    • @DannyBellTheAuthor
      @DannyBellTheAuthor 6 месяцев назад

      @travisn346 I've been collecting longer than I've been watching folks on RUclips, and for me it's a big combination of things. Definitely not an obsession as I never let my collection get over a certain aize, I think there's a big combination of things. Part of it is nostalgia, there's certain things I can smell that just take me back in time or remind me of a person. On the same note, when someone wears something that smells really good or interesting, it just adds a whole layer to them. Then there's the artistry of it, I love how simple the act of making a fragrance is and yet how magical it can be if you do it just right.
      Mainly though, if I'm being really honest, I think of a fragrance as a bit of personal armor sometimes. I'm a giant guy at 6"6. My shoe size is big enough that I can't just walk into a store and find a collection to try out. Clothing is a similar issue, when you're my height and size, a lot of department stores cater to the folks smaller than me, so I constantly see things I would wear if they made my size, but they don't. Even if they did, I have terrible fashion sense for myself.
      The way I smell however, always puts me in a different mood dependings on what I'm wearing and the truth is, I'm not looking at my own outfits, but I can always smell myself. So my mood and my fragrance are symbiotic. Sometimes I'll wear something because I'm feeling a certain way, sometimes I'll wear something because I want to feel a certain way.
      The reason I watch some of the fragrance RUclips channels that I do is not because I need recommendations or anything, sometimes maybe on a new release if I trust their previous thoughts on other things then yes; I primarily just enjoy other people being passionate about the same things I am. Same with my watching videos about writing or philosophy or anything like that. There's times to learn, and times to have the shared experience of your passions. With fragrance I have maybe a half dozen people I know in my personal life who have the same level of interest that I do, most of the people I know think it's curious. So yeah, I like the whole idea of how scent can play a part in your day and your experience, how it can elevate or ruin a mood. And have a wide selection for me is no different than someone who owns dozens of pairs of shoes or a ton of jewelry or a massive wardrobe.

    • @DannyBellTheAuthor
      @DannyBellTheAuthor 6 месяцев назад +10

      @marcusskyfall I hate to say it, but some of the bottles I've drained over the years have been Aventus, Guerlain L'omme Ideal Cologne, Purple Label, Imaginary Authors Mosaic, Guerlain Vetiver Extreme, and Versace Man Eau Fraiche. These are all extremely easy reaches for me. I wish I could say it was something cool like Amouage Imitation Man or Diptyque Oyedo or Byredo Slow Dance or any number of other scents, but the truth is I can easily like something more than some of these others and just not wear it as much because the occasion doesn't call for it.
      Actually, here, Dirty Secret Time: My most used fragrance of all time is Calvin Klein Eternity. I don't wear it very much any more, but when I was a kid it was the first fragrance I became obsessed with and for like a decade straight until I ventured into other fragrances, it was one of maybe three things I ever wore along with Azzaro Chrome and maybe one or two other oddballs. Then I discovered Ralph Lauren Purple Label and that made me want to smell everything else everywhere.

    Bit precarious positioning of those Roja's... 😬 But you can't hide that bottle of Old Spice Chris. 😄 I see it reaching out. 🙌 Bit of a tip for your situation, there's something to be said about stackable 60L clear bins. Log the fragrances you don't use in a spreadsheet, clean 'em, box 'em, stick 'em in a clear bin and label the bin (I like coloured labels). Neat, clean, organized, simple. Anytime you want to find a fragrance, check the spreadsheet and you know where it is. Colours just make it easier. I've also been a strong advocate for closed cabinets because of the dusting and knocking issues, but to each their own. Appreciate you sharing the collection! 1000 here we come!! 💪

      @@FRAGMENTAL If you're Marc the fragrance godfather (robes08), you'd be correct. 😄 It's why he keeps his doors open during filming. But no, I'm not a fan of glass doors myself, rather something opaque to keep the light out. But if glass is the only option, there are decorative adhesive linings that you can place on the outside to prevent glare. I actually have them on two of my cabs. Makes the doors look like a full wood grain. No more UV. Problem solved.

    Great video! Aleays interesting to see the different rabbit holes that reviewers explore with all the different houses. I just started my channel and I’m still trying to find my rhythm. But I’ve been watching and collecting since March of 2021. I have about 350 bottles, 10-15 back up bottles and about 20 decants. So, modest by the standards of our little community here, but probably out of control by an outsider’s standards. But I’m not in debt or anything like that. I think I’ll be slowing down significantly this year- I want to explore more niche and indie this year, only a few designers I’m interested in.

    I thought you had over 1000 there as you took us through them. Can't quite believe there are only 750 there! I probably have 150 @ 25 ml or above plus another 50 or so manufacturers 10-20ml bottles. I have long realised I won't use up most full bottles so those smaller manufacturers sizes when they do them are great for me. Then of course there are decants too. My average price per fragrance is much less than yours as with expensive fragrances I will buy a decant instead as I don't think any fragrance is worth more than £150 (and most far less). My average bottle is probably around £35 but this is not me buying crap but taking advantages of Molinards for that price (thanks All Beauty) or Zilli for £25 & La Manufacture for £29 (thanks TK Maxx). I'm looking to scale it down now as I want to get past the stage where 5 days a week are sampling or first wears from a newly purchased bottle and only 2 days are a wear of a previous purchase. Something the other way round would be good. 2 days a week on new fragrances and 5 using what I already have

    A couple years ago I got caught up in the whole frag-comm discussion of "Having too many fragrances". At the time I put together an amazing collection, but eventually fell into the trap and felt guilty so I sold most of it. Worst mistake ever. I learned the money part isn't the issue, money comes and moeny goes, I'll save up for what I want, but having any fragrance at my disposal when I want to wear it and how much I can spray means so much to me, and selling off my collection taught me that. I'm currently rebuilding and will never make that mistake again. You can never have too many fragrances! Amazing collection!

    I've been at this for about 7 years, but a frag lover for much much longer. I started collecting when I found out about discounters. Once I knew you could buy them on the cheap it was on. However, I am very picky, therefore I own about 150. It's 75 winter and 75 warm weather.

    50 is the cut off point for me. If I want to get a new fragrance I sacrifice an old one. If I absolutely don't want to get rid of any then I will just get a sample when I can. But i strictly stick to 50 at most and sell before I buy I think that's how I've managed to keep things manageable and curb the itch for a new fragrance 😂

    I expected you to be over 1,000. Given that this is part of your vocation/avocation, I'm not surprised by your numbers. Interesting. My collection is much smaller, though getting a little large for me at the moment. Not counting samples, I'm just reaching 40. I'm looking to cut back on purchasing, though there's one or two I'm considering for the spring/summer. Last week I did get my noise on Anonim's Silver Ambergris and was impressed.

    Chris, your rough organization around brand/collection is really not as disorganized as you suggested. But no matter how you do it, as long as you can find what you're looking for, who cares how it's organized -- or not?!
    My collection is about 200+, and it's crudely organized by style. I also have them catalogued in a database, which gives me the flexibility of looking at them in various orders or filtered by style.
    But with so many fragrances, I sometimes have trouble deciding which one to wear! And you have a LOT more than me! Glad to hear I'm not the only one who struggles with that "first-world problem." 😅

I love seeing other collections and especially when we've been seeing them in the background for so long so it's nice to get a close up. Nice that we got to see everything and not just a pan through of the collection as well. Although there is no clear organisation, as long as you know where everything is, thats the important bit. Awesome fragrance collection 👍

    That's a great collection if you can do it but as for me, I doubt I'd ever make a decision on what to wear and I'm late often enough as it is. Mine is around 30 and almost all niche (about 1/3 ATH). I buy a lot of samples but if its not a love then I don't buy a bottle, although I may change that if I ever decide to start a channel.

The giftee's birthday is around valentine's day so I know to expect sales then. Based on your past experiences which retailer has the best sales/deals on this product? I prefer to shop Macy, Sephora, or Ulta but can go to nordstrom or bloomingdales if needed. I don't know what size bottle to buy because that would depend on the deals available
