I bought a lot of these to save on my original and NO ONE can tell the difference between them, not even me lol, thanks for this video and what you do for the fragrance community
@Alen Vidović Woody Oud is good! Performance is good as well, I get a lot of compliments and people with experienced noses think it's Tom Ford's Oud Wood, I get about 2 hrs skin projection and about 6 to 8 hrs on performance
You do a great job. I’ve been trying to find a good reviewer and I’m glad I finally found one. I’ve been collecting since 5th grade (‘98) and currently have close to 80 fragrances. Your content seems very genuine and our taste in fragrances is very similar. Thank you for these videos!
Congrats on the 100k subscriber play button. Been here with you since about 10k and my best friend knows you and says you always have been a stand up dude repping the ATL all the way
Congradulations on the milestone brother, you deserve it. Especially since you are more honest about what your nose tells you smells great and what SMELLS ALIKE. I appreciate that
Hello Darien ,how are you? Congratulations on the 100 subscriptions well deserved. I know you are not a clone guy but great job on the video and list. Stay safe brother.
THANKS FOR LOOKING OUT FOR US ON A BUDGET, fragrances can be so expensive that if I had to buy all straight up originals I would have 4 or 5 tops , thanks again
Although I haven’t smelled Charuto Tobacco Vanille, I do think Alexandria Fragrances Sweet Smoke to me is damn near 95-99% as good! It’s also an extrait de parfum. I will give the presentation to Charuto though.
Good day to you...new to your channel and 1st time subscriber. What is your take on spraying your body's hot spots as opposed to spraying the clothes you wear. I was taught to do body only and not stain the clothes I wear... looking for input and kindness in guidance...thank you and have a good day and weekend
Love your channel. Thanks for those good tips on clones. sometimes that clone smells like the real deal. but if I can afford it I'll buy the clone. how's going to notice. thanks again. have a nice day. Be Blees.
Amber musk is my jam run through the sample within days! will be getting the full bottle soon. Junoon Oud from Al Haramian if some of you guys love Tygar Bvlgari.
Great job. Not everyone can afford the prices of name brands. I rock a lot of your recommendations TT Chiron is my favorite wish there was a clone of that.
Another 13 Shades by Dua gets 90% close to Another 13 by LL. The only thing missing is that pop of fruity pear in the opening. The rest of it though is excellent on my skin. It settles down to a cozy, skin scent but better (that still projects) compliment getter. The Ext de Parfum concentration makes it linger, good sillage.
always appreciate your content, and this video was right up my alley bc of my love for middle eastern fragrances! if you could find a clone for my favorite fragrance ever, the discontinued goat (imho) hamdani from parfums de marly, i would be forever grateful!!! i already know nothing could beat it's performance, but again imho that was the magnet of all magnets lol keep up the good work brother!!!
Great 10 cologne’s. I would love to recommend 3 amazing colognes . 1- jorge di profondo by alhambra. This is cologne of Acqua di Giò Profondo Giorgio Armani 2- Jorge Di Profumo EDP Perfume By Alhambra . This is cologne of Acqua di Giò Profumo Giorgio Armani 3- No.2 Men by Alhambra . This is cologne of Carolina Herrera 212 Nyc Men edt . Longevity for the 3 is between 6h and 8h
This was a good video! Very informative. I must admit, Bowtie Guy, that you really know your shit. I have several clones because the originals can be pricey. The last one, by Armaf, is one that I do have. As you know, Creed fragrances, are very expensive. They run on an average of $400. Too rich for my blood. Thanks again. Good job and good post. Peace.
Maison Alhambra have a new one out , it’s called KISMET ANGEL. Closest one yet to Angel’s Share and far better scent wise than the Emir version or the Khamrah
Fantastic video, brother, it has been thoroughly educational, the word 'clone' doesn't surprise me at all! If you visit Dubai, you will find the word 'clone' stalking you at every corner. The entire city is a "CLONE" and clone spawns faster! Thanks again!
I really want to get this! How do you like it so far? Do you recommend? I have watched many reviews but I also like to get the communities opinion as well.
@@PuppetMa5teR I'm not a fan of the opening , the dry down is nice but I wouldn't recommend it , haven't tried the real 540 so can't compare that way. Everyone has different tastes but I personally don't feel the untold
@@arminderrattu5333 Hey I appreciate your honest feedback. Right now I think the new frags are overpriced so I will just wait it out until the price goes down and its available on more than one or two discounter sites.
Take into account that some of the fragrances need to mancerate! Spray it a few times then come back a month or so later !! I have Armaf craze based on what Bow tie rated it and I didn’t like it but then I came back like a few weeks later and it was 🔥🔥🔥 I was getting compliments 10+ hours later on it. Same thing with the Untold!! I have that as well!!
I have a few middle eastern clones in the collection. Oud for Glory and Oud for Glory Amethyst (Initio Atomic Rose) are both belters. I also have Armaf Milestone and Sillage (Silver Mountain Water clone) and these are really close to the original Creed frags. They even last longer. I've recently just finished a bottle of Charuto. Agree it's close to TF Tobacco Vanille but doesn't last that long. The sprayer on mine wasn't that great either. A great TF Ombre Leather clone is Lataffa Velvet Oud. Give this a try. Only costs about £13 for 100ml. I also have a great Amouage Interlude Man clone in Midnight Oud by Ard Al Zaafaran. Again this was £12 for 100ml. Real Beast mode frag. Lasts 12 hours + on my skin. 👍👍
Congratulations. Also try Detour Noir from Al Haramain. Good Layton clone. Especially, since I have heard they have reformulated it and that it is said to not perform as well.
My Detour Noir is '22 batch and it's great performer. Many of them forget or don't know that every frag should macerate at least 4 weeks. They tear up the box spray and cry. No,spray it or decatn 10ml to help maceration process. Week to week performance getting better. It's chemical process. Nothing special but it's how it's done.
Just purchased two LV clones of L'immesite and imagination...Jean Lowe immortal for limmesite and essence de blanc for imagination..both are supposively equal or maybe even better than the ogs...would like to get as many reviewers opinion. Also there is a new line from Emper that clones about 6 bond no.9 hits including Greenwich, Lafayette, Ny nights and even cloned the star bottle. No one has reviewed them yet.. Also I'd like to get your opinion on how close Nikos sculpture and Dunhill desire red/ blue resemble Lafayette st..both are super cheap and no one has done a real comparison..thanks
Is there a good dupe for Tom Ford F*** Fabulous? I love the scent but $400 is kinda steep. And the bottle is black so you can't even see if the bottle is full when you buy it or how much you have left as you're using it.
Preciate it my guy, but for a good BR540 clone you gotta try franck olivier pure addiction. It's one of the more under the radar well blended inexpensive clones. It has a little twist to it but for the price. It's not as scratchy as untold. I actually prefer it personally
I don’t know why all the reviewers are saying this, but Amber musk it’s not a clone of ombre nomade, it’s near 40%. Maison Alhambra jean Lowe ombre it’s 95% and is not talked about
Finally a reviewer telling the truth about Khamrah. It doesn't smell at all like Angel's Share. The presentation is obviously very similar but the scent is nothing like it. Because of your truthfulness, you just earned a new subscriber here. I'm not really into clones but I do have Khamrah and an original batch bottle of Angel's Share. I got Khamrah to compare for myself and it's not even close to smelling like Angel's Share.
@@zackjames2381 No, I have an original batch bottle of Angel's Share. I don't need any clones. Just tired of people claiming that Khamrah smells like Angel's Share when it absolutely doesn't.
@@jarridsteel6229 ok fair enough, khamrah is in the same gourmand style... but it is its own beautiful fragrance with beast performance. Kismet angel for those who are interested is the clone to angel share
@@zackjames2381 Exactly.... Khamrah is a great fragrance but it irks me that a bunch of reviewers are saying it's a clone of Angel's Share. The bottle is similar and they're similar in style but not at all in scent. If Lattafa were trying to clone Angel's Share with the release of Khamrah then they did a really terrible job.
@Jarrid Steel Lataffa's take on Angel's Share is actually Kismet Angel. I don't know why so many reviewers keep on saying Khamrah is the clone. Bandwagon effect I guess.
Club de nuit intense limited edition smells stronger and lasts longer and is a great alternative. Armaf sillage is not known as a clone of Xerjoff casamorati mefisto but it is 90% I smelled sillage and immediately told my wife that I smelled that in my collection. And she said it would be funny if it was 120.00 cheaper than mefisto… and guess what? 😢😂
13:15 Oud for Glory is a very solid clone in terms of fragrance notes and presentation, however the longevity is quite thin. Not a huge problem as one can simply reapply. I'd say you can get a good 3 hours from the clone whereas the original can go for well beyond 6.
Got decant of oud for glory last less than an hour on my skin don't know why And also with kamrah..... Too bad they smell great.... But lattafa amethyst is a beastmode on my skin So I bought a bottle.
