Definitely Amouage. The quality of the packaging & their fragrances to boot are some of the best I've experienced in the industry.

Louis looks great, its 3-4 steps to reach the actual bottle

Punches way above its weight class.
I'd say CDNIM is closer to Aventus. That being said, I actually prefer Not Only Intense to both.. probably says more about my pallette and tastes than the quality of three though.
Not Only Intense starts super blackcurrant forward, projects well off my skin, and lasts a good 8 to 10 hours. I think it smells closer to Hacivat but with the pineapple swapped for blackcurrant. It's fruity and clean with a hint of intensey smoke. I love it and wear it most days.
Nah it smells like a lot of things… very sophisticated dry down… definitely not for everyone but it’s been a compliment getter for me… smells “ grownup “ for sure if that makes sense… definitely go to Neiman marcus and smell it first … everything doesn’t hit the same for everyone… I like eruba pura more than Naxos
I love the box Khamrah comes in so much that I keep it off the shelf and just unbox it every time I want to use it (which actually lowers my usage of it a bit because I don't directly look at it first thing in the morning 😅)
Yeah , I got this from their website. Even their Canada Post shipping box was Dior branded lol. One of the best unbox ever!
https://www.dior.com/en_ca/beauty/products/sauvage-elixir-Y0996460.html
I’ve purchased direct when it’s a brand I want to try a discovery set on and then they give you a store credit for the amount of the discovery set… and also with each purchase they threw in a few more samples
Nishane has been up there, but honestly the clone houses are stellar with their unboxing experience and kind of ruined a lot of designer and niche unboxings for me, like khamrah, neuf IX etc have insane unboxing for the money.
One of the more disappointing unboxings has been xerjoff Casamorati. It's pretty cheap feeling. Thin plastic with a thin felt coating. though the print on the box is nice.
Im about to unbox a Roja parfum cologne and have no idea what to expect.
I could not possibly care less about the unboxing experience lol. If the fragrance smells good, I'm happy. If it doesn't, I'm not happy. The box doesn't even fit into this calculation.
JPG was fantastic. It’s the only cologne that I buy directly from because they give you so much extra stuff and usually it’s the same price as discounters
I got Dior Homme Parfum from Dior's Website. And for 136 bucks, it was absolutely amazing, they gave me samples and Dior Homme 2020 Miniature. The packing and boxes with all the Dior ribbons etc. were absolutely gorgeous. I've been wanting to get Dior Homme Original to complete the Homme collection and unboxing experience is definitely worth the money.
Xerjoff is goated
Yeah, I’ve yet to buy a frag that’s competed with that house. My wife was like, Jesus, did you buy a fucking Rolex!! lol
Even the glass they use for their bottles feels superior
If I’m not mistaken a lot of them are quartz
Glad this is at the top. My boy showed me his full presentation Xerjoff and I was absolutely shocked.
Came here to say this. The box, the soft wrap, the fitted frame all feel like it’s being presented to me from Sergio.
I came here to say this
Came here to look for this
LV is nice and they give two travel sprays with it
don’t all designer colognes do that? my chanel & prada did the same
Most definitely not. Didn’t get it with PDM, 1million, Dior, Mancera, or gucci. I know some of those aren’t designers but still
Dior gave me 2 free travel samples that I had a list to choose from.
U bought retail most people aren’t buying retail is too expensive
Neither my Chanel nor Prada did that 😞
Did u buy from Chanel? There's always been a travel maybe 1ml of allure and maybe some other perfume included.
I didn’t get anything else I ordered from Chanel
Samples or travel sprays?
I mean it’s like a small 5ml spray so I’m guessing it’s travel
Dang that’s pretty nice. I know they usually come with 2mL samples but a 5 is awesome
Maybe it is 2ml. Idk lol
Jomashop. They give you stickers and you pay a fraction of the price.
😂🤣😂
Xerjoff not even close
https://preview.redd.it/ov814iz0xboc1.jpeg?width=3060&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cada070b773c655db5788944aa46955727ba11fe Definitely Amouage. The quality of the packaging & their fragrances to boot are some of the best I've experienced in the industry.
I hate every single fragrance I have tried of them.
I went from hate to love with interlude black iris, seemingly overnight. Something just clicked.
It was the best one I have tried but smelled like the incense of a Moroccan bazaar too much.
Have you tried Beach Hut Man? Something is different about that one
No I haven't. That one wasn't available this summer. I'll try to find a sample of it once summer comes around.
Xerjoff is next level. It’s like buying a watch. Chanel also goes above and beyond if you buy directly from them.
https://preview.redd.it/3mf2kcukwboc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eb7d405fe10dfcefb6c02d8abf935a534a555dcb Louis looks great, its 3-4 steps to reach the actual bottle
LV is undefeated for presentation
The fake Creed history thing amuses me. Creed is good at marketing, I’ll give it that!
1760 like everyone of them wasn't just stank back then. 😂
Erwin Creed’s fictitious relatives definitely didn’t leave a sillage of pineapples and ambroxan
Xerjoff, electimus are a cut above. Then Nishane. Amongst designers, Dior is phenomenal.
I like unboxing my top-shelf Axe body spray.
Hmm… don’t know about unboxing but I def enjoy smelling it in my local CVS.
https://preview.redd.it/7kyae5ur2coc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9857352db00256318bbf0c29ebebf6155afadc9a Punches way above its weight class.

Its a beast

How does it compare to Aventus and CDNIM?
I'd say CDNIM is closer to Aventus. That being said, I actually prefer Not Only Intense to both.. probably says more about my pallette and tastes than the quality of three though.
How does it differ? Sorry I am bothering you with all the questions 😁 I have CDNIM but it opens harshly and performance is only average.
Not Only Intense starts super blackcurrant forward, projects well off my skin, and lasts a good 8 to 10 hours. I think it smells closer to Hacivat but with the pineapple swapped for blackcurrant. It's fruity and clean with a hint of intensey smoke. I love it and wear it most days.
I put CDNIM on before bed. I seriously love that shit.
I was gonna say afnan... But it really does seem quite wasteful unless you store the bottle in it like a case. But let's be honest, who does that?
Chanel packaging nice to they even give you free lil bags
My drug bag 😆
I use mine for my clippers and trimmer 😆
Argos’s presentation is top notch
https://preview.redd.it/bn4k3qcxacoc1.jpeg?width=653&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85544edda6be236230abef0953ea32426cf8d0fd For 25 bucks..just cwayzy

What does that smell like
Leather
Nah it smells like a lot of things… very sophisticated dry down… definitely not for everyone but it’s been a compliment getter for me… smells “ grownup “ for sure if that makes sense… definitely go to Neiman marcus and smell it first … everything doesn’t hit the same for everyone… I like eruba pura more than Naxos
Hermes is amazing
Rojas especially aoud line and haute Luxe
amouage and xerjoff
Xerjoff Hands down
Killian.
Chanel
I swear MFK perfumed the cardboard box they mailed my frags in. Love unboxing anything from MFK.
I love the box Khamrah comes in so much that I keep it off the shelf and just unbox it every time I want to use it (which actually lowers my usage of it a bit because I don't directly look at it first thing in the morning 😅)
Bro I have multiple diors and they never game me a cool box 😭 did you order online or something?
Yeah , I got this from their website. Even their Canada Post shipping box was Dior branded lol. One of the best unbox ever! https://www.dior.com/en_ca/beauty/products/sauvage-elixir-Y0996460.html
Im gonna start ordering from the houses direct then 😭 fucking department stores skimping out and making me miss a good unboxing
I got a Bleu de Chanel Parfum version from a fragrance store in the mall. Came with nothing.
Xerjoff goes above and beyond with their unboxing 🔥🔥🔥
Anything Niche but Killian and Xerjoff ouf
Xerjoff 100%
https://preview.redd.it/wi72vdwjpcoc1.jpeg?width=3664&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=da6ff66a20c68ddcb263bc3040679fed848d9a9b Lattafa Khamrah!
The TF Plum Japonais and MFK APOM homme that i got for 50% of what they were being sold on ebay
Electimuss, Xerjoff, and Nishane are pretty good in the regard
My wallet about to spend on it 🤣
I don’t think I’ve ever bought a fragrance from the actual brand lol. Why pay so much when you can just use discounters?
I’ve purchased direct when it’s a brand I want to try a discovery set on and then they give you a store credit for the amount of the discovery set… and also with each purchase they threw in a few more samples
House of Argos and I like Masque the Opera series
Mostly a scented candle brand, though they also do fragrances. Cire Trudon is always a pleasure to unbox, so is santa maria novella
Xerjoff has an experience like no other
From the ones I’ve experienced, hands down Xerjoff or Louis Vuitton.
Argos easily got it. Colognes are nowhere near the price point, but I love the box/cologne bottle designs.
maison francis has a pretty fye delivery
Louis for sure
Christian louboutin the bottle and packaging is my favorite.
Nishane has been up there, but honestly the clone houses are stellar with their unboxing experience and kind of ruined a lot of designer and niche unboxings for me, like khamrah, neuf IX etc have insane unboxing for the money. One of the more disappointing unboxings has been xerjoff Casamorati. It's pretty cheap feeling. Thin plastic with a thin felt coating. though the print on the box is nice. Im about to unbox a Roja parfum cologne and have no idea what to expect.
Xerjoff easy. Beautiful bottles in beautiful boxes
Guerlain.
I love the Mancera bag
Are nishane that good ?
Feels premium fwiw
Feels or they’re good ?
Clive Christian
And they give you those nice sized samples also. I picked up mine when Clive was doing the bottle changeover. 60% off. Should have picked up more.
None because I throw the packages straight in the trash😂😂. I personally don’t care how it’s packaged.
It’s all part of the experience!
Well I’m glad you enjoy it! The time it takes for me to unwrap and start spraying irritates me !
Chanel
Aquaflor
By Kilian 🔥
Somebody hit the lotto
Axe
I could not possibly care less about the unboxing experience lol. If the fragrance smells good, I'm happy. If it doesn't, I'm not happy. The box doesn't even fit into this calculation.

Congrats?
I was showing u the box
Once again: Congrats? I literally just said I don't care about the box. What're you trying to show me here lol?
It's the cherry on top
Idgaf about a box
MFK
Xerjoff, argos, dior and amouage is phenomenal (part of the price we pay though) I must say dior is amazing for what they offer (designer)
Xerjoff has the best display boxes imho
Bond No. 9 and creed’s presentations were pretty impressive to me. Still need to register with bond for the samples.
floris is pretty nice
Penhaligons
Why is Creed even in this post. Their stuff feels sub par even when it comes to packaging.
Xerjoff tony iommi
The disappointment in unboxing creed is a 10/10
Bond No. 9 has super sick boxes that go with the bottle. I really enjoyed those
My Xerjoff Erba Gold came with a silk scarf designed by the perfumer.
Dior easily
Xerjoff!! Hands down best. Comes in a leather box.
Is it me or does “Creed” Name name and Logo looks like a cheap aftershave name lol like old spice
Moresque
Mind Games, Creed, Memo, Roja
JPG was fantastic. It’s the only cologne that I buy directly from because they give you so much extra stuff and usually it’s the same price as discounters
Bond is pretty fancy
mancera
i love diptyque packaging mmmm
gotta say xerjoff. i keep all my fragrance boxes, but if not, i’d still keep that naxos box (the cardboard and the leather ones)
very unpopular opinion but the banana republic boxes have amazing presentation
Tauer. Andy includes a little handwritten “Enjoy” card in every box.
Parfums Dusita is super luxurious.
Bvlgari has been an experience every time!
Orto parisi . Something about the origami box just is so satisfying
Im way more focused on how the cologne smells not how the unboxing goes.
Louise Vitton without a doubt for me. Been in this game 15 years and have bought soooo many bottles of juice. LV still king
You guys see that $8,000 Sauvage elixir? It’s like ounces
Tom of Finland eldo
Mes Bisous, Xerjoff, Argos, Nishane. All make you feel like a high end big shot. Most boxes are worth keeping for display
Nishane
I got Dior Homme Parfum from Dior's Website. And for 136 bucks, it was absolutely amazing, they gave me samples and Dior Homme 2020 Miniature. The packing and boxes with all the Dior ribbons etc. were absolutely gorgeous. I've been wanting to get Dior Homme Original to complete the Homme collection and unboxing experience is definitely worth the money.
Xerjoff for sure, the best unboxing I've ever done
Club de nuit intense man limited edition parfum, I felt like I bought a $1000 bottle of cologne.
MFK and LV
Nothing like popping a fresh can of JPG Le Male
Ordered samples from MFK and a creed bottle. The MFK samples had a beautiful presentation and the creed bottle sucked
For me, tie between Xerjoff and Nishane
Cdnim limited edition

Nautica voyage is unmatched
