2016 Fragrances: Classic or Hype?

There’s a reason people keep saying 2016 hit different — and fragrance was no exception. This video looks back at some of the standout releases from 2016 and why that year produced fragrances that still feel relevant, wearable, and memorable today. Before endless flankers, clone overload, and algorithm-driven hype, many of these scents were built with clear identity and purpose.
