    Prada LHI shat upon by Sam and ATH, both slating it for too simple and too expensive. Omar nails it 10/10.
    AHEE is also 10/10.

    • @apollo5261
      @apollo5261 Před měsícem +2

      That's not true. ATH said he loves how Prada L'Homme Intense smells, but thought it was too safe and a bit too expensive for what it is. And he gave it a 7/10 because of those 2 points. Aaron always appreciates perfumery, even if it's not his cup of tea (i.e. Prada LHI).

  • @bearbearingston7696
    @bearbearingston7696 Před 9 měsíci

    Love the idea as always, interesting how Sam seems to be a kind of "outsider" perfumer because he doesn't really adhere with the traditional style of mainstream perfumery as he respects but doesn't really go with the 60's powders, the 80's powerbombs or the 00's freshies. That means his work must be distinctively unique, will check his vids too

  • @lgeiger
    @lgeiger Před 9 měsíci +1

    I love Tony Iommi. I think it's not super versatile though, because it's projecting a lot and is quite boozy, leathery and sweet. It's definitely a night time scent you can even wear to the club. I think it's also very cozy and addictive.
