The World's Greatest Perfume

[happyguy]

*Sigh. I asked in January, but still havn\'t received Amouage samples. Does it usually take forever to get it in

WA, USA?

Round 1
Requested: January 12, 2004 I gave my address and everything.
Reply: \"I am delighted to

learn of your interest in our range of fragrances and will arrange for a complimentary set of fragrance samples to

be sent to you shortly.\"

Round 2
Asking about how long shipping would take: February 08, 2004
Reply: \"A

full set of samples were sent to you the next day, as it seems they have not reached you I will arrange for another

set to be despatched.\"

Round 3
Nothing yet still: February 20, 2004
Reply: 20 Feb 2004 \"Ok we will try

once more and this time send them by AIRSURE, please let me know in due course of their safe arrival\"

Now,

AIRSURE sounds pretty reliable. We\'ll see if I get it [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

I had to

make two request. I got my samples the second time, but the package had been opened at customs. I suspect my first

package was \"lost\" in customs.

DST, The Gold colonge smells alot like incense. Real stong.

[dcrew2000]

I

went through the same thing you might have to call Wendy direct in jolly old England.
I say screw the samples just

jump in and buy, you won\'t be disappointed.
Amouage is in a league by itself.

Chances are you will like Amouage but I can understand someone not just jumping in...$100+ a bottle, is a lot to

spend on a fragrance you\'ve never smelled. Late or not the samples are FREE.
I had no problems with recieving

my samples. It took a few weeks for the first pair (Gold and Dia) to arrive, then about a week later I got two more.

The second pair I didn\'t even request.

hour, moreso than other colognes even. Things \"smell like incense\" usually because they contain unfamiliar,

richer fragrances that people don\'t know how to categorize.

It\'s good with a unique product like

Amouage (my own scents are this way too)to first let go of your expectations that it will smell like other colognes

you know (most commercial colognes out there suck anyway, IMHO, due to the domination of synthetic ingredients)! Let

it grow on you before concluding anything. I had to try it 3x before I realized how much I liked it. Often the

finest things to enjoy are acquired tastes, especially in areas where big corporations have constructed our tastes

for us. For the uninitiated, wine coolers are easier to like than Dom Perrignon (sp?). Then again, I drink Bud and

Pabst. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

As a perfumer, I know I want to smell different that

anyone else, so I think a little bit of \"weird\" when you first smell something is often a good sign.

It is definately different. I am out of town this week so I can not play

with it until next Friday, but I will try it out. If I like it I will get some and use it for special occasions.

Last

night was Latin night at one of the local clubs.
I was torn between using Pheros or Amouage.
I decided to go with

Amouage Gold but instead of my usual \"panty dropper\" mix that I use on blind dates, I decided to go with 5 drops

of AE on (under shirt) 1 drop of PI (shoulder) 2 drops WAGG (under shirt).
Well to make a long story short I was

at the bar dancing (by myself) when this girls came by.
She asked me why I was dancing by myself so I told her I

was warming up. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
After a few dances we went out to the balcony

where things got very interesting.
We were talking when I noticed that she started to get real close, she then

started sniffing me. I went something like this \"you smell so good\" snif snif \"what are you wearing \" snif

snif snif \"I never smelled anything like it\" snif snif snif this went on for the remainder of the night.
We

started flirting that progressed to kissing, she seemed very intrigued yet somewhat confused by me at one point she

tried to recover but the attraction was too strong.
We ended up at her place later that night and bang bitty bang

bang bang bang.

Amouage came through once again the AE/PI and Wagg may have been a factor as well.

I never

ever got a response like I did yesterday, it was like she was in a trance.

I\'m going to try a little at work

next week in the name of science [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img].

Yep, it appears that the last

AIRSURE shipment just arrived today! They finally made it here in WA at the end of the world :P. They smell pretty

good, gonna try some out soon. Haha, wow, if anyone else is waiting remember to be patient. Mine took about 7 weeks

to get!!

And that works? What little section of the alternate

universe do you live in? \'Cause it\'s been my experience to watch guys \"dancing\" by themselves at the bar

that they will be begging the strays at closing time to go for a pancake at the IHOP or whatever. You must have

come across the killer pheromone/cologne combo of the new century. I, in fact, envy your ability to hook up via the

Billy Idol (Dancing with myself) technique. It is a rare gift indeed.

You

have to keep in mind that It was \"Latin Night\".
I was actually going over some steps that I took in Salsa

lessons a few years back.
What you have is a bunch of chicks looking for guys to dance with (salsa, meringue,

bachata).
If you ever tried dancing Salsa, you\'ll find that it\'s not the easiest thing to do especially with

chicks that grew up with it, if you can’t hold your own on the dance floor they will leave you flat.
Now lets

factor in the 4 to 1 girl/guy ratio so now you have a bunch of chick looking for dance partner of which maybe 70%

(guys) can actually dance the Latin rhythms.
Me dancing by myself had two goals.
One I really was practicing my

steps [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].
Two I was showing the female prospect that I wasn’t a

complete novice, chick will actually ask you to dance if they feel you can keep up (yes it does happen) and sure

enough there she was.
The most fascinating part was the fact that she was sniffing me like a airport security dog

on the balcony you had to see it to believe it.
A great night overall Amouage has done it again with possible help

from AE/ WAGG/PI.

dcrew-

You have to remember that Gooy is a bitter 30something..soon to be divorcee...so pay him no mind.

He\'ll bag on you no matter what, because it makes him feel better about himself. He\'s cold and bitter right

now...he\'ll either get over it or continue to post the same old sh!t. So show a bit of sympathy for him. Some

day he\'ll get his sh!t together or not. It\'s not your problem...but his.

[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

[pico]

AE + PI

+ WAGG is a great combo! Stick in a dab or two of NPA and that\'s the best IMHO.

Now

you\'ve gone and done it. You\'ve cut me to the quick. Actually, I\'ll bag on you just because, rather than

having it fill some psychological need. It\'s just me.

Speaking of getting ones act together, I\'ve been waiting for

By the way, what\'s up with the multiple posts this

morning? Ah, I see. It\'s Saturday, the junior high school is closed and you can\'t go cruising for dates.

The \"panty

dropper\" mix used on \"blind dates\" are is 5 sprays of Amouage Gold or Siver to chest, both wrists, neck and

back. 1 drop PI to left shoulder breast, area 2 drops of NPA applied to chest breast area and I believe 1 drops of

AE behind each ears.

I modified it for clubbing using 5 drops of AE on under shirt 2 drops WAGG on undershirt 1

drop Pi on shoulder.

Oh I forgot to mention I no longer use commercial deodorants, I have been using the \"Randy

Pants\" mix in the Woman\'s Forum.


Good luck let me know the results if any.

BTW, It sure does seem like PI

and Lacroy are a great combo, as most of you know. For a long time now the best hit stories have included it.

Hi,
I\'ve been reading this thread and have wanted to buy this product, just to clarify, the product that you

are recomending is amouage gold for men, and not amouage gold cologne correct?

Also, this may sound naive, but to

attract women you\'re using amouage gold for ladies or men? Any input would be great.
Thanks

I use both

Amouage Gold (Eau de Toilette) and the Silver (Colongne) for MEN. They both smell kinda silimar to me and get the

job done.

I am thinking of getting the Dia in a few months, some guys here in the fourm like it better that the

Gold EDT.

I

went into the store to buy the Amouage Gold last year and they were out, but they had the Dia, so I bought that.

Have never looked back since.

Got this email today from Wendy. I

think Gold and Dia are on sale:

I'll say it again "NOTHING" can beat

this stuff.
I used it two weeks ago on a blind date and got some action the same day.
Thats 3 for 4 if anyone

is keeping score, added 2 drops of SOE she was sniffing me like a police dog.
I used it last week with and old

friend and she started to joke asking me if I was available for booty calls.
I have a date with a Vietnamese girl

on Saturday and you can bet your life that I will be wearing Amouage in my panty dropper mix.

[camusflage]

Got this email today

from Wendy. I think Gold and Dia are on sale:

You are correct. Gold and Dia are on sale. 90 Eu for the

ladies purse sizes and 282 Eu for the ladies 50ml bottles. Sadly, I don't see anything for us guys.

On a

related note, I did manage to score a 10 ml decant for Silver Cristal for some $10 a few months back. The stuff is

like heaven in a bottle, to my nose. I didn't care for Gold, but then, I'm a 30 year old. I have class and

sophistication coming out the butt when I need it, but even I can't pull that one off at my age.

[DCW]

Which one are you

using?

The box said Silver Men, but I have a feeling it was Gold EDT because it smells very similiar

to the Gold that I already have. It was a new tester that I bought at half price so there was no lable

markings.
