Hi guys, since uploading this video it has come to my attention that there are some glitches. It seems there were some problems when rendering the file for export. I can only apologise for the glitches and hope that you can still find some enjoyment in the video.

@lashondaallen5530 10 месяцев назад

I have seen all the glitches and I have to say: it is annoying, amateurish and my disappointment is immeasurable. My day is ruined. My life is ruined. I blame you for it! Have a good day, Sir!

@golfbuddy1969 10 месяцев назад

The biggest mistake that I have made as a new collector is that I purchased way too many at first, and way too many cheapies. As your nose develops, and budget allows, you’ll end up acquiring better quality and being more discerning.

@golfbuddy1969 10 месяцев назад

@@RickMGPinto but I think that’s because it is constantly encouraged by influencers that we hold in pretty high regard. They’re making money, while people are stuffing their shelves with stuff they’ll never wear if they mature in this hobby.

@SomethingThatSCREAMS 10 месяцев назад

Same here. A lot of the ones I bought in the first year or two, I wouldn't replace if they ran out. I dont buy the outrageously priced cologne's, but I am now looking much more for quality over quantity.

Yes we think why would I get the real thing if I could have a clone that's just as good then it ends up not being

@rumenstiliyanow4769 10 месяцев назад

It is so funny to watch Aarons face and reactions while smelling the cheapies 😂 he clearly hates each one of them but is still being polite and keeping it unoffensive. It's clear that he is very experienced when it comes to fragrances and has a very well-trained nose. The way he picks up on all the ingredients on a blind-smell in your other videos is just mind blowing, well done!

@TheFakieEdits 10 месяцев назад

Totally agree with Aaron on dupes taking a cut on designers income. But at the same time you can argue that for those who have got lazy with quality and performance, dupes can give them a reason to get themselves sorted out and hopefully start producing more quality fragrances again instead of ripping people off for bad experiences.

@athleticguy15 10 месяцев назад

The dupes or clones have only become popular because of the outrageous prices some of the designer fragrances cost. Thank heaven for discount fragrance sites.

@pobstrel 9 месяцев назад

Agree. Especially Tom Ford fragrances, where the prices have gone up but the quality and longevity isn't as good as they used to be.

@persephonesdad5792 9 месяцев назад

I hear you…..BUT…. NO ONE, NO WHERE is even attempting to clone any ATH fragrance….and do you know why??? Because he puts together QUALITY and doesn’t charge our eyeballs out. If the big boys with the deep pockets and wholesale prices weren’t trying to squeeze a dime out of a nickel (or 110 pence out of a quid) and gave us more for our money. clones couldn’t take from them as much.

@thefreestylefrEaK 9 месяцев назад

"Dupes" replicate the originals. Many "dupe" companies do a very good job of mimicking the legit product these days. For many of us who like a certain "dupe" we'll actually go out and buy the original. So it works both ways. Most people don't have a few hundred bucks to buy 1 designer or niche fragrance, but imagine spending that kind of money on a blind buy of the original and not liking it?

@hc8771 4 месяца назад

The steady inflating prices of fragrances and reduction in quality have been their own demise.

@dudleyhamby2029 9 месяцев назад

Because some of us out here are not so wealthy and that's why we can't afford a $200-$400 bottle of fragrance and have to go to clones. And some of the clones out there can give a lot of designers fragrances a run for their money. Anyway thank you for making the video and can't wait to see more. Be well my friend.

@dizzy4303 8 месяцев назад

ATH is a perfume chemist so he can instantly recognise the compounds and chemicals. So he can kinda predict accurately if those chemicals will last or not. The clone issue is that they never last. Its actually kinda amazing that they can really pull off the scent, problem is it lasts 15min. Most reviewers/fragrance experts actually dont hate on clones, but there are only a few clone houses that can make the scent AND make it last

@dudleyhamby2029 8 месяцев назад

@@dizzy4303 My friend I have several clones that last 8+hours some even longer than that. It's INSANE to ask $300 to $400 for a fragrance when the majority of hard working people can not afford such luxuries. Real people have children,bills and food to pay for. Not everyone is money wealthy. I will stick to my clones rather than making some hody tody perfumer more wealthy. Be well and have a beautiful day.

@Mojo8 10 месяцев назад

I agree with Aaron on dupes I only get the out of reach ones .. I think Diaghilev by Roja Dove is AMAZING but I cannot spend $1,000 on a fragrances, but Alexandria makes a version that is spot on at 97%, bought a $10.00 sample of the real deal and compared the 2 and longevity was the only issue but at $69.00 a bottle I can reapply multiple times a day. I am trying Great Britain next. Thanks for an interesting but way to long video ..LOL. Cheers Mate 😎

@persephonesdad5792 9 месяцев назад

I am so surprised more people don’t think EXACTLY like this. I have a per bottle limit I’m just not willing to exceed . I remember my first clone purchase.. The 2mL original cost more than the 100mL clone. For my BEGINNER nose they were identical. Now. (2yrs later) I absolutely detect many differences other than the obvious (projection & longevity) and still the clone is a great stand alone fragrance, but the original offers so much more.

@Mojo8 9 месяцев назад

@@persephonesdad5792 I agree 100%, I can afford the mid to high fragrances but not at the rate I liken to purchase fragrances . Like Black tier from Roja would be almost 1- 2 months of multiple purchases of quality niche or designer but mainly niche. I have a clone of black tier God only knows how the original smells, I would be in heaven.. LOL. Cheers 😎

I don't know if you have anything like a TJ Maxx out where you are (I'm betting you do), but here in the U.S., but TJ Maxx is a "rack store" that has a lot of fragrances marked down in price, plus they also carry a lot of clone brands (like Camara and Milestone) that I have found to be of surprisingly good quality. I would be very curious to see what Aaron thinks of these niche clones that have been increasing in the rack stores over here. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to more content!

On the dupes, it's not taking money away. If someone can recreate 80-90% of what you do for 10 times less, then where really is the magic and how much are really the profit margins? Don't want to get duped - charge less or be harder to dupe. There are countless counterfits of Nikes and others out there, they aren't taking money away from those who can't afford them. Most people buying dupes would have never bought the original in the first place. Especially with most being reformulated and watered down over the years.

@_DanielPrieto 8 месяцев назад

38:14 nice opinion here. There's a fine line between inspirations and taking money away from the original author. That's why I'm against counterfeit fragrances, which exists because many people want to have even the same bottle and pay less. I just buy inspirations with generic bottles, but never thinking they are equal to the original, they are just a cheaper approach. Inspirations almost always are simpler, narrower, like listening a mono record.
