Robinsons sale at Expo - selling for $59. (100 ml)

that's cheap!

when is it until?

 

[shamuslee]

Go to the retailers and smell them out.Scents development varies from one person to another...but whatever it is if it smells good to you get it,doesn't matter if its common or nobody reviewed it.

Unless you are "experienced" enough to tell diff notes apart...

True, it's better to go down and smell it~

but some shop u press the person will come disturb.

 

[shamuslee]

Different types of skin emits different types of pheromone and moisture under different climate conditions.

One man's meat is another man's poison in the world of fragrances...I suggest you get small decants to try out different types of fragrances to find out which are the ones that have 'synergy' with your skin type...

Oh and btw if anyone tells you expensive niche fragrance always smells better than run off the mill fragrances by P&G/Loreal/Givaudan/Chanel etc, just ignore these noobs in perfumery

thanks for the advice.

Go Sephora and spray on skin.See how it is for the day.Decant wise..don't think anybody doing designer decants,let alone any type of decants except for Sonic69.

Anyone tried CK Eternity? Like quite popular ah~

Men's Health Grooming Awards Best Products 2013 | Men's Health Singapore

Its a classic. Nice frag but longevity not so good.

 

[Sonic69]

What about Gio Acqua Di Gio?

Or Amarni Code.

Want go shop smell.

If you like ADG, try the Essenza version. Its an EDP. Longevity is much better. Still quite pricey however, coz it launched this year.

 

[Sonic69]

feel like trying mont blanc legend. any idea where can I find decant of it?

Bro, its very cheap already. Usually we buy decants of very expensive stuff. Legend is $55 for 100ml. Buying a decant of it is going to cost about $20 for 10ml. Do the math. Not worth it.

Can get from BM Filexaa. He is selling at $55. I got frags from him before. Good stuff.

Anyone have experience with Andy Tauer fragrances?

SOTD Chanel Allure Homme Edition Blanche

Review coming up for this one,probs next week.

Skin tested L'air du desert Marocain and Lonestar memories several times at Oblique. I found both quite unbearable to wear in our Singapore weather. I prefer Lonestar out of the two just because I dislike petitgrain.

SOTD: L'Eau d'Hiver

Eternity smells like a urine cake on my dry skin during its heart notes....definitely no go for me the same goes to cerruti image

Had the class Eternity in the 90s, which was okay back then. Tested some the flankers and they smell equally generic. IMO the only decent release by CK in this decade is CK Shock and even that is not FBW.

Was gonna get samples for Tauer since I've never ever gone to the retailers carrying niche here.Maybe should do a meet-up someday.

LDDM was the one I really wanna try.Don't know man...I wear a lot of "non-sg" friendly frags and able to pull them off.

SOTD: Le Labo Rose 31

 

[Bullseye]

[Feuerwehrmann]

Finally found a frag that lasts a ridiculously long time on my skin...
After showering once still can smell...
Dior fahrenheit...
Problem is, everyone says it smells revolting, machiam 铁打酒...

I ordered samples for L`Air du Desert Marocain, Lonestar Memories, Incense Rose, and Reverie au Jardin quite a while ago... I liked L`Air du Desert Marocain the most though all seem to be more suited for night scents. My sister told me that Lonestar Memories made me smell like a Indian.
