Pink city/beauty french enterprises. I think 2011 easier to find online like taobao/xhs

You interested in the 2005? I know someone selling his used 100ml but I'm interested in getting new/sealed so I didn't get that
yeah me too. just got a valentino uomo 2014 version but not from that year la. should be around 2018/2019 to right before discontinue. still got roughly 30ml left from my 1st gen OG DHI.

I've read similarities, how does that compare? But also read it's discontinued, even the 2021 relaunch. Where did you get it from?

I saw a lot Valentino UOMO in Mustafa.
If you saying Valentino vs DHI, I personally think Valentino one more easy to wear and like than DHI.
There's also Givenchy Gentlemen Reserve Prive.

for some reason 2021 relaunch V uomo is still around. the old uomo is the closest thing to dior homme 2005 as the perfumer is the same person.

i would say V oumo intense is comparable to the OG 1st gen DHI, not sure about those DHI that came after.

anyone try perfume clone from best perfume store??
With their ever increasing prices, might as well just get the real deal. What started out as online only business can huat until open 2 retail store just goes to show their profit margins.

Just tried Valentino Uomo, it's nowhere even close to Dior Homme 2005/2011

Prada's L'Homme Intense has strong similarities with the new Dior Homme Parfum with the iris-amber-tonka

They're free to try anyway, I think hit/miss depending on what you get.

I've stopped buying from him after I realised some clones are better in terms of performance and price, and owning his stuff made me just want to get the originals instead of supporting copies.

Selling on carousell but like nobody wants also so just use for gym or room spray

You gotta know what u want to try before heading down if not there's just too many and can get a little overwhelming. Its really a Hit and miss since there are so many releases, some are really close while some are more of an re-interpretation. I've got 2 from the x series and both have been great performers after sitting for a while.
If the OG is between 100-150 i would suggest to just go for OG since the X series is already almost 90 bucks.

Tried a few from Al Haramain and Ajmal, not bad if you’re okay with stronger projection and a bit more oud-heavy profile. You can get them at decent prices in Lucky Plaza or online via Shopee SG. Just be careful of fakes lah

Mustafa's prices for Afnan, Rayhaan and newer Armaf releases are basically identical to Aurel. Think likely Aurel are supplying to them or they both take stock from same supplier imposing price control and no under cutting. In that case its actually cheaper to buy from Aurel on shopee or lazada where you can utilize coupons for further savings.
