Perfume dupe

I need a new perfume but funds a little tight at the moment due to house renovations and big birthdays coming up.
Have any of you tried noted aromas? I keep seeing this advertised on Facebook. I love penhaligons halfeti and noted aromas do a dupe. Just wondering if it’s any good.

A lot of people seem to like the M&S dupes

I have quite a few of the Zara dupes. Most are fantastic. Some are a bit meh. They also do 'Jo Loves' which aren't dupes but made by Jo Malone. I can't say a bad word about those.

I've just bought 3 of the Le Labo dupes from Aldo. Not great and I shoud have saved my money.

I've had a few from Perfume Parlour in the past. Again, some great ones some not so great. The ones I got as a roll on oil lasted for ages on my skin and were lovely.

Zara dupes are great. M&S do some lovely dupes but they don’t last very long on.

I get compliments on the Perfume Parlour Halfeti dupe @Birdy65
Not tried the one you mentioned, but will next time.

I’ve got Penhaligon’s Halfeti & The Essence Vault’s 186 - can barely tell the difference & it lasts for ages too.

Thank you. I have just placed an order with The Essence Vault’s 186. It was buy one get one free. For £15.99 it was definitely worth a go.

My perfumes have arrived from The Essence vault and I am impressed. I know it’s not completely like halfeti, but it is very similar. My husband was not able to tell the difference.
There was an offer to get one free, so I decided on a second perfume based on Portrait of a Lady. I love it and I think it will be my favourite.

I sprayed them on around 9am and the scent is still there.

I would definitely recommend if you’re on a budget and can’t afford £££ on perfumes.
