Hey buddy

For Annick Duel it's not that projecting scent, so i wouldn't mind to do 3 or 4 spray.. 1 on chest, 1 on base of the neck & 1 on the back of the neck. +1 on top of the hand (just to smell how the fragrance evolve overtime)..

For distance of spraying, it's up to you.. Far the sprayer, it would create a mist and it cover a lots of space. If you own Creed fragrance, the sprayer shooting death cloud, i would suggest you spray it around 2-3 inch from you..

Usually for darker color fragrance, i will avoid to spray it on the shirt especially white tee. Last time i accidentally spray my Serge Lutens Sarrasins on my shirt, and it stains badly..

For oil you just rub it in, should be no problem.. It's a oil form, very linear kinda stuff.. And it meant to be rub anyways lol..

Hope it helps..

Thank You, mrbs84 . I am eyeing on Annick Goutal - ambre fetiche and trying the samples of Myrrhe Ardente and Musc Nomande . Sorry, i do try to interest on Creed but it smells too much of tobacco and citrus.

No probs buddy..

Annick quite a good house and not that expensive as well.. But i hardly try their offering, just a few i did try.. Between those 3 i probably like Myrrhe Ardente, layer it with some vanille fragrance, and it become more lovely.. But you should try it on your skin and see how it develops..

Creed not my favorite as well, just not worth a price for a very low projection and silage, except a few of them..

I currently have burberry touch,armani code,l'eau d'issey,escada sentiment,lacoste essential,paco 1million,eternity,ck one and terre de hermes.

I think that burberry touch and armani code smells almost the same. Currently i'm considering buying sean john unforgiveable,DnG light blue or chanel egoiste.

Can any of you guys suggest other cologne that doesn;t smells like any of the one that I currently have? planning to smells some of them this weekend before buying.
I'm looking for something that suits my age(37).

Then you need some of the "mature" scent.

YSL rive gauche, Gucci Pour Homme, Dior Homme, Aramis, Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille, Kouros, et cetera.

Thanks for your reply.

Does the above suitable for our warm climate and office use?

Read some reviews about rive gauche and most people says that it smells like brut...
Gucci pour homme got some nice reviews, might try it out together with dior homme.
Which aramis would you recommend?

As for tom ford, not sure if they have it in parkson alamanda, i'm avoiding city center this weekend..

Warm climate is ok, but i'm not sure under bright sunny day. Better have a sample, and be easy with the trigger for the first time spray. For office use, it certainly do the job. As for Aramis, Havana is a best choice.

Most people get barber-shop / shaving cream feel from YSL Rive Gauche. Give it a try over the counter, who knows you might like it.

i am familiar with all in your collection as well as your proposed frags...

of the list i'd say chanel egoiste will fit the bill most as it is a rose floral that just ooozes class and machimo... perfect for dress up and evening use...
id also consider Guerlain Heritage for something that smells totally different from egoiste but is equally capable to serve those functions...
both these orientals are a genre that is missing in your current stable...if you not familiar with this sort and it MAY give you a vibe of "old man" when u first sniff...

the burberry that you should be investigating is burberry london... which is the most intersting of the house... plus, you gotta dig the gingerbread note... great for x-mas parties innit...

avoid the unforgivable and light blue... generic frags which smell like every other guy...

I totally agree with you on light blue and unforgiveable, they smells like most of the cologne that I have smell before. Went to test them out yesterday. I was looking for gucci pour homme but they didn't have it, so I tried gucci puor homme 2 instead and totally love it. It's very different then what I already have. I also tried the new gucci guilty, hate that one too..

I read some review about versace dreamer on the net and decide to blind buy it, but when i saw the picture, i remember that i have seen that bottle before and decide to dig my closet, sure enough there it was, still half full. It doesn't say versace dreamer on the bottle(50ml) but it was printed at the bottom. Bought it 5 years ago and I hate the smell, after sampling it again last night, i remember why i hate it.. still do 5 years later... sad.gif

I will try out guerlain Heritage and aramis havana, maybe next week, Thanks smile.gif

Versace Dreamer is a modern day classic... the opening "gunpowder" note may put you (and many others off immediately) but wait half hour later and sniff your wrists again...sray your pillow before a night out then come back and sniff... the dry down is to die for!

Gucci Pour Homme (1) is far superior to Gucci Pour Homme 2... (1) reminds me of pencil shavings and temple incense.. a glorious oriental... and its rather hard to come by these days...

(2) to me just like a citrus base that smells too a bit too conservative...

go crazy and smell more! smile.gif

Those 2 places have a good variety of frags to try. But Parkson Pavilion has a bit more variety compared to Parkson 1U. Parkson KLCC not bad too.

Paco 1 million - too sewwt n synthetic...i doubt it would work in hot weather.

Coolwater - good classic but too common nowadays. low longevity.

F by Feragomo - smells like a watered down Terre d'Hermes to me. but still an alright frag. i wish the sillage n longevity were better tho.
