The ONLY 8 Colognes You Need to Smell Amazing (Beginner Friendly)
About this video
Centeno teaches beginners how to build a versatile fragrance collection by categorizing must-own fragrances into groups: aquatics, woods, blues, gourmands, citrus, earthy scents, spicy, and orientals. He recommends specific fragrances at various price points within each category and explains the characteristics and versatility of each scent profile.
Key takeaways
- Centeno recommends organizing fragrances by scent family (aquatic, woody, citrus, gourmand, etc.) to build a versatile collection of less than 10 fragrances as a beginner
- Centeno argues that wood fragrances are universally appealing and associated with masculinity, making them an excellent starting point for new fragrance buyers
- Centeno suggests gourmand fragrances—which smell like edible items—are particularly effective at attracting romantic interest when worn by men
- Centeno emphasizes that price range varies significantly within each category, from budget-friendly options like Cool Water to luxury choices like Creed fragrances
