My friend's dh bought her perfume at cheapsmells (it came through the door with CheapSmells printed on the jiffy bag - nice ) All was fine. In fact, I may use them to get my Mum some perfume for Christmas as it's the cheapest I've found.

I have ordered from Strawberrynet before and DID have to pay tax. Because I ordered a fair amount and all stuff that was quite a bit cheaper, it still made sense to order from the site but you might want to factor in possible tax when calculating savings.

Chuffed · 18/11/2005 05:33

I also paid tax and it defeated the savings basically.

Try Asda. I have just seen Lancombe Miracle 30ml eau de toilette there for £20. In Boots and Debenhams its £30. It was even more Duty Free when my dh went to Korea. They've got loads of different ones for great prices.

(Erm and no, I don't work for them, I work for Morrisons who are pants and sell nothing good at all)

I'm experimenting at the moment with my own brand of perfume if any of you are interested? It'd make a great Stocking Filler! The scent is lovely and dark, rich, malty, just right for winter.

tamum · 18/11/2005 11:52

Same as Chuffed- had to pay a lot of tax and it worked out no cheaper. It is the real thing but you have to watch it with tax.
