Bit precarious positioning of those Roja's... 😬 But you can't hide that bottle of Old Spice Chris. 😄 I see it reaching out. 🙌 Bit of a tip for your situation, there's something to be said about stackable 60L clear bins. Log the fragrances you don't use in a spreadsheet, clean 'em, box 'em, stick 'em in a clear bin and label the bin (I like coloured labels). Neat, clean, organized, simple. Anytime you want to find a fragrance, check the spreadsheet and you know where it is. Colours just make it easier. I've also been a strong advocate for closed cabinets because of the dusting and knocking issues, but to each their own. Appreciate you sharing the collection! 1000 here we come!! 💪

A couple years ago I got caught up in the whole frag-comm discussion of "Having too many fragrances". At the time I put together an amazing collection, but eventually fell into the trap and felt guilty so I sold most of it. Worst mistake ever. I learned the money part isn't the issue, money comes and moeny goes, I'll save up for what I want, but having any fragrance at my disposal when I want to wear it and how much I can spray means so much to me, and selling off my collection taught me that. I'm currently rebuilding and will never make that mistake again. You can never have too many fragrances! Amazing collection!

I thought you had over 1000 there as you took us through them. Can't quite believe there are only 750 there! I probably have 150 @ 25 ml or above plus another 50 or so manufacturers 10-20ml bottles. I have long realised I won't use up most full bottles so those smaller manufacturers sizes when they do them are great for me. Then of course there are decants too. My average price per fragrance is much less than yours as with expensive fragrances I will buy a decant instead as I don't think any fragrance is worth more than £150 (and most far less). My average bottle is probably around £35 but this is not me buying crap but taking advantages of Molinards for that price (thanks All Beauty) or Zilli for £25 & La Manufacture for £29 (thanks TK Maxx). I'm looking to scale it down now as I want to get past the stage where 5 days a week are sampling or first wears from a newly purchased bottle and only 2 days are a wear of a previous purchase. Something the other way round would be good. 2 days a week on new fragrances and 5 using what I already have

@travisn346 I've been collecting longer than I've been watching folks on KZbin, and for me it's a big combination of things. Definitely not an obsession as I never let my collection get over a certain aize, I think there's a big combination of things. Part of it is nostalgia, there's certain things I can smell that just take me back in time or remind me of a person. On the same note, when someone wears something that smells really good or interesting, it just adds a whole layer to them. Then there's the artistry of it, I love how simple the act of making a fragrance is and yet how magical it can be if you do it just right. Mainly though, if I'm being really honest, I think of a fragrance as a bit of personal armor sometimes. I'm a giant guy at 6"6. My shoe size is big enough that I can't just walk into a store and find a collection to try out. Clothing is a similar issue, when you're my height and size, a lot of department stores cater to the folks smaller than me, so I constantly see things I would wear if they made my size, but they don't. Even if they did, I have terrible fashion sense for myself. The way I smell however, always puts me in a different mood dependings on what I'm wearing and the truth is, I'm not looking at my own outfits, but I can always smell myself. So my mood and my fragrance are symbiotic. Sometimes I'll wear something because I'm feeling a certain way, sometimes I'll wear something because I want to feel a certain way. The reason I watch some of the fragrance KZbin channels that I do is not because I need recommendations or anything, sometimes maybe on a new release if I trust their previous thoughts on other things then yes; I primarily just enjoy other people being passionate about the same things I am. Same with my watching videos about writing or philosophy or anything like that. There's times to learn, and times to have the shared experience of your passions. With fragrance I have maybe a half dozen people I know in my personal life who have the same level of interest that I do, most of the people I know think it's curious. So yeah, I like the whole idea of how scent can play a part in your day and your experience, how it can elevate or ruin a mood. And have a wide selection for me is no different than someone who owns dozens of pairs of shoes or a ton of jewelry or a massive wardrobe.

@marcusskyfall I hate to say it, but some of the bottles I've drained over the years have been Aventus, Guerlain L'omme Ideal Cologne, Purple Label, Imaginary Authors Mosaic, Guerlain Vetiver Extreme, and Versace Man Eau Fraiche. These are all extremely easy reaches for me. I wish I could say it was something cool like Amouage Imitation Man or Diptyque Oyedo or Byredo Slow Dance or any number of other scents, but the truth is I can easily like something more than some of these others and just not wear it as much because the occasion doesn't call for it. Actually, here, Dirty Secret Time: My most used fragrance of all time is Calvin Klein Eternity. I don't wear it very much any more, but when I was a kid it was the first fragrance I became obsessed with and for like a decade straight until I ventured into other fragrances, it was one of maybe three things I ever wore along with Azzaro Chrome and maybe one or two other oddballs. Then I discovered Ralph Lauren Purple Label and that made me want to smell everything else everywhere.

Chris, your rough organization around brand/collection is really not as disorganized as you suggested. But no matter how you do it, as long as you can find what you're looking for, who cares how it's organized -- or not?! My collection is about 200+, and it's crudely organized by style. I also have them catalogued in a database, which gives me the flexibility of looking at them in various orders or filtered by style. But with so many fragrances, I sometimes have trouble deciding which one to wear! And you have a LOT more than me! Glad to hear I'm not the only one who struggles with that "first-world problem." 😅

I've been at this for about 7 years, but a frag lover for much much longer. I started collecting when I found out about discounters. Once I knew you could buy them on the cheap it was on. However, I am very picky, therefore I own about 150. It's 75 winter and 75 warm weather.

I, too, am running out of space 😅 I need to give it a rest! I thought there was around 650 in your collection. Well, that was the last time I was at yours!

I’ve got about 12 and thought I was over doing it lol but thanks for sharing your collection

I’ve got about 150 but have sold and given away so many. Still continue to add more than I need though

I haven't counted all of my bottles. I'm not sure I can find them all. I've only really been collecting since March 2022, but I know I have enough to last a few lifetimes 😅

Brave video mate! The IKEA shelves have a weight limit and I would hate to see a new video on "how many bottles did I lose in the collapse . . ." You need to strengthen, upgrade and expand, LOL! I'm trying to hold my collection under 100 bottles. Using the one in one out rule now and saving for premium upgrades. Great channel!

I would be happy having just the samples and discovery sets you have :)) (event though I have a small collection of my own)

If you are going to sell your used fragrances, where is the best place to do it? I assume eBay but is there somewhere else that I don't know about.

I have acquired around 94 fragrances in one year. My first one was 1million elixir and my latest one is jpg elixir.

Are there still plans for Smolder 2.0 or is it already for sale?

When you collect more than you can use, it’s time for a spiritual journey 😊

I've only got about 40 so amature level I guess. Only started to get into a few months ago. Previously just bought one that I liked... Wore it to death and started looking for the next one. 11.40 it's sad to Issey Miyake Noir Ambre getting dusty on the shelf!

I started collecting during the pandemic... This year, I sold 75% on eBay, and my seller hub said $28,000! 😱

Wow what an amazing collection you have there! I saw 1 J-Scent bottle, how is that brand? I wouldn't call it a mess, rather organized chaos. : )

Hello Chris😎 Always wanted to know how big your collection is. Cool video! Unfortunately, I only have 330 perfume bottles at home. I am still in beginner status haha😅

Chris, all of my collection is still boxed as I thought that would keep them better for longer. Is this not the case? Do you have the boxes stored elsewhere or just chuck them? I'd love to get rid of the boxes to save space.
@FRAGMENTAL11 ай бұрын
I have all the boxes…just in case.

Hoarders are usually unorganized.. nonjudgmental 😂.. i have about 150 full bottles.. im officially on pause in 2024.. going to try and enjoy what i have. At times i look at it proudly, other times i ask myself, what are you doing. My only rule, is when i purchase a fragrance,its a direct purchase with debit card, no fragrance on credit. But ya your collection is wild

I have around 300 and I think it's too many sometimes. I'm a reviewer as well mainly on Instagram (as a hobby) and to be fair a good many have been sent to Me but I still buy my fair share.
@PokeTheBear7736 ай бұрын
I had close to 700, but the real estate to keep them is a real thing. I hold at about 350 to 400 now. Can where something different every day of the year and if it has been a couple of years since I have worn it, it can be sold so I can get something else. Really cuts on the spending and makes me think about what I want to add to the collection.

I caught the bug in 2019 & I'm at 200 bottles now. But I've slowed down & I'm trying to make wiser selections on my purchases. I'm going to go in a completely different direction. This is an addictive hobby that's gone wrong 😆
