i got CK be, Banana Republic Slate and Cordovan.
3 different type of smells but i like it!

phero x??

dun think really work...hehehehe

is perfumes got expired ?

Always keep it in a box and store in a cool place.. It will last for years that way..

Yup... the alcohol will reacts throughout time...... and it will changes the smell and the quality of the perfume.

And the best way to keep it is to put in the FRIDGE.... i learn that... and of course though that you already bought but new and haven opened yet. you can try to put in the fridge...

I'm using Issey Miyake - L'eau D'issey and Kenzo - L'eau Par...
For me da smell is just nice...

I have a question tho: should I go for designer perfume or the more expensive branded perfume? quality wise which one is better? are designer perfumes more inferior compared to expensive branded perfumes or are they the same? does one last longer than the other or how?


designer perfume only rm140 per 50ml while the branded ones (chanel, issey, diesel etc) costs around 200+ O.O

Fragrances in the >100 price range are almost all designer brands and have similar high quality.. What you really want to categorize is 'mainstream' and 'niche' brands.. Mainstream brands are like CK, Hugo, Bvlgari, Burberry, etc. Basically stuff you can find in stores everywhere. Mainstream scents are more 'commercial' in a sense that they rarely experiment with exotic smells and new scent mixes.. Thus, they are more acceptable by the public..

Niche brands on the other hand are more radical with their scents and most of them turn out very unique and distinctive. But some people might not like them as well as others.. That is why they cater to a smaller market and are limited in availability. They also cost a bit more than mainstream perfumes.. Examples of niche brands are like L'Artisan, Lorenzo Villoresi, and Creed..

yonggoh,

u a basenotes member too rite..haha..i remember the pic of your frags...one of the best.

omg creed

yonggoh how much did you bought your creed for? I know kens apochatery in klcc sells it but never dare to even enquire coz too expensive...

am still in the process of choosing one and i really prefer creed since my ex's dad uses it haha.

jonny4,

Yes thats me!
i still buy some bottles now and then but at a far less frequency now...

joey,
I had a friend buy me a the small creed bottles (1oz i think) from UK
it was 50 pounds (or was it euros...forgot)

+_+

looks like my 1st perfume wont be creed *cries silently*

Hmmm noticed that no one uses "Lauder for Men" its nice but its limited edition if i am not mistaken...

I've fahrenheit by Dior... kinda reminds me of duku langsat smell.. hahah

Lauder For Men not limited edition. It's just old (released in 1985). So kinda hard to get in msia..

Dior Fahrenheit one of my top 10 perfume..i don't get a duku langsat smell but i do get a motor oil/petrol smell that is very unique.
