    F*ck the crazy equipment and editing! Even if you could do it I’d still prefer this style! This is what makes you Joy Amin. Feels like talking to a friend, face to face, if we want fancy editing we can find 100 reviewers, but this simplicity is what made you this Legend in the game! Love from London my brother!

    Respect from Pakistan
    Simplicity is the most difficult proposition to be presented by any viewer. At least, before going to purchase any cologne, I do watch your views on the product.
    Those are sincerest reviews that we receive online.
    Keep going brother

    Honestly Joy, I love the videos. I think the “prettiness and high production” is overrated in fragrance. Mostly we are trying to describe a smell through video which is no easy task. A fancy camera does not change the description at all. Keep it up brother, love your work.

    Your setup is fine, never really had a problem with it myself.
    As far as fragrance addiction goes, I know it well. When you're really passionate about something like this, it really can end up being like an addiction because you can get caught up in always trying something new instead of just enjoying what you already have. There are so many fragrances that I see every day and I want to try them all, and when I see them I can feel them tapping into my craving for more fragrances. I start to think about whether that fragrance will be discontinued, whether it will go up in price, and then I come back down to earth and remind myself that I have so many fragrances already, and that I don't need it yet.

  • @LithiumBG
    @LithiumBG 2 года назад +9

    This was really timely for me, as I just got from 1 fragrance to like 70 in an year and a half. Also, about the video production - I like it just fine the way it is, I feel you more closely related, than if you do some of the Jeremy's spins and whatnot. Thank you and keep up the good work!

    I am an old heavy metal fan (I am 60 years old), I love my music (mainly from the end of the 60s to the middle of the 70s, and from 1979 to 1985 with the N.W.O.B.H.M.O............ I am a metalhead from the heart, and I was buying, and buying CDs from bands that do not exist now, very rare and collectible live gigs on CD or my loved "audio tape cassettes" (I still use them, play them and love them)............ but I realized I just can play one CD or Cassette at the time and having so many CDs and music, often I forget what I have or those bands that I really like that I can't even remember when I bought the CD ........... the same with fragrances that I started just with a couple of aftershaves (as I shave every day) I love QUORUM and ARAMIS .......... but then I found myself buying colognes, just to try them, to smell nice ............ and I found now I got 17 fragrances (aftershaves and colognes).......... and as I did with my CDs I did with the fragrances .................I stopped and I won't buy more, I will just enjoy what I have and that's it.

    Your channel popped up in my feed after i watched some TLTG reviews. I only started watching reviews to make a purchase for a gift but i do have a appreciation for nice fragrances. You now make up 90% of my watchlist in your niche, keep up the great work. Ive heard of the other channels but i would never watch them, most of the channels i watch are sub 80-90k so that counts for nothing.

At the same time, you are human and have to be a little self with your time and make sure Joy is healthy and okay. You don't need the new gadgets and the the best 🎙️ mic/lighting. We reviewers tune in because we all have became fans and love listening to you toward each fragrance and personal life stories. Keep up the good work buddy 👍.

    I appreciate your honesty regarding improving your production quality. It’s fine. Cell phone, few lights, handheld microphone and nothing but fragrances.
    I would love more fragrances in my collection. I have gone into debt (not credit card debt but using some of my bank savings) to build a small collection of 40-50 large colognes, 24 travel-sized decants, and 30 samples. It doesn’t seem enough. I focused on clones and cheapies, and now I regret it! I wish I focused on quality. I wish I had a Wish list with a priority and corresponding buying schedule.
    Thanks, Amin.

    Congrats for your job. You are reviewing all fragrances.. because you love them
    most of the reviewers only do list of 10 this, 10 that, bug compliments list.. lists lists lists because that is what get more views i think..
    I even listened once that if they give a review of a fragrance that people dont care, youtube will not show the channel anymore or something like that..
    so appreciate you for doing it for love
    people who really like perfumes dont want to only see list of better perfumes.. that is for who does not know much..

  • @Tschouki

    25 years ago I was enthusiastic about Hi-Fi. I bought a Hi-Fi system for 6, 500$. I remember clearly the owner of the Hi-Fi store telling me - "you are a technophile, not an audiophile. An audiophile spends that money on CDs, not on a system". This remark registered. Today I am enthusiastic about scents. I have less than 20 FBs, but I have dozens of samples. If it's scents you are crazy about, a sample (or small decant) is enough. People that buy many FBs are not perfume lovers, but rather are addicted to buying stuff, to packaging, to brand names.
    If all you care about is the juice, a sample is good enough.
    A bottle worthy scent is only a scent you know for sure you would wear/layer frequently.
    BTW, since I layer all the time, 15 FBs can create hundreds of scents !!! for example, today I've layered 3 perfumes in a certain way, and I've created a very unique and wonderful scent (my own scent/creation).
