It's up to ur own perception la, u know certain types of fragrance smells 'sexy' to the female nose, so it would be good for clubbing or dates. Certain fragrance smells refreshing so it would be good for gym sessions.

Generally there is no right and wrong la, but usually the community will come to an agreeable terms on what is the general vibe of the particular fragrance.

Depend on many factors: indoor/outdoor, is it warm/mild etc
In general, fresher scents are more pleasing and suitable but you can play around with it
outdoor you can try : sauvage, aventus,versace man eau fraiche, nautica voyage, cool water
indoor: lhomme, bleu de chanel, allure homme,ch men
clubbing: sweeter like 1 million, invictus, armani code profumo, eros, angel men.

depend on your tolerance. do you like stronger or softer. sometimes you may like stronger but if you are not a strong character it may not gel well. best way is get a girl who is close with you and bring her along. spray different scents. dont forget get her a sample and a coffee to say thanks :)

Ohh okok thanks alot bro. Cos i am considering to buy mb individual, hg bottled intense and ch men prive, although i heaven have a chance to smell these fragrance yet, these 3 are few that are more cheaper and better fragrance. I know there are alot of others better fragrance out there but its too expensive for me and those are more of a mature fragrance and doesnt fit me since i am still schooling and not over 21 years yet.

Peherps you might wanna reccomend me some good and cheap while long lasting fragrance for teenages?

I have nautica voyage but it doesnt smell good to me ,idk why. Luckily i just bought a decant for it.

If you are below 21, please skip montblanc individuel. It's very sweet and mature. I made the same mistake as you when first starting out. Always read reviews online and blind bought fragrances. Sold my bottle quickly.... But I have no doubt individuel is value for money provided you really like the scent. It performs very well.

Boss bottled intense should be alright.

Never ever commit to buying a fragrance without first smelling it, because chances are that it wouldn't work for you.

And in my opinion, longevity/silage should be secondary considerations. Above all a perfume must smell good to you. A common newbie mistake is to overrate performance when evaluating if he/she truly should purchase a fragrance.... But of course there are exceptions.... such as neroli portofino. 400 bucks for 100ml of something that smells like an EDP version of 4711 and doesn't even last like an EDP... which is overboard in my books.

Agree with boreddd. Smell it first before anything. If you really like CH Men Prive, someone on carousell is selling for 25 SGD for 50ml.

Try N83 Voyage if you can find. I smelt it at SD perfumes in Changi Point. Versace as well does good frags. Usually for your purpose fresher scents are better. My secondary school frag was RL Polo Ralph lol. Whole school was wearing might as well sell in the bookshop. But try carousell. Really good deals.
