The problem

Your RM300 EDP is gone by lunch.

Most of what you paid for is alcohol. That's why the first spray is loud and the rest of the day is quiet.

In the bottle1 / 3

You only ever smell the opening

Alcohol lifts the top notes off your skin fast. By the time the heart and base should come through, most of the scent has already gone with it.

In this heat2 / 3

Heat takes it even faster

The hotter it gets, the faster alcohol evaporates. Loud at 9am. By lunch, you're sniffing your wrist to check it's still there.

On your skin3 / 3

And it stings

You feel it the second it hits your neck, and more on freshly shaved skin. Every morning, the same sting.

Oil de Parfum

Questions before you buy

Will it last that long on me?

Up to seven hours is the top end, not a promise. Dry skin holds less, warm skin holds more. Most people spray once in the morning and don't think about it again.

Without alcohol, will people smell it?

Less than an alcohol spray, on purpose. Alcohol throws scent across a room for the first hour. Oil keeps it in a close circle around you all day, so the people you sit with notice it all day.

Will it feel oily?

You'll feel a light oil for the first few minutes, which is why one or two sprays is plenty. Spray where it won't rub straight onto a collar: wrists, neck, behind the ears.

Will it stain my clothes?

It can. That's the trade-off of an oil base, so spray it on skin only, never on fabric.

Alcohol stings my skin. Will this?

There's no alcohol in it, so there's nothing to sting. If fragrance in general bothers your skin, test a vial from a Discovery Set on your wrist first.

Does it hold up in this heat?

Better than alcohol does. Heat is what burns alcohol off. Oil sits on warm skin and keeps releasing the scent through the day.

It doesn't feel cold when I spray it. Is that normal?

That's the oil. The chill you're used to is alcohol evaporating, not the perfume. Oil doesn't evaporate, so it goes on warm. It feels odd for about a week if you've only ever worn sprays.

How much do I use, and where?

One or two sprays on your wrists, neck or behind the ears. It's concentrated, so more isn't better.

How long does a 50ml bottle last?

About 3 to 5 months at 2 or 3 sprays a day.

Is 50% fragrance oil real, or just a number?

It's the formula. Half of every bottle is fragrance oil, with no denatured alcohol and no perfumer's alcohol in the ingredient list.

What if I don't like the scent?

Swap it. Bring it unused and undamaged to our Damansara Uptown or Petaling Street store, or send it back, and pick another scent.

If you're torn between a few, start with a Discovery Set so you can wear them before you commit.

I've never bought fragrance before. Where do I start?

Start with eight vials: two Discovery Sets for RM170. Wear one a day, then buy the bottle you kept reaching for. If you already have a direction, take a 50ml bottle with four vials for RM219. See the sets

Still on you after lunch.

Alcohol-free, 50% fragrance oil, made by hand in Kuala Lumpur. Start with one bottle and four more to try.
