Influenced by another thread about people complimenting on the perfume your wearing - What's your favourite perfume under £25 ?
I haven't purchased a perfume for a few years and want to try a few new ones.

Next Just pink because it's a dupe for Ralph Lauren Romance, and Next Paradise has always been a fave of mine too.

LouLou, nostalgic as well.

I still love CK One after all these years. I also love Karl Lagerfeld New York Mercer Street - fresh and clean smelling.

Not exactly what you were asking but I’d recommend buying a tester set (Penhaligon’s ‘scent library’ or Maison Margiela’s replica set).

Or, as has been mentioned, Perfume Parlour (the Tom Ford dupes are good).

Really intrigued to try SJP as it’s always mentioned and the Next one!

Cloud by Ariana Grande

Not really perfume, but I wear some of the Victoria Secrets body spray, I stared using my dd's after she bought some but was told I had to get my own. I wear it every day rather than perfume

I loved Exclamation! I still have a bottle I sniff for those 90s memories.

I also loved Exclamation! Had forgotten all about it until now. Shame it was discontinued.

Pinkywoo · 06/03/2023 19:34

I loved the original pink soap and glory but it's been discontinued.

TheFormidableMrsC · 06/03/2023 19:39

Vetiver Pamplemousse by Zara. In fact they do loads of lovely fragrances for very little money but that is my favourite.

Any of the Aldi Jo Malone dupes because I can splash them on with wild abandon and keep my real ones for occasions.

Recently picked up a Jo Malone dupe from Home Bargains (Honey & Jasmine) which has been commented on every time I've worn it. I think it was about £3.

&OtherStories Sicilian Sunrise.

I'm shocked at all the SJP Lovely referrals - I think it's awful! Deffo test that one before ordering OP!
