Nice! That one is pretty much identical to the old Ferrari fragrance from back in the day. So random lol. Smells amazing but I’d say too sweet for my tastes these days. Lasts forever though.
Mate, I'm nearing a thousand bottles, but i've been at this for over 3 decades now. Instead of fragrances for life, i'd suggest fragrances for 'phases' or 'stages' of your life. Like the scent for that period of your life. As you change, so should your scent. That's my take anyway. Cheers from the land down under
You're the first "influencer" who introduced and influenced me into buying perfumes. I swear to God. If I remember correctly, it was the Prada L'Homme and Armani Stronger with You. Your taste is really good. Thanks so much! :)
I've been trying to avoid collecting for the reasons that you've mentioned. I tend to like anything incensey without going too warm amber. A cheap incense I use is morningstar green tea, very tranquil, calming and fresh but still a little austere. Glad you're doing well, love your energy and message at the end.
Will do! Currently wearing misc CDG scents. I do like with the TF signature vibe though, I like black lacquer a lot, have yet to smell ebene fume though. If you like iso e super like in molecule 01 and vetiver check out the classic cheapie Lalique Encre Noire.
My Top 5 I can’t live without: 1. Tom Ford Tuscan Leather 2. Guerlain Lhomme Ideal 3. Issey Miyake leu dissey 4. Marc Gebauer Air Tiger 5. Wally Parfums Patchouli Revolution All connected with such good memories
I loved your analogies and fragrance advice. Opposite of most of generic crap coming from fragrance RUclipsrs telling you to buy every designer fragrance on the market. Quality over quantity, always.
Aesops Karst fragrance was love at first sniff for me i have marrakech intense which i went back and forth with that and karst at the time. i think this is a sign for me to stop dragging my feet on buying karst i love that fragrance. one of the most perfect summer fragrances ive ever got my nose on. great selection of fragrances i appreciate how unique it is. i hate the copy and paste collections lol. you got a sub out of me dude 🥂
Recently discovered your page and I love everything about your content! Thanks for sharing about your personal journey as well, I identify a lot as im sure a lot of people do. also, as a perfume lover, i would never have thought id ever be absorbed like i am by a fragrances review haha! i absolutely adore a musky and peppery scent for myself, and so I've been obsessed with Tuscan Leather by TF for the last couple of years. Ive always been a TF lover, but not every scent is for me (dont like the too girly-sweety-flowery scents). Used to wear Black Orchid for a looooong time. and also oud oil bought in Morocco. But those are definitely a/w perfumes. I usually go with something lighter in the summer. My go tos are: Infusion d'Iris by Prada, Jardin en Méditerranée by Hermès, and I recently discovered Hinoki & Cedarwood by Jo Malone and I think it will definitely be my next summer perfume. Thanks for everything, looking forward for the next videos! xx
My list of 7 Fragrances I can't live without: 1. Azzaro The Most Wanted edp - the best night out, clubbing fragrance, MASSIVE compliment getter and intoxicatingly gorgeous 2. Valentino Uomo Intense - sophisticated iris, vanilla, leather scent with a more unique scent profile, you won't be smelling this on a lot of people and it got me positive attention 3. Dior Homme Sport - elegant fresh scent, extremely versatile, great performance and that characteristic Dior touch that elevates it over other citrus fragrances 4. JPG Le Male pride edition - insanely addictive citrus/white floral unisex scent that is intoxicating. I bought the 125 ml bottle AND a backup of it, it's the only backup bottle I ever bought, it's just that good 5. Tom Ford Eau d'Ombre Leather - in my opinion the best in the OL line, because I'm kind of tired of smelling the original everywhere and this one is the most versatile and mass appealing of all 3. Not a massive SILLAGE but longevity is eternal, it's still on my clothes after a month 6. Brioni edp Intense - a designer bordering niche with a one of THE BEST openings I have ever smelled. Versatile, elegant, classy and rich, this has to be in my collection 7. Armani Code edt/parfum - this is and will continue to be an all time classic, you absolutely nailed it in your description, it's soooo versatile but lends itself better to more formal attire. I don't think a single person can smell Code and not like it
I don’t get too carried away anymore, gave away over 60 fragrances. Kept 10, I BDC parfum, oud wood, DG the one intense, Y le parfum, Givenchy gentlemen society and boisee , Pdm Herod, and allure eau extreme. Those are the one I keep in rotation now.
Doing loads of sampling at the mo to curate my small collection of 7-8 fragrances, certs so far: Cologne Indelebile, Gentle Fluidity Silver, Ani X, Oud Cadenza, Orchid Leather. Rest to be decided! And the five certs may also change with more testing 😂
Hi Charles, Really enjoy watching your relaxed and aesthetic videos. Could you tell me what kind of carpet you have in your loft? It looks really good! All the best from Germany❤
if you like to try an alternative to Molecule 01, try Vetiver d'Haiti au Thé Vert by Chopard. It smells like M01 but with a little added green tea and musk note. Still very subtle. Could be right up your alley
I appreciate this though I was wanting you to talk about your colognes. This is nice to see what you like and wear. I did find the perfume, the tom ford one.. ;)
Thank you for this video. My top fragrances I can’t live without would be: Pikovaya Dama Xerjoff Vanille des Afriques Ormonde Jayne Casa Blanca House of Bo Haltane PDM Espíritu House of Bo Parisian Musk mattiere Premiere Another 13 Le Labo
Y Le Parfum, Bleu de Chanel EDP, TF Noir Extreme, and Jazz club It didn’t make my list above but Armani Code hooked me in high school. Similar story to yours
I recently bought Rien Intense Incense from Etat Libre d’Orange and I have to tell you that its my favorite fragrance right now, it brings back memories from my childhood church as it smells as a dark armoatic church.I love the aromatic incense and leather in this fragrance, would recommend!
Well since you like Venetian Bergamot you should buy Halston Z-14. 95% the same fragrance. VB is a great copy of Z-14 but with slightly better materials. I have both and wear both.
I pretty much buy anything from Commodity Fragrance. Been intrested in their Leather fragrance, so when I do a youtube search, one of your shorts pops up. You talk about the Commodity candle and as soon as you're about to talk about Commodity Leather, it cuts off. lol There's hardly any reviews on it in English. This was a good video as always. Made my Sunday. ✌😎
Oh okay! My thoughts are I don’t like commodity. I’ve tried them all and they’re mostly dupes or takes on more popular fragrances but I will say leather is one of the better ones. I think I still have it. I’d be happy to send it to you if I have it! Just email me at charles@teamkozen.com
@@itscharlesmackenziethat's really cool of you to offer that 🍻 I give fragrances I don't wear to my co-workers. I like that someone else gets to enjoy it. I hope the first commenter takes you up on that.
@@itscharlesmackenzie I'll most definitely take it if you still got it. Didn't know they were dupes, but run for $150 on their website and are currently sold out until March for the Leather frag.
You get anosmic to iso e super, some people will smell it on you, others wont. The most prominent scent from it is pencil shavings of all things lol. I can personally detect molecule 01 but not 02 which is ambroxan, and I get the same results as you wearing molecule 02, which is meant smell oceanic and aquatic salty fresh
Here is my Fragrantica review of Celine Nightclubbing, working from a sample from their Discovery set: I'm test wearing Nightclubbing from a Discovery set decant, but I did spray 10+ times on skin and clothes. It's simply far too weak a performer. I'm not one of those young Beastmoder's who gripe if a scent isn't nuclear, and I cherish lots of subdued skin scents in my collection, but this is gripe-worthy. Anyway, scent profile wise, this does not smell like Cabochard by Gres, a fragrance I have. Although, frankly, Cabochard does a better job of creating a Nightclubbing vibe, as long as its a 1959 club. Nightclubbing is a tobacco-oriented scent, where the tobacco accord is evidently formed by a combination of the Powdery, Green, Earthy, Mossy, Woody, and Balsamic accords. Galbanum no doubt plays an important role in this tobacco accord. It's rather pleasant and very wearable, despite the tobacco being a bit on the raw, raunchy side. The brand hilights nicotine, and reviewers often characterized it as a cigarette/cigarette smoke or ashtray sort of smell, but I don't agree. To me, it's more of a pre-smoked tobacco smell, albeit a slightly "raunchy" variety. Its not acrid or even smoky. It's a pleasant, dusty tobacco. Not challenging at all. There are two fragrances I would use as a comparative reference: Jazz Club from Maison Martin Margiela's Replica line, and Jasmin et Cigarette by Etat Libre d'Orange. Very different fragrances, but ones that go for a similar vibe. Jazz Club has a tobacco with a similar, but stronger, raunchy facet. Jasmin et Cigarette imparts a rather realistically stale cigarette tobacco, as if you are smelling an unsmoked cigarette directly, and is the only one of the three thats a bit challenging. I think both Jazz Club and Jasmin et Cigarette are better artistic creations, and are certainly stronger performers that Nightclubbing. This is an awfully quiet nightclub.
Nope. I have been so dissatisfied with blind buys my whole life. I think you need to smell everything first. Because yes, it’s all good smelling in theory, but it’s also subjective. And like, most times you’re going to expect so much initially and be pissed at the influencer who convinced you to buy it because you expect instant satisfaction but with some frags you just need an experienced nose to appreciate it. Almost as if it’s an art piece and less of something that you want to wear. So if you’re looking for a summer fragrance blind buy I think keep it under $100 and go with nautica voyage, azaro chrome, or aqua di gio. Less “art” here but more easy to wear, practical, mass pleasing energy. I’ve just been disappointed so many times personally I can’t recommend a blind buy unless you’re a collector or a curious person willing to take a risk.
LOVE your channel buddy you are doing some great things keep it up you are very inspiring i have been strugging with back health isssues financial jobs etc can you please do a video on best basics socks t shirts underwear pants jackets accessories etc??? thanks cheers
@@itscharlesmackenzie thanks for replying so quickly!!! can you do BOTH affordable and high end basics socks underwear t shirts pants jackets accessories etc thanks cheers
@@itscharlesmackenzie You are awesome ok great news yes ALL basics t shirts pants socks underwear jackets accessories etc! looking forward to it thanks
It’s not event remotely similar tbh. Idk who’s saying that but imo they’re out to lunch. JPG is great and if you want a boujee version try Darley from PDM
Please make a video for starter fragrances for gay men? It sounds like the choices in this video drive you crazy, but the prices are also crazy. What fragrances awaken your passions at the normal 60 USD range? Thank you friend from the north!
Hey, not sure I can make that video appropriately as a straight man. But the ones in this video are truly the ones that drive me crazy. In the 60usd range I haven't smelled anything that has floored me beyond belief but I would check out Salvatore Ferragamo f black, or also Salvatore Ferragamo Uomo. The first one is more like La nuit de L'homme if it was a classic mens barbershop fragrance with a bit of peppery notes. The second is sweet chocolate and coffee
@@itscharlesmackenzie Thanks! I just ordered the Salvatore Ferragamo f black. I've not heard of this one before, so I appreciate the help. My question was probably badly asked. I was just looking for a scent that men would fall for, regardless of their orientation. I'll let you know how this one fits! Gracias!
Thanks for the video. I havent tried some of these on this video and I'm curious to check them out. Also, great camerawork and production value for someone who seems to be just starting out (relatively). However, A bit of constructive criticism from a viewer, if you'll indulge me. 'Literally' just about seems to be America's new fav word to use everywhere and anywhere, among kids and teenagers and clearly some adults too. Your video title says "you'll literally die". You are saying that if you dont have any of these fragrances, it'll actually cause your death. Thats what 'Literally' means. Not figuratively, not metophorically....but 'literally'. Like if you didnt have water or food or air, your body would perish. Its hard to take someone seriously who actually wants to sound immature just to use a trendy word that everyone else likes to use, whether it makes sense or not. And this criticism is coming from someone from a third world country whose first language is not English. (Sorry, I'm in a mood today...lol)
The moment you have more fragrances (or samples in my case) than you actually use, reassess. Buy too much of anything to only realize that the money spent in several of your bottles could have bough the 300-400USD niche perfume you now want feels a little uncomfortable. Don't ask me how I know...
@@itscharlesmackenzieI believe the phrasing affected the interpretation, if you said "the price is a little steep but it's worth every penny." it would've landed better.
@ Honestly valid point. I'll take that criticism and adjust moving forward. I basically 1 take these videos and don't think to much about every word I say. As long as my message gets across I am happy.
No you won't die mate, get a grip on yourself. Fragrances are THINGS...your soul is much more vitally important. Get a right perspective. The whole of your fragrance collection could be wiped out in the blink of an eye.
Only 7? hmm let me see my collection 1. Black Phantom By Kilian 2. Tuxedo Yves Saint Laurent 3. Imagination Louis Vuitton 4. Oud Maracujá Maison Crivelli 5. Naxos Xerjoff 6. Ombre Nomade Louis Vuitton 7. Angels' Share By Kilian
Charles...no offence meant as you are direct so was I...your videos and design work on your apartment show good taste...those jeans are a let down...your outfit today is great
Trying to watch a video that's edited into 3-7 second cuts is beyond absurd. The fact that someone would think its ok to present this as content is baffling.
even though it's new, i've found myself reaching for PDM's Althair all the time, it's so beautiful, love the content!
Nice! That one is pretty much identical to the old Ferrari fragrance from back in the day. So random lol. Smells amazing but I’d say too sweet for my tastes these days. Lasts forever though.
2 things:
1. Love that you own Strawberry by Malin Goetz. So musky and amazing for spring.
2. Where did you buy the trousers/pants?
Started off watching your safety razor shaves on tik tok. So glad you’re making fragrance content here!
No way. Thank you so much for being here. Glad you love the fragrance stuff

@@itscharlesmackenzie Excellent idea!
Dior Homme Parfum, YSL Lhomme Ultime, Dior Homme Eau. Issey Miyake Pulse of the Night. As soon as I fall in love, they're discontinued.
agree with you - YSL Lhomme is really good!
Put the names on the screen! You can watch the whole video and only hear a couple of the names.

Tuscan leather smells like industrial engine oil IMO.
Tuscan Leather is one of my favourites. It's not for everyone but I enjoy it from first spray to drydown.
Tuscan Leather is a classic. I really like Oud Wood as well. Those were the first two samples I got from TF.
I loved your analogies and fragrance advice. Opposite of most of generic crap coming from fragrance RUclipsrs telling you to buy every designer fragrance on the market. Quality over quantity, always.
Bergamot is my all time favorite scent so I NEEDS to try that Venetian Bergamot by TF ✴︎ Great video as always ! & Happy 3 Year Anniversary ♡
I don’t think you smell any bergamot in this fragrance though you may be dissatisfied
@ ooh okay. Thanks for the warning!

Do you think the Molton Brown is blind buy worthy? Found a sealed bottle EDP on Ebay for $90 available for bid.
Nope. I have been so dissatisfied with blind buys my whole life. I think you need to smell everything first. Because yes, it’s all good smelling in theory, but it’s also subjective.

(Sorry, I'm in a mood today...lol)
The moment you have more fragrances (or samples in my case) than you actually use, reassess. Buy too much of anything to only realize that the money spent in several of your bottles could have bough the 300-400USD niche perfume you now want feels a little uncomfortable. Don't ask me how I know...

bro 2:00 are they overpriced or worth every penny it cant be both
It can be both lol. It’s like any luxury item. It’s all overpriced but we justify it because of their beauty, rarity, design etc.
@@itscharlesmackenzieI believe the phrasing affected the interpretation, if you said "the price is a little steep but it's worth every penny." it would've landed better.
@ Honestly valid point. I'll take that criticism and adjust moving forward. I basically 1 take these videos and don't think to much about every word I say. As long as my message gets across I am happy.
Gtfah with them hipster fragrances. 😂 jk I’m always in the look out for unpopular scents.
LOL, honestly these are all popular fragrances and have been around for a long time. You gotta expand your horizons there's tons out there.
Wanna be like you lol thank you for giving me ideas
No you won't die mate, get a grip on yourself. Fragrances are THINGS...your soul is much more vitally important. Get a right perspective. The whole of your fragrance collection could be wiped out in the blink of an eye.
Only 7? hmm let me see my collection
1. Black Phantom By Kilian
2. Tuxedo Yves Saint Laurent
3. Imagination Louis Vuitton
4. Oud Maracujá Maison Crivelli
5. Naxos Xerjoff
6. Ombre Nomade Louis Vuitton

Did this guy just promote incense that cost $50 a pack???
I think I passed ooot.
It’s good man. It’s stupid but it’s good
@ 🤔 you must have money to burn bro 😂😂.
That’s crazy expensive
Charles...no offence meant as you are direct so was I...your videos and design work on your apartment show good taste...those jeans are a let down...your outfit today is great
seems rather gay
Trying to watch a video that's edited into 3-7 second cuts is beyond absurd. The fact that someone would think its ok to present this as content is baffling.
14k views where are yours
So glad you are not wearing those awful jeans
What a weird thing to say.
What’s the cup of coffee ?
