Have you tried looking and comparing from fragX and strawberrynet? Maybe dewatawangian has better pricing. Vetiver is cheaper at strawberrynet but Heritage is cheaper at fragX.

Heritage is RM240 retail, but fragx sells it for 300.

Please correct me but i find the the retail for Guerlain is very reasonable, even cheaper than online.
*
shalimar is still expensive retail, and so is habit rouge. the main reason for this is because guerlain scents are low in demand in malaysia. however they risk closing shop if we dont buy from them.

i guess the price point depends on which fragrance, the ones that are less popular have a lower price compared to the more popular ones. However I will need to survey again...soon...heheheh

Guys, what is the best way to spray the perfume on urself? Is it advisable to put it on skin too?
*
Perfumes should be sprayed on the skin. Many perfumes will only show their true colors when activated with body heat.

I normally spray on chest, then top up on shirt or neck. If I really want it to project, i also spray it at my torso

somehow I am wondering if in future how to choose buy perfume.. I just don;t really enjoy the perfume smell after an hour that I spray on my body... I even though that maybe Istan sell me pirated perfurm... feel like abit piss off..
*
you have to be aware that most perfumes will change smell over time after being activated by body heat. Some perfumes smell even better after that, some are just bad. That is why if you read about a perfume there are top notes, mid notes and base notes. Top is what you smell when you just sprayed it on, mid is 1-2 hours later and base is 3-4 hours later.

I cannot stress this enough. If you are just starting with this hobby, test, test and test. Spray on wrist, and smell it with the tester in the supermarket. Keep smelling it for the next few hours. Not immediately. If you like what you smell 2-3 hours later, then only you buy. If not sure, test again until you are. Else you will regret.

personally i have never experienced a stuck nozzle. if you just bought it and have kept the receipt, you can exchange it at the perfume store.

So ladies & gentlemen, what is with your nickname/username? What is the story behind it?

To start the ball rolling, Attacus atlas is the scientific name for the largest moth in the world, the Atlas moth and can only be found in SEA/Borneo.
http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attacus_atlas

So why choose insect as nickname? Why the Atlas moth? Well I was studying entomology (the study of insect), involved in R&D back in university and I was inspired to become an entomologist. And I find that Atlas moth can well represent me in the virtual world of my origin, my passion in entomology. I have been using this nick for the past 15 years, even for my email account.

So back to you all.
*
I love japanese stuff back then thus the -kun suffix. Joey's my nickname all along.

Joey u are very knowledgable in Guerlain how difference between vintage and current reformulation. Next saturday, i am gonna back to Sarawak my hometown but before back I m going to KLCC for some fragrance window shopping. Hahahaha
*
i can say that it is not as much as you think, barely noticeable. The 1960s version is too expensive on ebay anyway. Also the topnotes would be gone by now.

Axe the chocolate one is nice, besides that the one i used to keep using is the one called Africa or something? With red and green stripes on it. Shrugs. I never bothered to remember the names.

I don't like roll ons coz I just feel they're a little unhygienic. I know it's just in my head but still.

I'll probably get some nice scented shower gels from L'occitane or Crabtree & Evelyn or smt instead of deodorants.
*
I read before that the chocolate axe was designed to smell exactly like a*men.

a*men owners who tried that one, do you agree they smell alike?

You are most welcome, bro.

Thailand has far too many local brands that have made name for themselves in the international arena. Don't miss out the Boots pharmaceutical store that carries UK brands like FCUK, No. 7, Botanics and local brands like Sabai Arom. I always get my supply of shower gel from there. It is more interesting that the Watsons and Guardian. Don't forget to apply the loyalty card for free to entitle for additional 5% discount even on already discounted items. Besides, you get VAT refund at the airport too.

If you are going to purchase Panpuri and Mt Sapola, never ever purchase them at the departmental stores even though they are on sales as the price at the airport is much more cheaper. Fyi Mt Sapola is available at Pavilion KL and One Utama with insane price.

Nonetheless Harnn & Thann are NOT available at the Bangkok airport. My fav spot to purchase these two brands is the Central Chitlom as you get additional 5% discount by applying the tourist discount card. Just present your passport at the customer service counter and they will be delighted to issue you one. On top of that you will be getting VAT refund at the airport.

Other non scented items to get from Bangkok will be Jim Thompson, Naraya, Propaganda and a visit to the Pronto for raw selvedge jeans.
*
Hmm so if i wanna get Mt Sapola EOs, can you help me with that the next time you go to Bangkok

hate to admit it, but im kinda a snob when purchasin perfume, the vanity in owning the actual bottle itself lols. having said that, i may just go to the decant for the out of my pocket reach full bottle stuffs like tom fords stuffs in the future though.
*
what I meant was order a sample to test the scent.

Eventually for the higher ends you will have to give in and get decants (we call them splits) because the price is too insane. But then you really love it. So you have to meet halfway.
