  • Hi

    Can anybody tell me if M & S Bohemia is a copy of anything?

    Thanks - I love this thread!

  • Got Stealth (Stella McCartney) and Agenda (Agent Provocateur) last year. Both gorgeous, not sure they were "exact" copies, lots of compliments on both. Probably preferred Stealth.

    Just had some of the "unisex oils" delivered - the ones that aren't similar to a perfume but just scent of something, as I'm obsessed with getting more minimal with my appearance and a perfume seems too....complicated :o. I got Rose Petals, Orange and Ginger, and Green Tea and Cucumber. All smell lovely. Have the Green Tea and Cucumber on now, must say though its nice its not very "fresh and tea like" which is what I was expecting.
  • I'm selling Dupe perfums on markets in Nort Wales.
    You can email me for list.
    1 for £8,-- 2 for £14,-- 3 for £ 18,--
    Men and Woman.
    There all made in EU and 100ML bottles.
    Also looking for outlets??:j

    Hi

    I cannot comment on copy perfumes but I've been saving myself money by buying my perfumes from FM Cosmetics for the past 12 months. They are produced by one of the largest and well respected manufacturers in the world 'DROM' and are then bottled with a minimum of 20%/16% perfume oils for ladies and men so last for ages.

    I have just recently signed up to save myself even more and to earn a little extra cash. If anybody would like some samples in a tester wallet please let me know.

    Thanks

    I would! - Sorry this is a slightly old thread I know, but I am looking for my perfect perfume. So if the above poster is still around please PM me!

    Also, does anyone know of cheap alternatives to:

    Estee Lauder - Bronze Goddess - the one that smells like holidays in the sun.
    Or any of the Jo Malone perfumes, as these all look like they will smell lush but not got a Boutique close to me and they will not send me any testers (and I'm not forking out £4/£5 plus postage for one small vial off ebay!). So an alternative would be fine in my eyes (and on the purse!).

    Many thanks all.

    :)

    Next Cashmere smells incredibly like Estee Lauder's Sensuous Nude.

    just come across this thread after googling 'poundworld perfume'

    the one you're probably on about is 'the story of rose' from poundworld, after googling the viktor and rolf images.... we bought some last week and it's actually gorgeous, but i don't know what it's a copy of....that's why i was googling!

    anyway, recommended :j
  • I love D&G light blue and i just lost my bottle somewhere. I will definitely hit M&S and get me a bottle of Azure Breeze! Thanks

    There's a shop in Wakefield that sells alot of the 'Milton Lloyd' smell a likes someone mentioned earlier. They are £3 and the ones I tried smell just like the full price aftershaves. They also sell another make that is 100ml for £4 :j. They have men's and ladies. I've had the Jean paul gaultier , 1 million, Diesel only the brave, Diesel Fuel for Life and Armani Code. They all smell just like the originals

    Would this be "The Look" shop in the Ridings? or somewhere else?
    I have found "The Look" to have a huge range of perfumes, some hard to find too and their prices compare quite well to internet, if I can't find what I want on internet or I just can't wait for delivery(!!) I ask in there first.
    Not noticed any dupes though ( not that I was looking for dupes).
