Haha wow didn't know there's a perfume thread!! How many bottles you guys have? I have only about 10 but even I feel should slow down already and recently only buy when going overseas etc.

Haha... 50?!?! Do you use them all though? Even with 10+ I find that I use some more than others and purposely make time to use some of the slightly more unique smells.

Fresh smelling perfumes obviously can use everyday but because I like sweet smelling ones, I have a few but don't use them as much as I'd like.

Can't imagine with 50 haha.

Next one I'll go for a natural based smell then it'll probably be my last one for quite awhile. Thinking either Kenzo or Issey Miyake...

The atomizer thing sounds like a good way to keep smelling good the whole day haha.

Anyway just got the Black XS L'Intense. Love this scent. Been wanting to get the Black XS for a long time and finally got it at Dubai Airport. Really sweet smelling so some people may not like it.

Anyone can intro a "white" perfume which is unique? I have too many "black" or dark scents already, and my lighter ones are finishing soon. Like I said above, maybe Issey or Kenzo? I'm looking for something pleasant but still a little unique.

i really like the smell of l'homme,just bought it,but damn...really bad longevity,and after going thru other websites,many ppl have longevity issue with l'homme too.
i just bought bvlgari extreme last month,now this is really nice and refreshing,last whole day,smelling good,feels light,just nice.
i recommend terre dhermes too,classy orange scent,for young adults and up

for kenzo,kenzo power is the best,finish a bottle,gonna collect my preorder tester kenzo power this saturday,2 bottles of that,for back up.

Tried out a couple of perfumes without buying any on my latest trip.

Issey Miyake L'Eau pour homme Intense and Sport both smell pretty different for being different versions of the same perfume? The sport one just smells bad :/ I like the normal one but too bad that shop didn't have to didn't buy.

Paco Rabanne XS (not black) is also decent but looking for the fresh day smell I don't think I will pick it up.

Any other scents similar to Polo Blue / Davidoff Champion? Maybe Champion sport? Looking to get a daytime fresh scent. If not I will probably go for L'eau d Issey pour homme.

issey miyake sport is rubbish.i bought intense and sold it off,too cloying.
u can try versace pour homme or versace eau fraiche,but i think versace pour homme smells fresher than eau fraiche,i dunno.go try bvlgari pour homme extreme too,nice light tea scent,and very long lasting.
since u went to try issey miyake's stuff,have u tried their 2012 summer edition?some counter may still have it,try it
u can try cartier declaration too,fresh and very good siliage,but my fav from cartier is still roadster,warm herbal mint,amazing drydown

Already had versace pour homme tongue.gif . I tend not to use the same perfume twice for whatever reason so I won't buy that again.

What do you mean 2012 summer edition? L'eau D'Issey Pour homme 2012? Didn't know there's editions hmmm hmm.gif learn something new everyday.

Yeah, I'm looking to try bvlgari since quite a few people have recommended and also the safe choice is Davidoff cool water I guess but I would think it's too safe tongue.gif. Anyone tried Davidoff champion sport already?

Will probably come down to these few for a daytime/working scent.

Also where do you guys normally spray? I go on my wrists and 2 on the neck. Read somewhere should spray where the veins are more exposed to prolong the smell.

Cheers man will keep an eye out for that. Is it the basic Lacoste one that everyone's using? White bottle i think?

Yeah I sometimes spray on the inner elbow too but in my logic your wrist moves around more so the smell is spread around more haha.

Hi guys, what do you think of Polo Blue? I just got a sample and tried. Put some on my chest and the normal spots. Smell is still here in the morning since yesterday noon. tongue.gif

Nice and "safe" scent. Very suitable for work/uni I think.

Got the L'eau D Issey pour Homme finally a month ago and at first I thought it was a bit spicy/gingery but now I love it... after it mellows a little it's just nice.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before but what are good local stores/websites for slightly lesser known scents?

I'm looking to sample (then choose to buy 1 of the 3):

Nautica Voyage
Izod Izod
Chrome Legend Azzaro

Doubt I'll be able to in normal stores?
