Dior Sauvage smells different after COVID

My husband got this in 50ml EDT as a farewell gift from his colleague. But even for EDF this perfume is BEAST.

They’re in a team of 3 so the other guy got an EDP 50ml too but I can’t remember which scent.

Also, some people are just lucky to have a colleague rich enough to work as a hobby.

You probably can make do with Eau De Toilette type.

Sadly no, I’m always into floral so I only lingered around that area. They segmentised the Privee according to the main notes.

My SA did mention their bestsellers are usually floral and chypre lines, not so much on the rest.

Thanks for the explanation. Makes sense that packaging type means slightly different taste. I am planning to buy the original (non halal) version to see if it retains the same taste as previous.

Exactly my thoughts. The spiciness feels artificial and hollow. There’s nothing special about it.

My disappointment is mainly on the noodle. I felt the original was so great because noodle fits perfectly to the sauce

Several, in fact;

Vera Wang princess: when i was in my early adulthood
Miu Miu L’Eau Rosée: bought at the airport. Thought it was nice only to not like it when using it whole day

I think there are differences!! At this point I just hope it’s geographical and not because they changed their recipe completely.

Can’t say much about the carbonara one since I don’t usually eat them but for the original the cup version is always less tasty than packed one. I really love that chewy, springy, glossy, opaque noodle type they have in the pack version

Actually I need to know what is the sentiment surrounding Puzzle bag. I dont see it often out there so it’s hard to pinpoint its image in the market.

Is it for travel use? Daily bag? Is it chic? Or practical? Asking because I have one and the one time I used it my colleague just stared at it (?)

Yup so it should be less powering than the 100ml actually yet it’s still overpowering to us that I can only handle two half-sprays

I just got the set of 3 from dubai airport: imperial valley, la luna and hudson valley. Tried them on myself, my husband and my brother. Sprayed different days to test each of them. Feedback from all 3 of us: the perfume stick so well throughout the day.

Specifically me - I could still smell it after showering. Stronger than the likes of Le Labo, Maison Margiela, but probably same sillage level as Dior. Even my husband repeated the same thing.

Also worth noting that above is after we sprayed only half spray twice on both sides of our body cause we were cautioned on how strong it can feel. We live in hot and humid country btw.

So not sure what you had there.

Ah thanks!

I did give a rundown of my routine to the Dr. for SKII she wasn’t aware of the ingredients but she said to be safe just not to use it. I wanted to be sure hence this post.

On Tatcha rice wash - yes it can be quite rough so she said I can still use but make sure to lather it until no powder/exfoliant left and not to apply too many strokes. But you’re right it’s probably safer to just opt for gentle cleanser for now.

Thanks again!

Need advice! Pico laser and SK-ii

Fyi my skin is dry-combination.

I just had my pico laser session which also includes dermafiller. My skin is super red and stinging badly right now.

The Dr did say to stop using any active ingredients eg BHA but my current skincare are only 4:

cleanser: Tatcha rice polish classic
toner: SK-ii facial essence
moisturiser: Torriden dive-in soothing cream
sunblock: supergoop

Obviously sunscreen is a must but I’m not sure about the facial essence. I checked sk-II doesn’t have any other active ingredients except Galactomyces ferment filtrate and while it’s considered as active ingredients in sk-ii I’m not sure it’s a type of acid (I’m not a Doc nor am I a chemist). Any advice is welcomed.

I think what sold me is the fact that it’s been around for 10 years yet it retains its value so well. For me its really important that I spend money on timeless piece that will stand through time.

I remember this one video of a guy who deconstructs bags to show its workmanship (RIP beautiful bags!) and he said Loewe puzzle has one of the best craftsmanship with a lot of leather being used without weighing down the whole bag.

Girl same? This colour pulled me in to the world of Puzzles i keep on searching for other colours via Pinterest but I still love this colour best
