      ⁠@@marvin2678Europe isn't America. A European country isn't an American state. As a Polish man who grew up in Sweden, I can tell you, just growing up in a different European country doesn't instantly make you a member of that nation. It's not just about ethnicity, but culture aswell. It's of course theoretically possible as an immigrant to become fully assimilated and ”indistinguishable” from a native, but then you also have to have parents who would deny you your cultural heritage.

    Imagine what Fragrance One would be if the prices were actually affordable for everyone. I mean you have a popular guy as the image but you have unpopular prices. The brand would sell 10 times more, I never got the fascination with high price points just to try to convince people you are upscale. It would be good to take this into consideration if you ever decide to open your own brand. The people is there, you just need to give them quality stuff at prices that everyone can afford. Trust me, the brand would sell more than Frag One ever sold this way.

I even pre-ordered Office for men and have the OG bottle. Throughout all the hate I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt and support him, but doing your family dirty like that is just wrong. He definitely needs help and I hope he gets it somehow. Wish you all the best Kamil! If you do your own fragrance brand in the future, I will make sure to check it out.

    Wow never knew Jeremy has a brother who is completely opposite and more level headed. How refreshing! Sorry to hear that you parted ways on the fragrance one partnership. I think there’s so much hurt and pain that I see in him. I think the girl that accused him of sexual assault and among other things is killing his mental compass. I pray that he gets professional help to overcome those issues and PTSD. Being accused of something of that magnitude can do a number on a person. Even if the allegations are false and no one wants that label “rapist” hanging over his head but the damage done can be costly and irreparable. Incredibly tough wow! Nice to meet you Kamil.

    Jeremy's journey is one of the weirdest in the fragrance community. I used to watch his videos. They weren't the most informative in this niche community, I didn't share all his fragrance tastes and opinions, but his videos were at least somewhat informative, his lists were detailed enough and easy to watch, he was a stylish, energetic guy - even his slightly impulsive facets kinda contributed to his unique image. He was hated by some, but what he did worked, and he certainly gave great advice for a less "niche" audience than some other channels
    Then a short time after he launched Fragrance One, things started looking weirder and weirder. In fact it had started before. It looked liked his channel went from being about fragrance to revolving around him, his image, his lifestyle, and becoming less and less informative and more and more... well, self-centered ? Idk, I stopped finding any value in the videos that started to feel like an old formula declined over and over without too much thought put into it (basically milking the cow) and eventually unsubscribed.
    Fast forward two years, and I saw him in my recommended video (after not even seeing his videos anywhere on my YT for quite some time) and decided to come check some of his recent videos> I was absolutely horrified. It was the same kind of videos as before, but instead of being 10min videos, they were 1min30. I was like "wtf... 10 fragrances in 1min30 ? Are we on tiktok?". And yes... the value was close to what you get on tiktok. Close to zero. Why ? What went through his mind ? What he is doing isn't being creative. It's being lazy af and literally milking a concept... but not even doing it correctly. He gives NO description of anything, just one or two quick keywords and boom, next fragrance.
    I was always one of the person that found the hate towards Jeremy unjustified (sure he did a lot of questionable stuff in the past, but at worst it was ridiculous, but not reason for hate) but damn, the quality has crashed so low that I'm surprised he still has a decently big audience. This guy skyrocketed, and then crashed in the weirdest, most disturbing way. We've seen him depressed (and in denial or trying to hide it) in the past - I often wondered if he was bipolar - but this time, I thought he completely lost touch with what people want.
    Or maybe people want this content, in fact. Maybe the tiktok-raised generation likes those new videos and I'm the one being out of touch from what the new generation likes and want. But if it's that, ouch, I don't have a lot of hope for the future of YT content - or any other media, for that matter.
    Anyway, I never knew you were part of Fragrance One before very recently. You seem like a cool person, probably more down-to-earth (and a bit less impulsive and volatile than Jeremy) which is probably good for coming up with such businesses, so I wish you success and I'm curious what your ideas around fragrances are! I subscribed!

      Not only better than my French... Also better than my English!
      And I agree with you on these points as well.
      Kamil,
      I'm looking forward to what fragrance business you develop in the future. Hang in there. It's going to be OK.
      I don't know why I like J as much as I do... He's undeniably charismatic, of course. But I think it has to do with a vulnerability & susceptibility he's often exuded along with wanting him to be healthy, happy, and live a full life.
      I once was a young man myself.. Then I raised a couple... Now I work in social services with many who are in places of severe affliction and struggles. I've been able to help quite a few, thanks be to God!
      I too have reached out to J, though I've not yet met him in person.
      Money, things, businesses, other organizations, creating/manifesting visions (artistry/craftsmanship), accomplishments are certainly all worthwhile endeavors. But people are the actual treasures of this world.
      And health vies only with time for our truly greatest commodity.
      I'm placing J & your family back in my prayers, Kamil.
      I don't have all the answers. Nor a magic wand, unfortunately.
      But I am a decent human being who's been through a lot, who cares, and who would be happy to listen & to help in any other way I might be able, if you'd ever like.
      Such would be my honor and I want nothing from any if you. I have been and am an extremely blessed man.
      I'm only 3 hours from Miami at most--often only 1 hour away--if J is still there.
      And I'm happy to give you or him my name & cell if either of you would like, K.
      No one has enough real friends in this life.
      And seemingly paradoxically very often the more influential we become, in various manners, the more isolated we become and the less defended from certain attacks we become.
      May God bless you with His greatest gifts--His Presence and your abundant lives.
      This season too shall pass.
      This is an extremely trying time for all of us. We do well to bear this in mind--that we are not at our strongest currently--and give both others and ourselves extra measures of mercy and grace right now. It's all going to be OK.
      Keep your spirits up and be patient.
      No matter what you tell your brother, and it might be all manner of things, be sure to tell him also that you love him.... When we least deserve love is when we most need it.
      You both may know all of these already. Sometimes reminders are nevertheless useful. And old men who care have a hard time not offering such unsolicited advice!
      So please do forgive my public forthrightness and familiarity. Life is just too dang short--even as only a vapor! And we often say what we shouldn't... and yet not what we should. I've been able to be of help to many in my life, and just don't want J to suffer anything avoidable.
      He, as each of us, is a precious, beloved Image bearer, just the way he is. I hope & pray he realizes this truth... So terribly few people do.
      Hopefully all is well and improving. I & my wife are available if either of you need good people for something here in the future.
      😊👍🙏❤

    Do both: follow your passion and curiosity about the olfactory system, and revive Fragrance One. If you revive Frag One, listen to the customers’ feedback, their valid issues/ complaints, and be a phoenix rising. The best revenge is becoming a success!!

    As humans, especially men..we don't acknowledge or talk about our mental health enough.

    I personally want the Jeremy from 10 years ago back. Simple, honest, passionate reviews and awareness of cheap hidden gems. I think the best way to describe him was effortless. He didn't need to try and be a character.

    If you remade FragranceOne with designer-tier pricing it would be a huge hit. Very few designer-tier fragrances are actually made by exclusive fragrance houses - they’re always part of larger fashion brands etc. A clear, simple, focussed mission to deliver mass appealing fragrances should have beat out the designer competition if only it had matched their price point. FragranceOne was a goldmine IMO, and it seems like you were the backbone, so why not remake it?
    I’m really sorry about how this all went down. I followed Jeremy since 2016 and it was clear that he’d started to spiral, so I hope he will be okay and get help.
    I also hope your relationship as brothers won’t suffer. I actually sent in a video to you when you did the surprise birthday montage for Jeremy’s birthday; I thought then you must have an amazing bond as brothers cause that was such a thoughtful thing to do.

      If Fragrance One had the top perfumers doing appealing scents at reasonable prices, man I mean reasonable ...that platform should skyrocket. I seen the whole Jeremy asking his subscribers once he realized he had influence, for money. Once he realized he can channel his momentum and cash in on it instead of branching it out, I knew it was over. To me that was deep disrespect asking me to lay down high niche prices for designer scents. You got to earn niche prices. Jeremy has no value as a perfumer. A perfumer is rare and very very few people in the entire world can make a fragrance. Jeremy can just push a profile or direction and the perfumer does the rest. I'm sure it's all about Jeremy grabbing all the cash he can without sharing a buck with anyone.

    I think that you should absolutely recreate the Fragrance One brand. Go for it! Because honestly, I think Jeremy gave up something that could really have gone far had he stuck it out, and it's just sad how he let the brand go. I can understand that he got a lot of hate and vitriol from haters and people who were jealous of him and what he had, but he never should have taken those things to heart and I think that stuff really hurt him and drove him into a bad space. And I think all of the pressure and needing to perform just affected his mind and decision making and I don't know. So many of us respected him and loved his take on fragrances and were drawn to the community because of his initial influence and passion, and it just sucks to see where he is now. I'm extremely sad to see him suffering so much where he is just letting things go and just not being the same person that he was. But yes, re-brand the brand, come up with new ideas and fragrances, bring the passion of perfumery into the heart with new aspects and bottle designs and other changes, and I think you will have a business that will thrive and flourish more than what Jeremy would even have imagined.

  • @peterd5901

    I really liked the brand fragrance one. I think the blessing and the curse of it was that Jeremy had a lot of great ideas and a lot of interesting ideas. Can you keep it open yourself and have it still be as successful? Maybe. I think just having reasonable pricing similar to your website now without crazy markups and sales that make pricing difficult for consumers to understand and can really turn people off would be a good idea. Otherwise fragrance and mood sounds fun! Best of luck on this new chapter.

  • @simianrogue
    @simianrogue 2 роки тому +2

    Greetings, Sir - just found your video, and I have to say, part of me is not surprised by your news, but another part of me is saddened by it. Jeremy was my first contact with the fragrance world, probably just under a year ago. Since then I have found other fragrance content creators, some good, some ok, and some not so good. I don't tend to follow your brother any longer as his content was drifting into the bizarre, and I could see things were not exactly right with Jeremy. But, as with life, there are times when we must be allowed to make those mistakes that will top us to rock bottom, before waking up and realising what a mess we are in. Only then are we able to reach out and accept the help we need and deserve. Until then, those around us that care, have to go through the often painful process of being forced to stand back and observe. I hope, for Jeremey's sake, health and mental state, that he coms to his sense without too much damage and/or harm.
    One thing for sure in times like there in an individual's life, you truly discover who truly loves and cares about you, both friend and family. This could be good for Jeremy, as so much that those involved around him (outside of his family circle) will show their true colours, and those out to leech off Jeremy and ride his wave will disappear faster than a blink and look for the next meal ticket, leaving Jeremy with those who are sincere and loyal.
    As for yourself, it's an amazingly tough position you find yourself, and one that is exhausting of several levels, physically, mentally and emotionally. So for that, Sir, I wish you the strength to continue pushing forward, the clarity of mind to see your way forward, and the love and warmth to keep you safe and protected on your path ahead. I have no doubt that your path isn't an easy one, but stay focused, grounded and honest with yourself and you won't go far wrong.
    You have now gained another new follower. I have subbed, liked and dinged that bell. But before I leave I will say one thing regarding my own journey on the fragrance trail - it's limited by financial aspects, which isn't uncommon for the majority of us here. I would suggest a serious think on the price model. I know you are a business and not a charity, fair enough, but one thing that might make a difference to folks would be the ability to purchase sample sets. At least then I wouldn't be concerned about wasting a hundred-odd pounds on a fragrance that I discovered either didn't work with my natural oils and skin, or I just couldn't stand the smell of.
    Good luck Sir, I wish you the very best for time ahead - and that goes too for those reading this and following this channel.

    He looks like Jeremy but with a moustache, and less mental issues

    Jeremy might be family. But he is that bit of family that finally dragged you down. And you need to let go before he drags you down to the point of no return. It will hurt though. You deserve your own success. Your fragrance idea is really good. Fragrance to boost your mood which will help to get along the day easier. I like that.
