The Perfume Thread

Have a bottle of Lancome Hypnose, pretty dark and sweet in my opinion. Only used it once since it serves the same purpose as YSL La Nuit and DHI (for me at least). If you're ever in the Novena area you can swing by for a spritz!

I find La Nuit boring.How does it develop?Lots of lavender or patch-amber combo ?I'm never in Novena since ages ago LOL!

Bingo

Was aiming for it back in June.How does it develop?Generic scent or otherwise?

 

[Feuerwehrmann]

I know its definitely due to the moisturiser, cos only the areas applied got rashes...

Try spray on your clothes instead?

I have longevity problems with some fragrances when sprayed on skin but the perfume does its magic when sprayed onto my clothes instead (Eg: Creed GIT)

spray on clothes no issue with the development of your scent?
some ppl insist must spray on body to let it develop naturally...
actually how true is that??

 

[DorianSix66]

Bvlgari Black is a close to the skin fragrance.So don't bother spraying it on clothes or whatever.
I've tried.But these type of scents does have their time and place to use.

Many people have the thinking that projection equates to longevity which is not the case.

One rule I always abide by is to NEVER spritz a colored juice on the clothes.

Different people has different hormones/pheromones component that will affect different type of fragrance chemical compounds. One man's meat is another man's poison IMHO, so just try to test your fragrance on your clothes the next time and see if it last.

Eg: Original 4711/GIT/SL 5 o'clock doesn't last more than 1 hour on my body but when I sprayed some on my cloth before I sleep, the scent base notes (and sometimes even the heart) will be there when I wake up the next morning, its amazing

yeah if you're lucky, it might even survive a wash in the washing machine...

It smells very feminine with a concoction of fruits, mainly orange. I even smell some cucumber and pear at the heart, but the top mint note is 100% there. The base is just another generic soapy ending that develops about 3 hours later on my skin...

Hmm..maybe some other time I'll get it.Mr.Shroom Sir,you should do reviews as well!

Anyway by end of year I'll definitely get Tauer LDDM and a Thierry Mugler..thinking Pure Malt or Havane or both...anybody wanna help me decide?

 

[DorianSix66]

Nah.You'll get the hang of it.Need to smell more frags with diff notes.

Hehh thanks for the suggestion but I prefer to stay away from reviews because perfume-wise its a very individual preference thing. I prefer to enjoy the various fragrances/scents in my cupboard myself and think of vivid memories and imaginary scenes to destress myself from the pressure cooker that is Singapore.

I have a bottle of PM, and this is one scent that smells awesome on my skin and smells like synthetic plastic on my clothes. Its a very manly heavy tar/whiskey/honey smell that's linear all the way.

They are enjoyable,the green earthy ones to me are the most calming.My YT channel is growing pretty slowly but I'm gonna start being real and kill the hype on stuffs.

Linear huh?Hmm I'm a sucker for limited edition frags sometimes.That's a problem.
