We are back again with another blind reaction video. We picked out 7 popular niche fragrances for our guests to react to. Each guest was given 2 test strips for each fragrance. The 1st strip is sprayed on 10-30 seconds before, and the 2nd strip was sprayed an hour before each guest sat down to give it a chance to dry down. After a quick break, they then will go back and smell them all again to decide what is their favorite and least favorite. We hope you enjoy it!

There's simply no way this many popular fragrances can have this many bad reactions. 95% of fragrances I smell are reasonably pleasant and at worst "basic". It's the rare one that is offensive.

    • I agree test strips are deceiving, often you only smell the top notes with test strips it traps the top note because the paper they use is super absorbent but in reality you aren't wearing this paper. When you spray fragrance on skin and even often clothes that top note doesn't get trapped it fades away after a short amount of time. You may think clothes are really absorbent, some clothes are but generally test strips are still more absorbent and they hold the fragrance top notes better than clothes. That's why you can't just use any type of paper for test strips, the test strips are special paper that's more absorbent

Layton, the vicks smell can come off chemically (bug spray if you will). Tobacco Vanille, the dirty chocolate under your seat makes sense with the tobacco + sweet vanilla combo. They're niche fragrances for a reason, they aren't supposed to mass please. There's a reason Cedrat Boise did so well, because it's just a generic easy to like citrus/woody combo.

  • I think these reviews are realistic to what people would say about them if they didn’t know what they were at all. Part of owning many niche and designer fragrances is KNOWING what you have and knowing the brand, ie the package, aesthetic, unboxing, all of that goes into your assumptions on the fragrance. If you entered into every single fragrance without knowing what the scent is, or what brand it was, it’ll be much easier to draw your true opinion bc you aren’t influenced on your opinions of the brand.

    • @@chilldude3333 There are many studies that show the importance of packaging, and it’s not just for fragrance. Why do you think people associate non-name brand products with lesser quality? Take cereal for example, if you seen ‘Honey Nut Cheerios’ sitting next to the great value version ‘Honey Nut O’s’ you’d automatically assume that honey nut Cheerios had a different or possibly better taste based on the packaging alone. Your perception would be different and therefor your experience throughout testing the product would be different as well. Just because you’ve never tried something in such way doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. It’s actually the difference between knowledge vs Inference. One involves actually testing and deciding for yourself and the other is a simple assumption based off very little knowledge of what you are discussing. www.acrwebsite.org/volumes/6050 www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/jssdj/58/5/58_5_5_11/_pdf/-char/ja ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:21b8b731-58d6-42bd-8111-f2f303ba3165/download_file?file_format=pdf&safe_filename=Spence%252C%2BCJ%2Band%2BVelasco%252C%2BC%252C%2B%25282018%2529%2BFood%2BQuality%2Band%2BPreference%2BAAM.pdf&type_of_work=Journal+article

    • Update: I actually got around to buying it. My quick review: The top doesn't smell like Aventus but I can see why people think it does. It actually has an opening similar to Hanae Mori HM. The drydown smells like CK Euphoria Men, I swear to god it does. It's ironic because they have the same elements, ie patchouli, cedar, leather, woodsy, etc. I still would give the nod to Mont Blanc Explorer over this. But that's just my 2 cents :D

I I gotta admit I was expecting a bomb of some sort - based on the reactions. Overall it's a pleasant smell. I really love the drydown but that takes a while to kick in. I don't like the mids.

Sample for 6 months, decide on everything you want and take a trip to Paris. Then you likely won't be in so much denial one one of them turns out to be a dud, which will inevitably happen. If you had access to women, you'd get their help assessing these BEFORE you buy

  • Interesting that people often don’t pick out what I think of as the key scents when they don’t know what to expect. For example the TF Tobacco smells very strongly of tobacco to me, but perhaps that is because I read the name and knew how to characterize what I was smelling. How much does the power of suggestion help you find the scents? This looks like it would be fun with a bunch of Frag lovers at a party, the same way blind wine tastings are fun, and let you really figure out how good your nose is.

Understanding that paper doesn't do some fragrances justice, I totally get how using tester strips allows for the process to be consistently and easily replicable and how that makes it a better, more scientific approach than skin (uncontrolled variable). But maybe it would be helpful to suggest that they don't put their nose directly to the tester strip, for the obvious concentration of chemicals that can give an inaccurate impression of the smell. Or, at the very least, instruct to also waft the strip (probably more for recently sprayed ones) before they decide to put their nose to it. Maybe that'll help ~shrugs~
