Can I get a comment/review for YSL Y EDP? I can't seem to find sample or decant online, and the YSL shops are like 40min~1hour drive for me.
Thanks

Hi guys, I would like to explore niche fragrances but not sure where to start, and the list on first post is too long.

1. May I know which niche house has discovery sets that ships to Malaysia?
2. What are the procedures to buy from fragX? I read from one reply about buying less than RM500? is it because of kastam tax?
3. is there a list of reputable sellers I can refer to? (luxuryperfume, perfumeberry, carousell gerodakota, kamalruzaini from what i've read)
4. I'm looking for PdM discovery set, only found this person selling in shopee. any rule of thumb to see if this is legit?

Thanks!

That's a nice target. Just don't buy retail if you're planning to save money. Try at counter and buy online. Occasionally there'll be fragrance sales popping up here and there (luxasia). Be careful as there's lots of poison in here that'll tempt you 🐍🐍🐍

but online stores like fragrancex, their designer perfumes are too suspiciously cheap though...

so far all of the perfumes I tried are very nice, but not enough to make my knees weak, that's why I plan to try some niche houses hmm.gif

My samples came from MFK a few days back. Got no surat from anyone. So now it's confirmed that if you're staying in the northern states your shipment will likely be checked. Time to migrate to KL bro brows.gif

You too sultan izam7. Time to move hahaha

well let it serves as a PSA or something then, I think it's just Penang.

How about someone buy them for me and I pay 10% extra instead, been eyeing on Versace Dylan Blue and Dior Homme Intense for some time now, and perhaps PdM Layton too brows.gif

I'm pretty sure you can find some online in lazada or shopee. But you said previously you couldn't trust them. Unfortunately you can't find them in any physical store and I'm not sure if luxuryperfume has then in stock. Maybe try and check in their website if they have one.

Yup, shopee went out of stock 2~3 days after my post asking about the discovery set, now only left female ones doh.gif

There are 5 port of entry for air-delivered parcel from USA into Malaysia.
The processing done by Farmasi & Kastam is based on the parcel port of entry.

Jabatan Kastam will decide how much you will be taxed.
Bahagian Farmasi will decide whether the supplement should be seized and whether a warning letter should be given.

Red Color Warning letter: A General warning letter. Randomly given. (Can safety ignore it if it was for personal consumption)
Yellow Color Warning letter: If a bottle have over 200 (?) tablet/capsule. (Don't re-order the same bottle within 60 days)
White Color Warning letter: Only Penang issued it. (Please heed the warning)

1. Subang (Region covered: KL, Selangor, Kelantan, Terengganu & Pahang)
- Followed the standard SOP, under RM500 no tax.
- Give Warning letter. (Can safety ignore the Red/Yellow warning letter)
- No phone call from Farmasi/Kastam.
- For East Coast state, DHL only served your state capital. Pos Laju will take-over for other areas.

2. JB (Region covered: Johor)
- Will randomly tax you.
- Give Warning letter. (Can safety ignore the Red/Yellow warning letter)
- No phone call from Farmasi/Kastam.

3. Penang (Region covered: Penang, Kedah, Perlis)
- Will randomly tax you.
- Give Warning letter. (White color warning letter - saying they only give u 1 chance after that they will seize it.)
- Farmasi will also phone you and give you a verbal warning to discourage u from buying from overseas.
- Penang Farmasi only give you 1 chance to buy using DHL Express, after that they will seize it, but you probably can continue to order using the slow Global Mail.

4. Kuching (Region covered: Sarawak)
- Heard that they will seize all (but that was many years ago)
- Now I heard that some was let through......

5. Kota Kinabalu (Region covered: Sabah)
- Heard that they will seize every supplements!

N. Sembilan (Either Subang or JB Kastam)
Melaka (Either Subang or JB Kastam)
Perak (Either Subang or Penang Kastam)

anyone going to buy from US I wanna tumpang sample sets too, I'm from Penang and I got the warning letter sad.gif

bro hes selling decants.

no way that price for full bottle.  laugh.gif

Let me rephrase that, based on the pictures, names, and the prices he's selling for the decants, how can I tell whether this seller is legit?

also, can anyone explain to me what freight cost are? I remembered last time when I ordered MFK samples, there was another letter attached regarding something abour RM400+ freight cost to Hong Kong and what not. I ignored that letter. what happens if I request for COD? will I need to pay for freight cost in addition to delivery fees?

Just leaving this here.

If anyone is interested in getting some decants for an upcoming Roja split which consist of few of their best seller including the limited edition 15th anniversary collection, drop me a ping or reply to this message.

I'll drop the info to you. We do run other splits as well from niche brands such as Xerjoff and etc. Why not join in the fun? biggrin.gif
