QUOTE(izam7 @ Jan 2 2013, 03:15 PM) Are you going to France bro? Damn nice....i just came back from Paris. not so cold this time around. will go again end of this month. As for the perfume hunting, i can't do much due to my work tight schedule. My french co-worker also don't know much about perfume Just able to look around the Sephora and their prices are damn expensive (almost same as Malaysia) Better just get from Wazzap  Hi Bro Izam, Yes, the perfume arent cheap there. Still cheapest is States.. Good for you... Enjoy your trip:)

QUOTE(wazzapp @ Jan 4 2013, 08:28 PM) any1 tried creed royal oud? or got vial? i read somewhere..cant remember where was it..it says like gucci ph ii + spicebomb .. very tempting wehhh..  since both are my favaret frag... Bro wazzapp, I have Royal Oud.. On me... they are not similar at all... not even close ..  Added on January 4, 2013, 9:46 pmQUOTE(kelthuzad @ Jan 4 2013, 07:26 PM) i am getting hanae mori too,50ml edp,blind buying this.dreamer is unique,i like it,but not gourmand nor fresh,animale is great for the price,body kouros smells like cookies,not in a stupid polo pony series way Added on January 4, 2013, 7:31 pmreally?thanks for enlightening me,is expiry date printed because of natural ingredients are being used? i only have decants of tom fords,not bottles,but most fragrance have shelf life,not really expired and cant be used anymore isnt it?and i am damn sure kenzo power doesnt have expiry date printed cause i have 2 bottles of that.i have few classics for more than 20 years and still smelling great.i think it depends on how we store it,even if its manufactured last month,it will still be shipped here from other countries,and we wouldnt know what kind of harsh condition and heat the bottles have been thru before reaching us btw bro astroboy,long time never hear from u already,not in malaysia?? Bro kelthuzad... i am not too sure about that... but of course they still can be used after the expiry date.. they printed the expiry date to make us spend more... but expensive ones, if you store in a chiller, can prolong the shelf life.. I have some decants i bought 8 years ago... but they still smell good... i have to keep them cos they are no longer in production... I just came back beginning of the week... Next trip, i'm going to Vietnam... nothing much there This post has been edited by Astroboy22: Jan 4 2013, 09:46 PM

QUOTE(kelthuzad @ Jan 5 2013, 12:03 AM) yup,same with bro astroboy,not similar at all.bought 10 vials and fill into a big atomizer,thats my creed Added on January 5, 2013, 12:06 amyea,storing fragrance is the most important part.i got my red bull fridge already,testing the temperature still. haha vietnam is kinda boring.bought what u wanted during your trip to hong kong or was it japan previously?? Bro Kethuzad, Japan was my previous trip when i bought A*Men Pure Malt. My latest trip was to France.. where i bought montales and Etat Libre d'Orange... I will try them out and share soon... tomorrow im going to Spore... next trip, Vietnam.... very tired man.... I hope you are doing good... Take care bro  Talk again soon

QUOTE(kelthuzad @ Jan 7 2013, 10:42 PM) finally bro,so i am guessing this is the beginning of your nasomatto collection?very nice bottle,get a special cabinet for them bro.very nice packaging.did u tried duro?i am quite interested in that,its either love or hate frag,love those Bro Kelthuzad... yeah... starting this collection... I will buy duro as well... No bro... i dont have a special cabinet... i am storing this in my wine cooler... I've tried duro in a decant of 5ml... I think duro has more projection... But BA is more pleasant and easy for the nose... Very good.. i think better that duro in a way. Duro can be offensive especially in our hot and humid weather...

QUOTE(kelthuzad @ Jan 8 2013, 01:34 AM) yea i heard duro projects like crazy too.so other than black afgano,did you tried any other fragrance from nasomatto while you were there? Yes bro... i tried silver musk and hindu grass... not bad... but not a must have... Considering the price... hmmmm.... maybe next time, if i have extra $$$ to complete the collection. There are still quite a number in my buy list... so i cannot afford to buy now when they fall under the category of "not bad"... you know what i mean, right.... my bank account will burst if i do so

QUOTE(edwardleong @ Jan 8 2013, 05:08 PM) As long as masculine except gourmand... I don't want beast projection, longevity is priority Currently looking at Fahrenheit and its flanker and Prada Amber, Amber Intense, Bvlgari Black Bro... i think you can safely drop BVL Black longevity.. 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...

QUOTE(ShinKen @ Jan 8 2013, 09:02 PM) 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 Bro... i think you wouldn't want... the color... i think changed jor a little... i guess... i remembered... used to be blue right??

QUOTE(ShinKen @ Jan 9 2013, 09:16 AM) 8 hours? lol Team Fahrenheit goes beyond 10 on my skin  I was at Sephora yesterday but I didn't check Dior. my mistake ); ShinKen, i have La collection... 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...
