i just bought Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme.. i normally spray 3 times at the neck area but unfortunately, the smell doesnt last... at most 1-2 hours. any tips on spraying or is it I have no chemistry with it?

I am a user of this perfume, for many years. The spray on me is very strong, I spray chest, neck and wrist total about 3-4 sprays - can last me the whole day, even when I'm home still got the smell.

Need to replenish my Chanel Platinum Egoiste again, just finished my 2nd bottle. Can someone advise where can I get the 100ml for a good price? I don't mind if its tester set so long its the real thing. I have been getting my fragrance from Bencoolen, but I feel the prices have been going up every time lor...

TIA

Are you referring to Cuscaden at Bencoolen?
How are the prices and range in there ?

You can try Jasina [City Hall] or Perfume Bar [Chinatown].

Jasina's indian uncle told me that testers are often grabbed by their regular customers before even putting it out for sale.

Perfume Bar quoted me $95 last time (2months ago).

Yeah Jasina had it in stock when I went there about a month back. Going for $120 IIRC.

Try Qoo10, about $3 each.

Otherwise, Sasa and I've seen Guardian carrying it too

thank you!!


Anyone knows of a good tobacco scent that is very long lasting and good silage? that does not cost as much as Tom Ford?

Honey tobacco - try looking at
Lanvin Avant Garde
Thierry Mugler A*Men Pure Havane

Fruity tobacco -
Dolce and Gabanna The One (Very well-liked, versatile. Projection and sillage is weak though.)

Other mentions that I've never tried but well-received in other forums:
Versace Man
Versace Dreamer
John Varvatos Vintage
