In this video I expose the4 TRUTH about the brand new Hype train Club De Nuit Milestone. Does it even hold a CANDLE to Creed's Millesime Imperial? Find out today! My Instagram: @thefragranceapprentice
Let’s get one thing straight!! I would watch, like, share, comment, download, upload any clickbait Chat Roulette videos at half speed without skipping ads as long as you never review Creed Millillillillisime Imperial!!
I dont agree George... Creed are putting themselves out of business by pricing themselves completely out of the market by asking for exuberant money for completely average performing scents... and that is exactly why C.D.N.I.M has been such a success and creed are now finding themselves in trouble.
@@itskyyuuuu maybe not right now but they're so arrogant that they're shooting themselves in the foot and in a few years they'll realise no one wants to buy from them anymore because they're not innovating and are pricing everyone out of their products
You are utterly entertaining! I remember when you did that collab a while back with a bunch of the Frag community and you were brilliant. Thank you for putting a little joy and levity into my life. Peace be with you and yours.
Just received my bottle of Milestone.This is insane. I mean it is really a stronger, more powerful version of currently available MI. The salty, oceanic part as you mentioned is 100% there. This scent is very natural smelling, doesn't come across synthetic at all. Creed must wake up before it gets too late. I want Armaf to do a perfect clone of Tom Ford Oud Wood.
@@DTJ2024the difference in quality between the two fragrances is noticeable when compared side by side but every year creed lowers their quality and increased their price. Milestone is about 90% similar to creed but doesn’t price gouge the customer. Paying a few hundred dollars for a creed fragrance which goes down in quality every year is not worth it vs buying a dupe.
Started my fragrance journey few months back, I’ve a nice collection so far. I just keep watching reviews of fragrances all the time. Whenever I’ve time I’m on RU-vid watching videos about Fragnances. I must say you’re a best reviewer so far mate. Love watching your videos ❤️
Really enjoyed this video! Great and honest review. I'll declare my hand, I am no subscriber to Creed hype, never have been - and I've been collecting fragrances for many years. I've always thought them over-priced; their inconsistency of batches irritates the hell out of me when so many other perfume houses manage to get it right and at a lower cost. Like you, I have some sacred cow fragrances, but if someone else produced a fragrance so close as made no difference, like you, I would be honest about it - but I also know how tough it would be to admit it! This is the first of your videos I've watched, I am now sufficiently intrigued to watch more. Thank-you and well done sir.
I‘m really new to this fragrance hobby and I appreciate your attitude with telling us to support to creators but on the other hand you are genuine enough to tell us that there is a fragrance out there that is almost like your favorite. You don’t bullshit your viewers and that’s what I like about you! :)
New to the game, but found you through Chris and Aaron- just love your work and humor and passion. Inspiring, funny, and intimate/vulnerable. Awesome :) Thx
George, great vid. Some really wise words when it comes to clones and I agree with your comments. Whilst it’s not the cheapest hobby in the world, where possible we should try to support the original fragrances for the sake of keeping brand(s) alive. This especially applies to the likes of perfumers like Creed as they tend to focus more on perfume-making rather than marketing. Creed rarely advertise, don’t do celebrity endorsements and keep their distribution channels extremely limited; so pride themselves on their quality and rely on word of mouth etc. As Erwin Creed once said ‘the quality speaks for itself and thats what keeps our clients loyal’.
You are hands down the GOAT. The quality and production value of your videos is second to none. Thank you for making such incredible content for the fragcom. You are a treasure.
When you bought Unforgivable because you liked its smell and then hear about Milestone, you'll buy it without much hesitation because Unforgivables perfomance is just so terrible.
I watched the review you made for club de nuit sillage and brought me to this one. I have to say that you are the best at giving your honest opinions and it has been super fun and enjoying watching your videos. some frag reviewers are just making me sick to watch. Please keep going!
Your thumbnails are so funny! Honestly, that face expression:))) Just wanted to say that (these perfumes doesn't interest me at all but I am quite shocked that Creed is your FAV perfume WOW!)
I have recently bought Milestone. Very very good quality, very 90s, yummy salted melon/fruit. Not monster longevity, but acceptable. All in all, a pleasure to wear. Leaves very oily residue at the point of application. Proper test to come in summer time :) Love the dramaticality of your review, very involved, grabs my heart. Cheers!
We're deep into fall, but today the weather is warm so I decided to try my sample decant of Millesime Imperial. I LOVE IT. Versace pour Homme and D&G Light Blue eau Intense have been favorites of mine (I even had a spray of Versace on at the gym), but this blows VpH away. The price for a bottle of Creed is quite extravagant, so I'm very happy to find that you like this bottle of Milestone which costs 1/10th the price.
Thank you for such an honest review. Thank you for being honest about Parfum vintage. Thank you for telling it like it is. Subscribed, liked and commented. Will continue to watch
I've had my hand on the trigger with this one for some time now but after hearing you and Ashes reviews on it I couldn't resist going ahead and making the purchase. Thanks for the review mate.
Thanks for the video, loved the intro, got me to say......"hey maybe this guy knows a little something about the golden creed bottle fragrance" all in all liked your style of content.
Brilliant and candid review, I love your delivery and style. After watching this I ordered a bottle of Milestone 2020 Batch. My first thought was that it smelt so much like Silver Mountain Water, it took a while for its notes to hit. It projects well. - New subscriber
A genuine thank you for this review. I own a 2012 bottle of MI and I am afraid to finish it off. I have owned a 2016 batch which I kept a decant of, my favorite batch by far. I would much rather buy a new bottle from Creed, but with the recent reformulations, I’m going to give Milestone a try.
I love your channel and reviews. Clones do serve a purpose/market. People don't just buy clones,it's mostly coz they are prized out of the original stuff. I live in Nairobi and i love my frags,but when you add shipping costs,import taxes +VAT these original frags are like twice what you guys buy in the UK/US, so i look out for UAE houses which are easily,readily available here. Once we both step out,you cant tell who's who
I have both. And I regret paying $450 for a bottle of cologne that smells 95% like a 60 bottle of Milestone. Unless some one asks you to see the bottle they have no idea it is not Creed.
too bad im not into this stuff as much anymore.. You would be one of if not my favorite channel.. the rare times i watch a fragrance video and stumble onto one of yours, I always find it extremely interesting, or funny, or just a video that grabs my full attention. I think you're gifted .
MI is also my favorite(and I actually am one of the lucky ones who get great longevity with it) but Milestone is if not outright replacing MI, supplementing my last 3 bottles of MI(2016)to make them last longer. My mom who smelled me one day was amazed by the smell and insisted I get her a bottle(she has never had that reaction funny enough even around MI) so I got her 2! She said it smelled like watermelons and I laughed, it’s now her favorite fragrance, it even dethroned Tommy Girl and that was her fragrance love! I find Milestone is a super close clone of MI but the watermelon part(which I never made out as an actual watermelon smell, more of a freshly cut rose stems) does lean closer to a watermelon smell to me. So in a way, it actually may be more appealing to many. Honestly like George, I don’t want to say what I’m about to say but I’m going to say it. Milestone is awesome and There is no way I will buy another bottle of MI with this good of a replacement(I’m not even gonna call it a clone). This is an easy 10/10, everything from the price to the smell and to my critical nose, the quality(if you have smelled cdnim and did not like it, this is a different situation) impressed me to the point where I personally am replacing MI with this and I am MI’s 2nd biggest fan! If you love MI try it, no hype here, this just replaced my favorite fragrance which kinda makes me feel uneasy and dirty and kind of like I am abandoning a close friend. “Sad but true”(in my greatest James Hetfield voice). Supporting artists is one thing, supporting a for profit company who sold to another company just for the sake of burning money is not wise. This is that good of a clone that in my opinion and to my nose, I would suggest your wasting money...I can’t believe Im saying this, that’s how good this is. I’m sad but being realistic I’m happy I have this for $38 bucks a bottle...unreal, this is the greatest fragrance hack in the universe and the greatest fragrance bargain I think there is. If it’s not a 1/1 clone, it’s 10% more watermelonly with the exact same framework around it with the ozonic airy sea salt. I think Armaf just screwed up George’s last review, which I am also sad about. This fragrance is depressing and joyous at the same time, balancing both equally just like the sea salt ozonic watermelon/freshly cut rose stems accord that made MI the greatest do it all fragrance of all time. I can’t believe I’m talking about an Armaf this way...I can’t believe it.
Kudos to you bro. For that Life saving (lol) review. MI was my signature but performance was meh... But milestone as per u is more than the replacement and kills MI cold blooded.
Never try CMI or Milestone before, but based on reviews, specialy yours, got my Milestone two weeks ago. Just love it. Blind bought it ACDNI too, got me second bottle. Next on list is Explorer. Since came out, love it.
💯💯💯 I HAVE NEVER ONCE REVIEWED A RU-vid VIDEO B4, BUT HONESTLY JUST LISTENING TO YOUR TAKE ON THIS. i gave it a shot and i gotta say u were right MILESTONE IS AMAZING. THE SCENT IS JUST BREATH TAKING. wishing club de nuit intense intense was such a smooth pleasing fragrance from scratch. Damn! I just received it and im already thinking of buying another one. Thanks mate
The video was so intense 🤣 i just bought Milestone. The og is 3rd on my list to buy from Creed, GIT is up next for me. Great video and you've got a new subscriber 👍
MI was my fav Creed scent and after buying Milestone its difficult to justify continuing to spend that much on MI. Milestone is about 90-95% the scent profile with better longeivty on my skin. Game over.
agreed every bit of this review.. wore it today.. 9 hours later it still lingers around me.. very good stuff from Armaf.. miles ahead compared to other clone (unforgivable, love n luck).. really hard to find anywhere in Malaysia.. sold out.. I'm one of the last buyer.. lucky me..
Had to subscribe. Best fragrance review Ive ever seen. I think you could make a great actor. LOL. I don't mean you were acting whole time. Just the emotions you are depicting.
Hi, you got me to this creed fragrance Imperial, bought it and lovin it. From all perfumes I ever smelled, Imperial im lovin the most. Form me just timeless good for all seasons and events. The Armaf - Club De Nuit Milestone havent testet yet. Greetings from Switzerland.
After watching hundreds of fragrance reviews from various RU-vidrs, this one is the very best I have come across. Genuine, authentic, and entertaining. I am also frustrated as to how close this is (relatively speaking) for the money. I didn't buy this one because I am such a fan of MI. I only bought this to qualify for free shipping and think I will be reaching for this all summer long on my travels. While I am late to the party, Armaf has pulled off another great, easy-reach fragrance. For the price, it shouldn't be this good.
@@kuhar5165if it wasn’t for creed creating the smell you wouldn’t be paying for anything that smells like this so I’d say be supportive of the brand who came up with the original scent tested it and put it out on the market
A year on from this video and after a few months of me coming across this fragrance ive finally purchased a bottle. To my amature nose its a unique smell compared to the 50 odd I have in my collection and im struggling to like it although I keep going back for a sniff and the more I do the more its growing on me however I dont get a sea salt fruity freshness and ive ignored the opening but to me it smells like pine trees and not in an unpleasant way I just can't work this one out yet. Perhaps ill need to see how it smells in the summer. P.s great content love your take on the fragrance world keep up the great work 👌
You forgot to mention the most important difference with MI and Milestone. The performance. My gold bottle of MI, as much as I love the scent is almost redundant to me to wear out because it only lasts about 2 hours max then it's gone. SO not worth it's price tag.
Just purchased a bottle cause of this review. Never tried any Creed Fragrance, but if this is anything like Sean John Unforgivable im gonna be in love wit it!
