Will share if I do make the purchase next year. The future is uncertain for us Malaysians. In fact, I did place a fragrance order just before xmas. Just couldn't resist the offer. Stay tuned for my last fragrance haul of 2015 next month.

My scent of window shopping today was Dior Homme. Still on my year end leave.

anyone know if i should get 212 men or chanel de blue?

im looking for a strong smelling fresh smell kinda like soap/after shower
*
My vote will go for BDC.. It has a masculine tangerine opening scent. A classy scent.
While 212 are burst of potent lavender.. Somehow i feel the lavender sting my nose badly..
I got a bottle of BDC(EDP) version, Which i enjoy it very much on formal attire ( Office,Meeting Client & Wedding Dinner ).

Thanks! I took the inspiration from you  biggrin.gif

Side track a bit. I see you guys are talking about watches wish list but mine is just simple. I only have 3 watches for different occasions. Casual (the one in the picture), formal and outdoor/diving (though I don't scuba dive nowadays). Having said that, as a tech geek, I'm interested in Moto 360 but I think it wouldn't be practical if I have to worry about the battery life all the time.

Lolz... Bro should stick to your previous shooting style. It has your own style.. Remember how bro shoot your CK Escape,Tauer Cdm & Breath of God.
Yet my picture shooting just tofu class. Point & shoot. Bro camera skill are far way better than me.. rclxms.gif
Bro as a tech geek,Can consider getting Samsung Gear 2 or Apple Watch to go with your hp. Easily to pair and sync the important date,data or other nice function nod.gif

Awesome Fragrance adventure everyone... smile.gif
It was really fun and excited as a passion fragrance-head.. Is like addicted to try out all of the fragrance..

For me started out as all of perfume fans here,From designer range to above-average level such as ; Giorgio Armani,Dior & Chanel etc..
Slowly and exploring alternative scent for 'Niche' class and into 'Niche' fragrance..

As for New year haul,I hope to add in more bottled in my collection series.
Don't really like to change fragrance-house collection,But happy to try out new scent from diff house.


Trying out new fragrance today by Terry De Gunzburg ; Bleu Paradise
Looking and discover her take on Rose fragrance...

~ A mysterious blue rose envelops the essence with warm cedar and reveals a sensual musky dry-down. ~

anyone tried nautica voyage? what u guys think about it
*
Nautica Voyage is a Nice,Inexpensive Fresh,Aquatic scent.Worth explore for a while..But i bet,You can ask more for the longevity.
Nothing Wow me.. As the scent kinda generic... But if you can afford to spend a bit more,I would suggest straight go for ADG or Bvlgari Aqva.
Both are nicer selection for Aquatic / Marine scent wink.gif

Try 4711. It's very affordable. It smells similar to much more expensive Neroli Portofino by Tom Ford.

4711 cologne spray smells absolutely awesome and amazing scent. Personally like it vy much.
The draw back here is the longevity,Seems no longevity to me. Like 30min pufffff.... gone.. Can do a small decant and carry wherever you go. smile.gif
Given the price,Couldn't ask for more.. Just carry a small decant and is good. And abuse it! laugh.gif
But with the hot and humid Malaysia weather,The fresh scent is really nice

I went to try RM160 Afnan Supremacy Silver. To my surprise, it's very very very similar to Creed Aventus, complete with the birch burned tar smells. Only that it's slightly less potent, but very very similar.

SOTD: Dehn al Oudh Abiyad. This smells like Gucci Oud

Isetan at the Garden Mall MidValley had fragrance stock clearance promotion for the past few days. I did not know that it was a highly regarded Aventus 'clone' at Basenotes/Fragrantica, tested it by chance. However my wife said it smelled totally different.

I'm not sure if it's available somewhere else.

Ic.. Thanks for the info.Geezz.. I wound't be travelling to Kl few month.. Too bad.
Perhaps bro can whack it first and share with fellow forumers smile.gif

Thanks bro! I'll be getting Salome by Papillon next after CNY only if I managed to raise enough fund by then and for that reason, I need to sell off some of my dormant bottles. I'll post them up on my WTS thread this weekends.

Congrats bro!!! rclxms.gif rclxms.gif
I can see here,We all have a diff appreciate approach on the fragrance.Is good that we can exchange the scent by doin decant..
Talk about 2016 New Year haul,My order 2015 reach me today! Nothing special, As my acquisition on existing brand that i own.
Hope to fill up the family portrait of my collection. smile.gif

Been argued and discuss by most of 'Ang-Mor'(Si-Mat salleh), Original santal sharing the similiar scent with 'Designer range' Mont Blanc Individuel.
I do not agree on this,And I love both scent. I was first explore Mont Blanc Individuel before stepping up into Creed creation,Hence i'm familiar with the scent.
Somehow is all about quality stuff with the money you paying. Original santal start off with a potent aroma of warm cinnamon follow closely with smooth Sandalwood.. As the scent are really remarkable. While the scent calm down, The creamy vanilla come out joining the party with Cinnamon,Sandalwood with the hint of fresh Juniper berry giving a twist on the scent.Giving it a fresh make over,And not overly sweet and cloying.. While dry-down was supported by Tonka-Bean(Easily detect),With some warm spice from Coriander,Rosemary & Ginger..
As the scent continue remain excellent on projection and longevity still there infact,is ady been 4hoursss...
