    Hey Ash, friends here.

  • @patrickkerr9798
    @patrickkerr9798 Před 3 lety +70

    I personally love Valentino born in Roma and get great performance with it , I also don't think it smells anything like Invictus

    • @Kings42O
      @Kings42O Před 2 lety +2

      they're both unique but also share a lot of similarities

    • @reelrocknrolla4251
      @reelrocknrolla4251 Před rokem +1

      I'm missing something because Born in Roma smelled like cheap cologne when it dried an hour later when I tested it

    • @cmann517
      @cmann517 Před rokem +1

      Born in Roma is unique because it smells like bubble gum but fresh. And it's long-lasting and projects. It's in my top 20 scents rights now, over invictus.

    • @Carlitosway2369
      @Carlitosway2369 Před rokem +1

      You took the words out of my thoughts! I don’t think it smells like Invictus either. It’s a really nice scent. I don’t know what’s not to like about it

    Light Blue is an office favorite for me. I got a rash when I was sampling the intense version in Sephora. First time that ever happened to me and I have a 100 plus collection.

  • @juano6768

  • @szonyibali
    @szonyibali Před 3 lety +2

    Hey Ash, I suggest that you try Zadig & Voltaire This is Him. I am curious about your opinion on that one.

  • @DWdawgable
    @DWdawgable Před 3 lety +2

    I'm a big fan of Eau Sauvage, I love my vintage 90s bottle... But I'd thought about also getting Armani EPH to have another option in that vein. Thanks for your thoughts on this, I'll probably forgo spending Armani price for something that won't scratch that itch as well as Dior does.

  • @jonmitchell6546
    @jonmitchell6546 Před 3 lety +1

    Drakkar noir is great! Been in my collection for 25 years and always will be!

  • @mishamishin5239
    @mishamishin5239 Před 3 lety +20

    I prefer original light blue, intense is too synthetic to me...

    • @patrickstar7693
      @patrickstar7693 Před 3 lety +1

      I think they are different enough to be worth owning both. Additionally i smell Eau Intense much more often so I don't think the OG is overused, probably the opposite way round.

    • @aaronjefferson6809

    Gents! Can you do a short review on proper storage? Where do you keep your bottles, do you keep in enclosed display cases? Will proper storage prevent discoloration of the juice? Anything related to your bottles and storage.

    On Cartier Declaration. I used the aftershave in 2013. I could smell tge aftershave on my face and hand all day. The best performing aftershave I know off. This Summer I finished my EDT.

  • @MrPunkdrunk78
    @MrPunkdrunk78 Před 3 lety +1

    Funny enough that I was thinking about my collection, and Drakkar Noir would definitely make my top 5 solely on my nostalgic attachment to it.

  • @triniflyer8685

  • @HurricaneTBag
    @HurricaneTBag Před 3 lety +1

    For whatever reason the regular light blue just hits my nose a bit better. Idk why but the salty marine in eau intense is a bit too strong. I can do MI, Invictus Aqua in small doses, AdG, but can’t do Eau Intense and AdG Profondo is a bit much at times.

    • @09198384558
      @09198384558 Před 3 lety

      Yep same here as well though not a big fan of Light Blues anyway

  • @dunjel5616
    @dunjel5616 Před 3 lety +3

    Born in Roma has vetiver and woody notes. Of course it's kind of sweet and fruity (like Invictus), but you won't find that Invictus-like aquatic character in here. To me, Born in Roma feels more cozy, warmer, alluring and less synthetic than Invictus does.

      Yes, grab uomo intense if u like iris. It’s whole breakdown is a plush dry down of subtle iris, smells great, but doesn’t really change until the bottom notes which leave a great soft scent hours later

  • @alexanderrobertking
    @alexanderrobertking Před 3 lety

    V&R Spicebomb, Bvlgari Man in Black. Not exactly the same, but similar enough and used for the same purpose that they're effectively redundant. Slightly better performance out of Spicebomb.

    • @Etorweezy
      @Etorweezy Před 3 lety +1

      Givenchy Gentleman Only as well

  • @alexisovalle208
    @alexisovalle208 Před 3 lety

    I don't think Azzaro Wanted by night is similar at all to Valentino b in Rome. Azzaro w b n is extremely superior fragrance in comparison to Invictus too. Thanks for your presentation!

  • @fragtastic_voyage
    @fragtastic_voyage Před 3 lety

    I have allure homme sport eau extreme but want allure edition Blanche, would edition blanche be redundant or do they smell/perform different enough to where I should own both?

    • @picanha694
      @picanha694 Před 3 lety +2

      They are so different. You should get it. Eau extreme is a tonka citrus bomb. The edition blanche smells like lemon and its more fresh.

  • @Orochi_001
    @Orochi_001 Před 3 lety

    I also do t think you need to own Eau Sauvage and Rochas Moustache 1949. Same perfumer, same classification but less notes with Moustache, and with 3-4 times the performance of ES.

  • @louiscaeiroramos8051
    @louiscaeiroramos8051 Před 3 lety

    Armani has orange, were eau sauvage is sour citrus heavy. Not the same for me. Eau Sauvage performs better on me. Lasts longer for sure. Armani is to tame.

  • @cjack202003
    @cjack202003 Před 2 lety +1

    This is compared to Invictus, like anything with a pineapple note is compared to Aventus. Who cares. if you like it, wear it. Who cares what other dudes think. All that matters is if you like it and women like it. You're not wearing it for other dudes....or maybe you are.

    Any one who likes Cartier Declaration,Needs to look into a niche house called Krigler. They have a scent called America One 31. The 31 is the year it came out. I have never smelled the Declaration but I own a decant of America one.Beautiful scent and I read that not only did JFK wear it,bit they say declaration is pretty much a clone of the Krigler,but the Krigler is better quality and has better performance. I wish Ash would review some of their fragrances
