Zara Aromatic Future

So I "sprang" the 20 bucks and got this. Can say that opening wise smells like Sauvage. But thats all this is. In fact, even Vibrant Leather opening is same-ish as Aventus but it's just the opening.

There's no mid and dry down.

It fades so fast. When I tested the very first time, I had sprayed Aqva Atlantique and Aromatic Future on the same arm.

So I was getting whiffs of it in the open and while walking. So these maybe good for those who like layering frags. Say you like the opening of Aventus but you want it more creamy so VL + Chanel Edition Blanche for example.

My 0.01

I would say the best 20 bucks I spent was for a Rasasi Xtraordinaire Musky (Aromatic is good too) nice freshy that surprisingly has good performance on my skin.

New to the perfume scene. Was looking for armaf tres nuit online but no luck. Really hard to find one.

u can settle for Davidoff's coolwater, also pretty similar to GIT. imo, there is absolutely no need to pay for GIT. It smells maybe 5-10% better and simply too big of a price difference compared to the armaf or davidoff.

Coolwater is so common here, half the time ppl will be thinking u're wearing coolwater instead of GIT.

Yup starlike is right, can easily get it at mustafa. I have not yet tried Millisime Imperial but Xtraordinaire Musky is a nice cheapy IMO. Worth a blind buy. For me the base is similar to silver mountain water but I have to wear it again to refresh my memory. It will be my SOTD tomorrow.

There are some guys selling it over at carousell, if you dont mind the mark up.

Best place to get Mancera?

 

[chikubang]

I was thinking of getting cool water but its longevity is moderate. I still remembered my virgin quest to purchase perfume and I wanted to buy davidoff cool water. In the end, the lady at beauty language persuaded me to buy franck oliver blue touch instead, claiming that the scent is similar and the longevity is better. But something strange about blue touch is that it created a very strange smell/ odour when I perspire.

Mustafa has Rasasi? Didn't know that. Would they have Entebaa any idea?
I saw the comparison on Youtube by a few guys though. Not babbs unfortunately.

Far east I am guessing you mean far east plaza? in Orchard?
I can think of JP Frag (not as cheap), Dollars and Scents in Far East
Dollars and scents in Lucky Plaza
Jasina, Mustafa, Bonjour Cosmetics

First impressions

Took a whiff of a few scents at Robinsons

Prada Lunna Rossa Carbon - Dior Sauvage copycat. Nuff said.
Mugler Kryptomint = Interesting mint but cloying in our heat
212 Aqua = 212 + Legend Spirit. Nice opening but not a really good performer
Mandarino Amalfi = A more up market Aqva Amara ish frag
Venetian Bergamot = If I was 50+ and looking to stand out in warm weather, I'd wear this. Smells class but not for younger crowd
Dylan Blue + Aqva atlantique = same same but different.

Nice opening but then it gets abit muddled and can't really id the notes individually so it ends up being a scent that smells nice but nothing more.
