This is my favorite flanker channel.

The original is quite a bit older but still holds up very well.

[tnmak]

I can't believe they reformulated the Original Channel Gents scents, thank god for this flanker!

[Gintoki]

Petition for Ash to change the channel name to Gents Scents Elixir Absolute Parfum Intense Eau Extrème

[victorashul]

it's easier to push something in an existing line and it costs less in terms of marketing in order to set it off

[brian_db]

I enjoy the educational aspect. Thank you so much as a new to cologne game guy

So when I was just getting into the hobby (after Mugler eliminated its plethora of A*Men flankers), I had read that A*Men Pure Malt was a good fragrance to try. Not knowing what flankers were, I went to the local fragrance shop and grabbed the original A*Men.

Information like this is helpful to someone, regardless of where the rest of us are on this journey

10:04 I get it, Ash. ralph lauren and Dunhill are the firm and Aqua Di Gio and Luna Rosa, A*Men are the product. Here's how to identify a collection from a flanker. When can we expect flankers on Terra Nova MML? ☝️🤓🔥

A good example of a line that produced a gazillion of flankers is the Davidoff cool water line

[LarryAsberryJr]

A great to illustrate these relationships is the Hugo Boss The Scent line. I tried explaining flankers to my wife and she immediately lost interest 😂

[jameschavera]

Would you be able to let us know how the PI flankers were, good or nah? Mercedes Benz had a good collection to, I only got my hands on one.

[michaelbullock]

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

If im starting my collection, this video explains a lot what a flanker is. Nice video. Oh by the way, we have a quiz about it tomorrow. 😊

I started purchasing/collecting fragrances when you could choose from an EDT and and EDP and with certain lines there might appear a Parfum. It seems that by the late 90s flankers began to appear. Some were extraits or extremes. These were scents that you could recognize the origin scent in still. Then what we mostly know as flankers began to appear - same origin name but the scents began to really move away from the origin scent. These days there is a really mixed up association of flankers to the origin scent some line will move away from the origin scent for a few years and then a flanker will seeming out of the blue return to the original line dna - D&G Light Blue comes to mind. I say all of this not in judgment of the state of fragrance, more to reflect on the complexity I’ve experienced with scent.

Has Ralph Lauren got a Diana Ross fragrance to go with the Supremes?

[carltonhobbs]

You should have mentioned the original Polo, adding a little kink in the Ralph Lauren Supreme example.

[lilmamiswatchme]

What do you make of the whole Givenchy Gentleman…universe.😅😂
Did I miss a mention of the original Sauvage from 1966? -those 2 lines had me really confused, stopping and starting decades apart with the same name and then flankers coming..🤷🏽‍♀️

After elixir, you have to go to Potion or Witches Brew Intense concentrations
