said similar thing. watch several "man on the street" opinion videos where a YT reviewer goes out to ask random people which one they like...they smell and pick one. VERY VERY VERY few random people will know and identify what they were given to smell, even if they're the all time top seller/popular fragrances. you can basically wear anything and it will have a complete mystery smell to just about everyone you pass by. you will NOT smell like "everyone" with the "mass appeal" product you chose.

Favorite part of my morning routine is picking out my scent of the day.

I’ve smelled hundreds of fragrances and don’t care about compliments. I still like both Sauvage and BDC. I don’t find them boring or generic. Sauvage in particular has a defined personality. Whether you like that personality or not is a different question. Sauvage has to be one of the most polarizing “safe” scents of all time.

It’s sad to see how down the drain the community has gotten. We have reviewers that are afraid to speak up and honestly review a fragrance out of fear of offending a sponsor or a house that sends them free merchandise. Every video is a built around an ad or them trying to sell their own brand. It’s a breath of fresh air to see how pure your videos still are. Your the last OG.

I 100% agree with you. If I don't like the way it smells, why should I buy it? I'm going to hate the way I smell? What sense does that make.. Lol.. I actually don't like Acqua Di Gio Profumo, yet is in so many Top 10s.. I have my tastes, I wear my colognes because of how it makes me feel about myself, which enhances my self esteem. It completes my look of the day. Hence the reason the term Scent of the Day exists. Heck, in my he-bag, I generally carry 2 or 3 different colognes with me to satisfy my ADHD. Sometimes, I just feel like smelling a specific cologne for no reason what so ever. Which is why I love this fragrance community. If I don't agree with one reviewer, I don't have to continue watching their channel. I find myself in agreement with your nose, so I always come back back to your chanel since at least 2010. You are true to your nose and not the trends.

And to me if u smell one ‘blue’ fragrance you smelt a lot of them. Bleu de Chanel and Sauvage and the blue frags are ok but I would personally pass on them for that reason alone. But they’re not bad. Just way more original stuff available out there thats better worth the time and money. Just my two cents. But at the end of the day u gotta wear what U like. Good video!

This is one of the greatest videos ever made, and something that resonates with all serious collectors once they get it. Chanel and Dior couldn't make a bad fragrance if they tried but these two fragrances have no personality or character, it's like dating a model or driving a 911. That's great for certain occasions and it could be the life for some people but it's going to end tragically for a nontrivial swathe of the population. They are great as anchors for comparison purposes as you progress through collecting fragrances but they can never become staples or signature scents. They are meant to be discarded by all serious collectors.

I’ve been on a kick in which I wear fragrances that are marketed towards women. J’Adore by Dior and every version of J’Adore smells amazing. One amazing thing is how many different options in concentration For instance, J’Adore is offered in an EDT, EDP, EDP Absolu, Essence de Parfum, and Extrait De Parfum. Each strength is a different interpretation of the same scent. It’s pretty cool to be able to smell the original perfume DNA, but yet also be able to notice the difference On thing I absolutely love doing applying the J’Adore parfum extrait behind my ears, 2 sprays of J’Adore L’Or (Essence de Parfum) on my neck, 1 spray of J’Adore Absolu in the creases of my elbows, then lastly, I spray one spray of the original EDP on each wrist, behind each kneecap, and then 2 sprays down the inside of my shirt. It sounds like a lot of perfume, which it is, BUT, it isn’t overwhelming, because the perfume is more spread out. I sprayed it on just like that before I went to a party the other day. I had 3 people/women tell me that I smelled “delicious” after they hugged me. No, not after I walked into the room, but after they hugged me which meant my fragrance was nice and close to me (mind you, I’m a 23 year old guy wearing perfume that’s marketed for women, and not one person said “you smell like a woman”) Don’t worry about smelling like a man or a woman. Worry about smelling simply amazing. That’s the only thing you should worry about when you pull the trigger to your fragrance. If you’re worried about smelling like a man or woman, come out of the closet. Only closeted gays, who don’t want to be found out, worry about shit like that🖤

Better quality version of Sauvage and Bleu De Chanel in the designers, for wearing in the office for me would be Grey Vetitver by Tom Ford. EDP version. I used to have a bottle Bleu De Chanel EDT, i did think it was overrated. EDP is slightly better as its darker and sweeter. But overall for this genre of fragrance Grey Vetitver is my favourite for the office and its underrated in the fragcom.

They’re just OK. They get the job done. But for anyone who keeps exploring they end up finding better scents. BDC much better as a composition than Sauvage. But does get boring after a while. Great to hear your honest thoughts brother. That’s how it should be. Criticism is a good thing

Niche snob!! XD No, jokes aside, personally I think ambroxan ruined most of the releases ten years back to nowadays, but I believe it's a matter of 'nose'... I just cant tolerate that note (and cashmeran, another popular molecule)

Well done Bro.That's exactly what I would expect from you.I can't stand Sauvage and gave it away.Now Bleu is another story for me.I actually think the edt smells good and serves as a dumb reach.Keep cranking em out.

As a fraghead with around 50 bottles I am not wowed by either of these but the have their place as a blind reach clubbing/ social meet up fragrance. But I loved your breakdown on why they weren't for you.

Marc I don’t disagree with your take. Reason being, I feel the same way. I do own both of them. My wife loves them on me. That’s the only reason I still have it. So no hating here!

I agree with Dior Sauvage after a while it gives me a headache. I do however love the edp version of bleu de Chanel it's a nice fresh masculine scent.

I can go for long periods of time without any compliments, even from the supposed compliment "monsters". People will compliment you if that is the type of person they are and they like you. If they don't like you or if they keep to themselves, chances are, it doesn't matter, you aren't going to get a compliment. IMO, if I am out and about, work, friends, whatever, I wear whatever the hell I want if I enjoy it. However, my woman has particular scents she loves, likes, and hates. Some of the ones she hates I love, which is natural, but I don't wear those around her because I don't want to be offputting. For example, she loves Encre Noire (which is surprising to me), but hates Encre Noire A L'Extreme. Like for her, the original is an 8.5, while L'Extreme is a 1. So you never know what people will enjoy. I believe when people go for the compliment "monsters", they are simply referring to a mass appealing scent that isn't so polarizing.

Thanks for your honestly on these two. I tend to agree with you. But even if I didn't agree with you, I think your critiques are fair.

In my opinion, these are for guys who probably only have one or two scents that they can wear for about anything. Everyday Joe scents. The flankers are probably geared for the collector. Maybe, put out a video for us everyday Joe's on simple easy to wear scents. I think I would enjoy that. I like your channel

does anyone ever picked up that bleu de chanel kinda smells like urine or body odour, its ppls favorite but it definitely not for me

Bleu de Chanel is something my brothers generation was into so it's something I always pass over. Sauvage is something that everyone from my generation wears (if they do wear fragrance) which is fine but when I smell Sauvage I just get that pepper smack in the face and I don't like it. I much prefer the way Versace Man smooths the pepper.

Owned Dior Savauge and tried it on the store before buying it...but after wearing it a week or so it wasn’t for me. Gave it to my son and he hardly wear it too, so there’s the hype. Got samples of Bleu de Channel edt, edp, parfum and tried them out, these smells like laundry soap or deodorant! I have to like and enjoy what I wear, don’t care that these are ladies compliment getters.

Nice one. Your taste is your taste, the people who complain about this video just has to see something else. That being said I like Sauvage myself and don't care that much about Blue...each nose likes what it likes.

Marc, not everyone lives in north pole. Where i live there is one season. That is summer. To me blue and citrus is life saver. You mentioned climate in your recent video, how could you have forgotten about that already??? SMH

Pretty cool your honest take, educated and thoughtful. Strangely I simply disagree because my nose likes those two. In truth everyone's nose is different, we all actually smell differently. I wished I loved YSL-DH but I hate it and it was expensive. Of my modest 20, Dior-S is my unintentional favorite... A blind test confirmed this. I just like it and it has more girls comming up and hugging me and catching a smell. Others that do well on me are as far as ladies sneaking a hug are, Valentino, Spice bomb extreme, Aventus, Pure Havane, V-Eros and for my own nose I also like some cheapies: Clayborne Lucky, V-archer, Clayborne for men and and even goofy Drakkar. Its like beer just because its expensive doesn't mean I will like it. We simply like what we like. The most important take is your honest opinion and it shines through in this video.

i kinda like the bleu de chanel. i dont love it, but it performs well, is kinda interesting but boring compared to most out there, but Sauvage is just gross. its cloying, synthetic and feels like a layer of plastic, soffocating your own natural smell, instead of blending with it.

Kind of agree. Liked both initially, ended up giving both away. Whatever made me purchase them at first somehow was lost. Not bad just stopped working for me.

I like dior sauvage in the hottest days of summer because it projects all day. Besides that, never use it anymore since my collection has grown. Great video.

I have a different take. I like both of them so I’ll wear both of them. Most guys I know don’t even wear a fragrance so these won’t be overused in my area. Maybe it depends on where you live. I also like many of the Bleu type scents. I prefer sweet fragrances but for spring and summer, I like both of these. 🇺🇸

I really HATE Dior Sauvage and really think that I have wasted my money. I wore it for 3 hours and it felt its chemicals even in my mouth. Really hate it. I hate chemical type smell coming from Dior and Chanel perfumes. Although I like the Dry down of Blue de Chanel

Funny video. Also foolish to purchase something that you don’t like. You might wanna put that money in the bank and stop buying so many frags. Funniest part though, is when you said you want the “blue” trend to end. Just wear what you like and makes you feel confident. I don’t feel confident wearing what I think are feminine frags like Reflection Man or Dior Fev Del, or some stank oud, but hey, do your thing. Why would I wish for the end of those type of frags? 😂

Amen, my brother above the border. Sports and Bleus--is it the screech of synthetic bright accords? That's my problem with them. I also think too many drank the coolaid called ADG Profumo--same problem: characterless bright synthetics.

Alot about fragrances is subjective and opinion but you are just factually incorrect about compliments... Fact is certain fragrances garner more compliments especially from women. I'll bet you your entire future earnings that random sample of 100 women La Nuit gets more compliments than Gucci Guilty Absolute...so No compliments is not a "null point" there are easily measurable differences

I very much dislike Sauvage as I can’t stand Ambroxen and it smells to sharp,synthetic and gives me a headache. However, I do like BDC but unfortunately it doesn’t smell that great on my skin. I’ve smelled it on others though and it does smell great.

I gave both away within a few weeks of purchasing. Even after dropping Arab-style fragrances from my collection, I will NOT be adding these types back into my collection. I’ll stick with Hermès (JCE- era), Chanel (pre-BDC) and L’Artisan Parfumeur.
