In due time these promises will be revisited and properly put in perspective. Nigerians will decide again if performance turns out woeful.

All that sciency stuff about perfumes just gets me lost.. so what i tend to do most times is go for the Eau De Parfums, buy from Duty-Free Shops anytime I travel or stick with the bigname shops like Montaigne and Essenza or Perfumery

Fair enough sir. These are very reliable places to buy from. But if you come around Lagos anytime, let me deliver your choices and only hope my prices beat those big stores.

Quality is not an issue.

you don't know the road to his house?

My question bothered round his church, not his house.

I just want to know one thing: Does Osinbajo still pastor his church? Or has he graduated? Anyone?

I think there's something fishy with this story. Its somewhat too smooth. Or is it just me?

That urge to project oneself as innocent is a subtle sign of something lurking.

omenka:
This is farking hilarious. They even get time reply the guy.

Soon we might start seeing things like @JumiaNigeria, please do you have nkwobi??

Na so na
Aint a thing wrong with that sir

Meanwhile, you can ask @in_sure1, please do you have Lalique?

voltron:
@OP this is very useful. however tell-tale signs that you have bought a fake perfume are usually 2 things for me.

1: The Quality of the Cellophane Wrapping - Fake perfumes have these crackling cellophane that has creases and folds when squeezed. The cellophane on the Real McCoys are of a softer quality and they retain their shape to a degree when squeezed.

2: Poor French or English text with foolish grammatical errors in composition and speling. No Perfume house will make such a silly mistake

This has helped me massively - also check FragranceNet DOT COM for images and descriptions of perfumes.

Better yet, order your perfumes direct from Amazon or Essenza, Montainge Place. reputable shops

Nice tips. But truth is that adulterated fragrances can come with same quality of cellophane wrapping.

In Nigeria, people erroneously term any fragrance that doesn't smell loud as they desire as fake perfume. Some fragrances were not created to be very pungent. This doesn't make them fake.

Having said that, perfumes are made with ingredients according to different notes. Top, middle and base notes. With original products, each ingredient is added to the mixture according to a specific measurement.
Fake perfumes, either use substandard of these ingredients or reduce the quantity of the ingredient of each note thereby reducing its potency.

Again, some perfumes come in exact packaging of the original but smell totally different. Top notes, middle notes and base notes are way off the ones created by the brand owners.
There are perfumes called 'Designer Impostors' that come as the RealMcCoy. Only a few can spot them.

Goodluck with purchases.

I wish I had seen this thread like two years ago or so.

I bought a Tom Ford perfume at the Main Oshodi market for 15k and wore it to my fiancee's family house since she'd been disturbing me to come around a long time back. Immediately their family dog saw me coming, he ran towards me sniffing at my clothes likes its life depended on it or something.

Ten minutes later the poor dog was found convulsing crazily by the gate. He eventually died an hour later despite desperate but fruitless attempt at reviving the nigga by my soon-to-be father in law. .

Needless to say, it is two years now and I am yet to receive another invitation into their house again.

There was a case of harassment by a colonel in d nigerian army. The judgment was in favor of the aggrieved and the army paid. Why won't the police pay? They shld knw better than being above the law. They can only appeal

hardbody: It is both sad and unfortunate how people parade their ignorance on something they know nothing about. Insurance as a sub sector has not penetrated deeply in Nigeria because of these form of reckless submissions by people who should know. When the stock market was booming, insurance as a sub sector made so many people rich with their penny stocks, today, the market has gone south across board and it has affected all the companies. As for long term fundamentals, google the likes of Mansard, cornerstone, and perhaps custodian. You will realize what has been going on.

For those of you that say God is your insurance, I pity your recklessness. I repeat, my cousin had an accident with one of my cars coming back in December from the East, the cost of total repairs, in the neighborhood of about 450k was borne by the insurance company. I have household, fire and burglary, etc. I have rest of mind because whether fire, flood, robbery or whatever that happens to any of my assets, my insurance company will pay.

Finally, rather than claim that the companies are just sitting down and waiting for government patronage, please learn a little more about industries and sectors outside yours, that is what makes a man brilliant and smart. By the way, I use Cornerstone Insurance and they have never failed me.

I lend my voice to these words here.

On point ! You are very very on point

Op, before critical analysis begin you first want to know that:
Insurance companies generate funds frm banks and all other financial institutions, Federal Government's and indeed all governments' properties, multi-nationals, private companies spanning all sectors, repeat ALL sectors of the nigerian economy, individuals (sadly only a small percentage) use insurance. Like I already mentioned, even the banks go to insurance companies to insure themselves and even insure the money they save for you. Insurance is like a (or should be the) backbone of all businesses... against risks!

Every person & every property (personal/official) should be insured. I'm just giving you the scope of the ideal relevance of insurance and where the generate funds.

insurance sector is only as healthy as the health of the totality of the entire economy/nation.

Having said that I want to clear something here:
I 'strongly' disbelieve that insurance firms use abt 80% of the premium collected for management costs. Rather it should be that that article meant to say 80% of the profits earned on the premium.
When this premiums are paid, the companies in turn, use the monies as capital to do businesses (businesses which vary from one company to another). At the end they make profit from this deals they do. Now, from the proceeds, they pay the client interest on his money(a prior mutual agreement on the rate), pay the marketers their stipends and commissions, pay their electricity bills, water bills, salaries, rents, fuel generators and cars, repairs and general maintenance etc.
After all these expense the company might have a substantial/little amount to declare as profits of which the shareholder may/may not be happy with.

It is false and misleading to say that insurance companies spend 80% of premium on management expenses. For some of us here who don't know what 'premium' is: its the total money a client (the insured) pays as cover to the insurance coy per annum. So if a client is paying 10,000 naira monthly it'll amount to 120,000naira per annumm. This 120,000 is the premium. so a coy doing & in business just leaves the money laying down there and keeps spending out of it up to 80? na political party?
