Are any of the websites that offer perfume dupes any good? Essence vault?

I find Zara the best for dupes. What are you looking for?

Weefreetiffany · 23/09/2023 22:59

Great thread OP- Ive been looking for a Tom Ford by Tom ford dupe since they discontinued it. Would be very grateful for any ideas

TheHorneSection · 23/09/2023 23:04

Someone on another thread said there was a good dupe for the original and much missed Gucci by Gucci, I’d love that.

HeartshapedFox · 23/09/2023 23:06

Long shot, but are there any good Chanel no 5 dupes out there?

I don't think Perfume Parlour can be beaten. I have a load of their Tom Ford dupes (most of them pretty spot on) and some of discontinued scents I used to love (Gloria by Cacharel is a fantastic one).

Perfume Parlour

Vogue is supposed to be the nearest but I haven’t tried it personally.
You can get it on Amazon

Thanks, I’m going to give that a go!

Zara is amazing
Unexpected Joy is better in my opinion than the original

squareyedannie · 24/09/2023 15:10

Noted Aromas are good.

moonlike · 24/09/2023 15:26

Noted Aromas scents are ok in terms of matching the scent but are really over powering and cloying. They just smell cheap

SoIinvictus · 24/09/2023 15:46

Perfume Parlour are the best ime.
Sadly, their Chanel dupes are not as good as some others. They're also very much hidden and NOT in plain sight as Chanel are understandably very litigious about "dupes". PP change the names of the Chanels regularly.

J’adore by Dior - Rose
Chanel Chance - apple Juice
Baccarrat Rouge (probably spelled that wrong!) - Red Temptation
Gypsy Water by Byredo - Water Lilly Tea Dress
Rose of no man’s land by Byredo - Fashionably London

Zara Ebony Wood (one of my faves!) smells like Tom Ford to me but I can’t remember what one.

If you look online, youll see Zara has soooo many dupes. It’s amazing

Redannie118 · 24/09/2023 16:02

All of Nexts perfumes are dupes. I believe eau Nude is Chanel no5, but I may be wrong? Cashmere is a dupe of Vera wang and I ALWAYS get compliments when I wear it.Summer sun is a cracking dupe of Bronze Goddess. Paradise is D&G light blue and smells divine. I like that they have body washs/creams and sprays so you can layer up.

Weefreetiffany · 24/09/2023 16:21

Thanks, I’m off to perfume parlour!

Yes I agree with above poster that Vogue is not bad.

Startyabastard · 24/09/2023 16:45

Milton Lloyd available on amazon.
They do a very, very good Chanel no 5 dupe which is incredible for a complex scent.

MyDarlingWhatIfYouFly · 24/09/2023 18:00

I'd love to get a dupe of the 2012-ish miss Dior, which was sweeter and muskier than the version that is out now. I was gutted when they changed it - I tried to grab as many bottles of the old version as I could but I've not got any left.

Perfume parlour isn't like the FM perfumes is it? Someone at work used to sell them. Initially they smelt the same then all had a weird smell after an hour

I'd love a dupe for the Gucci floral perfumes and the YSL Libre

No, not at all. It's not an MLM for starters. Their perfumes are really good quality and even the ones that aren't 100% accurate still smell lovely hours later. Great lasting power too, especially the oils. I recommend them on here all the time but have no affiliation with them at all - loads of people seem to really like them.

Thank you @evilharpy

Lidl is great for perfume.
They have dupes, maybe someone would know which ones and what the names are - I just bought them as I loved the smells and someone else told me they are dupes of more expensive perfumes 😊

pinkyponkyplink · 24/09/2023 22:55

I've just ordered dupes for euphoria, gucci flora and YSL Libre. Any more recommendations?
