MATÉ TALK #94 [MY 12 FRAGRANCE PICKS FOR 2023 - I LOVE YOU....WHAT??]

[@biggboi1967]

Marcelo, thank you for all the great content you brought in 2023. I’m looking forward to more great content in2024. Happy NewYear homie👊🏽

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Thank you Juan💫 Appreciate the support and constant 'good vibes' homie🙏🏽⚡️ Hoping 2024 is an awesome year for you and family♥️

[@djckl2504]

Have you had any major experience with Etat Libre d'Orange? Consider making video on it? Wondering what would you say on Rien by ELdO

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

This is a brand that I've had little to nothing contact with...however the ones that I have experienced I've loved; I just need to dive in! I can see that you would recommend Rien....any others? Great to hear from you @djckl2504, wishing you the best for 2024🎉💫

[@djckl2504]

I have not tried a lot by ELdO (YET, I just started my perfume Journey) but having watched many of your videos so far it'd be interesting to see ur impression of Rien, I am Trash and Secretions Magnifique (someone who loves Gaultieri's fragrances would really appreciate this one I think) all the best for 2024 to you as well!

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

@djckl2504 yes secretions magnifies is definitely one that is on my radar to test out if anything, but for the mere novelty of it🙄 Awesome to hear from you 💫

[@Scents4em]

Happy New Year Marcelo! 🎉 I hope you enjoy your time away. I’ve said it before and will state it again, I appreciate you! Thank you for making my Wednesday mornings more enjoyable. You can get as emotional and real on this channel as you’d like. Your genuineness is what drew me to your videos and why I eventually became a member ❤ See you in 2024!

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Grazie Mille Emily! What an awesome comment to read♥️ a massive thank you for all your support, I greatly appreciate the genuine conversation💫 Wishing you the best in 2024 and hoping that your family is well🙏🏽

[@DivineFrag]

YT comment section really hates my comments, cause I'll write out a long comment and it'll just get instantly binned by their garbage automoderator. Safe holidays & happy new year though.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

I was wondering why I hadn't heard from you @DivineFrag.... I have noticed that YT algorithm has been a lot stricter with comments...but in some cases not sure why it knocks them out?? But it's good to hear from you mate and I too wish you an awesome 2024💫♥️ very much appreciate all your comments and contribution (I love your insight and view on all the fragrances that you share about...thank you mate👊🏽) Look forward to further connections in 2024😎

[@edwinmalmros6507]

Do you think i should buy Orto Parisi Seminalis or Bergamask?

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Hmmm, both are brilliant and highly unique. If you're in Northern hemisphere then I would recommend Seminalis; awesome as a cooler weather fragrance and Bergamask for more summer vibes. Having said that I do wear both all year round but feel that they project and sit better as per my suggestion above. However, having said this, I still strongly urge that you test on skin first. These are super unique and unusual fragrance's and don't work for everyone (I had an editor that worked for me that HATED Bergamask....for some reason it was highly offensive to him😖) Good luck Edwin!!💫

[@edwinmalmros6507]

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Thanks you for your answer! I have ordered samples of both and I look forward to try them on skin.👍 Your videos are highly informative and insperational, keep up the good work!

Hi, in barbados, we call it rum cake or great cake. It's a cake you find in all the Caribbean islands. I'm glad you got to try it.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Thank you Damian💫 It's the cake that brings the Caribbean together♥️ (super yummy!😍) wishing you best for 2024 🎉

[@darth_hansel4466]

Hey Marcelo! I got Perris Cedro di Diamante and I really like this particular lemon. Are there any other perfumes with cedro you like and recommend? Wishing you all the best for 2024! Kind regards from Berlin! Hans

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Great to hear from you Hans and I have to agree with you that PMC Cedro is exceptional; vibrant, fresh, an incredible citrus burst. I would recommend to you the following that have the same glorious citrus/lemony explosion but now with a twist: Torino 21: Lemon/Lime with a mint herbal vibe Greasque: Lemon/mint but with an added salty element Renaissance: Citrus with a petitgrain greenness....and woods in the base All three are glorious and amazing for their citrus energy🍋💫♥️ Have an awesome new years eve celebration Hans! Speak again in 2024!!!🥳

[@harrysomal7166]

I've been watching your videos for a while now ....just wanted to say that i really found the information you provided since I've been watching you has been brilliant and through your videos it's kind of guided me through my fragrance experience....I've been collecting fragrances for quite a while now ...and have quite a collection. But its XERJOFF where you kinda guided me in . Carry on the good work . Kind regards Harry . ( UK 🇬🇧)

[@vivianagbegha2712]

Thanks so much for your videos, Marcelo. I discovered your channel while I was traveling alone on my world tour earlier this year. Your love of perfume, your artistry, and your technical expertise arrested my attention. It has inspired me to improve my own content creation. But more than that, what keeps me returning to your videos is your friendly and open personality. It so apparent. Thank you for sharing as you do. Happy new year. Wishing you unimaginable success.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

For some reason I read your comment first this morning Vivian and your closing line of "wishing you unimaginable success" created an electric surge⚡️ I almost felt it like a pronouncement of prophesy🤩 I appreciate that level of 'well wishing' THANK YOU VIVIAN!!!♥️ I'm sending it back to you too!! I too am wishing you unimaginable success Vivian and that you get to do all that you hope for in 2024. I'm also hoping that our paths can cross in person and it would be wonderful to meet you one day. Thank you again for all your support; it's been wonderful connecting with you via these comments and seeing all your travels and adventures via Instagram 😎

[@vivianagbegha2712]

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector 😀 We should speak what we mean or hope for. Words have power. Thanks for your well wishing. I launched a consultancy recently (quite risky), and I hope that it will take off very soon. I don’t want to work for others anymore. I agree. We must meet one day! I have never been down under! Perhaps that will be included in my next tour of countries. 😉

[@dasikakn]

Am I the only one who found Amouage Guidance to be weird? I loved the bottle and was totally hype for it after so many reviewers said it was sandalwoody, vanillic, spicy etc. When I tried it at store, the opening notes were so off putting that I could not hang around in the vicinity. It is true that it has great projection because I had to leave the area to breathe again. I am really envious of those who can perceive this as a positive smell, becuse my nose really struggled to see past the opening. I just could not even stick around for dry down.

[@angelcuev6762]

Torino 22 is my best discovery of 2023. That stuff is very nice. I do not understand how no one talks about it. But that's ok for the exclusivity factor.

[@jlehm]

Marcelo, what glasses are you wearing? I have a very similar older pair, but need to update this coming year. Thanks!

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Yessir! Out of the three (Pardon, Baraonda, and Sadonaso) I picked up, Sadonaso is IMMACULATE on my skin! I like all three but Sadonaso is, as you put it, *pure magic*. I've already put in an order for two more Nasomatto's and two Orto Parisi's. Say, do you know if any of Meo's releases play out on the more sensual and/or alluring side? Which one would you recommend?

Can you give me 2-3 Italian niche houses that are up and coming? And still good value in your opinion? Thanks!!

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Great to hear from you Anthony💫 I've found that I'm in love with a lot of the Italian perfumers, so this is a fun question! In relation to 'up and coming' this part I don't know, but in relation to unique Italian, then here is my suggestions: Meo Fusciuni: If you want something unique and still not mainstream, then any of Meo's creations are glorious. I would suggest you start with either Sogni, Luce, Little Song or Spirito....have a look at the episode that I created alongside Meo if you want to know more: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eISXg6iilq1oqsU Nasomatto & Orto Parisi: Alessandro Gaultieri is the master of bizarre and wonderfully strange but divine. Here is a playlist with 99% of his collection: kzbin.info/aero/PLl2get-JHWtc8nzTJFuLwhmp27jKu6rD0 Filippo Sorcinelli: This is a House that I need to explore further. I only have one of his perfumes (Opus 1144) but here is another wonderfully unique perfumer. You can check out his range here: filipposorcinelli.com/en/collections/profumi Good Luck!!!💫
