I was wrong on Guerlain Ideal EDP.. it was good and I'm getting 4 x100ml
so can use it whenever I want

I dont like the opening, but once it dry down after 30min.. it's all good

Wow, that's a lot of l'homme ideal edps, prolly enough to last a lifetime!

If you're to buy that many, i strongly recommend buying tester units to save some money.

lhomme ideal edp lasts quite some time, but after the first 3-4 hours it doesnt project as much and becomes more of a skin scent.

Hello friends, I have a question about purchasing perfume from overseas. I've just returned to Malaysia after a long time away and I am admittedly quite ignorant about the custom taxes/ duties. The retailer I am purchasing from will ship through UPS and declare the item as 'Perfume without Vaporisateur' and will lower the declared value for me. Will this cause any issues with the custom department? I expect I will need to pay some amount of tax. And does anyone have an estimate what the tax/ duty percentage would be? Many thanks!

I was in this debacle once prior. I was told if your perfume is above RM 500, you will be tax. How much the percentage, they're not sure.

However, there's a chance they might overlook it and you'd be lucky they don't charge you but i personally wouldn't risk it.

Lately i have been looking for some citrus aquatic scents.
below are some of my review on this. some are not aquatic

Light blue pour homme
-strong citrus. Opt for intense if you like this "tajam" citrus scent.

Light Blue intense pour homme
-it is too acidic smell that hurt my nose. very strong citrus.

Light Blue intense (women)
-i really like this! i buying this for my girl.
-it is fresh citrus yet a little bit sweet. unlike the pourhomme version too "tajam"
-some say is unisex, but i find it quite feminine to wear as men.

versace pour homme
-nice citrus floral, but im looking for aquatic LOL.. the mid tone were too floral, however it is very safe fragrance for blindbuy or beginner.

bvlgary aqva marine
-top notes were mehhh.. but i got attracted by the mid notes. aquatic smooth. however it is too soft to my liking, very safe for blindbuy and good for beginner

coach blue
-aromatic lime. smell nice but nothing great

mb explorer
-mid notes smells like bvlgary man, which i have. vetiver, pahit2 yo. like tongkat ali smell. very masculine mid notes due to vetiver. <-- do aventus smell like this?

prada l'homme
-fresh floral clean office scent. this is really nice, but somehow reminds me of dior homme iris. wishlist for next purchase bcoz now looking for citrus aquatic

versace dylan blue
-i wondering anybody smell this somehow like joss stick (colok) chinese prayer. the mid and drydown really like joss stick.

ysl y edt
-clean sweet.

ysl y edp
-intense clean sweet

dior homme 2020
-boring woody citrus. office scent, safe fragrance.

ADG Profumo
-waiting decant

ADG Profondo
-waiting decant

**not into niche bcoz of price is too high. prefer getting dupe for similar scents rclxs0.gif

Has anyone shopped from Kens Apocathery? I was wondering if anyone has experience with their loyalty rewards program and if they are generous with samples (if at all).

ps: I bought an item from them recently but I am not happy about their customer service. They eventually fixed my issue after weeks and weeks of me chasing up but I expected alot better from an official retailer. And my perception on them so far is they seem to be more interested in chasing after influencers while the customer service isn't great? Not a good sign.
