OKAY.. I'm done trolling and joking lol
about that perfume Bro Edward post. I respect's kelthuzad's opinion. however, why are they 'wrong' just because they are cheap? or even made in China, for that matter. I do have a question. or two
1. Prada Pour Homme = Channel Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme / some say Chanel Allure Allure Homme Sport (but I lean more toward Eau Extreme)
*Prada isn't cheap. but they do smell similar.2. Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille vs L'Occitane En Provence Eau De Baux
*according to Astroboy, they're not the same. but ALMOST simalar.
Eau De Baux isn't cheapbut when there's this RM 30 perfume which smells familar, it becomes wrong?
there are so many perfumes that smells like another.
Animale Animale = Pure Malt/ A*Men (I have not smelled it. but you get the idea. even if just the opening, still
got similarity what)
Perry Ellis 360 Red = Giorgio Armani ADG
Davidoff = CREED Green Irish Tweed
SJ Unforgivable = CREED MI (very very very very smilar. but
SJ Unforgivable isn't cheap)
so, it's ok to wear perfumes that smell similar to another bottle as long as they are not cheap or not made in China?

wow.when a joke needs explanation,it just isnt funny anymore,the same goes to my sarcasm.okay since explanation is needed,here goes:
products made in china not all are bad of course,and it has nothing to do with china,adoi,so if i use india as the origin,everything about india will appears??hahahaha aih what i meant is that china counterfeiters imitate a ferrari by making the red Ferrari F355 on the outside,and a used Pontiac Fiero on the inside,and it cost $10,000 only.now if you ask any real ferrari enthusiast,they will still fork out millions to get the real one than the imitation.if you need to ask why,i have nothing to say anymore...as this saying goes,dont get down to "their level",as they will beat u with experience
1stly,i dont know why other comparisons came out when the beginning its only about those rm30 "our version of" perfume bottle.
2ndly,even if we take those comparisons,what makes you so sure that cool water really copied green irish tweed?or other fargs u mentioned?they might or they might not,if they didnt then people that accuse that would be really wrong,for sure animale animale didnt copy pure havane,p.diddy likes millesime imperial so much that he creates his own version,and for that i dont respect him that much,i dont own unforgivable nor any celebrity endorsed fragrances,thats my stance with imitation.how would you like it if i copied your school projects(since you are a student,hence this example,i need to explain everything here you know)alter it a bit,submit it and claim its mine?i dunno,i am someone who's proud with my effort and my work,hence i respect the work of perfumers. i heard this from somewhere before "theres no substitute for the real deal if that's what you really like. It might take you longer before you're able to own the more expensive bottle, but it will be worth it when you got it."now i am very sure that the intention of those rm30 frags wants to copy and imitate the real bottles as the word "inspired by" is printed on the box,go to page 123 for confirmation
what i was thinking at the same time is that why they dont come out with something out of their own creation instead of rm30 "our version of...."?? i have tried sniffing many at hypermakets and watsons on these imitation perfumes,they smell very different from the scents they wanna imitate,so why tarnish the good name of the real products by taking their name on imitation bottle??because of "i dont care i just wanna make some money"??go sniff them before saying they smell the same.
for me,i recognise effort and talent,when something is made from 100% effort,it gets my support,same goes with a bottle of fragrance,when efforts are put in to create an original bottle,imitators just copied the recipe and try to replicate them,i am referring to these rm30 "our version of..." frags,which you woud never know what stuff they add into the bottle,as i have said before this bout the same thing whereby they can harm your health,you really think malaysian health ministry gonna check all this rm30 perfume companies??even non halal restaurants can get a halal sticker at the door nowadays..so since you are okay with buying and using rm30 "our version of" perfume,why dont you just buy fakes??1stly you can save so much money,2ndly they are more similar to the real thing than the rm30 "our version of" frags,lastly you even have the same bottle,so tell me...either you are (a)a buyer who buys fakes as well since they smell similar and no wrong and can save money or (b)someone who doesnt buy fakes,but why dont buy it since your points match fake bottles 100%?no wrong what,they smell similar
