@@Pinerocks Thanks. They do have great products but they are not the only reason why my beard looks the way it does. If you e ever grown one or have one now then you know how much effort it takes to maintain it. I just don’t want people to be naive and think all they have to do is purchase beard oils.

@@mikewhite8848 I get what you’re saying and I understand it’s discontinued and people get excited about that word but for me based on what you could find Prive for in the rack store previously which was far less that $100 for a 100ml, $100 for me now is insane. You use to be able to find it between $59 to $79. Just my person opinion though.

@@thefragrantlife14 yeah, I seen it go for $400 at Amazon.

@@mikewhite8848 Your comment is so far from the truth but I understand what you’re trying to say. With all the technology we have today and people will still be lazy and not look for information. Case and point the story I told in this video about my experience happened six or seven years ago and I had a smart phone. People just don’t expect to be taken advantage of and sometimes are just too trusting but some of us do wise up quickly as I did after I found out and started showing the guy the online prices. He then proceeded to say that the fragrances I showed him were all possibly fake 🤣. Basically saying his store is the only store that sells real fragrances. Also this store has no women it was just him. Plus people still get scammed even with a smartphone or any device. Fakes and dupes are passing inspections now and even StockX is being sued because of how many fake Jordan’s are passing through their screening process.

@thefragrantlife14 believe me it happened to me too, I went the next day and returned 2 fragrances back to them Luna Rosa black 100mill, $130 and I forgot the other fragrance name it was niché, they charged $300, I found rossa black for $90 and the other for $60 , and they also added a $30 "mall fee" and another fee to process my payment. It was crazy. People are lazy and don't know how to use Google.

@@charliephillips9224 Facts. And I have one by ALT Fragrances that I found at TJ Maxx for $20.

All facts. My personal experience with that in this video was from like six years ago but since then I don’t buy any bottles unless I sample first if possible.

🤣 yea it’s ridiculous out here

@@Fokused06 Facts

@@lynnwhyjae Facts but the dude in our mall when I showed him the prices on other sites he then claimed that they were all fake 🤣. So you’re telling me that your store is oddly the only store in the world that sells authentic fragrances.

@@thefragrantlife14 dang, they standing on business. 🤣🤣🤣

@lynnwhyjae Facts

@@realeyesrealizereallies2540 Not bad but in this case people on eBay are trying to get over.

@@Gullymane-x4x It’s really not bad for $10. I really enjoy it and I’ve talked about it over and over in my earlier videos.

@@Fragrance-Fam Sean John 3AM is 🔥. We all make mistakes but the most important thing is learning from it and not making the same mistakes again. We are human though. Also, I see that all the time how people think just because something is discontinued doesn’t mean the price should go up right away if at all. Most discontinued fragrances don’t skyrocket especially if it’s not that popular and 3AM is one that shouldn’t even though I like it.

@thefragrantlife14 I like it a lot too. It's just so fresh and makes me feel 10 years younger when I wear it! LOL I agree, even though 3am is a great fragrance, these current prices are ridiculous. I enjoyed the video.

@ Thanks i appreciate you

@@user-ex4pe7ly8i Yea for the first time in a long time. It’s usually dead with the same old ten fragrances.

@@LIL-MAN_theOG I was informed that what I thought were Maison Margella frags were actually candles. I went back through my video and paused it and they were right. I wish they the actual fragrances though.

@@evensbaptiste6415 Unless you find them on sites like Mercari where sometimes people will sell cheap just to move them. I bought one on there for a great price and well below $100. And yes I know, there are people who don’t trust Mercari or other sites like that. But to each his own.

@@CheckTheseRopes Exactly but the key words were back when I first started my channel and collection six years ago. I wasn’t always a frag head you know. And there is a learning curve to everything. I didn’t know anything about clone houses and when I started that wasn’t even a huge thing yet like it is now. My mistakes can also be a learning experience for someone else who doesn’t know to look elsewhere and don’t just buy the first thing you see.

@@Mr.Cologne I appreciate you stopping by.

@@Tikimohn Sometimes you can depending on where you look. On Mercari you can probably find someone selling their bottle of it for the low. Sometimes a full bottle and sometimes a partial for even cheaper. I was selling off a ton of my fragrances on there a while back and made pretty good money and I’ve bought a ton before I sold them on there also. You just have to look and be careful.

@@PRODbyKingDavis Facts

@@dasherorganix5306 Facts. After I figured it out he could never sell me anything 🤣. I would go in there and smell things and buy somewhere else for cheaper. One time I showed him the online prices of the same stuff he sold in his store and how much more affordable they were he told me they were probably fake. Oh so your store is the only store that sells real fragrances 🤣 ok my guy

@@traindawg21 Yea that’s how I am now. I play dumb up until they start trying to tell me things and I correct them or show them I know more than they thought I did. My girlfriend just laughs cuz she knows what I’m doing.

Unfortunately most of them doesn’t know anything about fragrances. They just want to sell. It’s better buy niche fragrances from small brands.

@ I totally agree. It’s all about making a sale, mostly off of people like myself in the past that didn’t know any better. Once I learned I refused to overpay for anything much less a fragrance. And yes I get it, the hard work and ingredients and planning along with materials they use to make these fragrances but for some of us all we want to do is simply smell good without paying those over inflated prices.

@@thefragrantlife14 I made several mistakes buying expensive perfumes, but now that I understand more about fragrances I do a lot of research before buying something. I buy most of them online.

I know exactly what u mean, I went into one of those Perfumania spots in the mall, saw a bottle of Armaf Club de Nuit Intense, asked the seller behind the counter how much it was, he said $80...🤣🤣🤣, imagine paying $80 for a fragrance that u already know is a $25 - $30 fragrance on line...🤦🏿‍♂️. Whenever I go into those types of stores while I'm in the mall, I never go with the intentions of buying anything, only to smell stuff to see what I might purchase online

@@fmfdocbotl4358 🤣 All Facts. After my experience I started doing this also. I’d find something at the rack stores then run to Ulta beauty, smell it if they have it then if I want it I’d go back to the rack store and get it. I started showing the guy in the mall the prices online and he would say it’s probably fake. So what he telling me is that every other place besides his store sells fakes 🤣. Ok sir

@@tyga7891 I would have done more than laughed at $80 for joop.

@@batphink2655 Nothing wrong with growth and knowing. And yea I’m still working on getting everything where it needs to be with sound and video quality. It’s a work in progress. I have a new sound board coming in the next few days cuz the one I have has been acting up.

@@timyoung4039 Yea that’s highway robbery. I remember when I first found out about Armaf six years ago they were between $25 to $40. The price gouging is insane.

@@timyoung4039 I’m not that far from Myrtle beach. I live in Brunswick Ga.

Armaf untold is currently $49 online on jomashop 😂

@@jayjohnson4000 Yea I started showing him the prices online and in other stores and he swore they all were fakes except his 🤣

@@ucantfixstupid7443 Thanks. Glad to be back.

@@RodT87 Yea I feel you

@@ezaustin9922Knowledge is definitely key. We live and we learn.

@@PeachesAndCream-y5k 🤣 Even three for $90 is insane. Depending on which ones they are most are between $10 to $20 for the cheapies.

@@breauxsense6829 Well like I said in the video this was five or six years ago for me and I knew absolutely nothing about rack stores or even online sites. I was never a huge frag head in my younger years and didn’t know anything beyond the cheap stuff my mother use to buy me for Christmas and my birthday. Once I jumped into the deep end I had to learn the hard way. Never again though.

@@PeachesAndCream-y5k 🤣 now isn’t having knowledge great. I was just telling someone else here that I told the guy in my mall was selling fragrances like Nautica voyage and other fragrances in that vein for like $50 and up and I showed him the websites and how Ross and Tj Maxx sells the same ones for $20 and he proceeded to say they were all fakes 🤣. So every other store or website sells fakes except you my guy.

@@artstudent1237 All facts. It’s sad that I was guilty of falling for this before but I wished up quickly after that. He couldn’t get me to even think about buying from any of those stores ever again.

@@Chefjoe63 Facts 🤣. I remember our store closed down then reopened months later across from where they were before and I was in there just chopping it up with the owner and my cousin walked in. He knew I did reviews and was asking me what was good and he eventually chose Nautica Voyage but I stopped him and told him man Tj Maxx is right across the street. You can get Nautica Voyage there for like $20 compared to buying it there for $80.

@@scotom It’s pathetic. I like the guy who runs the shop in my local mall and I understand that this is a business first but your customers should still come first when it comes to them spending their money with you. I remember once I showed the owner of the shop in our mall how much I could get a fragrance he was selling at a higher price for elsewhere and he said that one has to be fake 🤣. How Sway!!! So he telling me that every other place outside of his store is selling fakes 🤣.

@@scentualobsessions It’s sad but true. I hear and see reviewers all the time talk about these stores and how they spent so much money on these fragrances not realizing that you can find them elsewhere for cheaper. True, like I said it’s their money and they can buy whatever they want but to have someone get over on you and you just accepting it is not ok.

They should’ve looked it up before they bought it ..everybody knows RETAIL prices at these stores are primarily set prices 😂😂

@ What you’re forgetting is that everybody is green until they go through something to learn. So you’re telling me that you are perfect at everything and never had learning curves. I just turned 47 on the tenth and as long as I’ve been alive there has never been a day that I haven’t learned something even if it was insignificant to me.

@@robertfreeman1673 the thing is, though the business and sales people should have been honest upfront, but instead, when you jack your prices up like that and lied to your customers, that’s a shady business practice, and you should not do that to anybody the point of making a sale isn’t to sell somebody something it’s to help them find what they’re looking for and fix their problem. When I have a customer asking me about a Fragrance I give them my honest opinion if I think it’s good or not and how close it is to the original and the performance that I get from it because in the end, I’m not just trying to sell somebody a fragrance, but I’m trying to sell somebody a fragrance for what they are looking for that fits them and not just trying to take their money

@@thefragrantlife14 this man talkin abt perfection it ain’t that deep bruh …😂

@@bashawnjohnson That’s what’s up. It’s funny because during the making of this video I tried to look the prices up for them and sadly the prices have went down considerably. I believe Walmart online and some other place had them for like twenty something dollars now.

@thefragrantlife14 oh wow!

@@bashawnjohnson Facts

@@mister-xv5in No arguments from me. I had started transitioning into niche but I only found the best deals possible and if I didn’t I just found decants. Now I’m over it and I’m just sticking with what I have, sold off a ton of my collection and when I use something up I’ll look into something else but no more super expensive purchases.

@thefragrantlife14 yes sir that makes sense
