Exactly, it's important to try not take offense to the terms people use to describe commonly recommended fragrances on Tiktok or other social media. We live in the era of engagement bait, calling out very well received fragrances are simply a way to draw attention to videos. Enjoy your fragrances and don't let it wear you down.

[@commonscentsreviews]

Pure facts. I’ve noticed TikTok has become a cesspool of people either pushing cheap colognes from their TikTok shop on their live or inflating the hype. I just stay clear of it because there are so many reviewers on there who you just know are lying to get the sales.

And all these fragrances are amazing, I really love them

[@Ihavenoideawhatthisevenis]

That's actually such an interesting point you brought up, especially with Dior Sauvage. I keep hearing everyone dog on that fragrance but, I've been alive for 34 years, and not once, have I smelled that fragrance on absolutely anyone. Almost every dude I know just wears AXE, BOD, or Stetson. On a rare occasion I'll find Nautica blue on someone, but that's so rare. But even then, I don't know why people are so harsh about that fragrance.

[@djallass]

@@Ihavenoideawhatthisevenis out of every guy ( especially white people ) i'd say 1 out of the 2 cologne wearers wears dior sauvage, and the other half wears any other fragrance. But i have indeed smelled sauvage alot of times on people irl

Listening to tiktok influencers makes you far more of an NPC than using a fragrance you enjoy even though there's a tiny chance that someone else might wear the same fragrance.

I fully agree with you, In my entire life I’ve only smelled SAUVAGE for once or twice ONLY even though “TikTok” call it an npc fragrance

[@MCWon212]

This is not just a tiktok thing. KZbinrs started the "everyone is wearing it" complaint. Everyone is wearing Sauvage, BDC, 1 Million, JPG, Aventus, Layton, Every Invictus, Y EDP, Nautica Voyage, etc.

Ive never smelt a single person ever wearing any of those in real life. I think the only time I smelt cologne on another man(which is rare) was versace eros

I used to smell a lot of Drakkar Noir 20 years ago but now there's so many different scents I rarely smell the same thing. Except Cloud. Cloud is absolutely ubiquitous.😂

[@thesensei]

Agreed 100% It’s not just TikTok. Instagram and KZbin have the same issue with shills hyping up fragrances that aren’t worth it at all. And personally, the only reason I think they hate on Nautica Voyage is because it’s so cheap and they probably don’t get a lot of commission on it if any at all. Lol

[@sendhelp6537]

Commission? They aren't paid commission. They use affiliate links. Nautica Voyage is just seen as played out in fragcom. Kid is right when he says the real world isn't the same.

[@BronwynSmith-yg5lu]

This video is facts. I stopped watching and trusting tiktok frag influencers when a huge amount of them (including ones I thought were reliable) said that Yara smells like a strawberry milkshake. It smells like sweetened baby powder with a little bit of non-descript fruitiness. Nothing lactonic or strawberry about it. The frag community worldwide is very very small and majority of people in general just wear nothing OR a random body mist/body spray/deodorant. "NPC fragrance" is just snobbery and nonsense. This video is so real, thank you for uploading.

i've been wearing fragrances since i was 17 and im 40. the good thing about fragrances is there's a lot of them out there. and the ones most people use tend to be new and trending. that's why i dont bother buying new launches but older ones cause not much people will be wearing them.

[@flyingwhales912]

The thumbnail! Sheeeshhhh….its glowing up! Tbh. I think people not wanting to smell like can NPC can lead them into the niche fragrances. After a while it gets crazy expensive then you realize you can buy 5-8 Lattafa’s. Or even 2-3 designer fragrances depending where you buy. And then after a while you realize no one around you knows what the hell a niche fragrance is 😭

[@duncanblue6698]

Another thing people don't mention is that a lot of fragrances smell very similar in the air (not right up to your nose). like spicebomb extreme, most wanted, stronger w/ you etc. will just smell like something sweet or spicy in the air and not like how you perceive them.

[@F4834N]

In my friend group, It was only me and another guy who wore fragrances. I actually got two of my other friends to start wearing fragrances. As much as influencers love saying certain fragrances are over worn, the amount of times that you are going to run into someone (in my experience) is very low. So if you like something, just wear it and don't be afraid of not being unique. Great points in the video bro 👍

Funny how some fragrances gets called an NPC scent, but then again same "elitist" people wear same "items" like Vans, AF1, and other popular brands that you see left and right.

[@katjean7270]

It's so true. As a woman I can agree, and guess what, even if people wear it, it's gonna smell slightly different on their skin. And they might not even like it after that 1st wear!!! People just like to be snobs and diss things for their own ego. Each fragrance is different. It's very rare something is actually gonna smell cheap and like shit lol

[@luishernandez6865]

Fragcom is a very small community in the fragrance world, unfortunately bc of the hype fragcom creates a lot of fragrance companies raise their prices based on KZbinrs opinions. Most guys don’t wear cologne on a daily basis like we do. I know a lot of ppl who never hear of Aventus much less TF’s OUD WOOD. You can wear anything you want & take the opinions of KZbinrs with a grain of salt. There’s many fragrances that are not mentioned that smell awesome that go unnoticed. Don’t worry 90% of ppl don’t wear cologne on a daily basis so wear what you want & don’t worry about what fragcom says

[@bianiokungbowa8288]

[@Alex-cs1fi]

I agree with you... Although, fragrances like Dior Sauvage and some others are over-used. You'll smell it on a ton of guys if you go out a lot. The main problem I see with fragrance tik-tokers is they think they know everything when all they have is designer and cloned fragrances and one or two niche IF NOT any. They'll give you a boring and basic recommendation like Bleu De Chanel or Eros.

You’re so correct!!! I for one love BR540, but it seems like every time I come across some fragrance channel I’m being told that everybody and their mother wears BR540, like you can’t even go to the supermarket without smelling it somewhere. I assure you that I have never -at least not consciously- smelled BR540 on the streets and thought to myself “there goes another one wearing that perfume”. And EVEN IF everybody would be wearing it, that didn’t mean it’s a bad perfume - if I like the scent, I will wear the damn perfume thank youuuu 😝

[@Cristian-de9iu]

I got the same perspective after watching several videos. I'm from Latam, and I started to watch videos about fragrances since I have never purchased any before. Thus, I purchase the Moschino Toy Boy, and other 6 xD, but among YT channels they contradict each other saying that they are repetitive, even though, at my university I've identified a few guys wearing cologne. I'm glad that I started to blind buy and just be critical thinker. If I do not like It I just donate it to my dad, cousins or brother...

[@tev2k814]

I couldn't agree more brother. I work in a store and have contact with hundreds of people daily and I haven't even once smelled someone wearing Dior Sauvage which everyone says is the biggest NPC fragrance and most used. Only a small percentage of people actually wear cologne so you will smell unique with whatever you wear.

[@nellyalier-pina3444]

You are absolutely right!! I like what I like I don’t care if the entire planet wears it!!

[@dhruvkhatwani3872]

Its a coincidence that I just got these 2 fragrances a week ago (Khamrah and honor&glory), one for summer and other for winter. And I really like both of them. I have to agree that the dry down for h&g was a complete switch, but I enjoyed it even though it kinda turned into a warm winter fragrance lol. They are good blind buys if you fw woody aromatic smells. I have nothing bad to say about them.

[@Ihavenoideawhatthisevenis]

Also, I don't mind if I do smell like somebody else, if it smells nice, who honestly cares. I don't know why people are so focused on being so different from everyone else.

You are correct Sauvage edp is one of my most complinented fragrance and I have smelled no one with it!

[@Milchjaeger]

Yo I see the fallacy in the 1 in 15 stat! People want to smell unique on special occasions like on a date or in a bar or in a meetup. I am sure in a lot of these cases people will put on a fragrance way more often than 1 in 15!! And in these occasions people want to smell unique :) but yeah true I also never smelt JPG Le male more than once a season haha

[@lauralu9265]

If you want to smell unique, layer your fragrances.

[@dwyaneohmar9418]

I’m cracking up bro you’re absolutely right!!

[@fared___3409]

Thats why I dont use TikTok. Bc tiktok just wanna feel special with particular fragrances, but theyre not. If it smells good, then buy it or wear. Who cares if I smell like other. No. Ive watch some says dont buy Sauvage, you will smell like other boy or smell regular. Nope, I wear Sauvage clone and still theres a people that never smell it and still give compliment. Sotd, I wear that Nautica Voyage layer with Asad Zanzibar. Marvelous.

[@phyrtiv]

So true i don't understand the hate on Nautica voyage its not the best but it's really good. I dont know about performance if its more then 8 i would buy it but for example hayaati smells exactly like Invictus i smelled side by side 12h and good projection and still some people hate on it bruh

[@jjsimon9827]

Youre right bro! That's 100% true. Fragrances are something personal and every cologne have diffrent scent on different person. For example Xerjoff Erba Pura smells on me like 1milion Elixir without any diffrence. Soo guys be yourself and use what you like!

[@vakira7810]

Versace eros and Savauge are the only fragrances I would argue I commonly smell in public. Any other scent 99% of people wont have or recognize

[@hanoh2904]

I don't see anything wrong with that as long as you watch a few reviews and check that you like the notes. I'm lucky to have stores that sell some of these perfumes but the blind buys I got were really nice

[@zetamale]

people online imply that EVERYONE is wearing creed Aventus... I've never smelt it on anyone I've met, nor had I even tried it until I finally purchased it recently. It's the grandfather of the DNA but the dupes do such a good job, the OG is overpriced and redundant. Once again, the snobbery online will have comments saying the dupes don't come close. Maybe not in quality, but scent profile and performance... some arguably do it BETTER!

[@undo8309]

My rule is buy Decants first. 5 ml for designer or clones. If you like it after empty the decant then full bottle.

[@element7448]

In general I have these rules: Only buy if you tested the fragrance and really like it and dont buy out of hype. Only buy ones that blow your socks out of the water and really fit your style, or else you wont wear them. Especially with hyped nieche fragrances I often had the experience that I didnt enjoy them at all. Blind buying nieche is a fatal mistake you will only make once.

[@giantarkvine27]

Well said. My usual rule is always buy a 2ml decant. If I use it all, I buy a 5ml. If I still like it, it’s safe to get a bottle.

[@element7448]

[@Soybean13]

Imo the best "angel's share" clone isn't kamrah but zimaya sharaf blend, you should try that one. The cinnamon on kamrah is too dominant and not enough boozyness. Sharaf blend has a perfect proportion and actually really close to angel share

[@luctendo96]

I’ve seen this ongoing trend on TikTok in the past moths of just hyping up scents, to then degrade it once it popular. Stronger with You Intensely was an amazing fragrance back in November, now it’s an overhyped NPC fragrance apparently. This keeps happening with every fragrance that gets hyped, it eventually will get hated on once everyone gets their hands on it and that’s just childish behavior.

[@ivonjohn700]

I completely agree, absolutely right. I’m not a fan of TikTok perfume accounts that are pushing the false narratives…that a good perfume has to be super expensive or super unique( something never heard before ). You can like 1 million and you would probably be the only one in 20 people wearing that. (They need to understand that just because a perfume name is known, doesn’t mean everyone has it ) They don’t really care about actually speaking the truth. All they care about is making that commission…which is sad because a lot of people put their trust in them to buy what is better.

[@IcarusRepublique]

Any fragrance they say every has is usually a good starter buy for a beginner's collection. If they dont want to be an NPC, they should spray literal shit on themselves. That will be very unique and a main character move.

Imo, it’s hard to find NPC fragrances in real life. Not many people wear fragrances in the real world- let alone at school. If you like a fragrance, wear it. Also skin chemistry is a thing- smells slightly different from person to person. Also the dry down of scents will usually be closer to the base notes and farther away from the top notes.

Exactly why I use Dior Sauvage, it's because it's the best fragrance I've ever smelled, even though it is called an NPC fragrance the most

[@KonanVarvarin86]

Sometimes you don't need to go with massively popular fragrances. I remember when Paco Rabanne 1 Million was released (same with Dior Sauvage), I think 80% of men's (who use cologne) use that one. You can smell it everywhere, I'm the bus, in club, office. If you meet new girl and wear 1 Million in that time there was huge chance that you smell same as her ex, and you don't want that 🙂 But in the case of clones, middle eastern fragrances I think you are safe.

[@marshens]

In my very very short amount of time collecting fragrances I've only, i repeat, ONLY smelled these in the real world, keep in mind people say these are npc fragrances: Voyage: 20+ times Sauvage: 1 time Eros: 4 times Ultramale: 3 times Adg: 3 times Club de Nuit: 3 times Br540 adjacent fragrances: 10+ times Erba pura adjacent fragrances: 3 times I've literally never smelled anything else, keep that in mind when someone says stuff like One Million, Le Male Elixir, DHP, Cedrat Boise, Layton (lol) are all npc fragrances

[@JoseAlvarez-jj1uf]

I feel like colognes that are known for being good is for a reason if something is good and is well known for being good people might think it’s an NPC fragrance but at the end of the day it’s still good. Buy it if it makes you happy don’t listen to no one else.

[@1OldPacman]

I never smelled someone and was like "ugh, what a normie. He smells like everyone else. He's not unique." I either think they smell good, or they don't. These people who think that way are the same kind of people who stop liking movies or bands because they became popular. They affected by the mainstream just like the "normies", just in a reverse way. I wouldn't want to appeal to these people anyway. I buy what i like based on what I like. Not based on mainstream. If i like it, i don't care if everyone does it or no one does it. Not going to affect me.

So true! I don’t use TikTok, but a lot of people just review cologne from its opening fragrance, and I found almost everything that I’ve blind bought after the dry, smells entirely different than what they sold it as.

People should just look for the notes and figure out what they like in what they already own and what they're willing to try. People should def buy a few samples instead of buying bottles just because someone said it was great. Body chemistry is also a factor. I personally don't care as long as I enjoy my perfume and I'm not giving myself and others a headache. Arab perfumes have better quality and longevity than some expensive perfumes I have so I'll keep buying them, but I'll do samples before committing.

No. Also owning 100+ scents is not normal to regular people in fact most women have 1-3 perfumes they use up and rebuy. Y’all don’t let these influencers fool you!

[@cralcanten3024]

I get lattafa asad, and I regret it after a while because I listened to TikTok influencers and never tried the actual fragrance. They say it's like a sauvage elixer, but when it dried down, it had a completely different scent. So I prefer to try the actual fragrance and know if it bothers the others or not, and the most essential one is that I have to like it, not my partner or the girls in the street. I have to like it because it represents my character and true me, not what people want me to be.
