I were looking for a signature scent and I thought I found it, however I have come to realise I love fragrances too much and life is too short to smell the same everyday. I’d rather just smell how I feel like on each day and appreciate different scents. There are too many good scents out there to not wear, even just standard mass appealing designer ones.
I stopped collecting but I also use different fragrances whenever I feel like it. Sure I have 5 or 6 “most used” scents but I also have fragrances for special occasions or seasons.
You definitely gotta know when to wear them. I own 4 JPG & 1mil elixer. 1 mil elixer smells fantastic but you gotta wear it in cold or cool environment in certain occasions…..JPG Le beau intense is nuclear LOL but you cant always wear it….the only one i have which is universal “JPG in the navy”
I do like JPG Le Male Le Parfum, and Le Male Elixir. As for Paco Rabanne, the two I like from them are Pure XS Night, and the new One Million Golden Oud.
After Eros got reformulated I moved to Ultra Male for a loud beast mode scent but ironically I never see the occasion to wear it so I go back to Eros as it’s current batches are more work appropriate.
One million royal and lucky are the outliers. Royal just really works off my skin for date nights and gives a chocolate caramel vibe. Probably my go-to for that situation. Lucky is just elite. My second fav of the line. JPG idk. I like le beau as it’s quieter but I tried Afnan 9PM. (UM clone) It’s growing on me but it’s really too sweet. So I really seem to prefer Paco over JPG. I’m a 25M for context
Great video! I love the scent of some of the jpg fragrances, but I am a bit older and can't really find the situation to wear them. I have been trying to justify buying a full bottle of some of these scents since I love the scent but I feel they would just sit on my shelf since they are not appropriate for situations that I am mostly in.
💯AGREE! I was exited to smell the JPG Le Male flankers including the Elixir because I see it everywhere on social media only to find them just ending up being OK or Just Nice but not full bottle worthy which was disappointing.
When you wear a fragrance that's too loud for the occasional it definitely gives inconsiderate asshole vibes. And it happens often. Matter of fact, it's how MOST people wear fragrances smh. Not sure how anyone could not like le male but I digress. Must just not like fougere fragrancea
I was excited for my new JPG Elixir, so i wore it to work one night. I work NOC shift. Some chick stopped dead in her tracks next to my desk, squinted her eyes, scrunched the f out of her nose and said, " what smells like vanilla!?" Lmaoooo
I definitely understand where you are coming from but I definitely love me some JPG and Paco... Ultramale, Le male parfum, le male Elixir, le beau, le beau parfum, 1 million elixir, lucky, royal, Victory Elixir..got them all, love them all 😂 but I totally get it
Le Male Elixir, you got to try this one. First time I smelled it on a paper strip, I was ok, not really impressed. The magic happens when you were it. This fragrance seems to have been made for the wearer. Not for people around, although there's nothing offensive about this one. The more you were it, the more it becomes addicting. One of the best fragrance to smell up close.
So do you have the perfect plan for applying fragrance? Where to apply and how many sprays? I want to be smelt but don't want to annoy others, please help me!🙏
I’m guessing you haven’t smelled Le Male Elixer or Le Male Le Parfum, because you referenced the original. Those two smell pretty modern. Also, the Parfum version of Scandal is light years better than the original Scandal.
I'd like to hear your reaction to my secret weapon nonbody ever talks about. I've had many bottles give great reactions but the killer only comes out when I'm serious lol. Spirito Fiorentino , its perfectly unisex and in my experience it crosses into aphrodisiac territory. Much Love.
i agree with your view on them. only argument is that one million lucky and privee are some of the best designers and are complete polar opposites compared to the rest of the paco rabanne collection
Idk if this comment is for anybody but if you’re clubbing in Florida skip the fragrance. Every time I went out as a young fettuccinealraver I smelled, to me at the time, the effect of a macys fragrance department. People are sweating up a storm and the it girl across the dance floor doesnt have time for cloying fragrances.
Well Paco Rabanne the creator died recently, and they will be known as just Rabanne, I wonder if they will now get better or worse, that will be interesting to see or should I say smell 😉
Thats because society has been trying to demasculate men so now men wear capri pants and sweet fragrances like jpg and pr. Most new mens fragrances are somewhat unisex.

Truth
Love that

Totally agree about these two brands! But do you find the Le male Le Parfum to be a bit of an outlier or exception in its line?
Need to try that one
I do like JPG Le Male Le Parfum, and Le Male Elixir. As for Paco Rabanne, the two I like from them are Pure XS Night, and the new One Million Golden Oud.
We can always count on Melissa to keep it real 💪
Always

Eros is great

theyre all pretty good tbh
Paco Rabanne is always the best, they are lead and others follow
I’m actually wearing paco rabbane phantom and I love it but it doesn’t last long

Recently been wearing 1 Million Parfum. Felt second hand embarrassment even though I stick to one spray.
Love the video Melissa stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
agree with everything EXCEPT for le male le parfum. That one's the mature, toned down le male which also happened to changed my mind about jpg

The one million Parfums and pho example 💀💀💀 is SO GOOD AND REAL

@@melissanacional9662 I will, thanks Melissa! I didn‘t remember you have a video✌️

Oh I still like the brands for sure. Lucky is my fave flanker of 1mil
Golden oud is the best 1million in terms of 'new' to the line. It's REALLY fucking good lol

while we're eating pho is CRAZY 😂😂😂
I have victory elixir and love it

RIP to one of the best perfumers around. I didn't even realized he died. Crazy
One Million Royal is a beast. 2 sprays is the absolute max. One spray is good 2 is better and 3 gives you and everyone else a headache.

Can’t lie this is a very sensitive take lmaoo
@@melissanacional9662 😂 suuuuure it is 😉
Any dude that whines about society emasculating men, ain’t masculine 😂
@@melissanacional9662 if i aint masculine and you are then maybe society is to blame 😂😂😂
If you ain’t masculine that’s all on you lmaooo blaming anyone else is a cop out😭😭
