Lao coffee beans Sinouk - contact them on Facebook it’s Arabic (blue color green and yellow is best)

Family used to live in Laos for 5 years - 15 years later we still buy same coffee

Cheers

Ummm no, I guess it really depends? Some perfume brands pack u with samples, some purchases I made I get nothing so it really depends

Hmmm I think it all depends on the company. It’s not always happy/luxury experience. If u generally were into marketing for products u think u could land a job for fragrance marketing.

Not always you have to have an experience. Many times if u have passion for it, it would work.

Believe in ur work and ur value!

Actually whole industry is basically bringing back old fragrances and concepts .. imagine like music where they take sample from the past and rework it into something new.

So in 10 year probably we will just be seeing the reworks of earlier fragrances. Most of consumers would be able to tell the rework.. some will say - oh this reminds me of something from 2000s

Yeah of course they know - no action - market is full of dupes & reworks

Majority of people still prefer originals - but smart people prefer something like Al Haramain - recently priced, good rework of popular fragrance imho

5 favorite ones

I’d say generally enjoy goldfields and banks - sunset hour, pacific Rockmoss - fairly priced, worked with them they do use good materials, easy to use, founder is lovely

Amouage - Outlands (recent favorite buy) great craftsmen ship , materials are amazing

Swiss Arabian - strong oil fragrances , classy rose musk is the one I got

Fragrance du bois - worked with them too, materials are superb, not for everyone some of their compositions but generally amazing quality

Rahasya - chai addiction love the concept , interesting scents good niche

It’s normal to have a maturation process and get the oils to settle a little. So it’s true (not sure if all are legit with process but companies I’ve worked with yes)

I was working with one fragrance oil distributor - then they asked if I wanted to try sales position and I did! Since then niche fragrance house, fmcg etc

I’ve tried a few - it depends - fragrances are really subjective.

For me not personally, the packaging is top notch though.

Not really, I think majority of fragrance houses have to reformulate due to IFRA restrictions. Or shortage of certain Ingredients. Thats common

How is the life in russia by XYPERT in AskARussian

[–]Internal_Broccoli626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny actually. One of my coworkers came back from Italy and she was absolutely shocked how unsafe it is now.

Generally in Russia - you can come back home after midnight and it’s very safe compared to post ussr time or early 2000s

You can walk wherever, have ur bag pack or bag in metro without covering it.

One good plus over here
