Just went to Bonjour Cosmetics at Golden Wall and it was ok. Imho, price is definitely cheaper than retail price. I still can get most of their perfumes at a cheaper price though. To reward myself for the effort going there, bought a Versace Man Eau Fraiche 200mL which i think is decently priced at 72sgd and Ferragamo F Black 100mL at 46sgd. Seems they give 3dollar discount from their tagged price.

No Dior Homme or other flankers.
Egoiste at 130sgd. Too steep for me. Allure Homme at same price, didn't see any other flankers.
Mugler only have the original A*Men.

Not sure if it is me but performance around 6-7 hours. Projection and sillage quite strong for 1st 2 hours in office, after that it wil settle down nicely. Perform better indoors, outdoors not so strong.

I got this baby from Carousell from a nice seller. Maybe here not many guys using?

Normally for me it depends on the type of fragrance, if it is sweet and dorminating i will spray once, on the side of the ear/ neck, in front of chest and on both the wrists. These are all the common pulse areas i apply.

If its a lighter scent with poorer sillage i may apply twice on my neck area.

It all depends on your preference. I follow the saying "Fragrance is meant to be discovered, not announced" so i try not to drown my colleagues sitting around me with my perfume. :s13:

Get a $2 glass spray mist from Daiso and bring it around when you are outside. It is better to spray little by little else it gets too overwhelming.

got a whiff of this in tangs. They re selling the gift set for the same price as the bottle !!

works ok imo. you're right; outdoor and its gone.

i went to try dior cologne and the lady there was cool. i told her sauvage is really popular and she answered "yes but dunno if for the fragrance or the spokesman."

i told her maybe spokesman but he''s having some problems now. "yea maybe because of the fragrance" she replied

"no worries I will ask all my friends in unhappy marriages to spray this "

Good deal! I just went Sephora after meeting one of our HWZ bro for a bottle of Chanel BDC edp. Took a whiff too on sauvage and im not sure why it smells like my detergent. Anyway its on scent paper maybe skin will project differently. Dior Homme cologne resembles 4711. Like it alot, together with Fahrenheit with the mandarin citrus smell.

Valentino Uomo smells great,def a Club Fragrance or office for dare.

Bro ur really good, can strike conversation so easily with the SA. They approach me i ran far far. :D

Longevity is quite ok to me but others say it is quite weak on them. Projection is quite weak though, becomes a skin scent after 3 hours.

If you like those powdery scents then you will like this. Some say has similarities with ysl la nuit de l'homme but i'm not sure as i don't own a bottle.

Hi Frozen bro, how is this fragrance you are using?

Yes after sampling both dior homme and dior homme intense I find that the former is much more versatile. Despite the rave reviews for the DHI in the community, dior homme is easily more wearable in our weather. Still thinking about getting a bottle, I do own a bottle of Dior homme sports though.
