  • There can be too much of anything!
    Uncle Charles Walhingford explains how being a Fragrance enthusiast (Fraghead) can go wrong and how to whittle your collection down to a reasonable number.
    A fragrance is an accessory not the main focus of an out fit or ensemble. Your fragrance should finalize your presentation not the base of your look.
    Far too many UA-cam Creators and their followers dress like slobs and smell like a million bucks!
    You should look like a million bucks first!
    Furthermore, owning 20 or more fragrances becomes less fruitful when you don't have anymore money left to go out and utilize these wonderful scents.

    Great video. At the end of the day a fragrance is an accessory like a watch or Jordan’s.
    But people hyper focus on it…and miss the bigger picture. I’ve met fragheads in person who’ve had mustard stains on their shirt but at the same time wearing a $400 dollar scent….

    100% agree and this is coming from an ordinary everyday guy with a 100+ collection… I’ve committed to not purchasing anymore fragrances! Almost 3 years since I’ve purchased my last fragrances. Been selling off quite a few over the years

      How do you go about selling them?

    I can relate. I currently have 60 fragrances and most are 100 ml. I love the smell of 80% of them. Yet there’s no special occasions for me to wear all of them. It’ll probably take a couple of years before I burn through them. To top it off, I probably reach for the same 10 on the regular. I recently stopped purchasing them, from discounters of course. What helped me stop was me refraining from watching UA-camrs that review fragrances. So far so good.

      I've decluttered as well. I'm down to 6. Two are almost done. Once they're finished, I'm not replacing them. The 4 will be my go to. Fragrances are now being released by the dozen each day, so it's not worth anticipating any longer like we used to.

    My fragrance collection consists of no more than 25 fragrances mostly stuff i LOVE. If i end up with more, i sell to replace what I dont use. Thats how you control your addiction

      I like the tactics, but isn't "control your addiction" an oxymoron?

    I'm not totally following you. There is such a thing as too many bottles. Speaking personally, I simply enjoy using a new fragrance each day. I don't like using the same fragrances in short rotation. I dont need a special occasion or outfit to generically apply a fragrance. More power to those that do...
