6)hanae mori edp or edt (dunno how the smell pls help wheter edp or edt bttr in terms of smell)
*
Nice Selection Bro Hida.

I'll go for Versace pour Homme & Issey Miyake Pour Homme.

Regarding Perry Ellis Red 360 did share the same vibes with ADG,But with bro well-train nose,bro can easily tell it can't be compared with adg.
Due to poor longevity and projection,Just behind ADG shadow.
Meanwhile, 4711 Mauer & Writz (original) & Lemon & Ginger did impress me a lots with their cologne splash. I'm in love with it and seriously with the price tag,and the scent you get are really more than the price.

Nv tried Hanae Mori before and Dreamer are on tobacco and lavender flower combination. Nice blend. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

Great weekend fragrance fans!
What's you scent for outing on saturday.

For me,I'm Trying out new scent and this juice are really potent.
With 3shot,I'm in divine..

Initial spray i got smooth fine dark Belgium chocolate(unsweetened type) opening follow closely with cacao powerderish at back of the scent trail.
Vanilla doin a fine touch-up of smoothness and creamy on opening notes.

Here i barely notice any rose scent as mention on fragrantica ,while rum boozyness definitely there with a nicely and small amount of spice and pepper to uplift the strong opening dark choco... A nice take on gourmand scent..
When every mixture of concoction are finely done,this is the result..
To me,It remind me of Bond No 9 So New York cacao scent without the plum notes...

And i'm a happy guy enjoying nice scent today wink.gif

I've just visited the link you posted. Wow, Aventus Creed for men 120ml for only RM129 and the word "rejected". I don't have confidence buying from there. Well, that's just my opinion.

Oh man.. 120ml Aventus for Rm129.. Definitely a rip off.. cant be genuine.. Just my 2cent.

New Niche Scent Spotted : Fragrance Du Bois perfumes

Went for a shop visit at Tangs,And Receive a complimentary door gift for me and my wifey as well a loyalty card for my purchase.
Did try out their fragrance line-up,Most of it are Oud Base. Their Oud are quality Oud which comes in EDP - Oil Base Concentration.
Personally like one of their 'Limited Release' - London Oud which inspired by the Air,Environment and the bustling of downtown London.
And their pricing are premium too :
Anyone interested and let me know,As i entitle for 15% Disc.

Comes in 3 sizes :

100ml Bottle ( Spray ) - SGD959

Thanks bro, end up buying Chanel Allure Homme Sport since I could not find the Terre d'Hermes in Sephora. Tried Bleu de Chanel and I don't know if it's just me but I found the smell quite similar to Chanel Allure Homme Sport

Cheers bro for successful hunting down one of your fav perfume.
Well,Nice and safe scent.. Good for everyday use too wink.gif
So coincidence i'm using AHS too wink.gif

Have a great weekend!

Which perfume smells like coffee or choc ya??

As i know, black xs does smell like strawberry.. Not my taste. So, which perfume does smell like coffee, choc or vanilla?

I cant try all the perfume on the counter. They will give me a weird look. So, need ur suggestion, then i will try and get one. Tq

I already used the search button, not much info though..

And what do u think about joop homme, versace l'homme, versace man eau fraiche and versace the dreamer? Nice? I may need to blind buy these perfume as no tester available at counter or sephora.
*
For Coffee base or choc that first come to my mind was this designer brand ; Givenchy Play Intense. ( Smooth aroma of coffee bean scent ). Beside this,If your budget allow. You can try Bond No 9 New Haarlem.

While for Choc base scent,Personally highly recommend Guerlain's L'instant de Guerlain Extreme (Vintage bottle), As their latest release sucks due to reformulation.. I believe some of fraghead do still carry the vintage bottle.
Here's one of my fav.. If you could put Cacao & Coffee together then it will be fantastic,Then try Bond No 9 So New York.. Is one of my fav gourmand scent follow by Guerlain Elixir Charnel Gourmand Coquin. One of Guerlain masterpiece creation take on Gourmand at least for me.
While for Mugler,Personally find it too strong for my liking.

If you thinking of Joop Homme,Then why no go for better choices ; Mont Blanc Individuel. Warm Cinnamon Vanilla Combo... Imagine you walk pass by the cinnabon kiosk where they freshly bake their cinnamon bun wink.gif
For Versace Eau Fraiche is one of the hidden gem for fresh woody scent, Personally like the opening combo of lemon & starfruits.
For Versace Dreamer are on smooth floral ( Lavender + Tobacco combo ), slight sharp on opening,But when it the scent settles down, You in cloud nine wink.gif

Well,Hope this helps you explore more.. There also more sifu here willing to share more info wink.gif

Hi guys,
Noobie here need your recommendation.

Been using Aqua di Gio for quite some time. Ok for office but too 'formal' for weekend use.
So I'm looking for something more suitable for weekend. I'll be either at the park or mall most of the time, so I need something active and fresh. I don't like fruity smell though.
*
ADG always the best and safe scent to wear in office or probably air-cond environment.Due to the weak longevity.

Here's some nice weekend fresh scent worth try out :

- Ck Escape
- Hugo Boss Unlimited
- Burberry Weekend
- Versace Pour Homme / Eau Fraiche
- Bvlgari Pour Homme Extreme ( Office scent too )

Happy Sniffing wink.gif

Weekend scents should be carefree and relax,  clinique happy man is a very nice option as well as Dior Homme Cologne...

For me these are my most use bottles for the past two months

[attachmentid=4574158]

Work: Tom Ford Grey Vetiver edt,  subtle grapefruit vetiver combo, prefer this over its heavier n smokier edp

Versatile: Creed Green Irish Tweed, Atelier Vetiver Fatal,  good for dunno nak pakai scent apa

Formal occasions: Tom Ford Noir for corporate suit n tie event,  Black Orchid dinner date

Outdoor / weekend: Acqua di Parma Fico di Amalfi,  citrus n fig works perfect under the hot sun hehe

IS true that weekend scents should be carefree and relax... where we recharge back ourself.
And i always stick to my mood and weather when wearing fragrance...
Here's my fav bottle always be with me...
