This is so amusing, and yet I'm not able to categorize it. Ostensibly, it's hunky European "Jeremy", giving his heart-felt perfume reviews, but it's not really just about that-- it's performance art! Jeremy is so exuberant, and nothing if not knowledgeable.
At first I pondered if it was a giant hoax-- but no, he earnestly gives extremely knowing reviews. He must be what they call in the industry, "a nose". Anybody who can enthuse about the "tomato leaf vibe" in a perfume review, is pretty much into the weeds!
Here he discusses the best women's perfumes for winter.

I'm sure that he must have a place in the youtube beauty community but fragrance is something that I don't like to take advice for so I don't think I'll be watching his videos (although I did peek at this one a bit).
Fragrance is personal and I want to browse stores and smell and discover fragrances for myself. Most fragrances I don't actually like very much either.
The only two fragrances that I currently own and use are by Tocca:
Tocca Stella and Tocca Bianca.

I agree, @TY-- I won't be picking up on his suggestions any time soon either. I meant the title of the thread a little bit sardonically.
It's more the video that I got a kick out of, the quirkiness of it-- his confidence and that over-the-top expressivenes in making his choices. I do love to hear what fragrance "gurus" or "noses" have to say, since I've loved scent since I was very young.
My all time faves would be probably "L'heure Bleue" by Guerlain, "Nuit de Noel" by Caron, and Yves Saint Laurent "Rive Gauche", if I had to narrow it down. But these days? I just don't wear expensive scents-- I make a game of finding inexpensive ones, that still smell good. I'm sure most of Jeremy's choices are out of my league....

@Oznell Your review was so entertaining that i had to see what this performance art was about. So much fun, thank you for this joyful romp in the weeds!

Ha, ha, delighted that you had fun with it, @phoenixbrd!

One more entertaining (to me at least) short snippet. Here Jeremy has invited his pal, 'Johanna', to sample his picks of top 5 frangrances for men. The contrast in their styles is funny-- affable Johanna is as terse and decisive in her reactions to the fragrances, as Jeremy is verbose and expressively fulsome!

Jeremy looks like a suave soap opera actor!

Ha, ha, @TY, that's such a good comparison! And there's a faint something that reminds me of sort of a twenty-first century, short-haired version of "Fabio"!! He has the same kind of good humor, for sure.

Off topic, @Oznell, but I was watching the various wig women on YouTube when I noticed that there were offers of 30% off many brands. I finally held my nose and ordered the RW Winner style. I went totally conservative and safe😏
I’m mainly concerned about wanting to scratch at it nonstop. Or that it pops off my head at an embarrassing moment😜

Oh, I'm now going to have to look up "Winner", @tansy. I'm thinking it's a cute, short boy cut?
ETA-- OK, I'm back, after checking out "Winner". Love the way Magdaline Williams styled it-- it's not "safe" as she did it, but playful and spiky:

Also like the way Haley shows the various possibilities and colors:

Why do you think it will itch or pop off? Anyway, there are solutions for those exigencies, should they occur.
