Can anyone reconmend a smell alike for Abercrombie & Fitch 'Fierce' heard the PP copy isnt much of it0

Daniel, i have compared Avante next to Creed Aventus and they are pretty much identical. Avante is probably the nicer of the two as it sticks to the pineapple opening without the smokey dry down that Aventus has.
I loved Malt, but when i smelled i smelled Pure Malt i realised i had to make that purchase, and at £40 for 100ml from the TM website, it is worth every penny.
Agree with you on Impearl, and suggest you give Silverish (Notes similar to that found in Silver Mountain Water®) a go also. Another Creed frag.
Spiceboom smells exactly the same as spicebomb, and great for the cold days.
Just ordered a few new oils today
Master, an M7 alike
Shanelle Bluer, chanel bleu
and
Sanital, creed santal
see how they go, heard great things about M70 -
Could anyone please advice which is the best smell alike for Miss Dior ive heard of two Senorita Amor and Flirty by Linn Young but unsure which is the best buy0

Ordered 3 sprays from PP for the missus.
Armani Diamonds - Sister has the original and said " I didnt know you had diamonds". Say no more.
Kenzo Flower - At first it doesnt smell like the original, once it settles however (5-10 mins) its pretty bang on.
D&G The One - Havent smelt the original but this one is very nice, my fave out the 3.
The smell lasts all day, only have to walk it the room and it smells V.nice.
Going to try 3 mens this week.
Code Sport
The One
Bleu de Chanel
They cannot put Chanel next to the name so most or all without the real name are from Chanel (I think)0 -
I just wanted to say that I ordered three separate perfume oils from perfume parlour - only one has a similar scent to the originals. I don't know if I can post the names here or not, but basically the one that had a lighter, more day time fragrance was almost spot on. The two that were much deeper, evening fragrances, I can't detect base, heart or top notes that are at all similar to their originals.0

A bit annoyed with ML
Bought 'new' fragrances America Look and America Gold and they are retreads of America Sport and Pure Gold. Still smell great but I have enough of the latter0 -
I replied on a different thread but thought might aswell post here too might help someone
I buy my smellies from perfectfragrance.co.uk My hubby loves his Diesel fuel for life but 50ml EDT for £46 is kind of a wonce a year gift thing, so when i heard of this site i tried their FM301 its EDP - which is much better, 100ml bottle costs only £16.99 and it smell near enough exactly the same. - FANTASTIC i say. They have loads of stuff actually that i now buy from them. I was dubious in the beginning thinking that price will reflect smell, but after research i found out that they use exactly the same companies as big brands to produce their perfumes therefore its all good quality - I can put my hand on my heart and say that i am never going back to high street to buy perfumes.0 -

I have looked at this site, but cannot find postage and packing costs. How much are these, please?0 -
Disappointed with Violet Fashion by La Femme, which is supposed to be a smell-alike of Ralph Lauren Blue. This is a weak and wishy-washy perfume which disappears within a few minutes. Really poor!0
