That's exactly what it is and I will never understand why many people talk that negative about ME Scents 'cause everybody copys everybody if your know what I mean😉 and that's why I Take the cheaper one doesn't matter if it is a ME scent, Designer or Niche as long as the scent is good! I've got so many Scents Niche, Designer and ME and I don't give a damn about the Name I JUST care for the scent itself!

We saw this coming. It simply boils down to money. It's the only topic of conversation. The consumer wants a saving (especially in this economy) and the designer, niche houses and sellers want to protect their profit margins. Who wins? Clone houses. Designers and sellers have been greedy for years. In order for them to survive and compete at this point, they have to drastically drop prices, not increase them. Simple math. The greedy days are over. The consumer is almost tapped out because of other factors.

@Sheliroc21 valid point, however I must intercede, the “Clone Companies “ is most like just a group of individuals who control all the “inspired” brands. For example I would say Afnan Company is legally printing money 💰 9Pm is a great example as the produce 8000 bottles a day, than from UAE 🇦🇪 another few select individuals control the “Western” markets. Which translates into they make big money 💰 as if they owned a billion dollar company but with 12-15 employees per company. Normally billion dollar companies have 100 plus employees. same thing happens in the brand name sunglasses 😎 company one 1️⃣ man controls 95percent of the top brands in Italy 🇮🇹 and told me that the highest price is Chanel glasses and cost him $9 the very highest model to complete average price on Ray van and Oakley are $2.59 to manuf😢acture.

Yes and like to jack up the prices based on scarcity rather then what the fragrance is actually worth. Even clone houses do this though so I don't know whether its the resellers/discounters to blame for this or the actual people making the frag but it can be rather annoying, only diff is that clones are still relatively cheap despite fluctuation in price. Take those Divin asylum prices for instance. Due to its scarcity I've been seeing some pretty asanine prices not only on ebay (where one would expect that sort of stuff), but on actual frag sites as well. Like I get trying to make profit but that just greedy in my opinion. Imagine if this was acceptable and common place in any other industry - like i expect people on ebay to do this but not legit sellers

I stick to clones because the price is affordable for everyone, also to be honest the a lot of the original fragrances seem to always be reformulated to the point where your sillage and longevity wont perform as long.

This comment touches me because you relate. In the hospital we see people at their all time low, often financially as well. A luxury, like fragrance, being affordable has brought so many smiles to people in need in my life that I LOVE this and the doors it has opened. The same love can be said for the higher end fragrances that arent lazy, and are unique. BOTH have their pros period! ❤

You had time today my brother....love everything you said and you are a true diamond in the fragrance space

Neeb, thanks for the education, man. I’m new to the world of fragrances and you’ve answered so many questions here. My fledgling collection has a couple of your recommendations in it (Rayhaan Elixir!) I’m loving the niche stuff, but the middle eastern stuff is blowing me away right now. You keep talking and I’ll keep listening bro. Love this channel.

I’ve gotten the niche and the clone. And use the clone more and use the niche for the special occasions. Clones and inspections are still a good thing. GREAT REVIEW NEEB💪

Congratulations on a well thought out video. I can tell a lot of effort, experience, and sweat went into it. INFORMATIVE! I started with clones, now I am drifting towards higher quality Arabian fragrances (ex Ahmed Al Maghribi, Arabian Oud), I am also purchasing some original fragrances even expensive ones. I agree with your Chanel observations. Some original fragrance purchase were the result of purchasing the cheaper inspirations. I especially enjoy your discoveries like Ignite Oud. Keep working on developing your nose for freshies 🤔! Us Caribbean dwellers love them. I can relate to your content! Thanks 😊 ❤!

To each their own. I buy what I like. I have Ultra Niche, I have Designer fragrances, and Clones. It's all about smelling Awesome, and making you feel a certain way. Live and let Live.

I don't comment on many of your videos but this one was TIGHT👍👍 Gonna be launching my own channel when I move to Thailand in Sept. Will definitely shout you out as one of the "real" ones in the game. Keep doin what you're doin👊

Great Work Sir, Thank You for all you do for us viewers. Appreciate your honesty, keep up the awesome content!!

Well said great video thank you!!

I loved this video Neeb! ❤ So informative and we get to know you on a whole different level! I so appreciated your remark about men needing some support to build more confidence. Sure, some things need to change but with all these gender and me-too issues going on these days, it just adds so much complexity to human relations and the way we are supposed to engage with eachother. It can really make one insecure. As a woman, I enjoy watching your channel for the unisex fragances. I could never justify buying a 300 dollar fragance meanwhile denying other things to my kids. But as a hard working mom, I also deserve to enjoy the good things in life. Buying clones enables me to build a collection and a variety of fragances to choose from, which I could never attain buying originals.

Amen! Love your work!!! KEEP IT UP MY BROTHER!!!!

Nice breakdown Neeb. I personally try to avoid clones. I end up buying the OG if it’s a banger. I prefer to buy decants and select full bottles of the OG that way. Quality over quantity. That being said I do still have a handful of clones. It tends to be clones of fragrances that I don’t vibe with enough to buy the OG. There is definitely still a place for clones.

Man you deserve to be the number 1 fragrance KZreadr

Clones and Inspo's I believe are a great way to test and experience the DNA of a particular fragrance. If that same DNA is something I absolutely or just cant live without, I'll usually buy the OG to support the Brand.

The bottle design of a fragrance does really matter, it's the juice inside that matters. And the presentation of many middle Eastern clone are way better that a lot of designer and niche house. In fact some are overkill. Yes some are terrible. But most now are days are well presented. For example oud noir be Arabia Prestige; a very cheap fragrance with great presentation. The bottle very heavy and the cap is also very quality. The juice inside is actually the best Green Irish Tweed I've ever smell. It smells way more quality that Armaf Tres Nuit.

@15:45 the BEST and simplest explanation of fragrance maturation I’ve heard. 👍🏾 …also I love it when I get a fragrance vid and I’m immediately interested in viewing again 👍🏾 ⭐️IMO fragrances are like hamburgers & every restaurant makes em and at every price point and quality. $5 - $100. Clones allow anyone who wants a burger to not be barred from the experience because of price.

That Azure Royal recommendation 🔥🔥🔥 I was on the fence about megamare because of the Mineral Seaweed note, Azure Royal is only the parts of Megamare that I liked. Its more synthetic but they really worked some magic with this one, the opening is well done it’s a treat!

Great video Neeb, lots of great information. Also, I have never seen anything quite like the toxicity of some of the men in the fragrance community. It's so disturbing reading the attacks on each other (and even myself). Let's all just be kind and respected to each other ❤

You are the reason i get more into feagrances. I Have know clones, niche and all between. I tried so many new smells. Now i can differentiate between quality of oils. At the end of the day i have great hobby and pay for what i want to pay. I am from Slovakia and live currently in Poland. And you help me to get into perfumes and new smells. My girlfriend same. I have friends now that ask me to recommend fragrances for them. Keep on good work my friend. Blessings

love your passion bro as an older frag head at one point I only had 3 or 4 what I considered proper fragrance's and a couple more everyday scents then a friend brought me some perfume oils from the middle east total game changer I now just buy what I like and dont worry about the name on the bottle

I don't know if KZread gives out awards but you my friend have proven time and time again why you are the head of the table as a fragrance reviewer and straight up guy period that I acknowledge as the reviewer of the year hands down. Your videos have not only saved me money but have opened my eyes to a much larger olfactory experience as well as being able to wear the closest to my long gone signature scent and I appreciate that and you for life never ever stop what you do and have a great safe blessed day

I used to do it in the complete reverse order to how many do it . I used to buy the OG and then the clone . That kinda changed with aventus for obvious reasons but that system always stuck with me but over the last few years I’ve felt more and more cheated pretty much with every purchase. The last one being afternoon swim after smelling it for the first time a few summers ago , I had to buy it , that summer I got through sooo much and knew I had to get a dupe . Someone had told me about a firm that had the DNA nailed so I was expected it to be good but what I got blew my mind. The clone was better in every aspect… it was £32 for 60ml 😕 Creed aventus … club de nuit limited edition blows it out the water Perry Ellis 360 red smells better and last longer than acqua di gio . I’ve got so many that I feel that are better than the original and yet some how smaller firms are starting to do a better job . I’ll carry on buying the original 🧬 because I’m daft but I understand why people don’t

I have a bunch of designers and some niche colognes and I swear to God it’s gotten to a point I appreciate clones and what they offer far more than the original

Always going that Extra Mile Neeb, thanks so much for the total and complete breakdown of the fragrance ins & outs. Prices high and low, quality good and fair, brand names and clones, people and their financial status… living luxuriously or coming from a check to check/borderline famine type of life.

Clones or High End things wether it be clothing, cars, jewelry, or fragrances… we all want to be able to feel the happiness that seems to come with acquiring these items that overall make us happier.

Keep up your integrity. Those folks always rise to the top.

To be honest, I JUST care for the scent itself sonwhen it's good, it's good and I've got no money to waste for a scent that is the "Original" but is pricy as hell! 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s ridiculous at most they spend like 30 dollars at max to make the fragrance and they mark it up like 930% also Jeremy exposed the business yet he did mark up his fragrances as well 😅 I appreciate clones and I will continue to buy them good day fam
