The ONLY 5 Colognes All Men NEED (Designer & Niche Fragrances)

[@fibarrar]

My fav 5 would be: Terre D'Hermes (office, formal); Oud for Greatness, Initio (winter, special ocassions); Light Blue Forever, D&G (for extreme heat weather, informal); Aventus, Creed (formal and casual, spring & summer); Explorer, Mont Blanc (informal, everyday use); Bonus: Triumph of Baccus, Argos.

My current 5 favs: 1) Nishane-Nefs 2) Bond 9-Dubai Ruby 3) Dior-Homme Intense 4) Killian-Angel’s Share 5) Ex Nihilo-Amber Sky I tried Bohemian Lime yesterday, and I was immediately transported to the 1960’s as it reminded me of English Leather Lime! I don’t know if it is still around. I agree with you that Dior Homme Intense keeps the Iris’s lipsticky note minimized. No one does the Iris quite like Dior Homme Intense. I consider it a masterpiece. I wish Bond no9 would send you samples to review. For some reason it doesn’t get paid enough attention. I agree that Oud for Greatness is unique though it may share some resemblance in its dna to BR540. It could have easily made my top 5 list. Always enjoy your videos!

Thank you for this video, what great timing for me; I'm currently building (yes, downsizing, well said :D!) my fragrance collection and starting my husband off with his too. My husband is not that bothered with fragrance so I'm going to keep his olfactory wardrobe pretty minimal. I think 5 for a typical bloke is about right, especially if said bloke has a wife with expensive taste, aha! Thank you for this most helpful, inspiring video. Such fun, as always. My husbands current fragrances: 1) Tobacco Vanille by Tom Ford 2) Herod by Parfums de Marly 3) Mousse Illuminee by Rogue Perfumery 4) Ombre Leather by Tom Ford 5) Gold Myrrh Absolute by Carolina Herrera Confidential 6) Memories by The Gate I'm trying to figure out 2 more to bring it to lucky 8, hence my clicking on your video. He could live with just two but I'm the one smelling him and trying to figure out what his colleagues will most appreciate having to inhale also, ha! Simple pleasures. PS= Random question I wish would become a 'tag' online for the high-end fragrance community in general: Which is the lowest price fragrance you own which stunned you into being a favourite, holding its own in the company of the rest of your high end niche collection? I would offer like to offer two of my cheap and cheerful great loves: 1) Anna Sui Classic from the late 1990s (the one with the gothic black filligree and purple juice). Powdery, soft apricot vanilla musk . It was discontinued for YEARS and then a few years ago I saw it in at the Anna Sui counter in a department store in Tokyo and inhaled sharply then discreetly charged over with my eyes locked on the display bottle and bought a couple of bottles. I shouldn't have been such a tightwad and bought even more, knowing it was a limited edition re-release. It's back now, but again, I think its run is limited which is deeply frustrating and induces a very mild strain of anxiety and helplessness in me. I wish they'd keep it permanently in their line up as it's the only great fragrance Anna Sui have ever release, no offense intended to the brand. I think it's an unsung, overlooked offering in general. 2) Jacinthe et Rose by E Coudray. Similar story to above. It's really hard to find and I fear it too has already been discontinued/is being discontinued. Both are really reasonably priced and perfect after-the-shower/hanging out at home fragrances for summertime. You could wear both to bed. Apologies for this expansion being unrelated to the content of this video, I only wanted to give some background info on why I asked my question at the end :)

[@catherinelynnfraser2001]

Santa Maria Novella Ginestra was an eye opener for me. It was an astonishing new scent for me and really inexpensive when I bought it. I didn’t know I loved their version of broom. I also loved Ma Griffe. It is so inexpensive and so quirky yet elegant. I don’t know if it is still available but it is something I wore decades ago and revisited about 15 years ago and now I can’t live without it.

Date/ Evening - Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le Parfum Spring/Summer - Versace Pour Homme Fall/Winter - Givenchy Gentleman EDP Formal - Prada L’Homme or Bleu Noir EDT Note - for my own purposes I can actually live with just 3 as I find them to be interchangeable and versatile. The Terre d’Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver as an Everyday and Spring/Summer, Givenchy Gentleman EDP for Date Nights and Fall/Winter and Prada L’Homme as my formal wear.

I actually had to limit wearing Spice Bomb and Oud For Greatness. I kept getting stopped by people (Men and Women) everywhere I went. Reminds me of my old head-turning Aramis days in my 30's. Just a lite spray or "Greatness" goes a very long way all day!

[@interestingvideos4046]

how amany sprays of spicebomb is okay during summer for office to last whole 8 hours?

[@keithshowell6688]

@@interestingvideos4046 I only spray as far away from my shoulders as possible. Hips and behind my knees or elbows. Body heat does the work outdoors but I don't want anyone in the office to feel they have to take social distancing to the extreme!😄

[@interestingvideos4046]

@@keithshowell6688 loool at social distancing. Never thought of those places cuz I'm a fragrance newby. I appreciate ur reply . All the best

[@louiscarrillo6670]

my take : High Heat Summer: Percious Liquids Blue Agave / Tommy Bahama Marinique {both translate to Night ) Night fall " Bad Boy CH and Eros Flame for spice Fall to Winter Day Blue De Chanel { versatile and well put together ) Honorable mentions to Rochas Man EDP {incredible ) and 90 Pure White Banana Republic was a nice surprise. Carbon by Aaron Terrance Hughes is incredible and as a layer to help with projection.

Thank you so much for your amazing videos. I look forward to them every week. I have a recommendation for a video “how do you sample fragrances at the store?”. I always find it hard to smell multiple fragrances at once, and at many times I find myself unable to smell certain perfumes after smelling others. If you can film in a store and record your own experience sampling new perfumes, I think that would be very helpful. Thanks again and keep those good videos coming!

I got oud for greatness last year for my wedding - great fragrance for fall/spring... could even get away with it on some summer nights. my 5 if I had to drop my collection down to 5 (currently around 50) (All from my collection) versatile/all year - Nishane B-612 date night (fall/winter) - Initio Parfums Side Effect or Oud for Greatness (either or would work) spring/summer - Creed Green Irish Tweed Fall - TF Ombre Leather (2018) fall/winter all occasions - PDM Carlisle just designers (same order) MontBlanc Legend EDP Nuit D’Issey Noir Argent (Issey Miyake) YSL Y EDP Givenchy Gentleman EDP Maison Margiela By The Fireplace (OG bottle)

[@philkreckel]

Amazing video! I love the designer/niche recommendations in parallel.

[@feelsb4reals_]

1. Le Labo santal 33 (fall/winter) 2. Chanel blue EDP/ parfume (fall) 3. YSL Lhomme (spring) 4. Versace Eros (spring) 5. Tom Ford Noir (better than spicebomb) 6. Creed millesime imperial (summer)

[@greeneyesss814]

Thanks Josephine. I bought goldfield and banks bohemian lime based on your recommendation. It has similar vibe as Xerjoff Torino 21. Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱

[@michaelmcnish9367]

1. Everyday : Bleu De Chanel EDT 2. Evenings : Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male Le Parfum 3. Summer : Nautica Voyage 4. Winter : Azzaro Wanted by Night 5. Formal : Bleu De Chanel Parfum

[@vadimpivovar7190]

1. Cedrat Boise Mancera 2. Ombre Leather Tom Ford 3. Naxos Xerjoff 4. Pardon Nasomatto 5. Your Majesty Boadicea

[@mouloudboukhalfa247]

Two of my favourite notes are Vetiver and Patchouli, and Montale Vetiver Patchouli pulled it off amazingly! Have you ever smell it?

[@ryanbriones4026]

My dumb reach are as follows :terre de hermes eau tres Fraiche for hot days (above 25deg C), PDM Layton for cooler days 😁. I'd probably throw in gentle fluidity by mfk or nasomatto pardon for special occasions.

[@donmizzi1497]

Thanks for your recommendation. I bought Spicebomb Extreme after watching this video ❤

[@firefly3570]

Fantastic list!! I would have added Mancera Cedrat Boise to the list

[@spincolor]

Great review as always. But I was surprised Chanel Allure Homme wasn't included, as Josephine raves about this perfume in so many videos.

[@bilalsardar260]

SpicyBomb is going to be my favorite.

[@wearethehaunted3831]

Her voice...all day please. Great selection as well. Love OFG.

[@SIMBA-gd9xu]

Great video as always, will you ever do pronunciations of these fragrances, I could listen to them all day!

[@saf122]

For me an all year round bomb of a perfume from the niche section is Xerjoff Naxos. Pricey but worth every penny.

[@geneercolino4159]

Exciting to enjoy the selection you presented. . . great to see your enthusiasm on the topic. ThankYou

[@Sakellkon]

Great video! I was waiting for this!! My idea based on past videos of yours would be Terre D' Hermes for everyday office, Le male le parfum for cold weather evenings and Dior Homme Intense or Parfum as the formal scent Terre D' Hermes and Dior Homme could be interchangeable.

[@seanoconnor9929]

Terre de Hermes smells like cumin, body odour, and orange zest, def don’t recommend

[@DC00P]

Terre D’ Hermes is the worst smelling stuff I’ve smelled. Now if ur 60 or sumn maybe. I’m 29.

[@LeoR4U]

Terre d’Hermès is really nice - not only for more mature men.

[@MrMelonMan96]

Such good recommendations and categories. I have to try Gentle Fluidity Silver that sounds so good to me!

[@vtl65]

I combine Aventis with Cuir Sacre. They complement each other well.

[@RogueBearCreations]

Your reviews are so valuable! What do you think of Aventus Creed? I’ve ordered online for my husband and not seeing it on your list makes me think is not worth the hype…..your perspective always matters x

[@jusderose]

I don’t mind the scent but i feel there are mixed feelings with the batches. Some are great and longer lasting others more disappointing. I don’t think I’d buy it, I prefer to go for something like MFK gentle fluidity silver (which I did buy 😁)

[@tracer073]

Aventus is played out

[@RogueBearCreations]

Fair enough, I’ve heard the same about batches before, I’ll keep it as an option b for hubby, already got him thanks to your recommendations YSL and Spicebomb…..what a treat, at this rate he will have as many fragrances as me 😏😏😏

[@drgibreal]

I changed my signature from Creed Aventus to MFK’s Gentle fluidity silver and please let’s keep this pick discreet I don’t want everyone to know about it like what happened with Aventus 😅

[@LeoR4U]

Ok, I’m gonna try it.🤣

[@anthonyrmoten]

That Oud For Greatness is my favorite and yes it's very expensive but worth it
