Hi guys, apologies if i posted in the wrong place. But I dont feel this question needs to open a thread. lol.

I'm using one of CK's EDP. I travel almost weekly from Seremban to PJ. or vice versa. I made the mistake of throwing away the perfume box and cap. The perfume is now just attached to the atomizer. So it's really a hassle to bring it along every weekend when I go back.

So I wanted to get a refillable perfume atomizer. From what I've been searching in Lazada, Sephora and Lelong. There are 3 types. 1) those that cost less than RM10. 2) those that is within Rm30. 3) Travalo - RM69.

Anyone tried the Travalo before? Seems to be ori from the reviews. I've tried putting some of the perfume into those Daiso Atomizer before, but when it sprays out, it's not as good as the perfume's atomizer. sweat.gif

Please recommend if you are using any refillable perfume atomizer. icon_rolleyes.gif

I am using travalo and perfume pods.

So far so good. None of my units leaks.....

Very daring this one. Got curry like smell from the cumin.

Oh, so that is what it was unfortunately it was not stronger and punchy than the rose smell from Opus X.

QUOTE(Elinoir @ Feb 16 2019, 11:34 PM)
Terbaik boss. I've never smell this one. Whenever im at the amouage store, this one always slips my mind. Always.

Do try out their ladies line to bro. A few of them smells amazing on guys . For instance If you like amouage gold try out beloved women. It has some vibe from gold men but with a touch of soft leather & florals.

To me its not a feminin kind of florals at all. On me It smells dryer & maybe abit powdery than gold man. I love this one. 😁

Noted Elinoir, thanks for the tips.

Unfortunately I returned the Amouage Fate the same day and exchange to Amouage Opus X

Before decision was made, I have sprayed Opus X on my left hand and Fate on my right hand, after about 30 minutes, I grew to love more for Opus X and went back to exchange, the powerful and striking rosy smell that makes me fall for Opus X while fate smell like any other regular perfume out there.

Where did you purchased your Amouage bro? Was it from Metrojaya MV? So you can exchange back the perfume you bought if you haven't opened the box? This is new to me tongue.gif

Yes The cumin. And sometime the cumin smells like BO. Am not a fan of the note but the cumin in epic woman however is masterfully done. It is noticeable but in a good way and supports the other note in bringing out the uniqueness of the scent.

Opus X is a very dominant rose metallic fragrance. Iinm it is said to be inspired by the violin. Truly a unique scent for me.

Yes, Metro Jaya MV.
Returned unopened box.😁

Yup. I admit its not a performer but im ok with below average performing fragrances. As long as i love the smell. I"ll just bring a decant with me.

Most of the perfume i wear i'll put inside an atomizer. Always stay close with your fragrance. You may have montblanc pens in your pocket. I have montblanc legend intense in mine hehehe. Go go decants 😁

love wood sage & sea salt. Lime basil & mandarin to my nose just smells like kaffir lime leaf lol. English pear & freesia while nice it's too soft to have any wow factor to me. Have you tried out the wild weed & flower line?

Wood sage & sea salt is really good but the smell does not last as long as English pear and lime basil....seen wild weed and flower line but will go to test them out....I am actually targeting Jo Malone Darjeeling Tea next......

Freshly arrived from Doha...
I purchased small bottle nowadays so easier for me to carry around and no need to waste more money to buy decant atomisers.

1. Jo Malone’s Peony and Blush Suede for wifey
2. Jo Malone’s Star Magnolia for me

Just arrived from Sephora Online.
TF Ombré Leather - masculine leather smell
TF Neroli Portofino Acquaint - Initial spray smells exactly like Jasmine flower ( Indian seller selling the white flower by the roadside) but the after effect smell like laundry detergent powder.

Smells like toilet cleaner tongue.gif

Projection is weak, barely lasting on skin. I give it a good 2 hours before reapply.

But it's a great perfume to line with stronger ones.

I usually use one spray of Ombre Nomade and 4~5 sprays of Neroli Portofino Acqua to balance off the super strong smell of the Oud.

A bit of clorox smell too...😁
