the male version spicybomb
Seriously is da bomb. A more refined version of one million

You know, alot of reviews say that, especially on Fragrantica, but to me they smell not much alike.
One Million smells like 212 VIP Men to me. very similar.
Spicebomb smells like a 'cheaper' version of Tobacco Vanille. Also like Eau De Baux. I know, weird nose I have. But thats me. But I like Spicebomb, if I didn't already own the other 2, I would buy it if nothing else for the uber cool grenade bottle.

 

[Sonic69]

Worth the try,I would pick that over Spicebomb which isn't that great on my skin.Haven't tried anything from Gucci...should look into that.

Is the Lady PR similar to the male offering?I only tried Black Xs...a lil disappointed...since I have a ladies frag which is so much better than Black Xs and 212 VIP..

Lady Million is not much like 1 Million at all. I don't like 1 Million (which I've said also smells like 212 VIP Men) which is too cloying for me.

Black XS is soooo sweet. OMG. I've only sniffed it from the paper stick but haven't tried it on my skin yet. For that kind of frag, I've already got TM A*Men and Pure Havane.

Typical clubbing frags

Yes Black XS is sweet but yea don't think I would grab that.Been interested in TM line for awhile now but with all that hype about "beast mode" projection, longevity & "winter only" kinda turned me away although I feel that it can work in Sg's weather with the right amount.

[shamuslee]

I wan try the Victoria secrets scent but the shop looks intimidating. ..dun dare go in..then airport got body mist I feel not worth spend so much for water

airport got vsecret parfume or not ah?

anyone knows

 

[Skwisgaar]

I assume you bought one of the Hermessence line? Which one?
I like Vetiver Tonka, Ambre Narguile, and Santal Massoia. Ask people here if they want to buy any but no response one. Want to get the 4x15ml set at DFS.

You're 2 years late else I'd share with you
Anyways, they're releasing Epice Marine as part of the Hermessence line, might wanna give that a try before deciding on your final 4.

I sampled Viktor & Rolf's Flowerbomb.I get a lot of florals and tea,very beautiful.To me,it's not overly feminine.I need to do a review on this sometime in future.

SWEE! thanks for the SIC! gonna consider getting that too! THANKS BABE!

Haha. Ah well.

Reviews on Epice Marine are not stellar. But as with all frags, I'll go in tmw and sample it at DFS.

I'm leaning towards Vanille Galante for the 4th.

From what I know, Hermessence only available from the Hermes boutiques.

As mentioned before, the Hermes boutique airside in T2 is the friendliest. I've gone in a few times to sample Hermessence and they have been very helpful and friendly. Hence, I will gladly buy from there.

 

[Sonic69]

No problem although I'm not a lady.

Nowadays, GUYS also used for females. So no problem calling guys BABE right?

Good day to all.

New to perfume, got poison by this thread.
Wondering which bottle to get for my very very first one.

Had tried the recommended brand and those hot seller.
I came out with this thinking, immediately after spraying on paper.
All smells the same to me.

Tried clinique happy, the lady sprayed it on to her name card due to lack of tester paper.
So i kept it inside my pocket. After i went home i took it out and sniff it again.
Smells so different.

Today i gonna make my way down to escentials to look for serge lutens, five oclock. Anyone can recommend any bottle which is worth trying out?

Thank you.

5 o'clock is awesome. Love it. Full bottle worthy.

However, since you can't discern the differences you might as well make your wallet happy by buying more affordable frags. Just a suggestion.
