so who's ready for another GPU the GPU
is a series on this channel called the
good the bad the ugly which I added the
underrated and over eighty so it's a GPU
yuo which happens to be the most
requested series on this channel there
we're going to be talking about the
house of Michael Kors men's collection
which in my opinion is actually very
underrated on its own so if you guys
want to check out the full review here
on the full collection of Michael Kors
fragrances from an chronologically as we
always do stick around the videos up
next this is max 40 today a GPU for you
guys on the house of Michael Kors in
particular demesne collection of course
you know it if you like to make a great
first impression smelling good is always
a great way to start now the Michael
Kors collection for men is actually
comprised of six different fragrances
which will go over all of them here
chronologically like we always do but
before we hop into the fragrances
themselves a little quick background on
the house of Michael Kors Michael poore
is an American brand an American fashion
brand that is which is owned by parent
company Estee Lauder they currently have
over 50 fragrances in their portfolio
but of course we're only going to be
talking about the men's fragrances which
are six and their totality and the
actual fragrances for man started back
in 2001 with the original release simply
called Michael that I have right here on
my hands is actually a vintage bottle
from 2001 of the original tobacco dried
fruits incredible fragrance from man
unfortunately discontinued actually
Michael Kors pondered upon not making
fragrances for men at all in which they
didn't do for a few years once this was
discontinued I think back in 2010 until
they we released the fragrance in 2014
called Michael Kors for men and when you
look at these fragrances side by side
you can see that they had the marble top
the marble like top which is really
plastic but the actual aesthetics of the
bottle is actually very very close to
the original one but you can see here
the juice itself the color the original
was much deeper much yellower in ambery
and the new juice is lighter and a
little bit greener tinge as well to the
juice itself the main difference between
the two the original 2001 and the
pre-release 2014 is going
to be the tobacco they completely
extracted the tobacco from the 2014
release unfortunately I'm a huge fan of
tobacco fragrances the original one is
going to be this honey tobacco with
dried fruits a little bit in a Malek
just a stellar composition that even had
a little bit of a lavender Fujio feel to
the fragrance it was like modern meets
classic sort of speak the 2014 release
was extremely neutered they took away
that tobacco still a very nice amber II
fragrance oriental spicy good fragrance
the sprays are really nice it does the
job however if you aren't used to the
original 2001 composition you're not
going to love this one because you're
gonna miss some of the really deep and
resonance components that you got with
the original however this still smells
amazing it still is a very competent
inducing fragrance it's oriental its
finest I love the composition you have a
little bit of a vetiver dry down it's
spicy it's resinous you still have the
dried fruit kind of a nuance in here you
have the sweetness I think there's also
talk on here it's very nicely done but
when you compare both you know what's
ours projection performance the 2001
original is going to outlast and it's
going to you know just blow this one out
of the water but if you're not familiar
with the original 2001 this is actually
a really good fragrance to check out and
you're not going to disappoint because
like I said it's oriental at its finest
now this is a 2014 release so I'm going
to remove the 2001 release just because
it's discontinued no longer available
and I'll keep the current formulation
2014 which is actually a really nice
oriental and the new beginning the new
era if you will for Michael Kors
2015 they gave us a year later they gave
us a new release call Michael Kors
extreme blue now this particular
fragrance is your typical as a name
implies blue fragrance but what I like
about this fragrance is think about Blom
from each soul are like a spicier
version of that fragrance meet dolce
gabbana Oh intense light blue intense
that's what I get with this fragrance
it's actually a really nice aquatic
fragrance it's a little bit spicy as
well it's got some really nice
components in the midst the dried down
like cedar for example it's an aquatic
with a nice backbone and the performance
is actually pretty good too so if you
enjoy long from Isola Ron but you wanted
something a little spicier a little
longer lasting and if you enjoy don't
you go buy the light blue Oh intense
this is definitely a great one it almost
has like this minty vibe when you first
you know spray the fragrance in the
introduction
white nice introduction from 2015 going
away from the oriental now into the
Aquatics aromatics in 2015 this next
release now is from 2017 and as you're
gonna see here with the newer releases
from Michael Kors for men they are going
to be centered around a note of Cyprus
which I do love you guys only huge fan
of Tom Ford to tie in cyprus cyprus is a
great green creamy note that's a little
bit or basis a little bit coniferous I
do love Cyprus in my fragrances almost
as much as oak Moss and vetiver but not
quite but anyway this particular
fragrance here has both Vetter and
Cyprus and it's called extreme night now
this is going to like evening wear more
romantic dress your occasions as opposed
to this one here kind of like taking
some of the approaches the Oriental
approaches from the original but also
adding some aromatic green whose ear
like undertones with extreme night very
nice fragrance again the sprays in this
stuff are really really nice the good
thing about this one too is not only its
gonna give you that almost Fuji air like
oriental approach but also give you an
oceanic feel to the fragrance which is
really uncanny for an evening type scent
as the name implies extreme light this
is for the night time there's also a
tonka here so there's going to be some
warm components that are gonna be great
very well suiting for the evening time
romantic settings but you also have some
really aromatic
almost aquatic green tinges to the
fragrance very unique very exquisite
very different from anything that's out
there in the market today
quite nice almost niche light guys it's
still retaining that designer like a
very agreeable appealing you know
massive peeling type of a feel here with
this particular fragrance but a great
one for 2017 very underrated nobody
talked about this I didn't see any
reviews on this online definitely worth
checking out from 2017 Michael Kors
extreme Knight from 2017 we're gonna
jump to 2018 and this next one is called
extreme speed now this particular one
has a weird name extreme speed I don't
know what they meant by that speed like
what the world is going on a fast pace
if you're a business man and going on a
fast pace fast speed this is a fragrance
for you I guess so
this is very one thing about this
fragrance though it is very niche like
when I smell this fragrance it
immediately reminds me of costume
Nationale on which you guys know I love
it's a very balsamic cinnamon
residents type of assent that's what I
gained here this is going to be like a
an answer to that fragrances costume
metronome which is a very unique set
very exotic tons of cinnamon tons of
woods there's definitely sandalwood here
and dry now which makes it a little bit
creamy a little bit you know smoky this
is a great cinnamon scent very balsamic
this is the most unique and the most
niche like fragrance in this collection
and like I said in the beginning as I
think Michael Kors is definitely
underrated brand I think they're they're
putting out some good quality here that
is deserving of attention especially
when you can get this stuff at this
counters but anyway extrude from 2018
very nice very unique take like I said a
love that balsamic almost like costume
national spices woods resinous and very
balsamic great stuff here very unique
very exotic from 2018 extreme extreme
speed fast forward to 2019 as we see
here there's a release every year 2019
gave us extreme rush now extreme rush is
a beautiful bottle by the way I love the
bottles the presentations are really
cool the square-looking bottles the caps
are really nice the sprayers are very
very nice are very strong you can't
control the application depending on how
hard you push the atomizer this one here
it actually smells really good this is a
very warm scent as the bottle would
indicate you know with a red with darker
edges this to me smells like a
combination between
Versace arrows like a lighter version
more sophisticated more mature more
refined version of that particular
fragrance meets Burberry indigo for men
so you're gonna have some of the
aromatic green herbal kind of nuances
you're gonna have some more of that
mature vibe that I talked about you know
from from the other fragrances here that
aromatic FoodShare that you get with
indigo with the mint some of the herbal
nuances but you're also gonna have some
of the oriental stuff here like you get
with arrows from Versace like the tonka
beans this is gonna be again very full
very deep great for romantic settings
evening wear just a great set all of
these fragrances are gonna be very
complementing they are very good when it
comes to compliment they're very good
when it comes to crowd-pleasing factor
none of these will let you down and as
far as performance they are quite good
as well I got at least 6 to 7 hours with
each of these compositions and if you
spray a coil you talking about 8 Plus
which is really not bad so extreme rush
from 2019 it's like Burberry indigo
meets Versace arrow
lighter more refined version of that
fragrance and then finally 2020 this
year earlier this year we had this
release year called extreme sky which no
one's really talking about it but I'm
quite impressed with this particular
fragrance this is not gonna be just
another blue scent now it's taking notes
from the 2015 release which is an
aquatic scent and this is actually going
to be a vetiver as an accent which is
very professional very elegant and very
sophisticated I'm actually really taking
a lack to the set I've been wearing this
a lot for work if you like that of her
fragrances like a Karl Lagerfeld there's
a vetiver fragrance from Karl Lagerfeld
this reminds me of that fragrance if you
like Dunhill iconic they're like those
kind of vetiver fragrances that are very
citrus aromatic like a fruity you know
type of vetiver that's what you're gonna
get in this particular fragrance it's
not overwhelming by any way shape or
form it's actually quite pleasant very
fruity there's a beautiful note of cedar
in here the vetiver here is extremely
stellar in this fragrance very well
composed or well balanced just a great
vetiver a sonic type of a scent for
those that don't like really old school
batteries this is definitely one to
consider you guys know how much I love
that bat AFER's so for me to say this is
a great scent it's saying alive so
perhaps I'll do a full review for you
guys on extreme sky because I think it's
definitely one of the best releases of
2020 so far alright so it's almost time
to review the good the bad the ugly the
overrated and underrated in the house of
Michael Kors men's collection but before
I do that I'll let you guys know that I
picked these up from fragrance Network
fragrance calm and you can too on my
list all these fragrances in description
so you guys can check them out and of
course they have thousands of great
high-end designers just like these or
niche fragrances for very competitive
pricing and the most important 100%
authentic so guys check the links in the
description and enjoy alright let's talk
about the good guys you know obviously
if I had to pick one if I could only
have one it would be this one which is a
great tobacco dried fruits type of the
scent but since it's been discontinued
and reformulated I'll still go with the
2014 release because this is what you
can get today and it's still a great
amber oriental scent even though they
took away that tobacco it's still very
nice you almost get this boozy Accord
perhaps there's ramen here as well a
great oriental spicy scent with a ton of
cinnamon so if you like spicy fragrances
you're gonna enjoy this very masculine
very sensual great scent still to me the
good from the collection right
to this day the bad for me would have to
be extreme blue which is a nice scent
but I think there are better
alternatives to this fragrance which by
the way all these fragrances come in a
2.3 70 mil like this size right here or
120 ml 4 ounces like the bigger ones
that you see here and they were going to
range between 35 39 dollars for the
small one to about 50 to 60 dollars for
the bigger one
not bad for what you're getting here
fifty seven sixty dollars gonna be the
range here for the for the large size
again not a bad Buy but I think there
are other options for aquatic blue
scents in the market that will you know
definitely outlast this especially when
it comes to performance the scent itself
is actually really good but the
performance here was not as good as I
was anticipating so perhaps this would
be the bad not a bad fragrance just
because of the performance it's not as
good as I would think this is probably
the weakest of all the fragrances here
so hence the fact that is the bad right
now for the good the bad and the ugly
the ugly I'm gonna give it two extreme
rush not a bad set guys like I said it's
like a mix between Versace arrows and
indigo from Burberry it's not a bad set
at all but it's like it didn't want to
decide where I wanted to go if it was
going to be a citrus aromatic or you
know an oriental or woody spicy scent it
was kind of like in the middle all the
time I wanted this to be a little more
you know resinous a little deeper a
little stronger when it came to like
your rental stuff like the spices the
cinnamon the deeper elements and it kind
of you know didn't go all the way as I
thought or wanted this fragrance to go
so therefore the ugly it's not an ugly
scent for any any way shape or form just
I have to pick one so this would
definitely be the one in fact if I had
to get rid of one fragrance here in the
collection this would be the one it's a
little bit redundant I think I have
other deeper darker scents that are in
the same genre here that would do better
in my rotation in this particular one
hence the fact that is the ugly here on
this good bad and ugly but again not a
bad sense check it out you can get it
for a really good price
except for worth checking out the most
underrated it's almost like there's two
underrated fragrances here but I'll have
to give it two extreme sky which I'm
really enamored with this fragrance
right now even though the extreme speed
is actually a really nice unique
fragrance almost a niche like like I
said to you guys
reminds me of costume now Chanel we have
this coconut big type of a vibe with the
spices the cinnamon
creamy sandalwood great spicy scent but
I think I'm gonna go with extreme sky
just because it's the newest release and
it smells fantastic if you like blue as
onic fragrances they took it they
knocked it out of the park with this one
guys the vetiver here's done to
perfection I love this stuff and if this
is any indication of where Michael Kors
going from now on I'm actually really
happy with this release so therefore it
be underrated from from the whole good
bad and the ugly here is going to go to
extreme sky and finally the overrated
this brand does not have an overrated
fragrance guys this brand actually never
really gotten traction here in the
fragrance committee no one really talked
about these fragrances this this
particular one sometimes made some top
fall or winter videos but really people
don't really talk much about Michael
Kors they never really got off to a
great start here with a fragrance
community and perhaps they've been
releasing a fragrance almost every year
now for the past six years since the
inception of the release 2014 Michael so
hopefully we're gonna see some better
things in the future from Michael Kors I
honestly think it's a very underrated
brand and I honestly think you guys
should check it out there's some really
good you know offerings here that will
do a great job especially when you think
about the pricey McGann fragrance snap
we'll have these at great prices for you
guys so it's definitely a great way to
check these out some of these are even
available and testers like the bigger
bottles they come with caps so it's
definitely a great way to check these
out guys again can I have a link below
definitely check it out you're not gonna
disappoint there's something here for
everyone and of course those are my
