Read that Boss Bottled has been reformulated before, no surprise if it doesnt last as long now if that is true.

Rather mainstream here, but what other perfumes are similar to:

Mont blanc Legend
Aqua di gio
Coolwater?

Hi there,

Can try Chanel Egoiste Platinum for mont blanc and either Aspen (budget) or GIT for CW.

AdG wise....i can't recommend sorry (nearest being Bulgari Aqva). Its a concoction of many chemicals from Morillas for l'oreal. If you look under what Morillas created most of them smelled aquatic Nose Alberto Morillas

Issey miyake has a very sourish smell in my opinion. Not particularly my favorite. I like John Varvatos Artisan as a summer/hot weather scent. Invokes a rather refreshing smell

Anybody know other than online, are there any local shops that sell Hummer H2 perfume? Very long time ago i bought it from a shop at Burlington Square but then they stopped carry it. Also cant seem to find it at any other shops. Lastly, other than Mustafa, are there any other places where i can test out a large range of frangances?

i tried varvatos's vintage, not my cup of tea leh :s13:

i guess fragrance is too individual to really have a solid recommendations, been hunting for cologne the past few days, pretty disappointed with the highly rated ones

Just do JPG's Le Male. Monster projection yet the lavender appeals to the majority and suitable for hot humid weather unlike leather/incense scent...

no worries, i hate vintage too. but artisan is very markedly different! try it! it is sweet, light, and citrusy. should be in the same class as issey miyake pour homme :s12:

Sephora or various department stores along orchard road. The range is more or less the same. Ask the promoters for the best deals and be sincere!
