00:00One of these fragrances is worth $3,000.
00:03Can you tell me which one?
00:06I'm going to do a sniff test and I'm going to see if I can pick a $3,000 fragrance.
00:10I know it's not the $3,000 fragrance.
00:11I'm going to say it's this one.
00:15I'm going to go here for now, but I've got to try this next one.
00:18I know that this is the $3,000 fragrance because frankincense.
00:23It's such a unique smell.
00:25It is a niche smell because it's expensive, it's luxurious,
00:28and it's from like the Jesus period.
00:31Hopefully I'm right.
00:31I think I know I'm right.
00:33Did I get it right?
00:35So what makes this a $3,000 fragrance?
00:38Well, you find a better looking fragrance bowl than this.
00:41I mean, take your pick.
00:41This is the women's one.
00:42This is the men's one.
00:43I actually find them kind of a little bit unisex.
00:45It's not too overly the top masculine.
00:48Obviously, the projection is there.
00:50That bottle is a work of art.
00:51I don't even want to touch the top of it because it's gold, but wow.
00:55So the top on this one weighs a lot.
00:57Like, this is a heavy bottle.
00:59Pretty good looking.
01:00So 10 sprays is about one milliliter, and there's 50 milliliters in here.
01:05$3,000.
01:05You do the math at home.
01:06I reckon it's about six bucks a spray just off the top.
01:09When you take the bottle into consideration, it's a special occasion fragrance,
01:12and there's, I think, one of these bottles in the country right now, so, and this is it.
01:16So this is the Amouage Crystal and Gold.
01:19So you tell me what the most you would spend on a fragrance is.
01:23Would you ever spend $3,000 even if you won the lottery?
01:26Do you have any Twitter?
01:26Yeah.
