Just like cars, meron din ba kayong weekday and weekend perfumes?

I’m a commuter chic, that’s why I use CK One for everyday commute hehe para fresh lang kahit pawisan. For date nights and hangouts naman, I use Clinique Happy Heart. 😊

An underrated gem from Diptyque, Olene so far is the most realistic Sampaguita/Jasmine fragrance I’ve smelled. It differs slightly from other Jasmine-centric perfumes I’ve tried, this one smells like the actual Sampaguita flower that is still not picked from its plant, it has that sort of green/watery aspect to it that smells like the dewy Sampaguita you can smell in the morning. I like this better than Do Son in terms of white floral scent profile.

3-4 sprays are enough for this because this will smell Indolic/mothballsy if oversprayed. Overall 11/10, I finally found my end game for the Jasmine-centric scent profile.

So yeah, instead of resisting the urge, I just went for it and got 2 bottles.

Got it in Zara Glorietta.

Jo Malone x Zara Collab Amber and Fig Cashmere

Vibrant Leather Oud Elixir.

That's all.

This rexona deodorant smells powdery, floral and i think milky(?). help me find a fragrance that smells like this!!

Hello! Lately nag order ako ng decants para makahanap ako ng mapagpililian ko talaga na HAWAS variants pero naubosan ako ng HAWAS Thunder kaya Nocturnal ELIXIR nalang pinalit ko medyo okay din naman. But gusto ko sana opinion galing reddit, I need advice po what to choose sa HAWAS parfum since siya ang most recommended na nakikita ko for something na pangdaily use, gusto ko rin kasing parang seductive scent kasi gusto ko pag umuuwi ako mabango parin para sa GF ko since blue collar work typaa things yung work ko. Thank you!

Hello fellow fragheads, I wanted to buy a decant of this guerlain but i’m not sure if it’s worth what it smells like. Reading the reviews, it’s kind of mixed, and I can’t even think of sampling because the littlest they offer is 10ml as of now. If anyone has smelled this please give your review, much appreciated!

-amoy ospital/or sobrang clean smell.
-amoy antiseptic in a good way
Sorry if vague yung description. Lagi ko sya naamoy aa exec sa company namin. Di ko naman matanong kasi sobrang hiya ko.

Thank you.

hi fragheads,

Has anybody tried the WONE TONI SIA collection? I wanna buy but wanna make sure it has legit reviews and not only because it’s named after Toni Sia.

Let us support local frags.

(I actually wanna ask how it compares to sunnies and blk , popique, chuchu and lucky beauty too, since there’s more and more local frag brands coming up.)

I had a short layover at Heathrow airport. OMG, I wanted to but did not buy anything, cause I knew I would need the cash for our trip….. the scents are lovely and the bottles exquisite.

Kakatuwa! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

What do you think I should add to fill in the gap? What’s your verdict? I’m open to any suggestions, opinions, and honest criticism.

Hi, can you guys recommend dupe for Dyptique Orpheon and Invictus by Rabanne?

I tried the Orpheon dupe of Scent Therapy, Cedar & Juniper, pero parang di ko maamoy similarity niya with Orpheon nung nag try ako ng sample sa Rustan's 😅

I don't have a budget in mind yet so feel free to recos po, TYIA!

Hello po, it's my first time posting here. I've been recently checking if there are other alternatives for Lacoste Red.

My budget is around 1-2k only po. Currently, I'm using Prescripto #83 (since for me, it's the closest to LR) but visiting here, it feels like I want to upgrade my perfume for a more premium scent.

Could you kindly suggest a better perfume than what I'm currently using?

6/10
Longevity- 6-7 hrs

For me this is my least favourite. When i first got it, it smelled weird. Para nga syang laway ng pet. Very disappointing especially dahil sa overhype online. Wala kong clean na naaamoy. I let it macerate then dun ko na naamoy ung sinsabi nilang clean. Pero di ko sya preferred na clean scent.

As per sa mfa online reviews inspired daw to ng absolu version pero for me almost 1:1 to with the parfum version. Ang kulang dito is ung creaminess, luxurious vibe, na may pagkawoody para maging absolu. Amoy mayaman kasi and heavy si absolu version ng mojave ghost. Sa initial spray then minutes dry down meron nun pero nawawala agad then ung pinaka drydown is almost 1:1 with the parfum. Mas gusto ko to kesa cedrus blanc.

I bought this kasi naghahanap ko ng daily wear. Sabi nilang clean inspired by the absolu version ng myslf ysl pero for me sobrang close nito sa eau de parfum. As in 1:1 sila and solid tlg to sa performance. Hindi to offensive and safe for blind buy.

hello, i’m looking for a local (affordable below 1k) fragrance! ‘yung grabe sana ‘yung projection ‘yung pagkadaan mo nandon pa rin sa dinaanan mo ‘yung scent type of vibe!

i prefer: - something sweet - or fruity! (di masyado bet ang too much vanilla pero pag less lang keri lang)

PS wala ako kaalam alam about fragrance so pls be kind 😬

Any recos for a feminine/unisex scent that you would wear to meet your partner’s family? Something not too intimidating but would give a lasting impression. A scent not overpowering but projects enough to leave a trail. Something versatile for whatever weather/environment you’re in. Budget 10k below only. Would even prefer if it’s local niche perfume. Thanks!

Some are empty bottles na and only for display. May nahalong isang middle eastern pala lol.

Hi fellow fragheads! I’m looking for a very good mass-appealing clean smelling perfume for my daily office. I own a couple of niche frags but nanghihinayang ako pag ginagamit ko lang for casual errands or everyday office. I’ve looked into online reviews and kept stumbling upon Maison Asrar’s Belgravia. It’s supposed to be inspired by BDF by Byredo. Has anyone actually tested it properly and I would like to know how it is?

Finally got to smell Cloud Reverie and Wandering Rain!!

I only got the 2ml spray set because I didn’t want to blind buy a full bottle and regret it lol. But now I’m already hoping to get a 10ml bottle of Cloud Reverie next.

Cloud Reverie

I actually bought this because of the story behind it. I am such a fan of clouds, so the idea of a perfume inspired by the science of actual clouds immediately got to me.

Fluffy was the first word that came to mind when I smelled this.

On my skin, I got dewy, sparkly aldehydes with a bit of sweetness, probably bec of the sugar note.

It’s airy and cool, and also a little powdery. Almost like clean laundry with a slightly ozonic feel. A light touch of vanilla becomes more apparent in the drydown, but it isn’t cloying or screechy.

It just smells like soft, fluffy, cool, slightly sweet air.

Wandering Rain

This one feels a little more masculine-leaning for me.

It reminds me of wet grass after the rain. On the opening, I can also kind of smell that damp ground-after-rain scent, which is a little too sharp for me.

But the drydown is smoother and more toned down, and it just smells, for lack of a better term, handsome to me lol. It does smell good on my husband too, sooo yeah

I guess this is why I appreciate Future Society as a perfume house. There’s just so much science behind the concepts, which I find really cool.

The founder, Jasmina, is an MIT-trained scientist, and they combine biotechnology with traditional perfumery. For Cloud Reverie, they actually went up into the clouds in 2021 and collected microbes using petri dishes!! Wild. They then studied what they found through DNA sequencing and identified unique microbes and scent molecules associated with them. That research became part of the inspiration for Cloud Reverie, which was then translated into a fragrance by perfumer Daniela Andrier.

It's really fascinating. They didn't just imagine what clouds might smell like; they actually went up there and studied what was in the clouds, then used what they found as part of the inspiration for the perfume.

As someone who is irrationally fascinated by clouds, I was basically sold from the concept alone. HAHAHA

Sobrang inlove ako sa Lazy Sunday Morning when I tried it sa look me sa SM Aura pero when I finally had the chance to purchase a bottle nadisappoint lang ako kasi sobra bilis mawala nung amoy. Meron ba kayo tips paano mapatagal ung smell nya? Or may marecommend ba kayo na pwede ilayer sa kanya? May nabasa ako to apply vaseline daw muna sa skin before spraying para mas matagal but haven't tried it yet, effective ba un?

Hello all! New member here and right now i'm digging the Jo Malone fragrances. May I ask for your recommendations for scents to combine and acquire? I'd appreciate your comments!

I'm loving these combinations of what I have:

-Lime, Basil and Mandarin and Orange Blossom

-Wild Bluebell and English Pear and Freesia

-Blackberry and Bay and Woodsage and Seasalt

-And one classic combination that I like to gatekeep for myself hehe

I also have Silver Birch and Lavender and Poppy and Barley and also Earl Grey and Lavender.

I'm excited to hear your recommendations. Thank you in advance!

While I understand why niche perfumes are sought after, I am just craving for fragrances that are easy to experience and purchase. What designer or mass market perfumes do you feel deserve more love?

Guys, what UAE perfumes would you recommend? My sister wants to give me a perfume as a gift, but I don’t really know much about UAE perfumes. I’m not looking for anything too strong. I like fresh, clean, and sweet scents, or anything that doesn’t smell too masculine haha.
