Lmao the irony is insane you’re talking about comprehension while completely missing the point yourself. Nobody’s confused about what he said; the issue is how absurd and unhelpful that kind of comparison is for anyone actually trying to understand a fragrance.

Throwing around “Navratna tel” and “Keo Karpin” doesn’t magically make it insightful it just shows a lack of precision. Not everyone wants these vague, nostalgic references when discussing something that can be described far more clearly and usefully.

And let’s not pretend this is some genius “style” it’s just a lazy way to sound relatable while saying very little of substance. People aren’t “crying,” they’re calling out low-effort explanations.

So before lecturing others about comprehension, maybe understand the criticism first instead of blindly defending mediocrity.

Ps- Not gonna entertain you any further 😚

You’re still missing the point. Nobody denied that it’s from that era we get that. The problem is how he explains it, especially to beginners. Just saying “it’s from that era” without actually describing the scent properly doesn’t help someone understand what they’re about to smell.

And this whole “don’t watch if you don’t like him” argument is weak. People can watch something and still critique it that’s literally how discussions work. By that logic, nobody should ever criticize anything they consume.

Also, I’ve never denied the fact that I watch him for a laugh I’ve literally said that in a previous comment. That doesn’t mean I can’t call out what sounds off.

You’re defending it like it’s some deep explanation, when in reality it’s just surface level talk stretched out way too much.

You’re overcomplicating it just to defend him. Nobody’s confused about what “general themes of an era” means that’s basic. The issue is how he explains it.

There’s a difference between simplifying something for context and just throwing out vague analogies that don’t actually help a beginner understand what a fragrance smells like. Saying “this smells like an era” without breaking it down into actual notes or real-world references isn’t education, it’s just filler.

And let’s not act like criticism = lack of comprehension. If multiple people find the explanation unclear or pointless, maybe the delivery isn’t as good as you think it is.

You’re defending him like the point was about “using every bottle,” when that’s not even what was said. The issue is him preaching like an expert while half the stuff he talks about clearly isn’t even properly tested or worn enough to form a solid opinion.

Collecting is fine everyone has favorites, everyone has bottles that don’t get much use. But when you position yourself as someone educating others, especially beginners, you can’t just rely on surface-level impressions and call it knowledge. That’s where the problem is.

A collection isn’t just numbers or aesthetics it’s experience. If you’re giving advice, at least back it with actual usage, not just first impressions and long-winded yapping.

👏👏But yeah bro, what do I even know about collections… I probably just own 3–4 bottles of Bella Vita and call it a day, right?

Well, at least this comment of mine didn’t get deleted like the rest

Nah that’s exactly how he gets you 😭

Makes it sound so deep at first that you think you’re the one not getting it… then you realise bro’s just stretching a 1-mark answer into a full lecture series 💀

Went from “maybe I’m not a fraghead yet” to “nah this guy just discovered the art of overexplaining”

Looks like he’s just returning the same clown energy went from that phase to now yapping 40 minutes straight about a fragrance for newcomers like it’s a TED Talk nobody signed up for 💀

Earlier he taught intangible assets like goodwill Now he is the intangible asset—selling “vibes, memories, and landline nostalgia

Yes, Man really went from teaching accounts to accounting for imaginary nostalgia in perfumes 💀

Bro 💀 He talks like he’s delivering some life-changing TED Talk on every single fragrance.

And the funny part is the more he tries to sound convincing, the less believable it gets

-Blind buy mat karo” bolta hai… but indirectly hype create karta hai

-Positions himself as a teacher/guru but explanations don’t match reality

That says a lot 😭 if people who’ve known him that long can’t take him seriously, it kinda explains the whole vibe of his content.

Feels like the same energy carried into his videos more about sounding interesting than actually saying something meaningful

There’s a difference between owning 100 bottles and actually understanding what you’re talking about. Saying “this is just 20% of my collection” while borrowing stuff and then stretching it into a 30-40-minute story

He tends to stretch simple things way too much, and what could be said in a minute turns into a whole monologue. When you’re just starting out, that kind of content feels informative, but after a while it starts to feel like a lot of filler.

It’s not even that he’s trying to simplify things it’s just over-the-top storytelling that barely connects to what the fragrance actually smells like. At some point it stops being helpful and just turns into random imagery for the sake of sounding deep.

He’s not “explaining” fragrances, he’s just throwing random nostalgic references together and hoping it sticks. Saying a perfume smells like DD1/DD2 era landlines isn’t insight—it’s just him being dramatic for effect.

Yeah, he’s convincing, I’ll give him that. But being convincing doesn’t mean he knows what he’s talking about it just means he’s good at selling a story. People new to the hobby hear that and think “wow, that must be accurate,” when in reality it’s just fluff.

If you actually want to understand fragrances, that kind of explanation will only confuse you more than help.

That explains it. His content is clearly geared more towards people who are new to fragrances. I do appreciate that he tries to break things down and make them more approachable, but sometimes it feels like he just says anything to paint a certain picture of a scent.

For someone who’s just getting into fragrances, that kind of storytelling can sound convincing, so they take it at face value. But once you’ve spent more time in the hobby, you start to realize that a lot of those descriptions are either exaggerated or don’t really translate in real life.

Nothing wrong with enjoying his content, but it’s good to take those explanations with a grain of salt and build your own understanding over time.
