    I've recently gotten a bottle of Onyx Extreme, the longevity is incredible. It blows all other rose oud fragrances out of the water. I have worked 24 hour shifts and get home and take my clothes off and still get strong smells of Onyx dry down. I can not say enough good things about this brand, especially in terms of price with regard to the quality of materials used.

    I don't really get the confused as to why he doesn't know what other houses fragrances smell like. If he went around smelling other fragrances all the time there would undoubtedly be some influence, even if it's unintentional. He is trying to come up with things on his own, that way he's got the best chance of making them smell unique as he's taking the raw elements and putting them together until HE thinks they are perfect. Just like what he said at the end of the video, he's passionate about what he does and wants to make what he enjoys. Naturally I'm sure he's hoping that other people are going to enjoy it too, but I guess it's a risk anyone takes by trying to come up with an original fragrance.
