Thank you, Gothic Princess, for those informative posts.

Anyone know if the perfume palour sprays are as good as the oils. Its a bit hard to rub the oils on your clothes especially if your wearing white, so the spray be better.

pattycake

The sprays are very good and long lasting on the skin. Personally, I think the oils are better value but my OH likes the sprays as it is less effort to apply!

Does anyone know anything about Virtualbrands perfumes? They are exceptionally cheap, but are they any good?

hi ive personally not used any of them might be worth buying one and trying it out ive only ever bought milton lloyd creation lamis and few carrol ones since they seem to be in the same price range as milton lloyd i would say its a safer bet to go with the milton lloyd ones since they are fairly good
