Villages near EK

Hi all, we're planning to purchase a lot or house and lot in one of the villages near EK. So far we've visited Villa Esmeralda and Royale (wc is inside Emeralda), Segovia, Toledo, and San Lorenzo. Just want to get your opinion and feedback for these villages in terms of safety, HOA, flooding issues (if any), and traffic since I'm working onsite in Ortigas.

If this helps, my fiance and I generally preferred the vibes of Royale (sobrang higpit ng security wc is a plus), then Segovia and Esmeralda.

The reason also why we're choosing them over Nuvali area is the price. They're a lot cheaper and mas may community na compared to the newly opened villages like Solen.

I've been searching this sub na but mostly within the Caceres community lang. Thanks for your help.

Jo Malone's Carrot Blossom - Love at first sniff

I know I should not make any impulsive decision after the first spray but my mind was so set on getting the carrot blossom when i smelled on the strip and on my skin.

Despite knowing Jo Malone's reputation on performance, eto yung mga times na ang inisip ko na lang na I just love this scent, like everytime aamuyin ko siya sa sarili ko, alam kong masaya ako.

After I purchased this, para akong ewan na inaamoy palagi yung wrist ko sa mall kasi ang bango bango niya talaga.

I am not the best person to explain notes etc, but I suggest try it in their store na lang, basta for me it smells like sweet carrots na medyo floral/powdery sa drydown.

My first ever "luxury" purchase, and I guess this will not be the last

Got this from GB5, initially I was looking lang for a Aqua Universalis forte because I loved how it smelled when I tried it in Rustans but unfortunately EDT version lang talaga ang meron.

Actually 724 talaga ina-eye ko at first because sya yung faves ko sa mga decants na na-try ko along with Narciso Rodriguez Pure Musc.

Then the SA in GB5 had me tried the AU cologne forte and I was disappointed na iba ang formulation nya sa EDT version, so he ended up offering me other perfumes on their lines and the Amyris Femme was a major stand out.

Fiance also loved the gentle fluidity silver (not because it was a Joshua Garcia scent as what the SA told us lol ang random lang ng pagshare samin) so mukhang mapapabili din siya sa susunod.

I know this will not be the last kasi ang dami na ng nasa listahan ko, and if may mareco kayo, feel free to drop here. So far I've been loving NR Pure Musc, Diptyque Lilyphea, and Guerlain Flora Salvaggia (all based on decants and test sprays lang muna).
