Fragrance Talk: How To, Where To, How Much?

[SouldjahFromTheNorth]

you're a smart young professional! props for that! i'm also one! much love for what you've been doing!

[ultrakool]

i always just usually spray the words "sexy beast" diagonally across my torso, then i'm good

[RavenLetters2011]

im a guy whos completely straight...but i still find you cute.. oh no!

[fleahan]

OK, first of all

There is NO rule on how to use fregrance

Anybody can use the fregrance the way he likes. Some people likes to where too much fregrance, and even if everybody smells me from a far distance I don't care because fregrance main advantage to be smell by other.

There is no rule on how much to apply. I spray on my skin and my body. I like to spray 15 to 10 spray. I don't care if the fregrance finished, I will buy another one.

You create these rules on your own man.

[bigboybain]

Is a spray of the LACOSTE RED STYLE IN PLAY on the back of the neck, the chest/neck and one on each wrist overwhelming or good :)? Thanks.

[MexicanBoyz6199111]

Wht if i wear yve saint laurent la nuit del homme?? how much do i wear

[mermeflorez]

Great video! The question on how much cologne to wear is complicated because every now and then you'll bump into people who are really sensitive to fragrances and they'll be offended by your smell anyway, even if you wear an appropriate amount. It's happened to me before and I felt EMBARRASSED! Now, the tip of asking someone about it IS helpful, hmm I never thought of that! Thank you for the tip!

[Netceesdotcom]

I would like to see a general video on how many sprays for each type of cologne. like general safe rules. 2 for gourmands, 3 for light fragrances, 3 for spicy, 0 for axe and old spice, ect. Can you do one like this? I think it'll be really helpful for a lot of people

[Sabumnimgeh]

@Netceesdotcom 0 for axe and Old Spice lol pmsl, i'm still laughing...

[OHHSNAP1997]

Hollister needs to watch this video lol

[rax7]

3-sprays rule, generally you should never apply more than 3. 4 would be the maximum.

[GOTGLOCK17]

Quick question bro. How much do you recomend spraying Armani Mania?

[MrRajaBihari]

u forgot major pulse point broo...just under ur side jaw lines..

[streepcotillard]

What do you recommend with cologne bottles without a spray (how to apply, how much, etc.). Thanks!

[iamelbert]

[peaclovtwilight]

[Mathyou24]

[TheTvstuff]

[djEvilDude]

Ok, how should I apply:

Armani black code,RL polo blue and azzaro chrome?

thank you!

[Bishonen97]

I think you should address what to do once you've applied too much of a fragrance.

[krekerito]

wash it. =)

seriously

[wallyy77]

hey chris, I wanted to know if it's normal that skin sometimes burns after applying cologne?

I'm asking before this doesnt happen often, maybe i'm doing something wrong...

any way thanks for the tips!

[e30roundel]

where are you spraying it? it shouldnt burn, unless you have super sensitive skin, or a rash of some sort haha

[jay144]

What transition is he using for his intro?. I see very similar intro's on youtube but I just cannot seem to figure out how they do it.

Also, your videos are very informative. But where have you been this last decade lol

[JXR29]

[F0RBESY]

[cformosa4]

[hoang1428]

@cformosa4 Ugh i sprayed my Fierce on , and it smells really good at first, then it fades away, idk if this is me getting used to the smell or im spraying it wrong..and I havent try to spray it on the pulse points yet...but after watching ur vids I'll give it a shot.:)

[tarifuddin]

can you tell me your views on angel for men by thierry mugler.. i know this devides opinions and i want to know yours.

[2012solarboom]

I enjoy all your informative Vids. I have been applying my cologne the wrong way till NOW. so THANKS.

[drakendrones]

This may sound really lame..:-(...but I live in a very hot and humid place....so wearing a non-perfumed deodorant before applying a perfume is OK rite? Do you know any summery perfumed-deos for gals? I m using Dove(grapefruit n lemongrass) but getting sick of it! Thankyou for the luvly vdos!!

Your new subscriber!

[cformosa4]

hey! that doesn't sound lame at all. It is COMPLETELY cool to wear a deodorant/antiperspirant with your perfume :) i prefer to wear the deo that matches the fragrance but you dont have to. Unscented is the best :)

Dove is great.. i like all of their scents. Their Go Fresh line is really nice! :) Cucumber and Green Tea is my favourite one for girls :) Very light and wont interfere with your perfume

[beanladder]

@drakendrones i've got that dove deodarant and its really gross

[jperkins1991]

does one put cologne on without a shirt on, so it doesn't get on the clothing? also, what if i cant smell my fragrance after a couple hours? do others smell it?

[mikelamid]

@jperkins1991 yes man, others can smell it, because you're just used to the smell by that time.

[6BURG9]

@jperkins1991

never put cologne on your clothes. I think he mentioned it wrecks the dry down of your fragrance. Also when you apply cologne to "pulse points" on your body, the heat in your blood activates the fragrance and you actually make the scent unique with your pheromones, and we all know what those are good for ;)

Your nose gets used to the smell, if you can really smell yourself all day, imagine what others are smelling!

[blahhblahh2000]

what would you say for 'vera wang - princess' like wrists, chest and back of neck? i think its like a medium.. not too strong or light but ahh heelp me pleaseee!!

p.s. i love your vids, youre a star (:

[austindude15]

Spraying cologne on your wrist is a girl thing

[cformosa4]

says who?

[suba1234]

I disagree. I know plenty of men who spray it on their wrists.

[cformosa4]

I was saying that its good to spray your wrists.. gender doesn't matter . lol

[suba1234]

Yes, indeed... I was agreeing with you and correcting the other chap who thought it was effeminate:) Interesting point about the back of the neck. I didn't know that, have to try that soon. Peace.

[topkho]

keep up your videos!! can you please review allure edition blanche?

[renatoufo]

Hey thanks! nice advice.

[foxdrot]

[chippihh]

You're awsome man, keep it up!

[fakegodbass]

God Finally some one to know what is talking about.

Gracias Hermano it was very helpful

[blackwatertom328]

Thanks for the information Cubby. I have only recently become addicted to fragrences. I never was a fragrence type person till a year or so ago but I became addicted, unfortunatley for my wallet, to Creed colognes and now it is all I will buy unless it is Geir by Geir ness or Jean Paul Le Male. I have turned up my nose to anything else but Creed colognes they are just so perfect. Can you do a show on spotting fakes? There are so many fake Creeds on-line mostly Green Irish Tweed!!!

[smacpack532]

How many sprays for acqua di gio, diesel fuel for life and ralph lauren blue?

[amarmitra]

love d vid B)

[pragmatician]

Is that a good idea that you spray into the air little and then you walk through it: so it attaches to your body?

[cformosa4]

There is nothing wrong with doing that but Its better to spray it directly onto your skin because when you spray it in the air your will be wasting quite a lot of your expensive fragrance. The scent attaches to you better if you spray it directly on your skin as well :)

[Kevinkim7]

Dude your funny. "dont do that, who does that. Just dont do it." LOL

I LOVE YOUR VID MAKE MORE

[cformosa4]

hAHA thank you!!!

[LizzyDel]

thank you! this was so Helpful! the 2 feet rule is really a great tip. Now I won't be all worried about it. thank you again!

[Daniel371390]

yes i have done that before! i weared to much cause i wanted people to be able to smell the fragrance~ Where do you buy Dior? whats the price?

[brianmproductions]

thanks for the tips on applying! :P i needed some help haha

[russ5150]

ur a nice guy, thanks for the tips!!

[hooboy123]

hey man...gotta say the videos you've made are awesome!!! I've always kept a few bottles of my favorite cologne around but I was never quite sure how to wear it and make it last, but now I do!!! Thanks a ton!

[Nubtrof]

Pretty sure, I started watching your videos because you're so dang cute. Good advice, though thanks for the tips :).

[acdcrox]

what do you all think of polo black or double black?

[MisterKabbana]

Hey. Nice tips! =)

I really wanna know, what is your favorite Cologne at the moment?

Comment back =)

[kanakeira]

Thhhxxxx for your advicessss !!!!!! :):)

[Mancunian786]

thanks for this. really helpfull.

but i have a question...in this video are you talking about the edt (the spray,) or the aftershave.

thanks

[3plo]

I'd wear it on my upper chest but I think my skin is sensitive to the alcohol and i'd break out eek!

[cupracertified]

thanks!!!!

now i know!

[rb1779]

ahaha.. cool.. how to wear it.. wear it wherever you want to be cuddled or kissed at ..

[ZoxMan555]

wow there are so many views on this 1

[QuinceM1]

Don't wear fragrances in a theatre setting or I will be really mad. For obvious reasons.

[cformosa4]

There are certain places to wear fragrances, and certain places not to. You're very correct :P hehe

[billyX84]

Wow...u live in victoria?...I live in surrey, a ferry ride away! lol

[skillz0729]

Put on enough cologne so that only the person close to you can smell it :)

[lovemeLaura]

Hey, cologne and perfume are fine, just be careful. I have a form of toxic shock syndrome making some fragrances give me seizures and some could make me stop breathing. I am simply saying be careful and understand that not everyone can or will enjoy your scent.

[cformosa4]

ah, that is really interesting. Im really sorry you have such an allergy :(

i will research more about it.

[99dreamz]

Are the areas the same for women? I mean, the spraying on the back of the neck is something I haven't heard before and i was wondering if any women did that.

[cformosa4]

yup. They are the same for women too. Women can also spray behind their ears if their hair is too long and gets in the way for the back of the neck :)

[GrlLeastLikelyTo]

I always go for the back of the neck, especially when going out dancing. That area heats up when you dance and when fragrance heats up it will radiate, so you smell good while you're dancing.

But I just apply a slight spritz. NO PERFUME SHOWERS!

[alpha3939]

How does your mom feel about all this?

[redpompomhat]

how do you not have a 100,000+ views after getting featured?!

[cformosa4]

i dont know:(

[ninhjah]

Interesting, i never tried spraying cologne on my own wrists lol. Great video.

[Snowballpippin]

omg i have the same mirror in my room lolz so random anyway, nice vid..

[cformosa4]

hehe! ikea!! :P woot woot

[berje16]

There should be a code of ethics about NOT wearing cologne when you go to a good (even a not so good) restaurant. Even two feet away is too much in such situation. There should also be a rule for the taxi drivers (NO COLOGNE AT ALL): we pay for the ride, we should be able to keep our own smell free from bad cologne invasion... Question for the expert: what is your opinion about the fact that frangrances are gender oriented? Why should I limit my choice in the male section at the store?

[cformosa4]

Hey,

yeah i agree about taxi drivers,, and when you're working might not be a good idea to wear fragrances unless you work in an ok work environment to wear it. Um, well there are certain notes that are gender distinctive, but there are a lot of mens fragrances that i wouldn't be afraid to smell on a women, and vise versa.. but very few. You can wear whatever fragrance you want, if it works on you then you're good to go :)

[berje16]

How about the restaurant code of ethics? when you pay 100$ (more or less, does not matter) for a meal, you should be entitled to smell-odor privacy! Don't agree with you on the gender distinctive frangrances... let's put all the fragrances in the world on a continuum, from a to z, + do not impose any kind of publicity on any given product, and men and women would simply distribute themselves on the line, probably evenly... we are in the field of culture here... Talk to you man!

[berje16]

Hi! Cubby... I am berje16... I wrote to you twice in the past 12 hours. Interesting site you have. However, I think you should approach fragrances with a more sociological and anthropological point of view, if this is of any interest for you... Have you read the perfume? one of the best books ever written about smells and odors... don't miss my next message... I will give you one of my favorite tips about how to use cologne you don't want to wear anymore! berje16

[berje16]

My best cologne is actually considered as a women fragrance : biotherm - EAU VITAMINÉE - you should review it! (if youcan find it in Vancouver or Victoria

How to use cologne you don't want anymore? simple - just a few drops in a hot bath before you go to bed... gives you a sense of freedom you would not expect from bathing... don't add the candle, it's far too takkky! just turn all lights off and bathe! You will always want to repeat this experience!

Firendly yours, from Eastward! BerJe16

[58octopuslegion]

oh really?

[2pacOG]

cool man

[thoreau30]

Synthetic fragrance products are hurtful. Go to chemical companies such as Eastman or Shell, and type in fragrance in their search window. You'll find the same chemical solvents sold for fragrance as those in glues, plasticizers, paint, paint removers. Many are neurotoxins and hormone disrupters that will affect future generations. Fragrances compromise the air and build up in fat cells. Don't inflict them, please.

[derangedangelnero]

I spray once on each shoulder with my cologne, its not really too strong but it doesn't seem to fade throughout the day. But, I spray it on my clothes, usually. My friends all say I smell really good, and never too strongly. =] Although I know some people I should recommend watch this... lol

Good stuff =]

[blackspoty2]

ghey

[satan163]

oh really?

[satan163]

oh really?

[emodete]

Oo unot very hot but hot xD

[kimonji]

Learning something new everyday

[itwouldhavefit]

surprisingly informative. :D

[pincstuff]

is it the same areas for girls?

I find that the fragrance changes with your body heat and chemistry, and sometimes i prefer just to just spray on my clothing just to get the same scent straight out of the bottle...

great tips though! :)

[cformosa4]

The scent is created so that it mingles with your skin chemistry.. so the fragrance it distinct to your body :)

same spots for women. Sometimes women can spray beind their ears.

[zoixp]

Exactly, which means the idea of separate fragrances for men and women is just nonsense. For example, if you're a woman and you decide to apply a men's fragrance, it will eventually mix with your own unique scent and it will probably become just as feminine as you are. Same thing goes if you're a man trying a woman's fragrance. It may seem feminine or masculine while in the bottle, but once it hits your skin, other notes will be revealed.

[streamlinedata]

I know this is mainly a "show" for colognes... but what about perfumes? Like, women's perfumes? Do you know if the "rules" are different for "how to, where to, how much" for women's perfumes?

[cformosa4]

They are the same for women.

but some women spray behind their ears which is good :) i review womens fragrances too :)

[maxymyllyon]

Nerds rejoice! You can now PROPERLY apply deodorant and/or liquid colognes.

note - you don't need deodorant when you are planning on having a World of Warcraft marathon.

[cformosa4]

hahaha! i still do even when im playing WOW..hehe

[FuzzMasterX]

Finally, someone to help stinkers like me.

[cformosa4]

[orangecatfiona]

Well, you've certainly enlightened me as to the secret art of fragrance application! I worked in an aromatherapy store for a couple years and it's great to see you know your stuff! :D Where'd you learn all this stuff?

Ha ha haa @ the last comment. Gay or not, you rock, but I'm sure you'd get a lot of a admirers if you happened to come out.

[cformosa4]

i am glad. Thanks :) i love aromatherapy as well. maybe i should touch base on that in my show too :)

i am self taught really.. i read a lot of books, a whore for product knowledge, and love scent.. soo :) yea :p hehe

[elmoboy86]

shut, the, fuck, up.

[gotthecoolshoeshine]

thanks! i didnt know that you weren't supposed to rub your skin after putting on perfume, and i was wondering about room sprays, can you use them on yourself if it smells really good?

[cformosa4]

if its a room fresher, or spray.. you dont want to use it on your skin. .The chemicals may be too harsh for your skins and can cause some irritation. Also, they might not smell soo good on skin lol

[noodleguru]

So you talked about too much fragrance. Is there anything that can be done to backtrack from too much? Just run around without your shirt on for a while? xD

[italiaasoccer]

Awesome videoo!

Yeah! It bothers me when my friend keeps rubbing it on their hands and puts it on their neck!! Maybe if i show this to him, he'll believe me cuz he never did before :P!

:)

[cformosa4]

hahah, yeah show him this :P

[italiaasoccer]

promise!

[eminempwns]

[LemonStamp]

I'm puzzled now as to just how often you're supposed to apply fragrance -- with a heavier scent I'd assume once a day but what about lighter ones?

[Alexyvil]

Thanks for the useful tips! =)
