Scent is one of your most powerful non-verbal communicating tools. Unlike other features you don't have control over, such as your height or bone structure, you have 100% control over how you smell. You will have more opportunities and attract more people if you smell good. If you make any of these mistakes, you will repel and repulse instead. 99% of men are making these mistakes.
Using wrist pulse points. If you use your wrist as a pulse point, it's a wasted spritz of amazingness. It's the worst pulse point because it's away from people's faces. You want to ensure you're smelling incredible by keeping the fragrance up where it can be smelled. Use the upper part of your neck, behind your ear, and your upper chest.
Having others pick out your scent. Don't have somebody else pick out your fragrance. It's your job and your responsibility. If you let somebody pick out your fragrance, you may end up smelling like somebody else ... like her ex-boyfriend.
Spraying stinky feet. Do not attempt to spray fragrance on your smelly feet or in your stinky shoes. It will not mask the odor.
Wearing body spray. 11-year-old boys wear this stuff. It stinks!
Spritzing down pants. Do not spray your fragrance down your pants. It tastes bad and mixes poorly with your natural essence (off-putting and nasty). Use a ball powder.
Layering fragrances. Don't use a fragrant body wash, deodorant, or lotion with your fragrance. Instead, choose ones that are very mild in scent or unscented. You do not want to layer or combine fragrances because you want to smell like your fragrance.
Wearing the same fragrance daily. Switch it up and rotate it to keep smelling fresh and incredible. Many guys will find one scent, get compliments, and always keep it the same. People will get used to your smell, but changing it up weekly or monthly will keep people's noses guessing.
Walking through mist. So many guys spray the fragrance and then walk through it. Instead, spray your fragrance onto your pulse points about 3 to 5 inches away. By applying it through a mist, it's not concentrated and will not allow you to project.
Covering the entire body. Fragrance doesn't work that way. Spray it on pulse points so it's concentrated and projects longer, stronger, and better.
Spraying on clothing. The cologne will mess up your clothing, especially spraying it closely and repeatedly. The fabric will absorb it. Remember, you want the fragrance to heat up and project.
Wearing too much. Three squirts are what I recommend. Go for the neck and upper chest. Understand your fragrance's concentration level, whether it's a parfum, EPD, or EDT. Each is a different level of concentration. Reapply during the day if the scent is a little bit lighter.
Traveling with a big bottle. You don't want your fragrance to leak or get stolen. Use a refillable atomizer. - Jak na to + styl

where is that blue shirt from that you are wearing?
You should do a tutorial on deodorant and the kind or type to wear with cologne....maybe by telling us the brand. I have purchased many things from you and like every thing I ever bought. I only say this about the cologne and deodorant because it's very very difficult to find a good deodorant that last and doesn't stain.
Counter argument in defense of wrist.
A lot of early flirting while they get comfortable with you involves light touching so theyll get a whiff of the fragrance.
Maybe you brush their hair aside, lightly touch their collarbone or shoulder.
also if you are tall and they are short they will be closer to your arm height
Im trying that
Also when the alcohol evaporates(projects) the heat goes up to their nose.
Woah woah Stop. You must get Alpha M’s permission first. 😅
Not to mention, people can smell the cologne on your wrist when you shake hands. People tend to keep an arm's length distance when they first meet new people.
I remember when Alpha told us to spray the areas where he’s telling us not too 😵💫
When was that though? A few years ago? Things change all the time and opinions change. That’s just how things work. Alpha is just a man giving us his (informed) opinions. And opinions change over time. Something he said ten years ago won’t necessarily still apply today.
@@alexp601 I hope ur not buying no more of alpha m products or giving in to his “deals” u can’t believe everything on the internet just cus he says it works for him, yes many of his vids have advice are helpful for the youth or men who simply lack hygiene or proper care or routine, who didn’t have that opportunity from there own dad like my self. But at the same time you control your own life your prefer your own proper methods and different things work for different people not everyone has his quality in fact they might even be better. @alexp601 best things don’t come from little things to make u happy. As a man taking advice from another it is very helpful but again ain’t no one hating we all prefer different things. Some of us have the money to buy lugubrious items such as colon or even clothing but I’m not disagreeing with ur opinion or Alpha m it’s simply my “choice”.
If your really into alpha thats great I hope u follow ur own work out routine, your own meal plan, and stay focus on becoming a better version of your self each and ever day the way alpha m does I don’t know how long I’ve been off social media or CZcams but alpha was the best thing I ran into but after trying all his products I end up finding new products that work for me better even meal plans or the right exercise for my body time. @alexp601 yet again people don’t choose to limit there self you wouldn’t want to grow old in a job you hate wouldn’t that be a thought in mind. 🛐 no hate all love that’s how I was raised 💯
Yes he is bro
I remember when he got kinda mad at me because I told him he was advertising his scent as a copy of creed Aventus lol.
@@miguelcardenas2413 ha ha ha 😂 🤣
With such intense gesticulation, the wrists are the best place to smell
Nothing wrong with having a signature scent and saving the others for especial occasions.
Definitely bro
Correct!
But you yourself get used to your signatures scent, which means you can't smell it anymore.
calm down man !
I was gonna say the same thing, it's like having your coked up buddy trying to explain cologne 😂
Perhaps he shouldn't blast a line of coke before any of his videos?
Just saw your commercial on the Haiti vs Honduras CONCACEF game! As a tiege Hanley subscriber I can honestly say that I've enjoyed your product and am very happy to have been able to see you grow And for your success! Bravo!!!!
So have i
Love you buddy. Always quality and substantive tips
Like you buddy
@@TravisAndrews-lb1kk Tolerate you, buddy.
I would be Interested to see you and Antonio do a video on your fragrance collections
Yes he should bro
Thank you brother! Thank you, thank you, thank you! For most of this video, I’m there with you. I do however layer my fragrances from time to time -specific ones howeve). For example, in using the Commodity line with their Scent Space thinking, I can start with two spritzes of Bold on my neck pulse points, then go Expressive on either both sides my clavicle OR one on my upper chest (3 to 4 total), and if desired later on in my day after six hours or so and if I’m out at my bar or with friends, I refresh with a spritz once with the personal selection. That gives me a total of 4-5 spritzes in a 12 hour day. I really enjoy wearing their Milk, Book Velvet, or Gold scents. I also do the same with the Dedcool line, but only with their Milk and Xtra Milk fragrance.
I’m wearing the Parfums De Marly Percival today, love it! Scentbird is great!
That is a fact
A&F Fierce has always been a centerpiece to my collection. I've heard Percival is a next-level, elevated and more sophisticated Fierce. After having tried it, I agree. It's on my shortlist for next purchase. I recently bought Aventus and Prada LR Carbon, so it might be a little while, lol.
aaron: dont spray your wrists, because its not near anyone's face
also aaron: proceeds to talk for almost a minute with his hands up by his face/waving around in the air
definitely spray your wrists. especially if you are an active hand talker like aaron.
😂😂😂😂😂
I would add this tip. Never rub your fragrance after you spray it on your skin. This is the most common mistake that I see from newbies. They think that by rubbing it, they are somehow rubbing it in their skin for better distribution. When in fact, they are destroying the scent profile and the longevity of the fragrance.
Not true. A swipe to distribute the fragrance is not enough friction to breakdown the molecules.
This guys a banger 😂😂😂 won’t see me here again
Worth it to know.
Hey @alpha m, great video! have a beard, and I use beard oil as well...is it a no-no to use a beard oil and a cologne together? If so, do you recommend any unscented beard oils that won't interfere with the smell of my cologne?
Also--I think I'm going to give scent bird a try!!
Great points 👍🏼
Hell yeah it is
Hey Alpha, I love fougeres, do you have any recommendations? Thanks for the awesome tips btw 😁
So do i
I LOVE what you said about CHOOSING YOUR OWN FRAGRANCE. First of all, no one's body chemistry is the same, so different scents will always smell slightly different on different men. Second, everyone has a totally different personality, which a different fragrance will bring out. And third, if you don't even have enough confidence in yourself to be a "big boy" and make this decision yourself, perhaps you should remain at home playing video games in your parents' basement.
So I just got the Pete and Pedro deodorant and some of the fragrances. Do I wear the fragrance with the deodorant seeing as it has a strong smell too? I’m new to the fragrance game. Thanks!
Another video!!!!
Woooooo!!
Wooooooo for sure
I remember when my ex wife bought me cologne when we got together, she said it’s her favorite. And all I thought was, this is what every guy you’ve been with smells like. No thanks. I like my stuff. Partly because it’s not very popular honestly. I wanna stand out. Not smell like all the other guys at the bar or party.
Layton. Totally worth the money. Now I’ll disagree with layering. Arron’s Terence Hughes Carbon can be layered to enhance most other fragrances. Also spraying on your clothes…do it
Yes it is
I layer myself as well, but usually I go with Dedcool’s Milk and Xtra Milk, or with Commodity’s Scent Space philosophy. I’ve even as of this week, started layering with a two fresh based fragrances that gave some great compliments.
One of my favorite hacks - alpha m.
I just made my own eau de cologne from a 300 year old recipe. It wasn`t cheap, so I thought I`d see how an expert would apply it. This video and its` powerful delivery really put me straight on one or two things. Many Thanks from England
So this may be just me but while I will also use these new pulse points you showed us, I will continue to use the old ones (wrist, inner arm etc)....in the old areas I can smell the cologne always and personally if I don't smell the cologne on me (like when I used these new pulse points), I just feel like its not as effective.
I was eyeing Chris collins since Friday. Lol this definitely made me want to try it even more now. So I just ordered it.
Lots of energy dude, your neck veins freakin me out. Are you a drill sergeant?
I got elevated be watching alpha M
Man I feel called out, the two scents in the thumbnail are the only ones in my bathroom
Lol 2 of the best smelling compliment getting frags around. It’s okay to have them. I as well do too🥶 chick magnet
Alpha owns Dior too. It’s just an example of a popular brand lol you’re good I have the same one.
They are good scents, and 99% people like that it’s familiar.
@@MickeyNutz54why not the bathroom?
So have i
My Ears😢😢😮😮😮
The only Thing i unverstand is
Wuaaa wuaaa wuaa wuaaa😂 stop yelling dude😂
i got layton few days ago and have tried 2 sprays behind the ear and it feels plenty but youtube videos talk about like minimal 3 sprays most recomend 5 sprays..with that said how many sprays and wear would you recomend for layton?
Gino's love the body spray. Hahaha.
ALPHA THE GOAT
Hell yeah he is the goat 🐐
Sleazy salesman with a voice of a eunuch. Dude's got it all
For sure
I hear you brother but I like the wrist. When I make her laugh and her hair comes down a little I reach up and push her hair back. It’s a very intimate move and she ismells my cologne in that intimate moment. Now she smells that cologne anywhere on me and that intimate moment is forever locked into that scent.
Layton is one of my favorites too
I need to try it .!
Wow, screaming queen 👑
I spray all my jackets and hoodies with it. Idk how many times I’ve given them to women to wear because they’re cold and then get compliments on it. I’ve had times they wanted to wear them home when they leave.
Thank you
Anyone else remember that like 6 years ago, Alpha would advertise the wrist spray all the time?
Wonder what changed his mind and why he didn’t address that he use to advertise it?
Nope
Because it does make sense waste of a spray. If you only used 2 sprays both on the wrist unless it's something crazy strong like elixir no one including yourself is going to smell it
@@mianrowan Wrong.
This is all great advice but I’m ngl, I’m gonna always hit my shirts/hoodies with a spray or 2. So many girls have begged to keep certain shirts after hugging/laying on me
Poppa Alpha. What’s your thoughts on Polo Sexy? It’s the black bottle
I would like to know that too.!
Whoever came up with that Joey cameo is a genius! 😂😂😂😂
Yes he is
Molecule 01 and 02 are great for layering. Also layering a similar scented body oil and fragrance works. Double spraying a weak fragrance (layering it on itself) also works well to increase longevity and projection.
Also. Absolutely spray your wrists and inner elbow. It works for me at least.
Stop yelling!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
😂😂😂 He’s yelling advice like a man. Not like a scared little kid lol
He's not yelling. He's being confident and assertive. If a man yells, he is trying to be loud for NO reason.
Should he stay quiet
He does yell a little too much, but he's great.
You spray wherever u want to wear it, it's not wrong. Drop mic 🎤
It has now come to this.
Now these videos are based not on good sound advice but posted purely on which sponsor’s check cleared that week and where the plug is more than half the video. Just like the idiotic low T video a few days ago.
Facts
Absolutely always spray your wrist! 100 percent. Especially if you work in a office or will be attending meetings.
Why?
So people can smell your cologne when you slap their face 😂
Yes u should.!
@@TravisAndrews-lb1kk Should you spray on your arsehole? Just incase you fart in the office?
agree. when you move your hands it projects the frag all around you and it also doesnt punch you in the face like when you spray on your neck
He’s right you gotta put your cologne in rotation like some do their women, don’t over do it either
Hell yeah u do
Where you getting 2.7oz from because when I ordered I got .27 oz
Been away a little while but it's good to be back on your channel. Always love your contents
So have i .!
I'm so in agreement with not wearing the same fragrance everyday. Definitely a proponent of changing up.
Micro perfumes is the best for samples. You get 30% off or buy two get one free promos all the time. Scent bird doesn’t have their selection. Scent split is better selection wise for Niche but they are stingy AF.
The best for blind buying or purchasing a scent you are familiar with is Fragrancenet. I got a 4.2 oz tester of Layton Exclusif for $74. Compared to $480 for retail new it was a heckuva deal. You just have to check often because the great deals get scooped up quick.
The PDM fragrance he held up last is Kalan. Really good gourmand fragrance. Chicks like it.
You’re the goat
wrists and inner elbows ARE good points, especially for taller guys. and there isn’t anything wrong with having a signature scent. sure ppl will start to recognize it simply as how you always smell, but that doesn’t make it smell any less great
what shirt are you wearing sir?
well, i wear body spray like Old Spice Wolfthorn, right after shower, to prevent sweat of becoming stinky and boost fragrance from perfume.
Is this just one big Ad for kickbacks
Haven’t tried the Vaseline method…anyone else use it and recommend?
The problem with putting cologne on the neck and behind the ear is that the skin burns and skin goes dark.
Thanks, but I will continue to spray my wrists and inside elbow because I must be a rare breed of guy that doesn't keep his hands below the waist all day and never bends his arms to create heat...warming up the scent sprayed there...helping it project...smelling properly good.
Where to spray then
Parfums de Marly is beasty
Huh ?
Cool down man 😂😂😂
Lol this guy sound funny omg 😅
Powder those bad boys
“Ex boyfriend brad” always be settin me up for failure😭😭 thanks alpha, I look up to you fr where I never had a positive father role model
I SWEAR by Rooibos
Great video indeed. Thx bro for trying hepling us to do the right things.I truly appreciate it. Wishing you all Happiness prosperity and success. Have an amazing weekend. Cheers from Stockholm
And man's cologne should whisper, "I am here.", not shout, "Here I am!"
I want to get register scent bird but am in Africa Uganda so I can’t get it
I layer fragrances and it’s great
Damn I really love spraying my knees.
😂😂”Boutiki fragrances” …….. it’s called “niche fragrances” Alpha .. gotta luv this guy lol
Always spray on neck, behind ears and wrists
They have always been used and will continue to be used, because if you want your perfume to project those are the places that have palpitations for something when someone wants to see if another person is dead. touch those areas the neck, the inside of the elbow and the inside of the wrist to see if it is alive and for that same reason these are the areas that when you move will expand the aroma of your skin... if he says otherwise he is wrong since that is proven.
Just gonna say Layton has a body wash… 👀 PDM is niche quality with designer wearability. They are one of my favorite fragrance houses.
why are you always yelling at me hahahaha
My guy 📝 , Smart asf
Gentlemen, Nautica Voyage is an amazing scent for a guy on a budget. No need to use Tom Fords or Parfums de Marly to go to the grocery store. 6.7 oz bottle of Voyage is like $30, it’s a compliment monster. Its not as popular as sauvage or Eros, so you won’t smell like every other dude at the club. Also has great long lasting performance. Every dude should have voyage at least as an everyday wear to preserve their expensive fragrances.
This is the video i need very bad
I remember an episode where you said it was good to spray there.
What's up with that?
He changed his mind after a month of using the penis enlarger pump
@@damirblazevic4823 ahhh, thinking with the wrong head
Success!!! I'm doing it all right thanks to 8 years of Alpha viewing. Most importantly, my daughter tell me I smell fancy. Best compliment ever
Im trying that so a girl can tell me i smelll fancy.!
How can we make eyebrows grow
Take a shower
Can you stop yelling at me?
NO I CANT STOP YELLING, CAUSE THAT'S HOW AH TALK!
Spray your wrists and both sides of kneck- Just don't rub it in. I get compliments all the time. She will smell you most when youre intimate and there is nothing wrong with having a signature scent. I will often use BOD bodyspray on my chest and back after showering too.
I never knew the difference between the parfume and the others. I just thought it was another fancy way of saying colognes.
So have i
"Cologne", while a colloquial term for men's fragrance, is also a mixture.
Parfum - Concentration of perfume oils - 20-40%
Eau de Parfum - Concentration of perfume oils - 15-20%
Eau de Toilette - Concentration of perfume oils - 5-15%
Eau de Cologne - Concentration of perfume oils - 2-5%
Eau Fraîche - Concentration of perfume oils - 1-3%
I really appreciate your input and information in this video. Apart from you yelling literally every single word you were very informative. I assume the yelling was just to catch our attention so you are forgiven
Listen i have like 70 Fragrances and spaying on your shirt or hoodies is great especially when you layer
Spray your neck if you want it to age quickly. Correct answer: 1 behind each ear, 1 behind your neck (even hair). Need more? Spray shoulders (on clothes, more longevity) or collarbones (under the neck).
I don't want any of those artificial chemical scents on me... If I was to put a scent on me, it would be plant based from nature, like crunching pine needles and putting them in my pockets, and same with lemon grass, mint leaves or orange peels, but most of the time, I'm just natural, however, I do have a tiny mini-sprayer filled with rubbing alcohol I keep in my saddlebag.
Just selling products! I use versace dylan blue and eros!
So do i
You should add Parfums De Marly Percival and Giorgio Armani Aqua de Gio Profondo to that if you like that style i have all four and versace eros flame. All grrat variations of fresh style. Xerjoff 40 knots and Torino21 are supposed to be amazimg and similar. I'll grab them in late spring.
@@sinestre71 i where ck
Crook of the elbow is definitely a pulse point. Not sure why he would say otherwise...
Agreed on most but:
Spray on clothing, to make it more potent.
3 sprays is never enough as most frag are weaker than you think they are.
Others should be able to smell you, get feedback fr friends on projection & longevity when trying a new frag.
Bonus tip: layer 2 similar frag to get a new smell that will keep ppl guessing
I definitely remember that
Others should not be able smell you. Perfume/cologne is to be discovered, not announced. Your S.O should discover it when they get close, not the entire room when you enter...
@@denyingdestruction Why do you have to take it to the extreme? People should be to smell you from approximately a feet, I never said choke the entire room.
@bala-mt5hs yeah still too much
@@denyingdestruction okay
But that's not what Jeremy Fragrance says lol hahaha 😅
What does he say lmao 🤣 😂
Powder those bad boys😅
Spray some behind your ears when you’re going out. If you re talking to a woman (or man) , they will be mainly talking near your ears , because of the loud music.
If u want compliments wear office by Jeremy Fragrance
Yes sir
Dude, find a spray that will help you chill a bit! 😂😂😂
I where cologne to much sometimes apha m.!
You need to switch to decaff
Yes he does
