So even before I saw your fragrance collection I was going to say I can’t believe your channel is so new! You’ve become my favorite channel to follow. BUT now, I know it’s true when I saw Les Sables Roses!! I have several LV fragrances, but LSR is by far my favorite ! Again, love your videos !
Just found you on my recommendations and I saw a bunch of your vlogs, really enjoy your lifestyle content and the way you present and edit the videos. Keep it going!
My favorite new TH-camr!!! Always great to see a new vid. I wear Mason mangela's By the fireplace 😊
Love Le Labo Another 13. I worked with a client who was wearing it, and had to ask what she was wearing so that I could purchase it. I've been layering it with a new find, Louis Vuitton Matiere Noire. I also love Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade (very smoky, oudy). Since you like Celine Black Tie, I think you'll love Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir. I was working with a client this week who also wears it, and everyone on the sales floor kept stopping to figure out who smelled so good, and what they were wearing.
I too was given a sample of De Los Santos and after wearing it out I had the most compliments ever! It quickly became my favourite and now it’s my staple scent! It’s such a rich, warm scent! I want to get Sellier too, but I do have Tobacco Mandarin from the Byredo extract collection. I feel we have the same scent style and if you love those woodier, darker, smokier scents too, that is also a gorgeous fragrance!
I just got my first ‘nice’ fragrance (LV L’Immensite which was definitely a basic/safe choice) but there is 100% truth to how long a little bit lasts!
B&H was my favourite when I was there in September!
Oh wow! Congratulations on your video sponsor!
Very nice collection! But what's worth mentioning, and it's maybe a little bit of a correction, is that wearing higher quality fragrances doesn't necessarily mean they'll project more or have better longevity. One of the determining factors for that is the concentration (cologne, edt, edp, parfum, extrait, attar, etc). Also, skin chemistry and diet/hydration play into this as well.
Always sample as much as possible, find your vibe, get decants from reputable websites, and only buy bottles of fragrances you'll wear often. And be prepared for your smell preferences to possibly change every few years!
Great fragrance collection! ..my day time fragrance- Parade- Celine/Beige- Chanel....Night time- Tobbaco Honey- Guerlain/ Carnal Flower- Frederic Malle.
Thank you so much for relaxing 😌 beautiful vlogs 🥀✨
hey Ben, what do you think of the Brunello Cucinelli eau de parfum?
What charger are you using to charge your earbuds on your desk? Looks cool.
Next time you’re in Chicago head to the Gold Coast, Le Labo on Oak St. and ask for Carlos. He’s amazing, always wanna buy everything in that shop!! Rose 31 is my favorite! Also Le Labo Hinoki body wash / hand wash are 🔥!
The hair is looking good today…I did the Tom Ford for a while but so into Elorea fragrences now
Good choices! I see you have Celine and LV. I do have the Celine Parade and the LV Afternoon Swim :)
Thank you for sharing your favorite luxury fragrances. I went out with my sister to test some of your recommendations but I didn't see them listed in the description area. Can you please add links? Thank you
what size is the West Elm Marble tray you have?
I prefer wearing masculine scents🙃
Afternoon Swim - Louis Vuitton
L’immensité - Louis Vuitton
New subscriber here! I think I'm going to love this channel, i like the non braggadocios/ pretentious feel to it
Gorgeous fragrance collection! Have you tried any Frederic Malle fragrances? Musc Ravageur is amazing.
FM is my favorite house! My top 3: Promise, The Moon, and Portrait of a Lady. But I would recommend trying them out first, none of these is blind buy safe 😅
I love Acqua di Parma. My personal favorite is Note di Colonia I - inspired by Verdi's La Traviata.
I love fragrance videos 💎
Another 13 is proper. Nothing like it. I recommend you try out Lavande 31 by Le Labo and Bal Al Frique by Byredo. Great vid.
Hey Ben, what’s the size of your box chain bracelet? But, yeh - great fragrance rotation you got there. Cheers!
Love your scent selection. Thoughts on Tom Ford Oud Wood? I’m a huge fan of Dior, Jo Malone scents too.
instead of oud wood, buy hermetica dark oud, instead of dior sauvage buy hermetica redmoon. You can get way better perfumes for these „luxury“ perfume prices… You should start looking into niche fragrances.
I don’t wear Dior Sauvage
@@YesItsMeToolz besides dior sauvage there is no good dior fragrance 💀
Rose of no man’s land and Gypsy water by byredo are really nice as well!
Have you ever tried any of the Argo Fragrances? Not only are the bottles beautiful but the oils they use are top quality.
Yep definitely purchasing Another 13 after watching this
You gotta try out D. S. and Durga (based in NYC). Also a niche fragrance house with lots of interesting combinations. You might like Amber Kiso - dark, smokey, woody, incense. Amber Teutonic - woody, slightly citrusy, dark, amber. Burning barbershop - smokey, medicinal, dark. D. S. (Gold label) dark, floral, woody and slightly citrusy. Notorious oud - dark, medicinal, woody. Bow makers- resinous, woody, gasoline.
Also lookout for Le Labo’s city exclusives during September. Mousse de chene (amsterdam), poivre (london), cedrat (berlin) arr the ones im working through
YSL Y (edp) and Mancera Cedrat Boise (intense) are my go to 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
I learned my lesson on blind purchasing a fragrance. (I’m looking at you Byredo Mister Marvelous) I really want a vanilla fragrance but have no way of sampling that Celine Black Tie. Right now my daily is Mojave Ghost.
LV fragrances are great. Afternoon Swim for the summer. Le Roses Sables is definitely a great date night.
Mojave ghost, Gypsy water and Bal D’afrique are all 🔥
Great videos Ben! I would recommend you give 'Santal Royal' by Guerlain a try. Just tried it at a fragrance store here in Delhi, India and it smelled amazing. Cheers!
Hi Ben, a very nice video - your scents are very fancy and beautiful. Maybe you'll make a video about all your sunglasses - I've seen in the closet tour You have a lot in your drawer - it's going to be exciting - thank you very much Your videos about beautiful luxury are really fun !!
Where’s the T-shirt from?
You need to check out MFK - Grand Soir, TF - Ombre Leather and MM - Jazz Club, I think you'd enjoy these scents Ben.
What was the name of the room
Spray you use ? 🫣👀
Tried the De Los Santos today in SpaceNK in London. Very nice but I'm not sure about the longevity. One of my favourites is Quercia by Aqua Di Parma
I'm surprised... no Tom Ford or Hermes in the collection.
have you tried Palo Santo by Carner Barcelona? I find it interesting, in a good way
Your personal account (and walking tour) of hip, and trendy Manhattan neighborhoods would be great!! …..including cafes, coffee spots, boutiques, galleries, etc. 😀
Bet Zoey is thinking...omg he's talking to himself again in front of this thing....hes slowly loosing it.... 😂, btw we need a vlog about Zoey.....🙂
You need to try Ds and Durga it’s a fragrance house from Brooklyn ❤
have you tried Bal d'Afrique from Byredo?
Hi! Greetings from Brasil Ben🇧🇷 Remeber u accidentally turned on the beauty camera mode or filter? I guess I did it again, specially in the shots that you talked about the new camera lenses ( before the sponsor take) 😅. Still, great video anyway!
Hey Ben, can you please review your wallets next?
Love Byredo
What about Santal 33?
Enjoyable, relaxed video. I would just disagree though that fragrances are "investments". An expensive commodity that diminishes away to nothing can't really be called an investment. Not being an idiot here, but as I've heard a few fragrance youtubers say this, I just thought I'd make that point. Cheers.
You should try byredo tobacco mandarin…it’s really good
I am here for Zoë stealing the spotlight! 😍
You know I’m subscribed, cause I’m always first to comment 😂🤣
yes you are and I love it!
@@BenTaylorNYC. Hi Ben. How big is your apartment in square metres?
Keep them in a cupboard away from UV and heat. Helps to preserve them.
Give Perfumer H a try, beautiful minimal and a bit more niche. You might like it
Just looked up that house! Looks interesting. Which one would you recommend?
@@coltex2397 Ink is really beautiful! One of their popular scents. Like the scent of blue ink but earthy and a touch floral. Some of my other favs are Woodlands, Leather, and Patchouli. Fig, and raincloud are pretty unique for fruitier scents.
黒い大理石✨️綺麗ですね💕
メンタル大丈夫ですか。
呼吸法がいいと聞きます。
ブロッコリー🥦︎、牡蠣🦪oyster、ミニトマト🍅、アーモンドミルク、
ケール、ピーナッツ🥜
Is that the SMALL or LARGE tray?
Sellier reminds me of smell from the interior of a vintage Ferrari.
Have you always lived in NYC? What are your favourite spots?
J' adore ton contenu. 1000 likes.
You have to also be careful about laying Fragrances because you can get chemical burn
New camera sony is hard
Byredo is overrated af. I love the scent but the performance and longevity is so pathetic for the amount of money you pay. It's such a shame as I do own Mojave Ghost.
Louis Vuitton on the other hand is crazy expensive but it's definitely worth it and it's awesome how you can refill it for cheaper. I own Imagination, City of Stars, Orage, and Ombre Nomade. They're amazing.
Would highly recommend Amouage, Xerjoff, and BDK Parfums if you can. I'm also a big fan of Etat Libre d'Orange but they're not for everybody since they release some duds. You or Someone Like You is one of my favorites of all time though.
Sellier is the best out of all Byredo
Quick note: You read the wrong fragrance notes for Another 13, it doesn’t have citrus or fruit notes. You probably read the notes for Ambrette 9. 😉
Cologne with OUD is expensive
outerwear collection next please?
I have a fragrance brand would you be willing to review it?
Do you have a beauty filter on by accident? Your skin on your face looks blurry
Did u watch the video without sound😂😂😅
Indeed 😊👍
So beautiful skin 😍
