Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine at 8-10 Mosque Street Happy Lunar New Year to all my readers, wherever you may be. I started work today (19.02.2026). Although not many colleagues were around, I still managed to gather a few close ones for a “start-work lunch” at a fancy restaurant that serves Chinese cuisine. After some discussion, we decided on Xiang Xiang Hunan Cuisine in Chinatown. Even better, it was my first time trying their food. I’ve always known it to be a popular spot with notoriously long queues. Thankfully, we arrived early because right after we were seated, a steady stream of patrons began pouring in. Snacks & Ice Cream Corner for patrons once you enter As we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by the Snacks & Ice Cream Corner located opposite the waiting area. I didn’t even realize it was there until we were about to leave! My colleagues especially loved the Golden Horn Snack, but I thought both options, including the Crispy Crust, were equally good. And yes, that...

They are also a transparent and sustainable brand when it comes to sourcing for natural ingredients and also adopting refillable perfume bottles with reusable packaging.

Maison means 'Home' in French. A House of Scent Designers that believe regardless of where you are from or whether you are knowledgeable about perfume, everyone has the ability to create their own unique scent.
What is 21G?
21G stands for 21 grams. A study done in 1907 by Duncan McDougall who weighed people when they were alive and after they had passed away and realised on average they lost 21 grams. He deduced that 21 grams is the weight of your soul, hence their tagline 'The Scent of Your Soul'.
'Your scent, while working out'
Top, Heart and Bottom notes
The 3 notes that every perfume has wherever it is from:
Top notes being the first impression or your smile, because it's the first thing you smell when you spray the perfume due to it's short and volatile molecular structure. It will last for about 30 mins to an hour max.
Heart notes being the body or character that last longer like 6 - 8 hours.
Bottom notes being the longest and most complex molecular structure. Imagine your soul, or the impression you left behind.
'A continuous scent of your very own'
A Transparent and Sustainable Brand
Being centered by their values in clean and transparency, all formulas and labelling have been established accessible information on the % of biodegradability, renewable carbons, natural ingredients in their chosen perfume, the perfume concentration, cruelty-free and vegan-friendly.
Took the Personality Quiz so that I can create a scent that describes me. Between the two options that were created for me, I chose Bergamot Blast for a fresh and optimistic me. The smell was subtle and not overwhelming, with a hint of zesty and sweetness.
Made a short video to demonstrate on the customization and what was not in the video includes choosing the graphics or uploading your favourite ones and adding your name to the bottle with the different types of fonts and colours.
