Thank you

I’ve been very impressed with Match Perfumes. I can’t fault the service and products.

I love the ones from Perfume Parlour. They're very close matches and, being oil-based, last ages on your skin.

I love Perfume Parlour's Moving Mallet - near-perfect dupe for Polo Sport Woman which I had in the 90s and was gutted when it was discontinued!
Also Jovial which is a very good dupe of Clinique Happy 😊

Anyone bought any good Jimmy Choo dupes, I know seems to be bit scarce on info. I know I bought Milton Lloyd Red Shoe as a gift which I was told was similar to the original. I found out Blossom was supposed to be like Body Shop Japanese Cherry Blossom Strawberry Kiss EDT or Lattafa Mood Musk. Illicit try Eden Perfumes 306 (Explicit) or 307 ? Jimmy Choo. Also came across Firetrap Passion bottle looks like a Jimmy Choo. I was trying to look at Perfume Parlour but didn't have the bottle numbers. Someone also told me look at Primark ps rose or is it rose gold? Anyone have any good buys?

If you're a fan of Black XS by Paco Rabanne, pink pepper in M&S is the perfect dupe, £9 for 100ml bottle. They also do one which is a dupe for J'adore but I can't remember what it's called

If you like Portrait of a Lady, Match Perfumes do a very good dupe.

Their mmm replica by the fireplace is better than the original
Their opium is like the 1977 version
The gucci eau de parfum is perfect too

Does anyone know if there is a good dupe for Boudoir by Vivienne Westwood. I haven't found anything I like nearly so much since it was discontinued.

Perfume parlours Mojave ghost is spot on. They do this scented dust that we put in a little scent pit on top of the fire. The house smells divine. And expensive.

@Mumsperfume Primark never last very long at all on the skin.
Earlier today I ordered from Eden Perfumes. A dupe for Lancôme Idole. Hoping it’s a good one! As I had a sample but it’s so expensive.

Perfume Parlour dupes I have and love:
Opium (as above, more like the original than the current version) I have both and the PP lasts all day and is richer and spicier like the vintage juice.
Rive Gauche ditto
Prada Infusions d'Iris
Any Jo Malone.
Any Tom Ford. Sahara Noir, Neroli Portofino. Etc.
Guerlain Vol de Nuit. I had the dupe first and then treated myself to the "real thing". The real thing smells like a watered down version.
Actually, any simple linear citrussy based perfume. Easy to recreate. People rave about Neroli Portofino and I agree, it's beautiful. But there are hundreds of dupes for what is actually a very simple orange blossom perfume.

I'm still mourning the discontinuation of Stella by Stella McCartney...has anyone found a decent dupe?? <desperate>
MyOwnVolt · 21/03/2023 07:07
The dupe of Armani Priveè Vert Malachite is very good, it’s called Green Minerals. Unusual scent, Get a lot of compliments.
rosyvalentine · 21/03/2023 18:52
@humphreyweareleaving DIVAIN 655 is a dupe of Stella by Stella McCartney. Haven't tried it though!
Moonflower12 · 21/03/2023 19:01
Do they do a dupe of Chanel Coco? Or does anyone know a good one?

I am similarly devastated. I have the Eden dupe and it's pretty good (£24). As good as the Stella Eau de Toilette which was £70 and only about 75% like Stella.

Does anyone know if there's a dupe for Le Feu d'issy? It's my favourite perfume from early 2000s and I've bought the ones that smell similar to it but they're not 100%

I love Perfume Parlour's Tom Ford lost cherry dupe, astray fruit. DH wears their Gucci Envy copy, he was gutted when the original was discontinued.
