I am not sure whether the discount places like Just Parfum have it. I remember only seeing PS Story in department stores. You can also try online and on LYN.

I like neither. Adventure has almost zero longevity and The Beat gives me a headache LOL. If u put a gun to my head I will choose Adventure and apply 10+ sprays haha.

Haha...good luck.

Can't help u as I have not tried both before.

LOL...both would make good name for frags

Space, LOL that's a really long post but what's the reason u summarize all 62 pages of this thread into one post ? Doesn't really sound like random thoughts to me. But thanks for the feedback for the benefit of other members that are too lazy to go through the thread.

Anyways I don't think it is possible to get Thierry Mugler Cologne here anymore. But if u r lucky u might still get to test it at Parkson KLCC counter. If it's no longer there just try Creed Orirginal Vetiver, Mugler Cologne is very similar just much lighter.

PS Story, Mugler Cologne, Creed Original Vetiver, Lalique Encre Noire and to a certain extent Guerlain Vetiver all have some similarities because they all are vetiver dominant frags. IMHO Story doesn't smell that similar to Mugler Cologne and I do prefer Cologne over Story due to the freshness and versatility. Guerlain Vetiver is very different to both Story and Cologne even though all are vetiver dominant. GV can be considered a more classic smelling vetiver frag with a strong tobacco note. I would say GV is more of an acquired taste while Story and Cologne will appeal to more ppl. Encre Noire is very bitter and not many will find it appealing.

I bought my 75ml Guerlain Vetiver EDT for around RM200 or less in early 2008 so I can't really remember properly. The best place to test/buy Guerlain frags would be at the Parkson KLCC counter.

Tangs Pavilion got Acqua Di Parma.

You probably tried the wrong one dude. A*Men is never be described as a citrus happy fragrance LOL. It's a gourmand and meant to smell like chocolate. it's very sweet too. Maybe u tried Ice Men instead ? What colour was the bottle ? A*Men is either in a black rubber flask or silver metal flask...both with a blue star in the middle.

Caroline Herrera counters are even more common. All u need to do is to step into any department store in KL/PJ and u will definitely find a Caroline Herrera counter and maybe a a Thierry Mugler counter.

Bulgari Aqua is still on the top of my list when it comes to aquatics. But the other 2 are not bad either. Other good aquatics I have tried and owned are Davidoff Silver Shadow Altitude, Versace Pour Homme, Chanel Allure Homme Sport, Chanel Platinum Egoiste and Azzaro Chrome. Not all are aquatics I must stress but all are fresh and last better than average.

Some testers are in metal flask and some in rubber. They are still selling the EDT in metal flask but only comes in 100ml and the price is around RM350-RM400 iirc. It's possible u tried some other A*Men flanker, like Ice Men (transparent greenish blue bottle) or Pure Malt (dark brown rubber flask)...the original A*Men comes in a black rubber flask.

I have never been a fan of Issey Miyaki Pour Homme and its flankers so if u ask me I'll definitely go with Bulgari Aqua hehe.

It's not too expensive...I bought my 50ml for around RM150-160...it was part of a gift set that came with 50ml EDT and 100ml matching shower gel. Keep a look out for the gift sets as 212 does come in really value for money gift sets...father's day next month so there will be tons of gift sets available fr every brand.

As long as u store the perfume properly, it can last a good number of years.

Yup that's right. light and temperature fluctuations are the main enemies of perfume. I store them in the original boxes in a cool dark drawer. I don't bother having them on display.

Let me guess...the malay guy with the ponytail ? LOL.

Lanvin Sport is alright but a bit short lasting and light..not worth the RM200+ price tag.

My fav fr Lanvin is Arpege Pour Homme.

LOL yeah 212 does have that foody/oily smell initially but after a while it settles nicely.

GPH II is one of my fav light scents. Lasts quite a good while but don't expect the person next to u to be able to smell it haha.

IMO u can use The One for both office/evening as long as u don't overspray. It may smell strong at first but trust me, after an hour u might even forget u have it on. I was rather disappointed when I bought because the first hour of The One was great, the next 5-6 hours was uninspiring.

It's been available at SASA close to 2 yrs edi. I don't find it worth the RM200+ price.

I find Black XS to be rather long lasting and has decent sillage. But yeah, GPH II is much weaker sillage wise compared to Black XS...it's not that bad la but it's one of those clean smelling frags that doesn't project much. U could try spraying 10+ sprays haha.
