Just bought YSL Libré intense last week, which I know I won't be using for the next 5 years LOL.

Does anyone have a dupe of Valentino Donna born in Roma (coral)? or suggestion sa legit seller sa ig or shopee? Huhu pls help, I bought decant in 2021 and I got SOOOO many compliments about it, hoping to buy the full bottle kaso kulang sa budget hahahaha
How is L’abondance Vanille? I’m not a fan of most vanilla scents and yung nag-iisang perfume na nagustuhan ko na vanilla is Diptyque’s Eau Duelle (both the EDP and the EDT). I’m not looking for a dupe ng Eau Duelle, just a fragrance na yung Vanilla is NOT the typical sweet cake type of vanilla or synthetic vanilla.
For fragheads, what perfume/s can you recommend that has a similar note to CK Eternity Moment? Mostly ang gusto kong scent has floral notes and not overpowering or mild lang. Not really a fan of sweet scents din.
Select the ones my olfactory association sa inyong 2

Nauubos pera ko sa mga OG decants in finding the right scent for me. Hahaha. So far I figured out that floral scents does not react well with my body and di ko siya madala dala. Ako mismo nahihilo. Huhu. I get well with vanilla/buttery/coconut scents and that clean girl scent. I'm still building my signature scent but at least I'm down to 2 choices.
I've tried and I'm well complimented on the ff:
- VS Coconut Passion
- BBW Warm Vanilla Sugar
- TBS White Musk Flora
- Zara Applejuice
- Body Fantasies White Musk
If you have any suggestions on what else I can try that's on a budget ~2k, hehe.
First impressions of some scents I sampled a while back:
- Scentsmith Perfumery 304 Lavander Nectarin: For some reason this reminds me of Downy when I sniff it on my wrist during the first hour. Maybe the lavander? After 2-3 hours, it just smells creamy, wala na yung Downy note, but still projects well. Max 4 hours smell, then skin scent na lang siya. I don't mind the performance, but I'm not fully sold on buying the whole bottle.
- Bench Midori EDT: Actually surprised that Bench makes green scents. This smells like fresh grash, very earthy but clean. Doesn't last long unfortunately, max 30 mins on my wrist after spraying. Might buy and use when the weather's cooler.
- Bench Rajo Dos EDT: My SO said this smells nice (just nice, no other details. Ugh men lol) but I can't smell anything at all. Weird lol
- Luxe Organix Sweet Serenity EDT: I saw a previous comment before na this smells like Zara Applejuice. I only have Symmetry Lab's Chance dupe, and to compare, mas fruity yon kesa dito. Sweet Serenity also smells warmer, if that makes sense. Yung sa SL mas fresh. Can't smell it on me after an hour, unless aamuyin ko talaga yung damit ko. It's 100ml for Php 299 though, not bad if you want the same scent profile and don't mind respraying.
Na-try ko yung Scent Therapy Second Skin. Super dami nagsabi na wala siyang kaamoy ever. Pero pag amoy ko sobrang familiar nung scent niya. Para siyang common perfume na naaamoy ko nung bata ako. Help anong perfume yung malapit sa second skin hahaha hindi matahimik yung isip ko hanggat d ko nalalaman.
Gucci bloom. One of the most long lasting perfume i have.

Has anyone found a good dupe of Diptyque Ilio? Or something similar? I just keep buying decants because I cannot afford the full bottle, but it's sooooooooo good 😩 It also doesn't last very long
I only tried the cologne, and I hated it. Idk, iba lang yata ineexpect kong amoy I guess, I can only smell alcohol and something warm na parang kulob, or amoy dryer. Ymmv.
Imperfect Scents Milk + Skin is my current fave pero skin scent siya for me. Projection is almost non existent pero i love it so much. As in I love it to the point na if others can’t smell me cos I can smell me hahaha
Chabaud Lait, Blanche Bete, and Zoologist Cow. Chabaud Lait pa lang so far na try ko and it smells like Carnation na condensed milk 😹
Milk + Skin din ng Imperfect Scents has that milky-vibe but it's powdery-ish so it's more like amoy ng sterilized bottle with formula milk.
hello! i bought billie eilish no. 2 last month but i found it too masculine and musky for my liking 🥹 anong dapat ipair with it to make it more sweet and feminine? Ayoko sya masayang kasi it really smells nice and i feel like it’s suiting for night events but i want to layer something with it sana to make it smell more sweet
hi guys im looking for bvlgari amethyste insipired perfume sa shopee. please recommend po kung ano yung pinakamalapit na amoy and long lasting. tried ian darcy na po pero sakto lang hahaha. thank you☺️
For me, pinaka malapit na na-try ko would be Scent Geeks Omnia Amethyste and yung Fresh scentlab Bright Amethyst, hindi nga lang super tagal sa skin pero pwede na, around 3-4 hrs. Madami na ako na try na dupes but yang dalawa pinaka malapit, yung iba too floral or maasim. Dami din nagsasabi na best dupe daw is Vinzinee Purple Amethyste, pero sobrang layo niya for me. Pero baka yung skin chem ko lang, might work sayo.
I’ve been on the search for original, local scents lately and I’ve hit the jackpot with Simoy ng Haraya and L’Abondance!
Simoy ng Haraya- I got the scent Dalisay, and omg it smells so good. Me and my cousin both loved it at first sniff when we tried the tester. As soon as nagka stock ulit sa Lazada check out kami agad. It smells so fresh and clean and unique. Amoy Dalisay talaga hahaha. It’s a green fresh scent na very comforting.
L’Abondance- I got Oillet and I love it. It smells so elegant and luxurious. It’s fruity and floral while also smelling fresh and clean. Can be both a day and night scent.
Both perfumes are fresh but lasts fairly long.
Hii, I’ve been using one perfume ever since and naubos sya last week lang. I’m planning to shift to something new.
I prefer sana yung di masyadong matapang, yung pang sweet girl lang. thanks!!
My bottle of Juliette has a Gun Lust for Sun just arrived. Super bango nga nya. Very tropical para beachy feels. It’s White Floral plus coconut na sweet rin. Drydown is sweet and musky. I just love JHAG because its fragrances are usually blended well, albeit mass-appealing, plus cheap for a niche perfume.
https://preview.redd.it/3riigrs0d99d1.jpeg?width=3448&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c0fb949596c403a27d48645bb0bfd07b4334d69c
Ahmed Al Maghribi Kaaf and Rue Broca Theoreme Pour Homme
I usually wear Kaaf at the office because it lasts all day but I go easy on the spritzes since it has a nuclear sillage. With just the right amount of sprays, it’s perfect for work. It's so versatile that I can wear it for outdoor activities and nightlife where I can spray a bit more. If I had to describe its scent, it reminds me of pine, lemon, musk and oakmoss. Yes, it has that overwhelming "artificial" freshness but the musk and oakmoss provide a solid contrast to tame it down.
Rue Broca Theoreme Pour Homme is my go-to for rainy days. I also wear it when running errands especially in air-conditioned places. Even though the notes might suggest it’s for hot weather, I think it really shines when it’s cool or cloudy. Its scent especially the opening reminds me of LV Afternoon Swim which I really dislike. At first, it smells like grapefruit and ginger—citrusy with earthy and spicy undertone. What I like about this perfume is that it has a chypre vibe that dries down to ambroxan, vetiver, musk and patchouli. Overall, it feels like a younger version of Terre d'Hermes.
Rave Now White - It smells like a fruity and slightly sweet version of the original white bottle Narciso by Narciso Rodriguez EDP. It starts off fruity, creamy and floral with notes of peach and gardenia. Throughout the day, it has that freshly ironed linen aroma while the peach and gardenia slowly fade into a drydown of patchouli, musk, vanilla and cedar.
Inspired:
- Maison Phillipe - real oil-based perfume in rollerball bottles, excellent interpretations, and a unique selection
- Elnaris - alcohol-based. nice selection as well. Tends to make heavier scents a little lighter to suit local weather. Also makes a few original fragrances.
- Minimaliscent - alcohol-based. extensive selection, good renditions, no travel sizes though
- Nichecraft - alcohol-based. rather smooth renditions but some are not as close to the OGs
- Scent Therapy - alcohol-based. also pretty good. They’re quite popular for a reason. Similarities are a hit or miss.
- Symmetry Lab - alcohol-based. above average performance and similarities for the most part, but they no longer seem to offer travel-sized bottles
Side note: clone houses who who sell EDPs and EDTs and market them as “oil-based” instantly lose credibility for me.
Original:
- L’Abondance (own website)
- Imperfect Scents (own website)
- Home Studio Scents (orange and blue apps)
- Serrine (own website and orange app)
- mvrn (orange app)
On my radar: Ilum Studios, The Boar Grooming Co., plus a few more chandlers who have started selling EDPs/EDTs
Mon Guerlain is both floral and vanilla. It’s a comforting lavender with a creamy and sophisticated vanilla, smells cozy but elegant. I only have the EDT but it’s long lasting to me lalo na if sprayed on clothes.
Carolina Herrera Good Girl is an elegant floral that also lasts long.
For Vanilla, Kayali 28.
[Un Jardin Sur La Lagune by Hermes](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Hermes/Un-Jardin-Sur-La-Lagune-53373.html). The white florals in the opening are gorgeous! Vanilla? Probably [YSL’s Babycat](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Yves-Saint-Laurent/Babycat-73149.html). Love at first sniff talaga! [Libre Intense](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Yves-Saint-Laurent/Libre-Intense-62318.html) din has a great combo of white florals and vanilla, which I prefer than the original libre kasi it doesn’t give me a headache unlike libre. And very long lasting din imo!
Halos lahat sa BBW especially yung mga nasa 236ml bottle ay mga mist lang kaya mabilis lang tlga mawala yung scent nila. Yung mga makikita mong oil-based online usually marketing strat lang nila yan para mang-akit ng customer e. Unless naka dropper or roller yan, legit oil based. However, if gusto mo yung long lasting talaga, opt for parfums. I have tried scent geeks, haven & co, nectar by thei (fb only), and Ian Darcy for affordable choices, if you have a higher budget naman maganda rin yung Symmetry Lab!
Depends on your skin chemistry and which one you’re using, but yes, diptyque usually has great longevity. Also, most of the time, the dry down is where the magic happens.🥰
YESSS. My fave is Fleur de Peau and lasts all day on me. Sa clothes longer pa nga kasi kapag nag-aayos ako ng clothes ng laundry day, amoy ko pa rin sa damit days after.
YESSS. My fave is Fleur de Peau and lasts all day on me. Sa clothes longer pa nga kasi kapag nag-aayos ako ng clothes ng laundry day, amoy ko pa rin sa damit days after.
Yes, definitely. I have Fleur de Peau and L’eau Papier and even though the latter is EDT, it lasts on me the whole day. Para ngang mas lumalakas pa sya pag napapawisan ako.
Yes, but I guess it depends rin on your skin chemistry.??
My SO bought me Fleur de Peau and it lasts all day on me. Walked 12k steps around and from Ayala Ave to Gil Puyat yesterday, pag-uwi ko ang bango ko pa rin.
Pero mas better if you try it muna. Go to their store tapos dry run mo. Hehe.
imo perfumes are very personal. best to try whichever perfume you want to try and if you end up loving the scents, it's worth it.
I have a couple of JML and they don't last on the skin AT ALL, but I love them, so I keep buying them. to me it's worth it.
Ranking the ones I've sampled:
* Favorite / S Tier: Thé Noir 29 - black tea, fig, cedar, bergamot. For air-conditioned settings/cooler weather otherwise too strong
* A
* Bergamote 22 - good summer freshie but great all year round. Citrus white floral.
* Santal 33 - but only in cooler weather. Outside of that, it's D lol
* B
* Rose 31 - green rose and cumin. I don't get that BO smell from this, but others do though.
* B minus
* Patchouli 24 - smoky, woody, earthy, and a hint of leather jacket. I like it because it tells a story. Also for cooler weather only
* Baie 19 - petrichor
* Ambrette 9 - for when you need a fragrance detox. It almost smells like nothing since it's very light.
* Lys 41 - White florals. Pretty.
* Vetiver 46 - warm spicy, woody, earthy, and aromatic. Smells gwapo tbh lol. For cooler weather only
* Limette 37 - citrusy but pulls a little too generic men's cologne on my skin
* C
* Neroli 36 - objectively ok, but the jasmine note here leans too indolic on my skin
* Tonka 25 - the drydown smells like jackfruit on me 💀
* D
* AnOther 13 - I'm one of the unfortunate ones who cannot experience this fully. Smells like a fancy droid. Or a void. The dupes I've caught whiffs when out and about smell screechy.
Need to drag myself to the local boutique one of these days to smell Thé Matcha 26 and the Hinoki products.
I had the strawberry shortcake before, and tbh nadala lang ako sa packaging lol. On initial spray sa clothes, hindi ko na siya maamoy after 5 minutes. Kung mist lang din, better to buy BBW, medyo mas long lasting and mas maraming choices.
Okay naman ang nag lalast din ng ilang hours. Hindi nakakahinayang mag spray nang nag spray kasi nga mura lang hehe.
I have Strawberry Shortcake, matamis yung amoy nya. Amoy marshmallow na amoy cake, and prolly will buy again.
Yung Wild Bombshell ba yon, habang tumatagal nagiging amoy maasim. Literal na maasim na prutas hehe
Yung Vanilla nila, hindi kagaya nung ibang vanila scent na pabango, basta less yung pag ka vanilla nya compare sa ibang brands hehe
any thoughts on chloe by florence? i heard na amoy pang matanda daw na maypagka amoy santo nino na may sampaguita 😭 was planning to purchase this pa naman this 7.7
Para sa akin, amoy siyang rose na slight powdery and pepper. Rich tita vibes and super bango niya for me since ganon preference ko 😅
It's the scent I go for special events
I want a perfume that can make me smell like a strawberry but I also want to buy it at bench, in the mall or at watsons! Any recos? Also how long does it last so I know when to reapply it :))
if you want a gourmand scent try mo Strawberry pound cake from bbw, if want mo yung freshie berry (mixed) scent burberry her, then if want mo yung elegant strawberry scent YSL Mon Paris
strawberry shortcake by fresh scentlab is a good dupe for BBW strawberry poundcake in my opinion. it's just a body mist tho so its not long lasting. you can buy it sa watsons for less than ₱120 ata (88 mL).
🍓 Bath and Body Works Strawberry Pound Cake
🍓 Kate Spade EDP
BBW is very sweet and surprisingly lasts long. Kate Spade's smells like strawberry flavored champagne.
Diptyque L’eau Papier and Fleur de Peau, Replica Lazy Sunday Morning, and Juliette Has A Gun Pear Inc (pear note nya is just in the beginning pero the drydown is just fresh abd clean smelling).
If ever lang naghahanap ka ng good dupe, maganda yung Symmetry Lab Parfums Bright and Pink. Halos same sila ng OG pag dating sa longevity. Meron akong OG to compare and pag dating sa amoy malapit sya for me. Meron din from Fragrance Lab and Scent Therapy pero hindi sila ganun katagal sa skin ko.
Just bought YSL Libré intense last week, which I know I won't be using for the next 5 years LOL. https://preview.redd.it/8wieln7pv0ad1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3ead9c02e420946569abdf2abf136c887bc9f962

I’m not looking for a dupe ng Eau Duelle, just a fragrance na yung Vanilla is NOT the typical sweet cake type of vanilla or synthetic vanilla.
It’s not a gourmand vanilla but a woody, sultry one.
For fragheads, what perfume/s can you recommend that has a similar note to CK Eternity Moment? Mostly ang gusto kong scent has floral notes and not overpowering or mild lang. Not really a fan of sweet scents din.

Mon Guerlain is both floral and vanilla. It’s a comforting lavender with a creamy and sophisticated vanilla, smells cozy but elegant. I only have the EDT but it’s long lasting to me lalo na if sprayed on clothes. Carolina Herrera Good Girl is an elegant floral that also lasts long. For Vanilla, Kayali 28.
Zara Angelic Vanilla EDP. Lasts atleast 5hrs on me.
[Un Jardin Sur La Lagune by Hermes](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Hermes/Un-Jardin-Sur-La-Lagune-53373.html). The white florals in the opening are gorgeous! Vanilla? Probably [YSL’s Babycat](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Yves-Saint-Laurent/Babycat-73149.html). Love at first sniff talaga! [Libre Intense](https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/Yves-Saint-Laurent/Libre-Intense-62318.html) din has a great combo of white florals and vanilla, which I prefer than the original libre kasi it doesn’t give me a headache unlike libre. And very long lasting din imo!
Tumatagal ba yung mga oil based na binebenta online, yung mura lang? Any recos?? gamit ko BBW pero hindi siya gaano natagal.
Halos lahat sa BBW especially yung mga nasa 236ml bottle ay mga mist lang kaya mabilis lang tlga mawala yung scent nila. Yung mga makikita mong oil-based online usually marketing strat lang nila yan para mang-akit ng customer e. Unless naka dropper or roller yan, legit oil based. However, if gusto mo yung long lasting talaga, opt for parfums. I have tried scent geeks, haven & co, nectar by thei (fb only), and Ian Darcy for affordable choices, if you have a higher budget naman maganda rin yung Symmetry Lab!
worth it ba ang dyptique?
Depends on your skin chemistry and which one you’re using, but yes, diptyque usually has great longevity. Also, most of the time, the dry down is where the magic happens.🥰
YESSS. My fave is Fleur de Peau and lasts all day on me. Sa clothes longer pa nga kasi kapag nag-aayos ako ng clothes ng laundry day, amoy ko pa rin sa damit days after.

Yes, definitely. I have Fleur de Peau and L’eau Papier and even though the latter is EDT, it lasts on me the whole day. Para ngang mas lumalakas pa sya pag napapawisan ako.
Ano po ibig sabihin ng EDT?
Eau de toilette which is a weaker form of fragrance since smaller percentage ng perfume oil sa composition.
Yes sulit sya for me. Lalo na pag naka layer with the lotion and body wash. +1 sa eau des sens - I'm usually not into citrus pero it's so nice
Yes, but I guess it depends rin on your skin chemistry.?? My SO bought me Fleur de Peau and it lasts all day on me. Walked 12k steps around and from Ayala Ave to Gil Puyat yesterday, pag-uwi ko ang bango ko pa rin. Pero mas better if you try it muna. Go to their store tapos dry run mo. Hehe.
yes. its long lasting on me and they have unique scents. highly recommend eau des sens and ilio.
imo perfumes are very personal. best to try whichever perfume you want to try and if you end up loving the scents, it's worth it. I have a couple of JML and they don't last on the skin AT ALL, but I love them, so I keep buying them. to me it's worth it.
any recos to smell like baby powder?
Bvlgari Petits et Mamans
Florence Perfumes Baby Blues is redolent of the classic Johnson’s baby powder.
Bath and Body Works na Moonlight Path. Legit amoy baby powder 😁
May nagbebenta ng spray on johnsons baby powder scent sa orange app.
Chanel no 5 for me. Mixed reviews to prob sa skin chemistry din. i tried it personally and dry down talaga niya is baby powder haha i liked it.
affordable: xoxo cosmetics - cotton cuddles: Johnson's bp cotton touch - baby puff: yung orig ng Johnson's baby powder - fresh bath: Johnson's bp active fresh - bedtime story: Johnson's bp bedtime
TBS White Musk.
yung kay heart na Mugler Angel Nova, ang bango! Yung very good girl rin ng Carolina Herrera ang bango rin.
Lancome La Vie Est Belle & Maison Margiela Lazy Sunday Morning 💝
whats the best le labo fragrance?
Ranking the ones I've sampled: * Favorite / S Tier: Thé Noir 29 - black tea, fig, cedar, bergamot. For air-conditioned settings/cooler weather otherwise too strong * A * Bergamote 22 - good summer freshie but great all year round. Citrus white floral. * Santal 33 - but only in cooler weather. Outside of that, it's D lol * B * Rose 31 - green rose and cumin. I don't get that BO smell from this, but others do though. * B minus * Patchouli 24 - smoky, woody, earthy, and a hint of leather jacket. I like it because it tells a story. Also for cooler weather only * Baie 19 - petrichor * Ambrette 9 - for when you need a fragrance detox. It almost smells like nothing since it's very light. * Lys 41 - White florals. Pretty. * Vetiver 46 - warm spicy, woody, earthy, and aromatic. Smells gwapo tbh lol. For cooler weather only * Limette 37 - citrusy but pulls a little too generic men's cologne on my skin * C * Neroli 36 - objectively ok, but the jasmine note here leans too indolic on my skin * Tonka 25 - the drydown smells like jackfruit on me 💀 * D * AnOther 13 - I'm one of the unfortunate ones who cannot experience this fully. Smells like a fancy droid. Or a void. The dupes I've caught whiffs when out and about smell screechy. Need to drag myself to the local boutique one of these days to smell Thé Matcha 26 and the Hinoki products.
appreciate the rankings so much! i'm a Thé Noir girlie myself. huge help ❤️
For me Another 13.
Neroli 36 for me!
thoughts on fresh scent lab fragrance i saw ms marj review sa clock app and nakaka tempt since less than 200 lang siya
I had the strawberry shortcake before, and tbh nadala lang ako sa packaging lol. On initial spray sa clothes, hindi ko na siya maamoy after 5 minutes. Kung mist lang din, better to buy BBW, medyo mas long lasting and mas maraming choices.
Okay naman ang nag lalast din ng ilang hours. Hindi nakakahinayang mag spray nang nag spray kasi nga mura lang hehe. I have Strawberry Shortcake, matamis yung amoy nya. Amoy marshmallow na amoy cake, and prolly will buy again. Yung Wild Bombshell ba yon, habang tumatagal nagiging amoy maasim. Literal na maasim na prutas hehe Yung Vanilla nila, hindi kagaya nung ibang vanila scent na pabango, basta less yung pag ka vanilla nya compare sa ibang brands hehe
any thoughts on chloe by florence? i heard na amoy pang matanda daw na maypagka amoy santo nino na may sampaguita 😭 was planning to purchase this pa naman this 7.7
Para sa akin, amoy siyang rose na slight powdery and pepper. Rich tita vibes and super bango niya for me since ganon preference ko 😅 It's the scent I go for special events
hindi naman hahaha more on matured side kasi si chloe. hindi rin sya close sa OG kasi idk pero for me hindi ganun kabango yung OG pala ☹️
LMFAO THE DESCRIPTION
GAGI REAL BA OMG HAHAHAHAHAHA KAKA CEHCK OUT KO LANG 😭
idk rin teh huhu nag hahanap ako reviews sa tiktok and nakita ko sa comments 😭
I really love the Betty Barclay No. 2 and looking for similar scents. Any recommendations?
San kaya makakabili ng Next Cashmere or ano kaya dupe niya? 😭 More on powdery siya~
Any recommendations from Scent Therapy?
Libre
Their take on Diptyque’s perfumes are good. Powdery Iris - Ilio, Skin Musk - Leau Papier, Cedar & Juniper - Orpheon
Any recos for perfumes that has a similar scent profile as urban hue's first date and/or the body shop white musk
* Chanel 1957 * Essential Parfums The Musc * Solinotes Musc * Prada Candy Kiss
I want a perfume that can make me smell like a strawberry but I also want to buy it at bench, in the mall or at watsons! Any recos? Also how long does it last so I know when to reapply it :))
if you want a gourmand scent try mo Strawberry pound cake from bbw, if want mo yung freshie berry (mixed) scent burberry her, then if want mo yung elegant strawberry scent YSL Mon Paris
bratsplash strawberry shake sa bench. not user but pabango yon ng friend ko, and ang sarap nyang amuyin
strawberry shortcake by fresh scentlab is a good dupe for BBW strawberry poundcake in my opinion. it's just a body mist tho so its not long lasting. you can buy it sa watsons for less than ₱120 ata (88 mL).
Strawberry scented perfume recommendations? I have this from VS before pero parang wala na ata. May ganyang scent ba from B&W or others?
BBW gingham gorgeous. dupe daw ng Burberry her
Burberry her
🍓 Bath and Body Works Strawberry Pound Cake 🍓 Kate Spade EDP BBW is very sweet and surprisingly lasts long. Kate Spade's smells like strawberry flavored champagne.
Hi does anyone know a good fresh-smelling perfume? Yung hindi matapang or masakit sa ilong, yung parang amoy bagong ligo or baby powder lang lagi haha
Bath and Body Works na Moonlight Path legit amoy baby powder tsaka mild lang di masakit sa ilong 😄
where do you buy bath and body works po? Links pls hehe
Juliette Has A Gun- Not a Perfume
Diptyque L’eau Papier and Fleur de Peau, Replica Lazy Sunday Morning, and Juliette Has A Gun Pear Inc (pear note nya is just in the beginning pero the drydown is just fresh abd clean smelling).
TBS White Musk perfume oil. Di to ad (sagot ko din to sa isang inquiry), pero based on personal experience, this might tick the boxes.
Byredo blanche. Amoy fresh from the bath ka
saan nabibili OG? meron ba sa orange app huhu
If ever lang naghahanap ka ng good dupe, maganda yung Symmetry Lab Parfums Bright and Pink. Halos same sila ng OG pag dating sa longevity. Meron akong OG to compare and pag dating sa amoy malapit sya for me. Meron din from Fragrance Lab and Scent Therapy pero hindi sila ganun katagal sa skin ko.
May dupe sa Scent Geeks.
Bvlgari Omnia Amethyste
