Any mini perfume collection owner here?

I've got 80+ full bottles last time I checked and around 20 decants in 5ml and 10ml sizes. A lot of 1ml samples but I don't know the exact number.

Robinsons The Gardens currently has a perfume discount section. It's been there since January/February this yr. Discounts up to 50% on brands like Issey Miyake, Cartier, Kenzo CK and a few more. I bought my 50ml Cartier Declaration for RM100.

Do check it out if interested.

Hi, Jonny, would like to ask usually where do you shop for Hermes perfume,  want to try Terre d'HErmes, Hiris and Orange Verte,
do you remember how much you paid for them? thanks a lot smile.gif
*
Hermes counter lo. Parkson Pavilion n KLCC and Isetan The Gardens r places with Hermes counters. I can't remember the exact price but TdH I paid RM260 for 50ml and Concentree d'Orange Verte cost me RM240. that was about 2 yrs ago so by now prices have already increased.

U can test at Hermes boutiques too. KLCC n Pavilion both got. The range at boutiques r larger too.

Jonny, is the perfume discount section available always? Exclusively to member card holders only?

Right now I was thinking of Gucci by Gucci again and JPG Le Male.  Do you think they have both of these bottles discounted?
*
The SA there told me the discount section will be available till the stock finishes. but still it's up to their discretion I guess. no not exclusive to card members.

Other than the brands I listed in a previous post I can't remember what other brands they have on sale. my focus was on Cartier n Cartier only LOL.

the discount section is quite limited so dun have high hopes. it's located near the cashier. the testers r kept at the cashier so do request them fr the SA or cashier. stock is a bit old too but for the price I think it's quite worth it. My Cartier Declaration was manufactured in 2007 and still smells alright.

That's really old.  So they do have testers up for sale too. 
Alright, thanks.  biggrin.gif

no testers for sale.

if u do buy anything fr de discount section, look closely at the frag's plastic wrap around the box. a few there have been opened b4 n then resealed...probably used for display. try ur best to get the unsealed ones.

Among all the departmental stores like Isetan, Tangs, Parkson, Jusco.

Which offers the cheapest and comes with value gift sets?
Mother's day is next month, I'm thinking of choosing a gift set for my mom which is worthwhile!
*
Parkson n Metro has the most variety but u gotta scout around. diff places (even same dept store chain) can have diff type of gift sets.

moreover they are bored, as half the time nobody wanna have a long chat with them


Added on April 16, 2011, 9:27 pm

Tangs would be a good choice if you are looking into slightly niche like cdg,l'artisan,creed,annick...

normal designers, parkson and all are good enough...

btw

just went to tangs orchard,

tested surge lutens - chergui, annick - apom....

jonny,
i went to nearby area, got ysl m7 for a really good deal.. last pcs there..
and they have dunhill edition 5ml vials, got them also...smells exactly like yours
*
M7 is really worth getting since its in limited supply nowadays. some even say it's gonna be discontinued soon. reformulated version ?

hoho means my Edition is ori punya la.

Where is the discount section located?  Yeap I getting gift sets next.  tongue.gif
*
when u enter the Tangs frag floor fr the mall, look to your right and u will see a long counter with gift sets all over. the discount section is somewhere on the counter...that's where it usually is. but if u can't find it just ask the SA.

Here's my collection of scents.

I am now coming to a conclusion that having too many scents is not necessarily a good idea - especially if you want to generate a distinct presence with women.

Most women like the repeat smell of a man they are attracted to - it reminds them of everything about you.  Smelling different every day lessens the distinctness.

But I've found, on the hand, you can attract a broader range of audience, so long as the scents have the maximum variation.

I know - maybe I think about it too much....

nice collection !

Oh... I was expecting it to be expensive haha since it's a Prada.

You don't want to repurchase because you want something new and those perfumes are boring if continuously used for a long period?
Very rare, hardly seen.

seriously open ur eyes when u r at the fragrance n cosmetic floor.

2 spray on my left shoulder, 2 on the right and 2 on the chest.
I don't know is it too choke for other.

The places u apply are usually covered by clothing so the sillage won't be too overwhelming.

try to apply at least 30mins b4 u head out so the frag can settle. its usually the topnotes that choke/delight ppl.

Actually I spray on my cloth instead of my skin.
My mum always nag me say perfume bad for our health.  hmm.gif

try spraying on skin n see. U will get a whole new experience because the frag notes will blend with your own distinct natural smell.

wow. too many spray i guess.
i use use JPG Le Male or Fluer Du Male, 6 spray will suffocate you.

but it differ from one perfume to other since the sillage and projection of it are different. whistling.gif

I really can't be bothered about what u think is the "appropriate" amount to apply. My frag my money. i use as i please.

Hey guys! So, simple question. Mainstream perfume, Gucci by Gucci or Armani Code? Night scent, easy to the nose.
I've got Bulgari Aqua, however the seaweed note tends to be too strong on sunny/sweaty days and the resulting scent will be too sour for my liking. I guess it doesn't fit my skin well.
Personally i've got my vote on Gucci but i'd just like a second opinion. thanks guys smile.gif

Armani Code

Gucci by Gucci is decent but rather weak to make any impression.
