Yes, and when he hates a fragrance why does he sprays it SEVERAL times above his head and then leans for it to settle all around his head and his HAIR? That is going to stay there until he showers :D When I try fragrance I might possibly not like I try it on a blotting paper or on my wrist that I can go and wash away at any time if I want to :)
He might not normally be afraid. But he doesn't want to jeopardise his living. Some of these brands mightve sent him perfumes or worked with him so he doesn't wanna throw it in their face either. I get where he's coming from inspite being big on authenticity myself.
Gotta respect a man that can tell the Truth and be Honest in this day and age where people (esp. "Influencers" etc) will say anything to make fast $$$. Thanks Jeremy! 💪💯👍
Review fragrances work to give you an idea to get one but at the end you have to try them and see what you like. Fragrances are really personal and subjective, I could say fragrances is the most subjective thing besides art.
You have to take into account his general fanbase. IE: Clueless men who just wanna wear something nice to get laid. You can't much expect much critical thinking from these people. They just wanna hop on whatever is hot for instant approval.
He got me blind buying Salvatore Ferragamo F Black which I hated whilst saying don't but Prada Luna Rossa Black which I love, just shows he can get it wrong, people need to form their own opinions without seeking his validation
@@dzdz773 Yeah its the Pac Man edition,I got it from my bro for birthday,he doesent know anyithing about frags,he just said that he thinked it smelled good.
I can think of a lot of classical music that would similarly fall under this category: pieces that are brilliantly written, but have been repeatedly played to death, are in every movie soundtrack, and have since become cliché.
Tip: I always buy samples before buying the full bottle because you might love the opening notes at the shop but might end up hating the middle or bottom notes.
The ingredients that are used cannot be harmful to you otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to sell it. I get your comment was probably a joke but it wasn't a very thought out joke.
brendan vannyss are you both being serious? They ban ingredients all the tome for being damaging, so how do you know they have not discovered a ingredient that is currently in fragrances,
@@RowanBoc Oakmoss was banned because it "could" cause up to 3% of the EU population to have an allergic reaction. Now that is a very small percentage and it shouldn't have been banned for that reason. If you know you're allergic then stop buying colognes that have that ingredient in it. Oakmoss was one of the ingredients that made creed aventus so amazing and that's why it lasted so long and projected like a nuclear bomb back in the day before it was banned.
brendan vannyss yeah all I’m saying is science makes new discoveries all the time and I would imagine that his nose and health could be damaged by the long term smelling of fragrances but probably not in a major way, like u ever go into a department store fragrance section bc and after a while u get a headache imagine that in a regular basis over years
YSL Y, edt & edp is what got me started in the fragrance world, will forever be one of my all time favourites, ive had it last over a week on some clothes and easily 6-9 hours on my skin, i'd say the performance is there also got TONS of compliments, i guess cologne works different on various skins & bodies! (Just bought another edp ysl y bottle today! After running out of the edt, i decided to give the edp a try and i must say it is much, much, much better than the edt!!)
@@RoyalVoltage i definitely got more compliments on the EDT than the EDP but for the longevity and performance EDP takes the cup, EDT was what started me so it will forever hold a special place in my heart!
I loved Obsession by Calvin Klein as a young man. In fact, I kept one of the classic bottles of it for years and years, with a little left in it, from 1991, and still had it up to 2016. I left my partner smell it one day: "That smells old" was the verdict. I don't know why, but I love the smell of my mother's Elizabeth Taylor Passion; I liked Narciso Rodriguez for women, but the male version is just too musky for me. And I like the Cartier perfumes
My first "real" (so no bought from Hollister) cologne was Obsession. My grandfather wore it, my dad wears it, and even my stepmom's dad apparently wore it. My grandpa got a bottle shortly before his death so I have the remainder of the bottle and use it sparingly. It still smells normal to me. Though it's at least 7 years old now.
Love the heart you show by being honest about what’s good and what’s not in your opinion. Too many fragrance influencers are scared to say they don’t like something. Thanx Jeremy…
I think the cucumber note saves Polo Blue from being too much of a basic aquatic. Still a reliable summer freshie for me. Haven't tried Fahrenheit EDP but heard it leaves out the "gasoline" note in the EDT. Sounds off-putting, smells awesome.
Polo Blue is still one of my all time favs. Im not a big fragrance guy but do like polo blue and Armani. Actually also love Lacoste Blanc for the price.
Polo Blue was my first fragrance so it holds sentimental value to me. I don’t reach for it much at all these days because the performance isn’t good. What’s frustrating is that I don’t remember it being so bad when I first bought it in 2002... I guess all the reformulations watered it down.
Jeremy, you are absolutely right about those fragrances that trap you with a great opening but later end up having no performance at all🤬 Great video as always!!!
I just tried Ice Blue Aqua Velva for the first time. I was very impressed. For a $5 bottle of after shave the complexity of the scent was amazing. I also aquired a bottle of 1709 gianno fabina eu de cologne. I have yet to try it though. Some of those drug store fragrences are worth trying. They are staples for a reason.
Michelle Sui if it’s your second language but don’t use it quite often, you can lose the knowledge of it. Simple to pick up because it’s used everywhere but if you don’t use it, you lose it:)
Great command of a second language? He's quite often searching for words and makes either grammatical mistakes or says a phrase wrong, eventually uses a literal translation from German which doesn't exist in English. You have very low standards.
I bought Jimmy Choo Man Intense EDT a couple of days after trying it out at a store and bought it online a month or so later. As much as I like the sweetness of the initial spray I don't feel like it lasts that long. I think it's got to do with the nozzle and how it makes the perfume spread
One thing to remember is that cologne is heavily factored upon you. Your chemistry will determine how it wears. My friend can wear Dior Sauvage and smell absolutely amazing. On me? It smells average and doesn't last long.
I can agree with Jeremy on YvesSaintLaurent Y. I bought it a couple of days ago and I really liked the beginning but after about an hour or two, the smell really died down. You had to get really close to smell it. Meanwhile my uncle had Creed Aventus on and he had sprayed it in the morning and it was night already and it still smelled lile he sprayed it an hour ago. I was really hoping for better longetivity from Y but it just dissapointed me. I like polo ultra blue and polo gold blend but I can also agree that gold blend does have a shower gel smell.
I was given a free bottle of YSL Y EDT from a major retailer long story, smelt great but gone in 30mins but they finally got it right with Ysl Y edp. Now that lasts all day.
The Tiffany's smells absolutely gorgeous when it first goes on but as you have pointed out I usually have to re-apply every 2 hours and it'll be gone for good at the end of the day. Really sad because the juice itself is so intriguing.
I really like the new style of how you’re presenting yourself in your newest videos. I had unsubscribed as I no longer liked watching your approach in your videos but resubscribed after seeing you in this video. Keep up this demeanour, it makes you much more likeable. Respect from Canada 🇨🇦❤️
I am obsessed with Polo Blue, my dad used to use it all the time when I was young and used to always spray some on me. now I finally got around to buying it for myself! but everyone can have their own opinions 🤷
I HATE Thierry Mugler Angel, the original. It gives me the worst headache and nausea of ANY perfume I've tried. 🤮 I kept it for a year and just could not find any season that I could tolerate it, so I sold it on ebay. Just too much of everything.
My very first fragrance, was Polo Black. Every single time I smell it I get goosebumps, but I do think it is because it has a strong memory attached to it. Thanks to that very fragrance I discovered to Alpha M. Searching for a way to correctly apply fragrance, a video of him popped up and so my style-fragrance journey took to fly. And Polo Blue, I have it and when I smell it, I just reminisce about my father and it is just marvellous. Fragrances are certainly bond to memories, and those two... Never in my whole life would I let them go. Thank you for reading :)
I hate D&G Light blue. I had it growing up and one time I put TWO sprays on and all day people around me said “someone put on too much after shave” I was traumatized and I didn’t really enjoy the smell either to be honest. I was just a 15 year old and that’s what I got in my Christmas stocking.
@@peternakic5049 agreed even the light blue intense has weak performance. love the smell but it gets me like 3 hours usually so idk how someone said they smelt too much after shave
No offense but I always thought polo was cheap mans cologne. Similar to CK. Only cheap one I liked back in the day was Curve which I have passed on to my younger bros 😁
I have had quite a few fragrances that kind of make me feel dirty, like I need to wash my face. Not sure how to describe what I mean but kind of oily on my skin, Tom Ford Black Orchid is one of them. Maybe like it’s too heavy or thick I’m not sure. A video about that would be great so I could avoid it in the future please! Absolutely love your advice Jeremy, please keep it coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yep, that‘s right. They are really generic however they‘ve been around for donkeys ears on the market and quite popular among thousands of not-fragrance fans. Moreover, there‘re a plenty of fragrances that smell classic without doubt.
Abercrombie Fierce has been around for awhile and I have to agree, it was very strong when I bought a bottle years ago. I just sampled some and ended up buying a bottle. I don't know if they re formulated it, but it seems a bit smoother and less offensive. Gets a lot of compliments!
I agree, pllease make more of these. I bought Aqua Di Gior 3 years ago as I loved it back then. It was my go to ET perfume. It barely lasts an hour, so disappointing and it costs so much here in South Africa. However I got of those small travel spray bottles and carry it with me. Disappointing as compared to the older one that used to last the whole day and stayed in your clothing for days as well. I absolutely hate Fahrenheit. My Uncle used to wear it and I used to get a migraine whenever he visited, so intense it is.
Hi Jeremy..i'm from Kuala Lumpur Malaysia..every people have their own taste..i've been using Christian Dior Fahrenheit for more than 18 years..never change that..for me, the Fahrenheit smell is out of this planet and people's around me always give me too much compliments about this fragrance..
Perhaps you misunderstood him, he said that Farenheit is a great fragrance, that is the edt version. I love it too. His complaint is on the edp version which he said it’s too strong it give him a headache. His choice.
For me, its ok if u have the edp version, but u cannot apply it too much, just for 3-4 spray, and its fine. Cuz edp is a little bit too strong but honestly. I like edp more than edt cuz edp longetivity is better than edt. Perfomance is important more than anything
I grew to like polo black.. For some weird reason it ended up smelling super fresh , like cotton and blueberries or something.. It always got me a lot of compliments but the performance isn't that great.. But i gotta say polo black worked well with me.
I recently bougth dolce gabbana light blue intense because of all the good reviews The opening, the first 40seconds are nice but after that it just smells bitter to me. The bitterness in this frag in my opinion overcomes and after that lays quite Heavy in the Air.... Or do I need to get Used to it!?
The fragrance house I despise is surprising: Diptyque. Early on in my fragrance journey I blind bought Eau De Sense. I hated it. I dislike juniper and that fragrance helped me figure that out. Then I tried a decant of Philosykos… more green leaves. Then I tried Do Son. Idk if I got the wrong formulation but it was just more watery green nonsense. I actually like green fragrances but the whole house smells like a botany class.
@Dz ntz Wow that sounds pretty. I love the way actual roses smell. Or used to smell before they started breeding the smell out of them. Which I’ll never understand.
One of your most practical videos, I know many people who bought cologne that smelled great in the store with opening note and then discovered later those didn’t last for even 1 hour!
THIS content should be put out more Jeremy, keep it real dude ! It’s not always about the good stuff, point out the bad stuff as well so we have a better understanding of what not to buy lol. 👍🏼👍🏼
Gucci Flora roped me in. Tried it in the profumeria--beautiful, long-lasting, delicate scent. Bought it and it was like spraying water on me, nothing. I thought it might have been because I was wearing it that I couldn't smell it on me. I asked my friends if they liked my new perfume to which they replied "What perfume?" So that's it, I will never be roped in by Gucci again
I have to disagree, the original Gucci Flora has been my signature for years. On my skin it lasts for hours, and I have been told several times that the people around me associate the smell with me. I guess it depends on the person :)
I’m instantly attracted to any man wearing polo blue. Since university, every time I passed a man wearing this, my head would turn and follow him. When I married my husband I decided to gift him this fragrance and he has worn it ever since 😍 almost 10 years now
Hi Jeremy, I love Fahrenheit on my man, but Eau de toilette !! It's so different from Eau de parfum that is makes it so much better and the performance is that of an edp.
My wife recently got me YSL Y and I’ve gotten many compliments on it. It doesn’t last too long on me, maybe around 4-5 hours which is okay. Other than that I enjoyed the video ha!
Hi Jeremy ,you are allowed to say you do not care for these ones. I am a grandmother and take care to smell nice!!!I agree with you when a fragrance does not last is a waste of money. Plus awful if you get headache or to potent.I appreciate your opinion. Thank you so very much.
Armani code original blend is one of the best performance fragrances on me, last a good 8-9 hours, then fades to subtle. Still smellable after 12hours on skin.
Definitely keep doing your hits and misses Jeremy. While there will always be those who will disagree or even get upset, if you frame your criticism that can be helpful to both the consumer and even the creator of the product.
Thank You for this review. It would be interesting to hear about women's fragrances without performance, like those cats in a back and trap us with top notes only🤗
I am assuming he meant the YSL Y EDT because I recently bought the YSL Y EDP and it practically lasts the whole day and the dry down is just superb. So for those who love Y, just go straight for the EDP.
Polo Blue EDT was the first fragrance that I really loved. Until now I'm still using it. But I'm liking the EDP better now. I get a lot of compliments from people.
Gucci guilty Intense is one of those scents that smell good but doesn't have the performance you'd expect from a Gucci product. I'll buy the original to see if it's better. That's my Opinion keep the Vids coming Jeremy (Tom Brady of fragrance).
I have many colognes, both designer and niche alike. While in a Zara store on 5th avenue, I came across the cologones they offer. I fell in love instantly. I purchased 2, for 19.99 each I believe. As a younger guy, I noticed that girls my age prefered the colognes from Zara as the "younger" smell attracted them. If You are from the ages 16-27, I think Zara Colognes are the way to go for an everyday use. They are very simple and minimalist colognes that most women prefer. My designer fragrances are too sophisticated for a 17 year old girl too understand and truly enjoy it. As a fragrance enthusiast, I suggest having 3-4 Designer fragrances for special nights, such as weekend dates, parties, and interviews, and a few cheap fragrances like Zara and maybe even Perry Ellis if you can lean towards a bit more. This way you save money and still always smell great! In conclusion, Zara offers a long lasting sexy cologne that will attract every female and is suitable for most situations, in fact, all, for a remarkable fraction of the cost of a designer fragrance.
Benjamin Monessa I wouldn’t say designer colognes are too sophisticated. Women love sweeter scents like ultra male and of course 1 million but ultimately I think it’s better to wear what you think smells good. I don’t think there’s anything wrong adding sophistication to your arsenal
I was wearing polo blue the other day, I got asked by a lady what it was. I was shocked she would even ask because it smells so generic, I hesitated for a minute told her polo blue. She said she loved it of course she did, but I smelt like I just took a shower, if I had told her that she probably would’ve believed it
It's funny, I can't really smell, though different things with different scents... I kind of got used to how they "feel." So I can definitely tell the difference between bleach and something like Listerine. The problem is, that the rancid smells go in just like the silky great ones and I have to discern it by getting that smooth smell and then being nauseated. Point is (I know, too late), I actually had a bottle of Fahrenheit and despite being a huge Dior fan, I couldn't bring myself to going back to it. The few times I wore it (Dow to half a bottle), I found it to be too... I want to say "Sharp" if that makes sense. Whereas something like Dior Homme or Armani Code is more my style, as it goes in rather silky. Also, it didn't help that women around me kept commenting on how it's something their fathers wore. Though ultimately, that sharpness is what caused me to consider that it's not very "me."
I went to the store as you recommended. I LOVE Scandel .. but HATED Alien !! I have a list to continue to try as per your suggestions !! Thanks for doing the leg work for us ladies !!,ll
I just bought Dunhill Century! However, I understand what you are saying. The first time I wore it, I did not like it. It smelled odd. The second time I wore it, I liked it. So, I’m still confused about whether I like that one or not. 🤷♂️
I did not notice which Tiffany you have, I have the latest one, and it smell great! Classy and smooth, juicy in the beginning, powdery and clean in the development. It simply smells of style and luxe, not loud, but really chic.
That room probably smells like Paris Fashion Week
That’s a good one 😂

The Tiffany's smells absolutely gorgeous when it first goes on but as you have pointed out I usually have to re-apply every 2 hours and it'll be gone for good at the end of the day. Really sad because the juice itself is so intriguing.
I still get so many compliments from Polo Black whenever I wear it. To each his own.
I love it , and most Polo fragrances
I love it
Ralph Lauren is a filthy trash brand. Just wearing the clothes is disgusting.
@@gurkensohn9401 Wow someone really hates Ralph Lauren 😂
I really like the new style of how you’re presenting yourself in your newest videos. I had unsubscribed as I no longer liked watching your approach in your videos but resubscribed after seeing you in this video. Keep up this demeanour, it makes you much more likeable. Respect from Canada 🇨🇦❤️
1:58 totally thought he was going to throw that bottle into outer space lmaoooo
Looool
🤣🤣🤣
I am obsessed with Polo Blue, my dad used to use it all the time when I was young and used to always spray some on me. now I finally got around to buying it for myself! but everyone can have their own opinions 🤷
Polo red is great also
I love the blue as well. I bought it and hid it from my parents when I was in 9th grade 😂
Blue is good but its like too common as he said since so many uses it.🤔
@@johncalhoob1582 woah really lol I hate the black and Green my other favorite is Ralph’s Club and ultra blue
I HATE Thierry Mugler Angel, the original. It gives me the worst headache and nausea of ANY perfume I've tried. 🤮 I kept it for a year and just could not find any season that I could tolerate it, so I sold it on ebay. Just too much of everything.
My very first fragrance, was Polo Black. Every single time I smell it I get goosebumps, but I do think it is because it has a strong memory attached to it.
Thanks to that very fragrance I discovered to Alpha M. Searching for a way to correctly apply fragrance, a video of him popped up and so my style-fragrance journey took to fly.
And Polo Blue, I have it and when I smell it, I just reminisce about my father and it is just marvellous.
Fragrances are certainly bond to memories, and those two... Never in my whole life would I let them go.
Thank you for reading :)
I get it completely .Sflowers Elizabeth Arden is my wedding day perfume one spray and I'm back !
“Hi, ladies and German”
I hate D&G Light blue. I had it growing up and one time I put TWO sprays on and all day people around me said “someone put on too much after shave” I was traumatized and I didn’t really enjoy the smell either to be honest. I was just a 15 year old and that’s what I got in my Christmas stocking.
I don't like either.
Where the hell do you live where 2 sprays of light blue is too much?
@@peternakic5049 agreed even the light blue intense has weak performance. love the smell but it gets me like 3 hours usually so idk how someone said they smelt too much after shave
@@peternakic5049 some people find it vulgar if they can smell perfume on you.
@@MiamiPush2theLimit Some people are very miserable hahaha
Hey Jeremy, Please make a video on Mon Guerlain ETP and Mon Guerlain Bloom Of Rose EDT. Thanks.
Versace Eros is Very Very Very good👌. When I sprayed it on prom. Literally everyone was amazed by the smell.
I truly love and respect your honesty. I’d like to see more videos like this where you list fragrances that you’re not crazy about.
YSL Y - I like it a lot, it's the best. I dislike Dior Sauvage big time. Fragrance is really personal.
When he sprayed polo blue I thought he was about to throw it
If you watch jeremy videos enough you will know he is doing tht to attract the scents in the air hehe
No offense but I always thought polo was cheap mans cologne. Similar to CK. Only cheap one I liked back in the day was Curve which I have passed on to my younger bros 😁
DenisK man curve brings back memories lol, I used to wear it in high school a lot.
I have had quite a few fragrances that kind of make me feel dirty, like I need to wash my face. Not sure how to describe what I mean but kind of oily on my skin, Tom Ford Black Orchid is one of them. Maybe like it’s too heavy or thick I’m not sure. A video about that would be great so I could avoid it in the future please! Absolutely love your advice Jeremy, please keep it coming 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Aventus does that to me
6:36 “I just don’t like it”
Thats one of my favs tho 🥺
Armani Code when it *FIRST* came out, amazing! It’s undeniably 100000000% has been reformulated and doesn’t even smell not even a HINT of the og
You should definitely rank the hugo boss fragrances, love from finland!
Yep, that‘s right. They are really generic however they‘ve been around for donkeys ears on the market and quite popular among thousands of not-fragrance fans. Moreover, there‘re a plenty of fragrances that smell classic without doubt.
Abercrombie Fierce has been around for awhile and I have to agree, it was very strong when I bought a bottle years ago. I just sampled some and ended up buying a bottle. I don't know if they re formulated it, but it seems a bit smoother and less offensive. Gets a lot of compliments!
I always watch your youtube channel. Love the way you pronounce, "zero performance."
Zeeee’ho
I agree, pllease make more of these. I bought Aqua Di Gior 3 years ago as I loved it back then. It was my go to ET perfume. It barely lasts an hour, so disappointing and it costs so much here in South Africa. However I got of those small travel spray bottles and carry it with me. Disappointing as compared to the older one that used to last the whole day and stayed in your clothing for days as well. I absolutely hate Fahrenheit. My Uncle used to wear it and I used to get a migraine whenever he visited, so intense it is.
I always get compliments when I wear Armani Code. Very long lasting as well.
Make a video about the top 5 fragrances you disbelief that would ever be replaced by any other following fragrances, 10 years from now.
Hi Jeremy..i'm from Kuala Lumpur Malaysia..every people have their own taste..i've been using Christian Dior Fahrenheit for more than 18 years..never change that..for me, the Fahrenheit smell is out of this planet and people's around me always give me too much compliments about this fragrance..
I can't more agree, my father Allah y rahmou used to buy this perfume and it now reminds me of him
Perhaps you misunderstood him, he said that Farenheit is a great fragrance, that is the edt version. I love it too. His complaint is on the edp version which he said it’s too strong it give him a headache. His choice.
For me, its ok if u have the edp version, but u cannot apply it too much, just for 3-4 spray, and its fine. Cuz edp is a little bit too strong but honestly. I like edp more than edt cuz edp longetivity is better than edt. Perfomance is important more than anything
TH-cam recommeded me this video today, after a year. I love it ❤️
Thank You.
I grew to like polo black.. For some weird reason it ended up smelling super fresh , like cotton and blueberries or something.. It always got me a lot of compliments but the performance isn't that great.. But i gotta say polo black worked well with me.
I recently bougth dolce gabbana light blue intense because of all the good reviews
The opening, the first 40seconds are nice but after that it just smells bitter to me.
The bitterness in this frag in my opinion overcomes and after that lays quite Heavy in the Air....
Or do I need to get Used to it!?
The fragrance house I despise is surprising: Diptyque. Early on in my fragrance journey I blind bought Eau De Sense. I hated it. I dislike juniper and that fragrance helped me figure that out. Then I tried a decant of Philosykos… more green leaves. Then I tried Do Son. Idk if I got the wrong formulation but it was just more watery green nonsense. I actually like green fragrances but the whole house smells like a botany class.
@Dz ntz Wow that sounds pretty. I love the way actual roses smell. Or used to smell before they started breeding the smell out of them. Which I’ll never understand.
One of your most practical videos, I know many people who bought cologne that smelled great in the store with opening note and then discovered later those didn’t last for even 1 hour!
Thx for the compliment
Aqua di gio Quickest bottle I went thru Great smell Lacking performance
THIS content should be put out more Jeremy, keep it real dude ! It’s not always about the good stuff, point out the bad stuff as well so we have a better understanding of what not to buy lol. 👍🏼👍🏼
Gucci Flora roped me in. Tried it in the profumeria--beautiful, long-lasting, delicate scent. Bought it and it was like spraying water on me, nothing. I thought it might have been because I was wearing it that I couldn't smell it on me. I asked my friends if they liked my new perfume to which they replied "What perfume?" So that's it, I will never be roped in by Gucci again
Oh wow gucci flora did me dirty too. Beautiful fragrance but zero staying power.
I have to disagree, the original Gucci Flora has been my signature for years. On my skin it lasts for hours, and I have been told several times that the people around me associate the smell with me. I guess it depends on the person :)
I love Gucci Bloom and it lasts for ages.
I’m instantly attracted to any man wearing polo blue. Since university, every time I passed a man wearing this, my head would turn and follow him. When I married my husband I decided to gift him this fragrance and he has worn it ever since 😍 almost 10 years now
Hi Jeremy, I love Fahrenheit on my man, but Eau de toilette !! It's so different from Eau de parfum that is makes it so much better and the performance is that of an edp.
My wife recently got me YSL Y and I’ve gotten many compliments on it. It doesn’t last too long on me, maybe around 4-5 hours which is okay. Other than that I enjoyed the video ha!
What John Varvatos, Creed, Chanel and Parfums de Marly are doing on your desk?
My advice for the Farenheit EdP -> mix it 1:1 with the EdT and for me it then smells very close to the first formulation.
Your videos inspired me to stack perfumes! I started with a lot of blind buys from your suggestions and I must say I loved them all
Hi Jeremy ,you are allowed to say you do not care for these ones. I am a grandmother and take care to smell nice!!!I agree with you when a fragrance does not last is a waste of money. Plus awful if you get headache or to potent.I appreciate your opinion. Thank you so very much.
Armani code original blend is one of the best performance fragrances on me, last a good 8-9 hours, then fades to subtle. Still smellable after 12hours on skin.
I no longer wear Polo Black but before reformulation it was my most complimented fragrance! Even more than Sauvage! 😂
Definitely keep doing your hits and misses Jeremy. While there will always be those who will disagree or even get upset, if you frame your criticism that can be helpful to both the consumer and even the creator of the product.
Thank You for this review. It would be interesting to hear about women's fragrances without performance, like those cats in a back and trap us with top notes only🤗
Ok I don’t know if you’ve ever done female version of fragrances you don’t like but I would be interested to see 🤩
I am assuming he meant the YSL Y EDT because I recently bought the YSL Y EDP and it practically lasts the whole day and the dry down is just superb. So for those who love Y, just go straight for the EDP.
Yes that is the edt, it’s has the light colored bottle/juice, the edp has a darker bottle
I was waiting for you to pull up that John Varvatos Artisan! That frag reminds me of old people on a beach. Lol
Congratulations on 800.000+ followers!! You are the best Jeremy!!🍀🍀
I agree 100% "A fragrance can NEVER be too strong" -JF
Amen
Strength.
All I want to know is; does that room smell exactly a Macy’s perfume department ?
Looks a lot healthier than he does now
Just like Montblanc starwalker, beautiful sent but not performance. What's the point in that?
I find Joe Malone doesn’t last at all. Then again I don’t think any thing last on me. What’s your thoughts on Joe Malone.
Polo Blue EDT was the first fragrance that I really loved. Until now I'm still using it. But I'm liking the EDP better now. I get a lot of compliments from people.
"A perfume can never be too strong", 30 seconds later "this perfume is too dense, it gives me a head ache" =S
Gucci guilty Intense is one of those scents that smell good but doesn't have the performance you'd expect from a Gucci product. I'll buy the original to see if it's better. That's my Opinion keep the Vids coming Jeremy (Tom Brady of fragrance).
Hi Jeremy, could you make a video about Zara fragrances please
I have many colognes, both designer and niche alike. While in a Zara store on 5th avenue, I came across the cologones they offer. I fell in love instantly. I purchased 2, for 19.99 each I believe. As a younger guy, I noticed that girls my age prefered the colognes from Zara as the "younger" smell attracted them. If You are from the ages 16-27, I think Zara Colognes are the way to go for an everyday use. They are very simple and minimalist colognes that most women prefer. My designer fragrances are too sophisticated for a 17 year old girl too understand and truly enjoy it. As a fragrance enthusiast, I suggest having 3-4 Designer fragrances for special nights, such as weekend dates, parties, and interviews, and a few cheap fragrances like Zara and maybe even Perry Ellis if you can lean towards a bit more. This way you save money and still always smell great! In conclusion, Zara offers a long lasting sexy cologne that will attract every female and is suitable for most situations, in fact, all, for a remarkable fraction of the cost of a designer fragrance.
Benjamin Monessa I wouldn’t say designer colognes are too sophisticated. Women love sweeter scents like ultra male and of course 1 million but ultimately I think it’s better to wear what you think smells good. I don’t think there’s anything wrong adding sophistication to your arsenal
I was wearing polo blue the other day, I got asked by a lady what it was. I was shocked she would even ask because it smells so generic, I hesitated for a minute told her polo blue. She said she loved it of course she did, but I smelt like I just took a shower, if I had told her that she probably would’ve believed it
It's funny, I can't really smell, though different things with different scents... I kind of got used to how they "feel." So I can definitely tell the difference between bleach and something like Listerine. The problem is, that the rancid smells go in just like the silky great ones and I have to discern it by getting that smooth smell and then being nauseated.
Point is (I know, too late), I actually had a bottle of Fahrenheit and despite being a huge Dior fan, I couldn't bring myself to going back to it. The few times I wore it (Dow to half a bottle), I found it to be too... I want to say "Sharp" if that makes sense. Whereas something like Dior Homme or Armani Code is more my style, as it goes in rather silky. Also, it didn't help that women around me kept commenting on how it's something their fathers wore. Though ultimately, that sharpness is what caused me to consider that it's not very "me."
Let’s be honesty here Jeremy......you’re well qualified to discuss bad /disliked fragrances even if it is a personal preference thing.
When are we getting best winter women's perfume 2019 :)
I went to the store as you recommended. I LOVE Scandel .. but HATED Alien !! I have a list to continue to try as per your suggestions !! Thanks for doing the leg work for us ladies !!,ll
I have quite an eclectic mix (Creed, TF etc. etc.) but I do love a drop of old skool Kouros and Jazz now and then 🤗
I just bought Dunhill Century! However, I understand what you are saying. The first time I wore it, I did not like it. It smelled odd. The second time I wore it, I liked it. So, I’m still confused about whether I like that one or not. 🤷♂️
Its great
Jeremy, regards From México City. One question, what other alternativas are there For Armani Code? Thanks
armani code cologne
I did not notice which Tiffany you have, I have the latest one, and it smell great! Classy and smooth, juicy in the beginning, powdery and clean in the development. It simply smells of style and luxe, not loud, but really chic.
