It’s fine but it’s nothing special

This is why I dont fret over what the frag community calls "overrated" or "overplayed". I have one other person I know who is into fragrances at all..and when I'm out..people aren't wearing anything. You can throw on a Nautica Voyage or an F-Black and it will be more unique than what 90% of people ever experience. I had a woman approach me in a supermarket isle demanding to know what I was wearing and it was just plain ol' Montblanc Legend EDP

I am 54yrs old and I like Mont Blanc legend!

I’ve been wearing azzarro for a while and I always get compliments on how well I smell. Definitely recommend!

F Black is really nice at the dry down. The opening isn't interesting, it smells kinda cheap. But later it gets better, it's warm, not overly sweet, very pleasantly pulsating scent. Like more rounded, less intrusive version of L'instant de Guerlain

Ferragamo F Black is actually a really good fragrance. Whilst I do not care much for external validation from anyone I actually had a person come up to me in a supermarket and say to me, when I was wearing that, you look fantastic and you smell absolutely gorgeous I have had a number of similar experiences wearing F Black. Weird as its one of the cheapest I own. So I don't think its just the cost of a fragrance that's important.

agreed. dont forget. its cheap because they dont do marketing for it. It was created by Chanels best master parfumer. this is a high quality that reminds me of Chanel Homme the original. if you smell that this is a revelation. the composition is of extremely high quality. so its only cheaper now because its been around for so long. great house and this has staying power.

Burberry Touch was actually my first fragrance and how I got into fragrances. I got it as a gift for Christmas when I was in college. I still wear it. It’s my office fragrance.

Awesome video guys! As a young man constantly trying to grow and mature, watches and fragrances have really piqued my interest. Given that, I’m so happy to have come across Teddy’s watch channel and this one; the level of detail, passion, and quality you both embed into your videos is remarkable. I wish you both the best of luck moving forward :)

My husband fixes the opening of Club de nuit Intense man by layering with two shots of Nishane Hacivat. Makes it smell a lot more like the original Aventus. And trust me it's not just a warm weather scent this stuff is very strong and cuts through cold very easily. Definitely recommend for guys who don't like wearing sweet scents in winter. Also if you like Mont Blanc Legend please try Parfum de Marly Percival it is a niche version of Legend and performance is at least 10 times better.

Burberry Touch is a strong fragrance. I’ve never thought of it as safe. Most of these takes I don’t agree with but hey fragrances are up to the individual.

I have CDNIM Edt. The initial spray is strong, but after 10 min your good to go. It settles down nicely during the first hour, the drydown is amazing, if you go nose blind don't worry, others will still smell it. It happens to me all the time, and I get compliments even after 7 hours on my skin. But.... The trick is to only spray it on the back of your neck just once. Trust me!

I own all of those & they're decent performers. Wanted By Night is the most popular fall/winter fragrance. My favorite of them is F Black, the "Wolf of Wall Street" fragrance. It's classy on a budget. A businessman would wear it.

I like the addition of the signature baldassare B-roll to these fragrance videos. Really slick shots

I like that your sister appreciates good fragrances

I’m a Black car driver and I wear these cologne’s in every day basis:: Bleu D/Chanel, Parada Black, MontBlnc Explorer Platinum

is her nose broken? i tried Salvatore F Black. it doesnt smell like YSL La Nuit like most have been parroting. It reminds of Allure Homme by Chanel for colder weather. i learned recently after i suspected this that Polger was the nose and he worked on some serious classics for Chanel including Bleu De Chanel. its a beautiful composition. its masculine ill take it. check the dry down please.

Love myself some F Black. Definitely one of my favourites. Another affordable cologne is Tabac Man Black. Inexpensive and pleasant. Can't go wrong.

Good video guys! Had a sample recently of another Wanted flanker- The Most Wanted, and my wife was a big fan of how it smelled on me. Her favorite is Layton, but this was one of the more positive reactions I've had from her.

I love how Teddy tries to sell Burberry Touch as another safe option whereas Courtney is just straight out nope at the first whiff. She then goes on to be accommodating to the fragrance, as to not disparage its fans, but its fate remains as sealed as it ever was. I like vetiver, Courtney so obviously does not. It's such a good reminder that different people have different tastes and most people won't ever make much of a big fuss about it. They just try to distance themselves. Like how Courtney places the tester strip on the table, as far away as possible, right after saying nope.

You’re right, t’s crazy how people have such different taste. I love Burberry Touch!

Burberry Touch is a great fragrance.

F is a classic office fragrance imo, it might be dated in the blue world, but it definitely is the best bang for your buck in terms of a good smelling fragrance that’s smells classy. I wish you would of gave it a dry down rate. The monte blanc is a solid crowd pleaser, women do seem to love it and it’s cause the fierce dna was a classic hit.

I love it! "Smells like the mall" That was perfect.

Jimmy Choo Man Ice is better than the original. CDNI is like Aventus in that which batch code you get it can also smell differently.

Thanks a lot. Your watch channel already had me spending money. And now you got me buying cologne for the first time in years too with this channel. 😄 Seriously though, I just got a bottle of jazz club. Based on your recent video. And that stuff is really nice. Smells great. And it's subtle. People aren't smelling it from 20 feet away. The fact you can tell most people who are wearing cologne from a mile away was what has kept me from ever using it. Just because I always found overpowering cologne obnoxious. And didn't want to be that guy. So, thanks to both of you. Having both your opinions is extremely helpful in deciding what to buy.

Very good video! Different vibe than most of the other Fragrance channels and I love it

The production quality of your videos is top notch! I subscribed after watching just one video. Knowledgeable and entertaining content

I wear fragrance every day and none of the ones I use were here probably cause they’re way too expensive, keep this up though I enjoy good watch and fragrance reviews so I know what to get in the future. (I should probably get a cheap yet good fragrance for traveling let me know what’s your best one so I can test them out) Also I don’t know if you classify Puerto Rico as U.S. but fragrances here are big. Everyone uses fragrance and smells really clean. Anyways can’t wait for the next video.

Love the quality of the camera work. Nice presentation. Cool design...

As a gun guy, watch collector and PC geek. I never thought I would be into fragrances as much as I am now. It's a fun hobby and cheaper then the aforementioned hobbies. Also different scents put you in different moods and mindsets. It's quite the experience to treat your nose to an array of different scents. Don't be afraid to dive in.

Apparently, Montblanc Legend is a dupe for Parfum de Marly’s Percival. And I adore Percival, so if it’s similar, it’s quite the bargain!

My new favorite is Ralph’s Club from Ralph Lauren.

My favorite from this list based on smell is F Black, least favorite is Jimmy Choo Man. The Armaf has outstanding performance and is ALWAYS complimented when I wear it.🤷🏽‍♂️

It's not my favorite but I like F Black. I don't wear it much anymore but it's a good fragrance a it's affordable. Frag heads hate it or love it. The drydown is good and it lasts a long time.

I like Voyage, but if Courtney said Montblanc Legend smelled better...I'd buy some Legend.

Nice just found this chanel! My favorite watch you tuber doing frags! Two of my favorite hobbies. I also collect guns are you going to do a gun channel to cover my hobby trifecta? LOL

I own them all except the Jimmy Choo. And the Nautica and Burberry bring me the most compliments. Most wanted by night is perfect for nights, the Mont Blanc also is similar to PDM Percival.

Just wondering, given your name, whether you might review Ambre Baldassari?

Also, several of the frequencies that you tried are very different in the opening and in the dry down. In some of your blind group videos, you have a fresh strip and a dry down strip. I think if you use that format for videos like this it would be more helpful to your viewers. This isn't just you, I'd say 80% of the fragrance reviews that I read are of people smelling a strip that's just been sprayed, and it doesn't really convey the fragrance as a whole, since most of the duration is spent during Dryden
