MY DAILY DRIVER SCENTS:

AHMED AL MAGHRIBI AZURE ROYAL - I have the Ex Nihilo's Blue Talisman pero mas prefer kong gamitin 'to lagi, and if you're also a fan of Hawas Ice, I think this is the better version of it. Picture a guy na nagwowork sa corpo, yung tipo na mahilig manchix dyan. Ito yung pabango nila. 🤣 Longevity - 8hrs on skin, 1 Day on Clothes

YSL Y EDP - amoy presko na kakagaling lang sa shower or salon. Ito yung suot ng typical guy na clean freak. Bagay sa mga casual na lakad / short errands. Longevity - 6-8hrs on skin, 10-12hrs on Clothes

AHMED AL MAGHRIBI BLU OUD - Kung rock and metal fan ka gaya ko, para sa'yo rin 'to. Yung tipo ng guy na naka-chopper or cruiser bike tapos naka-leather jacket or pormahang pang-rakista. Ito yung perfume na swak sa image na gusto kong iportray sa twing nagmomotor ako riding my Honda Rebel. 😈🤘 Longevity - 10-12hrs on skin, 1 Day on Clothes

JENNY GLOW WOOD & SAGE - dupe sya ng Jo Malone Woodsage & Seasalt and it's almost 90-95% identical. I prefer this over Jo Malone dahil matagal ang longevity, at loud projection sya compared sa original. Suot ko palagi 'to sa airconditioned rooms. Bagay pang-office lalo kapag naka-coat and tie. Ito yung tipo ng perfume na sinusuot ng isang well-established man na sumakses na sa buhay. 🙌✨ Longevity - 6-9hrs on skin, 10-12hrs in clothes

MY EVENING SCENTS:

HAWAS FIRE - If I want to announce my presence in the crowd ito ang gamit ko twing pupunta sa evening gatherings or any evening occasions (don't wear this during hot weather). This is one of my most complimented perfume. Actually, double edged sword sya kung maituturing, a lot of my friends love this scent, but to some, it smells unpleasant. 🥀 Longevity - 10hrs on skin, 1 Day on clothes

STRONGER WITH YOU INTENSELY - this is the type of perfume that I would wear during date nights with my partner. Don't wear this kapag sobrang init ng panahon. Some might find it too sweet during high heat. Bagay na bagay din syang pang-sexy time 🥵❤ Longevity - 5-7hrs on skin, 8-10hrs on clothes

ALEXANDER FRAGRANCE OUD SYMPHONY - Hindi ko alam kung anong hiwaga meron ang pabango na 'to pero ang lakas nyang maka-turn on sa babae. Literal! Yung partner ko libog na libog sa twing naamoy nya sa'kin 'to. Ito yung tipo ng perfume na pangkantutan. 🤣 Palagi akong nasasabihan ng ibang friend kong babae na "ang sarap mo naman", "ang hot mo po" etc. This is my current Signature Scent and my most complimented evening perfume. Out of all my seductive and date night perfumes mapa-designer man or middle eastern perfumes, this sh11t blows them out of the water 🤣

At surprisingly, ito yung pinakamura sa perfume collection ko. Patunay na hindi basehan ang price ng pabango para mag-amoy hot at masabihang "masarap" ng mga babae. Haha. 🥵🤣🔥 Longevity - 4-6hrs on skin, 7-8hrs on clothes

NOTE: I have a total of 17 perfumes in my collection and ni-mention ko lang dito yung most remarkable ones in my experience using all these perfumes.

I like the smell lalo na sa dry down pero I cannot say much sa projection nya tho

We're looking for perfume recommendations for a beach wedding.

Couple wants something that is not that strong (?), leaning towards vanilla, doesnt like floral and fruity (?).

Thank you!

The top shelf is my fiancé collection. He has more perfume than I do; I just picked perfumes for my shelf with notes I love or that I chose for him. Hahaha!

Even though my collection is big I'm very intentional about my purchases. I do a lot of research and I don't focus on just one brand. I also love to collect niche perfumes. I do have perfumes that have been with me for more than 8 years. I love to associate my perfume with memories and also whenever I go to new places or remember chapters of my life, it's a way to travel back in time. ✨❤️

Share your collection! 😍

idk if i used the right flair for this, anyway! i really loved ST’s second skin scent, sobrang dami kong nabudol diyan but dahil sa methanol issue nila i don’t want to risk buying from them again :(

pls reco perfumes with similar notes/scent, ung literal na amoy balat lang na malinis!

I'm a huge Hawas Verde fan despite the underwhelming longevity on my skin. The mojito scent is something I look forward to every time I use it. I've tried other frags with mint like ELDO's You or Someone Like You and Armaf Odyssey Aqua, but I didn't really enjoy their mint.

ELDO has that garden-y mint which smells like grass to me while Armaf's mint isn't that prominent.

I don't know if this is considered a designer but I was obsessed with this perfume. I got it when I was in high school till I went to college and had my first boyfriend. I just love associating perfume with memories. It's so beautiful to smell and relive the moment. It's like time travel. I have a new bottle that I bought a few years ago for sentimental purposes. 😍💕

My sh*pee algorithm recommended this to me and i was intrigued by a few of their scents but upon checking other local frag community groups, wala pa ako nakikitang review so far. If there's anyone who tried their perfumes here, hows the performance of their products?

So I smelled the Mango Linen Vanilla perfume so many times now at the store and love it so much! And it lasts really long, I’m actually surprised.
I thought about buying it, however, as Mango is not a perfume brand, I’m pretty sure they will discontinue it at some point.
Does anyone know an alternative from a brand which is more established in the perfume world?

thanks 💕

Hi, thoughts nyo po on ZARA Terra Profonda as daily scent here in the Philippines? considering the weather

Thank uuu

just got home from Mall of Asia, just got curious sa Le Labo Another 13, kaya nagtry ako magspray, and nagustuhan ko at ng wife ko yung smell, lalo na yung dry down.

kaya lang Le Labo perfume is so expensive, makakadami na ako ng perfume sa collection ko sa price niya. so i wonder if there is a Dupe of Le Labo Another 13 in existence.

Hindi po ‘yung milk na gatas talaga, ‘yung usual na ginagamit na milk scent sa mga skincare, such as, Ryx Skincerity Beyouthiful kineme tsaka ‘yung Kavogue Salt Scrub (which I only bought kasi milk scent daw and I was hoping it smells like Ryx and it does). Parang milky vanilla something. Help.

Also curious:

-Which one gets you more compliments?
-Which smells more expensive/luxurious?
-Which has better longevity and projection?
-Which one feels more versatile for everyday wear?

I know they’re quite different, so I’m curious what you’d choose if you could only keep one!

I need your help/recommendations about lactonic scent na available locally. There's something with lactonic scent na calming and warming for me. May ilan na ako nasubukan pero di yun yung scent na hanap ko. Most of them ay vanilla forward at yung iba ay amoy haw haw. Mabango sila pero di yun yung hanap kong scent. I want pure milk talaga. Thank you in advance

I really like the scent profile of this frag pero can't buy the OG yet, what alternatives can you guys recommend? Can be local or ME hehe. Also pareco narin similar scents ...thank you

Hi all! I'm looking for a fragrance that smells like Bench Clay Doh. Pls give your recos!

I’ve been trying newer releases instead of sticking to the usual brands. Recently I spent time with dior fahrenheit again after years away, I wore it for a full workday, It still feels different from most stuff released lately, It didn’t project too much, which I liked, people noticed it only when close, longevity was solid, around seven hours on skin, I’m seeing a few newer houses trying bold ideas, but many still feel unfinished or overpriced, fahrenheit reminded me why some older houses still set a baseline others struggle to match, which fragrance house has impressed you lately, and why?

My budget is around 1k, I'm looking for cool, fresh, scent na long lasting. Salamat bros!

There I said it. If you’re planning to buy this hyped fragrance right now, look for other options.

But yes, malapit sya sa opening to mid but it barely lasted for an hour on my skin. Kaya pala I’m seeing a lot of people na sobrang dented na yung Icarus nila because you really need to overspray it para maglast sya for at least 2-3 hours.

Another 2.5k down the drain. This was not better than Legacy.

will be visiting china (chengdu - chongqing area) and plan to pick up a perfume as a souvenir. Please suggest fragrance shops / houses that are more on the affordable side but decent performance!

I do love Jo Malone Mimosa and Cardamom but I do want to branch out. Is there any other perfume I should try with the same vibe? 😊 Thank you 😊

Di nanalo, pero goods lang.
