50 lol 🤣

I am a part time Chauffeur and have a "Fragrance Wardrobe" of over 200 bottles. That said, if I were to choose a "Signature Scent", it would be Houbigant - Fougere Royale. My go to fragrance for the Gym is John Varvatos - Artisan Pure . . . As I deal with a lot of folks weekly, and a variety of events, I have several choices that work for various seasons, different age groups, gender, nights out, Funerals, Weddings, etc. As for building a " Fragrance Wardrobe", it takes time ! The recommendations here are excellent ! I would also suggest watching a variety of KZbin fragrance reviews, as well as referencing sites like Fragrantica. Personally, I don't feel completely dressed to leave my home for the day without spritzing on a fragrance for the day. Thanks for sharing your great recommendations Jeff !

[@Chilltown95]

How do you deal with them expiring?

[@ardenpowers7730]

@@Chilltown95 I refrigerate the ones that I am not using at the moment . . . which seems to make them last longer overall. Most keep their character for years, while others like Chanel Coco Noir, loose their top notes somewhat quicky. I'm willing to take the chance with investing and future eventual losses. Thanks for asking . . .

This is by far the SAFEST MOST STANDARD advice on KZbin. If this is your first time watching a KZbin fragrance review..... Jeff the style og just gave you the basics.

[@LouisFrag]

I 100% agree with starting off with the safe fragrances for a guy that has over 45 at home. I like to smell different from everyone especially if they're wearing the usual popular fragrances, I go for some of my niche fragrances that ladies will remember you for smelling unique and memorable. Great content O.G Stay blessed 🤜🏾🤛🏾💯

On Point!. I love a man who makes the effort to smell good for himself 1st . Thanks Jeff. Be Blessed as nd stay safe.

[@martinguajardo6771]

I like the idea of have 5 different scents for different situations. That's great advice!

[@DavidGarcia-ho2bp]

I agree with you, right now I have 4 bottles of cologne, including D & G The One. When you mentioned having an "intimate" scent one fragrance that came to mind (which is in my collection) is Lancôme's Hypnôse, think this scent is very under rated. It smells like a strong scent, maybe at first, but it softens up.

[@dholmesjr]

I have 15 selections of cologne.... I recently purchased a bottle of Burberry and Jimmy Choo... I wanted to try something new... I really like both fragrances.... It's important to me to always smell great.... Great advice... I picked up some new fragrances by watching youre video.... Salute...

I totally Agree great list another cologne I personally like to wear during warm weather is Versace Dylan Blue & during cool weather is Prada Luna Rossa Black get a lot of compliments or different people asking what are you wearing it smell really good and a cheap cologne for fall time maybe early spring is F Pour Homme Black by Salvatore Ferragamo Great Video Jeff

[@gerardoalcirajr851]

My cold weather cologne is Dior Fahrenheit ,my everyday is CK Be or Mont Blanc Legend, summer is Polo blue and Ultimate Blue ,statement or night is Versace Eros or Dior Sauvage . I need to try the Valentino Uomo and Spicebomb . Another great video my friend !

[@TonyTony-tk4qf]

I have four out of your eight colognes but I really like it's a Versace arrow flame ,I use that a lot and I get a lot of compliments

[@rickydjrick66harris56]

I picked up that Spicebomb a few months ago per your suggestion. Love it!!!!

[@iking317]

I have too many, I have close to 80 bottles alot of Niche and designer fragrances. I just like to smell different every day. I separate myself from the pack, if every guy is wearing Chanel blue & Paco Rabon.

Nice one!I agree that 5 would be plenty,unless you trying to build a collection.I own 80+ now and this could be very addictive and expensive hobby.Watch you spending budget,don’t be a compulsive buyer.Colognes are must have accessories in your wardrobe,and it damn feels good when pretty ladies give you complements for it!

[@get2dachoppa249]

Gotta recommend some John Varvatos fragrances. Dark Rebel and Dark Rebel Rider are great winter scents. Artisan Pure is a great white floral fragrance that works well if you are in a tropical vacation setting.

[@Shawntraci]

I enjoy these types of topics. I definitely agree with your pics. I have a great deal of fragrances to go with different occasions 😊. My safe pick would be Channel Platinum Égoïste. I don't club anymore, but if I did it would be my Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio Profumo. My date night scent is Issey Miyake Nuit Noir Argent. My favorite summer scent is Swiss Arabian Shawq. And lastly my winter sent is Mancera Red Tobacco and The Sent Private Accord Hugo Boss. You have done another outstanding job good Sir!

[@darrelrivers3345]

Great videos bruh, I appreciate you because I have not been into fashion over the years, but I’m getting older and trying to make changes in my wardrobe to not look like an old man. So I salute you brother!

[@sincitydude31]

The date night scents were good choices. I also think Tom Ford Noir Extreme is a good one. For winter I also highly recommend John Varvatos Dark Rebel.

[@kareemjordan8596]

I agree with everything you said. Personally I have to keep at the least between 10 and 2o different colognes. A different scent for a different occasion. One thing I would say you left out is cologne for active wear. I like the classic Polo Red for that purpose.

[@savvylifestrategies9445]

A great eye-opening video, Jeff. I never thought about colognes along these lines. I've been matching colognes with the seasons. Live and learn. Salute!

[@taharqa332]

Wow! I've been rocking with five scents for over a decade now. I guess great minds think alike - here goes: My everyday scent is Kiehl's "Musk Eau de Toilette" - It's classic! I get tons of compliments from women when they smell this scent; it's pretty much my year round "go to" fragrance; I always keep an extra full bottle on the shelf. My spring/summer scent is "HAPPY" by Clinique. It's citrusy, light - and doesn't over power. Once again, I get many compliments when wearing this fragrance My night time going out scent is "1 Million" by Paco Rabon...this scent always grabs noses no matter where I go. My other two scents are Dolce & Gabana "Eau de Toilette" and "Bleu de Chanel" I may add another if something grabs me.

[@corybrookins6996]

This was a huge help OG. Love your content. Definitely has helped elevate from game. Salute from the CHI 🫡

1) A dumb reach every day errand casual frag. 2) Date night. 3) Office/Work/Business meetings. 4) Clubbing frag 5) Super hot summer day cooling, light, crisp frag. 6) Very special event/black tie event expensive & exotic frag. 7) After the gym shower. 8) Hipster weird original bizarre scent frag, good for morning coffee shop & shopping.

[@bradwilliamson8250]

I collect cologne so I have roughly 60 options..... however they are categorized by occasion and season. One of my new favorite colognes is Mercedes Benz Intense. It's a pleasing scent profile and more modern take on Dior Fahrenheit.

One my favorite winter scents is F by Ferragamo Pour Homme. Its also a bit of a beast so don't over spray. I have been wearing that fragrance since I was a senior in high school. I'm 30 know, so that tells you how much I like F by Ferragamo Pour Homme lol.

Good one OG! Savauge Is my Go to. I have like 8. It all depends on what I feel like spraying. But to answer your question. I say get all the cologne you can afford. It is to many good scents out there to be just having 1 or 5. My collection grow every month when I smell something new. Jimmy Choo Intense, Bvlgari Wood essense, Issey Miyake, Sean john unforgiven just to name a few. Good Looking O.G. :)

I developed collection colognes as a hobby over a year ago. Many are rack store pickups and those and I have found that buying to just buy and try is silly. You should own as many as you have room for and how many you can realistically wear.

[@spectre5x5]

Thank you for this! I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about clothes but very inexperienced with fragrance. I have a couple now but will definitely try the ones you mentioned. To me, clothing is more tangible. Fragrance is not and very subjective. Trial and error. You're definitely correct about being conservative at work. I actually will not wear any at work to avoid being perceived as unprofessional.

The One is my everyday scent. Regardless of scent, the key is how to wear your cologne. Many men do not understand this important process and it costs them regardless of what they're wearing.

[@StanleyLamar]

Thanks for the info. I have a general understanding of "Summer" and "Winter" colognes, but have never purchased with that in mind. My go to and favorite brand is Hugo Boss. I tend to think many of those scents are Summer. How would you classify them?

[@melvinmckinney9120]

Great video Jeff. I own six bottles of cologne and I just bought a bottle of Hugo Boss Number One, which is one of my favorites. My other favorite is Aramis and I also like JOOP and Jovan Musk .

Hey OG, long time subscriber here, and love the fragrance content. I think you have a great way to categorize fragrance collections, and I think you are spot on. I'll only add to your method that as your nose developes and you seek out"more", you'll find the niche category. Another thing that happens is if you are out and someone else is wearing that Sauvage. Or you got that promotion. Or you are the leader in your group. Time to move UPSTREAM. But that's Part 2!
