2 years ago Ashton was on the show “Hoarders.” They cleaned and organized the place after finding him sleeping under a blanket of 200 frags. He was sniffing and crying. He’s come a long way.

So assuming you get roughly 10 sprays per ml on average, and that each wearing averages 3 sprays, that means that a 100ml bottle will give 300 wearings. I know not all Ashs bottles are 100ml, but let’s say they are for ease of calculation. 2000x300 = 600,000 wearings. Assuming you wear one fragrance a day, that’s 600,000/ 365. Meaning Ash’s collection should last him roughly 1644 years. 😦 Now I don’t know if Ash has kids, but again purely for arguments sake let’s say he had a kid at 30 and so does all his offspring, and that he lives to roughly 85, as do all his offspring. That means the collection changes hands roughly every 55 years. That means you should get about 30 generations down before you finally run out. So basically Ash’s Great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandkids are going to smell like Jet Black Enigma. 😂 TL;DR - If Ash wore one fragrance a day starting back in the year 378 AD, he would finally be reaching the end of his last bottle today. (I’m not going to act like the maths is perfect here, take it with a very, very generous heaping of salt. It does help put the size of the collection in perspective though.)

When I started, I made a few collection rules. #1 No more than 20 fragrances at a time (I'm currently at 12). #2 I have five forever fragrances and those are the ONLY ones I can repeat buy. #3 I have to wear each fragrance at least once a month. #4 When I retire, I'll only have six...one fragrance for each season, a fragrance for when I go out with friends (or on a date with my wife), and one special occasion fragrance. Thing is, a 100ml bottle, if sprayed 5 times when applying, will take between 250 and 300 days to go through it. At 12 fragrances, I have enough for roughly 9-10 years.

Dior Homme 2020 extremely underrated, I get compliments every time I wear it. Goes nice with any outfit/occasion.

I have 250 bottles and I drive myself crazy picking a scent sometimes. I can't imagine 2000 bottles. My favorite scents right now are Layton, Naxos, Y EDP, Sauvage Elixir, 2nd Soul, Carlisle, Le Male Le Parfum, and Cedrat Boise.

I'm glad you have over 2,000 because when I own around 300 I can tell people I don't have a problem.

I have been a collector and perfume guy for years, but I also keep it realistic and never own more than 10 or so. yes, I sell a lot. owning more than 10 means either - you have to neglect your favs because of all the other stuff - or, which is worse, you wear your less favorite scents so they don’t just rot on the shelf, and miss your favorites meanwhile

Givenchy Gentleman EDT Intense is a very underrated fragrance! That cypress note works so well with the iris and tonka bean! Love it!

As someone just getting into fragrances, I’ve found myself wondering how someone wears all of these. Glad to see this as a topic.

I work at the fragrance outlet and I actually love to introduce your fragrance to my customers. I believe I sold around 8 ,cant wait to receive jet black enigma and terra nova . Its so cool that your fragrance is in fragrance retailers I've also been watching you for 2 years or more. i know I have a lot of knowledge on niche n i also like to do my research just because i work at a fragrance store i also get to meet a lot of people. Much love from livermore fragrance outlet -Daniel Escobar

I have 68 fragrances in my collection. I love my Prada..L'Homme, L'Homme Intense, L'Homme L'eau, Amber, Amber Intense, and LR Black. I never get tired of them...

I have about 230 fragrances - not including back up bottles. There are a few that I wear more than others: 1) Prada L'Homme 2) Dior Homme 2020 3) Rochas L'Homme 4) Parfums de Marly Darley 5) Drakkar Noir 6) Guerlain Ideal L'Intense 7) Mancera Cedrat Boise Intense 8) Prada Luna Rossa Sport 9) Cartier Declaration EDT 10) Acqua Di Gio Profumo 11) Dunhill Icon 12) Lalique L'insoumis 13) Halloween Man Shot 14) Dior Homme Cologne If I had to start all over again, those would be part of my starter kit.

I've got 50 fragrances in my collection. 10 - 15 I wear regularly. About 80% are designer, 20% niche. Favourites include Creed Aventus, Dior Homme Intense, Armani Acqua di Gio Profumo and Profondo, Hugo Boss The Scent Private Accord, Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male and Le Male Le Parfum, Versace Dylan Blue, Dolce Gabbana Light Blue Forever and The One Intense, and Xerjoff Naxos. The most expensive, and probably the strongest one, in my collection is Amouage Interlude 53, but I never really get to wear that one.

You got to do a fragrance collection video so we all can see how crazy your collection is lol

I have 3 of them lol my absolute favorite is Prada L’homme it has given me the most compliments.

You should do a room tour and show us your set up and all of your fragrances :)

You've become my favourite fragrance reviewer. And it's not even close! Thanks mate for all your passion!

Profondo is one of my top choice for summer, this list make me want it even more

I have 235 fragrances and over a hundred decants And I can also say that I wear a different fragrance everyday and when I do get around to going back and wearing something that I wore before it's probably going to be about 6 months before I go back to wearing one I just have so many if I can imagine with 2000 😱

I am very close to 200 (thanks to decanting) and this is my current autumn/winter list: 1. Dior Fahrenheit EDT - my signature 2. Dior Tobacolor - miles above Red Tobacco 3. Bohoboco Wet Cherry - love this cherry! 4. Rasasi LaYuqawam or Tuscan Leather - depending on which day you ask 5. Ultra Male - you know this one for sure :D 6. DHI - surely you know this one too :D 7. Chopard Nuit des Rois 8. Mancera Cedrat Boise

Hi Ash! I’m truly happy that your fragrance finally hit my local outlet. I stopped by perfumania to see what’s poppin, and they put me onto your terra Nova and I must say. This scent is so versatile and unique that I might need to get a 2nd bottle (which I don’t usually do unless I really really like the fragrance).

Great video! The crippling choices 😂. That Givenchy Gentleman Intense edt is fantastic. 😍. An incredibly attractive scent with depth,I love the current line but this one I wear the most,because of the versatility. A signature worthy scent! Prada Black 🖤

Hey Ash. Thanks for great content you doing for us. Appreciate it. Started collecting 14 months ago and because I saw all these shelves behind you I have over 200 bottles now. Thank you for this not cheap journey) I have couple ideas for future videos on topics I really want to hear from you. 1. What fragrances were you wearing for last 10 days (if you can remember them)? 2. Show us 10 (maybe more) your most used fragrances by amount juice left in a bottle (almost empty or you have to buy another one). I would really like to see it some day in a future. Cheers!

I wear PDM Carlisle 2 to 3 times per week (usually when I'm not going anywhere, lol). Heavy rotation on the other days for me is Y EDP, Moustache EDP by Rochas, Euphoria EDT, PDM Sedley, Phantom EDT, and Replica Jazz Club. I have 15 fragrances and I'm almost content with what I have (one day, might have to add those two Clive Christian scents I love...), but I also buy sampler sets on the cheap from Belk, Sephora and Macy's and sometimes go to the mall scentless to hit a new scent or two on the skin to see if I really like it.

Gentleman EDT Intense is my Signiture Scent. The dark rich sweet Woody note is something that ive been looking for in a fregrence since i started looking for my Signiture Scent. Its addictive. The way i would describe it is high end classy wood thats a bit fresh while still being mysterious and alluring. Gives me the image of being dressed up with a white button down shirt while sitting in a high end office made out of wood.

1. Givenchy Reserve privee 2. Savauage 3. Amouage Epic 4. Olive botique leather these are some out of 20 scents i use frequently

I only have 9 full bottles and around 10 decants of other perfumes that I like and will only wear on special occassions (includes Dior Sauvage Elixir and Creed Aventus). I only buy full bottles of perfumes that I like the most and will definitely wear most of the time. 1. ADG Profumo 2. ADG Profondo 3. D&G The One EDP 4. YSL Y EDP 5. Armani Code Absolu 6. EA Stronger With You Absolutely 7. YSL La Nuit De L'Homme 8. JPG Le Male Le Parfum 9. Montblanc Explorer

If you think about it - Ash has about 2000 bottles right - let’s say an average of 50 dollars per bottle. 2000 x 50 = 100,000 dollars on aftershaves. And one person could never get through that many bottles so most of them will go unused. That’s insane! 😂 still love the videos though! Haha

I have a bottle of Gentleman Intense that I ignored for a while. Coincidentally I wore it the other day and loved it… then you dropped this video. It’s a solid scent and the dry down is the prize.

I don't get the Prada LR Black hype. It is way too powder-y, at least on my skin. It gets better on drydown, but I wouldn't wear it unless i want to smell like my grandma.

I’m with you on ADG Profondo. I probably wear that more than any other in my collection. So easy to wear. YSL Y EDP is still my biggest compliment puller.

Hey Ash, could you show us all your collection, like not specifically every fragrance but just to see all of them. I think that would be sick! Great vid, peace!

I really like the background videos what are shown by presenting the notes.

I know it sounds crazy, but I like to wear the platinum egoiste by Chanel and love it… people say it’s spicy but I don’t see it.. also my all time favorite even though my wife hates it and I’ve never gotten a compliment from it is BDC EDT.. I put pretty sizeable dent in my profondo and aventus.. so I guess I’m not too unique from the crowd. Those all are pretty common but it’s what I like. Great video ✌🏻

I own close to 500 and my top 10 are in no specific order 1. Gucci Guilty Parfum 2. Ralph Lauren Purple Label 3. YSL L'homme Original 4. Aqua Di Gio Parfum 5. Ralph's Club Parfum 6. JPG Ultra Male 7. Dior Homme Intense 8. Tommy Hilfiger impact Intense 9. Prada red sport 10. Prada L'homme Leau

I love to wear Hugo Boss the scent le parfum, and also Aqua de Gio profondo

My Y EDP got negative reactions in the beginning, yet it seems to be getting better as I'm continuing to get compliments from it as I did yesterday as it's getting more fruity and sweet as I use my bottle.

Light blue forever is my go to 3 to 4 times a week....awesome scent.

i go for Ultramale or Eros at night or cold days and my mom got me a L'eau Kenzo Pour Homme EDT for Christmas which i currently use in the daytime or when it's hot since it smells pretty fresh

I have about 20 different perfumes, and this is my top 6 1. Xerjoff naxos 2. YSL Y edp 3. Creed Aventus 4. Aqua di parma oud and spice 5. AGD Profondo 6. Nautica Voyage

I got a Luna Rossa Black at Allbeauty just after Christmas for 58 gbp. Still being sold in the UK, just gotta catch it at the right time. 50ml for what it's worth.

Can you do list of your niche fragrances that you wear the most?

I just got into frags in April, and I currently have 32 in my collection

Profondo is the best summer scent and gets major compliments

I just bought a 5ml sample of Escada Casual Friday. All I'm going to say is that my prior belief that mauboussin homme is a banger of an alternative was confirmed. In fact, the opening of mauboussin is better, and the dry downs are different. Casual Friday smells like its mauboussin remade by Prada. But here in the UK, mauboussin can be had for £20. Also, 1 million lucky isn't in my top 10 but i got 200ml for £45 so it's part of my collection regardless

Great video, I'd love to see the same idea but niche! I'm 40 bottles into collecting and just starting with niche fragrances

Chanel Platinum Egoiste and Terre d‘Hermes

Thats why I think 15ml and 30ml sized bottles of fragrances are great for a collection. Less total volume, but more options.

I have over 100, Profondo is my “signature”

I love Ash, and I am one of the lucky few people who watches him without buying too many fragrances. And I really do wear all my fragrances and i have about 40 collected over 15 years. So think seriously. If you had all these incredible rare scents, would you really wear all these mainstream fragrances, as he claims? When you could walk about in the world being unique and incredible, and impressing your friends? Also, he reviews new scents every week, and he has to wear these non stop. So how is he wearing these regularly? Haha. This list seems like it should be called "popular, well known scents, that people are likely to buy using my code so that I get a payout ". Stay sane guys. Affiliate work is a sales job. He is a professional salesman. Don't forget that, and enjoy the content with your eyes wide open. :)

I own four of the current 5 in the Givenchy Gentleman line and wear them all, too. My current favorite line by far. Can't wait to smell the new Gentleman Society.

Great video with some great choices in there and I enjoyed it and have a blessed day

I have over 100 bottles ,but my grab and go fragrances are dylan blue, Versace pour homme , polo blue hold edition and dolce and Gabbana light blue intense

No niche in the list?…My popular frags that I wear frequently….Moss Cologne by Bortnikoff, Aventus, EROLFA, Ormonde Man, Prada Carbon, Sir Winston by Bortnikoff, Dionisio, Roja Bahrain, Xerjoff Nio, Aqua Di Gio Profumo (actually I haven’t tried Profundo yet)

DG Forever fans, please wear it in the colder months. It’s the BEST in the cold. Trust. No Body odor notes during the cold

Got Eau Givree for Christmas. I'm in love with it. It's so clean and fresh and lovely. To me it smells like a photorealistic grapefruit in the opening. I've had to calm myself down wearing it because I've already made a dent in the 100ml bottle and we're still in winter.

Out of 50+ fragrances, I usually only wear Xerjoff Naxos and PDM Carlisle

Hey ash love your channel. Have you made a video with your best of the best picks for fragrance categories. Like best blue scent, best green, ect? If not would looove to see one

I'm nowhere near where you're at, Ash but I do have a decent amount of bottles to my collection. The ones that will continue to wear and will forever be in rotation are: 1. Bvlgari Pour Homme 2. Drakkar Noir 3. Armani Eau Pour Homme- Discontinued but still have two full bottles as a backup 4. Dior Homme Intense & Parfum 5. PdM Layton 6. Le Labo Bergamote 22 7. Creed Erolfa 8. Xeroff Naxos 9. Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche 10. TF Oud Wood

I love that the time stamp say "Awkward Joe" 😂😂

Ash, what're you doing putting Y edp there instead of Blue Ridge? I like BR more. Btw, just got my original bottle of Jet Black Enigma... WOW! THIS, West Loop, and Terra Nova are amazing, but the Jet Black Enigma drydown is EXQUISITE. Congrats!

I love the cardamon in Le Make Le Parfum. I got it for the vanilla, but I love it and wear for the cardamon.

With Ash being my favorite reviewer, it's no coincidence that I own all 10 (with the exception of the Terre d'Hermes.). I still have my 200ml Eau Tres Fraiche that's not going anywhere. I own 200+ full bottles and I challenge myself to rotate them as much as possible, but anyone that has a large collection knows how that could go. After a while you just have to go back to those favorites, sometimes just to avoid taking half hour to choose 1 on a morning.

1 Million Lucky, Missoni Wave, Acqua Di Gio Profumo, & YSL EDP. Just love them....

I never get tired of greenley, or ozone by ATH, i also love Bleu De chanel parfum and Givenchy Gentleman Privee > Dior Homme Intense.

Ash. You should make a collection where you do where the fragrances and the ones you don’t.

1 Guerlain Homme EdT 2 CK Eternity EdT 3 Davidoff Cool Water EdT 4 Terre D'Hermes (the entire line) 5 Salvatore Ferragamo Aqcua Essenziale I have a lot of others that I really enjoy but I tend to reach for these most often.

American Eagle 1977 Intense is my favorite so far, just got into this hobby tho and am looking forward to getting to familiarize myself with different fragrances

Can you do a top 5 fragrance KZfaqr list and why you like them

I am not a collector of anything and have no interest in having 800, 1000 or 2000 bottles but I think it’s cool that people do if that’s your thing. I have 10 all year round fragrances. 10 summer fragrances. And 10 winter fragrances. When it is warm, I have 20 things to choose from and when it’s cold I have 20 things to choose from. Yes things do come out of the 10 from time to time when I find something I like more but I have to take something out. It limits me having 1000 bottles and I actually wear the stuff that I buy (I do have 500 decants as I like to smell stuff)

Prada black has clearly not been discontinued. It's still constantly selling out and being restocked, in every sephora and hudsons Bay/Nordstrom in my city. It's very easy to get.

I will never own more than 10 at a time

I personally like GG EDT Intense the most out of everything else in the line.

Hey Ash maybe consider making a discord server. its a great way to maintain a community, share information and communicate with your subcribers. i would definitely join.

Do a niche video in the same style!

I have 20 something and I'm done now, for reference here's my collection: Montblanc Explorer 200ml Gucci Guilty EdP 200ml Pasha de Cartier Parfum 100ml Terre d'Hermès Eau Intense Vétiver EdP 50ml JPG - Le Mâle EdT 60ml Viktor & Rolf - Spicebomb Extreme 100ml Carolina Herrera - Bad Boy EdT YSL - Y parfum Prada Luna Rossa Black EDP Prada Luna Rossa Ocean EdT Dior Homme 2020 Dior Sauvage EdP Issey Miyake l'eau d'Issey intense D&G The One Swiss Arabian Shaghaf Oud Just Jack Italian Leather Just Jack Neroli Portofino Just Jack Oud Oak Just Jack Tobacco Leaf Givenchy Gentleman Réserve Privée Versace Eros EdT Versace Man Eau Fraîche

One of my favourites I always get compliments from is a givenchy one unfortunately for everyone i never tell people what fragrance it is 😊

I own around 70 fragrances. The ones I wear the most are Hugo Boss Reversed, Luna Rossa Sport, Lattafa Rave Now, Dior Sauvage Elixir

I agree, I have been wearing the heck outta some le male le parfum. I picked up the one luminous night at the same time. I like that one a lot as well, but le parfum is just so addictive!!

Wow, your collection obviously has mine crushed to a fine dust Ash, but nevertheless… I’m somwhere north of 100 fragrances at the moment, and we share both Light Blue Forever and Le Male Le Parfum as ones getting continuous use. They will both always have at least one backup bottle for me. I will definitely check out the ones one your list I’m not already familiar with. Love the idea for the video and would love to see more like this, awesome idea to give a deeper look into what a dude with 2000+ fragrences to choose from actually wears regularly. As always, love your work, 1st class stuff man.👍

Hi! Recently through your videos and various tik toks i've taken a more deeper interest in mens fragrances. I consider myself a minimalist so wanting/having a big collection is not practical for me. If you had to pick 5 colognes for different types of occasions/seasons what would they be? Many Thanks and appreciate the content!

I think my most worn in 2022 was Office for men. It’s just such an easy dumb reach. For when I’m going to the office in particular. I’m reaching for DHP a lot this winter.

You have over 2000 fragrances. I’m very surprised you didn’t have many niche ones you use on a regular basis

armani code absolu pulls me so many compliments! im glad i got a 6oz

Just hit the like button before i even started the video 😁 Title got me straight away

Stronger With You Absolutely...I am on the East Coast and I can not find this ANYWHERE here in Canada....any suggestions?

Cheers for the timestamps, much appreciated.

Great job! Thank you very much! Might I ask you what the difference is between Profondo and Profumo?

Jeez. And I'm beatin myself up for buying #80. Thanks man! I feel a little better now! 👍

can you please help me with that. i got bentley azure and loved it, and i have tried profoundo and thought it's smells close to it, can you compare these two and clear to us the difference ?.

Dior Homme Cologne, Dior Homme Sport 2012, Sauvage EDT, Gentleman EDP Boisée, L'Homme Ideal EDT, Prada L'Homme, Polo Cologne Intense, Mugler Pure Malt, L'Homme Ultime and Aventus.

I really love that YSL Y edp!! But what about the “le parfum” version? People says it’s more a going out fragrance, but is it usual for school/office too? People are very positive about it. So it gets more compliments than the EDP. What do you guys think? Keep the EDP or le parfum

thumbs up if you wanna see a showcase of his 2000 fragrances

Out of my entire collection Le Male vintage formula is ny favorite of all time

What's the shelf life of a fragrance....assuming temperature is stable/room temp and not in direct sunlight?

I'm up to 150 !! I'm still going through them all. I will be experimenting with layering this year!!!

Out of this list for me. YSL Y EDP, Missoni Wave and ADG Profondo. I smelled Le Male Le Parfum in store and I have to get that too.

Out of my 35 fragrances, these gems are worn 85% of the time. 1) YSL LNDL Bleu Electrique 2) CH Men Prive 3) Aqua di Parma Oud D&G The One Luminous Night (my newest splurge) has been in recent rotation.

Not only does Missoni Wave have a magnetic cap, the atomizer is also great. And, of course, the scent is great.

Either the title is misleading or i forwarded alot and didn't hear you say "designers only" but it is mind boggling to me that you have 2000+ fragrances and wear these designers? I mean where are the Rojas, Amouages, Creeds, Mfks, Tom fords so on etc? Maybe rewrite the title to include designers only. Was honestly expecting unheard of exotic sounding frags from niche brands houses that do fragrances and nothing else.
