[@ryanw7296]

Bought a 200ml bottle of D & G Light Blue Eau Intense a couple years ago due to all the hype. And it does smell great! But it gives me a dull headache each and every time that I wear it, so I rarely do.

[@OhgodImtoosexy]

In my case, it's the JPG Le Male. When I smelled it in a department store, I loved it! Bought it home and wore it a few times, it gave me a headache EVERY TIME. At first I thought it was just unhealthy bad days, so I tried it about 10 times, headache EVERY TIME! I gave it away to a friend whose favorite fragrance is it. Other people seem to love it too. It's one of a very few fragrances that gives me a headache.

[@OhgodImtoosexy]

P.S. Whenever I smell it on that friend, it would make me feel nauseated.

[@adrian_theexplorer]

Just like my YSL Y EDP. Yikes! I really do not like the smell.

[@ec4145]

If you really like it, have you tried spraying clothes before you wear them? I realize this is blasphemy to some people, but I've found with only one exception that I can wear fragrances that give me a headache if I spray my shirt an hour or two before I put it on.

[@AlFrBu]

I think I’m one of those Kalan fanboys. Most of my negative blind buys are more disappointing than disgusting. But my worst blind buy by far is Toy Boy. It smells synthetic and induces pronounced gag reflex. I get people love it, but it is definitely not for me.🤷🏻

[@johnborges5938]

Blind buys are a cost of doing business for you, Ash, but for ordinary casual collectors, I've figured out after a few years that it's almost always a mistake. Except in cases where just I can't get a sample for less than a big portion of the cost of a bottle, I never blind-buy now. I have too many bottles of things I can't abide, and at least in my state, you can't even donate an unsealed bottle of cologne.

I'm new to the fragrance world but my first blind regret was Versace The Dreamer. I was so sure I would like it but when I tested it it just smelled like cold flowery cigarette ashes. Like walking into an old motel that used to allow smoking and had some kinda floral cleaning chemical sprayed inside. I don't think it's awful but it just smells so weird for me and definitely not my style.

Your description of Little Italy is exactly mine for Ajmal Blu. Great fresh start but then turns to a funky, musky smell that I don't care for. Saw lots of rave reviews online about it but it isn't for me.

[@tbglover]

Versace The Dreamer. Fortunately it wasn't that expensive but it didn't stop me from hating it.

[@bryanryan4504]

I have had a few regrets in the past but for some reason, recently i have been coming around to appreciating and enjoying them. For various reasons. Epic man Amouage bought it due to the bottle. Most beautiful bottle ive ever seen. Nothing epic about it though, it smelled merely of scented water and cumin to my nose. I let it sit for a couple months, abd it was still the same. Almost a year later, the fragrance opened up it seemed and it is richer and has a balmy note i havent noticed before. It is a respectable fragrance now but still not one of my favorites but not a regret anymore.

[@soles4real308]

For me it was Layton and Carlisle from PDM. Both were terrible to me. Never bought any fragrances from PDM since

Weirdly the way he described Little Italy is EXACTLY what happens when I use D&G Light Blue Intense. I've bought 2 bottles because i thought I must have bought a faulty batch but no it just turns into this funky orange scent after 10 minutes

I've said it in other videos and I'm going to do it again just because, but Light Blue Forever and K EDP give me a raging headache about the time it hits the drydown. No clue why. Grapefruit in Bleu de Chanel doesn't give me any issues.

[@Jtdubbzz]

I’m kinda surprised to hear Ash doesn’t like Fan Your Flames but also not surprised. Yes, the quality is definitely there and at first I was very impressed with it but after more wears and as I became more accustomed to the notes I realized I didn’t like it either. Mainly because of the toasted coconut and cedar combo. Very natural smelling but almost too toasted, there were a few times I wore it and it smelled more charred than toasted which was not a pleasant smell. Unfortunate. Kalan on the other hand I rather enjoy and it’s right up there with some of my most complimented fragrances, surprisingly. However, it’s very strong and bold, not one I reach for very often so getting through a 120mL bottle will be next to impossible for me. Autumn is the best time to wear it IMO so maybe I’ll put a dent in it this year!

[@sunnsupreme]

I've had both Mukhallat and Fan Your Flames on my radar for awhile now and this is so disappointing. I'll probably still grab the Nishane but probably not the Montale considering that my last Montale blind buy wasn't the best experience either.

[@wimfranken384]

Montale Mukhallat: One of the most longlasting, projecting and.....compliment-getting (!!!) parfums of my whole collection ( of >300 designer and niche).

[@flawlessjewels]

About a week ago I tested Little Italy on my skin and it smelled like someone threw up rotten oranges. Bond No. 9 has some really beautiful bottles but every one I've sampled so far smelled awful except one. Most of them had a synthetic, plastic type of smell.

I had ordered a split and was so excited for it to arrive, while I was waiting for it to arrive I went back to the website and ordered the last split that was available, thinking I was so smart. When the first package arrived with the first split, I opened it like an animal, I immediately put a spray on my wrist and, instantly regretted doing so. It oversprayed onto my coat. I ended up having to take my coat to the cleaners. When the second split arrived, I tossed it in the corner. It is still sitting there unopened, and will remain unopened, until the day I die.

Worst blind buy for me has been Zara Unexpected/Fresh/Spicy. Imagine the smell of an empty glass of terrible quality whisky left by a drunkard in a dubious bar hours ago, that's the kind of image it brings to my mind. Dunhill for Men and Jovan Musk are next. To my nose, both are showcases of old-lady hairspray-ness in fragrances. Whatever negative vibes the word "vintage" might have, these two must be among the culprits.

I never got into the hype with Fan Your Flames or Kalan either. Both are decent fragrances but neither really wowed me on paper or on skin. Came across FYF at a time when a few different Nishanes were being hyped and I liked ANI way better. I still love the classic Nautica. Had it back in the day and bought another bottle last year and the performance is weaker than I remember it being (reformulation?) but I still enjoy it.

Most of my blind buys weren't horrible but they were similar to other fragrances that are better, so they don't get worn much. My worst blind buys that are downright bad are Vince Camuto Man and Abercrombie & Fitch First Instinct Blue.

Explorer blue is too peppery on skin not much people like that neither do I, it annoyed me when I sprayed a tester on my skin and it instantly smelled very peppery which bothered my nose
