    Thanks for sharing - it's amazing to me how similar your tastes and viewpoints are to mine! It makes your reviews of fragrances I haven't experienced that much more relevant to me.

    Thanks for answering my question, I really appreciate you including it. And although a few of the questions seemed a bit invasive, I appreciate your honesty and letting us get to know you on a more personal level. Again, thanks!

    Thanks for answering my questions! The rotating obsessions tagline have always intrigued me because I’m the same. From things that are ultra specific like speculative doorstopper fiction or Iranian cinema to things as basic as funko pops and fragrances and everything in between.
    I’ve always like how your background lighting and clothes seems intentional and match to the fragrance you’re reviewing. But those shots of you at end of this video holding the royal tobacco bottle with your shirt and the bare wall was very satisfying. 😂

    • @SeldomlyOften
      @SeldomlyOften  3 місяці тому

      Yeah I tried to keep it more generic but I can go into really niche and specific stuff for days or even weeks.
      I live in a very small apartment so I don’t have much space to set up a proper filming set. Gotta work with what you got 🙂

    Love the answers Daniel! Thank you for your candor and for tackling them all!! I'm with you on the aversion to redundancy btw. My problem is that I became too focused on the nuances. 😆200 bottles later...some...redundancy? 😂 Probably why I'm all about decants now. But just from your responses, I think you and I would get along juuuust fine. 👌 Ciao ciao!

    This was so interesting ! Answering 45 questions wasn’t an easy task. Again, like many people said in the comments, your approach of fragrances is singular, unusual. It is really pleasing to listen to. No hype, no reading of an inaccurate, never ending list of notes and c/p from a famous website… I am looking forward to see more !

      @@SeldomlyOften I do have 2 actually. You said you trade the fragrances that you don’t need anymore/dislike. How do you do that ? Are you using a dedicated platform ? Because I would be interested in trading too.
      And 2nd question, you mentioned buying fragrances on Notino. Did you have any problem with your purchases ? I heard and read a lot of mixed opinions about Notino (fake fragrances or bad storage conditions, mainly).
      Thank you :)

      @@Medoriel For trading I generally go for community sites such as Reddit and Facebook groups or on just on second hand, Craigslist style websites. This is really tied to your country.
      I never had any issues with Notino, mainly just rude customer service and response times (nothing critical, they just would not honor a discount code).

    A real polymath I see 👌Interestingly enough, my interest also started with Ombre Leather and it's my most favorite perfume up to this point still - and I do have an obsessive personality, too - once something peaks my interest, I can't stop obsessively spending thousand of hours researching, amassing knowledge given a certain topic, ever since I've been a small kid when I e.g. was interested in ancient Egypt or in reading and taught myself to read the newspaper at age 4 😅
