The Perfume Thread

[cutthroat]

FragranceCastle has EDT and Parfum limited edition listed on their website. Can check with them before heading down to their showroom. From what i read online, most people who own or have the chance to smell the various versions of CDMIN rate the parfum version the best. But the parfum limited edition is 2x the price of EDT/EDP.

Thanks but I literally live on the other side of the island. Might just end up blind buying EDT :/

Shot in the dark but you might want to check with Jasina. They are importers and supplier of perfume to many brick and mortar type sellers in singapore. They have quite the collection of middle eastern clone house fragrances and i know they used to have CDNIM for sale but not sure if they still stock it currently.

Thanks! I did go down but they only had CDNIM EDT. Was also thinking of testing Eros EDP and Ultra male but they didn’t have that either.

Went down to dollars and scents at lucky plaza and they had CDNIM EDP and even the newer CDNIM Pure Parfum.

Currently using creed clone Armaf Club De Nuit Intense Men but to me it smell like tobacco.. Don't really like the smell. Prefer mont blanc explorer which I'm using previously. Haven't tried creed before..

Now I'm looking for a perfume which smell fresh/fruity replacement. Any recommendations? Anyone bought perfume in Malaysia? I'm traveling there soon maybe just pop by their department store and have a look.

@Rainbow1112 fresh and fruity... I suggest Concentre d'Orange Verte from Hermès.

got a cheap Tres Nuit EDP. The matte bottle looks better than the red Tres Nuit Lyric. Good and cheap enough.

Doesnt' smell the same as Cool Water at all.

Recently got to try Nishane Hacivat, my initial impressions is that it's quite similar to Aventus, but seems a little sweeter on the opening, but the dry down seems similar.

Happy Sunday to all. Bleu de Chine from Marc de la Morandiere for today. White florals that does not smell too girly. Just nice.

Also sharing that Montana came out with Collection Edition 1 to 4 which smell similar to Baccarat Rouge 540 and Nishane etc. I will probably get these clones due to budget constraints. Go test it out folks.

Try Jasina. I remember trying out Bade'e al oud Amethyst at their shop. Think they should have the regular Bade'e al oud too.

A*Men from Mugler. Mine is in a tester glass bottle. Straight off caramel and spicy notes (ginger?) and last like this throughout. This was so cool when it came out in the mid 90s.

i bought bleu de chanel at genting highlands... about 20 bucks cheaper..

Today wear Maxim's Pour Homme from Maxim's de Paris. Is an old school smell; warm spices / cinnamon. Far from today's popular fresh or sweet ones.

Glad to test some of my shortlisted ones at retail. After testing, decide will not go for it. Save money!

Do you guys wear oud? Is it a suitable fragrance for our weather?

Tested the lattafa bad'e al oud at jasina, i quite like it. Amethyst smelled like cough syrup to me.

Almost wanted to get it immediately but I thought that it's kinda strong and heavy for daily use?

Depends. Oud tends to be a love it or hate it affair. Synthetic oud can come across as skanky or offensive smelling but the saffron and patchouli in Bade'e al oud balances things out. I used to have a bottle of Afnan supremacy in oud which like Bade'e al oud is a clone of Initio oud for glory. Much as i loved the smell and the performance was absolutely nuclear, i sold it off as it wasn't really made for office wearing. If you intend to use daily in an office setting, i suggest go easy on the sprays initially or if you have zero self awareness, then just heck care and wear whatever the heck you want LOL.........

Would want to get Supremacy in Oud now I know is nuclear power. Finally shifted all my barang barang to new place. Putting on a light citrusy scent for the evening. Indifference for men from Panouge.
