I love Emporio Armarni Pink Diamonds - is there a cheap smell-a-like? x

I was about to purchase some perfumes from Perfume Parlour for the first time today but I wondered if any of their perfume oils or ingredients are or have ever been tested on animals? Unfortunately, there is no mention of this on their website and I just wondered if anyone on the forum knows? If not, I will try to contact the company for further information.

I really need to stop buying perfume there is no need for the amount I have now.

I ordered some from Milton Lloyd and they are excellent.

I got
Young Love (Romance am guessing Ralph Lauren Romance?) It smells slightly like Romance by Ralph Lauren but its rubbish in comparison to the real version (i've owned in the past) i'd say skip this one and buy Next Just Pink instead as much closer dupe.

New York Dolls (Boss Femme) one of my all time favourite perfumes in real life and i've owned it in the past. Milton Lloyd version is the exact same. I mean exact same its amazing.

Miss Tutu (Coco Mademoiselle) i've owned this in the past as well the real one and ML smells very similar and you can defo recognise that its Coco Mademoiselle. But to me I feel something is slightly missing from it but still a very good smell alike. Much better than Lidl as it doesn't have the overpowering cheap smell that I feel Lidl vs does.

Spirit of Shadow (Ghost) i've never owned the real version but really like it and wow the Milton Lloyd smells just like it and is gorgeous. It smells so soft and musky but sweet perfect for nightime.

Spirit of Heaven (Angel) i've never owned the real version of this either but I know people really rate it. I've never been that keen but thought i'd try the Milton vs. It smells like Angel (what i've smelt in the shops in the past) but I don't like it. It doesn't smell unpleasant or cheap but has a weird spice undertone am not sure if the orginal has this as well.

Pure Gold Men (One Million) bought this for my boyfriend and he loves it. Smells just like the real version.

The only problem I have found with the perfumes is they don't last that long in my opinion. But for the price they are excellent. I think Perfume Palour last longer but ML works out much cheaper.

I thought I'd try it ...

Supposedly superstar from Milton llyod smells like Euphoria.

I love euphoria ... The Milton llyod smells sweet and nothing like.

Don't waste your money

I tried this in Lidl last week and thought it was a cross between Lem-sips and Vic inhalant rub, ugh, just awful and as is always the way it lasted all day.
Course it's possible that's a description of Hugo Boss Orange, wouldn't know as I've not used that but as I could smell Lemon strongly then there is a citrus connection, but the Lidl perfume was medicinal imo.
Going to try some of the suggestions here though as perfume is my big indulgence and it's so expensive, think I might be a bit over fussy.

Tried a squirt of Marks and Sparks New York today, OMG, it's lovely, but does anyone know what its supposed to be like? To me, it smells a bit like Kenzo Flowers, but I do have a cold..

I posted about Marks and Spencer Perfumes on a thread here a few days ago i think New York is meant to smell like Chanel Allure.
