Should be about 80-90 bucks for 125ml? Not really quite sure.
Chinatown and Lucky Plaza should be good choices.

Tester comes without the nice packaging mostly and sometimes without cap. As the name implies, tester is to let ppl test the smell loh.
Use some reasoning abit... if the tester is weaker than the normal bottle, will ppl still buy? :p

If tester packs are 'weaker' than the normal version, then wouldn't that brand go down the drain as people will use the tester version to gauge its quality...

Tester set is always better... Used to have the Hugo boss Elements tester and normal. The tester seem to last longer and the fragrance also stronger.

My Top 3 fragrances:
Chanel Allure Homme (for work)
Chanel Allure SPORT Homme (for weekends and off work)
Issey Miyake L'eau de issey (but realised it's very very common, so using it as my room fragrance spray now :s13:)

if you go to places like tangs, they pull their testers outta the box.. so its actually the same as the ones that you buy from the shelf

i like M by Mariah Carey as well as Karen Mok. I am not usually a fan of celebrity fragrance but these two have an alluring sweet smell. Maybe you all want to check them out for your gfs or even for yourself (if you are a girl)

Perfume hunting ground at bonjour-balestier

Anyway, all chanel perfume is control price item. No matter the retailers from lucky plaza, chinatown or etc... they get stock from chanel priniciple so the price is control and agreed before hand, so price can only be difference by 10% with dept store. Buy from dept store is better you can get freebies, samples.....etc.

For your info, there is 2 chanel ego ferfume with the same bottle design one is chanel egoism & the one is chanel egoism platinum. this 2 scents are totally different. Price is about $90 plus at luckyplaza, chinatown. Another hunting ground which sell low price perfume is .....

at BOnJOUR NO 2 JLN RAJAH $04-18 GOLDENWELL FACTORTY SPORE 329134 TEL-97341254. OPEN FROM MON-SAT AT 10AM TO 6PM. I have shop there one and bought armani diamond intense(100ml) at $70. much cheaper than luckyplaza. Worth taking a look cos so many brands you can think of they also have. Anyway i saw stock got stickers from some authorised perfume distributor so can be assure they are originals. just share where to get low, original perfume... do not 4get to ask them what is the perfume of the month promotion, which is selling at offer price...Lanvin eclat 100ml at $45... where to get...
