UPDATE: sooo, in the few days since recording this video, my bottle of Al Nashama has changed a bit. It basically transformed to a more faithful Paragon clone. I have no idea why it changed so suddenly. I mean I’ve heard of aging but not this quick 😂 Now it smells like paragon with a bit more creaminess and slight citrus. Have you experienced maceration this quick before?

@taydidit 5 месяцев назад

brooooo i actually had the same thing happen with Fragrance World Intro Aftermath (Initio Side Effect clone.) when i first purchased it the vanilla was over powering however i mindlessly let it sit for a month and macerate. recently revisited it and the booze has definitely pushed itself to the forefront comparing closer to the real deal.

@sharfalor4244 5 месяцев назад

Yes, with Honor and Glory. It's often just a case of emptying the straw inside so I usually give it a shake, do at least 10 sprays then a few each day for a couple of days.

@LightedSpot 4 месяца назад

Hello ! So would Al nashama be a better clone of Paragon?

@commonscentsreviews 4 месяца назад

Al Nashama is the closest I’ve smelled. Vintage Radio is a little not more plum heavy

@steveno4871 4 месяца назад

The going theory is that clone house tends to skip a waiting process for the ingredients to mature with little oxygen in the final/semi-final batch before hitting the bottle.

@CaYD18 4 месяца назад

I love the way you explain each perfume. Well thought out and very detailed. Worth the subscribe. I just wish vintage radio would be available worldwide.

I found Al Nashama kind of milky and linear on the dry down. After about 2 weeks I'm loving it! I got a 10ml for a steal on Banadirfragrance. Not trying to promote, but otherwise i never would've even bothered trying this. I wanna try Aftermath as a daily wear being its dirt cheap.

Vintage radio smells amazing but for some reason I go nose blind after the first 15 to 30 min but I revived lots of complements Even after 6 hours.

What model watch is it? Do you have the casio Duro? Been looking at the Pepsi dial one for the upcoming summer season at the water theme park.

Mine is the MTP-1370D-1A2. I love the Duro but have a bunch of other divers otherwise I’d totally pick it up! That Pepsi is sexy

@fashionandfrags 5 месяцев назад

@@commonscentsreviews yeah I have a few divers, too, but I worry the bracelets might get scratched up going down the slides. The duro can take a beating and comes with a rubber strap. Plus, I don't have a Pepsi dial yet so I'm probably getting it for my next Wild Waves Season pass.

@PwnageEngage 5 месяцев назад

Hey just some friendly advice as someone who watches a lot of fragrance YT. You seem like a very chill, down to earth and genuine reviewer. I think it would help to, instead of saying "a lot of friends asked me about this" or "a lot of women asked me" it would be great to give a specific number. Even if it's only 1 or 2, i'm personally kinda burnt out on the reviewers who talk about recieving a TON of complements from a TON of women, where EVERYONE asks "what are you wearing!?". IDK, jsut my 2c

@commonscentsreviews 5 месяцев назад

Hey! I totally feel you. Not every fragrance gets me compliments and sometimes it's just a handful like you said. With Vintage Radio, almost every time I've worn it out or around people I know, someone has asked about it. I appreciate the feedback

@BlessedDelight1 5 месяцев назад

I guess what scent reviews is trying to say is he genuinely enjoys giving his reviews that are authentic and not for stats. Many people today only care to smell good to gain attention and not because it aligns with their personality/ self. Either you’re worried about perfumes because you care what people think and not what you feel to explore. I think the videos are great as is. Thank you scents for being you and proving us with true and honest reviews 😊 and I know they take a lot of time so thank you 🙏

@GunGuy258 3 месяца назад

I can not stand Vintage Radio. Every frag reviewers let me down on this one. It smells like the 1980's giant Avon Powder and pad. It's so nauseating. Idk if it's the lavender or what? It is the same with Lattafa Ramz Silver. Both smell like Grandma Powder.

@chubi143 2 месяца назад

@GunGuy258 2 месяца назад

@chubi143 vintage radio definitely smells like old lady perfume. The lattaf Ramz Silver actually matured and has a great smell. It's feminine af though, so my wife wears it now.
