As a 50 year old man. My thoughts are these. Yes. The big popular ones are definitely still worthy of their thrones. I don't associate many scents with "smelling young" or smelling "man." There are a few exceptions but like. I say wear what you like. Sure certain scents will smell dated. But like when people talk "clubbing" fragrance, like i wasn't in that club smelling dudes. Even if others wear it. I don't care. I don't care of BDC is popular. It's classic. It's never going away just like Chanel No. 5. Get used to it. It will be around until you die. Plus 99% of the people are not associating fragrance with anything. So if you like Y wear it. If you like Channel it's not gonna make a difference. I wouldn't shy away from something i like because others wear it an the reality is most people wear nothing. I do think these are great suggestions of alternatives though. But no i'm not "tired" of hearing about popular scents mostly because all the fragrance youtubers tend to dislike them or are fixated on the status that comes with "niche" fragrances. For me it gives very little status. If you like it good. I say there's nothing wrong with mass appeal. I say if you like it wear it. Cause i'm honestly not really trying to impress anyone but myself and maybe my girl. Maybe.
Interesting. And what about YSL Kouros, or Drakkar Noir, Paco Rabanne Pour Homme? Arenât these fragrances considered outdated? How can a fragrance be considered an old aroma while another be regarded as a modern aroma?
I like the concept of this video actually. Pretty cool topic of discussion.
Thank you
Me too. đ
Great advice. I donât think anything is âblind buy safeâ unless you just have money to burn. Grab free local sprays, get samples. Actual experience is what actually matters.
That's right Chris!
I love YSL L'Homme so much. It's hard to articulate, but to me L'Homme is like the fragrance equivalent of this emoji: âšâšâš
What makes YSL L'Homme incredible to me is that it somehow captures everything I love about women's fragrances and gives it to me in a more unisex form that feels way more true to myself. As soon as Spring hits it's going right back in the daily rotation, can't wait.
I agree!
i agree
i also like your name love me some good cubensis strains.
its exactly that emoji haha
to me it smells like expensive champagne or apple cidar
I would love it but it smells like my mom đ€Ł
This was great, I adore gifting people I love with fragrance. You gave me some great ideas for future purchases. Thanks for the input! I would LOVE to see a version of this for women đ
Thank you Taylor! I will look into that.
Great content as always, my brother. I love the creative detours that you take, they definitely set you apart from everyone else making fragrance content.
Thank you Dave
@@stayfreshproductions My pleasure, Justin, any time.
I'm so happy you didn't offer clones or copies and just offered cool new not so known fragrances
... any fragrance is boy/dude if you pile it on and go simping for compliments. At the end of the night, it's just cologne. If you're wearing it for validation, you're a boy. If you wear it because you and the people in your life like it, man.
Iâd say instead of Bleu De Chanel try Aaron Terence Hughes Legend, Guapo, or Maverick.
Glad you put Ysl Y in boy-fresh. Hated that frag
Bleu de Chanel EDP is everything. Amazing opening, classy, versatile and universally loved by females. It's the perfect fragrance. I've never tried a Hermes, so I'll check them out!
Iâm calling it man sweet - pasha de Cartier parfum. Suitable alternative for Layton in the cooler months as well!
Just ran out of my travel spray and my bottle is coming this week. One of the best ones you put me on to, thanks!
I have like 10 tester sizes of Pasha but I didn't find it lasted long as all..what kind of performance are you getting?
@@hc8771 I get solid performance and projection. Not beast mode, but very solid. Fragrantica seems to agree. In the very beginning my wife can smell it across the room, but it settles down into a nice scent bubble.
Pasha RULES, I'm Just Sayin.đ
Fresh content as always. I enjoy that most of your alternatives arent mere note siblings like suggesting pineapple centered frag to aventus or an iris based frag for Prada Lhomme. Its interesting this way as it gives way to vibe rather than a simple note substitute. Im looking for oud bleu intense now because of this and arrakis is now a consideration as well. Thank you Justin!
Thank you Edgardo!!
I guess I have split personalities đ€Ł. Because I enjoy fragrances from all of these categories. Great topic J
As always you make some high quality content Justin. This content I haven't seen before in the way you created it and I like it a lot. I'm sure some viewers will disagree with your choices and especialy in which category you placed them, but that's everybody's own opinion. You explain the why in a verry well-founded way.
Thank you Berend!
Excellent idea for fragrance topic. Would be cool to do a series of this!
Thank you!
This is the only quality fragrance channel that I watch, I donât watch no other lol I graduated from watching Jeremy fragrance that made me buy bunch of colognes I didnât like but was overhyped no disrespect to him to watching j.c fragrance to really learning what quality fragrance is and not just for compliments smh đ€Šââïž and am watching to get recommendations for buying a good quality for my dad
I appreciate you Mohammed, thank you
This was fun! Thank you for including Desirtoxic! Its a hidden gem
I watched your video with great interest. Iâm in the man stage of my life and I love Dior Homme 2020. To me it smells very modern and classy. A younger man can definitely use this fragrance to be taken more seriously. Great video, Iâm a new fan!
Thanks Raul!
These types of videos are a great breath of fresh air. Keep 'em coming Justin! Good stuff đđ»
Thank you!
Progression for sure in selection similar to presenting myself to the world as a grown man. Fragrances and style evolve. Interesting and thought provoking .Like these concept of videos .Agree with selections for discussion.
I sat on Dior Homme 2020 for a while but I finally pulled the trigger and got my hands on it. I'll make it short and simple.... this stuff is absolutely amazing!! I can see this becoming my signature scent and I am looking to see if they have a 5.0 oz bottle as a back-up bottle. Another great video, JC!!
Try the new dior homme sport. Itâs even better
@@bienvenu9582 facts. Canât go wrong with either. Iâd say get both.
@@bienvenu9582 That is next on my list and once Fragbuy has it in stock, I'll be definitely buying a bottle.
Thank you! Glad you dig it!
2020 a great sleeper because the community turned up their nose at the name. I've worn it twice and got compliments both times. Sparking open with a nice cedar woody dry down. I personally think DH sport would be redundant maybe try the cologne.
Nice video! Great choices. I am a lover of everything Chanel! Chanel is for the perfume connoisseur! Chanel is not for the lover of novelty perfumery. Chanel screams world class! N05 and Coromandel omg LOVE!
@stayfreshproductions I agree on just about everything you stated except the Y . It depends on the Y version you're referring to. If its the original 2017 version then I concur,but if its the newer 2022 version I disagree. The newer version is addition by subtraction. In the reformulation they got rid of the lemon and the mint on the top, they kept Adelhydes, begamot, and ginger. The green apple , pineapple, and violet leaf were removed in the middle notes. Replaced by lavender clary sage they kept the geranium. The base is where it really stands apart from the original. They got rid of the musk, balsam fir, vetiver, and incense. The original had ambergis and cedar in the base as well, but they added vanilla and olbanum which makes the drydown quite remarkable.
kajal homme ii is my signature scent. i dont make a lot of money (i only have two niche full bottles, both kajal) so i dont wear it that much more than my other stuff, but i can guarantee that nobody around me is wearing it. thats why i love it, apart from the profile itself.
ADG Profumo is classy and understated. One of the frags I bring on holiday to Italy.
Great video đđ
Great video. You put to words the reason why I gravitate away from certain fragrances. Having passed through stages of growth certain fragrances in my collection arenât that appealing anymore.
Well said! Thank you đđŸ
I read a few of the 74 comments at the time Iâm writing this. I agree with most of the ones that are insightful. We need more series of videos like this one. In my opinion this is extraordinary content.
Thank you đđŸ
Very interesting and not something I've previously realised until you just pointed it out. I have a large collection by now and for man fragrances, I'd certainly recommend anyone to explore the Penhaligons and Boadicea the victorious ranges.
No blind buy 2023!!
Loved this content as well as how it's presented. You nailed it! I relate to the classification you made. As a man in my late 50's, it explains why i disliked the like of Dior Sauvage, Cedrat Boisé, Versace Eros (not to sound condescending) and prefer more mature scents like Desir Toxic. A lot of knowledge behind this work - I personally would like to see more videos like this one (not to mention the well crafted sentences!)
So glad you enjoyed it, Mohamed! Will definitely consider doing more like it.
Kajal II is heavy in my rotation. Fresh fruit and fresh. Candied almost. Itâs blind buy worthy!
Great content. I like fragrance from both ends of spectrum. I love Hugo Boss Man which I think is a more mature scent however I also love Diesel Sound of the Brave which is more youth balanced. I'm 56 so I wear what I want, lol.
Great video, Justin. I really dig your philosophy in regards to the fragrance community and you are making folks think. I think more people need that.
Thank you Sean!
amazing insight. Requesting same format for other fragrance categories... for Summer, versatile,office, date night. OR do you already have videos like this? If so please reply with video titles
Iâm 20 seconds in and loving it đȘđŸ. Much needed video
Thank you!
Great video and concept. Thank you. Well, Iâm supposed to be a man at the age of 55. đ And I like Layton. Not wearing it so often, thatâs why I just have a big decant. But I really love DesirToxic. Thatâs why I have a small bottle. I always try to get the smaller bottles, because I have so many fragrances⊠đ All the best, from Europe.
Loved the video Justin... but you cut me deep when you put cedrat boise in the dude category lol I smelled it for the first time after spraying my sweater down with TF Oud Wood at a Sephora because I'm cheap. And smelling them side by side later that day, they give off a different smell but a similar vibe. To describe what I mean; I think of Oud Wood as James Bond's signature, and I feel like James Bond would wear cedrat boise in the summer. Haha It's a beautiful woody, leathery scent to my nose and I agree with you the dry down is where it shines.
Layton is SO hyped around the fragrance community and I donât understand why it smells women perfume
Yes I agree. I recently bought a travel size sample of it and I was kind of disappointed TBH. The interesting thing was that myself and all the other guys who smelled it didn't seem to care for it at all while my sister's and mother and twin daughters all loved the stuff. They can have it as far as I am concerned
Dior Homme 2020 is a solid musky, masculine fragrance. Ideal for office and all year. Super versatile! I love all the Homme line is just a masterpiece from Dior, along with Fahrenheit ones. Love Layton but an upgrade to that one... Carlisle with an astonishing dry-down.
Great video, your recommendations are on point. Instead of Mancera cedrat boise try kajal homme II đłđłđ€. Keep up the good work mate .
Co-sign on Oud Bleu Intense. There is little oud there and is really fresh. It's pricey but I will be purchasing a full bottle.
I love the concept! Will be including a few of these in my next sample batch order.
Great video as for me a man scent is Creed Royal Oud. Plus it's my favorite fragrance out of all the fragrances I own
Gucci guilty edp is the only gucci guilty that had caught my attention, it is so damn good and easy to wear without being too too basic, i need a bottle of it
Once you said: no more Aventus on my Channel!
But let's be honest - loved or hate it, despite numerous controversies regarding batch variations, it still smells awesome. It can't be denied that Creed managed to do something unusual - they had made a niche fragrance which became a mainstream bestseller. That was a significant achievement. But that wouldn't be possible if the scent itself wasn't great.
What do you think about mixing different batches?
i really enjoyed this vid, i agree with all the alternatives u provided. I recently bought desirtoxic i cant see anyone not liking it its really good.
Thank you!
Too late. I own Cedrat Boise already and I love the leather in the dry down. Absolutely phenomenal
I agree 100%âŠ.
GG EDP is a very solid fragranceâŠ
You are right, you do have to give it a couple wearings to fully appreciate what it does.
The rose, salt, balsamic accordsâŠ. You get them all when you give it a chance to develop and let the fragrance do what it supposed to doâŠ
It obviously is still sweet and mass appealing as stated.. but it does things just a little differentl and I really like it.
Definitely something that can give you just a touch of something unique when wearing a fan favorite/ mass appealing scentâŠ
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
Amazing selection Justin, and I love the video format you adopted to present these fragrances alternative.
Thank you Liz!
Love YSL LâHomme just wish it lasted longer
An ex girl gifted me Gucci pour Homme EDP and I remember not liking it that much, I wore it and omg it was good as hell. Always listen to what girls like on a guy
i took a break from fragrance life to downsize, and re evaluate, but im so glad to be interested again and your content is still the best.
im still hoping for a video on fragrances for fast paced workplaces like bartenders or waiters!
Welcome back! Thank you!
Always dig the scents and recommendations but the vibe and tone for these new videos đ„đ„đ„
Appreciate that
Aqua Di Gio Profumo đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„đ„
It's my signature scent. All rounder this stuff
The only channel to learn âcologneâ. The only Chanel that hardly does âTop 10 this , Top 10 that â
Thank you Edmund
I know how you feel about performance, I get it. YSL Lâhomme has been my signature fragrance for 3 years and I love it! However, as Iâve gotten into niche brands, I enjoy getting whiffs of the scent throughout the day. This doesnât give me that, sad. Any recs? Iâve. Begun to transition to Herod as my signature scent (27, work in an office)
I've got too many recs for that! Check out any of my recent videos on niche fragrances and you should find something you enjoy!
DesirToxic is a tad bit polarizing, yet completely blind buy safe somehow. Amazing scent! â€
Excellent content. Mr. Burberry is a very under rated scent. Thanks for the suggestions. Kajal Homme II i have been interested in for a while. Look forward to the next one.
Thank you!
I wear cologne for myself since I will be smelling it more than anyone else.
The timbre of your voice has always been working to your advantage. I'm sure you've thought about it, and have been updating your mics over the years. However, I've noticed that you also think more about how you use light in your videos these days. It does make the videos easy on the eye :)
Thank you!
Great video. I got bored with Aventus, so I don't wear it any more. Blue de Chanel is nice but a bit too basic. I happen to be wearing Acqua Di Gio Perfumo today! I think it is the best GA. It is still available here in Dubai. Y is boring, Mr. Burbery is much nicer. A good fresh scent is Versace por homme, I did use oodles of it in the past that is why I don't use it now. Prada is a bit too feminine to me so is YSL L'homme. Arakis sounds interesting, not sure we have the brand here. Cedrat Boise is over hyped and just ok, it just didn't move me much.
Thank you Maan!
High value women are after men not boys, not dudes. Such an important message in this video.
I enjoyed this. But, no diptyques? I love vetyverio edp. have you tried it? I find it relaxing, mature, but use it sparingly since itâs pretty potent. I layer it with light scents too, esp. those that already have vetiver in them. gives the fragrance âdepthâ đ
I have several from Diptyque and I enjoy them. They just arenât in this video.
All this fragrance talk is great BUT whereâd you get that houndstooth shirt? đ looks great. I appreciate clothing as well.
Thanks Danny! Picked it up at Nordstrom Rack a couple years back.
Great Video Brother, I appreciate that one. đ€đŸđșđČđȘđŸ
I'm a man, so I bailed before hearing your opinion.
Lol. You wouldn't have even clicked on the video in that case.
@@stayfreshproductions . I'm a man. So I don't agree with that opinion.
@@rav8648 youâre taking it too far, Rav.
@@stayfreshproductions I thought you will say I am already following what you said by not following what you said. đ
This is by far one of the best fragrance vids I've seen. This is the type of video I've been searching for!
Thank you!
I love how they're inspired by famous frags
i LOVE Mr Burberry EDT MFK was the perfumer. its fresh and awesome! :)
refreshing content Justin.
itâs always good to see other content besides top 10âs.
Thank you!
I feel this.
Damn just picked up Layton on the Jomashop discount recently. Iâm late to the party. đ
I have to credit you. Lunar vetiver is amazing. Currently moving into my signature spot. Thank again.
If you dig Layton, wear it!!
I got Layton in 10ml cuz I really like it but Iâm inexperienced in the niche range and I know I could easily get bored of it as Iâm trying out a bunch of other stuff
Well i keep saying this, but no one is making review, can you please do it - Naomi Godsir - Or Du Serail, or as i like to say, a fragrance above all others. I really wanna see your honest opinion.
My nex buy will be a vintage 2012 bottle of YSL L'homme. Guess it can replace the Dior Homme Sport as my daily safe scent. It felt like a solid fragrance to me with good quality and far from that synthetic scent as Y.
Let me ask you: have you tried Dior Homme Eau For Men yet? It has been discontinued, but I think it's the best in the Dior Homme line.
I have tried Eau, itâs great.
What would you consider PDM sedley and greenly?
What would you consider it for yourself?
I haven't smelled Desirtoxic but Genre Parfums has a clone of it called Toxicity that smells extra sexy for anyone that can't get or doesn't want to pay for the original. I see dark purple when I smell it if that makes sense.
DesirToxic is so sexy
Fragrance is an extension of your personality. I like this concept
Thank you
When I see three of my fragrances in the man tier, even though I am only in my early 20's. Peak testosterone.
I feel like if I would show @Justin my collection he would easily give me 5 fragrances to try that I would definetely love
đ good stuff!
Im a 17 yo guy,im going daily to the gym,eating heatly,haveing my goals everything on balance,now lets talk about the parfumes,i always liked since i was a kid masculine fragrances like (Kouros,Fanreheit),i realy love barbershop,woody,earthy,smoky fragences,and i was wondering if you could give me some special fragrnaces
Many of my videos contain fragrances just like this. Scroll back a few videos on my channel and you will see a barbershop video.
The H24 EDT is obsolete now that the EDP is out. The latter is way better, it has depth & performance which the EDT is missing both.
A much more sophisticated fragrance! Also the new Y EDT blows the old one out of the water. I cant stand the sweet EDP so I wear the new EDT as my Nr. 1 freshy and got crazy compliments when I had it new. The Mr. Burberry is way underrated though, the Indigo flanker is also pretty good. But where are the deep resinous fragrances? Stuff like Jazz Club or Noir Ambre by Issey Miyake? I thought this type of cold weather scents were missing completely and in my opinion thats where the real manly gems are. But to each his own :)
the boy - dude - guy - man evolution is really an intriguing way to match the perfumes.
Thank you
Nice to see some alternatives to some pretty basic things. Gives a little diversification.
Thank you Sarah
Love the categories! And the different perspective.
Thank you!
One of your best videos Justin, loved it ! Good luck to getting 100k this year đđ
Fingers crossed! Thank you đđŸ
As a boy gotta say i prefer man fragrances in this list lol
Lol!
I wish I had seen this video before I bought some of these.
Hi Justin. I'm looking for a fragrance with ginger note and I want the ginger note stays to the end. Can you recommend me a fragrance please?
Demeter Fresh Ginger
Jo Malone Nutmeg and Ginger
A lot of your recommendations are hard to find samples. This format is good, you can get an idea, should be like that, like, all the time
Thank you
Another great topic. One of the best reviewers on this platform..âđ».
I definitely like the breakdown. I could've swore Amouage Reflection Man was coming for Prada L'homme. Both are my work drivers. However would you compare Vetiver to Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver and Roja's Vetiver offering?
Thanks Darryl. I would compare Vetiver more to Terre d'Hermes. I think I mentioned that.
@@stayfreshproductions yes you did. I already own Terre dâHermes so was looking to either purchase the Tom Ford or Rojaâs. So I thought this might have been a 3rd contender.
Really great content lately, Justin. You're the best.
Thank you Carol!
I agree đŻ. There are infant fragrances, then adult fragrances.
Hey Justin, love the breakdown ....this is really good
Thank you Latonya
In other words thereâs levels to this ish
Loving this ! This was super informative. Thank you!
Thanks Luis!
I absolutely love this content.
So glad you like Guilty edp! I love it, itâs unique. It smells like a sexy salad đ
Hey Justin! Do you still wear Narciso Rodriguez Bleu Noir EDP? Just got it and it smells amazing!
I love it!
Justin, I really enjoyed this video. Interesting topic. đ
Thank you đđŸ
