    I haven’t watched all the videos in this series, but I have thoroughly enjoyed the 2 or 3 I’ve seen.
    First, I just feel good whenever I wear Brass And Soul. I don’t think that I carry myself any differently when I wear it versus other fragrances, but I do get noticed every time I do wear it. It’s great and I appreciate what you did.
    Next, I’ve appreciated how you have described the vibe of the different scents. I recently purchased a sample of City Rhythm’s Manhattan. (Not meaning to name drop so much as to provide context.) So I tried it on my wrist and thought “oh, I have an Initio that smells just like this.” Then I sprayed the Initio…and realized that they don’t smell “alike,” rather, they gave the same impression. And suddenly these “overhyped” videos make perfect sense.

    This is a thought provoking series. The alternatives that you provide are appreciated. I am convinced that I will love Roja's Oligarch and Burlington 1891? (whatever the number), based on the reviews, but I admittedly love Elysium for all of the reasons given for its popularity. Re Hermes: Un Jardin sur la Nil - unique and wonderful - is still on my to-do list, along with at least 4 others from that house. These days, that house does not get the attention it deserves (except for Terre d'Hermes). Parfums de Marley - that's the one that warrants alternatives.

    I need another pick from Scentual Obsessions. Cognac Delight batch 2 is a very nice interpretation. Also strange and amazing is that it left the party at the 30 minute mark, then came back an hour later ( like I was talking about it’s mother). Wife confirmed the disappearing act, then asked if I reapplied a couple hours later. I told her it came back stronger! She asked how that happened and I could not answer.

    Elysium is nice but only lasts about an hour on me (I've even asked people to try to detect it on me to verify that) so it's not worth even half the money to me. I agree with you on Creed in general - prices went up - bottle size and longevity went way down. Pretty ridiculous and they've lost me as a customer. Wet Stone reminds me of TF Oud Mineral quite a bit, it has a very similar salty/ozonic vibe, I like it 👍 Keep the videos coming, Justin. I like this series/topic 🤟

    I'll bet if Elysium and Percival could talk they'd say
    "Really Justin?! How you gonna deem us Overhyped when You're one of the reviewers that hyped us up?!" Lol
    Look my friend, I get it. You're giving us alternatives. Maybe you should name your videos that.
    (Definitely not telling you what to do though) I'll just say this on a serious note. If you're spending about a quarter of your video explaining the reasoning for your title, it's probably not the best idea. It seems a little clickbait-ish anyway. It got me to click on it. But hey, I am not a content creator. Just one of your viewers in his feelings. 😄
    I'll continue to support this channel regardless. The content that you've given us is waaay more substantial and beneficial to us than a series of videos titled OVERHYPED!

      Haha Tommy…you already know that nothing in this life is constant. We as humans are dynamic. There are countless fragrances I’ve hyped in the past that have gone to the wayside, simply because my tastes and philosophies have evolved! The fact that I still mention fragrances like Elysium and Percival is a testament to their greatness-other previously-hyped fragrances get no mention at all!
      And I have to disagree with you-I believe that my concept and presentation behind this series is sound…I put a lot of thought into it, and I’ve tried to refine it with each installment. And for the record, I only spent about 90 seconds of this 13 minute video discussing the premise (the first roughly 30 seconds are my musical intro)! 😉
      Is the term overhyped “clickbait-y”? Without a doubt. But drama is unfortunately the best way to get people’s attention online these days. Otherwise my hours of work to produce videos like this goes to waste!
      Thanks for your support bro.

      if your 90 seconds also included your reiteration at the 7:33 minute mark, I digress. Lol
      Nevertheless, what YOU view to be sound, I'm ok with. Your channel alone is sounds enough for me and one that I'm proud of.
      An example of where I'm coming from, and even though I have a bottle, I myself am not a Creed Aventus wearier. I just don't do popularity well. But I will never diss it (not saying that you are dissing) because of the respect that I have for what it has done to spark more interest in the niche community. Now, the quality of the recent batches or lack there of, is a whole nother story.
      But then again, that's me. I understand that I may be the only one that feels that way and I'm cool with it.
      But no harm meant.

    I need another pick from Scentual Obsessions. Cognac Delight batch 2 is a very nice interpretation. Also strange and amazing is that it left the party at the 30 minute mark, then came back an hour later ( like I was talking about it’s mother). Wife confirmed the disappearing act, then asked if I reapplied a couple hours later. I told her it came back stronger! She asked how that happened and I could not answer.
