Commenting mainly to place mark but my favourite is the opium dupe….Gardenia, I always get comments when wearing about how nice I smell

My favourites are: Golden decade, hypnotic vanilla, fashionably London, Energetically new York.

They have a bad habit of discontinuing perfumes.

A stranger asked me what perfume I was wearing yesterday (Fashionably London) which was lovely and it’s obviously stronger than I thought!

I walked behind someone into Tesco at lunchtime and had to stop her to ask what perfume she had on - it was Fashionably London (and some is now winging it's way to me! 😁)

@Mmmkaay
Fashionably London is soooo good and extremely reasonably priced.
My bottle has been mysteriously depleting itself…DD, looking at you!
I need to buy another bottle!

Hey! If you’re looking for a Zara fragrance that lasts, you might want to check out some of their fresh floral options or sweet gourmand scents – they have quite a few gems. I personally love exploring different options on AW Scents to see what fits my style and mood, and it’s been really helpful in discovering fragrances I truly enjoy.

Is there anyway to get samples of them? I really would like some new scents but no idea what any smell like. I have no shops near me like a department store to even sniff some of the more expensive ones to get an idea.

Anyone who likes Vanilla Powder by Matiere Premiere but not the price tag nor the strength (its very very strong) , Vanilla Immortal is a really good dupe .

Zara is well-known for making affordable yet long-lasting perfumes that often feel similar to luxury fragrances. Some of the best and strongest Zara perfumes include like Zara Vibrant Leather

Always nice when someone notices your fragrance — it’s a sign of real quality. I’ve had the same reaction when wearing scents from AW Scents, they truly stand out.

I love Fields at Nightfall and Elegantly Tokyo both of which are lasting. I also have and rate Spirited Romance which is a floral.

I bought Fashionably London after it came recommended on here and I get lots of compliments whenever I wear it. I don’t even think it’s that nice, but everyone else loves it! They now sell an intense version of it too.

My friend who refuses to wear perfume as she hates it normally was a big fan of Fashionably London when I wore it around her. She then asked a random person who smelt lovely what she was wearing…it was Fashionably London. She went & bought it immediately despite not having worn perfume for absolutely years. It obviously does have an impact!
