Women React To Affordable Mens Fragrances
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- We are back again with another blind reaction video. In this video, we picked out 7 affordable men's fragrances for women to react to. Each guest was given 2 test strips for each fragrance. The 1st strip is sprayed on 10-30 seconds before, and the 2nd strip was sprayed an hour before each guest sat down to give it a chance to dry down. After a quick break, they then will go back and smell them all again to decide what is their favorite and least favorite. We hope you enjoy it!

Need a wider demographic of women. Women in their 40's, 20's 30's, and from different social economic back grounds. This all plays a difference in opinions.
I think the demographic of women they have is great! especially for the demographic of men who are watching this. Maybe a single lady in her 40s but that seems niche and this group seems very well chosen and streamlined.
Bro thinks this is a thesis 💀
@@wafflegod13 Who sent you the data reflecting the demographic of the men watching this?
No
I agree. I would use women of at least three generations.
The magic of Ferragamo F Black and Club de Nuit is on the sillage, not good on paper but very nice sillage on the skin, two of the most compliment getters of my collection
Fr great fragrances
Thats why it's terrible to test theses on strips. Anything for that matter
That's why people should waft the strips instead of smelling it straight on. People forget that people don't literally smell it on our skin. Some perfumes smell different in the air (sillage) than on my skin. soemtimes i would be like dang that smells really good but when i smell directly on my own skin, it will be a totally differnet experience.
Agree 💯
Fr these aren't 2 accurate I wouldn't base my opinion over what they think at all
I like that stylish cool woman with the blonde hair. She’s so straight to the point and honest and it’s so great to listen to! Her opinions are great.
They got the same outfit on in every video so far lol you’re telling me they recorded all those in one day? Savages
True.
Can we just cut the BS and give Tressa her own channel / show / series. Absolutely amazing
Yes please
She’s so bad!😩😩
I tune in for her
Erica is the finest
Tressa ftw!
Interesting how Explorer & CDNIM get such different reviews but they're both based of Aventus 🤣
I was thinking the same thing. Because I’ve smelled both and they smell very very close to me
@@sonofamarley4910 its because they use the edt version of cndim which is notorious for it's insanely harsh opening
@@GiacomoMiola My wife always compliments CDIM when I wear it.
It’s a fragrance that has to be on your skin for about twenty minutes and then it really gets going.
Because one uses better ingredients than the other. It's an earlier release formulation from Armaf. Even they make better clones of Aventus now that are less harsh like Bucephalous and CDNIM EDP. The EDT version is chemical trash that takes an hour or more to smell half way decent, whereas Explorer smells like Aventus from the first spray.
I always felt Explorer was a more tame, less loud, version of CDNIM.
And again - great video quality, nice frags presentation regarding design in the pictures, different and unique opinions on one scent. Thanks for this episode!)
i wear CDN Intense Man around my girlfriend, and she goes absolutely crazy for it. tried a lot of different scents, but she doesn’t say much about the others. CDN is her fav and does not stop complimenting me every time i put it on, without fail. she even contemplated buying a bottle to spray on her pillows when i’m not around. it’s interesting to see how so many “fav scents” are viewed differently by different people.
EDP or edt
That surprised me, too. CDNI gets rave compliments from women of all ages when I wear it.
Maybe it was a bad batch they had (?)
I hate to inform you that your girlfriend is actually your boyfriend.
With a profile picture like that u definitely
have no girlfriend
Nah CDN is a compliment getter women have stopped me and said I’m smelling good but personally it murdered my nose so I sold it to my friend because he had the same expi and loved it.
I just discovered your channel, I really like as a fragrance collector you give the best reviews as you use a panel of test people. This is the true test as it is more than one person’s opinion. You are becoming my go to for fragrance reviews. There is a lot out there, I like your style and what you are doing and it helps with choices when blind buying. What I have seen on your reviews is that most have different opinions in most cases when there is more than 2 choices consistency is much lower. This style of review is really helpful to us collectors. I agree on skin chemistry short story, I was wearing a Cologne and a coworker said I smell amazing and asked what I was wearing, So she could get it for her husband, a few weeks later she told me it was totally different on him, and she did not like it as much as it smelled on me.
The reactions to club de nuit intense man crack me up, I’ve never gotten a bad reaction from that scent, only ever been told I smell absolutely delicious 😆
Is it a compliment getters as they say?
@@suryanarayanan5158 HUGE compliment getter, I get a compliment every time I wear it.
cdnim is great in the air but not up close, thats why
Very true! It’s even better than montblanc explorer from experience, because it lasts longer and the dry down is way better on clothes and skin
@@nicolas.pascal i have both, i wear explorer but don't wear CDN, it smells way too synthetic for me, too sharp smelling
Love these kind of videos, keep them coming!
This format is simply the best. Home run!!
Another solid video. Would love to see the reactions of more affordable fragrances. (Also, the reaction to Nautica Blue was surprising in the good way.)
Great video just getting unbiased reactions from people who are not into fragrances is just so refreshing. Like I hear so much about Club de Nuit being great but then most stories about getting compliments for its just from other guys and now its getting trashed by every women in this video. You really get a different view after watching a few of these videos.
I thought CDNIM would be trashed because the opening is terrible IMO. However, the girls didn't skewer it as badly as I thought they would.
I first bought CDNIM off the hype, hated it in the first 15 minutes, then I go nose blind to it for the rest of the day. But believe me when I say this is my most complimented fragrance. Women constantly asking what it is so that they can purchase it for their bf/husband tho haha
Yes, love this format!
Great video
Love the format
I cannot believe you guys are still churning out content from one day of filming!! Great work.
love it, please do more of these type of videos
Who else would like to hear Courtney introduce each fragrance before the reviews?
nah. Her voice is too heavy on the vocal fry.
Great format. Teddy is my go to watch guy and now my go to fragrance guy.
please post more reactions, this is the best and freshest content in this space. hate seeing the same guy obsessed with fragrances ranting and raving about his own individual taste, love seeing different women (target audience) expressing their impressions of fragrances they have never smelt before. keep it up
Nautica Blue sales went up 200% after this vid 😄
LMAO prolly!!! Shit used to be at TJ maxx near me all the time haven’t seen it since! 😂😂😂
I got many compliments with CDNIM, the funny thing is, I got it only from men and ladies over the age of 40. Young women don’t like it that much here in Europe.
To me is the opposite, only young people like it, Italian here
@@GiacomoMiola I should have added central europe :D
In the Northeastern United States. CDNIM gets compliments from people 30 years old and above.
Try CDN silage, my wife goes nuts for it.
Facts!
Love these vids 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Abercrombie can’t go wrong or Mont Blanc explorer
Love this video concept and the ladies seemed knowledgeable and out fragrance. 👍
Love these videos. I feel like your channel growth proves what other reviewers with high aspirations should've realized years and years ago.
Great work!
Thank you, Russell!
biggest fan of your videos! they look honest!
great video and good test! I knew I liked this channel for a reason just realized where yall at.
Honestly the girl in black top has no sense of smell. Her description of notes doesn't make any sense at all. You guys should think about replacing her.
I agree she could be a smoker or inhale stuff
Nautica Blue 📈 after this video.
I like Nautica Blue, it's a nice fresh fragrance that retains it's masculine appeal and it's not too strong. If you're a nice gentleman you should wear a scent that isn't too loud.
Is it better than voyage?
@@DeadSensei8269 less fresh and warmer than voyage. But a more unique scent vs voyage
@@delonteeast7955 idk to me it just smelled like polo blue parfum while voyage smells a lot like cucumber and green leaves something I’ve never gotten from a blue fragrance but both are good I just personally prefer voyage
Nauticas are all the literal definition of the shit that preppy boy with the seashell and hemp rope necklace wears, that's why they all love it. It's because it is literally what that Hollister later to be frat bro is going to wear. No legitimately bougie grown ass man, let alone a gentleman, is going to spray Nautica on past the age of like 25 unless he absolutey does not give a shit, or he's enough of a drink he spent all his money on beer and is trying to hide the alcohol smell (I again wonder about these women and their exes), or because he's literally working in a restaurant kitchen alongside sweaty men and does not give af about anything other than just barely concealing his impending sense of swamp ass. It's like, basically just one single step above being into Axe and Old Spice still as a grown man, I think you should either be using Stetson or Drakkar Noir or something old many classic at that point, or getting a real fragrance that's cheap like Creamo Spice and Black Vanilla, or a clone of a real thing like Dossier or Lattafa, or at least if you're buying in Walmart and you're out of grad school you need to be picking up Mankind by Kenneth Cole or something.
It's not hard to smell decent. Idk Nautica just smells a combination of cheap and poor to me. I feel like I've had a taste of bougie to bydlo, and people who make real money as upwardly mobile yuppies are using Ellis Brooklyn or Initio or Tom Ford or something like that. It's just crazy to me, I thought these were mid to late 20s women? Are all of them like 21 years old and still remembering their jock HS boyfriend or something?
OP is right about not death choking everyone with your scent though, there is that. You're supposed to be discovered not announce yourself.
@@drek9k2boy, Nautica Blue really got you triggered huh. Sheesh, calm tf down.
Good vid. Love these.
High quality video. Keep up the good work
I am also a bit surprised by Nautica Blue reaction - everyone loved it! If only they knew the price! :D
It is some good shit
Fuck the price, there’s shitty hundred dollar fragrances
My man, its the cheapest fragance of the video so pretty much you're in luck if you wanna rock that fragance👌.
I believe its like 15 to 20 bucks
@@Batman.97 picked one up yesterday at Ross for $16
Probably lasts one hr
Cdnim in the dry down is magical. Absolutely love it
I have to agree on this... Can only be appreciated after an hour applying it..
@@mrbushido1768you need to wait for an hour, hahahaha
Wow didn't expect the outcome. !
Btw. If you show the name of the fragrance in constant it'll help the watchers 👌
I would love to see more videos like this ☺️
you guys seriously need to get new people on these videos.
Can you guys do one of these on niche fragrances? Would love to see some stuff like oud for greatness or just some more obscure fragrances like that
Please show the fragrance‘s name constantly
This video is very useful, thank you :D
These videos are amazing
Just ordered nautica blue!
I’m glad to see that someone finally decided to put Nautica Blue in a review instead of Voyage. I actually feel that Nautica Blue is a bit better. Idk why more ppl don’t talk about it especially for the Spring/Summertime. One of the best fresh Cheapies!
I owned Blue and didn't really like it. It smells fine but lasts literally an hour on my skin. Voyage lasts 5 hours easy.
I bought Blue because it was $15. Its okay. To me, it smells like what people put on after the gym.
Blue holds up 10 minutes vs 5 hours like Voyage
I love this kind of videos
Nautica Blue sales probably went through the roof with this vid.
No way, I’m was wearing CK One today when this came out, haha. And I like it! 💪🏼
Ditch that shit lol! It smells better on skin but way too feminine a scent no chick will respect that scent on a man
Everyone forgot about Man Blanc by the time they reached the end 😂
The ones that gets "love" seems to be the one that contain more synthetic compounds so what does that tell us... Not all high end designer and niche perfume are equally liked as hyped.
Scents have memory associations and if you are after compliments, save the bucks in your wallet, it's better to be clean and fresh with a EDT or aftershave you can reapply liberally as ladies always seems like a guy to be like that. But hey that my theory 🤷♂️😃
True..i hv bout a dozen of perfumes in my rotation right now, & Nautica Voyage is the least expensive between them, but my wife love it when I'm wearing voyage.. that's her favorite ...and yet they said nautica voyage smells ordinary & synthetic, but woman dig it🤷
I've thought this for a long time. Anything that's "challenging" or takes time to get used to, means actually stinks and is offensive to a good percentage of the population, all the time, and that included you before you got over that hump. mass appeal is a good characteristic but they make it out to be a con
I have another observation. The more something cost them, the more okay it is to be "basic" and singular. If it's cheap, it's criticized for not complex enough or too simple in the note breakdown. If it cost $400 and smells only like grapefruit rinds and nothing else, it's fantastic because it brings up images of grapefruit. When it's low dollar, it's citrus adhesive remover.
Your format is excellent; I think each of your reviewers have unique *natural* reactions to the scents.
Taken together, it's more valuable than an expert opinion.
Your reviewers ROCK! I can't help smiling as they remind me of the personalities of many of my friends. I feel like I *know* each one of your reviewers!!
Excellent content!
Would love to see their reaction to the entire Armaf Club De nuit line (i.e Milestone/Sillage too)
With Milestone,it should really only be considered on the dry down.
Opens harsh & not so good but the dry down is much different & far better.
up
Milestone smells like paint off the bat lol, and as for Sillage, it smells like something an old lady would wear, Sillage is just awful but Milestone is pleasant once it dry's down
NICE SELECTION for this video .. time to check this out !
Love these videos! Tressa's personality is awesome
I always have Nautica Blue in mty collection. Its very solid sporty and fresh clean.
Good video nice to see the tasteless group back sniffing again 🤣 I reckon you could give them a selection of different deodorants on test strips tell them they are men's fragrances in the same format as this or a similar one and they would go into equal detail about the scents as they have here and not know weren't designer or niche fragrances they'd probably get very animated describing a deodorant lol
Lol. Diaper cream. That made my day. May the 4th be with you
Many people dislike nautica blue, but damn it's so goood to me!
Mont Blanc exlporer fits the title u can’t stop smelling it once u spray it. Excellent fragrance
It’s amazing how women conjure up images of a man from just a smell
And yet they preach to men that we need to be accepting of all women of all kind etc
Those aren't even contradictory concepts? You an incel or something?
Just got CK One for testing, this’ll be interesting
Well there you go people.. Women like different fragrances. Just choose the one that you like best
I actually have #4 and #7. Used to like them but now only use them if I am getting out of the shower coming from the gym. I agree with both the pos and neg reactions on both. Because at some point and time I have felt the same at least twice.
Nautica should make and EDP version of thier Nautica Blue. Make it a little richer and longer lasting.
I think they'd likely do that with Voyage first though as that's their biggest seller. Give it time, I'd be shocked if this didn't happen.
Guys please do clone vs original blind reaction
DO MORE OF THESE 🙏🙏🙏
Diaper cream! 😄 I've heard that about Dunhill's Icon too. Floraly black pepper = no bueno? 🤔
Artisan Pure didn’t make it to this shoot! Bummer! But this made me curious of Nautica Blue 🤔
Club de nuitt smells like( Pledge.) The blind evaluation is the truth especially when they are separated . The chemistry & mystery of a fragrance make it great !!!
Score for probably the least expensive: Nautica Blue!
Such interesting opinions! I always thought Nautica Blue was too generic, but hey they like it here! A&F First Instinct gives me tamarind vibes!
If I may make a suggestion I mean it's great that their bling smelling this and everything but how about after they're done rating all the fragrances if you guys could just let them know what fragrances they were smelling like near the very end of the video I really want to see their reactions to what they just smelled but other than that great video
Have watched a couple of these videos now, and I enjoy them! One observation: The blond in the leather jacket is INTENSE! Like James Woods on Coke level of intensity! Not meant in a bad way or anything, but man...
Hot as hell too 😂😂😂 definitely a gold digger tho 😢
I love white floral and wear it for me. Calvin Klein One is my budget go to but I have recently replaced it with Phleur Hanami. Cavin Klein One Platinum and Calvin Klein all are honorable mentions woth the same DNA.
Stop the floral shit women hate it. If I can make a suggestion go Burberry London it smells like blueberry woods it’s amazing
Given it’s a budget baller about the same price maybe even cheaper than those. Best fragrance of all time IMO is Dior Sauvage Elixir but 165 for 2 oz is pricy I see why people shy away. It’s wellllll worth the money though.
Funny that I see nautica blue getting so much love after I just received voyage this morning..I wonder! 🤔
Nautica knows what the women like!
Surprised NO one liked Club de Nuit Intense.. considered the best aventus clone..
Same!
I find most of these women’s reactions to just about any fragrance strange.
It's not the best Aventus Clone. There are so many better ones...Pinapple Vintage makes a ton of better ones with different variations, Al Haramain, Afnan...the list goes on. It's just CDNIM is hyped. People reach for what the know not what's the best. Read reviews. Lots of people buy this garbage because it's hyped only to diss it, give it away or sell it because they hate it. It's trash. Even Aventus is considered an ok Frag. CDNIM...trash...it stinks for one hour before it becomes acceptable. There are better clones of Aventus that smell good from the first spray.
Just because CDNIM is the biggest selling Aventus Clone doesn't mean it's the best. It means that people have bought into the hype rather than checking the others. I'd personally put Explorer head & shoulders above CDNIM, every time. Sure, it costs a bit more, but the bottle's better & to me, it just smells better.
@@davekemp1808
The bottle is better?
You don't wear the bottle do you?
CDIM is much better than Explorer.
Lasts much longer too.
Do more. Their reaction is entertaining. 😂 Causal women don't care what you wear. As long as it's "easy" to their nose. But it's odd to me that they don't like Burberry Touch and calling it boring. It's barbershop like but not old school, peppery and a little sweetness at the dry down. Seems like they like the fruity and sweet frgrances. But the sweetness and be cloying and too youthful like A&F First Instinct.
Not the teacher leaning over you lmfao. She’s so odd
I get a lot of compliments when I wear nautica blue. I was debating on buying Burberry touch.
Burberry London is one of my go tos. It smells amazing on skin almost like blueberries but something else too to give it the masculine scent still
Keep in mind I own many 1,2 even 300+ dollar fragrances and Burberry London is really one of my favorites.
@@shanejones578 oh yeah I got Burberry London when I wear it my female friends like to sniff me or get close to me because it smells good to them.
@@nelsonmoore2999 I just picked up cremo bourbon and oak and dude it’s actually amazing. 13 bucks at TJ max so I decided to give it a shot, another fragrance that competes with anything under 100 dollars very well. Nice and masculine smell with a hint of vanilla or something
@@nelsonmoore2999 20 bucks online im going to order the cypress and blue cedar next and see how that one is
Can you say the name of the fragrances that they're sniffing during the "FRAGRANCE #x" part? I dont fully pay attention to the video and only listen to it most times.
Mont Blanc Explorer is absolutely amazing!
Funny that these women react to MB Explorer and Armaf CdN in very different ways
Keep em commin! Hey...where's Hallee?🥰😍🤩😅💗👍👍👍
Hallee moved away! So unfortunately she won’t be in these as much anymore.
It would be better if you could ask them at the beginning what kind of smells they like, what associations they have with certain notes, do they hate certain notes, what does “clean” and “refined” smell like to you etc. to somehow qualify their opinions because a lot of their descriptions are non-descriptive and have little to do with the actual scent. E.g ‘this smells expensive’’, ‘’that smells like someone who’s trying too hard, “that smells like someone who lives in a loft downtown” lol. What does that even mean. Granted, most women are into bubble gummy / aquatic / lightly citrusy fragrances, but at least knowing what they like to begin with will give you some context regarding their opinion.
Given that being interested in fragrances is not a prerequisite for being included in these videos I don't think you would get much from fragrance-oriented questions. Most would be confused and ask "What is a note? I thought we are talking about fragrances, not music today!" This was our second shoot ever of this style of video so we appreciate the feedback as we continue to refine it.
@@BaldassarreFragrance Hi sir! Can you include next Lacoste White, Mont Blanc Individuel, Dior Homme Intense, Dior Sauvage, Xerjoff Naxos, Mancera Cedrat Boise 😊🙏 Thank you!
Those non-descriptive stuff is the female brain at work. Not exact, not objective but instinctual and associative.
Guys don't worry for CDNIM. On paper the harsh opening is enhanced, plus they let it dry down only for 1 hour. When it dries on skin, is pure gold. The only fragrances that got me compliments.
Spraying something on and waiting for at least an hour and a half until it smells good defeats the purpose for me. Why even bother with it?
@@ilvean3122
It's very long lasting.
Nobody should buy fragrances on how they smell soon after applying.
It's all about the 'dry down' & longevity.
@@ilvean3122 it's good after 30 mins, to accelerate the process I spray it and slightly scrub it with my wrist
@glacamo miola Never rub your fragrance in. It’ll take away from the top notes.
So you basically have to smell like shit for an hour in order to smell kinda good after that. It sounds like a really bad exchange to me.
That’s because they are smelling it on paper not skin and the opening is harsh, I bought it about two years ago and the first time I wore it, I got a compliment 😆
Does any of these ladies even like fragrances at all?! A Japanese sensei is not this choosey!
The one in black is one of those women that doesn’t like ANYTHING JEEZ
Keep doing these. All these ladies are awesome!
Nautica Blue…are you freakin’ kidding me? Get some different nose.
@@jimmy5634 haha! Yes Nautica Voyage is a little bit of a joke. But they represent who is going to smell you at work, at play, or wherever else.
You should do a video with women who actually wears fragrances. This just seems to be for people who showers, and puts on deodorant
I listen to Tressa. No filter, which is good!
Do the prada luna rossa including the prada l homme and prada leau
Awesome video
Nautica Blue was my first ever fragrance, the aspect it's lacking is the sillage and the performance.
Surpringly even tho its cheap along with nautica, women love the smell of them both. over other aquatic scents
It’d be a badass fragrance if it had sillage and lasted honestly. I’d pay good money for that shit
Omg i cany believe they went crazy for nautic blue. That one of my least favorite nauticas. Its ok just gives me a headache. Tuff on my nasal passages. I may pick it up again just of this video
that nautica DNA is something else
My ex girlfriend used to wear CK One. It’s been 5 years and I still cannot smell it without remembering her.
I'd like to see how any of them reacted to Aventus and compare their reaction to CDNIM. I bought a CDNIM a few years ago (just out of curiosity because it was so cheap), and it's identical to any Aventus I've smelled. I never understood the Aventus mass appeal anyway, but I'll have to sift their previous videos to see (unless someone has already looked!).
Personally, I wouldn’t say it’s identical but it’s very very very close. Having smelled both, I’d say aventus is smoother than cdnim. The pineapple note is also more prominent in aventus but that’s very minuscule. I wanna see them react to aventus as well and see what they have to say.
@@lilmango8059 So very very very close isn't identical?
@@ricko2301 I’m sure you could figure that out.
@@lilmango8059 You said it's not identical but it's very very very close lmao. Apparently you have some figuring out to do.
There you go: /watch?v=DmL7zqzRXA4 and /watch?v=ohIRpLdzWa8 I have samples of both, they smell almost the same, Aventus smells a bit more natural but I don't think I'd be able to tell the difference between the two unless I have both in front of me to smell.
Hi, please do Lanvin Eclat D'arpege Pour Homme, Lacoste White, Leau D'Issey Pour Homme, Bucheron Jaipur EDP, Lalique Pour Homme or Encre Noir, Dior Homme Intense
Can you a similar video for Cremo fragrances?
Why the same panel?
