤔, so I get why you do it. But, great video. I'm subbed.
I appreciate it, thank you!. I am going to be doing a lot more clone videos coming soon. But im going to be critical on them though so prepare 😅
@@ChadSecrets perfect! I wouldn't want it any other way. A lot of clones I have to blind by because I can't find em brick and mortar. So, keep in mind... You're spending my money brotha lol
Don't put my pockets on a diet without seeing results! 🤣
Also, I thought of another great idea reques that hasn't really been done too much. How about doing videos on LAYERING clones. It hasn't really be done and would be an excellent way to save money and smell awesome and uncommon. You'd have to do some experimentation though.
@jpfitch3492 i like that idea it is awesome. Thank you i will write it down !!
You seem pretty cool, I think your channel can make it big!
I appreciate that a lot. Thank you!
I can recommend some more good clones for you
Cdnim (aventus)
Marjan silver (bdc)
Ventana (sauvage edp)
Modest une (sauvage edt)
Enigma une (sauvage elixir)
Tres nuit (green Irish tweed)
Cuba royal (1M prive)
Cuba gold (le male)
Ramz silver (better than 9pm)
Very nice. Thank you for the recommendations. i will add them to my list! 😁
Where did you buy these? I am in Canada as well@@ChadSecrets
@klopl100 check links in my description. Most them are available there. Fragrancebuy and perfumeonline 👌
Bought a real tester one million lucky for 5 eu a one million clone for 2eu a so Scandal for 3eu and a tom Ford black Orchid knockoff for 4 eu in Egypt/morroco 🎉 now look for my teenage favorite le male in Turkey 😍
Wow those are very good prices!
Whats the best among all clones if you have to pick one for rest of your life
That's a hard question because that's based on which dna i like the most. Some clones are great clones but i just dont like the fragrance they are cloning.
So far CDNIM Le Parfum is very good for me and replaced my need for a good aventus batch. I really like the Aventus dna
My friend actually if you spray around 8 10 or more sprays during a day and a few right before going out you're loud af and I noticed that on the dry down it's more savageesc
With what fragrance?
It's not about the price because a fragrance won't cost more than 5-10 us dollars to manufacture it's the brand and the name around it
You are forgetting some things in that price equation but yeah
I recently have jumped into the clone ring. Haven’t purchased anything yet but have watched a lot of videos on UA-cam lol. I was wondering if u are going to review any Alexandria Fragrances or Parfums Vintage? Apparently they are very good but ain’t exactly cheap..
Just be careful with the clone game because a lot of those houses are paying reviewers. Just make sure you can trust the opinions of whoever speaks on clones. I personally will look into them and see which ones are good. I have plenty of non biased clone videos on the way!!
@@ChadSecrets if u do put in an order for Alexandria Frags perhaps check out Dark Knight, Zion, Hawaii Volcano, Tuscan King just to name a few.. Or maybe even I’d get in on it as well n we’d split the shipping
I think the bottle of Khamrah was just to get people to notice it. Literally everyone realizes that it's not an Angel Share clone. It's a brilliant fragrance and I'm going to buy several more just because. I just ordered the Qahwa and hope that it doesn't disappoint!
Its a twist of angels share and drydown is similar. There are clones that get closer however
Great video! A fun fact about these Middle Eastern fragrances is most of them they don't use perfume alcohol for their ingredients, rather oil. Reasoning is due to the high heat in the Middle East; Alcohol tends to dispates a lot quicker instead of oil! Anyways you should've bought Enigma Une instead of Lataffa Asad as it's more closer more louder and better clone of Dior Sauvage Elixir.
Thanks for watching and i appreciate you letting me know that about Middle Eastern fragrances. I did not know!
I will be making a part 2 to this video with more clones very soon
If i want to buy the clone perfume
Which or these two will you recommend latafa asad or detour noir?
In term of over all perfomance, longevity, sillage and projection?
I reccomend you try both the fragrances they are cloning. I know thats not the answer you are looking for, but those are two very good fragrances that are hard to choose between. Maybe just get both it will be rather cheap 👌
Qued Al Fursan is supposedly like a combination of Creed Adventus and Baccarat Rouge 540.
I have it and like it.
Quad al fursan pineapple magic
I just got decants of both khamrah and qaed al fursah. I like em both but for the qaed, I feel a better version of it is amber oud gold. For khamrah is good but smells more like a candle scent imo. I used to have detour noir but sold it as it was too oudy/animalistic for me. I think a better clone of it is amber oud bleu exclusif, it's indistinguishable to layton imo
Hey, fair enough! I'm just starting my deep dive into clones, so I'm not an expert in this category yet. I agree on candle scent though, never thought of it that way hahah
@@ChadSecrets yeah khamrah is giving straight Yankee candle vibes but it good. I'f you're going into clones I'd try rasasi dareej, clone of valetino V. You're videos are great quality dude, deserve wayy more subs 👍
@danialhashmi6078 thank you for watching and the comments, it means a lot to me!
I bought detour noir and put it away for about a year in a drawer and forgot about it and now it seems to be 10 times stronger.
Ill revisit mine for review very soon!
Layering suggestion.....Khamrah & Halloween Man X
I feel like that would just smell like Khamrah Qahwa though!
@ChadSecrets it sure would...I'm not sure if you own it or not but thats my alternative vs buying it.
Great video as always my brotha. Where you get your chain from?
This was a gift from my grandmother. She is very kind 😁
Qaed Al Fursan is rumored to be a clone of Paco Rabanne Black XS. I haven’t smelled Fursan myself but I love Black XS.
Quad al fursan pineapple magic
I just got Qaed Al Fursan and it smells really good, noticed by many ppl around me
I really like it. Its one of my favorite affordable fragrances right now
@@ChadSecrets Good to hear that, I will try to layer it with Cedrat Boise and see if I could pull anything legendary out of it.
Lattafa Asad or Detour Noir? Suggest me one blind buy.
I dont suggest blind buying. I suggest you try what they are cloning and see what you like better first
which do you like more between detour noir and khamra? since both are kind of cold weather.
Both are two different clones of two diffeenr fragrances. Detour noir is more complex though
@ChadSecrets thanks I'll get get the khamra qahwa then
I don't like the drydown of Khamrah. It opens fine. Angel's Share and Oajan both have a far better wearing experience for me. (And 1 Million Privè)
How’s the longevity on Gary’s den? You’re one of the few reviewers I trust.
I appreciate you putting your trust in me. I honestly forgot i had it and havent given it much testing so i will test it and make a video and or let you know asap
@@ChadSecrets Thank you very much. Such a Chad
Qaed al fursan is a mix between BR540 + Aventus, same as DUA's Casino Elixir 2.0 but Casino is way better
I personally do not think its close to either
According to Aromatix Khamrah is not a clone of Angel share but another middle eastern fragrance, he made a whole video about it. Great smelling fragrance nonetheless, already got myself a backup.
Yeah, it just smells like a twist of angels share to me. It's not the same and not redundant to own both!
¿Y como huelen después de 20 minutos? ¿1 hora? ¿5 horas?.. Una cosa es la salida. Muchas se asemejan mas en el secado
My translator is not working for this sentence. If you mean how they perform, then i can update in the individual reviews 😁
@@ChadSecrets"how do they smell after 20 minutes, 1 hour, 5 hours, one thing is the opening, many resemble more during the drydown"
@@Snapple316 i appreciate you! Thank you
I can definitely do that for sure! I will go in detail on all the reviews thank you
Lataffa gold extrait is an excellent clone of 1million
Ill try it out. Thank you for letting me know!
you may be a perfume expert to tell the difference if blind smell it :), that's Why clones will take over the market and they will make their own version.
They may but people would still rather buy designer purses than knockoffs no matter how good
@@ChadSecrets What is the batch of your asad? Mine is 08.2023. For me it doesn t perform as well as people mention it, i think. I am curious what about yours?
@alex3376 I don't think there has been a reformulation, Its just a bit over hyped to sell here on youtube
You should try out the clone house Montagne
I'll definitely look into it! Thank you 😁
Short answer: No they are not.
For experienced noses quality difference will be obvious in most cases. I think feeling of using fake frags is absolutely the same as using fake watches, fake shoes and cheap jeans.
I bought quite a few clones and i regretted gravely afterwards every single time!
Quality of the original is always there for the ones who acknowledge and appreciate it.
Yes, the quality of the original is better. But production costs are probably not much different. Not usually enough to warrant a 10x price difference. Not everyone can afford the original, and these are great options in that scenario.
@@ChadSecrets Yes I agree that profit margins are much higher in original luxury products. But that’s the sense of it) We just allow ourselves using a luxury product and feel good about it.
Besides, in the drydown many clones reveal their nasty undertones. I mean I just feel that they are chemically waay inferior. Blend and ingredient quality is just not there.
@AytugArtun come on i wouldnt say nasty. Just not as good! I agree though im not the biggest fan of clones and copying but for some thats the only option they have
@@ChadSecrets Maybe I overreacted a bit) But still if I’m o a budget my choice would be an affordable designer over a cheap clone.
@@AytugArtun and i totally can understand that. Nothing wrong with having standards
How is the new version of the 9pm perfume? How long is the perity of the perfume?
I have a full review talking about my newer bottle. Check it out if you want
@@ChadSecrets can you give me the link of the video
honestly the best clone of a expensive fragrance is club de nuit it is the clone Creed Aventus
Thats my favorite and the reason i wont buy aventus
What one is the best?
Detour noir or khamrah i would say
Thumbs up to Khamrah. I think it's fantastic.
Do you know any clone that smells like Givenchy Gentleman Reserve Privée, or One Million by Paco Rabanne?
Unfortunately not!
How loud and room filling is Detour Noir?
It's not too loud!
i'm no longer a hater on the clones because i swear to god Walmart now has two $8 dollar fragrances that smell just as good if not better than Drakkar Noir and Polo Blue. I couldn't believe my nose and I have the real (newer revision) formula.
We have all sinned and fallen short of Gods glory but God sent his son Jesus Christ who died and rose again so we can be free from our sin and know God, Repent and believe in Jesus!❤️
What the hell dude
The reason why people don't believe in what you're saying, is because most of it is mostly made up. Take for Instance, you teach that Christ died on a Friday and arose Sunday morning, not true. That his name is Jesus, not true. That Isaiah 7:14 prophecies his virgin birth, not true. That Christ is God, not true. It's about time you put those misunderstanding right before you start telling people about saving grace.
@@Sh.addehlwi huh?
@@dennydee1004 I don’t believe Jesus died on Friday and rose on Sunday, but I do believe he died and rose again on the 3rd day
I don’t believe Jesus’s original name was Jesus but rather a Hebrew name, still nothing changes
According to the Bible Jesus is God Titus 2:13, and many other instances
amen
Interesting pronunciation of alcohol and fragrance. Are those typically canadian?
Yes haha i always get made fun of for it 😅
Among 9pm, khamrah, detour noir and cdn iconic which one is better performance and good for daily use.is there any other clone fragrances good for wearing pls sharing thanks
If the club de nuit blue iconic is what you kean that would be the most versatile of them if it's like Bleu de chanel
@ChadSecrets which of the club unit better the cdnim or this one the iconic?
@@ChadSecrets which h one better the intense or iconic ?
@@CHUBIBO143They’re cloning different fragrances (Adventus and BDC) club de nuit has a more abrasive start but dries down to something really nice. Most recommend the limited edition as the initial blast is toned down. Iconic smells a bit like BDC and Versace pour homme?
nice vids, i excpted you to have mcuh more subscribers
Thank you i appreciate that! Hopefully one day
Layton seems really overhyped. It feels like influencers might be paid to promote it, or they should be clearer in their reviews. After all the social media buzz, I bought it recently, and I’m honestly disappointed. It lacks longevity, and comparing it to Layton by PDM is a shame.
Are you talking the clone or actual layton thats not good?
@@ChadSecrets Oh Yeah! I meant Detour Noir. Typo!💀
Lattafa puts hella money into their packaging but fuck lmfao it STANKS
Haha its still pretty good value for the money
Khamrah is not a 1 to 1 clone. So i dont consider it a clone. But as its own fragrance is good
Fair enough! I will go in depth with this soon 😁
Khamrah isn't a good clone of Angel's Share but it has the best SPL among other clones
I will be getting a more accurate clone to battle them together
Kismet Angel by Maison Alhambra
Sharaf Blend by Zimaya
Cocktail Intense by Fragrance World
these are the closest to the original, try it if you haven't :)
Bro can you tell which one iss good for summer ?
You mean of the ones in this video? Or fragrance in general
Khamrah is so good to me. Grabbing another bottle soon. Atomizer is horrible fyi
Absolutely horrible atomizer. But very much improved in the new Qahwa!
@@ChadSecrets I'll have to try Qahwa for sure
Did you got your Qahwa?
How does it smell differently than Khamrah? @@jasonbland1549
Which should I buy for my boyfriend. Our anniversary is on 6th October.
Please tell me??
What is your budget and what fragrances does he like?
@@ChadSecrets my budget is 2.5k and he likes aquatic as well as musky smell.....Like Dior sauvage, Creed, Yves.
I tired elixir and Asad on my body, Asad got zero chance against Elixir.
Here is an example of how they are different.
If you blend one ruined orange with 1 litre of water VS you picked the best quality orange blend it without adding water. And come tells me the first orange glass tastes very close to the second one?!!
Just because you didn't blend a tomato instead doesn't make it close to what pure orange juice tastes like.
I agree and will be detailing it in my full review. Not a big fan of asad
Damn thats tuff
@@jumol 😂
Thank you for posting this helpful video
Thank you for watching!
Hello, where can i buy the clones online?
My description is i have all the places to buy from. Fragrancebuy, perfumeonline, jomashop
qaed al fursan is pretty close to Hacivat Nishane!
What would you recomment i go for, Afnan 9PM or Khamrah?
I think Afnan 9pm is the safer blind buy of the two
bought it yesterday and i love it! thx so much@@ChadSecrets
Layering Qaed Al Fursan with CDNIM is a nice combo.
Sounds very nice!
What is CDNIM?
Club de nuit intense men@@macoLSS965
@@macoLSS965Club de Nuit Intense Man
I can't find the Gary's Den. Where'd you get it from?
Its a fragrancebuy exclusive. Its there brand!
@@ChadSecrets thanks! 👍🏾
⭐️
Shudda bought Al Dirham ( channel sport) 🔥 , Kismet 🔥 , Oud 24 ( Black Orchid but ten times better than T Ford )
The above perform the same and better than the Synthetic crap , Middle Eastern Fragrances are the better option , don’t buy the commercial 💩
I will look into those. Thank you!
Can you compare rave now with qaed al fursan?
I prefer Qaed al fursan
Of course they are good. Hence the hype
Thats subjective
@@ChadSecrets no not really. Good is a relative term. They fit all the criteria of a good fragrance. They project well and last. The scent itself being good as in favorable is subjective. The rest not so much. But they really good. You’re just late to the party. Most of theses have been lauded for years for a reason. I own most. So I would know personally
i looked it up on google it says that qaed el fursan is a clone of creed aventus but i feel that they arent that similer tbh
Yeah they are not similar to me at all other than pineapple
Qaed al Fursan was not made as a clone. However combining it with CDNIM will make it smell just like Aventus
Is detour noir worth it
Its actually a pretty good clone!
is the khamra good in performance? would you say its beast mode? do you also have recommendation for beast mode clones that you may own ?
This fragrance is not beast mode. But like most middle eastern fragrances they will be much stronger after a couple months. I like the performance and scent of the cdnim limited edition parfum!
@@ChadSecrets thanks, I will look into those as well
most overhyped for me is coach and f ferragamo black, i cant recall which one but one smells like pee on the drydown and other one smells like grandma's perfume with smoke. They both smell so cheap. For underrated cheap for me is aspen and ferrari black which is classy like hugo boss bottled but with somewhat fresh manly scent. My daily signature scent is lacoste blanc eau fraiche and versace pour homme, both pleasant non offensive at office setting.
Honest reviews 👍🏻👌🏼🙏🏻
Thanks for watching!

I appreciate that thank you!!
bro, Club de Nuit Intense??
Clone fragrances like Arnaf, Lataffa, etc .. are better than the OG.
That i can not agree with. Only thing better is the price and the rest is hype
