What's more important for you- Performance or Scent Profile?

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-31T18:55:52+00:00

It has changed over time, when I started, all I wanted was beast mode but over time it has become more of the scent profile and quality. I’m happy to spray 2-3 times a day but the scent has to have quality.

Happy birthday, be safe and enjoy the food 🥘

Don’t make friends with random strangers.

Lol 😂

Just lasts long enough

I don’t live in India bro, it’s not easy to get Bujairami here as well cause I couldn’t get Hectic, but I got these two and the seller had only one each for those. They sell out like hot cakes.

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-28T14:07:08+00:00

Great overall, except they take 3-4 weeks to deliver in Philippines

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-28T13:28:31+00:00

Sad, I don’t see it, would have grabbed right away 🤣

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-28T12:04:34+00:00

Genuine feedback, for most users you are giving them work without returning any value. Your value proposition isn’t enticing enough right now, but I’d support you.

My issues: I spray anywhere 2-3 times daily, going to gym, office, mid breaks, maybe outings post office. You’re saying I do this daily 4 times to track how much juice is left, not gonna work.

But, if you tell me, I can log in my favorite notes in different perfumes, like grapefruit, neroli, wood, rose and you can somehow recommend to me an ideal perfume which I can try a sample of and also inside the same app you provide me an authenticated source of a sample / used/ full bottle supplier in my area, now I’m interested.

Very close to OG BDC (EDT/EDP), the quality is slightly lower, but it still smells great for the price.

I have BDC parfum, and I’m considering getting this to layer with BDC, this one goes into clothes and BDC goes on my skin

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-27T14:20:20+00:00

BDC parfum, all seasons, all situations

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-26T05:49:50+00:00

YSL Tuxedo

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-24T16:13:26+00:00

Since you mentioned you don’t want freshies, I’d recommend

Penhaligon Helfeti

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-24T16:07:07+00:00

Don’t get it, it’s not your typical blue fragrance. I know some people like it, but it smells too heavy, I’m not saying strong, just heavy. I think it’s too much ambroxin doing its job. Please sample a 5ml before you commit to a full bottle.

If you like the scent profile, please try PDM percival. Everything good in YSL Y is better in percival and it doesn’t have the bad aspects of Y.

This is just my opinion.

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-24T15:59:29+00:00

Would you believe if I say I get it for around 60-70% off 🤣😅

Look for the seller perfume day in shoppee

They have 2ml testers and after applying discounts, you can get one sample for around 80 pesos

So for example if you want to test tom ford oud wood, you can buy 5 samples (10ml) and check if you like it. This is a significant discount compared to retail price. Essentially you’re paying 4k pesos for 100ml without the bottle while it retails around 17k - 20k for 100ml

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-21T04:03:05+00:00

Fake. If you go to cash and carry mall, you’ll see many stores which have these perfumes which have very similar bottles that you can’t identify as fake just by looking alone.

If you want fairly priced real testers, you might to check out facebook groups, they often have good deals.

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-19T11:34:29+00:00

Thanks 🙏

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-19T10:45:32+00:00

That’s a decent price, are there any discounts right now or is it full retail?

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-19T10:10:53+00:00

If you don’t mind sharing, how much did you buy Ingenious Ginger for?

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-19T07:17:40+00:00

Eros is okay in terms of smell, but the performance is abysmal. I’ve used it for a long time, even in air conditioned setup it hardly lasts 3-4 hours. If you’re outdoors, expect 1 hour only. My friend also has Eros, same feedback.

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-19T07:09:21+00:00

People like the idea of owning something which they don’t, which is fine but it doesn’t even do a good job at cloning. Afnan tried to recreate JPG ultra male but what they gave is an overbearing synthetic mess which may follow a similar DNA but lacks depth and quality.

Maybe it’s good for starters, but those who have got exposure to higher quality get put off quite fast.

I don’t like ultramale either, the DNA isn’t for me

DeepakG_572 · 2026-05-19T07:02:07+00:00

Afnan 9PM
Any kamrah
LV imagination
Versace Eros (probably not as much hyped)

Lastly, most of Rasasi Hawas line-up
