All hope is not lost. There are still online perfume stores that don't use DHL Express.

Just a heads up for those in KL, bestbuyworld is going to have a clearance sale at its office at UOA II on 01-03/Jun.

SOTD - Lonestar Memories to cure my birch tar craving on this cool day.

The clearance sale should be a good one. Too bad i just back from KL last week.

The issue i'm concern is that if custom were to direct pharmacy to check on other courier parcel then I sure smoked.

The MOF Pharmacy dept just informed me that my parcel is released with last warning & any future detention and appeal will not be entertained.  Glad that they release it but sad cos its goodbye to overseas online purchases for perfumes.  sad.gif

I would like to sell off my Chanel Allure Homme, Chanel Allure Homme Sport, and also YSL L'homme. The reason is because I've gotten bored of the smell of these 3 EDT's. All 3 are 50ml bottles.

For each of these EDT's, I've only used less than 10 sprays. So there's still a lot more left. If you want, I can show you the pictures of the bottles and it's boxes. Original price that I bought it for was RM250++.

If you're interested, reply me or drop me a PM. I'm probably selling it for about RM190 each.

Hi all, my first post here.

Need help on which online shops that is the least risk of being confiscated by custom. Looking to get SL Ambre Sultan (strawberrynet??), FM POAL & MFK Aqua Universalis Forte (essenze nobile??). Or should I just stick to decants/splits as my purchase so far goes thru without any dramas.

By the way, in this hobby when I was living abroad, and had accumulated close to 150 of various decants/splits/full bottle of designer and niche (no vintage...yet). Might do some decants later as some of my collection had started collecting dust. Now back in Malaysia resisting the urge to buy online, but in dire need to get a backup for the 3 mentioned.

Ambre Sultan, you can get it cheaper from Strawberrynet when there's 10% discount plus additional discount up to 10% from their loyalty programme. You can get from Essenza cheaper with birthday voucher. StrawberryNet uses registered mail and Essenza uses DHL (not DHL Express). DHL is German's national courier and when it enters Malaysia, it'll be handled by PosLaju. Just try to stay below RM500 to avoid getting unwanted attentions. FragranceX and DHL Express are pretty much on their watch out list.

Showcase your collection next time. Create a WTS thread for decants/bottles for better reach of audiences.

To stay below 500, looks like any full bottle of MFK or Malle will be out of question. With weakening RM, buying more frag will need to be put on hold

I really cannot say I know the smell of Vertiver. Nonetheless here is the list for your reference .
From what I see in the list , you can probably find the Chanel Les Exclusifs ones in their boutique in KLCC ,regular ones in Parksons which have Chanel counter.
Of course the most common place one is the infamous YSL Le Nuit De L'Homme . Available in Parksons and Sephoras everywhere. Please make sure the one you try is the EDT, Not Le Parfum or one of the flankers.
Dior Eau Savage Parfum and the L'occitane one is quite easy to find too. TF grey Vertiver maybe can ask the FragBosses here to decant some for you to try. Hehe.

Anyway, good luck on your Vertiver journey .

Glad to know a new upcoming frag head... yes vertiver is a very versatile scent as it has many faces ie, grassy, earthy, rooty, lemony, smoky... depending on the essence was extracted.

Let me give u a rough idea of all types of vetiver that you can find and get your nose on in KL

1. Tom Ford Grey Vetiver EDT - Edp was too old manish for me, the edt is just so versatile, grapefruit and smoky vetiver..

2. Creed Orginal Vetiver - nice citrus, orange opening and turn into woody vetiver

3. Hermessence Vetiver Tonka - Gourmand vetiver, Hazelnut tonka vetiver

4. Atelier Cologne Vetiver Fatal - Juicy plumy vetiver

5. Les Exclusif Chanel Sycomore - Raw smoky inky vetiver

Thanks bro, just started my fragrance journey, apparently was a luxurious hobby as well. Not into collecting, just wanna get some long lasting nice scent for daily usage.

Vertiver i thought was just earthy only, didn't knew that lemony/grassy also considered as vertiver scent as well.

all the fragrance u listed, i just knew Creed only. U know any other place that i can try on before brought it?

Thanks.
