Amouage Dia would be welcomed even in Southeast Asia.
So, I'm getting ready to break
down and buy some Amouage this week (probably tonight if I can get out of work early enough to make it to Parfums
Raffy before they close).
My last question is do I get Dia or Gold? I like the smell of Dia better, but if
women like Gold better I should probably get that. Gold is too soapy and powdery for my taste, but I'm not buying
it for me but for women (and I'm not expecting any life changing experience).
You know, honestly, I might like
the woman's gold the best on me. So I'd just try them all and pick the one you like on yourself, but also
solicit feedback from others.

I think you'll like Dia better,
that's my next purchase.

People generally favor DIA. Gold may
have more pheromone analogs in it. Tough choice.
I may buy the Gold after I get my
samples in the mail. Dia will blow you away. It's definitly the most sophisticated and enchanting fragrance that's
ever graced my nostrils. I'm certain the ladies are going to love it. I bought this exclusively for parties and for
social events where I'm going to be around a lot of girls. But I'm going to test it out at work tommorow. Thanks
for introducing this to us, Doc.
Amouage recently sent out a press
release which mentioned how it has become a hot topic on internet forums. All do to Doc. The man got his gold
nabbed from his car and doesn't even have it anymore, but he certainly started a revolution.
Dia has become my daily staple
and I am constantly getting comments about the fragrance. If you can spring for the expense - it's definitely
worth it.
Krypto.... How many sprays do you use
and where do you apply?
2-3 sprays. One on the
wrists rubbed together; one on the chest and/or the neck. It tends to linger a long time - although I have freshened
it (one short spray) after a long day of work.
BTW - for those looking to buy, the salesperson remarked that the
GOLD lasts longer. It has a much fuller/heavier scent.
Interesting. I can still smell the Dia when I get into the shower the next day, so Dia (at myOriginally Posted by kryptogram
usual 4-6 sprays) lasts at least 24 hours on me. And it seems to spread itself around. I have been told a number
of times that my baby niece smells like me whenever I wear the Dia.
I went to Parfums Raffy and
sprayed Dia on one wrist and Gold on the other. Hours later the Gold didn't loose any of it's strength but the Dia
was somewhat diminished.
I was actually trying to get the Gold off (because I like Dia better) with a paper
towel and water and it still didn't seem to lessen.
Gold has heavier notes, more basenotes.
That is the reason why it appeals to less people I guess. Dia is lighter. I think young women - and men - much
favor the dia.
There's never much talk about the silver or the ciel or the others. I'd like to hear more
about those.
I smelled Ciel, and while it was
good, it was not as memorable or as unique as Gold or Dia.
My samples we'll beOriginally Posted by bjf

My wife said somethingOriginally Posted by Friendly1
similar the first time I wore it - but it has definitely grown on her.
I didn't mean to imply I
thought the Dia would last as long as or longer than the Gold. I just meant to point out that Dia lasts a very long
time. I can imagine Gold would be a very strong scent on the basis of the comparison.
Well, a youngOriginally Posted by bjf
sales girl at Etoile in Houston kept trying to get me to buy the Ciel this year, but I stayed with Dia because I do
like it better and because Ciel reminded me of Creed, which I already have.
This sure has been an
interesting read ...I see many people from the forum here have sent for and received samples. Did any of you ever
pay for your samples or did you all get them for free? even no shipping costs?
On the
www.amouage.com site I see the samples cost from 18 to 25 Euro.. I will not be buying the fragrance this
year, because with such a high price I would have to add 24% norwegain taxes to it.. which would make it even more
expensive If I've understood it correct the Australian customs aren't as bad as in Norway, so I will
consider buying it when I get down under, but until then it would be great to get a sample and see if it really is
to my liking.. I really don't have much experience with perfumes and my nose isn't really good, but I do love the
smell of Chikara
Anyways, did everyone get the samples for free and is there some way to still
get them for free, or is my best shot to order the samples at 18 Euro? (if so I will wait till I get to Australia
and don't have to pay extra taxes on it..)

the same store, I was there last week and the shelves looked more bare than usual.
In a few weeks the entire
city is going to smell like a flower shop .

because of the demand.
At least that's what I'm lead to believe.

Guess I'll wait
till I travel then, and if possible I'll get to the shop in london and smell it (i've got 9 hours waiting on
the airport or something).
Last night I went to buy Dia and
Parfums Raffy is out of it until Monday. The owner was nice enough to give me a sample sprayer of Gold.
I've
got to say, I just don't like it. I can't believe that I like Dia so much and dislike Gold.
I've had a few
women smell at work today and so far they don't seem to o impressed.
Often when you love a smell it
will also smell good on you to others -- and the converse also holds (No, I'm not talking about the smell of shoes.
).
I really wanted to like the Dia, but didn't as much. Yet if anything, Dia is a greater achievement in
perfuming because of the special rose in it. The Gold is just more musky, and would technically have more animal
pheromonal content. The women's Gold might smell best on me.

I just saw this thread and now I'm
tempted to buy a bottle of this stuff. Which one is the best to get? Gold or Dia?
What is this stuff
comparable to?
Since you guys seem to all have
the mens and womens samples, I wanted to ask you, esp. you DST, which of the women's fragrances do you prefer on
women?
I'm having a hard time deciding between Gold and Dia. I like the gold, but it's a little powdery.
Some people have said they liked it a LOT, some not overly impressed, and so forth. I smelled the dia, and I liked
it, but I haven't worn it out yet.
Please give me your opinions on this, I definitely want to buy one.
Thanks guys,
~Silver
