    Platinum Egoiste is such a great scent, it has so much nuance. One spray and it starts with this sporty, fresh scent, then the dry down is this warm citrus/woody smell. I cannot tell you how many times I have received comments on it. I agree with you it's any time everyday wearable scent--great picks!

    Yah, most are summer frags or ones that tend to do better in the winter. It's easier in general to be smelled in the summer than winter (heat, less layers of clothes, more situations to smell) So it doesn't surprise me now that I look back on it.

    Ah good point about suites. I'm glad you mentioned that during your review. Presenting oneself well really makes the difference.

    Dradoc you are so right on designer getting waaaaayyyyyy more compliments than the niche. Hiro once said that Play Intense was one of his most complimented fall/winter frags over any niche that he owned. And for Spring/Summer, Versace Eau Fraiche is king with the ladies, over any thing niche I own for the same seasons. What's up with that, do you think?

    This was a great video my friend, I just want to say as a 43 year old man your the 1st person I’ve ever seen in TH-cam who actually acknowledges the fact that what you wear affects how people perceive your fragrances👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼,
    a woman I know said a guy walked into her store wearing a t shirt and sweat pants but he was wearing TV, she acknowledged how good he smelled but subconsciously knew it didn’t go with his look at that time.
    It’s all relative guys.

    Excellent Video. I was a bit surprised that there were no TM's on the list. I get comments/complements on A*men and Pure Havane all the time. Well maybe not all the time...but from time to time anyway.;)
    But differnt skin types...different situations...weather. All these things can make a difference on how a fragrance plays off of our skin.
    Thanks for the video.

I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong such as putting to much or using some at the wrong time of the year but anyways I can sure use some help to get compliments thanks Cody.

  • @dracdoc
    @dracdoc  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think its more because its something they are not expecting per say. The best comparison would be a construction worker. If you saw a construction worker after a hard days work.. the last thing you would expect is for him to smell like flowers. Flowers is not a bad smell, but it would catch you off guard and wouldn't "fit". I'm venturing the same thing happens with DHI. I smell it and think sexy and a certain image pops into my head

Do you think there's any reason why DHI doesn't do as well in other settings, does it lead back to people thinking it is 'sexy' rather than nice and it would be inappropriate to say 'sexy' in casual situations or at work?

    Well.. assuming you are applying the same amount.. its probably because you have gotten used to the smell. There is a possibility that you have lost some scent ability, but lets stay on the optomistic side.

Well except for your number one cologne which i have not smelled but based on your choices it seems to be like a fragrance made from heaven, so I order it and i am trusting you on this one...lol anyhow great video..... thumps up all the way... :)
