Just a kind word of advice Justin, you have a broad, appealing and convincing presence. Maybe you should consider pursuing commercial marketing interests and /or acting.
Fresh Squad! I hope you enjoy watching this video as much as we enjoyed filming it (and as much as I enjoyed spending 4 hours editing it 😝) Disagreement is to be expected. However, if you are offended by any of the opinions in this video, you might be taking fragrances too seriously. 😎
I hope people are not offended it doesn't change the way you feel about what you like. I must admit though i am liking the harmless jokes on Gabri and her taste just tell her its all fun and games she is still amazing.
I liked the video, though I had liked even more if they had smelled the dry ones and re-rated the fragrances again, because with D&G The One, for example, I actually like the first minute, but the dry down is too much for me. Good work!
@@mehiareltayeb7206 Video was full of laughter, great mood and u come here with your sadness and unhappiness. No need to be taking this seriously, it's their opinion and doesn't change your own or other peoples opinion about this fragrances. Check yourself, it's only a fragrance 🤷
I feel bad for the guy that goes on a date with Gabri. His sent of the day better be BOUNTY the fabric softener if he wants to win her heart........or spill eggnog on his shirt
I wouldnt what to date a girl that almost never like any smell I like quite a lot of different smells and I wanna be able to mix and match things up every day and often use two different fragrance everyday but with her you will almost never get it right.. nah I aint up for that
But she is beautiful I gotta say.. maybe she just need to smell a lot of fragrance and her nose will mature and get better because when I first started there was a lot of fragrance I also didnt like but later when I came back to a lot of fragrance I didnt like I loved them so you nose change a lot through out the fragrance journey
“Because the things I’m smelling are not in there!” So great. Can I come over and hang out? You guys are so fun together. Gabri is such a fun addition to the show. Love her braids. Also, I just realized how wavy Grace’s hair is. Love the beachy look. Anyway, do more of these. Love it. And Justin the editing was great.
Justin, you should do a top 10 spicy fragrance with notes that aren’t too common in most fragrances, both designer and niche. With the ladies of course!
That has got to be one of the best, most hilarious "Guy has girls rate his colognes" videos I have ever seen. Some of Justin's reactions to their reactions...and mine too. Lol. I can only imagine their "Eww, yuck" reactions if you gave them some strong love or hate Niche frags like Kilian Black Phantom or Creed Royal Oud. Haha But ok, to their credit, they did nail La Nuit and Layton.
After a while, you can tell Gabri likes spicey fragrances. This video show one should wear fragrances that you like and not for the pleasure of other people.
Oh and it's great that Gabri has a very selective nose. I'm sure good perfumers would love the challenge to make something she truly loves. Can't apologize for having scent associations. That's life
I would be afraid to wear any fragrance around Gabri. She's a tough critic lol. She snubbed 3 of my all time favs ultra male, coach platinum and code profumo :(
I bought into the hype and purchased a 5oz bottle of wanted by night without sampling it. I wasn't impressed at all. Reminded me of a sickly sweet version of valentino uomo.
8:49 Gentlemen if you find a woman that don’t like your fragrances, dump ‘em. Can you mind a woman like, Gabi? Can’t please her. 11:15 seriously…The King of Colognes, Creed Aventus a 6/10? Wow. Single?
I just wanted to know, did your special guests have a bad sinus day, because their reaction to Prada L'Homme is shocking. This amazing fragrance received a fantastic score of 4.37 out of 5, that is currently rated by 4,939 people on the famous fragrance review website Fragantia. I am sorry but your TWO guests have no idea about one of the best smelling men's summer fragrance. 😠
I get a Vicks vaporub vibe from Layton, too! And I'm not the only one. It settles down during the drydown, but it's still sorta there. I'm with you, Gabri! lol
@@pacman-in-oz PDM really got influencers to aggressively push their products over the last couple of years. Fake niche, high markup, and deceptive business ethics.
@@blacklite911 I had it and maybe it’s me, I just wasn’t feeling it and I feel it doesn’t have the longevity it’s hyped for, it be like that sometimes, 😂
All perfumes have a shelf-life. The more woody the notes, the longer the perfume lasts. Over time, the notes change and deteriorate. The lighter the scent, with notes of 🍊 citrus, etc, the perfume will last a good year. This is something to consider when collecting perfumes.
About Layton……it was the first Niche frag that I ever received (a year ago). I loved the scent, but I was very disappointed because it had poor performance. I wore it a couple of times after that, but still experienced poor performance. Fast forward to this past Saturday. I wore it for the first time this year (only expecting to got 4 hours of longevity). Wouldn’t you know, it just kept pushing and pushing. The projection was INSANE for at least 3 hours. Even after 3 hours, it was still really strong. 14 hours later, I was still smelling constant whiffs. I don’t know why the performance changed so much, but I’m glad that it did. I almost considered selling/trading this bottle. Lol. I’ve heard a lot about reformulation with the newer batches, so I believed it to be true (at the time). Maybe the key is to let the newer batches mature for a while. LAYTON IS 🔥
You had me in the first half because my experience with Layton was beast mode longevity like it was an oriental. I agree that it sounds like your bottle needed to mature more. Maybe they screwed up a batch.
I fell off my seat ! , when Justin Posted the thumbnail of the " You Ate Curry Earlier , for men ,Eau de Parfum " LMAO !!! . Justin is now on the top funniest fragrance shows right along side " CurlyFragrance " . Love the show , Mr. Copeland .
Gabri is such a tough and honest critic. It's great! I'd love to see her opinion of Guess 1981 Los Angeles. I got addicted to that this winter and it seems like something she'd enjoy too. This was a really fun video to watch! I'll have to try Layton eventually haha
I know you commented like 2 years ago lol, but I just watched this video today. Guess 1981 LA was such a surprise. At first, I just thought it was a cheap Versace Eros clone, but it’s definitely turns into something else in the drydown with the addition of the plum and overall a darker feel to it.
I love Gabri's sense of humor. She could talk shit over my collection and I couldn't be mad! lmao Edit: I wish you would have sprayed your other ankle. My OCD would not shut up about this. All I kept hearing was "his ankles don't smell they same, why the hell not!?" lol
Smelled Azzaro wanted by night then headed to Fragrantica for views and they just tore the fragrance apart, saying it is way too sweet and kinda disappointed me. Now thinking about it again and I might pick it up this weekend😅😅
@@stayfreshproductions Will do, looking for something as versatile as Aqua Di GioPerfumo since I've recently got two edgy scents. Got Encre Noire Sport along with Terre Dhermes Parfum and found myself low on Relaxed, versatile scents
When I started my fragrance journey at 19, I just knew there was something special with YSL. Had the privelage of owning the original batch of LNDL and guess what frat bros, it was a powdery skin scent then too. I had the aftershave and the aftershave was actually more masculine and stronger. That's what made L'homme and LNDL so special; you needed to be confident enough to wear something feminine, light, and gentle. Dear frat bros writing bad reviews on it, YOU have to approach the girl. The perfume isn't going to do that for you. When women are shoulder to shoulder with you, they can smell it just fine. People don't need to compliment you if they like the way you smell. If only I could get it in Cambodia. I would but the 6.7oz bottles of both L'homme and LNDL. But I haven't smelled original Dior Homme. That's another unique trend setter worth having. I must have all three. Going back to what seems to make YSL unique to me is that from the Opium pour homme, Rive Gauche, to LNDL, there's no denying it is a YSL. I don't know about Y though. I'm on the fence about Y. YSL has always rebelled in the fragrance industry and Y just seemed like a cash grab. I do love the salted caramel scent I get from it but is it truly that unique?
Gabrielle is ace, she reminds me of my Great Aunt Gabrielle (Gabie), she was crackers too. I look forward to the day Gabri says, "I'm getting the scent of warm lard." Brilliant video, very engaging. I'm very glad I was directed to your channel.
JC and the Phenomenal Sistas!! That session was hilarious!!! Gotta love it!! Appreciate the differences of each nose, but on paper, sometimes don't do it justice!! Keep up the great work you three and much continued success JC!!!
Yet another Great Review. The Phenomenal Grace and Another Phenomenal Gabi. Justin we Envy you. 2 Beautiful intelligence and Phenomenal women ❤. Bro I want you to be my Roll Model!!!!
13:31 This is why I love Aventus and I could never quite verbalize it. Too many mens frags smell too "cologney" and it's very obvious you just doused yourself with cologne. Aventus is a fragrance not a cologne per say, it's present but transparent enough to blend with your natural aura. It could be confused with EXTREME FRESHNESS lol. I prefer a woman to say "mmm you smell good" as opposed to "what cologne is that" and Aventus achieves that more than anything
Gabri is to picky 😂 get here to smell jean paul gaultier le male parfum. Gabri might like Hugo boss intense. I'm glad she likes wanted by night. I love that
That is a common fragrance faux pas! Coffee beans are simply more scent molecules, not too different from smelling more fragrances. It’s better to sniff something neutral, like fabric or your skin.
I’ve heard that drinking water is an effective palette cleanser. What do you think Justin? Phenomenal video, thanks for taking the effort to edit - must have taken ages!
Although two years in the future,Gabri had me rolling over. Especially the comments about what does fresh linen smell like 😂 I’m imagining what she have would been had she smoked one before the recording started. She is just uplifting. Grace too of course 😊 BTW Good chops on Trumpet.
The menthol in Layton ruins it for me. A man smelling like vaporrub is a sick man. The drydown for Layton is where the magic is, the menthol mellows out.
@@ChescoYT I am not a great lover of vanilla sweetness in fragrances, even if I love it in my dessert. I tend to be more into ambery, floral and fruity kind of sweetness. But I can see a lot of people loving a sweeter vanilla, especially in colder countries! Consider me an exception 😂
Love seeing you all have fun! This is really cool as many times it seems we take fragrances too serious…. By the way, any opinions on Banana Republic Vintage Green 78? I hear it smells like Wulong?
Dang Gabri butchered some of those man. I sincerely hope someone did not make a buying decision based on those reviews lol. I love my Prada L'homme! Good video though Justin. Yes im late to this party.
Gabri rates things realistically. People seem to think anything below a 7 is bad and anything below 5 you must hate but I think she rates things realistically
I'm curious if Gabri would give #3am a 10..... I picked a bottle up on Father's day ... 1st thing I thought of was Grace's 10 when I seen the bottle.... Stay Blessed My Friend's 😁
Great video, I would let the fragrance settle for 10 minutes before letting them smell it tho. Some opening are harsh and aren't a true likeness of the overall scent. Keep up the good work 👍
We normally would let them dry down...but as I said, I decided to give the experience they might have if they were smelling these fragrances out in a department store, which is how most people encounter them! Thanks so much Alan!
As a fragrance conissuer of fragrance I am appalled at the lack of perspicacity by this "gabri" . I'm highly dissatisfied with the rating, rank and classification of which she dare compare the scents to that of cheap household items. Obviously her olfactory bulbs are experiencing malfunction or utter defectiveness. I am capriciously perturbed to say the least, and will not be looking forward to more reviews with her participation.
Jacob, a few things to consider: 1) we are smelling these fragrances on paper. 2) we are smelling these fragrances up close. The two previous points are related because this is not how we experience fragrance when we wear it on our bodies, therefore the experience in this video is unrealistic. And finally, 3) scent is subjective. Just because someone doesn’t like what you like doesn’t make them wrong. I’m sure there are plenty of fragrances you don’t like that others do…does that make you wrong?
Gabrielle reminds me my wife, I sprayed a decant of GG reserve privee, the most beautiful fragrance that I ever smelled, and my wife destroyed my dreams by saying that " it smells like old lady medicine".....
Great vid as always brother! I know you love indie but I do like when you hit us with the popular designers. I have over 50 and Layton will probably be my first niche. Keep doing your thing man, enjoy the summer 🤙🏼
This one one of the best videos yet!!!!!!! I just ordered samples of Milliseme Imperial, Moonlight in Heaven and Layton, from scentsplit had to be sure I before I committed. I had MI before but I want to know for sure it smells the way I remember it. I’m kind of afraid that Layton wouldn’t live up to the hype after watching this video. It there anyway we can buy a sample of Brass and Soul? My nose maybe too basic for your perfume. Current favorite is LV’s Afternoon Swim. It doesn’t change much in dry down, I just love the citrus.
Thanks Phil!! We had a great time. Unfortunately no samples of Brass & Soul, but I honestly don't believe it would be too advanced for you. It is intended to be accessible!
Whaaaa! I missed the first video of the girls. Love having sisters on your videos. They are both so beautiful. I can’t wait for Grace to be a permanent:)?lol💍💍💍 Ps: they both have the heat laugh, you can tell they are naturally lovely and happy!!’
Great job as always. I’ve enjoyed all the new formulations quite a lot for another great warm weather scent ozone is amazing and your going to really like hard candy elixir weather has been crazy here in Kentucky as well
I'm not surprised by their reactions. The merchants at my local fragrance shop do not like most Prada scents or Savauge. I think it has to do with too many guys wearing the same fragrances, and the merchants being familiar with a lot of fragrances. They kept recommending less known fragrances, which I'm glad they did because there are some great scents that aren't hyped. Anyway, good to see what someone who is hard to please thinks of these. My brother is similar, he doesn't like a lot of scents.
