Bois Imperial & Ingenious Ginger

Bois Imperial & Ingenious Ginger

Thy hype around these two is more than enough for me to dive in head first HAHA (blind buy malala)

The bois imperial is promising, at first sobrang soapy niya pero nung nag dry down na. JUSKO, amoy pogi!! Unisex siya yes, but this is something I wanna smell on my significant other 🥹

I haven’t opened the ingenious ginger yet pero I’m excited 😬😬😬 to those who have this, what should I expect? Hahaha

Siage by Strokes: Quiet Stay

Top Notes: Bergamot, Lemon, Black Currant, Orange
Heart Notes: White Floral, Orchid
Base Notes: Amber, Musk, Velvet Musk, Sandalwood

This is the recommended scent out of all the 4 scents in the current collection by a random male content creator in Tiktok na napanood ko. I quickly trusted him. 😂 So I blind bought this.

Owning 40+ perfumes leaning to freshies and citrusy profiles and some gourmand, mejo okay to for a clean type fragrance. Gusto ko mag explore ng scents hindi yung puro very masculine lang. Mas gusto kasi ng officemates ko yung clean scent lang na naamoy nila sakin.

Di ko alam pero this smells very aquatic and a bit salty rather than musky on the dry down. May hint naman ng pagkamusky pero mas aquatic siya based sa naaamoy ko. Pero wala siyang aquatic notes kahit sea water. or weird lang pang amoy ko? Pa-validate naman ako please. Hahaha. Or educate me kasi baka all this time mali knowledge ko sa musky notes.

This is comparable to Salty Ocean Bouquet ng Zara sa dry down ng very slight pero very different sa opening. Pero toned down.

Full wear ko to bukas and update ako ng final verdict.

Initial Verdict: 7.5/10 clean fragrance. Di sya offensive and as the name suggests, very subtle lang ang dating mo dito.

Any fresh, clean, and a bit citrusy/floral recos from other brands I can get in Japan? I was able to get 10ml of Shiro EDP Savon, White Tea, and Earl Grey! Replica is for the husband❤️

first perfume ko na may coconut note 🌴🥥🫧

As the title says, as a guy medyo hesistant ako to explore notes on perfume kasi baka it’ll smell too feminine on me. But this one is surprisingly not feminine despite the coconut water note.

Parang coconut, musky scent sya na mas prevalent ang musky/ fresh notes. Pero on me, the drydown is sweet and very reminiscent of the coconuts. Haha asked my fam everytime i spray if too feminine ba sya or obvious ba na amoy coconuts on their nose pero sabi nila hindi naman daw, medyo amoy fresh na woody daw. Haha idk just amazed how scent is perceived differently per person.

This scent reminds me of the beach. Like parang morning/noon sa beach na tirik ang araw. And nagpapa araw ka, either sunbathing or just swimming sa dagat. Haha

SOTN: Maison Francis Kurkdjian Gentle Fluidity Silver

Wearing this GFS tonight. This thing is really a gentle beast. Bright, uplifting opening, clean musks, smooth woody drydown, everything feels ridiculously polished without trying too hard.

Honestly, this is one of the few fresh fragrances (that I know of) na kaya maging playful and professional at the same time. Pwede sa dinner date, night drive, hospital duty, or kahit naka-black tee ka lang buying coffee at 2 AM. Performance on my skin is solid too, especially outdoors at night.

Swerte talaga pag yung SA at the shop is generous when you make a purchase.

Habol talaga natin yung mga generous sales associates sa mga shops. Swertihan na lang kung mapagbigyan ka, lalo na if you make requests or ask for samples.

Bumili kasi kami sa Dyptique, a bottle of hair mist lang kasi hindi pa makapag commit to a full-sized bottle.

Binigyan kami isang 2ml sample during purchase, which I think is just appropriate din. Kasi nga it's a small purchase lang naman.

Pero nagbaka sakali ako... and asked if we can have it in one of their bigger paper bags lol

I explained na super fan kasi kami ng Diptyque recently. If I had a larger paper bag, pede ko magamit regularly to carry stuff around.

Tsaka free advertising na rin yun for them diba, kasi visible yung logo nila habang bitbit ko yung bag.

Ay, pinagbigyan ako.

So eto. Anlaki. Hala! May ganito sila kalaking paper bag pala.

Is Verylle a good local brand?

Almost 90k sold pero wala akong makitang maayos na review sa Tiktok - anyone na nakagamit na nito? And worth it ba for the price??

Van Cleef & Arpels Neroli Amara EDP

Ang hirap hanapin! Out of curiosity, I opened a box to smell (haven’t sniffed this before) and shet, na-inlove ako.

It’s such a fresh scent. Imagine subtle citrus and clean fresh air together. Sobrang perfect summer scent! 🥹

A safe blind buy in my opinion if you are into freshies! More feminine-leaning but as a guy, I can see myself wearing this especially during day time. Damn sobrang bango talaga haha!

Shelfie

Rule to self: ‘pag hindi na kasya (in one single file), tama na muna. Or unload first. 😂

In retrospect, I wish I installed completely floating shelves. Kaya lang walang stock when I went out to buy. Sayang.

Lmk if you have any questions about sa meron ako. Hehe.

Ever noticed a scent category just doesn’t work for you on your skin?

I tried Poison by Dior a while back because I kept seeing people call it a classic gourmand. On paper I liked it, vanilla and sweetness seemed easy to wear. On my skin it turns heavy and a bit cloying after an hour. I still get why people enjoy it, but I don’t reach for it anymore. I tested it a few times in different weather and it just feels like too much for daily use. Anyone else had a scent they thought they'd like but didn't work on skin?
