You didnt need to do research cause gentscents literally told us that its the same people behind his brand. They contacted him to work on a navitus collection, but he told them he wanted to do his own brand. Also did u even try any of stevens collection? They might remind u of other frageances, but the one I tried wasnt a clone. Pretty much every single fragrance out gets compared to something else. Like the new kilian angels share gets compared to oajan and ambre narguile.

All of them talked about their briefs, showed the tens of different mod bottles sent to them by the perfumers and even interviewed some of the perfumers theyve worked with. Theyre definitely not throwaways. The investor is just financing the whole thing, steven/ashton/bbb etc. do the creative part

got yall fr

Did a quick Aventus rating session with my girl. Rated from 1-10. All sprayed on paper.

Aventus 20H11N (2020 reformulated): 8.0
PV Pineapple Vintage Intense: 7.5
PV King: 6.0
PV Emperor EDP: 8.2

So in other words they just throwing they names on some stuff to cash out on they youtube celebrity.

Ain't no "Every fragrance gets compared to something else"

These the same people that do Armaf. It's a clone house like Dua and Alexandria. They just upping the price on folks and calling it "niche".

Tens of different mod bottles, but Gentscents bottles are Mancera clones? Redolessence's bottles are Roja clones? Word?

One of the main narratives on Redolessence's line was that it was a bunch of clones. Now it's " Every scent gets compared to something else."

Also like how all them youtube reviewers got at Jeremy for his pricing only to turn around and charge just as much if not more.

Honestly though, f*** all these youtube fragrance reviewers.

And in the case of Demi.

Literally.

Mod bottles meaning submissions from perfumers and different formulas of the same dna as youre going back and forth to create an end product.


Theyre not working with armaf like some trolls claim. Navitus was the investors first fragrance venture. And even it was Armaf investing, the youtubers work with the perfumers. Do you actually think francis kurkdjian, sidonie lancesseur, bertrand duchaufour are composing clones for armaf? Or are they also getting paid by armaf to put their names behind clones

Heres a video of steven asking the armaf gas chromatographer to come up with 2 clones for him !

You doing too much. Clone bottles, navitus the same company as galleria(or a sister company anyways), and the fact they don't even really market it like that once the release is dropped.

Which is why I said I respect Jeremy who actually started his own ish and didn't just do a collab with some big company.

Too much shaky stuff going on with them companies and releases.

They want you to blind buy $200 bottles and don't got sample sets available at release? Stop it.

Jeremy never had samples to begin with and still doesnt lmao. But guess what, you can get samples/decants quite easily. Thats how i sampled office for men (jeremy), absolutio (navitus) & cognac cafe (galleria)

We getting samples/decants mixed up here. When I said samples I meant smaller sizes.

What's that? A 10 ml

Also Navitus is a big company compared to Jeremy which would be the equivalent of a startup. Navitus should have had samples ready. I can understnad jeremy not yet having the resources or ability to get some smaller bottles from the jump

10ml for €29-49 to "sample" 1 fragrance seems expensive and jeremy only released these 10mls a few months ago

What are u even talking about? Jeremy raised almost 2 million with his crowd fund. He def had more budget than the armaf youtuber collections

I would consider anything smaller than a full size bottle a sample. I'm pretty sure many would as well

And this is when someone not knowing about running their own business gets caught up.

Marketing, buying the bottles, travel, hiring the perfumer, testing, manufacturing, equipment, other business expenses.

There's a difference between doing it all yourself and partnering up with a bigger company that can pay for all of that

Im sure he had some cash left to order some 2mls from alixpress my guy. He just wanted you to blindbuy.

it's 2021 and I'm not arguing with folks. You got it

Any recs for a good day to day compliment getter within $100-200 range? Time of day, season, occasion don’t matter, just looking for a new signature. Would Layton be a good buy?

Layton is good, but it's more of a date night joint

Yeah id say layton is a good signature for every season except for summer. Get a sample first though
