Yeah Encre Noire is such a special case, off the top like in the air it smells like my grandmas house cuz of the woodsy type of smell that older peoples houses just have, but on me it smells totally different and ive gotten even the question if theres pheromones in there cuz it smells so good
These are always so wholesome. Properly set up and filmed in a relaxed atmosphere. Seemingly endless supply of telegenic participants who do all the talking, no presenter shouting leading questions at them. Reactions may be edited or juxtaposed for comedic effect (e.g., 2:40) but never to embarrass anyone, instead everyone's made to look like a naturally funny and sweet person. Worthwhile content like this is far too rare in the 2022 RU-vid fragrance scene.
I LOVE Encre Noire, but I've always known others don't - it's a scent I wear for me and only me. It's comforting, interesting & always puts me in a good mood!
I have Encre Noire a l'extreme and it is very definitely an acquired taste. I love it, but it is very niche in style, and certainly not something for the 'amateur'.
Yep, I wear a few "polarising" scents at times... Amouage Figment and Terenzi Ursa are two of my all-time faves, but they most definitely are _NOT_ mass-appealing. :) Like you said, they make _me_ feel good. I don't tend (or try not) to base my frag purchases on what others might think.
I smelled it once and it was so plain and boring but maybe I didn’t smell it long enough to appreciate it. Ultramale should have won this one but it was given the bad spot of going first and no one ever wants to pick the first one.
@@briansilva4165 I have Ultra male & get a lot of compliments from girls and men. Would recommend since it projects decent enough to be smelled and lasts about 4/6 hours and if you spray it on your shirt it stays even longer
Honestly I smelled Dylan Blue and I think its not bad but it's kinda basic and I feel like I have smelled it on alot of other people, it's not bad tho, a safe fragrance.
These videos are great bc they reflect reality: Average ordinary girls have no clue and can only say "like" or do not like". There is no such thing as compliment getters, women going crazy over fragrances etc. Just RU-vid clickbait. Thanks for doing this Teddy! Also blind bought Akro Awake bc of you.
Right? So basic and uneducated and withdawn with the whole craft altogether- All of them either hate it or they 'don't mind it' . So blazay! They cant even properly decipher notes or speak anywhere close to the language of fragrance. Profumo smells like a grape sucker- what? Its clearly root beer/ chocolate powdered doughnuts. Zero grape. and to think these are the people we are obsessed with impressing. Women don't even like fragrances - unless they 'ask' for a fragrance - bath and body candle shopping ect. Women are so sensitive and finicky especially as they get older in office environments. Is it the hormones? At this point would rather impress other men who are trying to ace the perfect fragrance. I feel men have more mastered noses uninterrupted to oversensitivity and hormonal moods. Women are the first to be offended you smell like their grandpa where as a man would be impressed you smell like their grandpa- that legacy hierarchy I am john Richard the III mentality. Like how complimentary you smell like my masculine male ancestor- I am trying to be the same mentality.
I don't agree with that I get compliments from complete strangers hear compliments when I walk by and plenty of questions and compliments from people I know
@@guillermoalto4803 right? They are not knowledgeable. Woman like these are annoying to me. Their opinions do not offer any technical standpoint. It is just gibberish garbage.
She keeps it real. Doesn't give you pseudo-intellectual pompous adjectives. I kinda like that she gives us images in her head and a little bit of anecdotes here and there.
Dylan Blue for the win was not a surprise to me. A good clean fresh scent will always smell great to anyone. Not challenging by any means, just a nice scent.
Tressa has quite the fan club on this channel. Well deserved. Stella is close behind. Please have her back. Ashley is kinda dreamy and also has a good nose and taste.
I have the first four, (and the EDP of the fifth) and I'm not surprised about the results. Encre Noire is NOT for everyone, while Dylan Blue is easy to use for damn near anyone! Also, Tressa is back!
The reaction to Profumo Armani shocked me that thing smells nothing like how they described which is weird definitely one of my most complimented fragrance is warm and inviting definitely a cuddle fragrance
Why is it shocking? i've been telling people for a long time that girls hate armani code only dumb youtubers that hype it up tell you girls love it. They're wrong, very wrong. Code profumo and code absolu will get you no girls. They hate it. Jeremy fragrance, gents scents, curly fragrance and everyone else that hypes up armani code don't believe what they say girls don't like it
Would love to see - D&G light blue eau intense, Dylan blue, CDNIM, MB legend spirit, Armaf sillage, Burberry touch ( on the similar price range) and please bring back the blonde leather jacket girl 😄
2:11 This women knows her stuff! I loved it when she called Mont Blank Legend Abercrombie and Fitch right away :D I want her to test everything and whatever she doesn't like I'm not buying either
She’s a hit or miss cause there’s been times where she would describe a scent very wrong, and example in one video is when she reviewed azzaro wanted by night and described it as very strong alcohol scent or chemical smell and very synthetic which a lot of people disagreed with
@@LoLeQ88 would very much disagree with, gotten lots of compliments on it and gives off a woody, cinnamon scent with no where near an alcohol smell or of that, that smells synthetic
Always have a great mix of ladies' opinions on men's fragrances. Ever thought about getting viewer suggestions on scents for them to smell? I'm sure enough of the community would like to see their reactions to favorites! Great content as always!
Nice soundtrack, I pictured being at downtown east LA mall on a nice cool spring blue sky day walking hand in hand with the hot cool chick lexie, talking and making plans for the next comic con.
Always look forward to yall’s Sunday videos. Definitely agree on Dylan Blue being a great (AND CHEAP!) scent. I blind bought Bleu De Chanel and I wish I took time to smell it first, because Dylan Blue is WAY better.
the entire fragrance community would heavily disagree with you. Bleu de Chanel is hands over fist better than Dylan Blue which is a synthetic fresh scent
Yessir. Dylan blue's been my go to, and (Most complimented by far) cologne I have. And i have (And wear most of them a hefty amount) sauvage, blue de channel, eros, explorer, light blue intense and others.
Idea for a video... Have your guests pick and choose their top 5 favorite fragrances from your collection, give them the notes to their choices and have them comment on each of them
I've come to also notice while a lot of fragrances may not get a verbal compliment it definitely does affect women when they're around you. Obviously telling a complete stranger they smell good is not a common thing but a lot of us have stood or walked by someone and thought wow they smell good. Even when in a conversation with a co-worker or other person we also may notice they smell nice and think highly of them or not so good if their scent is unappealing. I mean I was just in the mall last weekend and some girl ahead of me on the escalator smelled nice and I thought in my head : "Oh whoever is wearing that smells nice".
Truth right there. I always wear cologne, but I’m working in a fairly conservative country, so I never, ever expect to get compliments from women. However, more than a few times when in elevators with mirrored panels, I see them trying to figure out who smells good.
I really love your videos. And new girls did a great job reviewing given fragrances. Their reaction, again, proves tastes differ and that if one might like one fragrance the other person might hate it
I love blondies girls t shirt! Scarface's frag at that movie was langerfeld classic! It could be easily of course and lalique encre noir, so classy, like vintage dominant frag!
I bought a knock off YSL Y which swapped the apple top note with Pineapple, honestly to me it's a nice move, staying close to the og but not afraid to go off the wall.
Lady with glasses was killing me with the off scent profiles. Dylan blue is “sweaty”??? It is literally one of the sweetest fragrances in my collection. Armani Code Profumo “citrusy”, good god it is powdery with the iris NOT giving a citrus note.
I feel like Jim from some of the other videos, and Tessa (also from some of the other videos) are related. Easily the two best participants for entertainment value.
Its back!!! Thanks. Most of my fragrance recommendations were included. Waiting for Moschino Toy Boy, D&G K, Versace Blue Jeans, Eclat D Arpege Lanvin, DHI, Instant Crush Thanks
Its funny to see how these beautiful young ladies react to different men's fragrances, but I think its hard to tell from a tester strip, even with the opening and dry down. The only true way to tell is off skin. And even then it depends on skin chemistry. Some of the Chanel fragrances smell beautiful off tester strips but on my skin smell akin to q mild vinegar because there is obviously an ingredient used in Chanel fragrances that does not suit my skin chemistry.
I really enjoy these videos, it shows how a variety of people react and more than anything shows how subjective fragrances are. Always play to your own preferences when buying but if you want compliments, these videos will help you decipher different crowds, I’d like to see older and more ethnic people in future iterations as well, having a bigger variety of people to give an opinion
Tressa is a walking red flag in all the good ways. She is the woman i usually fall in love with but i know she is bad news on the long run. But i imagine she is so fun to hang out with.
Abercrombie fierce is the only cologne I've ever worn that a girl grabbed me and asked what i was wearing. One of the extremely attractive twins i was i school with and only knew in passing.
This kinda tells you all you need to know. If you want to impress, even cheap, fresh scents can pull it off. If you like perfumes, maybe stick to more complicated ones.
lesson: everyone has their own preferences when it comes to what smells good. also most ppl dont rly know how to describe scents and it just ends up sounding a lot worse than it actually is. there are different levels of certification that you can get for becoming a wine expert and the highest level requires you to blind taste test multiple different wines and identify the ingredients used and where the wine originates from. not sure if there is something like that for smelling cologne or perfume but i assume there is. its like asking me to describe a red wine; i'd have no idea if its a cabernet or merlot or whatever the fuck and i most certainly wouldnt be able to tell you if there are hints of oak or cherry.
Guys Dylan BLUE IS BLIND BUY WORTHY. Any young guy looking for a fragrance that will attract chicks and can also be worn to work uni or going out on a date. And it is inoffensive. Its very fresh and clean but what separates it from other fresh and clean fragrances is that it is musky and manly and has ambroxan too in it so it lasts!
My sense of smell is very acute and I can’t stand wearing any scent at all. I prefer unscented deodorant and soap. I tried wearing Hermes pour Homme after I got some as a gift: that was too strong. I’ve tried bay rum: too much. Tried 4711 Kölnisch Wasser: a dab on my handkerchief is okay but that’s about all. Forget it. I hope that my natural scent and my usual soap aren’t too bad.
People might hate Encre Noire, but the "sport" version is a bit easy to wear and is smoother. It truly has a character of its own despite being a cheapie and can be pulled off by any age, but it doesn't suit everyone.
