I know, I know. I'm back in my provocative title bag. 🔥
But I promise I have some very thoughtful and poignant ideas to back it up.
Do fragrances do things "for" you?
Are they products with guaranteed "features" ?
We will examine these questions and more in this brief, critical video.
I hope you enjoy.

Justin is one of the very very few people in this community that I trust. He doesn't BS people like so many do. So many of the larger channels have gone down the baloney route for success. He's one of the very few channels that still gives this fragrance community a dose of reality and truth.
I'm right there with you bro, I agree whole-heartedly!
true story. Justin and Robes08
You're absolutely right, I wish I'd found Justin's channel when I first started collecting
He's the definition of a real friend, tells you how it is, not what you want to hear.
Thank you Chad. 🙏🏾
Justin as life coach. Once again, putting the wearing of fragrances into perspective.
You're one of the most authentic reviewers in this community. I never get tired of your commentary on fragrances. So much thought put into the content. Love it bro! #FreshSquad
I appreciate that!
This is an under rated video.
Most of us know it already to an extent. But you presented it beautiful - in a way we needed to hear
Wow, thank you 🙏🏾
Perfect. A fragrance is for the wearer. I'm only trying to impress myself without offending others. I spray myself when I'm home alone, because the smell is for ME. It's a plus if others like it, but I don't need their approval. When my GF is around, I will choose something that we both like. But she so far has loved everything I wear.
Man this truth hits hard! Starting out in the fragrance world I bought too many fragrances that I didn’t really enjoy because someone on TH-cam said they were complement magnets. Imagine my surprise when I felt let down when a) nobody said anything about what I was wearing and b) I didn’t really enjoy them myself (Sauvage EDP, The One EDP, BDC EDP etc). Much happier now wearing what I enjoy and when the compliments do happen it is merely a bonus. Thanks for keeping it real.
I understand! I had to learn the same lesson. Thank you
So what do you enjoy?
What do you enjoy?
I didn’t make it to church this Sunday morning but Justin low key came through with it !
words of wisdom and encouragement that were also challenging
😆🙏🏾
Great video and incredibly grounded perspective. This is the type of content the fragrance space needs.
I appreciate that!
Thank you, I consider this video to be brilliant and contain wisdom that is everyone should value in their life. Very well put👏👏
Awesome video. It’s great when you thoroughly enjoy every fragrance in your collection, regardless of the hype, or lack there of.
I like getting compliments for my fragrance but I like enjoying the scent myself more so I always go with my favourites
Another great, genuine and thoughtful video. Great stuff, Justin.
I appreciate that!
wear the cologne IF YOU LOVE IT 📣📣
Great advice. Wear what you love. Bettering yourself is a novel idea, yet basic growth. So fragrances are an extension of one’s personality? But doesn’t mold the person?
I don't think I have the right words to describe you with. You're just a gem, thanks for everything, truly.
Wow, thank you 🙏🏾
It's called love yourself first; eventually, people love you. Excellent, Justine, you're the one who wants to avoid pleasing people for the statistics.
You are absolutely correct.
On a side note, most reviewers present fragrances like they are some kind of a magic potion that will easily fulfill a certain task. Disregarding that it will entirely depend on the person and his personality to fulfill that task and that fragrance will only be the icing on the cake.
I subscribed to you because you are different and refuse to support the hyped up fragrances. Not only that, but also I found that your content is of high quality outside the fragrance world as much as inside of it.
That means a lot. Thank you very much
Speaking the truth! Without a doubt, my favorite fragrance channel.
Thank you!
Great descriptions of very likeable fragrances you might love. You’ve summarized the vibe and, if you love it, a great reason to wear these fragrances. Thank you for including a bit of Custin in this video.
Haha. Thank you, Catherine.
This is the type of informative and creative content that keeps me coming back for more. Nice presentation. Thank you for all the efforts that you put into your videos and channel. Keep doing your thing. You are on your way sir.
Thank you 🙏🏾
This is an incredible video; I absolutely love the honest perspective, and willingness to communicate that it really doesn't matter if other people compliment you, as long as you're comfortable with yourself. Smelling "good" is extremely subjective, and at the end of the day, you're the only person you should be trying to impress. Buy fragrances (and all other accessories) for yourself, and if other people like them/let you know they enjoy them, that's just a bonus for the day. Thank you for the content, Justin!
Thank you for watching!
Loved the Its and Its NOT format. Need a part 2 of this video with more fragrances! 😂
Thank you!
Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day
Good consultation
I have yet to watch a video of yours that i don't get a takeaway beyond merely reviewing fragrance. I have come to value your opinion and you also give extremely solid general life advice from a place of wishing to see all people be the best version of themselves. Much much love, my friend ❤
Thank you Jason!
Shoutout from Brazil! Love your content, Justin. Every video is kind os a life lesson. Thank you and keep it up 👊🏻
I appreciate that!
Justin is the true definition of a man, if you like it, that’s all that matters!!!
Thank you
I love this format, Justin! ❤
Thank you 🙏🏾
Everything you has stated here makes very good sense my brother. No lie detected.
🙏🏾
Berlint unique take of fragrance unlike any other videos on fragrance
Justin just does not miss. Great video man. I like the way you brought thought provoking media into play here, encouraging conscious opinions & decisions on fragrances we wear/buy rather than just hunting bottles blindly.
Thank you very much.
Sir, thank you for your genuine and authentic perspective, in my opinion. Videos like this one are the reason I watch all of your clips. Keep up the amazing work.🤜🏽🤛🏽✌🏾
I appreciate that 🙏🏾
Thank you for always coming up with this videos which not everyone wants to hear but anyone should comprehend
🙏🏾
The ones you recommended could low key be a perfect collection
Facts Justin the best way describe a fragrance sotd Roja Danger cologne 👍🔥💯
My fragrance mows my lawn, washes and folds my laundry and even cooks me dinner, and if I'm really being nice to it by giving it a few extra sprays sometimes it even gives me a handy to end the day
😅😅😅!
Love what you have regardless if its fragrance or something else,theres more to life than the material!
This kind of content should be the norm and not the minority... Keep up the good work Justin !
Thank you!
Man I love that this perspective is being shared on here. A pet peeve of mine is reading fragrance reviews that go:
“this scent is amazing, it’s everything I want in a fragrance but it just doesn’t project enough. 5/10.”
(Just saw a fragrantica review of Mind Games Blockade pretty much identical to this)
I read these and I feel disappointed. If you require beast mode performance, I can’t help but think that you’re missing out on some incredible fragrance experiences. But to each their own I guess.
I know exactly how you feel.
My fellow fragrance heads, ask not what your fragrance can do for you, but what you can do for your fragrance.
😆👌🏾
very good video. I have always thought about some of the quesions you are asking. this video should be watched by all men who love to smell good.
Thank you
I couldn’t have successful interactions with women until I started following Justin Copeland aka StayFreshProductions
another incredible video from justin! he speaking the truth.
From my experience a lot of fragrances that I have have never been reviewed on TH-cam or least I haven’t seen them but they get me a lot of compliments. I never wear for feedback I wear them cause I absolutely love the smell and it mixes well with my skin which also smells good 😎🤣 seriously I feel what you saying bro they present these fragrances like compliments are a guarantee and that’s just not the case.
Best advice ive ever seen on a frag channel. Well done sir.
I appreciate that.
Good video. I sometimes subconsciously get the idea (insecure) idea that fragrances will increase my chances in life, but that’s an irrational thought. I wear fragrances to add depth to my personality, and because I simply love the smell :)
this might be one of your best videos you've released so far. I have an incredible collection of perfumes, many people have smelled the perfumes I wear, everyone has had a different approach. Sometimes, when I wanted to get a compliment on perfumes like: Leyton, Sauvage Elixir, Mancera Cedrat Boise, YSL Perfume, Blue Channel Perfume, Sauvage Perfume, Prada l'homme, Acqua Di Parma Oud and I get 0 compliments. But I feel good that day. Let's be clear, all these perfumes I listed brought me compliments, but the point is that we wear perfumes for our noses, not for someone else's. There will be days when you won't get compliments, and sometimes you will, everything is individual, but the point is that you like what you wear.
Just because you didn't get compliments doesn't mean, people around you did not enjoy it.
Yeah. People are not always vocal about admiration.
Thank you very much.
Totally agree 💯 Thank you Justin for a great content! 👍😃
Presenting self growth through fragrances 👏👏👏👏
Justin,a lot of people don't have a clue what's their choice!. They're waiting for big channels to tell them. It's a part of a process 🤷
There are some Justin's videos that'll help them as they helped me. To know what I'm looking in a fragrance, expectations and ultimately - choice. Mostly gathering my thoughts and desires.
And one more thing - no more blind buying.
🙏🏾
Wow 😮 great video, thank you 😊
I see you making it real far, and I'm still gonna be here when people really recognize your talent and appreciate your job. You're the best in my opinion on this, I bet you got lots of haters.
Thank you
Luckily I got this message just from my first blind buy perfume (Hawas btw) I bought because of hype and what not... I swore never to blind buy anything again and only buy the one I enjoy myself period
Great video, and I fully agree - nobody can tell you which is a good or bad fragrance. Just one observation, you said Percival is synthetic, yet the ingredients say otherwise. Aaron Terence Hughes also described it as “jam-packed full of naturals” in his review. Just curious what makes it smell synthetic to you?
Thank you. While Percival might contain natural ingredients, its scent personality doesn’t smell natural to me. That’s not to say it smells harsh or badly-composed-it as a whole just doesn’t remind me of anything in the natural world outside of men’s shower gel. Nothing wrong with that-still smells good.
@@stayfreshproductions Thanks for your reply, I like the way you articulate your points!
Great video Justin. This needed to be said.
I love this Justin. Speak the truth. Its in you not on you.
🙏🏾
You should make more videos like this dude!!!!
FInally! A video like this HAD TO BE DONE! This is a deeper topic than people would assume and fragrances are the perfect "thing" to get to that point.
My message to you, the reader of this comment: You are special but maybe still not the best/better version of yourself, yet. A fragrance will not help you to become that person. You are more than that. Don't be shallow, be as special and unique as you are - and keep on evolving.
Good advice. Not bad
Love that kind of content Justin! Thanks
Thank you!
Justin throwing shots at the typical IG fragrance influencer. I love it
The reason that Justin’s (one of) the only fragrance TH-camrs that I consistently watch is because of his opinions shared in this video. I’m tired of hearing about compliment getting fragrances like le male elixir and Chanel allure home sport, although I understand that they do smell fantastic. I think justin is doing great by pushing for people to find what they like as opposed to what others like
Thank you Ryan 🙏🏾
Which one gives me those delts?!
Don't lie to me, J!
I know you know!
😆
Great vídeo
Thank you
the better fragrance guy here!... if more people listened to you, curlyfragrance would not have an audience :)))
Keeping it real brother!
Thank you!
I love this creation. … “ compliments “ run so many of our choices when it comes to decisions on fragrance choices…. Men are so insecure nowadays…want a ton of attention without putting any work in
I couldn’t have said it better
Fragrance is only 0.01 % of things that you should focus on. There are far better and more important things in life that you should pay more attention to. Like your family, your work, your cleanliness, how you dress etc...well presented Justin.
🙏🏾
What I don't like are those people wearing frags for compliments, when they don't get they think the frags are bad....my take I wear frags for me only. The offensive ones I wear where humans but me go.....🎉
I was just looking for a review, jesus 😭
Liked the video a lot
Thank you 🙏🏾
100% the truth spoken in this video.
Well said and all too true.
We need Custin Jopeland to make an appearance. 😊
I feel like percival does not project for its price I think if it’s that expensive it should project for what it’s worth
Unfortunately fragrances don’t really work like that
Can you do a Video about Training your nose for fragrance Ingredients?
More of Systematic approach then „Collect“ one or two of every category and get used to it?
That would be Great.
I asked the same at parfumo and just Nobody „Trained“ it was Kind of try and error and Trust what the companies Tell Whats Inside the bottle…
I get suggestions Like Buy Parfume oils of every Kind.
There are Workshops outside how to Build a fragrance…maybe that…
But no systematic approach.
Parfumeurs have to learn this at Colleges so There Must be Books and guidelines for this.
Unfortunately I don’t have any “expertise” outside of the methods you’ve just described. My experience has come from smelling thousands of fragrances over many years. I believe that a trained perfumer would be better suited to provide a systematic approach.
“Are these people wrong? Of course…” would’ve been funnier 😂
👍🏾
Thank you sir :)
Only advice i will give to people is this...before you think about putting on a colonge..plseae please..1) shower/bath regularly..2) groome your hair/facial hair properly and lastly...3) dress yourself with fresh/clean cloths....colonge is the final step in self care routine not the first one..please keep that in mind!!❤❤
Yes!
Fragrances are an accessory like piercings and hats. Do you absolutely need to wear them to function in daily life? No. But do they add an extra aspect to an already well-established persona? Definitely.
Don't follow the hype unless you have experience with it yourself and have made up your own mind about it; you'll find more often than not you'll be more satisfied and be disappointed way less often that way, and I'm not just talking about fragrances.
Wear what you like, and like what you wear.
Fragrances are self expression, you shouldn’t care bout others and their compliments, it should put a smile on your face when you put it on. I’m so tired of vids with titles along the lines of “10 fragrances that will guarantee to get you compliments (from women)!”
Dr Copeland keep teaching people
Whenever I hear someone talking negative about themself I always interject (even if they are a stranger) and say
- /// Don’t talk about yourself like that. I bet if someone said those thing about your best friend you would check them quick and let ‘em know -don’t be badmouthing my friend. ///
Nice!
Justin is dropping truth bombs. A fragrance is one piece of the puzzle. You could wear the best, most incredible smelling cologne ever made. However...if you're 5'10" 335 lbs wearing flip flops, basketball shorts, a 6x Fat Bassturd t shirt with a cat on the front.....just go home.
The world is full of what I call "The Dude Bros" Flip flops, cargo shorts, some logo t-shirt, and of course the staple of the Dude Bros.....the backwards ball cap. What are you......12???
I disagree a bit with the title of this video. While a fragrance can't guarantee you more sex or greater popularity, it can affect your mentality. Wearing a scent that you really like can boost your mood and make you more confident. So, I agree with the "if you love it" part of your message.
I agree with you. But I’d use a different word to describe what you’re saying:
Fragrances can indeed do things TO you (affect your mood, confidence, etc). But they cannot necessarily do things FOR you (affect the people in your environment in ways favorable to you).
I use my fragrances for personal pleasure. A comment is nice, but I like the scents, and I like to smell good.
I do disagree with some of this content though. I do think that longevity and mass appeal i.e more compliments are factual. Some fragrances last longer and get more compliments and that's factual. Now whether you like and decide to buy them is subjective but to say that it's not quantifiable is wrong in my opinion
It may be true that a Dior homme intense will get you more compliments than a masque Milano fragrance. But that’s not what he said, he was talking about how compliments are not in your control. It’s a very silly thing that influencers promise compliments regarding a scent
I don't think it's silly to say that certain fragrances guarantee compliments or are more likely to than others. It's not a perspective to say that. Some of my fragrances don't get too many compliments and others do. That's not perspective thats experience wearing them. It's not that important for me but for some,compliments are something they look for for various reasons .
It’s the fact that some people try to quantify them as “features” that is sad to me. If you get good performance and compliments from a fragrance, I never said that’s a bad thing. They’re just byproducts.
I guess I think a complement puller can be a feature in a fragrance. But let's be fair your knowledge is more than mine. I think you have awesome content and one of my faves in this space.
Speaking of redundancy.
This video made most fragrance and self help videos redundant in one fell swoop. 🤣
😆
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved
I wear My Fragrances To Inspire People Not To Smell Like Black and Milds mixed with Life’s Struggles
These thumbnails make me feel like you got into trouble and big brother is gonna sort you out lol.
Lol
Buy to smell good 👍🏻
I am 29 , Percival is my signature scent, I find it mass appealing similar to Fierce and montblanc legend edt/edp
Again, its just my opinion 😁
I hope you love it!
A good fragrance will solve about .01% of life problems. The rest will simply take some responsibility 😆
Nice
based

Even though some of your pics get me compliments 😂😂 but I enjoyed the video GREAT STUFF 🫡🫡 Great way to help others grow with there Fragrances
