Sincerity, poetry, strength. The soul of a new man, mirrored in a new fragrance: Shiseido Basala cologne, from Shiseido. An incandescent encounter of Occidental fire and Oriental depth. A fragrance that touches the heart. A flash of energy and spirit with depths of tranquility, mystery, intelligence. Basala cologne, from Shiseido. A bold scent with notes of lavender, bergamot, coriander, jasmine, patchouli and oakmoss. It stays with a man for hours and becomes his own signature fragrance.
Excelent perfume! Strong, but not sickening. I´m trying to find it with no success... what happened?? I have 5ml or so that I´m using rarely to save this exquisite fragance.
I love this perfume very much. The smell is fantastic but could not find this in the market anymore. Discontinued??? Why discontinue as BASALA is fantastic perfume.
Hi, a co-woker of mine admires the scents of all my fragraces, but told me to add basala to my list but there isnt any cologne out. I been trying for 2yrs.whats up! Halla back.
Is this being made as I have looked for it in Paris London Rome and Hong Kong only to be told it is discontinued. Is this correct??
AFTER USING THIS LOVE POTION AT A CLUB THIS PAST WEEKEND, I WAS CONVINCED OF IT'S SEXUAL AND COMMANDING POWER IT HAS OVER MYSELF WEARING IT AND THE WOMEN THAT SMELLED IT. THIS WILL DEFINITELY BE MY GO-TO SCENT FOR THE MOST SPECIAL OCCASIONS POSSIBLE. AN UNDER THE RADAR CLASSIC THAT WILL BE MY LIFETIME KEEPER.
THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST I EVER SMELLED UPON RECEIVING THE SAMPLE IN THE MAIL. IT SOLD ME ENOUGH TO GET A LARGER BOTTLE SOON. A FUTURE KEEPER.
I think the courier charge is higher than the perfume itself. coz i'm at malaysia. lol
This is THE find of the year for me. It is totally amazing. It smells green, woody, spicy, smokey, insensy and something in it does remind me of plastic, that vivid plastic subtleness really gives it a mysterious character. If evil had a smell this would be it. It's as if Satan had walked the earth carrying with him trails of fire that could not be extinguished.
Sorry guys, I just didn't find anything appealing about this particular scent...
Hmmm...maybe you could try THE INTERNET? It's for sale right here on Perfume Emporium.
my husband and I love the smell sooooo much but we can't find at store anymore .. where can I buy it ?
I bought my Shiseido Basala several years ago (5 FL Oz). I still have a small amount left. I use it sparingly. I recently met a wonderful woman. She called me the day after our most recent date. She told me she didn't shower until the next morning because of the wonderful smell of my cologne. This fragrance is one of the very best !
There are many fine mens fragrances today,such as Prada,the sublime new Burberry London,and Sean Jean,for example,but absolutely NOTHING comes close to this Exotic,Erotic,Hypnotic,Narcotic Potion! Score yourself a Bottle of this,and U2 Could Dismantle an Atomic Bomb!!!
Words can't do justice to this amazing Cologne-Suffice it to say,from the first jolt of the very aptly described "Occidental Fire,"throughout the luscious,spicy,organic drydown,this is the WORLD'S BEST!!
To make you feel better, I am 24 and wear this stuff. To make you feel more better, I also wear stuff made in the early 1900s, and also some colognes that people call "old manish". If you try YSL Rive Gauche Pour Homme you'll see what i mean, it's one of my favorite fragrances. The truth of the matter is if you like something, wear it. Personally, i dont place my fragrances into age groups because it limits my capability to explore the fragrance world. I guess it also depends on where you're coming from. If you wear fragrances solely for the enjoyment of others and to get positive feedbacks from them, then it might not be for you if they think you smell 'old manish'. But if wear fragrances for the sake of yourself and not just others, then regardless of your age you're able to wear anything you like with confidence, and that should be the mentality of fragrance appreciation.
I have tried this masterpiece the other day. Just wonder if it is suitable for a 22 dude like me ? Thanks for feedback guys!
Starts off with citrus and drys down in to spices and oriental wood. Powerful but not overpowering, good stuff.
Hey Barb, sorry that was not what i meant. I forgot to put it in my previous post, it actually smells nothing like v......it's just that the packaging is really interesting. The picture on the box suppose to be a vagina as i've heard, i dont know why but if you get the box you'll know what i mean, i dont know what the vagina has to do with the cologne, but nontheless it is very interesting. Sorry for the confusion by the way.
Cologne Collector certainly doesn't mince words! I was thinking of purchasing this for my man, but not sure I want him walking around smelling like female anatomy!
This cologne is amazing, but hard to find, thank goodness for the internet
...do women even like this? I haven't actually had a chance to wear this during the evening but this is for sure a very unique and scintillating fragrance. But where are the female reviewers??
Exotic, deep, smoky, dry, alluring, magnetic...can't find enough words to describe this amazing potion.
Oh my! A complete mystery to all who's smelled this on me. Deep, mysterious, long-lasting and awfully masculine spicy-floral is a masterpiece from the designer who I think I'll become friends with in due time.
I happen to be in U.K and prior to my trip had smelled in a fashion magazine.So Immediately i saw it in one of the retail shops.I exclaimed wow!1 that,s the good stuff so i quickly grabbed 3.4Floz of that stuff. And most interesting part o it too is that is not what you smell on any dude that you come across like the Hugo boss,coolwater and stuff and by time people is too late. Anyway kenneth cole's signature is also another wonderful stuff for grabs so look out for that too.
Shocking! Shockingly good this stuff! It's probably one of the most unique fragrances i've ever had the chance to come across. This smells like a chypre, there's also a smoky and woody character to it. Words just simply cannot describe this cologne. This is about as good as it gets in the fragrance industry! Definitly top 3 material of all time!
I am glad that Perfume Emporium has it now as this cologne was very hard to find for me. This cologne is amazingly kickbutt. The greatest aspect of this fragrance is that it is very enigmatic with a dash of mysteriousness about it. It smells nothing like others instead when people notice it they will surely ask you as to what you are wearing. I recommend this cologne to be worn during evening time especially out on date. Take my word for it - you will be peeling off the girl like a spatula!!!
This is an extremely masculine spicy cologne. I first bought it about maybe 9 years ago and it still stands the test of time and is as good as any of the newer aftershaves / EDT that are available. Try it, never turn back
