QUOTE(shankar_dass93 @ Jan 8 2013, 01:27 PM) Hi Kelthuzad, Mind getting your opinion on Chanel Platinum Egoist ? Went over to Robinson somewhere around November at Gardens and saw them selling it there. If im not mistaken the price was around 300+ right ? Planning to get one soon. The SA was claimed that this perfume could last for more then 8 hours. platinum egoiste is suppose to be a fresh scent,but in a different way than the regular fresh scent.its not the modern ck/armani type scent,but in a more sophisticated kind of scent,suitable for any age i think,as long as you are in a shirt or polo shirt,not t-shirt with jeans kinda guy,its not a laid back scent.yup the price is around 300,it lasted fairly long,6-8 hours usually,sometimes longer if i am in air-conditioned places whole day

I don't want beast projection, longevity is priority Currently looking at Fahrenheit and its flanker and Prada Amber, Amber Intense, Bvlgari Black

However i'm not too sure abt Amber Intense... I have a 90% full bottle of Prada Amber .. and im not really keen on the scent...  So im just putting it aside...

Since Amber is not a limited special run, do consider on selling to me la the Prada Amber at 90% juice  hehehe I really really dont like the opening. but it then evolves to a no-flavour soapy scent which I think will be valuable for me on gym days

It smell like luxury baby talcum powder lol... Test strips does not do any Fahrenheit justice... I sprayed all 3 Fahrenheit on both arms... Ori - the floral dry down so damn nice Aqua - Grapefruit dominate, abit like Bleu de Chanel 32 - Super sweet vanilla Should I go for the classic Fahrenheit?

M7 and Rive Gauche... i think M7 is wonderful... slightly different from the previous M7...It's more wearable.. anyway, as for rive gauche in la collection, i this it appears lighter la collection... the cylinder version appears to have better projection... and yes, the bottle is really nice...
