Thank you guys for convincing to start sampling before buying…
Got these samples and…well the reviews will speak for themselves.

Cannot go wrong with this one. Pretty much an exact clone of davidoff cool water or creed green irish tweed. This remains one of my favourite ever scents. I am only 23 years old but this scent is timeless and I will always love it.

I tried the OG version and I found it very sweet for my liking. So I read that this one has a coffee note that makes it much better. I definitely smell it, I smell it a bit way too much. I don’t know but for me, coffee is not a note that should be on a fragrance.
This one is definitely not for me.

I never smelled La Nuit Blue Electrique so I can’t compare it to that one. I will only review this fragrance as its own thing.
Not a fan of the opening, for some reason I can smell a load of cinnamon. But after it dries down…boy does change drastically!
First off, I love the lavender in this one. If you don’t like Lavender steer away from this one. If you do like lavender, this one is a no brainer.
It’s a perfect mix of lavender, woody and warm spicy. Would easily wear this and pull this off, but not something I will get for my collection as I am extremely picky on what scents I buy. I only like to have fragrances which I absolutely love.
Final score: 7.8

Never smelled LV L’Immensite so I can’t compare it to that one.
Very citrusy and amber forward. Super fresh and versatile fragrance that can be worn in Summer and Winter. Also very mass appealing. I compare to a clean wet wipe smell.
Out of all these samples, I can confidently say this is the safest blind buy one can make.
Once again, this will not be added to my fragrance collection as I do not LOVE it.
Final score: 7.2/10

Had a lot of hype for this one. It is described as an aquatic and marine type fragrance. However it is not your classic aquatic fragrance. I would not even classify it as so.
It’s a very bitter, inky, dark ocean scent. It’s somewhat boozey as well. One of the weirdest fragrances I’ve ever experienced for sure.
Do not listen to people comparing it to Kenzo Homme, it is very different. Not a safe blind buy as it’s very unique.
Again, not for me unfortunately.

Nope. Literally smells like lemon. Thats it. Thats all I can smell. The worst one of all the samples.

Waaaaaayyyyy to sweet for my liking. I would consider this a feminine scent.
My girlfriend loved it and told this is the one she likes best from all the samples. She kept on telling me I should get this. Even my brother told me this is the best one. Also my dad loved it. Which makes me wonder how the hell I did not find this fragrance nice at all. I don’t know I just would not like to go walking around smelling like a plum.
Also shows how subjective fragrances are. Each nose is different.
