- Yay.
Okay I'm really happy.
Yay!
Hi, I'm Brad Mondo and I'm doing
the expensive taste test with Cosmo.
I think I will do good.
I feel very confident in my taste.
I feel like I have very expensive taste.
My mother always told me that.
- He always smells so good.
- So, I feel like I'm gonna do really well at
deciphering which is expensive and which is not.
(upbeat jazz music)
Mousse.
Okay.
This is gonna be really hard.
I feel like a big deciding factor
if something is expensive or not,
when it comes to hair products, is the scent.
Because when you make a nice expensive hair product,
you have to use a perfumist and it takes a long time
and you need to have a good experience
to make something smell really good.
So let's see.
This is not expensive.
Oh, wait.
This one's a little coconutty almost.
I feel like...
It smells more drugstore to me.
I hope that's true.
We love the texture going on.
And this one just has like a little bit more
of a touch of something to it.
This one is more expensive.
- [Producer] You're right. (ding)
- Yay!
Yay.
Okay, I'm really happy
(upbeat jazz music)
Let me get down here.
I'm seeing a pearlescent sheen to this one.
This one looks much more pearlescent,
and honestly, feels great.
This feels like water.
It does.
This color looks a little muddy and ugly.
This is definitely more expensive.
(buzzer)
Stop.
Are you sure?
I feel ashamed of myself.
Let's just forget that ever happened.
(upbeat jazz music)
We have scissors here.
All right, right off the bat, this one looks more expensive.
And I feel pretty confident about that,
but we're gonna test them out really quick.
Oh, I dunno.
Looks can be a little deceiving.
Okay.
I don't know.
Okay, I don't know what these are.
The blades have a nice even distribution,
so that when you cut the hair,
it gets all the hair and some pieces aren't cut less or more
and you get a nice sharp line.
Okay, this one's 40, this one's 349.
(buzzer)
I'm upset.
(upbeat jazz music)
I hate this game.
It's way too hard.
It just looks like the shaving cream
you use as like a kid in school,
to do like projects or whatever.
Is that just me that did that?
I don't know.
I don't know anymore.
I've lost hope after the past two times
I got the answer wrong.
And I'm really embarrassed.
But, I feel like I just wanna go with my gut this time.
I feel...
That's minty.
This one's more expensive.
(ding)
I did it!
Okay, I don't feel like a failure anymore.
(upbeat jazz music)
Okay, let's see.
We know this one.
We know that one.
I already know by the scent.
Come on, you can't fool me.
This one is more expensive.
(ding)
Smells like hot chocolate.
I always know that one.
(upbeat jazz music)
These look very similar.
I have some experience in New York top water.
Let's see.
Let's see the color here.
There's really no difference at all.
They're both very clear.
This one has a little more scent to it.
Got nothing from that.
Absolutely nothing from either of them.
They taste the same, guys.
They look the same, they taste the same.
This one has a little more smell to it.
Maybe that's like a chlorine type of vibe.
But does that mean it's tap water
or does that mean it's like more chlorified?
I'm gonna say this one is expensive.
Yay! (ding)
(upbeat jazz music)
I don't have much experience with this,
but, I have great tastes.
So we shall see.
These do remind me of the ones I had as a kid.
So, do you like eat them?
You just suck on them or like...
It's like salty.
What do you do with them?
Okay.
It's a little bit darker, it has a little more color.
It looks a bit healthier and a bit new...
A bit more nutritious.
Oh.
Snapped my tooth off.
Based on those findings, this darker version
of the seeds is expensive.
(ding)
(upbeat jazz music)
This looks like cake, like frosting.
I wanna kind of eat it a little bit.
Girl, I don't know what's gonna happen
if you put that on your head.
Seems like an expensive thing, like somebody who...
Like, you probably just don't even need that,
but you feel like you need it and you just buy it
and it's like expensive so you think it's working,
type of thing.
This one also feels kind of nice.
Huh, they smell pretty identical.
They're both minty.
Oh I love the scent of this though.
I would wear this as a cologne.
It's like sexy.
I'm gonna go this one's more expensive.
(buzzer)
We got a no from that.
It's a no.
(upbeat jazz music)
Okay.
This is tricky already because they're different colors.
We're gonna have to really go on scent here, I feel like.
My hands already have mint scent all over them,
so probably not gonna smell much, but...
I think I'm just smelling my fingers at this point.
I have no idea what that smelled like.
Oh God.
What is that?
Smells like a tree.
Not for me.
That one is not for me.
This one feels like water.
And this one just feels a little bit heavier.
I'm gonna this one's more expensive.
The more yellow one.
Yay! (ding)
The scent is not for me, but it's okay.
It's fine.
I feel terrible about it.
Good thing that I do the most, I got wrong the most.
What does that say about me?
I hope nothing.
Because I'm embarrassed, ashamed,
and I am not gonna live this one down for a long time.
My senses have been revitalized.
I feel like I can pick out the better brand
more obviously next time.
I feel like if I did this again,
I would really just nail it.
Thanks for watching guys.
