FRAGRANCE/PERFUME LOVERS LOUNGE!/perfume addiction!

I love Kenzo Flower tall bottle.

Sir, are the after shave as well as the Eau de cologne of the Old Spice same as it was under SHULTON? Any differences between foreign made and Indian made? Which one is unique among which you mentioned above? Thanks.

The Old Spice is completely different. The ones I am very partial to is the Bay Rum and Clubman Pinaud.

I don't like perfumes much. If at all I buy it will be sandalwood only

 

[ajuvignesh]

I want to try Davidoff cool water intense. Where can I buy genuine perfumes online? I was told there are many diluted perfumes in disguise online. Is there any store that sells genuine perfumes in India?

Hi Jenson, you have a fantastic collection of perfumes. You have full range from Rogue . Mousee Illuminee is the famous one. I could see the vintage version of Heritage, Tom Ford Grey Vetiver. But I couldn't see the name of other items. Best wishes.

I loved Rogue's "Tabac Vert" which I used many years ago.

 

[iaudio]

well...i'm a fragrance head and love the nuances of perfumes...there's so much happening out there..

at one point i used to write lotta reviews on a forum - Basenotes - Reviews by jenson

also i used to have close to 200 niche perfumes...i've now reduced it to 70 odd..they are mainly from
Serge Lutens
The Different Companay (perfumer Jean Claude Ellena's firm - he is the in house perfumer for Hermes)
Parfumerie Generale - Chemical whiz and perfumer extraordinaire - pierre Guillame
Montale - Oudh based perfumes from Paris..
Tom Ford's private Collection
Tauer Perfumes - swizz based chemical whiz, he is a one man show.

+ many more...

in designer perfumes, respected ones are
Guerlain - Heritage, Habit Rouge, L'Instant, Bois d'armenie (Shoppers stop in malad and juhu stocks these)

Dior - Homme - it's a revolutionary Iris based fragrance, it;s formulation is toned down a bit now, but still, one of the best out there

Chane Pour Monsieur - classic, fragrance for the matured

+

many more

Jenson, very interesting list. Montale is my favourite as I like oud based fragrances, supplemented by Mancera.

Thomas Kosmala is BR540 inspired. When you want to announce your presence, go for it. Also, please don't blind buy. Always try decant first.

Here is the list of verified sellers for anyone interested.


Verified list of sellers from DFA subreddit

Also, for people who are not completely aware of fragrance community, this is a guide to get you started.

Understanding the fragrance community and sellers

For any other query, feel free to ask. I am quite active on DFA sub, and have dealt with various decanters and resellers. I decant myself for my friends and family just to keep the overall cost down, not as a mean to earn.

I am new to the world of perfumes. So, recently bought davidoff cool water intense from Nykaa man.
Buy Davidoff Cool Water Man Intense Eau De Parfum Online (nykaaman.com)
Even with 7 sprays the scent is not lasting. I sprayed two on behind both ears, one on the back of neck, two on the chest over my shirt and one on each wrists.
My wife didn't realize I had perfumes on until I came really close to her. Is this normal or had I got a fake perfume?

I have used the Cool water, Oceanic edition and it is good. The fragrance is mild, not over powering & remains for approx 5 to 7 hours.

Nyka sells authentic perfumes. The perfume needs to settle down for atleast a week. The molecules in perfumes get disturbed due to transit heat and hence may not perform for few days. Coolwater intense has a very good projection and performance. Let it macerate for few in the cupboard.
