I believe that each fragrance is produced for different purposes, office, night out, cuddling moments, high-class exclusive events, sports, casual wear, whatever. Some can make girls go bananas over you (and guys too, but they might be some homo fags) and vice versa. Or, some will scare away chicks (those old teacher's scent, grandfather scent, get-u-smelling-like-a-bug-spray scent, kit-leng kia scents).
I'm not much of a true fragrance collector as I only collect fragrances that suits my liking. I don't have much for now, but I'm sure I'll be getting more in the future (YSL La Nuit De L'homme and Creed Green Irish Tweed is next on the list).
An introduction to you people who are new to fragrances, first of all, I must insist that these fragrances do serve it's purpose as long as you pick them up carefully with lots of research. You can get a lot of information and reviews on sites such as Basenotes.
Moving on to the type of fragrances, there are several common types which are gourmand (sweet scents), aquatics, green, oriental, citrus and so much more in the market. Talking about market, the fragrances you get to see at Parkson, Tangs, Takashimaya, Metrojaya in most of the malls around Malaysia are Designer fragrances. Designer houses are those clothing brands such as Chanel, Versace, DKNY, FCUK, YSL, Dunhill, Elizabeth Arden, Burberry, C.Dior, CK, and the list goes on (u get the gist of it). Which means that these fragrances are mass produced by the designer brands to suit their designs, occasions and whatever shit events they have in mind. Next there's the 'supermarket fragrances' (well that's the way I label them as) are those brands like Enchanteur(whichever the way they spell it, idk), Playboy, Adidas, Dashing etc2 are cheaper ones with (of course) cheaper smelling scents. Finally, there's the niche fragrances, produced by companies that only produces fragrances ie, Creed, Le Labo, Bond No.9, etc. If you want natural scents, strange scents, out of Earth scents, they do produce them, it's just that you gotta go search for it all over since the local fragrance market is not as vast as the foreign market. But these do come with a price. =)
Owh, there's also the RM10 stuffs labeled designer fragrances (cap ayam, cap itik, cap belalang fragrances). These are the most annoying ones as they last an hour and you gotta reapply them when they fade away (and they smell really fake).
Well, some of you might say this:
'Teehehehehehe..i'll just buy the cheapos and wear them, as long as i think i smell good, who cares wtf im wearing!F*ck u jack!Go on with your expensive shits like an idiot!i can get the same scents cheap. 'Mengapa Bayar Lebih?Belilah dgn harga borong!'
sorry Myd*n, im nt saying u sell cheapos.
Well, they might be cheap, but who knows what these nutjobs put in those products. Think for urself, have those China-made Nikki, Neki, Pooma, Leepok, Panesonic, Sonny, Nokla stuffs out perform the originals?
Okay, so to start off the fragrance section for my blog, I'll introduce the scent that I think is hands down, the best I've had so far.
Chanel Allure Homme Sport!review coming up as soon as I've dissected this scent.
So much for now, adios!
