You even managed to capture the shock of finding that in the subtle camera movement, almost like you couldn't believe what you were seeing haha. Great find!
Gerard, its almost like you’re living in some kind of crazy alternate reality finding a PDM fragrance at a Marshall’s. Wow! With the gift cards it was definitely a no brainer and you even got me wanting to revist my bottle of Pegasus. Even with all the newer releases over the past several years this one is still totally unique and it always garners compliments. One of the brand’s best creations in my opinion.
I feel like that sometimes especially when so many people say their stores have nothing. Although the selection has improved for many since they started licking them up!
Thanks for the video drop to start the weekend off. Enjoy your Friday, Gerard. Best.
Dude, omg.. if I saw something like that, I'd also buy it up immediately. Regardless of price, although, that was worth the price you paid. ❤
Gyat dayum, always with the incredible finds, that sounds like it smells awesome. I love almond stuff!
OK so my theory is these rack stores get really limited quantities of the expensive stuff, so it kinda makes sense why you'd send your limited supply to major cities (and their suburbs) rather than middle America where I am, where they risk sitting and being discounted.
Whoa I wouldn't expect to find a Parfums de Marley in Ross! Crazy. And that bottle is so badass! I love metallic bottles haha
great find. one of my favorites. the exclusive is also very good, haven't had great luck lately at the racks.
Good find Gerard, I have Armaf Craze the clone for it but I can't find a time to wear it. I'm glad you got the PDM. Stay safe brother
Hey Gerard. Nice find. Not my favorite PDM scent but, I do like it. Never pulled the full bottle trigger. It might tempt me at that price though. Especially in store and for immediate gratification. I did buy the Al Haramain version, Royal Stallion which will suffice.Thanks for the video.
Your Marshall's is pretty awesome. Great find!
So, sometimes my tastes can be a little less refined, lol. I like Pegasus a lot, but I actually prefer the clone Armaf Craze. Yes, it is less well-rounded, and not even close to the smoothness that PDM does so well in their fragrances. But I actually love that harsh almond note hitting me in the face and the vanilla drifting behind in the opening of Craze. And by the time you get to the drydown, even the PDM salesperson thinks I'm wearing Pegasus. Craze was $19 when I bought it.
However, I've watched enough of your videos that I think you'd be happier with Pegasus than you would be with Craze because you tend to appreciate frags with a lot of naturals, and Pegasus wins that comparison by a mile.
Do you have Contra "Pharos" by Camara. I think they made a pretty good rendition of the fragrance. Would you compare?
@@gerardgeorge thanks for the confirmation Gerard. If I had the budget for the real bottle I would buy for sure. Pharos is one of my favorite cheapies. I own 2 of them.
Awesome find and deal after those GC's Gerard. Today I found Montale Soleil de Capri at Ross of all rack stores for $50 100ml bottle.
Hi I just got Hollister festival nite for $17.99 on Burlington not bad I really like it.
That's awesome! I tested Pegasus Exclusive a couple months ago and it's 🔥. I got the armaf clone craze. With Pegasus I would only wear indoor a/c or 1-2 sprays on a summer night. Pegasus works best with cooler temps imo. I've been looking for a mind games blockade clone, so I ordered banana republic midnight hour. I'm excited to see how close it will be to blockade. My most recent fragrances I got are ejaazi intense silver, mind games blockade sample,bharara king and axe vanilla. I allways use a good deodorant/spray to compliment my fragrances.
Ejazzi I.S. is one of the best frags I've gotten for under $15. Great twist that I think of as a bluer version of Invictus, though it isn't quite that, either.
I definitely want to start getting into the mind games frags. There are a couple that look right up my alley.
To see that gem at a Marshall’s is unheard of it’s like finding 100$ on the floor. But was worth picking up. That’s awesome got me looking what might be around at our local rack store. Thanks for the tip. Salute to you as always.
Peg ex is amazing. I had a 2ml sample and now have detour Intense and can say they are almost 1:1
Found a 4.2 jpg le male le parfum for 70$ at Ross today. Solid pickup
Crazy that was in inventory, nice find. My local Marshall's is bare, always. As is my local TJ Maxx in recent years. I get some occasional luck at Burlington's, but nothing on that level.
PdM is so insanely overpriced at full price, but great to score a big discount! I like Pegasus Exclusif a whole lot, don't really remember the OG though I've sampled it before.
Great find I got lucky this week also I found Jean Paul la male le parfume 125mil. for $69.99
WOW! My marshalls never has anything like that!!! However! Mine had Eldarado Avenue by Camara and WOW! Dude! if you see it check it out. It's 14.99 and I bet it goes home with you. Quality through the roof!
@@gerardgeorge aventus / aventus cologne clone and it's a really good one. I might even say it's the best one and not even because of the price. I am on the hunt for more bottles of it
I knew it when I saw it on camera, my Marshall’s had a bunch of Gucci Guiltys didnt have time to have them open the cabinet and check the prices. Need to go back! Great pull!
I have Gucci guilty edt and Parfum. Definitely want to get more from the line.
Amazing find at a Marshalls. I tried this at a Nordstroms during the colder months. It was very unique and very luxurious. It lasted a long time on my skin. However, I did not think I would be wearing it so spending that kind of money would be a waste. A few weeks after that, I walked into a Marshalls I found a dupe in with the Contra. I bought it. Tried wearing a few tiimes (Obviously not the same quality), and I still did not like the profile.
I agree with a best find, and with the gift cards, wow!!! It definitely pays to shop around.
I need another bottle of Pegasus because I love that scent. So yes, I spray a lot.
$200 is a bit too much for me, though.
It smells like a Minty almond smell to me. 😅 I love it!
Picked up one of those ALT Exec cologne , smells good, no longevity tho
How are those David Beckham fragrances?
also, it's not rack store, but have you ever been to a Zara store and tried their scents?
I was there for the first time a few weeks ago and picked up two bottles for right around $50. I've been pleasantly surprised with both quality and longevity.
Zara fragrances are excellent for the money. I was also curious about that David Beckham in the case
yo thats insane, idk why but the rack stores are dropping bangers recently i just got jpg le male le parfum and acqua di gio parfum in the past week.. i was so shocked lol
I picked up Alt. Exec at Marshall's, a girl at work followed me asking what I was wearing.
We don't hear enough about these Alt.s. The only one that Gerard has talk about was a cherry frag, and he said that it was a disaster.
I’d like to try more I’ve only tried one and didn’t like it all. It was a hybrid.
Good review! Who really wants to wait for 10$ savings honestly? Especially if you like the frangrances.! I personally wouldn't lol. Thanks
Not only that Vance but sometimes you have to factor in shipping costs as well.
The only thing I found at Marshall's was creed silver mountain water. But never anything else worth buying
I have Armaf Craze, and I've worn it a total of like 2 times in the past two years... Just not really for me I guess. Reminds me of Carmex lip stuff
A lot of people like that one but I can see this dna not being for everyone
What? I saw the PDM Pegasus. Does Gerard have the stones to leave it in the case? No. Jovan, Black Musk was the gangster move of the day. OMG. So predictable.
Dior hypnotic poison dupe
@@gerardgeorge girl wore hypnotic poison and I thought she was wearing Pegasus , sold my bottle because all I could imagine when wearing it that it smells like a hot girl perfume
Still not tempting enough to hit 93n to go to the north shore. Sorry, Gerard!
There's something to be said about wearing fragrances that lean femenine. You can always say you were making out/sleeping with some chick and her perfume got stuck on you.😂
That’s a cool story to tell if nothing else. 😂😂. My wife might feel some type of way about it though
Pegasus is a modernized clone of Hypnotic Poison. I'd rather wear that one. PdM does copy a lot of other scents. I've never been able to justify the price, even discounted.
I agree you can argue some of their other scents smell like popular fragrances but I don’t get the HP connection. That’s a floral feminine bomb to me I’ve smelled it a lot.
@@gerardgeorge The original HP EDT isn't very floral to me at all. Some of the flankers maybe.
You don't own any pegasus dupes?e Armaf crave,? Or craze whatever🤷🏼♂️
Seriously man, it’s annoying because no fragrance selection at any Marshalls I’ve ever been in looks anything remotely like this lol
@@gerardgeorge Heck no! Lol. You have nothing even remotely worthy of being put in a case. That’s crazy, and I’m jealous.
You have the best Marshall's on the planet. I've been to every Marshall's in the DC area and never found anything close to this. Congrats man🎉
Facts best one so far is in Bethesda
When I saw that box in the case I thought ‘this has to be staged’
Thanks brotha!
