Choosing the right fragrance for your own is unfortunately not straight forward. Alot of factors to consider such as your skin tyoe and chemistry but generally perfume will not last on dry skin. Look up and try fragrances that are reviewed as summer or day time scents and go to shops and test. Or buy some decants and enjoy the journey. Just my 2 cents

Right thanks, have work at novotel, will drop by jascinda since closeby and take a look. Since i have A&F fierce/MB Legend knockoff, now aim armaf club de nuit intense man for cheaps creed aventus. I tend to sweat a lot cos fat and weather hot, these 2 bottles should be able to last me quite a while.

Just got Versace Dreamer. Soft and understated. First time test sprayed on my arm and the scent stayed for the rest of the day. There's still trace even after bathing! Only other scent that had this level of longevity is the Prada Infusion d'homme which I bought because it just lasts and lasts.

Any idea where I can test except for Mustafa? Sephora all these carries ma?

You like platinum egoiste? I wanted to get it as well.
Its a nice smell but I asked a few women and they say it smells dated. Like something a 90s Channel 5 show actor might use.

i love it, its a perfume i like to smell on myself. makes me smell confident, but u are right it does radiate a kind of mature feel.

Those 'dated' fragrances are the timeless ones ok. I have a somewhat uncommon Davidoff, Zino. Smells in general like a rosewood furniture shop, very 70s and 80s but it's so so good!

Back from first visit to Bonjour. Frankly I had quite high expectations of the place: old skool shop filled with treasures. I basically look for 2 things buying fragrances: discon or old formulations of current frags, and testers/cheaper prices. I found more of the second and a bit of the first in this place. Testers of popular scents apparently are sold out. Browsed the place and eventually got Ferragamo F Black at a dam good price. Unfortunately I didn't find anything else. If you bulk buy, you'd probably get better prices at fragrancex. Otoh, I did find some discon fragrances which I have and love: Davidoff Zino and Lanvin Avant Garde.

I'll only come here if necessary. Otherwise my go to is Mustafa. And then mee pok dry with extra chilli after that :)
