    I regret buying Jean Paul Gaultiers - Le Male because halfway thru the bottle I found out about Cuba Gold which I find that it last alot longer throughout the day and is one third the cost. I bought Cuba Gold at a fragrance store in the mall and got two 100ml bottles for the price of one for something like $12.00. The bottles lasted me like 2-3 years. Anytime I cant decide which fragrance to wear to an event, work or just hanging out Cuba Gold usually is my default fragrance to wear. In my opinion its that versatile.
    PS, everytime i wear it when I go to get a haircut my barber thinks im wearing Jean Paul Gaultiers - Le Male because that's what he wears.

    I regret buying the 6.7 oz of One Million. That cologne is too powerful, and there is NO WAY IN HELL that i'm going to use it that much.

    @AGentlemansJourney77 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    There was some good frags in there. If you want to sell that Bond then I'd be curious to know how much you'd ask for it.Just PM if you're looking to rid it. Thanks Cody.

    Givenchy Play intense...recent purchase from a store. Either a reformulation or a fake. The bottle and box have no arrows but both the bottle and box seem pretty legit otherwise so I assumed its a new design. The scent disappears in 10 mins and comes nowhere close to the glowing description given by several reviewers in either type of coffee based scent and of course performance. A real waste of money. Anyone else had this experience with Play Intense?

    @stelios413 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Off the top of my head.
    Chanel Egoiste
    Clinique Happy
    Hugo Boss Orange - Summer Feels Good
    Pure Shot
    Mont Blanc Legend Intense
    Insurrection Dark
    and a few others, which I don't care to remember.

    Oddly enough, I regret purchasing YSL's "La Nuit de L'homme" the most. The cardamom note is quite intense, and it doesn't mesh well with my body chemistry at all. The reason this is my most regretted purchase is primarily because of the hype it receives from within the community. I expected to be blown away and absolutely love it, and I just don't. My wife really dislikes the scent as well. Don't get me wrong. It's not a bad fragrance. It just doesn't "wow" me at all the way it seems to most people.

    • @robertarmstrong6015
      @robertarmstrong6015 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      I had the exact same view of La nuit initially but I must admit that it has grown on me. La nuit has an unpredictable dry down. Sometimes its very ordinary....other times a very pleasant gourmand type effect. I guess body chemistry can differ given different circumstances....perhaps internal and external factors. It makes the fragrance that much more interesting.

    • @moussaharouna8538
      @moussaharouna8538 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      My feelings exactly. It is my least worn perfume. Blind bought it because of the hype but, I am not a fan of the smell at all.

  • @Eroge.Bebita
    @Eroge.Bebita 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    I regret purchasing Chanel Edition Blanche because some months ago I got Terre D'Hermes Eau Tres Fraiche. I used Edition Blanche for really hot weather and also have L'homme Libre for not so much hot days, but I find TdH to like more than Edition Blanche for that purposes.

  • @hyperwarrior908
    @hyperwarrior908 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I regret purchasing Drakkar Noir. The projection is very weak on my skin after an hour and I start to wonder if I have a fake one...

  • @purpledc1
    @purpledc1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    damn man. I had the same thoughts on Taste of fragrance. To me it just smelled like actual chili powder in chili. Not the actual smell of the actual pepper. But then that completely dies off and its more berry like. Have you been able to get a full wearing out of it? Its kinda like a musc ravageur/Linstant d' guerlain thing where the opening sucks but then becomes great. Just dont get it on your clothes or the chili sticks.

  • @KarmaBeats151
    @KarmaBeats151 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Went thru a lot of trouble finding original formulation of express reserve for men at a reasonable price. I wasn't really impressed at all. It's not bad but I still could definitely live without it. Good list Doc! Another fantastic video. SOTD Montale Intense Café.

  • @ismellsogood4116
    @ismellsogood4116 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    @MrVernon437 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vid Cody. One frag I regret buying is Bergamote 22. I like the frag but it only works for real hot weather. It's not versatile enough for me.

  • @azshops
    @azshops 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I regret buying ck euphoria. Smelled so good when I tested it out, only to later discover that the initial smell quickly goes away and the scent completely disappears from your skin. Extremely watered down.

  • @M.ochirecords
    @M.ochirecords 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Scents I regret purchasing
    Claiborne Sport (blind buy)
    Grey Flannel
    Lacoste Booster even though ppl gave me compliments it smelled funny to me

    • @Grandmaster_Sub-Zero
      @Grandmaster_Sub-Zero 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used to rock Claiborne sport religiously back when I was a young teen(about 13). I loved that fragrance. Now about 15 years later, I recently came across it at a small perfume shop and took a sniff for nostalgic purposes. I laughed because it brings back memories, but now that my nose has matured, I realized how much of a synthetic mess it is. Good times

    @Prochillah90 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This video was a great idea Cody. I regret purchasing Aventus at retail price. It's worthy of the hype and when I smelled it, I just had to have it

  • @invaderlark
    @invaderlark 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I regret purchasing an A*Men Gift set on ebay for 40 bucks. The juice, the deodorant, and the shampoo had expired and as a consequence smelled terrible. My first tip off should've been that the star wasn't blue but was green. Another bad purchase was Bogart Pour Homme but not because it smells bad but because it's really cloying, linear, and way too loud.

  • @theswillz3456

  • @YippeeKiYay76
    @YippeeKiYay76 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    'I'm too lazy to get to the post office'. Good luck selling those fragrances ;). One that I regret is Dior Homme, basically because I love DHI so much that whenever I wear the original, it just feels like something is missing. I'll always reach for DHI over it even for work and just use less sprays.

    @raamannair4272 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hai Cody, you are not the only one to complain about your Frapin 1270 leaking. Many people who buy Frapin products(1270, L'Humaniste,etc) has the same issue of the juice oozing out. I recommend you take precautions when buying them.

    • @dracdoc
      @dracdoc  11 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yah.. other people have said the same thing. My L'Humaniste bottle happens to be fine though

  • @jdotrillah
    @jdotrillah 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Out of my first 10 bottles I kept DHI, the frags that got chopped and sold (paid hiked up French prices for all of them) One Million, Pure Malt, DG The One, 50ml decant of Aventus that I believe was actually Half Fresco, Tuacan Leather, Le male, Chergui, in sure a few others

  • @PhreaSpirit
    @PhreaSpirit 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Almost the same story, I liked Diesel Fuel for Life Spirit in store, bought it, but the next day I hated it:) So I sold it. This is probably the only time I did regret my fragrance purchase lol. Thanks for the video!

  • @theLupeXperience
    @theLupeXperience 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vid Cody, my regrets include Ambra Medtareneo (i smelled it briefly and by the time i bought a 100ml I realised it has nothing on my fave Amer based scent), XJ Uden 100ml from Sweden (got lost in the mail!). Cheers

      @dracdoc  11 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you sir! Although I will say right off the bat that in terms of creativity it doesn't hold a candle to your worst video. I've always thought you are the most creative person in the frag community (gotta love Captain Cologne!)

  • @djmontyforyou
    @djmontyforyou 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vid cody!!!! My frag regrets: halston z-14(I hate that scent!!!!!). Kanon wood(it smells like a diaper). Marc Jacobs for Men(I throught I would like it but I dont like the wierd Fig note in it). Burberry touch(I love the frag just should have gotten a smaller bottle or a decant of it)

  • @joserauldino
    @joserauldino 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Cody! What the heck? I have Frapin 1270 and my only regret is that for what I paid, 1270 longevity is an issue. I have no bottle issues with mine. This stuff is awesome! As for comments on a few of your other regrets:
    - Diesel Fuel for Life - Yup, I agree, not my style either
    - Pure Shot (hate it)
    - Pure Chili (hate it)
    I don't mind YSL L'homme Parfum....it's not a bad fragrance. It does have a '1 Million ' or "Spicebomb' vibe that doesnt really fit my style, but for some reason I kind of like it.
    Anyways - great video

    @GenjiSleepsowo 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mine was Dior Sauvage. A couple times when I went to Ulta finding new fragrances I smelled Sauvage the first few times I didnt tend to like it much but after that I grown attached to it so I bought it. But once I started wearing it I thougt it was too mature for me. So I gave it to my uncle.

    @Liserion 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I bought Chanel Allure edition Blanche and I barely wear it because it is just not staying well on my skin. Should have bought Bleu de Chanel. Still gna keep wearing it tho :)

  • @root9065
    @root9065 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video Cody, here's my list of regretful purchases:
    - Gucci Guilty - Below average quality and I'm not the type.
    - CK Euphoria Intense - Generic, not challenging enough, not worth the price.
    - D&G Pour Homme (3rd reformulation) - Synthetic garbage.
    - Tommy Hilfiger Sport - Pretty self-explanatory.
    - Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin - Makes me think of a fairy tale when I spray it. Sort of what would Price Charming wear. The quality is there though. Mindblowing quality for the price. I prefer Body Kouros which is what a Greek God would wear (Notice the contrast).
    - Dior Fahrenheit Absolute - Yes, no match to the original Fahrenheit and not to mention I don't go to church, so I'd like to keep it mutual. Still, it's a Dior and the quality is 10/10 so, maybe I'll change my mind in the future (not about the church).
    - YSL Opium - Smells dated and it gives me a Chamomile vibe, which I have really bad childhood memories with. I know there's no Chamomile in the notes but that's just how it makes me feel. Maybe when I turn 40 this will turn into a gold mine… or $100 water.
    - Armani Code Ultimate - Too strong and I'd rather have the legend that the original is. I don't know what I was thinking when I bought it.
    So… Yeah.

    I use to love this fragrance alot until i started working in los angeles. Azzaro Chrome. Everywhere you go you smell a Latin person with this cologne on. I went to my local Ross and saw that the fragrance rack is loaded with them. 100ml bottle for like 15 bucks. So this one i let go and regret buying.

    Awesome video bro…Some of my regrets include PE 360 Men(Blue Juice) ……Intimately beckham,Iseey Gold Absolu,Love and Luck & Sun Java white. Not because they are bad scents(actually sun java white & Issey Gold are 2 scents that I enjoy) but my problem is just that I always seem to over look all of them cause I have other preferences

    Hello, So I've started getting into TF Private fragrances and my girlfriend is nuts about noir de noir. I wanted to surprise her with a TF fragrance for her but I really don't know which one to pick. I'm thinking of Black Orchid but I'm not sure.. What would you advise? I also have Tuscan (my favourite) and Tobacco but she's especially crazy about noir de noir. Thanks

    Versace Eros- Biggest mistake I ever made. I spent a hundred on it for the 6.7 fl ox bottle as a blind buy and worst decision of my life. I didn't like the smell too much and I thought it was rather strong and I actually got negative comments on it from girls.

      @Grandmaster_Sub-Zero 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Eros works really good for me. It probably doesn't work well with your body's chemistry. That's the sad part about fragrances. A fragrance can smell amazing on one person, but smell terrible on someone else.

    Great video mate, believe it or not I regret buying JPG's Le Male ! After checking tons of reviews complimenting the good projection and longevity, it was time for me to go ahead and purchase my 125 ml bottle.However, I rate the longevity and projection 1/10 each ! I heard there is a reformulated version of le male and I was pretty sure my item was 100% authentic. So pissed !

    well i'm sorry lilttle off the topic but i would honestly like to ask you which of the 2 AVENTUS or L'HUMANSITE would shine in extremely hot & humid (Middle east) weather?

    • @mislevis
      @mislevis 11 ปีที่แล้ว

      Man, Aventus is not the best choise for extremely hot weather. This Smoky pineaple is better for summer nightouts. L'HUMANSITE is my N1 for summer days. Gin + tonik + pepper + lemon - very bright and refreshing combo (better than Edition Blanche ). One of the best opening, but the drydown is a little disappointing IMO. And Longevity is around 4,5-5 hours.

    • @sameer4526
      @sameer4526 11 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @lonnieclemens8028
    @lonnieclemens8028 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    L'eau D'issey by Miyake is the cologne that I regret the most. It just does not mix with my body chemistry I guess. It smells like burning plastic when I first spray it on. It takes about 1 hour to get a decent dry down fragrance. But for others I understand that it's an excellent fragrance.

  • @nick177th
    @nick177th 9 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @tcoleman701
    @tcoleman701 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree with Tim, most of my purchases were straight up stinkers. But, I'm just getting into the game and I went wild! LIDGE and Gucci Pour Homme makes me cringe! They both smell like old cedar chests and a pine car air freshener that's been sitting in a hot car all day....Yuck!
    Nautica Voyage makes my eyes water cause it's so overpowering, and that's with just one spray! And I have to scrub it off immediately!
    That Issey is just wrong! It may be the shizznit for most, but on my skin, it smells like pole cat piss in a frying pan! (It's a southern thang)
    As I continue to follow all of the great reviews on here and learn more about the notes that compliment my body chemistry, I'll do better.
    Just want to thank all of the great reviewers and especially you Doc, because I got into the game from watching your posts. Keep em coming!

    I regret buying a lot of frags. My problem was that when I first got into the hobby I bought everything I liked at first smell. I got whatever seemed like a deal. If I was at TJ maxx and saw something on clearance I bought it if I thought it even smelled remotely good. Problem with that was I ended up with at least 15 bottles that I will NEVER wear. I have so much that I usually go for my top 5 and never muck with the others. So now I scrutinize my purchases a lot more. I spray myself instead of a card so I know how it will smell on me as I learned it can make a world of difference. And I also only buy stuff I absolutely love. If I spray it and go "yeah thats good but......." then I know it should be left on the shelf. So with that this is my list of what I really regret buying
    1. Ed hardy- Born wild, Hearts and daggers, Villian, Love and luck. They are all nice in their own right. I just never wear them. Ever.
    2. Usher- Got it on clearance. Great opening. Makes me sick on the dry down.
    3. Salvatore ferragammo- cloying and just really annoys me after time
    4. Issey Miyake leau d' issey pour homme - this stuff burns my nose. On my skin this stuff is just a sour mess. There is a note that just rots on my skin and reminds me of a dead body. Honestly the womens version actually smells better on me than this.
    5. Gucci by gucci sport.- Odd notes that just dont work with me.
    6. Issey miyake- Leau bleue d' issey- Another spoiled dead body scent.
    7. Nautica blue - Would be great in a bar of soap or body wash. Pretty much useless otherwise.
    8. Gucci guilty. _another odd note that I cant put my finger on. Musty old rag smell. I love the black version though.
    9. Marc Jacobs BANG!- Pine tree car air freshener.
    10. Versace Pour homme- Industrial power cleaning fluid. Loved it when i first got into fragrances. Now it just makes me want to wash it off.

    Le Male Summer Edition 2011
    Azzaro Chrome Summer Edition 2012
    Davidoff Cool Water Into The Ocean 2013
    Ferrari Essence Collection (Awful)
    Creed Aventus (does not work for me, over rated)
    Viktor & Rolf Antidote
    Dolce & Gabbana The One Gentlemen
    Prada Infusion d'Homme (Bought a 750ml, yes, 750!! for very very cheap, and don't like the scent, never ever going to use that much! don't know what i was thinking)
    Dolce & Gabbana La Force 11 (Bought for cheap, dreadful fragrance sickly sweet vanilla which lasts a whole hour at best, why anyone would buy this at retail price is beyond me)
    Gucci by Gucci.

    Great list as always.. I agree with 90% of your list. WIth that being said, I love MDO Vanille. It is a different take on vanilla. MDO went against the grain and created this dirty vanilla fragrance that nobody else had attempted. beautiful.

    I kinda regret buying Dior Homme Intense. I don't think it's that great. I don't get what everyone else sees in it.

    • @jayte7139
      @jayte7139 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was in the same boat, didn't know what the hype was about. And months down the line, I sprayed it and I was like wow, now I know why people love this. I have no idea what might have changed, but I love it now.

    • @guitarcleveland
      @guitarcleveland 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I ened up selling it and don't miss it at all. I love the original so much more.

    I regret buying Tommy by Tommy Hilfiger, not because it smells bad (it doesn't), but because I get sick every time I smell it :/ and also Versace pour home (too citrusy and sinthetic). Oh well.

    Acqua Di Gio Essenza, because it's 180ml, and I'll never use that much in a lifetime.

    Hi thank a lot for your great videos I need to know your opinion about on man show perfume and Lapidus Pour Homme by Ted Lapidus ? I know they are old but your opinion is important.

    • @zeusvalentine

      I know it's late to answer, but I have them both. They are pure classics and belong with any collector.
      For me, rocking the vintage is better than niche and designer combined.
      I also have capucci, and some other 1950/60s classics

    Narciso Rodriguez for him ( people love this musky smell cuz it reminds them on the rain and wet sidewalk , but it has way to much musk for me) , Versace Eros ( way to strong and synthetic imo) , perry Ellis m ( just don't like the smell ). I sample now before buying. especially since my collection is starting to hit 60 bottles. Can't waste money on stuff I don't like.
