About this video

This list is for the times you want something that feels a little different from your usual designer fragrance. Oud Vanille, Fortitude, Bottled Absolu, XX Artisan, Jazz Club, Amalfi Citrus, L’Insoumis and Extreme Leather are the eight picks I’m covering.

The shopping links keep those options together, and the related guides take two of them further. There’s more reading on alternatives to Bottled Absolu and Jazz Club if either one is already on your wishlist. Start with whichever scent interests you most instead of assuming the whole list will suit your taste.
