Oman Dive Center

A day left for Esheng and Han Xiang to play together.  Han Xiang leaving for KL tomorrow.  The water level at the Oman Dive Center was low, so it wasnt much fun at the water but they had fun with the sand beach.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Amouage Perfume Factory

24 December 2009

Amouage Perfumery, produces the most valuable and expensive perfumes in the world. We were given a guided tour of the production process as well as allowing us to test the fragrances. We loved the smell of the perfumes but it was just far much too expensive.  After knowing Amouage, I guess its difficult to like any other perfumes. However, we left the perfumery happy with a sample pack of the perfumes and hand cream for each of us including the children, which was really kind of them.

These are some of the ingredients used to make the perfume.

Jubilation

Gold Flask

 

This is the production line of all the Amouage perfumes produced.  Very very exclusive and expensive perfume........!
