MORE THAN LEATHER - TERRIBLE TEDDY by PENHALIGON'S

[@Badr-2360]

Sampled this today and I fell in love with it. Full bottle worthy.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

This one never gets old😎 Congrats on testing and good to hear that it hit the mark for you @Badr-2360 Great to hear from you 👊🏽

[@kingdomrun]

I’ve ordered terrible teddy along with Halfetti. Can’t wait to receive the bottle! Thanks for your review man all the best!

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Boom Baby!! Good for you @kingdomrun...I know that the Penhaligon's website had a killer promo going on with a free bottle being thrown in....crazy man! You've got 2 amazing fragrances coming your way; so happy for you! Thanks for sharing @kingdomrun 👊🏼

[@kingdomrun]

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector You’re bang on! They were running a promo, two bottles for the price of one. I genuinely couldn’t resist the offer!

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Lucky! When I saw this, was super envious 😒….only for UK and Europe😩

[@noelohashirodriguez]

I also get loads of spices here (szechuan included). The moment I sprayed it on my skin, it brought me up magical memories of an old spicy-citric accord I felt on guy I was in love with. It was the 80s. He would pass by on the other side of street and I would feel his perfume from my aunt's bedroom's shutter window, even when they were closed. From the second floor, I would sense his perfume. I always opened the window the very moment I could sense it. And there he was. He always noticed when I used to do that. He would stop to look at me, smile and blink his left eye to me. My heart always beated so fast and warm, from the emotion to feel and see him respond to my admiration towards his beauty and good taste.

[@gevisu]

love how this is your 2 year old grandsons signature scent lol. really cool. I’ve bought the portraits collection samples set, and am testing my way through it. Teddy and William Penhaligon are my favourites so far, although I beleive from this collection the only one I might bring into my collection is Teddy. I appreciate some of the others, but I don’t love them.

[@gevisu]

or, I guess he’s 4 by now!

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Great choice on both Teddy and William; both are awesome and yes Teddy is a "The Boss"😎 glorious masculine fragrance. Great to hear from you Kjetil

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Actually he's 3 years old!!! Mind you, he's moved on to Hacivat by Nishane😂

[@khaledalnuaimi8336]

Bought the discovery set and currently discovering this line, this caught my interest. I saw you reviewed William too, looking forward hearing your review on that. Hope you're great my friend

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Great to hear from you Khaled and congrats on the getting the discovery set (smart choice homie👊🏽). This is the perfect way to see which fragrance resonates best with you. And yes, William is outstanding; wait till you smell this one 🥰 wonderfully masculine...you'll love it

[@adzadzy]

sounds very nice, been wanting to try this, will get a sample now, i like Halfeti from them, all the best

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Thanks @Adz Adzy for your comments and yes, Halfeti is an amazing fragrance (a very big fan of this one). If you like more spicy, incense/leather then Terrible Teddy is an amazing offering in this space. Thanks again for your support👊🏼

[@steliosc.4686]

This and The Tragedy of Lord George are two of my favourites from the house. Nice video.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Thanks for your comments and yes @Stelios C these are winners. I find that just about the whole 'Portraits' range is amazing. Very unique and diverse set of fragrances....I've recently purchased Inimitable William and I can't get enough of this fragrance❤️ Great to hear from you! Thanks for sharing

Keep loving it! ❤ I think the poll is closed now and I see in your future videos that you let it go, that's unfortunate but your videos stayed top notch! As long as you keep the personal stories about the fragrances in I'm happy haha 😄

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

In the end the “keep loving it” won the toss, but I started thinking how else can I do this, hence you’ve seen the slight change to the format. Plus I like to keep things fresh and always moving around. It makes it fun for me and you guys. But I’ll think on how to bring this back in a different way. Thanks for the vote Sem, always good to hear from you mate

[@yokk5369]

Keep loving it 😁🤩 Love to see more of your collection that you love 💯% 🤗💥

[@ismailsviryov4460]

Well done mate. I love this fragrance. It is absolutely brilliant 🤩. My favourite from the house is Sohan , but this one is just after it .

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Thank you @Ismail Sviryov👊🏼 Appreciate your feedback and support. And yes, Sohan is next level awesome....have you had a chance to try the new one The Inimitable William? Oh my goodness, what an awesome addition! (I'm wearing it right now 🤩 love this one too!). So should I "Keep Loving it" or "Rate It"...? Thanks again Ismail🙌🏽

[@ismailsviryov4460]

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector I appreciate that we have some sort of dialogue 👏👏👏. And yes I’ve tried William . Is kind of thing of mine to go at the weekend to covenant garden penhaligos store and try new fragrances. Although William isn’t my cup of tea. Prefer Endymion concentre ❤️ and mr. Sam. But Sohan is my baby. Keep loving it bruv ! Well done so far !

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Yes Ismail, I also enjoy the connection that I’m having with perfume lovers from around the world. It’s an awesome conversation. I’m super envious my brother that you have the ability to walk into the Covenant Garden store, just like that😫....it’s my dream to get back to London and to walk into the Covenant Garden store. I ran out to time last time I was there, but didn’t think anything of it, “I’ll go next year”....then COVID made a mess of all plans😞....anyway, one day, I’m sure. Thanks again Ismail, great to connect👊🏽

[@JT-rx1eo]

Well Marcello, I've finally gotten my nose on Terrible Teddy. I'm test wearing it now, and I, surprisingly, like it! Maybe love it. Here it is in a nutshell: Elements of Aramis by Aramis combined with elements of Creed Viking. There it is. I own that description no matter how wacky it sounds.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

I love the description James! Own it baby!! The truth is that fragrance is so personal; it's you and your olfactory memory at work....which is what I love. Happy that you're enjoying this fragrance. This is an easy go to for me; always in the mood to spray Terrible Teddy Good to hear from you James

[@Robert-h8s2q]

kept loving it

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Yes Sir🥳🫡

[@JT-rx1eo]

Rate it! Good review but ratings also are added value. The Penhaligon's I'm going after next is The Tragedy of Lord George. I'm really into barbershop fougeres and since Lord George has "shaving cream notes" in the mid, and booze, it's right up my alley.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Thanks @James Thomas for the feedback. So tell me more on how you would rate it? I like the idea of rating them, but feel that it gets tricky. So not sure if you know but everything in the 'Collectors Collection' I've purchased. I love it enough that I went out and spent money on it....so wouldn't reflect that I rate it high? Plus perfume is so subjective. I could rate it but that rating might not resonate with another person. For instance, and I'm glad that you've brought up Lord George. I know that this is a brilliant scent, I also know that this is Penhaligon's best seller in the range...but I'm not a fan. I've tested it on multiple times and I want to love, but it doesn't do anything on my skin. Plus the longevity for me isn't that great with this perfume.....so I haven't bought it. Hence it's not in my 'Collection' It's not a bad fragrance (everyone knows that's not the case)...but it's just not for me. So going back to my first point, if I've bought it, then I love it and that's my rating. Thoughts?

[@JT-rx1eo]

@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Thanks for the in depth reply and explanation. It's TRUE that fragrance appreciation is fundamentally subjective and highly variable. I run I to that constantly. Recently the old designer classic Halston Z14 was rated highly but to me its screechy synthetic Lemon Pledge. Same with Dua Fragrance's two new clones of my two favorite designer fragrances in history, Ralph Lauren Polo Green and Dior Eau Sauvage EDT. Dua's copies are awful despite reviews. A Rohrsach test. So maybe you could you could talk about the ratings for the featured fragrance on Fragrantica.com, the overall 1 to 5 rating, the longevity, the sillage, the masculine/feminine appropriateness, the price appropriateness, and then explain where and how your personal ratings would fit within that continuum. And you could highlight a few of the reader reviews at the bottom of the Fragrantica page - the extremes and the middling reviews and how yours fits into that continuum. That way we get "the wisdom of crowds" in getting not only your opinion, but of the community at large and how yours fits in to the broad community opinion of a fragrance, and so this helps give better perspective and negates the issue of high variability of fragrance appreciation. I don't think any other fragrance reviewers does that. It would be a service to the viewer in helping choose what to buy. Just an idea.

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

@@JT-rx1eo My brother you are awesome! I love the level of input on this. Thank you for taking the time to share this. Let me consider all points and see what I can come up with. Thank you James, do appreciate your feedback and insight👊🏽

[@stevenweix4330]

RATE IT!! I'm picky and want at least some comparison to similar fragrances you like LESS, or even more.... I mean... The notes you listed for Terrible Teddy are 90% the same as Dior Sauvage, which really should be used as fuel for controlled fires...so yeah... Rate please haha

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Noted! Thanks for jumping into this conversation and throwing your hat into the ring🙌🏼 And yes, I hear you. You’d like further insight into the fragrances and how they compare against others….I’ll put my ‘thinking cap’ on🧐

[@cuchanu]

I love the fragrance, but I either go nose blind to it or it just doesn't perform very well. Also that price is hard to swallow

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

Yep, all of the Portraits are not cheap but they look so super cool all lined up😎 And yes, I have a feeling that you might be going nose blind as this one lasts forever on me and the boys in my family when they use it....it's a beast⚡️ Great to hear from you @cuchanu

[@suuor3459]

i came back to this video because my bottle seems to have terrible performance, can’t pick it up unless my nose is within 2 inches of where i sprayed, and can’t pick it up at all after like 30, idk if my bottle has a problem or something, have u heard of something similar happening to other people or is it just me?

[@TheNicheFragranceCollector]

This can be frustrating when a perfume seems to have lost it's potency. As a recommendation (and this is what I do), after spraying 3-4 times and after you've lost sense of the fragrance, ask people around you if they can smell the perfume on you. In a lot of cases, the fragrance is still there, it's just that I've gone nose blind to it. Hopefully this is the problem that you're encountering. If it is, then my recommendation is to not spray as often. Mix it up with other perfumes that way you take your nose by surprise. Hope that helps @sUUor, great to hear from you
