He missed the mark on the Chypre section though. There is WAY more to the Chypre family than just patchouli. I wish he would do an updated version of this video, I'm sure he's knowledge of fragrances has grown in 2024 now that he has his own brand of perfumes.
I've been working at a fragrance shop for a little over a month now and I myself have learned a thing or two. Will definitely use this on customers more often. Thank you for the help! :)

I'm very late to the party here but I wanted to thank you for what was a truly excellent breakdown. It was informative and also fun with the way you put it together with visuals as well as examples of colognes. Thanks.
Patchouli is fresh and green but you described it as associated with dark fragrances I don't think there is patchouli in a lot of fragrances because of it's freshness
Hi, 👋🏽 when you say Safe or unsafe fragrances/ notes what exactly do you mean by that? Care to explain please ? I’d really appreciate that. Thanks in advance.
Hey. I just got into fragrances, and I was wondering if you had any recommendations? I bought Dylan blue as my first fragrance. Any suggestions? Love ur vids btw
Dolce & Gabanna The One EDP for dates, Dolce and Gabanna Light Blue Homme OG or Intense for summers, Mont Blanc Explorer for a cheap and versatile fragrance that smells like Creed Aventus (a very expensive fragrance) and maybe Bleu De Chanel for a slightly “classy” bit fresh fragrance. I know most of them are fresh and blue fragrances but as a beginner that’s a safe and good route to go. Also, don’t buy retail, use FragranceNet.com and you can buy more fragrances for less money.
When I get to the end of number four the video for some reason jumps back to the fougeres and starts, then jumps back again at the end of number four. It's so frustrating I just can't see the woods for the threes.
Cool! So can anyone give me a suggestions on finding a men's fragrance which convey's leather and cinnamon, but I also want to throw out the words smokey, and a log cabin nested in the forest:)
Men i really love your videos and i love the fragrances but in my country Morocco the fragrances its so expansive i dont have anything any fragrance what your recommendation something cheap
If you really want to mess with people's heads combine a feminine fragrance Rose and say sandalwood with a masculine some sage, cedarwood, and bergamot.
That would be a family of its own, although not a traditional ones as a lot of these molecules are modern and created after this classification system!
