I have to say, I zoned out of a great deal of your content a while back, mostly because I would come to you for the Orto Parisi reviews etc and I fell out of love with Gualtieri's stuff in general but I do admire your willingness to engage and you are very articulate and passionate about scent. Hats off!
I appreciate your response to that negative comment. I have felt the way the commenter has before, simply due to financial restraints; niche perfume is not cheap, and neither is it necessary - it is luxury, extra, etc. When we enjoy watching you sample full bottles of magnificent perfume week after week, it can irk some who wonder - what deals must be going on to make this affordable? I commend your business sense: to partner with Kevin, local perfume shops, using your travel and cinematography skills, organising trips and tours, as well as the regular quality content released regularly. I understand I can't justify financially buying niche perfumes larger than 1ml samples, but I can't be cross that you have organised your life around making it possible - as well as entertaining, educating and inspiring others :) your channel makes me want to try perfume and know what they smell like. Not just surface level, but repeated wearings, note taking etc. Keep up the good work :) The rest of us will have to work harder if we want to smell as good as you! Jason
Thank you Jason💫 I really enjoyed reading your comment....thank you for taking the time to share. Yes, to all the points that you addressed. I recognised early in the NFC journey that I had to partner with a retail store and show them that I can trade off my skill as a producer of content that differs from anything on TH-cam (within Fragcom) in exchange for the ability to access more fragrances.....and BOOM, I met Kevin and so many other things have exploded from this initial connection that it sometimes astounds me; to which I'm really grateful for🙏🏽 Thank you again for taking the time to jump in and share. Out of interest are you based in Europe? If yes, and if you can make it to Milan, would be awesome to connect in February. As mentioned we're planning to do a meet up on one of the nights; would love to catch up with you then🤔
I live in the North of England, in Leeds. We've got a Penhaligons shop I still need to visit ! Milan is unlikely - I am a humble high-school teacher with 4 kids, so solo luxury holidays are not for this stage of life. Maybe in a decade :)
Great to hear from you Jason! OK, so the challenges for me to go to London then😎 challenge accepted💫 We have our sights on the UK and all the beautiful fragrance houses that belong to your great nation… Give me about two years and I can see a fragrance tour happening there 🥳
Marcelo, thank you for the introductions! I admire your authenticity across the video, from how you came about receiving the bottles to pauses and dings of your own doing 😉 I am watching the video and noticed my handle has been captured incorrectly (KornuKopia not Cornapopia). No big deal but if I can trouble your amazing team to fix it, I will probably be less red-faced as I watch it flash on the screen in the future 😜
Good job Marcelo. I like the way you approached the comment. Happy for you that the France trip went so well, kudos to you and Kevin👍👍. Just picked up Bergamask and have Terroni next up from Orto Parisi.
Hi Marcelo, Great episode. Surprised to hear you get comments like that as I actually watch your channel more than other fragrance influencers because you do come across as more genuine. Its actually the reason yours is the only channel i've ever been a member of.
Mr NFC understand haters are going to hate. Sad people in sad places jealous of anyone's successes and happiness. You just do you. That's why over 103k people are here enjoying the ride. . Love it mate and keep em coming xx
Having finally met you, Mr Marcelo, yourself and Sandra are definitely amongst the most genuine individuals I’ve had the pleasure to meet! Kevin too! There’s no different side or hidden agenda or whatsoever which I really appreciate 🥹♥️🙏🏼 And also because you’ve been putting yourself out here on TH-cam for the world to judge, people would definitely have expectations or set certain boundaries esp if you’d one day meet the person that you’ve been interacting with online, onscreen etc. And sometimes of course, someone could be having a dull day and such which would warp the expectations and anticipation, with regards to the actual interaction when you finally meet people in the flesh. But yes I’d like to say, thank you for staying true to yourself and being genuinely who you are onscreen and offscreen! It’s such a blessing and I can’t wait to catch up again in February!! Yourself, Sandra, Kevin and the Team truly deserve all the success and goodness always! 💪🏼🔥♥️ I’ve never been prouder to be supporting this channel!
Could not care less if you were sponsored or gifted anything, your descriptions are clearly genuine. 🤷🏻♀️ Love your taste and your work, you made me discover lots of amazing fragrances!
Wonderful to hear from you Olena and so happy that you're enjoying the content on the channel....I always want to share from the heart things that I love with others to seek and test out for themselves. Greatly appreciate the support....thank you @olenaloboiko9204
Always enjoy the content and it is a touchy subject about integrity. Gifted bottles and collaborations with houses are a two edged sword. In one sense you can give more diversity of fragrances to the viewers but then some viewers will think it will make you disingenuous. I have not been gifted any bottles yet on my channel but I am starting to get offers. Nevertheless the way you describe the fragrances is poetic and I love the channel❤.
Since I have discovered your channel I am absolutely in love with the content. Such a wonderful work you do! I am very new to niche fragrances and listening to you is an absolute delight. It is a shame people take time out of their day to bring negativity. Thank you for the hard work you put behind all this, it is appreciate it ❤️❤️
Grazie Mille🙏🏽💫 What a wonderful comment to read and a massive THANK YOU for taking the time to share this with me @tinydreea8030 I'm so happy that the variety of content that's on the NFC channel resonates with you and YES!! as you can see I do love beautiful smells and I find that niche perfumery is such a beautiful olfactory art form that needs to be experienced for one self♥️ Welcome! It's awesome to have your company💫 Thank you again @tinydreea8030 for jumping into the conversation🙏🏽
Hi Marcelo,this is Stephanie from Chicago,it’s so nice to have u new video on this channel,u Always make my day,and……shrink my valet,cause every new fragrance that u bring in to video,my appetite getting bigger and bigger.Pls don’t pay attention for those who don’t appreciate what u doing and have so much hates and jealousy for u,we love u,and some day me and my husband definitely will meet u guys in Australia (Kevin too).
Wonderful to hear from you Stephanie; thank you for your words of encouragement and support....greatly appreciated💫🙏🏽 And YES! I look forward to meeting you and your husband when you come to Melbourne! We'll have to do an Oligarch catch up🥳
Hi Marcelo, I hope you're well. Good to hear the 1 day tour is now fully booked. I was seriously tempted but unfortunately it clashes with my winter holiday. I'm sure we'll meet one day, though. I'm testing out 3 new Aaron Terence Hughes fragrances that arrived today, namely Fever (new formulation), Loki and Morpheus. All 3 are exceptional and have me smiling, ear to ear. Oh, and keep being you. Some of us appreciate realness. I think that's why you connect with so many people. I enjoy how you talk about fragrance and your relationship to real life experiences, be it people and places.
Great to hear from you Sandy and yes, I know that our paths will cross one day👊🏽😎 I look forward to that day homie💫 I will eventually get onto the ATH fragrance's and would even love to film alongside him; I love his on screen persona Thanks for the support Sandy; greatly appreciate the words of encouragement🙏🏽
Thank you Katherine!! You're very kind🙏🏽. In truth, it is what it is....plus I've already found the love of my life🥰 and she thinks I'm stunning😬😂 Thanks again for reaching out and a MASSIVE THANK YOU for jumping into the LIVE the other day; I very much enjoyed this experience...thank you for taking the time to join me!👊🏽
My peeps, Marcelo is one of the most real and authentic individuals I have met! I agree that there are alot of people out there trying to pedal an angle. Marcelo you are awesome brother and keep doing what you do!!❤👊 great episode! 😊
Marcelo is a top man, ignore the negative comments, I’ve discovered many new fragrances/brands from watching you, i like the way he describes fragrances, over 100k subs says alot, one of the best on youtube 👍
I think its normal you get stuff, pr etc gifts, then you tell us what they smell like, we decide if it sounds interesting to sample or sniff and then get. You do it great ❤ Keep up the good work 😊
Loved reading your comment @TheCupatcake and yes, for me I love putting up suggestions/options for everyone to now test out for themselves and see if it also resonates with them personally...it's fun being "that guy" (the scout) who brings back things for others to try out and create opinions for themselves Thanks again for jumping into the conversation💫
Tell your son to move his fragrances if he's storing them in the bathroom cupboard. They age and spoil much faster because of the constant change of temperature from the shower
Love Perris. Those who think Santal 33 is the be all end all of sandalwood, get your nose on Santal du Pacifique by Perris Monte Carlo. What a gorgeous fragrance. I need Encens Sacré in my life, as an incense lover. :)
Totally agree with your comments Jonathan♥️ and yes, please check out Encens Sacre...but know that it's not what you expect. I'll be curious to hear your thoughts once you get the chance to test out Good to hear from you mate👊🏽
Shocked that you can even show that Sospiro, I would've assumed it was under embargo. I know there are 5 of them in those bottles coming FWIW. Edit: Those are 75mls from what I remember hearing.
YIKES!! I hope I haven't let the 'cat out the bag' on this! Before posting I did raise the question with Kevin and he seemed to think that it was ok (not that I'm blaming him if this goes south😂) Anyway, when you get the chance to test these out I'll be curious to hear you thoughts on them @DivineFrag....as always, good to hear from you mate👊🏽
I don't see why questioning someone's integrity is this big negative, as if this frag community doesn't have influencers that basically just recommend off of getting free bottles, I appreciate you taking the time to address it respectfully, as I sample fragrances I'm more suspicious of the TH-cam reviewers , because I honestly don't love all the decant fragrances I purchase, I enjoy your content style and structure, but I realize the true proof is in the wearing and subjective view of the individual. I cannot afford to sample everything and I'm sticking to my "Fab 5" for full bottle purchase after sampling.
I love that you have your due diligence by 'testing for yourself'....which is the best test of all. Thanks for jumping into the conversation Richard; I appreciate you lending your voice to this conversation👊🏽💫
That sad part is that not everyone 😔 is doing the stuff that other youtubers are doing for FAME , don't worry about those losers that can see good people from bad
I'm really sorry to hear that a number of challenges have beset you Carlito....it's never an easy moment for our soul and mind when these things happen to us, but I wish you a speedy return to fortunes and that things may become better for you Sending you positive vibes, prayers and best wishes Carlito 🙏🏽⚡️💪🏽
I love your videos and appreciate your opinions on fragrances, but that background music gets really irritating really fast. It's repetitive and unpleasant. Can you take it out for future videos please? Thanks!
Wonderful to hear from you Sophie and thanks for jumping into the conversation💫 I personally love the jazz track😍 Mate Talk is all about 'in the moment improv' and the track reflects this perfectly 🥰 Plus is provides a little of 'something' in the background when I stop to think (cleverly disguised as "let me have a small drink"😉) Thanks again for reaching out @Sophie-Emotion-Scented
I love the energy Marcelo and the little stories of yours connecting them with the scent. It is obvious that you speak from your heart and are very passionate. To be honest I stopped following/watching any other perfume reviewers on YT.
This whole thing was started by another TH-camr who doesn't understand that the crux of this platform is entertainment. People will like what they like, and always sample first
If a reviewer unwraps the plastic from a free bottle and immediately claims it is earth shattering and drops all sorts of panties, then I would agree that is entertainment, and rather questionable at that. I kinda prefer perfume content coming from the heart and understand people being sceptical seeing a reviewer for the first time. Which is by no means a good reason to piss in someone’s boot after seeing fore mentioned video. Thanks for being Marcello, frank. 😉
@gerardzonjee definitely agree with you about that. I like Marcelo's content because of his conversational style. People have biases, and it's up to the individual consuming the media to discern that
Great to hear from you Mike and yes, I agree with your take on this...this is 'entertainment'💫 And for me, it's a chance to deep dive not only with creators, perfumers and founders within the world of niche perfumery but I also get to dive in with the enthusiast and other perfume lovers (like me)....I get the best of both worlds, and I LOVE IT!!!!♥️ Awesome to connect homie👊🏽 thanks for jumping into the conversation💪🏽
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Your comprehensive videos are much welcomed with so many "fluff" pieces in FragTube. I understand that some folks get upset with misleading videos on fragrances, but I think people need to understand that perfume is a luxury. Fragrance houses are still a business and cutting marketing costs by using a TH-camr is a lot cheaper than paying the 10's of thousands of dollars for a whole marketing and PR department to sell a new fragrance For the price of a bottle, and a few hundred dollars, that latest release can reach half a million of a House's target audience and will sell more than going through traditional media while simultaneously saving costs. It's a win win for the business and the content creator. As a consumer, we just need to be a lot more skeptical with it
Encens Sacré is so underwhelming... Opening is interesting, but the dry down is just a boring overload of woody amber smelled 1000 times. Sad. Buio is not for me because I am not a fan of cade oil. But it's really good crafted, as dark has MF universe. It gives me some vibes of Corpus Equus but not as smoky.
This brought a sigh of sadness when I read your comment @franceiroca😓 I really love Encens Sacre. The fragrance took my by surprise on the opening and early stages of the evolution, but then delivered a gentle incense (that I was hoping to gain) on the drydown; the sillage it creates is wonderful....but alas not for you😢 And yes Buio is clearly 5 Star General or Supreme Leader territory.....it takes no prisoners!🤯 Thank you for jumping into the conversation and sharing your experience @franceiroca; I love hearing other experience's, brings balance to the conversation💫
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector I appreciated the opening of Encens Sacré but I just find the dry down meh. I have a hard time with the overtake of Woody amber in perfumery. I know, has our noses take habits, the quantity of new raw materials evolves with time. Taking example of the Hedione which was first time introduced in Eau Sauvage in little quantity and now is used sometimes in overdose. But problem with overdose of woody ambers, it that it literally take over the rest of the perfume, make it linear, over powerful and lacking of finesse. A bit is ok. It's kinda signature of masculine perfume of last 2000s but overusing make a perfume a disaster for the nostrils. Linking you a good article of Nez talking about that, you may have to translate because it's French, but being an perfume lover, it would be very interesting you discuss about the problem of woody ambers in modern perfumery here in TH-cam and for your community. mag.bynez.com/dossiers/transformer-les-discours-de-la-parfumerie/bois-ambres-linvasion-des-profanateurs-de-narines/
😩 I promise in time it will happen!!!! I'm happy to announce that these have finally landed in Australia and will GET ON IT!!! Give me at least another 6 months and Boom Baby💫🤩 Thanks for keeping me on task @user-dj1dg3sp6o 😉
I have to say, I zoned out of a great deal of your content a while back, mostly because I would come to you for the Orto Parisi reviews etc and I fell out of love with Gualtieri's stuff in general but I do admire your willingness to engage and you are very articulate and passionate about scent.

I really love Meo Fusciuni, Buio is totally on my list.
You're going to love it Daniele....a person of your taste and style, you'll 'get' what is going on with this masterpiece🖤
I think its normal you get stuff, pr etc gifts, then you tell us what they smell like, we decide if it sounds interesting to sample or sniff and then get. You do it great ❤ Keep up the good work 😊
Loved reading your comment @TheCupatcake and yes, for me I love putting up suggestions/options for everyone to now test out for themselves and see if it also resonates with them personally...it's fun being "that guy" (the scout) who brings back things for others to try out and create opinions for themselves

Hope to get on one of these tours one day sounds like a vibe.
Boom Baby!!!🥳💫 Would be awesome to host you one day @raycham7598....and YES! I can attest that they're a lot of fun🤩
It’s “fortunately what nature gave me.” No “unfortunate” about it 😁. Love your channel. 🙏🏽🌻

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Your comprehensive videos are much welcomed with so many "fluff" pieces in FragTube. I understand that some folks get upset with misleading videos on fragrances, but I think people need to understand that perfume is a luxury. Fragrance houses are still a business and cutting marketing costs by using a TH-camr is a lot cheaper than paying the 10's of thousands of dollars for a whole marketing and PR department to sell a new fragrance
For the price of a bottle, and a few hundred dollars, that latest release can reach half a million of a House's target audience and will sell more than going through traditional media while simultaneously saving costs. It's a win win for the business and the content creator. As a consumer, we just need to be a lot more skeptical with it
Encens Sacré is so underwhelming... Opening is interesting, but the dry down is just a boring overload of woody amber smelled 1000 times. Sad. Buio is not for me because I am not a fan of cade oil. But it's really good crafted, as dark has MF universe. It gives me some vibes of Corpus Equus but not as smoky.
This brought a sigh of sadness when I read your comment @franceiroca😓 I really love Encens Sacre. The fragrance took my by surprise on the opening and early stages of the evolution, but then delivered a gentle incense (that I was hoping to gain) on the drydown; the sillage it creates is wonderful....but alas not for you😢
And yes Buio is clearly 5 Star General or Supreme Leader territory.....it takes no prisoners!🤯
Thank you for jumping into the conversation and sharing your experience @franceiroca; I love hearing other experience's, brings balance to the conversation💫
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector I appreciated the opening of Encens Sacré but I just find the dry down meh.
I have a hard time with the overtake of Woody amber in perfumery.
I know, has our noses take habits, the quantity of new raw materials evolves with time. Taking example of the Hedione which was first time introduced in Eau Sauvage in little quantity and now is used sometimes in overdose.
But problem with overdose of woody ambers, it that it literally take over the rest of the perfume, make it linear, over powerful and lacking of finesse.
A bit is ok. It's kinda signature of masculine perfume of last 2000s but overusing make a perfume a disaster for the nostrils.
Linking you a good article of Nez talking about that, you may have to translate because it's French, but being an perfume lover, it would be very interesting you discuss about the problem of woody ambers in modern perfumery here in TH-cam and for your community.
