Fruity citrus.

Anyone shopped at the perfume warehouse sale at Ubi Techpark before? How are the perfumes there, is it legit?

Yeah I wouldn’t say it’s sweet sweet. Citrus sweet, ive heard people compare this to aventus but I don’t really get that

Here's a (subjective) list of Aventus alternatives (pulled from Youtube):
Cedrat Boise by Mancera
Hacivat by Nishane
Vibrant Leather by Zara
Explorer by Montblanc
Bohemian Lime by Goldfield & Banks

Frankly, I haven't bothered to go find out what Aventus smells like

Essentials have singles day sales, any 2 items 20% off item price online.

Anyone wants to share to buy any item, I got one item in cart.

Just bought Bleu De Chanel EDT.


Love the scent but low key dissapointed with the longevity.

Unlike the Dior Sauvage, after 3 hours only the smell is gone.

Shud have gone for the Parfum.

I have both. You might not like the parfum. It’s quite a different smell to me. I wouldn’t wear it on a hot day. It’s nowhere as versatile as the EDT here in SG.

Yea i tried all 3 ( EDT, EDP & Parfum ) and prefer the EDT scent among all 3 even though it's cheapest. The salesgirl was gunning for me to buy the parfum lol

But the longevity isn't there.

Any thoughts on Penhaligon?

Maybe gunning for something from there

Looking at Penhaligon Sohan / Mr Sam


or maybe Jean Paul Ultra Male

Try Aesop’s range of perfume, some quite nice.

Bought their “Marrakech Intense Eau de Toilette” recently with wifey’s approval

 

[grizzly76]

Hwyl is my pick.
Too bad Mystra has been discontinued; it’s a unique resinous fragrance.

Where is a good place to get Dior sauvage

Hwyl too woody for me, don’t want to smell like a forest

Prefer Marrakech or Tacit

 

[grizzly76]

Tacit’s promised herbaceous notes didn’t work for me...
Marrakech is a good bet. Have the original in roll-on but not sure how it compares to the Intense.

Now got lots of sale going on right?
Dior Sauvage is available everywhere.


The perfume i wanted - Fougere Royale cannot be found easily anywhere.

Recommend me a good green perfume.

Someone recommended me Fougere Royale.

 

[grizzly76]

Fig notes always seem green to me; Diptyque’s Philosykos and Marc Jacobs Men might do

The reviews for Fougere Royale seems to suggest vetiver; if that’s the case, possibly Guerlain’s Vetiver or Lalique’s Encre Noire

Recommend me a good green perfume.

Hey everyone.

Today i happen to came by Tom ford Oud Wood.
I felt that the scent is super good.
Any pros here can recommend any other scent that is close to that and is easy to find(like duty free)
Tom ford is way off budget..
