Attar? Mukhallat?

Oh I see, didn't notice that blue arrow haha.

Btw,my SOTE..

It's from 2005, batch code 5G02.Bought this at a perfume shop in Langkawi believe it or not !

Top notes are intacts.The vintage has more iris(lipsticky smell) than the current so unless you really like iris,you will feel that current formulation is more versatile than than vintage.The vintage is also much more potent than current though.I used only 2 sprays and it will last 10+ hours.

I always buy the fragrance with box.In my experience,perfumes that was stored in the box will most likely retain their top notes.Even my vintage citrus like Eau Sauvage, Monsieur de Givenchy,Armani Eau Pour Homne etc all still have wonderful top notes.Off course over the time they will degrade but as long as you stored them in dark and cool(normal room temperature is enough) place they will be fine.

Oh,forget to tell you.I've got this one for RM 280.

Nice

I'll wear a Chanel too as my SOTA

Happy August guys.

My SOTD:

I also wear Eau de Meow today

1989...Yes the gasoline vibe is much stronger than current.It's also have smoother leather vibe,almost felt like suede leather in this particular version.Good longevity too,easily 12 hours.Other than that,the current is certainly retains the dna of original formulation.

Top notes is good.I've compared my vintage side by side to latest formulation at sephora and can't tell any difference between both.Okay,maybe the current is a little bit sharper but that's it.

I bought this one sealed from the ebayer from Romania for 80 euros shipped.I guess he didn't really know that the perfumes is vintage hence a modest price tag.If you want to buy vintage,you must know what you're doing or you'll get burn.

This site below is very helpful for identifying vintages
How to recognise Christian Dior perfumes

Most of them...I have current release perfumes like Miyako and Eau Parfumee Au the Noir.I also have the likes of LDDM,Timbuktu,Villoresi Uomo,Dzing,Colonia Assoluta,Terre d Hermes which may seems like current release but they're not

Yeah,go try Miyako.They sell samples too.

I don't buy splashes so my vintages collection are all from 80's and 90's.Like I said before,you must know what you're doing when buying vintages and when it comes to splashes bottles I don't.Too much risk so I stay away from splashes.
