Thanks bro for ur sharing,
What's ur personal rate / review take on this? DHI or DHP better?

Personally I prefer DHI as my untrained nose is not advance enough to enjoy arabian scent
Both are great high quality scents but DHI is more wearable and versatile, and I can see DHP won't get as much compliments as DHI. DHP is too 'serious'

The dry down of DHP is my favourite part. Some coco comes out and sandalwood toned down quite a bit. Kinda remind me of A Men (bitter coco)

Thanks for sharing bro. Being a fan of DH, I'm curious how it smells like. Not sure if it's available at my local Sephora.

Nice input bro.. Maybe i'll like it.
While for me,Bitter Cacao are quite nice compared to sweet cloying cacao scent
Remind me of Nasomatto Pardon ; Oud + Dark chocolate combo & one of my fav Valentino UOMO

Bro which sephora u went to? I'm very itchy d.. Price wise?

Starhill Bukit Bintang. RM370 for 75ml iirc...

Nice.. really appreciate your input bro... will drop by sephora tml during lunch as it is just beside my office lol to pick up a bottle and i collect enough points to redeem a 10% discount from Sephora . Hopefully the iris will not turn plasticky like DH, as DHI to me is far superior

Still im waiting for the elusive Fahrenheit le Parfum and Dior Eau for Men....

On the other hand, i have tried Bleu de Chanel Edp... i can fairly say this is a sweeter and deeper version of the edt. i dont get the grapefruit incense trademark combo, instead i got a sweet citrus fruity opening and slowly mellow to the edt drydown.

Projection is subtle if compare to the edt, longevity same... however the price diff is marginal lol... i would go for the edp version if i dun have the edt, but if u already have the edt, the edp is redundant...

Looking forward to your review bro!

Aiseh... bullet full reloaded..
Gatal for new fragrance nowadays

Thanks bro,Not really dig all fragrance from this house,Just part of it are simply nice...
I feel ADP produce really good juice and they are really underrated.

Nice one la bro

The following dialogue took place at Dior lab at grasse one fine day under my imaginary

Demachy: My fellow team members, we need to come out with something new to capture the market as well as take care our bonus

Staff A: why boss? The new releases no good?

Demachy: basenotes and fragrantica no hype kaw kaw also... Anyway who don't fancy kaw kaw bonus... We need a flanker how

Staff B: how abt commercialise the prive line well u know kan our oud ispahan and leather oud are outstanding but yet garners feedback on both extreme end. and Our DH line has always been say it is not man enough as long as we continue to develop our Tuscany Iris the lipstick way, and our DHI has been the milk cow of the company... how about more masculine version of it?

Demachy: Sounds interesting... How abt we pick the one with has the best fan base such as dhi and incorporate these two u mention. But then don't forget we reserve the best ingredient for prive line.

And such Dior homme parfum has been born. Enough of the corporate joke, let go to the main point the review of this baby../

They change the wording on the box to gold colour lol and I did compare the ingredient of this and dhi... The arrangement of ingredient is diff... Dhi: alcohol, aqua then parfum
Dhp: alcohol, parfum then water
So we can safely say dhp has a higher concentration than dhi... The flacon is nicely done... 75ml in 100ml size as u see the juice is darker and so do the scent...

I did a comparison, dhi on my left forearm, dhp on my right forearm... Before I go on, the note listed for DHP is not complete, it has more than that lol

now what do i get? opening is similar due to the DH backbone. DHI has this waxy lipstick vibe which is toned down from DH whereas DHP experienced this stage for like less than 5 mins then got this Pardon vibe ozzing out... it is drier and warmer than DHI.... then DHI continues to develop to the signature iris, cacao vanilla bomb which is very sensual.

Now as for DHP it develops into something darker... here is wat i get for DHP.... Iris, Cacao, Sandalwood, Leather, Oud and Rose.... dont worry it wont turn into the rose/oud combo.... DHP now is dark floral gourmand leather for the next 9hrs and counting lol.... everything here is dry and dark and well-blended..... no single note try to be outstanding and act like a mature pimple lol

Everyone play supporting role... the leather here is amazing... smoky par with the oud used in OI which give out a very masculine vibe. The dry iris, cacao and sandalwood moist and sweeten the leather and oud so u got this rich dark iris cacao leather...

No need to worry projection and longevity.... after 6hrs on my forearm, it still projecting 2 inch lol

Now the verdict... if u got DH/DHI, will this redundant? Sure NO!!! it is a beast of it own... easily best release of the year out winning Bvlgari Men in Black...
