[@thomaskwan3251]

@@DannyCSacks If you were a famous painter would you sell something that is unique one of a kind something that is made with passion and sell yourself short? No you wouldn't the price isnt high so he makes money cause tbh he would make more money using cheaper ingredients at a lower price ($50) a bottle and he would sell them like hot cakes but at a cost an inferior product and being sold on the idea of it rather than product it self. He got one of the best perfumers of the world to make this perfume and put alot of effort into making this and keep in mind Jeremy Fragrance isnt a billion dollar company. He is making a designer fragrance with designer fragrance materials. Similar to a guy making micro brew out of his garage but hes doing it for real with a real a facility, real perfumers real ingrediants. Don't undervalue his work. If anything I think he should sell it for even more but thats just my opinion why can Creed sell bottles for $400 but someone that actually cares about his consumers cant sell his for $200. Love you Jeremy bro don't sell your self short. And maybe he should come out with a cheaper/daily driver/Signature scent type of cologne but you lead with your strongest foot not your weakest.

This is true but this is based on the conclusion that Jeremy's pricing is a money grab. Jeremy doesn't want money, although I'm sure money is nice. Jeremy wants success, money is only the byproduct. You don't get the respect and success Jeremy wants with designer price fragrances. Jeremy is looking to become an icon. And I say this as an observer only and not a fanboy. I have not and do not see myself buying a fragrance one cologne.

Like Jeremy a lot, but the fragrances are ridiculously over priced. There’s a difference between being a big youtuber and having a big brand. FragranceOne is not a big brand. Having a big KZbin channel does not merit the price tag. You could get a bottle of Creed for that. The bottle is basic, atomiser poor, not a fan of the “situational names”, very bland and boring, all with a massive price tag. Not worth it at all.

to be honest, is it a mistake? His fragrances seem to be doing very well for a release like this (without backing from a store or other company).

He's contantly doing half off, 100$ off, 2 for 1 deals etc...he just cashed in and raising the expectations first, but after a while he will sell them out at lower prices.

IMO Jeremy wanted to save on cost hence the basic packaging and bottle design. After having bought Office for Men, I can say that the fragrance smells strongly synthetic and nothing unique about it. It’s a crowd pleaser, lasts 3 to 4 hours in tropical climates and that’s about it. Something an average joe would spray on just to smell acceptable. You’re well off buying Versace Pour Homme compared to this because for one, it smells ‘better’ and it also projects longer.

[@zzergg8188]

Yes, Jeremy's target are those looking for compliments but those people generally do not want to spend top niche price to attain those compliments. Top dollar consumers generally want unique and complex smelling fragrances, not just compliments. This is the problem in Jeremy's push to sell his brand, there is a disconnect between his product, product pricing and target consumer. The dots do not connect. I do wish Jeremy success though because I respect the motivation his endeavor brings to the world. People bash his pricing based on the idea that Jeremy's pricing is a short term money grab, which it is NOT. His pricing is actually long term thinking. It's a gamble though as the contention it creates is like wrestling a bear. If he wins by maintaining the endurance needed, i think his reward will be success and respect. But without a doubt he needs to work on perfecting his brand, these products now are feeder products.

The problem is Jeremy wants to be the next "Creed". Even though all of Creed fragrances are on pricey side, demand for their fragrances is still high.

@@WeeziePop just got the samples today. The red fragrance, Dendera, is absolutely stunning. Like nothing else I've ever smelled. Highly recommend getting the sample pack! I think I'm going to have to get a full bottle, but they're out of stock at the moment.

[@Regilliwret]

I was disappointed when I got my bottle. Jeremy kept pushing that it has oud and I smell zero oud, it smells like an Ulra Male flanker, just a sweet fragrance with some spice. I was looking forward to getting a wearable oud.

[@Fresh_Indeed]

same! I was so disappointed when I first sprayed it on my skin. I immediately thought to my self "ultra male" which i have a 4 ounce bottle of already -_- Never again! So glad that I only bought the 10Ml bottle. I will say that it is a decent scent but very much not worth the price.

[@ogkush6800]

@@Fresh_Indeed Is it better than ultra mâle or too close ?

[@GSPA100]

If Jeremy fragrance would be a normal person selling his cologne at normal prices then he would make so much more money. I would buy his colognes but never at his prices. 50$ should be the amount. He is too greedy.

[@LarryBirdsJumpshot]

I feel like for an introductory fragrance he should've priced it about $80 max I'd say. Then if he wants to make a more "premium" version then price that as he goes

[@evoleo7603]

Don't be upset just because you can't afford it.

[@eddyshasha1996]

EVO LEO it’s not about not affording it, even if u have the money it’s not worth that money. Having the money or not doesnt matter

[@stevemcgowen]

@@eddyshasha1996 You haven't smelled it, yet you can say it isn't worth the money?

[@stevemcgowen]

Just keep buying CK1 or some other cheap cologne and stop complaining about something you can't afford...

[@TheRowlandstone73]

I can see how difficult that was for you, giving it a positive review! Fair play though, it just goes to show how honest and professional you are. Respect.

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great first impression and I enjoyed it and I can't wait to see full review and have a blessed day

[@Seabersify]

I know this is an old video, I appreciate the work you do here, been trying to find someone on youtube that is authentic in the fragrance reviews etc. and while I could imagine the scent you're reviewing, this is why I always make it a habit of going to a store with testers and make a judgement call of my own personal tastes, so unfortunately for Jeremy, I won't blind buy this until I visit a store and test it for myself to see if I even like it, let alone worth the "hype".

[@stutru]

I bought the hype with office for men this time last year with the kick starter... and then felt the fragrance was just “meh”... so yeah... much more skeptical with this release... definitely gonna sample first before committing to a full bottle at that price.

[@scottkenny7661]

By a mile, the best fragrance reviewer on youtube! I literally wait everyday for ash’ uploads. Keep them coming you do a great job. I always take your opinion on fragrances into account before i purchase

Wait till it comes out a walmart for 20 bucks

[@aaronbyrd7994]

15:13 This is a very valid point in case anyone didn't hang around for the end! Unfortunately some people are just the "face" for a fragrance line and claim they are the creative director.... Jeremy has always been 100% even if some may not like him!

Great review Ashton!! I appreciate the break in the video from spray to final wear and I get the same results when I put this to my nose. Thanks as always - and pricing yup too high @ full price imo

[@ljkingz9259]

Appreciate the review. Wish he would seriously review his pricing & marketing strategy. From the sounds of it definitely not blind buy worthiness!

Excellent video and analysis on Date for Men, thanks for the discount code, I 2ish I hadn't bought all my Christmas gifts already, I'd love to smell that new Cologne. It'd be great if you and Jeremy would do a video together over video chat or something

[@merope100]

Great and honest review! Now you need to do a Jeremy vs. Similar frags battle. Office vs. Aventus vs. Savauge and date vs. Jpg and I've also heard it compared to invictus or chmen.

[@mattydavitt922]

The channel is growing fast I’ve been watching the subs count last few days and it’s shooting up mate.

[@kob9777]

Thanks for your honest review. So many people talking about naturals and niche and how it smells to them... its Date for men. So the key question isn't how many naturals or synthetics, it is how do women rate it on a man. 8.5 and 9 out of 10s speaks for itself. The only question I have is the price. With the offer is reasonable, but it should be that price to start with.

[@Tsobe]

Nice to see someone without prejudice against Jeremy. Im not even his fan but hate the fragrantica comment section.

[@uhsemehicieronlas3]

well balanced review, you spoil us

[@xXEliteSpartanXx]

Reviews always on point!

[@High99222]

Jeremy talked about the youtubers in his channel and now everyone is scared say something negative about it

[@chriscrux4556]

lol that's what this video made me feel, never realized it was because Jeremy talked about them though. Do you mean when Jeremy punched back and said "it isn't me that you're criticizing its the perfumer and he's very wel knownl". I think this dude took a step back and realized he's giving himself a bad name in the eyes of these perfumers just to spite Jeremy for whatever reason.

[@totalynotfunnyguy6581]

Chris Crux He made a video talking about the other reviews reviewing his fragrance. I think it was kind of a smart move from Jeremy, since now every reviewer know Jeremy watches and it’s afraid of stating their opinion directly, plus, by talking about them they get a shoutout to the 900k Jeremy subs, so they are basically, scared now

[@FrankieBeanss]

jeremy fragrance recently did a live stream and made a $100 off code for the first 100 people so maybe some of you can catch it next time, I was about to buy it with the code but I backed out at checkout still $80 is too much for something not proven

[@sebastienc.2257]

The big thing with the fragrance own fragrances is pricing and packaging. When you look at niche brands they either have amazing packaging with familiar scents that have a twist or simple packaging with unique scents sometimes both.

[@Rich-rd1ge]

I appreciate your review, from what I gather your take is that it is a masculine fragrance. I will order it and try it out. I trust Gerami. Thanks for the review.

[@joh2891]

fair review. I find the fragrance rather tiring to smell and not very unique. much like a shopping mall at christmas time.

[@xdemmons]

Office and Date packaging reminds me of CK One and CK Be. Seems like I have seen it before.

[@calebweintraub1]

I'm not going to buy it, but I appreciate your honest review.

[@1manairband]

Nice review and for being honest. As always you do very well with your reviews IMO.

[@SirOreo62]

Well, sampled this perfume, both before the new bottle color and after. No matter which, this perfume smells like something you buy at Walmart or Marshall’s

[@franksalas5507]

I love it when we get truthful review on any fragrances out there" regardless who it came from or the master perfumer is also! First office for men borrowed from a friend for a week and honestly I've gotten more compliment from wearing Dior sauvage eau de parfum then his product and on my skin same longevity and projection. Lol. So wasn't too impressed with the perfume and definitely wasn't paying niche price for it! Lol. And as for date for men sampled it 2 day's ago and I can honestly say it reminds of two fragrances I own so I blended them together and bingo! Same freaking scent on my skin! Lol 🤣🤣🤣😄😄😄😄😄😄😄 and both bottles together still would be cheaper then this regular designer scent. Anyway just my opinion" I just feel I'd save up and buy parfum de marly, amouage or roja dove fragrances

[@waynemorris3406]

Thanks for your honest assessment as always Ashton. Hope we will see one with your wife and some of her friends giving their opinions too. Merry Xmas from New Zealand 🎅🎅

[@komaboi19]

I was going to buy this when it came out, but I forgot the code and wasn't going to pay the full amount. However, with the discount code you reminded me of, along with the review & comparison to Office for Men, I ended up buying it just now. Jeremy gets a little obnoxious now and then, but I usually like his taste in fragrances. I definitely have grown to like your videos more as time goes on, Ash. The clear honesty helps a lot. Keep up the awesome work.

[@imranhisham908]

Paying $248 for a Fragrance meant for a date essentially leaves my wallet empty to go on a date. No thanks, I'll just wear my aftershave and cross fingers.

[@icecol22]

That's a hefty price tag without the discount code.He needs to lower his prices for his fragrances. I watch his channel(still expensive though).You always have great reviews.

[@MrBreadman386]

I would justify the price if oud was the main player being extrait de parfum but it’s not. It would go against his market, easy to wear mass appealing fragrances.

[@Robbyfrags90]

If I was able to smell the oud in it I would rate it higher and would be able to justify the price but even at 50% off Im disappointed even though it smells pleasant! I was one of the 1st people to smell Date at Scentxplore and it was different when I smelled it that night.....maybe it had more time to macerate and mature but I'm not really sure I guess only time will tell

[@susrev88]

also for his naming idea for the franrances, i think it's deliberately simple to get better results in google for SEO. If you were new to the game, looking for the first decent frangrance, what would you type google? A fragrance for men office/date (because i want a men's fragrance that is suitable for work) or Un Jardin le Boisee l'instant eau fraiche cologne de extrat noir? It's a more intuitive naming though.

[@enrique9754]

Is Jeremy going to do a reaction video? 🤔😂

[@betteryoubetter]

At $250, I'm buying another Parfums de Marley....at $125 I'm buying another bottle of Black Orchid....at around $70-80? I'd buy Date (the fragrance...not a hooker!)....I'm really really trying to get on board with Frag one because its an underdog dude making his way in the big league...but I just cannot thus far.

[@Hosenanzugtasche]

Nothing underdog about using a huge platform to sell watered down crock.

[@LobisAnthony]

I would prefer to buy parfum de marly than this one :p just saying is almost the same price with coupon code

[@DarlingNikki2]

There seems to be almost as much sudden backlash against PdM as Jeremy LOL. I don't know what kickstarted it, but I saw a lot of negative/nasty comments on Demi Rawlings' recent videos. I know she likes PdM and gushes about their fragrances constantly (especially the ones for men) and I noticed several comments basically calling her a shill for PdM and Initio and calling most PdM fragrances overhyped trash. I'm seeing it spilling over onto channels now, so something seems to be brewing against the brand.

[@Lotions.Direct]

I thought it had real oud, now it’s termed “oud essence “ 😂😂😂😂

[@Flawlless]

I liked Office - he took an excisting DNA and tried to improve it. Date however smells like a Mix between Ultramale and BDC EdP to me, with a minimal amount of wood. I'm sure girls will like it but it's dissapointing, there are far better options out there especially for that price.
