Fragrance Addiction (Dark Side Of This Game)

[@GSZEUS1926]

F*ck the crazy equipment and editing! Even if you could do it I’d still prefer this style! This is what makes you Joy Amin. Feels like talking to a friend, face to face, if we want fancy editing we can find 100 reviewers, but this simplicity is what made you this Legend in the game! Love from London my brother!

[@Zepster77]

Whoaaa Georgios said it….!!! 🌅🌠

[@amir021idm]

addiction is related to anything that boosts our dopamine, buying things that we like is one of them

[@FashionRoadman]

Haven’t commented on your videos before but just want you to know that you’re literally the main fragrance reviewer I watch despite the minimal setup. I just want to hear genuine opinions with no ulterior motive which you provide perfectly

[@rudytorres4527]

Joy at 4 AM?! You are a hard-working man. I enjoy your content, and your fragrance comparisons are second to none. Keep doing your thing. Whether you move to a nice studio, or you continue to film at home, I’ll be here for it, my man.

[@drblitzkreig]

Honestly he's a gem. Always come here for quality reviews than for presentation

[@louisbullard6135]

Probably one of the Sincerest Fragrance reviewers and a genuine person. His review’s are great but there is nothing wrong with a little flash. A Studio would be classy and actually help preserve and organize his massively expensive Collection. Rock on Joy!!!!

[@dannytetreault]

3:22 improve production? That’s what I like about you. Simple. You are one of the real OG’s in the fragrance community. Love the Channel!

[@lovideo4619]

your content is so great just because it shows so much passion, and the lack of a special setup makes it so natural and familiar, so close to the heart... keep it up 💗

[@zulfiqarkarrar2418]

Hey joy Amin Respect from Pakistan Simplicity is the most difficult proposition to be presented by any viewer. At least, before going to purchase any cologne, I do watch your views on the product. Those are sincerest reviews that we receive online. Keep going brother

[@alfredkweitsu1314]

Joy, I am from Ghana and I love you bro. A similar climate like yours Keep it up. Very natural educative. Soo Authentic. Love you bro

[@Musa-bt8wt]

I come to this channel whenever i want to see a fragrance comparison, review or recommendation from a friendly face, you do not come off as egotistical or arrogant in any way possible, you seem like one of the most genuine and friendly people especially for a content creator. keep doing things your way, we love you Joy!

[@CAA84788]

Honestly Joy, I love the videos. I think the “prettiness and high production” is overrated in fragrance. Mostly we are trying to describe a smell through video which is no easy task. A fancy camera does not change the description at all. Keep it up brother, love your work.

[@marcjohn9404]

Your setup is fine, never really had a problem with it myself. As far as fragrance addiction goes, I know it well. When you're really passionate about something like this, it really can end up being like an addiction because you can get caught up in always trying something new instead of just enjoying what you already have. There are so many fragrances that I see every day and I want to try them all, and when I see them I can feel them tapping into my craving for more fragrances. I start to think about whether that fragrance will be discontinued, whether it will go up in price, and then I come back down to earth and remind myself that I have so many fragrances already, and that I don't need it yet.

[@zenos.5315]

Just be yourself and do what makes you happy. God Bless my brother.

[@stanlee6783]

Joy we seeing and hearing u clearly is all we need ..forget every negative comments

[@RUDAZE]

I trust 3 or 4 reviewers when I'm looking to make a purchase. You are definitely One of them. Thanks for all the help in my research of a fragrance 👊🏽💯

[@joeywilliams6712]

Who are the others? Just curious

[@Vinicius-qr5vv]

Which are these reviewers? help us to get more unbiased opinions, like Joy.

[@RUDAZE]

@@Vinicius-qr5vv Gents scents, chaos fragrance, Cuba knows, curly fragrance, scent trail.. that's pretty much it, hope it helps

[@dannytetreault]

I appreciate your honesty regarding improving your production quality. It’s fine. Cell phone, few lights, handheld microphone and nothing but fragrances. I would love more fragrances in my collection. I have gone into debt (not credit card debt but using some of my bank savings) to build a small collection of 40-50 large colognes, 24 travel-sized decants, and 30 samples. It doesn’t seem enough. I focused on clones and cheapies, and now I regret it! I wish I focused on quality. I wish I had a Wish list with a priority and corresponding buying schedule. Thanks, Amin. DannyFragrance.

[@samyyyyyyy]

Great video Joy. Its the truth, it can get dark. I'm glad I'm out of that place now. Moderation is so important.

[@Malcolm1959]

Joy brother, stay who you are... true to yourself and your passion... Yes there are some great reviewers on KZbin many with studios and great production but you remain one of my favourites ALL because of your style of reviewing and your obvious love of bringing them to your followers... I wish you good health and happiness from the UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@LithiumBG]

This was really timely for me, as I just got from 1 fragrance to like 70 in an year and a half. Also, about the video production - I like it just fine the way it is, I feel you more closely related, than if you do some of the Jeremy's spins and whatnot. Thank you and keep up the good work!

[@Wisoo]

I don't mind the production quality, your videos are good and your love for fragrances shine through your work

[@hardeylim]

Most of the time I don't even watch with video, I just listen. Thank you Joy for the amount of dedication.

[@vladimirart758]

You are so lucky Joy. I watched a documentary about your country ( dark side of Bangladesh). Very hard to live without work for sure. This is a expensive “hobby “ 😅

[@handreebowee8919]

I found your youtube because of emir frenetic review and turn out i really like the way you review perfume. Your word have great impact for me.Thank you for that.

[@traviszajac1160]

I love your videos as they are, I've seen hundreds and they were all useful, I started collecting this year and now I'm buying my first 2 niche pieces - 1 PdM and 1 Amouage. It really became my hobby also thanks to you. Greetings from Central Europe. I wish thousands more videos from you.

[@aheimdahl5201]

Joy, your present Setup is fine. Good Video, clear Audio and you have that - nothing else is needed.

[@nathanielsalvador6537]

Always watching your videos. And I prefer your set up and style. Makes it feel that I was having a good conversation with you everytime I watch. I even watch your videos while driving if I have no one to talk to specially about collecting fragrance. You are much appreciated for your work. So much love from the Philippines. Cheers brother. More power to you. Stay being awesome. ❤️❤️❤️

[@benatuluku2739]

Wise Man! This is real talk and one of your major strengths: you are REAL!! No faking, no man-pleasing! I never even thought of your not using high grade production, expensive camera, etc. Who cares when I’m getting high quality detailed and trusted, honest reviews? That’s what we watch reviews for not for the bling or glitz. Do what you do, the way you do it, man! This makes you unique! There’s no reviews like Joy Amin!

[@benatuluku2739]

Wow! Wow! Wow!! I’m honored!

[@gil8328]

Thank you for the real talk and for being the voice of reason in this community 🙏

[@RaffiDiranBassclef]

It's good to hear you talk about this bro 🙏

[@squibys2262]

Your channel popped up in my feed after i watched some TLTG reviews. I only started watching reviews to make a purchase for a gift but i do have a appreciation for nice fragrances. You now make up 90% of my watchlist in your niche, keep up the great work. Ive heard of the other channels but i would never watch them, most of the channels i watch are sub 80-90k so that counts for nothing.

[@nestcanz]

Thank you Joy for your self-reflection. I think islam is great in controlling the addiction and setting priorities. Alhamdulillah! Greetings from the Czech Republic.

[@Tschouki]

25 years ago I was enthusiastic about Hi-Fi. I bought a Hi-Fi system for 6, 500$. I remember clearly the owner of the Hi-Fi store telling me - "you are a technophile, not an audiophile. An audiophile spends that money on CDs, not on a system". This remark registered. Today I am enthusiastic about scents. I have less than 20 FBs, but I have dozens of samples. If it's scents you are crazy about, a sample (or small decant) is enough. People that buy many FBs are not perfume lovers, but rather are addicted to buying stuff, to packaging, to brand names. If all you care about is the juice, a sample is good enough. A bottle worthy scent is only a scent you know for sure you would wear/layer frequently. BTW, since I layer all the time, 15 FBs can create hundreds of scents !!! for example, today I've layered 3 perfumes in a certain way, and I've created a very unique and wonderful scent (my own scent/creation).

[@TheShumoby]

💯❗

[@jaybowie6529]

People want and expect more and from you Joy due to your context, knowledge, excellent reviews, and humor. That's a great thing and that should show that you are appreciated for your hard work. At the same time, you are human and have to be a little self with your time and make sure Joy is healthy and okay. You don't need the new gadgets and the the best 🎙️ mic/lighting. We reviewers tune in because we all have became fans and love listening to you toward each fragrance and personal life stories. Keep up the good work buddy 👍.

[@DarkRockDemon]

Keep doing what you are doing and keep being yourself. If you are rich and famous but loose yourself try to become someone else to please people, you have failed in life. Big time lurker, first time commenter. You remind me of myself but more mature. But remember to keep the child alive in you because when it dies so do you. Be happy and love your vids.

[@ShitalrajPawar123]

Sir, I was going crazy for my collection! Thanks for this, now I'm feeling better! 🙏

[@kcollins114]

I appreciate what you do. You cover mainstream fragrances as well as lesser known ones. Keep doing what you do.

[@wendelldunbar8894]

You are my most trusted reviewer.....great attitude always positive. Thank you

[@paulromero7082]

I follow you because you try your hardest to not tear down other fragrant houses for their shortcomings. Rasasi Shuhrah though, was a negative experience for me. Hawas, Dareege, Crocodile, and Armaf Sillage have been bangers thus far for me.

[@scentleman8005]

So true. Tank you for these inspiring Words. I will remeber them when i feel guilty next time and then i make it better.

[@Chadblake1]

Hi Joy. Basic setup or not. True knowledge seekers don't care. I haven't cared about that. What matters is what's in your mind. When I First saw your video, seeing your perfumes in the background is a good enough best setup/production. Good enough for me. I appreciate your perspective and knowledge on fragrances. BTW. D & G light blue forever is a great fragrance 😉

[@ismael85]

Congrats for your job. You are reviewing all fragrances.. because you love them most of the reviewers only do list of 10 this, 10 that, bug compliments list.. lists lists lists because that is what get more views i think.. I even listened once that if they give a review of a fragrance that people dont care, youtube will not show the channel anymore or something like that.. so appreciate you for doing it for love people who really like perfumes dont want to only see list of better perfumes.. that is for who does not know much..

[@orlanditto.scents]

What matters here is not how good your camera is or how good you are at editing. The content is more important and your reviews are very very good. You are very genuine with your reviews and that's what this community needs. Please keep making videos as you do, they are great!

[@hugoderrica6155]

I love this type of videos you give us. Your reviews are excellent, but that is clearly not the only thing you have to offer. Thank you for your honesty, and to be real, for me, this 20 minutes went by very fast, don't worry about boring people. Cheers !

[@alonsonomad74]

Bless you, dear Joy! You are unique and true!

[@akinwande0209]

Almost 200 bottles in 2 plus years 🤷‍♂️ this video definitely speaks to me

[@YordanKamenov]

Joy I have an idea about your content and I think it will be very interesting. You can do a part 2 about fragrances that you've been reviewed before and it will be interesting to talk about what you think about it now brothery

[@Kashif1655]

Brother to me you don’t need to change anything. You’re doing a fabulous job. I am amazed by your perfume knowledge.Rreally like your work. Love from Pakistan.

[@clintwareham179]

Mate you have a good heart and a beautiful soul. You do you. Don't worry about the haters they are empty. Be at peace with what you have I have enjoyed your content for many years. Don't change a thing brother what you do makes people happy and more importantly makes you happy too. Peace and love is all you need . Thanks man

[@khodermadani5913]

You did extremely well, Respectfully Lebanon

[@arashfarvardin]

thanks for sharing that. i have less than 10 fragrances and i really struggle with the urge to buy more. i decided to buy 1 fragrance every season or reward myself a fragranc when i do something good in my job....

[@innocentnzuza3749]

No flashy LED lights on your production. Keep it real as it is. Your channel is very unique and diffrent.

[@josegarcia-bz8ct]

To me is fine the way it’s been 🎉 don’t worry about it in till u can do what u want great job 👏🏼 bro 😎

[@bolo5584]

I enjoy watching your videos, believe me you don't want to be like Jeremy, that guy is a just a con man and a clown.

[@adityaudhani4386]

You're one of the very few Fragcomm KZbinrs who are absolutely impossible to hate by anyone. Pure class, humbleness, and honesty. Kudos to you, sir.

[@hoo_jii]

I’m prone to addiction so this subject is important.

[@nafisaproma7143]

I really appreciate your reviews. Make a video based on which perfumes are best for summer wedding mostly for bride and groom...no one talks about this

[@mancmikectid.]

Relax, you and Ash are by FAR the BEST.

[@harri3tinku]

Its always a pleasure watching your videos bro, thanks for all the efforts. To be precised you are the best influencer in Asia and i buy my perfumes based on your recommendations i got TDH just based on your reviews it was a blind buy and i love it. I have collected around 15 to 20 bottles most of them are based on your suggestions. Thanks a lot for helping the tropical people to choose and wear what suits this weather condition

[@neilbondad9477]

I am watching a lot of fragrance channel but I like your down to earth attitude and demeanor, I also like Redolescent and Brooklyn Fragrance Lover but sad to say that BFL is already sleeping. Be safe brother.

[@MrStreetballer5Official]

Man I just want to say thank you Joy, you seriously are one of the few KZbinr's that got me really interested in Frags and gave me a newfound perspective on the industry. Your craft and dedication to what you do shows and we all really really appreciate you brother. Plus you've deff. saved me from purchasing some bad fragrances in the past, for that my wallet and sanity thanks you :) I hope your successes come tenfold and the new house comes out amazing, god bless my friend :D

[@tosifkhan327]

frst thing I am a big fan and you never let me down. second thing my perfume are like my children and I cannot sell them too third thing is I am in big debt trap due to my perfume addiction

[@billybillz18]

Even if you have the space brother moving the 100s of fragrances to your new house or apartment is the most embarrassing feeling ever. And you carrying them thinking this isn’t normal. 😢

[@spleenful]

Keep up the good work Joy! 41 is young)

[@bondjames-bond7664]

Hi Joy bhai , Please make a top 10 list on perfumes that are : Cheap + fresh + long lasting + Can be used in high heat 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@SlapUpMill]

Stay doing what you enjoy. I keep trying to lend my spare camera and gear to my sister Smurfy but she just wants to sniff the frags and film on a phone.

[@ismael85]

bad thing about having so many is that you dont know what to use... I have just a few and still I sometimes keep thinking nad its hard to decide.. so imagine having thousands

[@adilkhan-io4ow]

Dear Joy. You are honest and genuine review. I love your style . But I am thinking how you manage to buy all expensive perfume. Great job...

[@jonathantromp1126]

I see reviews from most reviewer, but will always end trusting Joys review...humble and honest is the road to success...doesn't mean rich in money but rich in the hart...keep it up as it is.....regards all the way from Aruba...

[@kevinduprey9326]

Your doing it right. Keep it simple and save $ and eventually take to next level. If not, that's ok too. Unfortunately drama and controversy with negative energy seem to be most profitable channels. Never let yourself be a slave to your channel due to needed financial decisions. Keep a REAL job.

[@alanburch8499]

Hi, for me you’re doing a great job. I value your opinion. Perhaps because I’m almost 60 years of age, I don’t need nonsense. Just your good honest opinion. Keep up the good work. 🤟

[@joneasley5050]

Hi Joy I have been watching your reviews for at least 3years or so. In my opinion, your videos have person to person vibe that I enjoy. Bless you brotha and your endeavors. 🙏🏼

We just want an honest opinion about a fragrance. Your set up is fine. All we care about is truth about a fragrance being purchase worthy. U r doing a good job!!!

[@mohdkashif811]

I was also fraghead before but that's not real life and the purpose of life it's just a escaping from real real life and taking refuge in it but like to hear wise words from you about afterlife , inshallah i pray allah help you to overcome this fragnance itch of smelling new fragnance everday i was is the same position before but like I said that's not the meaning of life you get from its only allah from where you get.

[@Emeryfragrance]

Great content bro keep doing your thing

[@melibnice2126]

Great video. Thank you so much for this content. Keep up the good work. God Bless🙏🏾

[@AbdulBasit-lc7qt]

Brother Joy the most important part of your reviews are the descriptions and analysis which you do very well. I said it before your descriptions are sometimes almost cinematic haha. You also describe the emotions and states of mind that these fragrances can invoke. I also like your set up because like someone else mentioned it helps keep the viewer more engaged in my opinion. Love from your Bengali brother in Coventry, UK. 👍

[@jankucera8505]

your production value is very good... you have advanced a lot, a studio wont change much at this point - what matters is content

[@edverbeek6292]

I love you keeping it simple.
