Just use what you like. "In" thing means you just smell like everyone else.

Orchard Central level 2 Black Market can test the samples but not get any samples. I bought NO.2 and my fren said it smelled like insect repellent though it is very exotic. Anyway, ordering directly from tauer.com might be cheaper.

If you want, we can order together. Just PM me.

actually the cost price for perfumes are pretty low, you go to those distributor clearance sales the prices are even lower than what you can find in shops.
some brands you can find here locally, but HK still the best in range of brands and prices lah

can anyone enlighten me whats the difference between eau de toilette, eau de cologne etc. does it actually mean anything?

 

[quotient]

No diff.

can anyone enlighten me whats the difference between eau de toilette, eau de cologne etc. does it actually mean anything?

EDT doesn't last very long. Cologne does last long. But then again Singapore is so humid. Pointless to wear perfume unless in the office. I normally wait till the air-con in my workplace has been switched on for about an hour before i actually dabble some perfume on. i guess skin type also plays a part in terms of longevity.

In order of concentration:
eau de cologne < eau de toilette < eau de parfum < parfum/extrait
