Thanks for all the great feedback so far on this. Also, a quick note about Lacoste, that is the EDT featured despite the textured pattern. We purchased the bottle in the last few months and it appears Lacoste has changed their packaging. Just wanted to add clarity on what was being tested.
The persona you choose for the video were great! I especially liked the overdone reaction and wild descriptions! Those gave the video some tention curve, you kind of where waiting for the next funny or extrovegant outbreak.
I like the opinions of the lady in leather jacket, she conceptualizes really well the smell and imagine the kind of person that would wear it. Shes actually contributes rather than doing a face and say it smells like cleanser or something else
idk to me her opinions were weird, like "if he wears x he's confident, knows where he's going" it's a perfume... There's probably men who will buy perfume just to emulate the vibe she's saying. I have to agree that she says which moment of the day the perfume could work but honestly listening to her I have no idea what the perfumes smelled like. It's like people saying Dior sauvage smell like sexyness and to me it smells like something I would use to kill mosquitoes😂
She’s just saying things to sound like she knows what’s she’s talking about. She’s not describing what she smells she is just saying if you wear this kind of scent your this kind of person which doesn’t make any sense.
@@nicolaskl9672 I disagree with your take. Nobody cares what you think. We watch these videos to get a varied consensus on what other people think of the fragrances we either like or dislike. You can hate Sauvage all you want, but if everyone in a video loves it them it might be wise to wear it anyway.
I agree. This is one of the best (if not the best), most entertaining segments in the UA-cam fragcomm. It's good to see a more "real world" reaction sometimes. ✌️
What a great style/concept. Love listening to the raw unbiased personal interpretation of the different fragrances. I’m curious if “an older” contestant will smell things differently🤔 Thank you Courtney and Teddy 😁
Smells don’t change because you age. Maybe ones preferences change but the smells are exactly the same. So ultimately it’s still a question of personal preference.
@@howtorawk oh absolutely, you are correct in your statement. It’s the change in personal interpretation that I’m interested in hearing. Younger demographics appear to like sweeter fruitier scents where older demographics appear to like more robust scents, of course generally speaking. So I’m curious to see if in a blind smell by an older demographic, are those notes still getting preferred.
If anyone is getting put off from getting light blue Eau intense just remember that its historically been way better smelling on skin/In the air rather than on the paper strip
Legend Spirit is a clone of Invictus Aqua that is a huge compliment puller and it smells amazing, but to see it the least favorite is a surprise tbh .. i guess before they smell it first they forget it about it. And the ones they smelled last are getting higher attention

That legend spirit goes crazy! Always have that in my house!
I've noticed people who do not have a developed nose tend to have more extreme reactions to perfumes. The more the nose becomes accustomed to the notes the less impactful and memorable, or even descriptive the perfumes become to that person. If your new to the scent game, enjoy the journey while you can.
YES! I’ve noticed this in myself the last year. First time at a fragrance counter I was like this smells like an old man etc. Now I’m like this smells like a dark oriental with a woodsy base and I enjoy a lot a fragrances I initially hated. and i’m bored of one’s I initially liked. It’s a fun journey but I feel like the extreme reactions phase is over for me now that i’ve smelled most categories and most major designer and niche brand offerings.
Keep in mind most people do not wear fragrances and do not have trained nose. So if you wanna smell good and not repel people, make sure to wear something mass appealing. But if you are only wearing for yourself only, then you can wear something for trained nose.
6. Dior Eau Sauvage Cologne: - central park NYC - fruity, comforting - luxury refinement, color red - musky thing - fresh, minty gumdrop vibes - pines of Alaska (cinnamon in a back-end) - baby powder, not masculine - grandma smell, jasmine What the hell are they smelling?! xD
As a genuine fraghead I find these blind tests very interesting. I know most of these scents that were tested as well as their actual notes. When you are not familiar with a wide range of notes you can only compare it to your personal frame if reference. You nose is just limited. That's why some of these comments are way off from the actual notes. The brain and nose need to learn and recalibrate with new scents and combinations just like with new flavors and the tongue. And if you tested them again in 2 or 3 weeks with the same frags their opinions would possibly alter slightly .
This proves that most people smell different things in the same spray. I guess it's all about having experience with different smells and knowing how to point them out...🤔
I love these videos, really enjoy the charming and eclectic group of personalities that you've brought together. For the fragrances that I own that are in the blind reaction, I smell along with the panel and often find myself thinking, "What are they smelling? What am I smelling?"
@@20biomed08 I bought a bottle of the new Bleu Electrique because people said it smelt like the old original. I'm not sure who said that first because it smells nothing like the original at all, it has completely different notes.
I love the blind tests. I'm new to collecting fragrances and what I've learned is that perfume is very subjective. So the question is do you wear a fragrance based on what you like or what gets you the most compliments. I'm wearing what I like all day, any day.
I have the 200ml of Legend Spirit and it’s my daily summer fragrance. Very cheap for a nice clean smell. Also have Luna Rossa Carbon for the summer. Can’t beat them for the price.
We have thought about this for a while. My hesitancy has been what type of panel should be smelling them. If you go younger you probably will get some pretty negative responses for many. We will do something at some point!
@@BaldassarreFragrance nooo do especially Younger People ! I Think it would be funny to see their reactions ... but also older people are intresting to watch
The thumbnail for the Lacoste is that for the L.12.12 Eau de Parfum Blanc. However the description is the the original Blanc EDT. Which one is everyone smelling? -Just so the viewers know for sure.
@@jkbsdasf yeah that confused me too...the picture they used is definitely the Blanc EDP...you can tell by the weird pattern on the front of the bottle. The EDT is just plain white bottle without any weird pattern, it's blank and smooth. Maybe that's where they got the name "blanc" from because it's a blank bottle.
Interesting cross section of people Courtney and Teddy. I love these vids because they all have candid responses and are very helpful in deciding how the various fragrances are going to smell to others around us-which to me, is important. Cheers from Toronto !
Loved their reaction to the bottles at the end :) As others have also mentioned I wouldn't mind seeing the same type of videos but with women's fragrances. Even though I'm a man, it's good to have an idea of what to get for your SO.
216...stannnnnnd up!! And for the first person, I'd disagree...as a bruh, a confident man wears more feminine/unisex challenging scents to get outta the stereotypical woodsy, leathery men's scent profiles. And I'm here for Gab all day...gotta marry that one.
Do you guys remember that Seinfeld episode where Kramer tries to sell the idea for a cologne that smells like the beach to some Calvin Klein executives, and they tell him it’s a stupid idea because who wants to smell like dead fish and seaweed? That’s exactly how I feel about Light Blue Eau Intense
I agree with most reviews DG Light Blue smells way better on skin and after it’s rested for about 30 minutes and smells better dry or later in the day. Also even after shower and relentless scrubbing you can still smell a faint sent of it still on the skin
I love light blue intense. Smells exactly like the word “beach.” Definitely my favorite cologne to rock in the heat Quick Edit: It’s weird but something about sea notes must smell masculine. My brother was once wearing Acqua Di Gio and a girl said he smelled like what a man should smell like. Light Blue Intense and Acqua Di Gio smell very similar to my nose and that’s actually why I got it. I wanted something that smelled like Acqua Di Gio but my brother already used it as his signature scent so I found Light Blue intense and absolutely loved it. Definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a scent like Acqua Di Gio but don’t want Acqua Di Gio
It's a fragrance that plays a lot with skin chemistry. To me it smells a lot of grapefruit on paper and opening, but on my skin after 30 minutes the juniper starts coming out and it becomes a juniper fragrance with citrus and sea notes. I also love it, it's my summer fragrance.
@@serdiezv I was at the gym once probably 10 or so hours after I applied it and the heat from working out caused it to project more on my god, the base smelled just as good as the opening and dry down. I’m wearing it right now and still believe this is just a masterpiece fragrance
Thanks for including Lacoste White. I hope do Moschino Toy Boy, Lanvin Eclat de Arpege, Dior Homme Intense, Ariana Grande Cloud, Dolce and Gabbana K, Leau d'Issey Miyake, Versace Blue Jeans, Ch Men Prive, Mancera Instant Crush, Prada Lhomme Leau, and Rochas Moustache EDP. Thanks Keep it up!
The girl who commented on D&G LB Intense, who said, “Wet Dog” vibe I almost fell out of my chair because thats EXACTLY the smell I get!! I thought maybe I just got a bad bottle or batch? But now I know it wasn’t just me. Weird how some noses like “wet dog” smell & some don’t.
No nose likes “wet dog” smell... this smell that people talk about is the smell of a substance called "calone" that has a aquatic smell... but some people find that smell like you say "wet dog" or even egg white smell.. but who is percepting this smell wrong? I thought about that. Fragances are made by perfumists with spetacular noses! so if they dont find that smell in the fragance to put in the market how the customer nose is percepting that? the customer nose is wrong! A small minority feel this off smell but for a large majority this smell is not present! so who is wrong ?
there are 25 different versions of Lacoste 12.12, and a few blanc and white versions, Lacoste L.12.12. Blanc Eau de Toilette, white, Eau de Lacoste, limited version, or Eau de Parfum blanc for him (!).......... with a silver ring.....2021, which seems to be the one here in the test. I hope so.
I bought DG LB Intense hoping that it would live up to my expectations (that were high because of reviews praising it). But i was disappointed - the opening was great and citrusy, but what came next was a rubber smell and it did spread all over the room making me run out of it😀 No wonder they called it "Intense"
It's amazing how people smell the same thing so differently. Light Blue Intense, to me, does smell like BO and wet dog. I was testing it at Sephora and a lady complimented me on the smell but when I smell it on myself, I almost threw up. I went home immediately to take a shower to scrub the scent off.
That girl in leather jacket i believe her name is Stella, damm she is on point, she knows how to describe a smell. Would definitely like to see her more. Also she got a classy taste.
Neeeded to be that new L12.12. Blanc Eau Fraîche it is definitely the best one yet from that line. That L 12. 12. bottle looks like the EDP? Did they change the EDT bottle to the EDP style?
I’m glad the girl who hated the Light blue intense and Bulgari Aqua marine reacted that way 😂😂. That Calone note in fresh fragrances always comes across as a wet dog, wet mineral smell and I hate it. It’s the main reason why I prefer ADG Profumo over Profondo. I guess it’s more prominent in for some peoples noses than others but I can’t get past that smell
Some constructive criticism, the overall idea and execution is impeccable but I feel like you should switch up some of the frags in the lineup. I think more sleepers should be put into the mix and a few more niche like PDM Sedley and Creed Erolfa.
Thanks for this. We have split up niche into their own videos thus far but I think this would be interesting to just sneak in some into different videos rather than making it strictly designer.
4:20 this guy 😂 he talks so much bs but with so much confidence in every video. I wish you had swapped Eau Sauvage for the new Dior Homme Sport, since Eau Sauvage has got a quite dated formula compared to the other fragrances on the list.
Glad worst fragrance I ever bought smelled of cheap citrus air freshener for 10 mins then dried to a dull close to skin pine scent and after about an hour could smell it at all.
While I disagree with many of their opinions, this is the best and most entertaining fragrance review format. I just a subscribed to your channel based on this video. Bring back the girl in the white cap, she’s hilarious! “This belongs in the trash,” made me spit my coffee.
yeah. there's no way to satisfy everyone watching and there's no better way to format the show. if they left samples out in the open, it would contaminate+affect every scent they give an opinion on
@@howtorawkyes… he wants attention but the problem is that there’s no element of reality to his comments - if he were clever enough to riff off the actual scent then it’d be witty and funny, but just saying random things only appeals to the dullard mind that can’t distinguish between clever irony and random contrived weirdness.
Thanks for all the great feedback so far on this. Also, a quick note about Lacoste, that is the EDT featured despite the textured pattern. We purchased the bottle in the last few months and it appears Lacoste has changed their packaging. Just wanted to add clarity on what was being tested.

It’s the main reason why I prefer ADG Profumo over Profondo. I guess it’s more prominent in for some peoples noses than others but I can’t get past that smell
2:06 that’s how I feel for original Aqua di gio
Some constructive criticism, the overall idea and execution is impeccable but I feel like you should switch up some of the frags in the lineup. I think more sleepers should be put into the mix and a few more niche like PDM Sedley and Creed Erolfa.
Thanks for this. We have split up niche into their own videos thus far but I think this would be interesting to just sneak in some into different videos rather than making it strictly designer.
7:36 thank you Stella.. 😘😘
Is wet dog smell trauma a thing? 😀Great video and very entertainig format. Keep it up! 👍
I think someone has mixed up the strips. Some of their reviews are way off.
4:20 this guy 😂 he talks so much bs but with so much confidence in every video.
I wish you had swapped Eau Sauvage for the new Dior Homme Sport, since Eau Sauvage has got a quite dated formula compared to the other fragrances on the list.
Artisan Pure got trashed, wow. I thought it would do really good. Jim, hilarious as always, love how Teddy cracks up.
Glad worst fragrance I ever bought smelled of cheap citrus air freshener for 10 mins then dried to a dull close to skin pine scent and after about an hour could smell it at all.
Hey blonde girl with the white cap with red 'C' - did you go to St. James in Lakewood as a kid?
Gab is hot, period! And I believe these videos are great, multiple opinions and blind reactions, keep em' coming and thanks.
I'm now watching these more for the people than the reactions. We want mlre stella, jim and mike please 😂
Isnt Artisan Pure known for smelling natural ? What is she on about, good video though, should have included the new eau fraiche lacoste l12 though
While I disagree with many of their opinions, this is the best and most entertaining fragrance review format. I just a subscribed to your channel based on this video.
Bring back the girl in the white cap, she’s hilarious! “This belongs in the trash,” made me spit my coffee.
I understand the olive comment. Has happened to me even though I've sampled and own a ton of fragrances
Will leaving a well sprayed strip in a sealed bag give a true representation of the dry down?
yeah. there's no way to satisfy everyone watching and there's no better way to format the show. if they left samples out in the open, it would contaminate+affect every scent they give an opinion on
2:14 lol I love it. "Garlic filled olives"
Gab needs her own channel, shes a vibe
Like a fresh mowed lawn and wanting coors light. That a girl!! Lol 😂👌🏻
Bvlgari Aqva Marine is a BOMB of a smell, every girl loves it!
did you watch this video? clearly not every girl loves it
Yeah. Especially the chick that dropped it 😂
Lacoste...hmmm!Maybe i will buy this but EDP....last longer so i heard!
I love this series! Great to hear a women's view
“I don’t need to smell as good because I perform way better.”
- My man!
Great mix of people!
His Zoolander reference about Bvlgari Aqva killed me. He’s not wrong! “Moisture is the essence of water, water is the essence of beauty” lol
Jeez when Gab dropped the Aqua Marine, my heart literally skipped a beat
It just shows that fragrance is a personal preference and interpretation
Jim is absolutely hilarious 🤣🤣
Mr. "Jim" needs to be on the stage for Open Mic night at the comedy club.
He’s annoying. I hope they don’t bring him back again
@@howtorawk 😂 I’m sure you’re fun at parties…
@@jmb2467 how original, ya schmuck
@@howtorawkyes… he wants attention but the problem is that there’s no element of reality to his comments - if he were clever enough to riff off the actual scent then it’d be witty and funny, but just saying random things only appeals to the dullard mind that can’t distinguish between clever irony and random contrived weirdness.
Can you do a blind reaction to men’s popular niche and their dupes?
We just released a clone vs the original video last week. Not sure if you saw it.
@@BaldassarreFragrance omg thank you!!
