Hullo friends!
Today we're reviewing a brand that I was really excited about- I loved the products and had a good experience but that does not mean I can give it a pass for it's major red flags and shortcomings. Companies gotta do better.

I haven’t had to deal with their customer service but I will say the perfumes I’ve bought were spot on dupes and I’m satisfied with them. They shouldn’t do that with the bad reviews though because we rely on reviews to decide to purchase. I have three that I repeatedly purchase from them and love them

I have ordered from a brand called HK Perfumes Version of Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille Called Dark Vanilla and it looks like the Oakcha bottle. Check them out because I will be the first one doing a short fragrance review on my channel. P.S. Any Advice You Can Give Me On How I Can Improve My Channel. Thanks, Steve...

Thank you for your HONEST review! They just dropped new bottles (June 15th 2023) different colors like light pink, hot pink, white, etc. I purchased 4 fragrances from them and I do like them, a lot actually. I am a fragrance collector and I do spend quiet a bit of money on my perfumes, having these available at the price it is is nice because I can spray these instead of my expensive bottles and not feel bad and still smell really good, lol. As for customer service, I didn’t have to reach out so I really wouldn’t know. I definitely don’t like the sketchiness about the reviews being filtered, I am one who always reads reviews before purchasing anything. Not even high end designer, luxury/niche fragrances have only 5 star great reviews….so, I too call BS, which is a bummer being that they actually do have very good dupes.

I really like Oakcha and have 8 in my collection that I have acquired over the last couple of years. They are cleaner, high perfume oil concentration, and get 90-99% close to the original from the ones I have smelled. When you get them on sales, it is a great value for your money. Oakcha changes their scents every several months and love that

Thank you for the honesty! I recently purchased some full size perfumes from them and I'm a little nervous to try them now. I've heard from several people that the projection when they first tried them was disappointing, and then I read somewhere that it's a good idea to keep the bottles in a dark place for about a week to let the perfumes develop/mature first before trying them out, because apparently they make the perfumes very quickly and that the perfume oils might not be fully matured and incorporated into the mixture when you receive them. So that is what I will do, and then I will try them. I feel like nobody should have to do that honestly, but I really rather not have to return them because I heard it's a pain in the ass.

OH!!! And Thank you for your honesty. It truly sucks just how dishonest people will be if they are offended kickbacks from a company. If your product is weak, then put something into it and make it stronger. I don't understand why they just don't put the time into it and make a better product instead of trying to hide negative information. I just don't understand it at all. I guess it's, get your money and run kinda thing.

Dua makes poor-quality dupes that barely resemble most of their dupes. I was very disappointed. I could accept that isn't a 1-to-1 clone but what I couldn't accept is the total shit cheap quality of what's in the bottle. They smell cheap and chemical. It's almost a a scam. Lots of preblended cheap oils from the middle-east in lots of their fragrances. I do like the bottle and presentation however but that doesn't matter when you can't wear even one of the 10 fragrances I got from them. Alexandra I heard similar horror stories. Generic perfumes I had mixed bad. You could tell they used a lot cheaper ingredients than some of the expensive niche frags they copied but a few of them was decent, like a 70% match. Some just sucked big time though and were un-wearable.

Thank for showing your experience. I Really enjoy Oakcha! (Not sponsored, but damn- can y'all? 😆). I have about 12 bottles. I liiike. My experience with customer service was fine. I showed them pictures of a dented & chipped bottle, as well as letting them know my fragrance smelled like nothingness/bad batch, and they sent a second bottle right away. Overall, they've been good. I wish there were more video reviews out there. I feel like even though they're always marketing, not that many know about them. I didn't find out about them until i looked for a dupe of baccarat and saw that Oakcha was highly regarded by scent youtubers. Some of them can seem a little similar, but i think letting them settle helps a lot. Aside from wishing they came in 2 business days 😅, they're solid.

I was too scared to order from them, I am obsessed with perfume. I have been learning how to make my own for about 2 years now. In fairness to that company, most huge designer perfumes do not put the actual ingredients on the list. Most of the time the notes are synthetic because naturals are volatile and expensive. The listed notes are just describing what it smells like. A perfume ingredients list would look like a science project. Some synthetic chemicals are actually much safer than it's natural version, but the chemical name would scare people out of buying it. Also, why would they tell you what's in it and lose money because everyone would just make their own.

I just bought love don't be shy, lost cherry, tobacco vanille and angels share. I found them to be super strong and last a really long time, I'll still smell it the next day on my clothes. They have a higher concentration of oil than most fragrance. I don't really like how they are oily when I put them on, I like how most frangances are alcohol and dissolve off. I feel like the ingredients aren't super high quality compared to other brands and the originals. I'm returning lost cherry, it smells like cherry cough syrup and some sandalwood. Angels share doesn't smell that great compared to the original. It lacks a lot of the notes and rich quality of the original. I'm returning that one too. Love don't be shy and tobacco vanille are pretty good so I'll keep those. They are ok if your in a tight budget and want something decent. For me I think I'd rather pay more to get better quality ingredients and frangances. I don't think I'll buy from them again.

Here Is my thought you are buying a cheaper version of a product that for the original you would pay 3 times the amount for . If it smells good to you and hits all the bells and whistles just like the original for me that's a win . So for me if those reviews are fake it doesn't matter as long as I was happy in the end .

Absolutely! I personally enjoy the scents I have- However because I’m publicly reviewing them and that might influence someone else, I have to be more speculative and a little harsher with the company. Lots of commenters are giving honest feedback in my comment section and it seems like tons of people actually hated the fragrances- either found them medicinal or sickly. While I enjoyed my fragrances, the reportedly bad customer service, faulty return policy, and overall really mixed feelings people have about the scents just mean I can’t recommend others buy their line on my recommendation is all! :) But personally, I like what I got- even if I might not repurchase from them again!

All I wanted is a good perfume that last and yes the ones I had delivered! The only issue I have is when it drys on you skin it get weird and tacky , it’s not much of an issue for me but if someone had seonsory issues they would probably have issues with it
@CGeis21
@CGeis21 4 месяца назад
I noticed the “tackiness” too. It’s a heavy oil concentration and it really does take a long time to absorb if you spray too much in one area. Also the atomizers on mine spray so much out that I can only spray once on any given pulse point. The way I’ve found around the tackiness is try to spray farther away then you normally would and try not press super hard all the way down on the atomizer. Misting an area rather than more so coating it seems to work better for these.

That’s really good to know that at least some negative reviews are shown now, I still can’t sort them on their desktop site but maybe the mobile version is different! Either way I’m glad it looks like they’re representing themselves a little more honestly. My designer ones don’t list the ingredients on the packaging- however if you google them they should come up! Usually these results are pulled off of websites like Sephora or Ulta, but sometimes the fragrances own website will list it!

I’ve honestly really liked dealing with oakcha so far but I’m only 2 orders in (5 fragrances) so that could still change. I ordered their dupe of green Irish tweed because I tried the OG from scentdecant and really loved the profile but the performance was so bad (like two hours on my skin tops) I just couldn’t justify spending hundreds on it. Im so happy I decided to order from them. The oakcha is slightly mintier and stronger than the OG green tweed but very similar, maybe 90%, but performance of the oakcha is INSANE. I’ve kind of been in disbelief by how long it lasts especially if it lands on clothes. My best performing fragrance for sure the next probably being sauvage elixir. I also love the dupe of Bleu le parfum. Smells exactly like the original I have and lasts a bit longer. The others were good for the price, nothing too crazy or special but I do think the quality and performance of all the fragrances are very nice. Maybe it’s just because I’ve ordered more masculine fragrances? I’m not sure. I’m waiting on their peach rings from their candy collection which is unisex so I’ll get to see how the performance is on a less gender specific scent. Picked it over their dupe of bitter peach by TF because the profile seemed it might suit me better although I have a feeling I’ll wind up giving it to a female family member anyway lol. Also on the negative reviews end. I don’t know if it’s a recent change but I actually have seen a lot of their fragrances get average to bad overall reviews with no words minced. Even their “popular” ones have some but I do think it’s funny that EVERY single dupe of they have of super popular fragrances have the same overall rating. My best advice I can give is always look elsewhere for reviews of a fragrance, or really anything for that matter, that you’re interested in buying online regardless of what’s shown on the manufacturers website. Overall I think oakcha is a place where you can find some nice scents for a decent price, I don’t think I’ll wind up being one of the super fans with the whole line up but I’m glad I was able to get a couple of solid fragrances from there. Oh and for any guys, or women I suppose, wondering the name of oackhas dupe of creed with the crazy longevity it’s called “recharged”

@@JosyBun Though Korres perfumes are not dupes; The Midnight Dahlia smells like Valentino Born in Roma. Black Sugar smells like Prada Canda x Pink Sugar. The Vanilla Freesia smells like Flowerbomb xtreme. I have found that fragrances that are mostly synthetic notes give me migraines. But fragarances that are at least half natural (50%) do not give me a migraine. Currently I wear LOCCITAINE Cherry Blossom and let me tell you it is beyond gorgeous and the ingredients are superb. But given you too have migraines, Korres may be a house for you to consider. Sad though that the perfume you bought has such fishy practices. This is why i am sick of department store cosmetics and fragrances. They are not transparent.

I recently purchased Seven from Oakcha. Such a disappointment! Not only did it not smell like Baccarat Rouge 540, it didn't smell like any perfume at all. If I had to describe it I would say medicinal, like surgical tape or a freshly opened band aid. So now that I'm looking at the company more closely you can see there are no product reviews in the last year so clearly they are being selective about reviews they allow to be posted. Shipping is also very sketchy. They send a shipping notice right away but my package wandered around for weeks up and down the east coast before it actually got to a USPS facility; once it actually got to USPS it only took a day to get to me.

That IS strange. In the past they were good about replacing a bottle, make sure to reach out! And that's sad I have Sweven and it definitely is strong, but it smells like baccarat without that open/widespread feeling, if that makes any sense. But chile, I have baccarat too, and I ain't spray it yet. The way i smell it without even opening it. I'm scared. Yana from TheScented said the same- good dupe, but probably like 85% because it's missing that feel. She has a few oakcha vids, recommending some even better dupes too.. I wouldn't discount Oakcha altogether. The good thing about them is with these prices, you can play around a lil. Their other company, Oil Perfumery is really good. (Cheaper to get a glimpse of the actual fragrance). I just wish I was consistent with rolling an oil on. I know you can pop the ball out or whatever, but ugh. Other options are mercari (I'd really only trust used bottles rather than "new, wrapped" etc. which are probably fake.) and also BR540 has their smaller bottles for $175 which look to be a decent size too. Good luck on your fragrance journey.

That was 2 days ago now and i haven't heard a thing back from them. No confirmation of shipping, nothing. My order has not been processes or shipped, but they took my money already. With most companies, you don't pay anything until the product ships, so now I'm wondering if I'm going to even get my order at all now. Very pissed with their sucky customer service - or LACK of.

I'm super disappointed that you didn't review the perfume itself that you wore as far as give us an in-depth breakdown after having worn it of what you thought. I mean thanks for telling us about the website but there was plenty of good reviews so we might still want to order it. how did it perform?!?!?!?

@JosyBun Год назад
It was decent enough! I mention in the video I liked the products I purchased, and I still do! In my opinion, it’s similar to the original, much milder and doesn’t last quite as long. You’d definitely need to reapply these to maintain the fragrance throughout a whole work day. But for the price that’s expected in my opinion! A lot of others have noted they think the perfumes smell medicinal, which I did not experience but many have stated that, and many also say they don’t think it compares to the original, so it seems the perfumes are extremely hit or miss.

I had the same experience with them. Bought several, was very disappointed by projection and longevity of the smell, especially in comparison with original they clone, wrote several not 5 stars reviews and neither one got posted. I contacted them about that and never heard back. Enough for me to consider it a scam and never bother with them again. You don't pay less for a quality product as they claim it, you rather waste your money for something you could save for a real thing.

What do you expect though? It's a dupe, of course it's not going to have the same exact projection and longevity, you're paying 35 dollars over 100+. It's an impression offered at a lower price. You guys want the exact same quality and scent for a fraction of the cost, that's copyright infringement. You're not going to get Baccarat Rouge in a different bottle.

This is all true, but I didn’t even get 15 mins out of their Baccarat Extrait dupe. I’ve bought $15 Bath and Body Works sprays that last longer than that. For $50 I would expect to get a least a couple hours of wear.

I LOVE Oakcha’s fragrances. They are phenomenal & last for weeks on clothing. I always spray a shirt hanging in my closet with a fragrance to get a sense of the longevity. I will say that Oakcha does not have the best customer service what so ever lol but honestly I will continue putcsning from them because it’s phenomenal quality at an affordable price. Now if they can create a fragrance that’s inspired by Thierry Mugler’s Alien…omg I would be in HEAVEN. I’m left handed too, love!!! ♥️

Company ethics wise, they seem decent enough with a solid return policy! I like that they come with a sample size so you can return the full bottle if you want to. The bottle design is minimal and clean, I like the magnetic caps. Fragrances I’ve tried from them have been “ehh”. I like them enough to use them, but they’ve got this sort of powdery smell that lingers behind all the main notes. It could just be my bodies chemistry, so I won’t fault the company as a whole for that! I likely wouldn’t repurchase from them until I hear they reformulate because of that powdery quality, but I will finish the three bottles I have!

I’m definitely not a fragrance expert and never would claim to be! I just was super suspicious, especially having witnessed the beauty community go through tons of un-disclosed sponsorships years ago, that it was happening again in the fragrance world. I totally understand wanting to spend less money on fragrances, especially on the onset of a recession. I also get doing sponsored content- but not disclosing that and also lying on your website just really gets me mad so I had to call it out! I’m sorry it seems like you had to learn with your wallet, I hope you’re in a better spot now!

However, I can attest to the review portion, they still haven’t posted my 1 star Forbidden Grass (it smelled putrid, like rubber & weed lol) review, from like 1-2 months ago. I think they don’t approve many of their negative reviews. That’s very unethical, and I don’t enjoy no ingredients clearly listed on the packaging. Do better Oakcha.

Ah, shame to hear that! I tend to like more masculine fragrances myself, anything with wood, tobacco, bourbon or leather notes is usually a favorite of mine. I think more masculine notes have to be a bit better quality, cheaper ones sometimes smell a bit sour to me- I think sweeter fragrances must be easier to make cheaply. You could always gift it to someone else, if you can’t return it! :) At least then it goes to good use!
