Al haramain oud aqua Dubai
This one itself has gotten me a lot of compliments, great for summer, it’s a bit synthetic, but the fruitiness and freshness is there, has good projection lasts me 8+ hours overall Its citrus dominant and I can smell the bergamont and orange a lot

Armaf Club de nuit sillage
I’ve gotten same amount of compliments as aqua Dubai with this people seem to love it, this one has kind of a strong ambroxan smell that’s always there, for me it also smells a lot floral, like roses when you put then on a glass of water, it also is citrusy but not a lot, and the dry down it’s soft sandalwood with a touch of ambroxan, last 8+ hours
I also like to combine it with the Dubai aqua due to their similar smell

Rasasi Hawas Malibu
This one is also a compliment fisher like a whole aura of addictive smell, this one is one of my favorites I personally like the sweet and fresh smell of the pineapple and grapefruit combined, I can also smell the tonka bean in this which I would say is one of the only things you smell once is dries down apart from the orris root. Lasts 6+ hours for me

Khadlaj shiyaaka shadow
Another of my compliment fishers, can’t go wrong with that grapefruit opening I would say is the strongest thing I smell, after that is a deep moss smell topped by wood and lavender, smells really similar to the Rasasi Hawas so I like to combine them, lasts 7+ hours for me

French avenue Sun kissed
Opening is deep fresh cardamom smell with bergamont and orange leafs, I would also say it has that wood smell too would say this is one of the most pleasant smells and natural, it has everything a fresh clone should, lasts 4+ hours on my skin tho, lasts longer on fabric, if you sweat it’ll make it better and sweater

Beverly Hills polo club Elysian mirage
Has a strong bergamont opening, very similar to French avenue sun kissed just doesn’t have the green strong notes, I would say this one is kinda synthetic, the dry down smells like wood and mint, great starter fresh scent cuz and one of the cheapest, lasts 3+ hours, I like to combine it with the French avenue sun kissed cuz their similar and can go with each other really good

Coach blue
This one is a great fresh scent with a strong lime ozonic opening, this scent is a lot synthetic did make my head hurt, but it’s basic and I like it, the dry down smells like cedar wood and lime , the ozonic scent stays the whole time , didn’t pay attention on how much it lasted but would say 2+ hours

Odyssey limoni
Strong citrusy opening, like fresh sweet oranges, and a bit of lime, I also smell aquatic/ocean notes but they’re subtle, only lasted me 2+ hours good smell bad projection and duration

Rayhaan Tonquin Giza
Strong spices opening, straight alcohol at first too , the cocoa note on this is subtle but there, the tonka bean is the only note that makes it pleasant for me, but for you this might be a banger, would recommend not to over spray this one cuz it’ll make your head hurt haven’t used it yet.

French avenue amber empire
Strong alcohol opening( which also is present on the whole experience) I would say this is more pleasant for me than Tonquin Giza, because it also smells a lot woody to me and a spicy, the types of wood notes on this clone are carrying , not my taste tho so for you this might be a banger,

Jean marc Paris get away
Marine notes opening, smells citrusy and fresh to me, after it dries down it turns into a pleasant fresh ocean with wood scent, only lasts 1 hour for me

Wrist water Amber oud
Strong alcohol opening, after it settles it smells like pleasant cardamom, topped with soft fresh woods, and patchouli, weak duration of only 2 hours

Calvin Klein Ckin2u for him
Strong powdery opening, soft synthetic leaf scent, just a basic clean man smell, nothing special on it never buy

Classified crystal rouge
For me this scent smells like scented piss, I can’t smell any note in this don’t buy, terrible projection and duration too

My personal ranking

  1. Club de nuit sillage, very similar to aqua Dubai just has metallic notes and it’s more fruity, good projection and gets lots of compliments too
  2. Rasasi Hawas Malibu blind bought this and don’t regret it , casual manly smell is really pleasant and can wear anytime . The plum, lemon and musk is the most present in this
  3. Sun kissed

french avenue

  1. smells earthy and fresh good for summer, sandalwood carries and it’s so good with the orange and bergamont

  2. Khadlaj shiyaaka shadow really good manly scent fresh leather,

  3. would reccoment for night cool days

  4. Polo club mirage solid one and is cheap blind bought this barely used it but it’s a good freshy and clean scent

8.marc get away this one barely has a smell for me but it smells like the ocean covered in citrus with fresh scent

  1. Tonquin Guiza rayhaan smells a lot like cinnamon and whiskey, I personally don’t like these spicy sweet type scents but I would say this is a solid one for those of you that like it

  2. French avenue amber empire smells spicy and sweet and a lot like liquor, it’s also an overwhelming scent that makes my head hurt, don’t over spray

  3. Amber oud wrist water , this just smells like leather and oud but in a weak way it’s kinda warm and fruity and it’s a lot powdery

12 Calvin Klein in 2 this is just a powdery scent with a little bit of fruitiness to it and freshness, like clean man wouldn’t buy it again
