Platinum Egoiste is such a great scent, it has so much nuance. One spray and it starts with this sporty, fresh scent, then the dry down is this warm citrus/woody smell. I cannot tell you how many times I have received comments on it. I agree with you it's any time everyday wearable scent--great picks!

This was a great video my friend, I just want to say as a 43 year old man your the 1st person I’ve ever seen in KZbin who actually acknowledges the fact that what you wear affects how people perceive your fragrances👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼, a woman I know said a guy walked into her store wearing a t shirt and sweat pants but he was wearing TV, she acknowledged how good he smelled but subconsciously knew it didn’t go with his look at that time. It’s all relative guys.

Well maybe not all the time...but from time to time anyway.;) But differnt skin types...different situations...weather. All these things can make a difference on how a fragrance plays off of our skin. Thanks for the video.

Dradoc you are so right on designer getting waaaaayyyyyy more compliments than the niche. Hiro once said that Play Intense was one of his most complimented fall/winter frags over any niche that he owned. And for Spring/Summer, Versace Eau Fraiche is king with the ladies, over any thing niche I own for the same seasons. What's up with that, do you think?

Yah, most are summer frags or ones that tend to do better in the winter. It's easier in general to be smelled in the summer than winter (heat, less layers of clothes, more situations to smell) So it doesn't surprise me now that I look back on it.

Do you think there's any reason why DHI doesn't do as well in other settings, does it lead back to people thinking it is 'sexy' rather than nice and it would be inappropriate to say 'sexy' in casual situations or at work?
