"Mens Smelly's"

Post by tolair »

Hello all

I'm not a big girls blouse but I do occationally enjoy the "Haawm" comments from the ladies. But I am quickly running out of supplies.

So, can any of you knowlegable folk tell me where to purchase after-shave, eau de toilette ..ect of the GENUINE variety in HH?

Nothing too exotic: CK, Aramis, Armani.

I know there is a little booth right in front of Tescos in M.V. Some of the packaging looks quite convincing but B200 for a B2000 product tells it's own story. :shock:

Someone suggested Makro in Pranburi ( They weren't sure they carried perfumes)

I have never been there and it's a long way to go on my scooter. Secondly, don't ineed a store card or have to buy 10 bottles (retail) of the stuff?

Thanks for any help.

I happen to live with an expert on the subject who just won't buy in Hua Hin or locally. Best choice is to go right to the "perfume row" at the Siam Paragon in Bkk and of course pay top price per bottle. (Alternative, have friends and family bring the stuff in from abroad.)

Thanks for the quick response Chas.

Yeah, I had resigned myself to a trip to Robinsons or a mall in Bkk.

I'm surprised Boots doesn't carry perfume, as it is one of thier major lines in England isn't it?

Suppose I could always nick some from the airport :twisted:

Yes. the title should have read "Men's Smellies"
I am sorry but I have a cold. :wink: However

I go commando in Thailand:

1} It's cooler
2} Quicker
3} Cuts down my laundry bills
4) And I don't like strangers seeing all my embarrasing 'skiddies'

:oops:

Ah, so that's your secret to getting all those 'haawm' compliments. I've always used aftershave myself, so that's why I've missed out :D

In all seriousness should be going uptown in next week or so, don't mind picking up some if you know what you want ?

Has anyone tried the Boots next to Starbucks, remember they had proper ladies brands in there a couple of years back ??

I go commando too here cause it's to hot to wear that cotton down there that just gets wet and causes a rash... and I wear eau de sweat here too (not by choice) as a perfume or parfum as the French say... :oops:

It's been so long since I "chatted up" anyone that I don't have any chat up lines...no need for them anymore. :D

"No you can't have a Sambuca, you can have a Bacardi Breezer instead though" ....... seems to do the trick these days :D
Or so my unmarried mates tell me.

That is very kind of you Joe (especially as I am a complete stranger) but I think I have enough for a month or so.

I can only afford to use the good stuff at weekends anyway :cry:

Thanks again though.

Yeah reminds me of the old joke

Nelson: "Prepare the cannons my good man. But firstly prepare my brown breeches."

Actually BB most of my shorts are black :oops:
