I'll definitely be giving Perfume Parlour a try when they're back from their holidays. Unfortunately they don't seem to do Armani She but I'll give a couple of random scents a go and see how I like them.0

Has anyone tried the Perfume Parlour version of Angel, is it any good?0

Yes, I bought it for a pal and she was very pleased but she didn't say whether it was an exact match.
I'm currently on the Perfume-Parlour's Cabotine-alike and it's really delicious if you like a fresh soap-like scent. Lovely for daytime0 -
I've ordered some flowerbomb (type) perfume. I'm hoping that it is like the original one as the price of it is crippling!0

just ordered some of these for home made christmas cracker fillers - for a 16 y/o who doesn't know or care any different but could do with smelling a bit sweeter (LOL) & for DH who is the original scrooge & will be OH so grateful @ the cheapness!
i've ordered the 3ml ones, for me - (mans!) issy miyake (but having carried on reading the thread i realise i meant to get caroline herrera lol - never mind!), for hubby - hugo boss, and for DS1 - joop jump!

I am a frequent buyer from Perfume Parlour and have been very satisfied with most of my purchases. I have quite a big selection now and have re-ordered some of my favourites.
I have now settled on the 8ml bottle size which sells for £4.50 each. I find the bottle a better shape and the roller-ball seems to run better on this size. Just my opinion.
Some of the ones I have re-ordered as I like them so much are Issey Miyake, Beyond Paradise (I have got the real thing - the oil is spot on), Simply which has been discontinued by Clinique for some reason and is gorgeous.0 -
Has anyone on here tried any of the Philosophy matches- do they match well?0

Oooh mine isn't here yet. I'm fast running out of Flowerbomb and could really do with the little fragrance asap!0
