I love BBW Fairytale for the YSL Libre dupe. I use as a layer but it’s so spot on nobody can tell. I also purchases Misguided Babe perfume as my dupe for Delina Exclusif. BBW Hello Beautiful is not so much a dupe but similar notes and adds beautiful depth to Gucci Flora Gardenia
One of my recent discoveries is an amazing dupe! It’s extremely close and a major difference in price. I was in target and sprayed Tonka Bean by Solinotes on my arm. I walked around with it and kept thinking, “this smells like something I already have.” It’s Lost Cherry by Tom Ford! It’s about 90% similar. And the Solinotes one has pretty good longevity. The 50 ml Tom Ford perfume was $350. Actually , it’s $390 for 50 ml now, but I swear it was less than that when I got it. I got the Solinotes perfume on sale for $16! 😮
New subscriber here...and fellow Jamaican. After nearly 10 years of not buying a perfume ( couldn't commit to the silly prices with a lovely young family of husband n four kids)....l bit the bullet and now own five new perfumes, thanks to you and your amazing recommendations!! You are lovely! Thank you so much for videos like these!
@@ShanaJ miss Shana...my perfumes ...all blind bought by your recommendations have arrived. I love them all!!! Thank you so soooooo much! This 40 yr old mommy...feels amazing!!!! Also ....just realized...you share my name! My name is also Shoshana!!!!😳😱
wow....great dupes. i have recently made an order with Juliana perfumes for Scarlet Letter, which is supposed to be a dupe for Alien Essence Absolu. It come with a couple of samples as well so I will let you know about it.
Hello shana Great Video I love love irresistible Great perfume i think That Mademoiselle By rochas is a Great alternativ as well its more sparkling and lasts better i think and its cheapier Have a great day Greetings from turkey 🌹💋
You are awesome 👍🏽 Question ❓ Tatiana by Diane Von Furstenberg ...I wore it for years. real old school 🙂 it's been discontinued. Can you recommend a dupe for Tatiana? I'd really appreciate it. Thank you ❤️
I’ve been disagreeing with you about Amethyst for months! I think my description of it was, “smells like poopurri in a used bathroom” 😂😂 I almost de cluttered it twice! HOWEVER, after letting it sit for some months now, I finally caught those berries and not just the musk! I don’t know what happened to my nose between then and now, but it is sooooo good! It’s definitely different. But absolutely lovely! You were right and and I just had to give you your flowers! 💐💐
Ha ha ha lol. Just kidding! It's a pretty, ugly fragrance but it's good. I really adore it's quirky, feminine and unique character. You MUST have a mature nose to understand her. Thanks for your updated feedback lol.
@@ShanaJ 😂😂😂 It definitely has to grow on you. I couldn’t get past that sharp green note on top of the musk at first. But I’ve been dabbling in some niche fragrances lately and I guess my nose is starting to mature. I definitely understand it better now. It’s meant to be a realistic berry still on the bush. Kind of in the same vein as the melon with the rind of L’Imperatrice. It’s not an everyday wear for me but I’m starting to really appreciate it sprayed with a light hand every once in a while.
Hey Shana, OMG.... this was a great video. I love the fact that you inform the viewers about the dupe fragrances because everyone can't afford the pricey fragrances and this gives them a chance to smell good.
I had no idea the Kim Kardashian perfume is a dupe for Gucci Bloom. I honestly never even thought of it. So this was news to me. But I do have a question. Have you ever thought of doing a video on your perfumes from Zara? You can talk about the notes, sillage and longevity. I have thought of buying Wonder Rose, Ebony Wood and I think the other one is Cherry Blossom from Zara. And I'd just like to know what your thoughts of them are? This was a great video and very informative. ❤
I just got Anais Anais Premier Delice and i am OBSESSED!!! I got a sample of Irresistible last year and i fell in love with it! I just could not find it here… so i had to do a comparison, and they are some similarities!!! I prefer the sweetness of Anais Anais though ❤️
What I love about dupes is that since they tend to fade quickly, I have the choice throughout the day if I want to continue smelling like that or not. I also don’t like scents to be too strong so to me a body spray or mist is perfect for me.
Shana I’m a new subbie love your videos but girl I keep wanting a hair video assuming you get it cut professionally and do the rest at home because it is gorgeous.
Love the Vibe .,,Honey 💞💞🌸💞💞 The Cacharel is in the opening a Mess .. In my humble Opinion … But the Drydown is it for me !!! I had my Eye on the Givenchy also .. maybe one Day !!! You know how that goes .. they Stay on Your freaking Mind .. until they hit the Vanity 💆🏽♀️…What a Mess .. Lord Free us !! 😅
Lalique Amethyst is really awesome. One of the best fruit perfume I ever smelled though I am not a big fan of fruit perfume. And thank you for reminding me of SJP. I love the original. I will definitely get the Lovely Sheer.
Bucheron Jaipur Bouquet is a good alternative to Alien. Not a dead on dupe, but a little greener, fresher alternative. Planning on getting that one and the Jaipur Bracelet because I don't want to go through my Alien and Pure Poison too quickly. Those two are my favorites of all time and cannot be without them in my collection! The price on them are getting really high, so need a every day option when I'm craving these perfumes.
I have Jaipur bracelet... It's smells phenomenal! Definitely need to consider Jaipur bouquet as a slight dupe for alien which is also one of my favorites.
U have saved my bucks many times & this time too... I have anais Anais L’Original for a long time, I was always double mind about buying irresistible.. Everytime i am about to buy something happens and I couldn't.. Now I know why.. Lol.. Thanks for the update
Yes I agree with you about tik tok !! And 200-300 is way off my budget!! I have a few designer perfumes I spend money on my limit ? Is 150 to 175 for a designer one. And ONLY 2 to 3 times a year! Any other time I’m a dupe gal. I have a signature fragrance for winter and summer…and that’s when I will spend up to 175. And maybe Christmas for myself ha. I’ve really been enjoying Alhambra and Paris corner ! Great dupes and some Zara
I’ll definitely pick up a few of those dupes- I’m on a low income so can’t afford those designer fragrance price tags. I think Delina smells like the original Chloe (the one with the metal lid that tarnishes)
Hi beautiful lady! 💕 just wanted to say I love your channel and for some reason your videos are calming. I have a list of your recommendations in my notes lol
I went to Victoria Secret Outlet, not regular store, and they had Harvest Moon Gaze body mist. I have to stay it is indeed pretty close to YSL perfume.😍
Nice dupe video!! I also agree with Love Anne being a dupe for the one. I have the one l'eau and needed to get rid of some things so I gave it to my sister since its was so similar to the one, and she likes it. I agree it's a bit fresher. And I have not tried the VS one you compared to libre but many have said Guess seductive smells like libre. I don't agree but I really ended up liking Guess seductive. To me it smells better than libre but just because its more my tastes even though I still like libre. I still need to see if seductive lasts though. I ended up going back to burlington and buying a back up since they had so many. And I agree w/the FB comparison w/sensual amber. Great dupes💕
I just sprayed Perfect - like it but it doesn’t really last on me. Have you tried Perfect Intense? I actually really like it and it lasts. I’ve been wanting Burberry Her elixir but it’s too new to be on sale. I need a dupe. I guess I prefer this to Libra - that smells weird on me - I can’t decide if it smells good or bad - that never happens. My favorite perfume of all time is discontinued - AE Vintage - brings back great memories and it smells so good - I’m not good at describing scents but it doesn’t seem citrusy to me and I think orange is a top note. More of a winter cozy smell to be honest. Have you heard if Philosophy Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere is a dupe for anything? The regular fresh cream smells sour on me.
Hi my name is camila I just want to let know I have a dupe for alien mugler . I have both they're identical twins Ajmal sacrifice for her perfume you should try it.
I love sensual Amber from Bath and Body Works. If you layer it with a warm sugar vanilla lotion first, yes definitely smells like Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb.
Have you tried any of the FM World perfumes? They are made with the same perfume oils as many designer and niche houses use from the Dromm Factory in Germany. I’d love to send you a few to review. Great way to smell exactly like the high end versions without that price tag.
Great lineup of dupes. Love this video as I do all of your videos. Actually, Amethyst is an exact dupe for a throwback fragrance I wore as a college student in the late 80's early 90's. It took me days to figure out why it smelled so familiar....then I got it! The much beloved and discontinued cult fragrance oil by The Body Shop: Dewberry. Yessss!!! I almost could not believe it and I'm pretty blown away that PdM has a fragrance that smells this way. I don't really wear it, but I won't declutter it, either. I love to smell it and remember carefree college days--hanging out in Soho and going to The Body Shop to grab my oils: White Musk and Dewberry! PS: I love the Sensual Amber for Flowerbomb dupe! Spot on!! Same scent profile. Kim Kardashian also smells like the original Marc Jacobs and Honore by Amouage.
I would be thankful for a video that you recommend a blind buys, where i live you can't find a lot of perfumes in stores so i have to buy it online, i think im gonna look into Zara perfumes i was worried about the lasting, i don't like perfumes that don't last on for more than at least 5 hours.
Love me some good dupes! Especially for that givenchy fragrance I had it in my cart may times but it's so pricey! Can't wait to see what the alien dupe is :)
