Hi guys  . i've been reading the posts..interesting thread btw. so i've listed down these colognes to choose from for my next purchase. -Bulgari Aqua -versace eau fraich -sean jean unforgivable -Gucci by gucci (pour homme)--mainly because many say it long lasting I've used Davidoff Cool water before. now i'm using Polo Double Black. How does Bulgari Aqua compares to Cool water? versace eau fraich and Sean Jean Unforgivable are totally new for me.never heard of them before, but would very like to try it. Anyone here can share your opinion for these two? thanks!

It is not long lasting at all ! Its longevity i would say is about 4 hours give or take. A person would practically have to hug u to be able to detect it. I know this because i wasted Rm210 on this a few months ago. When i do wear Gucci by Gucci Pour Homme, I would need about 10 sprays or more. Yes it's that weak. If u can get it for less than half price then it's worth it. Cool Water is a great fragrance IMO but the problem is every guys in Malaysia either owns a bottle or is going to buy at least one in the future. So it's just too common. But I do have a bottle and I wear it often because it's that good Cool Water doesn't last very long though compared to Bulgari Aqua. Personally Bulgari Aqua is a better made fragrance compared to Cool Water and the other two. Your Double Black however would outlast all 3. Eau Fraiche basically smells similar to D&G Light Blue for Women. It's a long story but basically D&G sold the Light Blue formula to Versace and they used it to make Eau Fraiche. Try both and u will see the similarities. Eau Fraiche is good but I prefer Light Blue for Women. Unforgivable is alright, a rather average short lasting fragrance. Unforgivable is a copy of Creed's Millesime Imperial but Unforgivale is 3 times cheaper than the Creed. Millesime Imperial last much longer than Unforgivable though and smells slightly better. I went with Unforgivable because I don't see the economics of spending RM600 on a bottle of perfume. Added on October 25, 2009, 2:09 amUnforgivable gives me longevity of 4 hours on my skin. Yes it's disappointing I know and I usually spray 5 shots So yeah you are not the only one getting very faint sillage from Unforgivable. Not worth the RM200 i spent on it IMO. Once I sprayed 10 sprays all over my body and clothes. That time the whole office smelled of Unforgivable and honestly there were a few who were not pleased with that. Like I said in the earlier post, give Millesime Imperial from Creed a try. And if u got the $$$ buy a bottle  woah u really know a lot about perfumes. i'm not very sure but my double black usually lasts from 1-2 hours only.i spray on my wrist and neck. but maybe it's because i have used it sparingly. 2-3 sprays most of the time  . i think i'm going for the Unforgivable. going for a tester tomorrow! thanks for the input bro

QUOTE(jonny4 @ Oct 25 2009, 09:15 PM) 1-2 hrs ? Impossible that it's so short lasting. 1 spray on my arm and it lasts at least 5 hours. Don't be fooled by the top notes because they never last. really?? i never knew a thing about first note or base note before i join in this thread but come to think of it I think you're right. the scent is still there in the afternoon even if i sprayed it in the morning. it's just not strong enough to be noticed without sniffing.haha oh where can i find/test versace eau freich and Sean Jean Unforgivable? do they have it in Parkson KLCC?
