We're now knee deep into the cost of living crisis, with rampant inflation into the double figures, and everyone who's anyone is trying to reign in on their spending habits. Food, gas, electricity, hospitality, pubic houses, childrens football tickets .. but you all get the idea as we dig in for the upcoming mellie of 2023.
It's time to buy some new perfumery for the wife and I, so was hoping to be able to grab a deal in the January sales, but the nice gear appears to be holding it's own, with Flower bomb 125 ml at the £114 and Daisy fresh 100ml @ the £104. One of my own favourites called Stronger With You is reasonably priced @£64 for 150ml at one high street outlet, but the big boys are punting it at £86 but do remember those Boots points ?
I guess all the average man/lady in the street wants is for is a pleasing fragrance that holds well to the nostril and carry's a certain amount of longevity. We're in that camp but we no longer want to pay a £1 a milliliter to hobnob with the best.
So we are trying out a few perfume clones to see if we can achieve value and quality at a sensible price. There are quite a few companies out there that offer this service and a few shops that are offering copy smells, the trick is to weed out the wheat from the chaff.
I can tell you now that Madam Glamour which is a Channel knock from Lidl is fair to middling at a fiver but holds the consistency of piss, having to be reapplied copious amounts throughout the day. A lot of online reviews say that Avon do a good clone of Daisy called Eve, so we ordered a tester form them for £3 to be on the safe side.
We've also ordered 10 x 3 ml testers from an online company called Blossoms that with discount codes applied cost £16.
I will let you know how they pan out. I'm well aware that all that glitters isn't gold but they do say God loves a trier.
Has anyone off here used any clones/dupes that they can recommend?
