In SG do they lelong endymion? Coz they change the design? I gotten two In London for 50% off..

The old bottles look too much like concentrate.

I think it last longer. The intensity can smell once it hits u. Good for a nice date night out.haha

Tried endymion…nice scent….love the coffee note….but just too weak on my skin

Looking for day time office fragrance. Shortlisted the below:

Prada L'homme
Mont Blanc Individuel
Dior Sauvage

Watched a lot of Jeremy's videos but still undecided especially in SG climate. Any recommendations here?

Of those 3 only, I'd say Sauvage. But what's your preference? Citrusy smells or aquatics or fresh fragrances
No doubt Jeremy is a good reviewer but I think you may want to consider other Indian or sub continent reviewers more as their weather is more similar to ours. That being said some of them suggest D&G The One in heat )

Where can I get CDNI now? If online where can I get? I checked the one on lazada but when I check the same seller on Qoo10 they show their CDNI as OOS, so if anyone who got it recently can confirm if they still have stock?
I've checked mustafa as well they don't have intense. Will the normal perfume shops like jasina, dollars and scent, etc. carry?

Someone said a few pages back could get for 20 bucks somewhere. have to search for it.
I know the toiletries shop in katong shopping centre and in i12 katong have for about 49 dollars.

Try carousell and search for seller gazzo and hopefully he still has some stocks of CDNIM

My 3 decants from Escentric Molecules has arrived.

escentric 01, molecule 02 and 03...
Frankly, I'm not sure what I should be smelling here. haha....

E01 - very light citrus
M02 - ambery notes.
M03 - a bit like encre noire vetiver?

Really interested on how it performs on you, specially E01

Thanks! But just checked sold out

 

[Beta_Tester]

Always 100ml..

 

[Taveren]

I try to get at least 5ml decants of stuff I am interested in to try it out, If I like it then I get a full bottle. And yeah 100ml is more bang fir the buck compared to 50ml

Same here, I've been buying niche perfume decants on Carousell to test them out, I just wish there was a bigger selection. I feel shortchanged if I were to buy the smaller bottle. When it comes to Chanel Exclusifs and Dior Private Collection, the choice is even more obvious ..

The dilema is when you like something that is not as versatile, something you only would wear at night or at a formal occassion or special event. That is when a smaller bottle may make more sense as you know it will seldom go into your rotation but you like the scent.

This is really an addictive hobby haha

So I was at Taka earlier to smell the rest of the Carners ...

D600 - It smells like a variation of Dior Homme Intense
Costarela - A rich complex lime citrus that's a bit bitter at the dry down. Interesting.
Cuirs - I can see the reference to Black Afgano, but this will not work well in our weather.
Rima Xi - A light gourmand vanilla rice pudding, a bit too light in fact, but it's just nice and not cloying.
Tardes - Another gourmand with almonds?
El Born - Herbal vanilla, a deep one that's not typically sickly sweet.

And now I'm gonna order online (sorry taka)
Which one shall it be

Did you see any new designers in stock by any chance ie the Boss, Jimmy Choo,Chrome Azzaro etc?

One word: Don't
It's a sweet minty frag which in our weather and if you sweat will engulf the office.
use Pour Homme or YSL Lhomme or Prada LHomme or Bleu de Channel or Aventus.
More people pleasing and soft
