BC Fragrance

Hi everyone!  A few weeks back, I was reading Preview Magazine when I chanced upon a very small feature on an online shop called BC fragrance.  I say very small since it occupied probably 10% of a full page in the magazine.  BC Fragrance started as an online shop in Multiply and has since branched into their very own online store (www.bcfragrance.com).  I was intrigued since the magazine feature said that they personally customize fragrances for their clients.  I went to their online site and was a little disappointed to find out that they really don't customize fragrances.  Either you buy from their pre-mixed fragrances inspired by perfumes/colognes from different well-known brands or you can buy materials for you to make you own fragrance.  You can personalize your own bottle, though.  But that's about it.  Anyways, I can't pass up the opportunity to try their "inspired" fragrances at P20/each for a 1.5-ml spray bottle.  So, I bought 15 kinds of perfumes/colognes.


When they say "inspired", they really mean inspired.  The fragrances do not really smell exactly like the originals but it sort-of/kinda smelled like the originals.  All in all, there were a few good ones and a few bad ones.  Majority of the fragrances were okay.  The ones that I liked were the following: RL Polo Sport, Creed Silver Mountain Water, Bulgari Aqua, D&G Light Blue, Clinique Happy, Creed Love in White, Bulgari Omnia Amethyst, and Bulgari Omnia Crystalline.  So, that's 8 out of the 15 that I bought.  Not bad.  The 1.5-ml spray bottle lasted me for 2-3 days (application twice a day).  The scent lasted for around 4-6 hours.  Maybe I'll buy from the site once I finish my current perfumes. A 60-ml bottle will set you back around P500/bottle.  It is a really inexpensive way to smell good.

Thanks for dropping by!  I'll talk to you next time!
