All these points are literally why this was always one of my most honored and respected KZbin channels in my watches and subscriptions, probably the top, before the points were reiterated here, I already loved it for those reasons. And the antithesis of THIS channel and it's types - are what have irked and plagued KZbin for at least a decade now. This Chan and it's discussions are legendary and memorable and I remember so much including the different rooms behind you from Amen and Versace and all the other 'non-indugent', honestly interested reviews. This Chan is a 'tip of the spear' to me, not just how I weigh other fragrance reviews, but as a measure of all channels 'straightforwardness' and sincerity. And none really compares.

YES!! A fragrance channel with the old school mentality! Count me absolutely in! Totally agree that the peak of fragcom was when people just did it for the love. I’m glad there’s still some likeminded people out there. This is great news! (SOTD - Intense Cafe)

i came to this channel - i believe in 2013/2014 and since then I value it the most from all fragrance channel - no "sexy panty pussie-catching fragrances", no drama involving, professional yet not boring approach to fragrances and very informative. I also like how despite moving along with our lives - channel still keep its form. Regards from Poland :)

Man, thank you Dracdoc, there’s only a handful of real ones left, You, Scentrifugal Force, I miss BottomNote, and a handful of others (You all know who) Other reviewers started off cool but have turned into commercials, not knocking their hustle but man it’s turned into a competition for subs, views, and $$$$$. It’s so obvious. I’ve been part of the fragrance community since 2012. Always love & support from my end. Appreciate you sir

Welcome back Cody. I just picked up a bottle of Estee Lauder's Knowing. It's vintage. It has a short list of ingredients. Man, I can't believe how good these women's perfumes were back then. Today we would call it unisex.

i remember his first video jpg le male vs million and then full review of creed aventus with his crazy story on party and comparsion to wiessman mf roadster - those seem to be very down to earth and real. today i think he just his plot and just went full enteprenour, not necessary with passion for fragrance

I've always appreciated the fact you've done this "fragrance thing" out of passion and not for financial gain or notoriety. The only thing I would ask is that your camera be adjusted for the daylight in the background...gives the video a washed-out, grainy feel. Cheers!

You’re what’s right about fragrance reviews. I still like watching other reviewers but I really respect your opinion. I live by sample before you buy…if you’re not sure after 5ml it’s probably not bottle worthy.

This is why my wife and I love yours and Robes08 videos. And thanks for the LIDGE. Smells great and I remember when you first bought it. It's your second bottle because your first one had some of the letters missing.

I'm glad you're keeping it one way. The trend now is alot of KZbin fragrance aficionados trying to get you to buy their scents or looking for attention. I slowed down on watching alot those guys because of that. You was one of the first people I started watching and although you've slowed down I still enjoy and watch your videos. You've always kept it real. God bless my brother and I love the kids pictures. Too cute 😍

Started watching cologne reveiws in Fall '13. it was always about getting information about colognes i was interested in. Miss some of the older reviewers who stopped reviewing videos. Currently getting Armaf. i have Milestone and CDNI edt but plan on buying Siliage and CDNI edp. Milestone beats Creed MI in every catagory. if you nab some samples it would be interesting to know your thoughts on clone houses

I think you shot yourself in the foot there by making this pledge that no-one asked you for. People with perfectionist strict all or nothing personalities often do this. You should have enjoyed making your videos that we love and kept the door open for reaping the benefits of your hard work. Anyway, your call of course.
@dracdoc2 жыл бұрын
This pledge is BECAUSE I've been doing this. Accepting samples, money other other items inventible skews ones opinion n a positive light towards said items. I've learned that I cannot be fully impartial being too close, that's why it's being done. I've also learned that if money is introduced as an incentive into something I do, it takes on a different tone... its not fun and games anymore ... you have obligations to upload.. you can't fully speak your mind. This isn't shooting myself in the foot by not accepting money, its freeing oneself from said shackles. This isn't hard work to me and that's the point.
