I’m new to the fragrance world. Another TH-cam fragrance creator suggested buying decants before purchasing an entire bottle. I bought 10 decants for less than $100. (I got the smallest decants possible.). This gives me a chance to test out scents before buying an entire bottle. Many niche companies sell decants and discovery sets as well.
Rite on homie I needed this pep talk..😂 Been collecting since 2007 got too much shit. Between Frags, Js & Designer Sunglasses got to much money goin out the window 😬
Naw you absolutely correct except instead of top 3 I might do a top 4 or 5 per category but unconsciously I've already started doing this method just not as categorized as this is.
Love the breakdown bro. I really needed this. Real talk. You and EQ, the way yall think and do yall thing is soo unique. The other side gonna be copying real soon. Big Facts.
This is me. Especially when you're in fragrance groups and people are decluttering their collections. I did get Pure Havane for 79.00 as part of my "one last bottle" haul.
Thats a crazy deal. Pure Havane is fire! Definitely in my top 3. Not really a top 3 of all time type of fragrance but I just love wearing it and never get enough of the scent
@@CjcityTv waddup Cj, I have that Nefs, Bones is outta his mind if he thinks Salted Caramel is f**kin wit Nefs🤦🏿♂️🤣🤣🤣....by the way,I heard u mention a fragrance in the video called Imperium, is that the one by Electimuss or is it another brand?
Doing the same CJ. This thing can get out of hand quickly. Depending on your social life some fragrances don't fit and you will never use. I use a lot of fresh masculine barber shop fragrances recently because of my work situation so I only purchase to replace with same or chose better . Collection still solid but manageable with a system.10 niche 10designer for all situation. Great content CJ !
Exactly!! We have to be honest about fragrances "we never use" It just sits for years. No matter how good it is if its just been sitting for years you don't need it
CJ you just made my day! Just tried BDV Aurica .. never smelled anything like this. It gave me goosebumps fuckkkkkk. Best pineapple EVER period !!!! 🍍🍍
Glad you enjoyed bro! Aurica Is one of my favorite pineapple fragrances ever. I'll give you another that is really good. Try to get Musky Pineapple from dua. Its fire! One of the only DUAs i will actually wear lol
So 10 categories x top 3 means you shouldn’t have more than 30 fragrances… 🤔 Cuz I’m tryna figure out what category the other 100+ bottles on our shelf fall into 🤷🏽♀️😂👀
It just smells good and i don't have to think twice about it. I know i'll enjoy it and everyone else will. Im not scared to use expensive fragrances anymore. We bought them to wear them. Why so we ration it out.. Thats another topic for another day lol
I come in peace 🤗 As a wife who LOVES my man to smell good, honestly, anything more than 3 fragrances in rotation at a time is overkill 🤷🏽♀️ like I literally stop being able to differentiate 😂 Similar to how women go all out w/makeup more for ourselves than for y’all, I think that’s what y’all’s fragrance addiction is turning into. 😬 With Love ❤
Hey bro a great content I try to stop but I always going on sites searching for something new but if the price is right and it's something I like I will purchase it especially with niche have to start your method first
Exatamente isso, já vinha pensando sobre a quantidade de perfumes que comprei e estão no armário, vou agora organizar tudo e comprar só o necessário. Muito obrigado!!!
Real happy I found Mercari. I can justify buying new frags after I’ve sold about 2-3. Keeps the wife happy also. I sold 4-5 clones and bought a $300 fragrance and only spent $70! I’m addicted to selling then buying now 😂
Shout out from Nairobi, Kenya. I enjoyed your verscents battle with Bones Brigante. You can do other fragrance versus'. I'm down for such like content. 💥👍🏿💯
Great video CJ!! I have used something like this myself. No new bottles without selling something off. But what about samples? That’s where I gotta slow down next. I’m down to $40-$50 a month. Not terrible, but I could still be more judicious. What about Champagne Royale fam?? That’s your signature creation, along with Crème Imperial which is also fantastic.
I love Champagne royale. Still have like 3 bottles lol Put even i have to be honest with myself and say its not better than those Boadicea fragrances that made the list. However i appreciate the love! Those were 2 fire creations for sure
Bro appreciate this! I've always had a bottle or 2 laying around as a kid..as of recently my collecting habit has picked up. This type of structure really helps to put things in place for my spending habits 😂. Dope outro as well..robo cop is a classic 👌 💯
Great video, CJ! We need this kind of content more. Btw, I thought I would see White Suede in this video 😄 I love it, I bought it because of your recommendation
this hobby can definitely become and addiction if you don't find a way to check yourself. My process is simple if doesn't blow my mind then I don't buy it.
I fell you bro, I keep saying this is my last bottle for the last 17 years. Then I came to the fact that I'M a collector . so 300 + bottles later, this is my last purchase.
LOL I was there for many years. Been saying this is my last bottle many years myself. Once i did this a few years ago it allowed me to slow down alot though. I was happy about it. Its hard for sure
@@CjcityTv there's a fragrance called Imperium by Fragrance World that's supposed to smell like Roja Elysium Cologne, they even copied the bottle, didn't know if u were talking about that one or the one by Electimuss, I guess I know now...but have u ever smelled that one by Fragrance World?
@@CjcityTv lmbo yessir! Which is why I appreciate your advice. This hobby can become overwhelming and addicting if not careful. Which is I say.. 1. samples (decants) are King! Because just because you like ANOTHER vanilla bomb or oud rose doesn't mean you NEED 50ml of another vanilla or oud rose. Lol. 2. Save up for really nice bottles. I'm talking $350 and up. Because them cheapies just giving you instant gratification lol.
Black Man,I'm out of control,I lose my scene of smell ten years ago,I watch you and other reviewers, I listen to you for the most interesting fragrances ,so I buy them and watch the ladies reactions,I mite scale back,but damn it's Hard...😔😔😔😔
Man I been saying forever don't mix up this internet talk with real life better rock thst Aventus like the champ it is hardly anybody knows about that Fragance in real life cats pumped off Aqua di gio original and they showstopper is Sauvage or Bleu de Chanel!!!! Just last week I rocking Spicebomb extreme and folks was going crazy over it and was like they never even heard of Spicebomb and started googling and asking me if "this the one" 😂😂😂
Seriously! I will never let frag comm shame me out of wearing a fragrance because its played out to them. Even Spicebomb is still in my regular rotation! I had someone ask me to write down Versace Pour Homme before... a $30 dollar fragrance on discounters that people will say is played out still gets that kind of reaction lol
Lol! I know. But i had to be honest with myself awhile ago. Nefs knocked it off and took its spot. I just wear nefs way more throughout the year than i ever did side effect
My brother back in the mix
EQ 🔥🔥🔥
Y'all gave me a much needed interest again
EQ make sure he keep going!!!!
Decants and partials from fragrance groups has saved me soo much money...once you've been in the hobby for a awhile you wake up and get smart
This is my guy right here. We are blessed to have u back my brother. It definitely wasn't the same without u in the fragrance world champ!
My guy! Definitely appreciate you
We appreciate to EQ for bringing u back. Your Verscents with Bones was hilarious. Great content!

Can you do more videos on gifts for men (other than fragrances)? Loved the gifts for men list !
Love the breakdown bro. I really needed this. Real talk. You and EQ, the way yall think and do yall thing is soo unique. The other side gonna be copying real soon. Big Facts.

Yo where you been at we need you back on TH-cam can you teach me how to get them kicks like you
So 10 categories x top 3 means you shouldn’t have more than 30 fragrances… 🤔
Cuz I’m tryna figure out what category the other 100+ bottles on our shelf fall into 🤷🏽♀️😂👀
I said the last 2 years I've been doing this. The other 100 were from the previous 3 years when I wasn't being smart lol
Wow Thameen regent leather grab n go, you are the real deal, salute to you from 🇿🇦 Joburg South

I like that word Structure! Its so fitting. We need more structure with our collecting. Thats why i love this method i've been using
Brother, give us a best men perfume review
Thanks CJ

Btw, I thought I would see White Suede in this video 😄 I love it, I bought it because of your recommendation
this hobby can definitely become and addiction if you don't find a way to check yourself. My process is simple if doesn't blow my mind then I don't buy it.
Any recommendations for date night? Did you end up selling Mashumaro as well?
Where do you sale off your fragrances, City?

Great video
Best video so far. So informative! so useful!
Another great video Brother
U are the best!
Much appreciated
You think Imperium is better than Aventus? It’s definitely a great compliment getter!
Definitely not better to my personal taste but for some reason its more of a hit when i wear it amongst people
@@CjcityTv there's a fragrance called Imperium by Fragrance World that's supposed to smell like Roja Elysium Cologne, they even copied the bottle, didn't know if u were talking about that one or the one by Electimuss, I guess I know now...but have u ever smelled that one by Fragrance World?
