Thanks. I am just starting a collection and this is what I have so far. At 63, I'm a little late to the game. It all started when my wife said she wished that I wore fragrances again like I did 36 years ago when we got married.

Cody, thanks for yet another excellent video. You've been a guiding light as I've ventured beyond the mainstream fragrances (although there is certainly nothing wrong with some mainstreams: Chanel, Dior, etc). I just received my bottle of Bergamote 22, and you nailed it: sparkling, an absolutely wonderful bright citrus with a dense feel to it. I love the non-aquatic summer fragrances and this is one of the best!

Really like how your taste changes . I'm sure your collection is huge and changing it up is something that you can always do ! I think you have great influence on the community and when you pulled out M7 in 3rd , I realized that I never heard of it before . I'm very new and have taken your advice more than any other reviewer . Thanks so much and keep up the incredible work !
Thank you for another great video. I like how you tell it like it is rather than sugar coating everything. Hopefully since you are from New York you can go to Sniffapalooza Spring Fling and report back to us what it was like and what new scents are coming out. Great Job !!!
I am 29 years old and i have been collecting perfumes for 5 years now. These are my top 3 fav perfumes. 1) Dior Farenheit 2) Creed Green Irish Tweed 3) Chanel Allure Home Sport.
Ok, I'm done! Great great list.... I love several of them although not on my 10/10 list.... Three of them really intrigued me: Olifactive Studio, M7 and Oud Wood.... Keep up the great work bro and I loved your disclaimer at the opening because the video is not made for people to pick apart and critique....👍👍👍
1-Gucci Envy 2-Maison Margiela Untitled 3-Givenchy Pi 4-Carier Declaration 5- Christian Dior Bois D'Argent I accidently mixed Margiela and Cartier,what came out of it left me in absolute shock; i cant stop doing it now!

Mark Lee I live in Japan and on Amazon.jp, JF Tobacco Vanilla 1.7 oz (50ml) goes for 308 dollars, and the 3.4 oz(100 ml) is 460 dollars. NO, THANK YOUUUUUU!!
Favorite all time is mixing TF Tuscan Leather with TF Oud Wood. Should be in a bottle by itself. The Tuscan Leather sharpens and gives the Oud Wood better projection, elegant, mature, masculine to the core.
Nice list, Cody! My top five are 5. Acqua di Gio Essenza by Giorgio Armani 4. Musc Ravageur by Frederic Malle 3. Green Irish Tweed by Creed 2. Millesime Imperial by Creed 1. Arabian Nights by Jesus del Pozo

Excellent list my man! Will check out some of the scents myself. The new formulation of M7 smells totally different from the original though, IMHO. Great review!
Your description of Chambre Noire, the way scents work or not with your skin, is what is a real signature scent to me. The one(s) that work magic on you Vs others.... And not the one you prefer to wear or that you can use for any occasion like many many say.

dracdoc I used about half of my 1mL sample of Frapin L'Humaniste yesterday on the back of my neck. I overheard my professor asking whether somebody had opened nail polish remover! And that was a good 5 hours into wearing it. Perhaps I overdid it, but trust me, it lasted. Bummed me out a bit, could be a scent that doesn't mix well in cold weather
Hey Dracdoc, (talking about Tuscan Leather mixing with other fragrances) you should make a video with top 5 or top 10 fragrance combinations. I think it would be pretty interesting.
My Current Top 10 (I live in FL so not many winter frags in my collection): 1. Creed Millesime Imperial 2. IL`Eau d`Issey Pour Homme Summer 2014 3. Xerjoff Nio 4. Creed Aventus 5. Bond No. 9 - Bleecker Street 6. Boss Bottled Unlimited 7. Versace Pour Homme 8. Dolce & Gabbana - Light Blue (My go to for the beach) 9. L'Homme Yves Saint Laurent 10. Versace The Dreamer
dracdoc Thanks man. Unlimited is solid for warm weather if you like the original Bottled...I kinda like it better than the original because of the minty start and lighter/fresher dry down...wife loves it too so can't complain, it's fresh and clean!
Great video Cody! Please comprise a list of the scents, so that I can write them down and get samples of them or consider them for purchase. That way I don't have to keep replaying the video. Thanks!
YES! *Andy* *Warhol* is the Plum/Oud/Vanilla Masterpiece. Hope to get your opinion on Xerjoff's NIO oneday, since you enjoy the note of Bergamote @______@
So far I have only bought Chanel's Allure Home Edition Blanche and it is very amazing! I have Bleu de Chanel coming in the mail and I plan on trying out Acqua Di Gio! I am new to this and love your videos! Thank you for helping me expand my fragrance collection! Any recommendations on what I should try out next?
Really enjoyed the vid, Cody. Thanks. I will have to count upwards. 1. Creed Royal Oud 2. Bond #9 Andy Warhol 3. Amouage Reflection Man 4. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille 5. Serge Lutens Chergi 6. Creed Aventus 7. D&G Pour Homme ( I have the German version ) 8. Gucci Pour Homme II 9 DHI ( non-vintage ) and Dior Homme Sport ( new version ) - tie 10. Terry Mugler Pure Havanne Honorable Mentions: Lalique Encre Nior & Salvatore Faragamo Pour Homme I am now interested in Chambre Nior and Bergamont 22, and my wallet hates you. :)
Silver Musk, Nasomatto Virgin Island Water, Creed Coney Island, Bond No 9 Millesime Imperial, Creed Boss Bottled, Hugo Boss Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme, Chanel CK One Summer 2014, Calvin Klein Burberry Touch, Burberry CK One Summer 2008, Calvin Klein Hamptons, Bond No 9 Honorable Mention: Joop!

L'humaniste - spray it heavy and spray it to the clothes Cody, it does decently that way 6-8 hours; just my advice :) BTW I agree excellent scent. On my top 10 as well.
1. Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey 2. Dolce&Gabbana Pour Homme 3. Burberry Men 4. Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit de l`Homme 5. Versace Eros 6. Prada Infusion d`Homme 7. Giorgio Armani Code 8. Givenchy Play Intense 9. Rochas Man 10. Chanel Allure Pour Homme
Love this kind of video! haha noooooo don't shoot the fragrances!!! I was the same with Dior Homme- didn't like it at first. It's the drydown that kills me. GOT to try your No.1. Fun video!
Also, have you tried gin and tonic alternatives? I doubt the quality matches L'Humaniste but I wear Adventure Quasar from time to time and I get great performance. It could be a nice alternative to L'Humaniste since it has that gin and tonic/rainforest fresh vibe to it.
My favorites change way too much but right now it's looking like: 1) Cool Water by Davidoff 2) Himalaya by Creed 3) Bleu de Chanel 4) La nuit De L'Homme by YSL 5) Green Irish Tweed by Creed
When you mentioned L'Humaniste's longevity, I thought of Acqua di Parma's Bergamotto di Calabria. It smells amazing, but has terrible longevity. I have to be pretty heavy on the trigger with that one.
i think your lists are real and the best but im from canada and i have not see where to purchase frapin and chambre noir any advise i purchased i love new york bond at the bay but most of the fragrance you have on your list well .........not to many choices up here thanks david
Jimmawang Basically its when somebody buys the bottle, and people split it a number of ways. So lets say a creed costs 100$. Somebody will buy the bottle, and then decant the bottle and divide it 4 ways for 25$ each. You don't get all of the juice but you can afford at least some (those are not actual calculations but the jist is the same)
dracdoc Please tell me a perfume which smells like only the brave and stays on the skin for atleast 12 hours. Or any summers (Daytime) perfume something similar to aqua di gio or only the brave or aventus, but something that lasts for atleast 12 hours. P.S I reside in UAE the whether here dosnt even let 1 million to stay on you for more than 6-8 hours MAX.
