TJ, I give you props. You were the first content creator I ever seen talk about Oud Maracuja and Blue Talisman, I remember you getting blue talisman before it was a full release.

My brother! The support does not go unnoticed man. Thank you every single time! I get influenced a lot myself to be fair - but that's why the best thing for me is to go out and test them as much as possible and maybe try the brands / fragrances that others aren't talking about. I love the game! ❤️🔥🫡

@@TJTalksScents of course my bro. That’s the only way to do it mate! Gotta get out there and formulate your own opinions, just like the other day when we were in harrods it was obvious our individual tastes lead us to prefer different scents like with the Xerjoffs and LV’s

There are 4 main downsides of hyped up fragrances on social media imo. 1. Due to the nature of TikTok and Instagram creators only make very short videos without in-depth reviews which leads to many people blind buying fragrances they should have sampled before. That’s why I prefer watching YT videos or reading blogs before ordering lol. 2. Many newbies to the perfume world don’t know enough about longevity , sillage, nose-blindness and skin chemistry to make qualified comments about any given fragrance. If a fragrance isn’t performing on your skin that doesn’t mean that it’s not beast-mode and vice versa. 3. If brands realize that a fragrance is hyped up (doesn’t matter if the brand is Arabian, designer or niche) they tend to overprice and reformulate it. This leads to many originally great perfumes losing either price value, quality or both. 4. Literally everyone tries to smell the same leading to a loss in individuality. In light of this I really enjoy your nuanced videos TJ, keep going!

I totally agree with every single point you made. I have a massive passion for fragrances and Tik Tok and short form content is great but I could literally speak about one fragrance for hours on end so KZbin is perfect and I’m enjoying it a lot more now for sure. Yes!! Brands are messing around way too much and increasing prices go crazy amounts. Things are goi g from £30 to almost £100 in a matter of months. Also it’s so easy to talk about things people know and love but I enjoy trying loads of scents and putting people onto some new stuff as well that they may not have even heard of. Even if the content doesn’t do well I’m still happy 🙌 Appreciate you a lot!

Perfectly said, a lot of fragrance newbies (mainly younger kids) say certain fragrances suck, moreso very reputable expensive niche/expensive designer. Not to say that fragrances can't suck, but just because something isn't for you, doesn't mean it sucks. Kids don't realize skin chemistry, nose blindness and maturity and usage of fragrances all play a part in fragrances

@@TJTalksScents Likewise, and especially if they're niche they're not bad they're just not my cup of tea. Albeit sometimes fragrances are just objectively bad, but a lot of people equate "not my cup of tea" with "this fragrance sucks"

Dear TJ, when you say a particular fragrance gives you 5 hours projection. Do you think you could do a video on how you spray your scent to give you this 10-hour projection? Appreciate may seem lame, but it could be an eye opener watching you demo on a £150 minimum spent bottle....?
