Edward how Versace Oud Noir compare to ADP Colonia Intensa Oud?
As I sniff Oud Noir before biggrin.gif
*
Oud noir is sweet woody scent... Imo it is the same genre with ysl m7 oud absolu and much refined creed royal oud... It is really a good scent for beginner that never encounter oud before...

Adp oud is more skewed towards tom ford oud wood side where d oud is there but not the skanky animalic barnyard of it... Adp oud is equal portion of adp colonia intensa mix with oud wood...

Thus giving u a citrus fresh oud that last! And projects too... This is the most potent adp ever... The suade n oud blended well to give u a buttery slight medicial leather oud and the citrus keep it away from being middle easternish which as well
make the scent light enough to wear for any occasions very versatile... No doubt it is an edc.. It lasted more than 8hrs and still radiates in late evening... Compare to oud noir which dissapears after couple hrs

Thank for compliment!  Perfume is my passion and writing review is indeed fun.
Hahaha I 'm not really enjoy London at beginning but I'm recently started enjoy it ~ the drydown is beautiful to my nose ~ warm and woody ( My last visit at Sephora - 2 weeks ago )
It took me quite many attempt to start enjoying but the opening is still not my cup of tea. On my wrist, the london doesn't lasting and project moderately. Hence, it's still unable to lure me into buying it. If now, I would re rate the scent 6/10 - 7.5/10!!! Hahaha >.<

BTW The tobacco note in CK One Shock is more to my liking. CK One Shock has a very fresh, SWEET  & smoky tobacco vibe. This tobacco note of CK One Shock is more versatile in my opinion. Its smell is simple yet linear ... very pleasant to my nose from opening till drydown. So, we cant judge a perfume through its bottle lol ( Cheap looking One Shock bottle )
SOTN: Leau D'issey Pour Homme
It opens with strong but fresh, green , citrusy vibe that is very pleasant to my nose. I am very satisfied with its performance ~ definitely lasting and project well!!! I get the most compliment from this juice.  icon_rolleyes.gif

Ck one shock is to shock u mah... Anyway ck one ori is a very nice scent.. I had one shock before, quite like it sweet cherry tobacco...

But i seriously reconmend u to try l'occitane eau de baux... It is poor man tobacco vanille... Strong scent n my gf love it...

London just does not last on me lol i like it more than dior homme.... Just que up for a 10ml split of PG 26 Isparta.. It is new niche rose oud release by the house of parfumie generale

Im dead

Haha, please don't feel tempted. You made us look like bad guys here. It's just for sharing and we really meant no harm. Anyway, It probably isn't a good time to shop now with USD going stronger against MYR :-

Im in love with it already bro

SOTN - Lumiere Noire Pour Homme... lol already wasted 5 sprays on my both wrists and i cant stop smelling them...

It is a spicy rose scent... the spice focuses on cumin and cinnamon... patchouli here not dirty at all... i think i can understand why bro Izam so disappointed with this blend.

IMO this is way better than Rose 31, no kidding... breathtaking, so cohesively work together all the notes no one overpowering anyone here... KInda simple scent, abit on a soft side, feel airy at the same time ethereal...the scent is so mesmerise me until i can live with its flaw...

The rose is there... same construction as Rose 31 but overall journey diff smile.gif

bro attacusatlas, how much is this bottle in Isetan? i think i just found my signature d and pour femme as vday present if the price is right

sorry my review is short this time, coz i just dunno wat to say, how to describe... just spend EUr14 to order a set of 4x2ml from MFK website to try it out...

my only complaint why this is not marketed under JPG lol

Sotd - mfk oud... Damn it is nice it is smooth it is creamy it is sweet .....

The oud here doesnt has the animalic, skanky, medicinal and barnyard characteristic which make it a great plus for ppl like me tat cant stand fecal scent

This is epitome of metrosexual... If tom ford noir de noir is the mosr sensual frag, this my friend is the most beautiful scent for modern gentlemen

Subtle yet dense... Contemporary finely done... The saffron n elemi gave it a sweet buttery vibe blends wellwith the oud....

I remember if not mistake all his oud series are 70ml gold botol... Min price RM1180...

Why all the frag i hooked are so expensive......

Did 4 sprays and cover in a cloud of divine scent.... Another 10/10 scent

Lumiere Noire is one of my many favorites as well. A full bottle of 70ml is around RM465. Wait for special promo, normally MFK will throw in some goodies like scented candle, retails at RM240.

haha such as when they will have special promo?

QUOTE(attacusatlas @ Jan 30 2014, 08:54 PM)
MFK's Oud changes my perspective of Oud. And it is my SOTN for reunion dinner.
*
however it is way too expensive lar~~~~~ i just love the saffron n elemi in OUD and the rose petal in Oud Silk Mood

Realistically i think i will go with City Love / City Oud lol

Currently imo FBW are:

Tom Ford Noir de Noir
MFK Lumiere Noire PH
Dueto Parfums Golden Boy (i know it is not rose lol)
Dueto Parfums City Love (i prefer the overpowering sirap rose)

Haha, I know I'm gonna get bashing for this. It would most probably be another BdC as mine is almost running out. Two NRFH EdPs I had, smell quite similar to Antaues, which I sold away because the musk was overwhelming and smelled like wet dog. Pour Monsieur smells quite dated for my taste. I quite like Egoiste before but when I tried it again yesterday and wore it to a movie it gave me a headache. In short, I've tried all Chanel mainstream fragrances for men and it's a shame that I only like BdC and AHEB out of the bunch. Pardon my noob nose. BTW, BdC started to get appreciation by fragcomm lately. Anyway, I still have one month to decide. My voucher expires next month.
I've heard quite a bit about Absolute Pour le Soir that it's a challenging scent. I ordered a luckysccent decant of it for that reason.

SOTD - Lyric by Amouage (Sample)
Starts off citrus on top and dries down to rose+saffron combo. I don't really pick up the other notes to be honest.

SOTN - Mon Patchouly by Ramon Monegal (Sample)
I was given a free decant by bro Astroboy to test August last year. Basically, my view still stays the same so I'll just copy and paste the mini review I posted on fragrantica. It goes like this :-

"I was given a sample to test and wow, this is really good. I usually cannot take oakmoss but this one is added at just the right amount to give an edge to it. The patchouli and jasmine with a touch of oakmoss in this work really well in harmony to create a wonderfully blended scent. IMO, this one is definitely a unisex scent but leaning towards feminine side. It does remind me of classic women fragrances. Very good projection on my skin for the first couple of hours. Just be careful where you spray it as it may be a bit harsh at the opening. It gets 4 out of 5 from me. I like it!"
