The haul that was today

I bought ambra, encens, dunhill icon gift set, lidge

adp performance is quite good, even though it's edc
the leather I bought from last clearance lasts much longer than tf tl current formulation, imo a better version of Tuscan, without the sweetness and suede, another version of ombre I guess

ambra is juz ok, linear, you'll smell like a musky sea creature tongue.gif , should have bought the oud dry.gif

encens is stinkahh, don't know from the incense or ambergris, leans toward feminine, performance not as good as Santal royal/cuir intense
can't complain much, RM220 for a frag wif real ambergris

I was stupid not to grab the zadig doh.gif
as usual all of the Prada lhomme bought by 1 person

Love that encens . I tried the previous version Encens Mythique D'orient and this version. i think they are quite similar. Not the real ambergris i guess, but really nice. 220 is a superb deal

according to guerlain it's New Zealand ambergris, maybe a drop of the tincture tongue.gif

Guys,
What is the actual price for mont blanc individuel? I checked lazada most of them is around 160 - 180. Is this the correct price? Worried buying fake product.

Thanks

as long it's from a reputable seller like perfumeberry, fragankita, acharr, fiqeera, luxuryperfume
should be legit

I bought from FragraceX twice back in December 2018

First was RM 300 - kena tax

Second was RM 420 - kena tax

They use Fedex so sure kena tax.

Took about a week to arrive after payment.

Edit: Just to add on...the frags i bought from FragranceX were all Laliques...the whole Encre Noire range in 100ml bottles for RM420. Stock was quite new...comparable to buying from dept store. However the sprayer on Enre Noire Sport is a bit faulty...i don't get a fine mist like the other 2.

Second RM 300 purchase was for Lalique hommage a l'homme and hommage a l'homme voyageur. Not sure if they were discountinued or limited production but the condition of the box was not great and the stock was at least 6 yrs old. But both smelled alright so no complaints.

If you do get from FragranceX...remember to manage your expectations. For their prices, u gotta be ready for old stock and dented boxes lol. The faulty sprayer I not gonna blame on FX...i have bought bottles from dept store that had faulty sprayers.

dang, hard to find a bottle now, I juz have a vial of it,
smells like tdh but with dusty patchouli background wub.gif

Any verdict on mont blanc explorer?
*
imo it's a mixture of aventus n sauvage
smoother, less harsh n more sophisticated than cdnim
but I'm not a fan of the sauvage-ish ambroxan drydown n it's too light, close to the skin sillage, low projection, 6+ hours longevity

Went to chanel to buy perfume for wife. Tried out platinum egoiste. Smells great. But on drydown, if I am not mistaken, it smells like david beckham instinct. Hopefully PE is longer lasting than DBI. Planning to buy PE
*
I still prefer the normal egoiste, rose/cinnamon+sandalwood, dirty, more 'fun" version of Santal noir/Santal royal

fragrancex/perfume.com/fragrancenet are "discounters"

Hey guys, what’s a safe fragrance to start on with Le Labo and Frederic Malle?

For perspective, i do like quite a range of scents but nothing too crazy or outlandish.

Favourites are Bleu De Chanel, Tuscan and Ombre Leather, Declaration d un soir, Dior Homme Intense, Diptyque L’eau de Neroli
*
I find le labo-ring brows.gif , most of it too linear or too essential oil-ish
Santal 33 is pretty nice thought

FM, I've only sampled a few in jp, musc ravageur/poal/iris/monsieur
I'd go with musc ravageur or monsier
I only have a sad vial of POAL, one thing for sure, u have to love rose + it leans feminine, the mid-drydown is beautiful

not really niche "niche" but if u like leather, check out
Guerlain Cuir Intense, insane performance
LV Nouveau Monde
Gucci Voice of the Snake

QUOTE(arvindder @ Jul 31 2020, 12:10 PM)
Hei guys, i found this instagram page selling perfume's for very cheap price. They are claiming its all original. Have you guys bought from them before?. Is it authentic?

Guys, wanna ask..
I blind bought prada l'homme from fragranceX.
Found it kindda offensive, my frens felt the same.
In malaysian terms, it smells similar to minyak angin cap kapak for the 1st few hours lol. Dont get how this is mass  appealing. Any1 got the similar vibe?
Wanted to make sure it not smth wrong wif my bottle.
*
lol nth like minyak cap kapak
is there a strong stinging alcohol smell right after u spray? maybe already turned bad

to my nose, its a soapy clean powdery iris with a bit of neroli/jasmine, quite unisex, according to my friends n family, smells like high end hotel soap, imo it's a good office scent, because of its clean smell, low sillage n good longevity

it's only mass appealing to angmoh countries I tink
malaysians are used to citrus fresh/woody or aquatic men scents, other than that it's too weird, busuk la, too strong la, bau Pak Arab la tongue.gif

Damn...how does it turn bad. Unlucky if get a bad bottle, but is there such a thing?  Less likely to b a fake since it is from fragranceX.

Haha definitely no alcohol smell. Do you get that in urs? Well i dont really know how exactly iris n neroli smell like. As a comparison I got dior homme intense, which indeed smell lipsticky, which i enjoy.

My bottle got good longevity. Projection quite strong. A bad combination if it smells like minyak angin. 1 spray into the air enough to get my frens dizzy. Imagine that staying on my skin d whole day.

I dont know how expensive soap smells like too. Unless they smell similar to dove lol. I agree generally malaysians are not used to frangrances. Now that you lentioned it, one of my fren say i smell like pak arab wif prada l'homme. Funny.

Towards the end, mayb after 4-5hours, i feel it turns kindda sweet n powdery. Not really sweet sweet. At least better than the 1st few hours.
*
maybe reformulated? Lemon unit?
for sure not like minyak cap kapak tongue.gif
neroli is the fresh floral-y note, can smell abit like jasmine
iris usually is the powdery floral scent
dhi has that chocolate-ish accord n cosmetic/lipsticky smell at the late drydown, very different from lhomme

weird, my bottle is 2018
low sillage, sad 1-2 hour projection, decent 6+ hours longevity, mostly a skin scent, I usually spray at the collar, people can barely smell it
