where is that blue shirt from that you are wearing?

[@rob1977tank]

You should do a tutorial on deodorant and the kind or type to wear with cologne....maybe by telling us the brand. I have purchased many things from you and like every thing I ever bought. I only say this about the cologne and deodorant because it's very very difficult to find a good deodorant that last and doesn't stain.

[@Artak091]

Counter argument in defense of wrist. A lot of early flirting while they get comfortable with you involves light touching so theyll get a whiff of the fragrance. Maybe you brush their hair aside, lightly touch their collarbone or shoulder.

[@QMS9224]

also if you are tall and they are short they will be closer to your arm height

Not to mention, people can smell the cologne on your wrist when you shake hands. People tend to keep an arm's length distance when they first meet new people.

[@_yungxchris_]

I remember when Alpha told us to spray the areas where he’s telling us not too 😵‍💫

[@alexp601]

When was that though? A few years ago? Things change all the time and opinions change. That’s just how things work. Alpha is just a man giving us his (informed) opinions. And opinions change over time. Something he said ten years ago won’t necessarily still apply today.

[@_yungxchris_]

@@alexp601 I hope ur not buying no more of alpha m products or giving in to his “deals” u can’t believe everything on the internet just cus he says it works for him, yes many of his vids have advice are helpful for the youth or men who simply lack hygiene or proper care or routine, who didn’t have that opportunity from there own dad like my self. But at the same time you control your own life your prefer your own proper methods and different things work for different people not everyone has his quality in fact they might even be better. @alexp601 best things don’t come from little things to make u happy. As a man taking advice from another it is very helpful but again ain’t no one hating we all prefer different things. Some of us have the money to buy lugubrious items such as colon or even clothing but I’m not disagreeing with ur opinion or Alpha m it’s simply my “choice”. If your really into alpha thats great I hope u follow ur own work out routine, your own meal plan, and stay focus on becoming a better version of your self each and ever day the way alpha m does I don’t know how long I’ve been off social media or KZbin but alpha was the best thing I ran into but after trying all his products I end up finding new products that work for me better even meal plans or the right exercise for my body time. @alexp601 yet again people don’t choose to limit there self you wouldn’t want to grow old in a job you hate wouldn’t that be a thought in mind. 🛐 no hate all love that’s how I was raised 💯

I remember when my ex wife bought me cologne when we got together, she said it’s her favorite. And all I thought was, this is what every guy you’ve been with smells like. No thanks. I like my stuff. Partly because it’s not very popular honestly. I wanna stand out. Not smell like all the other guys at the bar or party.

[@Wasim-s9o8o]

Right

[@marekmarek4146]

With such intense gesticulation, the wrists are the best place to smell

[@l-mac5105]

I would add this tip. Never rub your fragrance after you spray it on your skin. This is the most common mistake that I see from newbies. They think that by rubbing it, they are somehow rubbing it in their skin for better distribution. When in fact, they are destroying the scent profile and the longevity of the fragrance.

[@tlizzle2123]

Not true. A swipe to distribute the fragrance is not enough friction to breakdown the molecules.

Yes it is

[@TonyTheKryptonknightLongshore]

I layer myself as well, but usually I go with Dedcool’s Milk and Xtra Milk, or with Commodity’s Scent Space philosophy. I’ve even as of this week, started layering with a two fresh based fragrances that gave some great compliments.

I hear you brother but I like the wrist. When I make her laugh and her hair comes down a little I reach up and push her hair back. It’s a very intimate move and she ismells my cologne in that intimate moment. Now she smells that cologne anywhere on me and that intimate moment is forever locked into that scent.

[@tagomago2178]

I just made my own eau de cologne from a 300 year old recipe. It wasn`t cheap, so I thought I`d see how an expert would apply it. This video and its` powerful delivery really put me straight on one or two things. Many Thanks from England

[@tomwd.2825]

The screaming is anoying. Doesn't make your point more valid at all. Wrist: its for me, myself and i... i want to smell my fragrance too. So, if i feel it i smell my wrist. Layering: its a playing with emotions. Useing 2 scents is very unique, nobody ever will recognize what you use. its a personal individual thing. Buying a parfume is nothing special, but the usage of it devides you from the rest of the bunch. My [about 90] fragrances multiply themself by layering to an amont you will never get by just buying stuff... ok not every scent matches with all the others but experimenting is so much fun. Don't listen to the dude here, layer! Layering with cheap deodorant is a no-no, this is true.

[@Buck_Bentley]

Anyone else remember that like 6 years ago, Alpha would advertise the wrist spray all the time? Wonder what changed his mind and why he didn’t address that he use to advertise it?

[@TravisAndrews-lb1kk]

Nope

[@mianrowan]

Because it does make sense waste of a spray. If you only used 2 sprays both on the wrist unless it's something crazy strong like elixir no one including yourself is going to smell it

[@FuckPedophileBiden]

@@mianrowan Wrong.

[@mickd9]

[@tiffsaver]

I LOVE what you said about CHOOSING YOUR OWN FRAGRANCE. First of all, no one's body chemistry is the same, so different scents will always smell slightly different on different men. Second, everyone has a totally different personality, which a different fragrance will bring out. And third, if you don't even have enough confidence in yourself to be a "big boy" and make this decision yourself, perhaps you should remain at home playing video games in your parents' basement.

[@TonyTheKryptonknightLongshore]

Thank you brother! Thank you, thank you, thank you! For most of this video, I’m there with you. I do however layer my fragrances from time to time -specific ones howeve). For example, in using the Commodity line with their Scent Space thinking, I can start with two spritzes of Bold on my neck pulse points, then go Expressive on either both sides my clavicle OR one on my upper chest (3 to 4 total), and if desired later on in my day after six hours or so and if I’m out at my bar or with friends, I refresh with a spritz once with the personal selection. That gives me a total of 4-5 spritzes in a 12 hour day. I really enjoy wearing their Milk, Book Velvet, or Gold scents. I also do the same with the Dedcool line, but only with their Milk and Xtra Milk fragrance.

[@Dewsyoutube]

wrists and inner elbows ARE good points, especially for taller guys. and there isn’t anything wrong with having a signature scent. sure ppl will start to recognize it simply as how you always smell, but that doesn’t make it smell any less great

[@The_Mavs_Are_Bums]

Always spray on neck, behind ears and wrists

[@marcosgimenez2369]

They have always been used and will continue to be used, because if you want your perfume to project those are the places that have palpitations for something when someone wants to see if another person is dead. touch those areas the neck, the inside of the elbow and the inside of the wrist to see if it is alive and for that same reason these are the areas that when you move will expand the aroma of your skin... if he says otherwise he is wrong since that is proven.

Gentlemen, Nautica Voyage is an amazing scent for a guy on a budget. No need to use Tom Fords or Parfums de Marly to go to the grocery store. 6.7 oz bottle of Voyage is like $30, it’s a compliment monster. Its not as popular as sauvage or Eros, so you won’t smell like every other dude at the club. Also has great long lasting performance. Every dude should have voyage at least as an everyday wear to preserve their expensive fragrances.

[@novumdomine9925]

Micro perfumes is the best for samples. You get 30% off or buy two get one free promos all the time. Scent bird doesn’t have their selection. Scent split is better selection wise for Niche but they are stingy AF. The best for blind buying or purchasing a scent you are familiar with is Fragrancenet. I got a 4.2 oz tester of Layton Exclusif for $74. Compared to $480 for retail new it was a heckuva deal. You just have to check often because the great deals get scooped up quick. The PDM fragrance he held up last is Kalan. Really good gourmand fragrance. Chicks like it.
