QUOTE(t0n3 @ Jun 23 2013, 06:25 PM) SOTD - Mandarina Duck (Pure) Black Its bottle design first caught my attention. Sprayed on my wrists and liked it. Got a 50ml bottle from Sasa for MYR135. A sweet tonka bean bomb that looks promising but doesn't last as long as I expected. It smells somewhat similar to One Million. Moderate projection although starts off strong. Has moderate longevity. Found out later it's the same perfumer of Encre Noire too. I tried at sasa today.. It is 129 for 50ml... Very strong tonka bean, remind me of eau extreme, drydown got this tobacco scent... Which quite like armani code...Finally a frag tat fit the name.. Black.... It projection is good... Longevity at least 6hrs... Very underrated... It is chanel allure homme eau extreme mix with armani code, it is quite well done frag on par with ee... With a very afforable price.. |

QUOTE(t0n3 @ Jun 24 2013, 10:54 PM) URL for fragrancex is www.fragrancex.com, right? Terrible experience. First they said my bank rejected the credit card transaction now after the weekends they said one of the items is damaged but didn't say which item and amount they are gonna refund. Gonna file a dispute report to my bank. Now they replied with a different reason saying it's out of stock instead of damaged. Pity n kesian... So far.all my transaction went smoothly |

QUOTE(t0n3 @ Jun 25 2013, 09:55 AM) I'll just wait and see. If worst comes to worst I'll just file a dispute report to my bank. Luckily, amount isn't that much. I was thinking of getting Chergui from them after sampling. It's about MYR60 cheaper than SN. Ya I very tempted to get chergui from fragx.. But worry abt buying niche from online discounter lol... the experience of having a niche.. I prefer getting from boutique lol |

QUOTE(t0n3 @ Jun 26 2013, 04:43 PM) I'd say if you like the scent, get it. Although both Chrome and CW are cheap, I'd probably choose CW that gives more bang for the buck as it has better projection and longevity on my skin. Why not consider getting Bleu de Chanel if you don't mind the price tag and step up the game a bit. For me I prefer cw out of the 3... Not only it share some similarity with GIT, it also one of the best modern smelling fougere.. Despite launched in the late 80s... Nice projection n decent longevity... And also nicely price... U can also try ck one too |

QUOTE(killdavid @ Jun 26 2013, 05:52 PM) LOL, only thing that kept me from getting it was longevity. Not really good on that. Bro... go try acca kappa white moss, 100ml edc 220... Smell nicer than dior homme cologne... Longevity I got 6hrs on my wrist... Imo it is also citrus clean white floral scent, but more elegantly done |

QUOTE(t0n3 @ Jun 26 2013, 05:56 PM) SOTN - YSL La Nuit De L'homme (EdT) Going for a movie tonight. Got a 10ml travel size bottle to sample due to the hypes but just doesn't do it for me. Just wanna finish the juice. Moderate projection and longevity on my skin. For me it is just an ok frag.. Does not live up to the hype... |
