WHY Is Everyone Buying These 10 Fragrances So Often?

[@billybattle]

Amazon is the most accessible marketplace on the internet. I’d assume most people(ironically) that purchase from Amazon would believe that the official sites to purchase fragrances are the overpriced scammers, and Amazon is a name that can trust with affordable prices and you can easily return items. They’re paying for convenience and reliability.

[@moneyparhar]

U can't return perfumes or any flammable iteams

[@osmathgreenle8986]

The very same reason APPLE is so successful... Simplicity and convenience... Time is money, satisfaction is key...🧐

[@utahsimple7779]

I am already an Amazon Prime subscriber. Unless I am buying, in some case cases, five bottles, the prices on Amazon are often cheaper because I am not adding shipping costs. This addition thing isn't all that tricky.

[@shababalmustaqbal]

Cheap quick gifts! Congratulations on your graduation cousin! Here is a fragrance! Send to their address even if you want! 😂

[@firstactionhero]

I received a fake Eros Flame from an Amazon order. A lot of the sellers on Amazon are not Amazon and they make it really difficult to get a return or refund

[@deltaforsing]

Your new studio is amazing, especially after adding more front light.

[@Geaux4todd]

I find that free shipping through amazon comes out cheaper than the discounters offer with shipping. Never had a problem with fakes.

[@shmoopiebear]

Belcam is an old budget fragrance company hailing from New York. I've tried G and it's not bad. Very linear scent and the initial spritz does have a burst of alcohol. Dry down is ok. Their ingredients are very uncomplicated and clean. Nothing harmful and company has a great over 50 year reputation. Just expect average performance. Definitely for budget minded people.

[@despair50cal45]

Belcam is super underrated Ash!

[@michaelbullock8011]

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

[@StudioTrainor]

Hey Versace The Dreamer is super underrated. One of my favorites.

[@sevenpaulperalta929]

I like the new studio and higher energy presentation to your content, very cool 😎

[@khoile1739]

Imma be honest, that G’eau is not bad at all. Really close for an 8 dollar fragrance. Quality is actually decent (a little more synthetic, but that’s expected). Lasts 3-5 hours, so basically the same amount as the original nowadays. Great value for what you get I’d say

[@apureterror]

I agree. Primitive Man smells great too.

[@Tanner0]

Amazon sometimes still has discontinued fragrances. I picked up Prada L’Homme Intense and Acqua Di Gio Profumo recently. Just need to shop carefully to avoid fakes.

[@Commontator69420]

I will say Eros edt is strong.. I’m still new to the scent game, and didn’t know I should go light, and my shirt came out of the laundry clean still smelling like it. Awesome fragrance, so I wasn’t to mad

[@toneriggz]

A lot of these are readily available at Burlington and Marshall’s. That’s probably why. I’ve owned both Nauticas, Versace, Drakkar and Gio myself.

[@ritik9799]

Belcam G is a lot better then perry ellis red . Belcam shades of blue gets tons of compliments believe it or not even more then my expensive colognes honestly kind of upsetting in a way .

[@MichaelCarle]

Of course at 8 dollars it isn't the strongest. Double up on sprays. It will still smell on my clothes the next day. Skin for about 8-9 hours if it's not too hot.

#8 G is way closer than it should be. You can buy it at any large department store like Wal-Mart or Meijer...exactly like ADG? No. But out of my 300 plus fragrances (when I was a younger man) it has pulled a lot of compliments....

[@johnjenkins777]

I have G Cologne and it does it last 4 hours on my skin.

[@_DanielPrieto]

I would keep Light Blue, Nautica Voyage and Eau Fraiche. All three are fresh and citrusy fragrances, for summer and hot weather.

[@SNRejected]

I've purchased a number of fragrances on Amazon and gotten great deals. A couple of tips... 1. Watch prices regularly. Things that never go on sale elsewhere will occasionally get heavily discounted, even more if you subscribe and save. 2. Avoid third-party sellers. Amazon is full of them and they often sell under Prime. Most people claiming they got fakes from Amazon almost certainly instead got their fake from a third-party. 3. Amazon seems to try and compete with third-party prices, so even if the best price is third-party and sketchy, double check the sold and shipped by Amazon prices, they will often be just a few bucks more. Happy Hunting!

[@mitkru16]

It's called "G eau" because it's a clone of Acqua di "Giò"

[@Mutalaat]

Kudos to new setup my bro

[@jaredfranco8014]

I have all 3 of the Geau colognes and for 10 bucks it’s not bad. They’re obviously pretty weak but I use them for work and the gym.

[@johnstamps4829]

Belcam is a solid budget fragrance company, I’ve had their version of Polo blue EDT, ADG, ADG perfumo, polo red EDT, polo EDT, David off coolwater, and Drakkar noir. All are solid clones of them and I’ve had around 4-5 hours of performance. Can’t really complain for $6-8 bucks for each bottle

[@Taztiger7272]

🤫 that's the Walmart Special 🐺

[@kingyeti6336]

The polo red clone is a 1/1 copy! Hands down the best clone of any fragrance imo!

[@SAMX2007]

The first couple of times i smelled Voyage it gave me this nausea feeling, no idea why and put it aside for like 2 months. Decided to give it another try and the smell was way better and quite a bit different, not like the first sprays. Bottle is almost empty now, its a solid summer pick.

[@carlgranados7106]

The reason I appreciate perfume influencers like you is that you do the research most of us won't invest the time and money checking out brands and flankers that most of us wouldn't even know exist. While influencers can't find what each of us loves they make it way easier and way cheaper. A great example is there Versace you mentioned and how the average guy, like me once upon a time, would just purchased it based on the name and then been disappointed and then given up on finding find perfumes I love to wear.

[@adamparris87]

I’ve ordered 2 of my frags from Amazon…had zero quality issues and both were great!

[@Chris6815]

Versace Man Eau Fraiche is by far my most complimented fragrance in my collection. I will definitely reorder when I run out. Probably cheaper from discounters though.

[@St.Calamity]

You'd be right. Just about $50.

[@brianconner1266]

Ash, I love all the video game references. Cracks me up. Beware of those Amazon supermutants.

[@kmw5100]

Hey actually, Belcam who makes G’eau is doing decent clones for cheap. I actually have a few bottles of G’eau black which is their take on Profumo. I actually quite like it when I run out of my Profumo.

[@antonioviana7645]

G the black one smells' JUST LIKE PROFUMO! and lasts ,, no shame,, 8 bucks to gym wear,, i always get compliments ,, yup no shame

[@mikeflackii1939]

Belcam Geau Blue by Belcam is by far the best cheapie money can buy....Aqcua Di Gio Profondo for $8 is 🔥!!!!!!!!

[@J-Savage]

Geau actually isn't bad I get decent performance with the profumo and profondo clone blue and black about 4-6 hours

[@josezerpa8177]

Can't go wrong with Belcam for CAD $20 vs the OG ADG for $100 in discounters. It might not be as refined but it lasts ages on skin and it pulls lots of compliments. For a small collector like myself this G makes a lot of sense.Great video Ash!

[@kingyeti6336]

It’s a compliment magnet for sure

[@fatshady5714]

If you DO grab some of those Belcam frags, also MAKE SURE you get CM which is a FANTASTIC YSL Y EDT clone as well as Blue Classic match which is ANOTHER great clone of Polo Deep Blue.

[@Mike34006]

What's the longevity on deep polo blue?

[@bigzizzo]

From what I hear those Belcam fragrances are pretty solid especially for the price.

[@2182sjc]

Belcam (makes G) clones aren't bad at all. Give them a chance.

[@sherellefreeman7993]

I was lucky enough to snag a bottle each of Armani Code Absolu and Profumo on Amazon before they disappeared from everywhere. I was a bit scared if I’m being honest. I knew the potential of them being fakes were high but I took the risk and very fortunately it paid off. They’re the only fragrances is my 45 bottle collection that I got from Amazon and don’t see myself taking the risk again. However, I have to admit that it came through without fault so I can’t knock on Amazon or those who shop fragrances on there too bad. Amazon came through clutch when I couldn’t find those sought out frags at any discounter and was even more weary of navigating eBay for them.

[@johnjenkins777]

G also made a version of Profundo

[@kingyeti6336]

That G smells a lot like ADG. It last 5 hours on skin. It has been mistaken for ADG by very adamant women who absolutely know it’s ADG and think I’m lying when I say it’s not! Best $8 you will ever spend on a fragrance actually

[@vaughn257]

I saw that you mentioned carcinogens in cologne you should do a educational video on colognes and the potential dangers that you could face etc. It's pretty obvious from the statement that you made you believe that there could be some potential risk involved.

I guess I've never thought of buying fragrances off Amazon. I just assumed they would be fakes. That being said, I am in my 40's, and a handful of these are what I wore in high school in the 90's. Maybe some people buy based on nostalgia?

[@adamtrons]

I've bought dozens of fragrances from Amazon and only one seemed fake - Polo Sport. However, I did receive a few fragrances that were expired or old stock. People will leave comments that they are fake or watered down when in fact I believe they were real but not kept in a temperature controlled environment. But overall, I've had more positive than negative purchases there. Also, Amazon has been nice about refunding the full price of the bad ones, without needing to return the bottle.

[@josephzerbe2945]

I have to admit I bought that small bottle of Versace thinking it was a fabulous deal and little did I know. Anyways, I ended up buying the larger 1.75 shortly after so it was nice to have something small to sample before investing in a large bottle. And I did buy a bottle of the club de Nuit and only for it's clone properties. Iv had compliments on both the club and the Versace, but you may b surprised, I have had more compliments on that G eau fragrance then the rest of your fragrances in this video. I also own that Perry Ellis but do not get near as many compliments as I do when I wear the G. I've been told it smells a lot better and trails a lot better then the Perry Ellis and the AQua d geau.

[@wgozoria7464]

I would recommend BLUE TOUCH by FRANCK OLIVIER as a Aqua Di Gio alternative any day over Perry Ellis Red

@squid2849 where do I say they can't buy and enjoy this fragrance? I am giving my opinion, to wich I am entitled to do. Just like you. I dont care that it is cheap. I have a problem with the scent profile. To my nose and on my skin, it's just nothing special, or even decent. I could use it as an air freshener but I rather have something better smelling to use for such things. Cheap doesn't mean bad, but in this case for me this fragrance just does not cut it and I don't understand the hype for it. And congratulations on owning 200 fragrances friend. Quite the feat!

I'll take Belcam's Classic Match (Polo) over Polo Green EDT any day. Been wearing that one since 1988 or so, when it was $3 in drugstores. Others, like CM M, (clone of Y) are just a little too off the mark for me. What I don't get is why people pay the full retail price for stuff like Joop! Homme, Nautica Voyage and Jovan Musk at WalMart.

Buying online has nothing to do with the experience buying in a real perfumery.. I talk to a experienced advicer, test some scents, spray two of them on my arms.. Walk away for a coffee, smell how the scent develops.. walk back to the perfumery, buy eventually… and I‘m really satisfied.. a new scent I like, I buy it for me, not to compliment others… would never buy a scent because it’s on a Amazon-list.. A new frag is like a new friend who‘ll stay with me for years.. So the only criteria MUST be, how it suits to ME! I‘m not a collector, but I love the scents by themselves, and I love to smell nice!!
