What perfume do you guys recommend for a young, mature looking male?
I'm a completely newbie to perfumes.
I'm looking for a long-lasting perfume which most younger generations find it attractive.
I'm only 18, to be specific.
My budget would be somewhere around rm100-200. I don't mind if it's more than the range as long as it's extraordinary nice.

Versace Pour Homme would be a good for you. It's long lasting, appeals to most teenagers but there's a touch of class and maturity to Versace Pour Homme. If im not mistaken a 50ml is retailing for RM180. I am suggesting Versace Pour Homme because most ppl your age love aquatic fragrances. Paco Rabanne Black XS would suit a 18 yr old very well too. It smells mainly of strawberries but girls really like this. This one is long lasting too.

On the other end of the spectrum, you could try something a little more unique like YSL Rive Gauche Pour Homme, Dior Fahrenheit and Dior Homme. All are long lasting colognes.

Thank you for your quick recommendation. I would try testing those perfumes some day.
By the way, what perfume do you recommended if I would like to buy another one for everyday usage? (classes at college for instance)

Bulgari Aqua would be good as an everyday fragrance. Unique enough to set u apart.
YSL Live Jazz would be a good option too. Also have a uniqueness to it..fresh but not an aquatic.

I don't think it's rejected or defective perfume. It's all about the marketing and their targeted customers base. I have yet to smell Playboy perfumes because they look so tacky. You get what u pay for really. So don't expect Playboy perfumes to last the whole day. zYou won't smell very unique either as many guys would have bought one too.

U mean the new D&G Anthology Series ?

I don't mean to spoil your excitement but all 5 in the series are kind of boring. But the price seems quite ok.

If u use the search function to search this thread, u can get even more info. btw, the search function is located below.

Unless u want us to spoon feed you then I'll be glad to oblige.

There u go...not so hard right.

Angel Men is insanely strong and very very potent. A mere 2 sprays will last you for more than 12 hrs. Fragrance wise Angel Men/A*Men is a very chocolate, coffee and tar dominant fragrance. Some say it's one of the best gourmands out there and the rest say it's the worst fragrance ever made. I'm not a fan of Angel Men. Angel Men comes in 2 types of bottle/flacon. First is a regular rubber flask like bottle. Another more expensive comes in a full metal case with a refillable bottle inside. The rubber flask variant is quite cheap (RM160, 50ml). But the metal casing one might not be available here because of the price.

LOL Believe it or not...Kouros remains one of YSL's top selling men fragrance. The next time u smell Kouros on someone, that person could be me. Do stop and say hi before u run away biggrin.gif
it took me months of wearing Kouros before I really liked it. The initial blast maybe too much for most people but after about an hour it changes into an excellent scent.

M7 is a totally different experience. I would say it smells a lot like cincau right after spraying. When it calms down a bit, u will get more of a cherry cough syrup smell. Finally after a bout a few hours M7 will smell mainly like vanilla and a lot of wood (oud wood). But your experience may vary from mine biggrin.gif

Live Jazz is very good IMO. Smells fresh and youthful but does not smell like an Aqua Di Gio clone. Has better longevity than most fresh fragrances too.

YSL is famous for making "love it or hate it and nothing in between" fragrances.

Did u try Live Jazz and Kouros on paper or on skin ?

They used to be available at City Square Centre, KL (next to Crown Princess Hotel) along Jln Tun Razak. However the mall has been bought over by MGPA and currently is under heavy renovation. It will be renamed to Intermark Mall after the up lifting. Hopefully CDG fragrance will be able to make a come back to the new mall.

You might want to try fragrances that are less commonly worn. Nothing wrong with what u have only that a lot of other guys wear those fragrances too. But in the end it's personal preference.
