 Gentlemen, Kevin Samuels, your godfather style. In today's video, we talk about some of my favorite hard to get or rare fragrances. Welcome to the channel where fashion meets fragrance. My name is Kevin Samuels. The godfather style. And guys, in today's video, I take you into my collection to talk about some of my favorite rare or hard to get fragrances. Fragrances that I'm really happy that I own. You're going to want to check these out. If you like this kind of video, cool, go ahead and subscribe. Drop that like down below. Shout out to the CIA. You confident, intelligent, assertive, modern, sexy savages. Guys, if you've been watching me for any length of time, you know I tell every man to focus on the three F's. Frames, fragrance, and footwear. But today, we're going to talk about the all important fragrance. Yes, fragrance. Fragrance is actually the first thing that develops in a human. And it is the strongest scent tied to emotion in memories. Fragrance can invoke so many different things. And guys, do me a favor. Just wear a fragrance every day for 30 days. Don't skip and watch what happens. You will see that you will get that all important attention. You'll get that all important compliment. You will see that people actually are paying attention to what you were. And actually, when you smell good, people are actually happier to see you come around. And today I want to talk about fragrances for me that are just a little bit harder to get a hold of. Now, by no means am I telling you guys to go out and get these fragrances. And I'm not saying these are the most rare or the hardest fragrances to get a hold of. These are just the few that I have in my collection that I like to actually rock and wear. They happen to be rare or hard to find. And I dig them. You guys know I love rose, ood, and amber. I tend to like fragrances that are bolder, sweeter, richer, gourmand type things. You guys are going to dig this. Let's get started. Shout out to the CIA. Guys, if you want to become part of the movement, do me a favor.

Now, while chimera may not be that hard to get a hold of, many of you guys have not smelled this fragrance. Let me tell you, I'm going to do a full review or fragrance minute on each one of these because I think they're just exceptional. This sweet, rich fragrance is a complement monster on my skin. I wanted to include this one in the list because of all of the fragrances. It's probably one that you can get your hands on a lot quicker, a lot sooner than many of the others on this list and for good reason. Chimera is a fantastic fragrance and wanted to start the list off right. Next up from Rosondo, my tooth. Look, guys, I am a terrible at pronunciation, but number five, a floral amber central must fragrance was actually a pickup from a recommendation for someone I met on a fragrance group. I trust this person's nose right off the top. So when she told me to pick it up, I bought it. And I am so glad I did. As soon as I smelled this fragrance, it was going to be a keeper. And the thing is, this one is exceptionally hard to get a hold of because as soon as they hit the market, people take them. People take them, people grab them. If you ever have an opportunity to get number five in your collection, especially if you like ambers, you want to pick this one up. And even if you don't like it, I can tell you this, you won't have any problem getting rid of it. Number five is a fantastic floral amber central musk. It smells so good. Next up from the house of Armani, the Preve line, which is a massively underrated line in my opinion. We have none other than incense Incense for me is one of those second tier notes that I absolutely dig. Incense with Julie Iris and Tonka, my secondary notes. This one was much more readily available a couple of years ago. If you can find a bottle of it, guys get it because I will tell you, especially when the temperature drops under 65 degrees, this is a fantastic fragrance. The top, it starts out a little bit more incense peppery. But as it cooks on my skin, the amber starts to round out. This will just get better at the day goes on. Incense satin, fantastic. Since we're in an incense mood, let's go to Tom Ford, Sahara, Noir. This fragrance has been discontinued for a while, pretty much considered to be a grail type fragrance on the Tom Ford line, especially if you love resinous amber kind of fragrances. A simple must have for so many reasons, for collector reasons, for incense reasons, for resinous reasons, rarity, and the stuff smells great. And the bottle is even dope. Tom does things right. Sahara, Noir is no exception. Next up from now is the Louis Vuitton. We have Umbre Nomade. Guys, I've done a review on this masterpiece of a fragrance. It has entered my top five fragrances of all time for a good reason. I've said it then and I will say it again. Buy it. Just buy it. If you like Portrait of a Lady, New York Oud, Rose DRB, if you trust my nose, trust me, you will love this Rose Oud fragrance. It is hard to get a hold of and not every Louis Vuitton carries it. So you may not even be able to find a sample. Buy it, guys. Just buy it. Trust me. Keep it in your collection. Wear it on special occasions, date nights. Wear it on times where you need to feel like the man. This juice, fantastic. Pick one of the cards up here for the full review on this masterpiece. Wow. Next up from the house of bond number nine, we have none other than New Harlem sexy pancakes. I know a lot of people are bugging that they discontinued one of their best smelling fragrances of all times. Bond number nine, New Harlem has always and will always be a fantastic Gorman fragrance. I call it sexy pancakes. Guys, I see some of the prices that people are asking for this. Yes, I would pay $300 for this bottle. I would because I dig this fragrance so much. Now I would not pay $350, $400, $450, anything exorbitant like that. Nope, nope, nope. But $300 for this bottle. If you like a nice, if you like a Gorman, this is one of the best that's out there. And I know a lot of people talk about Michael Jordan, what is the legend on 23 fragrances that a Rokas man. Look, there is a difference between them. The difference is night and day between any one of those sexy pancakes stands in a class of its own and one of my favorite rare fragrances. As a side note, guys, Bond also has a fragrance called Andy Warhol. The one with his face on it, probably the best plum fragrance ever, probably one of the best plum fragrances ever made in perfumery. So wish they would actually get this one back. That stuff goes for Kings ransom. And sadly, I actually don't have my bottle anymore. I sold it to another collector. Hope you're happy with it. I still have a decant of it for my use, but on to the next. Next up, we're going to start doing some two furs from the house, the slumber house. We have pear and olive and and brassy. I don't know how to pronounce this one. All I know is this little Joker right here. This 15 ml for $500. Fantastic scent. I would not pay four or $500 for it for what I like, but I'm glad that I have it. Pear and olive, I will definitely be doing a full review on this one because this one is so, so special. This fragrance alone maybe want to do this fragrance list. Actually, this fragrance line maybe want to do this fragrance list because slumber house makes some incredible fragrances that are really kind of short run limited supply, really kind of grill like fragrances. I think they deserve more attention for collectors or for this fragrance. Don't break your bank trying to get these in your collection. If you just a casual everyday wearer, maybe get a one ml sample of it just to kind of smell what's going on out there. But look, if you don't, but if you don't, you won't be killing yourself. This is a very sweet fragrance and this is a very bold fragrance. Both of them incredible and I'm glad I have them in my collection. Next up from the house of Dior, we have none other than Suntown Noir. I reviewed this fragrance before. I dig this peppery rose fragrance on so many levels. I'm not going to belabor the point other than saying I'm glad I had this in my collection. I had to go through hell and high water to get it, but I'm glad I did. But the next one, the big boy of them all, Mitza. Yes, Mitza. Colt classic up there with Vetiver and Onoir. But this one, my friends, this one, it is hard to put into words what this fragrance is. And yet I got the big boy bottle, the big boy bottle. And I'm actually thinking about decanting some of it out to share with some of the fragrance fans out there. So if you're interested in possibly getting a decant of this, if I do, I put it in the Fragrance Group and I'll let you know. But this one, gosh, this one, I'm going to do a full review on this, but both of these things are so distinctive. No Suntown Royale does not smell like this. I mean, it's similar, but this is just one is just head and shoulders above that one. And Mitza, Mitza is in a class of its own review on this one coming. I'm glad I have both of these in my collection for rarity for so many other reasons. Next up from the House of the Lobo, we have some of the City Exclusive. I will be talking about the House of the Lobo more often. But right over here, we have Poirot 23, the London City Exclusive, and we have Bay Rose 26, the Chicago City Exclusive. This is a pepper lovers dream. I can't get enough of this fragrance, especially during cool months. I will be reviewing this one on its own, but I will tell you right now, it is fantastic, especially when you're dressed up. It evokes London or how I would think London would be so well. But this one right here, Bay Rose, I have Rose 31, but this Peppery Rose blew my socks off. I'm going to tell you something about the Lion of the Lobo for me. I think they do so many things. So right, I swear by their countless from my home and I dig the fragrances. I cannot wait until September next year comes. I'm going to go broke. I'm going to go broke buying all the City Exclusive. There are going to be so many of them that I'm going to get, but I really dig Amsterdam. If you have Amsterdam or Moscow, let me know. We can make something happen for either one of those Lobo fragrances. Fragrance lovers dream. Two of these babies, I am glad I have in my collection. All right, guys, that's it.
