Hi Sarah, thank you for sticking to affordable perfumes! We're about to enter a recession in UK and I can't imagine being able to spend much on fragrance. Also I'm feeling like, despite absolutely loving how mainstream fragrance has gotten through youtube and tik tok, the prices have almost doubled across the industry compared to like 4 years ago.

Green Tea is one of my staples! It is a real mood enhancer, I think it is def some sort of aromatherapy! I was in a bad mood for a while and this fragrance lifted my mood for months, it literally lifted me out of some ongoing bad vibes a few years back. Fun idea!!

You're singing my song. Though I could buy a more expensive fragrance here and there, I just won't do it on principle. I've found plenty of gorgeous affordable fragrances from La Rive, New Brand (love their Olympea dupe!) as well as ones like Britney Spears Prerogative, Sofia Vergara's Sofia and Love as well as the Cuba fragrances you clued me into and miscellaneous others like Oscar Lavender by Oscar de la Renta and Be Seduced Girl by Johan B. I've found I'm a gourmand girl for the most part. ~Cynthia

@@perfeptions I can tell you that New Brand Hola and Cuba Victory are both Olympea dupes. There are quite a few New Brands that are good. New Brand Sensual is a Jean Paul Gaultier Scandal by NIght dupe. La Rive Sweet Hope is Dior Poison and La Rive Fleur de Femme is Poison Girl while La Rive Madame In Love is Gucci Flora. There are quite a few dupes that are pretty good. The Be Seduced Girl by Johan B. is a Good Girl dupe. You really have to do a lot of research on them because the brands do not usually tell you what they're duping, unfortunately.

Thanks for all these recommendations!! I can get as much joy from perfumes that cost a few €, as from ones for 2, 3 hundred. It's all testing & careful selection anyway. Lalique has given me some major new favorites recently. And the Middle Eastern ones! Armaf, Lattafa. And omg, Dirham Wardi by Ard Al Zafaran. Which I find to be a marvelously done _sort of_ Good Girl > Delina hybrid.

Hi Sarah! You made me buy a few of these lol. I bought SJP NYC Crush and NYC original. At first I did find them a little sinthetic smelling. My daughter loved the original so now is hers. A few months later I tried Crush again and now I like it very much. I also own the Armaf one, is very special but I don’t wear it very much. I recently bought Eau my secret and it is really really nice! I also bought Jeanne and I didn’t like it as much, I’ll try it in a few months again. I haven’t tried EA green tea in years. And Chanel Eau Tendre I thought that it was all hype but I got a sample of the EDT and it is really nice but I don’t see myself buying it and paying that much owning so many perfume. So I’m super interested in a dupe for this one. I haven’t tried the other perfumes that you mentioned so I’ll check them out!

Green Tea was a blind buy for me at Marshall's and what a wonderful surprise! It was refreshing, the drydown was beautiful and long lasting on me (longevity is an issue for me with many other fragrances). This will definitely become a staple in my collection (along with Tommy Girl, also a new affordable discovery for me and long lasting on my skin.)

Bellla Blanca by Oscar De La Renta reminds me of Chance eau Tendre. I must try Moschino's I Love Love - it sounds like a lovely summer scent. You said Oscar de la Renta's Lavender is your favourite cosy bedtime scent. Mine is Burberry Brit Rhythm (the lavender again!), followed by Trussardi My Name and occasionally NR's Poudree.

Hi there! If you like sugar, caramel, or gourmand scents I think it’s and 8 out of 10 that you will like it.

I just received Pink Sugar and unfortunately it wasn’t a safe blind buy for me. My bf and I both sprayed it on to test and he liked it but I found it nauseating and almost strangely plasticky smelling. I have many perfumes at all price points and Ive not come across one that has caused this issue. Idk why and it’s a let down since I was quite sure that if anything it would be too sweet. I do find this really strange and wonder if it’s off for some reason? Anyways, I smell the potential and appreciate that but it seems it’s just not for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

My favorite coconut fragrance is FCUK friction her its a LOVEEEE🤎 and it's soo cheap like 9$ I have the 5 flo oz I got for like 13$ love it!!! But it's light so if you like friction try orientica's new fragrances called arte bellissimo exotic!!! The bottle is beautiful and it's a more luxurious version of friction it projects more and the bottle and box is amazing!!! The romantic one is another new release and it's smells like delina or atomic rose by inito if they had a baby! They are so amazing!!!
