Hugo Boss Just Different review

http://www.punmiris.com/images/secundar/o.14987.jpg
I wrote about the Hugo Boss Bottled Sport endorsed by F1 driver Jenson Button, but that is not the only perfume for men I own. Actually, I own only two, and the Hugo Boss Just Different is the other one (I seem to like my Hugo Boss, don't I?). The one I got is the Just Different Eu De Toilette, but it is also available in the forms of Aftershave Balm, Shower Gel, Deodorant Stick and Deodorant Spray.

The Hugo Boss Just Different is endorsed by actor and 30 Seconds To Mars singer Jared Leto. If you haven't watched the Inception-like commercial, you should definitely check it out.


Hugo Boss Just Different 2011 is apparently a new edition of the fragrance that was made popular in 1995.  According to the official website, it is "for the man who takes inspiration from everything around him. He has the ability to see the world around him differently". And the fragrance certainly seems to reflect that. The  fragrance is very different from most other masculine fragrances that I have tried. It has a sharp clean minty smell that gives way to notes of freesia. Here are the details of the scent:


Top Notes: Ice Cold Mint
Middle Notes: Basil and Freesia
Base Notes: Cashmeran


Despite the fact that Just Different is marketed as a men's fragrance, I do like it very much, and I reach out for it whenever I feel tired of floral or fruity feminine scents. The bonus of this fragrance is that it is not overpowering at all, even if you spray on a little too much, or smell it for too long. It is a minty fresh scent, and I think that even after finishing this bottle, I will probably continue to get another one. Plus. the fact that Jared Leto is the face of this brand certainly helps.

Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour 499 Dark Cherry review

TDLR Review:  I would not recommend this hair colour product at all, because the shade turned out nothing like the box. Also it is difficult to wash off.  NOTE: I have dark Asian hair, which might be the reason why it's not suitable for this product. So I'm back with another hair dye review! I've raved about the Liese hair dyes before ( Cassis Berry , Sweet Apricot , Antique Rose ), because those are super easy to use (I've appreciated that even more after finding out how difficult some at-home hair dye kits can be to apply). But I got suckered into getting a box of Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour hair dye, because the models on Schwarzkopf hair dye boxes always have gorgeous shades of hair! I've used Schwarzkopf before, I've bought the Palette in Magical Blue Black (no review, only a haul). But I was disappointed with it, because there was only a faint sheen of blue, and the black faded from my hair quite quickly. The trouble with Schwarzkopf also is

Intro Post

Despite the name, this blog is not about carousels or couture (although you never know, that might change?). Nobody likes to spend money on something, only to discover that it does not deliver what it has promised. I sure don't. So I start this blog with the hopes that perhaps it'll help someone find their holy grail. And maybe, I'll find my own on the way too. Expect to find beauty and skincare reviews, book reviews, movie reviews, and current obsessions. Oh, and a little couture here and there too.

Old Town White Coffee Ipoh Hor Fun review

  Who doesn't like Old Town White Coffee? It's so nostalgic, from the furniture they have to the food they serve. It's really like a throwback to the simpler times in Singapore. According to Wikipedia, Old Town White Coffee is the largest kopitiam restaurant chain in Malaysia and has over 180 outlets in the region. Can you believe that? I love their kaya toast and of course, their Ipoh Hor Fun. Why go to Penang when you can just enjoy the Hor Fun here? Normally I get those Ipoh Hor Fun that is served in rich gravy, with not much soup. But this one is served in a clear broth, which is perfect for a light meal that is also filling. At the end of it, you won't feel too full or bloated like if you had something richer. The kway teow is served with generous helpings of prawns and chicken shreds every time I go there (my favourite outlet is Playground at East Coast Park, the area that used to be Big Splash. There are 8 outlets in Singapore at the moment, and they ar
