How Often Do You Add A New Bottle To Your Perfume Collection? by Yongi99(m): 8:43am On Jan 20, 2015
My collection is at it's infancy, it is eleven
months old now since February 2014. My
first buy was Dior Homme Intense, and then
I got L'eau d’Issey pour homme as a
birthday gift by July. Still in July I bought
Versace Blue Jeans. Four months later I
added Grey Flannel. I started 2015 with
Joop! Homme, then got Nautica Voyage N-83
(half full) from a friend.
Obviously I don’t have a regular collection
schedule, I have just being buying at
random and when the money is there. But
hopefully I want to buy regularly this year
like one bottle a month or two bottles in
three months.
Those of you who are old in the business,
could you tell us how often you buy your
fragrances.

I'm not a perfume junkie neither am I a connoisseur, I buy only on whim.

That aside, I still have bottles dating back to 2010. The more I have the slower it takes to finish old fragrances. I prefer fine-tuning my smell to attract a particular individual and randomize till I get a desired fragrance. I also enjoy seeing the faces I get from friends who ask "why many different scents?". They'd never understand.

How often do I add to the collection? Anytime I see a bottle I've either heard about, seen in an advert or read the review previously. If I have a little change I search specifically for a top-ranker.

I want to buy a bottle of perfume for my man come val with price range btw (15k - 20k). I bought him black last val, it was ok but I want something unique.

I don't like harsh perfumes as I don't use myself and I get easily irritated with most perf second and third notes. Pls thou shall not confuse me, just drop three names of au perfum, not toilette or cologne for man. Thank you

Basically most men fragrances are in eau de toilette. Eau de parfum are few and are often niche fragrances, which are most expensive.

But these ones are in EDT concentration:
1. Yves Saint Laurent La Nuit d L'Homme
2. Chanel Bleu de Chanel
3. Van Cleef & Arpels Midnight in Paris

Pardon me:
4. Versace Eros
5. Thierry Mugler Pure Malt

I would advice you to test the scents before buying, its gonna help you choose.

Nope, all 5 bottles are EDT concentration. But they all perform well. You wanted 3 perfumes but I gave you extra 2.

Please do come back and comment if you ever test or buy any one.

I do not wear any at the moment..


actually looking for a perfume I.D.
something not toxic, no alcohol, smells heavenly, as mild as a baby's bum and as sweet as a flower's nectar


please recommend some for me...
thanks...
Re: How Often Do You Add A New Bottle To Your Perfume Collection? by Tashaamania(f): 4:27am On Jan 24, 2015
Err.. Not that often, I can use a perf for a year..
I hardly use them whenever I go out, I'm very okay with the deodorant spray which has a very nice scent and then my cologne combined together always give this great longlasting scent.
Using a perf would be whenever I feel like it..

these 2 are cool....both are similar to Dior homme intense in some ways.
Re: How Often Do You Add A New Bottle To Your Perfume Collection? by jukeblam(m): 3:21pm On Mar 10, 2015
Yeah, but I like that they are both spicier and 'warmer' than the DHI- I'm starting to get unfazed by the DHI smell. Almost bland to me, now.

By the way, I replied your pm; you seen that? My email address is my username @ yahoo dot com.

Joop! Homme- the 'killer' fragrance. Kills mosquitoes- DEAD! grin
LIDGE too, is like a spicy Kokorico.

Must have suffered the reformulation syndrome; albeit, in this case, probably a good thing.
