Buy These 3 Fragrances... Quit The Game
About this video
Centeno presents a comprehensive fragrance guide for men, arguing that three fragrances are sufficient for most men: one for work, one for going out at night, and one for weekends. He recommends specific fragrances for each occasion and provides alternatives across various price points, while also discussing the rationale behind building a practical fragrance collection based on lifestyle needs.
Key takeaways
- Centeno argues that men need only three fragrances—one for work (clean and understated like Tom Ford’s Grey Védivère Parfum), one for going out (projecting and attractive like Dior’s Sauvage Elixir), and one versatile weekend fragrance (mass-appealing like YSL’s Myself)
- Centeno recommends work fragrances should sit close to the skin and be inoffensive, suggesting vetiver-based scents have a century-long association with masculine professionalism across various industries
- Centeno cautions against blind buying deeper, heavier fragrances like gourmands (with food notes), recommending men test fragrances before committing to full bottles, and suggests using fragrance sampling services
