    Really appreciate your vulnerability and honesty in this video. Even though you admit that fragrances aren’t your forte, your opinion on this topic carries so much weight as a lot of us aren’t exactly scent gurus either. It’s nice to hear the opinion of just a regular person influenced by nothing more than his family

    Love the fragrance videos!
    Rule of thumb, buy samples of the ones you want to try out, that way the wife can always smell first to see if she likes it along with yourself. Saves you from having to buy a full bottle and find out that way.
    Of the 40 bottles or so in my collection, there isn't one I have that mine hasn't smelled first before getting to make sure she likes it. After all, we wear them to smell good for our women! 👍

    I just wanna be your friend dude lol. You really are a relatable guy and I’m so glad I stumbled upon your videos. I dig the cooking videos because the stuff you make is perfect for my family of 6. But I like the idea of you stepping out and doing some other content. I like fragrance and smelling good too. Used to be subscribed to Scent Bird because it would send 3 different scents a month and it was a great way to try things out and get discounts in full bottles you end up liking. Sephora will also give you samples of stuff to try out. Sometimes the scent wears off too soon but also sometimes it can evolve into a scent you don’t really dig! Anyway, loved the vid! Hope you do some more long form content!

    I have also been going through a journey to look more presentable as my wife would say - I prefer to say finding a look I feel more comfortable in. Joining the fragrance community and discovering a clothing brand that fit my body type really has done wonders.
    As you continue down that path - if you're thinking of doing more with fragrances, I highly recommend finding a good decant website. Somewhere they will sell a small bottle with to try vs buying full bottles.
    Also I personally love the Dior fahrenheit line. The original smells exactly like what I imagine Danny from Grease would smell like. Leather gasoline (in a good way). The parfum is actually a completely different scent. It's smooth, boozy even. It dries down into this real nice bourbon vanilla. I use to say the le parfum smelled like pure confidence.

    Listen to your wife. She smells you. And, how it smells in the bottle is not how it smells on your body. And, how it smell on one man wont smell the same on another. Boby chemicals are different on each of us.❤

    Love this! Everybody has their own preferences. My husband & I have been married for 26 years & he's only changed his cologne twice in all that time. He now wears Diesel, and I love it on him. I don't really care for how it smells in the bottle, but it works so well with his body chemistry that it smells amazing on him. His mom gave him a little sample thing with about 6 sprays in it, he tried it even tho I told him I didn't like the way it smelled in the bottle. He sprayed it on ( me almost gagging when I walked into the bathroom), he went outside to work on the truck for a couple hours. When came back in it smelled completely different and it was amazing.
    My sister asked what cologne he was wearing at Thanksgiving becuz she liked it. She bought some for her husband. (And I had warned her about the smell in the bottle). He put it on & did what my husband did, he went outside for a couple hours & when he came back in she made him go take a shower, becuz she couldn't stand the way it smelled on him! So, it will smell different on different people. All of them do. So make sure to give each of them a fair chance! Just my advice, for what it's worth!
    Much love to you & your beautiful family, from SW Louisiana 💚😘

    Im right there with you, spicebomb extreme is good , but to me, Cremo Spice and Black Vanilla is as good if not better in some ways. And the kicker, its only $19.97 for the Cremo. As a matter of all of the Cremo fragraces are bangers.

    Welcome to FragComm. Allow me to be one of those weirdos to suggest some new fragrances at different price points.
    For a cheaper scent similar to Chanel Allure Homme Sport is Versace Pour Homme. VPH is literally a dumb reach and one of the best.
    For a designer option I would suggest sampling Bleu de Chanel Parfum. One of the most polished and versatile fragrances. Smells of class and wealth.
    For another end designer my choice for you is to sample Tom Ford Black Lacquer. If you are big leather fan I’d say give this a sample. Dark and mysterious leather scent.
    Lastly niche options, my first suggestion would be Amouage Jubilation 25 for men. Smells like a king. This scent is oud, blackberries, myrrh, and honey to name a few notes.
    Sticking with Amouage if you like a smoky frankincense try Interlude Man. Watch the trigger on this one, stuff is nuclear.
