    The new perfumes thread maybe?

    I wouldnt try any other website in India other than WS Retail at those prices. Too many fakes in the market :( Either that, or I buy from abroad and ask my friends to bring it with them.

    Just in- amouage reflection man 10 ml decant. Good that I got a decant before buying a bottle as it's not something I would want to wear, tried a bit yesterday, and didnt like it. Sweet, fresh, flowery powder is how it smells to me. Also, finally, tom ford noir de noir :D

    Its not that expensive actually, 250 ml split into 50*5 turns out to be approx 6k for 50 ml (including shipping and decanting supplies used in the process, if bought at london duty free price). The retail price here for 50 ml official bottle is 13k. Ive tried and tested that, so I was kind of...

    Tried m.i today. Not a fan! I dislike this one from creed. Havent tried enough to judge longevity yet. Smw and git are so much better than m.i. For me, from the house of Creed, 1. Aventus (full bottle worthy) 2. Green irish tweed (fbw) 3. Royal oud (fbw) 4. Virgin island water (decant worthy) 5...

    Yes, do what chaos said. One of my friends ordered something from strawberry net and was made to wait after reaching india. He then had to pay customs (to the postman who delivered). He got a refund from strawberrynet for the same. Also, If anyone is interested in joining a split of Tom Ford...

    The Fitness Thread !

    Yeah, I hit squats heavy once a week. Lets see, hopefully calves will grow more soon with time. I was pretty disappointed initially when i noticed that i wasn't increasing in weight (after few months of steady increase). But then I realised I was gaining muscle mass at the same time. Thankfully...

    How many times a week should one train calves? I do calf raises twice a week at the moment. Kind of hard to get those muscles going :( Also, how do i measure body fat? I was 75 kg last may when I started (quite skinny), reached 90 kgs in december last year (no dirty bulking) and since december...

    My friend wears tl layered with aventus, tl layered with ndn and tl layered with tv. Tl smoothened with a softer edge sounds good. Will try that once. Gret vetiver was soapy for me, didnt like it. I dont remember why i didnt like neroli portofino too, i only remember not liking it haha. Oud wood...

    If you are in delhi, you should pay a visit to the tom ford boutique at dlf emporio mall and check out the entire private blend range :) I went there once and i remember falling in love with noir de noir, oud wood and tuscan leather. Didnt like tv that much. But now that i'm planning to get two...

    Yes, it is coconut based, but it has an equal partner in lime (as per fragrantica). I wanted more lime than coconut. Some batches are coconut heavy, some are lime heavy. Wore it again, and it actually performs very well, almost similar performance as that of Aventus. Was a gift from a friend...

    Got the chance to sniff two more creeds- Royal oud and virgin island water. Cannot say much atm, but royal oud is a winner! Such an amazing rich scent with just a hint of oud ( fresh woody genre, and thankfully no medicinal oud). Virgin island water is a disappointment. Had huge expectations...

    I havent had the chance to sniff them, but i really wish to try portrait of a lady and vetiver extraordinaire. Musc ravageur has a perfect clone, or say, even better than MR itself( due to lack of cumin) in meharees(google it, the house is some l'erbolario or something, they have an ambre...
