Your natural voice spoken in a soft tone is much more appealing than whispered speech. You have such a lovely voice- it interferes with the quality. If you listen to some ASMR posts that are spoken in Japanese, the quality of voices in a soft tone is what is appealing more than not being able to understand the spoken text unless you read the subs. Your voice is calming as it is. Best of luck with your new channel. This is just a suggestion and not meant to be critical. 😀

Some of you have no idea with ASMR is, do you. Everything he was doing in the video appeals to someone in the ASMR community. If it’s not for you, you know what to do. Simple as!

@@BgChef thank you for the comment. Nicolas was gracious in his response. I understand that people do not understand ASMR but they don't have to watch this channel. I love soft spoken ASMR vs whispering and I like tapping and page turning vs mouth sounds so this video was right up my alley, especially with sweet Sophie in the background. I would not, however, complain if his ASMR style was not my taste, I'd just carrying on watching his other channel. Great video Nicolas!

The rubbing and soft turning of the pages of the book, your voice, even the little pup sitting relaxing to ASMR is just lovely.

Hi Nicolas! I agree that your normal voice is already very soft and calming, and slightly more velvety when you don't whisper, which I love. I love the cadence of your video. Excited for more videos! What a great idea.

Perfection! Thanks so much for this New Year’s gift!

The Deeda Blair book was a great place to start! You could even do a part 2 and cover more of the menus. I love your regular voice. Please don’t worry about whispering for the AMSR videos.

I always hoped you'd do ASMR! I love the topic and pace. I also like the ambiance!

Almost too relaxed to comment! Congrats on this new channel. Sophie makes me smile. I would love to see you do asmr flower arranging and review books on flower arranging, gardening, etc. Reviewing gorgeous wallpaper samples and fabrics would be lovely.

I think I found you (two years ago!) when I was looking for an asmr video. You were cleaning something and I really always considered your videos asmr-like because it appeals to me. Love following your youtube journey ❤

OMG your voice is absolutely perfect for this. Really loved the book also. Can't wait for the next one . Sending hugs to you and Sophie from Pauline Christina and Danielle. 🤗🤗💫💫

The whisper voice might be distracting. Everyone enjoyed your asmr-like effect in normal videos with your normal voice, why not just leave your voice the same for asmr channel too?

I agree. If you just speak in a soft tone, in your regular voice, I feel it would be much more appealing. I am a big fan of ASMR and steer away from the whispers and tapping/ scratching sounds. It’s just my opinion, however I wish you luck whatever you decide. 😀

Thank you for this channel! ❤❤

How lovely Nicolas thank you for sharing :)

Thank you so much for taking time to treat us to something so special. I Trully appreciate your efforts. Despite some of the negative comments I personally adore your natural voice tine so as the gentle soft quiet one but I will be happy with what ever decision you make just please do not stop making those videos. After a day full of stress and pressure it is a pleasure to watch your both channels. Thank you xx

I think it would be nice to see a crafts video with soft talk, talking about art - architecture….or showing a beautiful place with soft talk soundtrack….

Lovely Nicolas, thank you for a really beautiful relaxing session.

Awesome first ASMR! Love watching Sophie

Well done for your first ASMR video Nicolas. It was a perfect blend of whisper and your normal voice and the MOST calming, fulfilling meditative experience taking us thru a book, one of your favorites I must add. I was gleefully smiling and feeling love when I saw Sophie join you, talking to my phone saying “I love you Sophie”. The perfect choice and all the perfect elements for a favorite go-to ASMR 📖🐶☕️🗣🎙😌😴💤 👏💙

Loved this video! Well done 👏🏻👏🏻

I think your advice to relax is timely as we are always pushed to be active at all times and if we want to just take in a garden or the calm of a sitting room there must be something off about us. I loved your book selection and enjoyed the reading. I always loved walking for long stretches but my back is not cooperating lately and I miss the fresh air and watching the changes in nature. Thank you for the uploads and enjoy the new year.

Subscribed! This is wonderful! Thank you Nicolas!

I really love show and tell ASMR, would you consider doing one with some of your favorite items/trinkets around your house? 😊

Thrilled about your new channel, Nicolas! I would love to see unboxing videos or product reviews, as you are great at describing things in an interesting, elegant way.

Lovely. I fell asleep in my favorite armchair listening to your soft voice.

Thanks so much Nicolas for a beautifully relaxing and elegant video. It was a bit soft for me but perhaps my phone is old or I am going deaf😂Best wishes, I always look forward to your videos.

Sooo relaxing , thank you for this love 😊❤❤❤

Nicholas, I fully enjoyed this new video. I find your voice very comforting. Thank you for trying this new format. I find that I enjoy authors, decorators and other personalities that you introduce to us to and learn the secrets to living this beautiful lifestyle. Thank you.

I always love your book episodes

Thank you kindly for beginning this channel and for this new video. It was quite relaxing and I enjoyed learning more about Deeda Blair. An idea for a future video could be making a flower arrangement. It is always so relaxing when you do it in your other channel :). I hope you have a lovely day.

fabulous video. Books, relaxing techniques, positive thoughts and reading a story to Sophie but she must be on the view as well. Looking forward to your next video.

Wow, this was really nice. 😮🥰👏🏽

Omg I didn't b raise you had another channel!!! I think I've been living under a rock

Sophie looks mesmerized!

Your main channel was recommended on a design video I was watching. Two of the loves in my life - interior design and ASMR. My dream has come true .

Beautiful video and wonderful book! Personally, I think that your natural voice is very relaxing too. You have a very beautiful voice so even if you don't wisper, you sound soft and calming! ✨

Oh my God, this is heaven. ❤

I just loved watching Sophie watching you, she is so gorgeous. Love your voice and Deeda style is something I find very elegant and to my taste. But I am not that elegant😂. Look forward to the next episode.

You are elegant and the way you photograph and speak is also elegant.

Congrats on your new channel! I'm here for the sound and the education about this book. (Sophie in her chair- she's the sweetest - she is loving this ASMR).

This was so incredibly relaxing and calming! I love the new channel and look forward to future videos. Could you do a similar video about the Bunny Mellon Style book or a beautifully illustrated cookbook like Sweet Paris? Also, an asmr video about tea or gardening would be lovely.

Excellent first video. You were made to do ASMR. To me successful for relaxation is a consistent voice level and meticulous slow speech. You are perfect for this. Good luck.

Love this ASMR voice ❤

Dear Nicolas, as someone who has subscribed to your other channel for several years now, I am happy to support this ASMR channel. I do think I prefer your normal voice which is soothing and easy on the ears. Also, a video of you going on your walks somewhere serene and peaceful with either the sounds of nature and your voice commenting occasionally would also be lovely! All the best to you from Plano, TX. Oh, and thank you for suggesting Rajiv Surendra’s channel. You both appear to be kindred spirits😊

Nicholas I love this! The books❤️🙂Looking forward to your unintentional asmr channel and your original. Great idea for 2024.

I like the whispering😊❤

I am loving this beautiful ASMR Nicolas this is gold because I love that you are using your beautiful voice and words to shape beautifully I feel like this is the best ASMR 👌 for me Sophie is ofcourse a STAR 🌟 everytime she comes up to you to say art this is perfect ASMR ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Wishing you best of luck with your new journey!

Thank you Nicolas for reading a book by Deeda Blair .... indeed a beautiful book.... the artistic simplicity is so amazing ❤ The porcelain flowers are absolutely gorgeous 😍 Hello Sophie girl...😘

Nicolas ------ I want to be certain that there was no confusion concerning my comment from an earlier date regarding this video. I was attempting to say that I don't think you need to change your voice. Your normal speaking voice from your other channel is already perfect for ASMR. You ought to consider speaking with that same voice on this channel too, that is my opinion. Thank You!

Omg perfect

I love love love your voice, and was delighted to hear a very soft whispered rendition of NF! Little Sophie looks quite as entranced as I was! This new channel will be very successful I predict!

I love Deeda's silvery blue rooms.. thats one of my favorite colors, I painted my bedroom a similar color a couple years back. The monochromatic works although it can be a bit too relaxed and a bit sleepy sometimes..which is perfect for a bedroom lol

Love this! Whether regular voice or whisper voice it’s all good! I encourage you to experiment and find what works for you and your audience. I am here either way.

Wonderful ❤

Best of luck with this channel! I really love ASMR and am one of those people who mentioned it to you that you should do ASMR 😊

Love this - when I need to really relax I’m going to turn to this channel. A few comments on how whispery your voice is - I guess they missed the point. It’s supposed to be relaxing with your beautiful, soothing voice.

So far I like this channel. Well you may have to do more videos showing off your wonderful looking hands. You are simply an elegant gent sir.

excellent asmr👌

Dont worry about all the mixed comments on whisper vs normal voice - so many asmr channels post different styles of videos because different ppl like different things. I enjoyed this style alot, and also enjoy your normal voice. I dont think you can go wrong!

Wonderful!

Love your new channel . You have a beautiful calming voice. Enjoyed reading the book with you Love for you to read beauty books on taking care of your face. Nicholas , you face is beautiful and smooth. You look much younger than you said. Happy Birthday Nicholas on January 23, 2024 Take care

Ideas: some "how to" vids like ironing, folding, polishing silver, working in your garden. Organizing closets, drawers, cabinets....or even filling out/writing in your calendar. These are all natural triggers for me, usually they are unintentional asmr.

A baking or cooking video would be great!

Nicholas, you have a beautiful naturally spoken voice. To me it is diminished by the whisper voice. I think you can show your books and anything else in your natural voice and it will be very soothing. Maybe leave some quiet spots and just show activities like baking, but explain in your natural voice throughout. Just my view! Cheers for trying something new!! Love you!❤

YES!🎉. Just… yes. 😊☺️😌

Sophie is an excellent pupil. lol. What a sweetie.

Nicolas, Duchess of Edinburgh, Queen of "elegant" ASMR.

When is the next video coming out? Would love for you to be consistent and post weekly with a set day for posting new content! Love your work! x

Amazing How beautiful ❤

Sophie was really dialed in for this and then she got sleepy.

Ok now I remember, I should have rather used ear phones. Well done, exquisite voice
