Cheap Smell-alikes - Cheaper alternatives to Expensive Perfumes

VioletBaudelaire

Thought I'd join in the thread. Thankyou to those of you who recommended this site.
I'd never tried copies of perfumes before, but am really impressed with the "Kenzo Flowers" and "Obsession" (the male version) Both gorgeous and SO long lasting.
I'm wearing the "Kenzo" at the moment and it's just like the original, great bargain!

Just came across this thread

Had a look on the perfume parlour site - might be tempted to order a few testers ones

Has anyone ordered the Gucci Rush (type) if so is it any good? Im almost out of mine and I absolutly love it! Also the Ghost type one does anyone know what Ghost this is like? I like a fair few of the Ghost perfumes but theres a few I really don't!

Funnily enough, I have got the real thing in Gucci Rush (it was a gift) and I don't really care for it!

However, I have got Perfume Parlour's Ghost both as an oil and in the perfume spray. It is gorgeous. One of my favs.

I have just re-ordered some of the ones I am particularly fond of which were getting low. They are Hugh Boss Deep Red, Davidoff Echo and Issey Miyake. I have had all the genuine articles in these and honestly the copies are exact.

My absolute favourite of the moment though is Miss Dior Cherie. I am not familiar with the original in this one but I have got the oil and the spray from Perfume Parlour and it is adorable.

I've just been to PP site and it seems they have been made to change the way they list their oils. No more "type". They all have different names, like on the eBay shop, but there is a handy link to a list of comparisons. I have printed out a list of the comparisons as this is not allowed under new legislation, sellers may not refer to their goods as "copies" or use the phrases "smells like" or "similar to". :mad:
However I noticed that there are no CK or Chanel types now, and a couple of others have disappeared including a couple of my faves Cabotine and Vera Wang Princess:(
I'm going to email Amir shortly to ask if they are still available (presumably he had stock of these).

Sofababe, I have just had a look at the site for myself. I could only find non-designer oils and did not see the comparison list you refer to. Am I been stupid here (not unusual!).

I will be very upset if I can no longer get the copy oils which I have been enjoying. It is my little treat.

pattycake, just had a look too and i could only find non-designer oils - there was no comparison list either. i am so very sad as i was going to place an order.

if anyone is able to contact amir, please could you let us know what is happening. i am sure that he is inundated with calls, so i dont want to add to his workload by calling too, however, if no one updates on here for a few days, i will try to call him and will update here. : (

On the left hand side where u used to click "3ml oils" it now says , I think, "Perfume Oils for Women (313)" these are the designer types, there is a link that says "Click here for info on these oils" once u are on that page.

Hope that makes sense

I've just had an e-mail back from Amir, he says

Hi,

We are currently changing things around and all the oils have not been listed yet, we are in the process of doing so, hopefully should be done in a few days, if you want you can order directly by sending a payment to base.notez@ntlworld.com and mentioning which oils you want, we are no longer doing a fragrance similar to cabotine.

Thanks

Kind Regards

No more Cabotine. But :T that the site is still running, despite the best efforts of greedy cosmetic houses!
